Knight of the Light

Friedman is not the master of entrepreneurship like Zhou Qingfeng, and has a lot of constraints in dealing with affairs. He must spend more energy to balance the internal relations of his own forces, and even have to do something that obviously damages the long-term interests of the family.

However, the upcoming war is an excellent opportunity. The internal contradictions are resolved externally, a historically unsatisfactory method. As long as you win, you can win prestige and eliminate dissidents.

After listening to the report from the housekeeper, Friedman was quite interested and made some casual decisions.

As a patriarch, we must stand at a higher level. In the past six months, he realized that his own technology and economy could not suppress his opponent.

If you can’t keep up, you can’t keep up. Before Hanfengcheng becomes invincible, repression by force is the only chance to win.

After all, in alien worlds, axioms are laid by force.

Friedman only left for half an hour in the study. He walked all the way in the city's main palace, followed the screen back, and walked alone into the underground chamber of the palace, an area enclosed by thick stone doors,

It's still cold outside the closet. Can be close to the secret room, the feeling of warmth and coldness will disappear. It seems that people's ability to perceive is deprived, they can't hear sound, they lose their sense of space, they seem to have their heads and feet upside down, and even open their eyes as blind.

People with poor strength will stand in a daze outside the stone gate forever. His consciousness was drawn into the infinite void, in chaos, until his thoughts dried up and died.

Friedman must also forcibly improve his mental defense and add a ‘protection against evil’ spell to himself. He pressed his hand against the stone gate and murmured with his head down.

The stone gate glowed like a cobweb and slowly enveloped all around until it swallowed Friedman. His patriarch passed through the stone gate, but he must be more careful, gather his whole spirit, and advance slowly step by step.

Behind the stone door is a broken place, collapsed stone pillars, decaying door frames. The ground cracked with deep ravines, leading directly to a set of steps in front.

The steps are covered with gravel and look closely at a statue. The face of the statue is no longer clear, leaving only a few large pieces that split and collapsed. These remnants also retain the intimidating breath of the statue's originally twisted limbs and claws.

This underground space has a pale green strange light, illuminating the ruins and leading Friedman to the stone steps. A few steps further, behind the stone steps are huge blocks of ice five to six meters high.

The ice block is the center of the entire underground ruin. It is transparent and exudes an invisible deterrent field. Friedman must accept a will check every step forward, and if he fails, he will stay in place for a few seconds, unable to move.

Fortunately, this is not a state of battle. Otherwise, the dull state is enough to make Friedman die a dozen times. But he didn't dare to go any further than ten meters away.

A monster was frozen in the ice, a lower body with a green scale giant snake, but the upper body was a six-armed snake demon of a voluptuous woman. It spreads its six arms in a greasy posture, clenches different weapons, and pounces forward.

The scales constitute the armor of the demon and also cover its surface. It wears bracelets with high-quality gemstones on each hand, and jewels with great power are also hung on the chest and earlobe. The swords, axes, hammers, and forks in his hands are magic equipment.

The reason why Banshee Castle is called Banshee comes from this snake demon. Its body is in the abyss, and it can reach the fifteenth level with just one projection.

Banshee Castle was originally a place where the six-armed snake demon bewitched mortal worship. The ancestors of the Butchi family destroyed this place, but did not completely destroy the snake demon projection, only sealed it.

When Friedman appeared, the seal's serpent's posture could not move, but his eyes circulated, as if the sharp blade pierced, bringing a strong heartbeat.

The snake is laughing, taunting, watching the prey slowly approaching. It knows that there will be such a day after all, the family that seals itself will bow its head to beg for itself, because the descendants of heroes can easily become bears.

Friedman could feel this ruthless taunt. He stood still for a long time in front of the frozen serpent, wondering how his ancestors defeated this terrible demon in that time, and he was fascinated by the thought.

Today, he wants to release it.

When the Butch patriarch entered the underground chamber, the corpse-receiver who had been watched by him fell down on the street raged by the cold wind.

Two more tattered corpses came along the street. They also pushed the cart full of corpses and looked numbly at their dead companions.

The cadavers later were all young and old. The elder sighed and shouted to the young corpse recipient: "Pluck his clothes off and still wear them."

The deceased's dirty and dirty clothes were taken off, exposing the ribs and thin body. He was already frozen and had to break and crack his joints to undress.

The sleek body was thrown into the rickshaw and mixed with the bodies of several other refugees. The skin was like a bundle of dead wood. These'dry wood' will be transported outside the city, and will not be buried, just find a remote pothole and throw it away.

The old and young corpses turned back again, staggering back in the snow. They have a dedicated residence in the corner of the city. They are not alone with nobles and civilians. They are a lonely hut.

A fire pit is lit in the hut, which can avoid some wind and snow. A pot of boiling water boiled in the hanging stove of the fire pit, bubbling. People coming in pour some boiled water from the hanging stove to drink, and it is also warmer.

It is good to have a fire pond. After all, fuel costs money. Today, the fire was very special, and there were more than a dozen corpses in the house surrounded by the fire pond, listening to one of them quietly.

"Lord Hugo said that anyone who enters the territory of Hanfeng City will be protected and governed by him. Whether he is a slave, a tenant, or an apprentice, regardless of his previous status, he will arrive in Hanfeng City. Free people.

Free people enjoy the powers of migration, work, marriage, faith, etc. Lord Hugo will give any new leader a three-month basic living guarantee without any return. "

The two old and young corpses collectors had just returned, and the younger man sitting at the fire pond weakly asked, "Can we also go to the corpse collectors?"

The speaker nodded, "Yes, anyone can. I came to you from the cold wind city. But the Buchi family blocked the border and controlled the food. I couldn't find a bullock cart along the way.

Now that the weather is too cold, it is difficult to walk more than two hundred kilometers on foot. So we have to plan step by step, organize more people and raise enough food. It's best to have a big escape in spring next year. "

After a pause, the speaker sighed: "I can't guarantee that each of you will be saved, but at least give you a chance to survive. Continue to stay in Banshee Castle, at least half of you will not survive this winter.

I also took a great risk to save you. If caught by the evil dog of the Butcher family, I would die terribly. But I still came, and I hope that there are no nobles in this world. Let the nobles understand that there are people who dare to resist them. "
