Lord: Exiled by Stepmother, I'll Rule the World Anyway

At night, in a small hidden iron mine.

"Hoho~"

A rotten corpse with shackles on its body rushed toward Field with a strange scream.

"Pfft~"

Field drew out the iris sword and stepped closer to the corpse. With the power of his shoulders and elbows, the sword buzzed out.

There is no feeling of obstruction at all, it is as easy as cutting into soft tofu.

The sword light slashed into the cheek of the rotten corpse, cutting off his entire lower jaw. The broken teeth fell to the ground. The rotten corpse's dirty blood spilled out as if it was free of money. Then it fell to the ground, making a horrible ghostly cry. , Field stepped forward and stepped on the corpse's body, then added a sword blow to kill it.

"Huh, we have almost killed all the rotting corpses in the mine. They must have been criminals before they corrupted. This is not far from the big winery. From now on, if the territory extends over here, we can mine."

Shaking his hands that were shaking slightly due to excessive exertion, Field turned his head and glanced at the twelve uniformly dressed corpses behind him, feeling full of accomplishment.

"Yes, but most of the criminals in the Night Command have been sent to the front line as cannon fodder to fight against the orcs. There are not many left here. By the way, have you adapted to the power of fighting spirit?" Rosaria was in a box beside her. After rummaging for a while, he complained, "It would be great if the soldiers could come to help. I actually have to find something myself."

The cold blood flowed over the sword body and down the long sword. Field felt that his right hand became sticky and slippery, which was very uncomfortable.

"I'm almost used to it. Dou Qi has greatly enhanced my strength and speed. If I have the Dou Qi secret book, I can practice faster."

Rosaria patted the dust on her hands, shook her head and said thoughtfully: "There is no rush about the secret book. Your talent should not be wasted on fighting spirit. We should build the territory well. The prosperity of the territory will promote the selection of gods." Those who advance.”

"In addition, most of the fighting spirit secrets come from the Chosen Ones, which is nothing special. You can contract the talents of different Chosen Gods, which I have never seen before. Contracting more Chosen Ones will be of greater help to you. "

"You are right, fighting is not suitable for a lord, as long as he has the ability to protect himself."

Field would not leave a good lord unused and play Berserker. What will the girls do if they lose their virginity?

"Clang, clang, clang! Found it!" Rosaria happily showed off the key in her hand, the simple little key kept dangling.

"What is this?" Field's eyes lit up.

With Rosalia, a native noble, the Night Territory had few secrets.

This hidden mine cannot be found marked on the maps sold in the market. I can't even see it on my own mini map. Rosalía, on the other hand, was very familiar with the mines.

"You will be better off if you come with me." Rosaria covered her mouth and snickered, "You will definitely be happy."

"It's good? It's a new game."

"Come on, it's more exciting than a game."

The two swerved in the gray fog and finally stopped in a hunter's cabin. After Rosalía entered the house, she used her sword to smash open the floor, revealing the iron cellar door underneath.

"Hehe, inside is the dowry that I secretly saved!" Rosaria was so proud, "I have saved it for a long time. My mother, a stingy woman, in order to protect her treasure, does not allow this lady to contact men or get married. There were even plans to send me to a monastery.”

Field was shocked and stared straight at the little Loli in front of him: "Can I know this?"

Similar to the East, women in this world need a dowry to get married. The dowry is not limited to huge amounts of money or servants. Some generous nobles will even use cities and territories as dowries. It is troublesome when you encounter stingy family members. For example, the king of Franconia has fertile land and countless gold, but in order to save dowry money, he sent all his daughters to a monastery to become a monk.

"Of course you can know."

Like a cheerful magpie, Rosalia quickly slipped down: "My dowry is a first-order divine...artifact?"

The basement is very humid, and from time to time there is unpleasant smell of dirty water dripping down, hitting the slightly decayed golden treasure chest. On the display shelf in the middle of the basement, there is a fine crystal cup, but it does not have the luster of an artifact, but has cracks. .

"It's broken." Rosalia held it in for a long time, holding the cup with trembling hands, tears falling from the corners of her eyes, "It's only been eleven years, and its power has completely dissipated."

As a type of energy, divine power still cannot escape loss. Without the support of the Chosen One, the artifact will gradually degrade and eventually turn into dust.

"A flawless creation, you are worthy of being the young lady of the Xingye family. Your vision is perfect." Field touched the little Loli's head to comfort her.

Seeing that Rosaria was still silent, Field felt heartbroken: "Isn't there another box of treasures? If you want artifacts, I will buy them for you in the future, and you can save them again."

"Idiot, idiot, who am I saving my dowry for? It's not all your property."

Rosalía hit her with a small pink fist. After she calmed down, she wiped her tears and said, "Don't touch that box. That's a Mimic. It can catch people and let her give birth to babies. I don't know how. A year has passed and he is still dead."

God damn Mimic!

"Pfft~" Field didn't hold back, "Why would Mao put such a perverted thing in the house?"

"Beware of thieves." After putting away the damaged crystal cup, Rosalía dug a hole in the corner and took out a key, but she was obviously not as excited as before: "I still have some private money, not much. Let’s go take a look.”

Field was curious: "About how many?"

"More than a thousand gold coins, and some jewelry, if no one finds it."

ox!

Field is ashamed that a little girl can save so much wealth and still have money to spend after ten years of death. When I traveled back in time, I was penniless.

"It's a pity that the Xingye family's wealth, which has been managed for generations, has been taken away by others." Rosalia said seriously.

"What's going on? In fact, I am very confused about this question. Why didn't you leave the Northern Province in the first place? As nobles, you didn't know about the news of the death haze released by the empire?"

This was outrageous, and Field was puzzled.

"Yes, this matter is very strange. Before the gray fog broke out, my mother, Ms. Sophia, along with the family's chosen ones, secretly packed away all the wealth, artifacts and magic potion formulas in the family treasury. Even I don’t know where it went.”

"The war was in full swing. The orcs broke through seventeen fortresses in three days. Even the main city in the center of the North, Lionheart City, was bloodbathed. There were as many as 20 fallen chosen ones. But the major families didn't even have basic reactions. nothing."

"I couldn't contact my mother, and the Night Territory didn't have a fortress. In desperation, I had no choice but to shrink the defense line and send out scouts in an attempt to send all the people in the Territory to Starry Night City for refuge."
