The Extraordinary Earl

No matter what, the Pompeii family needs Omima's head to destroy the Qiufeng bandits and increase their reputation.

So Pompeii and his sons came, and Omima died.

This time, there were many wounded members of the Sabretooth Tiger Mercenary Group, but there were no deaths at all, so after a period of treatment, most of the knights were already alive and well.

Then the Sabretooth Tiger mercenary group cleaned up the battlefield as usual. They helped cut off the heads of thieves with bounties on them, and used methods to preserve the heads.

This thing can be taken to the Golden City in exchange for a bounty from the Orange Consul Count Libya. Pompeii and his son were lucky. The total bounty for the entire band of thieves was 80,000, and no one escaped.

There was a bounty of 80,000, plus the 10,000 gold coins reduced by the Tomahawk Knight, this time Pompeii and his son lost 8,000 gold coins.

Of course, this is only on the surface.

Because according to convention, the Saber-Tooth Tiger Mercenary Group only takes commissions, and the spoils of war belong to Pompeii and his son. So the knights of the mercenary group helped take care of the battlefield and collected weapons before they exited the main part of the castle.

Rest in a house outside the castle so that the injured knight can recover as soon as possible.

As for the things inside the main part of the castle, they belong to Pompeii and his son, and the mercenary group simply doesn't even look at them.

Therefore, Luther happily went to plunder the thieves' property. Of course, there are rewards, such as the eight clay golems in the main hall, as well as the weapons, armors, etc. left by the thieves.

However, Pompeii and his son could not take these away, so Luther invited people from the mercenary group to deliver the news, and asked Knight Ston to lead a group of guards to help carry them back.

Luther is very interested in clay golems. This kind of puppet is extremely powerful and requires high-level knights to spend time to dismantle it. It is very meaningful for territorial defense.

Although this is a big magic toy that Luther doesn't understand at all, it doesn't matter if he puts it away for now. When little Maya and Lily are trained, they can drive it.

It can be said that the strength of the territory has been greatly increased.

Of course, Luther was more interested in why Omima, the leader of the thieves group, did not retreat but fought hard when faced with a disadvantage.

Luther's intuition told him that there was a treasure.

So Luther and Old Saul happily searched the main body of the castle, looking at every room and every corner.

But what I got was simply shabby.

Several boxes of gold coins, some silver coins, and copper coins. There are also warehouses full of grain, as well as all kinds of bacon, sausages, etc.

The thieves are indeed shabby.

A powerful group of thieves must gather strong enough knights as elite thieves. Most of these knights are civilian knights.

The commoners did not have much source of income. In order to advance further on the road of knighthood, they either became adventurers, mercenaries, or thieves.

Although robbing is profitable, buying potions is more expensive, so thieves are poor.

Of course, the turnover of members of the thieves group will be relatively frequent, because if a junior knight joins the thieves group and successfully relies on the wealth obtained from robbery, and is promoted to an intermediate knight, the thief may change his name and go to make a living elsewhere.

All in all, except for a very small number of thieves, most thieves are poor. Therefore, generally there will be no powerful forces that want to attack the thieves group.

It was really hard to chew, hard bones with no meat.

If Pompei and his son were not eager to enhance the Pompei family's prestige, they would not have taken up the idea of ​​the Qiu Feng Thieves Group.

After searching every room and every corner, Pompeii and his son returned to the hall.

"As expected, the thieves are all poor people. This time our harvest is these eight clay golems. I don't know how much they are worth. Let's see if we can sell them to get some money back."

Old Sol sighed.

Although on the surface, they only lost 8,000 gold coins, Old Sol still felt distressed. That was 8,000 gold coins. According to the income level of the previous territory, it would take eight years to recover the loss.

Luther shook his head and asked, "Dad, have you discovered Mr. Wizard's laboratory and collection of books?"

"No." Old Sol shook his head and his eyes lit up.

It is impossible for a wizard to not have a laboratory or a collection of books. In other words, there is a secret room in this castle.

The father and son both thought of the passage where the three thieves suddenly jumped out when they assassinated Mr. Al.

So Luther glanced at Old Sol, meaning dad, go in first, there might be danger in the tunnel.

Old Sol grinned and felt that his son was a bit of a cheat. But as a senior knight, he is really suitable for exploring the road ahead.

So Old Sol first got a torch in the castle, and then jumped into the tunnel. Luther followed closely, and the father and son began to explore the tunnel.

The process was very smooth, without any disturbance at all.

The father and son successfully arrived at Mr. Thief Wizard's laboratory and saw a large collection of books and scattered wizard supplies.

Of course Luther paid attention to the "Great Knight Potion" placed in the center of the magic circle.

At this moment, there was nothing strange about the potion container. It was lying quietly on the floor, and the magic circle around it did not emit any light.

The refining of the Great Knight potion has been completed.

It was obvious at first glance that this thing was precious. Old Sol wanted to touch it, but Luther stopped him.

"Dad, you don't understand, don't touch it clumsily." Luther said.

"You don't respect dad more and more." Old Sol said dissatisfied, but still took back his hand. Luther looked around first, and then found a book.

A book on the lab bench.

Luther took a look. It was a book about refining potions. Luther had read some of the contents in it. Because he got a lot of books from Mr. Evil Wizard.

But there are some I haven’t seen.

For example, "Great Knight Potion."

As everyone knows.

The path of a knight is much smoother than that of a wizard. There is a huge threshold for wizards. From a wizard apprentice to a formal wizard, most of the wizard apprentices will be eliminated.

After becoming an official wizard, countless knowledge and wealth are needed as nutrients for promotion.

Therefore, wizards are desperately searching for knowledge, refining potions, and doing various experiments to make money.

As for knights, most ordinary people can become a knight. As long as you have the correct knight training method, the secret technique of fighting energy, and a certain amount of wealth to ensure that you have a lot of money, you will be fine.

Therefore, knights have become the main fighting force of mankind. For example, in this battle, knights are the main force.

But knights also have a threshold, and this threshold is the great knight.

If a senior knight wants to become a great knight, besides accumulating physical strength and increasing fighting spirit over time, there is another important factor.

This factor is a further understanding of one's own fighting spirit. This understanding is very mysterious and can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words.

After a senior knight reaches the top, there are very few people who can successfully cross over and become a great knight.

This is also the reason why once you become a great knight, you will be sought after by all forces.

No matter what you did before, be it a thief, a bandit, or a gangster, as long as you become a high knight, you can go to the royal capital to join the king, change your appearance, become a palace noble, and start a family.

The "Great Knight Potion" is a potion that can increase the chance of a high-level knight breaking through and becoming a great knight.

"Dad, we are rich. You might become a great knight." Luther was trembling with excitement.

Great knight.

With the big knight, our Pompeii family has truly embarked on the highway of development.
