"Call everyone over, now I have an order to issue!" Justinian was obviously angry, and slammed his palm on the table, which made Abdera feel shocked.

It seemed that the new little guy was not as immature as he looked. Although he didn't know what Justinian Alcohol had prepared, Abdera nodded and went to summon his men.

Looking at Abdera's leaving figure, Justinian was also thinking in his mind. He knew that he had to do something, otherwise he would have to be trapped in this small castle without establishing prestige. By then, the sleeping Ark of the Covenant might wake up.

It's your own death date.

Suddenly remembering the horrific scene where his arm turned into bones, Justinian felt a chill.

After a while, Abdera mobilized all the soldiers in the castle. Most of these people were old, weak, sick and disabled, and only some were young and middle-aged. They looked confused and didn't know why they were called here. They have been called here for many days.

Because of the pirates, everyone was hungry.

At this moment, a young man walked out of the city lord's hall and said calmly: "As far as I know, you haven't had a full meal for several days! But you deserve it, so many people were scared by a group of pirates.

You actually hid in the city and couldn't come out." Justinian said in a contemptuous tone, which immediately angered the soldiers in front of him.

Everyone's face turned blue and white for a while. As soon as they saw the time to board, one person rushed to say: "You brat, who are you? It doesn't hurt to stand and talk. If it's that easy, do you think we are willing to huddle here?"

?What do you want us to fight for?" As he said that, he dropped the tattered spear in his hand. Justinian had just arrived and there were many people who didn't recognize him.

Seeing this scene, Abboud immediately shouted: "Shut up, Valens, this is the new commander-in-chief, His Excellency Justinian. You are too presumptuous."

Justinian knew that this man's name was Valens. He was one of the young men in this castle. He was good at skills but had a hot temper, so he was quick to do anything and was notoriously difficult to discipline.

Valens took the lead, and several other soldiers also started to make noises. Although they were scolded by Abdera, they didn't care. In their view, Justinian was just a useless boy.

But Justinian said calmly: "Oh, in that case, you mean you are willing to do it if I give you weapons?"

The noise suddenly stopped. Justinian's words were obviously not casual. Abdra looked at Justinian in disbelief. He did not expect that this young man would make big moves as soon as he came up.

"Are you kidding? How many weapons can you gather together? The few of us who deal with pirate No. 100 will definitely die, and it's not you who have to fight for it." Valens smiled far-fetched, looking at Justinian's eyes for some reason.

Somewhat guilty.

"I won't force you. Who is willing to go with me to investigate and see if the pirates have left? How about if any of them are men? Come forward now." Justinian asked, scanning these.

Soldiers of the Empire.

"I'll go with you. I only need ten people. Are you really a bunch of losers?"

The words were shocking. Justinian actually wanted to personally lead a team to investigate the village occupied by pirates. Abdera did not expect that this young man would do such an amazing thing. When Justinian said this, Warren

Si also knew that he would lose face if he didn't stand up, so he gritted his teeth.

"Okay, if you say so, I will accompany you!" Anyway, with Commander Bandon on his back, Valens was not afraid of losing his life in vain.

Justinian praised: "Okay, finally there is a man, who else dares to go with him?"

Looking over, I saw that all the soldiers lowered their heads, which made Justinian's expression darken slightly. "Are you still timid now? Not only will I provide you with weapons, I will also provide you with weapons after completing this matter."

reward."

After Justinian finished speaking, he took out the money bag from his arms and placed it in front of everyone.

"For fifty sous of gold coins, whoever comes with me can get this money when he comes back." This was the wealth obtained from Alexius III, and it was time to put it to use.

As soon as this amount of money was taken out, everyone's eyes lit up. Ten people were worth five sous each, which was equivalent to the income of poor households like them for most of half a year. This was very important to these hungry people.

It is undoubtedly a fatal temptation.

I saw another soldier jump up and muttered: "I'll go too, at worst I'll end up facing the pirates and lose my life." He was obviously willing to risk his life for money, and this immediately encouraged other people who were eager to give it a try.

Several people stood up.

"I'll go too!"

"We are willing to follow you, Lord Justinian!"

"I'll join in too."

Looking at these scenes, Abdera was dumbfounded, and everyone was almost there.

Sure enough, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, and Justinian was very satisfied.

Just listen to a loud voice: "Okay, so there are a few more people, the number of places is limited, who else is there now?"

On the side, Abdera said calmly: "I'm going too. You shouldn't be in danger, but if you insist, please take me with you." This man who was over fifty years old held the long sword in his hand.

I am glad that Ilovan Castle can welcome such a master. No matter what methods he used, at least he finally aroused the bloodiness of these soldiers a little.

Justinian was even happier. On the one hand, this veteran's experience was very useful for him to deal with pirates. On the other hand, he at least completely suppressed the situation and did not cause discord.

"Okay, then it all depends on you. Although I am the superior, you are more experienced in this area." Justinian said to Abdera humbly.

The situation in front of him took a turn for the worse, and the ten people responsible for the investigation were all gathered together at once. But before that, Justinian still had some other things to do. He looked at several other officers and said: "I'm not here.

At that time, it was entirely up to you to manage this place, but I want to borrow your weapons for use." Since he had said that he would provide weapons, Justinian would naturally keep his word.

"But, sir, our weapons are just for food. If these boys lose them, wouldn't we..." I saw a few men saying with embarrassment. They all brought their own weapons and really couldn't bear to part with them.

.Especially since there were several people around Justinian who were thorns in the army, and their boss was unwilling to do so.

But Justinian said with a cold expression: "Then what do I order you to do?"

Seeing Justinian's sudden change of face, several officers also trembled in their hearts and had to take off the weapons from their waists. Justinian ordered someone to take it and returned to his pleasant expression, "Please don't worry, if anything goes wrong, I will take care of you."

How about the compensation amount?”

Seeing what Justinian said, the officers looked at me and I looked at you, so they had no choice but to do as they were told.

On the other side, after handing the weapons to the ten people who stood up, Justinian also showed a serious face, "Now that I have given you weapons according to your request, you should also fulfill what you said before!

"
