"Linda, help me tie this guy up. I'm tired of holding the sword all the time." In order to prevent Anthony from causing trouble, Chris kept putting the sword against Anthony's neck to prevent him from moving rashly.
"Okay." Linda pointed the wand forward, and the top flashed with a faint green light. The ground under her feet quickly sprouted buds, and they grew up at a very fast speed, tying Anthony like a
Same as rice dumplings.
"Magician?" Anthony's eyes flashed slightly and he exclaimed. He had no idea that Chris not only had amazing strength, but also recruited a magician.
Chris found a stone and sat down. The reason why he asked Linda to take action was just to show off. With his current physique of a first-order knight, he would not feel tired even if he lifted the sword for a day.
Jonathan and the others were talking and laughing, but the first-order knights under Anthony naturally did not dare to make any move. After all, their strongest third-order knight had left.
In less than ten minutes, I saw a bearded man running towards this side holding a black box.
He handed the black box to Chris and gasped slightly.
Obviously, this third-level knight ran with all his strength in order to make time.
"You idiot, the key is here with me, why did you give him the money box?" Anthony was lying on the ground, cursing.
When the bearded man saw his master, he was stunned for a moment.
Chris moved the money box to Baron Anthony and cut off the vines on his body with his sword.
Anthony sat up, took out the copper key from his arms with a resentful look, and opened the money box.
Half of the box was filled with money, mostly copper plates and silver coins, and there were only three gold coins.
Anthony took out the three gold coins inside with great pain, and then began to count the silver coins.
According to the redemption price of five gold coins, after taking out three gold coins, he would also need two hundred silver coins, or twenty thousand copper coins.
Anthony turned the money box over and found that there were only one hundred and ninety-five silver coins in the end, and the number of remaining copper plates obviously did not reach five hundred.
It was a very embarrassing scene. Anthony spent all his family property, but it was not enough to redeem himself.
"Forget it, I don't want those five silver coins anymore." Chris used the space ring to collect all of Anthony's silver coins.
Reputation from Anthony 5
Chris's mind was filled with questions. I captured you and asked for a ransom, but you actually felt grateful to me?
I seem to have discovered a way to increase reputation infinitely.
"Okay, you are free now." Chris put the long sword into the scabbard.
At this time, little Baron Anthony had one or two hundred coppers left in his money box, and he felt like crying.
However, this is also a normal phenomenon. In battles between nobles, it is not uncommon for nobles to be captured by the enemy and pay a ransom to gain freedom.
The predecessor Chris was blackmailed by Anthony several times in this way, and he became so poor.
"Let's go." Chris took Jonathan and the others and walked away.
When they walked away, Anthony spat viciously at Chris's back, "Hmph, just wait and see, don't fall into my hands, you'll be in good hands then!"
Of course, Anthony now only dares to say harsh words behind his back, and he will not dare to provoke Chris in the short term.
Not to mention that Chris's strength now exceeds his own, but the female magician who releases magic casually makes Anthony dare not move.
······
By the time Chris and his party returned to the castle, it was completely dark.
The castle is still brightly lit at night.
"Thank God, sir, you are back." Robert, the butler, and all the servants were waiting at the door.
"Well, something happened on the road, so it was a little slow." Chris walked straight into the castle. "Starting from next month, everyone's salary in the castle will increase by two silver coins."
"Thank you, sir!"
"Long live my lord!"
Reputation from Ruth 2, Reputation from Ellen 2...
The six servants in the castle, plus the cook Mrs. Ellen and the butler Robert, provide a total of sixteen reputation points.
Chris has a cash cow like Snowflake Cake, so he doesn't care about this little money at all. It would be more practical to earn some reputation points to increase his strength.
"Sir, I need to remind you..." Robert was about to speak, but was interrupted.
Chris took out a bulging money bag from the space ring, shook it slightly, and heard a "ding-dong-dang" sound, at least a hundred or dozens.
The chief steward was speechless.
Chris smiled and said: "Oh, by the way, in order to celebrate my promotion to the first-class knight, Mrs. Ellen, please take out all the meat at home. I will hold a bonfire barbecue party in the castle."
"Sir, are you a first-order knight now?"
After hearing what Chris said, everyone in front of them looked stunned.
You know, you just awakened your fighting spirit yesterday.
It only took one day to go from trainee knight to first-level knight. This is simply a miracle. Even the legendary paladin doesn't have such talent, right?
"Congratulations, sir!"
"May the glory of the knight be with you."
Reputation from Ellen 1, Reputation from Robert 1...
Chris received a lot of praise, and at the same time, he also received ten reputation points.
The improvement of the lord's strength can bring a great sense of security to the people of the lord.
"Ruth, please clean up a clean room for this magician lady as soon as possible." Chris said to the maid.
"Yes, sir." Ruth smiled and looked at Linda, "Master Magician, come with me."
Under the guidance of Mrs. Ellen, the servants brought out various meats and wheat wine from the kitchen.
Chris sat in the small courtyard of the castle, watching the servants busy.
"Bonnie, you idiot, the steak was cut too thick."
"George, this is not how you shave fish scales."
Chris smiled. He liked the feeling that everyone was busy preparing dinner and then having dinner together happily.
Everything in front of him made Chris feel like he was at home.
Mrs. Allen lit a bonfire, and various meat racks were roasting on the flames. After a while, the smell of meat filled the air.
There is a huge stone table in the yard. It was built on a whim by my predecessor and spent money to build it. After being used once, it has been sitting there gathering dust. It finally came in use today.
Pieces of grilled meat were served on the stone table, making people drool.
Chris sat in the first position, Jonathan and Robert were equally divided in the lower positions, and the other knights sat in turn.
