A familiar female voice came from behind. Werther looked back and saw Lina. Lina looked a little tired and not in good spirits.
"Well, Wright actually released the elves himself. He used the elves as bait and asked me to chase him. He took the opportunity to shoot a poisonous arrow at me. Fortunately, the elves conjured herbs and I survived."
"What a powerful elf! Did Wright just leave the elf here? Doesn't he want to take such a powerful elf away?"
"Well, he thought that this kind of elf that could turn into plants was useless, so he threw it to me. But what he didn't expect was that this kind of elf was exactly what I needed."
"Lite has indirectly done you a big favor."
"Well, that's true. I'm grateful for his stupidity. But then again, why did you go out so early today?"
"Oh, um~ I went for a walk in the morning, and then I went back to sleep."
Linna walked into the castle while yawning.
Witte murmured to himself: "It is indeed a vampire. He always sleeps during the day. Now that we have plants, we can start planting them."
He walked into the castle and happened to see Wile.
"Your Highness, I just heard from Lina that you got an elf that can turn into plants?"
"Well, let's go to the farm and plant isolation strips now. These plants grow very fast, and they will grow new branches as long as they are watered."
"Need any other help?"
"Find some farmers on the farm and let them plant with us. Don't forget to pay them wages."
"Okay, Your Highness."
When planting the isolation zone, Witte originally sent a few people to observe the situation. Once a wild wolf approached, everyone fled to a nearby farmhouse. Unexpectedly, several times a pack of wild wolves planned to come over, and they smelled the mixed fragrance from a distance.
He stopped moving closer.
The work took two days to complete. Witte looked at the wandering wild wolves in the distance and felt a little relieved, so that they would not destroy livestock and crops.
After the farmers went home one after another, it was already dark, and Werther also walked towards the castle with Wile.
The task of building the isolation belt was completed, and the sound of parchment scrolls suddenly sounded in my ears.
Hey, are there no other tasks assigned today?
Just when he was wondering, the weather suddenly turned cloudy, and the frogs in the nearby pond croaked impatiently. From time to time, lightning flashed across the sky outside the window, followed closely by thunder that seemed to penetrate the heaven and earth.
It didn't rain, but thunder kept coming from the sky, which made people feel uneasy.
"Your Highness, let's go back quickly... uh!"
Just when Wile reminded Werther to go back early, there was a muffled sound coming from him. Werther turned his head and saw that Wile was attacked from behind by a knight and fainted to the ground. Immediately afterwards, the knight was about to attack Werther.
"The following guy is guilty!"
Werther reacted quickly and subdued the knight in a few strokes, but what he didn't expect was that a large net dropped from the sky and covered him tightly.
Soon, Wright came with a group of knights: "Your Highness, you can't escape from my grasp now. I heard that the useless elf I gave you has actually been put to great use. However, starting from tomorrow, you
You will never be in the limelight again, because you will be buried alive here soon."
Werther didn't have a sword by his side now, and he couldn't break free from this net even if his fingers were frayed. He was anxiously thinking about countermeasures. In this situation, in order to survive, he had to use magic. He only needed to use the magic of teleportation to move one of them.
The knight's sword can be moved to open this net.
However, if they find out that I can do magic, the real parchment roll in my hand will definitely be exposed, what should I do?
Just when Werther was at a loss what to do, a black shadow passed over the dark and cloudy sky. The speed of the black shadow was extremely fast, like a strong wind. When the black shadow flew past, it seemed that it was using something similar to a weapon.
, opened the big net that trapped Werther. Then the branches and leaves of several big trees began to rustle.
There was a rustling sound, maybe it was the black shadow just hiding in a certain tree.
What on earth is helping me?
Werther had no time to think about it and started a fierce fight with the knights led by Wright. He first attacked with his fists and knocked down more than a dozen people in a row, gaining the upper hand. However, because there were too many opponents, he gradually lost strength.
"Your Highness, your military power is nothing more than this."
"Stop talking nonsense, dozens of people are fighting against me alone, you are not worthy of being a knight at all!"
"Your Highness, you mean that I am bullying you?"
Wright seemed angry, and his face instantly became gloomier than the sky. He took out a bow and arrow from behind, put the arrow on the bowstring, pointed it at Witte's forehead, and slowly pulled the bowstring away.
And Werther still had to resist the remaining dozen knights in front of him, and he didn't even bother to stop Wright's attack.
Wright smiled sinisterly, loosened the bow string, and the poison-covered arrow flew towards Werther's head. At this critical moment, the black shadow appeared again, flying towards Werther at extremely fast speed.
He knocked the arrow down to the ground, then flew above everyone, blowing a sudden gust of wind that made the knights unable to stand still, and Wright also fell off his horse.
At this moment, Werther finally had a chance to turn defeat into victory. He gathered his strength into his arms, held the sword he had snatched from the knight's hand, and began to fight back violently.
In an instant, the dust on the ground was flying, and the singing insects in the grass were also disturbed. Werther defeated all the knights in just twenty minutes. But Wright had already fainted from fright, and did not forget to hide behind the horse before he fainted.
The nearby villagers were also awakened by the fight and walked out of their rooms to watch. Some of them saw the entire process of Werther's counterattack. They began to talk about it, and their respect for Werther became even more intense. They had already expressed their admiration for the violent Werther.
Dissatisfied with Wright, they now very much hope that Wright can be driven away by the new lord Werther.
At this time, Werther's situation was not so optimistic. He suffered a sword wound on his upper arm, his calf was slightly worn, and he was extremely tired at the moment. However, he could not return to the castle to rest at this time, if he did not take this opportunity.
Punish Wright, then Wright will only intensify his efforts to kill him.
He took the sword and walked up to Wright. With a serious expression and anger, he pulled Wright up and shook him forcefully to wake him up. After being woken up by him, Wright looked at him with confused eyes.
"Wright, you are my subject. We are supposed to be dependent on each other and work together to manage Daybreak Town. But you want to have the power of a lord, and you have committed crimes several times with the intention of harming me. Today you even want to bury me alive. This matter
The matter is particularly excessive and cannot be left alone."
"Your Highness, please spare your life!"
"I will not go around you again this time! I now declare that you will no longer be the knight commander from now on, and your knight team will be led by me. Now, I will imprison you in the dungeon."
"Your Highness, you don't have that power!"
When Wright was begging Werther for mercy, the finance officer and the judge came over with many of their subordinates. Each of them held a torch and illuminated the originally dark night.
"Hey, almost everyone was seriously injured. Is the only one who seems to be doing well the eldest prince?" Finance Officer Colin said.
"It's very close to the portrait of the eldest prince. It should be the eldest prince. Now it seems that Wright and his men have lost. You see, Wright is covered in injuries and can't stand still." Judge McGee replied.
"It's so damnable. Wright originally said that he would meet with us tonight after dealing with the eldest prince to discuss the future affairs. Who knew that he himself would soon be dealt with by the eldest prince."
"Actually, I have long felt that Wright's previous proposal was unreliable. He insisted on telling us and tried to drag us into the water. You know, even though the eldest prince does not have a lord's seal, he is still a member of the royal family. Little people like us will always be
You can’t do the following things.”
"But the two of us didn't do anything, right. Before we got involved, Wright's plan to kill the eldest prince fell through, so the two of us didn't have time to do anything wrong."
"But now
The current situation is that the two of us did know that Wright wanted to kill the eldest prince, and not only did we not stop him, we also agreed to his plan."
"But we only support him verbally because we are afraid of his power. In our true hearts, we don't want the eldest prince to be killed by him."
"Then it depends on whether the eldest prince will investigate this matter and what he thinks of us. In any case, it is better for us not to offend both sides and watch from a distance first."
But at this time, Wright had already seen Colin and McGee, as well as the dozens of men they brought with them.
"Hahaha." Wright's eyes turned vicious as he stared at Witte, "Your Highness, the property officer and the judge came down with a group of capable men. You must know that their men are all carefully trained and powerful thugs. In addition, with such
Many villagers support me, but I don't believe you can escape this time."
"Hehehehe." Werther also laughed and said, "You are an arrogant guy, why do you think they will listen to you and support you?"
"Haha, there is one thing that Your Highness still doesn't know."
"What did you say?"
"In our country of Notland, a lord must have a lord's seal to become a lord in the true sense. But you don't have this seal now. Your father wants you to fend for yourself. My grandfather, Duke Duke, knows that your father
The king didn't care about your business, so he took it upon himself to hand over the lord's seal of Dawn Town to me.
Now, the real lord is actually me, and you are just a lingering decoration."
"Are you so sure?"
"Of course, because the king doesn't like you, is afraid of you, and won't even give you a title. He wants you to fend for yourself. Even the king has already acquiesced to the fact that my grandfather let me have the seal.
"
"You said it yourself, my father just doesn't care about me and lets me fend for myself. Therefore, he can watch me die and fail, or he can watch me survive and win. As long as I don't touch my father.
Even if I get the lord's seal and become the real lord of Daybreak Town, my father will not say anything, but will look at me favorably." Witte said in a low voice.
"Humph, but you don't have a seal at all now, you can't gain everyone's trust, and you can't oust me from the position of knight commander. The current situation is that whoever has the lord's seal is the real lord of Daybreak Town."
Wright stepped backward step by step, and when he arrived a few meters away from Werther, he said loudly: "Everyone, listen to me. Now that the lord's seal is in my hand, help me catch the eldest prince, and I will give you a reward!"
Just when everyone was hesitating whether to take action, Witte raised his left hand high. In his hand was something that could shock all the villagers - the lord's seal.
"Everyone should listen to me, because I am the real lord!" Werther shouted.
Wright panicked and quickly looked for the seal on himself, but couldn't find it.
"Where is my seal? You must have taken it away!"
"What does it mean to be taken away by me? I am a lord named by my father. It is normal for the lord's seal to be in my hands. But you, a little knight commander, are trying to kill me and take the position of lord.
, and you imagined that the lord’s seal is in your hand, it’s really ridiculous and abominable.”
"You, when did you take it away?" Wright asked in a low voice, lowering his voice.
Werther also lowered his voice: "Are you stupid? Of course it is when you are not paying attention."
Then, Werther said loudly: "Now everyone, obey my order and escort Wright to the dungeon!"
The crowd cheered, and it seemed that everyone was sincerely convinced of Werther.
The voice of the parchment rang again: The enemy Wright has been eliminated, but be careful of Duke Dark's next plan.
It seems that Duke Dark is going to use more terrifying methods against me. I don’t know what will greet me next. Also, who is the dark shadow that helped me today?
As everyone was pushing Wright back, it finally started to rain, washing away everything around him.
