Chapter 718
The carriage left Flatlake Town and drove onto a road heading west. At first, the tree-lined road was wide and flat, but it became narrower as you walked. The branches on the right side of the road kept beating against the carriage, making rustling noises. However, the coachman followed the carriage rules led by Randal and insisted on driving on the right side of the road, even in the carriage. The passenger of is the owner of this territory, the noble Lord Randal Count, and he did not invade the left lane.
A public carriage pulled by two bulls came oncoming, and the driver driving the car had some eyesight. He stopped the carriage, jumped from the driving position to the ground, moved towards the noble carriage and took off his hat. The passengers in the grid car were wondering why the public carriage stopped, but when they saw the noble carriage surrounded by more than a dozen Swiftbird hussars, they knew that a great character was passing by, and they stood up and faced the right side and bowed to salute.
Victor’s car continued west along the tree-lined driveway, and never encountered a public carriage along the way. Even farmers and two-wheeled freight pallets returning home from work have become scarce, and the carriage’s driving position has gradually become remote. The farmland on both sides of the road was replaced by hilly pastures, and in the end, even the pastures were invisible.
In the evening, the carriage came to the end of this boulevard and drove into a sentry made of logs and blue bricks.
It is a dividing point between the wilderness on the west side of Randal and the eastern administrative region. Because the irrigation system cannot cover the entire territory, from here to the west belongs to the undeveloped wilderness of Randal. Deserted, only the gathering points of rangers, loggers and shepherds are located near dozens of streams and reservoirs.
There was no road ahead of this sentry post. Victor ordered the attendants to stay at the sentry post, and took Nelson, Charlotte and six Gripen militiamen on board the Swiftbird, and continued to march westward.
In this world where monsters survive, the wild is dangerous, and the law of the jungle is practiced. Although Victor has control of the entire Randal territory, his sphere of influence also includes the southern part of the skylark mountain range and the lizard Great Swamp, with a total area of close to 30,000 square kilometers, but he still follows the rule of the lord to prohibit illegal intrusion into the wild. Once caught, it can be regarded as banditry.
Under normal circumstances, the "bandit" who breaks into the land of the lord can be fined up to three years of hard labor. The "bandit" who is not caught has two other terms, resisting arrest and killing on the spot. Or they managed to escape, but was eaten by the monster and turned into a pile of feces that couldn't tell who was who.
In short, the "bandits" who trespass into the lord’s field often disappear or are missing. Even if they perform hard labor, they may die unexpectedly.
Randal leads the wild wolves to the west. According to the story, honest people will not risk the mortal danger to run in and wander around, but there are always people who are not afraid of death and want to find something in the wild, and then they disappear.
There is a golden Crow in the sky, and there are alchemy war mastiffs and alchemy militias patrolling on the ground. Even if ordinary Knights encounter these opponents, they will come back and forth. Only the Great Knight of the Silver Order can retreat. . However, if you look at Nelson, you know that since the golden bird count was attacked and fell, the bear of the north has been on the church's silver side roster, enjoying the treatment of the silver knight, and going to the church to report.
The secret agent sent by each Great Influence can only be an ordinary person or a occult death. The alchemy militia caught several live mouths in the wild, used psychedelic potions to turn them into idiots, and then gave them to the dwarf Green as test materials.
The Secret Fort of Pharmacy, the dwarf Green, was built in a remote place on the west side of Randal collar near the skylark mountain range. It looks like an ordinary ranger's foothold, with a log fence plus a few A watchtower encloses a small stream reservoir, beside it stands a small wood house, barracks, warehouses and a three-story blue brick villa.
At the beginning, Victor, Sylvia and Tofoven decided to prioritize the development of Knight’s spiritual bloodline secret after discussion, concentrate on improving the spiritual medicine "Knight's Despair", and formulate the "Dawn" medicine. As for the general spiritual bloodline mystery, stay at the primary level and give up the research on source power. However, in exchange, the pharmacy Master Green, the dwarf, was sent to Randal by Kite Castle to develop a spiritual medicine to replace source power. primary level The spiritual warrior can reach the intermediate level.
This secret fort was jointly established by the Augustus family and the York family. Both parties sent the Potion Master and apprentices to assist the dwarf Green, sharing resources and sharing results. Since the Randal Family does not have a decent Potion Master, they can only find a place to provide the secret fort with their daily needs.
In fact, the spiritual medicine secret castle built in Randal is more like the product of Tofoven and Sylvia appeasing Victor. On the one hand, the political system of the human kingdom has not done a good job of accommodating high-level spiritual warriors. Preparation; on the other hand, the source power currently only exists in the concept deduced by Victor's hypothesis. If the ordinary person really has the so-called source power, the church has already researched it out, but no one has heard of something similar to the source power.
His Royal Highness Randal wants to toss, just let him toss. The Augustus royal family should always meet the small requirements of the Kingdom Guardian. Sylvia's idea is more pragmatic. Different Sect's psychic secrets can make the best progress. It doesn't matter if there is no progress. Through this cooperation, the Potion Master of the York family can learn from the dwarf Green, and it is the key to improve the family's pharmacy heritage.
Victor was really too busy, and he didn't have time to talk about the specific affairs of the Pharmacy Secret Castle. The research project of the Secret Castle was completely out of his control. Nicole would often come here to take a look, but she has no say in pharmacy research, so she can only copy the research records of the secret castle.
Victor looked at the records provided by Nicole and found that they were all messy improved formulas, completely incompatible with spiritual medicine. The Barbarian Race prisoner was actually killed by the dwarf Green.
He made a surprise attack this time, intending to rectify the dwarf Green and those hot-headed Potion Masters, to make them understand that this is a secret fort for His Royal Highness Randal, not a free and unrestrained medicine Academy.
Nelson is responsible for frightening them. This guy has a fierce look in his eyes.
The alchemy militia who acted as scouts in the secret castle will not hinder the owner. After Victor aggressively rushed into the secret castle gate, the secret Knight of Kite and Rose Manor reacted. They saw that the uninvited guest turned out to be His Royal Highness Randal. Hastily stepped forward to pay respect and stopped the guard from ringing the alarm bell.
However, Victor's attention was attracted by a person in the small square, and he did not respond to the greetings of the two senior Knights.
Four burly guards are escorting a young prisoner to a cage made of iron essence, intending to put him in and hang it up.
The hanging cage is a cruel tool of torture, tortured the body and mind of the prisoner, specially used to deal with the enemy, that is to say, cage punishment belongs to the category of family lynching. The lord grabbed the enemy he hated, locked it in a narrow iron cage, and showed it to the family members. The prisoner could not stand up or lie down in the cage, so he could only curl up and let others watch.
Due to the semi-open nature of the iron cage, the prisoner can interact with people outside, but he does not have any privacy, and the comparison between the two sides will cause great harm to the prisoner’s mind and magnify the physical torture. It made the prisoners in the cage unhappy.
The lord generally allows the audience to pity the prisoner and provide him with a little food and water; he also allows people to humiliate the prisoner and even beat him with a wooden stick through the cage. As long as they are not killed, the lord will not interfere no matter what the onlookers do to the prisoners in the cage. The compassion of a kind person or the humiliation and abuse of a vicious person will only make the prisoner feel that he is an animal, not a person. But compared to dignity being shredded and tortured physically and mentally, the most terrifying thing is indifference. When people lose interest in a prisoner in a cage, he can only starve to death in despair, and his painful and twisted corpse is still trapped in the cage. The high suspension makes onlookers shudder.
The church strictly forbids cage punishment. Victor has heard of it, but has never seen it. In fact, the real Lord Knight is not a pervert who is out of control. Only the weak chicken families who have no sense of honor in the Eastern Alliance will use this extremely inhuman punishment.
The prisoner in front of him looks ordinary, thin body, pale skin without blood color, azure blood vessels on his arms are clearly visible, and his childish face looks like he has just grown up. The tall and strong guards let him His expression was a bit cowering, but he got into the iron cage obediently, and took the initiative to close the cage door, and then sat in the corner with his knees hugged.
It is inevitable that most people will struggle desperately when they see the iron cage torture device. It takes a little effort for the guards to put the prisoner into the cage. Even if this youngster has never heard of terrifying cage punishment, with his thin clothes, it is impossible to survive the cold night.
Victor raised his chin against the cage and asked: "What's going on?"
Two senior Knights looked at each other, the secret from the House of Internal Affairs of the Kite Castle Knight Kayvin respectfully said: "His Royal Highness, that was Willie, who was sent over a month ago on death row. He killed at least 47 people in Northern County..."
"So fierce?" Nelson touched. The stubble of the lower jaw looked at the prisoner in the cage with interest, frowned and said: "It's not like it, he is obviously an ordinary person...heavier than an ordinary person."
"Nal Lord Mori, you don’t know.” The secret Knight Vaughan of the Rose Manor said in an interface: “Willie is normal during the day, but at night, he becomes a demon, strong as an ox, agile, and bloodthirsty. Sex. It is said that he killed 11 soldiers who pursued him with his bare hands overnight in Northern County, including a trainee Knight. In the end, the Minsk Fortress sent a Knight to capture him."
"His Royal Highness, we have tried it." Vaughn turned to Victor, introduced: "After the sun sets, Willy's changes are amazing. The secret guards of Rose Manor are not his opponents. Master Lin suspects that he is a wizard, and it has been useless. He was doing a drug test. Put him in a cage at night, and when the sun rises on the second day, Willie is back to normal, and he can still remember what happened at night."
Victor’s eyes flashed and asked. Said: "If he is a wizard, Kite Castle Impossible will send it as test material. Is he a wizard?"
"...He does look like a wizard at night."
Kayvin Knight looked back at the cage, and said in an interface: "The priest of the court in Northern County has already verified that Willie is not a wizard...The villagers who were persecuted by him call him the'Night Demon', in fact, he is a lunatic."
The setting sun, the bleak sky is full of hazy purple, a cold wind blows into the iron cage, penetrating the prisoner Willie’s body, making him tightly wrapped in thin clothes, but still remains deadly silent silence.
Victor blinked his eyes to release Wind Element's insight. He has determined that Willie is just a weak ordinary person. So what caused the drastic changes in his body and mind, and the official Knight was required to capture him?
"Get him out of the cage, I want to see what'Night Demon' is like?" His Royal Highness Randal's eyes sparkled with golden streamers, and his voice was flat instructed.
