Lord: Exiled by Stepmother, I'll Rule the World Anyway

"This is the Blue Feathered Dragon Beast, a unique monster raised by our family." Lei Ying explained as if he saw Field's confusion.

After hearing this, Field suddenly lost interest.

After everyone exchanged a few brief greetings, Lei Ying began to investigate the cause of Falide's death.

Unlike the aggressive questioning he imagined, Lei Ying didn't even cross-examine Field. He just let Milani take charge of the investigation while he went back to command the army.

"It seems I was too careful again." Field shook his head. Even in the magical world, the current criminal investigation methods are definitely incomparable with those in the future.

The more important point is: the legal principles while alive are valuable to them, but after death they are a disgusting nuisance.

If Lei Ying hadn't needed to give Falide's father an explanation, he wouldn't even have come.

In the next few days, Field fished and relaxed in Spring Village, teasing the Dragonborn and Rosaria from time to time.

But the atmosphere in Fulan Territory became increasingly solemn and panicked. This originally peaceful and prosperous land was being ravaged by terrifying demons. Rumors of three-eyed black crows and demonic massacres spread everywhere, and people were panicked for a while.

"Snapped!"

"Master, let me go faster! You useless slaves." A man with a flat nose cracked his whip, "We must get to Alfalfa Town tonight, otherwise there will be no food."

"So tired..."

Lumi's eyes were blurred, and she could only feel that the world in front of her was spinning randomly.

She stopped because the ropes on her feet were holding other members of her race. Her stop immediately caused the others to trip to the ground, and the slaves rolled into a ball.

"Damn thing, how dare you hold me back."

The man holding the whip was unceremonious and slapped Mi Lu on the back.

Just like scraping a bone with a steel knife, Lumi was immediately knocked over, with a ferocious look of pain on her face. She fell to the ground, curled up into a ball, and bloody saliva dripped from the corner of her mouth involuntarily.

"Play dead with me, right?"

The man raised his hand and wanted to beat him.

"Okay, Flat Nose, don't beat her to death. You've killed so many slaves along the way."

"Every slave is money."

"Do you know how hard it is to catch a scurrying cat demi-human?"

The companion on the side spat, his face full of displeasure.

"You don't understand my good intentions. The Fulan Territory has not been peaceful recently. It is rumored that there are demons from hell, looting and killing everywhere. Even several knights have died. It is said that they will fight with blood-stained black crows." The flag appears when night falls and returns to hell when daylight comes, so it’s safe for us to get to town as soon as possible.”

"You're kidding, you can kill knights, it's just a story to scare children." Everyone sneered, "But it's true that Nekoyans are dangerous. It is said that the Baron of Maple Leaf Territory was assassinated by Nekoyans."

"Nonsense, I let them bite me when I was doing an 'oral examination' on the cats!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

The people in the slave-catching team laughed evilly.

"Boom!" A burst of thunder sounded, and the sky darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Damn it, it's going to rain heavily. We won't be able to reach Alfalfa Town today."

"Let's go to the villa of the rich Ajim. It's nearby. I have some friendship with him. We worked as mercenaries together back then. Later, he made a fortune selling addictive substances and returned to Morrowind and became a rich man."

Flat Nose had just made people angry, so he immediately took the opportunity to improve his favor.

"That's great, brother. I don't want to stay out in the wild during a rainstorm, and the evil spirit will enter my body."

In fact, it is just a cold, but for ordinary people in this era, a cold is almost the same as "evil energy" entering the body, and they will die.

"This Nekoman seems to be dying."

Flat Nose poked Lumi's head with his toes. Seeing that she moved very little, with more air coming out and less air coming in, he simply kicked her stomach twice: "Damn, I'm really going to die. Nekoya is a waste. I don’t know what use the dignitaries have for them.”

Lumi moved her fingers feebly and shed tears involuntarily from the corners of her eyes: "No...don't leave me."

"Let's go, Flat Nose."

Everyone had to rely on him to lead the way out of the rain, so they didn't say anything.

"Yaya~" A crow's call came from the sky.

Field controlled the black crow, followed the caravan's axle marks, and found the merchant's whereabouts.

Field had a great time assisting Milani in the investigation.

A total of three knights' manors, five wealthy people's villas, and two caravans were captured.

The upper-level combat power of the Fulan Territory was exhausted due to countering the rebellion. With Asuna's power, the Fulan Territory was completely sideways. What limited Field's plundering speed was that they didn't have enough manpower to transport the goods.

"I need more people, and the lower the possibility of betrayal, the better."

Capturing villagers won't work, and those who come by force have the lowest loyalty.

In fact, Field already has someone chosen, and that is the demi-human slave.

"I always have a bad premonition." Snub nose shrank his head, he looked at the black crow in the sky that had not left for a long time, and thought of the terrifying rumors, "We...are not being targeted by demons, right?"

"Stop talking nonsense, I just want a glass of barley wine now." said the member of the slave-catching team. Then he suddenly listened attentively and heard the rumble of thunder in the distance. He wondered, "Why doesn't this thunder stop? .”

The leader of the slave-catching team was shocked: "Idiot! It's cavalry, and there are cavalry approaching us!"

The deputy jumped out of the horse and kept waving the caravan flag in his hand: "We are the caravan heading to Fulan City, our own people, our own people!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a brilliant silver line streaked across the dim sky, and an arrow killed the deputy directly. The powerful impact caused him to fly backwards and dismount.

"Damn it, it's not Fulan City's cavalry, the enemy is attacking!"

No one even saw where the enemy was, and the entire caravan immediately became excited.

Lumi seemed to hear the howling of wolves in the wind. The trembling sound caused by the roar made her feel scared in her bones. She lay on the ground unable to move, but she was inexplicably excited. She could see the direction of the horizon and the waving flags. rising slowly.

A shuddering murderous aura swept through the entire caravan.

At night, the cavalry leader looked like a giant eagle, forming a neat "human" formation and falling towards the caravan's position.

Silver Claw and the others all practiced at night and through countless killings. It can be said that since they picked up their war horses, they were either killing or on the way to kill. Therefore, once they launch an attack, their murderous intent is as real as they come.

The leader of the slave-catching team is also ruthless: "Just hold on, as long as we repel them, I'll give you ten gold coins each!"

When everyone heard this, they immediately became violent. They were all thugs licking blood from the tip of their swords. They grabbed their horses and launched a countercharge.

The cavalry from both sides clashed, and the contact was instantaneous.

"court death!"
