Chapter 134 We are all the best in the Church of Balance

Chapter 134 We are all the best in the Church of Balance (4000 words)
Afterwards, she silently calculated that there were nearly forty or fifty corpses in the castle alone who fell at the hands of the lord's sword.

The shot thrown at the back was even more horrifying, it was simply not something a human could do.

He could accurately kill a group of knights from hundreds of steps away, which was difficult even for a giant with infinite strength.

After hearing about Gaoyabao's deeds in Bailiu City during this period, she was the only one who believed that the baron could do it, while everyone else remained skeptical.

"Now the taverns in White Flow City are singing about the stories of Highcliff Castle. You have become famous, and your various reputations are loud enough to scare people to death. In a while, maybe some knights and their followers will come to pledge allegiance to you." Leah said with a smile.

As a knight appointed by her, the stronger he is, the better.

Levi thought about it and realized that the fact that the news of High Cliff Castle could spread in White Flow City must be due to the effectiveness of Lolina’s propaganda.

As a person who has experienced the information age, the lord deeply understands the importance of discourse power and reputation, not to mention this world, so he took the initiative to spend money to let Luo Linna publicize the deeds of Gaoya Castle in Bailiu City.

The effect now seems to be significant.

"Tsk, I don't want to confer titles on them." Levi rolled his eyes.

A knight's squire is usually the second son of a minor noble, or an illegitimate son. He learns from the official knights from a young age. Of course, he usually serves as a personal attendant or something like that.

When they come of age, they often seek nobles worthy of following and pledge allegiance to them, and the loyal nobles will also confer titles on them, allowing them to break away from their status as squires and become official knights.

How could the poor lord of Highcliff Castle afford their fiefdoms and knights' salaries?

Instead of using the spare money to support these young masters, it would be better to buy a few more pigs to feed these rough orcs.

"Other nobles are trying every means to get more followers to pledge their allegiance, but you, Levi, are the only one who looks disgusted." Leah was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Generally speaking, the second sons of these small nobles are more loyal because they have been following official knights since childhood and their martial arts skills are much stronger than those of commoners.

The soldiers in those famous ace legions are all composed of these followers.

"Which of my soldiers is not stronger than them?" Levi curled his lips in disdain, pointing at the guards of Gaoyabao behind him, "As long as they are provided with food and lodging, they are willing to sell their lives to me, the lord. They are all elite soldiers and brave generals."

Seeing his boss looking at him, the leader Zat quickly put down his hand that was picking his nose, put away his nonchalant look, held his head high and chest out, pretending to continue advancing with the guards arranged in a square formation.

This extremely stupid behavior was seen by both of them.

It can be said that he has learned the lord's behavior of saying one thing in front of others and another behind their backs.

"Ahem, I'm not as smart as those followers." Levi looked embarrassed and waved his hands to try to explain something. "You know, everyone has shortcomings to a greater or lesser extent. Just like God gave giant monsters infinite power, but also made their intelligence remain at the level of eight-year-old children forever."

"This is a natural way of balance, and orcs are obviously the best among the Order of the Balance.

They have superb martial skills and are even more courageous than the ice bears in the far north, so they naturally have to have some flaws to balance it out so that they are not too extraordinary."

Leah smiled and quietly watched Levi talking about balance, sects, nature and other words that she didn't quite understand.

"Damn it, let me be frank. These orc barbarians of mine are just brutes with heads full of muscles. They are good for nothing except chopping and killing." The lord finally said this in a rage.

Leah looked at the vast grassland and changed the subject, so as not to upset the baron too much. "Levi, I heard that the scenery in the wilderness is vast, grand, and shocking. It would be great if I had the chance to see it."

"Hey, you know what, High Cliff Castle happens to have such a scenery, it is absolutely stunning."

The lord thought of something, held back his laughter, and tried to keep a serious face.

The place to meet Leah was very close to Gaoya Castle, so the ride only took time to drink tea. However, the two of them chatted and the old horse under them also paced slowly and occasionally stopped to eat grass, which slowed down the journey.

As the sound of horse hooves became faster, it wasn't long before a small black dot of Gaoyabao came into view.

This is a gathering place built on a hill, surrounded by a wall. Inside, there are rows of wooden houses. It is crowded with people, all busy with their work, and it is full of a sense of peace and tranquility.

The cavalry guards from Bailiu City were so surprised that they could not express it in words. Since they left Bailiu City, they had often encountered small groups of bandits, and some of the bolder ones even dared to attack them.

It can be said that I intuitively felt the chaos, barbarism, and bloodiness of the wilderness along the way.

To see such a peaceful force in the turbulent and chaotic wilderness is no less than to find a chaste and heroic woman in a brothel.

"High Cliff Castle has changed so much. I remember the last time I came here, the walls were not even as tall as a dwarf."

Skye sighed.

"Knight Skye, it has been more than a month since you last came here. What happened in this month is as long as a year for Highcliff Castle."

Christina crossed her hands on her belly, nodded and smiled.

Her temperament and manners were impeccable. If Sikai hadn't known in advance that this was a girl born in the wilderness, he would have even thought she was a princess.

As the remnant of the royal family of the former kingdom, the Fed tribe has always attached great importance to aristocratic etiquette, considering it the difference between them and the local savages, and thus these things have been passed down.

As the chief of the Fede tribe and the nominal princess, Beristina was taught since childhood by the elders in the tribe who still remembered the etiquette of the nobility. Therefore, her etiquette and temperament were no worse than those of the daughters of nobility.

Sikai suddenly discovered that this lord was very popular with women. There was a lovely girl in his territory, and Miss Leah's feelings for him were obviously more than just a vassal.

Even Lord Miriel of the Mithril Chamber of Commerce, who returned to White Stream City some time ago, kept mentioning the name of the Lord of High Cliff Castle all day long.

Although most of them are bad chatter.

But as a veteran, Sikai knows very well that this kind of man is often the most unforgettable to women.

Compared to this lord, Sikai felt that he was as immature as a child when it came to controlling women. He couldn't even control the shrew at home.

"It is hard for Levi to imagine that in such a time of crisis and turmoil, the people of High Cliff Castle can still enjoy such a peaceful order."

Leah opened her mouth slightly, very surprised.

She had heard about Gaoya Castle in Bailiu City, so it was not surprising that Gaoya Castle, which already had several thousand people, had an elite guard.

But she had never expected that in the face of the impending chaos in the wilderness, these people would still have smiles on their faces without a trace of nervousness.

"In fact, this is related to the scenery I just told you about." The lord smiled mysteriously. If it were the people from Gaoya Castle who were familiar with their lord, they would know that the unscrupulous boss must be up to no good.

As they got closer to Gaoya Castle, an eerie and shrill "quack" sound was heard.

Everyone involuntarily turned their eyes to the source, and then their faces suddenly changed, with a look of shock. They saw a grassy area on a small hill, with heads piled up like pyramids to form a small hill, and countless black crows fluttering around to eat the remaining meat on it.

The grass around below was already pitch black, like a dried-up black lake, a phenomenon formed by the coagulation of blood.

Just a cursory glance would tell you that these heads would be more than enough to defeat a thousand.

The people in Gaoya Castle were already accustomed to it, so they just glanced at it and stopped watching.

Even when these heads still had flesh and blood at the beginning, they felt only a little touched when they saw their heads being pecked away by crows bit by bit, not to mention that now only bones are left of the heads.

Everyone in the Bailiu City Cavalry Guard was silent. The cold wind in the wilderness could hardly penetrate their specially made thick cotton-padded clothes, but the coldness in their hearts could penetrate deep into their bones, making people want to shiver uncontrollably.

They are all elite warriors who would not even blink an eye even if they chopped off their opponent's head with one blow.

But the Jingguan formed by thousands of skulls looked like a thousand people who died with their eyes open, staring at them with hatred.

This is a fear that comes from the body's instinct, reminding them that there is an absolute beast here, which makes them want to escape uncontrollably.

"Levi, is this the stunning scenery you mentioned?"

Originally, Levi wanted to tease Leah a few times. Isn’t it shocking?

When he turned around, he found that the girl had a numb look in her eyes and a hollow tone. He quickly rode his horse in front of her to block her view.

"No more watching, no more watching, let's go back to Highcliff Castle first."

The lord was not thoughtful after all. Although Leah escaped from Cologne with him, she had seen him kill many people.

But killing someone is just a matter of slitting the neck with a sword, and the impact is not that strong.

What does it mean to have thousands of heads piled up like a Jingguan? Even some soldiers who have seen blood may not be able to withstand this kind of visual shock, let alone a young girl.

Even those bandits who were desperate were so frightened that they cured their hunger and quickly bypassed Gaoya Castle. It was really something that not everyone could endure.

There was silence on the way back.

The guards of Bailiu City were about to reach their destination and had a good sleep, and they were also chatting and laughing about whether there was a brothel in Gaoya Castle.

Now, after seeing this Jingguan built with the heads of various alien races in the wilderness, I can no longer laugh.

When they stepped onto the gentle slope of the hill, just when the lord was anxiously wanting to ask how Leah was, the girl seemed to finally come to her senses and spoke.

"Are these heads all wilderness bandits?"

Seeing that Leah only looked a little pale, but otherwise unchanged, Levi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "This is where the peace of High Cliff Castle comes from."

"I won't talk about the impact caused by the Kexianri tribe's southward march. You who came north from Bailiu City should know clearly that this bandit group of a thousand people who were driven south attacked an area of ​​Gaoya Fort at night, slaughtered nearly four or five hundred people, and looted everything."

"Whether it was for revenge or to intimidate these wilderness bandits, I led my men to chase them for a whole day and night, and finally killed them all, without letting any escape, until my sword was bent."

Levi said it easily.

But Leah could already imagine the bloody scene that could make a sword blade bent. Even a slaughterhouse might not be so horrible, with thousands of headless corpses scattered on the grass, and their heads missing.

"Only you can accomplish something so difficult to accomplish." Leah praised with a forced smile.

Total annihilation and crushing are two completely different concepts.

Besides, the guards of Gaoya Castle do not exceed 500 people, so just how to stop those who escape is a problem.

This can only indirectly prove that the Lord of High Cliff Castle has outstanding military talent.

With excellent strategy, a battle of annihilation was completed.

In fact, Levi would not say that he was holding a huge sword and was chasing and slaughtering hundreds of howling deserters at a speed faster than a war horse.

Even the orcs and barbarians saw for the first time that their leader was not only extremely strong and skilled in martial arts, but also had a speed so fast that even a horse’s butt couldn’t catch up with him. He was a truly ruthless character.

They risked their lives, running so fast that they almost vomited blood, and they couldn't even keep up to pick up their heads. As a result, in the face of such amazing physical exertion, after one lap, their leader was still breathing heavily, and he was full of energy again after just two light breaths.

They were all exhausted like dogs and collapsed to the ground, completely submissive to their inhuman leader.

Generally, Levi rarely shows off his speed, because hiding this ability can allow him to achieve unexpected results at critical moments.

On the one hand, this was the first time that Gaoya Castle had suffered such a huge loss, and he was somewhat angry, but on the other hand, he wanted to scare these wilderness bandits.

Fortunately, the only ones who knew about his fast speed were the Orc Guards and a few Werewolf cavalrymen led by Hogg. These subordinates were absolutely loyal and would not reveal anything he specifically instructed.

The Bailiu City Cavalry Regiment was arranged in an area planned in advance. During the period, they remained silent and allowed Gaoyabao to make arrangements.

The people who knew in advance that someone would come to Gaoya Castle just took a curious look and then went about their business.

Originally, Sikai wanted to say goodbye and go to the garrison, but the lord stopped him.

"Originally, it was Miss Leah who should have told me about the Kexianri tribe, but now there is obviously nothing we can do." Levi spread his hands, looking helpless.

The journey had already exhausted her both physically and mentally, and after this scare, Leah naturally felt a little lethargic and in urgent need of rest. It was obviously not suitable for her to continue the conversation.

Your Excellency's actions are completely a result of your own actions.

"It's a good opportunity for us two brothers to drink and chat at the same time." Levi said with a smile.

This made Sikai look alert.

The last time he treated him as a brother, this lord borrowed his beloved horse. This time, it was inevitable that he had some bad intentions.

He said stiffly, "Sir, there's no need to drink. Anyway, the reason we came here this time, besides escorting Miss Leah to see you, is for the Kexianri tribe's affairs."

"Okay, tell me in detail."

It is naturally acceptable for the lord to save two barrels of wine.
