Chapter 60

"Kill them!" Old John took out a dagger and shot hook without hesitation.

When Hooke saw the sharp dagger flying towards his heart with strong wind, he was immediately frightened, and the strange cry from his mouth was distorted.

One hand leaned over and lightly caught the dagger shot in the air. Hooker, who had narrowly escaped death, breathed a sigh of relief. Then he just felt that his muscles and bones were soft and couldn't stand. He suddenly sat down on the ground, and a smelly liquid flowed out of his crotch. He was incontinent.

"What happened?"

Seeing the sheriff in civilian clothes hiding behind hooker and others, the old mercenaries secretly complained.

"My Lord! They killed our companions! Yesterday, four of our guys came to drink. They killed them when they mixed water in the wine, and now they are buried outside the town. Today we came to talk to them, and they killed another one. My Lord! Look! Look! The body is still smoking, still smoking..." Hooker sat on the ground, pointing incoherently at Barry's body.

The sheriff glanced at the smelly hooker in disgust. This fool! What you said is full of flaws! It's better not to talk.

"If you kill in public, you will be hanged! Someone will catch them!" The sheriff did not wait for John and others to explain. With a wave of his hand, the guards hiding outside the hotel immediately rushed in.

"My Lord, I killed people! I'll go with you!" Cried old John, alone.

In front of this scene, everyone understands that this is a game. Now any excuse is meaningless. It's better to bear it alone than to be served in one pot, not to mention there is no way out.

Old John made a gesture to an old man secretly. The old mercenary understood that old John wanted him to get the family coat of arms left by Victor, which could prove that they were vassals of the nobility. This was the way old John lived.

If the great Lord wants the towns under his name to be prosperous and developed, it is essential to maintain a relatively just order. Theft, robbery, rape, murder, these serious crimes are expressly prohibited.

For crimes such as murder in the street, the prevailing law is to hang the murderer. But this is not absolute.

Generally speaking, freemen kill freemen naturally by hanging, but if nobles kill freemen, it remains to be discussed.

Vassal is the basis for the Lord to rule the territory. They are closely related to the Lord's interests. If their vassal is killed by other lords, the Lord will always be very unhappy. When they catch the opportunity, they will inevitably not retaliate.

Therefore, the usual way to deal with such a thing as a vassal killing a free people in the street is to catch the criminal and hand him over to his Lord. No lord is willing to fight with other lords for this small matter, unless it is a hostile family.

As for how the Lords deal with criminal vassals, it depends on the status and interests of the Lords.

Your men broke my rules and I'll pay you back. When you want to give me a statement!

It's natural. How about I pay you 100 kinsol? I owe you one.

You killed in public today and made me bow to that guy. I'm very upset! Whip you 40 whips, you go back and start from leading the people! Other people's eyes should be brighter in the future. Don't give me trouble!

This is the practice between equal Lords.

Your men broke my rules today and I whipped them 100 times in public. You can take them back.

Thank you, sir. I'll take people back and clean them up. Sir, this is my 1000 gold sol to compensate you.

Don't say anything. Get well, sir. I expect you to help the family expand their territory.

This is the big Lord to the small Lord.

If the small Lord is against the big Lord, then hehe.

Of course, this is only for vassals and free people. If vassals kill vassals, it will be another matter.

Old John thought that this situation was because his people had swept Barol's face, so he asked the sheriff to clean up himself. In the final analysis, it was also because the gang leader thought they were unfunded free people.

I'm afraid it's going to bleed this time. At least 400 kinsol. Old John felt a little distressed at the thought.

It takes at least 200 kingsol to hire a sheriff to deal with these people. You know, the sheriff in Heibao town is a trainee knight.

After the matter is over, the adult told us that even if the latent task failed, we can only go to the territory to ask the adult for forgiveness. Before we leave, we have to kill barrow! Old John thought bitterly.

At first, worried about the Revenge of the Wimbledon family, Victor asked the old mercenaries to hide their identity and lurk in Heibao town and pay attention to the movements of the king capital.

Although Victor didn't tell old John the specific details, as an experienced old mercenary, they could also guess that there were nobles to deal with Victor, so they didn't dare to expose their relationship with Victor, but they were coveted by hyenas.

However, Victor did not know that the Marquis did not send someone to punish him. In Sophia's eyes, cutting off the family's support for Victor is the biggest punishment for him, because Sophia thinks victor will only be eaten by Sylvia! Unfortunately, she didn't know that Victor was no longer her pet, and he succeeded in attracting Sylvia's interest.

Your abandoned son has become someone else's leisure son, but even a leisure son can jump on the chess game. But in today's human world, the undercurrent is surging and the waves are treacherous. Who can not be a chess piece?

"Stop! Take another step and shoot dead at once! Take them all away!" Just as the old mercenary was going upstairs to get the family coat of arms, he was stopped by the sheriff.

The old mercenaries were unable to move by more than a dozen Shangxuan cross bows. Their hearts sank to the bottom of the valley. This is a dead end!

Today's events have a strange smell. Although the town has laws, it's not a big deal for the sheriff to die a free man. It can be settled by spending some money. Old John thought of using the family coat of arms. He just wanted to find a basis for dialogue with the sheriff. After all, the identity of a free man can't bargain with the sheriff.

But now, the use of a killing device such as a crossbow means that the sheriff is here to suppress them, not to rip off them.

Old John knew it when he read the telegram. Today, he was a failure!

It must be that these people spoke too carelessly, their wealth was exposed, and the hyenas smelled it. Barrol found out the details of their mercenaries and found that he couldn't swallow it, so he sold the sheriff a favor and cooperated with the sheriff to set up the dead end.

There is no point in resisting, not to mention being pointed by more than a dozen powerful crossbows, that is, the sheriff can clean up all his disabilities.

Take out the coat of arms of Lord victor and show your status as a vassal. There is no way to live. Because it's too late, it's almost the same to light it up in advance!

Don't look at the front and back, one active and one passive, the result is a world of difference.

If you reveal your identity before the sheriff shows his intention to kill and rob money. The sheriff can stop in time and earn some extra money. Of course, these people will be expelled, but they will not be killed. Because the dark son who can take the initiative to reveal his identity will not be a dead man with evil intentions. Just drive him away. There is no need to kill him. This is a tacit understanding between the Lords. Who doesn't have someone to collect intelligence outside?

But now, the cross bow is pointed to his head, and the sheriff's heart of killing is undoubtedly exposed. At this time, there are only two possibilities to show his dark son's identity. First, the sheriff will arrest himself and others for interrogation and investigation. If the background is very large, he will naturally hand it over to his Lord, and maybe there will be credit. Second, if you are a small Lord, be decisive and deal with it. After all, if the sheriff kills and loots money and is known by his boss, the fat job will disappear. There are many people staring at this position. Anyway, the little Lord can only pretend not to know.

And his own Lord Victor doesn't even have a family Knight...... Just a little Lord!

Old John knew the way very well. When they cooperated with Lord dodor to remove Samson's dark son, many other families were pulled out. Those sheriffs made a lot of money. He was used to this method.

Old John worked hard on the floor with wooden prosthetic legs. He wanted to leave a secret note for Nelson to show two messages, gangster and sheriff.

This is not to let Nelson avenge them, but to leave Nelson with two clues to follow up. Otherwise, the disappearance of his gang is inexplicable. Whether it is out of years of brotherhood or to find out whether it is a conspiracy against the family, Nelson will trace it to the end.

In order to make Nelson search like a headless fly, it's better to point out a direction for the boy, so as not to let the family suffer any unnecessary losses.

Old John noticed that several old guys were quietly doing the same thing. He couldn't help smiling. They were old brothers who ate in a bowl. There was no need to say this tacit understanding.

If you die, you will die. Anyway, many people will be buried with us! When the sheriff finds out the identity of our vassal, barrol's gang will be killed. Speaking of these people, we should have been damned for dragging the mercenary regiment for so many years. If Lord Victor didn't appreciate it, we would really drag down the War Bear, but how can we be willing to leave the War Bear mercenary regiment ourselves? If you want to blame yourself, you can blame these people for their rough work, which made adults lose a lot of money. I hope adults Victor don't blame Nelson and them.

Old John thought silently.

If Victor knew about it, he would be very regretful. At the beginning, he arranged them to stay in Heibao town because he was worried that these old and disabled mercenaries could not travel long distances. He also had a whim to let them hide their identity and collect intelligence. But the two personalities in his will side had no experience in managing the family, even didn't know the concept of dark son, and the old mercenary obviously didn't know how to be a dark son, which led to such a thing.

This is the reality. The sudden whim of a big man often brings disaster to the small man. Although Victor is a small Lord, he is also a big man to ordinary people.

"Sir, we surrender. We'll go with you."

"Come out one by one. Don't play tricks." The sheriff warned.

Watching the old mercenaries come out one by one, the sheriff also secretly praised them. They deserve to eat mercenaries and are very single.

"Seal up here and take all these prisoners away." The sheriff commanded his men.

"Eh? Sir, we agreed! That's not what Barol told me."

When he saw the sheriff driving them out of the hotel, Hooker was a little anxious. They haven't found a copper sol yet.

"Get out!"

Huck, whipped by the sheriff, rolled around and cried loudly, while the mercenaries sneered. These hyenas didn't know that they were dying.

The guard of the sheriff escorted the old mercenaries along the street to the police station. People around them took refuge one after another. They didn't want to get angry because of the excitement.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, a violent drink fixed the sheriff's team in place. A strong man in armor and double axes stopped in the middle of the road. It was Nelson who had just arrived in Heibao town.

"Nelson boy!"

"Captain!"

Nelson's appearance surprised the old mercenaries. Now they have a way to live! It's impossible for the sheriff to kill.

Seeing dozens of well-equipped aristocratic guards coming one after another, the sheriff looked cold, and he thought it was going to be worse!

The strong man on the other side put a lot of pressure on him. Just lifting his axe, there was a fishy smell coming to his face. It was the smell of iron and blood! Looking at his excellent armor and the guards around him, it shows that he is a lord's guard and probably a knight.

The sheriff drew out his sword. Now he regretted why he didn't wear scales, but he couldn't flinch. It was his duty.

"Who are you, who dare to stop the criminals escorted by the security office of Heibao town?" The sheriff said coldly that even the knight could not let him bow his head, and he did not believe that anyone dared to challenge the authority of the York family in black castle.

"Stop!"

Just as the sword was pulled out, a familiar voice came from a carriage behind.

"Lord Bruce!" Cried the sheriff in surprise, but he was a little surprised when he saw Bruce walking up to the strange knight and patting the knight on the shoulder.

"SHAX, what happened?"

A pleasant voice like a clear spring came from the opposite side, and then sheriff SHAX saw a tall and graceful figure coming.

"Nicole?" Cried Charles in surprise. He knew that Nicole was the countess's bodyguard, and now she seemed to be with the opposite party.

Then he saw four familiar family trainee Knights coming from behind, one by one with shy faces around Nicole......

"Lord Bruce, these are some of my old guys..." Nelson put away his axe and begged Bruce.

Bruce nodded. He asked SHAX, "what's going on?"

SHAX complained secretly, but he also gave a simple account of what had happened.

"Let go, just a free man. They are all barons of Wimbledon." Bruce said faintly. He also knew SHAX's little tricks. He just wanted to make a profit.

With a wave of his hand, SHAX's men immediately untied the ropes on the old mercenaries and let them go.

"Shanks, who are those people?" Nicole asked SHAX with a straight face and a sharp, charming chin at hooker and them.

"They? Some scum!" Shanks looked back and said indifferently.

With a cold flash in Nicole's eyes and a long sword with scabbard, she greeted hooker's villains.

She walked back and forth among the group of people like a cloud and water, "poof", "poof", "poof" the long sword with scabbard knocked accurately on the back of the heads of the villains one by one. As they passed, the crowd bent down one after another. In a moment, all these fugitives were killed.

Let you seek Victor's estate!

"Nicole! You! You're already a knight?!" Cried SHAX in shock.

Just now, Nicole used all the family martial arts he was familiar with. However, Nicole used the mellow and natural way to make those scum irresistible. Moreover, her power was retracted and released freely, precise and concise. Every villain was pumped into the back of the head and died alive. No head cracked, or even a drop of blood. It was because her attack was light, deadly and not tragic that the fugitives didn't scream... They didn't even know what happened? It's over.

"Hum!" Nicole looked at SHAX angrily, twisted her head and walked back to the carriage. Bruce's four squires and knights followed him again.

This guy is the worst! It's victor's idea. We must go to his wife and sue him! But his eyes were good, and he could see that this knight was already a knight.

I don't know. If Victor knew that Nicole had such a ruthless side, would he dare to fall in love with her again.

"SHAX, let me introduce you. This is Lord Wimbledon's guard captain, Nelson. He is the bear of the North who killed the Knights of the Tartus family!" Bruce took SHAX and said, after all, SHAX is the Sheriff of Heibao town. He has a deep foundation. It's right to introduce him to Nelson. Let him have a little misunderstanding.

"Lord shanks, why don't we have a drink together? I brought a lot of good wine from the territory this time. You will like it." Nelson affectionately said to SHAX that Nelson was also knowledgeable about Bruce's kindness.

"Oh! Good!" SHAX was shocked again.

"Don't hurry to drink. SHAX asked your people to clean up here, and then escort our motorcade to Rose Manor. This time we killed an alienated mouse." Bruce quickly stopped.

SHAX was shocked. He just felt that today must be his shock day.

As for the gangsters, Bruce, they didn't even take another look. After a while, someone will drag them away, maybe buried in the pit yesterday.
