Chapter 3: The first battle

As for the mother, Ms. Bena, although she lost her husband and a son,

But she still looked in good spirits, eating and sleeping well every day, and was very nice to De La Serre.

De La Serre decided to take good care of her, kept her in the castle, and provided her with a fine and spacious bedroom.

This is enough for her to spend her old age in peace and die peacefully.

Even in this virtual world, she is her mother after all, and treating parents well is the basic morality of a son.

After properly settling all of this, the six-man team finally embarked on a knight's journey that was full of dangers and like a fish swimming in a cauldron.

The early morning sun slowly rose, hanging over the top of the rich Uxhall, releasing its heat and power.

After the rookie guard at the main entrance greeted his master, De Lassel, the group headed towards the Abyss Mountains.

Because the infantry marched slowly, like a snail's pace.

Therefore, it is estimated that it will take 5 full days to reach the Eastern Abyss Mountains.

For 6 people, the food cost is 30 dinars a day, and the total food cost is 150 dinars.

Well, this is the most economical situation where we don't encounter any enemies along the way.

If we encounter a battle, it is very likely that it will take a few more days.

Maybe it will cost around 200 in the end, he thought.

After all, I am short of money now, but I will have plenty of places to spend money in the future.

Seeing this poor Swadian recruit, he was wearing a pair of simple straw sandals and a torn cloth.

He didn't even have a hat, and the weapons in his hands were probably hoes, sticks, stones, etc.

Some people even mixed yellow sand with soil and pasted it on their legs to temporarily serve as underpants.

I guess when they run fast, the mud will fall off and they will fight with their butts naked.

"Can this equipment of yours kill people? It's hard enough to even kill a dog!"

"As you can see, my Lord."

De La Serre gave a bitter smile. If he had cigarettes, he could have smoked a pack right there...

It seems that I can only put in more effort during the war and help them level up.

In this way, the team has been moving forward for two days...

Fortunately, the territory of the Kingdom of Swadia is mostly composed of wide plains.

In the first two days of the journey, Count de La Serre's troops did not encounter any ambush.

It can also be said that the enemy army did not have the conditions for an ambush, as they could be seen at a glance on the plain.

Besides, this is within the territory of the Kingdom of Swadia after all, and the kingdoms are currently at peace.

If there really are enemy troops, they could only be small-time robbers and looters. We can't encounter any regular army yet.

On the fourth day, things did not go so smoothly for De La Serre, as the troops encountered a battle.

That was when we were about to enter the Abyss Mountains. The mountains were covered with forests and the soil was fertile.

This is an excellent resting place for robbers.

Some forest bandits made a living by robbing passing caravans and farmers.

Seeing that De La Serre's troops consisted of only 6 people, except for the leader, the rest were rookies who were barely clothed.

These forest bandits were grinning so hard that they could hardly stop, as if they had found a piece of meat falling from the sky.

In an instant, 14 forest bandits rushed out.

"Hey, bro! If you want to get through here, you have to leave something valuable behind!"

De La Serre smiled slightly and said:

"Let me teach you a lesson. This mountain was opened by me, and this tree was planted by me. If you want to pass by here, you have to leave some money to buy your way through!

Brother, next time you use this sentence, I will feel that you have some literary talent. "

"Hmm, it sounds like you're more professional than me... Hey, listen! Don't give me that crap, pay the toll!"

"Oh? Then how much toll do you think I need to give you?"

"Well, if you can spare 8,000 dinars."

"Fuck, do you know who I am!?"

So expensive? Can't afford it? De La Serre was simply incredulous.

Do I look like someone who would have that much money

After all, I don’t even ride on a stubborn travel horse, I’m just a poor boy walking…

"I don't know, but I have decided to use your skull as a drinking bowl tonight! Die!"

Very good, it seems the talks have failed and the war has begun.

Tip: As your reputation and honor increase, people will know you.

Your current reputation is 10 and your honor value is 1. You are insignificant on the continent of Calradia.

Hearing this feedback from the system, De Lassel became more and more angry.

He could only vent his anger on the forest bandit in front of him.

Forest bandits are slightly superior to Swadian recruits, armed with hatchets, short swords, etc.

He was also wearing relatively hard animal skins and leather armor.

But compared to De La Salle

, there is still a world of difference.

How can a dirty rogue be compared with a real knight with duel experience

Count de la Serre led the charge, attacking left and right.

Relying on its own high attributes to crush, the sword is like a spirit snake spitting out its tongue, and a blue dragon is born.

He spit out three parts of the fire of anger in his heart, turning it into seven parts of terrifying killing sword energy. This ten parts of fighting spirit,

Soon, nearly 10 forest bandits were killed, and the air was soon filled with a strong smell of blood.

The powerful murderous aura and unrivaled bravery caused the remaining enemy troops to flee.

"We've already fought, you want to escape? You have to leave a toll!"

At this moment, De La Serre was like a god of war descending on the continent. He was more interested in teasing his enemies and started robbing.

For a moment, everyone couldn't tell who was the real devil and who was the bandit leader who killed people without blinking an eye.

Next, De La Serre organized new recruits to chase after them and encircle and suppress them, so that these little bastards could also share some experience points to level up.

Soon, the remaining four robbers were dealt with.

Gain 500 character experience points.

Reputation +5, Dinar +100, 1 Swadian recruit can be upgraded.

Comment: You are very brave and fought well.

Introduction to the Swadia upgrade tree, there are three categories in total.

Swadian Recruit - Soldier - Veteran Soldier - Heavy Cavalry - Iron Knight

Swadian Recruit - Soldier - Light Infantry - Sergeant

Swadian Recruit - Soldier - Crossbowman - Experienced Crossbowman

Among them, only the cavalry has level 5, and the rest are at most level 4.

The Kingdom of Swadia, with its fearsome cavalry, is unrivaled on the plains.

upgrade.

Obtain 1 Swadian Soldier for 20 dinars.

Recent food expenses totaled 120 dinars, leaving 1970 dinars.

Compared with the soldiers, it is obvious that they are much more boastful.

The tattered clothes turned into a cotton-padded short-sleeved robe.

The weapons in their hands were improved into wooden spears, daggers, etc.

The straw sandals on my feet were also replaced with leather shoes.

Looking at this young man who had just been promoted, De La Serre was very satisfied and asked:

"May I have your name?"

"Your Excellency Lord De La Serre, my name is Owens."
