My Wife Is Great Fief Lord

Chapter 7 system rewards

“Lord count, Lord Gervais, they have left.” In a large study, Alice sat at a desk, her maid stood opposite Report quietly.

“en.” Alice’s mood did not fluctuate, she continued to look at the letter in her hand, put it down after reading it, then raised her head to look at her personal maid and asked, “Lina, where is Potter Steward? How’s it going?”

“Sir, I was just about to report to you. After our ten-day interrogation, Potter Steward does not seem to know how the old count disappeared. All his answers , we have all compared with the confessions of other servants and maids in the castle, when and where they are doing everything is consistent, with the testimony of the servants. Except for the period of rest.” Lina meticulously replied.

“Since there’s nothing wrong with Steward, let him manage the manor outside the city with the same salary. After all, he has been with my father for more than 30 years.” Alice twiddled the hair on her forehead, and said herself father A golden Knight disappeared silently in the castle, Potter Steward was the first person to be suspected anyway, but now it basically shows that Potter is not suspected, after a little thought, Alice arranged Potter’s whereabouts.

“Okay, my lord.” Lina replied.

“Anything else?” Alice asked.

“No news, my lord. But old steward said that Lord count went to the church in the city the day he disappeared, but only stayed at the church for a while, and then returned to the castle under the guard of the guards, on the way There is nothing unusual. And everyone’s testimony shows that Mr. Count disappeared in the study after dinner.” Lina replied one after another.

“Go to church at noon? Lina, you send a few people to investigate this matter, especially what my father did there that day, and contact with who. Keep it secret and try not to attract the attention of the church. “Alice thought for a while and instructed Lina.

“Okay, my lord, then I’ll retire first!” Lina nodded replied, finding that Alice didn’t continue her instructions, so she was about to retire.

“Go! It’s been a long time for you, Lina!” Alice nodded, looking at Lina’s face with a faint hint of exhaustion, she couldn’t help but said distressedly.

“These are all Lina’s duties, and you don’t have to worry about me. It’s you who need more rest, don’t be so tired! My lord, I’ll retire first!” Lina heard Alice’s words, although very tired, but the heart is very warm. After speaking, he bowed to Alice and left, moved towards the door.

“By the way, Lina, help me apologize to Potter Steward. Tell him this is not what I want.” Just as Lina was about to walk out the door, Alice suddenly said.

“Okay, my lord, I’ll tell Potter Steward what you said. He will surely understand the need for you to do so.” Lina turned around and listened to Alice’s words, and immediately replied that she understood , then gave a salute to her and backed out the door.

After Lina walked out of the study and carefully closed the door, the study suddenly fell silent. Alice looked at the wall next to her, and the half-length portrait of the old count was stunned, and whispered in her mouth: “Sir Father, where have you been? How did you disappear so silently.”

…

After more than five hours of rushing all the way, the entire Gervais group finally returned to Baron Gandalf’s collar. Usually this section of the road will take about four hours to return to Fort Baron Gandalf, but because it was a night rush, and there were two people who were not able to ride, Thomas and Jimmy, the trip was extended.

However, for Gervais, it is good for him to have two of them as fuel bottles. He has not fully integrated the riding skills of the original owner. Riding during the day is better, and he will not be left behind.

But at night, due to limited sight lines, many curves can only be distinguished when they are in front of them, so it is a test of the horse’s ability to control.

After passing through the town, Baron Castle is already in front of you. Because it is Baron’s small castle, the castle does not have an official name. Generally, the name of the owner is added in front of the castle as a title by default. Baron castles in other places are also called in this way.

When the entire group came under the castle, the gate of the castle had been closed, and the drawbridge over the moat had been lifted.

Looking up to the top of the castle, you can see that four or five torches on the castle have gathered above the gate. They should have discovered their entire group.

“Master Baron is back, you open the door!” Without Gervais and the others speaking, Gandalf’s entourage guards had already shouted loudly to the people on the castle.

“Master Baron, please wait a moment, we will send someone down to confirm immediately.” The guards on the castle heard the shout, the voice they were familiar with, it was the guard named Kate, who went with Baron today Rose Fort. However, you still need to follow the procedure to open the castle gate at night.

After responding, the Captain in charge of the night randomly ordered one of the guards, and then the guard climbed into a wooden frame hanging outside the wall, and several other people helped pull the rope and slowly moved the wooden frame. The frame is slowly lowered towards the lower part of the castle. After the wooden frame reached the bottom of the castle, the man quickly pulled out the wooden frame, trotted to the drawbridge, and carefully looked at the entire Gervais group.

After seeing Gandalf and the others, he hurriedly saluted, “The lord has been waiting for a long time, and the villain will immediately put down the drawbridge. Please wait a moment.”

With that, the guard immediately Moved towards the castle and shouted: “It’s Lord Baron, open the door!”

After a while, the gate of the castle was opened, and the guards left behind on the city wall also operated the winch, and the suspension bridge over the moat was opened. Let go slowly.

“Sir, you are back, thank you! The two Young Masters are also thankful!” After the suspension bridge was stabilized, Gervais and the others passed the falling bridge and came to the gate. Under the gate, Captain of the night vigil immediately stepped forward to greet the brothers Gandalf and Gervais.

“Hello Lord Nathan!” Gervais and Dreiss greeted immediately.

Gandalf has two Lords in Baron, both Bronze Knights, each leading a team of guards. Patrol and training are usually rotated alternately, and Gandalf’s three children usually follow them to learn martial skills, so they are very respectful.

This Lord Nathan is one of Gandalf’s vassals. He is a bronze middle-rank Knight and a team of guard Captains. In addition to guarding the castle, he is also responsible for patrolling the territory. He has a farm in Gandalf’s Baron domain, a Fiefdom given to him by Gandalf.

“Nathan, thank you! Have you had any peanuts?” Gandalf bowed to Nathan and asked the question he was most concerned about.

“Sir, it’s going to be a baby soon, and Steward is already there with two grooms.”

“Okay, then I’ll go and watch, Dreis. , Gervais, the two of you go to the castle and let the servants cook some hot food out, everyone should be hungry after driving so far.” Gandalf heard Nathan’s answer, refreshed, and explained to Gervais, and moved towards Go to the castle gate.

In this world where Knight is all battle strength, a good horse is more precious than Gervais’ original world. The stables are generally located in the forecourt of the castle and protected by the city wall.

After Gandalf left, the entire group of Gervais also slowly rode into the castle. The drawbridge of the castle was lifted again, and the gates were closed again.

When they got to the castle, a few people dismounted, and the servants took their horses to the stables to take care of them.

Thomas and Jimmy, Gervais had already instructed the servants to arrange their accommodation, and after explaining the hot food in the kitchen, they could not wait to go back to their rooms.

After riding for five hours, he would like to take a good bath to relieve his fatigue. More importantly, he couldn’t wait to see his cheat.

“Young Master, the bath is already filled with water!” Gervais had just reached the door of the room when the servant’s voice sounded.

“Okay!”

…

Going to the bathroom, Gervais was soaking in the bath, conscious of thoughts move, and a panel immediately appeared in front of him.

The panel that appears in front of you is very simple. There is a button on the left labeled with the search function. There is a scale bar behind the button. The scale bar shows 1 to 1. Gervais thinks that this should represent 1 energy point. I can use this search function. As for what to search for, Gervais does not know yet, so I am not going to touch it for the time being. If something happens, it will be bad for people in the castle to see it. He is ready to go to his own territory and try again. What exactly does this search function do?

Gervais looked towards the right again. The right should be the exchange mall mentioned by system. There are item boxes in the mall.

There are only four item boxes that appear now, which are fruits of four different colors. One of the golden fruit icons has been lit up with an X1 mark on it, and the other three icons are all black.

This should be the extra reward for completing the task for the first time. There is a scale bar at the bottom of these icons showing 1 to 10, which is easy to understand. The 1 on the left and right sides of the panel should be both Refers to the energy points you have, 1 energy point can open the search function, and 10 energy points can be exchanged for a fruit.

I just don’t know what effect dao fruit actually has. It needs 10 energy points, and he only gets 1 point after completing a task.

Gervais looked towards the golden fruit that was already lit up again, his thoughts changed, and suddenly he felt that there was something in his hand, Gervais looked down and found that he was already holding a golden fruit in his hand , which is exactly the same as the lit icon fruit. He looked at the icon again, and the originally lit icon had gone out.

Gervais was convinced, so he closed the panel and carefully looked at the golden fruit. The variety of the fruit, Gervais, had never been seen before. It was not big, about the size of a lychee. It has a faint fragrance, and the taste is indescribable when you savor it carefully, but it is so tempting that you want to take a bite in your heart.

To eat or not to eat? Gervais was still a little hesitant to make up his mind. After all, the fruit I have never seen before, I don’t know the effect, if the poisonous food is eaten and the pigtails are twisted, I will take such a large piece of territory for nothing.

But if you really don’t eat it, what should you do if there is any time limit and the effect of the fruit will be lost after a long time. Gervais wanted to find a cat and dog to test, but it was midnight and there was nowhere to look. And it’s such a small thing, just a little bit and it’s gone.

“It doesn’t matter, this system is what I got after transmigrating, there is no reason to harm me!”

In the end, Gervais brace oneself decided to eat it, raised his hand and put the golden fruit on it. Into the mouth, and then lightly chewing, suddenly felt a sweet warm current flowing from the fruit, along the throat into Gervais’ stomach. It didn’t take a moment for Gervais to feel that his mouth was empty, and there was no scum in his mouth.

“Sure enough, it’s not Mortal Grade! I just don’t know what effect it has.” After eating the fruit, Gervais felt warm and indescribably comfortable. The anxiety in my heart finally dissipated, and I was no longer worried.

Perhaps because he was too tired from today’s trek, Gervais just leaned on the edge of the bath and slowly fell asleep.
