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

Chapter 84: The Trend of Corruption

Kao was showing off, and couldn't suppress his trembling voice with excitement, and said: "Do you know who is the greatest enemy of the great Ross family? It's the elves! After the family's most powerful God-chosen Blood Rose died in the war, the next few God-chosens also died in the Elf War.

"Now the family's God-chosens are declining, and the strongest God-chosen is in the hands of the second lady. But I heard that there is a God-chosen who can make puppets and has been living in seclusion in the Ross family's castle. "

"You know all this, you are not bragging, right? Mr. Kao." The maid Scissors rolled her eyes and immediately questioned. She was one of the few people who were not afraid of the housekeeper. After all, always serving the baron personally will gain invisible power.

"Of course, this is what I overheard when the earl's eldest son was fooling around with his wife's sister, and it was on the balcony on the top floor of the castle. It was even a windy day that day. "Kao was so proud that his thin face was beaming with joy.

The scene was dead silent.

Seeing the servants fall into silence, Kao gradually realized that he was talking about a very dangerous topic again.

Kao looked at everyone, especially the harmless expression of the clay pot, and suddenly broke out in a sweat: "You won't tell anyone, right?"

"Now I know why the master doesn't let us receive guests." Sparrow was speechless.

Scissors nodded: "I'm afraid that even the color of the master's underwear will be revealed by the insider."

On the other side.

"Huh~ It feels good, I finally cleaned up the nasty mucus and blood stains. "

After washing up, Shirley wore a loose shirt and coat, and her wet hair was neatly placed on her shoulders. With a confident smile on her beautiful face, Shirley glanced at Field, but found that Field didn't react much.

Damn, if only she had a suitable long skirt instead of the ugly clothes provided by Field, otherwise she would definitely confuse him!

"You look much better, radiant, beautiful lady." Field praised indifferently.

Shirley hummed, then smiled and said, "I like your honesty. "

Chief Knight William and Valteri also came in. After the blood and stains on their bodies were cleaned, the two looked like characters from a TV series.

William was a square-faced macho man who was serious and determined. Perhaps it would be no problem for him to cosplay the power of Demacia.

And Valteri seemed to be a female bodybuilding champion, with explosive muscles all over his body, but his face was very beautiful. The appearance of the Chosen One would not be bad.

"Gu~"

A loud noise came from the stomachs of the three people, making them blush.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm sorry, Baron. We are really too hungry. We haven't eaten a piece of bread for six days."

Valteri laughed, then scratched his head and said it was rude, and he relieved Shirley's embarrassment carelessly.

"Please sit down, the food has been prepared for a long time, and I was worried that you would not like it." Field quickly stretched out his hand to signal, and smiled gently, "I think we understand each other. This is a corrupt place. It is difficult to achieve the luxurious standards of the nobles. I can only provide these help. "

"As long as there is food, it's fine." Valteri couldn't help it any longer, so he sat down, grabbed a piece of meat, and gobbled it up.

Shirley also found it difficult to remain elegant, and using a knife and fork was the greatest restraint.

Originally, Field had prepared an excuse to explain why there was no maid to serve, but Shirley and the others didn't care at all, and it saved Field from having to talk.

It seems that there are also nobles who are easy to get along with, Field thought.

I was too sensitive, and I used to be on guard against them like thieves.

"Hey~ So satisfied!"

The three of them rubbed their watermelon bellies with a comfortable look on their faces. They ate fifteen servings of food, and Field was worried that they would be stuffed to death.

Seeing that the guests stopped eating, Field put down his teacup, washed his hands with a wet handkerchief in the washbasin, and then rang the bell on the table.

Ashina walked out quickly and quietly cleaned the table.

"I didn't expect you to keep a subhuman maid. "

Shirley wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, looking surprised, and then showed an expression of pretending to be disgusted, saying "You are so perverted, but I understand you."

Field was amused by Shirley's ugly expression. Knowing that the lady in front of him had no intention of mocking her, he asked back: "Very cute, isn't it?"

"Indeed, everyone has different hobbies, and I respect everyone." Shirley tilted her head, but as if she thought of something, her expression suddenly became serious, "Respected Baron Field, there is bad news. Although it will make you unhappy to say it, I need to warn you."

"Oh?" Field immediately straightened his back and leaned forward slightly, "You might as well say it directly."

"It's corruption, a large amount of corruption is gathering." Shirley changed her previous smile and said in an extremely sad, even fearful voice, "They are everywhere, from the main city of Lionheart, all the way to the Viscount's territory, and they are even gathering continuously."

"It's a terrible natural disaster that has never happened before. "Valteri nodded, "My Lord, I am Valteri, a second-level Chosen One. I can swear on my faith."

"Of the 200-man Survey Knights, only three of us survived."

After that, the three of them fell silent, and tears streamed down Shirley's eyes.

Field sighed and followed in silence.

About a minute later, Shirley wiped away her tears: "Corrupted creatures have always been aimless and illogical. To be precise, their goal is to kill and corrupt others. In the past, when our Survey Corps entered the Northern Province, although there were constant waves of corpses, we never felt like this."

Field frowned slightly: "What do you feel? Please tell me in detail."

"The corrupted creatures began to cooperate with each other, deploy troops, use wisdom, and form a superior-subordinate relationship."

"I feel that the corruption has given birth to an existence that can control all corrupted creatures, that is, the emperor."

Shirley's face was gloomy, and the endless gray fog outside the window gave people a chill in the spine.

Fuck.

Field slapped his forehead. He has been corrupted for ten years. It turned out that he had just come in, and the corruption of the special cat gave birth to intelligence, right?

"So, Field, leave the northern province quickly and return to the imperial defense line. The Night Territory has no defenses. Once it is attacked, it will fall in an instant."

"Do you know when they will launch an attack?" Field suppressed his inner irritability and took a few deep breaths.

"In one year at the fastest and three years at the slowest, we will definitely launch an attack on the defense line." Shirley said firmly, "I have been following my father in battles since I was eight years old. I am very familiar with the nature of various monsters. Time is really running out."

"One year..."

Field was silent for a moment, and said bluntly: "Abandoning the fiefdom without authorization is against the laws of the empire. Besides, I have nowhere to go except the Night Territory."
