Chapter 144 The Golem Is in Hand (Second Update)

With Luther's instigation, a Pompeii whirlwind swept across Orange.

No one knew how long this whirlwind would last, but even if it lasted for a month, the Pompeii family would make a profit.

However, Pompeii Territory, where the Pompeii family was located as the center of the whirlwind, was quite peaceful.

After the autumn harvest and the carnival brought by the circus, the people began to calm down. They followed the ancient traditions and continued to live a peaceful life as ordinary farmers.

Winter is coming, and farm work cannot be done in this season. Farmers usually hide at home, warm themselves by the fire during the day, and sleep with their wives at night.

Those who can hunt will go into the deep forest to hunt some prey. But they dare not go deep into the deep forest, because if they encounter monsters, they will definitely go without return.

However, this year is slightly different from last year, and the difference lies in the consumption capacity.

Many families bought thick clothes and bedding for the winter, made some sausages and bacon to prepare for a better winter meal, and raised fat to resist the cold.

This is also the long-term development that Luther expected, because at present, only the Pompeii family is doing this business in Pompeii.

The people's money actually just went around and fell into the pockets of the Pompeii family.

It was a sunny day, and the temperature in Pompeii was very high, very hot. But it was somewhat lower than in summer.

After all, after the autumn harvest, the cold winter is coming.

The temperature should also drop.

In Pompeii Castle, male and female servants and guards were still doing what they should do. The only thing missing was the figures of little Maya and Lily.

Since the little loli went to learn magic, there was no cute figure in the castle wearing a maid outfit and small round-toed leather shoes.

And a little baby who was inseparable from Miss Mary, loved to play pranks, and was lively and active.

But Luther could still see them often, so he didn't miss them much.

In Luther's study.

Today is a more formal day, because Knight Stone, who was going to Kaiyue City, and Knight Orleans, a senior knight of the Sabertooth Tiger Mercenary Group who was protecting Knight Stone on his return, came to Pompeii Castle.

He was the big, rough knight with a full beard.

Knight Orleans had some minor friction with Pompeii and his son, but the past is over. Because Luther saved Mr. Al, the Sabertooth Tiger Mercenary Group and Pompeii have a very harmonious relationship.

Because the lord's father went to the deep forest to practice in seclusion, Luther, as the acting lord, met with the two knights.

"Thank you for your hard work." Luther sat in the main seat in the study and smiled gently at Knight Stone and Knight Orleans who saluted him.

Then, Luther invited the two knights to sit down, and asked again: "Did you encounter any troubles on this journey?"

"With the reputation of the Sabretooth Mercenary Group, how could we encounter any troubles?" Knight Stone smiled and shook his head, but then complained a little: "It's just that the procedures for collecting the bounty are very cumbersome, which delayed it for a long time."

Luther didn't care about this, smiled and shook his head and said: "His Excellency the Count of Libya coordinates many things in the whole Orange, and this bounty is one of them. In order to avoid the bounty being cheated, some cumbersome procedures are also natural."

Then, Luther said to Knight Stone: "Please go to the Lord's wife to deliver the gold coins later, but the lady should calculate and return the gold coins to the Baron with interest. At that time, I'm afraid you will still have to escort it to Kaiyue City."

Knight Stone nodded, he was not surprised. After all, it was such a large amount of gold coins, and he was the only intermediate knight in the entire Pompeii territory, so it was natural to hand it over to him.

After a conversation, Luther asked Knight Stone to leave, and then smiled and said to Knight Orleans: "You have worked hard on this journey. The last time you came, you hurried back to the Golden City. This time, you must stay in Pompeii for a few days, appreciate the country's customs, and rest for a few days."

"Okay." Knight Orleans nodded very readily.

So many things have happened during this period, and he is indeed tired. In addition, they have a good relationship with the Pompeii family, so he is willing to stay in Pompeii for a few days.

So Luther rang the bell and called a male servant, asking the male servant to take Knight Orleans and the knights of the Sabertooth Tiger Knights who came with them to rest.

They were provided with delicious food and drinks, and they fulfilled the etiquette of the host.

After dealing with this matter, Luther stretched his body, and then subconsciously planned to call Xiu Xiuya, but then Luther remembered that Xiu Xiuya had embarked on an adventure, and he might not see him in a short time.

Sighing, Luther called a team of guards to ride on horses and headed to the southern end of the Deep Forest Road in the north of Pompeii.

Speaking of this forest road that leads directly to Kaiyue City, there is also a small episode. This year, the family specially sent people to expand and repair it.

Because the population of Pompeii Territory has increased, the material throughput has greatly increased, and the previous road was too narrow.

Fortunately, it was renovated, otherwise today's matter might require some tricks again.

Because today, to be specific, it should be said that it will be soon. After Luther wiped out the Autumn Wind Bandits, the spoils he obtained will be transported back to Pompeii by the guards.

Among them are some gold coins, silver coins, etc., as well as some daily necessities, weapons and armor, etc., but the most important are the eight clay golems and two destroyed golems.

Luther plans to put these eight clay golems on both sides of the four city gates to show off the military power of the Pompeii family.

After all, before this, Luther advertised that there was a junior wizard in the territory, and it would be embarrassing if there were no big toys like clay golems.

Not long after Luther came here, he saw the guards slowly coming with large carts, and on top of these carts, there were clay golems.

The outer periphery of the clay is equipped with iron armor, and sharp swords are held in their hands.

These eight very distinctive clay golems are unimaginable pressure for ordinary people.

"What a huge golem." One of Luther's guards couldn't help swallowing his saliva and let out a low cry.

Luther smiled and didn't rebuke the guard for his rashness.

Not long after, Luther returned to Pompeii with the team and personally commanded the guards to place eight intact golems in front of the city gate.

It has to be admitted that when these huge clay golems were placed on both sides of the city gate, they greatly increased the majesty of the city.

Even if there were two stone lions at the door, ordinary people would feel very impressive.

Not to mention that these were genuine clay golems, created by wizards.

Impressive!

Luther felt that this time he made a lot of money by eliminating the Qiufeng Thieves Group. He even had the urge to try to eliminate another thief group.

But Luther finally extinguished it. Eliminating the thief group was like opening a treasure chest. If you open it well, you will naturally get a big prize, but if you don't open it well, you will lose money.

The Pompeii family's reputation is enough now, so there is no need to take the risk of losses.
