Chapter 108 I Suspect that the Master Is Being Controlled
Lynn left here. He was sure of one thing. What happened here would be told to Wright's mother, who might seek justice for her son.
Unfortunately, Linn was not afraid.
Before he was in the castle, he didn't have any confidence, he was an ordinary person, there were no knights to follow him, and he had a cowardly personality, so many people looked down on him.
Wright is one, and so is Hans.
This junior knight has been loyal to the Aulis family for many years, but his talent is not high. In addition, he was injured when he was young, and his strength cannot be further improved, so he can only become a knight instructor.
His training is quite targeted, dividing people into different levels. The highest level is the nobles with talent, the next level is the free people families with good talent, and the lowest level is those without talent and background, such as Jack and Miles.
They were purely servants of the knights, doing some chores, and it was said to be training, but in fact they were not taught much at all.
From a long time ago, Linn knew that Hans followed Wright. To be more precise, he wanted to use Wright to establish a good relationship with Shani Ollis. Now her mother has become the mistress of the castle based on her son's wealth.
Moreover, the Earl has never shown up for some unknown reason. In fact, many powers in the castle are now in Shani's hands.
After Linn arrived here, he quickly learned about the situation in the castle, and after a while, he was assigned to Ashes Town.
Now that he has become a knight, he naturally no longer needs to be overly careful, he just takes action when it's time to take action.
Recalling what happened just now, Lin En had a smile on his face. He now understood why those people would go to those who bullied him when they became successful. This kind of slap in the face felt really good.
Wright was helped up by Hans and stared at Lin who left with resentment, "I want him to die!"
"Why didn't you kill him?" Wright suddenly turned to look at Hans and questioned.
"He is a noble. I can't take action, otherwise I will be hanged." Hans explained, the anger in his heart was no less than that of Wright.
Ever since he became a knight instructor, many people have been very polite when seeing him, not daring to say anything at all. Even some nobles want to speak kindly, but now, they are being ridiculed and humiliated by the other party, and even he is... Don't dare to take action.
This feeling was particularly oppressive, and it made him want to get rid of the other party.
Wright thumped the ground helplessly, "My magic sword was a gift from my mother. I'm going to find my mother and ask her to teach Lin En a lesson."
Hans raised his head and looked ahead, with a sneer on his face.
In his opinion, even if Linn becomes a knight, it doesn't matter, he is just an abandoned person, and the countess can deal with it how she wants.
Time passed little by little, and at night, Linn opened the door and returned to his room.
Before that, he had been wandering around the castle, asking the servants about some things, and got some gossip. In addition, he went to Karis's family and handed them the letter written by Karis.
After they read the letter, Karis's wife decided to take the children with her to Ash Town when Linn left.
Lin En tried to go to the room where his father was. He found that there were many knights guarding the door, and his strength was not enough to sneak in.
The castle was still the same castle, but it was quite unfamiliar to Linn.
He couldn't find anyone or anything he missed here.
Moreover, he is not the real Linn, and his emotions towards the count and others are not that strong. Now his emotions are more of suspicion.
What surprised him was that Shani didn't come to settle accounts with him, and even Wright, the person he gave him a good lesson, never met again.
Just as he was thinking, there was a knock on the door.
The door opened and the old butler Galvin came in.
The two looked at each other, and after a while, Linn closed the door.
"Master, you have become mature." Galvin said.
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Linn felt a hint of relief from his tone.
"I was assigned to a remote town and had to face the threat of Warcraft. Even if I don't want to mature, reality will force me to mature, and I'm almost there." Lin En shrugged. This sentence was both a rant and a joke. With complaints.
Galvin sighed, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Don't talk about whether it's hard work or not. I want to know if we are assigned to different territories. Is there any order from my father?"
"have!"
"Did he interfere with the division of territory?"
"No, sir, he just gave the order. The specific allocation is decided by the madam."
Lin En chuckled twice, as expected, but he also wondered why the other party was so arrogant, wasn't she afraid of the consequences she would face.
"Let his children develop the territory to make up for the family's losses. I thought there was nothing wrong with this reason before, but now that I think about it, it is impossible to cause the decline of a family that has existed for hundreds of years by simply offending the mage. And he is also a count." Lin En said what he had hidden in his heart for a long time.
In fact, he wanted to say this in front of the earl.
He was quite naive when he just left the castle, and he had no clear understanding of the mage at that time. He believed that as long as he offended the wizard, the family would be doomed, and he firmly believed in the so-called decline.
Later, as he experienced more, he realized how powerful the status of nobles in this world really is, because many nobles are actually extraordinary people.
If it falls because of offending the mage, then the mage's background and strength are quite terrifying. The Oris family can only hide its tail between its legs, and it will not be like now, without any problems.
"Why did he do this?" Lynn asked.
Galvin sighed again, "I don't know. As the steward of the castle, I actually don't understand the master's order either."
Lynn looked at him, "I hope we can have an honest conversation and not cause misunderstandings due to some concealment. As the proposer, let me say one thing first. I suspect that Phoenix's death is not that simple."
Galvin was startled, "Master, have you met a dark cultist?"
Linn didn't answer, still staring at him.
He especially doesn't like hiding anything. This will cause a lot of trouble. On the premise of ensuring his own safety, he will reveal some information he knows.
After a long time, Galvin seemed to have made a decision and said, "The master has some physical problems. I suspect that he is being controlled."
"Why do you say that?" Lynn asked.
"Ever since my wife died of illness, the master's mental state has been bad. He often stays in his room and rarely sees other people. Later, this situation became more and more serious until something happened. A high-level spellcaster came When I got here, I talked with the master for a long time, and then left angrily. Then there were rumors that he had offended the mage. You also know what happened next.
From then on, the master stayed in the room and did not come out. Only his wife could enter. Even I haven't seen him for a long time. I once forced the master to meet him based on what happened in Aulis City, but he still couldn't. He refused, but his voice was heard. "
Lin En, "Then why are you so sure that your father is really your father? You have never even met him in person. Could it be that he has already..."
"I have my own way of determining it. I can't say what it is specifically, but I can be sure that the master is still alive." Galvin said with an affirmative tone.
Lin En didn't ask, and there was no need. He didn't want to say that it was useless no matter what he asked.
"The master's state is very wrong. He has always been wise and decisive, and will not make mistakes, especially when it comes to his children. However, I am confused by the following orders. He asked his children who are outside not to come back and move the castle The children within the family were distributed, but they did not participate in the division of the territory, which caused Madam to do some things that are very sorry for you." Galvin told what he knew.
Linn thought, this was indeed very strange, as if he was being controlled, "Didn't someone check it out?"
"After checking, I asked some friends who I have known for a long time to come over. Among them are senior knights, mages, clergy of the church, and even a druid. They all said there is no problem."
"That's weird!" Linn became increasingly confused.
"By the way, that Druid said something to me before he left." Galvin suddenly remembered, "Don't doubt it anymore, he is just addicted to it and will never wake up."
"Huh?" Linn didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at all.
Galvin continued: "I pressed him and he said nothing except that I would be disappointed if I knew the truth."
His words had already confused Lin En, and Lin En couldn't help but complain, "He is really your friend, and he doesn't even tell the truth. This kind of person is the most deceitful person."
Linn really wanted to curse, but if the druid told the truth, he would know it from Galvin now, without guessing.
"Don't let me meet him in the future, or I will smash his head." Lin En said angrily.
Galvin couldn't help it. His friend's character was like this. If he didn't say anything, he wouldn't say anything. No one could force him.
"Master, do you think there is something wrong with Master Phoenix's death?" Galvin turned the topic away.
"Well, I got some news. The knight guards in the territory discovered a seriously injured mercenary. I learned something from him. He had a boss named Lone Wolf who attacked a noble not long ago. The territory, according to his description, is a bit like Phoenix. I was not sure at first, but later I found some homeless people and confirmed from their mouths that these people were from Riverbend Town.
They were attacked by a group of mercenaries, then tied up and brought to the camp. Later, for some reason, the camp suddenly caught fire and we heard the sound of fighting. When we rushed over, we found that everyone in the camp was dead. "
