Only I Can Use Summoning Chapter 655

"Morgan! Morgan!"

Zhang Ze's voice came from the office, and old Morgan immediately walked in and asked respectfully, "My lord, are you looking for me?"

"right!"

Zhang Ze stood up, holding a thick stack of documents, and said, "You and I will go, I want to see the grain depots and treasuries in the city, and inspect the barracks and the people."

"This... obeys orders."

Old Morgan showed embarrassment, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he nodded.

The two walked out of the consul's mansion and walked towards the grain depot.

Along the way, Zhang Ze saw many beggars begging on the side of the road, and even starved corpses. He frowned and asked, "I saw a lot of grain recorded in the account books of the grain depot. Why don't you release the grain to save people?" ?”

"This..." Old Morgan was speechless, he could only say, "My lord, you can go to the grain depot and see for yourself."

Zhang Ze knew that there was something in his words, so he didn't ask any more questions.

When they came to the grain depot, the soldiers opened the gate of the storehouse, and Zhang Ze was stunned.

It turned out to be empty inside!

"What's going on here? Where's the food?"

Zhang Ze was furious. He patted the account book hard and asked, "Could it be that these accounts are all fake? Morgan, tell me clearly, what's going on?"

"My lord, calm down." Old Morgan said with cold sweat on his forehead, "The grain depots and treasuries in the city are controlled by the nobleman, Viscount Cromwell, and the little ones have no right to intervene."

"A nobleman stretched his hand so long?" Zhang Ze narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "You don't need to ask, the treasury has no money, right?"

"..." Old Morgan nodded silently.

Want to release food to save people but have no food, want to buy food but have no money...

The economic lifeline of this small town is tightly controlled by Viscount Cromwell!

At this time, a beggar came forward and knelt down in front of Zhang Ze with a plop, begging for food.

Zhang Ze pulled him up and asked, "Why did you become a beggar? What about your house and fields?"

"My lord, my house and fields have been confiscated by Viscount Cromwell because I owe him taxes..." the beggar replied timidly.

"Tax money?" Zhang Ze frowned and asked Morgan, "Could it be that the tax money was taken by Viscount Cromwell?"

"...Not only the taxes, but also the minerals, livestock, and textiles here...all belong to Viscount Cromwell." Morgan told the whole story.

"Okay!" Zhang Ze took a deep breath and said, "It seems that I need to pay a visit to this Viscount Cromwell."

Under the leadership of Morgan, Zhang Ze came to the mansion of Viscount Cromwell. He saw people kneeling outside the big iron gate begging for food, and his face turned livid.

"Tell Viscount Cromwell that the new Consul is coming to visit him."

Zhang Ze said to the guard in the iron gate with a cold face.

A guard immediately went to report, and soon he came back, arrogantly said: "Sorry, Lord Viscount is not feeling well, he has already rested, please come back next time."

Zhang Ze's eyes lit up with raging anger, and he cursed secretly: "Bastard, this is giving me a blow!"

Old Morgan saw the blue veins on Zhang Ze's forehead, and hurriedly persuaded him: "My lord, don't be angry, nobles enjoy privileges, so please don't offend them. Let's come back another day..."

"Another day?" Zhang Ze laughed back angrily, and he ordered: "Morgan, call all my guards immediately and arrest Viscount Cromwell!"

"This, this is absolutely impossible!" Morgan panicked completely. If he offended Viscount Cromwell, not to mention that Zhang Ze would be in bad luck, even he would suffer accordingly.

If it doesn't work, I will have to explain my life!

"Stop talking nonsense! Do it right away!" Zhang Ze was furious.

Unexpectedly, the guard inside the iron gate laughed and said contemptuously, "Looking for a guard? What an idiot, doesn't it mean he doesn't know that the guard's salary is provided by the viscount?"

"Haha, that's not it. Could it be that the guards arrested the person who paid them? Then who will they ask for money to live on in the future?"

"Even the monthly salary of his consul is allocated by Lord Viscount, otherwise, he would have to drink the northwest wind!"

Hearing what the two guards said, Zhang Ze understood it completely.

The city has been corrupted by Viscount Cromwell, and everything is under his control.

The so-called consul is just an empty shelf, without any power.

"No wonder they are so arrogant, so they have capital."

If you don't die, you won't die, Zhang Ze decided to show this Viscount Cromwell a little color!

He smiled coldly and said, "Without guards, you think I can't do anything about you?"

As he said that, he pulled out [Blood Dragon] in his hand, and split the chain on the iron door with one knife!

"Ah! What are you doing?"

The two guards were startled, one pulled out his waist knife, and the other turned around and ran into the mansion to report.

Zhang Ze held the sword in his hand, and said coldly: "Today, I'm only looking for Viscount Cromwell, and everyone who has nothing to do with it should go away, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

The guard on the opposite side didn't know how powerful Zhang Ze was, so he brandished a waist knife to kill Zhang Ze, but Zhang Ze easily countered him.

At this time, another seven or eight guards rushed out of the mansion, ready to besiege Zhang Ze.

These guards are average in strength, but they cooperate with each other tacitly. It seems that they are all soldiers.

Zhang Ze was too lazy to entangle with these people, and with a thought, Xiong Nu appeared beside him.

"Owner!"

Xiong Nu saluted respectfully, Zhang Ze waved: "Get rid of these guards."

"Yes!"

Xiongnu turned around. She was nearly two meters tall, and the guards only reached her chest.

"Wow, this woman is so tall..."

The guard looked up at Xiong Nu, already dumbfounded.

Xiong Nu grabbed the heads of the two guards one by one, and slammed them in the middle!

Boom!

The head is blooming!

To deal with these guards, she didn't need to transform at all, and she could easily get rid of them all.

"Come quickly! The consul broke into the Viscount's mansion and killed people everywhere!"

Seeing this, a maid screamed in terror.

Zhang Ze grabbed her and asked coldly, "Where is your Viscount?"

"In...in the study..."

Abandoning the maid, Zhang Ze walked into the mansion, went straight to the study, dealt with the two guards who were rushing towards him, and then kicked open the door of the study!

"You, are you crazy?"

Viscount Cromwell backed away in fright, leaning against the wall with a pale face.

He never expected that this novice consul named Luosha would dare to rush into his residence. Doesn't this person know that nobles are protected by the royal family?

"If you dare to touch me, prepare to accept His Majesty's punishment!" Viscount Cromwell warned Zhang Ze sternly, but he was so scared that he wanted to pee his pants now.

Zhang Ze grabbed Viscount Cromwell's collar with a fierce look in his eyes: "Touching you? I want to kill you!"

"However, it's too cheap to kill you, first spit out the minzhi minyou you ate before we talk!"

Viscount Cromwell pretended to be calm, and yelled: "What nonsense are you talking about? What kind of people are fat, the money I make is aboveboard..."

Snapped!

Zhang Ze slapped him hard, making his eyes stare, and said viciously: "I'll give you a chance, repeat!"

"You, you will regret it!"

Snapped!

"say it one more time!"

"I am an aristocrat, I protest..."

Snapped!

Snapped!

Zhang Ze slapped loudly with both hands. Viscount Cromwell had been beaten into a pig's head, all his teeth were knocked out, and he couldn't hear clearly.

"I, I said, stop hitting..."

Seeing Zhang Ze raise his hand again, Viscount Cromwell shrank his neck in fright, not daring to be arrogant anymore.

Zhang Ze dragged Viscount Cromwell out of the study, facing him, Morgan and the captain of the guard were running towards here with dozens of soldiers.

Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked.

The temper of the newly appointed consul is too hot! If there is a disagreement, do it!

"Are you the captain of the guard?"

Zhang Ze asked with a gloomy face: "I know that Viscount Cromwell gave you all your wages, but now I have the final say here. Do you listen to him or mine? Make a decision now!"

He had already thought about it, if these people chose to side with Viscount Cromwell, he would definitely not be polite.

This unhealthy trend must be severely punished, otherwise, he will not be able to control this territory at all, let alone deal with those players.

It is undeniable that Zhang Ze is very strong now, and it is not a problem for one person to deal with hundreds of players.

However, it is impossible for him to stay at the resurrection point all the time and keep killing people.

Therefore, he needs to mobilize the strength of the local people to help him.

The captain of the guard shook the saber at his waist, finally let go, bowed and said: "Hardy, my subordinate, obey the orders of the consul."

As it turned out later, Hardy made a decision that made him proud for the rest of his life.

"Very well, Hardy."

Zhang Ze nodded, threw Viscount Cromwell to his feet, and said, "Interrogate him! At the same time, his house was raided!"

"And you, Morgan!" Zhang Ze pointed at old Morgan, who was too frightened to make a sound.

"Calculate all the property of Viscount Cromwell's family, and then report to me. Immediately, immediately!"

"Yes!"

Old Morgan and Hardy did so at once.

Back at his mansion, Zhang Ze opened the team channel and asked about everyone's situation.

[Giant God]: Local nobles? Yes, they are still very arrogant, but when the players fight over, they all turn into turtles. Later, when I drove the players away, they treated me with a lot of respect.

[Irritable Dragon King]: Giant God, you are too merciful. When I went up, I just beat them up and beat them straight away!

[Raksha]: Haha, Dragon King, we are the same! You can't be soft on this kind of rubbish!

[Melancholy in the sky]: Well, I can't do it anymore. The local nobles have their own armed forces. Although I can defeat a few people, they are too many, and I can't defeat them...

[Run away]: Me too, brother, quickly send some followers over to help me and Sister Youyou.

[Liu Yueying]: The local nobles are used to being domineering. If it's useless to reason with them, you have to use force.

[Yi Ye Zhi Qiu]: However, the nobles are protected by the royal family. If we do this, will we be sanctioned by the royal family?

[Take a knife without emotion]: I will be sanctioned for sure, but it won't be now.

Players kill people and set fires everywhere, and the royal family is also in a state of distress. As long as we can repel the players and save the country from crisis, we will be heroes. They will not do anything to us for the time being, and will reward us.

However, after the players are all driven away, it will be hard to say, and they will definitely counterattack.

[Moonlight Bunny]: I understand this. If the birds are gone and the bows are hidden, the royal family will definitely attack us!

[Little Princess Money]: It's so scary, it's really like accompanying a king like a tiger!

[Little Niaoyiren]: What are you afraid of? The task is completed, we will clear the level when we get the key, what can they do with us?

[Irritable Dragon King]: That's right, even if they wanted to do something, wouldn't we resist? Hmph, wiped out their royal family as well!

[Giant God]: There is no need for this, our goal is to pass the customs, not to destroy the country.

[Raksha]: I have collected a lot of followers this time, if anyone needs help, just ask.

After exiting the team channel, Zhang Ze waited for reports from Hardy and Morgan.

The efficiency of the two was quite high, and it didn't take long for them to come to report the situation to him.

"My lord, Viscount Cromwell has confessed everything."

Hardy submitted Viscount Cromwell's crimes to Zhang Ze. There were hundreds of charges listed above, each of which was enough for this guy to die once!

Old Morgan also handed over a ledger to Zhang Ze, and said respectfully, "I searched Viscount Cromwell's property and found a total of 3,000 catties of grain and 10,000 gold coins..."

Zhang Ze frowned: "That's all?"

There are as many as 10,000 people in the city, and three thousand catties of grain is simply a drop in the bucket.

As for the 10,000 gold coins, it seems like a lot, but it is not enough to spend all kinds of money.

Taking the salary of a guard as an example, a guard needs 10 gold coins a month, and two hundred guards need 2,000 gold coins.

This cost one-fifth of the cost, but also to buy food to save people, to purchase weapons and equipment, and to repair the city wall defense...

Zhang Ze curled his lips and said coldly: "I don't believe that Viscount Cromwell only has this bit of property!"

"He has been entrenched in the wilderness of misery for many years. It is impossible for him to make so little money by turning this place into such a virtue!"

"Go, continue the interrogation! Be sure to let him spit out everything he ate!"

"Wait for him to explain the matter clearly, choose a good day, sentence him to death in public, and give the common people an explanation!"

Old Morgan wiped his cold sweat and reminded: "My lord, you must obtain the permission of the royal family to execute nobles..."

"Kill it first!" Zhang Ze waved his hand impatiently.

Then he pointed to the map on the wall, looked at Hardy, and said, "Hardy, have you fought with those players? Come and tell me about them."

Zhang Ze needs to fully understand the player's situation in order to formulate a reasonable response plan.

"Yes, my lord!"

Hardy strode forward. For some reason, he suddenly felt that this new consul was different from the previous ones.

He felt a righteous energy from Zhang Ze. He knew that this consul was capable and wanted to do great things!

"My subordinates have fought with those players six times. They feel that they are not like the army, and there are no orders and prohibitions. They are more like a group of wandering soldiers who like to fight on their own."

"Of course, there are also some players who will form a small team of a few or a dozen people to move around. This kind of combat power will be stronger."

"However, as long as we prepare in advance, we can still defeat them by surrounding them with large forces~www.mtlnovel.com~."

When Hardy said this, he sighed and said, "However, no matter how many times we kill them, they will be resurrected, and then come back like locusts, which is really unbearable."

Zhang Ze nodded, he could understand.

Desperately killed the enemy, and in a blink of an eye, the other party appeared in front of him with a high spirit, and no one could accept this matter.

After thinking about it, he asked, "Do you know where the player's camp is?"

"I know!" Hardy pointed to a place on the map, and said, "It's in the wasteland to the west, half a day's journey from here."

"Very good!" Zhang Ze nodded and said, "Take a few people and come with me to see those players' camps."

"Obey!"

Just as they were about to leave, a guard rushed in and shouted in a panic, "My lord, it's bad, hundreds of players gathered outside the city, and they shouted to attack and kill the consul!"
