Start as Inherited Baroness

When the last rays of sunlight fell, the earth was completely dark, and the wind blew in the wilderness, making the linen tent rustle.

At this time, the traps outside the camp had been set up, with three large pits, and many sharp wooden spikes were inserted in them.

On top, a layer of thin branches and some grass and other local materials were laid to camouflage.

After dinner, everyone was eager to get rid of the annoying thing tonight.

Simon carefully memorized the locations of the three trap pits, and took Aire, Sarit and two heavy infantrymen to sit in the pre-set position.

A bonfire had been lit in advance at the back of the center of the three arc-shaped pits.

In addition, Winness asked to follow, and Simon agreed. As an entry-level (formal) mage, she should be able to be of some use.

Kelley led the people of the War Spear Mercenary Group to ambush on both sides.

They not only dug three trap pits, but also dug trenches on both sides to hide people.

The trench was also covered with some branches and dry grass, and it was difficult to see people hiding in it at night.

Simon and the other six sat on the ground around the campfire, and Winnies sat side by side with him, facing the forest in the east.

Bored, the two chatted quietly.

Aire, Sarit and two heavy infantrymen looked around vigilantly, with their long swords unsheathed and their battle axes on the ground.

Time passed quietly like this, and the wind not only did not decrease, but became stronger. At some point, it started to drizzle all over the sky.

"You go back first, otherwise it will rain heavily later." Simon said to Winnies beside him.

"It's okay, my robe is waterproof." She smiled slightly, put on the hood on her head, and said.

"Wait a minute, I'll get an umbrella." She said again.

"Be careful, watch your feet." Simon warned.

"Don't worry." Winnies stood up and just turned around to walk back, a creepy roar suddenly came from the forest in the east.

"Ah!!" Then more than a dozen shriveled figures rushed out, and the first few ran so fast that they all rolled into the trap pit.

"It's a corpse ghost!" Winnies screamed.

Simon's heart trembled when he heard this, and he immediately drew the steel sword at his waist and held it horizontally in front of him.

Winnies raised her staff and chanted a short spell, and then a lychee-sized light ball shot out from the gem on the top of the staff.

This light ball was suspended in the air seven or eight meters, emitting a blazing white light, illuminating the area of ​​more than ten feet as bright as day.

The scenery within dozens of feet was almost clear.

The corpse ghosts in front raised their hands to cover their faces, and their running speed slowed down immediately.

At this time, Sarit had already bent his bow and arrow, and with a whoosh, he shot down a corpse ghost.

But it climbed up again crookedly.

"Attack the head and you'll kill it with one strike." Winice reminded him immediately.

Sarit said nothing and shot another arrow, which hit the head of the wight that had just climbed up almost without missing a beat within a range of dozens of steps.

He was right, it never got up again after falling down.

"Retreat to the camp!" Simon shouted.

Something unexpected happened, and he didn't want to lead so many guards in the front.

"Yes!" Aile responded and immediately escorted Simon back to the camp.

Seven or eight wights stepped into the trap and couldn't climb out for a while, and another four or five rushed through the gaps between the traps.

They all held broken weapons, including knives and swords, and one held a rusty iron hammer.

And they were not transformed from humans, but wights transformed from the corpses of jackals.

However, although they looked ferocious, their combat power was average, and they were all chopped clean by Sarit and two heavy infantrymen in a few strokes.

"It turns out they are just fakes!" Ai Lei shouted in annoyance when he saw this.

Simon was also frightened, because the movements of these zombies were so fast that they almost caught up with the speed of a sprinter sprinting a hundred meters.

The impact alone was quite scary.

However, Simon's guards were still quite reliable. The heavy infantry also had the physical fitness of high-level warriors and were not far from bronze warriors.

Just as Simon was about to step forward to take a closer look at these zombies, a sharp howl sounded in the forest again.

The Spider Woman rushed out with her long legs.

Simon was startled and turned around to run to the camp. Kelley also led a group of armored mercenaries to meet them.

"Ah!" However, the aggressive Spider Woman suddenly changed her tone, as if she had fallen.

Simon had no intention of looking back. He ran back to the camp with all his strength before turning back to look.

I saw Kelair and a group of people holding spears and stabbing into a trap. The sound of the spears piercing into the flesh kept coming into my ears.

It turned out that the corpse ghosts had only triggered two traps before, and the other one on the north side was intact.

The direction that the Spider Woman chose to attack happened to pass through this trap, and she fell into it.

Although it was a bit cunning, after becoming a monster, its IQ was not very good after all, and it might not be as good as a wild wolf.

Simon asked the soldier next to him for a spear and walked slowly to the trap pit.

Pushing away several mercenaries who were blocking the view, he saw the Spider Woman in the pit.

This monster was about three meters tall, and a green woman's head grew where the spider's compound eyes should be.

In addition, it had eight limbs, and the pair of claws in the front were very sharp. If a single person encountered it, he would not be able to beat it without the skills of a bronze knight or a silver warrior.

At this time, it was stabbed by Kelley and his men, and its body was full of holes, with green blood flowing, and it was no longer breathing.

"Stop!" Simon shouted.

Everyone stopped immediately and looked at him in surprise.

Simon picked up the spear and stabbed it hard at the Spider Woman's head. With a puff, the feeling of piercing the flesh came from the spear.

Then he stabbed back and forth. After more than ten times, the Spider Woman finally stopped twitching, and a ding sound came from his ears.

Simon immediately had an idea and called up the page to check. It was indeed upgraded to a higher level, with an extra strengthening point.

He threw the spear in his hand to the soldier behind him and asked Kelley: "Can this thing be sold for money?"

"Yes, some of the materials on the Spider Woman are useful to alchemists.

This one can be sold for at least 200 gold coins." Winness said.

"That's great, drag it out and take it with you." Simon said with joy.

"You don't have to take everything away. Only the claws, blood and ashes are valuable." Winness smiled.

"Okay, you are a professional, I'll leave it to you. You can mobilize my people in this matter." Simon said with satisfaction.

"Don't worry." Winness smiled very obediently.

Simon nodded, and took Aire back to the camp. After arranging the guards to take turns to watch the night, he went into the tent and lay down to sleep.

And Sarit stayed there to help deal with the body of the spider woman.

He didn't need to worry about trivial matters. Everyone was very respectful to him. Although the food he ate every day was average, he still felt that life was getting better.

He began to build his own territory in his dreams.
