Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 389 Hobert's Tears
Hobert lay in bed and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. The battle just now was too fast and intense, and the main force of the enemy had escaped. It must be a hidden danger in the future.

He recalled the information provided by Harvey Hayden. It should be the "Cold Night Squad" who attacked him tonight, and the other two mercenary teams should have arrived.

These battle-tested mercenary squads should be of the same level. As long as a sneak attack or assassination fails, they will immediately retreat and wait for an opportunity.

In fact, this is not just waiting for new opportunities, but also putting huge psychological pressure on the target, making the target consume energy in defense.

Hobert believes that one should take the initiative to attack, and even if the other party cannot find a place to stay, the other party cannot live too comfortably.

As for the tactics of the mercenaries attacking in the future, Hobert was not worried at all, because today, in order to integrate the "Ocean Pendant" into his tactics, he did not use the "Order Wood" right from the start, nor did he have the ability to use the "Spiritual Goblet" that consumes a lot of spiritual power.

Therefore, Hobert's strength has not been fully exposed. When the "Cold Night Squad" attacks him again, they will find that the tactics they have studied for a long time cannot effectively hurt Hobert.

After thinking about it, Hobert finally became sleepy.

It's a pity that Forsi finally returned to Backlund, and while Hobert was half asleep, she sniffed the fragrance left on the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.

"Get up!" Forsi returned to the Lord's Mansion early, and after staying here for a few days, she felt that Backlund was a hole in the ice.

Hobert yawned and was stunned for a few seconds before he came back to his senses. He didn't expect that he would be woken up by the lazy Fors one day.

It was true that he had to get up early today, so Hobert went back to his room and changed his clothes.

When the sun just rose in winter, she took Fors to the Wright family's cemetery with heavy steps.

On the way, I met many people who came to attend the funeral. Some of them were residents of the small town, some came here from the village before dawn, and some were not even residents of Hobart's territory.

Philip and the others just buried the Viscount's family hastily before, but yesterday they dug up the bones and re-wrapped them in the newly made coffin.

The cemetery was already full of people standing on the inner and outer third floors, but the scene was relatively solemn, no one made any noise, and everyone quietly watched the new lord and his wife, walking slowly with heavy steps.

When Hobert and Fors arrived, the funeral formally began.

Since there was no bishop or pastor of the Mother Earth Church, Philip presided over the funeral, and the new lord Hobert delivered a speech.

Hobert first expressed his respect to Viscount Wright's family, and then told how difficult it was for the residents of the territory during the past six years without the protection of the lord.

When talking about this, Hobert choked up several times, which made everyone around cry. They really seemed to be living in hell for the past six years.

Working non-stop, but the harvest in the field is still not enough to pay taxes, so I can only use the family's poultry and land to offset taxes, and the more I live, the poorer I become.

Helen, who was watching from a distance, didn't know what expression to use to face such a scene. She almost couldn't recognize that the person with red eye circles and two tears was Hubert?

Helen thought to herself: He definitely has schizophrenia, he was so vicious last night, but today he acted so decently, it looks like two people!

At this time, Hobert changed the subject and talked about how he avenged Viscount Wright's family, talked about the benevolent government he implemented, and drew a beautiful blueprint for the future.

Hobert promised: as Viscount Wright's successor, he will inherit Viscount Wright's virtues, make this territory better, and make people's lives happier. Viscount Wright can rest in peace.

Driven by Hobert's words, the people who came to the funeral seemed to see hope, and lamented that all the bad luck had passed.

After Hobert's speech, the coffins of Viscount Wright's family were carried into the tomb one after another, and finally the tomb was closed. Everyone laid flowers, and after a few minutes of silence, the funeral ended.

On the way back to the Lord's Mansion, Hobert felt that everyone's attitude towards him had changed significantly.

From simple fear at first, to reverence now.

Hobert also felt that the potion in his body had digested a lot again, more so than during the household registration process.

This made him sigh in his heart: "Actually, Viscount Wright wasn't such a wise lord, otherwise he wouldn't have died so badly. It's just that the past six years were too hard, which made everyone deeply miss the days of Viscount Wright's time, and then Viscount Wright became a wise lord.

"Fortunately, I have the concept of 'inheriting the orthodoxy'. Using this funeral, and taking advantage of everyone's nostalgia for Viscount Wright, the orthodoxy was extradited to me. In this way, no matter in terms of law or in people's minds, I am the unshakable lord of this territory."

Life will go on, but the people in this territory feel more confident than before, because they have a new lord to rule, and they are no longer ruled by a group of unreasonable robbers. Whether it is production or life, they are more at ease than before.

Soon, Helen also felt this. She was amazed at the effect of Hobert's two tears, and at the same time, she planned to report Hobert's words and deeds to Ms. Monica immediately.

For Helen, who was not very well educated in politics, it was like hypnotizing people with extraordinary abilities.

Fors, who was with Hobart, also decided that she wanted to write a book about a baron building a poor territory into a beautiful and rich one.

No way, Hobert kept providing her with materials, so that she didn't have to worry that the new book would not have a subject.

After hearing Forsi's thoughts, Hobert decided to sponsor the cause of the "Baroness": "As long as you can write it, I can't help Ruen, but for Fenepot, I will definitely contact the largest publishing house in the country to publish a new book for you."

He was worrying about how to promote his territory in the future, but he forgot about the lady writer beside him.

"From now on, you will follow me and understand all my policies." Hobert urged: "The speed of the new book should be fast. It is best that the new book will be completed as soon as everything in the territory is built."

Fors scratched her head and smiled. In fact, she only had this plan. The previous book on lawyers with Hobart as the model was only written one-third of the way, and the new book needs to be written "in search of an opportunity".

But seeing Hobert's happy face, she was too embarrassed to tell the truth, so she could only agree first, and was dragged by Hobert to the main hall to watch him handle government affairs and accumulate materials.

After the main hall of the lord's mansion was repaired, Hobert would deal with official business in the main hall. He first called Philip, "The next step is to repair the church on the top of the mountain.

"You can't stop, you have to keep building!"
