Lord Pender

Chapter 15: Behind the Knights of Hull

"My lord, the old village chief of Lat Village is the first to arrive." The castle attendant said respectfully to Leo in front of him.

Under the shadow of the candlelight, Leo's shadow was obliquely reflected on the wall and looked extremely long, a pair of handsome blue eyes with a bit of serenity, and his handsome eyebrows were slightly frowned. Hearing what the attendant said, the corner of his mouth smiled, "Let him come in. "

"Lord Baron, I am Cole, the mayor of Lat Village, and I am here at your summons." The old Cole Village Chief still exaggerated his tone, and his wrinkled face seemed to show his sincere loyalty.

"Village Cole, welcome to you," Leo also had a smile on his face. This was the first of the five people who came after he issued the summoning order. Lat Village is not close, and the other party came. So fast, it was obvious that he set off after receiving the call.

From this point of view, the other party is still worthy of praise.

"Lord Baron, this is the current situation of Lat Village. There are 82 villagers in total, including one blacksmith, one carpenter, one tailor, and the rest are farmers." The village chief presented a sheepskin roll, a simple Introduces everything about Lat Village.

"Very well, Mayor Cole, I am quite satisfied with your performance," Leo took the small parchment scroll, looked at the apparently hasty handwriting and the detailed description, and looked in front of him. Cole Village Chief's eyes were also much gentler.

"Lord Baron is overrated, the Archimonde Baron is your territory, and serving you is Cole's blessing," Old Cole lowered his head lower and said with a smile.

"Very well, Mayor Kerr, you can probably see that Lat Village is too far from Lanxia Village. I will build a big city on the original site of Lanxia Village. The current population is far from the city's standard. It's still too far away, so I plan to let you move in Lat Village, what do you mean?" Leo narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Old Cole in front of him.

Gollum…

The old Cole village chief secretly said. Sure enough, Simon guessed right, Lat Village is too far from Lanxia Village. This ambitious lord obviously intends to gather strength in his hands, but unfortunately, he did not bargain at all. possible.

"Of course," Leo said with a slight smile when he saw that the old Cole Village Chief was about to speak, "Old Cole Village Chief, a talent like you is indispensable to the future Lanxia City. It's just that being a village chief is too talented, and after the village of Delat moves in, I will naturally have another appointment."

what!

Hearing what Leo said, Cole Village Chief was naturally overjoyed. This is the official appointment. In a hurry, the old Cole Village Chief also replied loudly, "Thank you, Lord Baron, for the reward, these are what Old Cole should do. Lat Village has always been your territory, it was, it is, and it will be in the future!"

In just two days, Leo had seen the remaining village chief of Heiyan Village and two knights, but the last one never returned to his place.

"That is to say, so far, only Knight Hull has not responded to my call, and has not left the knight's manor yet?" Leo looked at the secretary in front of him, and the other party was also apprehensive, lest he be caught by his own family. The lord is angry.

"Master, Hull is clearly ignoring your authority. I beg you to send me and Brother Shatt together to teach that ignorant guy a lesson." Captain Kari said angrily. The blood lion fighting qi, Kari has clearly felt the strength of his own terrifying growth, which can be said to be eager to try.

"Kari, ask someone to investigate carefully, Hull's father once also made great contributions to the battlefield. Hull also served in the Great River City a few years ago. It's not a straw bag. I know, to be able to be so confident, I'm afraid there is something else." Leo said with a slight frown.

"Master!" Captain Kari wanted to say more, but when he saw Leo's gaze, he suppressed the remaining half of the sentence.

"Lord Baron," Achle's shout was already heard outside the castle over there. Leo looked at the words, but saw Achle said with a bit of anxiety, "Lord Baron, I seem to be I know the reason behind Hull."

"Huh? How do you know?" Leo frowned slightly. Achle was the leader of the caravan. Although the caravan was well informed, Hull Manor was a bit remote after all, and the other party had never been there.

"I got the news that it is from the Mutter Chamber of Commerce, and there is a famous big businessman in the Great River City, called Gaisbu, who accounts for almost 60% of the timber business and textile business in the Great River City, which is very influential. Power." Achle said with a look of awe, "Some people saw that their people visited the Hull Knights, and many people stayed there in the end."

"Two merchants?" Leo also frowned, "With just two merchants, then Hull has the courage to fight against me?" Leo was indeed surprised. The noble class is strict, especially in the Lion Kingdom Kingdom.

The power and status of the nobles are far from being comparable to that of the commoners. Even if the wealth of two mere businessmen is huge, how could they have forced his vassal, Knight Hull, to join forces with them? unless?

"There are still people behind them," Captain Cary on the side said as if he had finally come to his senses, "It must be the nobles in Long River City!"

"Yes, Lord Baron, when I went to the Great River City to sell refined salt, they had already noticed it.

It seemed that a caravan came to buy and look at refined salt before, but you rejected it. Perhaps this was their counterattack. "Achle said again, "As far as I know, Mutter, the chairman of Mutter Chamber of Commerce, and his brother-in-law is Baron Kevin. Even in the huge Great River City, Baron Kevin is one of the best. "

"Is there such a thing, but that Baron Kevin?" Leo frowned slightly, and said with some puzzlement, "I have no impression of that Baron Kevin, but he is a baron, no matter how strong his strength is, he will not be in the Is it running rampant in a giant city like the Great River City?"

"Yes, a court baron, naturally there is nothing worthy of attention," Achle nodded, "The scary thing is Kevin's surname, his full name is Kevin Alama, the famous Duke of Alama son."

"Duke Alama!" There were bursts of exclamations at the scene, even Leo changed his color a little, and Uncle Vent, who had always been indifferent, frowned.

Who is that, Duke of Alama? That is the lord of the Great River City, a great noble that can be counted in the entire Fierce Lion Realm Kingdom. His strength is extremely terrifying, even in the entire Pande Continent. Summoning the support of the knights is a powerful one.

A behind-the-scenes noble of a chamber of commerce would have something to do with such a behemoth, no wonder that Achle had a bitter look on his face.

"Then are we still going to fight?" Captain Cary at this time was also very cowardly. Obviously, the legendary Duke of Alama still gave him a great shock.

"Of course," Leo said in a deep voice, "two mere businessmen dare to challenge my vassals to provoke the rule of my Archimonde Baron, I, Leo, take charge of this matter, on the ground. The power of the nobility is protected by law, and even the Duke of Alama will not blatantly violate it.

Besides, I don't think that Baron Kevin would get so much attention from the Duke of Alama, otherwise, would he be a court baron? "

Obviously, Leo's consideration is quite reasonable. The status of a noble is far better than that of a commoner, so what if he is a businessman?

Moreover, the chairman of the Mutt Chamber of Commerce will not personally come to sway Baron Nahull. If he fails, it will be the crime of beheading. At most, find a scapegoat. If he wins, it is easy to say, if he loses, Then act as if nothing happened.

"Then I'm going to prepare," Captain Kari resigned respectfully after salute. On this day, the entire Lanxia Village seemed to be running on high-intensity clockwork, and the whole village revealed a little chill. Color, many soldiers were urgently assembled.

Seeing this scene, many villagers also know that, Lord Lord, I am afraid that there is going to be a war.

Anyone can know that Baron Leo has great ambitions, has gathered countless refugees, prospered the villages and cultivated military affairs diligently, and his strength is absolutely terrible. It is definitely not a strange thing to start a war.
