Duluf is extremely strong, bloodthirsty and warlike, and is a good powerhouse under Daniel. But he is by no means a good lord, nor a good father. Oss has a completely different character from his father. He is quiet and gentle. Duluf is very dissatisfied with him. Every time when training martial arts, for Oss, it is simply hell. Duluf was very harsh on him, as long as he didn't do a good job, he would be beaten and scolded.
For his father, Oss’s deepest impression was how he roared at him, Oss was afraid of him. When he heard the news of Duluf's death in battle, his mood was mixed. There were some touches, but not to the point of sadness. So now when asked by Alan, the little boy answered truthfully. He really didn't know whether to hate Alan or to thank him.
He really didn't know.
Allen patted him on the shoulder and said,
I don’t know, it doesn’t matter, you still have a lot of time to think anyway. But before that, I suggest you learn how to manage your own territory. IMHO, your father and uncle’s That is not feasible. The leader is the blood of a territory. If you squeeze their value excessively, the protein in the blood will be drained, and then this territory will not be far from extinction."
"Treasure them, majesty and kindness, so that you will become a good lord. And your people will create more wealth for you."
After a lot of encouragement, Allen planned to leave.
Oss suddenly said: "Why did you do this?"
"Don't you put me in custody? Are you afraid that I will retaliate against you in the future?"
Allen turned his head and smiled and said, "This is the second thing I want to tell you. As a superior, you must have enough capacity. How much you have is related to how far you can go on this road. .Determine your goal, and devote the most energy to achieve it, don’t be distracted easily by some minor details. If every opponent I kill, their relatives and friends I have to cut off one by one. Then I don’t have to do anything, I just stay where I am forever."
"As long as I keep moving forward, then these people who may become obstacles to me will only be left far behind by me, and they can no longer become obstacles!" Leaving this sentence, Allen left the room.
Seeing his back disappearing outside the door, Oss suddenly thought that he might never catch up with this back.
When he walked out of the conference room, Allen heard a loud noise. He followed the sound and saw Willick carrying a man at the gate, and a few boxes on the ground. Several people who looked like entourage fell on their knees, and five or six soldiers were aiming at them with fire/guns nearby. One of the boxes opened, and something fell on the ground. It was a golden plate with decorative patterns around it, and some of the flower buds were also decorated with crystal diamonds, which looked very valuable.
"What's going on?" Allen asked.
Willick pushed the man on his hands to the ground: "We caught a thief."
"What are you talking about? You actually said that Lord Yalor is a thief, you are a brute-powered bastard, I want you..." The man took Willick's punch before he finished speaking. Willick didn't dare to make a heavy hand, otherwise this man's life would have to be confessed.
"Yalor?" Allen squatted down and smiled: "I've heard of you, then, what are you going to take away from me?"
Half of Yalor's face swelled, and he said vaguely: "My lord, my lord. I swear, I really am not a thief. These are my property, and I have the right to take them away."
"Property?" Allen stood up and shook his head: "Don't you know that this territory already belongs to me. I am the owner of this territory, and everything on the territory is my property. Mr. Yalow, you see, my people did not wrong you. Trying to take my property away, what is this not a thief?"
When Yaluo heard it, he jumped up and shouted: "You can't be so savage! They are my things, how can you just them like this?"
Allen's face became cold: "Then when you took away their wealth from the civilians, how did you ever think about it like this."
"Stop talking nonsense, now I announce that Mr. Yallow is trying to steal my property. Willick, break his legs and throw him out of the city. This is the punishment he deserves."
"No no, I protest! Save me, Lord Oss. Oh no, what are you doing, let me down quickly!"
Yaluo yelled, but couldn't get rid of the two tall soldiers. Following Alan's orders, Willick broke Yallo's legs first, then let the soldiers drag him across the street, and finally threw him out of the city. The civilians in the city watched all this clearly, and after Yaluo was thrown outside the city, they also began to walk outside the city.
"These untouchables, these lowly bastards. Actually broke my leg, I want revenge! I want to avenge you, wait, wait until I come back next time, I want to take you..." Yaluo was cursing While waiting for Alan, there was a sudden pain on the top of his head, and he couldn't help screaming. Turning around, he saw a thirteen or four-year-old boy holding a stone in his hand.
There was some blood on the corner of the stone, Yaluo touched his head, his hands were also sticky, and he knew he had knocked the boy. Yaluo was furious: "Asshole, do you know who I am? This lowly asshole, I'm going to strangle you on the gallows!"
After speaking, Yaluo found that there were more and more people around him. They surrounded Yaluo, and the shadows drawn by the people completely enveloped him. Yalor's arrogant arrogance finally disappeared, and he looked at the angry faces in fear. He glanced across the city, where there were soldiers on duty. Yaluo couldn't help but stretched out his hand and shouted, "Here, soldier. I'm Yaluo Lord, come and save me..."
A stone hit his face, and his words were thrown back into his stomach. Then comes the second and third block. People roared, roared, and completely vented their grievances in the past. When the child threw a stone, the men simply stepped on and kicked with their feet. Yaluo cried and shouted, counting on the soldiers on the wall to rescue him.
The two soldiers looked at Jeff. Jeff shook his head and said, "That's what he deserves."
After the people dispersed, Yaluo's eyes widened, and there was no scars on his body. Jeff made a gesture, and the two soldiers went down and quietly took his body away.
This was the only one who died in the city. Ironically, he did not die at the hands of Allen’s soldiers, but at the feet of civilians.
When dusk fell, several carriages drove into the Unicorn Castle. At one of the outdoor pavilions in the castle where you can see the entire Port Tilly Lake, Daniel stood with his hand on the side of the stone fence, enjoying the view of the lake. Sunset view.
Earlier, several candidates for successor to Dawn Castle had approached Daniel, hoping that the Viscount could arbitrate for them. The sons of Daniel and Raffles met several times in private, and the second son of Raffles promised to the Viscount. As long as Daniel supports him, when he takes the position of lord, he will hand over nearly half of the wealth in the territory.
Although the strength of Dawning Castle was greatly damaged, that meant military strength. The territory of Raffles is still rich. First of all, there is a large area that can be used for farming. Therefore, more than 70% of the food in the Viscount is provided by Dawn Castle. In addition, two high-quality copper mines are also the source of Raffles’ wealth. Copper and iron, which are used as raw materials for weapons and equipment, can provide the lord with a steady stream of wealth no matter what age. Now Daniel has lost Sunset City and the iron ore under its control, so the viscount made a condition to the young man named Sierra.
He will take Serra to the position of lord, but at the same time, Serra must surrender two copper mines.
And this transaction was completed yesterday. Now that Serra had returned to the Castle of Dawn, Daniel sent his two twelfth-level fighters back with him, preparing to kill other competitors, so that Serra could easily win the position of successor.
Daniel is now considering whether to risk attacking Auban's army in order to create some turning points for the current dull situation.
At this moment, the butler came and said in a low voice, "My lord, Mr. Carrett and Miss Lusha are here."
Daniel lifted up his spirits and said happily: "Invite them in."
These two people have met Daniel a few days ago and hope to hire a good killer from them. Today is the time for the two to "deliver". Daniel expects that they can bring some surprises.
These surprises are also important factors in creating a turnaround.
Soon, Daniel saw some people in his study. These people, both men and women, carry some vague aura on their bodies. These breaths are either cold or sharp. No matter what kind of breath it is, it shows the strength of its owner.
"Master Daniel, I am honored to recommend these outstanding adventurers. I guarantee that they are also excellent hunters and killers, and they can complete the tasks you have ordered." Carret is the chairman of the Adventurer Association in the Viscount. The old man who always puts himself in a black robe, with a strong sense of mystery, gestures with his scrawny hands to accentuate his tone.
Daniel made a gesture, and Carrett called several people up immediately. He recommended a total of four candidates. He was a strong man at first. He was wearing heavy armor and carrying two crossed swords behind him. The man has a dark red beard on his rough face, and he doesn't know if he was born with this or he dyed it himself. Karret patted the man and said, "Red beard, he is the scariest butcher in my hand. Level 15 level, but with his engraving ability, he can explode no less than level 17 in a short time. power."
"I call it Killing Time. During that time, Red Beard was an efficient meat grinder that would grind all the targets you need to cut into powder!"
Daniel looked at the man. The man's eyes were deep, his aura was restrained, and he was a real master as Carrett said. Moreover, the ability to increase combat power in a short time allows him to have explosive power above the level, which is a very rare ability. If the opponent does the power of the red beard by mistake, the end will be hatred on the spot.
The Viscount nodded, Carret was overjoyed and pointed to the other side. Red Beard walked over, which meant that he had been selected by Daniel.
The old man went on to introduce the next one, which was a woman. She looks plain, but her figure is unexpectedly full and sexy. She is like a female leopard. An inadvertent movement was full of wildness and explosive power. Danny Le noticed that she had been playing with the short knife in her hand. The black short knife moved flexibly between her five fingers, forming a series of dazzling Actions.
"This is Charlie. She is a thief, assassin, and spy. In short, she is a generalist. And, if you give enough, she can also provide some special services to ensure that she will not be better than the Naga murloc How inferior." Carret said pointedly.
Daniel glanced, that flexible snake waist, slender legs, coupled with her wild explosive power, Daniel believes that she will perform very well on another battlefield. The Viscount nodded and said, "Miss Xia Lier must be satisfied with my price."
Xia Lier's amber eyes shot out, and she smiled lightly and walked to the red beard's side. The pace full of charm deeply attracted the eyes of the Viscount.
The third candidate is a thin man. He stood in silence, holding a gun that was almost as tall as him. Obviously this is a modified musket. It has the same slender body as the owner. The man wears a blindfold on his face, which leaves him with only one eyeball. This dark green eyeball reflected the light in the study, exuding a palpitation color.
"Maduo, but we all call him one-eyed. My lord, he is the best shooter under me. In order to practice shooting shots and shots, Maduo even cut out one of his own eyes. It is this concentration that makes him With today's achievement." Karette patted the man and nodded his left eye.
The man approached the ground and lifted the blindfold of his left eye. Sure enough, under the light, the pitch-black eyes were all black. Daniel nodded and said, "Very good~EbookFREE.me~ I need dedicated talents like you."
The last one was a dwarf. The man who was less than one meter tall grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth. He stepped forward and said: "Let me introduce myself, dear Sir, people call me short. As you can see, I don't have the power of a red beard, let alone the figure of Miss Charyl. Of course, I am too. It’s impossible to shoot a mosquito at a distance of 300 meters like a one-eyed one. But I know you will hire me."
"Oh." Daniel came interested: "Tell me, I want to know your reason."
The dwarf smiled even more proudly: "Because of the poison I formulated, there is no one who can't let it go!"
Carrett added: "The dwarf is an excellent pharmacist under me. He can make out poisons for killing people, and he can also make out a recipe for saving people."
Daniel laughed and said, "I really can't refuse such a talent."
(Isn't the chapter number very strange? It's not that I typed it wrong, it's that the vertical and horizontal directions don't let the 6 and 4 groups together, the egg hurts...)
