Strong Beast Tamer and the Princess's Scheme
The moment the tortoise returned to its original size, its shadow covered most of the Earl's Mansion. Only Lance sat in the bright sunlight, leisurely reading the newspaper.
Er Gouzi turned his head and glanced at the turtle. The evil dragon Lance was really something. Did it need a turtle to deal with these humans? It could crush all these human knights under its own paws.
No, we can't let the turtle steal the spotlight; it has to show absolute intimidation.
A low growl came from his throat, and Er Gouzi's two pairs of dog eyes ignited with Netherflame Netherflame, as did his dog paws, head, and massive body.
Humans, witness the flames of hell!
Er Gouzi growled and slowly walked towards the group of knights loyal to Claire. The ferocity emanating from the Hellhound caused some of the knights to instinctively assume defensive stances.
Pureblood Hellhound has three heads.
Even if this two-headed Hellhound wasn't as strong as the three-headed Hellhound, it was enough to put their group of knights in a tough fight.
If you are accidentally touched by the hellfire on the Hellhound during battle, you will disappear instantly.
If bitten by Hellhound, your soul will be sucked into hell.
Even a single Hellhound could plunge them into a bitter and bloody battle, let alone a ferocious giant tortoise that was several times larger than Hellhound.
Their knights' lances might not be able to pierce the giant tortoise's shell.
Fighting a giant tortoise can easily result in being trampled to death or severely injured. These giant tortoises are as big as small mountains, and some sub-dragons may not even be as large as them.
How can they fight? Captain Galuowei wanted to challenge the Earl alone, but in the current situation, even if they went together, they might not be able to win.
In their investigation, the count before them was clearly just an ordinary count who knew a little about medicine preparation, farming, and painting. So why could he control beasts? To tame a ferocious Hellhound, one simply couldn't do it without strength.
Not to mention there was also a giant tortoise as big as a small hill.
They were caught in a dilemma.
In a one-on-one battle against Count Saint Blue, Captain Galuowei was no match for the Hellhound and the Giant Turtle.
It is not the way of a knight to have the Earl himself fight.
Not to mention that the Earl may also be a powerful Extraordinary Person is hiding his true identity.
"Don't be polite with my Pet Beast. All of you, come at me together and don't hold back. If you can kill them, I won't bother you."
Lance doesn't mind being challenged at all. He has been studying diligently for over two thousand years and knows a lot.
He can be Beast Tamer, a hero summoner, a card maker, an alchemist, or even a swordsman who Sword Dao Reaching Divinity.
If someone can eliminate so many of his "identities," then congratulations to that person for unlocking the "End Black Dragon."
He will fight his opponent in his strongest form.
Galuowei, who was loyal to Claire, clearly did not have the ability, but he did not mind giving Saint Blue dozens of more excellent knights.
A true knight will risk his life to protect the honor of knighthood.
Princess Claire struggled to tear her gaze away from the Hellhound and the tortoise. If she had such powerful Pet Beast, she could easily overturn the rebel army of MacDonald.
He's clearly very strong, so why doesn't he have any ambition at all? If Earl Lance had even a little ambition, with Saint Lance's potential, he could easily have renamed this province Saint Blue Province.
Then proceed gradually, and change the name of this kingdom, such as the Saint Blue Kingdom.
But he didn't do that; he was as carefree and undisciplined as a salted fish.
She can't find what she wants, and what she doesn't want will inexplicably appear on Lance's head.
He never considered becoming an earl.
But the title of Earl just happened to fall into his lap.
Beast Tamer, a diviner, and a pharmacist—no wonder he had the courage to pursue the little dragon's mother.
Claire smiled as she thought about it. "It's good that the free-spirited Earl is so nice."
If Count Lance had agreed to marry her yesterday.
In just a few years, with the help of Saint Blue's potential, she could become Queen.
Lance refused.
The other lords of the Red Maple Kingdom absolutely did not have the courage to confront McDonagh.
If she wants to find help, she can only use her status as a princess to borrow the power of other kingdoms, and then wait for her to become Queen to carve out some cities, or even several provinces.
She didn't want to do that; MacDonald became king, and it was a civil war.
If she were to rely on the power of other kingdoms to restore her kingdom, what right would she, as a princess, have to face the people of the Red Maple Kingdom?
If selling out her country for personal gain, she would rather let MacDonald become the king of the Red Maple Kingdom.
However, she now has a new option. When she was rejected by Lance yesterday, the second plan that was originally vague in her mind slowly began to take shape.
Before Lance came to Saint-Blue, she had investigated the current situation of Saint-Blue.
It can be said that the suddenly rising Saint Blue has become the target of suppression by several nearby lords, and even the entire province.
Because Saint Blue has risen too quickly and its foundation is still solid, if Saint Blue continues to develop in this way, it will infringe on their rights.
In addition, a large number of people from many lords' territories fled to Saint Blue, resulting in a massive loss of population, which made those lords even more furious.
In this situation, the lords would naturally unite to stop Saint Blue, as evidenced by the recent conflicts that have been erupting.
Lance had no demands on Saint Blue, nor any interest in expansion. Ticia was able to govern Saint Blue well, but she did not have a clear goal for Saint Blue's future.
This is related to her background; if someone had mentored her, she would have become a qualified minister of the kingdom.
She possessed what Ticia lacked.
With Lance's complete delegation of authority, if she could Entering Sainthood Blue and gain the trust of Lance and Ticia, she could gradually elevate Saint Blue to the level of a "Kingdom".
She doesn't have to Queen, but she can choose someone who can make the kingdom's people happier to govern it.
Lance has that ability.
She didn't tell the knights who followed her about this plan, because too many people would talk, and if Lance found out, it would be difficult to carry out.
It's easy to talk to Ticia. She believes that Ticia should also hope that the "Viscount" she serves can become the "King".
To realize the plan in her mind, she chose to become Lance's knight, voluntarily giving up her identity as a princess.
She was willing to give up the throne for this.
Besides, given Lance's personality, if he were to find himself as king one day, when it comes time to reward those who have rendered meritorious service, he would probably grant her the title of Grand Duke, even if she wasn't a member of the royal family, she could still be a Grand Duke with royal blood.
As for how to dispel Lance's doubts, his mention of "fate" yesterday was enough for her to convince Lance.
"Galuowei, admit defeat."
"Lady Claire"
"I will pledge allegiance to Lance alongside you, and given Lance's ability to judge character, I think he might even allow you to serve under me and become my team members."
