"I am Pete·Bristle-Wolf. Please give God Emperor His Majesty as a witness. I am willing to be loyal to Lord Landen·Gallop forever and become your sword and shield. Please accept my loyalty!"
"I am Kenan Doyles. I ask God Emperor His Majesty to bear witness. I am willing to be loyal to Lord Landen·Gallop forever and become your sword and shield. Please accept my loyalty!"
"I am Lune·Egret..."
"I'm Alf Fatt..."
"I am Netherland·Will..."
In Lannia's room, five Intermediate Knight swore allegiance to Landen. They specially invited Landen to come to the most luxurious room in the cave. In the presence of Albert, Neil, Raul and other Landen Family Knight, they collectively swore an oath to Landen.
Seeing the five Intermediate Knights kneeling down and paying allegiance to him, Landen's heart was filled with excitement. He had become a lord from the first day he came to this world, but from that time on he was forced to leave his territory and was crushed by Barbarian and Warcraft.
After finally entering Gallop Plains and gaining short-term safety, they still had to pretend to be a small tribe and wander around. Not only did they have to worry about the main force of the Grey Goose Tribe returning to the plains, but they also had to be careful before every attack.
Today, five Intermediate Knight have pledged their allegiance to themselves. Behind them are dozens of Knight and two hundred Mana-Wielder. Landen now has who can rival them. With the strength of Count, he no longer has to fear the main force of Gray Goose. He knows that from this moment on, defeating the main force of Gray Goose is no longer for survival, but to clearly prove that he can rule the entire Gallop.
"I accept your loyalty, everyone Knight. As you know, my family originates from the Gallop Kingdom royal family and is the natural ruler of Gallop Plains. Now I have not only rescued all the Human Race Mana-Wielder south of the Gallop River, but I also have the loyalty of most Barbarian!
I will lead the family back to Gallop Plains and restore the glory of our ancestors, but before that, I need to lead all Mana-Wielder of Salt Mine southward and eliminate the remaining power of the Grey Goose Tribe."
"As you wish, we will follow your footsteps." Five Knight leaned forward and saluted.
The Knight behind Landen were also very excited to see such a scene. The most excited one was Albert. In his expectation, the best outcome of going north to Gallop Plains this time was to return to Northwest Territory and seize the Viscount title from Rothe Territory, allowing Gallop Family to return to the past era. However, it only took Landen more than a month to break through the strength of Count. Now he can compete with Gallop Plains and restore the family to the glory of a century ago.
In the room, Landen and several Intermediate Knight learned about the situation before they came to Salt Mine, Pete·Bristle-Wolf, Kenan Doyles and Lune Bailu are all from the Dragon Kingdom, and were once Count or Marquis The captain of Knight Order, who failed in the power struggle in the past and was exiled to Salt Mine.
Alf Fatt and Netherland·Will son came from the Human Race inland and wandered between Human Race countries due to internal strife within their families, eventually falling into the trap of Salt Mine Camp.
The three local Knight have all touched the threshold of Senior Knight, but they were exiled here after failing to break through. Since then, their combat effectiveness has dropped to ordinary Intermediate Knight due to malnutrition; Alf and Netherland have reached the limit of their potential, but after many years of wandering, they have very rich combat and adventure experiences. In a real battle, the three local Knight cannot compete with them one on one.
Among the five Intermediate Knights of Salt Mine, the most special one is Pete·Bristle-Wolf. As a member of the Bristle-Wolf Family, Pete is the distant nephew of today's Count Bristle-Wolf and is Fernando·Bristle-Wolf's cousin, under questioning from Landen, Pete admitted that he was exiled because he had frequently smuggled with Barbarian and was reported by the Blue Dragon Family of Royal Capital.
Blue Dragon Family, as the local agent of the Salt and Iron Department, was targeted by their family, which shows that Pete's smuggling business is related to the Salt and Iron Department's main business. Landen even speculated that Landen was a former After touching Senior Knight's Pete·Bristle-Wolf, Count should have been trained by Count as the most potential younger generation in the family, so they gave Pete such a lucrative job as smuggling salt and iron.
Pete did indeed complete the money-making task assigned to him by the old Count very well, but he did so well that he suffered retaliation from the monopoly department. Count could not withstand the pressure from above and chose to sacrifice Pete.
Of course, these are just Landen's imagination. Considering that the Count family itself has limited resources, it may be possible to make room for Eldest Young Master.
Pete did not mention the real reason for his exile, and Landen naturally could not hurt his face, but then the two brought up Lannia, and Pete actually planned to give Lannia to Landen as a gift to swear allegiance.
Landen, who grew up in an era where everyone was equal, hates this world from the bottom of his heart. Mana-Wielder, who is arrogant about everything and regards his fellow humans as commodities, is unable to change now, but he does not want to follow this trend.
"Lannia is an excellent manager and is also your wife. You guys should live well." Landen rejected Pete. He said one more thing in his heart. In the future, Lannia might still think you are too low.
Landen announced to the five Knight that he would lead the entire Salt Mine's Mana-Wielder and cavalry south to engage in a decisive battle with the remnants of the Grey Goose Tribe, allowing the five Knight to make various preparations.
Of course, Landen also knows that although these five Intermediate Knight are the leaders of Human Race among Salt Mine, they have nothing to do with them. Combat power, or really Salt Mine's Mana-Wielder, has been working as a miner for at least several years. His previous riding skills and swordsmanship have long been rusty, and he urgently needs to replenish equipment and nutrition.
Fortunately, Landen had accumulated a lot of equipment, horses and Long-Haired Sheep before, so the first thing Landen gave to the Intermediate Knights was, It means to re-arm, let all the junior, low-level Knight, and even the stronger Mana-Wielder get Iron Armor, weapons, and start to resume horseback riding training.
Of course, once the training begins, all Mana-Wielder must be moved to the camp outside Salt Mine. After all, the terrain in Salt Mine is narrow and narrow, which is not suitable for hundreds of cavalry to practice together.
According to Landen's request, the main Mana-Wielder and population of the entire Salt Mine will be moved to Gray Goose Camp outside Salt Mine within five days. Among them, Knight will give priority to move out and will be trained together with the original Knight of Landen.
The other Mana-Wielders assisted the Mana-Lesss in carrying their luggage. After the Knights' riding skills had almost recovered, the Mana-Wielders would join the training. After all, they were more powerful in the Knight formation.
"Sir, this is my brother Mace·Frost-Wolf. He used to be the guardian of our family caravan Knight. Thank you for saving him." Makoto·Frost-Wolf
Just as Landen finished talking to several Intermediate Knight, Makoto led a Junior Knight in. This Junior Knight looked somewhat similar to Makoto. He looked like a slightly older Neil with a completely open face.
"Mace·Frost-Wolf pledges allegiance to Lord Landen·Gallop, please God Emperor His Majesty bears witness, and I am willing to be your sword and shield." Mace is very respectful. Originally, in such a scene, it would not be his turn for Junior Knight, who is not very strong, to pay allegiance alone.
But Mace didn't expect that his biological sister could find him and tell him that she and nephew Neil were Landen's capable men, and Makoto was also willing to introduce his biological brother to Landen.
"Very good, I accept your loyalty. I heard that you were the guardian of the family caravan before coming here Knight?"
"Yes, sir. I used to run the Gallop Grassland to Royal Capital trade route. If you need the Royal Capital trade route, I will be there for you."
"Okay, this is what I want! Now this piece of Salt Mine is mine. In the future, we will definitely need to sell salt to the Dragon Kingdom internal road.
This is not smuggling, I will reach a formal production and sales agreement with the Salt and Iron Department."
"Yes, I am willing to serve you."
Landen is very happy. The large number of Mana-Wielder among Salt Mine has brought more levels of talents. After all, being able to be squeezed out by the family shows that he has some ability and has achieved results in certain things.
