The trumpet of victory sounded in Blue Magpie Castle, and all the nobles happily came to the largest hall in Blue Magpie Castle, ready to take a look at the style of Landen.
Under everyone's attention, Landen, wearing Magic Pattern Iron Armor, holding the handle of his saber in his left hand and holding his helmet in his right hand, entered the hall.
Because of the preferential treatment given to Mana-Wielder by the Alivia mainland, and the protection of its believers by the gods, even High-Rank professionals rarely kill other Mana-Wielder with their own hands. Therefore, when Landen entered the scene with bloodstains on his armor, everyone secretly took a deep breath.
The smell of blood filled the room, and everyone could tell that this was a man full of murderous intent.
Except for Count and a few people, more people didn't even dare to look at Landen.
Landen realized that his murderous intent was too strong, and wanted to smile to ease the atmosphere, but his stiff smile looked more attractive, and many nobles who wanted to smile at him did not dare to move.
In front of Count's seat, Landen knelt down on one knee and leaned over to salute.
"Master Count, Baron Gallop's Territory acts as agent for Baron Landen·Gallop, I would like to bring you good news. Since September 16th, because my father and brother were robbed by Barbarian, I was forced to take over the duties of the territory Baron and lead Territory Residents to Gallop Plains for refuge.
With the blessing of God Emperor, our unit defeated more than 40 Barbarian camps in the plains, killed more than a hundred Barbarian people, and rescued the robbed Knight Hundreds of and Reserve Knight rescued more than 350 people of Mana-Wielder and rescued more than 4,000 people. They were welcomed wholeheartedly wherever they went.
After Knight Order under his command fought hard, Rothe recovered, the enemy chief was crowned, and the war subsided, please..."
"Okay!" Count shouted, directly interrupting Landen's report of less than 400 words, and got off the seat to help Landen.
"I just said that all Hark's children are great boys. You did a good job."
"My lord"
"You just said that there are 500 Mana-Wielder in your team?"
"100 Knight, 350 Mana-Wielder, and 300 Barbarian Mana-Wielder who defected."
"Huh!" The sound of inhalation sounded again.
"It's really not easy to place these people in place." Count supported Landen.
"This time the Viscount Rothe family was destroyed by Barbarian. Gallop Family and Rothe Family are from the same clan and branch. You are now Intermediate Knight?"
"Yes, my lord"
"Okay, then you will inherit the title of Viscount Rothe"
"What?" A Viscount from the south suddenly said, Landen subconsciously turned back to look at him, and Viscount immediately sounded the alarm.
"I don't mean anything else," Viscount quickly explained.
Count Bristle-Wolf ignored the noise on the side and continued, "Landen, you have been working hard recently. There are a group of Knight and Territory Residents outside. You, Hark, Ryan and they haven't seen each other for a long time.
A grand dinner should have been held today to celebrate our Northwest Territory's greatest victory over Barbarian in decades. Unfortunately, the castle has been besieged for many days, and there is not enough food and beer.
In this way, Landen, you go back and take care of Territory Residents first, and we will celebrate Tail Moon Festival in three days in this castle!"
"Okay, thank you Lord Count, Landen, Ryan, let's go." Hark, as Count's vassal for many years, knows Count's character very well.
According to Count's calculating character, he would definitely be reluctant to give his family a Viscount collar. Now that Count has spoken, he must immediately solidify the fruits of his labor and take his son to take over all the affairs of Rothe Territory.
So Hark quickly took his sons and left the Blue Sparrow Castle main building.
Seeing the murderous Landen leaving, Count invited several senior professionals away in the name of the vassal meeting, and finally had time to express his stance to his vassals.
"I know what some of you think. You think this guy Landen is lucky and can get a piece of Viscount for free.
But if I tell you, his troops are all barbarians from Grassland and miners from Salt Mine. Now he has brought the miners from Salt Mine and the barbarians from the south of the plain to Blue Sparrow City. The original Salt Mine is short of workers.
If he doesn't go to Rothe Territory, whoever goes will have to let Salt Mine continue to produce salt.
If he is not allowed to return to Rothe Territory, whoever is in Rothe Territory will have to take charge of his team of several hundred people.
Who among you can transform a miner? Who can block his team?" Count asked his subordinates.
"Ah? Those people are really the barbarians and workers on Gallop Plains?"
"Then can he let Salt Mine continue to produce? He can't let Knight, who is loyal to him, return to Salt Mine, right?"
"I thought he brought reinforcements from other Gallop Family"
"As for whether he can let Salt Mine produce and where he can find workers, I think I have Blue Dragon Family's representative to talk to him." Count said calmly.
"Landen! You surprise me so much." At this moment, outside the main building of Blue Sparrow Castle, Hark hugged Landen.
Although Hark also roughly guessed the origin of Landen's army, and also knew that even if Landen took over the Viscount leadership, he would still have to worry about the livelihood of thousands of people, but this moment was undoubtedly the most glorious moment for the Gallop Family in the northwest of the Dragon Kingdom in hundreds of years.
"Good job, Landen" Ryan and Obert also hugged Landen one by one. Now Landen has become an intermediate warrior and is taller than his two brothers. Neither of them are used to hugging their taller brother.
"Father, brother, when did you come here? Ever since I heard that you were kidnapped by Barbarian, I have been looking for you. I found Gray Goose's Salt Mine from the river outside our Gallop Family Great Forest."
"Your father and I have been doing business on Gallop Plains for several years, how could we be caught by a few barbarians?" Hark smiled and led Landen out of the castle.
Raul very considerately prepared Black-Scaled Horse for several people. From Blue Magpie Castle to Rothe City, it only took less than an hour for a few people to use it lightly.
"That piece of land belongs to our family?"
"Hey, originally there were more sheep than these, but they marched too fast and killed a lot of them."
Outside the small town of Rothe Castle, a family of four was blocked on the way into the castle by more than 1,300 sheep, more than 400 beasts of burden and more than 4,000 migrant people.
Hark was silently calculating Landen's current strength in his heart.
In a word, even if all the animals from Landen were given to Count Bristle-Wolf, the entire Northwest Territory land might not dare to accept them. How much feed would be needed every day?
In addition, there are more than 4,000 Territory Residents, 600 Mana-Wielder, and even Count may not be able to afford it.
"Landen, you, did you move the entire Gallop Plains here?"
"It's not the whole one, it's the one south of the Gallop River." Landen is relatively calm.
"But with so many animals, we can't even feed Rothe and Gallop (Baron) even if they are bald."
"Dad, there's no need to pluck out the bald animals. Many of the livestock here will be able to get rid of them soon."
Landen brought Hark and his two brothers to his core camp first. Raul and Albert had been waiting here for a long time.
Hark was surprised to walk into the 6-meter-high main tent of Landen. Here he did not see the piles of sacks containing salt; he ignored the Magic Pattern Armor, Magic Weapon; I didn't notice the boxes of Gold Coin on the ground, but I saw Wendy painting Magic Pattern in the tent.
"Dad, come here. These accounts include the livestock, materials, and coins in our territory before I left. Here is also a roster of our population." Landen brought his family here with a very clear purpose. He quickly handed over the accounts and allowed his father to return Baron Gallop.
"Landen, who is she?"
"Ah? Oh, this is Wendy. She and several others are Apprentice in the territory." Landen was in a hurry to give his account and did not elaborate.
After giving the account to Hark, Landen took Hark and Albert to Gallop's old camp, letting the Territory Residentss greet their real Baron, Hark·Gallop.
