Chapter 110: Chapter 109: What a difficult task… (updated by the diligent worker again!)
Translator: 549690339
Cordoville was the most prosperous city in the southern province of the Empire because it was connected to the four major passes of the southern province. To the east was the transportation hub of the Empire’s golden port, Dylan bass, and to the north was the Empire Avenue leading directly to the imperial capital, with its unique geographical advantage, Cordoville was one of the top trading centers in the entire steel arms empire!
As the lord of this city’s territory, it could be said that it was a blissful job where one could receive money just by sitting and receiving it. However, as the current lord of this city, Varys. Bercion was panicking in his heart!
His father had been recruited by the king and had entered the imperial capital to become the Finance Minister of the Empire. He was going to help the current militaristic king to manage the terrible financial situation.
Before he left, his father had passed on the responsibility of being a lord to him. As the eldest son with many younger siblings, Varys was very surprised that he could be appointed as a Lord so quickly. Even though his father had been gone for almost three months.., he still could not wake up from this dreamy joy.
However, he did not expect that before he had enjoyed himself for long, a bolt of lightning from the clear sky had almost struck him into a retard.
Molondor… had fallen! !
When the first knight who escaped from Molondor reported this news, he even thought it was a prank. However, when dozens of knights came back and said the same thing, he understood… “…”. His good days had come to an end!
The bersion family had been in charge of this trading city for generations. The family was rich in outstanding businessmen and politicians. In the past 700 years, the family had produced six prime ministers, four finance ministers, and even two Chief Grand Secretaries.
But… only a general who had never made outstanding military achievements! !
It wasn’t that there hadn’t been any talents in this area in the past hundreds of years, but the family had never tried to nurture them in this area!
As a family that controlled a huge amount of finances, if the family was still in the habit of fighting, the king probably wouldn’t have tolerated their family’s prosperity for so long.
Thus, the problem came. The family had taught them how to manage finances, how to deal with cunning politicians, how to scheme against those chamber of Commerce Giants, and how to bargain.
But they were not taught how to deal with the orcs when they attacked… …
Varys did not know what to do. He reckoned that his father, the finance minister, also did not know what to do. After all, this kind of thing was impossible in most people’s knowledge, and no one would learn how to prevent it…
Due to the interference of inexplicable energy, the arcane enchantment of the city had been determined to be temporarily disabled. The only thing he could do now was to listen to the advice of some knights who had been in the north to set up the city defense and send people to the imperial city to ask for help.
To be honest, if he was not afraid of losing face, he would have gone to the imperial city to ask for help himself. But he knew that if he did that, his identity as the heir would not fall into his hands again after the orc incident, it would definitely not fall into his hands again!
“Lord Varys, another knight has escaped from there!”A burly middle-aged knight in gorgeous armor came forward to report.
“Oh?”Varys was excited. “Bring him here…”
In the past few days, other than setting up the city defense, the only reliable thing he had done was to promote the truly capable knights!
For example, the man in front of him was a veteran who had participated in many battles in the north. However, due to his upright character, he had been ostracized by his colleagues in the south and had not been successful.
After all, it did not matter whether the knights in the south could fight or not. The nobles wanted the knights to be tall, handsome, stylish, and suitable for appearances. Moreover, they could speak eloquently. Such knights could be placed in an important position.
He had been like this in the past. However, at this juncture, he knew that he could not be like this no matter how unreliable he was. Therefore, he hurriedly organized a selection to select a group of real knights who could fight, the real knights who could protect him when the orcs attacked.
It was also during the selection that he understood how useless the usual guards were. After seeing more than ten of his guards being peed on by this old knight in front of him with his right hand.., while his left hand was directly chopped off with a wooden knife, Varys not only did not despise his rudeness, but decisively promoted this short and thin old man to become his Chief Knight!
This old knight was called Dane, with his sincerity, he said to Varys from the bottom of his heart, “My lord, if you want to find knights who can really fight, why don’t you choose from those who can escape? It will definitely be much more efficient than your selection in those flowery shelves!”
Varys was not an idiot. As a noble who had received an elite education since young, his mind was still very quick. He almost instantly understood the reason behind the other party’s words.
The Knights in the south had always been overconfident. There were those who dragged relationships, those who faked battle achievements, and those who could rise to the top were mostly eloquent, even if there were some who could fight.., in this leisurely life, there were only a few who could maintain their standards. If one were to pick from their pile, even if one were to break their heads, there would probably not be many who could be picked out.
On the contrary, those who could escape from the attacks of the orcs and escape from the pursuit of the orc wolf cavalry were mostly people who had some skill!
As expected, after listening to old Dane’s suggestion, Varys picked out quite a number of good fighters from those knights who had escaped!
Most of them could push the guards in front of him to the ground and beat them up. There were even a few knights who maintained exquisite bronze battle Qi. This made him very satisfied, and he immediately felt a lot of comfort in his heart.
However, there were still too few of them, so he had been looking forward to two more escaping knights coming back. Therefore, he was very enthusiastic when he heard that another knight had come back.
“Have you inquired about this person’s background?”Varys put his hand on old Dane’s shoulder and asked intimately.
Old Dane frowned slightly. In his eyes, the other party’s overly enthusiastic attitude was a little deliberate. However, as a noble, he had given him the face and treatment that he should have given, so he could not find any fault with it. Immediately, he felt relieved, he said respectfully, “This person is called Rob Duca, and he is the head knight under the fourth son of the Lord of Morondor, Phil Tross. I think highly of this guy!”
“Oh? What do you mean?”Varys’eyes lit up.
Dane said, “First of all, the resume of this guy. He was an ordinary soldier who served in the north. He had participated in several battles in the north and survived. He was highly recommended by his superior to the Knight Academy. In the end, although he didn’t choose to go to the north to explore the wilderness and chose to come to the south to enjoy decadence, his experience in facing the orcs was invaluable. It was different from those families who spent money to go to the Knight Academy and then came directly to the south after graduation. Moreover…”. “…”
“And what?”Varys asked.
“According to his personal information, he didn’t escape alone this time. He even successfully protected the bloodline of the nobles, including a noble woman and two children. This is not a simple matter!”Old Dane said seriously.
Varys nodded in surprise. The knights who came back before said that the orcs had sent special wolf cavalry to hunt them. This guy should not be an exception.., to be able to escape alone under those conditions is already very impressive, this guy can actually escort women and children all the way here, no matter what means used, it is really not simple ah!
“I am more interested now, Dane,”said Varys, with a twinkle in his eye, “So, call him in, and bring in the noble woman and child he is protecting!”.
———- —
“Knight Rob Dukakosia?”At this time outside the court of nobility, has been waiting outside Rob finally wait for the call.
“Lord Varys asks you to go in with Lady icasio and the son of Lord Fair!”
“Yes, my Lord!”Said rob with a polite smile.
After the messenger had led the way, Rob turned to the so-called lady icasio and winked. “Boss, it’s exactly what you said!”
“Shut up. Look ahead. During the mission, call her ‘madam’. Don’t give yourself away…”. “And you!”The lady turned her head fiercely and looked at the two little dolls behind her who were looking around curiously, “You just lost your father. Can’t you at least keep a low profile?”
“Oh…”the two dolls said with sullen faces.
F * ck… … ! Rain Girl, who was playing the role of a noblewoman, not only complained in her heart, “It’s really quite a test to pass the test by following these pig teammates!”!
