Lord Saren: I have a proficiency panel

Chapter 21
  Two days later, the riots in the territory gradually subsided.

Under Caton's invitation and management, Lodi and his party officially entered Talon Fortress.

In the fortress, the blood has been cleansed. Although some places are still in chaos, at least the living area has a new look.

Lodi moved into a house exclusively owned by the lord. The house has a front yard, a back garden, and a two-story villa. Inside there is a bathroom, study room, wine cellar, exclusive training room, and meeting hall. This used to be the residence of Julius, but now all his family members were killed. Lodi pardoned his servants, but they were all demoted to military slaves and slaves. The house was completely empty.

As soon as he moved in, he entered the bathroom and took a comfortable hot bath in the spacious bathroom. He thoroughly washed away the fatigue from traveling these days and the blood stains from the war, and enjoyed the treatment of a lord.

Barron and his daughter Joshua were placed in the house next door. Julius' sister's family once lived there. The family had a bad reputation throughout the territory. Julius' sister loved to torture and kill slaves and military slaves. She even set aside a room to collect the leg bones of slaves for unknown purposes. If it weren't for the fact that she didn't show much strength during the battle, Lodi would have even thought she was studying necromancy.

Because of the public outrage, Julius' sister died tragically during the purge the day before yesterday. In return for the torture of the slave, two of her leg bones were chopped off alive, and then she was hacked to death with random knives.

Lodi actually abhors this kind of killing, because this behavior fully reflects that this army is actually a force with no discipline and no code of conduct. But he didn't stop it at the time.

Transforming this force is something to be done later, not now.

When Barron and Joshua moved into the house, Roddy personally went to help. The house is always filled with the smell of blood, and it may take ten days and a half to get rid of it.

Since entering Istia, Joshua has always stayed in the carriage, served by several maids, and has hardly come out once. Even for this move, Barron directly ordered someone to bring the carriage in. The two doctors who followed them were always busy.

It seemed that Joshua was sick. Lodi always felt that there was no need for Barron to bring his daughter to such a place to suffer. But once it comes, let’s make peace with it. This was Barron's family matter, and he couldn't get involved.

After settling the accommodation issue, Barron came to Lodi's room. The two sat around the warm stove and finally had the opportunity to make some necessary exchanges.

Barron was shocked by Lodi's decisiveness and boldness this time, and was even more surprised by his subsequent bloody purge and complete annihilation. Sometimes he doubted whether this Lodi was really only sixteen years old. I'm very curious about what this kid went through when he was a child, so that his behavior does not look like a pampered little nobleman at all, but more like an experienced little warlord.

"In fact, you should have already planned Julius's raid, right?" Barron asked.

"Yes, Teacher Barron." Luo Di nodded honestly and said apologetically: "I don't want to tell you because I am afraid that you will stop me and shake my determination."

Barron asked: "Have you ever thought about what you would do if you missed?"

"I have absolute confidence that I will not miss." Luo Di said with a smile on his face.

Seeing the confidence on Roddy's face, Barron was suddenly shocked. Could it be that this time he didn't show his true strength at all? Is that why he is so confident?

Why does this child grow up so fast?
  He calmed down and sighed slightly: "Although I am your teacher, it seems that I don't understand your strength at all. But there is one thing you said wrong."

"What?" Lodi asked.

"I will not stop you." Barron said solemnly: "Master Zemo's order is very clear. You are the leader and I am the assistant. I will give you advice, but I will never stop you from doing anything. I will I will do my best to assist you, and you can trust me completely on this."

Seeing that Barron was getting serious, Luo Di had no choice but to apologize again: "I understand, Teacher Barron. I will discuss it with you in the future."

Barron's brows relaxed slightly, he pondered for a while, and then said: "In order to eliminate the impact of this matter, it seems that we need to visit Lord Zemo's old friends as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm afraid that those in the Seventh Legion who are close to Julius There are stakeholders who are going to give us trouble.”

"I was about to tell you about this." Lodi nodded: "Katon has already reported to me. Our Taron Knights belong to the third battalion of the Seventh Army. There are two battalion officers and Yuriu. They are in good company. To solve their troubles, it is best to find their superiors to make peace. If we cannot find a suitable middleman, then we can only send them heavy gifts and turn them into our friends. After all, in When you do things in the military, you look at interests, not friendship."

Barron was stunned for a moment and glanced at Roddy with some surprise. He thought that with Lodi's way of dealing with things, he might once again use some kind of violence or confrontation to solve the problem. Unexpectedly, Luo Di also knows the ways of the world.

This time, the two of them completely thought about going together.

"Of course we have to take care of the camp officers." Barron nodded: "But for them, killing people as soon as we came here is really too much. It's not easy to get back on track. So I plan to first visit an old friend of the Baron with the Baron’s handwritten letter, and having him come forward may make things much simpler.”

"Which old friend?" Lodi asked. "An overseer of the Seventh Legion, Baron Swift of the Holy Radiance Knight. He is a Legion Baron and has an extraordinary status in the Seventh Legion." Barron replied.

Lodi was surprised and delighted when he heard about this position. In order to maintain the relationship this time, he had been prepared to spend a lot of money. If the Baron can really be persuaded to come forward, wouldn't it be easy to win over the two battalion officers?
  What's more, Julius was the one who made the mistake in the first place, and strictly speaking, his behavior is understandable.

"Then please ask Teacher Barron to go to Trois-Rivières in person!" Lodi nodded and said.

"Aren't you going to go with me? I also want to introduce you to Baron Swift so that you can expand your network." Barron suggested.

Lodi shook his head and said: "The situation in the territory is unstable now, and Caton is not completely reliable yet. I have to stay to take care of the situation. Joshua and the gold coins we brought are still here. The meeting with the Baron is long ahead. , there is no need to rush, after all, the territory is our basic base camp."

Barron then thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He suddenly felt a little ashamed. This young man had thought more carefully than he had thought.

"Okay." Barron nodded and said, "I will set off to Trois-Rivières with a few attendants tomorrow. I will leave the territory to you for the time being."

After the two agreed, they relaxed and drank for a while before Barron got up and left.

Lodi stayed in the meeting hall, closed his eyes and rested for a while, then silently opened his panel:
  [Name: Lodi Saren]

【Age: 17】

【Strength: 3.7】

[Agility: 4.0]

[Endurance: 4.3]

[Swordsmanship: Level 3012 (4000/)]

[Archery: Level 1600 (4000/)]

[Like Spear: Tier 18 (4000/)]

[Close-to-body combat: third level (2759/4000)]

[Horse Riding: Level 1899 (4000/)]

[Green Frost Breathing Method: Level 15 (1000/)]

After the new year, the age on the panel has become seventeen.

These days, I have neglected to practice because I have been on the road. Only a few actual battles in the past two days caused a short-term increase in the panel value.

Next, it’s time to get into the rhythm of practice again.

In addition, the territory went through a purge, the staff was greatly reduced, and the personnel became chaotic. This is the time when everything is possible. A complete administrative system must be built as soon as possible.

However, the most important thing is to completely transform this army and train it into a warrior who is only loyal to itself. This is the foundation for establishing itself in this chaotic area.

Thinking of this, Luo Di couldn't help but rub his eyebrows. Next, he will be very busy.
