Chapter 27 Cutting out the roots
Chapter 27 Cutting out the roots
In the middle of the harvest month (September), the harvest celebrations are held as scheduled.
This is the grandest celebration in the Principality of Stars, second only to the New Year.
At this time of year, all noble territories would hold celebrations to celebrate the year's harvest and pray for a good harvest in the coming year.
Since the beginning of the month, caravans and foreign travelers have entered the Glittering City one after another.
By the day of the harvest festival, the Glittering City was already crowded with people and filled with a festive atmosphere.
In the glittering castle, in the banquet hall decorated with lights and colors, the invited guests were drinking and chatting happily, and the sound of laughter could be heard everywhere.
In the corner of the hall, a group of young men and women gathered together, eating delicious food and chatting about gossip in a lively atmosphere.
"I heard that Lord Storm has been in a coma and hasn't woken up yet. His sons are fighting for the title and their brains are almost broken."
"That's normal. After all, it's the title of Earl. If I were in your shoes, I would definitely fight for it with all my might."
"It is said that the wife of Count Storm also hired a wizard to treat Count Storm. Tsk, tsk, I didn't expect that the legendary wizard actually exists."
"Haha, they are just a bunch of guys pretending to be gods and ghosts. They only know some acrobatic tricks, and they are no different from the magicians who perform acrobatics in the circus. I have also heard about this. In the end, the so-called wizard was unable to cure the Earl of Storm's illness, and was later stabbed to death by the Earl of Storm's second son."
The legends of wizards have a considerable market in upper class society.
As the topic unfolded, many people showed interest and joined the conversation with their glasses raised.
"Come to think of it, there seems to be a wizard in Black Rock City as well."
"You are talking about Sunan, the second son of the previous Flash Baron. I heard that Black Rock City can develop into what it is now because of his efforts behind the scenes."
"real or fake?"
When the brothers Keyi and Sunan were driven out of Shining City and exiled to Black Stone City in disguise, almost no one was optimistic about this pair of brothers in distress.
After all, Blackrock City is located on the border of Golden Rock Province, with a poor geographical location. There is also the serious threat of the Black-Scaled Lizardmen nearby, so its development potential is pitifully low.
The two brothers, who were holding a bad hand, could never be a match for the current Flash Baron.
As soon as Owen integrates the forces in the territory, he will have time to deal with them.
In everyone's eyes, the two brothers were almost dead.
But the subsequent developments were full of twists and turns, beyond many people's expectations.
Not only did Blackrock City restart the Blackrock Mine, earning a steady stream of gold coins, it also wiped out the Blackscale Lizardmen in one fell swoop.
Today, anyone can see the thriving and growing potential of Black Rock City.
If Black Stone City is allowed to continue to develop, it may become one of the most important cities in Jinyan Province in a few years.
Many people are exploring the reasons behind the changes in Black Rock City.
Hearing that it might be related to Sunan, many people present were skeptical.
After all, Su Nan's shy and introverted personality is no secret in the aristocratic circle. Compared with his talented older brother, he is not even a little bit inferior.
It is impossible for such a person to be the mastermind behind the changes in Blackrock City.
"This whole wizard thing is nonsense."
A young man snorted disdainfully.
"Su Nan is just a loser who can't even practice breathing techniques. What great things can such a person accomplish?"
"Black Rock City is just a bit lucky. They can't be a force to be reckoned with at all. My father can easily deal with them without even Lord Owen having to do anything."
Someone recognized the young man who was speaking as the son of Lord Zorf, who was the first to surrender to Owen. He smiled and did not refute.
The conversation quickly turned to other topics.
Although Black Rock City has been in the limelight recently, as Lord Zolf's son said, no one believes that Black Rock City can compete with Baron Owen, who almost controls the entire Flash Territory.
There is no need to even send out Baron Owen's elite cavalry regiment. Any one of the three lords is capable of defeating Blackrock City.
At the same time, in the meeting room, Owen and the three lords were sitting opposite each other.
"My two nephews are really amazing. They created such a big scene without making any noise. It seems that I really underestimated them before."
Owen gently shook the wine glass in his hand, and the scarlet wine shone with a charming luster under the light.
"Restart the Black Rock Mine, wipe out the Black Scaled Lizardmen, and form a cavalry regiment. If we allow them to continue to grow, they may become strong enough to compete with me."
"You are joking, sir. It is not that easy to form a cavalry regiment. Even if Blackrock City has enough gold coins, they have no way to buy enough war horses. Forming a cavalry regiment is just a fantasy after all."
Zolf, a tall and muscular man, said in a muffled voice.
The breathing method he practiced focused on physical fitness, so he was exceptionally big and strong, nearly two meters tall.
When the previous Flash Baron was still in office, Zolf was already a famous warrior. After he broke through and became a top knight not long ago, his reputation became even more famous.
"That's right. Training cavalry is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task. Even if Black Rock City can raise a cavalry regiment in such a short period of time, its combat effectiveness is very limited and there is nothing to be afraid of."
Daven said with a smile, a hint of disdain in his eyes.
If a cavalry regiment was so easy to form, he would have done it himself long ago.
Two young kids who are still wet behind the ears have wild dreams as soon as they have a little money. They really don't know their place.
Seeing that his two colleagues had spoken, Norwood was not willing to be outdone and spoke in agreement.
Owen narrowed his eyes and took a sip of wine.
Unlike Zolf and the other two who only speculated based on hearsay, he had definite intelligence proving that Blackrock City had domesticated a new type of mount that seemed to have a certain level of combat capability.
Blackrock City formed a cavalry regiment with the new type of mount as the core.
According to reports from spies, Blackrock City suffered minimal losses in the battle to wipe out the Black-Scaled Lizardmen.
It is very likely because of this cavalry regiment.
From this point of view, this cavalry regiment cannot be underestimated.
Given time, maybe it will really grow into an elite army.
When he thought of this, Owen couldn't help but feel a little anxious deep in his heart.
We can't delay it any longer!
It's time to nip the thorns and eliminate the last hidden dangers!
As long as the two brothers die, the Flashing Territory will be completely in his pocket, and he won't have to worry about any accidents anymore!
"What do you think about Black Rock City?" Owen asked calmly:
The three lords present were all cunning men, and they immediately understood Owen's plan when they heard this.
Zolf was the first to speak: "As long as the lord gives the order, I am willing to lead the troops to attack Black Stone City."
Devin and Norwood were a step slower and couldn't help cursing in their hearts. This big man with thick eyebrows and big eyes was very good at flattering others and his face was as thick as a city wall.
Although they cursed inwardly, the two men were not slow to act and asked to fight.
Seeing the loyalty of the three, Owen smiled with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Forget about sending troops to attack. It would be too ugly. Besides, although the military strength of Black Rock City is not strong, it would still cost a lot of manpower to take it down."
Zolf and the other two looked at each other.
Daveen hesitated and said, "What do you mean, sir?"
Owen smiled mysteriously and said, "As long as Keyi and Sunan are dead, Black Stone City will naturally return to my hands."
The three of them understood what was going on immediately and showed a look of sudden enlightenment.
Assassination!
This is almost a universal skill for nobles.
However, it is generally not a good idea to send your own people to handle such matters, for fear of being caught.
But if he doesn't send his men, from what channel does Lord Owen plan to hire people?
It is said that Key has been promoted to Grand Knight.
It is not easy to assassinate a great knight!
