Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 223 Your Caravan, I Agree

"That's possible." Lowry replied calmly, "At least the Church of Wealth can pretend to be blind."

It's no problem if they can't win the fight, and being robbed is also a disaster that the caravan is bound to encounter... But for such a big church, knowing who the robbers are but not even daring to retaliate, that's more than just a matter of shame.

Especially in a place like Fortune Church where businessmen gather, they like to consider cost issues the most.

This situation will inevitably affect believers' perception of the church.

Generally speaking, even if you are covered with a piece of rag that no one thinks is unnecessary, it will provide a step for the other side to slide down smoothly.

But if you don’t even bring this piece of cloth... No, Luskaniah may not think of this, but it is impossible for the White Dragon King to have no reaction at all.

There is only one possibility for him to do this.

"You used your wealth to teach others a lesson, and you used it perfectly to show your power." Lowry asked dissatisfiedly, "But now you want me to bear the consequences?
Your Majesty, you should know that the reward you gave is useless in this situation."

"Don't be so angry!" Knowing that his original choice was the source of this trouble, the White Dragon King's tone became much more humble.

After all, Lowry on the opposite side was really a jerk.

But he had no choice at that time!

As he spent more and more time outside, King White Dragon realized that if he wanted to ascend to the throne, the biggest obstacle would not be his brothers and sisters...even his own father didn't have that ability.

The biggest trouble is the church, which he is most wary of and dissatisfied with because it represents the close cooperation between the White Dragon and the royal power.

He had to do something to make the other side think longer... at least not rush out and cause trouble on the day he ascended the throne.

However, he would never directly cause trouble for the Storm Church, or even be the first one to cause trouble for them.

This was not because of the Storm Lord, who was considered the most active among the gods, but because the Storm Church was too powerful in the Northern Kingdom, and there were even many hidden powers that the royal family had not been able to find.

There is no problem in confronting the other party, but the White Dragon King will not cause trouble to the other party for no reason.

Among the six major churches, the easiest to deal with are actually the Earth Church and the Wealth Church.

The Earth Church has too many branches, so if one side is in trouble, the other side may applaud.

Even if I don't feel anything, I'm unlikely to help.

Therefore, as long as you don't escalate the hatred between you and the church to the level of God, it's fine if you offend the Church of Earth.

When you need help from the other party, just change the branch to deal with.

And the Church of Wealth is a loose group of people.

Even though they shout loudly, businessmen... value profit over morality.

This kind of force formed in the form of a chamber of commerce alliance is actually very easy to deal with. When others are beaten, other caravans will only take the opportunity to run away and will never rush up to help.

Of course, if the enemy was easy to deal with, it might be a different matter...but enemies who dared to rob the caravan of the Church of Wealth were generally not easy to deal with.

If it were someone else, they might choose to establish the authority of the Church of the Earth, which has a "kind" character and will definitely not seek revenge.

But, he carried with him a white dragon!
Ruth Kania, when she was so excited about the robbery, she almost told the merchant caravan her full name so that they would immediately hand her over to her when they saw her!

So what is King White Dragon hesitating about?
As for making enemies... he was actually careful to avoid being disrespectful to the goddess of wealth herself, and acted as if he was only after the money.

To put it bluntly, what he looked down on was only the church, and had nothing to do with God himself.

Just as he thought, the goddess of wealth had no interest in dealing with these trivial matters.

Moreover, using one's own strength to protect one's property has always been her creed.

Then what does he have to worry about? Just rob it.

As for the hatred that had been created, he had already been prepared to bear it.

After all, his goal was indeed achieved.

He was aggressive, hot-tempered, and a bit reckless. When he, together with the greedy and vicious Luscanija, directly stepped forward to participate in the fight for the throne, all the major churches hesitated, and no one spoke out to stop him.

They were all worried that whoever spoke would have to endure endless revenge from these two extreme personalities.

Moreover, no one can guarantee that they can really block the other party's path to advancement by going out to stop them.

Faced with a major incident involving an enemy who is willing to do anything and causes trouble for no reason, anyone would hesitate.

Then, he sat on the throne smoothly.

As for those brothers who later rebelled directly because they were dissatisfied with him... no matter who stood behind them or what support they got, it was a royal rebellion, and no one could say that when he came to power, there was any god who was dissatisfied.

The church itself could never say it.

Otherwise, why did you refuse?
As a devout believer and God's favorite, are you unwilling to even convey God's will?

No matter how much those guys hated him, in the end they could only choose to use crooked ways to cause trouble for him.

King White Dragon is not afraid of this.

Most importantly, based on his understanding of Lowry, this guy spoke in this tone, and he must be prepared to catch all the visitors from the Church of Wealth in one fell swoop.

Lori's catch was completely wiped out, and in the words of Baron Gezar, it was a net that would wipe out all his descendants.

He would make sure that his enemies would be wiped out. However, the White Dragon King knew that since Lowry felt that it was not worth it, he had better make up the difference as soon as possible.

At least he took out the money on his own initiative, so he can control the pace and cost.

However, if Lowry were to get it himself through Ruth Kania, it would be a bit too much to bear.

The main thing is that this kid has really high standards.

It's tall and cunning, and it's not a good thing. He didn't even look at it.

But this kind of resource, which even he, as the King of the North, would feel heartbroken if he lost one, really cannot be let Lowry take it easily.

Some things, even if they are left there and never used, you can't have none of them.

As a king who had survived the war, he understood best the significance of the existence of some strategic materials.

But Lowry has always been dismissive of these things, so he acts recklessly.

Of course, King White Dragon also knew in his heart that Lowry was actually reasonable.

If there is something that is truly indispensable, then Lowry will definitely not refuse to exchange it for him... That is, it certainly cannot be an equal exchange, one thing for another.

King White Dragon pondered what good things there were in his warehouse that might tempt Lowry... However, he was reluctant to give away every item that might impress Lowry.

Then he suddenly remembered Lowry's application.

The White Dragon King asked in his most serious tone: "Then, I will grant you permission to set up your caravan, right?"

?

Lowry couldn't help but tilt his head and pick his ears.

He almost thought that his ear holes were stuffed with overly lively feathers!
Then he quickly reacted: “Are you going to make Count Gezar move?
You used me as bait, and now you want to use this as compensation?

Your Majesty, are you thinking too highly of yourself? "

“Lori, Lori, ah Lori~” The White Dragon King couldn’t help but laugh, “You really have the demeanor of Arsalan now!

Everyone understands that your document is just a provocation to Count Gezar, so this is a battle between the two of you.

However, as the King of the North, if I grant you a special license without going through the Noble Office and the Business Office, it proves that I, the King, am dissatisfied with Count Gezar.

There is no way he would continue to have any feelings for you because of this matter.

What else can a nobleman who has been officially declared war on by the king of his own country do except thinking about how to save the lives of his entire family? "

Even his master didn't dare to help him openly.

After the White Dragon King issues this charter, all overt asylum will disappear from the Earldom of Gezar.

The people in that territory couldn't even find a place to go.

No one dared to move.

This is his dignity as a king.

Anyone who dares to challenge will have to face the king's wrath.

"What happened? Why are you making such a fuss?" Lowry asked in confusion, "Just because of your officer?"

"Lori, look... I have ruled the Northern Kingdom for so long, and yet someone dares to secretly become my enemy and plot against the officials around me just to get a position in a noble office." The White Dragon King said calmly, "Even if his family was implicated in the royal family turmoil and had to return to the territory to live.

But, isn’t this how struggles within the royal family have always been?
They are not the first, and they will not be the last.

If he can betray me, the king, when he has the chance because he refuses to accept his fate, what about the others?"

The White Dragon King exhaled softly, "I haven't made a formal move for too long, which is why so many people have lost their respect for me.

Of course, what I want to do most is to kill the high priest of the Storm Church and Schroeder.

Unfortunately, not yet.

Although the God of Storms will not shield his subordinates who have committed serious mistakes, he will definitely not consider it a problem if the intrigues only cause trouble for me as a king.

That person, although he doesn’t care that much about many things, it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t feel uncomfortable at all.”

Lowry could understand.

To put it bluntly, the Lord of Storms is truly the most vivid and most human being among the gods in this world.

Although he is vindictive, he clearly expresses his love, hate and vengeance.

The others...are almost becoming real statues of gods.

The Dark Night Goddess was better, but she was only overly concerned with matters concerning the High Tower Church. Other church affairs were also carried out according to procedures.

But at least you can tell she's alive.

However, if they are human, it means that they will get angry, furious, turn against each other over trivial matters, and even favor their own people.

The White Dragon King is certainly not afraid of the Church of Storms, but he will not overturn the table without having enough evidence to make the Lord of Storms give up those people.
