Wilson Gray had a serious expression and a rough and powerful voice, just like a bull;
"Everyone, be quiet. I am going to explain the affairs of the Far North."
The five-centimeter scar on his left cheek made him look quite fierce, and the expressionless face made him look intimidating.
All the nobles below kept silent.
Seeing that everyone was quiet, Wilson Gray continued to speak;
"First of all, the most fertile land in the far north is the Emt Plain, which is the most suitable location for building a territory. I believe everyone has heard of it."
He paused here, glanced at the nobles present, and said:
"Two earl's sons are participating in this development. This place will become a battleground and we cannot afford it."
"The same is true for Hurricane Valley. The terrain is complex and easy to defend but difficult to attack. It will inevitably become the focus of competition between the two earl groups."
This statement was recognized by most of the nobles. Everyone knew that two earl's sons were involved in the development of the Far North.
They are the protagonists of this game.
“So, Lake Besri is the place we should consider.”
Wilson Gray pointed to a huge lake further north in the frontier;
"Besri Lake is where rivers meet. It is rich in aquatic products and surrounded by many rocks. It is suitable for building a territory."
After hearing this, the nobles present all nodded in agreement:
"Indeed, with our strength, it is no problem to take over Lake Besri, and the resources there are enough for us to divide up."
For a while, everyone started discussing it, and there was basically no opposition.
At this moment, Wilson Gray walked up to Ron with a glass of red wine in his hand and a rough step.
"Leonard Ron, I'm glad you can join the alliance."
There was a hint of confusion in his tone, and his smile was stiff, as if he was laughing with gritting his teeth.
"Lord Grey, I am also happy to join the alliance."
Ron raised his glass and pretended to be terrified, making himself look like a frightened rabbit.
"Leonard Ron, your hands are shaking. Are you afraid of me?"
Wilson Gray had a mocking look on his face.
"I, I'm just a little drunk, yes, a little drunk."
Ron made himself shiver as much as possible.
The reason why he did this was simple: the Wilson family and his own Leonard family were sworn enemies.
The reason was that Ron's grandfather's father killed the then head of Wilson's family in the pioneering war more than 60 years ago.
The Wilson family never recovered from the blow and found a remote place to lick their wounds.
After decades of changes, Wilson's father unexpectedly was promoted to the third rank and became a Knight of the Sacred Heart.
From then on, the family became increasingly powerful, surpassing the past. In a battle against a foreign race, the Wilson family won many merits and was awarded the title of Viscount by the kingdom.
It goes without saying that Wilson Gray wants to avenge what happened in the past.
"Haha, I'm looking forward to your performance. After all, you have the blood of the Leonard family flowing in your veins."
Wilson Gray felt extremely happy when he saw Ron's fearful look.
I'm already thinking about how to kill the other party.
He knew that Ron had only one Holy Knight under his command, and the difference in combat power was too great to be compared.
In Wilson Gray's opinion, crushing Ron to death was no different from crushing an ant.
It all depends on when to start.
Hearing this, Ron fell into his chair, his face pale.
When it comes to acting skills, no one can beat him.
As for why he had to show weakness, the reason was simple: he was already weak.
If he acted too tough and angered the other party, Baron Grey might ignore expanding his territory and prioritize seeking revenge on him.
Then the gain outweighs the loss.
But there is no need to panic. Wilson Gray only has fifty holy knights. We will go to purchase a batch of materials tomorrow and mix thirty to fifty potions. Then we won’t be afraid of him.
The nobles present were all aware of the feud between the Wilson family and the Leonard family. These things had long been spread among the noble circles and were no longer a secret.
Baron Grey's words just now were meant to warn the nobles and tell them not to have close ties with Ron.
It is human nature to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune. In order to avoid being affected, several nobles who had just had a good chat and a great drink, picked up their glasses and left this place of trouble.
For a moment, there was no one around Ron.
People are realistic, and everyone knows the consequences of offending Baron Grey at this time.
The dinner was held in this atmosphere.
Ron did not leave, nor was he surprised by Wilson Gray's actions. The two families were feuding, so there was bound to be a war.
He began to look at the map from a distance, thinking about which place to choose as his territory tomorrow.
It goes without saying that these three places, Emt Plains, Hurricane Valley, and Lake Besri, need to be avoided.
Apart from these fertile lands, the rest are very barren. Any slightly better territory will also be coveted by other nobles.
With our current low strength, it seems that there is only one option left.
That is the Thousand Mile Swamp in the far north. The swamp stretches for thousands of miles, with almost no foothold and no way to build territory.
Just because others can’t do it doesn’t mean Ron can’t do it, because he has the Dragon Girl.
Let Ovier manipulate the mud and sand to fill out a piece of land, and Lucia will assist on the side to stop the water flow.
As long as the territory is well built, the thousand-mile swamp will be the best natural barrier against the knights...
Chapter 22 Ron's Forbearance! Find Lucia to Get the Dragon's Nectar!
There were some who were happy and some who were sad at this banquet.
The three viscounts' sons were happy because they could have priority in choosing more fertile territories to develop.
Some powerful baron's sons were also in a good mood. It was their turn to choose the territory in the second batch, and naturally they could choose the territory they liked.
Weak nobles have almost no choice. After all, they lack strength and it is good enough to have a territory.
After the banquet, Ron left with a serious expression, and only relaxed his expression when he returned to the carriage.
Of course, this does not mean that Wilson Gray poses no threat. Before we build a team of holy knights, we still have to deal with him with caution.
"Master, why do you look so sad as soon as you come back?"
Fiona came closer and gently massaged Ron's temples.
"The Wilson family is also at this banquet. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be disadvantageous to me."
It would be a lie to say that I'm not worried. After all, the other party is a lord with fifty holy knights and three hundred ordinary knights.
As of now, the difference in paper strength is too big.
But don't worry too much, you can make the potion right away.
Once you become a Holy Knight, your strength will undergo a qualitative change.
If we let the most loyal knights take the complete Holy Knight potion and add the three dragon girls, we will have quite good combat power.
Oh, and there is also Lilith, whose prediction is never certain.
Hearing this, Fiona began to worry. As a maid of the Leonard family, she naturally knew all the enemies of the Leonard family.
"What should I do?"
Fiona didn't know how to respond.
escape?
Impossible. The Kingdom of Sainttis has a rule that once you sign up for development, you must fight until the last moment before the ownership of the territory is determined.
It is even more impossible to fight against them, as the difference in combat power is too great and there is no possibility of winning.
"I control the potion formula for the Holy Knights."
Ron spoke confidently:
"Just give me some time and I can build a legion of knights."
"Yeah, how could I have forgotten about this."
Thinking of this, Fiona's expression instantly relaxed.
"Tomorrow I'll go choose the land for development, and you go buy the materials."
Last time it was Ron who bought the materials, but this time he let Fiona go to reduce the risk of exposure.
"no problem."
Fiona's face was filled with joy, and she was no longer worried about the future.
Master, sometimes, he is quite useful...
The carriage galloped through the dark night, crushing the moonlight, and soon stopped at the gate of the mansion.
"Master Ron."
Alman, who had been standing at the door for a whole day, still stood tall and straight.
"Go back and rest."
Ron patted Alman on the shoulder.
"Yes."
Alman nodded, turned around and walked towards the room without any hesitation.
He was like a machine that was programmed to obey orders. He did whatever Ron told him to do.
