"That's not good. I'm just here to mediate the war. I have no intention of occupying Rose Town." Ryan pretended to decline.

"How can you claim to be occupying Qiangwei Town? You are here to protect our Qiangwei Town. Guanhai City has abandoned us. With the current strength of Qiangwei Town, it will definitely be coveted by other territories."

"Rather than being invaded by them, it would be better for you to take over Rose Town. At least you are a benevolent lord and will not harm the residents of Rose Town."

Lancaster said sincerely.

When Ryan saw that Lancaster's words and expression did not seem to be fake, he understood that the Rose Baron really wanted to surrender to him.

This is interesting. It seems that Lancaster is not stupid. He not only has eyes and can see the current situation clearly, but also can make the best choice for himself without hesitation.

He knew that Ryan must have thoughts about Rose Town, and he couldn't change the result. In this case, he took the initiative to let Ryan take over Rose Town.

By doing this, he could not only sell Ryan a favor, but also gain a good reputation. He took the initiative to hand over the territory to Ryan for the sake of the residents of Rose Town. He was not forced to occupy it, and the glory of the Rose family was not completely lost.

Moreover, it will be difficult for Ryan to kill him in the future. They have surrendered voluntarily and handed over their territory to you. If you kill them, who will dare to surrender to you in the future?

Not only can Ryan not kill him, but he also has to protect his safety. If anything happens to Lancaster, others will definitely think that it was Ryan who did it, which will undoubtedly damage Ryan's reputation.

Lancaster is equivalent to taking out an insurance policy on his life. This guy is indeed a bit clever.

However, it is reasonable to think about it. The Rose family has always been good at assessing the situation. As the direct successor of the Rose family, Lancaster naturally understands this, otherwise he would not kowtow to the merchants of Guanhai City.

Thinking of this, Ryan gave Lancaster a thoughtful look. He didn't mind the other party being clever. Lancaster's move was just to protect the family honor and his own life.

He was able to take the initiative to hand over the territory to Ryan, which saved Ryan a lot of trouble.

Ryan had no intention of killing Lancaster, so he followed suit and said:

"What Baron Lancaster said makes sense. Rose Town is indeed unsafe now and may be invaded by other territories at any time. Then I will temporarily take over Rose Town. Please rest assured that I will never let the citizens of Rose Town be harmed." harm."

Lancaster broke into a cold sweat after being stared at by Ryan. He knew that Ryan had seen all the little things in his heart. Fortunately, Ryan had no intention of killing him, and he could finally let go of his worries.

So he quickly said to Ryan in a flattering tone:

"Rose Town will definitely become better than it is now under your protection. I would like to thank you on behalf of the citizens of Rose Town."

Herman on the side looked a little complicated after hearing this. Although he had already been mentally prepared for his lord to surrender to Ryan, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Lancaster surrendering to Ryan so eagerly.

In name, Lane only took over Rose Town temporarily, but Herman knew very well that the future owner of Rose Town would no longer be Lancaster, but Lane, and the Rose family's hundreds of years of rule over Rose Town would be cut off.

This made Herman, who had sworn allegiance to the Rose family, very uncomfortable, but he could also understand Lancaster. The new Baron Rose did not want to be a lord, nor did he have the talent to be a lord.

But he is the only direct heir to the Rose family, so he can do it even if he doesn't want to. Lancaster has been gritting his teeth and insisting on it over the years. The pressure on him is very great, for fear that the Rose family's inheritance will be cut off in his hands.

Unfortunately, Rose Town was invaded by Ironthorn Town in the end. When Baron Bach wanted to kill Lancaster, his last line of defense collapsed.

Rather than maintaining his rule over Rose Town, he still wanted to save his own life and the inheritance of the Rose family, so he would surrender to Baron Bach without hesitation.

But Baron Bach did not accept his surrender. Instead, he insisted on killing him on the grounds that the big steel snake was out of control. This made Lancaster even more frightened. He originally thought that handing over Rose Town would save his life, but this was not the case. .

Therefore, when Lane defeated Bach, Lancaster was so eager to surrender to Lane. He was frightened by Bach, fearing that Lane would kill him for any reason like Bach.

Herman also grew up watching Lancaster. He knew that his lord had been pampered since he was a child and had never encountered death threats. Therefore, when Lancaster faced death, it was not surprising that he surrendered. .

Understandably, Herman still felt disappointed when he saw Lancaster surrendering to two lords one after another.

Presumably Knight Commander Seiler was also disappointed with Lancaster, otherwise he would not be silent at this moment. He definitely wanted to denounce Lancaster's surrender, but he could not disrespect the lord to whom he was loyal. Able to express dissatisfaction and anger in silence.

But Knight Commander Seiler could not be silent for long. He was different from Herman. Herman was just a clerk, a civilian, and had no impact on Ryan's takeover of Rose Town. At most, it could help Ryan take over Rose Town faster.

Sailer is the knight captain of Rose Town, managing the armed force of the Rose Town Knights. Although those knights do not obey his orders, Ryan does not know this. As long as Ryan is not stupid, he will definitely ask Sailer to Pay allegiance to him.

As expected, Ryan soon noticed Sailor beside him, and he said to Lancaster:

"The knight next to you should be your knight captain. He seems to be very capable. I have also heard of the Kentero Knights he leads. It is said that they are not weaker than the One-Horned Rhino Knights of Ironthorn Town."

Lancaster heard this and immediately said to Ryan:

"Knight Commander Sailer is indeed very good, but I am not qualified as a lord, which hinders him. This is why the Cavaliers lost to Ironthorn Town. Since you are so optimistic about him, why not include him in your group?" Under your command, Knight Commander Sailer will definitely be able to exert his full strength."

Seeing that Lancaster wanted to pledge his allegiance to Ryan, Sailor couldn't help but frown slightly.

Their family has been loyal to the Rose Family for generations, how could they change their allegiance at will? After the news spreads, other nobles will think that their family is greedy for life and fearful of death, and is disloyal and unjust.

"Lord, I."

Just when Sailer was about to refuse to pledge allegiance to Ryan, he saw Lancaster cast a pleading look at him, and Herman on the side also shook his head slightly at him, indicating that he should not refuse.

In the end, Sailer's loyalty overcame his family's reputation. He sighed and said:

"I don't have any objections. I just obey the Lord's orders."

Lancaster immediately beamed when he heard this. He was really afraid that Sailor would refuse to be loyal to Ryan. It would be a trivial matter to cause Ryan's dissatisfaction. If Ryan thought that he could still influence the Knights of Rose Town, his life might not be saved. Guaranteed.

"Then what are you waiting for? Come and pledge your allegiance to Baron Lane." Lancaster said impatiently, and those who didn't know thought it was him who was being pledged.

"As ordered!"

Sailor made his decision and no longer hesitated. He walked quickly to Ryan, then knelt down on one knee, took off the knight's sword from his waist, and raised his hands above his head.
