Warlord: King of All Clans
Chapter 680: Homecoming
After a long struggle, Leo still refused to become the king of the savages. Seeing that Earl Hard's injuries had basically healed, he prepared to say goodbye and leave.
Before leaving, Hader told Leo, "The leaders of the wild people have already recognized you as the new king of the wild people. Whether you accept it or not, it is a fact. I will send someone to notify you in advance of the next wild people trial."
The Wild Trial is a sacred ritual of the Wild People. A small trial is to become a Wild Hunter, and a big trial is to become a Hunter King.
The Wild Folk Trial that Had mentioned is obviously the latter. At this time, the leaders of all major clans will gather together, and it is also the best time for the Wild Folk King to ascend the throne.
Leo was not particularly opposed to this title. If Earl Beowulf was the political leader of the Wildfolk Clan, the Wildfolk King was the military leader of the Wildfolk Clan.
By becoming the king of the wild folk, Leo had the right to recruit tens of thousands of wild folk hunters, which was undoubtedly a powerful military force.
Ordinary wild people can indeed live in peace as Hard said, as long as they are given soil to survive.
But it is different for those wild chiefs who hold real power. They have no pressure to survive at all. They only think about foreign invasions and building achievements. They think their yew longbows and hunting spears are still powerful weapons for dominating the world.
Leo was not willing to take over this mess for the time being, but he also reached a lot of cooperation with Earl Hard.
The territory of Arbroath borders the Earldom of Beowulf, and two highways can be built between the two places for commercial trade.
The Earldom of Beowulf is equivalent to the Greater Khingan Range in the other world. It has extremely rich resources but lacks sufficient productivity for development.
Leo reached an agreement with the leaders of several wild tribes to jointly develop the mineral resources in the territory.
Having local chiefs as endorsements and responsible for mediating local conflicts is much more convenient than development in the form of invasion.
After doing all this, Leo took the Rose Knight and Pegasus Knight, rode the remaining Pegasus, and flew towards the river bay.
It has been half a year since Leo left Hewan. The wheat at home is ripe, his wife's belly is big, and Leo is eager to go home.
In the east, in the Counties of Kurolov, the Kurolov Legion was defeated, Count Fabti lost an arm, and all the land occupied during the entire Five Earls Alliance period was forced to cede.
Count Fabti could only continue to farm and reorganize his troops with his family members.
Fortunately, the Kurolov family now owns two earldoms, has a large fortune and deep foundation, and will be able to recover in a few years.
Deep in the Earl's Mansion, Locke Kuroloff listened to the scolding and cursing coming from the room and couldn't help shaking his head.
A moment later, a family steward walked out of the room covered in dust.
Count Fabti was still furious. Seeing Locke coming in, he gritted his teeth and said, "Servants nowadays are becoming more and more incompetent. They always ask me about everything. Locke, the Pine family of Peshnik is causing trouble again. You should lead the troops there and slaughter this family to teach the others a lesson."
Locke couldn't help but want to dissuade him, but seeing his father's angry face, he had to suppress his thoughts.
At this time, Count Fabti's arm on his left shoulder had grown back. The dark red, thick arm looked extremely terrifying, and the whole person seemed a little deformed.
This was the secret technique of the Blood Moon Cult. It directly chopped off the arm of an orc warrior and attached it to Count Fabti's shoulder. Then, the tendons and bones were sutured through blood magic, allowing the arm to move normally.
But after all, it is not his own arm, so he can only exert 60% of the strength of his original arm.
After the defeat, Count Fabti's fighting spirit was crushed and his will was depressed. It took him a long time to recover, but now he has become more and more irritable and angry.
Three generations of the Kurolov family are extremely intelligent. Since he was a child, Locke has regarded his father, Count Fabti, as a role model.
His brutality, alcoholism, and stupidity were mostly disguised just to paralyze his opponents.
In fact, in Locke's eyes, apart from the Grand Duke of the North, his father was the only hero in the entire empire.
However, after a great defeat and under the influence of blood magic, Count Fabti's mind changed slightly during this period. He often became furious for no reason and became somewhat irrational.
Peshnik was the former earldom capital of the Isharov family, and the Payne family was the largest local power in Peshnik. For such a family, as long as they did not rebel, the only thing they could do was to appease them as much as possible.
If they were slaughtered directly, the local forces in Peshnik would indeed feel fear, but they would also become more divided.
In the past, Locke and the family steward did not have to report many small matters to Count Fabti and could handle them themselves.
But during this period, Fabuti became domineering and irritable. Not to mention the servants of the family, even Locke, his own son, did not dare to act on his own in such a high position.
The entire Earldom of Kurolov was shrouded in dark clouds.
After arranging the affairs, Count Fabuti looked at the map of the empire, with a faint fire flashing in the depths of his eyes. He whispered, "What the Blood Moon Sect Leader said is right. If you want to fight for the world, you can't be timid. If it really doesn't work, then start the Blood Moon Plan."
Locke was horrified when he heard this, and immediately dissuaded him, "Father! The Blood Moon Sect Master has bad intentions. He only wants to borrow the power of our family to become a god through blood refinement. Don't believe his deception!"
Count Fabti turned around suddenly and stared at Locke coldly, "Bewitched? Who can bewitch me, Fabti?"
Locke was speechless, intimidated by his aura, and lowered his head without saying anything.
Count Fabti suddenly woke up, the bloodshot in his eyes faded, and he forced a smile, "Don't worry, Locke, we just each take what we need, and it's still unclear who drives who."
"Until the critical moment, I won't play my cards casually."
Locke finally relaxed and whispered, "Father is wise!"
After leaving the room, Locke heard the old voice in the depths of his mind again, "Your father is dying."
Since the atrium, the Void Lord Sautius in Locke's mind felt threatened and became very seldom spoken, often only saying a word every ten days or half a month.
Locke sneered and said, "My father lost an arm, but his strength has not declined but improved. He is about to enter the ninth level. What's wrong with that?"
"If you want to dominate the world, this won't work."
Locke's mind moved slightly, and he asked, "Then what do you think is the right way?"
"Blood magic is too crude. Master the power of the void and the road to godhood is right under your feet. Only you and I can dominate the world."
Listening to Sautius's tempting words, Locke remained silent and did not respond.
Looking at the southwestern part of the North, the Tauren War Chief Strong Apollo Mammoth led two large legions to Osluden, the capital of Count Gustav.
Osluden, the capital of Count Gustav.
A few days later, the 5,000-strong River Bay Main Army and 1,000-strong navy led by Knight Solovy also drove steam sailing warships, blocked the river outside Osluden, and joined forces with Strong.
A total of 16,000 people completely blocked the city of Osluden.
