Fantasy Lords: Starting with the Pioneer Knight

Chapter 60 Idiots are everywhere

 Lawrence territory.

 At this moment, Renée Braque, the wife of Baron Papy Lawrence, was really in a panic.

Her husband, Baron Papy Lawrence, led a large number of elites from the territory to attack the Eagle Territory, but he never came back. Originally, she had nothing to worry about. After all, the strength of their Territory of Lawrence was stronger than any other in the entire Maine Valley. Being considered the strongest being, she didn't think there would be any surprises.

 However, in the early morning of the next day, a letter from the Eagle Territory made him completely unable to calm down.

 “Fuck, oh my god, this can’t be possible!”

Renee Brack spoke with some disbelief.

“Ms. Renée Braque, nothing is impossible. Baron Pappy Lawrence has been captured by my Lord. Please collect the ransom as soon as possible, otherwise I will not be able to guarantee your Lord Baron’s safety.”

The knight smiled lightly, then turned and left.

Just because the knight left, the letter sent by the Eagle Leader caused an uproar.

 The entire Lawrence Territory became restless.

 In the castle.

"crazy!"

 “They’re absolutely crazy!”

 “Why don’t you grab it!”

"This is impossible!"

Renee Brack quickly looked at the letter in panic.

However, when the content was presented, Renee Braque couldn't help but widen her eyes, and her anger inevitably spread.

 She, she saw something.

Papy Lawrence needs 3,000 gold coins, Lawrence needs 1,000 gold coins, formal knights have 500 gold coins each, and apprentice knights have 100 gold coins each. In addition, they need to pay 3,000 serfs and 2,000 gold coins as war compensation. .

 This is simply the goddess of life joking with her.

At the end of the day, if the entire Lawrence Castle is sold to the Eagle Territory, it will probably be about the same.

 “Mother!”

 “This is indeed impossible!”

"This is too much. The Eagle Leader has no intention of releasing my father."

Opal Lawrence next to him also looked at the letter, but after reading it, his eyes couldn't help but light up.

 It is not anger.

  But saw an opportunity.

 That’s right, it’s an opportunity.

As the second son of a baron, he did not have the right to inherit the territory, especially since the talent of knights was far inferior to that of his elder brother.

Even if the current Baroness was his mother instead of Lawrence's mother, the result would be the same.

 Originally, he had no choice.

 But at this moment he seemed to see hope.

 As long as his father and elder brother cannot come back, it seems that he is the only one who has the right to inherit the territory.

This time he was really moved.

"This this!"

Renee Braque became even more panicked when she heard her son's words. She was not from a noble background, but was just the daughter of a businessman. It was because of the unexpected death of Papy Lawrence's first wife that she had the opportunity to rise to power and face this situation. A situation where she had absolutely no idea what to do.

“Mother, since they are not sincere, why should we pay the ransom? This is probably worth tens of thousands of gold coins.”

 Opal Lawrence spoke with feigned indignation.

 “But your father.”

Renee Braque spoke subconsciously.

 “My father may not be still alive!”

“Moreover, mother, if father and elder brother come back, I will not be able to inherit the territory.”

“Perhaps this is our chance.” Opal Lawrence’s eyes flickered, she pursed her lips, and spoke slowly.

"you!"

Renee Braque couldn't help but startled, and looked at her son with shock.

After being shocked, Renee Braque's heart couldn't help but beat violently.

 As the son said, this seemed like a real opportunity.

　　It’s just that the excitement only lasted for a moment and was quickly suppressed.

"No, without your father, a great knight, the territory will soon fall into turmoil. Moreover, your father has also taken away a large number of knights. The territory cannot be defended with the strength of the current territory, and it may even be defeated by Lauren. annexed by other families."

Renee Brack was not carried away by the excitement, and he quickly discovered the problem.

 That is strength.

They are just the sons of merchants. They are simply not strong enough and cannot hold on.

"Mother, you seem to have forgotten that the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce can provide protection. It only takes a thousand gold coins to hire a great knight to guard it for a year. Instead of giving so many gold coins to the Eagle Leader, it is better to give them to the Eagle Leader. Habs Chamber of Commerce, at least the lord will not be the eldest brother.”

Opper spoke with twinkling eyes.

At this moment, the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was okay.

One thousand gold coins can hire a great knight for one year. He only needs to spend three thousand gold coins to hire him for three years. Coupled with his own training, with the power of Lawrence's territory, he can regain his original strength in about three years. .

And he always felt that his strength could not keep up. That was because his father gave all the resources to his elder brother. If he could obtain a large amount of resources, he might be able to quickly break through the official knights, or even break through to the great knights. At that time, the entire territory would not be able to keep up. There will be any problems.

Even at this moment, he even had a dangerous idea popping up in his mind.

"this!"

Hearing her son’s words, Renee Braque’s eyes suddenly lit up.

 She has also been worried about the next issue of territorial inheritance.

 Once Lawrence inherited the title, their fate can be imagined.

 The best result is to give them a sum of gold coins and wipe them out.

 She was used to being a baroness and didn't want to face this situation.

 This time does seem to be an opportunity.

“Mother, in order to avoid any surprises, we can completely say that the Eagle Territory has mastered a large mineral vein, what about the iron ore, as long as we let the news out, and let the Eagle Territory know that it was us who released it.”

 “Then there won’t be any surprises.”

Renee Braque was getting excited, and Opal spoke again.

Just the words that were spoken made Renee Brak's scalp tingle, and her figure suddenly stood up.

 “Opper, you!”

Renee Braque looked at her son with disbelief.

“Mother, this is our only chance. Once my eldest brother comes back, the territory will no longer belong to us.”

Opper spoke seriously, but the words he spoke were extremely cold.

 After Renee Braque was shocked, she couldn't help but fell silent.

 A moment later.

"good!"

Renee Brack took a deep breath and made up her mind.

Even though she knew that such a decision would definitely make her husband never come back, she still chose to agree for the sake of her son and the entire Lawrence territory.

 With the consent of her mother, Opal started to act quickly.

 He first needs to go to Loren City to hire high knights and some formal knights from the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce.

 Then it’s time to act.
