Warlord: King of All Clans

Count Beowulf's eldest daughter, Taran, is a strong woman in her early thirties, and is also an extraordinary swordsman of mid-level.

Hard Beowulf's son is only sixteen years old and is not yet able to take charge of his father's affairs.

After Taran married a bannerman of the territory, she took her husband with her to assist her father in managing the earldom.

Most of the population in Earl Beowulf's territory are savages. One can imagine how brave Taran is, as he was able to establish prestige among these barbarians.

Taran looked around and didn't see any representative from the Gustav family. He couldn't help but ask, "Count Mondo, why didn't you invite the Gustav family? Their territory borders Beboos. Why don't we bring them together to send troops? It will save us a lot of effort."

As soon as she said this, everyone at the table shook their heads secretly, knowing that she was a rookie in military and political affairs.

If you take a closer look at the map of the North, you will know that Earl Riverbend has already set his sights on the city of Abros, which is ruled by Earl Beboos. Now that the Lagustav family has entered the scene, how will the territory be divided?

Moreover, the war in Earl Gustav's territory has gradually subsided, and he has begun to look to the north. Leo has already sensed the crisis, so of course he would take this opportunity to win over allies and isolate Gustav to avoid being surrounded by multiple forces in the future.

As soon as Taran saw the expressions of the crowd, he knew that he had spoken out of turn, but those around him were either his relatives and allies, or representatives of the clan leader's family. Only Locke was young and easy to bully.

Taran looked at Locke, the blond boy with a feminine face, and laughed, "Is this what the legitimate son of the Kurolov family looks like? Are you sure you are the biological son of the giant Fabuti?"

The giant Count Fabuti of the North is nearly two meters and a half tall, which is a rare tall man among the people of the North.

Locke not only has a feminine face, but also a thin and medium build. He is wearing a wizard's robe that hides his strong muscles, making him look very weak.

Seeing Taran Beowulf's sarcastic remarks, Locke smiled slightly and explained: "My mother is the legendary adventurer Laufey in the North, the adventure partner of Queen Lola, and the most beautiful woman in the North. Maybe I inherited more of her blood."

Taran clenched his fists immediately. Not a single word of the other party's words offended her, but the way he looked at her and smiled was as if he was saying that she looked more manly than any man.

Grant, standing aside, also had a prejudice against the Kurolov family. He was the second son of the Grand Duke of the North. As a member of a Northern family, he was of course dissatisfied with this earl's family that broke with tradition.

The Kurolov family joined forces with the Eastern Legion of the Orcs to conquer the Earldom of Isharov by surprise, breaking the rules of the Earl's War that had lasted for hundreds of years in the North.

Before this, the Earl of the North had to save his face and declare war before fighting, no matter how serious the conflict was.

A hundred years ago, one had to submit a declaration of war to the Duke's Palace in the Northern Territory first, and then wait for the Grand Duke to sign before officially declaring war.

Now the Kurolov family was waging war without declaration, and the Grand Duke of the North was still leading his army to fight against the main force of the Orcs. He was unable to intervene in time and could only suffer this defeat.

This kind of thing caused serious damage to the prestige of the Grand Duke of the North. Since then, the wars between the earls in the North have been completely out of the control of the Duke's Mansion.

Grant looked at Locke and said, "You, the Kurolov family, want to start a war. Do you have to come all the way here to recruit allies? If you want to fight, just fight on your own."

Locke smiled and said, "I am not the one who initiated this alliance. I just happened to be there and joined in the effort."

Seeing that they were about to quarrel, Leo stepped out to appease them. "I was the one who proposed this alliance. Now that the Beboos family is being criticized by thousands of people, it is time to step down. However, the power of the Earl of the North is rippled throughout the body. No one wants to be bitten in the back while eating the cake in front, so why not sit down together and have a good talk before sending troops."

His statement was in line with the interests of all parties. Kurolov was eager to move westward, but was restrained by Lord Odalov of the Grand Duke of the North. If they could get the permission of the Grand Duke of the North, they would have no worries.

Beowulf had long ago joined forces with Forelov to fight Beboos, and now the battle was at a stalemate, and both of them were very anxious.

One of them is a low-health earl, and the other is a barbarian earl. Neither of them has a strong foundation like the Beboos family, and they cannot withstand a long war.

Leo set his sights on the city of Abros. Although he was confident that he could take it on his own, he was also worried that Count Beboos would make a desperate move and lead the main army to rescue and take down a small player like him first.

The five people present were all outstanding people. They knew the interests involved, so they calmed down and began to negotiate.

Because the conflict of interests was not significant, the alliance to divide the Earldom of Beboos was quickly reached in just one afternoon.

There was only one conflict during this period. Grant, representing the Grand Duke's family of the North, believed that Locke's Kurolov family had swallowed up half of the Earldom of Isharov, and that the territory had exceeded the scope of the Earldom and should not continue to expand.

But Locke immediately stated that if it was believed that their family had exceeded the scope of an earldom, then it would be better to confer the title of dukedom. They were willing to re-honor the Grand Duke of the North as the High King of the North, continue to swear allegiance to him, and follow the High King to dominate the world.

Even though Grant was extremely smart, he was fooled by Locke. Although his heart was pounding, he couldn't make a decision. He could only refuse him sternly on the surface, but he didn't pester him any more.

The four cities of Beboos were divided up among four major forces, and only Count Hermann could get some share of the spoils.

The territory he actually controlled did not border the Earldom of Beboos, and he led his troops to join the war only because of his alliance with Hard Beowulf.

Looking at the vast Earldom of Beboos on the map, which was simply divided up by four families, Count Hermann appeared to be calm on the surface, but in fact he was suffering.

After Leo took away the city of Isenbol, the Foreloff family was completely blocked and could not expand their territory beyond him and Count Beowulf.

The alliance was reached, and the time for dispatching troops was agreed upon. The visitors did not linger any longer, but boarded the Pegasus provided by Leo to return to their own territories and report to their own masters.

Only Locke did not have this treatment. Leo said that his Pegasus could only fly two thousand miles and could not reach the Earldom of Kurolov in the east.

But Locke knew that this was Leo's excuse. Anyone who knew the power of blood magic would not give away his flying mount.

As compensation for his previous offense against the Earl of River Bay, Locke not only handed over the scroll of returning to the city that he was carrying, but also paid an additional thirty magic crystals before he was able to redeem himself.

Before leaving, Locke looked up and asked, "Where is my follower Gerard?"

Leo explained calmly, "Oh, he assassinated the princess and deserves death. For your sake, I sentenced him to prison, and his punishment has not yet ended."

Locke suppressed his anger and said, "We have already discussed it before, why are you going back on your word now? Gerard is my bodyguard. It will be unsafe for me to go back without him."

Leo just shook his head.

Locke had no choice but to ask, "So how long will the prison sentence last?"

Leo calculated for a long time, "According to the imperial law, there are still 1,200 years left. Don't worry, even if it turns into ashes, I will send it back to you."
