System: Build My Own Territory-Chapter 675 - 238: [Hero Training] Unlocked (10,000) _6
But his identity is the illegitimate son of Donovan Ducas!
And he was even the one whom the current Marquis, Mark Ducas, arranged followers to kill with a blade.
Which means.
He has the land grant documents, but his status is still illegitimate!
The struggle for imperial authority led to the war for imperial authority.
No matter how the two Princes wage war, it cannot change the fact that the Karedi Empire remains in the hands of the Carolingian Clan.
Merely transferring from the left hand to the right.
The only difference is.
If Mitchell Carolin is defeated in this war.
Then the Ducas Clan, which supports Mitchell.
Will undoubtedly be purged by Caesar’s side!
The territory occupied by a Marquis of the Empire is vast!
Within the territory, the arable land resources, labor resources, and even mineral resources.
Are enough to captivate eyes and make hearts covetous.
Even many lord nobility would swarm in and divide the entire Marquisate!
He needs to find an opportunity to regain a legitimate status.
The best result would be to get the imperial authority winner—Emperor of the Empire’s conferment!
Becoming a lord with autonomous governance rights, diplomatic autonomy, exclusive resource rights, military autonomy, and even independent legislative rights!
But to become such a lord requires making great contributions to the Emperor of the Empire.
For example, defending the safety of the Empire’s territories in military battles, fighting bravely.
For example, openly declaring absolute support for the Emperor of the Empire in politics.
And for example, paying rich taxes to the Emperor of the Empire in economics.
But no matter which one, none are something he can accomplish now.
The only thing he can do is continue to develop the territory!
While Lynn was pondering, he had already returned to the Lord’s Square.
Glancing at the time, it’s only the afternoon.
He stepped towards the archery training ground not far away.
The development of the territory naturally requires time and a development cycle.
Instead of worrying here, it’s more practical to continue grinding experience.
As long as he continuously shoots arrows, his [Hunting] skill experience will continually increase.
Arriving at the archery training ground.
Lynn picked up a longbow from the archery stand and walked towards the target range.
Red sensibly grabbed several leather quivers filled with triangular armor-piercing arrows and followed behind.
Standing at a distance of one hundred and fifty meters, he held the bow in his left hand and fetched an arrow from the quiver with his right hand.
He nocked the arrow, drew the bow, exerting strength with his arms.
The standard longbow requiring one hundred and thirty pounds of pull instantly drew fully.
Under the contributing tension, there was even a taut ’buzzing’ sound.
With Lynn’s sharp gaze aiming at the bullseye in front, the fingers of his right hand released the arrow.
Whizz!
With a sharp whistling sound through the air, the triangular armor-piercing arrow cut through space, shooting violently forward.
Almost in the blink of an eye.
Thud~
A crisp sound echoed from the target in front.
The triangular armor-piercing arrow hit the bullseye!
After hitting the target, Lynn did not stop.
Instead, he once again fetched an arrow from the quiver, nocked, drew the bow, and released the arrow between his fingers.
The triangular armor-piercing arrow accurately hit the bullseye again.
The two triangular armor-piercing arrows nestled closely together!
Lynn’s actions continued.
As he shot arrow after arrow, the bullseye on that target was already filled with arrows.
Until the entire bullseye was densely packed with arrows.
Only then did Lynn turn to the next target to continue shooting.
Watching from not far behind was Red, observing this scene.
He sighed inwardly.
Perhaps this is Master Lynn’s talent?
He clearly remembered that Master Lynn’s archery ability was far inferior to his!
But now.
Master Lynn’s archery is not something he can compare to!
He could not manage to hit all the bullseyes with dozens of triangular armor-piercing arrows without a single one falling to the ground.
After shooting more than forty arrows in a row.
A somewhat exhausted Lynn handed the longbow in his hand to Red.
He was now covered in thick sweat, with his arms trembling uncontrollably...
Even so.
The comfort and feeling of exhilaration from exerting all his strength made him exhale hot breath.
Sitting down on the chair behind, he rested for a brief moment.
Lynn, together with Red, headed back towards the direction of the town.
By this time, dusk had already begun to descend.
When Lynn crossed the Lord’s Square.
He returned to the castle to the respectful call of ’Lord’ from those around.
...
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Inside Frank Manor.
The reception hall.
Janet, dressed in a deep purple satin gown, was seated at the head of the dining room table.
Enjoying the abundant dinner of the Manor Lord with the service of several maids.
She picked up the silver spoon in her hand and spooned mouthfuls of chicken soup from the silver bowl into her mouth.
After softly savoring the chicken soup’s deliciousness, she swallowed it.
When the chicken soup was finished, Janet was about to enjoy the vegetable salad.
A steady and forceful footstep sounded from afar.
Janet looked up and cast her gaze.
She saw a tall, burly figure in chain armor striding forward.
It was Joao Frank.
Seeing Joao in such a travel-worn state, Janet spoke softly.
"Uncle Joao, you’ve come back right on time, care to join me for dinner?"
Hearing Janet’s words, a maid perceptively took out a set of tableware from the nearby cabinet and placed it on the dining table.
Approaching Janet, Joao glanced at the food on the table and replied, "No, thank you, Janet."
"I’ve already eaten in the camp!"
Joao turned his gaze to Janet at the head of the table.
The enticing whiteness in front of Janet, unable to be contained by the silk gown.
Caught his eyes momentarily.
Joao quickly looked away.
"Janet, the casualties from this battle have been fully tallied..."
Janet remained silent, holding the fork in her hand, starting to enjoy the vegetable salad on her plate.
Joao continued, "The gates of the Manor Castle were breached, and soldiers from the Three Great Estates poured in."
"Even though I led my men to try to stop them with all my might, it was still unavoidable that soldiers from Frank Manor suffered casualties."
"The number of soldiers from Frank Manor killed is as high as nine hundred, with over a hundred seriously injured and another hundred lightly injured."
"Chain armor soldiers were the main force in this war, with casualties exceeding two hundred."
"Moreover, many soldiers from Frank Manor died due to the arrow rain led by Lynn!"
Janet paused, about to place a carrot slice in her mouth.
Observing Janet’s actions and those red lips tinged with a hint of white.
Joao said solemnly, "Lynn waited deliberately until the Manor Castle gates were breached before providing assistance!"
"He intended to weaken our Frank Manor’s military strength, which is an indisputable fact."
"Yet, he even launched an indiscriminate attack on us!"
"This is a provocation to our Frank Manor!"
Janet put the carrot in her mouth, frowned, and began to chew.
Crunch crunch~
Listening to Janet’s chewing, Joao looked at her puzzledly and asked.
"Janet, as the Manor Lord, don’t you have something to say?"
"After all, they were soldiers of Frank Manor!"
