System: Build My Own Territory-Chapter 676 - 239: Viscount Grayson (10K)
Janet’s eyebrow arched, and she questioned skeptically, "Indicate?"
"Uncle Joao, how do you want me to indicate?"
"Do you want me to kneel in front of the grave of the deceased soldiers of Frank Manor and confess?"
"Or do you want me to lead the few soldiers we have to attack Lynn’s walls, as a burial for the fallen soldiers?"
Joao’s face froze, the tone that originally contained reproach slightly relaxed.
"Janet, that’s not what I meant."
Janet stared directly at Joao Frank across from her, questioning, "Uncle Joao, then what do you mean?"
Joao fell silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.
But Janet had no intention of stopping and continued speaking.
"I know, those soldiers were trained by you painstakingly."
"You spent more time with them than anyone else in the manor."
"Uncle Joao, what I want to tell you is that while they were your soldiers, they were also the soldiers of Frank Manor."
"They were soldiers cultivated with the grain and money of Frank Manor!"
"Their deaths pain me just as well!"
Joao’s mouth opened slightly, words stuck in his throat.
Janet continued, "Moreover, Uncle Joao, what gives you the right to blame me?"
"When Grandpa Jonas passed, surely the Three Great Estates long oppressed would act against Frank Manor."
"It was I! I found a way to respond, I found Lynn, who came to provide military aid."
"Even though after the battle, Lynn took all the assets of the Three Great Estates."
"But Frank Manor was preserved, and we took control of Morgan Town and all its farmland."
"I am the benefactor of the entire Frank Clan!"
Joao lowered his head, not daring to meet Janet’s gaze.
Thinking it over in his mind, Joao found no flaw in what Janet said.
Joao then raised his head and asked Janet, "Janet, shouldn’t we do something?"
"Lynn killed our soldiers and took the assets that originally belonged to the Three Great Estates!"
Janet did not reply, continuing to eat her salad with a fork.
Seeing Janet’s contemplative expression, Joao remained silent, standing quietly aside.
After a short while.
Janet put down her fork and said, "Of course, we must do something, but not now."
"Uncle Joao, I need you to continue recruiting soldiers."
"Whether they are Free People or the Mercenary Corps."
"Frank Manor needs more soldiers!"
"And, arm them as much as possible, armor, weapons..."
"I need a powerful army to handle future changes."
"All the money to be spent will be covered by Frank Manor!"
Listening to Janet’s instructions, Joao replied firmly, "Yes, Janet."
"I will immediately arrange personnel to go to Morgan Town and Kakasong City to recruit."
"And then, I will personally seek the Mercenary Corps!"
Janet nodded, then dismissed Joao.
Meanwhile, her mind began to contemplate.
The military strength of Frank Manor had been too severely depleted.
The urgent task now was not to consider how to hold Lynn accountable or attack him.
But to recruit soldiers with all might, strengthen military power, to face Lynn!
Considering his previously demonstrated military power, heavy cavalry, heavy infantry, archers...
Overthrowing Frank Manor as it stood would not be difficult!
The more critical point is.
Up to now, she still didn’t know how strong Lynn’s military strength was.
This is what was truly unsettling and terrifying.
...
In the red brick house residential area, construction was in full swing.
Lynn was fully engaged in leveling up the Hunting skill.
Arrow after arrow was shot by him, hitting the bullseye accurately.
[Hunting Experience +1]
[Hunting Experience +1]
[Hunting Experience +1]
...
Little by little, the experience kept increasing.
When he had exhausted all his physical strength and was resting on a bench.
Lynn’s thoughts moved, and he opened the Heavenly Artifacts panel for a glance.
[Hunting: Level 2 (480/500)] (+)
At most one or two more days, and he could level the Hunting skill to Level 3.
Resting briefly on the bench.
Lynn stepped towards the Lord’s Square.
Before he arrived, Red’s voice called out a reminder from behind him.
"Master, there’s a convoy coming."
Upon hearing this, Lynn turned his head to look.
He saw at the end of the road leading to Weng City through the mountain forest, several wagons coming in.
Because it was too distant, Lynn found it slightly hard to see clearly.
With a thought, he opened the Holographic Map directly.
Instantly.
The wagons loaded with goods, and the bodies bound with chains and ropes behind them, entered his view.
These bound bodies, naturally, were slaves!
At the front of the wagon convoy, riding on a tall horse, was none other than Grayson!
Lynn’s eyebrow arched.
Since the last time Grayson had come to the territory and delivered a batch of slaves, more than two months had already passed!
Closing the panel, Lynn continued to advance towards the Lord’s Square.
Awaiting Grayson’s arrival at the Lord’s Square.
After half an hour.
Wagons reinforced with metal and pulled by four horses halted at the Lord’s Square.
Grayson pulled the reins, stopping his horse beneath him, and dismounted directly.
