Extraordinary Earl

Chapter 182 Settling in (Second Change)

"Hahaha, I'm here to visit you again. This time I agreed to come to Pompeii to build an outpost."

The visiting knight was the senior knight of the Saber-Toothed Tiger Mercenary Corps, the Knight of Orleans. This Knight of Orleans impressed Luther very deeply. He was big, bold, and had a bushy beard.

The whole body is full of the style of European and American fighters.

Accompanying him were three intermediate knights, eight junior knights, and some ordinary mercenaries.

In the mercenary regiment, the main force in the battle is the knights, and ordinary mercenaries are only responsible for logistics, such as setting up camps and so on.

When Luther cooperated with the Saber-toothed Tiger Mercenary Group, he advertised that the Saber-toothed Tiger Mercenary Group set up an outpost in Pompeii.

Because mercenaries also act as adventurers from time to time, but adventurers enter the forest to get all the good things in the deep forest, referred to as luck.

Catch what you encounter.

Mercenaries are usually entrusted by their employers to go to the endless deep forest to find precious herbs, monsters, ores and other materials.

This kind of employment is also a major business of the saber-toothed tiger mercenary group.

In the past, the saber-toothed tiger mercenary group's outpost on the edge was in another place, but because Luther rescued Mr. El Wizard last time, he helped the saber-toothed tiger mercenary group.

This favor made the Saber-toothed Tiger mercenary group transfer the original outpost and prepare to set up a new outpost in Pang.

The Saber-toothed Tiger mercenary regiment dispatched mercenaries to the endless deep forest, and then they would supply supplies near the outpost. After the mercenaries made money, they would also spend in nearby cities.

This will bring popularity to the city.

If more mercenary groups and more adventurers gathered in a city, then correspondingly, the various materials and commercial activities they obtained through their adventures could even support the economy of a small city.

But obviously, this slightly conflicts with Luther's current plan.

Before the establishment of the Orange Consortium, Luther's plan for the metropolis was obviously one step at a time. As long as it could attract people, a hammer to the east or a hoe to the west would do.

But now he has a plan to build a metropolis full of art, prosperity, safety and comfort.

It's not that Luther despises mercenary adventurers, but they are all people who lick blood on the knife edge, generally have a big temper, and love to drink.

If too many mercenaries and adventurers gather in a city, there will definitely be a lot of fights.

It conflicts a bit with Luther's development path.

But it doesn't matter, the metropolis hasn't developed yet.If the Pompeii family became a real nobleman, it would not just be a metropolis.

A big city, several small cities seem to be good.At that time, it seems to be possible to create a rough city with a strong atmosphere of adventurers.

Therefore, Luther welcomed the visit of the Knights of Orleans.

"It's really hard work for you, Knight of Orleans." Luther expressed his master's enthusiasm, gave the Knight of Orleans a hug, and then brought the Knight of Orleans to the city hall, and registered a place on the edge of the territory as a saber-toothed tiger mercenary Regiment station.

This station is not far from Pompeii, and the supply line is very short.It will also not disturb the activities of normal residents of Pompeii.

After all, the murderous aura emanating from the mercenaries is quite scary.

The layout of the mercenaries' garrison is very simple, a passable outer wall and a tent camp will do.

Ordinary mercenaries are very good at logistics, and the work is completed before dark.Luther brought Pompeii wine, and the knights of the saber-toothed tigers ate and drank wine.

Because of Luther's warm hospitality, the knights also liked Luther very much, and the atmosphere was very good.

At this moment, the sky is full of stars, and the ground is lit with bonfires.Luther and the Knight of Orleans sat on a small bench around the bonfire. The Knight of Orleans drank a lot of Pompeii wine and was a little dizzy.

If you drink too much wine, it is easy to tell the truth.

But the Knight of Orleans was still quite sober, but he said to Luther through his drunkenness: "Knight Luther, you also know that being a mercenary is a very profitable but very risky thing, and you may die at any time, although I am a high-level knight, but I cannot escape this fate. In the history of the Saber-toothed Tiger Mercenary Corps, there are not a few high-level knights who died in battle. So my greatest wish is to become a powerful family after earning enough money and live a prosperous life. A more peaceful day."

Luther secretly smiled in his heart, the Orleans knight should have had this idea a long time ago.

But it has not found a suitable family to become an official.

This is normal.

An old-fashioned real aristocratic family with a large number of knight groups, whether it is guardian knights or vassal knights.

They will always appoint knights from these families, because these families are trustworthy.

Even if the number is not enough, they are more inclined to noble knights.

As for the adventurers of commoner origin, mercenaries, and the nobles of the field, they don't trust them.Because of mercenaries, adventurers often represent dirty.

A seemingly honest mercenary may be a ruthless executioner in the wild.

In this regard, mercenaries of noble origin are better than mercenaries of commoner origin, because the surname of a nobleman represents credibility in a sense.

All in all, civilians are not to be trusted.

Therefore, if civilian mercenaries want to find a way out, the best way is to become a great knight, go to the capital to join the king, and transform themselves into court nobles.

If you can't become a great knight, then look for a family that has just risen, or a business family without a territory to be the guard.

Even senior knights are not exempt from this.

The power that cannot be trusted, there is no difference between junior knights and senior knights.

Unless you are a great knight.

This is also the reason why the power of the New Party continues to infiltrate among the commoner knights. The New Party represents the resentment of the commoner knights. They are eager to overthrow the existing aristocratic system and gain a status equal to their strength.

However, the aristocrats have a huge advantage in wealth, they can consume potions and monster meat, and cultivate generations of noble knights.

The power of civilians is too weak.

Therefore, although the new party has a chance to overthrow the Kingdom of Prussia, the chance is actually extremely slim.

All in all, the Knight of Orleans is a seemingly rough and bold mercenary, but he actually has his own shrewdness.

He could see that Luther didn't mind recruiting reputable civilian mercenaries.

And the friendship and trust between the two sides was established during the last battle.

And the Pompeii family is developing at a high speed.

Recently, the Knights of Orleans have been hearing the propaganda that the Pompeii's family wiped out the Autumn Wind Thieves Group. This proves that the Pompeii's family has invested countless gold coins and become the driving force.

The Cavaliers of Orleans believed that the Pompey family would not always be as large as it is now.

Sooner or later it will take off.

This is the delicacy of the Knights of Orleans, who appear bold and rough.

And if Orleans one day gets tired of the life of a mercenary and hopes to have a stable life, then Pompey's house will be a good choice.

And he believed that the Pompeii family also needed trustworthy senior knights.

Both sides complement each other, don't they?
