forest kingdom

Chapter 306 Andrew returns

Lawrence quickly arrived at the town of Pumexiu, where the envoy from the Western Kingdom had been waiting for a long time.

This time, not all the troops came. In addition to the coalition forces from the Western Kingdom, there were also people who came here to do business before, as well as the knights of the Marquis of York.

Karp, the Earl of Haisenli who had come here to sell cattle before, saw Lawrence coming and walked out quickly.

"Merciful prophet, I am very sorry that I have brought some strangers here. The Duke of York who is captured by you is our friend. We hope you can let him go."

Lawrence glanced at Garp, and then at the men and women from the Western Kingdom behind Garp.

Khalan reminded: "There is a wizard on the other side."

The people on the opposite side are also sizing up the fighting power here.

People like Fleiss are the main force in the battle at first glance, but everyone is more concerned about the legendary Crow Feather Prophet Lawrence.

Especially the 50-meter bust of the colossus at the door. It is said that this colossus can stand up from the ground!

Clean and tidy houses, flat streets, and a large number of warriors who look young and good at fighting.

This place doesn't look like a primitive tribe at all, and is even cleaner and tidier than many cities in the Western Kingdom.

Rumor has it that the place where Crowfeather Seer lives is even more beautiful and the land there is richer and more fertile.

After Lawrence appeared, everyone has been paying attention to this calm and elegant man.

On the contrary, the wizards behind him were less conspicuous.

Everyone knows that this young man raised his hand and created a stone giant more than 100 meters high. He also raised his hand and made the barren land prosperous.

After a few seconds of stalemate, Lawrence said calmly: "Let the Marquis of York come out, it's time for him to go home."

The nobles and knights behind Garp breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone ventured here because someone assured that the Crow Feather Prophet did not like fighting and was a wise man who could speak well.

Lawrence asked: "Where are the pirates you captured? I agree that strength is the priority, but I also like peace. If I can get what I need without fighting, I don't want to have a fight."

Karp explained: "They are all on the ship. This time we have brought goods, cattle and sheep, and are willing to exchange these for the Marquis of York, and of course those pirates."

Lawrence nodded, "Okay."

At this time, a man wearing full armor took off his helmet and held it at his waist, revealing long red hair.

"I am Baron William Spurrier of the Kingdom of Glen. Our king has learned about the situation here and is willing to invite you to the Kingdom of Glen as a guest."

Lawrence said: "I am very happy that someone welcomes me like this, but I still have a lot of things to manage here and cannot leave here. Please go back and tell King Gran that I welcome him to be my guest."

William said politely: "Yes, I will convey this goodwill to the king."

Lawrence smiled and said: "My place is relatively remote, and few people usually come. I am very happy to have so many people here today. Go to the tavern, and I will entertain you for free."

When William saw that Lawrence was as easy to talk to as rumored, he took the initiative and said: "I have brought the grain produced in the Kingdom of Glen, including wheat, rye, oats, barley and ale."

"Okay." Lawrence accepted everything. "I also have a lot of supplies here that can be exchanged. Let's eat first. You can have a good chat with the Marquis of York."

Garp took the initiative and said: "Then I will send someone to bring Red Beard..."

"Wait!" A middle-aged noble interrupted Buffy's words and said solemnly to Lawrence: "I can't believe you. I have to bring the Marquis of York back before I agree to let those pirates go!"

Lawrence asked Garp: "Who is he?"

Garp said: "This is Viscount Hendra of the Deco Kingdom. Red Beard and others were captured by Viscount Hendra."

Lawrence nodded, "That's okay. Let's eat first. I will entertain you with good wine and good food."

Hendra warned: "I will not eat barbarian food! You have been asking us to eat, I suspect you did it on purpose! Let the Marquis of York go quickly, we have to leave here immediately!"

Garp and others became nervous, and even the wizard Spree who followed them became worried.

Although Spry is a wizard, he is not a person who wants to die. He does not have the courage to defeat Lawrence and the five wizards behind him.

Lawrence said speechlessly: "You don't have to eat, you can just stand aside and wait."

At this time, his men brought out the Marquis of York.

The Marquis of York has lost a lot of weight these days and looks a little haggard.

After the Marquis of York came over, everyone looked at this man.

Garp looked at the Marquis of York's men. Although the people present came to rescue this man, there were only a few people who actually knew the Marquis of York.

The knights under the Marquis of York quickly said: "Marquis, we are here to rescue you!"

After seeing that this person was the Marquis of York, the others were relieved.

Lawrence said to the Marquis of York: "Your friends have brought a lot of goods and wealth in exchange for you. Do you want to leave with them now, or have a meal before leaving?"

The Marquis of York has been eating unpalatable potatoes, vegetables and water every day for a while, and his daily life is miserable.

Despite this, people here do not limit their freedom.

Mainly because it was too hard for more than 30 people to eat and defecate. People nearby didn't want to clean up all day, so they let them go to the toilet and eat by themselves.

The town is not big, and these people have no place to go if they want to escape, so they still return to the yard obediently every day, being more docile than chickens and sheep.

The Marquis of York breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the reinforcements, and quickly said calmly: "I choose to have a meal before leaving, but it can't be that kind of cheap food."

Lawrence was easy to talk to, "Okay, you are no longer a prisoner, but my guest. As a guest, you can choose the food you like to eat."

The Marquis of York said quickly: "I want to eat the one I ate for the first time. Is it called pancake?"

Lawrence said to Ai Ali: "Let the kitchen start cooking. You first make food for several people, pancakes, potato stewed with mutton, fried potato powder, fried chicken legs and chicken stewed with mushrooms."

"Yes, Prophet." Ai Ali quickly went to work.

Also with them were the maids who came over, Brielle and Emma brought people to help.

Lawrence led everyone into the tavern, and the women brought some fruits one after another.

At the beginning of winter, oranges are normally ripe, and everyone quickly shared the peeled oranges.

Then came the wine and ale, and soon the egg and garlic pancakes.

The Marquess of York liked pancakes very much, as did Cap and others.It was the first time for Karp and others to eat this soft and delicious food, and they quickly finished one pancake.

Afterwards, all kinds of delicious food were served, and with the stimulation of alcohol, the atmosphere soon became lively.

Those knights who had been touching their weapons since entering also forgot to be on guard and ate the delicious food they had never tasted before.

Even when they attended noble banquets, most of the food they ate was cold food. In the barbaric era where there was a lack of seasoning, eating was just for food and clothing.

But here, eating is a pleasure.

Even Hendra, who had been very guarded before, was now eating the fried vermicelli with a fork.

Lawrence sent them back after everyone had eaten and drank.

On the beach of Dumu Port, Karp and others did not wait for Hendra to speak, and immediately had people start unloading the cargo.

Hendra said nothing more and walked to his big ship to let him go.

Lawrence and Saryl had never imagined this ending before.

The man who everyone thought was invincible was tied tightly with hemp ropes and looked very weak. He was driven off the ship by several men.

After Andrew saw Lawrence and Salil, the expression on his face was a little ashamed and embarrassed.

Also coming down with Andrew were Red Beard and several other Valkyries.

Lawrence welcomes Andrew's return, but he doesn't want Red Beard.

It is difficult for these people to integrate into the group, and it is difficult for them to engage in normal work. In addition, they have a preconceived notion of looking down on themselves as ordinary people, and they will not be obedient even if they come back.

"I will only change one, and forget about these people." Lawrence said proactively: "They are not my people, but the Valkyries. I have enmity with the Valkyries. You can take these people back and deal with them yourself."

Lawrence decisively betrayed Red Beard and others.

After hearing this, Redbeard shouted angrily: "Lawrence! You are hurting me!! I will not let you go, I will kill you!!"

From Red Beard's point of view, it was all Lawrence's fault that they were being targeted.

Faced with the insults from Red Beard, Lawrence smiled.

The next moment, the red beard's beard and hair quickly burned!
The people around Red Beard quickly left the man, and the wizards and knights nearby also looked at this place with vigilance.

Redbeard's beard, hair, and clothes quickly burned, and before the rope around him broke, his head turned into a fireball due to the high temperature.

The burning man was rolling around in circles on the ground and quickly ran towards the seaside, trying to use seawater to extinguish the flames on his body.

Soon there was a body in the sea.

"Mother, you don't actually need to take action yourself." Lawrence thanked Lathander casually, and then looked at the frightened Valkyrie, "I wanted to let him go, but he died."

"This is not what I want to see. I am merciful and decide to give you a chance. You can return to the Wakili tribe and go back to your home."

William came over and said: "Crowfeather Prophet, we, the Kingdom of Gran, the Kingdom of Haisenli, the Kingdom of Deco, the Kingdom of Durila and the Kingdom of Hokuriku, have formed an alliance. If you can stop the invasion of the Vakiri, we will I’d like to support you.”

“Including providing items such as food, slaves and wool.”

Lawrence smiled and said: "Then the kingdoms other than yours do not yet have a cooperative relationship with me, nor do they belong to my usual trading partnership. You should not interfere in matters between me and them."

William quickly said: "Of course, our king is willing to pay a reward, hoping that you, the prophet, can stop the barbarians in the Kingdom of Luofen."

Lawrence said: "I can only say that I will try my best to stop them. If they bypass my place and attack your place, it has nothing to do with me."

William thought that was enough, "I will tell His Majesty the King."

Marquis of York said nervously: "Crowfeather Prophet, your warriors will not visit the Hokuriku Kingdom again, will they?"

Lawrence smiled and said: "If you pay enough remuneration, not only will I not invade the Hokuriku Kingdom and your territory, I will even send troops to help you resist the invasion of other kingdoms."

The Marquis of York felt much relieved and said: "I will organize a fleet to trade with this place after I return."

Lawrence said: "Then please send the slaves from the City of Water over. In return, I will exchange the luxuries here. In addition, nobles from all over the world are welcome to visit me, but it is not free. I hope they can bring some value." something in exchange.”

"It doesn't matter if you don't have money. I lack people to do things here. You can work for me for a period of time in exchange for food, drink and accommodation."

The two parties quickly discussed basic cooperation matters on the beach.

Once the rest of the group began to board, Lawrence used a small boat to banish the Valkyries.

When Lawrence returned, Salyl was preaching to Andrew, and Andrew listened without saying a word.

"Lawrence, are you really a wizard?" When Andrew saw Lawrence coming, he didn't recognize him.

Lawrence smiled and said: "I have not lied to you, but things have developed to a point where I don't know yet."

Andrew didn’t understand what this meant, and quickly defended: “The man named Hendra is very powerful, and they also have a wizard who will blow us up with strong winds and throw us to the ground from a height of more than ten meters. "

Lawrence understood very well, "A kingdom must not be all trash, there must be some powerful people. Your opponent is a kingdom, not a village anymore. It is normal to be captured. This is a fight between a few people against the many people." When fighting, it’s normal to lose.”

Andrew felt a lot better and became unusually relaxed.

"Lawrence, you are still so good at talking. It was the right decision for me to hand Salil over to you!"

Lawrence smiled and said: "Andrew, take a good rest for a while. There are many warriors as strong as you here. You guys get along well. I will let you fight next spring."

"How can a person's pursuit of the glory of battle be as enjoyable as fighting with a group of like-minded warriors?"

Andrew also noticed Fleiss et al.

There is indeed a strange tacit understanding between men. Andrew only saw the physique and temperament of these people and knew that these people were not wimps.

"It seems so."

After hearing this, Lawrence said: "Then you stay here first. There are enough drinks and food here. Don't be idle. Help me guide young people like Beow. After Doug and Friesen leave, , you are the last elder of these young people."

Although he and his daughter have not seen each other for a long time, Andrew still feels that Lawrence's arrangement is more comfortable.

"Okay!" Andrew liked this arrangement very much.
