Lord of the North

"My lord, those servants are all dead. A total of seventeen pieces of light armor and one chain armor have been collected." Lancelot reported to Jason who was browsing the system in the carriage.

After the battle, it was discovered that Jason was still a little uncomfortable with the corpse, so Lancelot took the initiative to contract the task of cleaning the battlefield. Even though some of the standard light armor worn by these soldiers had been damaged, it was still a rare good for ordinary people. thing.

"Everyone had their necks broken." Lancelot said with a frown. He would never shoot unarmed civilians.

Alas, even though I guessed that Rott might not stay alive in order not to leak the news, I still felt a little stuffy in my chest after actually getting the news.

"I don't have time to bury them properly. Let's dig a nearby pit and bury them. The chain armor will be handed over to you after the territory is repaired." It seems that these servants are all ignorant, and this time they just suffered an unreasonable disaster. This made Jason feel a little guilty, but Jason didn't know if there would be other assassins lurking around, so they had to go soon!

As for Rot's death, Jason didn't intend to report it. The death of a knight in the Northland was not a big deal, but it was not a small thing. After all, he was not his servant, but the king's subordinate. It would be troublesome to be caught by the stubborn group of the noble council, just pretend that he is obsessed with the scenery of the Northland and insists on staying here. Presumably King Lopez will not send someone to question his son because one of his men has not returned.

"We have limited conditions now, and I have wronged you." Jason glanced at Lancelot apologetically.

A piece of chain armor was indeed not worthy of his strength and status, even to him, this piece of chain armor was dispensable, but Jason, as the lord, could not neglect his knights.

"It's all right, my lord."

After instructing Lancelot, Jason turned his attention to the system again. The main interface of the system is very simple, with only his basic information, tasks and dial options.

He took a look, the system tasks were divided into main tasks and side tasks, and there were three carousel tasks!

The three lottery roulettes are ordinary, advanced and luxurious. There are everything from ordinary to epic in the ordinary roulette, but there is only one epic, and the probability is pitifully small. There are even two blank prizes in the prize area !

"I also said that avoiding the system's deep sleep will allow me to develop well, and the lottery has left me with such a big hole." Seeing this, Jason couldn't help complaining.

"This is to prevent the host from becoming dependent on the system, and getting something for nothing will easily corrupt your fighting spirit!"

No matter what you say, you are right!

The prizes of the high-end carousel range from exquisite to legendary, and there is one less blank prize area, while the luxury is from excellence to myth, and the blank prize area disappears!

However, when Jason saw their lottery requirements, he immediately withered.

100 points for ordinary turntable, 1,000 points for advanced, and 10,000 points for luxury!

And I only have a pitiful 80 remaining points, and after I reach the iron tooth collar, I can complete my first task before I can conduct a normal lottery draw!

"System, let's discuss it." Jason said to the system with a shy face: "This lottery is too expensive, and I was killed before I developed it after a few lottery draws!"

"One price, no discount! Please don't indulge in gambling, the host, and work hard to develop the territory is the best policy!" All right, all good people let you be!

"The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard!" Jason was speechless at the shamelessness of the system.

"But why no side missions appear?"

"In view of the current situation of the host, this system does not think that you have the time and energy to complete side missions."

You are so considerate! Jason shut up instantly, he realized that he couldn't speak up to this shameless system, no matter what, it was justified.

"My lord, we can go." Lancelot came back after disposing of the corpse in a while.

Jason had only one carriage, and Lancelot condescended to be the coachman first,

If it gets out, other lords and nobles will definitely insult him and waste everything!

If they have such a strong man under their hands, they will definitely confess as a treasure. How can anyone ask him to be a coachman!

Lancelot drove the carriage without speaking a word.

It seems that his first subordinate is a taciturn person, Jason touched his chin, such a person is difficult to communicate with!

Apart from the sound of the wheels turning of the carriage, it was quiet along the way, and an atmosphere called embarrassment rose from the bottom of Jason's heart.

"Ahem, Lancelot, do you have any specialties?" Jason, who felt that he should know more about his subordinates, took the initiative to stir up the topic.

"Fight, train, command." Lancelot's answer was so simple and direct, which made Jason even more embarrassed.

Then what? Shouldn't you introduce yourself in detail? Jason felt that his previous life experience was completely useless.

But to Jason's relief, it seems that Lancelot is an excellent general, which will make it easier for him to control the Iron Fang collar.

After all, Iron Fang Territory is remote, and there has been no lord to rule it for many years. The ruling power of the kingdom is very weak here, and there is only a small nobleman who is not popular here to maintain law and order, and this small nobleman can be regarded as one of the old nobles As a member of the team, there is no guarantee that no one will bring some trouble to him!

For example, the local snakes!

In a town of nearly 10,000 people, there will definitely be some shady forces, and after Jason arrives in Iron Tooth Town, he must first take over the town's defense force, and then he must deal with these gray forces!

Safe eradication is impossible. Where there is light, there must be darkness. If the method is too radical, it will cause a backlash! On the contrary, if you use gentle means to deal with these forces, it will have a miraculous effect, at least let them not cause trouble for yourself!

If necessary, you can also promise some benefits, such as giving them some legal rights in Iron Fang! After I really control the iron tooth collar, it's time to really settle the ledger!

As for those civilians, I don't care too much about them for the time being!

Did you start to think in an aristocratic way not long after time travelling? Will he eventually become a tyrannical lord who only cares about his interests and disregards the life and death of the people? That would be really scary! Jason rubbed his forehead in distress, he seems to have picked up this habit recently.

After thinking about it for a long time, Jason found that his predecessor's understanding of iron teeth collar was really too poor! I only know that the environment there is relatively harsh, more than half of the year is winter, and the food production is scarce, and even have to buy from other territories frequently.

He only knew that the entire territory was about the size of a city in his previous life, but the population was less than 20,000. Tieya Town had nearly 10,000 people, and the rest were scattered in the territory in the form of dozens of villages.

Then, there is no more! !

For example, he doesn't know anything about Iron Fang collar's finances, taxation, defense force, territorial resources, etc.!

In fact, he can't be entirely blamed for this. After all, after learning that there are less than 20,000 people in the iron teeth collar, Jason's predecessor was already desperate, so he didn't have the heart to care about it! In this kind of society, the population represents wealth, the military, and everything!

"It's really a headache. This has added a lot of possibilities for accidents to my plan." After all, Jason's understanding of the Iron Fang collar's situation is based on his vague memory combined with his own speculation, so it's impossible. No disclosure occurs.

"The general direction of the plan remains unchanged, and the rest of the details can only be dealt with after arriving at the destination!"

He looked faintly at the northern sky through the window of the carriage. As night fell, a few scattered stars appeared in the sky.
