Overgod Ascension

"The Wilfer family?"

Wu Ming asked.

On the continent of Seer, having a surname means having at least a little bit of noble blood.

"Yes, the Wilfer family is also a member of the blue blood. This James seems to be the second son of Baron Wilfer. Unexpectedly, he has formed a mercenary group and is serving Viscount Garcia! This is very important to old Wilfer. It must be an unbearable shame! You know, he is a die-hard supporter of the count!"

Baron Terry said in disbelief.

"What should we do now? Give him to Baron Wilfer, or send a message to Viscount Garcia?"

Historically in wars, prisoners with a high enough status could receive preferential treatment and a ransom would be extorted from the other party.

Although this James Wilfer is only a mercenary leader, his status is high enough and he is the second son of a nobleman. These are not the only people in the entire Silver Eagle mercenary group.

The most important thing is the issue of reputation.

If Viscount Garcia does not pay the ransom for these people who are loyal to him and fight to the last moment, then everyone will inevitably betray their relatives, and will there still be that mercenary and adventurer willing to serve him?

Therefore, there is no doubt that he must redeem James.

"No matter what, let's escort him back to the military camp first!"

Baron Terry's face showed embarrassment: "Baron Wilfer is also a good friend of mine. I want to leave the handling of James to Baron Wilfer, William..."

Theoretically, James was still a prisoner of William at this time, and even Baron Terry could not dispose of him at will.

"Can!"

Wu Ming naturally didn't make anything difficult. He looked at the sky and immediately twitched his ears: "The count's cavalry has come to greet us. Let's go to the military camp together!"

This Baron Terry meant to make friends with him, how could he not see it?

Therefore, it is necessary to win over each other and enhance friendship with each other.

The relationship between the two families has become quite good in the past few years, and Wu Ming also needs such a noble alliance.

At this time, seeing the Earl of Blue Mountain's cavalry arriving, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, both feeling that their relationship had taken a further step forward.

The Earl of Blue Mountain's military camp was very large, with a wooden wall erected around it, trenches dug, and sharp wooden points pointed at the enemy.

Just as soon as they entered the military camp, the tents were scattered a lot, with flags of various families hanging, giving it a very chaotic feel.

However, this is the norm for the noble coalition, and Wu Ming believes that Viscount Garcia is not far behind.

"My vassals and knights, are you finally here?"

In the main tent, the Earl of Blue Mountain stood up. He looked much fatter and bloated than before, but his eyes were still shining.

"I have brought a knight and hundreds of soldiers to serve you!"

Baron Terry saluted first and said.

"very good!"

The Earl of Blue Mountain looked at Wu Ming: "My dear William, the wealth you brought under Carlos has spread throughout the plains. What did you bring this time?"

"I brought four hundred men, all the corresponding weapons and equipment, and fifty horses!"

Wu Ming smiled slightly, and not surprisingly saw the commotion among the nobles around him.

After all, including the previous one hundred soldiers, his military strength has reached five hundred, which is more than a baron.

"Haha... William, you are indeed my most loyal knight!"

The war was imminent, and with such strong support, the Earl of Blue Mountain seemed very happy: "You are here just in time. We are about to hold a banquet, enjoy fine wine and delicious food together, and then completely defeat Garcia!"

Wu Ming and Terry saluted and took their seats, and then they were a little surprised to see the beautiful black widow Tana opposite them.

The opponent's Wolf Heart mercenary group was completely absorbed by the earl in the previous martial arts competition. After losing Alfred, Tana did not get a knightly fief as she wished, but was only conferred the title of an honorary lord. , at this time also came to join the battle with the heart of the wild wolf.

After seeing William, a seductive smile appeared on the corner of the other person's mouth, and his plump red lips swayed under the light.

Snapped!

A roasted whole lamb was placed on a huge tray and carried up by four cooks. The aroma was wafting over it.

Around the roasted lamb, there is a circle of fruits and vegetables.

The Earl of Blue Mountain stood up, pulled out a silver dagger, and cut the meat of every noble and knight present.

These are his rights and obligations as a lord, and represent the connection with these vassals under his command.

Dismembering an entire sheep was an incredible feat for the Earl of Blue Mountain. By the end, he was already out of breath.

However, it is worth mentioning that among all the knights, Wu Ming was the first to get his share of the barbecue, and it was also the most delicious part of the lamb chops, which represented his important position in the earl's heart.

Many nobles who saw this scene had thoughtful expressions on their faces.

…

"William! It seems that the Earl values ​​you very much. Maybe after the war is over, you will have to marry one of his daughters..."

After the banquet, Baron Terry followed Wu Ming back to the camp.

Out of close consideration, they chose two adjacent camps so that they could easily help each other in case of an accident.

Of course, for Baron Terry, his small number of people is of no use at all. He should pay more attention to the fact that he can easily get Wu Ming's protection.

"Actually, I don't object to marrying a lady who is a prince, if the bride price she requires is not so high..."

Wu Ming said with a serious face.

"Unless you show more value in the war, the Earl of Blue Mountain's name of Warcraft is not fake..."

Baron Terry had an expression that couldn't help but laugh, and he had obviously heard about the Earl of Blue Mountain's hobbies for a long time.

"alright!"

After slandering their boss together and feeling that their relationship had deepened, the two began to talk about business. A sad expression finally appeared on Baron Terry's face: "I'm afraid the outcome of this battle will not be very good!"

"Um?"

Wu Ming looked at Baron Terry with a surprised look.

This seemingly dandy guy seemed to suddenly become smarter.

"It's not me...but an in-law of my family. She sent me news in the highlands. The Heroic Family will not sit back and watch Viscount Garcia's defeat. When we are fighting against each other, we also need to be careful of the raids of the highland knights. !”

"In-laws in the Highlands?"

Wu Ming asked doubtfully.

"That's an aunt from our family. She married to the highlands. There, the Gregor family, whose symbols are redbuds and doves, are our family's in-laws. We are very close by blood!"

Baron Terry announced with some pride.

This is the essence of nobility!

Wu Ming somewhat understood that in his previous life, even aristocratic families could not pass on their glory and interests for a long time, but the nobles of these western fiefdoms could!

Even if a knight family exists for hundreds of years, it will always accumulate some trump cards and unknown relationships.

This is the so-called ‘underlying’.

"Then have you informed the Earl?"

Wu Ming asked in a low voice.

"I have written a letter to warn the earl before, but unfortunately... he doesn't seem to take it to heart at all!"

Baron Terry shrugged his shoulders: "But it doesn't matter. The worst I can do is be a prisoner again. Anyway, I'm here and I have fulfilled my obligations as a courtier to the earl!"

Wu Ming looked at this rogue-like guy and was completely speechless.

However, judging from the general rules among nobles, even if these blue bloods lose their land, they will receive unanimous hospitality wherever they go on the Seer continent due to their long history and blood origin.

On the contrary, the Wallace family are pure upstarts and will only be despised by the upper class.

Therefore, we have to say that what Baron Terry said does make some sense.

Even if the Earl of Blue Mountain is defeated and even deprived of his title of earl, Baron Terry will not suffer much trouble. At most, he will only lose a little fiefdom.

'It's a pity... This is only for these old blue-blooded nobles with complicated relationships. I don't want to have this kind of preferential treatment... Most of the families in Fengying Plain want to bite Carlos hard on this piece of fat. A bite of meat! ’

Wu Ming thought silently in his heart, and strengthened his determination to capture the entire Fengying Plain.

‘The nobles are just outsiders. As long as they show their power to dominate and guarantee their rights and interests, they don’t care at all who rules the Fengying Plain! ’

"And Baron Wilfer, I already talked to him at the banquet, he will secretly send someone to take James away!"

Terry continued: "He expressed his gratitude for your kindness and his kindness to me, and promised to send his best wishes."

"very good!"

There was a slight smile on Wu Ming's lips.

Immediately, the voice of a guard suddenly came from outside the camp: "Sir, Lord Tana wants to see you!"

"It seems you have other things to do tonight!"

Terry's expression suddenly became quite ambiguous: "If you disturb other people's wonderful night, you will go to hell...be careful!"

He stood up, saluted gracefully, and immediately walked out of the tent.

Seeing Baron Terry's disappearing back, Wu Ming had a slightly improved impression of the nobles. It seemed that he was not a complete fat pig or a worm, otherwise he would have died in the fierce succession elimination competition.

Just as he was thinking this, a sweet smile like a silver bell suddenly sounded, accompanied by a fragrant wind blowing into the tent.

"Sir William!"

Tana walked in. She was wearing tight clothes, and her appearance looked more and more mature and attractive, like a peach, which was mouth-watering.

"Lord Tana!"

Wu Ming nodded politely and looked at this uninvited visitor.

Of course he knew that behind this woman's beauty, there was an extreme danger: "I haven't congratulated you on becoming a Lord yet!"

"It's just in name only!"

Tana glanced at Wu Ming with some resentment: "If possible, I think all honorary lords would not hesitate to exchange this title for a knighthood as a fief."
