Lord: Harvest two talented teenagers at the beginning

Chapter 36 Relatives gather together and plot before departure



Gutland, when Baron Alcott received Verin's letter, his first reaction was suspicion.

"Butler, go and call Archon Abt over."

"Yes, sir."

After the butler left, Alcott sat down with the letter and looked at the information carefully again.

It has a specially made family crest, which he believes was made by his nephew. But how did the other party know that more than two hundred mountain dwarves would escort a batch of orichalcum through the border area of ​​the Gray Mansions Wasteland.

"There are big questions about whether I should agree or not." Alcott tapped on the desk regularly and began to think about the pros and cons.

After a while, Abt, the chief consul of the Gutland and Alcott's guardian knight, arrived in the study, saluted him and said, "My lord, you are looking for me."

"Abut, look at this."

Seeing his confidant arrive, Alcott handed the letter directly to Abbot for him to read.

A few minutes later, Abt thought about it and replied: "Your Majesty, I think the information described in this letter has an 80% probability of being true. It is impossible for your nephew to make up a lie to fool you." ."

"Under this premise, the leading mountain dwarf is definitely not weak in escorting precious metals like orichalcum. According to your nephew's strength, he will definitely not be able to snatch it, so I am asking you for help."

"Finally, for your promotion to Viscount, all the basic requirements have been met, except for military merit. This time is an opportunity."

"Therefore, I think you can agree to go."

Alcott thought for a while and thought it made sense. His nephew could not fool him like this. This would cause a serious blow to his family's reputation.

"Okay, you go down and let the knights assemble. This time, I want to retrieve enough mountain dwarf heads to add the last brick to the promotion to Viscount."

"Yes, my lord."

When Alcott made up his mind and began to assemble his troops, as soon as Brian in the Ridge Territory received the letter, he led all his bronze knights and knight attendants to the Lake of Praying Stars, leaving the territory to the magic energy. Knight Adrian manages it on his behalf.

Finally, in the Maple Leaf Territory located in the northeastern part of the Cardro Province, Alik's father Edgar called his son over as soon as he received the letter.

"Father, you are looking for me."

Hearing this, Edgar opened his eyes, looked at his eldest son, and asked: "Verin Akers, the fifth son of the contemporary family, what do you think?"

After hearing this, Alik was stunned. He didn't know why his father wanted to ask about this.

However, since his father asked, he could only answer truthfully.

"I met Verin in Brian's castle and spent some time together. He owns the city and knows how to weigh the pros and cons. The most important thing is to be cautious."

"Okay, go gather some people and prepare to go with me to Verin's territory." After hearing this, Edgar ordered Alik.

"Yes, father."

He didn't ask why he did this, trusting his father to make his own decision.

……

On September 9, an unusual day, Alcott, Edgar and Brian arrived at the Lake of Praying Stars with their respective subordinates.

"Two cousins, cousin, please come in."

With a smile on his face, Weilin brought his two elders and cousin to a carefully decorated room.

After everyone was polite, Weilin took out the terrain map he had scouted in advance and began to explain the plan.

"Uncle Alcott, Uncle Edgar, and Cousin Brian. In four days, more than two hundred mountain dwarves will escort a group of orichalcum through this place. The one with the highest strength will be a high-ranking silver man."

Alcott, who was sitting first on the left, looked at the detailed terrain map on the table and asked: "Welin, everyone has their own secrets, but I still want to make sure that there will really be The mountain dwarves escorted the orichalcum mines through here.”

On the other side, Edgar also had a serious face, staring at his nephew whom he had never met before, hoping to get his affirmative return.

As for Brian, he didn't care. Anyway, he believed that Verin would not lie to him, and he didn't care whether it was a lie.

"Two elders, I swear to the goddess of life and my family ancestors that everything I say is true."

When the two middle-aged men saw this, they already believed Weilin's words.

"In that case, let's discuss this action plan."

Alcott, as the most powerful person among the four, deservedly took over the command of this operation.

Edgar on the opposite side nodded in agreement, and Verin and Brian made no sense.

After all, Alcott brought the most people during this operation, including two hundred bronze knights and six silver knights. He was also a high-level silver knight himself.

Next came Edgar, with one hundred and twenty bronze knights and four silver knights.

Then there's Brian, fifty bronze knights, plus himself, a silver knight.

Finally, he himself dispatched eight bronze knights and two silver knights.

"In this operation, I will resist the high-level silver warriors among the mountain dwarves."

"Edgar, Brian, you two lead the remaining Silver Knights to resist the other mountain dwarf Silver-level enemies."

"As for Verin, Alik, you are responsible for leading the bronze knights to encircle and suppress the remaining mountain dwarf transport personnel."

"Since our actions will definitely trigger retaliation from the other party, the information must be kept confidential and we must not let a mountain dwarf escape."

Seeing Alcott finish speaking, Verin asked, "Cousin, can you use this opportunity to blame the centaur for this matter?"

Everyone in the conference room looked at Weilin, very confused.

"Tell me."

Seeing this, Verin took out a bone token from his arms, with the words Doris written on it, as well as the unique mark of the Centaur clan.

Alcott recognized the token at a glance and asked doubtfully: "Where did you get the Centaur Silver Warrior token."

"Uncle, I can't tell you this, but we can use this opportunity to stir up the relationship between the mountain dwarves and the centaurs, so that we can clear our suspicions."

"Weilin, this kind of thing is easy to be exposed, and doing so will bring us great hidden dangers." Edgar clarified the relationship and advised.

"Uncle, don't worry, even if the matter is exposed, the ultimate finger will not be pointed at us, but at the Harkes family."

After careful consideration, Alcott nodded and said, "Yes, but when deploying, use deodorizing potion to cleanse the breath on the token to prevent the other party from searching for it with magic."

"Uncle, I understand."

The next day, 378 Bronze Knights and 14 Silver Knights left the Lake of Praying Stars with enough supplies and headed 150 kilometers southwest to ambush the mountain dwarves and rob the rare metal of Orichalcum .
