Dear Broom Knight
#155 - Lowry, sharp and irritable
"Lowry is a good kid, but he's also really crazy." The White Dragon King warned him very seriously at the time, "The closer he gets to a critical moment, the more calmly insane he becomes.
He looks and sounds like a normal person, but in reality, he's gambling with his life.
Once you discover, no, once you suspect that Lowry is in this kind of situation, you must be careful.
Only Mrs. Yagris can stop him at this time.
Nasimento Montes would hide so well that you couldn't even find his shadow."
Alex felt that he had unfortunately encountered this kind of moment, and Lowry was obviously jumping back and forth on the edge of seeking death again.
Although he knew that his maternal grandfather dared to let them be here and contact a certain lady, it meant that the other party would definitely not suddenly attack them.
Of course, the main reason was that the White Dragon King was not far away, and Alex might be useless, but Lowry would definitely have a way to block the first move.
That guy must have a lot of life-saving things from Arsland on him.
It's rare for the court archmage to have a satisfied student, how could he watch him go looking for excitement!
He didn't know if it was because the mage cultivation had stabilized his mind a lot, or because all the annoying people and the people he was unwilling to accept had disappeared... In short, he seemed like a person now.
Alex had known Lowry for so long, and he really couldn't imagine that he would be crazy enough to climb into the mouth of a white dragon he had just met, no, he should say he had only exchanged names with, to look at her big teeth, and even gave her a mouthful of saliva because she couldn't control herself.
The little calves that Ruth Kania loved to eat were bigger than Lowry at that time.
In short, even if it was to prevent himself from being implicated in the future just because he was present, Alex bravely opened his mouth to stop Lowry's next words.
Fortunately, Lowry's madness had indeed improved a bit.
As soon as Alex spoke, Lowry turned around and walked to the side, sitting on his broom and circling around his head.
Fortunately, the two clerics also had rifts between each other, and were obviously wary of each other. Although they spoke to Alex together, they were at least 10 meters apart.
Perhaps because they didn't want Alex to feel that they were planning to coerce him, the two of them also carefully maintained a distance of 10 meters from Alex... Alex could of course feel this little thought.
And Lowry was currently flying in a circle with a radius of three meters above Alex's head.
So, seven meters is the activation distance, and three meters is the key, right?
Even while muttering about Lowry's madness in his heart, Alex still grasped the key point... He knew that Lowry must have been observing these clerics in the sky for a long time, and must have discovered some of the other party's combat characteristics.
Confirming that Lowry still had enough reason at this moment, Alex's heart settled, and he showed a slightly apologetic smile to Ians, whose expression was not very good: "This kind of thing can't be forced.
Lowry doesn't care about things that are convenient, but he's not interested in managing too much.
As a mage territory, Gezal's tax revenue is already unusually low.
Lowry didn't open any mines, so there's really no need to consider the lives of the common people anymore."
Lowry's refusal of the mines, a common need for mages, was not a secret.
Although the tax revenue of the mage territory has always been very low, after all, most mages will not organize any knights, and some even ignore the affairs of the territory.
Although the tax revenue is low, it is not safe, and black forces are prone to appear.
Of course, these forces don't dare to do too much, otherwise it will easily attract the mage lord's suppression... Even if it's not for the safety of the territory, it's for the money.
But the reason why there are still many people in the mage territory is that each mage has his own mine.
Most mages care about precious gems and other mage materials, so as long as the miners work honestly, they are very willing to pay them.
Compared to working for those gem merchants, working for a mage is much more comfortable.
And the people who can be miners will never have poor physical fitness, and most of them have a bit of knight talent that cannot be trained. They are not afraid of any black forces.
However, even with so many benefits, miners are still a profession with a mortality rate comparable to that of the border guards without a formal war, and they die more than adventurers.
Moreover, most miners do not live long.
In a special place like the Gezal territory, if Lowry really asked his people to be miners, the consequences would be really hard to say.
Alex couldn't quite understand why Ians was clinging to the good treatment of Lowry's territory.
In his opinion, this is very normal.
Gezal has too many people entering the adventurer industry, and there are also many in the army. It is inevitable that such a place will be managed lightly or heavily.
Lowry can think of a way to solve the problem. It is really the best solution... As the new lord, when there is no demand for the common people, he also found a way for the common people who want to improve their lives through hard work. What else can others say?
As for making the entire Gezal territory rich as a result, there is no way. Everywhere, the poorest people work the hardest.
These people are only worried about not having a place to make money, how can they stop when they see something good?
And people who are already living well can make their lives better by working hard once in a while.
Alex is of course very concerned about the people's livelihood. The king must gain the support of the common people to fight against the nobles.
He is very clear that the success of the Gezal territory is an accident, but the result is inevitable.
Alex has also gained a lot of inspiration from it, and is preparing to use it in his own direct territory when he goes back!
So, what exactly does this Dark Moon want to explore?
What's wrong with Lowry?
High Priest Clayton looked around, then smiled and said: "Baron Lowry is focused only on magic, and doesn't even want mines. It's normal that he doesn't want to cause trouble for himself.
Although Ms. Ians is well-intentioned, she can't force a mage to do good deeds.
Our Lord has always taught us to only obtain willing kindness."
Although he was speaking by stepping on the Dark Night Church, he did ease the atmosphere at the scene.
Anyway, even if Clayton didn't offend Dark Moon, the two of them kept giving him daggers with their eyes.
It wouldn't matter if there were a few more knives.
These believers of gods, sure enough, none of them are good things!
Alex, who had recovered from the tension of worrying about Lowry exploding, finally realized one thing:
Ians's words were not only a test for Lowry, but also a pit dug for both of them.
And, High Priest Clayton also deliberately avoided that pit in his words.
Probably because they discovered that the White Dragon King actually came out of a one-time dimensional gate carried by Alex.
Having a deep understanding of the intimacy between Alex and the White Dragon King, these guys' first reaction was to quickly provoke them.
The constantly emphasized military tent is the most critical factor.
Whether it was Alex or Lowry, they were obviously deeply loved by the White Dragon King.
But how much he trusts them... Alex is very clear that the White Dragon King may believe that Lowry has no other thoughts, but he will definitely suspect him.
Of course, there is nothing to say about this.
If he could really silently dig at his maternal grandfather's foundation, Alex would definitely do it.
The real reason why he has always been honest is that he can't do it.
So, instead of thinking about those useless things, Alex believes even more that his maternal grandfather will definitely cherish his little life.
Maybe this time, the White Dragon King who is nearby can believe that he was just temporarily tempted and forgot the taboos that should be paid attention to... Once something is determined to be military supplies, it should not be discussed by him and Lowry if they want to leave the country.
Lowry never communicates with the outside world. Even if there are merchants from afar, they all go directly to his territory... These foreign merchants who can travel in the Northern Kingdom are strictly controlled wherever they go, and they must explain in advance what materials they want to trade.
Moreover, most of the merchants can only trade directly in Qingfeng Valley. Entering Lowry's territory requires layers of investigation.
Valera... Alex still feels a little regretful in his heart... She is really very, very excellent.
Even the position of queen, Miss Valera is qualified to sit on it.
She is so beautiful, and so shrewd and capable!
Although Lowry did not obtain strong human resources from either of his parents, it is really not a loss to have such loyal good subordinates as the Tolle four siblings.
Of course, although he is very envious, Alex knows that he cannot spend so long waiting for a small tree to slowly grow into timber. He can only pick ready-made ones to use.
Gently shaking his head, shaking away the rising envy directly, Alex had to return to reality... If he and Lowry really reached a transaction agreement casually when Ians kept mentioning military supplies, then the only one who would be unlucky in the end would definitely be him.
At least this proves that he is not as respectful and trusting of his maternal grandfather as he appears on the surface... Of course, this is not true. Putting aside the conflicts of interest between the two countries, Alex really trusts his maternal grandfather very much.
Even if one day he can really lead the Icefield Kingdom to independence, it does not mean that he will launch a counterattack against the Northern Kingdom... Independent autonomy is the eternal pursuit of a king, and Alex never thinks that such a dream is wrong.
Then he understood why Lowry was so angry.
If, when the relationship between the two parties breaks down, this transaction becomes an arrow pointing at him, Alex, then what will Lowry, who traded with him, Alex, become?
Lowry may not have understood what kind of trap was inside, but he must have felt the malice inside.
That child has been very sensitive since he was a child, and seems to be able to feel other people's attitudes towards him.
Alex glanced at Ians lightly: "Don't offer useless suggestions."
