From Baron to Lord

Who would think they have enough of a precious resource like the spirits of nature?

But he had to change his plans.

Because not long ago, when the entire South was cheering for him.

His system gave a notification.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for activating the achievement mission: Hero!"

"Hero: Turning the tide from collapse, supporting the falling Great Xia, you are not only the lord of the Skywolf Territory, you are the hero of the Lionheart Duchy. At this moment, your sword will bring future and dawn to the common people. You are a knight, you are a noble, and you are the hero in everyone's eyes."

"Please recover the territory of the Lionheart Duchy."

"Mission Reward: 500,000 experience points! Permanent title: Hero! An ancient and mysterious map."

"Title Hero: Obtaining the title will grant the Hero title's exclusive aura, the Hero Aura."

(Money)

"Hero Aura: A hero is justice. No matter where you are, you will automatically be judged by others as a partner of justice. Aura effect one: You will automatically gain the favor of all people in Lionheart +50, and in other regions +20. Aura effect two: Personal charm +50. Aura effect three: Personal luck +10."

"Evaluation: Heroes are always able to have the favor of others. They are powerful, charming, and have a little bit of luck."

Although the 500,000 experience points and this pretty good hero title were very tempting, for Allen, experience points and titles were not the reasons that would attract him to waste time recovering the entire Lionheart Duchy.

What really made him change his mind was the last seemingly inconspicuous, but actually very conspicuous "ancient and mysterious map".

This was the first time Allen had seen the system mark a reward in orange text.

Just a map was worth the system emphasizing it so much, of course Allen couldn't let it go.

Chapter 225: Gusto's Rage, Allen's Name (5 Seeking Subscriptions, Seeking Auto-subscriptions, Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

"What?!"

In the royal capital, Gusto, who was enjoying the company of countless beauties, climbed out of the pile of women. The fat, bloated man's expression was completely gone of the ease and comfort he had just had.

At this moment, he was staring wide-eyed, grabbing the collar of the servant in front of him in shock.

"It's... It's true, sir, the South... The army of the Duchy of Shaker in the South was completely wiped out after encountering the men of Earl Allen of Skywolf... I heard... I heard..."

The servant was grabbed by Gusto's collar, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble.

He had served this lord for a long time, of course he knew that this Earl Gusto was a typical fickle person.

One second, he could promise women countless gold and silver treasures and spend a good night with them, but the next second, he might turn his face and deny everything, directly executing the woman.

This shockingly terrifying Earl made the servants fear from the bottom of their hearts.

"Heard what! You trash, can't you even speak properly?!"

Gusto glared, he slapped the servant hard in the face.

"I heard that the marquises of the Duchy of Shaker have all been... killed by Earl Allen."

The servant squatted on the ground, covering his face, his voice trembling slightly.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Damn it, you bastard, how dare you lie to me!"

Gusto instantly denied the servant's news, and then revealed a cruel smile. He waved his hand, and immediately several knights in knight's armor grabbed the servant's arms and lifted him up.

"No, sir, I didn't! No, don't do this, sir, I beg you, I didn't lie..."

The servant immediately struggled, but how could the strength of an ordinary person break free from the knight's restraints?

Gusto took a metal-gleaming morning star mace from the wall not far away. This was a weapon with a handle connected by an iron chain to a round hammerhead with hard spikes.

The spikes on the morning star mace already had a layer of blackened blood stains, it could be seen that its owner seemed to use it often.

Gusto dragged the morning star mace step by step towards the servant who was already trembling with despair.

In despair, the servant was so frightened that he wet his pants, which made the tyranny in Earl Gusto's eyes even heavier.

The fat earl did not care about the horrified expressions of the surrounding women, he cursed in his mouth, and the iron hammer in his hand had already swung up.

"Bang!"

Blood splattered everywhere!

"Trash! Pig! Lowly insect! Damn it!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Soon, blood was splattered everywhere, and even many women were splattered with blood.

After a long time, a corpse that had been twisted beyond recognition was dragged out.

Gusto immediately walked out of the room and asked people to prepare hot water for a bath.

"Replace everything in the room for me, as for the women inside, they have been contaminated by that pig's blood, drag them out and feed them to the dogs." Gusto finished speaking and left directly.

"Sir!"

The women wanted to chase out, but were stopped by the knights at the door.

"The earl does not like you people who have been tainted by the flesh and blood of others." After saying that, the knight drew his long sword.

"Sir, what do we do now?"

Earl Gusto, who had already taken a bath and looked brand new, was calmly addressed by a golden knight beside him.

Earl Gusto's face was slightly gloomy.

After venting his anger, Earl Gusto had to accept this reality.

As the boss behind the largest pleasure district in the duchy, this earl's information network was still pretty good.

Of course, he would not think that his intelligence network had made a mistake.

After all, this had already been confirmed by the golden knight beside him.

The fact was that the army of the Duchy of Shaker had really been wiped out.

"A bunch of trash! Wasting His Highness the Prince's support and help, it's already come to this point, it was clearly only a little bit away from annexing the Lionheart Duchy! These dregs, idiots!" Gusto couldn't help but curse the four marquises of the Duchy of Shaker who had already been lost.

After all, Gusto had put in more than ten years of effort to help the Duchy of Shaker realize its ambitions. It was clearly about to succeed, but now it had fallen short, and he even heard that the Southern army had continuously recovered large swaths of territory.

Earl Allen of Skywolf's reputation had become higher and higher, and at this moment, this young earl's reputation was even no less than that of Grand Duke Lionheart!

Damn it!

This bunch of trash!

Gusto couldn't help but curse again in his heart as he thought of this.

He really couldn't understand how Marquis Sword Tiger and the others could have lost!

But there was no way, things had already happened, and Earl Gusto had to make some choices and decisions.

The fact that he had betrayed the Lionheart Duchy had long been spread, and at this time he could no longer continue to stay in the Lionheart Duchy.

"Prepare to pack up and leave here, return to the kingdom, the matter in the South has already failed!"

Gusto said through gritted teeth.

"Yes, sir."

The golden knight nodded slightly, and then left immediately.

At this moment, Allen had already led the army into the territory of Marquis Mad Lion.

This was already the second day, and at this moment, the news of him annihilating the 200,000-strong army of the Duchy of Shaker had spread throughout the entire Lionheart Duchy.

The remaining scattered forces of the Duchy of Shaker, upon hearing this news, the first reaction was disbelief, but then they panicked and began to run away.

So in the past two days, Allen's progress had been extremely rapid, almost able to recover two or three earl territories in a day. Anyone who heard Allen's name was terrified, this guy was an unparalleled fierce man who had killed four marquises!

Thinking about Allen's achievements, he was simply a killing machine!

Who would dare to fight him?

Those who didn't believe in evil before had already cooled down.

"After recovering Mad Lion Territory today, we will be almost near the royal capital tomorrow."

Allen rode the Silvermoon Wolf, he was currently receiving the worship and blessings of all the common people in Garick City.

On both sides of the street, there were densely packed kneeling common people, and Garick, as the city lord, didn't mind this.

"Long live Earl Skywolf!"

"Praise you, sir, you are our hero!"

"Invincible Lord of the Silver Wolf!"

In the cheers of the common people, Allen smiled slightly and nodded to them.

At this moment, Albert and Earl Garick beside him both revealed excited expressions.

They didn't expect that they would be able to do this.

When they first formed an alliance with Allen, they had never thought that they would be able to get to this point today.

To be honest, both of them were unsure at the time.

Allen's performance was quite strong at the beginning, but it wasn't so strong that they thought they could defeat the army of the Duchy of Shaker.

They were purely desperate at the time, wanting to unite to resist the attack of the Duchy of Shaker, and try to delay time as much as possible.

But Allen gave them a surprise.

To be honest, the scene of Allen killing the marquis that day was still vivid in their minds.

The two of them felt that they had won in such a confused way.

The day after winning, they still had a dreamlike feeling as if they were dreaming.

Now, although they had completely accepted this fact, the two of them couldn't help but be excited.

The things they were doing would undoubtedly be recorded in history.

What an honor this was.

"We are about to complete the feat of recovering the duchy, Allen, after this time, you will definitely be able to ascend to the position of marquis!" Earl Garick revealed a smile.

Allen smiled lightly when he heard this, he didn't speak, marquis?

He didn't just want to be a marquis.
