Warlord: King of All Clans

The lord's house in Linhai Town is still built in imitation of the Hewan Peninsula, but the stones and wood used are more intact.

The stone foundation underneath was made of finely processed gravel slabs.

If Freya had not existed, the civilian pioneers of the river bend would have consumed a month's labor of the young and strong villagers just to dig and move the stones for the foundation of the big house.

This is just a two-meter-high stone wall foundation, built with simply hewn rough stones. If it were hewn into large square stones like building a castle, it would take all the labor to die and there would be no way to build it.

But now, the ogres' increasingly sophisticated blasting technology, the craftsmen's increasingly sophisticated stone processing technology, the cement's ever-increasing quality and production capacity, and the large amount of manpower and animal power have made the construction of the River Bay Territory exceptionally simple.

Building a castle is not a difficult task.

As Leo approached the lord's house, he keenly noticed several pairs of eyes in the crack of the door.

He jumped off his dragon-scale horse, pushed open the door, and shouted, "Who is spying inside?"

Before he finished speaking, Olivia, dressed in a holy robe, had already thrown herself into his arms.

"Leo, I missed you so much!"

Leo hugged Olivia and said with a grin, "Call me Sir!"

Seeing Olivia's confusion, Leo boasted desperately, "Because your man is brave in battle and has made many great achievements, the Grand Duke of the North was so impressed that he adopted him as his son."

"So, I am now a noble Lord."

The heirs to the imperial nobility can all be called knights, and according to the traditions of the North, an adopted son is even ranked before an illegitimate son in the order of succession and also has the title of knight.

Unconsciously, Leo had grown a few centimeters taller. Olivia looked even smaller in his arms, but her voluptuous body still made Leo feel comfortable.

And unlike before, she is no longer the country girl who works hard all day, but a holy girl wearing a holy robe.

Long-term pampering and nourishment from holy light have made her skin fair, her spirits high, and her temperament more sacred and inviolable.

Even though they were an old couple, Leo couldn't help but be dazzled by her beauty.

It was also a pleasant surprise to see my wife, who used to wear work clothes without makeup every day, suddenly put on makeup and changed into a set of clothes only for role-playing.

Olivia didn't care whether he was a knight or a knight. She quickly felt around his body to see if he was injured. She looked up at Leo and flattered him with a smile, "Yes, Sir!"

Their eyes met, filled with love and desire, their breaths gradually became hot, not only Olivia's, but Leo's hands also became dishonest.

The dog-headed calculator Seti next to him also looked up at his human boss, wagging his tail and jumping for joy, waiting for an intimate interaction with him.

"Woof woof woof, I want a hug too!"

Olivia kicked Seti out of the door.

At the same time, Leo also kicked back and kicked out Freya who followed in happily.

Two little things, hugging each other and questioning life.

The young couple, who had not seen each other for half a year, kissed passionately.

No matter how many sweet words there are, no matter how much love there is, nothing can be more relaxing than a hearty duel!

"Why are you still wearing your armor? It's so hard to take off!"

"Hey, don't tear my clothes, this material is precious!"

The four Rose Knights who were originally thinking about protecting their mistress soon couldn't bear it anymore and quickly fled the house, closing the door for their master with red faces.

Outside, Knight Solovy and Agata smiled at each other, and went to prepare dinner, gather their friends, and entertain the dusty Leo.

The battle was extremely fierce and lasted until dark. The little dog-headed girl came in in the dark, tried hard to collect the clothes scattered on the ground, and dragged Leo's heavy armor with difficulty to clean up the battlefield before the guests came in.

In the room on the second floor of the big house, Olivia lay on Leo's body and finally found a scar on his chest.

This was a wound that was accidentally inflicted during the battle at the hunting base. After a wolf orc's long knife cut through his heavy chain mail and armored vest, the remaining force still cut through his skin, leaving a half-foot long bloody wound.

However, this level of injury was only a superficial wound for Leo. He didn't even have time to bandage it before the wound closed up on its own and stopped bleeding.

Now, only a faint white line remains, and only under the illumination of the holy light can it be seen as a scar.

As for the scars of varying sizes from the past, there is basically no trace of them now.

Olivia's fingertips glowed with holy light, and she kept rubbing it on Leo's scar, trying to erase the mark that pained her.

But the white lines left behind are the result of slight distortion of the skin as it heals itself, not a true injury.

Unless it is cut open and treated again, the Holy Light cannot erase it immediately.

In order to satisfy Leo, this time she did many actions that she was reluctant to do before and unlocked many new skills.

At this time, she was so tired that she didn't want to move. She didn't even want to pay attention to the noise coming from downstairs. She just kept drawing circles on Leo's chest.

Leo was exhausted from fighting outside, but Olivia was not having an easy time managing nearly 10,000 people in the river bend either.

Without the intimidation of the Riverbend bully Leo Mundo, many things were too much for her to handle.

But now, these troubles can be thrown to the unreasonable Leo again!

Leo combed Olivia's long golden hair with his fingers and asked, "How did you become the Goddess of Holy Light? It's not a good thing for you to help the Holy Light Church preach like this."

Olivia was also helpless when talking about this. "The new refugees in the river bend are too difficult to manage. They are well fed and well served, and don't have to do any heavy work, but they always make trouble."

"Brother Dewitt gave me an idea. If we want to quickly win people's hearts, we can start with faith and use the Holy Light to win over most people."

Although the management of Hewan had several experiences in recruiting refugees, they lacked systematic management knowledge after all, and Leo, the leader, was still away on the expedition.

A small number of refugees could be easily pacified, but the influx of thousands of refugees immediately put everyone in a state of panic.

To some extent, the nobles' disgust towards refugees and savages was justified.

They do not have such noble moral qualities that they would starve in order not to infringe on the rights of others.

I don't have enough common sense to listen to you if you think you are right.

If refugees have no food, they can only rob. Once they have today’s food, they want tomorrow’s.

If you have food, you want clothes, and if you have clothes, you want a house.

If you give too little, you will continue to snatch it; if you give too much, you will feel that you are getting a great bargain.

A lord with slightly poor management skills will suffer a great loss because of this, or at least be disgusted and leave a psychological trauma.

Therefore, most lords would rather drive away the refugees cleanly and efficiently than risk this bad luck, even if they have enough food and land.

Leo nodded. "It's indeed a good idea. At least it's much better than suppressing it with force. But it will also cause great trouble. We need to use it with caution."

Olivia smiled and said, "That's none of my business. This is your responsibility!"

She got up and went to look for her clothes, "Let's go down, everyone is waiting for dinner."

Leo turned over and pressed her under him, "What are you eating! I want to fight until dawn!"
