Warlord: King of All Clans

Leo smiled and said, "It's the same in the North. Count Fontenay of the Gustav family wrote an article saying that the River Bend secretly nurtures aliens and studies the power of demons, which is against the Holy Light and the gods. He reported it to the Grand Duke of the North and demanded that we completely destroy firearms and disperse the aliens."

Yue Gechaer immediately found his confidant and complained indignantly, "These old antiques, I am a superhuman, can't I tell whether it is the power of the devil or not?"

Leo was a rare person who shared the same ideals, so he explained, "The big guys' stance is all driven by interests. Our firearms are powerful, and they can't defeat us head-on, so they can only use other means to suppress us."

Gustavus, Count Fonteyne, secretly stabbed Riverbend because he was not included in the Five Earls' coalition, but was defeated by Six.

Since they were unable to mass-produce firearms in their own territory, they simply issued a statement in the name of the Church of Holy Light, claiming that the River Bay firearms belonged to the power of the devil.

Then he appealed to the Grand Duke of the North and sent letters to all the earls, hoping to unite the heroes and force Riverbend to destroy the firearms.

The remaining four lords of the North had just joined forces with Riverbend to divide up Beboos. They were in their honeymoon period and had no intention of following Count Fontenay.

But they were also afraid of the firearms in Rio's hands, so they remained silent, did not support Fontenay, did not support Rio, and just watched coldly.

Leo is not afraid at all. He just needs to shut up and see who the Grand Duke of the North supports.

Being favored and fearless, poor Count Fonteyne continued to be a marginalized person.

The Tarhan tribe in the west is different. Its rise in recent years, especially its annexation of the Yuezhong tribe this year, has caused the other eight tribes to unite against a common enemy, and serious diplomatic rhetoric is flying to Ulanggar like snowflakes.

No matter how proud and complacent Shi Latu was, he did not dare to use force against foreign enemies for the time being.

Yue Gechaer said enviously, "Hewan is still powerful and is not afraid of suppression from other forces. Our Tarhan tribe is suppressed by the Ten Tribes Council. We have to be very careful when using firearms in the past two years."

"If our Tarhan tribe can forge its own centurions or spears, just like Hewan, we won't have to worry about other people's criticisms."

Leo asked, "How many firearms craftsmen do you have now?"

Yue Gechaer said quickly, "About 500 people."

Leo patted his chest and said, "Send them all to the river bend. I will teach them advanced firearms technology."

Yue Gechaer's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Before he finished speaking, Arina on the side whipped her brother on the back with a horsewhip and scolded him, "Are you stupid? Can you send it back after you sent it there?"

Yue Gechar now fully trusts Leo and somewhat doubts what his sister says, but does not dare to refute.

Leo argued for him, "How could I think highly of your firearms craftsmen? When they arrived at the river bend, they were just a bunch of apprentices who lived there to make a living. I was generous not to ask you for tuition."

"Besides, you are preparing to recuperate now, so you don't need so many craftsmen, right? Why not send them to Hewan to learn for free?"

Yue Gechaer immediately said: "I'll tell you..."

Arina raised the whip and Yue Gechaer immediately shut up.

Arina rolled her eyes at Leo and said, "You can fool the kobolds with this, but it's pointless if you fool us."

Leo laughed out loud, young people are so interesting.

In the firearms workshop established by Yue Gechar, craftsmen not only made guns and cannons, but also refined sulfur and made saltpeter using traditional methods.

In addition, due to backward technology, the production capacity of 500 people is less than that of the small workshop of 100 people in Hewan.

But these are all skilled workers. If they were sent to the river bend, Leo would be able to have a full meal.

The lord's mansion of Ulangal has a strong Western style, similar to the Arabic style. The courtyard is full of gauze curtains, and the hall where Talhan holds a banquet is decorated like a big tent.

In the vast western territory, in addition to the ten major human forces, namely the four grassland tribes, the four desert tribes, and the two seaport tribes, there are also many areas occupied by foreign races. Therefore, the culture here is also very complex and the styles are varied.

Although the Tarhan tribe is a grassland people, the architectural style here is influenced by the southwestern deserts and seaports.

When a group of western tribal leaders heard that the Earl of Riverbend was coming, they all gathered under the tent early, wanting to meet the famous Rio Mundo.

As the Berk of the Western Territory, the Talhan family did not worship high-level warriors, but it had many mid-level warriors. The general Goshuman who impressed Leo, the chief centurion Dukak, and the former commander of the Bak Fortress Valhan, were all sitting at the table.

Goshuman and Dukak are both advanced intermediates, and together with Arina and Valhan, these four people alone can easily suppress a seventh-level warrior.

Leo immediately understood that although Slatu seemed very friendly to Hewan and warmly welcomed Leo's visit, he was actually still very wary.

Leo has now been promoted to a high level. If he suddenly turns hostile and wants to kill Shilatu on the spot, Arina alone will not be able to stop him.

Seeing Leo coming in, Shila suddenly stood up to greet him, "Hahaha, brother Mondo, long time no see."

In fact, the two had never met each other. During the battle for Buck Fortress, Leo was still working in the imperial capital.

But this did not hinder the performance of the two. Leo walked up quickly, as if he saw an old friend, "Lord Burke, long time no see!"

Seeing the two of them chatting cordially and both the host and the guest having a great time, the centurion Dukak at the side could not help but spit inwardly.

The last time he served as the vanguard in Buck Fortress, he lost five or six extraordinary knights and hundreds of Qiexue, which meant that more than half of the family's core troops were killed or injured. Therefore, he hated Hewan to the core.

The original plot for the position of Beg of the Tarhan tribe ended in failure.

After the greetings, there was also a gift. Leo took out a dragon bone scimitar from his magic pocket and presented it with both hands.

"Lord Burke, I was fighting in the North this year and accidentally killed a dragon. I used the best rib of the dragon to forge this weapon. It is an epic magic weapon that is rarely seen in a thousand years."

"Since ancient times, precious swords have been matched with heroes. This priceless epic sword is only worthy of you, Slatu Tarhanberk, and it can also be regarded as my compensation for temporarily guarding the Buck Fortress."

Shi Latu stood up in shock, carefully took the dragon bone sword, and asked, "Is this sword famous?"

Leo was stunned, "Uh, the swordsmith called it the Joy of Fire."

"Good! Good!" Shi Latu took the sword, his old face flushed, and he was extremely happy.

Arina next to him stared at Leo jealously. This miser never gave gifts to others, but today he gave a priceless sword.

In fact, this dragon bone sword was a piece of dragon bone fragment picked up by Leo and many other powerful men when they were decomposing a dragon skeleton. After a little trimming and polishing, it became the shape of a scimitar.

But it is also a bone fragment of a holy dragon. Although it is not as exaggerated as Leo described, it is also worthy of the title of a precious sword.

The dragon bone fragments are tougher than a tempered steel knife and contain rich fire element magic.

If someone is cut by this scimitar, they will be infected with fire poison, suffer from severe heatstroke, or even die from heat stroke.

However, there are still dozens of such fire weapons in Hewan.

With the gift of the scimitar and Leo's flattery, Shi Latu lost his guard and began to entertain Leo seriously.

After a round of boasting, chatting, drinking and eating, Shi Latu waved his hand and called his four daughters over.

"Brother Mondo, these are my four unmarried daughters. Pick one and I'll send it to your tent tonight."
