"The Savoy family...it's them. ஜ۩۞۩ஜஜ۩۞۩ஜ"

Lu He thought which family was so brave, but it turned out to be the poor Savoy family.

He spends a little time every day to understand the power and various businesses of the Soros family.

Because in a few days he will be officially canonized by the Crescent Empire royal family and become the new head of the Soros family, the 16th Earl of Soros.

By then, everything in the Soros family will belong to him and will be a source of assistance in his quest for truth, so Lu He is quite concerned about these things.

As for the Savoy family, they are a new viscount noble in Xiangmu City. Information shows that this family has two extraordinary knights in this generation, and their strength is at the average level among the viscount families in the Crescent Empire.

The Savoy family and the Soros family are technically partners.

They provide the raw materials for the production of spices, and the Soros family specializes in processing them into finished products, and then has their own caravans buy the finished spices to the southern coast of the empire.

Obviously, most of the profits in this spice interest line have been made by the Soros family.

The reason is simple: middlemen make the difference, and the Soros family plays the role of middlemen, squeezing the Savoy family and plundering downstream customers.

The Savoy family is definitely not willing to give in, but the Soros family is far stronger than them. Although they are a local force, they are still suppressed by the Soros family.

Now, it should be the unexpected death of the head of the Soros family that made them think carefully.

"There must be other families involved in this, otherwise the Savoy family would not have the courage, let alone travel so far to Highland City to carry out assassinations." Lu He thought to himself.

Because measuring the strength of a family is not only the number of extraordinary knights, but also the foundation and influence.

Just like the Soros family, excluding the dead head of the family, there appear to be only four knight-level extraordinary beings who directly belong to them, but there are far more than four knight-level extraordinary beings that can be influenced and mobilized, not to mention the number of knights' attendants.

After thinking for a while, Lu He gave up because there were too many different nobles, organizations, and forces.

"When Butler Jose finds out, kill all the suspects and the forces behind them!"

"The crime is colluding with foreign races and being anti-human!" Lu He said to himself, listening to the sporadic gunshots outside the window.

Click!

The sound of the cup breaking interrupted his thoughts. He turned his head and saw that the half-elf's hand was shaking again.

"Don't be afraid. I'm not going to kill you and your tribe. You will just follow me from now on. No one will dare to bully you."

Lu He was a little worried that his first humanoid supernatural race would be frightened, so he held her little hand to comfort her.

"Well...if your clan leader is willing, you can also cooperate with the Soros family in the future."

"Thank you... thank you, sir." Selya's thin hands instantly stiffened and she whispered softly.

The originally pale face began to turn pink again, but the thought of mentioning it was put down.

"Sir, it's just... isn't your cooperation with our tribe colluding with other races and being anti-human?" Selya suddenly remembered what Lu He said just now, and she was a little confused.

Lu He laughed dumbly, pinched her pointed ears with his left hand, and said seriously:

"How can these be the same! The starting points of the two are completely opposite. The Savoy family is squeezing you."

"But I'm not. I want to form a permanent partnership with your half-elf tribe, promote friendly relations between humans and half-elves, and create a beautiful situation of harmonious coexistence, common development, and mutual benefit and win-win."

"Oh!" Selya nodded in understanding, feeling that what the adult said made sense.

"You're thirsty, drink more water." Lu He looked at the half-elf's pale little hands and felt that she was a little anemic, so he took another cup and filled her with hot water.

"Thank you, sir~" Selya finally lost her fear and smiled happily.

I have to say that the half-elf is very beautiful. When she smiles, she looks like a blooming white orchid, beautiful and holy.

Lu He, a long-tested warrior, was slightly distracted.

Next, Lu He asked for some information about the alien races in Dawn Forest and the distribution of their forces.

When he learned that there were werewolves, vampires, barbarians and other alien races in Dawn Forest, the blood in Lu He's body began to get excited, and he wanted to kill them now and capture all these extraordinary species into his laboratory.

It took a while to regain my excitement.

The two chatted until late at night before Lu He called Nicole and asked Selya to sleep with her at night.

Before leaving, under the half-elf's complicated gaze, Lu He drew a tube full of her blood.

Early next morning.

After Lu He meditated, he felt full of energy and his eyes were shining brightly.

He silently felt his condition, then calmly got up and washed up.

As he broke through to the knight level, his body began to feed back his soul, and his recovery speed became faster and faster.

new

He felt that within three days at most, he should be able to return to the mental level of a junior apprentice.

After being able to use magic power, many spells can be cast, and the recovery speed will be further improved.

"Master Sauron, the suspects have been screened out overnight. Do you want to go and take a look?"

When Lu He walked downstairs, Butler Jose was sitting on the sofa in the hall waiting with his sword in hand. Opposite him were Liu Jin and Kath, who had dark circles under their eyes and kept yawning.

Apparently, the two of them were kept up all night last night by the occasional gunshots and screams outside.

When Lu He saw Liu Jin's appearance, he felt more cordial.

Liu Jin's skin color was originally very white, comparable to that of a half-elf. The contrast became even more obvious after adding dark circles under his eyes. He was very similar to the giant panda on Earth.

"Let's go and see who are against humanity."

"Zoron-san, what are you doing against humanity?"

"Zoron, shouldn't it be a crime of murder? Why are you suddenly anti-human!?"

Lu He's words left the three of them a little confused.

However, he did not explain and asked Butler Jose to lead the way to the place of detention.

Liu Jin saw this and followed him.

It didn't take long for the group of people to arrive at the central square of the farm, where the bonfire party had been held.

At this time, the square was already surrounded by guards from the Soros family, surrounding the center of the square in a circle.

Most of the guards were knights with swords, and a few were ordinary soldiers with flintlocks.

Moreover, archers were placed at several commanding heights around the square, scanning the entire place vigilantly.

Along the way, Liu Jin was secretly frightened, seeing for the first time the true strength of the Soros family.

Most of these guards are knight attendants, among whom there are at least thirty high-ranking knight attendants.

Especially the twelve black knights in heavy armor standing next to the square. She could feel the majestic and unmoving momentum even from a distance.

In addition, there is a strange knight-level extraordinary.

If we include the coachman Mark we saw yesterday, the white-haired housekeeper we saw this morning, and her student Zoro, there are four in total!

You must know that the knight level here is the same level as the fighters in Dongzhou.

Her sect, the Jinghua sect, only has two fighters, and her family has only one. Both parties combined cannot compare to the Soros family who are present, let alone those who are not present.

"Hello, Master Sauron!"

"Master, good morning!"

"Master, good morning!"

Fleet gave an awkward salute with his left hand because his right hand was in a cast.

"Well, Fleet, you're great!"

After Lu He heard Fleet calling him the head of the family, he nodded with satisfaction and patted him on the shoulder to show encouragement.

Of course, more importantly, his performance was indeed good. On the way here, Butler Jose told him that Fleet had captured Elijah, the patriarch of the Savoy family, alive.

"Thank you, Patriarch. Fleet will swear allegiance to the Patriarch to the death!"

After hearing what Lu He said, Fleet knelt down on one knee, his face flushed with excitement, and even a little incoherent.

This scene shocked Liu Jin behind him again.

Although she had heard about the chivalry spirit in Xizhou, this was the first time she saw a knight kneel down and take an oath.

Because in Dongzhou, the status of fighters is extremely high, and they can choose not to kneel even when facing the emperor of the Eastern Empire.

"Mark swears to be loyal to the master of the family to the death!" Mark knelt down on one knee holding a sword and swore loudly.

"Swear loyalty to the master of the family to the death!"

"Swear loyalty to the master of the family to the death!"

"Swear loyalty to the master of the family to the death!"

As the two of them knelt down, other knights around them also knelt down on one knee and swore loudly. Even the white-haired butler Jose beside him also knelt down.

Suddenly, the sound of swearing allegiance was so loud and deafening that it echoed over the square.

this moment.

Lu He truly became the patriarch of the Soros family!

Apart from ordinary soldiers, the only people still standing at the scene were Lu He and Liu Jin.

Ordinary soldiers simply bowed because they were not qualified to take the oath of allegiance.

Only those who have embarked on the road of knighthood are eligible. This is the ancient tradition of Xizhou.

Liu Jin only felt extremely embarrassed. It didn't matter whether he knelt or not. He was at a loss.

I wish I could dig a hole on site and bury myself in it.

"I accept your allegiance!"

Lu He slowly pulled out the long sword from his waist, pointed the tip of the sword diagonally into the sky, and then slashed it down instantly.

Tear!

A brilliant sword energy shot straight into the sky, cutting through the air, leaving behind a long rolling white wave that never dissipated for a long time.
