Chapter 30 Choice
"If you are willing to become a noble, then I will take you two over there and let you enjoy the life of a noble man."
"If you are not willing, I will reject His Majesty Seres."
"Wait a minute..."
Locke's father rubbed his forehead. He felt that now he must sort out what Locke said first.
His son Locke is a magician at the sanctuary level.
Locke had already admitted this when the villagers were still there.
Even in the Frost and Snow Empire, strong men from the holy realm are almost considered "legends".
The power of the strong men in the sanctuary was accumulated through crushing wars.
Even a ninth-level warrior is no different from an ant in front of a strong man from the holy realm.
Of course, the villagers are limited to their own knowledge. They only know that the strong men in the holy realm are very strong and can kill tens or even hundreds of thousands of people in an instant.
Speaking to the outside world, if a strong man from the holy realm appears in his own village, he will definitely arouse the envy, jealousy and hatred of the people in the surrounding villages.
However, to say more, the villagers cannot experience more.
After all, for the villagers in Pu'er Village, who is a strong man in the sanctuary has little impact on their lives.
Who can lead everyone to live a good life is what everyone is more concerned about.
At this point, the villagers all feel that Locke's younger brother Cole, now the president of the Lucci Chamber of Commerce, should do a better job.
Every year, Cole brings people from the Luch Chamber of Commerce to Pu'er Village to purchase medicinal materials in the village, and the prices given are the highest in the entire Enbo Territory.
However, what these villagers don't know is that Locke also has indelible contributions to the development of the Lucci Chamber of Commerce to what it is today.
In the early days of the development of the Lucci Chamber of Commerce, President Lucci took Locke's skin and frightened some bandits on the trade routes.
Sometimes, when the goods of the Lucci Chamber of Commerce are robbed, or the trade routes are occupied by high-level monsters, Locke personally takes action to solve the problem.
However, with Locke's younger brother Cole breaking through and becoming a seventh-level warrior in recent years, the Lucci Chamber of Commerce has completely established its foothold.
At the very least, Locke has not received a request for help from the Lucci Chamber of Commerce in the past ten years.
Manra walked around the house with his hands behind his back.
If he couldn't beat Locke, Manra would have wanted to hit Locke on the head to see if there was something wrong with Locke's brain.
That’s a title...
Moreover, he is the highest-ranking "Grand Duke" in the Frost and Snow Empire besides His Majesty the Emperor.
If this news spreads, not only Locke, but even himself will probably be called a fool by countless people!
Let me ask, in this world, who else but a fool can give up such a title?
However, when I think of my son’s character...
"Alas..."
Manra finally let out a sigh.
Although he likes his current living situation very much and likes to chat with old friends in the village.
Because his two sons have become the most promising people in the village, everyone respects Manla very much, and Manla also likes everything now.
However, if you can become a noble, you can't give up now.
"Son, you don't have to think about it. Your mother and I will go with you now."
"Quick, quick, old lady, hurry up and see if there is anything else that needs to be packed at our house. Let's go over there with Locke now."
"It's too late. I'm afraid this guy has a seizure and will give up his title to someone else."
"Alas, I'll take care of it right away."
Locke's mother has been accustomed to Manla arranging everything for so many years.
As long as it is a decision made by her husband, she will not refuse.
"Okay, okay, Father, I know what you mean."
Seeing his parents hurriedly packing their things, Locke smiled bitterly and said: "Don't worry, since you all want to experience the life of becoming a noble master, I will naturally not give up this title." "But, father, mother..."
"The war over there has just ended. Many places have been destroyed and have not yet been rebuilt."
"Let's do this. I will go to the imperial capital to find His Majesty Seres first and decide on this title."
"Then let the soldiers under his command start building the city in the territory and the city lord's palace."
"Father and mother, please stay here for a while. I will send a message to Cole and ask him to come here to pick you up."
Looking at Locke, Manra nodded happily and patted Locke on the shoulder.
Now, the extent to which Locke has grown is completely beyond Manla's imagination.
However, Locke has never changed. He is still a good son who is filial to his parents and a good brother who cares about his younger brothers.
"Okay, then you go about your business first, and we'll be with Cole."
"Yeah."
……
"Whoosh..."
"Lord Locke."
As soon as Locke descended from the sky, the guards in front of the tent immediately stepped forward to salute.
"Thank you for your hard work."
After nodding and saying something to the guard, Locke walked towards his tent and asked the guard.
"By the way, that guy hasn't died in the past half month, right?"
"Well, according to your instructions, Lord Locke, we just cooked some gruel for him as food every day."
"A few days ago, this prisoner broke free from the binding rope. I cut off one of his hands according to the instructions you left. Now this prisoner is quite sensible and has not made any other noise."
"Oh?"
Locke raised his eyebrows.
He is truly worthy of being a holy warrior.
Most of the bones in his body were shattered, and he was able to recover to the point where he could break free from the rope in about ten days just by relying on a hydrotherapy technique.
It is conceivable that if he had not made arrangements in advance, this guy might have escaped secretly by now.
“Well done.”
Locke expressed his appreciation for this guard with satisfaction.
"By the way, you will send a message to the five captains later, saying that I am back and ask them to come see me."
"Yes, Lord Locke."
After waving his hand to ask the guard to retreat, Locke opened the curtain of his tent and entered the tent.
Compared with half a month ago, there is now an extra cross-shaped wooden shackle inserted in the ground in Locke's camp.
A man covered in blood was tied to a wooden shackle with a rope.
The ropes that bound the man were almost completely sunken under the man's skin, as if there were no bones in the man's body, and his skin and flesh were all loose.
In addition, the man's right hand had been severed at the elbow, and congealed blood scabs could still be seen on it.
Locke didn't feel unjust at all about the treatment this man received.
