Chapter 32 Commitment
Just when Locke was about to do something, he suddenly stopped his movements and leaned back on the chair.
"Lord Locke, Gasko, Cross, Marik, Berkley, and Dar have arrived."
"Well, let them in."
After getting Locke's permission, the five captains of the Tsunami Legion entered the camp one after another and bowed slightly to Locke.
"Lord Locke."
After the five people entered Locke's camp, they saw the man tied to the wooden shackles at first sight.
This situation made the five captains suddenly feel uneasy.
Is it because they offended Lord Locke last time, so Lord Locke wants to torture them like he tortured this guy?
Or...
However, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they did not dare to show it in front of Locke.
"Well, you are here."
Locke glanced at the five people. The guards who had just camped had already mentioned the names of the five captains.
However, this was the first time that Locke knew the names of the five of them, and the guard said them together, so Locke couldn't tell who the five of them were for a while, and he couldn't match the names with the people at all.
However, Locke is not in a hurry to tell. Anyway, if there are no accidents, the future of the five of them will be bound to him.
"Based on my considerations over the past few days, I have decided to become the Grand Duke of this territory."
"I was not in the camp a few days ago, but I went to the imperial capital to report to His Majesty Seres about the victory in the battle against the Temple of Light."
"And as you wish, His Majesty Seres gave me this territory."
"From now on, this territory will be renamed 'Lock Territory'."
The five people in Jaske looked at each other, and their eyes were all filled with joy.
This time, I and others made the right bet!
"Congratulations to Lord Locke for becoming the Grand Duke."
"Gasko, Cross, Marek, Berkeley, Dahl."
"My subordinates are here."
Hearing Locke's name, the five Gascos immediately responded loudly.
"Now, the five of you will immediately start building Locke Territory."
"I hope that within half a year, you can build a city that can accommodate more than one million people without affecting the lives of the people in Locke Territory."
"This is the first task I give you. I hope you will take my words to heart."
"After the city is built, I will grant you the title of noble based on your performance in this mission."
"Yes, Lord Locke."
After receiving Locke's promise, the five of Gasko were overjoyed. They knelt on one knee in front of Locke and expressed their allegiance to Locke.
"Lord Locke, let's start preparing now."
The excited five people, after swearing allegiance to Locke, planned to immediately start completing the tasks assigned by Lord Locke.
After all, Lord Locke said that after the city is built, he and others will be knighted.
The title of aristocrat is their lifelong pursuit!
If they were not afraid of disturbing the people in the territory and making Lord Locke unhappy, they could issue labor services in the territory and let the young and strong people in the territory build the city.
In this way, it will take at most one month to complete the task assigned by Lord Locke.
However, since Lord Locke has pushed the time to half a year and said that it cannot affect the normal life of the people in the territory, they naturally cannot do this. However, this does not trouble them.
In order to complete the construction of the Locke Lord's Mansion earlier and allow themselves and others to obtain the title of nobility earlier, they felt that the soldiers under their command could not not contribute their own efforts to the construction of the city.
The soldiers in the Tsunami Legion are all intermediate warriors at least level three or above. If they are used to build a city, each one of them is a high-quality labor force that can equal ten to one.
Of course, even if the five of them, as captains of the Tsunami Corps, want their soldiers to participate in building the city, they must pay something.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to lead the team if the people's hearts are lost in the future.
At this time, they no longer felt there was anything wrong with Lord Locke placing a tortured prisoner in his camp.
"Well, you go ahead."
After waving his hand, Locke waited until the five Gascos left before turning his eyes to the knight commander of the Temple of Light.
"You, what do you want to do?"
The knight commander of the Temple of Light was so frightened by Locke's gaze that he asked tremblingly: "You just said that you would not force me to question you."
"Don't keep your word..."
Unfortunately, Locke now simply ignored his words.
In Locke's eyes, this guy is definitely the most suitable experimental subject for direct training at this stage.
Closing his eyes, Locke released his mental power and rushed toward the knight commander instantly.
Locke is now at the pinnacle of the Holy Realm, and this knight commander even reached the realm of the Holy Realm by relying on Augusta, the Lord God of Light.
Although his mental power has reached almost the level of a seventh-level magician, this level of mental power has no defense at all in front of Locke.
As if a bubble had been popped, Locke's mental power encountered no strong resistance at all.
Very easily, Locke's mental power entered the soul space of the Knight Commander of the Temple of Light.
This situation did not exceed Locke's expectations.
After all, there are not many people who can master soul attacks at the holy realm stage.
This guy is just a holy realm that was created. He may not even understand the essence of "the unity of heaven and man", let alone mobilize his mental power to carry out soul attack or defense.
"So weak..."
Shaking his head, Locke's mental power condensed into his own image in this guy's soul space, and slowly moved forward.
Every creature, when its strength reaches the holy realm, its soul power will condense into something, which is the "essence" of its soul.
As for the four major rules of magic, you need to have the corresponding "essence" to practice it.
For example, if the thing that the soul condenses is a weapon, then this person can be considered to have the qualifications to practice the rules of destruction.
If the soul is condensed into plants, it can be considered that this person has the qualifications to practice the rules of life.
What is condensed is the skeleton of a certain creature, and this person has the qualifications to practice the rules of death.
If it is a book, then this person may have the qualifications to practice the rules of destiny.
The knight commander's soul was condensed into a weak flame.
Locke slowly stepped forward, came to the center of the knight commander's soul, and stretched out his hand to the weak flame...
