Riding and Slashing: The Dragon and the Lord

Chapter 77: Another visit from Count Harlan

Views:

Well, very good, very good, De Lassel was now glad that he had not killed him before.

This guy is like an indestructible cockroach, he will always come back. But he has a lot of experience, and I got 10,000 dinars from him last time. He is really a fat lamb~

If we can continue to absorb his experience and money, it will be just a matter of time before we dominate the continent of Calradia.

At this time, A'mo was lying on the ground dying, and his giant eagle Xiaomu was almost suffocated.

"Ryan, let the eagle go first."

“Oh.”

No, Baron, I want eagle meat.

"Be good, let it go first. I promise you, there will be steak and milk when we get back."

Hearing this, Ryan let go of Xiaom under his feet. Xiaom was also sensible and did not continue to counterattack, but just gasped heavily.

De La Ser slowly walked to Amer's side and said, "Are you here alone?"

"If eagles don't count as people, yes."

"For 40,000 dinars?"

“People die for money, birds die for food, that’s right.”

De La Serre smiled and shook his head, then asked: "If I let you go again, you will come back to kill me, right?"

"Never give up until you achieve your goal. This is the true nature of a man, that's right."

"You're right not to say anything, are you unable to speak?"

“That’s a good word, all right.”

"Well... A'mo, if you want me to let you go, that's fine. But you have to give me something. Just like last time, I got 10,000 dinars. What about this time?"

Amer was speechless for a moment, and after a moment, he slowly replied: "Baron, I have no money, why don't you kill me."

"Why would I kill a 250... Oh no, you little cutie, I think you are a warrior, you are right, you will never give up until you achieve your goal, this is the nature of a man. I don't intend to kill you, I am a reasonable person, you can give me other valuables."

"Hmm... Baron, let me put it this way. I see that your hands get hurt every time you defend against an attack. Perhaps this arm armor can help."

System prompt: An item is missing from the equipment bar - ordinary leather gloves.

System prompt: Equipment bar obtained

Items - Special armor, Giant Eagle Gauntlets.

This pair of arm armor is shiny and bright. It is stronger and more durable than ordinary arm armor, but relatively light. It is obviously a good treasure at first glance.

And the most valuable thing about it is that between the fingers and wrists, this arm armor has been specially reinforced to reduce the shock and pressure caused by the collision of weapons.

In this way, even if you encounter an opponent who is stronger than you, you will not be unable to resist in a short time.

The baron looked satisfied and said quickly, "Well... you can go now. If you can catch me next time, I will give you 80,000 dinars."

"Really?!" When Ah Mo heard this number, his eyes lit up, as if his injuries had healed by half...

"It's absolutely true. You can't catch me anyway... Oh, no, no, what I meant is, I hope you can catch me next time, um, yes, that's it."

Then, De Lassel politely helped him up and returned his warhorse and the giant eagle Xiaomu to him.

Before leaving, De La Ser did not forget to remind him: "Next time you come to kill me, you have to wear a giant eagle suit or a giant eagle helmet, don't you think? This way you will be more likely to succeed..."

System prompt: Good guy, you have already thought about the equipment you want to get next time, right

Go away, don't talk too much. You are the system, just do your own job well and don't interrupt all the time, De Lassel joked with the system.

"Okay, Baron, goodbye." A'mo held the injured Xiao Mu in his arms, rode away on horseback, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Okay, I'm going back to the Abyss Mountains." Seeing that things had calmed down, Safiya turned around and pretended to leave, deliberately leaving very slowly to give the baron a chance to keep her.

Everyone can see that this is an opportunity to keep her, but the Baron starts to act like a straight man...

"This... Safiya, this way back is not easy to go, it's so dangerous, how about I go back with you, send you back to the mountains, and I will go back to Uxhall alone."

"Oh..." After hearing this amazing operation, Ryan fainted on the spot.

You are such a hopeless bastard...

"You... you! You are so stupid! Forget it, I will accompany Lei first.

Well, let’s go back and eat, and we’ll talk after we’ve eaten…” Safiya was frantically trying to comfort the baron, but she could only bite the bullet and find a way out.

"You're going to eat with it? Then what can you eat? Lao Ao and his friends make ten steaks, and Ryan can eat all ten of them. Do you believe it? I'd better send you away..."

“Bang!”

Safiya could no longer bear it, so she slapped the baron in the face and rode back to Uxhall without saying a word, while Ryan followed slowly behind.

De La Serre covered his face and felt wronged. He was very confused. Why was it that being obedient and listening to her was not right? Oh...

System prompt: You... Never mind, please continue the game.

As a result, everyone returned to the town safely. When the baron passed the town gate again, he calmed down and said to the guard:

"I'm letting your little brother go. Don't be afraid. Just continue to stand guard."

"Yes, my honorable master." The guard nodded respectfully, feeling relieved.

It was getting dark now. De Lassel ordered Old Ao's family to cook as soon as possible, and told them to prepare Ryan's favorite steak and milk. After all, it was thanks to them that he was saved from death today.

During the dinner, Safiya said: "Baron, I hope you will not break your promise this time. Capture Nayan Tulu and avenge Owens and other dead warriors."

"Don't worry, I definitely will. Thank you for forgiving me and giving me another chance." De La Serre replied.

"I didn't say I forgive you. I will only forgive you once you catch him."

"No problem. I'll catch him once the truce between the kingdoms is over."

While he was eating, a guard suddenly came running over and reported: "My distinguished master, Earl Harlan is leading a team to look for you and is waiting outside the town gate."

"Hmm? What is he doing here? Well, I was looking for him. I'll go pick him up." After saying that, De La Ser got up and rushed to the town gate with the guards...

A moment later, the two met again.

"Well, Count De La Serre, it's been a long time since we last met. I missed you very much. I heard that you voted for me for the ruling rights of Duckburg and Xike Village. I am very grateful. And I also remember the last time you stayed behind to delay the Valkyrie!"
