Master Overlord
Chapter 1
"My Lord, my Lord."
Li Hua heard someone shouting in his ear. Although he felt pain everywhere, he still tried to open his eyes.
"Wake up, wake up! Lord Arthur is awake!"
The figure in front of him shook and focused. Li Hua couldn''t see clearly. It seemed that he was a foreigner.
By the way... There was a fire, rushed in to save people, and then the liquefied gas tank exploded.
Didn''t I die? They invited foreign experts to rescue me? Should be.
"How are they? Have they all been rescued?" Arthur asked weakly.
You can''t lose face in front of foreign devils.
"More than a dozen people died, but Warcraft has been repulsed by us."
A dozen people?!
How could more than a dozen people die!
He remembered that there were only three people in the house, and he had saved two children. Was the liquefied gas tank so powerful that it blew up the building?!
Wait, it doesn''t seem right!
Warcraft, what Warcraft?
Li Hua felt that naoren was concussion. He tried to blink and finally saw the foreign doctor in front of him.
What kind of doctor is this!
The ghost guy in front of him was tall, his face was rough and crazy, his golden beard was like iron wire, and there was a long scar on his left cheek. The most divine place is that he is wearing a suit of armor!
Who is this?
Which crew?
As soon as Li Hua thought, the memory in his mind was suddenly connected - Arthur tustra, count of Lingfeng castle, sharp blade fortress, animal tide
Pictures flashed in his mind like slides.
"My lord..." seeing Li Hua''s face in a trance, he seemed to have lost his soul. The ghost guy with scar face called out with concern.
After a while, Li Hua turned to look at the Scarface man. He was really not a foreign expert. This was his bodyguard captain, Thorne Gell.
And he''s wearing it!
Li Hua looked at the other people in the room. They were all dressed up as knights. These were his vassals, who were summoned by him to fight for him against the winter tide of animals in the upper river.
It''s a little messy. Li Hua thinks he should be quiet first, think about it, and figure out what''s going on now.
"Let you worry. I''m fine. You all go out. I want to be quiet." Li Hua said politely, planning to send these people out first.
However, none of the people around him left and looked at him with dignified eyes.
Li Hua was surprised and suddenly remembered that this was not the way he used to speak.
Then he stared at the crowd with a straight face and said discontentedly, "what are you doing? Do you want to be lazy with me? Get out, get out! That beast can''t hurt me!"
Hearing the speech, these old and rough officials were relieved and walked out with a smile.
When they went out, Li Hua looked at Thorne, "Thorne, get me some water. I''m dying of thirst!"
The silver kettle arrived in his hand very quickly. When he picked up the kettle, Li Hua looked up and poured a big mouth into his mouth, ready to wash the blood foam from his mouth first.
"Poof!" Li Hua turned his head and burst out, "what kind of water is this?!"
"Sir, this is the wine you brought from the castle." Thorne looked puzzled.
"Oh... Yes," I remembered. Li Hua immediately handed the kettle to Thorne. "No more wine. Go and get me some water and remember to boil the water!"
"Yes."
Although confused, Thorne still took orders.
After a little while, Thorne brought a pot of hot water. After rinsing his mouth, Li Hua took a few mouthfuls of cow drink to relieve the drought, and his body finally recovered some strength.
"My lord..." with his head down, Thorne suddenly knelt on one knee by the bed.
Li Hua subconsciously wants to get up and help, but looking at the other party''s guilty and remorseful look, he immediately realizes his current identity.
Should I comfort him?
After thinking about it, Arthur tried to say, "it''s not your fault. You don''t have to blame yourself, and you''ve saved my life. Get up."
"But..." Thorne clenched his fist and lowered his head.
Eh, the big masters are very hypocritical.
Looking at each other''s broken shoulder pads, Li Hua organized a language and said in a straight voice: "as a knight, you have not lost your honor. The scars on your armor are the evidence! Stand up and don''t let me think you are a crying woman, sir Thorne!"
"Yes," said Thorne, squeezing his fist.
"Go out and do your duty!"
"Yes!"
Looking at the closed wooden door, Li Hua leaned against the head of the bed and breathed a sigh of relief - slavery, chivalry and honor are comparable to life.
Li Hua began to sort out his memory.
This is a fantasy world similar to the middle ages. In addition to humans, there are many strange creatures. Human beings can cultivate fighting spirit. He himself has black iron fighting strength.
But unfortunately, this fighting spirit is not the other fighting spirit. It can''t be so terrible. It''s better to call it internal power.
As for why he is such a ghost now, it''s a long story
Shanghe collar is located south of the Tungus mountains. Every winter, Warcraft, which lives in the north of the mountains, will try to rush through the sharp blade Canyon and break into the upper river.
This leads to the crisis of Shanghe collar every winter. The Lord needs to send troops to resist Warcraft and prevent Warcraft from passing through the sharp blade canyon.
As for why he lost his life even as a lord, we have to start with the betrayal and oppression of the other two families.
Many years ago, the three northernmost families of danze Kingdom, tustra, Gelin and campes, worked closely together to resist Warcraft going south every winter.
Of course, the toustra family contributes the most. After all, if Warcraft passes through the canyon, the first victim is shangheling.
At that time, the three families were close comrades in arms and close allies, and there were marriages between families from time to time.
This relationship lasted for many years until the iron ore was found in the upper river collar. The tustra family earned a lot of gold coins from it, and began to break slowly after building a fortress in the sharp blade canyon.
At the beginning, the two families of Gelin and campes only reduced the number of troops and ignored them negatively, but gradually the two families stopped sending troops to fight under various pretexts, and finally simply did not want the connection, regardless of the animal tide in winter every year.
The tutela family was very angry about the two families'' behavior of breaking their vows and abandoning their glory, and sent people to negotiate repeatedly.
But the two families ate the weight, made an iron heart and made a clear attitude, that is, they quit! Although angry, the tustra family can only bear the burden of three families to resist the annual animal tide alone.
At first, with the newly built fortress and accumulated heritage, the tustra family was able to carry it, and stubbornly blocked the annual animal tide on their own.
However, the war with Warcraft is a loss making business. Even if it is defeated, there will be no booty, and Warcraft is even less likely to compensate Lingfeng castle for the war losses.
Year after year in winter, lingfengbao''s family wealth was consumed little by little. At this moment, green and campes began to intervene in the trade of Shanghe collar.
Whether it''s slaves or war materials, Lingfeng Castle costs a high price to get, and it often ends up empty!
Gold won''t resist Warcraft.
Without a large number of slaves and war materials, the tutela family will soon be beyond its power. Once the winter is long, the territory will be poisoned by Warcraft.
The worst thing is, under the threat of Warcraft, the people in the territory began to turn into refugees and fled the river a little
With the resistance and feeding of Shanghe collar, only a few Warcraft broke into the other two territories. The two only need to send troops to encircle and suppress them, or directly drive them back to Shanghe collar.
Don''t be too easy!
Just when shangheling was about to become a wasteland, the other two miraculously handed over olive branches and expressed their willingness to send troops to support.
There is no free lunch, and the tustra family will not be naive to think that the two families will pick up the responsibilities that have been abandoned.
In fact, the two had already put on a pair of trousers and had the idea of iron mining.
It''s OK to send troops, but the two families asked to buy the management right of the iron mine at the price of 10000 gold coins a year as a condition for their support to the tustra family.
This is a robbery by fire. Everyone knows it.
But survival or destruction has never been a problem worth thinking about for the nobility.
Moreover, the price of 10000 gold coins a year is not too bad. Compared with selling to merchants, it is only a few thousand gold coins less.
Unfortunately, all this is just the beginning.
In the following years, green and campes always asked them to send troops at Lingfeng castle to reduce their gold coins. If they didn''t agree, they refused to send troops.
The two families are like lingchi, encroaching on the interests of the tustra family again and again.
The tustra family asked for the convening of the aristocratic court several times and asked the Duke of kewilt to rule that the two families violated the agreement, but the Duke actually believed the nonsense that green and campes had suffered heavy losses due to the dispatch of troops and support, and finally ruled that the practices of the two families were reasonable!
That''s bullshit!
If the noble court is useless, tear up the agreement directly. Arthur''s father is an example.
The result was a tragic death on the wall of the fortress.
Later, Arthur inherited Lingfeng castle. Three years ago, the price of selling iron mines had dropped to 3000 gold coins a year!
Three years ago, Arthur was only a 13-year-old child. He had to bow his head in the face of the oppression of the two families.
Until this winter, the heavy snow in the north of the mountain first fell for half a month. The land outside the Great Wall was white, and Warcraft began to attack the fortress one after another.
Arthur repeatedly asked green and campes to fulfill their contracts and send troops to support immediately.
But the envoys of the two families didn''t even bother to find an excuse. They told Arthur in high spirits in the castle that they wanted them to send troops, so the price of buying iron mines would be reduced to 500 gold coins a year!
Five hundred gold coins, this is an iron ore mountain!
And the other party is not a negotiation, but a sentence!
It''s a naked humiliation!
Where could young Arthur endure such humiliation, put on his armor, summoned vassals, recruited a large number of serfs and civilians, and led his troops to resist Warcraft in person regardless of the decision to dissuade.
After three years of hard training, Arthur had the fighting strength of black iron. He believed that he would defeat those animals.
Unfortunately, Arthur soon followed his father''s footsteps.
"Alas..." Li Hua sighed.
It''s not his predecessor''s impulse. It''s just that Gelin and campes are too cruel. They don''t care about their lips and teeth. They simply regard the tustra family as a watchdog.
"You are a hundred dead and completely free."
Looking at the roof, Li Hua was distracted and confused. After a while, he sighed heavily, stood up and hung his sword around his waist.
"OK, from now on, I''ll be Arthur tustra!"
