System: Build My Own Territory Chapter 1235 - 332: Disrespect Toward God (10K)_2

These names are the soldiers who died in the territory, or the residents who previously died for the sake of the territory!

In Lynn’s view, once someone dies, they completely disappear from this world.

Even if their names are carved beneath the Lord Statue, it still cannot change the outcome of death!

However.

It can give spiritual comfort to the families of the deceased.

It is also a way of telling all the residents living in the territory.

The territory will forever remember the warriors who contributed to it, even to the point of offering up their lives!

After observing for a short while.

Lynn walked over to a bench under the nearby shade of a tree and sat down.

Red, who was following beside Lynn, suddenly spoke up in reminder.

"Sir, there is a squad of cavalry galloping this way."

Hearing this, Lynn’s gaze shifted toward the outside of the Lord’s Square.

Just as Red had said.

Under the bright sunlight, a cavalry squad was galloping toward the Lord’s Square.

Lynn’s mind stirred; he opened the [Holographic Map] to check.

In an instant.

The galloping cavalry squad entered Lynn’s field of vision.

This cavalry squad only had five people, but all of them were wearing Standard Plate Armor with Iron Helmets.

On the high, protruding and sturdy Chest Armor, there was also a Cross Badge emblem.

The burly man riding at the very front of the cavalry squad was none other than Samuel, whom Lynn had met twice before!

Confirming the identity of the cavalry squad, Lynn’s face remained calm as he closed the [Holographic Map].

Samuel’s arrival was, of course, to collect the Tithing from his territory!

However.

It was already September 2nd, and only now had Samuel brought the Church Guard here...

Obviously.

He had been delayed because the Raven Organization’s killer attempted to assassinate Bishop Semo!

Under Lynn’s distant, watching gaze.

Samuel, mounted on his Warhorse, drew ever closer with four Church Guards in tow.

The pounding of the warhorses’ hooves grew clearer.

Until a few minutes later.

Samuel and the four Church Guards entered the Lord’s Square.

A series of reining ’whoa’ sounds came from their mouths.

Pulling the warhorses to a halt, Samuel turned his gaze.

When he saw the familiar figure sitting on the bench in the distance.

Samuel nimbly leaped down from the saddle, handed the reins in his hand to the Guard behind him, and strode forward.

Under the curious and puzzled looks of the residents in the Lord’s Square.

Samuel came before Lynn, bent slightly at the waist in salute, and spoke.

"Samuel pays his respects to Lord Lynn."

"Coming without warning, I beg the Lord’s forgiveness."

Lynn gave a faint smile and said.

"Captain Samuel, there’s no need for such formality."

"Sit and rest for a moment?"

Seeing Lord Lynn shift his body to make room on the bench, Samuel’s brows lifted slightly.

As a Lord, Lynn was inviting him to sit side by side?

Samuel hesitated for a few seconds, then said respectfully.

"Thank you, Lord, but Samuel can remain standing."

Lynn nodded, moved his body back, and sat alone in the middle of the bench.

He leaned back, resting against the bench’s backrest.

Lynn stared directly at Samuel opposite him and said.

"Still, for Captain Samuel to come only now, I almost thought Bishop Semo had shown leniency and decided I didn’t need to pay taxes..."

Samuel bent his waist slightly and explained.

"Lord, you misunderstand."

"Mainly, some things happened in Kakasong City, so Samuel could only postpone the time to come to the Lord’s territory..."

Lynn’s brows lifted slightly, and he asked.

"Some things?"

Samuel wanted to brush past this topic.

But when he thought of the Gold Pounds Lord Lynn had previously given him.

And Lynn’s intelligence network in Kakasong City.

There was a very high chance that the Lord before him already knew what had happened in Kakasong City.

If he tried to conceal or gloss over it from Lord Lynn...

It might instead arouse Lord Lynn’s displeasure and suspicion.

To the point that, in the end, Lord Lynn might very well stop giving him Gold Pounds!

Samuel hesitated for a few seconds and finally spoke.

"Lord, yes, some things!"

"Perhaps the Lord already knows what it is that Samuel refers to..."

"In the early hours of September 1st, Bishop Semo suffered an assassination attempt."

"And it was carried out by a killer from the Raven Organization!"

"The killers within the Raven Organization are not directly subordinate to the Raven Organization under unified management."

"As long as they can pass the Raven Organization’s assessment, these killers can be called ’Ravens’."

"They can use the Raven Organization’s special intelligence system to take on various assassination tasks."

"Of course, only if the assassination succeeds can a Raven Killer receive the commission fee."

Seeing that Lord Lynn remained silent, Samuel continued.

"The Raven Killer who attempted to assassinate Bishop Semo was very strong..."

"More precisely, rather bizarre!"

"Although in the end the Raven Killer failed the assassination, and in battle with me was about to be defeated—just as I was about to cut him down."

"The Raven Killer turned into a flock of black ravens and scattered away through the Church’s upper windows..."

Listening to Samuel’s words, Lynn’s brows rose slightly.

Turned into a flock of black ravens and scattered?

What a powerful Extraordinary Ability!

Not only Lynn.

Red, standing beside Lynn, also had a trace of astonishment in his eyes.

However.

Red said nothing, merely committing Samuel’s words to memory.

Lynn suddenly thought of something and asked Samuel.

"Then Bishop Semo..."

Samuel bent slightly in response.

"Lord, Bishop Semo is very strong and furthermore enjoys the God’s protection."

"Naturally, he would not be harmed by these rats from the sewers!"
