System: Build My Own Territory Chapter 1257 - 335: Who Gave You the Courage (10,000 Words)_6

The rich and intense flavor hit instantly.

Ludovico downed the gin in one gulp, allowing the comforting warmth to spread through his body.

Harry did the same.

Only at this point.

Ludovico and Harry finally confirmed.

The Lexus Gin at the Riverside Rest Tavern at Fisherman’s Wharf, indeed came from Lynn’s territory!

Moreover, that envoy Gasper who entered the Knight’s Mansion late at night!

Even if Lynn’s territory is so far from Kakasong City.

Lynn had long implanted his influence and information system into Kakasong City!

Ludovico understood that although the Lord Lynn before him seemed young.

The strength of his ability and depth of his scheming were no less than anyone else!

He set down the glazed glass.

Ludovico put away his contempt and asked Lynn.

"How are you so certain that we would come to Morgan Town, to your territory?"

Lynn spoke calmly.

"Anyone facing crisis, facing the threat of death, will do everything possible to find a way to survive."

"Once they find the straw to clutch at, they will seize it without hesitation."

"Because that is everyone’s survival instinct!"

Ludovico fell silent immediately.

His mind instantly went back to what Gasper had told him.

Ludovico took a breath and asked Lynn again.

"If... I wish to collaborate with you."

"What kind of price do I need to pay to secure your military aid?"

"To shield my Towns Clan from Simo’s reckoning?"

Harry’s gaze was also fixed on Lynn, awaiting his response.

Lynn said nothing, moved his right hand to pick up a glass of half-poured gin from the table, and started tasting it.

Seeing this action, Ludovico frowned slightly, kept silent, and waited quietly.

However.

Ludovico noticed that Lynn across the table kept sipping the gin, showing no intention of putting down the glass.

Ludovico furrowed his brows tightly, his words full of displeasure as he asked.

"What do you mean by this?"

Lynn remained calm, setting down his glass and staring directly at Ludovico.

"Sir Ludovico, I am wondering..."

"Did Gasper not explain clearly the situation you are facing now?"

"Or do you believe that I must offer assistance and rescue to you, who holds the title of knight?"

Lynn’s voice suddenly grew louder.

"Who gave you the courage to address me as... you?"

"Hmm?"

Listening to Lynn’s sharp words, feeling the strong aura emanating from him.

Ludovico and Harry both couldn’t help but tremble.

There was no need for the towering guards behind Lynn to draw their swords.

Just Lynn sitting on the wooden chair alone.

Was enough to make Ludovico and Harry tense, their breaths quickening.

Only now did Ludovico and Harry remember.

The young man before them was the sole lord of the territory under their feet, of Morgan Town.

He was the ’Fire of Lorraine’ who buried Jon Zuck’s army of tens of thousands in Lorraine.

A powerful lord with a massive armored cavalry.

Lynn Blake!

Ludovico exhaled several breaths, forcefully suppressing the tension and complex emotions in his heart.

Getting up from the wooden chair, Ludovico bowed to Lynn, performing the noble etiquette.

Humble and respectful words came from Ludovico’s mouth.

"Lynn... Lord Lynn, my apologies, it was Ludovico who offended your dignity, please forgive me."

Seeing Ludovico’s actions, Harry also stood up, bowed following Ludovico’s lead.

Lynn remained seated on the wooden chair, accepting their greeting.

"Sir Ludovico, I am willing to forgive your offense!"

"Sit down."

Upon hearing Lynn’s permissive words.

The sense of tension in Ludovico and Harry eased slightly as they sat back down on the wooden chairs around the round table.

Needless to say.

At present, they were in Lynn’s territory!

Moreover, there was no one who could constrain Lynn.

If Lynn wished, he could have them killed at any moment.

They had no chance of escape!

Lynn moved his body, placing both arms on the round table.

Staring at Ludovico and Harry, whose cheeks were now beaded with sweat.

"Sir Ludovico, I think we can now enter the subject of cooperation."

Ludovico slightly raised his eyebrows, waiting for Lynn to continue.

Lynn continued speaking.

"I can collaborate with Sir Ludovico!"

"If necessary, I can even provide military aid to Sir Ludovico!"

Brightness appeared in Ludovico’s eyes.

The words and promises spoken by Gasper as an envoy.

Could not match the authenticity and authority of the words spoken by Lynn as the lord.

Lynn’s voice then took a turn, "However..."

Ludovico asked anxiously.

"Lord Lynn, however what?"

"Since Ludovico can come to Lord Lynn’s territory despite all risks, he is already prepared to pay any price!"

Lynn nodded, saying seriously.

"However, I need Sir Ludovico to unite as many free nobles, wealthy merchants, workshop masters, and elites from various fields within the city to pledge allegiance to me!"

"Moreover, I need you to unite them, to the greatest extent possible, to compete against Simo for the new leadership position in Kakasong City!"

Listening to Lynn explaining continuously.

Ludovico, who already had his brow tightly knotted, furrowed it even deeper.

Ludovico stared at the remaining half-bottle of gin on the table.

Saying nothing, as if contemplating something.

Lynn didn’t rush Ludovico, moving his right hand to pick up a glass filled by Red and took a sip.

Time passed by slowly.

Until two minutes later.

Ludovico suddenly raised his head, looking directly at Lynn opposite, and spoke.

"Naturally, Ludovico is willing to pledge allegiance to Lord Lynn."

"At the same time, Ludovico will strive to unite other free nobles and others to pledge allegiance to you."

"And as Lord Lynn says, I will do my utmost to compete with Simo for the new leadership position of Kakasong City!"

Ludovico’s voice suddenly took a turn.

"However, when faced with crises, with the prospect of war with the Church."

"Ludovico hopes that Lord Lynn will not withhold assistance and provide military aid to Ludovico!"

Lynn nodded earnestly and responded.

"Of course, Sir Ludovico."

"As long as my supporters are loyal to me, I will not betray their trust!"
