Lord of Rot

Chapter 326 Extraordinary people are easy to conquer (page 12)

"Leard?"

Li Qi was stunned.

His son has the same name as his father?

Taboo is a part of Chinese culture rooted in Li Qi's memory, not to mention that father and son have the same name, even if they have the same word.

But here, it is an honor to give a child the name of an elder.

What Mrs. Jie Lin said about Lild Vodu was completely an excuse. An old family like this with hundreds of years of heritage would become stronger and stronger as long as they didn't stand on the wrong side and could survive war after war.

On the other hand, Porcupine Baron Leard Clarence, who went from being the son of a blacksmith to a baron of a territory, was truly brilliant.

Therefore, it is a tacit secret between the two of them as to who the child's name "Lear" comes from.

"Have a good rest and I'll ask someone to help Erin deal with the aftermath."

Li Qi lowered his head and kissed Mrs. Jie Lin's forehead, then lowered his head and gently touched the sleeping little guy's forehead, then turned and left.

There were too many things to deal with, and he had to be there.

Mrs. Jie Lin looked at Li Qi's leaving figure and felt relieved.

She had no relationship with Li Qi. That night was the excitement and madness of a desperate situation, and it was also the best way to protect herself after she and her sister Yilin discussed it.

I thought it would be good to maintain a certain friendly relationship with the Porcupine Baron, but I didn't expect that it would actually turn him into a powerful ally.

She turned her head and looked at the sleeping little guy beside her, her eyes full of doting.

……

Li Qi came to the meeting hall of Longship Castle, where his 10 noble knights were having a heated discussion.

Erin occasionally said a few words, but as for the little nobles in the water stream, they all shrank their necks and pretended to be ostriches, and no one dared to speak.

"Sir!" After seeing Li Qi's arrival, the scene suddenly became quiet.

A quickly handwritten post-war statistical table was handed to Li Qi.

After working with him for a long time, these people all know that it is best to use summarized statistical tables when reporting work, which can save time.

In this battle, there were zero casualties among the Porcupine soldiers.

There were only a hundred people left in Longship Castle, and there were heavy casualties.

A total of 641 monkey soldiers were captured.

830 sets of weapons, armor, shields and other equipment were seized, and there were more than 300 pieces that could not be assembled into complete sets.

Li Qi could not take these captives back to Iron Valley, so they stayed in Shuijian and were transformed into slaves. As for what Mrs. Jie Lin planned to do with them, that was beyond Li Qi's control.

He will only provide a certain amount of help.

A maid came quickly with a letter in her hand.

"What's wrong?" Erin asked.

The maid glanced at Li Qi subconsciously, and then said: "It's a letter from Roaring Fort."

Yilin took the letter, opened it, looked at it, and handed it to Li Qi.

None of the nobles present dared to express their dissatisfaction, and even thought this was normal.

Li Qi lowered his head to read the letter.

When Longship Castle was besieged before, Lady Jielin, who was helpless, took the initiative to ask the Duke for help. Losing the castle was better than losing her life.

The letter has just been sent back now.

"Sent a mediator? Persuaded the monkey to go back first?" Li Qi found it very interesting.

He looked at Yilin, whose face looked very ugly at this time.

He was already under siege in the city, but the Duke only said that he would send someone to mediate.

In other words, the Duke didn't want to care much.

But the development of the situation was different from what everyone expected. Not only was the Longship Castle not breached, but the monkey soldiers died and the prisoners were captured.

Even if the people sent wanted to mediate, they probably wouldn't be able to find anyone to talk to.

"I'm going to interrogate the prisoner." Li Qi gave the letter to Yi Lin.

The nobles under him stayed behind to continue arguing with Yilin and others. Li Qi did not care about some small interests, but his subordinates needed them and he could not be generous to others.

Everyone has a share in this victory, and the distribution of the trophies should not be less.

Walking all the way to the dungeon of Longship Castle, Li Qi specially let Guy escape from the secret room used to create dead bodies and wights. There were piles of coffins. Guy and Rabbit were still alive and kicking, but their injuries looked too scary, and they didn't care. Convenient to appear again.

Li Qi controlled two dead corpses and let them perform simple treatments on each other.

Guy cracked the rabbit's ribs, pulled the chest open, and forcefully pulled out the bones that penetrated the body.

"Is there any need for treatment?" Li Qi looked at the bleeding corpse. The broken ribs needed to be repaired, and the sutures also required gold, which cost at least fifty gold days.

He won't be able to earn so many golden days after this battle.

Guy's situation is not much better. Repairing the bodies of two ghouls may cost hundreds of gold days.

Li Qi looked at the other corpses.

Including the half-remaining corpse of a strong man who was blown up by artillery.

The 'woman' who was cut in half by Li Qi's sword had already been stripped naked, and she was a real man.

"There is actually someone more girly than Guy."

There are also the corpses of a pair of twins. They were also seriously injured, but the cost will not be higher than 20 gold days, which is still within the acceptable range of Li Qi.

"But I don't have that many rare items in my hands anymore, and I don't have extraordinary potions."

After Li Qi briefly inspected the corpse, he used needle and thread to sew up the wounds on the corpse. Although he didn't need to do these things, he still needed to use his mental power to control the corpse to do it himself, which was no different from what he did himself.

The corpse can be kept fresh forever in a magic preservative, and he can make a wight when he obtains another rare item.

"I haven't been to the black market for a while, and there is still the Round Table."

Rare items can be obtained in both places.

However, Li Qi wanted to go to the Round Table more than the black market. The black market was just for the self-entertainment of some nobles.

Compared to the roundtable gathering of extraordinary people, it is easier to get good things.

After leaving the secret room, Li Qi went to the real dungeon, where the two extraordinary mercenaries who surrendered were imprisoned.

"Sir!" Trevor saw Li Qi coming and greeted him proactively.

Li Qi nodded slightly: "Well done."

Trevor successfully captured an extraordinary person, which was considered a great achievement.

"This is the information for the preliminary interrogation." Trevor handed the two pieces of information to Li Qi.

In Li Qi's territory, the cost of making paper is very low, and it has become an unwritten rule that all things handed in must be sorted first and then handed in.

With this information, Li Qi can save a lot of time.

He flipped through the information and then looked at the thin man who was obediently staying behind the cell.

The skin is very white, and the overall feeling is rather eerie.

"Your name is Allen?"

"Yes sir" Alan replied.

Li Qi continued to look down and raised his eyebrows slightly: "A person from Wangdu?"

A serious city dweller.

"I grew up in Stinky Rat Alley," Allen took the initiative to explain in order to avoid being misunderstood by Li Qi: "It is the poorest place in the royal capital. Whenever someone is stolen, there will be golden bear soldiers to arrest the person for the crime."
