Chapter 549 - Rights and Duties (I)


Lorne hates being called a hero.

In comparison, he prefers the title of conqueror of the grassland.

Because the former smacks of devotion, the latter is more in line with his nature.

It's just that among the people in the north, everyone always likes to call those who have outstanding achievements in the war against the orcs as heroes.

Not only Hod, but when the dusty Northern Duke appeared with his army, he also called Lorne a hero.

It had been more than half a year since the last meeting.

Perhaps because he had just returned from the expedition, Lorne found that the Grand Duke of the North had aged a lot.

As far as he knew, the Grand Duke of the North was an ordinary person like those noble lords.

So if nothing else happens, it will be time for him to retire from his position as Grand Duke in another ten or twenty years.

If it were Lorn sitting in the position of the Duke of the North, the beast would definitely not work so hard on himself.

Although he took a shower and changed into clean clothes, the Grand Duke of the North who reappeared in front of him still couldn't hide the fatigue on his face.

While occupying the main seat in the lobby of Lorne Castle, Archduke Habbs was still busy working.

There were originally nearly 100,000 troops, but only more than 70,000 returned safely.

More than 20,000 humans have rested forever on the land of the orcs.

As the owner of the castle, Lorne was also fortunate to participate in this high-level meeting related to the safety of the North.

Hearing such a number, he was a little confused because he didn't know his past record.

Does this count as a victory?

But the main task was successfully completed by the Grand Duke.

On the way, Lorne was lucky enough to see the so-called red-eyed orc.

In each prison van, countless roaring guys were beating the solid iron cages like madmen.

Even though their claws were dripping with blood, they did not stop their movements.

If this was an order from the guy with the meatballs, these orcs sure have a cyborg style.

But the difference is that Lorne's reformers don't make meaningless noises, and the roars of these guys seem to be filled with pain.

Lorne was a little confused about what was going on, and wanted to ask Bishop Sophia who was accompanying the army, but unfortunately he had no chance to contact that woman.

Even after arriving at his castle, Bishop Sophia took her priest with her to rest.

She didn't even attend this important meeting.

Regarding the information about the red-eyed orcs, Lorne still relied on Hod to learn something.

When the Grand Duke of the North was listening to the report, Hod, who was sitting next to him, said: "Those red-eyed orcs are really difficult to deal with.

Most of the soldiers unfortunately died in battles with them."

Although Lorne is the master, his status is still too low.

Fortunately, he is seated at the back and can quietly exchange information with Hodder, who is also at the back.

"Are there a lot of them?

Didn't Bishop Sophia also bring priests and church knights to the battle?

Don't they have any effect on those red-eyed orcs?"

At first, everyone thought that red-eyed orcs were a disease specifically spread among orcs, but the results seemed to be a little different.

Hodder explained: "The number is not very large, but the key is that it cannot be eliminated at all.

Every time we win, , they will appear again soon.

Moreover, the holy light of the bishops could not restore these orcs to normal.

It did not seem to be a disease, but seemed like a special madness. " Neither afraid of death nor afraid of injury.

No wonder Hodder thought it was a different kind of madness.

If it were Lorne, he would unknowingly guess that the red-eyed orcs had a different kind of ability.

"Even the Holy Light can't cure it, so it should be a mutation.

But collective mutation seems unlikely.

I saw a lot of red-eyed orcs were captured this time.

Has there been any experiment on whether they can infect each other?"

Lorne was thinking about how to ask Hod for two red-eyed orcs so that Meatball could identify the authenticity, but the way the two were whispering finally caught the attention of the Grand Duke of the North.

Although he was far away in the grasslands fighting the orcs, most of the important things that happened in the North were transmitted to the Grand Duke of the North by specially trained Swift Eagles.

Lorne's occupation of the grassland is naturally considered a major event in the north, but the Grand Duke is more interested in another matter.

"Young Baron Fast, how much do you know about orcs?"

The reason why I ask this is because the Grand Duke already knows about the trickster who easily killed the great knight Marrocco.

Of course, the Grand Duke would not let go of any information related to the orcs.

While on the road, he asked his knights to carefully observe the scammers.

And even the great knights under him could vaguely sense the danger of cheating.

Even ordinary bloody orcs are no match for them, and they actually feel a sense of crisis when faced with scammers.

There is no reason why the Grand Duke did not pay attention to this.

Even after thinking that the scammer and the red-eyed orc appeared at the border of the Clark family at the same time, the Archduke had every reason to doubt the origin of the scammer.

There was just one thing that puzzled him, when the scammer came to Tallinn City.

The great knights around him had also seen this orc, but at that time they didn't think the orc was very dangerous.

How come it only took more than half a year?

Is it so easy for the orcs to advance?

Unfortunately, even the Grand Duke of the North cannot question Lorne in public.

It is his responsibility to protect the lord's private property.

Of course, if the scammers have the potential to harm the Northern Territory, then it is the duty of the Northern Territory people to eliminate it.

When the Grand Duke suddenly asked him about the orcs, Lorne immediately understood that the matter might involve cheating.

Whoever made the cheater powerful enough to kill the great knight instantly, but if Lorn were in charge, he would not let go of anything that might endanger the territory.

But fortunately, the lord's property is protected by law.

As long as it can be proven that the cheater is obedient and harmless, the Grand Duke of the North will not hold on to him.

"Your Excellency the Grand Duke, the orcs are our formidable enemies in the north.

Although I often pay attention to them, my understanding of them is definitely not as good as those of you here."

After all, Lorne is just a little baron.

The lowest status person present has not yet inherited the throne.

In addition to the knights in the family business, there are also roles such as earls.

The necessary humility is definitely indispensable.

However, if you don’t say anything, you will inevitably be suspected of deliberately evading.

So Lorne praised everyone present and continued after him: "It's just that some time ago, the orc under my command changed a little.

I guess it's a variation of blood energy, probably related to a lot of fighting.

Because when I took it everywhere to fight against orcs, it suddenly changed like that during the battle.

Why don't I let it come over and ask you all to take a look.

Maybe everyone here can see something that I didn't notice
