MTL - Bloodline Lord of War-Chapter 119 keep playing!

  Chapter 119 Continue to fight!

   Still on the bank of the Raging River, Robin received Knight Helen.

  Robin and Helen sat at opposite ends of the white table. Behind Robin stood the tall and burly Simon, and behind Helen stood two imposing knights.

  As the landlord, Robin first poured a cup of herbal tea for Helen and himself. Because he just won the battle, the lord is also in a good mood, with a happy smile on his face.

   "This time, do you have any information to tell me?" Robin knew that Helen must have come with a mission, so he asked first.

  Helen made a gesture, and the two knights behind him immediately brought up a thick, large wooden box and placed it on the table in front of Robin with a bang, looking very heavy.

   "What is this?" Robin stared at the big wooden box and asked curiously.

   "Robin, you fought this battle very well, and His Excellency also admired you very much. This is a reward from His Excellency." Helen smiled.

  The knight next to him immediately opened the wooden box, and saw that the box was full of gold coins!

   "There are a total of two thousand gold coins here." Helen said.

   Robin, a country bumpkin, has never seen so many gold coins before, and his eyes straightened immediately. He took out a gold coin from the box and put it in front of his eyes for a closer look. The king's head is printed on the gold coin, but he is more loved than the king. How many people are smashed to pieces for these golden treasures.

   "Thank you, Lord Duke, may the Holy Light shine on him." Robin couldn't help showing a joyful expression, and hurriedly closed the lid of the box, as if he was afraid that the gold coins would run away on his own. .

   "Are you here to give me gold this time?" Robin asked again, he always felt that Helen's visit would not be so simple.

The expression of the female knight suddenly became heavy, she hesitated, and said to Robin: "There is indeed one very important thing, in fact, the Duke has already negotiated peace with the Golden Rose, the war can end, the Duke asks you, don't Let's attack Wind Castle again."

  After Helen finished speaking, Robin was taken aback for a moment, and the smile froze on his face: "Stop beating?"

  The expression on Robin's face darkened a little bit, and he was suddenly a little annoyed.

Duke Xueying negotiated peace with Golden Rose in private and decided to end the war on his own. He didn't even say hello in advance, and only came to give orders to Robin after the matter was over. Duke Xueying did this without considering Robin's feelings and The interests of Raging Waves City.

  When he thought that when he was happily preparing for the expedition, Duke Snow Eagle was negotiating peace with Golden Rose behind his back, Robin couldn't help but feel angry.

  But immediately, Robin calmed down again, because he knew in his heart that this was a game of power, and with the power that Duke Snow Eagle possessed, he could naturally disregard Robin's feelings. Robin understands the rules of the game. Now that something has happened, instead of complaining and sulking, it is better to think about the next step as soon as possible.

Robin's performance was seen by Helen. Before the female knight set off from Silver Frost City, she was ready to face Robin's fury, but Robin's actual reaction surprised her. When Robin came out, he was a little angry at first, but soon the anger disappeared from him. Helen couldn't help but marvel at this terrible self-control.

  Although the lord did not lose his temper, the powder keg behind him was on fire.

  Simon's two thick eyebrows like watermelon knives frowned vigorously, staring at a pair of bull's eyes, and shouted loudly: "What? The preparations are all ready, if you don't want to fight, you won't fight?"

   Once Simon gets angry, he looks like a rabid male bear, with a big mouth that looks like he wants to eat people, and just staring with his eyes can scare people to the ground. The tyrannical power erupting from him swept towards Helen and her guards like a gust of wind.

  Facing the manic Iron Bear Warrior, Helen immediately tensed her body instinctively, and the two knights behind her also pressed their hands on the hilts of their swords vigilantly, ready to draw their swords at any time.

   "Shut up, Simon." Robin looked back at Simon, frowning dissatisfied.

   "Yes, my lord, I shut up." Seeing that his lord seemed a little angry, Simon shrank his neck in fear, and stood quietly behind Robin.

Seeing this terrifying highlander calm down again, Helen couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief. At the same time, she felt very surprised. Highlanders have always been known for their rebelliousness. The stronger the highlander, the harder it is to discipline him. It's not a good stubble, but Robin was able to tame him.

  Robin was silent for a moment, then suddenly picked up the teacup on the table, raised his head and drank it down. Then, while pouring himself another cup of herbal tea, he asked, "So, the Golden Rose family must have spent a lot of capital in order to keep Baron."

  Helen sighed softly, and said, "I'm sorry Robin, I know you are preparing to attack Wind Castle, and I made you busy."

  Robin smiled and said calmly: "It's okay, it's not a waste of time, because I still want to continue to attack the Wind Castle."

  Helen showed a troubled expression: "Why do you have to keep fighting?"

Robin began to explain: "Helen, I can understand the Lord Duke's thoughts very well. Baron is just a small pioneer lord, and he is not qualified to pose a threat to the Snow Eagle family, so the Lord Duke can let him go, as long as the golden rose is in The momentum of expansion on the wasteland has been curbed, so the Duke has accomplished the set goal, as for the rest, we can talk about it later."

   Then, Robin changed the topic.

"However, Baron's threat to me is real. He can't threaten you Snow Eagle, but he can threaten me. The hatred between our two families has been resolved, and there is no way to reconcile. In order to protect our own Safety, I must get rid of Baron. If this battle is not fought now, it will definitely be fought in the future. Who can say what will happen later? His Excellency chose to negotiate a peace from the perspective of his interests, but from my perspective From the perspective of interests, we must continue to fight.”

"Balong has already posed a major security threat to Raging Waves City. I can't just sit idly by. Right now, Baron's main force has been wiped out in sevens and eighties. Rose is rich and powerful, and it won't be long before Baron recovers, and it may be even more difficult to deal with."

   "Rather than betting on the future, it's better to grasp the present. I have such a personality." Robin said these words with a calm expression and a faint smile on his face. After he finished speaking, Helen suddenly had nothing to say.

  Because of this reason, Helen also understood that if she had become the lord of Raging Waves City, she would also choose to take this opportunity to attack Wind Castle head-on. Even if the Wind Castle cannot be wiped out in one fell swoop, the vitality of the Wind Castle must be severely damaged, so that it cannot pose a threat to Raging Waves City for at least ten years.

  Helen sighed deeply again. In fact, she didn't quite agree with the Duke's actions, but as a member of the Snow Eagle family, she must obey the Duke's orders.

   "Robin, the Duke said that if you insist on continuing to fight, we will not provide you with any help. You have to fight this war by yourself."

  Robin did not retreat, and immediately replied: "Helen, please also tell the Duke, just say, I will win."

   "Well, since this is the case, I don't have anything to say." Helen stood up as she spoke, and wanted to say goodbye, and then told the knights behind her. "Take the gold coins away."

   Upon hearing this, Robin quickly slapped the wooden box: "Wait! Didn't the gold coin be given to me? Why do you want to take it away?"

  Helen was also a little confused: "Didn't you disagree with the truce?"

  The lord is very rascal: "I don't agree with the truce, but I still want the gold coins."

  Helen was taken aback for a moment, and then she couldn't help laughing at Robin's rascally appearance: "Baron Robin, you refuse to stop the war and ask for gold coins. You're embarrassing me."

   "I don't care. Anyway, the gold coin has entered my pocket, so don't even try to take it out again." Robin turned back and shouted at Simon. "Simon, put away the gold coins."

  Warrior Iron Bear immediately opened his mouth wide open, giggling, stepped forward and hugged the heavy wooden box tightly in his arms, and at the same time watched Helen and the other three vigilantly, as if he was afraid that the other party would come up and **** it.

  Helen shook her head helplessly. She also knew that Robin was desperate for money. Asking him for money would be harder than pulling a tooth out of a tiger's mouth. And this time the peace talks with Golden Rose left Robin aside. Although it wasn't Helen's idea, she was also a member of the Snow Eagle family, and the always upright female knight felt somewhat guilty towards Robin.

  Helen has always strictly demanded herself with the virtues of a knight. In her opinion, it is immoral to betray her allies, and she actually feels very uncomfortable.

   "Okay, okay, this money was originally said by the Duke to reward you, so I will give it to you." Helen sighed, and even broke the pot.

  Seeing that the gold coins would not come back, Helen thought of those craftsmen who came up to send them. "By the way, the craftsmen who were sent to you last time should let them go back?"

   "No, no, this is even worse." Robin waved his hand quickly. "The smelting workshop on my side hasn't been finished yet, and the foundation has just been laid. This matter is one thing at a time. Assisting me in building the workshop is what the duke promised last time."

   "How long has it been since you just laid a foundation?" Helen said in surprise, with an expression of "Are you kidding me?"

   "Isn't this a war? I was preoccupied with dealing with Baron a few days ago, and this matter has been delayed." Robin spread his hands and said, "I am also very helpless."

  Helen was completely speechless by Robin. If the gold coins are not returned, the people will not be returned. This abominable Baron Robin is simply a greedy dragon, he can only get in and out!

There is nothing an upright female knight can do when she encounters a rascal like Robin, and because she feels ashamed of Robin, she simply doesn't pursue it and says, "Okay, those craftsmen will stay with you for a while longer. Day. But once the workshop is completed, you must send all the people back."

   "I know, don't worry." Robin smiled like a cunning fox.

  Although the conversation between the two parties was not pleasant, but for the sake of the old friendship and the gold coins, Robin still sent Helen to the gate of Raging Waves City.

  Before parting, Helen was riding on the horse. She looked down at Robin's face and said apologetically, "Sorry, Robin, I wanted to help you, but..."

  Robin smiled open-mindedly: "I understand, there is nothing to be sorry about. You are for Xueying, and I am for my people. We just have different positions. I appreciate your kindness."

Helen thought for a while, and then said to Robin: "One thing you can rest assured, although we have negotiated with Golden Rose, the previous agreement signed by the two companies is still valid, and neither of us can directly send troops to interfere in the battle in the wasteland, so you temporarily There is no need to worry about Jin Meigui sending troops directly."

  Robin nodded vigorously, and said gratefully: "I see."

  Finally, Helen said goodbye to Robin sincerely: "Robin, I'm leaving, take care."

  The female knight left with her knights. Robin stood in front of the gate of Raging Waves City, watching Helen's back going away, the smile on his face disappeared little by little, and his expression immediately became serious.

   Next, he will deal with Windcastle alone.

  …

  【Silver Frost City】

  In the back garden of Snow Eagle Castle, Helen told Duke Augustus about Robin's answer.

  Augus had just practiced the sword for a while, and he was sweating profusely. He handed the sword to the attendant next to him, took the towel from the maid, and wiped the sweat off his face. After hearing Helen's report, he couldn't help but pause when he wiped his face.

   "I didn't expect you to be right. This Baron Robin really wants to continue fighting." Augustus put down the towel, with a surprised expression on his face.

  He felt a little conflicted at the moment. On the one hand, he was dissatisfied with Robin's disobedience of his orders, and on the other hand, he felt that Robin was courageous and a man, so he admired Robin even more in his heart.

   "The Wind Castle is a tough bone. Baron Robin is very brave, but he can't take it down." Augustus said firmly.

   "My lord, what shall we do next? Do we really want to leave Robin alone?" Helen asked worriedly, she wanted to save Robin in her heart.

  Augus thought for a while, and then said: "Robin is a capable person, and he is still useful to us. As long as he is there, Golden Rose will not be able to control the western wilderness. Therefore, we cannot let him die."

"But then again, if a child is disobedient, you have to let him have a longer memory. For young people, it's normal to be a little angry. Let Jin Meigui teach him a lesson, and let him continue to make trouble. No, if we make another move, this kid will be more obedient after a stumble."

   "I understand, Your Excellency the Duke." Knight Helen lowered her head with a gloomy expression.

These power tactics of Augustus are difficult for the light-sensitive and upright female knight to accept, but she is not a three-year-old child, and she also understands in her heart that chivalry alone is not enough to make the family prosper , Sometimes it is necessary to use some disgraceful means.

Augustus looked at Helen, his pair of deep brown eyes seemed to see through Helen, and he warned: "Helen, I know, you girl has upheld justice since she was a child, and you can manage the family, but you can't just have an upright heart. Sooner or later, I will follow our great ancestors and turn into a handful of soil in the northern border, and at that time, you will be the leader of the entire family, and I have high hopes for you."

   After finishing speaking, Augustus stretched out his hand and grabbed Helen's shoulder vigorously.

  Helen felt that Augustus's hand seemed to be heavier than a mountain, which was a heavy responsibility. She immediately knelt down on one knee and said loudly in a firm tone: "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down!"

  …

   On Robin's side, he began to make final preparations, the army is about to launch an attack on Wind Castle!
