Chapter 210: Desolation and Prosperity



The Patton family is unfortunate.

Because during this period of time, the Patton family sent away many important figures.

Babana, Gandhar.

Xi Suo, Rufen.

Baron Barton The Barton family has become extremely weak, and will face more and more difficulties in the turbulent years to come. But the Barton family is also lucky because they have Naz and Wilson.

Powerful knights like Thor and Pompey can help protect the Patton family.

What's more terrifying is that Sol, Pompeii has become a great knight.

Unfortunately, Thor, now that Pompey has become a great knight, his status is comparable to that of a baron, and perhaps the Pompey family will leave the Patton family because of this.

Now, in Future Sol, Pompeii's protection of the Barton family is only out of friendship.

No matter what, the Patton family incident will gradually come to an end.

In the official residence of the Pompeii family in Kaiyue City, Old Sol was talking with Naz and Wilson in the study. The sun was very bright at the moment, and it was warm on people.

Old Sol leaned against the window, letting his cheek embrace the sunlight. Natsu Wilson sat on a chair and said to Old Sol, "According to the interrogation results, Lucy Barton did not murder the Baron. But Lucy Barton murdered Gandalf and his son, and the one who did it was Cecia Gandalf."

"It's not unusual for two young sons who both want to inherit the family to be in collusion with each other. I just regret that Babana didn't die on the battlefield, but died at the hands of his own brother."

A hint of sadness appeared on old Thor's face.

"So the people who killed the baron and his wife were from the New Party?" Old Thor asked, remembering what Xi Suo and Rufen said before they died.

"Not sure, but the possibility of a new party is very high." Naz, Wilson shook his head and said.

There was a silence that followed, because Natsu was not a very communicative person and he was always gloomy.

"Now many of the guardian families have been purged, and the remaining knights are not enough to form an effective military force. Baron Philip plans to recruit guard knights from the vassal knight families, and you will be the knight commander."

Natsu, Wilson was silent for a long time and then said.

Just like when Luther recruited members of six families to serve as guard knights for the expansion of the Pompeii family.

Among the twenty or thirty vassal states of the Barton family, many family members had no future and had to become mercenaries or bodyguards for others.

Natsu, Wilson plans to recruit these people back to form a new guard force for the Patton family.

As for Baron Philip, he is really mediocre and has no ability to preside over the affairs of the territory in the short term.

"You be the knight commander." Old Thor shook his head and said.

Natsu, Wilson felt the burden on his shoulders become much heavier, he asked in a deep voice: "What are you going to do? Go to the capital and get the title?"

The king probably has no intention of conferring another title on a nobleman.

Then the only way out is to go to the royal capital, seek refuge with the king, and become a court noble.

It is impossible for the Pompeii family to cling to the family of knight lords after producing a great knight.

If it were Natsu, Wilson would also make the same choice, so he understands old Thor very well.

"My son said that the foundation of Pompeii is the territory. From now on, I will stay in the territory where our Pompeii family has been thriving for generations, and I will not interfere in the affairs of the Barton family. But don't worry, if anything happens to the Barton family, I will stand up immediately."

Old Thor came to Natsu Wilson and made a promise to his friend who he grew up with.

"good."

This is a knight you can trust.

"Oh, there is one thing left. The issue of Gandor's next generation of knight successor." Natsu Wilson suddenly said.

Although Old Thor said that the relationship with the Barton family would change from monarch to ally, Naz Wilson felt that he should discuss this matter with his old friend.

"I think Babana's second daughter is pretty good, a strong girl." Old Thor said after thinking for a while.

"But she is only twelve years old. Can she accept the burden of a huge family? In addition, now that the new party is hiding behind the scenes, the Barton family needs a powerful Gandal knight."

Natsu, Wilson couldn't help but say.

Babana, Gandor's second daughter, is a girl with excellent knight talent. But she represents the future, and now Gandor needs a strong modern knight.

"Natsu, my friend. I said I would continue to protect the Barton family. If even I can't protect them, then another senior knight won't be able to do anything. It would be better to let Barbana's second daughter grow up and inherit everything from Barbana. This would be a comfort to our friend."

Old Thor said seriously to Natsu Wilson.

Natsu, Wilson was silent for a moment, then finally nodded.

Although what Old Thor said was not quite right, because he was friends with Babana and Gandaor in their early years, but there were frictions between the two from time to time over the years.

We are no longer friends.

At most, they are colleagues.

But Naz Wilson still cherishes the memory of Babana Gandal, and he is not opposed to letting Babana Gandal's daughter inherit the title of knight.

"Okay, the Patton family will be handed over to you from now on. It's time for me to go." Old Thor patted Natsu and Wilson on the shoulder and said.

"Take care of yourself."

Natsu and Wilson nodded, and then the two of them walked out of the Pompeii residence together. Old Thor, accompanied by the family knights, returned to Pompeii.

If the Patton family is in decline, then the Pompeii family is shining brightly.

Luther knew long ago that in order to obtain the status of a noble, financial and military power were two indispensable weapons.

Luther is confident in his path as a knight, but he is too young to support the rapid development of the Pompeii family.

So he made his father the great knight, responsible for the output of military force.

He himself was making huge profits from the economy and developing the prosperity of his territory.

The combined efforts of father and son will become a huge force. And this force will become stronger and stronger, and may eventually become a force that can influence Orange and even the entire Kingdom of Prussia.

As Old Thor became a great knight, this power gradually showed its power.

The whole of Orange was in turmoil, not for any other reason but because Baron Patton, a great nobleman, was killed so easily.

There is nothing more reliable than a safe city.

A city ruled by a great knight will naturally be extremely safe.

Therefore, during this period, more and more ordinary residents, businessmen, middle class, and even wealthy people came to Pompeii to explore and hoped to settle down in Pompeii.

Compared with the declining Patton family, the Pompeii family gradually prospered.
