Chapter 284: None of them are good.

Chapter 279 None of The Good Guys

“A development history worthy of a legend.” Seeing that Hydra had developed into a powerful Northern Territory Lord in just a few years, Pieters couldn’t help but speak, while a hidden envy was in his heart.

But as a normal thinking person, Pieters wouldn’t believe in any legendary development history, it was simply an insult to his intelligence, so there was definitely a huge power behind Hydra that was supporting him.

Just by calculating how many resources it would take to grow to such a size in a few years, one could narrow down the list of who the power behind Hydra was, which was exactly what Pieters was doing right now.

After a while, Pieters couldn’t help but suck in a mouthful of air after tallying up the resources that would need to be spent, it wasn’t that he hadn’t seen the world, it was mainly because his teeth hurt a bit.

What kind of boring person would choose to invest such a scale of resources in the Northlands, it wasn’t that Pieters’ family couldn’t shell out, but they couldn’t afford to part with a whole hundred years of accumulation.

Right, a whole hundred years of accumulation.

Pitts family territory is located in the imperial circle, because of geographical advantage, not purely rely on farming, but actively participate in a variety of commercial behavior, so the income in the earl belongs to the highest group, but after subtracting the annual expenses, the rest of the money needs to be accumulated for a hundred years in order to complete the feat of building a city in the Northland, and also just purely to build a city, the other aspects of the city still need to be continuously invested in order to accelerate the development.

There is no count family dare to take a hundred years of accumulation bet, really think that the nobles light savings do not spend, in fact, spend a lot of places, can leave a hundred years of accumulation as the bottom of the really few.

So unless this part of the input is not so much as to make the family hurt, that is to say, need a larger volume to qualify for the shot.

Pieters estimated that the actual power marquis are a bit reluctant, at least it must be a duke level or prince level to be able to complete across such a large area.

On a piece of paper, he wrote down all the powerful dukes and princes in the empire, and then took out the map and compared it to see who was closest to the Northland and most likely to make such a large sum of money.

Everyone knows that the future development of the Northland is related to the power change of the empire, the only problem is that the initial investment is too large, but also easy to be targeted, so the strength of the strong in the various parties under the constraints of the field did not go down, the strength of the weak for fear of the first to go down will be eaten, only those willing to gamble on it to let the family’s side branch into the Northland, it can be said that the current Northland is in a peculiar state of equilibrium.

But Hydra’s scale is no longer a gamble, and it is not too much to say that it is a dominant family.

Not to mention that Pitts stayed up all night agonizing over non-existence, Owen slept through the morning, only to still be freshening up when he vaguely heard voices coming from the back of the manor.

Sharon had thought about her life after graduation many times, even if she was forced to offer her body to the object of her allegiance was also in her consideration, she was confident that by virtue of her own ability and looks she would have a day of reckoning, the only thing she never thought of was that she would end up in such a situation just after joining the profession, it was almost like the time when she had just entered the war academy and was being hammered by the teachers to learn the combat skills, she was drenched in sweat not to mention that she was covered in dust, and her head of beautiful long hair had turned into a messy mess, the whole person was in a terrible state. The whole thing was awful.

Even so Sharon did not dare to have the slightest bit of slack, familiar practice sword in the strong arm under the swing like a cold light, enough to cut the stake in the air, with her exquisite sword skills, even if she did not use fighting qi is enough to defeat most of the students of the War College, but facing that wearing tight leather jacket carrying two swords with a pair of peculiar pupils of the beast female warrior, but can only barely maintain not to be crushed.

Moreover, she could feel that the other party did not take it seriously, not only did she only use a practice sword, but she also did not use any other means and potions, which made Sharon, who had not had an opponent in the academy for a long time, could not help but feel a strong sense of frustration. But the Witch Hunter, who was her opponent, didn’t care what her opponent was thinking, and utilized the exquisite sword skills originating from the Demon Hunter to press on, squeezing out all the potential that Sharon herself hadn’t even realized.

Sharon wasn’t the only one to suffer such a fate, in fact, the eight witch hunters were training these freshly graduated rookies one-on-one, with no basic skills, putting on their leather armor and picking up the unopened practice swords were all all kinds of actual combat exercises.

These freshly graduated female knights may be excellent trainees in the academy, but when facing the witch hunter is so delicate, was defeated.

There is no way, each witch hunter has been strengthened not to mention, but also given the template of the witch hunter by Owen, especially following him in the mountains for a variety of practical battles, regardless of the beasts subhuman or lizardman have a lot of deaths in their hands, coupled with a variety of adventurers in the territory, as well as the root of the secret training, their methods are not comparable to these rookies, just pure swordplay is tossed to the death of the girls, only Sharon can Barely able to support, the result was recognized by the witch hunter her potential, all kinds of increase, so that she can not help but scream.

Everyone is a woman, coupled with the witch hunter’s twisted thinking, simply do not know what is pity, much less mercy, anyway, as long as you do not die, a few bottles of magic potion poured, even if all the bones are broken, at most lie down for a day, more than half a day is a waste of time, the small injuries are even more needless to say, the bones are not broken, not considered to be an injury.

See these rookies miserable, Owen did not interfere with the meaning, anyway, as long as the death can not be on the line, but also have to give a little sweet, so that they have more sufficient power.

This is not difficult for Owen, heavily armored magic sheep, secret silver steel equipment, so that Sharon can not help but shine in both eyes of the luxurious suit a debut, all the female knights have become motivated, and then by the Witch Hunt continue to abuse the dead.

In fact, watching beautiful women rolling on the ground is still quite interesting, but the more interesting Pitts came, Owen can only regretfully decide to watch more sessions next time.

“Honorable Lord Earl, Peters, son of Earl Pilsa, has come to pay his respects.” Today’s Pieters looks a lot smoother, although coated with rouge and smeared with hair oil, but compared to yesterday’s greasy to the extent that it can be directly lit on fire has been a lot better, obviously yesterday’s short contact let him understand Owen’s preferences, so he will make a change, this is that is to put their own position lower, but also a kind of catering.

With the attitude that Pieters has shown, to say that there are no plans for him in his heart, Owen will not believe it.

But this is good, at least Owen does not need to deliberately keep a distance from him, in order to prevent sticking to the oil is not good to wash.

“Just call me Owen.” In the face of the low profile of Pieters, Owen did not have the intention to step on a foot, but said with a smile.

Although he knew that the other party didn’t have any sincerity and had ulterior motives, it didn’t prevent Owen from utilizing the other party’s connections to speed up his familiarity with the local situation and collect intelligence in the meantime.

In fact, everyone is not a good person, and good people can not be a nobleman, because they are either played to death by others, or to play themselves to death, there is no difference, so Owen laughed happily, Pieters laughed happily as well.
