Chapter 1057 - 302: Submission or Death (10,000)
Lynn did not immediately respond, but instead asked a question.
"Is the crisis at Wells Manor caused by Jon Zack from Kakasong City?"
Helena slightly bowed her head and explained, "Yes, Lord Lynn."
"Before your army launched an attack on Connelly Manor, Manor Lord Zock had sent guards to our manors."
"To request military aid from us by dispatching guards and peasants from our manors."
"But due to long-standing conflicts between the manors, we all chose to refuse military aid to Connelly..."
"Ultimately, Connelly Manor was destroyed by your army, and Zock, as the Manor Lord, fled early to Kakasong City."
Lynn nodded, listening to Helena’s account.
"Given Zock’s petty nature, he will surely retaliate against our manors."
"With the military strength led by Jon Zack and supported by other manor lords, we are definitely no match."
"And you, Lord Lynn, are the only lord in the entire Kakasong City area with formidable military strength, unafraid of offending Viscount Jon Zack."
"Only you can save us!"
At this point,.
The physically and emotionally exhausted Helena no longer wished to engage in any more entanglements with Lynn.
She poured out all the crises and challenges faced by the manor to Lynn.
Helena knew.
To gain more dignity in front of Lynn.
To obtain military protection from Lynn at the least cost.
It was simply impossible!
To obtain the protection of a powerful lord.
The only way is to give everything and plead!
Listening to Helena’s explanation, Lynn nodded slightly, his expression not showing any surprise.
Not to mention.
Zock Connally did not die in the fall of Connelly Manor.
Even if he had died in that battle.
With the death of Jon Zack’s two supporting manor lords and the loss of control over Boxi Town.
Jon Zack will certainly arrange or support a new manor lord.
Helena and the other three manor lords, having been indifferent and unhelpful when the two supporting manors were destroyed.
Will certainly face Viscount Jon Zack’s reckoning.
If Helena and the two other manor lords want to survive and have their manors continue to be passed down, they naturally need protection.
Or, they could submit to Viscount Jon Zack.
But Helena and the two manor lords have never become Jon Zack’s supporter manor lords for so long.
There must be a special reason for this.
No matter what the reason or hidden matters are, Lynn did not care.
Looking at Helena, Lynn said, "I can accept the allegiance and loyalty of Wells Manor."
"And I can extend a helping hand in the life and death crisis faced by Wells Manor."
"Including when an attack is launched against Wells Manor by Viscount Jon Zack from Kakasong City and his supporters!"
Lynn, who could not avoid it, was bound to fight Viscount Jon Zack and the supporting manor lords.
If he could gain the allegiance of the Alba Town Manor Lord while waging war.
That would naturally be the best!
With the expanding territory.
Lynn needed more labor for the subsequent land reclamation, planting, defensive construction, and soldier recruitment.
Helena’s usually somber eyes brightened with delight.
Brick and Alex looked slightly surprised.
Even under the attack of Viscount Jon Zack, could Lynn still provide military aid?
Keep in mind.
Viscount Jon Zack has armored soldiers and ordinary soldiers numbering at least over two thousand.
If the remaining six manor lords gather all the guards and peasants from the manor, the number is at least nine thousand.
In total, at least eleven thousand!
How could Lynn dare to make such confident promises?
The next second.
Brick and Alex realized something.
Seated on the throne, Lynn had a sufficient number of armored soldiers.
Enough to give Lynn absolute confidence to not fall into a disadvantageous position in the coming war with Viscount Jon Zack!
Brick and Alex exchanged glances without speaking, but both had made up their minds.
Brick and Alex bowed respectfully and said,.
"Lord Lynn, Orlando Manor and Kennedy Manor are also willing to submit to you."
"We hope Lord Lynn will accept us."
Hearing their coinciding words, Helena could not help but cast a cold glance at them.
One could say that since being in the Wells Manor study, she had been the one strategizing.
Figuring out how to meet Lynn.
After meeting Lynn, how to maximize their benefits...
Even though all hopes fell through under Lynn’s strong presence.
Still.
Brick and Alex only opportunistically benefited, making Helena disdainful in her heart!
Looking at the bowing Brick and Alex, Lynn said gravely.
"Of course."
"As long as you offer loyalty, you can all become my supporter manor lords!"
Upon hearing Lynn’s affirmative response, Helens and the other two felt relieved.
Yet.
Before they could take a breath, Lynn’s deep voice echoed throughout the reception hall.
"However, I must say in advance, I need to know the extent of the loyalty you can offer!"
"Otherwise, when your manors face enemy attacks."
"It will be difficult for me to make an accurate judgment and save you at a crucial moment..."
This time, not just Helena.
