Chapter 1194: Chapter 325: Weak Powers Have No Diplomacy (10K)_3
Earlly continued speaking: "Earlly waited with the Ignition Team for several hours, but did not see Jon Zuck’s army escaping."
"Instead, Samuel arrived with the Church’s guard cavalry from Kakasong City!"
"The Church Guard took over the Lorraine Entrance, claiming it was to look for survivors and protect the farmland from being burnt."
"However, after the Church Guard arrived at the Lorraine Entrance, two people escaped from the sea of fire!"
"Through conversation, Earlly learned that the ones who escaped the blaze were Jon Zuck and his Knight Commander, Ah Ke!"
Lynn’s brow instantly lifted, waiting for Earlly to continue his tale.
Earlly switched the topic in his mouth.
"But, Samuel didn’t take Jon Zuck and his Knight Commander, who escaped, back to Kakasong City for treatment."
"Instead, after confirming their identities, he personally killed them!"
"Then ordered his subordinates to toss their bodies back into the sea of fire."
"Furthermore, Samuel issued orders to the guards under him..."
"No survivors from the Fire of Lorraine!"
Upon hearing this.
Lynn immediately frowned, pondering in his mind.
Samuel led the Church Guard to take over the Lorraine Entrance.
Did he kill Jon Zuck and the Knight Commander escaping the sea of fire?
Was it because Samuel received the fifteen Gold Pounds he offered?
As a reward.
Samuel helped him by killing Jon Zuck who had escaped?
A second later.
Lynn immediately dismissed this notion.
Fifteen Gold Pounds were just for Samuel to inform him about some of the intelligence gathered in Kakasong City.
This amount of Gold Pounds couldn’t possibly make Samuel take the risk of killing Jon Zuck?
Even if Jon Zuck’s entire army perished in the fire of Lorraine, he was still the Viscount of Kakasong City!
Personally appointed as Viscount by the Marquis Ducas!
Aside from this reason...
After a while.
Lynn’s mouth slightly curved into a smile.
Clearly.
As the Church Guard Captain, Samuel received orders from Bishop Simo Tucker!
Upon learning that Jon Zuck’s army entered Lorraine and was trapped by the sea of fire.
Simo immediately ordered Samuel to lead the guards and stationed them at the forest entrance!
Should anyone escape, they would be killed immediately.
Thus, ensuring Jon Zuck’s complete destruction!
Once Viscount Jon Zuck dies, Kakasong City will fall into leaderlessness.
Moreover, with Marquis Ducas entangled in the Spirit Reef Port stand-off campaign, unable to spare any attention.
Simo, as the Church Bishop of Kakasong City, with the support of many followers.
Naturally is the most eligible and probable candidate to become the Lord of Kakasong City!
He doesn’t shy away from risking life, entering Morgan Town, collecting tithes on his territory.
His greediness is imaginable!
However.
If Simo wants to become the Lord of Kakasong City.
For Lynn, it’s not a bad thing!
It’s crucial to know.
In Kakasong City there’s not just Viscount Jon Zuck and Church Bishop Simo.
There are many free nobles, wealthy merchants, workshop masters, and talents from various fields...
Simo has to suppress other forces and personnel if he wants to become the Lord of Kakasong City.
The most critical point is.
Currently, Simo lacks armed soldiers, lacks military strength.
Even if he wants to attack Morgan Town or his territory, he’s powerless!
Moreover, Lynn is paying tithing to Simo.
And the last time Simo entered Morgan Town, viewed its military strength...
At least for now, Simo won’t target Lynn.
This means.
Lynn has enough time to focus on the development and construction of Morgan Town and his territory.
Pushing his thoughts aside, Lynn looked at Earlly and responded.
"I have noted your report, it is indeed important!"
"If there’s nothing else to report, take the Ignition Team back to rest."
Earlly reminisced briefly in his mind, confirming there was nothing omitted, and responded.
"Yes, my lord."
Earlly, with ten soldiers behind him, all covered in soot and in distress, moved towards the Lorraine exit in the direction of Morgan Town.
As Earlly and his men departed into the distance, Lynn withdrew his gaze.
With Victor leading armored soldiers, cleaning the charred bodies from the ground.
Lynn stepped forward, continuing towards the Lorraine Entrance in the direction of Kakasong City.
After several hours.
Lynn stood at the entrance of Lorraine.
His gaze cast afar.
In the distance, dozens of miles away, a towering city nestled amidst vast flat farmland.
The golden light of the setting sun poured down.
Covering the city walls, arrow towers, and numerous buildings, it gilded them with a dazzling golden hue.
Lynn naturally knew that city was Kakasong City!
The city walls stood tall, built relying on the Seine River.
It could utilize the Seine River for transporting trade via longships and for irrigation of farmlands...
Given such advantageous geographical conditions, forming a city is reasonable.
However.
From whatever angle Lynn observed.
Lynn still believed that the geographical conditions of Kakasong City couldn’t compare with his own territory!
In times of peace, it’s fine.
The vast surrounding farmland of Kakasong City can be used for cultivation and planting, yielding abundant crops.
But if conflict arises...
This flat farmland becomes the best battlefield for cavalry attacks!
