Seeing that he seemed to have a chance to live, the fear on Monroe’s face decreased a little. He quickly said, “There is an iron mine on the mountain north of Lister.”
“The black iron mine?”
Even Locke was surprised to hear the words “black iron mine”. He knew about the black iron ore. It was a good kind of ore used to make weapons. The appearance of the black iron mine was often accompanied by a bloody scramble. After all, a black iron mine meant a huge amount of wealth.
Locke didn’t get dizzy by the unexpected fortune. He raised his long sword and said indifferently, “Your life is in my hands now. You have to think clearly about the consequences of lying to me.”
There was no residential area in the mountains in the north of Lister, so he only looked at it carelessly before. It was a deserted land.
“I promise! What I said is true!”
Seeing Locke holding a long sword, Monroe trembled and promised loudly.
It seemed that the man didn’t lie to him. Looking at Monroe’s frightened expression, Locke almost believed him.
Locke asked slowly, “Now, it’s time to tell me which force you come from.”
“I’m a member of the Brandon family. This land was originally chosen by Count Brandon. However, your father intervened. We were ordered by Count Brandon to disguise as bandits to destroy you and take over Lister.”
In the face of the danger of his life, Monroe spoke out everything he knew without reservation.
It turned out that after knowing that Lister owned the black iron mine, Count Brandon didn’t want to alert anyone. He planned to get this territory to himself secretly, but he didn’t expect that Locke’s father took a step ahead and made it the territory of Locke.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn fact, both Black Rock Bandits and Osburn Bandits were tools for the Brandon family to collect wealth.
If a barren and remote territory was occupied by the bandits, not many people would care about it. Next, Count Brandon would send an army to annihilate the bandits and accept Lister openly.
However, who would have thought that the Black Rock Bandits and Osburn Bandits would be killed by a person who was called a loser.
After saying that, Monroe closed his mouth. He was not stupid. He did not threaten Locke with the Brandon family. He was very clear that it was completely stupid to provoke the other party at this time.
However, Count Brandon would soon know the situation here, and he would send stronger people there.
‘When the people of Sir Count came over… Locke Capet, I must wash away today’s shame!’
Although Monroe thought so, he didn’t dare to show it. He carefully observed Locke’s expression, fearing that Locke would regret and end his life with a sword strike.
“The Brandon family…”
Locke recalled the information of the Brandon family in his mind. The Brandon family was also a count-level force, but as one of the top forces in Naton County, it was far from something the Capet family could compare with. In a word, the two families were not at the same level.
Humph! Even if Monroe was from the Brandon family, he should be prepared to pay the price for hitting him!
Locke sneered in his heart, with a murderous look in his eyes.
“Guards, take him down. If you find out what tricks he dares to play, kill him directly.”
Locke didn’t plan to kill Monroe. After all, Monroe was a level-2 mage, so it might be useful.
Kotter and the others also came over from afar and grabbed Monroe from the ground.
After sending someone to take Monroe out, Locke went to check the injuries of Kerton and others.
To their surprise, when they rushed back, the wounds of Kerton and other people had healed!
“Mr. Asclepius, are you a noble healer?”
Asclepius nodded with a smile, “Sort of.”
After regaining some of his divine power, he could directly use healing skills. According to the understanding of this world, he should be considered a healer.
Mr. Asclepius was a healer! Creator! How stupid we were to doubt his medical skills!
Kotter and the others were very shocked. First Miss Athena, and now Mr. Asclepius, where did Master Locke find these two horrible people!
“Master Locke and Mr. Asclepius, we leave first, please excuse us.”
Seeing that Kerton was safe and sound, Kotter felt relieved and left respectfully.
It seemed that Asclepius needed to train a few healers for his territory. In the future, there would be more and more residents in Lister. It was inappropriate to ask Asclepius to cure everything in person.
Watching receding figures of Kotter and the others, Locke suddenly came up with this idea.
“Ding~ Trigger the system task.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Task: Train four healers. Task reward: it will be distributed according to the completion of the task.”
Just as Locke was thinking about this, the voice of the system came through.
It was a huge project to train healers. A healer should first have the wood magic talent, and at the same time learn the relevant magic of the healer.
However, since there was the system task, no matter how difficult it was, he had to complete it!
Locke made up his mind. After all, the reward given by the system had never let him down.
After Kotter and the others left, Locke told Asclepius that he wanted to train healers.
Asclepius’ eyes lit up and he stroked the beard on his chin, “When the healers are trained, I’ll have more time to study the pharmacopeia, too.”
After a moment of contemplation, he continued, “I will first select a few children among the territory and teach them to know the medicinal materials and familiarize themselves with medicinal theory. But you also know that my practice method is not suitable for them, so you need to solve the practice method of healers in this world.”
“No problem. I’ll take care of the practice method of healers.”
Locke nodded with a smile. There was no practice method of healers in his territory, so he planned to go to the Bone City to have a look.
However, the most important thing right now was the black iron mine. If it really existed, then he wouldn’t have to worry about gold coins in the future!
After thinking for a while, Locke decided to find Athena.
Seeing that Athena was reading a book on the wall, Locke asked, “I heard from the mage that there is a black iron mine hidden in the mountains in the north of the territory. I’m going to have a look. Would you like to go with me?”
“I’ve read a book for so long. Just take it as stretching my body.” Athena closed the book in her hand and stretched herself leisurely. Then she stood up and said, “Let’s go.”
A gentle breeze blew a few strands of hair at the girl’s temples. When Athena stretched herself, her curvaceous figure made Locke’s heart beat faster.
Looking at Athena’s back, Locke smiled helplessly. Athena was getting more and more casual in front of him.
