Chapter 1003 - 293: Who Dares Disrespect Him? (10,000 Words)_4

"Abandon the manor and retreat immediately, retreat as far as possible!"

"The best choice is to go straight to Kakasong City."

"With Viscount Jon Zack’s protection, and with the city walls as defenses, it sure guarantees your safety, Master!"

Walter’s words had barely fallen.

Land’s disbelief voice immediately rang out.

"Walter! Are you crazy?"

"How dare you suggest Master Zok abandon the manor and flee?"

"Don’t you know that Connelly Manor is the ancestral property and domain of Master Zok?"

Land’s eyes turned, and the tone of his words shifted.

"I know now!"

"Master, I finally understand why Walter has been emphasizing the abundance of armored soldiers in Morgan Town."

"Walter wants you to abandon Connelly Manor, allowing the lord of Morgan Town to occupy your manor effortlessly."

"Yes! That must be it!"

Walter’s eyes widened, his fists covered in chain armor gloves instantly tightened.

Walter, unable to suppress his anger any longer, glared at Land, and spoke word by word.

"Enough!"

"If you accuse me again, I’ll throw you down right now."

Feeling Walter’s aura all over, Land’s heart was slightly startled.

He hurriedly stepped forward two steps, trying to get closer to Master Zok’s canopy bed.

"Master Zok, you see, Walter dared to speak such threatening words in front of you."

"This is disrespect to you..."

Walter’s inner anger burned even more, he took one step forward.

Master Zok’s voice sounded from within the canopy.

"Enough!"

Walter and Land immediately bent their waists.

"Walter, just as you said."

"Gather the guards and peasants, dig defensive works, then arrange the guards to go to Louis Manor and the other three manors to request military aid."

"Also, send guards to Kakasong City to report this to Viscount Jon Zack!"

Receiving Master Zok’s firm instructions, Walter was solemn inside, immediately responded.

"Yes, Master, Walter will arrange this!"

Upon hearing Master Zok’s response, Walter glared at Land again.

Only then did he stride out of the bedroom.

In Walter’s view, regardless of whether Connelly Manor can receive help from other manor lords in Alba Town.

Retreating is the best coping method!

Because in front of at least two thousand armored soldiers sent by Lynn, the lord of Morgan Town.

Even if all the soldiers of the manor lords were gathered together.

It wouldn’t exceed three thousand in total!

In number, perhaps not much different from the armored soldiers army about to enter Alba Town.

But in terms of equipment, the gap is really too large.

Unarmored soldiers with only a long sword and scimitar on them, how could they possibly be a match for a fully armed squad of armored soldiers?

Especially when they also have heavy cavalry.

If a war breaks out.

It would be a one-sided crushing!

But Walter also understands.

Letting a manor lord abandon a manor that has been passed down for generations.

Losing land and losing privileges.

This is no different from being exterminated from outside!

In the bedroom.

Standing in place, Land watched Walter leave.

Land withdrew his gaze.

Through the somewhat translucent canopy, he looked at Zok holding the maid with his right arm and asked.

"Master, the words of Walter the guard captain are obviously false."

"Why do you choose to trust him?"

Master Zok replied coldly with a bit of displeasure: "Do I need to explain to you?"

Land was shocked in his heart, he hurriedly bowed his head and bent over, respectfully saying.

"Too many words from Land, please forgive, Master."

Master Zok snorted coldly: "No need for more nonsense."

"Immediately go and tidy up the money and valuables in the manor, and prepare a carriage."

Perhaps not wishing to hear Land’s questioning, Master Zok added.

"In an hour, I need to go to Kakasong City for an appointment!"

Land raised an eyebrow, and he quickly responded.

"Yes, Master, Land will go now."

Seeing Master Zok have no more words.

Land bowed and saluted, then exited the bedroom, gently closing the double wooden doors for Master Zok.

As for him being pushed by Walter and crashing under the dining table...

Since Master Zok hadn’t given instructions, he naturally didn’t dare to mention it again.

Before he even took two steps, the maid’s soft and curious inquiry rang from the bedroom.

"Master, it’s so late, do you still want to go to Kakasong City for an appointment?"

Master Zok laughed and said: "It’s so late, what appointment could there be?"

"Going to Kakasong City is naturally as a precaution!"

"If what Walter said is true, I can take advantage of this chance to temporarily leave Alba Town."

"Compared to the so-called manor, staying alive is the most important!"

"Even if the manor is occupied by Lynn."

"I can wait for Viscount Jon Zack to gather all supportive manor lords to destroy Lynn and reclaim the manor."

"Moreover, I might even use this opportunity to ask Viscount Jon Zack for more profits from the fine salt production."

"If what Walter said is false, the manor won’t suffer any loss."

"I can even use the chance to gather manor lords to see who in Alba Town is unwilling to provide military aid to my Connelly Manor!"

Master Zok’s playful laughter continued to ring in the bedroom.

"Don’t worry, both your appearance and figure are to my liking, of course I’ll bring you along!"
