Breakfast has been eaten.
Just after breakfast, Soye brought the sample costume she’d just finished crafting.
The sample was a blank prototype made for fitting before the final product. ‘Blank’ doesn’t refer to the fabric necessarily being white, but to the initial style, which is checked for fitting.
While fitting the sample, the fabric, lace, and buttons can still be adjusted.
The sudden completion of Soye’s costume forced Fang Hao to revise his plans or the day. He decided to lead his team directly to Lyss City to have the city lord’s wife try on the sample attire.
Speeding up the costume-making process was also part of his plan to open a shop in Lyss City soon.
Having decided to head toward Lyss City, Fang Hao summoned Eira and Blood Hunter.
After giving instructions about matters in his territory, he then left the area with Anjia and Demitrija.
At the southern fortress, they mounted swift, purple-scaled horses with a company of 20 heavy sword infantry.
At this time, the storage feature of the Book of Lords played an important role. All the equipment for the entire team was packed by Fang Hao into the storage space. &
This greatly minimized exhaustion on the journey.
The main reason why Tavek’s trade convoy took two days last time was due to the slow pace of the loaded cargo.
“Let’s set off.” With a wave from Fang Hao, the team quickly hit the road.
Demitrija and Fang Hao rode on a giant lizard, while Anjia was on her own purple-scaled horse, whom she named Purple Thunder.
She didn’t know if it might share a name with some hero in the future.
The speed of the convoy was extremely swift, with the sound of horses’ hooves and the whistling wind in their ears.
In just a few minutes, glancing back, the fortress was already out of sight.
Demitrija was controlling the giant lizard, while Fang Hao was seated at the back.
He opened the Book of Lords, planning to kill time by checking the regional channel.
As soon as he opened it, he noticed a new private message.
He had been too busy before to see it.
Mr. Fang Hao, the trolls have sent you a designated order. Kindly manufacture it when you see it.” The speaker was Xu Yang, the city lord who had helped him connect with the trolls.
The message was sent an hour ago.
It should’ve been around the time when Doujin sent the order.
After thinking for a moment, Fang Hao replied: “Just saw it. The order has already been completed.”
Xu Yang’s response was quite prompt.
“Mr. Fang Hao, we have received the goods.”
“Do the trolls have such high consumption? They placed an order just recently, how are they ordering so many equipments again?” Fang Hao asked curiously. ’ Same type of equipment, the same quantity.
“Ah! Don’t remind me. The trolls lost a battle awhile ago and a lot of tribe members died. Now there’s quite a bit of chaos among the troll tribes, all of them are stockpiling equipment. There seems to be a risk of internal strife.” Xu Yang said a lot, full of worry.
If the trolls start an internal war, he too would be at risk.
He was already in a precarious position, depending on the troll tribe as their slave leader. If the situation gets out of hand, he would end up in trouble.
Xu Yang’s words, reminded Fang Hao of the Bloodthroat Mountains.
Last time, the Bloodthroat Tribe had led an attack on him with the help of other troll tribes.
They lost over a hundred thousand trolls there.
This situation seemed similar to Xu Yang’s description of the troll tribes.
Of course, Fang Hao didn’t directly ask if the trolls were the same ones from the Bloodthroat Mountains, as Xu Yang might not be reliable.
After some thought, he decided to just say, “Well, be careful. Tell the trolls that I have many other supplies for sale. If they are willing, they can buy it from me.”
“Oh, alright. I’ll pass your message to the trolls.”
After ending his chat with Xu Yang, Fang Hao kept this matter in mind.
In the future, he could pay attention to Xu Yang’s situation. If there indeed are problems within the Bloodthroat Mountains…
He could take the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
By doing so, he could remove this unstable element once and for all.
On the road, a lord in a plaid shirt stroked his handsome steed.
The grey mane was a bit scruffy, but he continued to caress it contentedly. He had bought it from a travelling merchant and spent 50 Warfire coins on it. He knew the merchant had charged a high price, but he bought it nonetheless and was very pleased.
Now, he was riding his horse, leading his soldiers to hunt in the woods ahead. The lord in the plaid shirt pulled out the Book of Lords, sending a photo he had just taken of his beautiful horse to a district channel.
Seeing the admiration pouring in on the channel, the smile on his face grew wider.
“Wait.” The lord suddenly halted the advance of his troops.
“My Lord, what’s the matter?” asked a curious soldier.
“The scenery around the bend is nice, take a picture of me there. Just aim it at me and press there.”
He then situated his horse on the side of the road and struck a handsome pose.
Thump, thump, thump!
Just then, the sound of galloping hooves came from behind.
As the group turned to look in surprise, several purple horses, followed by a whooshing sound of wind, rushed by.
They were as beautiful as sapphires, tall and imposing, exceptionally beautiful when running.
The lord in the plaid shirt was mesmerized, while his own horse was startled.
With a whinny, it reared its front legs.
Throwing him off and causing him to tumble to the ground in an embarrassing
The soldiers quickly calmed the horse and helped him up.
Snatching the Book of Lords, the lord in plaid took several photos of the retreating purple horses.
Straightaway, he posted them on the district channel, “[ImageJPurple horses,
like a bolt of purple lightning, they’re too fast.”
Within the district channel.
“Did you take these with a landline phone? Dare to make it blurrier.”
“Is this a Kylin? Or some warcraft, what kind of horse is this strong.”
“It’s a horse, it passed right by me, aside from being purple and huge, just like
any other horse.” The lord in plaid emphasised.
“Then why didn’t you take a frontal shot?”
“I can’t catch up to them, they were already this far by the time I got to take a photo.”
“Even if it’s a horse, it’s definitely a special breed. I also want such an attractive horse.”
“Yeah, that’s my second wish after a beautiful female companion, a purple horse.”
“Has the person above considered a purple female horse? Two wishes in one.”
“Damn, you’re smart.”
“I’d accept a centaur, but not a pure horse.”
“You’re really picky.”
Closing the district chat, the soldier led the scared horse over.
‘My Lord, it’s already calmed down. We can take a photo now.”
The lord in plaid glanced at the direction where the purple cavalry had left and
shook his head slightly, “No need, nothing interesting here to take.”
Fang Hao paid no attention to the chat in the channel.
By dusk, Fang Hao and his group finally arrived at Lyss City.
The purple-scaled horses were heaving heavily, their bodies drenched in sweat.
They had travelled non-stop, and even the endurance-strong purple-scaled horses were starting to get tired.
After showing their travel documents to the city guards, they went directly into the city.
After checking into a hotel, Fang Hao and Anjia hurried straight to the Lord’s mansion.
It was not late yet, much earlier than when Rebecca had summoned all the merchants last time. She shouldn’t be asleep yet.
Mr Fang Hao, the lady is attending an important banquet tonight, I will convey your message to her.”
At the front of the Lord’s residence, a servant announced.
