SSS-Class Ranker Return

Chapter 122

Saint Appearance (3)

Negotiations between Rokhan and Lord Linai proceeded straight away.

Maybe it was because Rokhan’s persuasion worked, or because Lord Linai almost gave up on his intention to sell the estate.

Moreover, when he received the position of chief of security and provided the condition that he would not exploit the people of the territory, the cost of selling the territory was lower than Rokhan’s expectations.

Good news for a Lokan who was willing to buy even if they called twice as much.

He immediately wrote and signed the contract.

[Reinai territory belongs to Rokhan.][You can use the territory management window.][All races pay attention to you, the first visitor noble.]

After writing the contract, as soon as the agreement was sent to the Parliament and the Emperor, a second letter from Lord Remington flew in.

“It’s still me.”

“Right.”

The lord of Linai, or no, the lord of Linai, Decarn completely laid aside his pride as a nobleman within a short period of time.

Although he was of the same baron status, he was determined to focus only on protecting Rinai Youngji and Youngji people here by assisting Rokhan from his predecessors.

Not only did he give Lokan an honorific title, but he also struggled with the provocation of the Remington Lord.

“It’s just as expected.”

But unlike Deckarn, who was worried, Lokan smiled as he read the letter.

The lord of Remington declared war to protect the life and honor of his territorial Min, saying that his territorial Min was insulted and threatened with life in the Linai estate.

It was sooner than expected, but I thought it was probably because the land of Rinai, whom I had been eyeing, fell into Lokan’s hands.

‘I’m impatient.’

So it was clear that he had decided to hurry.

If you cause a riot when you are in a commotion due to the transfer of ownership of the estate, you can get over it, but if you try after the estate is stable and quiet, it will attract attention.

Moreover, the target who obtained the territory was Lokan. He made a secret agreement with himself (). He had no reason not to rush.

“Are you okay?”

“of course.”

But even then, he didn’t completely trust Rokhan. That’s because he suggested that the proxy match be 5v5 rather than a one-on-one.

Even if Rokhan had a different heart, he did everything he could to make sure that even a single victory was not a problem.

The number was so small that he was immediately recognized by Lokan.

“Because you can do this.”

After reading his form to the end, Lokan picked up a pen and wrote a reply. He accepted the knight battle, with one condition attached.

winner match.

It takes a team battle to determine the winner, but the winner chooses to stay and fight.

The reason was simple. There was not a single knight-level person in the Reinai estate other than himself, the lord, and conversely, he would be enough if he defeated them all. The opponent will not even know it is a trap and will attack it.And soon a reply arrived.

[The Knights War between the Remington and Linai estates has been established.][In the next three days, a knight battle will be held in the presence of observers.][When you win, you can acquire ownership of the opponent’s territory.][In case of defeat, you will lose ownership of the land you own.]

Accept the Knights War! Naturally, the conditions suggested by Lokan were included.

As the two provinces had different levels of development and potential, it could be said that the Remington Lord was a far more unfavorable condition, but it also meant that he had that much confidence.

If you win, you can eat a whole estate without spilling a drop of blood.

Although it was a visitor, it was a mistake from not expecting that Lokan would grow this much in such a short period of time.

‘It can’t be done already.’

As long as the Knights War was established, the subsequent progress left the hands of the two lords.

Because it was under the jurisdiction of the emperor and the parliament, to cancel in the middle, he had to pay a huge compensation or buy the wrath of the emperor. It’s like a baron overturned what the emperor dared to approve.

In the worst case, all property and territory could be confiscated, so it was virtually impossible to soften.

“Heh heh heh!”

From Linai’s territory to Remington’s territory! In addition, if he devoured even a small territory that was effectively subordinate to Lord Remington, Rokhan could have a one-man estate.

Together, we will prepare a bridgehead for further growth.

‘Three days to go.’

Besides, in three days he was able to do quite a few things.

There was no reason to lose unless Lord Remington noticed and brought even a master-level mercenary.

Of course, there was no way he had the financial power to move the Master level.

“Don’t worry, just focus on managing the estate.”

That is why he couldn’t hold back the laughter that leaked out even as he read Deckarn extensively.

“Management of the estate.”

[The estate management mode is opened. It is possible to manage the land, the direction of growth, appointment, and tax management.]

Having bitten Decarne, Lokan immediately manipulated the estate management window.

It didn’t suit his temper to manage something that hurts his head, but he had gained the status of a nobleman in his previous life anyway, so he knew roughly how to operate it.

First of all, from the appointment.

After he proceeded with the breakthrough as he had contributed to Decarne, he did one more thing.

“Mine Development.”

It was the third mine development.

This time, instead of heading to bare ground, I specified a location I already knew. A place where abundant resources will pour out with just a few pickaxes.

Of course, the development cost was covered by private funds as the finances of the estate were insufficient. A definite income is waiting for you, and there is something that you cannot invest in about hundreds of gold.

Others would think he was doing crazy things in a state where the territory could be overtaken, but it was a boldness that could be seen as a Lokan.

‘I doubt it, but it doesn’t matter.’

Perhaps, if Lord Remington heard the news, he could guess that Lokan would not act as he intended, but there was nothing he could do.

When evaluated objectively, in order to catch Rokhan now, you need to have a master level of 300, but if it is a master level, it is difficult to see it even in the land of the Viscount or Count rather than a baron.

It is not for nothing that the grand modifier ‘Master’ is attached.

“Then shall we begin?”

However, Lokan didn’t even have the slightest thought to let him be vigilant. He was only three days old, but in the meantime, he was planning to upgrade the spec and press it properly.

not to be rude, not to dare resist or rebel.

So, even after the knight battle was over, he planned to swallow Remington’s estate without noise.

Rather, for after his victory, he started playing.

“The Third Hand.”

As Rokhan concentrated, a hand made of mana appeared from his chest.

A very delicate and feminine thing that is different from that of the rough and rough Lokan began to touch the small parts in front of her.

[You have crafted a crude watch.][You have crafted a crude bomb.][A crude mechanical mouse… … .]

Leveling up was good, but Lokan was aiming for one thing. mechanical engineering proficiency. Various mechanical devices that can be obtained through him.

The usefulness of mechanical engineering was widely known in previous lives, but in fact, there was a limit to what Lokan could raise.

Because his hands are so large and thick, it is difficult to do delicate work, which limits his ability to increase his skill level.

But with this skill, a third hand, the story was different.

Delicate work becomes possible just by imagining and concentrating, so complex and difficult work is possible.

Of course, the mental power and mana consumption would be considerable, but it was attractive enough to be able to go beyond his birth limit.

‘Even if it’s not gnome mechanical engineering, it should be usable enough.’

He had already used a mechanical mouse several times, but if he had more proficiency, he would have been able to deal with the enemies in more diverse and easier ways. Some engineering devices are one-time consumables, but some can be used continuously.

Some of them were embarrassing to use, but the effect was great.

[Mechanical Engineering Proficiency: 43.4%]

‘Up to 50% for now.’

If that was enough, it would have been possible to try to produce something.

‘Because you can make up for the lack of probability with money.’

Even if the success rate is 1%, if you make it a hundred or a thousand times, it won’t take you once.

The number of people entering Taimura increased significantly and the fun source of income called gamble was created, so the funds were very relaxed.

Nogada started.

* * *

Two days. As a result of repeated concentration of concentration so that his eyes fell out and his hair fell out, Lokan was able to achieve what he wanted.

[Mechanical Engineering Proficiency: 51.3%]

Finally, after reaching 50% proficiency, he succeeded in crafting something.

Even if you filled the craftable mastery, the success rate was so low that while making one, your mastery rose by 1.3%.The cost of the materials consumed in the process was not great, but Lokan smiled warmly nonetheless.

“The preparations are over.”

There are still more than half a day left until the promised time.

It’s a knight battle. To prevent cheating, it was held in a third place other than the Linai and Remington domains, so there was no need to prepare.

“Ah… … !”

So what do you do with the rest of your time? After thinking for a moment, Rokhan recalled something he had forgotten.

He left the rice cakes and couldn’t retrieve them because of the battle of Yeongji. It was the presence of a saint.

“Ugh… … .”

Lokan glanced at the website and looked at the reaction, scratching his head with an unknown expression.

The reaction is truly explosive. You can recover all health and receive various buffs for less than the price of a potion, so it has become like a must-have course before hunting.

In addition, the buff given by the saint has a special power, and the effect was far better than the buff that can be received by donating a large sum of money to the temple.

“It will be fine”

Lokan, who roughly grasped the situation, tore the scroll with a mutter that he did not know who he was talking to.

The destination is Kocomoro. It was the place where the saints stayed.

If it was originally, they would have already moved the area, but the size of the village is quite large and the number of users is so large that they do not have time to solve the village’s affairs, so they are still staying there.

Lokan listened for a moment and looked around the village to find out where it was, and immediately strode towards it.

He approached him, shoving the crowd and scattering the ropes, to receive the saint’s heals and buffs.

“Ah, who is it!”

“Ah, whoever cuts it… … .”

Naturally, the waiting users objected, but it soon became quiet. He knew right away who his opponent was.

Even if he was ignorant of his temper, a friend or colleague who was next to him forcibly covered his mouth and suppressed it, so no accident () occurred.

“What’s going on? If you want to be blessed… … !”

Wedge lover!

The action taken by Rokhan, who disregarded the order in front of the saint, who had a strong sign of difficulty because of the successive efforts he had put in, was surprising.

It’s all about preemptive work!

The saint, startled by the sharp blade of the ax that fell so violently that it could not be considered a joke, struggled and spewed out his strength, but he could not even balance his body and fell to the ground.

“I, that… … !”

“What the hell are you doing with this!”

“security! Guard!”

It was the users who first shouted before the startled saint could respond as if his heart would jump out of his mouth.

He thought that Rokhan’s sudden action was a shameful and sleazy act that “makes no one have what can’t be monopolized,” so he raised his voice and called out the guards.

However, contrary to their wishes, the guards did not appear.

It’s not because the attack didn’t succeed. It is because the conditions are not met.

“What is this! It’s not a waste to die alone, but I still have people I need to heal… … .”

“Treatment is bullshit. That would be your opinion. ‘Necromancer who wants to be a priest’ Mr.”
