Chapter 197 What? Are you an Earth Knight?

Stepping into the territory, Michael and Cecil couldn't help but be even more shocked by the scene after scene. The entire territory was huge and well-organized. At this moment, it seemed not much inferior to the small town of Dressrosa.

Slaves, freedmen, and knights all had big smiles on their faces. Along the way, they also reached many territories in the Northland Province, but they had never seen anything like this.

The two looked at each other, feeling a little ups and downs in their hearts.

Of course, Thor didn't care about this at this moment and led everyone into the castle.

Then a grand banquet started.

And when Michael saw Carter, he couldn't help but be shocked again. At this moment, Carter had actually reached the level of a great knight.

Even Michael, the eighteen-year-old knight, couldn't sit still.

"My Goddess, this is a miracle. How did you do it Thor?"

Looking at Carter, Michael looked at Thor again, speaking in disbelief.

As the person in charge of the Young Eagle Knights, he was naturally aware of Carter's talent. Without Thor's support and sufficient diligence, it would have been impossible for him to gather the seeds of life and become a trainee knight at the age of eighteen.

But now he saw something. The eighteen-year-old Carter had become a great knight.

Even he couldn't help but feel deeply shocked by such a talent.

He couldn't imagine how Thor did it.

"Uncle Michael, it's not how I did it, but Carter was diligent enough and courageous enough."

Thor chuckled and spoke.

"this!"

Hearing Thor's answer, Michael subconsciously opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Diligence, courage.

Well, he admitted that Carter had.

But knight's practice requires more than just these, or these occupy a very small proportion, most of which are talents and opportunities.

Enough talent, even if you are not diligent enough, is enough to solve many problems.

"Uncle Michael, please come and help me this time. It's really annoying."

"I'll give you a toast!"

"And Uncle Cecil!"

Thor smiled and raised his glass.

"Master Thor has spoken harshly."

Michael reacted and quickly raised his glass, and Cecil next to him did the same.

"That's not an exaggeration!"

"The territory may encounter a lot of things next."

Thor smiled and shook his head.

Then they started discussing with the two of them.

Compared to himself, the two of them undoubtedly have a lot more experience, especially Michael, as his father's right-hand man and the leader of the Knights of Dressrosa, Michael has experienced enough things.

Facing the next situation, there are undoubtedly more ideas.

Thor will naturally make good use of this.

He is not blindly arrogant.

"Are you saying that you have already occupied more than 80% of the large mineral deposits in the entire west, as well as the output of the Danube River?"

Listening to Thor's words, Michael and Cecil couldn't help being shocked. Michael couldn't help but stand up as he listened.

"Yes, it should even be more than that. The output of the Danube River has probably exceeded 80%. The known large minerals should have reached more than 75%. Except for a few remote territories, they have not intervened. Other places It’s basically under control.”

Thor nodded. During this period of time, he further understood the entire situation. Compared with when he left, the scope of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce's control has been greatly improved.

Even though this month's income has not yet been calculated, it can be expected to be a terrifying figure.

"this!"

Hearing Thor's affirmative words, Michael and Cecil looked at each other with shock in their eyes.

Although they already knew something about it when they came.

But this kind of understanding is only limited to the fact that Thor left and occupied some mines with the help of those powerful noble descendants, but they never thought that "these" would reach this level.

They naturally understand the situation in the northern province, and they also know that the best part of the northern province is in the western region.

As a result, good guy, now our own Master Thor has directly taken all the resources in the west.

At this moment, they finally understood why Thor asked for help.

If this guy didn't ask for help, Michael and Cecil felt that their young master would most likely be forcibly torn apart by those angry and powerful heirs of nobles.

This is not just one or two families, but I don’t know how many.

Most of them are the descendants of families that are more powerful than the previous Dressrosa family.

Among them is someone who is extremely famous among the Marquis family.

After being shocked, both Michael and Cecil couldn't help but fell into slight silence.

The complexity of the matter was greater than they imagined, and even they had to reconsider.

Thor didn't bother either.

Instead, he waited quietly.

Until a moment later.

Michael then spoke slowly.

"Master Thor, if nothing unexpected happens, there is a high probability that within one or two months, those powerful noble heirs will return. With our current strength, even with us, we may not be able to stop them."

"Can I see the current scope of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce?"

The words came out, and Michael looked at Thor.

"Of course you can!"

"Uncle Michael, Uncle Cecil, let's go to the study!"

Thor smiled and nodded.

The two did not refuse.

The three of them left the restaurant and went to Thor's study.

Entering the study.

A maid had quickly spread out a brand new map.

This was not a map of the Eagle Territory, but a map of the northern province.

It was just that the West and the Eagle Territory were marked at this moment.

When they saw this map, Michael and Cheshire could not help but look at each other, and their hearts jumped. They had already felt extremely surprised when they heard Thor's words just now.

Seeing the map at this moment, they realized how big Thor's hand was.

Most of the entire western region has entered Thor's jurisdiction, and even the west and the east are almost connected together.

"Uncle Michael, Uncle Cheshire, we currently have more than 45 mines, here, here, and here!"

Thor spoke to the two and further explained the situation.

"Master Thor, how many Great Knights and Earth Knights are there in the Eagle Chamber of Commerce that you are in charge of?"

Suddenly, Cheshire spoke, looking at Thor.

"At present, there should be only four Earth Knights, in addition to the two uncles and Uncle Marshall."

Looking at the two, Thor hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

"Four?"

The two looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their expressions.

They didn't expect that Thor would have four Earth Knights after excluding them and Marshall who was still breaking through.

This is not cabbage.

It's an Earth Knight.

Even an ordinary Earl family would probably find it difficult to come up with four Earth Knights.

At this moment, Thor actually has four Earth Knights, how can they not feel surprised.

"Yes, I have broken through to the Earth Knight, plus Ryan, the followers of the Anubi family, and the followers of Lajos Assad, there are a total of four."

Thor nodded and explained slowly.

This time in the northern province, Isabel gave her Earth Knight follower to Joz Anubi, and Lajos Asad also got the support of an Earth Knight from his family. With these two people, there are indeed four people at this moment.

"Is that so!"

"What, Master Thor?"

Michael nodded and subconsciously wanted to speak next, but when he was halfway through his words, he suddenly reacted and looked at Thor in an instant, with an expression of disbelief.

The same was true for Chesil next to him.

Goddess of Life, what did they just hear?

In the face of the shock of the two, Thor was also very direct, and a majestic source of life burst out from his body.

Layers of ice began to spread under his feet.

The icy breath spread.

Even Michael, who was at the peak of the Earth Knight and the late Earth Knight, and Chesil could not help but shudder instinctively.

The figure also subconsciously retreated.

It was just in this kind of retreat that they also reacted.

The shock on their faces was almost difficult to conceal.

Earth Knight, this is actually an Earth Knight.

How old is Thor at this moment? At most, he is twenty years old. Even in the history of the Tulip Kingdom, there have been only a few Earth Knights of twenty years old. In the current Tulip Kingdom, it seems that they are only inferior to that prince. Even the heirs of the three dukes of the same age cannot be compared with Thor at all.

Even in the empire, such talent is dazzling enough.

Think about it again, when did they break through the Earth Knight.

And it seems that they thought of Thor's words just now. The two looked at each other, and the shock in their hearts became stronger.

"Master Thor, you, you mean that Ryan also broke through."

Chesir pursed his lips and spoke with a dry mouth.

"Yes, Ryan broke through with me."

Thor nodded.

And facing this answer, the two could not help but remain silent again.

For a moment, they didn't know how to speak or how to react.

Two earth knights under the age of twenty, such a thing, even if they saw it with their own eyes, made them feel like they were in a dream.

"Master Thor!"

After a moment, Michael couldn't help but smile bitterly, and then shook his head.

And Cheshire couldn't help but fall into silence again.

Facing the shock of the two, Thor naturally knew what was going on.

But he couldn't say anything about this.

He and Ryan were able to break through so quickly, on the one hand, talent, on the other hand, it was the credit of Shenxu. Otherwise, if they wanted to break through the earth knight, it would take three to five years.

There is still a big difference between an earth knight of 25 years old and an earth knight of less than 20 years old.

"Huh!"

"I'm really sorry, Master Thor, I'm too shocked."

"Can you tell me how many great knights there are?!"

In silence, Michael finally calmed down his fluctuating heart, took a deep breath, and looked at Thor again.

"There should be 54 Grand Knights at present, of which 32 are from the Eagle Territory, and the remaining 22 are from the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce."

Thor pondered for a moment, then gave his answer.

During this period, due to Thor's previous arrangements, the number of Grand Knights of the Eagle Chamber of Commerce has increased significantly.

"32?"

Michael took a deep breath, but he was not too shocked this time.

There are already four Earth Knights, so thirty-two Great Knights are normal.

Well, normal is a ghost.

It's just that they are now numb with shock.

"Master Thor, that is to say, there are six Earth Knights including us. If Marshall can break through, there will be seven Earth Knights and thirty-two Great Knights."

Michael forced himself to suppress the ups and downs in his heart, his eyes flickered, and he spoke slowly.

"Yes!"

Thor nodded, and looked at Michael with some doubts.

"Seven Earth Knights, the strength is enough, Master Thor, I think it's better to take the initiative instead of waiting for them to counterattack."

Facing Thor's doubts, Michael slowly spoke and said the idea that just came to his mind.

As for his considerations along the way, he had thrown them behind his head at this moment.

Those ideas were all based on the fact that Thor's strength was not enough.

Now it is completely unnecessary.

If this kind of strength is not enough, then no strength is enough.

"Take the initiative?"

Thor's eyebrows raised, his expression was full of doubt.

"Yes, take the initiative!"

"In one or two months at most, those powerful noble descendants should return. Master Thor, what do you think the first thing those powerful noble descendants will do when they return?"

Michael's eyes flickered, and he spoke slowly.

"What to do?"

"They should make trouble for me, or find an excuse, or even no excuse, to directly attack the places I occupy and take back what originally belonged to them."

Thor thought for a moment and spoke slowly.

"Yes, they will want to take back what belongs to them."

"They may even launch a pioneering war. Marquis Lehman doesn't manage the Northern Province very much. When there is one, there will be a second and a third."

"Even if you are strong enough, you will gradually be exhausted."

Michael nodded, speaking with caution.
