Global Lords: I Have Information System-Chapter 488 - 357: Deep Father-Daughter Affection, Setting Out for Boss Bang

Chapter 488: Chapter 357: Deep Father-Daughter Affection, Setting Out for Boss Bang

Zong Shen coughed forcefully through the grille.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Master Mars!"

This finally caught the attention of Master Mars and those servants.

They all turned their heads, looking outside the grille.

"Oh? Lord Zong?"

"Why have you come?"

Master Mars said in surprise, casually letting go of the beauty beside him and stepping to the door, personally opening the manor’s gate.

His courtyard was spacious enough, and Zong Shen rode Pigsy straight in, bringing Luna and the cavalry squad into the yard.

Immediately, Zong Shen nimbly flipped off Pigsy’s back, looked playfully at Master Mars, then glanced at the beauty not far away.

"Ah, it seems during the time Marie hasn’t been around, Master Mars, your life has become more and more comfortable!"

Zong Shen teased slowly, emphasizing the word "comfortable."

Master Mars awkwardly scratched his head, smiling obsequiously, and began to change the topic.

"What brings you here this time, my lord?"

"Do you need to purchase some supplies?"

Hearing this, Zong Shen waved his hand and took out the Five-pointed Star Token that Master Mars had given him before from the Storage Grid.

"I’m about to set off for Boss Bang, just in time to help you retrieve your father’s inheritance."

"I’ll find a way to enter Evans Manor."

That’s right, this was the task Master Mars had left with Zong Shen after sending Marie to the territory before.

[Task: Retrieve Father’s Inheritance]

[Requirement: Enter the Magic Secret Room in the manor’s wine cellar to retrieve the inheritance left by Master Mars’s father]

[Reward: [Avalon Knight Trial Badge ×1], half of the retrieved property]

The Five-pointed Star Token is the key to opening the Magic Secret Room.

Previously, due to the Burrow Challenge, Zong Shen couldn’t conveniently go to Boss Bang, but this time, he could complete it while going there.

Hearing Zong Shen say this, Master Mars was also a bit excited.

The inheritance was not a small amount, but the difficulty of infiltrating Evans Manor was also not low.

Previously, Mars had just briefly mentioned it and did not explain in detail.

Now, with Zong Shen about to depart, Master Mars couldn’t care about embarrassment anymore and pulled Zong Shen into the living room.

After Zong Shen took a seat, Master Mars whispered.

"My lord, this Evans wields great power in Boss Bang."

"He has a private force of sixty mercenaries in his manor."

"These private mercenaries have the strength equivalent to Tier 2 Kingdom Warriors."

"They usually act as his thugs, guarding the manor at night."

After listening to his words, Zong Shen not only didn’t feel troubled but felt delighted.

The fact that someone named Evans hired a considerable private mercenary group to guard the manor

indicated that there must be a substantial amount of wealth stored in his manor.

Since he needed to infiltrate the manor anyway, Zong Shen wouldn’t mind taking advantage of the situation.

The saying goes, ’A horse that doesn’t graze at night won’t get fat,’ and the wealth of the indigenous people is the lord’s resources.

Whether he could get his hands on it depends on one’s abilities.

If one is strong enough to raid the Kingdom Treasure Vault in the Main Imperial City, that’s also a skill.

"Rest assured, Master Mars."

"Leave this matter to me."

"Regarding the territory’s pasture development, please take care of it."

Zong Shen patted his chest, giving Master Mars reassurance.

He also reminded him not to forget about their cooperation due to feminine charm.

Master Mars was a smart man. Hearing Zong Shen’s words, he nodded eagerly.

"Rest assured, my lord, I haven’t forgotten. I’ll set off first thing in the morning."

"I’ve also informed a few traveling merchant friends about your territory’s location."

"I believe very soon, a merchant team will incorporate your territory into the trade route."

Hearing Master Mars say this, Zong Shen felt relieved.

"Since Master Mars has everything in mind,"

"I can be assured then."

"I’ll set off now with my men."

He got up, exchanged pleasantries with Master Mars, and then left.

Marie might not even know that she has gained another mother.

Thinking of this, Zong Shen couldn’t help but smirk and gently shake his head.

He elegantly leaped up, mounting Pigsy’s neck.

Waving at Master Mars, who had just walked out of the house.

"Let’s continue our journey now."

"Follow the main road in the village eastward; beyond the village is that dirt road."

Zong Shen turned and quietly whispered to his warriors.

Then he left Master Mars’s manor.

The other party also waved goodbye, watching them leave.

Zong Shen rode Pigsy, leading the way, and there were plenty of passersby along the route.

As the contact between the lord and the indigenous people increased, villages like Sitanos will become a fusion point.

With the participation and intervention of the lord, it will become more and more prosperous.

Including those lords who descended near Bang City, they would probably enter Bang City at the first opportunity, seeking opportunities and obtaining supplies.

Continuing along the main road in the village for another five or six minutes, Zong Shen and his team exited the village from the east.

In front of them was a clear dirt road.

The road was barren and extremely solid.

Following this dirt road allowed one to see far into the distance.

This journey was heading east, covering seven to eight hundred kilometers.

It required crossing three to four regional areas at least.

There were no barriers between the regions, and it wasn’t hard for neighboring regions to achieve cross-regional exchanges.

Lords descended on regional boundaries could easily traverse regions.

For Zong Shen, this was the farthest destination he was headed to so far.

"Full speed ahead!"

"Target Boss Bang!"

Zong Shen waved his hand, speaking with great enthusiasm.

Looking at the unremarkable dirt road, he seemed to see a broader world.

He patted Pigsy’s neck, and Pigsy beneath him grew excited.

Rushing forward without delay!

The warhorses behind surged, kicking up a great cloud of dust.

...

Meanwhile, in the mountainous region north of Zong Shen Territory.

On a winding northward path over a hundred kilometers away from Zong Shen Territory.

Raven Saintess Shafuri was steadily riding a Grassland Horse along the path.

This area was deep within the northern mountains, full of hills of various heights from south to north.

The terrain was quite complex, including forests, valleys, streams, and various caves.

The surrounding trees were lush, with ancient vines thick as arms hanging down on both sides of the path.

In such mountainous forests, fierce wild beasts and strange creatures often dwell.

However, Shafuri appeared calm; in a few more hours, she would reach a secret Church stronghold in the mountains.

Then, riding the Frost Raven to the teleportation point, she expected to return to Cold Crow Valley by the afternoon.

This mountainous range was vast and served as the border area between the Nord Kingdom and Avalon Kingdom.

This entire mountainous area stretched for two or three thousand kilometers and was a buffer zone between the two kingdoms, a classic area beyond either’s control.

It had been preliminarily explored by the kingdom’s reconnaissance teams, with no valuable resources found, hence no kingdom forces intervened here.

It contained no villages or Bang City, categorizing it as a true no-man’s-land.

Similar no-man’s-lands existed all over the continent and the scale here was only considered medium to small.

After all, this world was vast.

A Giant City could govern an area of several thousand kilometers.

Setting up a secret Calamity Raven Church stronghold here was quite apt.

While riding, Shafuri reflected on this operation internally.

"Curse it, I was still too careless!"

"I can’t believe someone managed to infiltrate the village and steal half of the Magic Array materials."

"And the timing, it was so close."

"Right between the Expeditionary Army’s bombardment of the dome and the initiation of the full attack."

"During that period, everyone’s attention wasn’t on the village!"
