Before he knew it, the month had come to an end, and a new month had arrived. As the new month began, a caravan appeared on the road leading from Loren City to Eagle Ridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, there was no road here initially.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after Thor traveled the route a few times with his people, a path was gradually formed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos Assad was slowly advancing along this path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There weren’t many people with him at the moment, only around forty to fifty, and there were only a dozen knights. However, several carriages were loaded, the wheel tracks pressing deep into the ground, clearly carrying heavy cargo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the front of the caravan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos Assad rode a snow-white steed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, in one more day, we should be able to reach Eagle Ridge,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lum said respectfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speed up the pace. Let’s try to reach Eagle Ridge by noon tomorrow. I believe my friend will give us the best reception.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos Assad spoke with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after his words fell, there was a hint of worry and anxiety deep in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was not only about his situation but also the apprehension regarding Eagle Territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day, because he envisioned a better future with that figure, his heart was stirred, deciding to sell Molten Fire Oil to the descendant of Dressrosa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as time went by,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he couldn’t help but have doubts about the words spoken by that member of the Dressrosa Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dressrosa Family was even weaker than their Assad Family. Would they really offer such substantial support to a descendant?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That involved a Great Knight and dozens of Official Knights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even for a Count, such power was significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least, in his understanding, his second brother had also chosen to be a Pioneer Knight and had earned their father’s favor, yet the resources he received were only about twenty Official Knights and a hundred or so Apprentice Knights, with slightly more Gold Coins, totaling only ten thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words from Thor Dressrosa made him somewhat skeptical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, after a moment of hesitation, Rajos still decided to come and see for himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, he wanted to confirm things one last time; on the other, he wanted to see what Thor Dressrosa’s territory had become, and whether it could truly help him achieve his ideas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, he needed to consider other paths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps, I could try other territories!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But my power is still too weak, and I don’t have many items that could impress those lords, so this approach is quite risky.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos muttered to himself, falling into contemplation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The time passed quickly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and in the blink of an eye, a day had passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the noonday sun rose,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos and his group finally saw the Maine River Valley ahead, as well as the farms and buildings scattered around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment he saw Eagle Ridge, Rajos’s eyes widened instantly, even subconsciously rubbing them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the territory that appeared before him completely exceeded his expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of the imagined chaos and desolation, it was neat and unified, with fields of wheat dotting the horizon, and a huge castle standing tall and majestic in the center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not in line with what a new lord’s territory should look like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Rajos hadn’t confirmed this was indeed Eagle Ridge, he might have thought he had arrived at a Baron’s territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My God, he... he actually built it like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A castle, even a castle is here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos spoke with disbelief, his heart filled with shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About Thor Dressrosa, Rajos certainly did some follow-up. He knew that Thor came to become a Pioneer Knight, arriving less than four months ago at most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet this scene before him in the territory, even less than four months, to say nothing of two to three years for a typical Pioneer Lord, might not even yield such results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his shock, a touch of delight inevitably spread across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at that moment, in the distance, several knights were quickly riding toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing who was coming, Rajos’s smile grew even brighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly dismounted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the figures in the distance soon arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They dismounted as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thor quickly came forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And embraced Rajos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Welcome, my friend!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gentle voice sounded, accompanied by a sincere smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve been looking forward to seeing you, my friend!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To be honest, my friend, you really surprised me. It’s only been four months, and your territory is already of this scale.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos said with emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks to the protection of the Goddess of Life, everything went smoothly for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come, I’ve prepared a lavish dinner for you, my friend. You must be hungry by now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thor nodded with a smile and invited Rajos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s my honor,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos nodded with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Thor led Rajos and his entourage into the territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And once inside the territory, Rajos was undoubtedly even more astonished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole territory was even better than he had imagined, with clean and spacious roads, filled with voices brimming with smiles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rajos couldn’t see the numbness, despair, or lifelessness found in other territories’ people. All he saw was hope, anticipation, and veneration for Thor Dressrosa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was simply incredible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that these people were slaves just months ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When did slaves become so lively?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, his gaze toward Thor changed once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when he reached the castle, his eyes flashed with shock again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knights walked by one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Astonishingly, many were Official Knights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Thor had told him that he had over forty Official Knights, he couldn’t help but be awestruck upon seeing so many Official Knights in person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were Official Knights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With its current scale, Eagle Ridge was truly comparable to any Baron’s territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In some respects, it was even better developed than some Baron’s territories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was simply unimaginable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With shock, his smile grew even brighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the better Eagle Ridge developed, the better it was for him, without a doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His previous apprehension, nervousness, and unease had completely vanished by this point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he felt a sense of anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An anticipation for the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Eagle Ridge’s current scale, he was almost certain that Thor could undoubtedly become a Baron. And relying on a Baron’s territory, his trade could truly flourish.\u003C\u002Fp>",1062,"2026-06-02T06:24:06.806Z",1,"novelbin.me","485d6adea2205504b361ce0d45626750fe2d7c94fd757115f7ef398380d8269e","fantasy-lord-beginning-with-daily-intelligence-chapter-279","fantasy-lord-beginning-with-daily-intelligence-chapter-40",503,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffantasy-lord-beginning-with-daily-intelligence-cover.jpg"]
