made you rush back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the manor’s hall, Durant lowered his head, his voice full of guilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rein also stood with his head lowered to one side, Avril’s expression was somewhat distressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning everything from Vivian’s mouth, Luo De immediately set off back to the manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could reach halfway, new information was delivered to Frost Leaf Town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frost Bone Wasteland only had demolished towns, with no sign of the Lizardmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s my fault, please punish me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant was full of remorse, knelt down on one knee, with his head lowered even further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stand up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De waved his hand, \"It’s not related to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone was peaceful, without a hint of reproach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delayed intel gathering is quite normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one possesses the power of a prophet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant slowly stood up, his eyes flashing a hint of gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I returned to bring you with me to deal with those Lizardmen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De looked at the map,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the patrol team’s information, this is the perfect opportunity to counter the Lizardmen, something we must do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon learning the town was destroyed, Luo De had doubts in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had the patrol team repeatedly confirm one detail\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>— There was no corpse or remains in that town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made Luo De more certain that those Lizardmen were gathering power, forming a monster army.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After interrogating the lizard creature last time, Luo De knew those Lizardmen could enhance their power through flesh, or rather, create lizard creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now the town was destroyed, yet no corpses left behind, nor any human bones left after eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does this suggest?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It suggests that this flesh is their key material, all taken away by them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the target these Lizardmen are accumulating power against is naturally revenge on Black Pine Ridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Durant, how is the investigation I tasked you with?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De looked up and asked Durant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant immediately responded, \"The lynx people searched in the Icefield Mountain Range but found no traces of Lizardmen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only remnants of living evidence were found, as if they relocated their original camp.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The lynx people are going deeper into the Icefield Mountain Range for further search.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De nodded, speculating, \"These also prove that the Bloodscale Tribe is deliberately avoiding us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They know they can’t defeat us, intentionally avoiding Black Pine Ridge, letting the legion attack other towns in the west.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, should we eradicate them before they gather power?\" Durant asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De looked at the map, \"Before returning, I had Prophet Bai Shuang do a divination, and indeed our enemy is in this northwestern region.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have Frozen Bone Wasteland’s patrol team advance to search, make sure to find traces of those Lizardmen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De instructed, \"But don’t let the enemy notice, wait for our army.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is the army prepared?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to your instructions, it is already in wartime state, ready to set off at any moment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant responded seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, have the army set off west, once we get news, we immediately attack.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De instructed decisively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now both Frozen Bone Wasteland and Ice Blade Valley are in a lordless state, Luo De’s army can move freely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, my Baron!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their response was more resounding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell Lawrence, don’t hold back on supplies at this time,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De emphasized, \"All resources should be invested in the army.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was speaking, Luo De suddenly remembered something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Has the message been sent to the towns in the Ice Breath Hills in the west?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The message has been sent out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant’s voice was somewhat hesitant, \"But the specific location of the towns on Ice Breath Hills... none of us know.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can only let them endeavor to search, deliver the message as soon as possible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s unavoidable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De spoke with a hint of helplessness, \"The Desert is so vast, none of us have been to the northwest, we can only do our best.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De waved his hand, \"Go prepare now, we’ll depart after a while.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, my Baron.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Durant and Rein bowed and exited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril walked over and sat beside Luo De, taking Luo De’s hand,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Going to deal with those Lizardmen again, this time, can I go with you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De held Avril’s hand in return, gently squeezing, feeling the softness in his palm, smiled and reassured,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry, even if we wipe out their nests, I won’t bring back female Lizardmen, I’m not interested in them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril froze for a moment, then burst out laughing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you actually found them attractive, then it must be the fault of me and my sister.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De couldn’t help but laugh too, reaching out to pinch Avril’s cheek,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How does the crab taste?\" Luo De asked casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve never had such delicious crab before!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril’s voice was bright, laced with excitement,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Absolutely delicious!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Freshly steamed crab meat is soft and fragrant, I ate a big bowl.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril gestured with her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Glad you liked it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De watched Avril’s expression, feeling happy himself too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The recipient’s joy can make the giver feel fulfilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I brought some back, all for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, dear!\" Avril happily kissed Luo De’s cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Remember to handle the giant crabs’ innards after you finish eating.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De instructed Avril, \"They’re already stored in the ice cellar, make sure to deal with them promptly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The task of configuring the ice-resistant potion also falls on you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Avril seriously promised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo De jokingly smiled, \"The gratitude you previously promised, I can’t temporarily receive, just work a bit more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",936,"2026-05-30T15:19:45.195Z","2026-06-01T04:31:34.172Z",1,"novelbin.me","f30664d1e3eed9b3d3de7f56959e46da5b3b35635672ad7eca30a9a896a1ae65","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-404","farming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-chapter-402",776,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffarming-with-entries-from-lord-to-emperor-cover.jpg"]
