Chapter 278: The Speed of Bay Territory
The scorching sun blazed in the sky.
Cool breezes gently blew, stirring the thoughts of the soldiers.
Brown and Lin Qi, sitting in the carriage, were still in a daze.
They watched their soldiers, now equipped with brand-new enchanted weapons and armor, as Matthew's words echoed in their minds:
"Given the urgency of the situation, it's not suitable for everyone to make another trip. Let the soldiers gear up; the upcoming battle will be fierce."
Thus, enchanted equipment worth nearly 200,000 gold coins was placed on the soldiers.
Seeing the bright smiles on their faces, Lin Qi asked Brown earnestly:
"Is Lord Matthew always this generous?"
Recalling some chilling memories, Brown shook his head with a bitter smile, hesitated briefly, and ultimately chose to reveal the truth:
"Lord Matthew is ruthless towards his enemies and never shows mercy."
"But he's always willing to share profits with his partners so everyone can prosper together."
"As long as no one breaks the rules, otherwise, they'll face serious consequences!"
Those foolish noble heirs expelled and "robbed" in the Misty Underground Ruins were the best proof of this.
Hearing Brown's assessment, Lin Qi relaxed a bit. He glanced at the sturdy Carlisle family soldiers behind Brown, feeling a slight sense of admiration before casually saying:
"Lord Brown, I have some channels for selling potions, but when it comes to enchanted equipment, I'm at my limits..."
Brown smiled knowingly, understanding Lin Qi's implied offer, and nodded in agreement:
"No problem; there's gold for everyone to earn. Living well together is what's most important."
The two shared a knowing smile, all in unspoken understanding.
However, images of Macaron's delighted and expectant expression kept flashing in their minds.
What was he up to?
What did Lord Matthew want with him?
Before they could figure it out, the soldiers leading the way suddenly called for a halt.
The two then realized they had followed Bay Territory's soldiers to the banks of the Silvermoon River.
