Chapter 247: Lordan
My name is Luo Dan, I am sixteen years old this year, and I am an ordinary fourth-level swordsman who can no longer be ordinary.
My family was not bad, and I had a good upbringing.
My father was the viscount of Marinfando, the lord of a small city, and I was also the son-in-law of the family.
However, a Warcraft siege ruined it all.
No one thought that the one who came to attack the city this time turned out to be a saint-level demonic beast, and the country's army couldn't rescue it, so my hometown was destroyed.
My father did not run away, he chose the city to be in the people, the city was destroyed and the people died, he was an excellent city lord.
As for me, I had just received the university admission letter from the Whampoa Military Academy at that time, and I had already enrolled.
I never thought that such a thing would happen, a huge family, under the protection of countless personal soldiers, only my mother and a younger sister and a baby brother escaped, and the rest all died under the trampling of the monster.
Later, the state left me medals and knighthoods, but I am too young to participate in the construction of the city, and I am afraid that if I have no military achievements, I may not have a fief until thirty years later.
The state pension is not much, and I divided the money among the families of my father's old subordinates, and I only kept a small part of it.
Fortunately, I still have a house in Ice City, and the tuition fees have been paid.
But what I didn't expect was that my father owed a small debt before his death, and for my original family, that debt was my family's expenses for a year.
But this debt is very fatal when it comes out now, and I didn't expect that the guy who often calls his father a brother will come to the door to force the debt.
My house is worth a little money, but if I sell it, what will happen to my sister? What about mothers?
I could have lived in a free dormitory for the poor, but they can't!
I had no choice but to sell all my equipment and pay off some of the interest.
If the father is still alive, everyone will laugh and pass, but the father is dead, and the interest must be repaid, this is the nobleman......
Is it true that my family has no chance of rising again?
He did not completely force us to die, but gave us a way to live, and that was to give him the seal of our father.
Hehe, although the title cannot be transferred, there are too many things that can be operated in it.
As long as there is one person alive in our family, he will be the puppet city lord from now on, and all the future taxes of the city will be his, which is really a good calculation.
In any case, I can't give this to him.
Now there is another way, and that is the college competition.
Thanks to the awakening of the Immortal King, this time the academy is unprecedentedly grand, especially the freshman year, which has one more place than the previous two participants.
The rewards are also very generous, as long as whoever takes the first place, that person can get a count's title, as well as a set of gold-level equipment, and a bonus of 10 million copper.
The second reward became a viscount, the prize money was one million, and the equipment was silver-level equipment.
The third reward is the Baronial Title, the prize is one million, and the equipment is a silver level equipment.
As for the sophomore and junior years, their rewards are completely worse than those of the freshmen, and the first one has more rewards than our second one, and only the champion is taken.
In fact, in the past, everyone didn't care about the reward, what they cared about was honor and the future, but this time the reward was so rich that the royal family couldn't be indifferent.
The Immortal King has already spoken, whoever can defeat his disciple, he will send a set of diamond-level exercises and a saint-level one-time puppet, and will guarantee that he will not trouble that person. Whoever makes trouble with the winner, he will destroy him, what a domineering declaration. Of course, he doesn't care if he is a dead immortal king.
This promise, for a family or even a country, is completely a gold medal for avoiding death!
There are not a few people who are carried away by interests, and they don't care so much anymore, countless seniors have suppressed their cultivation for rewards, and the juniors have become freshmen......
If it weren't for the age limit, no more than 18 years old, I feel like some teachers would be going to participate.
The two people who participated in the previous competition have been determined and cannot be changed, and everyone is staring at this last extra place.
I lost and didn't get a place in the tournament.
Now this quota can be said to be a life-saving straw.
What can I do? I can only go on!
Fortunately, there are still ten days left, and I still have one more chance, and that is the Tomb of the Immortal King!
As long as I get the right weapon, or a panacea, I will definitely be able to participate in this academy competition.
I didn't give it my all when I competed before, and everyone came first in friendship.
But now, everyone's eyes are red, and I have to fight!
……
Ice City, in a private house.
A woman knits a sweater while reading the latest newspaper.
The woman's name was Kalia, and she was Lordan's mother.
Although her skin is well maintained, her expression is a little more lonely, and there are a few more silver threads on her head.
"Luo Dan, are you going to crusade against Warcraft again? Remember to pick some tasks with low difficulty. Kalia said softly.
When Luo Dan entered the Whampoa Military Academy, because he was an aristocrat, he had not yet won the top ten, so there was no subsidy from the academy.
If he wants to support his family, he can only go out to work on his own.
Although Kalia is a nobleman, she has not practiced anything, she is a standard lady, and she is better at embroidery and guqin.
The son didn't want her to show her face, so he put everything on his shoulders.
Originally, the Luo family was not very optimistic about this eldest son, after all, it was a little wooden, which was not a good thing for the nobles.
The second son is the best heir.
However, in the end, the male in the family was left with only a baby and this eldest son.
He is also unexpectedly responsible.
The daughter was not born to her, but to his wife, and Kalia still regarded it as her own.
"Hmm." Lordan paused and nodded.
"Brother, remember to come back early." A girl who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old waved her wand and said, "Cast the magic of courage on you!" ”
Luo Dan smiled, my sister can only use light magic at the first level, and she can't use bloodthirsty fanaticism or anything like that.
She's only going to know the most basic healing techniques.
You can heal ten people a day, which can be regarded as an income, a very meager income.
I also need a sum of money to send my sister to school.
"If only your runaway sister was here, I don't know where she has run away all these years, that child's personality is really uncomfortable." Kalia shook her head.
With a hot temper, he learned not the family swordsmanship but marksmanship, and his personality is the same as that of a boy, and he is greedy for money, and it will be difficult to marry in the future.
Luo Dan was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Mother, I'm leaving, the quilt is not folded, please help clean it up." ”
With that, Lordan walked out without looking back.
