Global Lords: I Have Information System

Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Let Marie Follow Me

As a combat-type hero, Wenresa is not suitable for being solely responsible for logistics and command.

Therefore, a logistics hero is particularly important for the development of the territory!

Zong Shen has already understood that in this otherworld, if you want to develop, you cannot rely solely on the Lord himself, but you need a large number of heroic-level talents.

These talents are like nodes linked together, revolving around the Lord as a center, developing rapidly like a snowball, and at the same time helping the Lord handle various aspects of the territory.

When the territory expands or more cities are established, the great heroes under me will be able to take charge and recruit other heroes independently, thus truly forming a gradually increasing stable command hierarchy.

As the saying goes, a single tree does not make a forest; relying solely on the Lord or a hero with dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of command values cannot establish a large and stable power.

”Hey, alright, today I’ll be bothering Brother Mars then.”

Zong Shen’s goal was very clear in his heart. Thinking of this, he chuckled and directly changed to calling him Brother instead of Master Mars.

”No bother, no bother, everyone, please follow me.”

Master Mars’s plump face immediately squeezed into blossoming wrinkles, smiling very brightly.

With that said, he led the way towards the village. It wasn’t far from this entrance to a beautifully arranged garden villa.

The low gate wall was planted with pink and white morning glories. Just as Master Mars arrived at the gate, a servant opened the iron gate automatically.

The yard was spacious, with a layer of stone slabs laid on the ground, appearing very neat.

Various flowers were planted along the walls on both sides, and Marie was quietly watering the plants by the flower bed with a watering can in hand.

When Master Mars led Zong Shen and a group of broad-shouldered Wolf Cavalry into the yard, Marie turned and saw Zong Shen.

”Big brother...”

”Hello, Marie!”

Zong Shen greeted her with a smile.

The Wolf Cavalry dismounted, but there was nowhere to accommodate the Giant Wolves, and none of Master Mars’s servants dared to come forward to host them.

Eventually, Zong Shen pointed to a corner of the yard, directing the Wolf Cavalry to settle the Giant Wolves there.

These Giant Wolves were fierce wild beasts on the battlefield, ready to devour anyone.

However, in front of Zong Shen and the Wolf Cavalry, they were very obedient, with strong self-discipline. Like the soldiers, these Giant Wolves also underwent rigorous training.

After settling the Giant Wolves, Master Mars called over a clever young man, instructing him to procure the supplies Zong Shen needed; Master Mars himself could provide the dried meat, being the leading cattle raiser in the village.

Afterward, the twelve Wolf Cavalry followed Zong Shen, Master Mars, and Marie into the mansion.

This mansion was large, with only two parts on the entire first floor: the living room and the dining room.

Especially the dining room, which was extraordinarily luxuriously decorated, with three rows of large wine cabinets placed against the wall and a central enormous long wooden table that could accommodate twenty to thirty people for dining together, with the extended tabletop able to hold plenty of food.

The living room was equally luxurious, with large floor-to-ceiling windows decorated with blue glass and the floors covered with soft and exquisite carpets.

A circle of cushioned chairs was placed facing the floor-to-ceiling windows, all the cushions hand-embroidered with exquisite golden thread patterns.

”Tsk tsk, does a village’s wealthy landlord live this lavishly?”

Zong Shen thought secretly, if compared, his own life as a Lord was quite plain indeed.

The daily pace was too busy, with immense pressure from development and exploration. There were not yet enough heroic-level talents in the territory to help Zong Shen with affairs.

As the territory develops, this problem will eventually gradually be resolved.

It was not yet five in the afternoon, too early for dinner. Master Mars led them to the living room and they sat in order of priority on the cushioned chairs.

Zong Shen and he sat in the main seats, Marie sat next to them, and the Wolf Riders sat on both sides.

”In just two days, my lord has become even more handsome and mighty!”

”If I were ten years younger, I’d surely abandon my family business to follow you in pursuit of dreams.”

”It’s a pity that Marie is a girl, if she were a boy, it would be great, she could follow you.”

Master Mars started flattering Zong Shen, but his eyes kept darting towards those sturdy Wolf Cavalry.

Listening to his compliments, Zong Shen could already guess why this man was so enthusiastic.

He mentioned Marie, so Zong Shen continued along his line.

”No, no, no, Brother Mars, girls are better than boys; as the saying goes, women hold up half the sky.”

”My territory needs girls like Marie to manage the logistics work.”

”Let Marie follow me. It’s really not fair to let her stay in Sitanos as a village woman all her life; everyone has the right to pursue their future.”

Zong Shen said directly, not hiding his purpose, which caught Mars a bit off guard.

”My lord..., I think Marie’s abilities are limited, I’m afraid she can’t help you and will only become a burden...”

Zong Shen turned to look at him, still maintaining a smile.

”Brother Mars, no need to rush in rejecting. If Marie joins my ranks, then we’ll be one family in the future.”

”If any trouble arises, my subordinates and I can entirely relieve you of your worries.”

Upon hearing this, the Wolf Cavalry sitting on both sides all raised their heads to look at Master Mars.

This made him start reconsidering in his mind.

Master Mars’s father was once an impoverished noble of Boss Bang’s new nobility, who due to local noble struggles was exiled, and thus settled in Sitanos Village.

If he sent Marie to Bang City, she might suffer damage from those arrogant nouveau riche.

Listening to Zong Shen, Marie’s eyes were also filled with hopeful radiance.

Since witnessing Zong Shen lead warriors to defeat Fierce Bandit Calier and his bandits, her heart began craving the world outside.

She was fed up with the calm to the point of cowardly life in Sitanos Village; she also longed to be strong, refusing to remain a helpless lamb.

”No... my lord, that’s not what I meant.”

”Marie is my most beloved little daughter after all.”

”...”

At this moment, Marie suddenly grabbed Mars’s arm.

”Father, I want to follow Big Brother, I can’t live the life of a frog at the bottom of the well in Sitanos Village forever..”

”The history of this land is forever filled with war; I want to find my own path.”

She said firmly, her voice still youthful, but her expression was unprecedentedly determined.
