Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 32: Chapter 32: Extra Update – Happy Mid-Autumn Festival

When Su Li stepped out of the tent, the entire camp erupted, with countless knights cheering and applauding him excitedly.

Looking at his youthful figure, everyone felt he was simply radiant, like a rising sun, and everyone’s eyes were filled with dreams for the future.

Is there still anyone who doubts whether Young Master Suli can help the knights advance in rank?

Yesterday, all the knights with the fire attribute gained tremendously, with each of them breaking through a tier, including Frederick, a Middle Tier Elite Knight. His foundation was solid, and he was already on the verge of a breakthrough, and now, with the boost from the Fire Rabbit meat, the breakthrough was seamless.

And without a doubt, the biggest beneficiary was Knight Stern, the second son of Chief Knight Connor, who was at the pinnacle of a formal knight. The effect of the Fire Rabbit meat was already significant for tiers below Elite Knights, and since he was on the edge of a breakthrough, he directly advanced to an Initial Tier Elite Knight.

This directly crossed a major tier, and the motivational effect brought by it was unparalleled.

At this moment, all the knights dispelled their confusion, anxiety, and tension about the future. Instead, they were filled with an unwavering belief and a full vision of hope!

Anyone wanting to shake Young Master Suli’s leadership is against the future prospects of all the knights.

Hindering one’s prospects is like killing one’s parents. Without Suli’s prompting, these knights would rush in themselves and cut the opposition into pieces.

Anyone daring to conspire and shake Young Master Suli’s leadership would face immediate retribution with a knight drawing their sword to decapitate the opponent, removing any threat to Suli.

This situation finally allowed Su Li to breathe a sigh of relief, having managed to muddle through the rumors about helping knights break through!

In the short term, the knights shouldn’t question this matter. He can lie back carefree for a while.

Another major stress he previously faced now seems resolved quite effortlessly.

His greatest previous worry was undoubtedly the instability of his leadership position. After all, this is a realm with extraordinary abilities, where individual power can significantly influence a war’s outcome.

Though not naive enough to think politics is merely a brutish clash of forces, he’s always worried about one issue: without the backing of the Bauhinia Earl’s Territory, how could he, an Apprentice Knight, lead stronger knights, and by what means could he make these powerful knights obey a weaker command?

He’s no political amateur, but that’s not to say no fools exist among other knights. What if a knight suddenly thought that only the strong should lead and questioned why a powerful Elite Knight should follow orders from an Apprentice Knight kid, and then initiated a rebellion—how would he handle that?

Once reaching the Border Prince’s Territory, he wouldn’t have the Bauhinia Earl’s Territory as his backbone. The collapse of many local powers isn’t just due to constant warfare, but also internal rebellions.

Su Li previously worried whether a rebellion might erupt after passing through the Thorny River Valley, threatening his head.

Yet now, this seems a minuscule possibility.

Politics isn’t the domain of mere brute force but rather the fair distribution and combination of interests.

Whoever can bring more benefits to more people will receive more support.

Even Knight Oerstein doesn’t have Suli’s prestige at this moment. Should he attempt to imprison and replace Suli, he would surely face opposition, with knights devising ways to secretly rescue Suli in resistance to Oerstein.

Of course, Knight Oerstein wouldn’t harbor such thoughts. Being a devotee of the Sun Goddess, exceptionally talented, wise, and rational.

Given his strength, if he desired a territory, any Count or Duke could immediately appoint him as a Kingdom Knight, granting him a fertile estate as a fief; he has no need to venture into the impoverished and barren border of the Border Prince’s Territory to seize a desolate land.

He knows well what he seeks: opportunities to grow stronger, breakthrough, and prove himself superior to Ouldred!

Amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the knights, Su Li felt relaxed, pleasantly opening the [Daily Intelligence] system to review once more. Earlier, when Hilude left, he lay back on the bed, savoring relaxation, successfully triggering another day’s intelligence update.

[Your strong intent to lie flat has enhanced the timeline, granting you the [Prophet of Destiny] ability while reclining back.]

[Due to your state of repose, today’s prophetic messages have been updated.]

[1: 200 kilometers right of the Giant Snake River Mouth lies the Blood Horn Cliff, hiding a Half-Beastman Clawless Tribe, where within three days, three terrifying Bloodthirsty Four-armed Barbarian Bulls will be born. If not swiftly exterminated, merchant trade routes will be severed for at least two months.]

[2: 30 li south of the trade route in the Desolate Land is a camp where a wandering merchant is stationed. He will be here for three days, carrying a bound Treasure of Glory from the God of Commerce and Fraud, trading with him could yield precious artifacts.]

[3: A rebellion is imminent in the Territory of Kingdom Knight Augustine Rachel in the Desolate Land. His excessively brutal rule has become intolerable even to Ranger Knights due to his cruelty and capriciousness.]

[4: In 700 miles from now, a Griffin will hatch in the Black Mountains after 14 days, but due to its mother hunting outside, it accidentally falls and dies at the valley’s bottom.]

[5: ...]

[6: ...]

...

[8: Deep within the Cursed Forest, 200 li north of the road, lurks a curse-driven berserk giant bear. Defeating it will yield a Rock Armor, greatly enhancing the defense abilities of Earth Attribute Bloodline Knights.]

[9: In the Lake of Oblivion, 100 kilometers ahead, Dragon Blood Grass grows quietly. Carrying it for a period can slightly enhance stamina and endurance.]

[10: The clerk Shabulin at Marle Castle will successfully acquire a Strong Potion tomorrow, significantly aiding him in pleasing Lisa, the wife of the Civil Servant Edner.]

Clearly, the world outside the Bauhinia Earl’s Territory is much harsher.

Everywhere lurk mutated monsters, Beastman Tribes, and ferocious flying beasts. Without the Daily Intelligence system, progressing slowly like this would likely see him blocked by barbarians on the way to the Border Prince’s Territory.

The Bloodthirsty Four-armed Barbarian Bulls are an extremely fearsome and powerful troop type among barbarians. They are ruthless and bloodthirsty, able to slice bodies in two with a casual strike, organs raining upon nearby foes. As the devastation escalates, their roars become the bugle calls for the entire Barbarian Tribe, triggering their urge for savagery.

Even Elite Knights can’t withstand them; it takes a Champion Knight to slay one, and Su Li has no desire to provoke them at all.

He just wants to swiftly advance and reach Marle Castle. The final line of the Daily Intelligence made the corners of Su Li’s mouth lift, finding it amusing. Even the wife of the Civil Servant...
