Chapter 1272: Chapter 338: Furious Giant Bear Corps (10,000)_3

Ludovico spoke: "Could it be that you’ve thought of some new solution?"

"Lady Megan!?"

As Ludovico’s words fell.

A faint sound of footsteps echoed outside the conference room.

A middle-aged woman in a low-collared robe stood at the doorway of the conference room.

Upon hearing Ludovico’s words, Megan stepped into the conference room.

Tap~tap~tap~

The hard heels of her leather shoes struck the blue stone-paved floor of the conference room, producing one echo after another.

As Megan took her steps, the snow-white skin of her chest swayed rhythmically...

Under Ludovico’s gaze, Megan reached Ludovico’s side.

Megan bent her waist slightly, completely revealing the snow-white expanse to Ludovico.

However, Megan seemed unbothered, straightening her waist and speaking respectfully.

"Sir Ludovico, there is something Megan forgot to mention to you..."

"Gol Krueger, the leader of the Furious Giant Bear Mercenary Corps, is my brother!"

"After the Furious Giant Bear Corps is hired by Sir Ludovico, Megan can assure Sir Ludovico of the Corps’ discipline and compliance!"

There was a hint of surprise in Ludovico’s words, "Brother?"

Megan nodded slightly and began to explain.

"Yes, Sir Ludovico."

"Gol Krueger is my father’s illegitimate child, unable to inherit my father Edwin’s family name, and instead takes his mother’s surname, Krueger."

Listening to Megan’s explanation, Ludovico responded.

"Lady Megan, this is something I am aware of, and I will give it my careful consideration."

With Megan acting as an intermediary, even hiring the notoriously undisciplined Furious Giant Bear Mercenary Corps wouldn’t be impossible.

However, Ludovico still desired a more stable military force as a final safeguard.

As his words fell silent.

Seeing that Megan showed no intention of leaving, Ludovico inquired.

"Lady Megan, is there anything else?"

Megan’s gaze fixed on Ludovico on the main seat, she asked.

"Megan recalls Ludovico saying that Lord Lynn of Morgan Town possesses at least three thousand armored soldiers?"

Ludovico nodded and responded.

"Does Lady Megan believe I am fabricating stories?"

Megan hurriedly denied.

"Sir Ludovico, you misunderstand!"

"What Megan means is, isn’t Ludovico curious why Lynn has so many armored soldiers?"

Ludovico frowned, a glimmer flashed in his eyes.

"Go on."

Megan responded and continued.

"Three thousand armored soldiers mean three thousand sets of metal standard armor!"

"Even assuming each set of metal standard armor weighs thirty pounds, three thousand sets would require ninety thousand pounds of iron."

"Under the circumstances of the Kaldi Empire’s imperial war, Lynn couldn’t possibly acquire such a quantity of iron from any Great Lord."

"Nor could he acquire so many sets of standard armor!"

"Therefore, the only possibility is..."

Megan’s words turned firm and resolute.

"There’s an open-pit iron mine in Morgan Town!"

"Through mining and production, Lynn acquired a large amount of metal armor and formed a sizable armored soldier unit!"

Having finished speaking, Megan fell silent.

Her eyes fixed on Ludovico, awaiting his response.

A few seconds later.

Ludovico’s face, full of calm, showed a glance of admiration towards Megan, speaking.

"As expected of Lady Megan!"

"To rise from a woman’s position to become the Patriarch of the Edwin Clan, you truly possess keen perception and deductive abilities."

Megan remained silent.

Suddenly.

Ludovico moved his right arm, directly wrapping it around Megan’s waist.

Amidst Megan’s tense exclamation.

Ludovico pulled Megan over, seating her on his lap.

The soft and plump feeling of Megan’s body and unique fragrance instantly surrounded Ludovico, permeating his senses.

A trace of panic appeared in Megan’s eyes, but she swiftly concealed it, warning verbally.

"Sir Ludovico, please restrain yourself!"

Ludovico’s lips curled up dismissively.

"What? Lady Megan now wants to tell me to restrain myself?"

"Before Lady Megan became the Patriarch of the Edwin Clan, Lady Megan willingly climbed to my..."

Before Ludovico could finish his words.

Megan’s expression shifted, hurriedly speaking.

"Sir Ludovico, Megan is discussing important matters with you!"

His right hand had just slipped into Megan’s low-collared robe, climbing her chest’s peak, suddenly halted.

The left hand holding Megan’s waist also instantly loosened.

Feeling the force vanish, Megan quickly rose from Ludovico’s lap, tidying her embroidered robe.

Megan cast an irritated glance at Ludovico but refrained from further rebuke.

Suppressing the newfound desires and thoughts, Ludovico spoke.

"As Lady Megan mentioned."

"There is indeed an iron mine in Lynn’s territory!"

"I witnessed firsthand a procession of draft horse wagons transporting iron ore unloaded from longships into Lynn’s township."

Megan’s vexed eyes brightened instantly.

As suspected in her mind!

There truly was an open-pit iron mine in Lynn’s territory!

Before Megan could respond, Ludovico continued speaking.
