Chapter 26 The Prestige among the People Soared

Sure enough, everything went as Tom had expected.

Although Rock County was under his control now, the small leaders had formed their faction.

Now that he wanted to take it back, those small leaders needed to obey his orders!

To achieve great success, Tom had to make everyone submit to him, everyone in Rock County!

If there was any disagreement, it must be eliminated!

The leaflets cast by the lion eagle beasts in groups had brought a great effect.

Those who received the news immediately lost their backbone.

The news that Henry was annihilated shocked them!

Even Robin and Henry, the two biggest forces, were no match for Tom.

This made those who had always looked down upon Tom panic.

At the same time, there was no reason for them to continue to rebel because they didn't even have a leader.

"Rod, lead all the lion eagle beasts to inspect the territory of the Rock County!"

Tom gave an order to Rod, who was guarding the Rock City.

Rod was the most loyal subordinate of Tom. Tom's series of actions made Rod follow Tom to death.

Therefore, after receiving Tom's letter, Rod immediately began to arrange the urban defense of the Rock City and let the lion eagle beasts inspect all the territories of the Rock County.

At the same time, he also guarded the garrison of the Rock City well, just to wait for Tom's arrival.

"Count Tom will arrive at the Rock City soon. You must behave well!"

Rod didn't forget those who had surrendered to the Rock City. Before Tom came, he didn't forget to remind them, and at the same time, he also warned them.

"When Count Tom comes to the Rock City, he will see more bustling streets than before," the crowd responded immediately.

Rod nodded with satisfaction. He believed that everyone was smart enough to know who could bring them a better life and greater benefits.

Of course, if there was someone who didn't know good from bad, he didn't mind letting him taste the blood.

The next step was to make an inspection tour of the city. Rod led the soldiers to check everywhere in the city.

The slum had been renovated, and every citizen had a place to live and work in peace.

It was Count Tom who freed the Rock City that brought them such a life.

Therefore, Rod wanted to try his best to make the city run more stable so that Count Tom would have no worries.

In this way, Tom's value for him wouldn't be in vain.

And some noble clans from the slum wanted Tom to know their talents more, hoping to be appreciated by Tom, so that they could get a position in the city.

They made great efforts in the construction of the Rock City.

"If we can get the reward from Count Tom, we will have a chance to succeed!"

The guards of the Rock City, in addition to the subordinates brought by Rod, also some people joined spontaneously to maintain the order of the city.

There was also a senior team of craftsmen in the Rock City, which built the gates and walls of the city more firmly.

Everything was moving in a good direction. Looking at the prosperous city, Rod was very satisfied.

He walked to the high wall again, where there was the most important position.

On the city wall, he specially asked people to make the safest and most comfortable high seat, so that after Tom came, he could be more relieved and comfortable on the high seat.

Not only was the high seat on the city wall in the Rock County prepared for Tom, but the duke's mansion in the city was also rebuilt by everyone.

The new duke mansion not only looked dignified and noble from the outside but also more elegant inside, waiting for the arrival of its owner, Tom.

The meeting center in the center of the city was rebuilt, and the upgrade became the meeting hall.

It was a grand conference room. Rod walked inside and nodded repeatedly. Everything was ready here, waiting for the master, Count Tom.

It had to be said that the public of the Rock City was currently focused on the promotion, waiting for Tom to rule.

"The popularity of Count Tom has increased so fast among the people."

The special envoy, Hugh, was sent by the queen. He was waiting for Tom in the Rock City, so he could see the changes in the Rock City.

He recalled that he just came to Rock City a few days ago. When he saw the luxurious and prosperous state of the aristocrats in Rock City, he didn't think highly of Tom at that time.

However, Tom killed Henry at an unexpected speed. At the same time, he also sent people to take down Rock City.

Now, in a short time, even without Tom coming, the people of the Rock City had already regarded Tom as their belief and become a fanatic fan of Tom.

Although Rod, Tom's No.1 fan, contributed a lot to this, Tom himself did have the ability to make people fall in love with him.

In this era where strength was the most important, Tom had fully displayed his strength, which could not be underestimated.

"I don't know what kind of reply our majesty will give after she gets the letter."

The special envoy, Hugh, had informed the rose queen about the situation of the Rock City in letters word by word.

The special envoy Hugh had already agreed with Tom from the bottom of his heart. In the letter, he even objectively praised Tom. Even the special envoy Hugh had not seen this young noble.

Now all the people in Rock County were expressing their sincerity to Tom with their actions, thanking Tom for making their life better.

Except for Lord Jack's distant relative, Baron Taylor.

Baron Taylor was the leader of the territory in Rock County. He had always looked down upon Tom.

Taylor hadn't joined the union of small leaders to prevent the allied forces from rescuing Henry.

At that time, Taylor didn't believe Tom's strength at all. He thought it was an exaggeration!

However, Tom became the count of Rock County and killed the arrogant Henry.

Such a fact made Taylor jealous to death.

"When did a loser like Tom know the queen?"

Baron Taylor had always dreamed of being chosen by the queen, so he regarded all the achievements that Tom had achieved now as a gift from the queen.

"Why not me? Why the loser Tom?"

Baron Taylor was so distorted that his face turned black.

So, he took all his money, disguised himself, and sneaked away with his confidants.

All the leaders in the whole Rock County, except Taylor, had accepted the order of Tom to surrender.

They opened the gate to welcome Rod into the city.

Rod led the lion eagle beasts to the territory one after another quickly, accepting the leader's sincerity to Tom.

"Mr. Rod, this is the most precious jade in our Jade Territory. I'd like to present it to Count Tom. I hope Mr. Rod can put in a good word for me."

The leader not only showed his determination and wealth to surrender but also presented a huge jade.

Rod accepted it for Tom.

"Mr. Tom deserves the best in the world!"

When Rod was inspecting the territory of the small leader, a kind of generosity was born naturally.

So far, most of the forces in Rock County were under Tom's control.
