Lord of Lowland

Chapter 166 The Return
Falaya babbled, and said as if he had made a lot of determination: "Our lizard tribe is willing to sign an offensive and defensive agreement with you, the baron. We will give absolute help when the orcs attack the baron's territory. On the contrary, if the If people attack us, I hope the baron can also help us to some extent."

Cecil couldn't help but smile when he heard this. The Lizardman Tribe has already expressed their position, so Cecil will naturally give them an affirmative answer: "Of course, if the orcs attack the Dreamland Swamp, I will risk my life." Do you want to protect Zhouquan here? It’s like I risked my life to kill the seven-headed snake today.” After speaking, he did not forget to remind the other leaders that it was Cecil who killed the seven-headed snake who was rampant here. The head snake, thus keeping them all.

After Cecil finished speaking, he turned his attention to the other three tribal leaders. As the saying goes, as long as there is a gap in a strong fortress, the rest can be easily breached. The other three, Faraya, have already expressed their intentions to Cecil. The intention of the alliance, if I am slower and the other two express it faster than myself, I am afraid that I will be passive if I leak it alone.The three bowed: "We are also willing to form an alliance with the baron."

Cecil couldn't help but laugh when he saw these three people clumsily imitating human etiquette: "In this way, the four of us and I will be a nation of brothers, sharing blessings and sharing hardships. The orcs will probably die out after this battle." , if there can be peace. In the future, I will work hard to promote mutual trade with the Orc Empire. In the future, our territory may become the center of material transactions between the two countries, and our prospects are also very bright."

The four leaders of the swamp could only nod in agreement at this time.These people can't help but yearn for the bright future that Cecil said. If only Cecil is good at words, these leaders will not be so easily moved. The key is to speak with the hard power of killing the Hydra. How did I kill it? At least these swamp natives would never achieve such an achievement in their lifetime. Such a strong record made Cecil's words unknowingly have a sense of majesty. Before killing the Hydra , although the four leaders are not as comprehensive as Cecil, they still dare to stand up to Cecil, and now they obviously don't have this kind of courage.

Cecil looked at the four lords with satisfaction. He believed that under the framework of this alliance, the power of his direct lineage would become stronger and stronger, and finally include the power on the swamp. From this battle, it can be seen that the great The frontier is full of treasures, and powerful creatures emerge in endlessly. There is such a powerful existence on the border between the Soloran Kingdom and the Orc Empire, which almost turned the regular troops of the Orc Empire upside down. What terrible existence will exist in the depths of the world? I am afraid I can't even think about how powerful the "Beamon" information I got when I killed the Thunderbird King.

Cecil returned to Bone Tooth City with all the money, all kinds of powerful minerals and herbs from the Great Borderlands. It is unimaginable that Archmage Antonio immediately went to Cabrada to help Seychelle negotiate the mineral transaction. After all, the city of mages is strong enough to never be unable to swallow these things.

Then Cecil immediately went to various places to purchase grain, but the effect was not very significant. Cecil was the only lord who exempted all tenants from rent in the first three years, so he almost all the people around him who dared to come to the border to beg for food. Attracted.The other lords did not have a large population and did not produce as much food as Cecil, so Cecil's purchase was not very smooth. In the end, Cecil even had to collect food from several nearby provinces to make up the amount.

Cecil in the nearby provinces originally thought it would be difficult to deal with. After all, the deputy officials are not as concerned about their own territory as the lords, but they are better than the lords. As long as they are given enough personal benefits, they will actually The price of grain was lowered to a level that made Cecil chuckle. It seems that although the deputy official system is beneficial to prevent the lord from challenging the king's power, the harm it caused is also obvious.Of course, these disadvantages may not necessarily be disadvantages in the eyes of the royal family. The weaker the personal territory, the stronger the centralized power of the king.

Cecil was deeply moved when he saw this scene, but he was more concerned about the situation of the orc empire on the other side. The orc territory has been unusually peaceful these days. After experiencing such a big loss, the orcs seemed to be much quieter. Cecil was not surprised at all. The orcs were a disaster for no reason this time. They gathered such a huge army and a wild creature appeared out of nowhere to disrupt the situation.This made the secret dispatch of the orcs meaningless.

In fact, Cecil couldn't help but secretly rejoice. The strength mobilized by the orcs this time was obviously going to be a big operation. He, a little pawn, would not be the target of the orcs, nor would the Blood Eagle Knights who were watching the border. The targets of the orcs are not enough. Their target should be at least the entire northern part of the Kingdom of Soroland. Even if they want to invade the entire Kingdom of Soroland, it is not an exaggeration.Cecil was also secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, the Ultimate Seven-Headed Snake made such a fuss. Otherwise, when the orc army launched a general attack, he would be no different from an ant blocking the wheel. He would be crushed to death without making any movement. .

At this time, the old man Sabo suddenly found Cecil, and there was a trace of excitement in his eyes. At the beginning, Cecil took him in because he thought he might be useful in the future, but what is the use? Cecil himself has no use Think about it, anyway, it doesn’t cost much food to raise one more old man, so Cecil doesn’t mind bringing him here. This old man has only had his teacher to talk to him since he was young. All isolated.It's the same now. After arriving in the territory for more than a year, he has always been immersed in research in his small room, and he has never even left the door.Now that he came to Cecil suddenly, Cecil himself was a little surprised.

The old man's whole body was pitch-black, which was the color of various experimental medicines. Finally, when the colorful medicines reached the old man's body, they mixed into a bottomless black, just like a miner who just walked out of a coal mine, but the old man But there was an excited look in his eyes, which Cecil found strange. In his impression, there seemed to be nothing that could make the old man happy, even ten thousand taels of gold was regarded as dung in front of him.
