Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

Soon, the time came to the beginning of September. On the one hand, Weilin submitted an application for title promotion to the kingdom, and on the other hand, he began to gather some elite troops to start training and actively prepare for December.

So far, Qixing Lake has a total of three administrative districts under its jurisdiction, namely Qixing Town and the surrounding 450 square kilometers of land, which Baird is responsible for, Orlando Town, which is responsible for 600 square kilometers, plus two areas expanding to the south. One hundred square kilometers, the last area is the area that Andrew is responsible for developing, a total of four hundred square kilometers.

Verin came to the military camp below the castle. While teaching Kyle how to train soldiers, he asked him to practice on-site with these 500 soldiers, and at the same time he looked at various documents sent by Baird.

According to the latest report above, he has nearly 4,000 troops, accounting for 5% of the territory's population.

Compared to his cousin Alcott's territory, the number of troops was comparable, but the combat effectiveness was incomparable.

For example, the proportional structure of warrior apprentices and bronze warriors in the standing army makes people feel a sense of pressure.

Under normal circumstances, one bronze warrior commanding ten warrior apprentices is a reasonable standard for the most noble army, while one bronze warrior commanding four warrior apprentices is the standard for the kingdom's standing army.

Before meeting the Astral Mage, it would have taken at least five years for Verin to reach the reasonable standards of the noble army. But now, as long as the number of black-skinned pigs increases and they are supplied to the army in large quantities for training, he is confident that he can complete this within two years. proportion.

"My lord, the provincial capital has sent someone to send an official letter. The kingdom's reviewers will arrive in our territory in one month and start the review work. This is the newly revised promotion rule for pioneers to be promoted to baron this year." Baird entered the military camp and went straight to He walked over from the training ground and handed the official letter in his hand to Weilin.

Weilin placed the information in his hand on the wooden table next to him, took the official letter, and began to read the newly revised promotion rules.

"According to the previous promotion rules, a lot has been changed this time."

Baird heard this and said confidently: "Even if the kingdom doubles the difficulty of the promotion rules, we at Lake of Stars will not be under any pressure."

"Hahaha." Weilin closed the official letter and laughed, "That's right, the kingdom is doubling the difficulty. We have already met the requirements."

"But what? The last time the promotion rules were revised was a hundred and fifty years ago, and now the difficulty level has been drastically increased. It seems that many pioneers have fished in troubled waters in recent years."

"My lord is right." Baird agreed very much. "I think it was the monster attack on the western border this time, and the performance of the promoted barons was very poor, which forced the kingdom to modify the promotion rules."

"That's right. What the kingdom needs is nobles who can manage the territory and fight wars. It doesn't need the existence of wine sacks and rice sacks."

Weilin also guessed a thing or two about the reason, but he didn't expect that the Kingdom would move so quickly.

"But, can a life church be built in one month?" Verin pointed to the newly added line and asked Baird.

"My Lord, the territory is lacking everything now except for workers." Baird replied confidently, "Give your subordinates half a month to complete the task."

"Then I'll leave this matter to you. In addition, tighten the security in the territory. I feel that by the time we see the reviewers, the review may have ended."

"Yes, Lord." Baird replied firmly.

…

In early October, Verin received another message of destiny.

[A thousand kilometers west of the Lake of Prayer for Stars, there is a mutated moonlight flower growing in an underground cave]

Mutated Moonlight Flower, also known as Gifted Moonlight Flower, is one of the three main medicines used in the Moon Scar Potion, a potion that repairs the soul.

Weilin was extremely shocked when he heard the news and wanted to go immediately to get this thing back.

However, let alone a silver knight, he is just a soul-level knight heading to the hinterland of the Gray Mansions Wasteland, and there is a high probability that he will never return.

When he thought of this, Weilin felt like a basin of cold water was poured from beginning to end, and his excitement weakened a lot.

"Perhaps, we can ask Ms. Shia for assistance, but as the war is approaching, the timing is not good, so it will take some time."

The kingdom was about to launch a retaliatory war against the Gray Mansions Wasteland, and he did not believe that the monster clans were not prepared.

Maybe the top of the Mutated Moonlight Flower Cave is the base camp of the monster clan, so he has to think long term.

"I hope the kingdom can penetrate a thousand kilometers at once, so that we can get the mutant moonlight flower effortlessly. If not, we can only wait until this war is over before asking Ms. Shia to get the mutant moonlight flower back."

At the same time, five disguised outsiders entered the Lake of Praying Stars.

"Captain Leicester, why do we enter the Lake of Praying Stars in this outfit?" A young man asked with some confusion.

The middle-aged man at the head looked at the royal child who insisted on following, and said helplessly: "Because this lord is difficult to review, I plan to check it out first. If it meets the standards, we will return to the review team after the team arrives. , just go through the process without having to worry about it. If the standard is not met, give the other party a buffer time without offending people for no reason. "

"Why, he still dares to target you blatantly." The young man said with some dissatisfaction.

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said: "He can't, but his elders can."

"Isn't the Akers family tradition very good?"

"The Ex family has a good family tradition, but his grandfather, the Duke of Moravia, is protective of his son. I can't offend a big shot for no reason."

"You are right, Captain Lester. The Duke of Moravia is indeed protective of his son."

The young man couldn't help but tremble when he thought of his father's story about his grandfather being beaten up by the Duke of Moravia.

"Okay, after entering the Lake of Praying Stars, visit and investigate separately, and don't do anything out of line."

"Yes, Captain."

The other three responded.

After the five entered the Praying Star Town, they visited and investigated separately.

Lester went directly to the gathering place of the town-the Adventurer's Tavern.

If you want to say where it is easiest to get information, it must be here. He definitely didn't come here just to drink.

As soon as he entered the tavern, Lester sat on the tavern seat skillfully, asked the tavern staff to serve wine, and soon got along with the people around him.

"The Church of Life is really beautiful, but it's a pity that there is no priest now, so we can't enter the church to pray to the goddess of life." A man put down his glass and talked loudly.

"I really hope that our kind lord can invite a priest back." A middle-aged man not far away echoed.

"Have you heard that the tax land grain standard will be lowered recently."

"Thank you, lord, and thank you, Steward Baird. This year, I can get more money and buy some clothes for my children."

"Other places are suffering from famine, but we are fine here. It must be that the lord is protected by the goddess of life."
