Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

"Good morning, Your Majesty."

Verin entered the palace of Calus and saluted Alaric.

"Please get up."

Afterwards, the two came to the rest area behind the palace.

"Your Majesty, I came here today to discuss the teleportation formation with you." Weilin directly stated the purpose of his visit without any politeness.

Alaric knew it well and replied: "I am going to place the teleportation array in your territory."

The sudden answer made Weilin a little confused.

He originally thought that the teleportation array would be placed near the capital of the Silver Dragon Burke Kingdom, but he did not expect that it would be placed directly within his own territory. This result was very surprising.

"Your Majesty, this is a bit..."

"The Kingdom of Silver Dragon Berk has been in existence for more than 4,000 years. It is basically in a closed state. It only has connections with the Moon Elf Kingdom and the United Orc Kingdom. Other than that, it has very few connections with its country. I will authorize the establishment of two coastal areas. The road along the border ends at Zephyrus Territory.”

When the other party gave the conditions, Verin was not ambiguous and directly stated his own interests: "Your Majesty, 70% of the benefits generated by the teleportation array in the Zeferus territory belong to the Silver Dragon Berk Kingdom, and 100% Fifteen percent belongs to the territory of Zeferus, 10 percent is used for road maintenance, and 5 percent belongs to Algeta.”

"Are you willing to do so?"

"Your Majesty, without the endorsement of the Silver Dragon Berk Kingdom, this trade will cease to exist."

In Weilin's original plan, the teleportation array in the Silver Dragon Burke Kingdom already belonged to the Silver Dragon, and the trade route was opened in exchange for a benefit transfer.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. First, King Alaric easily agreed to build the teleportation array, and then he became a dragon knight canonized by the Silver Dragon Berk Kingdom, owning a territory of about 10,000 square kilometers.

Just now, he learned that the teleportation array would be built on his territory, causing the complete collapse of Weilin's previous plan.

Although he gave up most of the benefits, it was all worth it in exchange for the endorsement of the Silver Dragon Berk Kingdom.

If you look at it from the perspective of the original plan, he simply won.

"The Silver Dragon Berk Kingdom will be responsible for all the construction costs of the teleportation array. At the same time, I will invite an elder who is proficient in space magic to be responsible for the construction of the teleportation array in Zeferus's territory." Alaric thought for a while and said to Verin Said, "In addition, I will ask a legendary silver dragon to guard this teleportation array to ensure safety."

"Your Majesty, thank you for your support." Weilin replied respectfully, "However, I kindly ask to bear 15% of the construction cost of the teleportation array."

"Okay." Alaric responded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty.'

"I'm happy that Argenta has a friend like you. If you don't mind, you can just call me uncle in private." Alaric said in a very gentle tone.

"Uncle Alaric, I understand," Verin said with a smile.

Kind words bring the relationship closer between the two parties.

Before this exchange, Alaric would have been, at best, invested in Verin.

But now, in addition to investing, Alaric admires the human young man in front of him more and more. If he hadn't heard that the young man already had a fiancée, he would have really wanted to bring his youngest daughter and Verin together and try to bring them closer.

After more than two hours of cordial exchanges, Verin submitted his resignation to Alaric.

"Uncle Alaric, I'll take my leave first."

"Walk slowly."

After sending Vaelin away, Alaric asked the guards to get a map and plan the trade route himself.

After leaving the palace, Verin went to his previous residence and brought Kyle and the others to Zeferus Manor.

"Lord, when will we set off to return home?"

"About the beginning of next year, I plan to sort out my new territory before considering returning to the country." At this point, Weilin couldn't help but said angrily, "On the way back, that liar who sold the fake map, I swear, He must definitely regret everything he has done.”

In so many years, it was the first time that Kyle saw his master so angry.

It seems that deception is definitely a taboo in the heart of his master.

"During this period, I am going to take over Zeferus' territory first. You can stay in this manor for now. If you have time, you can go around and appreciate this city of art."

"I wish you good luck, Lord." Kyle sent his blessing.

Early the next morning, Verin and Seraphina set off from the Zeferus Manor to the electorate of Feneus to receive their territory.

In the afternoon of the same day, one person and one dragon arrived at the city of Feneus in the electorate of Feneus, a city with a population of 80,000 and an area of ​​300 square kilometers.

After landing in the central square, several dragon guards came forward.

"Knight of the West Wind, Feneus City Guard General Genann expresses my highest respect to you. Lord Feneus is already waiting for you in the castle. Please follow me." A high-ranking gold dragon general put his right hand on his chest. , lowered his head and said respectfully.

Several other draconian officers saluted to express their respect for the West Wind Knight.

"General Gnarn, nice to see you." Verin got off Serafina and returned the greeting.

Later, under the leadership of the defending general, Verin entered this simple castle.

The architectural style of this castle is like a work of art made of ordinary paints and materials, exuding a unique artistic atmosphere.

Perhaps it is only possible where the money-hungry silver dragon lives.

However, Verin did not hate this architectural style, but rather appreciated this simple style.

Entering the hall, a silver-haired elf appeared in front of him.

His voice was clear and moving, like the sound of nature, intoxicating people.

"Knight of the West Wind, I am Fineus, welcome to your arrival." The silver-haired elf said with a smile and elegance.

Seeing this, Verin bowed slightly to show respect.

"Lord Fineus, it's a pleasure to meet you."

At Fineus' invitation, Verin sat on the left side of the dining table. Seraphina sat next to Verin. When she looked at the silver-haired elf, her eyes were a little evasive. Due to racial differences, she was a little afraid in her heart.

At the dinner, Verin and Fineus got along very well.

They talked and laughed, as if they were old friends for many years.

Fineus told Verin many interesting stories. Verin also shared his adventures with Fineus, which made him listen with relish.

For this mid-level silver dragon who likes to use the appearance of an elf to represent people, although he is more than 500 years old, his mentality is still very young. In addition, he likes to lie flat, so the two soon have common topics.

"Hahaha, Weilin, I wish I had met you hundreds of years earlier."

"Lord Fineus, I was not even born at that time." Weilin laughed and teased.

"No need to add a honorific title, just call me Fineus. After the teleportation array is opened, I will go to your territory to take a good look." Fineus put his arm around Weilin's shoulders and said kindly.

"Welcome to my territory as a guest, I will definitely not let you down."

After careful consideration, Fineus suddenly said: "My friend, I want to recommend a talent to you."
