I'm also trying to survive today [Western Fantasy]

The night returned to silence. Seeing that there was nothing to do, Julian asked Parry and the others to rest, and he returned to the tent to lie down.

There were a lot of things that happened today, but most of them had nothing to do with him, on the contrary, he gained a lot.

Whether it is getting acquainted with Sophia or getting a relationship with the cavalry captain named Ryan, it will be very beneficial to his future development.

Especially the latter, Julian's fief Huita Valley is close to the border with Chabi Kingdom. Although there is a land of the dead, it is unlikely that the opponent's army will attack, but this cannot prevent the opponent's small force from infiltrating.

Judging from the information Luke gave him, there are several groups of bandits who have some unclear relationship with Chabi Kingdom. It is obvious that they are not tired of doing things that cause trouble for their enemies.

Julian didn't know what it was like in his territory, but from Luke's slightly pitiful eyes, it was not difficult to imagine that the situation there must be bad, no... maybe it should be described as bad.

Grand Duke Leslie's territory is next door to his. People must look down on his small territory, but if he wants to develop, he will definitely not be able to get around the Grand Duke. They say that there are people in the court who are easy to handle. It is better to build a good relationship in advance than to have trouble in the future.

Thinking about many questions about territory construction in his mind, Julian fell asleep without knowing it. After he fell asleep, a figure got into his tent.

Feeling that familiar breath, Julian didn't wake up, but habitually moved his body aside, leaving a space for one person.

Owen took advantage of the situation and lay down in it. He was also very used to reaching out and hugging Julian in his arms.

Julian mumbled something unknown, moved his body, and adjusted a more comfortable posture.

Owen kissed his forehead, and complained in a low voice: "Little heartless, thanks to my hard work just now, you didn't look at me and went to see other wild men, which made me very unhappy."

Julian was sleeping unconsciously, and a transparent liquid was faintly visible in his slightly opened mouth. Owen looked even more amused, and kissed the corner of his mouth, feeling as if he was thinking too much.

Julian was sleeping soundly, with a heartless appearance, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't seem to have any sad attitude towards the demon just now.Sure enough, his little lover is different?Even if he also uses the power of demons, his lover will not be the kind that is evil and cruel!

Julian didn't sleep well, his body twisted and twisted in Owen's arms.

Owen's whole body became hot from being rubbed by him, and he couldn't help but patted his butt lightly, threatening: "Stop moving, or I'll eat you!"

Julian didn't notice anything, and was still sleeping happily.

Owen had no choice but to leave a shallow tooth mark on his face, and then with the mentality of 'caring for the seedlings', he suppressed the desire in his heart.

After a night of nothing, when Julian woke up the next morning, he felt a slight tingling on his face. He touched it suspiciously, and felt that his face seemed a little uneven.

Julian:? ? ?

He found a mirror, looked inside, and saw a clear tooth mark on his cheek.

Julian: ...

Very good, based on the shape comparison, the suspect was easily found.

Julian gave himself a simple treatment helplessly, and when he walked out of the tent, he saw Owen directing the other knights to pack their luggage and prepare to go.

Seeing the victim appear, Owen didn't change his face, but smiled at Julian, just in time to see the neat and white teeth.

"Hurry up, grow up!" Owen mouthed from a distance.

Julian was stunned for a moment, then realized something, and the roots of his ears were faintly red.

Why grow up quickly, you can't enjoy yourself after you grow up... Owen is really... why is he so promiscuous!

Julian's face turned red, and he gave Owen a hard look. Owen didn't care at all, but smiled more complacently, and kept looking back and forth at Julian's lower three.

Julian was too embarrassed, but facing Owen's teasing in every possible way, what else could he do but endure it?Anyway, he will never admit that he is actually a little dark in his heart...

In this way, the group walked for a long time, and finally arrived at the destination of Owen's trip, Monk City.

Monk City is just a small border town, but the business here is unexpectedly prosperous. On the way to and from, you can see an endless stream of caravans. They carry a large number of goods, transit through Monk City, and then transport them to the surrounding area by sea. some small countries.

Those island countries on the sea are often small in size and small in population. Such small countries have never been seen by the kingdoms, but Julian knows that such a small country that controls an island, once found on the island What kind of minerals, that is the rhythm of getting rich overnight.

What kind of money is best to earn?Of course it is the money of the nouveau riche!

Especially the kind of people who were poor before and then broke out overnight. For them, everything is a good thing, and doing business with them is almost a huge profit.

Julian looked at the merchants suspiciously: "I remember that although this area is near the sea, there is no place suitable for building a port. How did their business develop?"

Owen knew a little more than him, and pointed to a cliff not far away: "Someone hired dwarves to build several elevators there, using those elevators, you can put the goods down, and the coastline below just sags into it. , the surrounding mountain walls block the wind and waves, forming a natural haven."

Julian said thoughtfully: "Although there is shelter from the wind and waves, there is no place suitable for landing, so there is no need to worry that someone will capture it, and the elevator above must be guarded. If something happens, it will be a big deal. Cut off the cable of the elevator directly to destroy the elevator. So, this place can become a special maintenance place for trading goods, but it will never become a shortcoming of the enemy's attack. Interesting... The person who came up with this idea is really amazing , Shengsheng turned an ordinary small town into a commercial trading place along the coast."

A smile appeared on Owen's face: "The location of Monk City is very special. Its lord is a neutral aristocrat—Earl Wilson. He has never participated in any political struggles, and he is dedicated to running Monk City. For so many years, Monk City has also been flourishing under his management. Not only can he pay a large amount of taxes for His Majesty the King, but he can also provide a lot of logistics for Grand Duke Leslie. Compared to the kingdom's army, Earl Wilson is absolutely indispensable."

Julian immediately understood that Owen was reminding himself that at the right time, he could hug Earl Wilson's thigh. Even if he didn't hug his thigh, he could still make use of the prosperous commercial characteristics of Monk City to add bricks and tiles to his fiefdom. .

Julian's heart moved slightly. Maybe he could dig out the special products in the territory after he figured out the situation in the territory?

But after thinking about it, I didn't even see the territory, so it was useless to think so much.

Monk City is Owen's destination. In front of so many people, he can't be too obvious. He can only suppress his emotions as much as possible and tell Julian that he will go back to see him soon.

Julian was also quite uncomfortable. People in love didn't even want to separate for a second, let alone this kind of separation.

Fortunately, the distance between Huita Valley and Monk City is not too far. If you hurry up, you can get there in about half a day. In the future, they can sneak out for a date, which is much better than a real long-distance relationship.

After saying goodbye to Owen, Julian took Sidney and the four of them out of Monk City.Although he was prepared in his heart, when Julian saw the tragedy of Huita Valley with his own eyes, he was still deeply shocked...

According to the fiefdom he got, the entire Huita Valley is his territory, which is already a very large area for a barony, but who can tell him that the dilapidated area in front of him can even be seen by a living person? What is the open space that cannot be reached?

Are there two small villages in the agreed valley?

Let alone the village now, I haven't even seen a living figure!

"Squeak..."

As if mocking Julian, a big gray mouse crawled out of the ruined walls of the original village. It didn't seem to be afraid of people at all. After seeing Julian, it squeaked at him twice in a demonstrative manner. sound, as if to expel this 'outsider' who broke into his house.

Julian: ...

He swung out a lightsaber, and the gray mouse died miserably on the spot. The baby-faced Matthew next to him clicked his tongue: "Cruel, it's so cruel...you didn't even let a mouse go!"

Julian glanced at him coolly, and Matthew immediately covered his mouth, indicating that he would remain silent.

Along the way, Julian could tell that Matthew knew a lot, and his craftsmanship was also very good, but his mouth was a little short, and he would frantically test it on the verge of death from time to time.

He now believes that this guy just wanted to test the loopholes in the non-disclosure agreement, rather than betray him, because he has done similar things many times along the way. So far, he has reported to Parry, Roger, and West德尼以及一位倒霉路过的圣骑士小哥哥分别示爱了一次，并且成功收获了几个白眼和一顿胖揍……

It can be said that this guy is the real life, endless death!

With his eyes, he successfully stopped Matthew from continuing to die. Facing this piece of ruins, Julian also had quite a headache.

"Go and check around," Julian said.

Parry and Roger dispersed tacitly, looking for clues around the village; Sidney also got off the horse and took a closer look around.

In the end, it was Matthew who found the clue first. Judging from the remaining traces he got, the village was probably robbed by bandits, but the bandits didn't kill anyone. Less fire here.

"So... we have to go to the bandit den to rescue my villagers first?" Julian rubbed his forehead with a headache. They are now a group of five people, Sidney, who has no fighting power, does not count, and the rest The four are going to challenge a bandit village with at least 50 people?Even if Julian considers himself the hero of the novel, he thinks it's a bit of a death sentence.

Sidney also seemed to have noticed something, walked back with a solemn expression, and handed Julian a small iron piece.

"What's this?" Julian asked.

Sidney said in a deep voice: "This is a metal forging method unique to Chabi Kingdom. Judging from the shape of the small iron piece, it should be the tip of a dagger. It fell off somewhere."

Julian said expressionlessly: "Very good, now our enemy has upgraded, from a bandit village to a bandit village backed by Chabi Kingdom."

"No, young master, what I mean is, if the villagers were taken away by people from Chabi Kingdom, then they must no longer be in the cottage."

"Why?" Julian looked at him puzzled: "Could they send people away?"

He originally thought that those bandits were arresting people to strengthen his team, but he didn't expect Sidney to shake his head sadly: "Think about that document."

Julian quickly recalled the content of that document, and then his face gradually became ugly.

The information provided by Luke is very detailed, including the strength of Chabi Kingdom’s support for these bandits. Most of their bandits can only get logistical support from Chabi Kingdom, some food, cloth, etc. After all, they Entrenched in the Forbidden Mountains, Chabi Kingdom is also worried that they will stab them in turn.

The only one who received special treatment from Chabi Kingdom was a bandit force called 'Black Wind'.

There were not many bandits in this group, there were less than ten people in total, and the leader was a half-orc called Oakes. No one knew how Oaks got on the line with Chabi Kingdom, but they did get the support of Chabby Kingdom spared no effort.

From weapons to money, among all the bandit gangs, only Heifeng can have weapons made of special metals made by Chapi Kingdom.

And Heifeng has a very famous vice, that is, cannibalism. Anyone who is looted by them will become their food.

It was precisely because of this thought that Julian's face became very ugly. Judging from the traces, the destruction of the village was at least a month ago. Those villagers may have been killed already, and if they rushed to find Go to the door, maybe it will become the next meal for the black winds.

Owen Diary:

Not happy about being separated from Julian today!

I was also very upset to find the information shared by that dragon guard.

I just came here to take up the post, and someone is making trouble on my site, which is obviously looking down on me.

For those who look down on me, I have always been willing to give them some 'surprises', and this time is no exception.

But first... let me catch those little mice in the church first, these guys who believe in evil gods are really bold, even dare to monitor the church?

No... Maybe they dare to do this because they have something to rely on?I think, I need to get to know the priest, I always feel that he seems to be hiding something...

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Julian (with a dazed face): My territory is really nothing, not even people... Is this the rhythm that makes me start from nothing?fall!
