After the birthday party, the first thing on Terrence's itinerary was to go to Alderete.

This large border city belonging to the Aldelete family has three inner and outer cities. The city wall is built of rocks as high as half a person. The streets in the city are opened and closed, giving people a sense of solemnity and solemnity.

The city is located in the northwest of the empire. It is self-sufficient with fertile fields and several concentrated ore mines. It can be called the most affluent place in the empire.

But the people of Alderete are famous for their bravery and bravery.

Because while leaning against the fertile land for thousands of miles, Alderete is facing the territory of Abant.The roads bordering the two countries are easy to attack and difficult to defend. After capturing Aldelete, the terrain is open and you can go all the way south and go deep into the hinterland of the empire. Therefore, when the two countries go to war, the city of Aldelete is often attacked by Abant top priority.

After arriving at the city lord's mansion through the teleportation array, Terrence first met the deputy consul, sheriff and tax officer sent by the queen.After Terrence officially took over the city, the consul named Robert will resign from his acting position for more than a year and return to the imperial capital.Waiting here is just to hand over some affairs to the little duke.

However, the so-called handover is more of a formal expression.

After listening to Robert's report on Alderete City's pain-free report, although Terrence kept smiling, there was not much smile in his eyes.

In this ancient city, not only does it have a sense of history endowed by time, but at the same time, the major forces are criss-crossed, and there are all kinds of dirty collusion hidden.Among other things, the relationship between the tax collector and Borg Clooney's family is not very clean.

There was no way Robert didn't know anything about it.

In fact, Terrence is also very headache. Of course, he doesn't want the Queen's fangs to stay on his territory for too long, but it is undeniable that there are third-party forces inserted/inserted. At least be able to settle down a little bit.

But now, the officials sent by the queen have packed their bags and are ready to leave, but the real manager is a 12-year-old child, and some people must be secretly cheering.

Terrence is not a person who is particularly good at intrigue and intrigue, not to mention that the old Duke Aldret, who was praised by Her Majesty the Queen, failed to completely solve these problems.

But Terrence was not in such a hurry, because just a few years later, a disaster in Alderete City would solve these problems, and it was his strength to use strength to solve problems.

Thinking about his future plans, the little duke waved away the several officials standing in front of him. Before leaving, the chief of security did not forget to find a sense of presence for others, and said: "Commander Lawrence is probably busy with things today, so he couldn't come Greetings to Your Excellency the Duke, and I hope you will not criticize him too much."

Terrence glanced at the sheriff, but did not speak.

If you really want your colleagues to be spared the punishment of disrespect, why bother to confess them specifically.

He got up from his seat and stretched himself, ready to go for a walk on the street.Many people came with Terrence today, even Angus was included, but Borg was left in the imperial capital.

Lancer followed Terrence all the way, looked at the solid and simple houses on both sides of the street that lacked exquisite beauty, and sighed: "Your city looks really full of chills."

Terrence smiled, with a little pride in the corners of his eyes.

The city of Alderete has gone through many wars and blood washing. At the most critical time, even the whole people fought with soldiers, women and children.However, more than ten years have passed since the last battle. Today's city residents have probably lost their awareness of fighting because of the long and lasting daily life, but the soul of the army will not be tired.

He turned his head to look at the people behind him, and said, "There are not many things to do today, we will go back after noon. If you want to walk around, you don't have to follow me."

When Terrence said this, Angus was in sight: "My dear brother, maybe you are interested in some specialties in the city, you should ask Adam to take you around, if there is something you like, Just buy it."

Angus seemed shy to accept Terrence's proposal.

He followed behind Adam and turned to another direction along the crossroad ahead. Before leaving, he turned his head and glanced at Terrence's back. The blond knight was still following behind him, warmed by the sun.

Ulea tightly grasped Terrence's hand, looked at the boy who was as tall as her with amber eyes, and yelled "Ah, ah" a few times, expressing her determination to never leave.Lu Sien, who had a good time with Yulia these days—maybe it was just a one-sided idea—quietly withdrew his right foot from the candy store that was going to the side.

Terrence looked at Lancer: "What about you?"

"Isn't it my job to follow in your footsteps?" replied the blond knight.

Terrence said a little unbearably: "If you can have a little expression when you talk, then you are a well-deserved playboy."

Terrence's destination is the end of the east street.It was close to the border, and under the majestic city wall was a very large military camp.

The Saninpel Empire has three famous legions, and the Goshawk Legion subordinate to Alderete is one of them.

The head of the legion, Viscount Herbert Lawrence, who is now in charge of the legion, used to be under the old duke. He experienced the imperial war back then, and became a distinguished nobleman from a commoner. He was a very brave warrior.

It was the viscount who secretly tripped Terrence before the sheriff.

Herbert Lawrence still has the rough character of the common people. He doesn't know how to adapt and flatter. His spirit is armed with the murderousness of the battles, making him like a cold and stern stone.

This Mr. Viscount must be quite contemptuous of the new owner of the legion—a 12-year-old child with a mage level of only three, no combat experience and pampered, completely ignorant of the sufferings of the people. Under his leadership, the carnivorous tiger will become coquettish big cat.

Terrence could well imagine what Herbert Lawrence thought of him.In fact, he was such a person in the first life, and after getting along with him in the second life, the other party said this to him without any hypocrisy.

Since the legion commander didn't want to come to see him, Terrence didn't mind visiting him in person.This is not condescension to a respectable subordinate.

In front of the gate of the barracks, which is full of vicissitudes of time, the soldiers guarding the gate looked in surprise at the black-haired boy standing at the bottom of the steps leading the way.After being stunned for a few seconds before realizing it, he put down the weapon in his hand and knelt down on one knee to salute Terrence.

They are no strangers to the owner of Aldrette. They also worked together to find Terrence when he disappeared.Captain Lawrence's Legion was very angry at that time-in his opinion, it was a shame that an Aldrette should put himself in danger.Today the Legion Master is still yelling, declaring that he will never visit a young child.

His soldiers were influenced by the commander, and even when they saw Terrence, they didn't appear to be too frightened, but he was still the supreme ruler, so the guards didn't dare to show their pride like the legion commander.

Terrence walked up the steps in a few steps and asked, "Is Commander Lawrence inside? I heard that he is busy with work today, so I came to see him."

"This……"

The two soldiers looked at each other, wondering whether Terrence meant that he really came to visit the army commander, or whether he was secretly angry.

They hesitated, and did not dare to go forward and open the door.This caused Terrence to narrow his eyes slightly—he is not a kind person who allows ordinary soldiers to neglect him, so he said in a cold voice: "What? Are you going to ignore what I said? Maybe the Duke's identity is in your eyes It's not worth mentioning, I guess there is no one in the empire that makes you feel in awe except Her Majesty the Queen."

Terrence's voice was not loud, but his cold eyes and gloomy face made the two soldiers who were struggling during the training feel shuddering.

The little duke had also been through the battlefield and was covered in blood. If he really had a plan, almost everyone who looked into his eyes could see the shadow of swords and swords in it.Among the nobles of the imperial capital, he can act as an inexperienced child, but he doesn't have to be like this in the army. In fact, his delicate appearance will only make this group of soldiers who are full of fighting minds secretly shameless.

One of the guards was numb from Terrence's gaze. Lancer drew out his long sword in due time, and the snow-white blade rested on his neck at a speed invisible to the naked eye.The blond knight said: "Your resistance will be regarded as an act of rebellion. You'd better be honest and obey your master."

The absolute suppression by force made the soldier look bitter. He and his colleagues pushed the door open and bowed down to apologize to Terrence.

"I didn't expect that there are places that are difficult to enter in my territory. This is really strange." Terrence's words made the two of them paler, and they doubted whether they could still see the moon at night.But Terrence stopped talking and left the last sentence when passing by the two. "If the enemy comes to attack, you can still defend the city gate with all your strength, then I should be gratified by that."

The soldier looked at the little duke, who was understated and no longer pursued. His shoulders and back were straight under the gorgeous clothes, and his momentum was extraordinary. It seemed that he didn't want to be what everyone thought, a nobleman who devoted himself to enjoying himself.

The barracks has a large open flat land, behind it is a row of houses for soldiers to rest, and behind it is a hill that is not too high.It was late autumn, and if the normal trees would have been bare by now, the hill was still lush and green. There must be a lot of magic plants, which were used to train soldiers.

Terrence stood on the corridor, looking at the open-air school field, where the soldiers in black armor were practicing while drinking.They cooperated tacitly and were full of fighting spirit. After a long time, it seemed that their minds could be drawn to the battlefield where the dust hit their faces.

This is Aldelet's greatest weapon, the strongest sword that protects the empire.

Even though the people have forgotten how to use weapons because of the long-term peace, this group of black-armored soldiers honed themselves year after year for the coming war at any time, and the soul of the army is immortal.

The tall man standing in the front in the distance caught a glimpse of several figures standing in the corridor, and immediately shouted: "The group of idiots with only one mouth! Trash! Didn't I say that no one is allowed in here?" ?"

He yelled at the top of his voice, while striding over.

This is Herbert Lawrence, the head of the Goshawk Legion.

This man over forty years old has a beard and a face full of weather scars, which perfectly interprets the adjective "resolute".

Terrence watched the man get closer, and asked, "Does 'anyone' include those who belong to the Legion, Captain Lawrence?"

Herbert Lawrence stopped a few steps away, widened his eyes like copper bells, and said dryly, "Your Excellency, Your Excellency."

"Thank you for remembering me. I thought you forgot the news that I would come to the city today. So I had to see if your work is going well."

Terrence teased a bit maliciously. Sure enough, he saw the face of this legion commander who had not changed his "big old rough" style even after becoming a nobleman for more than ten years. He wanted to refute but couldn't say anything. export look.

He walked past Herbert's side and walked down the steps. The soldiers over there stopped their drill in a daze because the officer left in a hurry, and they were looking towards Terrence.

"You should tell them to continue, as if my presence interrupted your training."

—That’s right, you’re right.

Lawrence pouted in his heart, but although he kept saying that he didn't agree with the newly appointed young duke, he wouldn't really embarrass a young man in front of everyone.So he just said, "It's dirty and messy here, and I'm afraid it will make you uncomfortable. You should let the taxman show you around the city, there will always be shops that will catch your eye."

"Those people will investigate for me, and now I want to see if the number one legion in the empire is really as majestic and imposing as the rumors."

Terrence's words seemed to have angered Lawrence, and the legion commander immediately threw his reluctant etiquette behind him, and his face sank to stop the child from crying at night: "You shouldn't doubt the Goshawk Legion like this. , This is an insult to the soldiers!"

Terrence acted carelessly: "We all know that reputation does not necessarily match reality. Before seeing their strength, you can't deprive me of the right to doubt. Is that right, Captain Lawrence?"

Lawrence was so excited by Terrence's attitude that he completely forgot about his plan to fool this delicate young master out just now. He snorted coldly and said, "Then how do you want to know? I'm afraid their rudeness will Scared you."

"Haha." Terrence laughed heartily, "This is really exciting."

He pointed behind him and said, "It just so happened that I brought people here today, so I can make a comparison with your soldiers."

Lawrence turned his gaze to the others. Uriah was short and timid, and looked insignificant. He naturally ignored the past. The remaining two young men were well-dressed. The blond one was handsome, but his fair skin was not It looks like he has gone through hardships, his good skin may make him invincible among the delicate ladies, but it is useless on the battlefield, but the other one is worth seeing.

The little duke probably regarded this place as a place to show off the little wolf dogs he raised, but all of the Goshawk Legion were murderous wolves.

——It is time to teach the carefree young master a lesson, so that he will not think that his responsibility is to eat and drink, and just enjoy himself.

Lawrence, who had made up his mind, didn't talk nonsense, and led a few people to the school grounds.

He didn't even prepare a seat for Terrence, and let the little duke stand and watch under the scorching sun.It didn't matter to Terrence, let Lu Sien go to the challenge first.

Mr. Gong Bing enjoyed a lot of happiness in the Duke's mansion, but he did not forget to exercise his ability every day.As early as the moment he walked into the barracks and saw the soldiers on the school field, he felt the pulsation of blood boiling.

Lawrence called an archer who had reached the ninth level and asked him to compete with Lu Sien.The two stood still on the sidelines, only waiting for the whistle to sound, and jumped up to the top of the stone shelf in the corridor almost at the same time.

The longer the distance, the more capable the archers will be in the battle. Whoever has the greatest strength and the longest range will be the final winner.

The archer in black light armor still remembered the command of the regiment commander--do not hurt the opponent's life on a whim--so, although the first arrow was shot quickly, there was no need for continuous shooting. The arrow whizzed past and nailed Lu Sien's heel hard by a centimeter, which was regarded as a warning.

Lu Sien glanced at the quivering arrow feathers. While moving quickly, he held the arrow and bent his bow, pointing at the soldiers who were also running on the opposite side.

The soldier quickly shot another arrow, but Lu Sien dodged it. His foot speed was faster than the soldier's. While dodging the arrow sideways, he also turned his head and aimed at the figure who hadn't changed his movements yet.

An arrow pierced through the air with a sharp whistling sound.

The soldier was startled, and saw a flashing arrow approaching his eyes. With one hand on the stone slab, he twisted his waist and turned over, avoiding the deadly arrow.

And Lu Sien took this as a signal to attack, he speeded up, narrowed the distance with the opponent, took advantage of the height of the trees on the sidelines, and shot again from top to bottom, five arrows blocked all the escape routes around the soldiers.The soldier only felt cheated, and wanted to ask the officer at this moment—although I can stop, but the other party is more likely to kill me, what should I do?

But he didn't have such time right now. He used the longbow in his hand to blow an arrow away, turned over and jumped down the corridor through the exposed space, and did not forget to counterattack again in the air. This time he didn't hold back his hand, but Due to the limited time, he could only shoot four arrows in a row, aiming at Lu Sien's head, chest, abdomen and legs, but Lu Sien turned a somersault and avoided them all.Not only that, but he also took the time to throw an arrow with his hand during the tumbling, this arrow was no weaker than the force of a curved bow, it was nailed to the soldier's sleeve, and he was used to the ground with the force of piercing the air, momentarily Unable to get up.But Lu Sien had regained his footing, and aimed his bow and arrow at the soldier's head again from above.

The black-armored archers were sweating coldly on their foreheads. Facing such a disadvantage, they had no choice but to say: "I admit defeat."
