At dusk, the water on Bottily Lake is rippling, and the wind blows across the lake, causing circles of ripples from time to time. Refracting the glow of the setting sun, leaving strings of bright flashes like jewels. On this beautiful and quiet lake, a majestic and gorgeous castle like a fairy tale is built in the middle of the lake. The periphery of the castle is a circle of high defensive walls, and the buildings inside are towering circular towers, pointed sentry towers, watchtowers, shooting bunkers, etc. As for the main building, there are buildings with vaults of various shapes, columns carved with complicated patterns, balconies stretching in different directions, and domed pavilions with green vines, etc.

Connecting the castle and the lake shore is a road that has been built. The road can accommodate three carriages running side by side, and the road surface is spacious and clean. It leads straight to the gate of the castle, and to a certain extent also plays a role in restricting the direction of the enemy's attack. Now, carriages are driving along the lake road into the castle, and after passing through layers of defensive buildings, they arrive at a cobbled fountain square.

The people who got off the carriage were all dressed in luxurious and decent clothes, and even the position of each hair was carefully groomed. As for the emblems on the clothes that marked their identities, it showed that most of these people were barons.

It is definitely a rare scene for five or six jazz to gather together, especially when they are summoned to this castle, such a scene is even rarer. On the tallest bell tower of the castle, on the flag that was constantly blown by the wind, the last light of dusk slid down the unicorn with endless majesty on the flag, and finally jumped into the night.

In an empty room of the castle, the walls were surrounded by dim lights, but the brightness of those electric lights seemed insufficient. So a candlestick in the middle of the hall's dome was lit with candles as thick as a child's arm. Candlelight made up for the lack of light and illuminated the hall, especially the discussion table below.

On both sides of the rectangular conference table, the copper velvet cushioned chairs were already full of people. Several barons greeted each other after meeting, and everyone seemed polite. But among these people, there are two people with gloomy faces.

At this time, the door of the hall was pushed open, and someone strode in. When he came in, all the jazz shut their mouths to pay their respects.

"Good evening, gentlemen." The man was wearing a white shirt and a lace scarf. On a pair of linen breeches were a pair of black riding boots. There were still slight sweat stains on his forehead, and he seemed to have just returned from riding a horse.

A servant brought a copper basin and filled it with light water.

The man washed his hands and face with water, took a clean towel and wiped it before sitting in the center of the table. He is almost middle-aged, but looks very young. He has a handsome appearance and a very gentle temperament. The well-groomed beard added a bit of majesty to him, and his pair of shining eyes made him stand out among a group of barons.

He is the master of this castle, Viscount Daniel. Although these barons are called friends, in fact, these barons are all attached to Viscount Daniel. In the aristocratic class of the empire, the name of strength is crowned before the title, which usually means that the overall strength of the knight has met the requirements for promotion, but due to lack of military merit or other reasons, he is temporarily unable to be promoted. Add the word strength to show the difference. This special title is just like what it literally refers to. Such nobles are often powerful, much higher than those of the same rank.

Just like Viscount Daniel, his Unicorn Legion has a regular organization of more than 3,000 people. If you count the cannon fodder troops, logistics and other related personnel, the number of troops will be as many as 5,000. Sitting on such an army, Daniel is naturally qualified to add the word strength before his title. What's more, his own source power is not bad, and the strength of level 24 has almost touched the threshold of the Earl. Because of this, the barons around his territory all chose to submit to him.

Viscount Daniel sat down, glanced at the jazz, and said with a smile: "It seems that everyone is in a low mood, and you have lost a battle. My unicorn also lost a squadron of knights, and it may not be with everyone. Usually, you have a sad face. Where you lose, you can win again, what do you think?"

A knight with redbud flowers and snakes embroidered on his clothes snorted and said, "Lord Daniel, this time it's not as simple as losing. Sir Beah and I received a letter from Storm City at the same time. In the letter, the person in charge of Storm City That lord demanded a ransom from us before releasing our two commanders. And..."

"And what?" the Viscount sat up slightly and asked.

"And asked us to pay compensation for this matter. The war compensation he listed is simply an astronomical figure!" The baron slapped the table vigorously and said, "This is simply unreasonable. If you won a battle, your arrogance is too much!" Arrogant."

Daniel showed a surprised expression, and then smiled: "It seems that there is an interesting guy on the border. What's his name?"

"Call Alan, my lord."

"Alan? If there is a chance, I really want to meet him." Daniel changed his comfortable posture and said, "It seems that you kicked the iron board this time, so how about it. The ransom of the two commanders still has to be paid, After all, soldiers can be recruited, but there are people who can lead troops to fight. As for the war compensation, I will give him a formal written warning in my own name. If he still wants compensation, then I will give him a a war."

"A real war!" Daniel said with a smile.

Allen sneezed suddenly.

Father Miro looked at him strangely: "Do you have a cold?"

He shook his head and said, "Go on, what did we talk about just now?"

"Everything has been prepared, the reconstruction of the temple has been completed, and we have our own church. What is left now is to pick a time to officially launch the banner. Through this period of development, we have already had the first batch of believers, including I recruited some officials. Just waiting for the church to officially open, I will be able to recruit believers.” Speaking of excitement, the priest almost danced.

Seeing his majestic appearance, Allen had a hard time imagining what Father Miro, the first pope, would look like if Christianity grew stronger on this planet. He suppressed a smile, nodded and said: "I have asked Roger to come to Storm City, and it is expected that next month, I will go to the hinterland of the empire. So the church has to be open before I leave, let's pick it on next Monday, you too Time to get ready."

"That's it." Father Miro agreed.

Then looking at Alan, Milo tried to ask: "So today, do you want to talk about your father?"

"Huh?" Allen raised his head, but shook his head unexpectedly, saying: "No, there are still many things to be busy. Let's talk about that man later. I'm going back, and I still have some documents to look at." .”

He stood up, said goodbye and left.

Father Miro watched his figure disappearing into the night, and said after a while, "This little guy seems to have grown up."

During this weekend, an army visited Stormcity. That was the army of Black Iron Castle. Higgs arrived in Storm City with ten black cloud knights and a hundred infantrymen. The army was taken to the barracks by Reg to rest and rest, and Higgs himself was entertained by Allen.

"What a rare visitor, Captain Higgs. I thought it would be a long time before I saw you again after the last farewell."

In the study of the City Lord's Mansion, Alan and Higgs sat on the sofa. Higgs smiled and said: "Since I had a long talk with Sir Allen last time, I often want to see him again. However, I have been busy with official duties. Until recently, I heard that Storm City was besieged. Although I know this little thing is not difficult. But Mrs. Allen, he still couldn't help but come here to see if there is anything that can help."

"I'm sorry. How is Black Iron Fort doing?"

"It's still the same, but Sir Sharon is not willing to be lonely. Probably in the next year or two, he will try to develop inland."

Allen nodded and said: "Sir Sharon is ambitious, so naturally he will not be willing to condescend to a small border land."

"Yeah, what about Lord Alan?" Higgs said with emotion: "I saw your workshop when I entered the city just now. It's only been a while, and the efficiency of Lord Alan really doesn't matter. I'm very happy." I am glad that Sir Sharon followed my advice and did not become your enemy. Otherwise, we would probably have quite a headache."

Allen said with a faint smile: "The resources of the border land are limited. The two of us fought back and forth. In the end, in the eyes of the real nobles of the empire, we were nothing more than a dog bone. I am also very glad that the Black Iron Fort is not an enemy, so we You can save the time of fighting and use it to develop your own business.”

"It seems that Master Allen is also preparing to leave the Borderlands."

"I have this plan."

The two tested each other again. After getting the information he wanted, Allen asked Higgs to take a rest and invited him to attend the opening ceremony of the church tomorrow. Higgs readily agreed without asking what a church is. In his mind, it should be almost the same thing as a temple.

After Higgs left, Belmode knocked on the door and came in, handing Alan a note. The note was sent by the border military station, and the information above showed that people from Black Iron Fort had arrived at the border five days ago, and the number of people who came was not limited to the few brought by Higgs. However, after hearing that the situation in Storm City had been resolved, the army of Black Iron Castle withdrew from the border, and finally only Higgs came to visit with a hundred people.

Allen smiled and crushed the note into powder. Naturally, Black Iron Fort would not be the kind of loyal ally who stabbed at both sides. If Storm City fell that day, Allen could be sure that Black Iron Fort would never come to rescue, and would only take the opportunity to get a share of the pie. This was expected, but this information made Allen improvise and decided to slightly modify the opening procedure of the church tomorrow.
