After listening to Duke's analysis, Lenia combined the strange changes and various strange behaviors of the lord during this period of time, and asked tentatively, "Is this what you have been hoping to achieve?"

Duke was a little dumbfounded for a while, because he just came here by chance, and then followed the system's instructions step by step to get to where he is now.

As for now, he wants to live a better life in this wonderful world, so he has come up with so many novel ideas for the dwarves to help him realize.

In the end, this will inevitably touch the existing interests of the original natives, and it can be said that this is an inevitable process of development according to this trend.

This is also something he tries to avoid, so many times he doesn't listen to too radical changes, and only thinks about taking care of his territory on a small scale.

Because his thoughts now are not as great as he just told Lenia, but are full of his own selfish desires and evasions.

Looking at Lenia's bright eyes, Duke finally nodded in confirmation of her guess, burying her true thoughts in her heart.

"Then ......" Lenia took off the iron gloves she was wearing and hung them on her waist, stretched out her white right hand and handed it to Duke and said with a smile, "My lord, although I will definitely be abandoned by the times, you can trust my loyalty at any time. ”

Duke smiled and took the right hand that Lenia handed over, touched and helpless by her seriousness.

This Nizi is too easily touched, and from time to time she will solemnly express her determination to follow the lord, but it is impossible to refuse.

Maybe it's for the sake of these loyal vassals and subjects that they should work hard.

Duke thought to himself, then shook his head to dispel the thoughts, and sped towards the schoolyard with a cinch of his horse's belly.

"Lord, why did you suddenly want to patrol the barracks today?" asked Lenia as she sped up to follow, a little confused.

In fact, except for the first time to complete the morale-boosting task assigned by the system, Duke did not visit the barracks at any other time.

At first, I just felt that I didn't know much about the military of this era, and it was impossible to suddenly run over and point fingers when I was unfamiliar with it.

Later, he found that it would be perfect to leave this matter to Lenya, and it didn't take much thought on his part at all, so he gradually stopped caring about it.

As for why he is suddenly interested in making rounds now, it is mainly because he has been unable to complete the training tasks given by the system for a long time, and he has not been able to establish an army of 500 people for a long time.

Unable to complete this task, the system does not seem to give instructions on the next step, and he will not get more rewards, which makes him a little anxious.

Although recruiting and training has become so difficult, a large part of it is because he has put forward a lot of recruitment requirements that are somewhat strict in this era according to his ideal army, just like the previous Lenia complained about the need for people without any bad records to join the army.

"I just suddenly wanted to see the daily training and progress of our soldiers. Explaining vaguely to Lenia, Duke continued to drive his horse forward.

But today was destined to make him unable to complete the set arrangement as planned, and before he found another puff of smoke and dust following behind him and Lenia.

After unleashing an Eagle Eye spell on himself, Duke recognized the white banner of the herald and the emblem of the Church of Light carried by the knight who followed him.

He and Lenia stopped their horses and waited quietly for the herald knight to catch up with them.

They were all wondering what kind of message the Church would send to them at this time, and it had only been a few days since they had last met with the Archbishop of the diocese of Pyles, and it was hard to imagine that in just a few days something would happen that would require the use of this official herald to negotiate.

"Greetings, Lord Duke!"

The herald knight, dressed in a white burqa lined with chain mail, stopped ten meters away from Duke, turned over and dismounted, and performed a standard knightly salute.

He then pulled out an envelope with the seal of the Holy Emblem from under the protective armor on his chest and presented it to Duke.

Duke stretched out his hand to take the envelope, and the knight spoke, "The Patriarch said that the Lady Agnes will arrive in Connaughton in the near future, so please prepare accordingly in advance. ”

Duke paused to open the envelope, then unfolded the letter and began to read.

The letter was written by Archbishop Pyles, and his words were very modest and rigorous, and the meaning was similar to that of the Herald Knight.

It is said that Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden of the Church of Light will go to the Dukedom of the North to investigate the cultists and erosion, and hopes that Duke, as the master, can do his best as a landlord. It's just that this seems more formal, and it is an official level of negotiation.

"Has His Highness Agnes been in the North all along, and why was he able to come so quickly?"

Duke put away the letter and asked, a little confused.

Because the northern fortress is too far away from the Holy Radiance Cathedral in the middle of the continent, and now it is estimated that the last two reports have only arrived not long ago, if Agnes came from the Holy Radiance Cathedral, it will probably have to wait for such a long time, it is impossible to be as fast as now.

"His Majesty the Pope attaches great importance to the information submitted by the Duke, and I heard that it is very rare to use the teleportation circle in the Holy Radiance Cathedral, and at that time, the entire Pyles diocese saw the magic light inspired by the circle, thinking that the gods favored the north!"

The Herald Knight said with a proud and proud expression, apparently one of the witnesses he had spoken of, and a desire to express his strange sights.

But Duke didn't want to listen to his story, and waved him away after inquiring about other things, asking about the welcome specifications and etiquette.

The herald knight could only make a knightly salute with great regret, and re-carried the special letterbox, carrying the flag representing his identity, looking for a special reception messenger post to rest.

Duke had initially thought that the Church would be more concerned about erosion and cultists, but he hadn't expected it to be so aggressive.

The teleportation array under the Holy Radiance Cathedral is a giant magic array made by the sages who suppressed the erosion in the first place, gathering the top mages and resources of the entire continent.

At the same time, it also uses a lot of techniques that still seem strange now, and a variety of rare magical items.

Therefore, this teleportation formation is not replicable, and it is one of the hole cards of the Church of Light.

And it's also very powerful, as long as you build a second-level node or lower node anywhere on the mainland.

A steady stream of troops and supplies would converge from all directions to one point or transport them to various places, almost instantaneously.

Of course, the amount of energy required for this is also very terrifying, and most people will not expect to see it in their lifetime.

As a result, Duke still doesn't know if this unexpected attention is a good thing or a bad thing for his territory.

He temporarily suppressed the faint worry in his heart, turned to Lenia and said, "Lenia, let's discuss with Vlavic how to entertain the upcoming Holy Maiden in the future, the military camp can't be done!"
