Wen Dao, who was granted the position of lord representative by Long Ji, has the highest authority to manage Gulambel. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 However, the rights and obligations are equal, and while the overall management of Gurumbel means that Wendao must take ultimate responsibility for all the affairs of this land. Therefore, although it hurt to be poked by the female general's eyes, Wen Dao still endured the pain while inquiring in detail about the wolf cavalry and the ambush.

If he had expected, the strange settlement built within the wreckage of the Goddess of Fury was none other than the Pioneer Village of the Lenstads, and there were eight more of the same Pioneer Village nearby. The reason for this is that this plain area between glaciers and hills, with fertile soil and abundant water, is one of the few suitable lands on the frozen planet to cultivate. Since the Lensta people occupied the Red Iron Fortress half a century ago, in order to make full use of this blessed land, they have successively built nine pioneering villages around it.

The food produced by these nine pioneer villages is like a lifeline for the Lensta Kingdom, and the people of Lensta spare no effort to protect the pioneer villages. The Redstone Fortress is permanently manned by a Frontier Knights, who are active in driving away the hazards of the Icefield Barbarians and the Snowy Beasts. Under the skilful command of General Hannibal, the Frontier Knights do serve as the lifeblood of the kingdom, except for one thing.

The landing craft painted with the white wolf insignia first appeared about thirty years ago, and without warning, they suddenly attacked three pioneer villages. By the time the Knights rushed to the report, the strange perpetrators had flown away, leaving behind the utterly destroyed village and the weeping villagers in the rubble - the initial shelling of the perpetrators was said to have been directed towards uninhabited land, apparently to give the villagers time to flee.

With the perpetrators left no clues, the villagers rebuilt their homes with grief and doubts. In order to prevent a recurrence, the old general even sent a detachment to guard the village - but another attack a few years later proved that the knights on the ground were not much different from the villagers for the fierce gunboats floating in the air.

The Border Knights, lacking air combat power, could not reach the feet of the abusers even with all their might, and launched a carpet search of the surrounding area but could not find the opponent's stronghold. Although the wolf cavalry attacks were irregular, the frequency was not too high, allowing the village to struggle through constant destruction and reconstruction. The Frontier Knights' stance of clearing the ruins and rebuilding the village has made the Frontier Knights grit their teeth at the wolf cavalry, and this powerless resentment has finally taken a turn for the better recently.

The turnaround came from the city of Lübeck.

The fact that the dragon envoy decisively defeated the Viper Bandits greatly liberated the originally stretched human resources of the Knights of the Royal City, and the several landing craft under the command of the advance base added wings to the Knights. After receiving a request for help from the Redstone Fortress, Matyua immediately rushed to the front with the reorganized Sky Knights, and worked out an ambush plan with General Hannibal. The ambush plan was fully assisted by the residents of the pioneer village, and so there was the scene that Wendao saw.

However, the Liansta people still underestimated the combat effectiveness of the wolf cavalry, if it weren't for Wen Dao's help at a critical moment, the newly formed Sky Knight team would probably usher in the fate of dying halfway.

"So you don't know where those wolf cavalry came from?"

"Yes, after all, this is the first time we have captured an opposing soldier. The old general nodded calmly in response. "The two men have been locked up in a dungeon, guarded by two brigades of knights. Hopefully, those questions will be clarified in the next interrogation. ”

The veteran general, who had a high respect for the Holy Dragon Envoy, assured Fumidao that he would ensure the value of the two captives as a source of information. Although Wen Dao was somewhat concerned about the origin of the two wolf cavalrymen, he decided to entrust the matter to the expert first, and left the conference room on the pretext of inspecting the fortress.

"Those wolf cavalrymen fell to Grumbell with the Goddess of Fury, right?"

Wen Dao, who left the conference room, asked the mental model in the uninhabited corridor.

"It's 97.5 percent likely. The old madman replied immediately.

"So it's likely that they've been lurking in Grumbell for a century or two?"

This speculation made Wen Dao shudder. The elite warband, known as the "Emperor's Son", is encamped on the surface of the planet, of course, it is impossible to serve the four modernizations of the Dragon Lord, but the course of action seems to be good or bad and lacks enough tendencies - perhaps, as the old general said, the truth can only be plucked out of the mouths of the two captives.

"What the hell is going on on this planet......"

Wen Tao couldn't help rubbing his temples with a headache. Whether it was the Black Hole Ship, the Fury Goddess, the Wolf Cavalry, or the Energy Storm, there were too many unfamiliar elements gathered on the Gulambell, and the unexpected unfolding like an angry wave made Wen Dao feel like he was out of breath.

"What's going on?"

There was such an inquiry behind him. Wen Dao looked back and saw Matyuya walking from the other end of the corridor with a greeting expression.

"Thinking about something, do you want me to do something?"

Wen Dao's question was not answered immediately, and the female general looked him from top to bottom as if she was sure of something. "I thought you wouldn't care about this side of things anymore after you went back to the Dragon Palace, but I didn't expect to come back quite quickly. ”

Matyuya's voice didn't seem to have good intentions or malice, but considering that Grumbel had been given up by the former lord to manage the black history for centuries, the female general's concerns probably represented the state of mind of most Lienstas. Wen Dao, who understood this, exhaled and announced directly.

"I have been appointed by His Highness as the lord's representative, and from now on I will be fully responsible for all the affairs of Kulambel. If you have any demands for the Dragon Palace, you can come to me directly, and you don't have to worry about finding a contact channel anymore. ”

"Liege representative? that is, the meaning of the liege?"

Maybe the happiness came too suddenly, and it took a moment for Matyuya to understand. Looking at the black-haired young man in front of her, the female general nodded thoughtfully. "I see...... That's right...... That's good. Although it is somewhat lacking in courage, if you are the acting lord, at least our side will be more at ease. ”

"I'm sorry for the lack of courage. ”

"Don't mind, I'm complimenting you. Matyuya waved her hand. "Even if it doesn't seem very reliable on the outside, you're willing to bother with the affairs of Qurumbell, so it's fitting that you're a current lord. ”

"Thank you for your appreciation, and please support me in the future. ”

Taking Matyuya's nod as the approval of the lords, Bundao thanked the female general with his palms.

"Then Lord Acting Lord, what is the purpose of coming to Gurumbert this time?" the female general unceremoniously turned to the topic. "Look at the way you frown, are you in trouble? I haven't asked you why you're over there in Pioneer Village. ”

"It's a long story, so I'll make a long story short......"

The Temple of Oblivion records the apocalyptic history of Grumbert being drawn into an interstellar war, so the Rystadians are no strangers to the concept of galactic starlands. Wen Dao thought about it, and there seemed to be no reason to hide it, so he sighed and explained what happened a little.

From receiving the task of establishing a garrison and expanding the border defense area in the Dragon Palace, to the encounter of being shot down by a black hole ship in low earth orbit, to the energy storm with an unknown body, and finally ending with the karma of the Goddess of Fury and the wolf cavalry. A huge amount of information poured out one after another, not to mention the half-understood Matyuya, and even the narrator himself fell into a muddy and waddling predicament in the end.

“…… The problems that had accumulated in the past had not been dealt with, and new troubles had followed, and the situation of Gurumbel was much more serious than expected, and it was difficult to grasp the point when they all came together. Finally, Wen Dao ended his statement with a deep breath.

A few steps away, in the red pupils, the figure of the acting lord who had done his best for Gulambert was reflected. Useless words like "It's really hard", Matyuya can't say. Turning her gaze to the school yard below the hallway, after a few seconds of silence, the female general slowly spoke.

"You know what? I grew up in this redstone fortress. ”

"What?" Wen Dao blinked.

"In the past, the territory of the Lensta Kingdom was much larger than it is now, and farther north of the Redstone Fortress was a small territory called Setis, where my grandfather and father served as lords. The female general's gaze stayed on the school grounds, and only the voice flowed in the memories. "But that year, the Ice Barbarians suddenly invaded Setis, and it was menacing...... When the Frontier Knights arrived, the realm was in ruins, and the lord was hanged in the middle of the realm. ”

"Hey, Hey, ......"

"I was rescued by the Border Knights and returned to the Redstone Fortress, and later General Hannibal adopted me and taught me military strategy and martial arts. At the age of eighteen, I was recommended by the Shogun to serve as an advisor to the Pegasus Knights in Leubek, and I have remained there ever since...... However, when I left the fortress, I never expected to come back in such a form. ”

Matyuya's gaze fell on the landing craft moored in the school grounds, and Wendao's gaze followed. While understanding the female general somewhat, I can't help but have some doubts.

"Well, why are you telling me this?"

"We don't know what we're going to do in the future, we just have to do what we can do one thing at a time. Ma Qiuya looked at Wen Dao, and the red jade's eyes flashed with a gentle light that she had never seen before. "The future is difficult, but please do your best, Lord Daisei,"

"Thank you, thank you. ”

"If you need to relax, I'm always there. ”

"Thank you!"
