There are many large and small nobles in the Kingdom of Xusen, and every nobleman who has made outstanding contributions to the kingdom or has military merits can be rewarded by the king, own a territory, and become a lord.

Most of the lords in the Kingdom of Xusen are cronies and confidants of the royal family, and some of them are family territories that have been passed down from the past to the monstrous military exploits.

Each lord has absolute rights over his territory, just like a king in the kingdom, but any lord must obey the king's orders and be subject to the rule of the kingdom of Xusen.

From the perspective of the laws and precepts of the Russen Kingdom, the Secret Stone Veins found in the territory of Edra have the right to recover and use them.

If Edra doesn't agree, then he's a traitor!

In the middle of the night, the Chamber of Commerce of the Awoken began to move, and the chamber of commerce knights continued to gather in the headquarters.

The knight brigade led by the senior knight of Ardley had a total of one hundred knights, including ten intermediate knights and ninety junior knights.

There are also a thousand professional soldiers, although they are all ordinary people, but the sum of a thousand soldiers is also a force that is not weak.

In addition, Yadli also suggested that Leonard gather the city guard, but Leonard refused: "We are only facing a declining nobleman this time, so we don't need to be so cautious. ”

Adriel continued: "Lord Duke, no matter how weak the enemy is, we should use all our strength to deal with it. ”

Leonard said with a smile: "A knight brigade and a thousand soldiers, this is already a strong enough force, I really can't think of any hole cards he can break the game." ”

This kind of combat power is enough to subvert a powerful aristocratic force in the country, how can a mere declining Edra family resist such a powerful combat force?

You must know that this time there are high-level knights leading the team, and there are only seven high-level knights in the entire Russen Kingdom.

Yard nodded and stopped talking, he could only command the army to fight, and he could only follow Leonard's orders in other respects.

"Let's go!"

Under Leonard's orders, the army prepared by the Chamber of Commerce of the Awakened began to leave the city of sand, and some people in the city learned the intelligence news, but they did not dare to make any changes, let alone spread it everywhere.

The Awakened Chamber of Commerce is much stronger than the Kenta Alliance Chamber of Commerce, so it's better not to provoke it.

"Let's go to bed first. ”

An Baichen closed the computer, and he recorded a lot of plans for the construction of the city, dense data and to-do items accumulated several pages of word documents.

Originally, he thought that this would be an easy task, but when he started to do it, he found that building a city was actually a very difficult thing, and all the details and plans needed to consume a lot of brain cells.

"I'm too sleepy, I'll continue to work hard tomorrow, and I'll make the skeleton soldiers tomorrow, and then I'll think about other things while building the city. ”

"By the way, I can ask Nigel to find some relevant professionals tomorrow and let these people help build the City of the Dead. ”

An Baichen dragged his tired body to the bed, fell headlong, and fell asleep.

......

Early the next morning, Anberson received a call from Nigel.

"Lord Death, I have prepared some of the materials and materials for the construction of the city, when will the Lord of God come and pick it up?"

Nigel's voice was a little apprehensive: "I can only prepare some of the materials and materials at present, and I still need to continue to prepare the Kenta Alliance Chamber of Commerce to slowly gather the follow-up city construction materials." ”

"It's okay, I know you're in trouble. ”

An Baichen glanced at the situation on Baron Edla's side, although he was already on his way, he still had a few days to reach the territory.

An Baichen said: "The materials for building the city will be placed with you for the time being, and the heavenly envoys will come to fetch them later." ”

"Yes, Lord Death. ”

Nigel breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There's one more thing I don't know if I should tell Lord Death or not. ”

"What's the matter? ”

"Lord Death, this morning, I received news that Leonard of the Chamber of Commerce of the Awoken left the Sand City with his army late last night and went deep in the direction of the Gobi. ”

"Army?Gobi?"

An Baichen frowned, he had a bad premonition, could it be that Leonard knew the location of Baron Edla's domain?

"How many troops did he bring?"

"What I know for sure at the moment is that he has taken at least one brigade of knights, presumably by the Adeli High Knights, at least a hundred knights, or the city guards and some soldiers. ”

Nigel paused, then added, "There is speculation that he may have been tracking Mr. Edla, and so do I." ”

The only person in the entire Sand City who deserves Leonard's excitement is Mr. Edla.

When all eyes were on Nigel, Leonard, the sinister old fellow, began to look for the big fish of Edra without moving.

"No need to guess, he must have gone to find Edla. ”

An Baichen sneered and said, "He's paying attention to the secret stone veins. ”

"Isn't Edra in danger?"

"No, he won't be in danger. ”

An Baichen shook his head, and his tone was indifferent: "Edra handed over the ownership of the secret stone vein to the Divine Envoy yesterday, and this secret stone vein has been the property of the City of the Dead since yesterday. ”

"Leonard's attempt to get his hands on the Secret Stone Vein is against me!"

An Baichen's words did not carry the slightest emotion, and he would never allow anyone to infringe on his interests.

Leonard is really insane.

He probably didn't know that he was fighting a god.

Nigel couldn't help but tremble when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Lord Death, do you want me to assist Lord Divine Envoy?"

"The knight guards around me are still well preserved, as well as the undead warriors and Lord Gu Liangchen that you gave me, they can all participate in the battle!"

In the face of Nigel's suggestion, An Baichen smiled: "Do you think I will need to use your part of the force?"

If it was the former An Baichen, he might be helpless in the face of Leonard's aggression, but the world of the undead has been upgraded twice and has many powerful undead.

A high-ranking knight may be a formidable foe, but not so strong that it is invincible.

Nigel was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly.

Lord Death is so powerful, naturally he doesn't need his own help, Nigel said: "Lord Death, if you need my help, please feel free to ask, I am willing to sacrifice everything for you." ”

Nigel has put his identity in the City of the Dead with Lord Death, and he is smart enough to know what to do and when, and how to make himself more profitable.

"I do have other plans for you. ”

An Baichen nodded and said, "You are now a member of the City of the Dead, no longer an ordinary summoner of the dead, and your interests are closely related to the City of the Dead." ”

"I know, Lord Death, what do you need me to do?"

"Since Leonard wants to attack the Secret Stone Vein, then he is the enemy of the City of the Dead, and your enemy. I need you to stay in Sand City, and take advantage of Leonard's departure from Sand City to fully annex and confiscate the wealth of the Awoken Chamber of Commerce!"

An Baichen squinted his eyes slightly, and his tone was solemn: "I want him to fetch water in a bamboo basket, and in the end he won't get anything!"

An Baichen never felt that he was a good person, and he didn't want to be a bad person if he could.

But real life is never about being the person you want to be, and everyone is not absolutely good and bad. An Baichen is a god of death, who holds an entire world of the dead, and he does not want to become an evil god in the eyes of the apologists.

But he doesn't mind unleashing the power of the undead at the right time to destroy a greedy man like Leonard!

"Lord Death......

Nigel hesitated for a moment and said, "Leonard leaving with most of the knights is indeed a good time to take advantage of the situation, and I am also sure to take this opportunity to suppress and annex the Chamber of Commerce of the Awakened." ”

"But...... If I do this, even if I annex the Chamber of Commerce of the Awoken, I will provoke the hostility and hatred of the Ruin Forest Kingdom. ”

"Although the Sand City is a three-way zone, it still nominally belongs to the Ruin Forest Kingdom, and the Kenta Alliance Chamber of Commerce is not qualified to be the opponent of the Ruin Forest Kingdom, and I can't face the revenge of an entire kingdom. ”

Nigel whispered, "If I annex the Chamber of Commerce of the Awoken, the last thing may be that I will be forced to give up most of the possessions and wealth of Sand City and flee from the territory of Sand City and the Russen Kingdom in order to save my life. ”

"If I lose my wealth in the Sand City, God's plan to build the City of the Dead may not be carried out. ”

"Even if I swear not to leave Sand City and protect these wealth, the final outcome will be that the entire Sand City will be taken back under the jurisdiction of the Ruin Forest Kingdom, and a person in charge will be arranged to take over the Awakened Chamber of Commerce in Sand City from an early age. ”

Nigel was honest and did not hide his fear of death and his fear of the Ruin Forest Kingdom, and during the time he communicated with Lord Death, he roughly figured out Lord Death's temper.

Honest communication often leads to unexpected support and benefits.

"Are you worried about the revenge of the Russen Kingdom?"

"Yes, Lord Death. ”

"No worries at all. ”

An Baichen shook his head and said: "You have annexed the Chamber of Commerce of the Awakened, the City of Sand belongs to you, I will provide you with corresponding military support, and provide enough undead warriors for free to protect the City of Sand and protect your wealth." ”

"Nigel, you have to remember that if you listen to me, you have more to gain than you have to lose. ”

An Baichen's words are meaningful.

Undead warriors are available for free to protect the Sand City, and the riches of the Sand City are all your own!

Nigel couldn't refuse such a temptation, and he decisively agreed: "Lord Death, don't worry! If Leonard returns to Sand City, he will find that the Awoken Chamber of Commerce no longer belongs to him!"

"No, he has no life to go back, he will be buried in the Gobi. ”

Amberson hung up the phone and dialed Baron Edra again, relaying the news that Nigel had received to Baron Edla.

"What? Leonard will take a high-ranking knight and a hundred knights and chase me again!"

Baron Edla's face turned pale, and his legs were weak: "Lord Death, what should I do?"

It's not that he's too cowardly, he's a little Gobi lord who hasn't seen much of the world, and his life has changed dramatically since he came into contact with Lord Death.

Now they are all hunted down by the high-ranking knights, which is something that Baron Edra never dared to think of before.

"Panic what!"

An Baichen let out a low sigh: "You farmers all get into the bodies of the minecart skeletons, abandon all the wooden transporters, and set off with all your might. ”

"The speed of the minecart skeleton is much faster than that of the warhorse, unless the high-level knight and the middle-level knight come to chase it alone, he will not be able to catch up with your speed, and you will rush back to the territory before him. ”

An Baichen paused and said, "During this time, I will prepare enough undead warriors to help you defend against the enemy invasion this time." ”

Lord Death is willing to provide undead warriors to defeat the enemy!

Baron Edra breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly thought of a question, and asked tremblingly, "What about ...... Lord Death, do I still need to pay for the undead warriors you provided this time?"

"I've given you all the secret stone veins, and I don't have the money to pay for the sacrifice now......"

Baron Edla's voice was aggrieved, frightened and uneasy, and An Baichen was angry and laughed in his heart: "No, these undead warriors are free!"

Even if I try to ask for the sacrifice again, you don't have anything to give me now.

"You are now the lord of the City of the Dead, and I help you defend the City of the Dead, and you don't need to pay sacrifices, these spirits are counted as the military power of the City of the Dead. ”

An Baichen paused and said, "It was originally your privilege as a city lord to use the military power of the City of the Dead to protect yourself and your territory for free. ”

"Thank you, Lord Death, you are so generous!"

"Don't be verbose, hurry up. ”

An Baichen gave a few more commands, then hung up the phone and began to think about how to deal with Leonard and his knight brigade.
