Late at night, the Lord's Mansion of the Grey Moon Fortress.

"Master Simon, please use it."

The maid with a childish face served the tea, and her eyes flashed as she looked at the handsome black-haired young man in front of her.

Simon Ed.

Known as the morning star of the empire, this young man has captivated countless nobles and celebrities with his humorous and interesting conversation, intelligence and wisdom.

Of course, none of this is actually the main thing.

The most important thing is that Simon is rich.

Extraordinarily rich!

As the successor of the high-ranking Ed family, as long as Simon is willing, he can even make Lokarence, known as the Holy Capital of Mother Earth, rain gold coins.

And Simon has now been promoted to the lord of the Gray Moon Fortress, and as the youngest lord of the empire, there is no problem in saying that he has a bright future.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable for the aristocratic ladies in the imperial capital to flatter him frequently.

But this is such a Simon Lord, who has nothing to do with sorrow, but now his face is full of sorrow, and he sighs twice from time to time.

Looking at the master's appearance, the maid also sighed in her heart.

And it's no wonder.

Recently, news has come from the imperial capital, and it seems that some witch cultists of the old religion have passed through the level and are heading straight for the Gray Moon Fortress.

And the purpose of these fanatical witch cultists is naturally only one -

Attack and kill the Lord of the Grey Moon Fortress, who has only been on the throne for a month.

Simon Eddard is also a devout devout believer in Mother Earth, and it is rumored that the witch old cultists who fell into his hands were either cut off or their internal organs were hollowed out to make potions.

Therefore, when he rushed to this border fortress to take up his post, he was also attacked and killed by many witches and old cultists.

But even in such a time of panic, none of his men abandoned the lord and left.

The reason for this is simple.

Because Simon is rich!

Extraordinarily rich!

Of course, in addition to the simple point of 'being rich', Young Master Simon is also very good at winning people's hearts.

In short, it is an incomparably honorable honor to serve such a wise and intelligent lord.

Thinking of this, the maid lowered her body and asked softly:

"Is Master Simon worried about the affairs of the old witches? However, the Earth Mother Holy Maiden Elitoa will come to the Grey Moon Fortress in a few days, and with the power of the benevolent and forgiving Earth Mother God, the Witch Old Cultists should not be worried, right? ”

Mother Earth Lady Elitoya? The benevolent and tolerant Mother Earth Goddess?

Simon stood up while rubbing the pattern on the tea set with his fingertips.

"Lorena, do you know how much gold I've donated to Mother Earth Church so far?"

"Uh-" Lorena looked stunned and was about to answer.

"You don't have to answer." Simon stretched out his hand to interrupt.

"Uhh

"So far, the Earth Mother Church has taken 13,059 gold coins from me, so the question arises again, why should I take the initiative to pay this amount to the Earth Mother Church?"

"Uhh

"You don't have to answer." Simon raised his hand to suppress what she wanted to say.

"Yes—" Lorena shut.

"It's because the money is due to Mother Earth Church." Simon sat down again, took a sip of black tea and continued, "You should be wondering why I said that this is what the Earth Mother Church deserves. ”

"No... That one... I know—" Lorena's mouth opened, then immediately closed again.

She saw Simon staring at her.

Seeing that she did not answer, Simon continued:

"Because the Mother Earth Church expropriates the property of the rich for all kinds of 'legitimate' reasons, and then stores all these gold coins in their own temples, even if I don't pay them voluntarily, the money will be shaved away exactly a penny. Do you understand? ”

"I... I understand. Lorina's face turned red and she was holding back her hard.

Simon nodded with satisfaction and said, "You go out first, and close the door by the way." ”

"Yes." For the master's words, Lolina, as a personal maid, did not dare to refute anything.

She bowed her head and saluted Simon before leaving respectfully with small steps.

Seeing Lorena leave, Simon couldn't help but rub his temples.

No way, the pressure has been too much lately, if you don't relieve the pressure through this means. Simon even felt like he was going bald.

Thinking so, Simon squinted at the culprit who had caused him so much stress.

It was a screen of light floating silently beside him.

At his coming-of-age ceremony a month ago, this light screen suddenly appeared in front of him.

As long as his mind moves, he will appear like this, floating beside him.

As for the above...

"The game Ivey Continent is coming soon! All-light brain calculus game! Super high degree of freedom to play! Open 24 hours to play, continue to care for your liver! Now you can also enjoy a 9.9% discount when you order a game helmet! ”

“？？？？” Simon.

These words forced him to tug at the black hair that was falling from his ears.

An all-optical brain calculus game?

Super high degree of freedom to play?

Can gaming headsets still enjoy a 9.9% discount?

What's on it? Is it the language of the devil?

What does it mean to go live?

What does light brain mean?

9.9% off... Well, I can understand that.

Anyway, look at the light screen called 'Ivey Continent Player Forum'.

Simon only felt like a native living in the far east of the continent of Ivey.

But if you look at some of the things below that are called 'posts', Simon can almost understand something.

""Ivey Continent" has been skipping tickets for more than half a year and is finally going to be launched?!"

"All-optical brain real-time calculus? I'm a good girl, even the hottest "Brilliant" is not so powerful! ”

"Woohoo! Grandfather! Wake up! The game you're following is finally coming online! ”

"This wave, this wave is the launch of "Ivey Continent".

There are many, many more reviews like these below.

"I'll drop a good girl..."

Looking at these comments, even Simon couldn't help but whisper a demonic voice.

He counted it in a month, and there were almost more than 100,000 replies from this message alone... The number of likes is one or two million likes.

To what extent?

The imperial capital, the largest city in the empire, was only inhabited by just over 100,000 people.

As for one or two million likes-

Forgive Simon, he now thinks he's just an indigenous man as the lord of a city.

"That's outrageous, isn't it?"

After a long period of nurturing in the player forum, Simon subconsciously used the 'devil's language'.

First of all, the light screen is not an illusion, nor is it that some person has used some kind of spell on themselves.

Because Simon specially invited the highest priest in the Earth Mother God Cult to apply purification magic to himself for the sake of this floating light screen.

It costs a lot of money.

It really cost a lot of money.

But this light screen still exists.

And it seems that no one else can see it except Simon.

Then the next question arises.

Since the content on the light screen is not an illusion, what about the message on it?

Simon's index finger increased its strength, and his originally flexible black hair was straightened, and his scalp was pulled painfully.

Think, think again.

Wisdom exalts people and makes them understand.

Over the course of a month, Simon has gained a lot of information on a screen called the 'Player Forum'.

First of all, most of these creatures that leave messages call themselves players.

And the game they are talking about, "Ivey Continent", has the same name as the Ivey Continent they are in.

So can this be assumed?

What they call 'going online' is actually coming to this continent.

'Open the server' is actually to open the barriers between that world and this world.

Simon stood up, leaning sideways on the windowsill, looking at the twin moons and shining stars in the deep night sky, and he thought of the ancient legends passed down from mouth to mouth in the Ivey Continent.

Legend has it that one day, a group of uninvited guests will come to the continent of Ive.

They start out as weak, but gradually they become stronger through various channels.

Some of them are weak, some are strong; Some are greedy and do all kinds of evil, some are kind and gentle...

Legend has it that this group of people are called the Scourge Red Star.

This is not to mean that the arrival of this group of uninvited guests will bring immediate natural disasters.

Rather, if they wanted to, the entire continent would fall into a catastrophe like a natural disaster.

"Did a natural disaster strike...?"

Simon looked at the numbers on the blue light screen.

The countdown to the start of "Ivey Continent" - 11 hours, 5 minutes and 12 seconds.

“... Anything else—" Simon looked up at the sparkling stars in the sky.

Three months to go... There are still three months to go.

Until then, we'll have to get our hands on the last of what is left of the ruins of the Old Witch Church.

If you don't get that piece within three months... Your life will be at risk. At that point, no amount of talk will be enough.

"Now the arrival of the Scourge's Red Star... Is this problem solved? ”

Simon tugged at his hair.

Anyway... The arrival of the Scourge Red Star... It's not just about the ruins of the Old Witch Church.

Calm Continental Pattern... The feeling is also going to be broken.
