Chapter 682: Promotion

In the early morning, the dawn sun shines on the earth and turns into wisps of golden thread.

In the castle of the Shawshank family, the atmosphere did not have much joy and joy of victory in the Great War.

Because just last night, when they defeated the Frey's army, Baron Shawshank, the knight's lord, the master of the land, died of his wounds, leaving behind a big mess.

Sir Frey didn't have to worry about it anymore, the other party died in the explosion as early as last night when the door was closed.

However, Bishop Daniel, because of his extraordinary strength, left a small life and became a prisoner.

At this time, he was tied up with some other valuable captives and sealed in a dungeon to await trial.

And in the Baroness's drawing-room, the Baroness's eyes were red and swollen, and she had apparently cried more than once.

"Since Lord Baron is dead, Timo should succeed him as the new Baron Shawshank!"

Fang Yuan, Gray, and several other leading figures of the castle gathered, and after a short discussion, they immediately decided to make Timus their new lord, and saluted the baron, who had changed into new clothes and looked restrained and sad.

Of course, given that the Baroness was still too young to handle many affairs, it was only natural that the Baroness should take care of them.

"Ahem...... Ladies and gentlemen! ”

After discussing this series of matters, Knight Gray got the eyes of the master mother and coughed: "There is another issue, that is, the engagement between Sir Rune and Tanya, the baron has always intended to promote it during his lifetime, and at this time, we can't let the soul of the underworld not rest in peace after his death......"

"What do you think, Sir Lune?"

The former baroness looked at Fang Yuan.

'Since you have even brought out the baron's soul to talk about it, what else can I refute?' ’

Fang Yuan secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, and a hesitant look appeared on his face: "I naturally don't have any problems, it's just that the baron has just passed away......

"It doesn't matter, you can skip the wedding for the time being, just make a wedding contract first!" A scholar-looking man next to him immediately spoke.

"Yes, let's do it! Master Luwen, you go and prepare another gift! ”

The Baroness wiped her reddened eyes: "The Baron is ready to give the Storm Hills as a dowry to Sir Rune!" ”

"Storm Hills?"

Fang Yuan was taken aback.

It was just a small hill bordering his territory, and it wasn't a big deal in the first place.

But the point is that after adding this piece, his territory will be completely linked to the thousand-acre enclave where Whistling Manor is located, forming a new fief with Storm Hills as the center and almost two knight territories!

In this way, he instantly surpassed many knights and became the number one powerful faction under the new baron.

This is both a pull and a split! ’

Fang Yuan looked around, although many people's eyes were smiling, the meaning inside was a little intriguing.

This is still the case when he led the soldiers to the big victory last night!

If you don't have any meritorious deeds, you will accept these fiefdoms, and I am afraid that you will immediately become the target of public criticism, right?

Fang Yuan sneered in his heart, feeling the kind of soft knife culture among the nobles, it was indeed killing people without seeing blood.

But where is the reason not to eat the meat that is brought to your mouth? ’

He smiled: "Since it is the baron's hospitality, I will thank him on behalf of Tanya!" ”

Gray looked at this scene and couldn't help but bow his head.

If the Baron could survive to this day, seeing the brilliant victory of Lune last night, it would inevitably change his previous approach.

Unfortunately, by this time, it was too late.

However, it was just an additional knight's domain that made Lune the first knight under the baron's command...... After all, he is a newly promoted nobleman, and if he wants to integrate the territory and increase his strength, it is not a matter of one or two years......

Thinking so, Gray suddenly calmed down.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that there was a kind of person in this world who did things completely beyond the expectations of others.

"Okay, the last thing, it's the prisoner issue this time!"

Fang Yuan threw out this difficult problem and immediately fell silent, as if waiting for the opinions of others.

At this time, the ordinary soldier was defeated, either waiting for his lord or family to pay for redemption, or was relegated to slavery, and there was already a set of rules.

But what Fang Yuan was talking about was not those ordinary soldiers, but Bishop Daniel and some liaison from other churches.

Without their help, Sir Frey would not have had the power to challenge the Baron, or even besiege the Baron's Castle.

It's just that they really shout and kill, except for Fang Yuan, no one here has this courage - after all, they are people of the church, even if they meddle in the world, they can't judge at will!

So, everyone lowered their heads and looked thoughtful.

Seeing this, Fang Yuan couldn't help but smile slightly: "Since you all have no ideas, why don't I say how about disposing of it?" Give them as a gift to the Grand Duke. ”

Although these captives are a bit hot for a baron, they are not necessarily for the Grand Duke.

It may even be used as some bargaining chips, although it may not be very important, but it is better than nothing.

"That's a great idea!"

The Baroness's eyes lit up, and when she saw that the others were nodding their heads, she immediately said, "Just do it!" ”

Seeing this, Fang Yuan immediately smiled secretly in his heart.

These nobles, afraid of the pressure of the church and the kingdom of Notte, but do not want to lose their autonomy, have always been like ostriches.

Unfortunately, what they didn't know was that the Kingdom of Nott might not have the opportunity to invade the Duchy of Stan at all.

Because, the world is about to undergo drastic changes!

……

The world of great dryness, in the cave sky.

The storm swept and the rain poured down, and the ocean, which was originally quiet as a virgin, instantly turned into a roaring beast under the action of the strong wind, setting off stormy waves.

In such a terrifying environment, a three-masted sailing ship stubbornly supported it and did not sink.

Crash!

A wave hit, and a huge amount of sea water rushed onto the deck, sweeping away a large amount of supplies and sailors.

The ship's mast was cut early, and it was left to drift in the storm.

"Left full rudder!"

In the cockpit, Ge Fei was wearing a gray shirt, revealing his broad chest and acquaintance abs, and roared hysterically at this time: "Idiots, if you don't want to die, quickly find a rope to tie yourself to the boat!" ”

Due to the increase in his fighting spirit, his figure was as steady as Mount Tai at this time, and his eyes were as sharp as a falcon: "The sea, you can't stop me, I will definitely find the legendary Treasure Island!" ”

……

The night passed, the sky was clear, and the white seagulls chirped in the sun.

The sea returned to calm, as if everything that happened last night was just a nightmare.

Gaffy put down the steering wheel, returned to the captain's room, and began to write a certain letterhead: "Your Majesty Wellington: I am sorry that my ship was unable to complete its ocean voyage on time due to a sudden storm, but please believe me, and I am more and more sure of my reasoning that our continent is not alone, and that there must be its brothers and sisters in this world......"

“…… Thank you again for your sponsorship, which has made it possible for me to sail the ocean, and I will dedicate all the charts and routes to Your Majesty as agreed...... Yesterday we were hit by a great storm that deflected our course and we don't know how far we were from our original goal, may the God of Creation bless us......"

……

"Captain, you'd better come out and have a look!"

Just as Ge Fei was writing, a hurried footstep came, and his first mate tapped on the door: "Ahead...... Discover the harbor! ”

"Huh? Ports, this doesn't seem to be our supply islands? Could it be that a storm last night blew us back home? Thank God the Father! ”

Gaffy gestured in prayer.

"Nope! That's not our city! ”

The first mate's expression was a little frightened: "It's a whole new world!" ”

"A new world?!"

Startled, Ge Fei came to the lookout and held up a telescope.

In his sight, a continent suddenly appeared in front of him, and a huge port stood quietly.

Above, a large number of ships are moored, and the shape is completely different from the ships of the Avalon Empire.

"With such a large port, it can be ranked among the top five in China, right? And also...... On the other side, it seems to be a human ...... as well."

Ge Fei muttered, and suddenly, with a hint of a smile: "Everyone, we will all be recorded in history because of the great geographical discoveries, of course, more colloquially...... We're going rich! ”

"Whew!"

The sailors cheered.

In this era, the sailors who can risk their lives to fight are generally poor people with nothing or even exiles from all over the world, and the only driving force that stimulates them is gold and silver wealth!

At this time, I saw hope, and I couldn't suppress it anymore.

"I don't know how big this land is, and whether the empire can send troops to conquer it...... Or, just as a business object? ”

As Gaffey pondered, their ships were apparently spotted in the harbor.

After a commotion, several huge ships departed, surrounded by many small ships, and surrounded his ship.

Ge Fei keenly noticed that the flag that the other party was flying was a black mountain, and he didn't know what it meant.

At this time, on the opposite deck, a warrior in armor appeared, speaking loudly in an incomprehensible alien language.

If you were an ordinary mountain countryman, you would immediately know that this was their patrol captain, who was issuing a final warning to the invaders: "You have entered the border of the mountain country, immediately lay down your weapons and accept inspection, otherwise you will not be prepared for it!! ”

……

The conflict between mortals, Fang Yuan was unwilling to take care of it.

However, at the moment when the civilizations of the Light and Dark Continent and the Five Elements Continent converged, a great power was suddenly generated, turning into a holy light, pushing the entire Cave Heaven to rise.

"Dongtian, promoted!"

The true spirit that he returned in an instant let out a surprise fluctuation: "If it goes on like this, it is not a dream to turn into a world in the future!" ”
