Anton and Zoya nominally believed in Tiamat, but in fact they were not very religious about the "Mother of Dragons", and there were many dragons like them who lacked religious zeal, and under the guidance of the two, the unbelievers and hypocrites also made honest choices, and finally gathered on the right side of the square no less than 20,000 people, of which about 5,000 were soldiers.

The crowd in the square split into two groups, and Andrea stood in the center and announced to the crowd: "I will lead the devout disciples of Tiamat to the Twilight Valley, it will be a difficult and tortuous journey, and when we reach the end of the journey, we will begin to rebuild our home; The others remain in Dragon City to wait for the new lord to take over, and he has made a promise to me that your life will not be worse than before. ”

The Dragonveins may have different opinions about her decision, but everyone must admit that it takes a lot of courage and devout faith to make a living in the Twilight Dales, a treacherous place where the undead and half-vampires fret, and without faith to support it, why leave the comfort of their lives and choose to leave their homeland? As for the potential risks that accompany the arrival of foreign rulers, everyone will be worried, but before the upstarts in Dragon City have implemented brutal rule, people are more willing to give good expectations for the future, not to mention that Andrea also publicly endorses the new lord, promising that this person will not abuse everyone.

Those who chose to stay in the square returned home, and after the night passed, there was a slight back-and-forth, with more people wanting to stay, and some changing their minds and following Andrea to the Twilight Valley, but the overall change was not much. In the end, there were more than 30,000 people left behind by the dragon vein clan, plus nearly 20,000 humans, dwarves and elves engaged in technical work in the city, and the status in the city was only a third-class citizen in the past. Aside from these 50,000 or so, the half-dragons in the city, who had a lot of wealth, were not so calm, and whether they were devout followers of Tiamat or not, they were scrambling to squeeze into the skeleton warships bound for the Twilight Valley, lest they stay and be liquidated.

After further consultations, the coalition command signed a communiqué with the four generals of the "Dragon's Eye" on the transfer of Dragon City and its subsequent governance. The Allied Command promised to take over the Dragon Fortress peacefully and treat captives, women and children kindly; Dragonvein clans who do not want to leave their homeland can stay and live there, but they must submit to the management of the new lord of Dragon City.

Rudolph himself refused to become Lord of Dragon City, giving up the honor to his son, a decision made out of far-reaching considerations. He held the rank of Imperial Army, and according to the laws of the Empire, all the lands conquered by the Imperial generals would be included in the Imperial territory, and they could only obtain fiefs from the Emperor, Princes, and High Priests by means of fiefdoms.

Rudolph didn't want to make a wedding dress for others, and in his report to Archbishop Philip, he only said that the "Dragon's Eye" gang was exterminated, but did not mention how to deal with the territory left by the "Dragon's Eye". Soon after, in the presence of the Beowulf couple and the senior generals of the Kolas Army, Rudolph arranged for his son to retire with the rank of second lieutenant of the Holy Assanian Empire, and publicly renounced the citizenship of the Holy Assanian Empire, so that Roland could rightfully become the lord of Dragon City without the need to be canonized by the imperial government. Of course, this would be treasonous, but the Kolas father and son didn't care, and the war in the north ended, and the next plan was to return to the Fort of Atonement, have a showdown with Archbishop Philip, and seize the supreme power in the Far East.

Perhaps due to Andrea's influence, the Dragonvein clan generally has a good impression of Roland, and prefers to accept the rule of the general's scandalous lover rather than the old enemy Kitlanders, not to mention that Roland invited Zoya, Anton and Vigraf to be his deputies on the first day of his tenure to preside over the daily management of Dragon City. Zoya and Anton are the leaders of the Dragonvein clan after Andrea, and Viglaf has both a Kitlandan background and Andrea's brother, an arrangement that is widely accepted by all parties, and the residents of Dragontown settle down in fear of the change of power, and life resumes to normal.

Roland not only took over the second largest city in the Northlands after Kitland with a population of more than 50,000, but also acquired the most important shipping terminal in the upper reaches of the Veres River, and joined forces with the Kitlanders to divide up large areas of woodland, mines and ranches that were originally controlled by the Dragon's Eye.

The moment Andrea received the list of assets in Dragon City and its surrounding areas, Roland realized that the most valuable assets in this list were nearly 100 fine pastures scattered between mountains and lakes. For three days in a row, he took Vigraf on a field tour of all these ranches, and sent some small gifts to appease the herders hired by the "Dragon's Eye", promising them that their lives would be business as usual, and that they would only need to graze their cattle for the new owners, and that they would not need to worry about the change of power in the upper echelons of Dragon City.

After the visit, Roland wrote a plan for the plateau pasture, one for his father's reference, and the other to Valentina, in which he asked for help from Sister Jinlong. Valentina's response was swift and grand, and she sent her request to visit the highland ranch in person as soon as she received the letter. The founder of the "Harvest Ring" visited the Northland in person, causing a sensation inside and outside Dragon City. Mr. and Mrs. Beowulf and Rudolph personally came to greet the venerable lady, and the high-ranking generals of the coalition army also came to admire the demeanor of the legendary druid, perhaps only Lyudmila was not so happy, but fortunately, Roland also brought her with her during his visit to the pasture, which made her regain a little bit of the dignity of the main palace lady, plus Valergina was still gentle and kind to her as usual, and the vinegar in her heart was finally swallowed.

After the inspection, Roland reached a cooperation agreement with Valentina on behalf of his father. The Harvest Ring will send druids north to Dragon City in batches to help Koras and his son run a highland ranch and provide technical support for breeding and improving their horses. With the professional guidance of the druids, the ranch under the rule of Longshan can provide no less than 5,000 war horses every year. The second part of the agreement is more critical, involving the intention of cooperation to be more valuable than the Warhorse.

Roland has a huge plan for the construction of transportation in the Far East, railways, roads, air transport and canals are the direction of future transportation development, but in terms of practical conditions, it is still far from realizing the above grand blueprint, and the accumulation is still the most important means of transportation in the Far East at present and for a long time in the future, and the Highlands is undoubtedly the best pack beast of all the domesticated animals in the Far East, no matter how much attention is paid to it.
