"Well, as much as I would love to transfer you to the army in the service of the king, the senate has already cleared your consideration of your nobility, and they have approved your viscount, and you are a real viscount. So, you're ready to celebrate. Bolval stood up and saluted Diego with a noble salute, "I'm glad to be the first to inform you of this good news, Lord of Moonstream, His Excellency Viscount Aznar. ”

Diego jumped up from his chair a little bewildered, and he jerkily followed Bolval's example, and replied with a lame aristocratic salute.

Looking at his embarrassment, the Duke couldn't help but laugh.

"Young man, if I were you, the first thing I would do when I walked out of this door would be to ask for a court etiquette teacher first." He said jokingly.

Diego's face was as red as a big red cloth, and he felt like he had been in the first place when he went to eat Western food.

"Your Excellency, as a nobleman, you are losing your status by doing this." Diego grumbled dissatisfied. The more contact he had with the duke, the more he knew about the regent, and after knowing what his temper was, Diego's attitude became more casual.

But the Duke was unfazed by the hunter's protests, and on the contrary laughed louder.

Just as Diego was almost annoyed by the ridicule and the wolf fled, the Duke finally suppressed his smile and sat back in his seat, changing his face to business.

"Those Senate nobles are not well-intentioned, Diego, they want you to die." He lowered his voice, and his face was full of the expression of 'I sue you, don't tell anyone else'. "How much do you know about that fiefdom?"

"Ah......? Heard of some. Diego was a little uncomfortable with the speed at which the duke's face changed, and he was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses and replied. In fact. He knew some stories about Mooncreek Town, in his previous life, he had stayed there for a while, but he didn't reveal it immediately, but chose to continue to hide, "Marshal Wendthor told me something about that place. ”

"Oh? Let's hear it. The Duke said with interest, perhaps the young man would be able to gain a foothold in that chaotic place.

It took Diego a few minutes to digest the information, and to be honest, all of a sudden, there was such a large piece of territory. For him, it was really too shocking. His chaotic brain couldn't tell for a moment whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for him. But according to the experience of the earth in the previous life, the land is very valuable, and it is better to get this territory first.

Finally, he sorted out the information about Yuexi Town in his mind and spoke.

The town of Moon Creek is located at the southernmost point of the rich western wilderness, at the foot of Dagger Ridge. The back of this town. It is the richest gold vein in the entire Storm Kingdom. It is said that the gold deposits in this vein, once mined, could increase Stormwind's wealth by a third. However, during the First Orc War, the gold mine was abandoned for a time, but after the war. However, haunted legends emerged, and no miner dared to go down to work, so gold mining has not been able to restart.

But Mooncreek isn't the kind of town that thrives on mining alone. In fact, most of the town's inhabitants are farmers. Before the area was in turmoil, the flax, oats, barley, and potatoes grown in the fertile land claimed to feed half the population of Stormwind.

But. Riot in the Brotherhood of Defia, Countess Catlana? After Presto withdrew the Stormwind forces stationed there, the unprotected residents of Mooncreek fled to Sentinel Ridge in the north, overwhelmed by the constant attacks of the Defia Brotherhood.

Now entrenched in the town are the bandits of the Brotherhood of Defia. After discovering the gold mines south of town, they decided to entrench themselves and turn the abandoned mine into an underground fortress where they had set up camp.

With that, Diego paused and glanced at the duke. What he said was something that many people knew, and it wasn't too secret, and there was no need to worry about Berval suspecting him of spying on Kingdom secrets.

"Well, it's not bad, I know a lot." After listening to Diego's story, the regent nodded approvingly, "But if you want to get your territory back, these are not enough, you need more detailed information." ”

Diego's eyes lit up.

"Your Excellency, can you help me?" He asked, overjoyed.

"Some kind of Cheng dù on, yes. At least we can provide intelligence support. Bolval said with a smile.

Diego was a little disappointed.

"Can't Stormwind send an army to destroy the Brotherhood of Defia?" He grumbled dissatisfiedly. In fact, he was a little suspicious of his sudden acquisition of this territory, and the nobles of the Senate wanted him to die, didn't Bovar plan to sweep away the bandits and robbers in the kingdom's territory? Could it be that he changed his mind so quickly, and he was to be left to fend for himself?

"You have to be content, the king has given you the name of lord, can you still ask us to take down that territory, clean it up in peace, and then invite you to be lord?" Bolval didn't know what was going on in Diego's head, and he said angrily, "You know, there's a gold mine in that place!" Do you know how many people are eager to get their hands on this territory? ”

"I don't know, but I know that at least the Brotherhood of Defia will be eyeing my territory." Diego sneered in his heart. But in fact, he had to admit that what Duke Berval said was not unreasonable, because in the early days when the descendants of Arathi established the Stormwind Kingdom, many nobles who had been authorized by the royal family also relied on their own strength to lay down a piece of territory in this vast and wild land. At that time, the royal family did not send a single soldier, except for the pioneer order, they did not come up with anything.

At that time, the aristocracy was not as weak as it is now, and they were so calloused that they reclaimed patches of rich farms, pastures, and plantations in the land full of jackals, kobolds, and fishmen. Even when they were working in the fields, they had to keep their weapons on the ground to guard against uninvited robbers and snakes and beasts.

Diego was silent, to be honest, he really wanted to do something for the people of the Western Wilderness, because he knew that the common people of the Western Wilderness lived a very difficult life, especially the Countess Catlana? After Presto removed the Wang ** team stationed here, the situation here was even worse. It's full of the Defia Brotherhood, Riverpaw Gnolls, and mutated Crop Golems. The inhabitants of the human race who inhabit it are in daily trepidation and fear, and this place would not have kept a single person had it not been for the little bit of inheritance.

But he didn't know if he had the ability, and to be honest, as a tech nerd in his previous life, he had never had experience managing a town. As for fighting with the Brotherhood of Defia and grabbing land, that's not a problem, Diego is best at fighting and killing right now. (To be continued......)
