There was no sound in the room for a long time. Bolval was waiting for Diego to speak, and Diego was a mess of what to say.

"Young man, what are you worried about? Where is the courage you had when you faced the dragons? Bolval finally couldn't help it, and said sarcastically, his tone would not be unbearable as long as he was a young man.

"I'm worried about how to run that place, you know, I've never been a lord, and I don't even know what to do there." Diego didn't fall for him, but grumbled with a sad face. He was very unhappy with Bolval's approach, and they threw out a piece of flesh and bones, and they were going to snatch their heads like dogs. This hurts so much!

"No one is born a lord, except for those hereditary second ancestors," Boval reassured, but he also directly stated his plan, "Besides, the kingdom will send administrators after you take back Yuexi Town, you just need to check your annual income." ”

"Am I, the lord, just a puppet?" Diego asked with a bit of a smile, but in fact he also knew that the kingdom would not allow him to truly control the territory, especially since there was a huge gold bonanza here. Bergall's approach is probably the best solution at the moment. Although the king will take away the rich annual income of this gold mine, it will also block all the cold eyes of the coveted place.

"Come on, at least you have the right to tax," Bolval shrugged his shoulders and made a "you know" look, but he explained anyway. "Actually, most of the nobles of the kingdom are like this. For example, the one in front of you, although he is a duke. But he doesn't even know what his own territory looks like, but what does it matter, as long as the annual income of the territory can be handed over to me. ”

"So, okay, I'll give it a try." Diego said helplessly, but he is not the kind of person with strong power, to be honest, if he didn't want to do something for the people of Yuexi Town, he wouldn't bother to care about it. There is no shortage of money in his pocket.

"Perhaps, I can still build a nest in Yuexi Town." Suddenly, the thought popped up in his mind, and it had been spreading like a weed in his heart since it came to him at the Winter Veil Festival, and he had not forgotten it for a moment.

"Your Excellency, if you have no other orders, please forgive me!"

Diego bowed, then walked out the door. Speaking of going to Yuexi Town, he didn't have a clue at all. It's not like going on an adventure, just pick up your gun and set off, you don't need much preparation, but it's ...... to take over a territory. It's really going to kill you.

"What to do? Perhaps, I should consult with Masrae. He said in his heart.

But just then, Bowval opened his mouth and left him behind. "Wait. Youngster. ”

Diego stopped, turned to look at him plaintively. His eyebrows drooped, and his face was full of sorrow. Burnard was almost a little distracted by it, and couldn't help but want to send troops to help him. But the Duke eventually resisted his impulse.

"Our troops have more important things to do, and we can't spare our energy yet." He said apologetically from the bottom of his heart. But what he was going to say next was just enough to compensate for the new viscount.

"I've noticed that your musket, while firing at an impressive rate, isn't as powerful as it could be when it comes to well-protected targets. Perhaps, I may allow you to choose a few weapons in the Hall of Warriors? "The Hall of Warriors in the Duke's mouth is located in the Old Town, where the Stormwind military provided logistical equipment for the highly decorated officers. Many people are proud to receive this reward. Most of the weapons and armor produced here are exclusively for the military, and almost every single piece that has entered the black market has been sold for exorbitant prices.

"No, Your Excellency, I'd rather you allow me to build my own weapon." Diego pleaded sincerely, he had been trying to improve his rifle for more than a day or two, and the draft had already been finalized. Moreover, how could those mass-produced goods in the Warrior Hall be as easy to use as the weapons that he made himself.

"That's ......," the Duke muttered, Diego's request was a bit of a surprise to him, but he decided to give the young man a chance, perhaps with a surprise, "So, how is your engineering skills?" ”

"Incomparable, Your Excellency." Diego said proudly. As he confidently was, having watched Frank Ron in Darkhearth? After the intricate design of cast iron, Diego's engineering level is not among the best in Azeroth, but it is definitely first-class, not to mention, he still has many exquisite designs that will only appear in Azeroth in the next few years to learn from.

"So, is there anything I can help with? As long as I can do it, you can just ask. The Duke was generous for a rare time, and he looked at Diego with a smile, believing that this knowledgeable young man would not ask too much.

And that's exactly what happened. Diego's next request was just a gesture for him.

"I think I need the help of the court mages, and you know that a powerful weapon with a powerful enchantment is essential." Diego's eyes lit up in pleading. He knew that those court mages with eyes on their foreheads would not buy anyone's account except for a big man like Duke Berval.

"That's true." Boval nodded in agreement, in fact, the broadsword he was wearing was the constant Crusader, a holy light spell that could heal some minor injuries taken by its wielder, and greatly increase the wielder's strength.

"I can help you write this edict, but the materials for making this weapon must be provided by yourself, you know, the treasury is not rich, and every penny must be spent on the blade." The Duke took out a piece of parchment from a drawer under the table and said.

"No problem!" Diego agreed without hesitation, as if he was afraid that the duke would change his mind in the next moment, which made Bolvar look up at him in surprise, as if surprised: "When did the hunter who has always been poor be so arrogant?" ”

But instead of speaking, he dipped his quill pen in ink and wrote on paper.

Diego peeked his head quietly and saw the Duke writing on parchment:

"In the name of the kingdom, ask the court mage to learn to assist the holder of this article to make an enchanted weapon. - Bolval? Duke of Fotagen. ”

Diego almost shouted with joy, to be honest, this was what he needed, from the Thorsilver Watchtower to Stormwind, he had already realized that the M1 rifle was not powerful enough. The duke's edict is simply a pillow for drowsiness, and charcoal in the snow.

"This time, we must come up with a big killer!" Diego rolled up his sleeves and thought to himself.

"Okay, take it, go make your own weapon. Young man, I hope you don't waste this precious opportunity, you know, court mages don't just give help to anyone. The Duke put the parchment in the envelope, and then stamped it with wax, and handed it over. (To be continued......)
