Recently, the temperature has been unpredictable, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, so please pay attention to your body! I've been unfortunate enough to be tricked, and my throat hurts so much that it's an unbearable tragedy!

Ask for a ticket

"Yes! That's right, but it takes a lot of money to set up a spell association, right? Chen Kai took the approval clause from Xu Fei's hand, which was a document issued by the General Association of the Imperial Capital of the Hansting Empire, which showed that the General Association of the Imperial Magic Association had approved the establishment of a branch of the Spell Society in Burkner Town. However, this does not mean that Burkner Town can immediately obtain a Spell Guild chapter, after all, spellcasters are a group of people who are very much in need of money, whether it is spell research or scroll making, they need gold to rely on.

"Yes! It takes about a million gold coins! Xu Fei estimated a little and then said the number that made Chen Kai stunned for a long time, he didn't say that this was the lowest price, in fact, it would take at least 10 million gold coins to really set up a branch of the Spell Association. It was ten times the number Xu Fei said, but this kind of gold coin would not be able to make up at all unless Chen Kai sold the few holy artifact weapons in the treasure room. Now the total gold coins in Chen Kai's pocket are only more than five million, which has to pay for next month's soldier's salary and various miscellaneous expenses, it can be said that the operation of the entire Berkner Town is supported by Chen Kai's money bag.

The large amount of gold coins cost Chen Kai's pockets quickly dried up, if it weren't for the latest attack on the city by demonized soldiers, allowing Chen Kai to sell the equipment of those demonized soldiers in exchange for some gold coins to alleviate the shortage of money bags, maybe Chen Kai would have started to worry about money by now. However, most of the equipment that was picked up from the demonized soldiers was digested by Chen Kai himself, and only the poorer ones were sold by Chen Kai.

What Chen Kai didn't expect was that it was not the player lords around him who spent the most money to buy things, but the nobles of the Northern Aboriginal Noble Alliance. It's just that what they bought was not equipment, but the head of the demonized monitor lizard, to put it bluntly, in order to buy it back and make it into a specimen for display. This kind of thing made Chen Kai very speechless, but the other party's bid was really not low, and Chen Kai sold it half to those lords. After all, to Chen Kai, the head of the demonized monitor lizard was just a pile of garbage, and its blood contained very little magic power. It cannot be used as a concoction for magic scroll ink. The most important thing is that the meat of the demonized monitor lizard cannot be eaten, and at the same time, it cannot be used as fertilizer, except for the skin and bone tendons, Chen Kai does not know what the use of this demonized monitor lizard is.

Of course, in order to sell for a good price. The horns on it were not sawed off, and if they were sawed off, they might be able to make a few bone short swords or daggers. But even the price of making a dagger into a short sword is not as high as the price offered by those nobles who want to show off their military exploits, because unless it is a means of alchemy, it is also a tabula rasa weapon worth a thousand gold, but it was sold to the other party Chen Kai for 150,000 gold coins. Chen Kai thought that it was estimated that no one would act as the wrongdoer at such a high price. In the end, it was found that there were really people who did such a thing, and the heads of the four demonized monitor lizards made Chen Kai turn a full 600,000 gold coins. In the end, all this money was used by Xu Fei as a fund for the establishment of the Spell Association, and Chen Kai added 600,000 out of his own pocket in addition to contributing 600,000 gold coins. Although in Xu Fei's opinion, this gold coin is still not enough, but it is already possible to establish an ordinary spell association.

When the Spell Guild in Burkna Town was officially launched, the Mercenary Guild and Adventurers' Guild in the town had been open for nearly a month. Although there are still very few mercenaries and adventurers who come to Burkner Town. But it is much better than when the city was first established, but there are many more spies from the Northern Noble Alliance than the adventurers who venture to Altinis in the south, and Chen Kai does not have much way to deal with such a person, as long as Chen Kai can't catch the evidence, he will be driven out of the city. Those who seized the evidence were confiscated and beaten out of the city with sticks.

Of course, those spies who can be found out are absolutely second-hand fools, and it is impossible for Chen Kai to drive out some residents who can't find evidence as secret agents without any reason. So the spies who have been kicked out of town for now are just a few stupid spies who feel too good about themselves, and they don't know how to restrain themselves, as if it is very honorable to be a spy themselves. Of course, for such a two-fool secret agent. Chen Kai will definitely not be soft-hearted, and he will fight out with his mercenary group. It's just that the equipment that was stripped off and cleaned was only such a foolish secret agent. The other mercenaries Chen Kai didn't move. Because Chen Kai didn't want to offend these mercenaries too much, who knows if there is a hidden powerful store among them. Even though these mercenaries had the possibility of acting as spies for the Northern Noble Alliance, Chen Kai was still unwilling to clash head-on with most of the mercenaries.

After all, if Chen Kai's city is to develop in the future, he still has to rely on mercenaries to protect the caravans to reach the city. Without the protection of the caravans, relying solely on Chen Kai's troops, it is estimated that not many caravans will be able to cross the Great Rift Valley from Altinis to the town of Berkna in a year. The most important thing is that Chen Kai also relied on the power of mercenaries to open the way to Altinis. Relying on his forces alone, it may take years for the blockade of trade routes between the north and the south to be penetrated. But Chen Kai's wealth couldn't last that long, and at the same time, it was impossible for the prime minister of the Hansting Empire to let Chen Kai have so much time to accumulate strength. The harshly worded executive orders were a true reflection of the heart of the imperial prime minister. Although he also knew that he couldn't force Chen Kai's travelers too much, if Chen Kai took the burden, he wouldn't be able to find a new wronged leader to do this.

You must know that not every stupid nobleman can win the favor of that earl. Not every baron does not know what is the cause of Hugordi's current situation. In fact, they all knew very well that opening the road to Altinis was not a difficult thing for the Hansting Empire, but the difficulty was that opening this trade route would harm the interests of some of the current vested interests. In fact, the reason why the army of the Hansting Empire did not come to open the trade route is very simple, that is, it was all used to guard against the private armies of those great nobles. Of course, the most important point is that the empire does not have so much money to waste on finding the troops of the former lord of Hugodi, after all, there are so many underground passages in the Great Rift Valley that it is absolutely a thankless task to find the former lord of Hugodi and his remnants in these extensive underground passages, and military spending alone will require tens of millions of gold coins. For the Hansting Empire, restoring the vitality of the Golden Plains was the most important thing, and it was not too late to deal with the food crisis when the trade routes were connected.

However, this will make Chen Kai miserable, because he will basically receive an executive order from the imperial prime minister every week, basically asking when the trade route can be opened. For the Imperial Prime Minister, he was known to everyone that the food crisis in the empire was severe, but in fact, the grain in the north of Hansting was not as abundant as expected. The amount of time that can be consumed by the current food stocks is entirely premised on not being wasted. But the reality was that food waste was much more severe, and the prime minister was well aware that there was definitely less food in the empire's granaries than there was on paper. In fact, no matter what era the granary is the most important place in a country, it is usually the most neglected and nourished place. Prime Minister Capello was able to gain the favor of the current emperor because of the ** who handled the granary. But at the same time, he knows better that what he is dealing with is just a small problem. The royal family, the nobles and officials of the Empire, and the bureaucrats of the grain warehouse turned the granary, an important lifeblood of the Empire, into a giant rat's nest, whether it was reselling grain or using inferior grain as good food, and those bastards did it.

But the people involved in this are so great that Prime Minister Capello does not dare to lift the lid at all. Once revealed, not only will he die, but even the entire thirty-odd members of his current Capello family will die without a place to be buried. Therefore, he could only desperately ask Chen Kai to speed up the opening of the trade route in the Great Rift Valley, so as not to break out in advance of the food crisis, thus destroying him, the prime minister of the empire. Of course, in Chen Kai's opinion, the prime minister was a bit too demanding, and he just wanted the horses to run quickly and the horses not to eat grass. Except for executive orders. Prime Minister Capello did not have any practical support for Chen Kai, and it was completely unreasonable to ask Chen Kai to do a lot of things without even giving a little gold coin. Of course, Chen Kai's Prime Minister Capello may be poorer than him, after all, the matter of the Golden Great Plains has not been properly concluded until now, and if you want to completely restore the soil of the Great Plains, you need the earth elemental caster to cooperate with the temple priest to constantly clean up the death power that seeps into the soil. It was an extremely long process, in which the Golden Plains, the once extremely prosperous granary, became almost the most painful part of the empire.

Most of the remaining inhabitants have lost their farmland, and although the land is still theirs, what grows in the land is no longer edible. Anyone who eats this food will die or become a half-human, half-corpse being. At the same time, the plants grown in the soil are gradually distorted. The trees are constantly dying, giving off the smell of decay. This is the current Golden Great Plains, and the bumper harvest in the past was enough to make the entire Hansting Empire a rich land without famine for two years, but now it is constantly exuding the breath of death. Although the Hugodi territory was separated by two or three counties from the Great Golden Plain, there were still many refugees who fled here.

As Chen Kai, who had personally experienced the ghoul disaster of the Golden Great Plains, was very aware of the consequences of that disaster, and the grain that had been harvested in the granary was either burned or contaminated, and basically could not be eaten. The Golden Plains now have several lords working hard to restore the production of their territories. Especially Chen Kai's senior brother and Prime Minister Capello's unscrupulous son are all in this place, while trying to stabilize the territory. But they are even worse than Chen Kai. Although the territory area is almost more than twice the area of Chen Kai's territory, there is almost no place for cultivation. Large areas of the land are black. But it was not a fertile black, but a rotten black that exuded a strong smell of death. Living on such a land, even ordinary people will gradually contract strange diseases and die violently, so they are fighting for their lives to serve as lords there.

What a large number of temple priests do every day is to constantly release divine magic to disperse the death power in the soil, but these death forces grow faster than the priests' dispersal speed, and in the end they can only choose to completely shovel up the most fertile soil on the surface. A full thirty centimeter layer of soil had to be shoveled off, and a large number of earth elemental casters did not have a good rest for a day, and had to work for four or five hours a day, and then meditate constantly to restore their magic. These soil-made rocks were eventually transported to a place where they stacked up into a death plateau that players would later call the Cursed Lands.

All the rocks here are black and red, exuding a strong smell of death, and ordinary life, even if they are as strong as a cow, will age and die very quickly if they are not professionals. Creatures that die here instantly turn into undead, and due to the abundance of a large amount of death power, this place naturally opens a path to the underworld. Some of the undead who escaped from the underworld have settled here, growing and multiplying. Of course, that's almost a year later. At present, the land of the Golden Great Plains is gradually recovering under this method, at least in a short period of time, to a cultivable state. Even if the grain yield from this cultivation is very low, it is almost only slightly better than a grain harvest. Since all the fertile soil has been eradicated, there is basically new soil without any fertility underneath. So in fact, although Chen Kai's territory is a little smaller, it is still a relatively good place, but no matter how good the place is, if he can't open up the trade route to Altinis, then Prime Minister Capello doesn't mind taking Chen Kai under the knife. Let him also taste what it is like to escape to the underground world and be a rat.

Don't think this is a joke, if the trade routes of the Great Rift Valley really couldn't be penetrated, and the grain from the south was not delivered to the north in time, and finally the matter of the granary of the empire broke out. Then maybe Prime Minister Capello will die with his whole family, but before that he will let Chen Kai be hunted down until he dies.

So don't look at Chen Kai and directly throw Prime Minister Capello's order into the trash like waste paper. But he also knew in his heart that he had to complete this seemingly impossible task. Although he could ask Altinis to attack the Rift Valley at the same time, Altinis's druid would not follow Chen Kai's orders. As the last holy place of the goddess of nature, although Altinis is located in Hansting, it is not controlled by the royal family of the Hansting Empire, if the great druid helps Chen Kai, it is called friendly, he does not help Chen Kai, Chen Kai has no way to take the other party. The most important thing is that Chen Kai didn't think that Altinis's druid would follow the order of the great druid and come to die for Chen Kai. Although Altinis may cooperate a little to attack the monsters in the Great Rift, it is absolutely impossible for them to use all their strength to come to the Great Rift Valley to help Chen Kai eliminate all the monsters and demonized soldiers.

Before that, however, Chen Kai had to solve the problem of troops, as well as a gang of horse thieves who had wandered into his territory. Regarding this group of horse thieves who suddenly appeared in the territory, Chen Kai thought at first that it was played by demonized cavalry. As a result, when his cavalry fought with the other party, he suddenly found that these horse thieves had migrated from the Golden Plains. Unable to make a living in the Golden Plains, they chose to spread around. And this gang of horse thieves of more than 5,000 people chose to enter the territory of Hugodi, which had lost its great lord. The most important thing is that they have already ransacked the two player territories, although they have not completely succeeded, but they have roughly deduced the strength of these territories, and when they appeared in Chen Kai's territory, they were first stunned by Chen Kai's city wall, and then immediately showed a greedy gaze. After all, the bigger the town, the more wealth there is, and the most important thing is that they learned from the looted players that Chen Kai's territory has food.

Of course, there is also grain in the territory of the Northern Noble Alliance, and there is more food than Chen Kai's. But they know from the players that Chen Kai is also a traveler. A Traveler's territory is usually easier to deal with than the territory of the Aborigines, and this is the conclusion that these horse thieves have ransacked the territory of two players. So they chose Chen Kai, a town located south of the Hugodi Territory, to ransack.

In fact, if they could inquire clearly, then they would definitely not choose Chen Kai, a male lion who hides his minions. Unfortunately, the time it took them to reach the Hugodi realm was too short. They were also too short of food, and most importantly, the two player territories repelled their attacks but paid a lot of money. This kind of defense made these horse thieves look down on the traveler's city a little, even if Chen Kai's town looked a little stronger. Of course, these horse thieves will not choose to attack the city directly, but attack Chen Kai's troops outside, thus constantly weakening the strength of his army, and finally luring Chen Kai out of the city to fight.

It's just that these horse thieves didn't know that when they lured Chen Kai out of the city, what they got was not a victory, but a terrible death. By the time the news of the first patrol had been attacked reached Chen Kai, he had already begun to prepare his horses, and the horse thieves were very happy to find that their expected battle had appeared earlier than they had expected. Because they saw Chen Kai walking out of the town with about 3,000 cavalry, and less than a third of them looked like regular cavalry, and the rest were cavalry composed of extremely chaotic players.

Compared to horse thieves with a regular cavalry organization, Chen Kai's cavalry was simply a ragtag army. You must know that the horse thieves who managed to escape the ghoul disaster and escape alive to Hugodi are the most fierce and powerful horse thieves in the Golden Plains. The leader of this gang of horse thieves, Broken Knife, Black Jack, is the leader of the relatively large horse thieves on the Golden Plains, who once had nearly 10,000 subordinates, although only half of them are now left, but they are all elites, not elites, basically either died under the mouth of ghouls or died on the way to escape. Therefore, Blackjack is very confident that he can take out Chen Kai's ragtag army, and even if he is a little dizzy when he looks at Chen Kai's huge body, he can't hide his confidence in victory. To be continued.
