"Well, okay, I got it." The king nodded, looked down and thought for a while, and said, "Count Li Jun, in fact, there is something I want you to do today. Recently, the Bright Sect sent someone to report something to me, saying that the necromancer on the Southern Continent had not communicated with them for more than two months, which was almost impossible in the past, and the Light Priest and the Necromancer used to communicate almost once a month, and the messenger sent by the Bright Church to the Southern Continent also crossed the ocean and no news came back, as if they had disappeared. Combined with the demonic invasion and the Faceless incident two months ago, I have a bad premonition about this, so I want you to go to the Holy City of Light and escort the Priest of Light to the Southern Continent to see what is going on. ", why let me go, is there no one in the empire, what does it mean to give me a new earl for such an important matter?

"Well, can I not go?" I just became a lord, and there are still a lot of things waiting for me in the territory, so I don't have time to care about what is happening in the Southern Continent.

"Ian." After the king said a name with a smile, he directly defeated me, and I now finally know what the king said about Ian before, and he wanted to threaten me with this.

"There are so many people in the empire, why did you choose me?" I'm trying to make the last struggle, although I'm not afraid of encountering danger when I go to the southern continent, and when I encounter danger, I'll just go back to the scroll. But it took a lot of time, the dark elves were going to dig the hole to my base in two years, and I really didn't know the bottom of my heart if I didn't prepare early.

"Because I don't want anyone else to know about this matter yet, because if this incident on the Southern Continent has something to do with the Faceless One, I can't guarantee that the others will be able to keep their mouths shut about it. Looking at the entire empire, you are the only one who knows about the Faceless One, and the most important thing is that you are a new nobleman, and you are not very familiar with the nobles and officials of the empire, so I don't have to worry about you telling the matter. The king smiled and said, "And your subordinates are very good, I can rest assured if this matter is handed over to you." "Then thank you for your affirmation, what is this called, the reason is so good that I don't even have a reason to refuse?

"Yes, Your Majesty, I see." What can I do now, I can only agree to go through this experience. "And when can I go?" If you're not in a hurry, just wait for me to have a territorial gamble with Duke Finney before setting off, I added in my heart, I'm a very vindictive man.

"The sooner the better, as for the territory gambling you want to fight with Duke Feeney, let's talk about it after you come back from the Southern Continent this time." The king added at the end of the sentence.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Then let him go for the time being, and then settle accounts with him when he comes back, "Your Majesty, how many people can I bring with me to the Southern Continent this time?" ”

"It's up to you, but it's best to bring more, after all, if something happens to the Southern Continent, the undead creatures there will be a big problem. Your mission this time is mainly to escort the Light Priests of the Holy See of Light, and there will be a Blessed Knight with you, so you don't have to worry too much. "It sounds like the security is quite high, but since the Holy See is going to send the Blessed Knight to accompany the investigation, what else do you want me to do?

Probably seeing my thoughts, the king approached me and said, "In addition to finding out the cause of the loss of contact with the Southern Continent this time, I have one more thing for you to do. When he said this, the king had already walked in front of me, and I saw him say in a low voice: "This time I go to the Southern Empire, you help me find a necromancer named Nancy, and then bring her back safely." "Hearing this, I looked at the king with surprised eyes, bringing a female necromancer back from the realm of the undead, the king's taste is really not ordinary. When the king saw my eyes, he glared at me viciously, and said in a low voice, "What are you thinking, that's my daughter!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, I see." A good princess doesn't want to go to the Southern Continent to be a necromancer, this princess is really weird enough, but I always feel that the king doesn't seem to have anything to tell me, and it's really unpleasant to be caught by someone.

After bidding farewell to the king and leaving the palace, I got into the carriage and returned to the hotel where Anne and the others were. As soon as I returned to the hotel, I saw that a large group of people were now surrounding the hotel, some of them were the nobles I met on the second day of my arrival in the imperial capital, and the rest were ...... How to say it, the rest of the people should be the star chasers of this world.

Bursts of girl's shouts came from the crowd, and at least thirty or so girls formed a phalanx outside the hotel, shouting Karl's name in unison. Next to them were several phalanxes of men, each with the names of the four heroines in their mouths. I was instantly upset when I saw this, Nima, why are you calling my wife's name? That's my wife! Among the remaining scattered people, some are shouting Xiao Dai, some are shouting Lao Pu, and a few children, accompanied by their parents, are calling the little monkey and the black and white bear, which are the little fans of Lao Chen and Liwan.

The carriage stopped in front of the hotel, and as soon as I stepped out of the carriage, the nobles around me gathered around me, some of whom shouted my name vigorously, and some of whom kept announcing their homes there. After hearing the child's cry, Lao Chen turned to me and said, "Master, when you are free, can you announce to everyone that I am a panda, not a black and white bear." Looking at his depressed face, he seemed to have a deep resentment towards the name Black and White Bear.

"Okay, I know, don't worry, I'll help you correct your name when I have the chance." I patted Old Chen on the shoulder and assured him.

Xiao Dai and Lao Chen were in front of me to help me block the crowd of people who were coming around, and just as I passed by Carl's group of fans, I happened to hear them talking, and one of the girls said to her companion, "This is Lord Carl's master?" Lord Carl is so handsome, why did he find such a master? "Nima, what do you mean, Lao Tzu's appearance has something to do with whether he will become the master or not?

"He's the master of Lord Karl, and you say that if I marry him, won't I have a chance to have an affair with Lord Karl? It's romantic to think about. "! Romantic, you're big! When I heard this, I immediately looked in the direction of the source of the sound, and I wanted to see which girl would say such shameful words. Then I saw a fat man whose tonnage was comparable to Lao Chen, Nima still wanted to marry me like you, and wanted to have an affair with Carl, people should be self-aware.

Instead of caring about the group of brainless fans outside, I squeezed into the hotel under the escort of Xiao Dai and Lao Chen, and when I came to the room, Lemet was already waiting for me in the room. Seeing me return, Lemet stood up from his seat and said to me with a smile on his face, "Congratulations to Count Li Jun for winning the territory gambling battle. "It is normal for Lemit to be so happy, he is the only one of so many nobles to report to me, although he did not inform me, but he has succeeded in gaining my friendship.

"I've kept you waiting, Lord Marquis." I smiled and hugged Lemet, then sat down together and said to him, "Your Majesty has something to do with me after the game, and called me to the palace, and I have not come back until now. ”

"It's fine, it didn't take long." Lemit said with a smile, very wisely not to ask my king what he wanted me to do. "Last time, you said that after you win this territory bet, you are willing to help me open up a territory in the Warcraft Forest. Of course, in return, I have to give you 10% of the profit of the territory every month after the territory is completed. "Ten percent profit is already very small, if other nobles don't have more than thirty percent of the profit, don't want to ask me for help, and they have to pay me a protection fee every month.

"Yes, that's what I said." I nodded, agreeing with Lemet's statement, "And I'll send troops to protect you while your territory is being built." ”

"Yes, thank you very much for your help, so when will we be able to go?" Lemet said with a hint of excitement.

"Are you ready? It's not easy to carve out a territory, and although I promise to protect you, you must at least be able to protect yourself, and there is also the problem of food supplies. And you'll need a lot of manpower to help you build your territory, are you ready for that? "It doesn't take a month or two to get these things ready, and it's only been a few days since I promised to help him.

"Yes, I'm ready, and I'll tell you the truth, I've been preparing since the day I met you." Lemit said proudly: "There are other people who have started preparing early like me, but in the current situation, their preparations are in vain, hahaha." "You're bold enough to start preparing so early, and you dare to take the risk to show me favor even after making such adequate preparations. Just in response to that sentence, support the bold to death, starve the faint to death.

"Okay, three days later, at nine o'clock in the morning, we will gather at the south gate of the imperial capital, and we will set off together when the time comes." I'm going to the Southern Continent, and I don't know what the situation is there, so it's safer for me to go back and bring more soldiers and then go to the Bright Holy City.
