Through continuous dismantling and research of the magic items left over from the Nether era, Lothar opened a total of eleven mysterious illustrated books and gained 22,000 experience points.

Now he had more than 40,000 experience points in his experience pool in Lothar, but he had no plans to use them immediately.

When it comes to critical moments, it's best to spend experience points as needed to deal with different situations.

And Lothar's biggest gain in the Chamber of Secrets is not this considerable experience value.

He found a strange metal object made of double rings.

Although this delicate little thing that could be held in the palm of his hand did not emit any energy fluctuations or magical aura, it was the greatest gain of Lothar in the secret room.

Because, this is the key to entering the floating city.

With it, the obstacles and traps in the Floating City, which the current mages of the Netherancient Magic Empire cannot understand and cannot crack, will no longer be a problem, and Lothar will be able to move freely in that Floating City like an ancient arcanist.

He was already looking forward to a trip to Carlin.

When Lothar had studied the chamber and returned to the castle, a full day had passed since the smashed wedding.

Because of the presence of Aphro's father, ****, the situation in the entire territory is quite stable.

However, Lothar can't keep disappearing, he must go to a council of lords to stabilize people's hearts.

When he arrived at the castle hall, it was already full of people.

Heavily armed knights and richly dressed officials lined up, and Afro stood behind the lord's seat with a pale, clean-faced, and bright-eyed old man.

The torch on the wall was blazing, and the pine oil added to it crackled from time to time, as if to highlight the uneasy mood in the hearts of everyone in the hall.

With the help of Aphro and ****, after the death of Primo and his undead henchmen, the power vacuum and chaos left behind were quickly pacified.

Die-hard loyalists who had been loyal to the Moonstaff family, such as Galleri and Lorenzo, had long since died at the hands of Lothar. And Masu Moonscepter was busy with the war with Baron Charon, and he didn't have time to strengthen his territorial control. With the exception of Primo, he did not support other henchmen.

Many of the aristocratic bureaucrats in the Barony of Dolan are loyal wall-to-wall grass-even Afro's father, ****, is also this kind of swinging centrist. It's just that because of Primo's relationship with his daughter, he is now firmly standing by Lothar's side.

These old faces that Lothar had long been familiar with had also been ready to move after seeing the return of the son of the former Baron Frieden. But when Lothar revealed the power to defeat Primo with ease, and the Barony of Doran's Title Document jointly signed by the Kingdom and the White Tower of Truth, their attitude immediately changed.

Now, these people are gathered in the halls of the castle, and each one of them is thinking about how to please the new baron. Their minds were so urgent that they no longer had the time to delve into why the boy who had not even lit the fire had now become a powerful mage.

"What do you have to say, Lord Baron?"

After Lothar sat down, **** leaned over to him and asked.

Based on his own experience and knowledge, Lothar easily lifted the undead rot poison planted by Primo in the **** body. This also won the loyalty of ****.

Today, he has been appointed by Lothar as the head of the castle, taking over from Primo.

"What do I have to say?"

Lothar touched the armrest of her chair, which was full of history.

He, his father, and the Friedon family ancestors had all sat in this chair and ruled the land. It's just that after Lothar sat up, she didn't have much emotion. After all, he is an outsider and does not have a lot of affection for the land.

"Hmm...... 'Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi'? Or 'I'm Lothar back'? ”

Lothar thought for a moment and shook her head. He felt that if he made a look of raising his eyebrows and fulfilling his long-cherished wish, he would seem very silly and not funny at all.

So he smiled and said slowly, "I want to issue the first lord's order after taking office." ”

As soon as his words fell, **** immediately motioned for the clerk to step forward, picked up the pen and paper, and prepared to record. The other servant also took the Baron Seal, which had a constant mark spell.

Many of his subordinates pricked up their ears for fear of missing a word that came out of Lothar's mouth. Even some nimble minds have begun to think about how to come up with suggestions for improvement for a while, so as not to offend the new lord and at the same time to show their talents.

However, the first lord decree after Lothar took office had nothing to do with domestic affairs, foreign affairs, or military affairs.

"From three days later, the Barony of Dolan will begin a mass migration. From the commoners to the nobles, everyone had to move out of the Barony of Doran within half a month. Depending on the wealth of each family, you can receive the corresponding relocation compensation from me. Mr. **** is responsible for specific matters. ”

As soon as Lothar's words came out, it immediately set off an uproar.

Everyone in the hall was like being hit by a hammer, and they couldn't speak for a long time.

When they came to their senses, a thought popped up in their minds: this new lord is crazy!

You know, talent is the most important resource in the world. It is unimaginable madness for a lord to drive away all the people in his domain, whether it is the peasants who grow grain and graze for him, or the knights who lead his troops to war.

What's the use of leaving all the people gone, leaving the land empty?

Is Lothar crazy?

Of course not.

The reason why he made this decision, which seemed completely incomprehensible to others, was because he knew far more things than these people. He is the one who knows where the future holds.

After killing Primo, the information obtained from this necromancer revealed that the undead scourge in the Moonrise Kingdom would be the first to descend on the western sea. And the Barony of Dolan is the first to bear the brunt.

Faced with the initial offensive of the army of the undead, I am afraid that none of the many barons along the western coast of the entire kingdom will be spared. If Lothar had been given a year, he might have been able to turn Barony Dolan into a fortified fortress that hundreds of thousands of undead would not be able to gnaw on.

But with today's conditions, he simply can't hold this land.

So, the wisest option is to evacuate.

Allowing the people of the territory to migrate to other places will not only save their lives, but more importantly, it will reduce the chances of replenishing the army of the undead.

In the face of the army of the undead who can nourish the war with war and become stronger the more they fight, it is necessary to have a proper scorched earth and contraction policy.
