The village of Allen is located at the foot of the high mountains, backed by forests, and most of the people in the village are hunters who make a living from hunting.

In the evening of this day, the hunters who had gone out began to return one after another, showing off to each other the prey they had hit, comparing who had caught the most today, discussing how many precious furs they could exchange for in the shops opened by the lord of the town, and at this point, everyone could not help but admire the justice and generosity of the lord, so that their income was much more than before, and their lives were no longer so hard and tight.

Just as the hunters returning from the hunt gathered at the entrance of the village to relax and chat, a rapid, heavy sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in this quiet twilight.

The people at the entrance of the village followed the sound and looked up, only to see that at the end of the road leading to the village, in the red sunset, five majestic and mighty silver figures were driving tall war horses and galloping towards the village.

When they rushed closer, the afterglow of the setting sun made them see them clearly.

They were wearing heavy silver knight armor, dyed with a layer of dazzling gold in the golden sunset, and they rode on the horses of the tall war horses in horse armor and were vigorous, and on both sides of the saddle, there were long swords, shields, spears and other weapons, and on the exposed blades, a little scarlet blood did not seem to have dried yet, revealing a trace of murderous aura in the reflection of the setting sun.

Everyone couldn't help but get nervous, and they clenched their weapons one after another, ready to fight to the death at any time, and also to protect their wives and children in the village behind them.

Luckily, someone was the first to see the coat of arms on their armor.

"It's the knight of the lord!"

As this voice sounded, everyone looked at the chest of one of the knights in front, only to see a long sword on his back, and a black shield-shaped coat of arms depicting a nine-headed evil dragon on the front was impressively printed on the armor on his chest, and everyone's gaze at several knights instantly softened, and the bows and arrows and machetes in their hands also relaxed, and they turned to look at these mighty knights with eagerness and reverence.

This is the powerful knight that has been following their great lord all the time, fighting north and south, conquering the vast territory it is today, and exterminating countless terrifying werewolves?

It's just that how could these powerful and noble knight lords come to their small remote village?

According to what they heard in the town, only official knights were eligible to have the noble coat of arms on their chests engraved on the armor representing the lord, even if it was a black black iron knight, and only if he had killed at least one enemy knight on the battlefield with his own hands, he would be canonized as a knight by the lord and become the most noble lord.

According to the people of the Chamber of Commerce, there are only more than a hundred Black Iron Knights in the Lord's Knights' Order, and most of them are the soldiers of the Territorial Guard who followed the Lord Lord.

Just as everyone was excited, and their eyes were puzzled, the black iron knight at the front of the five knights suddenly turned over and dismounted, and strode towards the people gathered together with vigorous steps.

Under everyone's gaze, the mighty knight stopped in front of Old Jack, and then, in the incredible gaze of everyone, the noble knight suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Old Jack.

Old Jack was also a little overwhelmed by this sudden scene, but then he seemed to suddenly remember something, and looked at the sturdy knight kneeling in front of him with an excited face.

After kneeling, the knight raised his hand and slowly removed the helmet from his head, and a cold, resolute and somewhat familiar young face appeared in front of everyone.

"Father, Oliver is back!"

The young knight's voice trembled a little, and his eyes were red when he looked at Old Jack, but he forced not to let the tears flow.

"Oliver! My son! I knew it! I knew it! ……”

Old Jack was in tears of excitement at this time, and tried hard to pull up his son on the ground, but found that he couldn't pull it at all.

Fortunately, Oliver quickly stood up by himself when he saw this, looking at his tall and strong son in front of him, wearing powerful armor, Old Jack stroked the black coat of arms on his chest, and nodded excitedly.

"Good! Good! ……”

Only then did the people around react and began to talk excitedly.

"It's Oliver!"

"It turns out that Old Jack didn't brag! His son really became a knight! ”

"Our village has finally produced an amazing big man!"

"Little Oliver wasn't that strong before, but his archery skills are the best in our village, even better than his father!"

The women and children who had heard the news gradually gathered around the village, and the news that Old Jack's son, Oliver, had become a knight under the command of the lord, soon spread throughout the village.

Oliver was one of the first territorial guards selected by Chen Mo, and although he killed many soldiers in his first battle with Count Valen, he was unable to kill a single knight under Count Valen.

In the next few battles, although his strength became stronger and stronger, he never grabbed the opportunity to kill the enemy knights, and seeing his comrades around him become knights one by one, this made him hold back his strength.

It wasn't until a battle not long ago that Oliver fought bravely to be the first, fought hard to kill the enemy, and finally succeeded in killing a knight alone, and was finally canonized by Chen Mo and became a glorious black iron knight, and he also had four squire knights under his command.

This time, he was originally ordered to exterminate a werewolf that appeared nearby, and when he learned that his destination was close to his hometown, he applied to Captain Andrew to complete the mission and return home to visit his family.

The knights had never had a chance to go home at all, and this time it was rare to have such an opportunity to go home to visit, and Andrew naturally would not object.

So there was the previous scene.

……

After a year of expansion and construction, the territory under Chen Mo's control has undergone tremendous changes.

The economic and military power of the province is extremely strong, far exceeding that of all other surrounding provinces.

The promotion of new farming tools and new farming methods greatly increased agricultural output, but Chen Mo only collected a small amount of taxes, and for the first time, the commoners in the territory felt the happiness of having surplus food at home and not having to worry about food.

In addition, Chen Mo led the knights to constantly encircle and suppress the werewolves that appeared in the territory, so that the werewolves were almost extinct in Chen Mo's territory, without the threat of this terrifying beast, the life safety of the people was guaranteed, and they no longer had to live in hunger and fear all day long.

With sufficient food and security, the civilians in the territory lived and worked in peace and contentment, and their living conditions had greatly improved, far from being as thin and ragged as the civilians in other places, and all of them had a new mental outlook and a happy look on their faces.

Many civilians from other surrounding territories secretly came to Chen Mo's territory, hoping to become his territory, stay away from the threat of werewolves, and fill the stomachs of their families.

At this time, in Europe, the productive forces were extremely underdeveloped, the output of the fields was limited, and they had to bear heavy taxes, coupled with natural and man-made disasters, continuous wars and werewolves for many years of continuous killing, the life of civilians was extremely difficult, and the population was always very low, and the total population of the whole Europe was less than 10 million.

And as the most important source of productivity and soldiers, civilians were a very important asset to the lord.

All the civilians who admired the strength and stability of Chen Mo's territory and defected, Chen Mo distributed all the land, distributed farm tools, food, and seeds, so that they could quickly settle down and put into production.

After successively defeating several surrounding big lords, Chen Mo's territory at this time was nearly 10,000 square kilometers, equivalent to the area of several counties in the United Kingdom.

In addition to areas such as forests and mountains, there are also large areas of land that can be developed and cultivated, and the more the better, for the population.

Although with the expansion of the territory, Chen Mo spent a lot of troops on exterminating the werewolves, but the pace of expansion did not stop.

With strong combat power, sophisticated equipment, and the right time and place, Chen Mo's troops were like a bamboo, and one large and small territory was occupied, and many lords on the edge of Chen Mo's territory took the initiative to surrender before Chen Mo's troops arrived.

For these nobles, Chen Mo would ask them to hand over all the territories and powers in their hands, and allow them to keep their wealth, and make arrangements after Chen Mo inspected them.

Those who have the ability will be sent by Chen Mo to serve as consuls in different regions, and those who are not capable can also stay in the city and become a leisurely nobleman.

And those who have too much public resentment, Chen Mo will order the court to be executed directly after a public trial.

As for whether this will cause other nobles to dare not take the initiative to surrender again, Chen Mo doesn't care, for him, there is not much difference whether they resist or not, in front of his powerful knights, all forces will only collapse, and if he resists more, he can still train more.

It is worth mentioning that under the pressure of Chen Mo's army, among the lords who wisely chose to take the initiative to surrender, there is a person's name is, Victor!

When he actually saw him, Chen Mo confirmed the guess in his heart even more, the world he shuttled through this time was indeed the world of the movie "Tales of the Night", and it was before Victor became a vampire.

Prior to this, Victor had personally led his knight troops to exterminate the werewolves in his territory, and the forty elite knights under his command and himself were all experienced in combat and had good combat effectiveness.

For this special and elite team, Chen Mo chose to directly absorb it.

Chen Mo did not disrupt and reorganize like he did with the troops in other territories, but once again handed them all over to Victor to lead.

Chen Mo was not afraid that he would betray, not to mention that his strength could not threaten Chen Mo, this could actually be said to be a test for him.

After an in-depth investigation and a period of personal contact and understanding, combined with the plot in the movie, Chen Mo found that Victor is a very principled and stubborn person.

For him, the rules of nobility and the glory of the family are supreme, and even after his daughter Sonia violated the laws of the vampire family, destroyed the purity of pureblood, fell in love with the werewolf slave Lucien, and became pregnant, as the leader of the vampires, although he couldn't bear it, he was forced to personally order her to be executed due to racial laws and the principles in his heart.

The most important thing is that he doesn't have much ambition, unlike Marcus, the ancestor of the Blood Clan, who delusionally wants the undead to rule the world.

Victor has always believed in his heart that people are the masters of this world.

Of course, now he is just an ordinary human nobleman under Chen Mo's command.
