Delimpel was the most prosperous commercial city in the Empire, and there was no one where the monthly tax collected from it alone was enough to make people count the money and cramp their hands. Later, Matthias discovered the sudden appearance of the magic spring near it, and used it to create all kinds of magic beasts, and the city naturally became more and more important.

Luckily, the city was within the royal family's sphere of influence and far from the dangerous front lines, so even as the rotten ship of the Empire swayed violently from side to side in the storm, its power room remained unscathed, giving the ship the impetus to keep going.

However, this situation of not being threatened in any way has only ended today.

After meeting with Nangong Rong, Charlotte sent his subordinates to follow and monitor them from a distance, and the knight said that he was good, and he did a beautiful job on the surface, but in fact, he was not very at ease with the young man. After all, no one can guarantee that Nangong Rong, who saw the treatment of his compatriots, would decide to tear his face with the empire in a hot mind, and if this situation really happened, it would be good to send someone to monitor him as soon as possible.

As for why Charlotte didn't directly put down Nangong Rong and catch him in Dresspel City, it was not because of any knightly honor, but because he was a little jealous of the special crystal weapon in the young man's hand, and he couldn't be sure that he could level the other party 100%. It's good to be caught, if the boy escapes, whether he runs to Echo Canyon or the Alliance, he will become an extremely headache for the empire - yes, don't think about the knight too well, the basis of his actions has nothing to do with dogma glory, but the interests of the country.

And now, Nangong Rong seems to be doing something that could harm the interests of the empire, although he himself doesn't seem to be aware of it at all.

In an urgent telegram sent to Octavir by name, Charlotte gave a brief explanation of the situation and reported the young man's latest situation to Her Highness the eldest princess, asking her to make a decision. After all, the eldest princess and Nangong Rong know each other and have a friendship that God knows if it is reliable or not, maybe the girl will really choose to settle this matter peacefully?

If you send the report to the little emperor, it is probably just one sentence - little ones, tear it up!

However, it turned out that the result of the report was the same no matter who it was sent to.

Seeing the expression on Octavir's face constantly changing violently, Vilentina finally couldn't help but ask strangely, "May I ask what happened?"

The eldest princess casually handed over the telegram: "You can see for yourself." ”

"Oh, that's funny, that guy is still alive. Virentina took the telegram and sighed with interest as she looked at it, "Is it the ability to travel to other planes, I didn't expect it to be this kid...... Wait, he's not happy with what the empire is doing and intends to build a Han Chinese settlement there in the group of lakes near the city of Drinppel!?"

"What's so interesting, wouldn't it be nice to just die like that?" Octavier said with a frown of annoyance, "I want to come out like an unbeatable little strong at such a critical time to find something, and make it look like the resentful spirit I killed crawled out of hell to take revenge." And if we make a fuss about the treatment of the Han people recently, can't this hellish nation accept the rule in peace?"

The pink-haired girl didn't answer this, she just waited for the eldest princess's anger to gradually dissipate before she unhurriedly suggested: "Your Highness, I think Lord Charlot's proposal is very good, how about you put on a smiling face and contact Nangong Rong and apologize to him? ”

Did you really do something wrong?Octavier thought seriously for a moment, and then decisively gave a negative answer: "I didn't do anything wrong, even if it wasn't Nangong Rong this time, I would still do the same with Duke Toronso next time I changed someone else." And if you compromise with that guy, the already restless Han people across the country will definitely be inspired and follow suit, so what will happen then?"

Valentina, who had a blank face on her face, lowered her head slightly: "So what do you mean?"

"Echo Canyon doesn't matter, you and I should go to Dresspel to meet this guy who has come back from the dead. I don't believe Nangong Rong's rhetoric, what kind of crossing over to other planes, maybe those monsters hidden within the alliance used some method to resurrect and control him, deliberately causing us trouble here. ”

It was clear that Octavir had regarded Virentina as her confidant and even best friend, and trusted her very much, and even told her about it. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess didn't quite know what was going on, in short, she somehow felt that the pink-haired girl could be trusted, and the other party did respond to this trust perfectly every time, and then unconsciously became the current situation.

If it weren't for the fact that Virentina was a genuine cute girl, and the eldest princess was convinced that she was not interested in Lily from a certain snake girl Lori, she would have even thought that she was in love at first sight.

An imperceptible smile flashed across the pink-haired girl's face, and Octavir, who was reassuring the girl and was contemplating what to do next, didn't notice: "Understood, Your Highness the Eldest Princess." If this is the case, it is indeed necessary to verify the authenticity of that Nangong Rong. How many troops should we bring with us?"

"You don't need to bring troops, just you and me, and Nakiris. Even if Nangong Rong gathered his compatriots, he was just a rabble, and he was the only one who could really fight. As long as we subdue him, the others will naturally scatter, and bringing troops over will also arouse the vigilance of the other party, right?"

"As you wish. ”

——————————————————I'm a dividing line——————————————————

The lakes outside Dresspel were surrounded by a not-so-dense wood, and the refugees who couldn't stay in the city had all camped in the clearing between the woods and the lake, so that when the city guards came to [patrol], it was convenient to escape and hide in time.

However, Nangong Rong did not choose the location here, because there were some bits and pieces of open space in the middle of the lakes, and he decided to settle there. Maybe it wasn't easy to hide, but it was easy to grow and fish, and the place was spacious enough to accommodate a lot of people, and the boy didn't plan to hide in the first place.

"The address has been chosen, what are you going to do next?" Mira stood on the edge of the clear lake and looked at her reflection and said to Nangong Rong without looking back, "Young man, if you want to contain a lot of compatriots, you will definitely not be able to rely on tents alone." The amount of military funds we brought with us is limited, and we have to buy magic crystals, and there are not many that can really be used to build camps. ”

Nangong Rong was talking to the old man he had rescued with the healing technique at the moment, and after hearing the question from the glasses lady, he immediately looked over with a smile: "I know that the cost of hiring people to buy materials is very large. But why do we have to buy materials and hire people to build houses, and we don't intend to settle here permanently? It just so happened that this old man was a carpenter when he was young, and although he could no longer do it, he could command others and teach his own skills, and we could cut down nearby trees and build wooden houses under his guidance. So, you just need to buy some tools from the market and come back. ”

"Ah, this is really ......" Mira couldn't help but turn her head to look at the old man and sighed in her heart, "But what about food, do you eat fish every day? ”

"Are you underestimating our Han people's national talent in farming?"

It was the man who lost his daughter who specially explained it to the confused glasses girl, which made her understand the meaning of the young man's words. After Nangong Rong suggested that he take some technologically improved seeds from Mira's hometown and fertilizer from Razfeldne, who didn't know where the shadow was, the glasses lady said that it was indeed the boy and his compatriots who won.

If this group of people really lived here for a long time, it might turn this place into a beautiful and rich land of fish and rice.

Then all that remains is to spread the news that Nangong Rong has established a settlement here, and gather enough people to build and farm. There was no good way to do it, so the teenager could only take two volunteers to squat outside the city of Drympel, bring them back here or ask passers-by to bring the news to another city. Of course, we'll have to wait until tomorrow, but the most important thing now is to set up the tent first.

Before the group left Dresspel completely, Mira had gone into the city alone to buy some things, such as tents, food, and magic crystals. In view of the generosity of the glasses lady, the store specially sent someone to send the goods outside the city, and the delivery guy couldn't help but have doubts when he saw that it was prepared for the Han people, and Nangong Rong came forward in time to explain that Mila, a noble lady, was sympathetic to her subordinates, and saw that the old man and her granddaughter were pitiful and decided to take them in, so they specially purchased these items, so that they satisfied their curiosity.

It doesn't matter what the process is, and the boy won't be in a good mood to say it, as long as the things are in hand, anyway.

Nangong Rong deliberately chose a location far away from the center of the lake group, after all, there are many tourists enjoying the scenery or something, and it is easy to cause trouble there. The only good thing about this remote location is probably that it's spacious enough and not very obtrusive.

The boy was ready to be troubled, but the tourists didn't, perhaps because there were so many refugees in the neighborhood camping or leaving these days, and no one would be surprised. So in the end, the tent was set up safely, and the boy's wilderness survival (fog) officially began.

After distributing food to everyone, Nangong Rong disbanded the team and let everyone go back to rest. Everyone has walked a lot, including teenagers, and it is best to take a nap after eating and recovering mentally and physically. At the same time, Nangong Rong is also using the magic crystal purchased by Mira to charge the device, striving to make the system open the plane channel again tomorrow - that's right, the limit of the use of this thing is to open it twice a day when the energy is sufficient, exactly one round trip.

However, Nangong Rong was not able to take a nap peacefully, and soon a loud voice woke up the confused boy.

"Who gave you permission to pitch a tent here——!?

Nangong Rong, who hurriedly climbed out of the tent, saw a man who seemed to be a nobleman in his thirties and forties, followed by a few entourages, who were yelling at Mira, who didn't know why she didn't take a nap but was hanging out outside.

The glasses lady reacted very indifferently, raised her hand to hold the glasses frame to let the lenses reflect the dazzling light, and asked unhurriedly: "This land belongs to your family?"

Nangong Rong, who only felt a faint pain in his head, walked over with his hand on his forehead and sighed, "What's the matter?"

The slightly balding aristocratic man raised his chin proudly and snorted coldly: "The scenery of the lake here may not be as good as in other places, but its lake water is used to make coffee and black tea but it has an unforgettable effect, so some friends and I will often take water here and take it back to taste it slowly." Now, however, I've been told that a bunch of cockroaches have built a nest here, and I can't afford to pollute the lake and take your dog's life!"

Nangong Rong's face was so black that he had a fight with the bottom of the pot, and Mira next to him opened his mouth to dissuade her, but was stopped by the young man raising his hand: "I'm sorry, I'm in a bad mood today, it's quite bad, don't say anything." Some people think that after defeating their opponents, they can ride on their heads with impunity, and they will carry out crazy suppression at the slightest disobedience, and take it for granted. If it were only a few, I would have mistaken it as if I had not seen it so that I could not be out of sight and out of mind, but if it was like this all over the country, I would have to prove the difference between the Han Chinese and those who were willing to be enslaved. ”

The aristocratic man suddenly subconsciously felt that something was wrong, and took two steps back slightly and asked vigilantly, "What are you going to do, are you going to do something to me, a nobleman?"

The dog-legged entourage immediately stepped forward to protect him behind him, and pulled their pistols out of their bosoms one after another.

The musket was definitely not something that could be equipped by the guards of any minor nobleman of the empire, and the royal family strictly regulated this kind of weapon. It's a pity that Nangong Rong, who has a hot head, can't notice it, and the round ball crystal blooms with dazzling colors in the young man's hands.

"Do you know why our Han people are different from other conquered peoples? Because we have our own pride and dignity, and we have our own national soul. You can defeat us, but you must not insult us, or the struggle will continue forever. As for the current matter between you and me, since you don't intend to respect us, I'm going to fight until you respect us!"
