Ambition and vision often complement each other, if you want to achieve ambition, you must have the vision to achieve ambition, and conversely, with the vision to achieve ambition, most of the heart will not be so calm.

But whether it's ambition or vision, if you want to achieve your goal in the end, you still need one thing in the end.

Strength.

Absolute, simple, violent strength.

In the face of strength, even the Pope needs the support of the Holy Emperor. In the face of strength, even a cardinal would dare to order the Knights of the Holy Crown to storm the Emperor's guard camp to capture and judge a viscount.

Because of this, Xiao Yan attaches more importance to these practical things than to any title and reputation.

As a transportation fortress, in medieval Europe, the lords of the Rose Lords had to be weak and deceitful. If a major communication route is in the hands of a powerful lord, then his neighbors will be uneasy, because this powerful lord can expand his territory at any time through such convenient transportation. And the connection between these neighbors will be completely severed by the powerful lord.

It is precisely because of this that the Rose Collar is what it is now, and even the dwarves are reluctant to stay permanently. It was a chaotic territory where even its own subjects could not guarantee security. The lords there were denied the necessary security, and even those who could be loyal would kick themselves away when necessary, and then rush up to share the flesh and blood.

If you want to make yourself longer, long enough to make yourself stronger, and return to reality, Xiao Yan must change this reality and make his territory stronger, and all of this requires strong strength. And it's the kind that doesn't give the neighbors any time to react. Strength that grew almost overnight. After that. Then use the thunderous momentum to smooth out all the dangers around you one by one. At that point, it can barely be called safe.

What strength does Rose Collar have?

15 mages, although they have lost all their magic circles, but that doesn't matter. Xiao Yan also once fell from a double-ring mage to a mage apprentice, but as long as they have the knowledge of the magic circle and a safe enough place, these mages can quickly recover to their original strength. As for the loyalty of the mages, Xiao Yan felt that the concept of a permanent magic circle pool should be enough to shake the vast majority of mages. However, in order to build a permanent spell pool, these mages must learn to master gene points.

In other words, these mages must establish a connection with the Shijie Tree of this trial Shijie under Xiao Yan's guidance in order to obtain gene points from the Shijie Tree by completing various tasks. They can only buy more circles through gene points, and such a connection will keep them extremely closely dependent on the Shijie Tree and the access points to the Shijie Tree. As long as Xiao Yan set up a certain part of the Rose Collar as an access point, these mages would definitely obey Xiao Yan's words.

Now, Xiao Yan has a future mage group, and when he left Tosto, he also learned from the Knights of Punishment that Rose Territory will also have a new paladin order. In addition, these dwarves under Xiao Yan can also form a terrifying ground infantry cluster in the future. With such a strong strength, Xiao Yan couldn't believe that he was enough to sweep away all the ghosts and ghosts on the edge of the territory.

But. There is a question of unity among these strengths. That is, they are all "future", not present. From now until all the strength is formed, Xiao Yan estimates that it will take at least 2 years. In other words, if his strength has not been effectively improved, then he must ensure that he has a safe time in the Rose Realm for 2 years, rather than being hunted down and framed by those high-ranking lords.

Xiao Yan does not think too highly of his identity, the current pope has become suspicious of Xiao Yan, "the Lord's walk on the ground" is only an internal recognition within the church, in the secular shijie, no one admits that Xiao Yan has such an identity.

Therefore, in the final analysis, Xiao Yan can only rely on his liliang to see the reality clearly, and then let himself go through the most dangerous 2 years.

The princess who appeared now gave him the most haode opportunity, if the convent was built in the Rose Territory, then the Saxon nobles would devote more energy to coming here, which would make the situation in the Rose Territory more chaotic, and at the same time, it would also make Xiao Yan's situation more secure. The reason is very simple, the convent could only be built under the Rosa Collar under Flemann the Younger, and besides that, there is nowhere else that the princess can be given such an opportunity today, when the church has begun to expand rapidly.

This can be deduced by knowing the actions of the princess in Speyer.

The Holy Empire was so large that the princess could have built such a monastery in her late husband's domain, or in her own Saxon territory, but she could only go to Speijer and offer to donate her entire possessions. Such a reality has explained a lot of problems, and Xiao Yan believes that like him, the current princess actually has no way back.

Therefore, an alliance with the princess is an option that is beneficial to both parties, and through the covert support of the Saxon aristocratic circle, they can ensure their safety for 2 years. When the convents, the Teutonic Knights, the mages, and the dwarven infantry were all in size, the Rose Lords were no longer small places to be slaughtered, but enough to make the surrounding lords tremble.

However, it is not so easy to form an alliance with the princess, the identity gap is too big, this is an inevitable thing, and if you want the princess to agree to the alliance, Xiao Yan must do one thing. Do something that makes the princess immediately understand that the status gap is completely meaningless.

Showing absolute strength, and infinite future possibilities, with these two, any identity gap will only be like a piece of paper.

Therefore, after getting Goger's nod of permission, Xiao Yan immediately took out a Goth knight. Goger would not take responsibility for him in this matter, and Xiao Yan did not intend for the cardinal to share in his achievements. The consequences of what he does are borne by him alone, and all the achievements can only be enjoyed by himself.

However, when he killed the knight, the cardinal couldn't help but want a piece of the pie, and finally made some kind of hint about Xiao Yan's identity. Hearing Gogel's explanation, Xiao Yan secretly sighed, if the bishop didn't say those words, then Xiao Yan was ready to continue the attack and kill more knights. At best, he spent all the gene points he had accumulated in the circle pool in the past few days, and he could afford it. Compared to putting enough pressure on the princess to make her aware of reality, the loss of these gene points is almost nothing.

Sure enough, after hearing Gogel's explanation, Lelia bowed slightly to the bishop gratefully, and said, "Thank you for informing us, Your Excellency, that we have never seen that the Lord's proof is so close to us. ”

Speaking of this, Her Royal Highness the Princess turned her head again, nodded slightly at Xiao Yan, and said, "I'm sorry that my knight roared at you, but the Lord can prove that I have no offense against you." ”

Xiao Yan looked at the princess and said straightforwardly: "I am very interested in your women's convent, what Speiyer can't build, can be built in the Rose Collar." Because of who I am, you can trust my promises. ”

Princess Lelia shook her head and turned her head to look at Bishop Gogel, after not seeing any objection from the cardinal. The tall woman suddenly turned her head to look at her knight and said in a loud voice, "Go, go away!" I will pray here to the Lord with great devotion, and His Holiness the Bishop and Fleman are my proof. Stay outside and don't let anyone come near here until my prayers are over! ”

The goth knights obviously didn't expect such a change from the princess, and they glared at Xiao Yan with hatred. Goger's words were vague, and Lelia could understand them, but the knights of the guards couldn't understand them at all. Therefore, they didn't know what Xiao Yan's identity was, and it was impossible for them to know that such a gaze was enough to make them all be burned at the stake one by one.

Seeing that those knights were about to remove the corpses of their companions, Xiao Yan suddenly said, "No need, just put it there as a proof of piety to the Lord." Her Royal Highness the Princess's prayers may require the corpse of this man. ”

Relia looked at Xiao Yan again, and after realizing that she could not take the absolute initiative in this "exchange", she nodded slightly, and motioned for her guard knight to leave.

The corpse was occupied by the enemy, which was an insult to all knights, and even to chivalry. However, the cardinal didn't care about these at all, Xiao Yan didn't care about these either, and as for Her Royal Highness the princess, compared to the female priests, it was nothing.

When the door of the warehouse closed again, Xiao Yan looked at the pool of blood on the ground that had become dim, and whispered: "I know your plan, you can conduct an experiment in my territory, how to operate the female priest and female knight reasonably, I will not interfere with this." And the pressure of the Holy See is also borne by me, and correspondingly, the secular pressure on the Rosary Leader, you must also participate in it. ”

"Including your pioneering?"

Xiao Yan shook his head, looked up at the princess, and said, "No, we have limited responsibilities and limited rights for each other. You can shiyan everything in my territory, but you can't do it in my territory. Again, I will not ask you to wage war with my army, it is enough to play a role in the guard. ”

The princess was immediately interested in Xiao Yan's opinion.

In fact, Xiao Yan's suggestion just helped the princess solve some of the troubles, and Shiyan, who had enough time in one place, was more reassuring than the desperate investment at the beginning. As for defense, if little Fryman can really withstand the pressure of the Holy See, then only the Rose Collar can let the princess's female convent Shiyan go down in the whole of Europe, and for this reason, it is also very important for the monastery to participate in the process of defending the Rose Collar and protecting little Fryman.

The Holy See may allow one Rose Collar and will never allow a second Rose Collar to appear, at least for now. (To be continued......)
