Chapter 126: Pick up the pace

There were 20 people when they came, and when they went back, they didn't become 21 as they expected, but one less.

The thief's body could not be brought back, in such a dangerous area, they could not guarantee that they had lost most of their various equipment and props, not to mention a corpse, and in the end they could only burn the corpse and then take the ashes on the road.

Although Langdon let them go in the end, they had lost the courage to forcibly take Langdon, even though Langdon was standing less than 20 meters away from them, and the number of guards around them combined was less than 100, they still didn't make a move, just looked at Langdon with an extremely complicated look, and then retreated.

It was a look of hatred and fear, they had experienced many battles large and small, and they were almost never afraid, however, they felt fear in the face of Langdon, not because of how vicious Langdon's methods of killing their companion were, but because of Langdon's attitude when he faced all this, that kind of ...... Absolute indifference, as if it was not a person who died in front of him, but a ...... Anything, ants, mosquitoes...... Anyway, not people!

This kind of disregard for life makes those of them who hold an average of more than 100 lives in their hands feel chilled!

Of course, they didn't know that when Langdon said those words, his brain kept running normally, but the whole person's emotions completely sank into the memory of his predecessor, which is equivalent to dividing people's thinking and emotions into two layers, and what they saw was only one of them, the layer of thinking, the layer without the slightest emotion.

This is a technique that Langdon has long discovered, the first person he killed after coming to this world, Vivian's female assassin, he used this method, not only successfully suppressed the vomiting caused by this killing, but also successfully frightened the minotaur butler, and this time, he successfully frightened everyone on the other side.

After experiencing the discomfort of coming here at first, Langdon has long been not afraid of killing, but he still does not like to kill, but he also knows very well that in such a world, such a place, if you don't kill people, you will be killed.

Just like this time, if he hadn't killed the thief, he would never have been able to scare the other party so easily and force them back.

The other party said that they were here to invite him, but who knows if they will still be restrained after being captured by such an almost humiliating capture, they may not kill Langdon, but they will do it to others, or vent these anger on Langdon, anyway, as long as Langdon is brought back alive.

Even, maybe the purpose of their mission is not only one, maybe some of them have received other tasks, such as ...... Kill Langdon!

They left, but the impact on Langdon was not small at all, they made Langdon realize that Langdon was still very weak now, and at the same time, the arrival of a group of people from the earthly world also reminded Langdon once again that this world was far much bigger than what he could see now, and above that top wall, there were not only people waiting for him, but also a wider world waiting for him.

"You say, what is the best way to make the population of my territory increase rapidly and the strength of my territory to increase rapidly?"

Langdon stood in front of a glass on the highest floor of the Lord's Palace, where he could see the whole town, and even when the town was doubled in size, he could still see everything, so when Langdon occasionally had free time, he liked to stand here and look at the town he had built himself.

Maybe it was built by the lord system, but it wouldn't have been possible without Langdon's own efforts.

This question was obviously not asked to Hogg behind him, because after Langdon asked this question, he immediately gave his own answer, "War, that's right, it's war, these forces around, as long as they can defeat any of them, the territory area will increase exponentially, and the number of inhabitants in the territory can directly reach more than 10,000, and the number of troops can easily exceed 1,000, this kind of strength is enough for me to gain a firm foothold in this place, at that time, I can go to the top to take a look." ”

Langdon raised his hand, pointed to it, and then smiled again.

"But, who can I fight? None of these forces around me can afford to provoke now, oh, it's sad to say this, but it's also true, so it's better to honestly continue my route of building high walls and accumulating grain for a hundred years without changing!

After a pause, Langdon thought for a moment, and then said, "It seems that I forgot about our guest again?"

He's talking, of course, it's Theor, this time she's been forgotten for longer, but it's good that last time Langdon ordered someone to bring her food and take care of her daily life, so this time she won't be as embarrassed as last time.

"So, did the Wall family send someone? they wouldn't really abandon her, would they?" asked Langdon.

"It seems so, my lord, the Wall family did not send any envoys, and it seems that Miss Tior has become an outcast. Lu Zijing replied.

"That mother of Wall is really ruthless, how can I say that this is also her daughter, just because she lost a battle and hundreds of people died, she didn't even want her daughter, and she was thinking about blackmailing a sum of money, but now it seems that there is no chance. ”

Langdon shrugged his shoulders and said: "Let's go, go and meet that Miss Tior, in addition, let people prepare, prepare to send an envoy to the Vol family's mission, Mihai They should be back soon, when the time comes, whoever they come back first will go, Zijing, are you going?"

Lu Zijing shook his head and said, "What's the point of going around and doing something like this? I might as well stay here, if those guys really come back, then I'm busy." ”

"Yes, then let them take it with them, but it will be hard for them to send them out again as soon as they come back, but I believe that with those things, they will not mind. ”

Langdon raised his feet as he spoke, and was about to leave, walking out a few steps, suddenly his footsteps paused, as if something sounded, and he turned his head and said to Lu Zijing: "You have already finished reading my plan, right? Although I don't know how many people they can bring back this time, I think that the plan can be implemented, and we need to speed up the pace!"
