Lu Xi sneered: "My qualifications, if it weren't for the adult's support, how could I be today, the adult's support for me, it's not because I'm desperate enough in the Storm Corner." ”

"It's good that you understand this truth, if you are willing to work hard, I am willing to give you more things. But the most important thing is that you understand what we want in the Marquis's Palace. ”

"My lord, I'm not that smart, I will do whatever the adults want me to do. "Lucy is really from a humble background, and he also speaks with his distinctive characteristics.

Xia He didn't like such people, but Lucy's loyalty was enough, he was originally a pirate, and now he moved his entire family to Sun City.

"What do I want you to do, you can do it?" Xia He looked at Lu Xi and asked seriously.

"Of course, adults can't let me die directly, at most give me a mission that may die. Lu Xi also said seriously: "Such a task must have its value." I sent my wife and children to Sunshine City, and if I die, the children will be taken care of by adults, so there is nothing to worry about. ”

Xia He smiled and said, "Whose territory is on the other side?"

"Duke Jesu. His territory is big, bigger than our Rhode Island, but on the seaside, there is a small city, and there is no communication in normal times. ”

"I want you to provoke and see how Zhesu reacts. ”

"Yes, to what standard?"

"Don't touch their civilians, and don't be afraid to kill people if their army or affiliated nobles are more excited. Xia He said lightly.

"Then I know, how long will it take?"

"Take your time, don't rush, there must be a reason, anyway, it's to create friction. ”

"Yes. ”

Lu Xi didn't ask anything else, only asked to what extent the specific operation was, and Xia He was very satisfied. Duke Jesu is an important figure in the House of Commons. But his territory is huge, and he is not rich.

Xia He suddenly wanted to tease him, but he remembered that he had encountered a bunch of things against him, especially the incident of the white sailboat, which was strange. It seems that his reputation is not terrible enough, he used to fight back passively, but now he takes the initiative to try it and see how the House of Commons reacts.

If Duke Jesu is strong, then there will be a war.

Although he said that he had not yet reached the realm of legends, he already had the ability to kill one or two legends.

The emperor is willing to give Rhodes to himself, not necessarily because Rhodes is poor, as long as someone is willing to invest in development, with the technology of the empire, Rhodes can still be developed here. Because of the large area and large population, as long as there is technology, it is enough to build a gold smelting factory.

In addition, the underwater raw coal in the northern seas is also a great wealth.

Others are too lazy to dig, but they are not lazy.

Maybe the emperor just let himself confront Duke Zhesu in the future, as for why, the emperor knows. Xia He is about to recover the realm of Yang God, his intuition is keen, and if he finds a little idea, he will think of a lot.

The thinking of a Taoist priest is different from that of a magician, and sometimes he can test it without evidence.

Xia He stayed in Daliang City for less than a day, replenished fifty more soldiers, crossed the strait by boat, and set foot on the territory of Duke Zhesu. The seaside is quite barren, and the climate here is better than Rhodes, but it is all mountainous, rocky, and there are no veins.

And on the side of Rhode Island, there is no fishing ground.

Xia He took people and went directly to the opposite city, which itself is also a military town, and it has not been established for a long time, and it is also used to monitor Rhode Island.

However, it is claimed that this is just a fishing port town.

After Xia He came, he went directly into the city, and the guards guarding the city knew the badge on the other side because of their duties, looking at the badge on Xia He's body, he was a little dazed, the blood mage is here?

Xia He brought a hundred people, all armed, and it stands to reason that he should be stopped.

But how dare he? Blood Mage is a person who kills people first and then solves problems.

After Xia He entered the city, he knew that there was no fighting strength here, and he was a little disappointed. It seems that Duke Zhesu really just sent people to take a look at the other side of the river, and he didn't make too many moves.

There are shops in the city, mainly selling food, and many of the troops stationed here will improve their food during the holidays. There are also some places of entertainment, which are not enough for outsiders.

There is nothing desirable here, Xia He originally wanted to come in and rent a magic airship, because the fifty soldiers on the new belt are still riding Trojan horses, and if they don't speed up, they can barely keep up, if they accelerate, the Trojan horse will be a drag at all.

Disillusioned, Xia He walked straight through the town and left at another gate.

Duke Zhesu's soldiers were all inexplicable and relieved.

The blood mage on the other side passed through the town like this, and if there was no one around, no one could get up to question the thought.

Xia He shook his head, this is an empty city, if a soldier does not have the courage to die, he is not much stronger than a civilian.

Some soldiers couldn't help but say, "My lord, just now I saw the people in that town, and I saw that you were very afraid. ”

"You're saying they don't look like soldiers, right?" Xia He glanced at the soldiers beside him, this soldier was a warrior up to level 20, and Medirli had cultivated him. The point is that he is very young, only twenty years old. He is good at swordsmanship, spearmanship, and has more than a dozen warrior skills.

"Yes, my lord, they don't even have the courage to stand up for a single person. ”

"If it were you, would you have the courage?"

"Of course, as a warrior, you have to understand your duties, and if you can't do it, quickly take off your armor and go home to farm. The warrior said proudly.

"Indifferent casualties are worthless. Xia He said tentatively.

"The Knight Commander once said that anything we do is worthwhile. Safeguarding the interests of adults is also one of the values. Without adults, no matter how strong we warriors are, it is impossible for us warriors to be together and form a deterrent to the enemy. We will only be individuals. ”

"Battle Song...... Did you learn?"

"Yes, just shout your name and we'll have the courage. ”

Xia He sighed in his heart, he didn't like this very much, it was okay to teach the war song to others, his elite core, there was no need to brainwash like this.

However, he heard the soldier say again: "The chief knight said that this skill is mainly for outsiders, and when we use it ourselves, it is at the moment of life and death. If you're going to die, there's nothing wrong with giving everything to an adult. ”

"You are so young, listen to me, the purpose of war is to win. So I hope you all make it to the battlefield alive. Fight the battlefield, that's because whoever is willing to work hard will easily survive. Outside of the battlefield, the way you do things for me is not to send them to death. I need you on the battlefield to win for me again and again. ”

The soldiers had long been submissive by Medirli, and they also admired Xia He very much.

What Xia He said is naturally a golden rule.

Xia He felt bored, but these young people were not as reserved as the fifty soldiers later. There is absolute respect for Xiahe, and the habits on the road are good, and when you see Xiahe pondering, you will never disturb. When Xia He is bored, there will be soldiers to talk.

Along the way, Xia He recorded the geography of mountains and rivers and corrected the maps issued to him by the empire. At the end of October, I arrived at the Tenth Academy of Magic. He had given up on his plan to hire an airship.

When he came to the academy, he arranged for his soldiers to live in the dormitory, but his people were all evacuated anyway, and a building was empty, and no one dared to occupy it.

The Tenth Magic Academy, without Xia He to take care of it, every time he came over, he wrote a report and changed some money. At the beginning, students were also selected, and later students no longer had the clean background and excellent quality they used to have, but they were mixed, and Xia He gave up selecting here.

Anyway, Freya has a lot of children all over the country, and there are already enough little Taoists in the Taiyin Immortal Mansion.

When he came back this time, Xia He slept first, and then went to the principal's office.

The magic tower said that it was not going to go, it felt too weird there. There's an indescribable gloom. Long, Xia He had a good impression of him before, I don't know why, every time we see each other recently, Xia He feels a little tingling in his heart. It's not fear, it's just that the most instinctive thing of his Taoist priest emerges.

Long's attitude towards him is different from before.

The first person to come to see Xia He was Nicholas. Nicholas was as young as he had been a few years ago, with a calm breath and not much to see.

"Nicholas, the academy suddenly asked me to come back, there is something, I am responding to His Majesty's call to send a fleet to attack Red Sea City. If it's a trivial matter, why invite me over!" Xia He opened his mouth to ask, anyway, he is the highest-ranking person in this school, what if Nicholas is the emperor's henchman, there is a higher one in the magic tower.

Nicholas's reaction was strange, and he was silent for a long time before he said to Xia Hedao: "I heard the news, the principal, she ...... Fallen. ”

"Headmaster...... You fart!" Xia He said angrily: "The power of the headmaster is close to that of a demigod, how can it fall! Who spread such a rumor, I will raise an army to exterminate the clan!"

Nicholas was slightly startled, the ferocious aura released by Xia He was really true, at this moment he felt like a demonic beast, being pressed under the powerful ancient dragon, and he didn't dare to move.

But after all, he was an epic mage, and he was not scared to death, so he could only reluctantly say: "My lord, this thing can't be faked, and no one dares to spread rumors, otherwise Your Majesty will be the first to spare him." ”

Xia He's eyes glowed red, staring at Nicholas, gasping slightly.

Nicholas Khan could only stubbornly continue: "If Lord Jennifer dies, I have to ask you to come back. Legally, you are the next headmaster. But I don't dare to arraign me like that, so I have to ask you to come back and report on your work. ”

"This thing...... Who knows?" Xia He cleaned up his mood and knew that Jennifer's death could not be blamed on Nicholas.

"There are only a few people from His Majesty and the House of Lords, and a few other headmasters of the Academy of Magic. ”
