Chapter 173: Lord Morin is Back (Part 1)
Although there was a lot of luggage, Morin walked easily. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info I have to say here that in order to let him be able to fully enjoy his journey, Helena specially changed the space ring for him, and the new space ring is extremely large, with dozens of square sizes, which can be called a mobile warehouse.
The speed of the Dilong carriage was extremely fast, far exceeding that of other ordinary carriages. No matter how complicated the terrain is, it can pass quickly as if it were on flat ground.
After getting out of the bustling area of the Oran King City, where the carriage traffic was huge, the Dilong carriage began to speed up and galloped all the way.
There was nothing to do on the way, and when Morin was bored, he also took out magic materials to refine, and when he was bored, the refining efficiency was also extremely fast.
At that time, it took more than a month to travel thousands of miles from quicksand castle to Oran King City. Now with the Dilong carriage, it arrived at the foot of Hill City in half a month.
And in half a month, Mo Lin successfully refined the production line of magic armor and potions.
Hill City is still the same as it was back then, quietly entrenched on the earth, the only thing that has changed is that the people who rule here have changed.
At the gate of the city are quicksand castle soldiers dressed in steel armor, armed with steel swords and shields, armed to the teeth, deterring all lawbreakers. Let some merchants and mercenary groups honestly accept the inspection, and then enter the city, which looks very prosperous.
However, he had seen the prosperous Morin of the Oran Royal City, but when he saw this scene, he frowned. He now finally realized why the noble sons of the royal city of Oran liked to call the lands of those barons and viscounts the country.....
The seemingly prosperous Ciel City is full of ordinary people, at most some stout and seemingly tough mercenaries. Even a mage apprentice is extremely rare, and a formal mage can't even see a shadow.
This is the mage world, a place where even mages don't want to come, what is it if it's not the countryside?
Speaking of which, Hill City is not remote, and there are several roads leading to the Glacier Mountains. But the vast majority of mage mercenary groups do not take this road, but enter from a county territory only five hundred miles away from here.
The difference between the viscount realm and the earldom is only one rank level, but the prosperity level can be called the difference between heaven and earth.
In the city of that earldom, people who come in and out, formal mages can be seen everywhere, and there are many four-star mid-level mages.
Of course, the remote countryside also has the benefit of being remote, at least safe, and there are not many mages passing by, let alone fighting.
Thinking about it, Maureen smiled again. There is no doubt about the safety of Hill City, but he Morin is too strong in the face of the enemy, and it seems that his territory is very insecure.
He didn't want to let a big aristocratic force like the Ivan family threaten him again.
It's imperative to increase your territory's defenses and upgrade all of its powers!
Although Helena felt that it was unnecessary, the Ivan family had bowed their heads and would not threaten Hill City and quicksand castles again.
But Morin didn't think so, because he always held a grudge in his heart, even if the Ivan family didn't come to destroy him, one day, he would kill the Ivan family.
If you want to take revenge, you must stabilize your big rear, so that people don't send a mage at random to disrupt his big rear and make the chickens and dogs restless.
Moreover, the current quicksand castle Hill City is indeed his shortcoming, his seven inches. It's a terrible feeling to be pinched by someone who is seven inches.
If there are shortcomings, they must be made up.
In a way, Maureen is also a person with a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder.
......
"Lord Morin!"
"Lord Morin!"
"Lord Morin!"
At the gate of Hill City, as soon as Morin got off the dragon carriage, he was recognized by the soldiers guarding the city gate, and they all knelt on one knee and beat their chests and yelled.
This scene also made the people passing by at the city gate all look at Mo Lin with surprised eyes.
"He's Maureen?"
"I heard that he is already the fourth Grand Duke of my Oran Kingdom, and he is also the dean of the palace academy!"
"It's amazing, I really didn't expect that Lord Morin would be able to break out of the sky in the Orlan King City!"
"That's, I still remember the scene when he led a large army to attack the city of Hill!"
"Lord Morin is back!"
“......”
Everyone talked about it, and the people of the territory were naturally proud of their introduction, full of a sense of superiority. And those merchants and mercenaries from other places looked at Merlin with curiosity on their faces, seeing what this most legendary figure in the Orlan Kingdom looked like.
It's just the first impression of seeing Morin, that is, young!
Too young!
The youth is astounding and incredible!
The voices of everyone's discussion came like a tide, and Morin didn't care, nodded slightly to the soldiers who saluted him, and immediately got into the dragon carriage again, and went straight to the city lord's mansion in Hill City.
His fiefdom was not subdivided, but bureaucratic. Whoever can go up and down is a matter of his words. Of course, he didn't appoint people at will, who is in the position also needs to look at ability.
The current city lord of Hill City is a person with considerable governance talents, but because of the limitation of his vision, the Hill City he governs is only considered good in the city where ordinary people live, and in the eyes of those mages, it is still a small town in the countryside.
Morin didn't mean much to blame, let alone meddle in the management, but just asked the city lord of Hill City to inquire about the situation of his territory, and then let him retreat.
On the whole, his territory has developed quite well in recent years, and it has been steadily improving. The population, food, military, and economy have all increased by a large margin.
It's just that compared to Morin's growth rate, it's not worth mentioning.
Fortunately, Merlin only regarded his territory as his home, and did not think of building Hill City or quicksand castle into the first city of the Orlan Kingdom.
I didn't see this very lightly, and after knowing the general situation of the territory, I only stayed in Hill City for a short time. Waving off the soldiers of the Hill garrison who were to protect him, Merlin sat in the Terry wagon, and headed straight for the quicksand castle with only the grooms he had brought with him from the royal city of Oran.
Return to your heart like an arrow!
The closer he got to the quicksand castle, the more urgent Morin's thoughts became.
Desperate to return to this place, where he crossed over, where his dream began.
......
Compared to Hill City, the quicksand castle has changed a lot, and the road has been resurfaced and is no longer a rough road. The city has also expanded several times, and the new walls are extremely tall and majestic, and it is no longer the same as the previous country town.
And there was a lot of people on the way, filled with all kinds of caravans and mercenary group soldiers. Although the steel armor, steel knives and steel shields produced by Quicksand Castle are not worth mentioning to the people of Oran City.
But for those ordinary mercenaries who have not become mages or have not become demon knights, it is very sophisticated equipment.
Although the Glacier Mountain Range is a forbidden area for humans and a magical beast paradise, the people who enter and exit are by no means only mages. There are also many ordinary people who have an adventurous spirit and want to get rich, and there are not many such people, but there are very many of them.
Therefore, the ordnance business of quicksand castle has been doing well over the years, so that this remote mountain town of quicksand castle has become prosperous.
