The sun and moon in the Xingtong Continent rotated again and again, and the four seasons inadvertently completed a new round of change. Unconsciously, Lin Wei has been coming to the Xingtong Continent for a whole year.

Tulip Territory.

The sky was red, the sun was sinking on the horizon, and the servants and guards of the manor came and went, showing the vitality and prosperity of the county.

In the past year, the tulip territory has been much calmer, the sword and the flower have been destroyed, and the overlord Jon in the territory has also been sent to the war college of the Huiyue Empire for training.

Inside Tulip Manor.

On the martial arts training ground.

A handsome young man in light armor stood in the wind, his hands on his chest, and a silver-gray cross sword at his waist. The thin and delicate face, the brown half-long hair scattered in the wind, and the sky-blue pupils were deep and strange that did not fit with the world.

In front of him, a burly young strong man, with dozens of sword-wielding teenagers in sackcloth, was practicing fencing in full swing, most of them were eleven or twelve years old, and their thin bodies were holding the long sword body, which looked very incongruous. Their clothes were soaked with sweat, and some of the children's arms were already trembling slightly, but everyone gritted their teeth and persevered.

"Alright, that's all for today. ”

The handsome young man spoke suddenly, and there was a calmness and solemnity in his tone that was not similar to his age.

The young strong man received the young man's order and saluted him slightly: "Yes, Lord Lin Wei." ”

During this year, Lin Wei silently kept his head in the tulip territory, constantly accumulating his own strength. Because he has a smart ball core, Lin Wei doesn't have to cultivate as hard as everyone else, he spends more time flipping through the collection of books of Count Tulip, and turning over the humanities, history and secrets about the Xingtong Continent that he can come into contact with. During this period, Lin Wei also deliberately dug up information about wizards, but to his disappointment, wizards seemed to exist in these written records.

Although in terms of wizard exploration, Lin Wai did not make very good progress, but in terms of the progress of his own strength and the development of Tulip Territory, he has made brilliant achievements.

Just a few days ago, the smart ball core finished analyzing the knight cultivation method of the Great Knight stage, and Lin Wei became a master at the Great Knight level. But in order to cover up the secret of the smart ball core, Lin Wei only announced the news of his promotion to knight. But Rao is like this, Lin Wei's talent has also become famous in the entire tulip territory, and even other nobles have heard of him.

Count Tulip himself was even more impressed with Lin Wei, and after just over half a year, Lin Wei was promoted from the position of captain of the 10th Tulip Guard to the deputy commander, and in the Tulip Guard Corps, his status was second only to the commander Naken.

The children who now stand in front of Lin Wei are the preparatory seeds of the Tulip Guard, all of whom are selected from the families of commoners, trying to serve the Count through their own efforts and gain an enviable social status and income.

Looking at the crowd that gradually dispersed, Lin Wei muttered to himself: "The only way for commoners to achieve success is to serve the nobles. At such a young age, he began to undergo physical and mental cruel training, and even had to pay for his life in actual combat exercises in the future......"

"Lord Lin Wei!"

Just as Lin Wei was a little distracted, a hurried voice came from Lin Wei's ears.

It was a guard on a war horse, and as soon as he got close to Lin Wei, he leaped over from his horse and bowed slightly: "Lord Lin Wei, Lord Earl has summoned you to rush to the conference hall immediately. ”

Lin Wei instantly recognized that this person was the messenger guard beside the earl.

"Who else?"

Lin Wei knew in an instant that the situation was urgent, otherwise the Count would not have summoned himself at this time when it was about to fall into the night.

"Lord Count has also summoned Lord Reruman and Lord Naken. ”

The messenger replied respectfully.

Lin Wei nodded, grabbed the reins of the war horse, he jumped lightly, flew on the horse's back, and drove the war horse towards the direction of the conference hall.

......

As soon as he walked into the conference hall, Lin Wei saw Count Lamo sitting in the center of the room.

At this time, Lamo's brows were furrowed, his eyes kept flashing with the essence of thought, and he rubbed the ring on his hand, as if he was thinking about something.

Beside Count Lammer stood Naken and another middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man had a light beard, his long hair was over his shoulders, his eyes were tan, which showed a wise gaze, and the whole person exuded a peaceful but steady temperament.

Reluminman, the first deputy of Lord Earl, is the titular administrator of the Tulip Domain.

"Lord Earl. Lin Wei made a noble salute to Lamor, and then paid tribute to Reruman and Naken with his eyes.

Reruman and Naken responded to Lin Wei with a smile, and for Lin Wei, both of them had the mentality of promoting their juniors. Although Lin Wei and them are only one level apart in terms of position, in terms of influence and resource connections in the tulip territory, the two almost crush Lin Wei. After decades of operation, Reruman and Naken enjoy a prestigious reputation throughout the tulip territory.

"Everyone is here. ”

Count Lamo glanced at a few people.

"My lord, this summons is so urgent, I don't know what happened?"

Reluman's voice is very magnetic, and people can't help but be convinced and feel good.

Count Lame's eyes drooped: "The kingdom is going to war. ”

War?!

Lin Wei's gaze froze.

Reruman and Naken glanced at each other, and both saw the uneasiness in each other's eyes.

"The place of the battle is on the southwestern border of the kingdom, and the enemy is the Xuejing Kingdom. "But don't worry, you don't have to worry, we're still far from the southwestern border, and the war won't spread to our tulip territory. ”

Reruman and Naken breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time. If the war involves the Tulip Territory, then as the top administrator and the top military governor of the Tulip Territory, they will be under great pressure.

"But the kingdom's orders have been given, and we must be prepared for wartime. "This news is still hidden, and there is about a week before it is officially announced to the public, and you must be well prepared in the intervening days. ”

"Reluman, you are responsible for handling the diplomatic work of the personnel stationed inside and outside the territory, and providing security guarantees and verbal condolences to the personnel of non-hostile forces. For the personnel of the Snow Thorn Kingdom...... Direct seizure. ”

There was a hint of coldness in the earl's tone.

Reluminman's eyes tightened, and he responded, "Yes!"

"It seems...... The extent of this war was somewhat more intense than expected. Lin Wei had a rough estimate of the situation in the kingdom this time.
