Imerson was caught off guard when he heard his master mention his name, and immediately choked on saliva and coughed. He was dressed in a black robe, put on a mask, and deliberately raised his boots, and before he came, he begged his master to call him by a false name, for fear that others would recognize him as Randall's chief hunter.

The wizard also hopes to solve the ant plague and return to his old comfortable life. It can only be said that he thinks too simply.

The life experiences of the transcendent are destined to be different from those of ordinary people, and even if Emerson can return from the Everfree Forest, his wizarding identity will be exposed. Sylvia and Victor couldn't let a legendary wizard settle for himself, and they had to make further arrangements for him.

All this is premised on him coming back safely.

Heading to the remote wilderness jungle, the raid on the ant nest is particularly dangerous, and except for Victor and Caligula, no one else has the strength to protect themselves. Imerson's sorcery is strong, but his mentality is very weak, and his physical fitness and combat skills are not as good as those of ordinary arcane warriors. Only with the help of his peers can he greatly improve his chances of survival.

The team spirit of unity, mutual assistance and cooperation must be based on understanding and trusting each other. Imerson's sneaky behavior of hiding his head and tail is easy to do bad things.

What's more, there are no ordinary people in this room, Imerson wears a loose black robe, and puts a few layers of sheepskin in his shoes to think that he can hide from everyone's eyes?

He was naïve.

However, everyone didn't have time to look at him now, and even when Victor proposed the list of seats for the round table, they were absent-minded.

The dragon maid regarded the people present as companions, and Long Wei's oppression of the soul was automatically lifted. The curiosity after the horror is particularly strong, and everyone spies on the beautiful and bizarre wurmians in their own way.

Victor's reactivation of the Roundtable and the inclusion of those present in the family's power nucleus meant that wealth, status, and resources were tilted in their favor. This is also to show that Randall will not easily sacrifice his followers so that everyone can focus on the next raid.

This should have been good news for the participants, but no one responded to the trust and favor of His Highness Randall?

The atmosphere in the hall fell into an awkward silence.

The Chaos Spiritual Power of the High Knight is able to freely express his will and keep everyone focused. And Victor's spiritual light is intuitively reflected in the charm, he is as beautiful as a god, and may have an unparalleled attraction to the elves, but in the current situation, it is useless for him to stare.

Victor secretly connected through a psychic connection, asking the dragon maids to go to the treasury to sleep, so that they would not stand here to attract attention and hinder the progress of the meeting.

Leila, Di Li and the other two dragon maids suddenly raised their jade hands to cover their red lips, yawned a few times, their expressions became lazy, and they did not say anything to leave, and left the military command hall directly.

It wasn't until their footsteps fell to the second floor of the castle that the attendees came back to their senses. Everyone wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, so they just sat with big eyes and small eyes.

Nelson, who was closest to Victor, didn't have too many worries, and was the first to ask, "My lord, .......who are they?"

The corners of Victor's mouth pulled into a mysterious smile, his eyes looked around the audience, and finally fell on Imerson's body, and said: "Imerson, the head of the Randall family's hunting, everyone knows each other. I would like to introduce him to the other side of his life...... Loyal to my wizard. Itugos, the alienated giant dragon that ravages the Swamp, was once a slave of his creation. ”

A breathing sound immediately sounded on the round table, and everyone's eyes were full of awe when they looked at Imosen.

Most of them have never seen the two-headed dragon Itugos, but the heroic deeds of the Queen of Roses slaying dragons have long been spread throughout high society. A specimen of Itugos' head still hangs outside the gates of Castle Black, where the Queen is celebrated.

With those two hideous and terrifying dragon heads, you can imagine the unbeatable majesty of that alien beast.

Didn't Itugos achieve the glory of the Queen of the Roses, and that the wizard of Emerson had fought against Lady Sylvia?

The swamp dragon lizards, ferocious wolves, and the elite guards of the Randall family in the mountain fortress are all the masterpieces of the wizard of Emerson?

The four firstborn two-horned, suspicious dragon-like maids just now, were also created by this wizard?

What a powerful and evil wizard, and thankfully I refused to marry him...... He doesn't want to take revenge on me, does he? The master has already subdued him, and he should be fine.

Everyone was thinking about it, and Victor grasped their state of mind at the moment through the change in their expressions, and said: "Emerson is an important member of the family, and his identity cannot be passed on. ”

The participants were awe-struck and said in unison: "As you wish, honorable master. ”

Emerson sat there fine, a black cauldron falling from the sky and slamming it on his head, smashing him dizzy, for some reason.

Victor did not explain for him, and continued: "You all know Bertina, His Majesty the Pope personally presided over the baptism of her remodeled body, and Father Miller treated her like a granddaughter...... What makes Bell special, I won't say, you can't ask. She's just a little maid in Silvermoon Manor. ”

Could it be that Bell, favored by the Pope, was born a god?

The master called out all the family wizards and gods, there must be something big!

"Yes. ”

Everyone looked at Emerson with a hint of imperceptible disgust in awe, and Bertina was full of love. The chubby Bell sat on the chair and shook his little feet, looking confused, blinking his big clear and pure eyes, and turned his head to make small movements with Aka.

Ignoring the opinions of these two guys, Victor bowed slightly at Charlotte. The blonde and blue-eyed female knight smiled gently, got up and said, "The master summoned everyone to the mountain fortress this time mainly to inform about the ant-man, according to the information we have, the three fortresses on the west side of the centaur hill may not be able to stop the invasion of the ant tide......."

According to Victor's explanation, she explained the excerpts and revisions to everyone.

When the Lady of Oath finished speaking, except for the heartless Caligula and Bell, the rest of the audience had a worried look on their faces, and their expectant eyes were focused on Victor.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the family territory is here, and we have no way to retreat, and there is no way to avoid it. Victor said indifferently: "War will definitely break out, and before that, the family should first find out the actual situation of the enemy. I decided to go to the Everfree Forest and scout the ant nest myself. If I had the chance, I would kill the queen ant and put an end to this disaster. ”

He stood up and said in a deep voice, "The lord cannot order a vassal to carry out a mortal task, and the vassal cannot sit idly by and watch the lord face the enemy alone. You all have to follow me to the Everfree Forest to raid the Ant-Man Lair, and I also took out the strongest force in the family, the dragon lizard, the ferocious war dog, the soul warrior, the arcane guardian, and the four battle maids who awakened the dragon's blood, each of them has the level of the golden rank, and the actual combat power even surpasses that of the golden knight. ”

"Wizard Emerson and Bertina are also going to accompany us. Victor looked at the wizard beside him and said, "No one should question his strength...... His power, you will know. ”

"Die for your lordship!" Nelson said, taking the lead, as the family knights and ferocious warriors stood up and saluted.

"My lord, when are we leaving?, I think the sooner we leave, the better, Ant-Man needs time to prepare, and the family also needs time to prepare, and we can go early to catch the Ant-Man monster off guard, and we can also pass accurate information to the family as soon as possible." Nelson made a suggestion, and Todd and the others nodded in agreement.

Victor knocked on the table, motioned for his followers to sit down, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Nelson, how big is the family's territory?"

"Huh?" Nelson's question made him a little confused, thought for a moment, and replied, "Counting the Raventown enclave, the Randall family controls 13,600 square kilometers of territory. ”

"And this mountainous area, 4,000 square kilometers. Victor paused and said, "Coupled with the 20,000 square kilometers of the Great Swamp, the Count Randall family actually controls 34,000 square kilometers of territory. ”

"My lord, 20,000 square kilometers of swamp is ours too?" asked Nelson in disbelief.

"Is the property of the Randall Earldom enough to recruit thousands of mercenaries and collect more than 100,000 mountain people?"

Victor asked rhetorically first, and his reserved smile was slightly meaningful: "I have been selling mountain forests and swamp resources through the black markets in Yeliu City and Pine Forest Town. And these resources were collected by Emerson in the Lizard Swamp under the control of a large number of goblin slaves according to my orders. ”

Due to the difficulty of collecting Zesheng resources and the wide range of uses, such as the Church's dragon vein potion formula, there are several raw materials produced in swamps, so the market price of Zesheng resources has been high. Most of the resources collected by the swamp scouts were intercepted and stored by the lords of the centaur hills, and a considerable part of them were used exclusively to trade with the church for places to reshape their bodies.

80% of the clam seasoning powder, glaze crystals, and common zesheng medicinal herbs circulating on the black market in Yeliu City and Songlin Town come from mountain fortresses, and the remaining 20% are the channels for swamp scouts. Because, the total amount of resources collected by goblin slaves is more than ten times that of swamp scouts. With just top-of-the-line rattan leather armor made from six-legged crocodile and giant snake leather, the mountain fortress now has a reserve that can arm 1,200 Swiftbird light cavalry. In addition, the goblin slaves also continuously transported all kinds of rare ores, the blood and silk of the shadow spider, the seeds of the thousand reeds, the feces of capybaras, and other materials.

If these things are calculated at market prices, the goblin slaves create a million gold soles of wealth for Victor every year in a swampy area of 20,000 square kilometers.

Victor has never confided in anyone for such a big event, and he is also very proud to say it at the round table today. Unfortunately, the reaction of the followers was muted, and none of them seemed to wake up.

It's no wonder that in less than a day's work, the vast majority of people will be shocked to the point of numbness when they stuff their minds with a bunch of secrets that they can't think of.

After all, the vassals of the family summoned by Victor have narrow visions and lack wisdom, and even if they have extraordinary abilities, they do not have the mental will and rational thinking of high-ranking knights.

Emerson ...... Timid and afraid, greedy for comfort, he is a kind and ambitious person in his bones.

Caligula and Bertina...... These two guys have endless potential, especially Bell, who has her own lucky aura and spiritual charm, her soul can also emit different fluctuation frequencies, unlocking the underlying structure of the elemental rune crystal is only one aspect of the function, this unique witchcraft talent should have application prospects beyond my imagination...... But these two are a pair of great foodies right now, and it's easier to expect them to admire my layout, than to get them some treats.

Nelson...... Well, apart from admiring me or admiring me, he doesn't need to understand other things, and it's hard to understand.

Charlotte ...... The senior female knight is only a thin line away from the real silver knight, but as long as she is favored and trusted by me, she is not as independent as Lilia, and even more clingy than the dragon maid.

Marcie...... I thought she was a power-hungry and ambitious homeless leader, but I knew that she was in a hurry to marry herself off now, and she had a crush on Todd?

Todd...... In fact, I don't have much ambition, and I want others to affirm my efforts and achievements and do something for me, but my potential and wisdom are a little worse after all.

Brandon and Klaus ...... Only 18 years old, as knightly nobles, they have just come of age.

Rogers and the Red Wolves...... One is a simple mountain hunter, and the other is a cautious thief, who has been cultivated by me for so long, and the essence has not changed much.

Victor looked around, and suddenly felt bored, he missed Sylvia very much at the moment. Only Sylvia can understand his brilliant strategy and offer valuable additions. In the next second, the image of Roland August popped up in his mind.

I don't know, what interesting thing is the "unreliable" eldest princess doing now...... Victor shook his head, restrained his floating thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "Those goblin slaves can't stay!"

No matter how much the goblin slaves bring to the Randall family, when Victor siphons off the swamp advance base, they will get out of control and cause a catastrophe. If the Ant-Man army reaches the western side of the Skylark Mountains, the goblins will be reduced to their food reserves, and if Victor solves the Ant-Man problem, the swamp goblin population will grow to an unmanageable level, enslaving the Half-Dragons and Ogres, posing a major threat to the swamp scouts of the Centaur Hills and preventing the lord from continuing to collect Zesheng resources.

On the other hand, the current state of mind of Todd and the others is not at all suitable for the expeditionary ant nest. Destroying the swamp goblin horde is a good exercise to get acquainted with each other, get used to it, and boost their will to fight and their state of mind.

Victor faintly felt that after these followers here experienced this expedition and raid, their hearts would be transformed and become truly strong.

As long as they survive...... Goblins must die!

"Next, you're going to rest in the mountain fortress for 10 days, and Charlotte will give you new equipment. Ten days from now, it's the rainy season of this year, and before the snow season begins, I'm asking you to complete the task of clearing the goblin population. Victor paused and continued, "I have mobilized 180 beginner-level psychic warriors, each of whom has the strength of a mid-level bronze horseman, as well as 15 dragon lizards, 40 ferocious war mastiffs, 40 seasoned elite guards, and 17 sword-wielding maidens...... Although the psychic warriors and elite guards cultivated by the family with special means are powerful, they lack curiosity and tend to ignore details. The sword-wielding maids trained by the Mercury Manor are as meticulous as a hair, and they are both 20 years old this year, they have long reached the age of marriage, and they have undergone body remodeling, and their posture and martial arts are excellent. If you complete your mission satisfactorily and win their hearts, I can give you the sword-wielding maid as a vassal companion. ”

The first batch of sword-wielding maids that Victor spent resources cultivating were mainly to accumulate family experience in this area, which was experimental in nature, and they hardly played a role. Of course, the main value of the sword-wielding maid is to win over the core members of the family as a reward for the lord.

The sword-wielding maids gathered from the Mercury Manor are all older, and Victor should arrange a home for them.

The posture and strength of the sword-wielding maids far exceed those of ordinary people, close to the level of the junior trainee female knights, and they are proficient in family affairs, and can assist their masters very well, so they are very good candidates for maids. The young Brandon and Klaus were obviously excited, Rogers and the Red Wolf didn't need to be mentioned, and even Todd, who had always been thoughtful, had a bright eye.

Marcy's eyes swirled around Nelson, Todd, and Imerson, and she bit her red lip and raised her hand to ask, "Master, can I ask for two sword-wielding maids?"

She wants to marry a maid with a sword and form a family of her choice.

Victor thought it was funny, but nodded in agreement, and said, "Of course, you are also qualified to choose a sword-wielding maid. ”

"I want to ...... too" Victor touched her little head, shook his head and smiled: "Baby, when you grow up, they are all old, but when you get married, don't delay them." ”

The crowd burst into laughter, which made Marcy's face red, and her writhing attitude was a little charming, and it was difficult to associate with the female butcher known as the "blood python".

After a small episode, Victor continued: "Todd, Marcie, you and my dragon maid Mei Wen are in a group, leading 25 beginner soul warriors, 5 elite guards, 4 sword-wielding maids, 8 war mastiffs, and two dragon lizards. Todd is the commander, Marcy is the leader, and the dragon maid is the liaison officer. ”

"Klaus, Rogers, you and the dragon maid Dilly are in a group, leading the same team, with Klaus as the commander, Rogers as the leader, and Digri as the liaison officer. ”

"Brandon, Red Wolf, and Dragon Maid Furgre are in a group, and the team is the same as the previous one, Brandon is the commander, Red Wolf is the leader, and Furgre is the liaison officer. ”

"The rest of the Psychics, Elite Guards, and Sword-wielding Maidens are under Charlotte's command, and her team includes Caligula, Dragon Maid Lyra, Wizard Emerson, and Bertina....... and your three squads are to obey her orders. ”

"Which of you still have any doubts about my arrangement?" asked Victor with a deep gaze, as if he was asking for advice, but in fact there was no room for any objections

Todd was a little afraid to get along with Marcy, but his mind was full of knightly hierarchy and never opposed the idea of His Highness Randall.

Brandon was gifted and intelligent, with the arrogance of a knightly aristocracy. Red Wolf comes from a humble background, is also relatively low-key, and knows current affairs. He smiled flatteringly at the commander, and Brandon shrugged his shoulders indifferently.

Klaus is calm and polite, while Rogers, who was born in the mountains, is unruly, but he knows how to be grateful, respects the strong and wise, and has a strong sense of teamwork. The two of them got along.

"My lord, I have a question. Klaus raised his hand to speak.

"What's the doubt?" said Victor with a pleasant face. Among the squire knights of Silvermoon Manor, he admired Klaus the most.

"My lord, your dragon maids don't seem to be very friendly, they are powerful, what should I do if I don't listen to my commands, or disagree with me?" Klaus asked respectfully, standing up and saluting.

His question was critical, and the other commanders and leaders pricked up their ears.

Victor smiled appreciatively, shook his head, and said, "You don't have to worry about my dragon maids not obeying orders, but if they use the title of 'His Highness Randall', it will represent my will." You must do what I tell you, understand?"

"As you wish, my honorable master. The three clan knights and the three fierce warriors all stood up and said in unison.

"If there is no other doubt, disperse ......"

"Wait! I have a doubt!" Nelson raised his hands, lest Victor not see him, and said angrily, "Your Excellency, you have forgotten me." ”

Victor was silent for a moment, then nodded at Charlotte. The Lady of the Oath Knight understood, and said in a soft voice, "Everyone go down and rest, I have prepared a room for each of you...... Klaus, Brandon, come with me, I have one thing to ask for your opinion on. ”
