When Brown came out of the magic academy, a refreshing and happy sense of accomplishment that the conspiracy had succeeded welled up in his heart, and Brown couldn't help but look back at the vague spire of the magic academy behind him, snorted coldly in his nostrils, and thought to himself: My poor father, who has served you ungrateful fellows all his life, but you didn't even look at him after he died. The two idiot sons of the Covenas family www.biquge.info let you kill each other, no matter who wins or loses, before Viscount Covenas dies, the scandal of your fratricidal struggle for family succession will surely spread throughout the continent. When the time comes, I must make your Covenas family notorious, and you all be ruined, as a consolation to my father, Norman Stritch, that I will step on the corpse of your family to form my own Stritch family.

In the remaining days, Frank jumped up and down to contact his friends and classmates, asking for news of the Empire's counterinsurgency, and hoping that the Emperor would soon issue an edict to counter the rebellion.

"Master Leo! Master Leo!" Little Tom screamed and ran into the training ground, interrupting Leo's sword pose.

Exhaling lightly, Leo adjusted his breathing, slowly retracted his movements, and then turned to little Tom and said, "Little Tom, you are almost sixteen years old, you must learn to be steady, don't make such a fuss, let's say!

"Barony Cullen has sent someone, and Lord Ney has asked me to call you over!" said little Tom breathlessly.

"Oh?" Leo raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and he wondered a little in his heart, how could the Barony of Cullen send someone over?

By the time Leo arrived at the village office, the Barons of Cullen had already left, and Ney was frowning and thinking about a letter. Seeing Leo enter the door, Ney hurriedly stepped forward and handed the letter in his hand to Leo.

"Young Master, Baron Cullen just sent someone over to send a letter asking for help. Ney said.

"Asking for help, hmph, what tricks does Baron Cullen want to play again?" Leo sneered, unfolded the letter and read it carefully, and while he read it, Ney also explained to him the cause and effect of the matter.

In the Badlands Wasteland near the Varu Empire, the strength of the Wild Wolf Tribe is the strongest, under the leadership of Broken Teeth, the Desolate Wolf Tribe not only wantonly looted the borders of the empire, but even other races and tribes in the Badlands Wasteland were suppressed by the Desolate Wolf Tribe, and life was miserable, after all, the wolf cavalry of the Desolate Wolf Tribe was as strong as the wind, and they could also control the Wasteland Wolf Pack, and no one dared to be an enemy of the Desolate Wolf Tribe within a radius of 100 miles. However, not all tribes are willing to be oppressed by the Badland Wolf Tribe, and the Badlands Goblins are one of them, although the goblins are not strong and intelligent, they have an incomparably strong reproductive ability, which makes the Badlands Goblins a relatively powerful wasteland tribe.

The desolate wolf tribe was defeated in the village of Haruna, the three leaders of the family died and surrendered, and even the old nest was completely killed, after losing the suppression of the desolate wolf tribe, all the tribes in the wasteland were ready to move, among these tribes, the Badland Goblin reacted the fastest, they immediately acted in full force after receiving the news, and the entire tribe marched towards the border of the Varu Empire with the old and the young. Haruna Village is definitely not allowed to go, even the Desolate Wolf Tribe is bleeding, and the goblins don't dare to go to Haruna Village to find awkwardness even if their IQ is low, so their target is on the Barony of Cullen.

A goblin is weaker than an adult human, but there are tens of thousands of goblins in the entire goblin tribe, and this huge numerical advantage makes the Badlands goblins fearless against Barons Cullen, who wants to cry without tears. Fortunately, the goblin tribe dragged their families and led the way very slowly, and Baron Cullen sent people overnight to quickly whip up several nearby territories to ask for help, including the village of Haruna.

"No!" Leo coldly threw down two words when he learned what had happened.

"Young master, this matter still needs to be thought about, please don't be rash. Seeing Leo refuse so simply, Ney hurriedly persuaded him.

"Now this matter can be regarded as a foreign invasion, according to the rules of the Varu Empire, the nobles of the surrounding neighboring territories are obliged to rescue, if the young master refuses like this, it will be true, in case Baron Cullen complains to the imperial capital about the young master, it will be very troublesome. "Ney's aristocratic perspective naturally has his concerns.

"Hmph!" Leo sneered, glanced at Ney and said, "What rescue obligation? When the Desolate Wolf Tribe attacked Haruna Village, why didn't we see other nobles come to the rescue? Why do we have to help him, those goblins are doing a good job, if I don't help the goblins step on Baron Cullen, it's good, and they still expect me to come to the rescue, just two words: no way!"

Ney smiled bitterly and explained to Leo: "Young Master, in the past, Baron Cullen colluded with the Wild Wolf Tribe to attack Haruna Village, firstly, we have no evidence, and secondly, you did not send anyone to ask for help at that time!"

Seeing that Ney was persuading himself vigorously, Leo waved his hand, stopped Ney's words, and ordered: "That's it, you reply to Baron Cullen, just say that our Haruna Village has few villains, and we have suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Wild Wolf Tribe, and the remaining people are still insufficient to defend the village, and there is no spare strength to rescue him." ”

After saying that, Leo strode out without looking back, leaving Ney, who was smiling bitterly on the spot, to break his brain.

The next day, Baron Cullen, who received the reply, was naturally furious, completely ignoring his noble demeanor, which was the most important thing to maintain, and jumped to his feet and scolded: "This damn waste of the imperial capital! The garbage of the Covinus family! The scum of the nobles! I dare not save him when I see death! I will sue him! I will let him be ruined, and I will let him die without a place to be buried!"

It's a pity that Leo can't hear this, maybe even if he hears it, Leo won't care, dead friends don't die poor, as long as I live well, I don't care if you die, I'm not familiar with you.

At this time, Leo was looking forward to the first kiln of ceramics.

Outside the village of Haruna, it was already like a large construction site, and dozens of soldiers of the begging army were busy with their own work. Don't look at these begging sergeants, their martial arts skills are not high, their equipment is tattered, and they can only rely on a bloody killing intent to fight hard after going into battle, but when they put down their weapons, they are all skilled craftsmen with their own unique skills.

From firing refractory bricks to build high kilns, surveying the landform and collecting porcelain clay, to organizing people to cut down trees to make charcoal, and making various embryo-making tools, almost all the processes can be completed skillfully. Leo only put forward the idea of using the high-quality soil of the Badlands and Wastelands to fire ceramics at the beginning, and then let it go, but he didn't expect Li Gan and others to really give Leo a surprise.

"Lord Qi, the high kiln has been prepared, the clay embryo and charcoal have been prepared, and we are now ready to try to fire the first furnace. When Li Gan saw Li Ao coming, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted with his fists.

"Well, Captain Li doesn't have to be polite, hurry up and order someone to start a fire to see if he can really burn ceramics. Leo's face returned with no expression.

Li Gan nodded yes, turned around and waved his hand to the soldiers, and ordered loudly: "Warm the charcoal, pay attention to maintaining the temperature." Don't disappoint your lord!"

"Yes!" the soldiers ordered.

Firing ceramics is a painstaking effort, but also a slow effort, completely impatient, a little negligence a whole furnace of clay embryos will be invalid, Leo has seen countless pottery porcelain with the professor before, and has also fired it himself, seeing that the soldiers have a proper division of labor in an orderly manner, naturally they will not blindly command, casually found a place to sit cross-legged, closed their eyes and practiced their basic internal skills, to pass the long waiting time.

More than a dozen weeks later, Leo heard a noise around him, and hurriedly concentrated his breath, and when Leo opened his eyes and stood up, the little Tom next to him excitedly stepped forward and said to Leo: "Master Leo, the kiln is open!

"Oh?" Hearing that the kiln had been opened, Leo also had a little expectation in his heart, and hurriedly walked to the mouth of the kiln. A group of beggar soldiers gathered around the kiln and discussed something, and when they saw Leo coming forward, they all bowed down to get out of the way.

The kiln mouth has been exhausted, a piece of ochre red utensils were carefully moved out of the yard and placed at the kiln mouth, Leo stepped forward and raised his hand to pick up a careful look at it, this is a pottery bowl, the bowl type is a common sea bowl in northern China, the bowl mouth is full of eight inches in size. As soon as the pottery bowl was in his hands, he carefully looked at the glaze, which was thin, soft and unevenly distributed, and Leo inevitably sank in his heart.

An old pawn next to him took a bowl of water, took a mouthful and sprayed it on the pottery bowl, after seeing the water absorption rate of the pottery bowl, the old pawn shook his head and said to Li Gan: "Stoneware, inferior products, although it can be used, but it is far from enough." It seems that the clay is not suitable, and the temperature of the high kiln is not enough. I have to find a better clay or porcelain clay. ”

The firing of the first kiln was unfavorable, and the soldiers of the beggar army were inevitably a little frustrated. Leo looked around at everyone present, and saw that everyone was a little discouraged, so he said in a loud voice: "All the sergeants have worked hard! Although our first kiln failed, but you don't have to worry, although this is not fine pottery, but don't forget, this is not Huaxia, whether these stoneware are good, you can ask our little Tom to know!"

The eyes of the beggar army fell on the villager boy Tom next to Leo, who saw Tom carefully holding a sea bowl in both hands, staring at the sea bowl with only bright eyes, looking over and over again, like a miser admiring the treasure he had worked so hard to treasure.

Du Wei Li Qian slapped his thigh with his big hand, and grinned in pain, but then laughed and said: "The lord is right, the villagers are still using wooden bowls and spoons, even if we burn stoneware, it is at least much stronger than wooden bowls!"

Hearing what Captain Li Gan said, all the soldiers were stunned for a while.

That's right, even if the quality of this stoneware is poor, but not everyone can afford it in this foreign country, as for those fine pottery porcelain, only the princes and magnates can afford to use it, and it is also collected as a family heirloom, not that the guests are easily unwilling to take it out.

After the first batch of pottery was fired, it was first distributed to the villagers by Leo, and almost every household was able to get one or two pieces, and those who had contributed to the defense of the village even got a complete set of pottery, which also made the villagers full of gratitude for Master Leo's kindness and generosity again.

Within a few days, Og, Greman, Olix and others returned from the Wolf Tribe, bringing back the wealth that the Wolf Tribe had accumulated for many years and the good news that the Wolf Tribe had been completely wiped out and the future troubles would be eliminated, and the village was full of joy.

As the days passed, the bleak autumn wind added a little chill, and the news came out in the imperial capital that because the cold winter was coming, His Majesty the Emperor did not plan to use troops for the time being, and planned to wait until next spring to quell the rebellion. In this era of inaccessibility, the snowy winter was enough to block all roads, let alone fight large armies, and even the caravans that had been flowing endlessly stopped in the past. A small village on the outskirts of the country escaped the catastrophe and won a rare respite.

Barony Cullen also got through his crisis, after Baron Cullen spent a lot of gold coins to hire a large mercenary group, he finally resisted the surging sea of people in the Goblins of the Badlands, but Baron Cullen was also emptied of the gold coins by the casualties of the mercenary group, and the wealth accumulated by the Cullen family for generations was squandered in this crisis, and Baron Cullen, who wanted to cry without tears, was unable to deal with Haruna Village, but hated Leo even more.
