Chapter 246: Laying out the future
According to the ubiquitous rules of the Land of Bones, the soul of the Blood Baron is known to know that there is only one vampire family in the vast north, "Vladimir", and only one "Marquis" is at the top of the power. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the underworld, the Marquis of Vladimir is one of the giants second only to the Black Scepter Wolfga Messing in terms of strength and status, and the powerhouse who has stepped into the legend has initially contacted the rules, and moved his castle "Blood Night" into the spatial crack with the rudimentary realm to avoid being attacked by the Church of the Gods.
Baron Yuri Vladimir didn't know the deeper secrets, and Lu Bin only extracted the "Ancestral Hallows" from his memory fragments, a total of thirteen pieces, and Patriarch Vladimir had one of the copies of the "Blood Grail" at this time.
——————
In the distant past, after the vampire ancestor died and slept forever, his body automatically shattered into thirteen pieces, and each fragment of the remains was a natural holy weapon.
Since the Ancestors had secretly established a civilized kingdom in the rainforest region of southern Middle-earth, the faith and prayers of the peoples, combined with the blood source, succeeded in making it break through the boundaries of the silver species and ignite the spark of immortality with great difficulty.
Unfortunately, the indigenous god of the rainforest region, Insima, who presides over the sun and fire, has been watching for a long time. Taking advantage of the dormant period of the vampire ancestor's transformation and evolution into the god of the blood, a successful sneak attack severely damaged its unformed god body and robbed it of its divine spark.
The Scarlet Kingdom, which was essentially a large city-state with a population of 50,000, was also wiped out by the indigenous coalition forces in the surrounding area, but fortunately, the seeds of the Blood Clan had been sown, and the second-generation vampires took advantage of the chaos to escape from the rainforest area with the fragments of the ancestor's body.
Therefore, there has always been a legend within the Blood Clan that when the body of the ancestor is put together and the faith of the blood servant is offered, it is very likely that the ancestor who once stepped into the realm of gods will be resurrected and become the true guardian spirit of the vampire clan.

"It's complete nonsense! I guess the vampire ancestor is at the level of a demigod at best, and there's a lot of water in it. As for the indigenous gods who attacked him in the rainforest area, because they had priesthood, it was obviously more likely that the true gods would be there. ”
Lu Bin is not suspicious of the deduction of the buried bones, but now as the lord of Riverrun, he has many channels to obtain the deep knowledge of this world, although it is only a fragment, but it does not prevent him from collecting and sorting out the truth of part of the core of the world with the insight and vision of the two worlds.
It was only a hundred years since the sages of the gods walked on the earth, and according to books and word of mouth, most of the gods were successfully restored, but there were also many who fell.
A fragment of a shattered godhead, or an artifact that contains the immortal nature of a god, may lie quietly somewhere, waiting for someone destined to obtain it.
After all, after the end of the turbulent period, several mortals were qualified to become gods, and they rose from the crowd to become immortal gods with seats in the Pole Star Veil.
Thinking of this, Lu Bin's gaze involuntarily cast somewhere, "Thor Tyrese, who was originally just the son-in-law of the Fallen Knight Family, encountered a mysterious ocean current when he went out to sea on a certain boat and entered a mist-shrouded island. Found in the ruins of the temple on the island and approved by Thunderhammer, he became a demigod in a short period of time, and began to unite the conquest of the northern realms, establishing and profoundly influencing the Great Council of the North. ”
"Could it be that the current patriarch of the Tyrese family was lucky enough to get the lost artifact and got to where he is today. Now he is ready to embark on the path of becoming a god and lift the throne to the sky. ”
Regarding the fragment of the godhead whose whereabouts are unknown, or the artifact with unpredictable power, Lu Bin has never had great expectations after learning about it.
"I guess it's the children of the plane favored by fate to obtain. I'm a traverser, I know my own situation, and I guess I don't have this treatment. ”
Cleaning up the scattered mood, Lu Bin left his private residence Eagle Castle and went to a training camp in the northwest area of the outer city, built next to the mountain, to shelter orphans who had fallen to the bottom of their lives for various reasons, and to give them a warm family, so that they could eat enough every day and wear thick clothes to resist the cold weather.
Including Lu Bin, as well as his four retinues, they would take the time to teach the orphans, but most of the time they were under militarized management, so that they could get used to obeying orders and observing various disciplines.
There are quite a few "Tavern Watchers" and "Underground Archons" who have named this group of orphans "Children of Lord Rez", and the training camp is also called "Eagle's Nest" by the do-gooders, corresponding to the lord's private residence "Eagle Castle".
"It's not right that people outside see you as young eagles, growing up in the shadow of my wings and taking over the reliable team of Riverrun in the future. However, my original intention was to increase the population of the Pioneer Realm, and I did not want to see you young people die of hunger and cold. ”
"After all, I had seen a lot of these things in the early years when I was wandering in the wilderness. Without the protection of our families or parents, it is difficult for us humans and animal cubs to survive to adulthood. ”
"To be honest, I just did what I thought was right, otherwise my conscience would not have been quiet. As for now, the rumors outside have more or less affected me. ”
"You, as the young eagles under the protection of my wings, will grow up one day and break away from this eagle's nest to fight in the sky and find your own piece of blue sky. Whatever happens in the future, you must remember that in this big family, you are all siblings, and you are all my children who are not related by blood. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Bin couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw dozens of pairs of orphan eyes in the training camp, they were still young and very malleable, so they were easy to instill some private goods.
"As your 'father', if you have the qualifications of a warrior, I will let a senior mercenary teach you the art of fighting. If you have the talent of a spellcaster, I will have a group of mages half-elves or even elves to teach you how to meditate. If you have potential in other areas, such as forging, cropping, painting, and drafting, I will provide resources. ”
"But when you choose to accept it, our relationship is completely confirmed, and you have to repay it for ten, twenty, or even half a lifetime. ”
"There is no such thing as a free lunch, there is no pie in the sky, and what you want to get has to pay for it. But in recent years, you don't have to worry, when you are an adult at the age of fourteen, the opportunity to choose will come. ”
Later, in response to the current situation of the "Eagle's Nest", Lu Bin temporarily arranged some work, such as repairing several damaged parts of the camp and laying a gravel road to exercise their ability to assist.
Leaving the vigorous training camp, Lu Bin walked through a "wasteland" before entering the increasingly prosperous outer city business district.
The arrangement of the Deep Mountain Locks in the inner city is almost complete, with the Arcane Mage Tower and the Nature Mage Tower as the core, and it is ready to control any abnormal spell casting fluctuations, as for the outer city that is now ten times the area of the inner city, and is still expanding.
At the same time, it is also the best way to bring the out-of-town districts, which are overpopulated and have led to a series of frequent public security incidents, into order.
When Lu Bin stealthily took off the lord's gorgeous robe through the Book of Traveling Mages and changed into the outfit of a "wandering mage", he was like an ordinary person who easily blended into the crowd.
In the commercial district, the crowded streets were full of the sound of hawking, buzzing and quarrelling, the fiery air was filled with the smell of wealth, and every commodity glittered with the luster of silver.
Lu Bin listened to the citizens' heartfelt praise of "Lord Rez", of course, there must be people who will take the opportunity to vent their dissatisfaction, and there are many such voices, he finally understands why the big man doesn't like "micro-service private interviews", and at the same time begins to understand why the people always like this kind of thing.
Ordinary people do not have much right to speak, and few people listen to what they say, and if the problem is not solved, troubles will accumulate and become a silt up of the sewer. I hope to be able to give the people at the bottom, even those who have just been released from serfdom and obtained freedom, a chance to be promoted. ”
Back at the city hall, Lu Bin immediately "summoned" Archon Orik Tyrese in his room, "Nobles, I won't touch it. Isn't it something to encourage Riverrun City to be positioned not only as a city of mages, but also as a city of knowledge, and to change one's destiny by learning all kinds of knowledge?"
"At least in Riverrun, there are channels for all social classes to rise up so that the stagnant water can flow slowly and continuously, otherwise the discontent of the people at the bottom will clog up the sewers, causing dirty, rotten things to come up one after another. ”
Orik Tyrese finally understood, "Rez, my friend, I probably see what you mean. ”
As the lord of Rushing City, Lu Bin did not introduce any policies after the city was built, but now he has begun to dominate the affairs related to the future hundred years of luck in Rushing City.
"Through a strict method of knowledge level assessment, the people of Riverrun, people from different walks of life, have the opportunity to change their own destiny. I call this method the exam!
