That night, Leon had dinner at the Viscount Tariq's Mansion and met the current Viscount Tariq, fourteen-year-old Lykrit Tariq. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The Viscount Tariq family has been a bit sparse in recent years, Viscount Rayson left two sons and two daughters, which is theoretically a lot, but the eldest son did not have time to leave an heir because of a frightened mount during a hunting, and even a man and a horse fell off the cliff, and even a complete body could not be found; the two daughters did not give birth to a son after they got married; so the youngest son Lycrit became the sole heir to the title, and was working hard to learn political knowledge and strive to become a qualified noble lord.

But looking at his appearance, Leon was a little worried—Lycrit was a little thin, very thin, and didn't look like he had much courage. The worst thing is that Leon can see at a glance that this kid's force is worth ...... Approximately equal to zero.

"Uncle Nick, your magic is so powerful, why don't you teach him?" Leon asked, "This world is not peaceful, and it is better to protect yourself if you have some skills." ”

"His intelligence is not high, and it is better to study government affairs hard now. Old Nick smiled and said, "I can live another twenty or thirty years, and even if my lifespan is up, with my strength, whether it is transformed into an undead creature or a constructing creature, it is not difficult." With me protecting him, he doesn't have to be in such a hurry to increase his force. ”

"Learn a little swordsmanship or magic, how much time can you delay......"

"Do you think everyone is as talented as you?" Old Nick laughed, "You envious and jealous fellow, don't judge others by your standards!"

Leon thought about it and smiled.

After laughing. He told Old Nick and Lycrit some of the information he had gotten, only to find that they were not surprised.

"It seems that you really have to be mentally prepared. Old Nick sighed. "My lord, I'm afraid we have to leave. ”

"Hmm. Let's go. "Licriit doesn't mean to be nostalgic, "Stay at the Void Mask Playground for the time being, and wait until this turmoil settles down." ”

Leon breathed a sigh of relief, he was really worried that these two people would suddenly burst into the romantic spirit of "nobles are going to die in their own territory", it would be too bad!

“...... It's just a matter of a nobleman dying in his own territory, and going to another country to fight a bloody battle, what kind of thing!" Baron Crick Keane jumped to his feet, slammed the call from the Archduke of Thunder on the table, and cursed. "What a retardation!"

"Perhaps, but it's a ridiculous order, and you have no reason to refuse. Knight Divor Os, who was currently his lieutenant, sighed and said, "As a lord directly under the Grand Duke, you must obey his call. ”

"I'm **** ancestor! This old thing just wants me to die!"

"I couldn't agree more with your judgment. But now we are faced with the question of how to deal with the call-up. ”

Creek sighed deeply, sat down again, picked up the call-up order and looked at it again.

[Baron Keane is hereby ordered to lead his troops to participate in the battle to aid the Eagle Kingdom.] Incorporated under Prince Halven's flag, and must arrive before December 1st, there must be no mistake!]

"By the way, Prince Helwin is also pure bad luck......

"Who called him a knight of faith? He wants to believe in the Lord of Mysteries, and perhaps the Grand Duke will not be willing to touch him. Divol shook his head, "The situation is clear now. Open up the knight, this is a desperate fight. If it can succeed, then with its prestige among the people. There is a little bit of faith to be saved. If that fails...... It was probably time for Him to fall. ”

"The fall of a god is none of our business!"

"The castles are all down. Will the people who live in it be all right?" said Nikolai with a sneer, "Don't complain, Lord Baron. Let's think about what to do. ”

"What do you say you should do?" Crick asked in distress as he thought about it, but felt that his mind was a mess and he couldn't think of anything to do.

"Give up your titles and fiefdoms. Nikolai said, "Come back to the Grand Theater with us, you have a lot of wealth, and you are a good scholar, and you can concentrate on composing operas in the future, and you can live a peaceful life." ”

"That's pretty much the most preferable. Divol sighed, "Although it is a very humiliating and immoral thing to instigate the lord to betray the feudal lord as a retainer, a person like you really does not deserve to die under conspiracy." ”

Crick frowned, admitting that his men had a point, but ......

"If we're going to escape, what are the routes?" he asked, "we can't run to the Void Mask Playground, we must use portals." But the portal on the national capital must be very tightly controlled...... Are we going to run to the Mystic Tower Federation?"

"That's all I can do. "And be quick, it's better to leave tonight to grab a time difference." ”

"But what about the people and the officials under my command? ”

"I can't care so much at this time. The old butler sighed, "The hope of the Keane family is pinned on you, if you die, the Keane family will really be doomed!

"I'm asking, what will happen to the people and my officials if I run away?" said Creek in a deep voice.

The old butler was silent for a while, and then replied, "I think I will be stripped of my territory and denounced as treason, and then the officials will be purged and the land will be taxed." Maybe in a few years, the territory will be canonized to someone else. ”

Crick frowned deeply, "What will happen to you and Anna?"

"Don't worry about us, and don't worry about Miss Anna. The old butler smiled, "There is nothing to be afraid of, you are the most important thing!"

"My lord, now is not the time to hesitate!" Divor advised, "you must go!"

"Yes, the faster you go, the better!" said the old butler.

But just then, the thief Raffle, who was in charge of intelligence, hurriedly ran in and reported that a high-ranking adventurer had appeared near Keene City. There is a group of knights in the Church of the Noble God who are leading the priest and mage into the city, and the head of the priest Maggie asks to see the city lord in the next few days.

"!" Steady as Divol couldn't help but curse. "They're clearly here to get in the way!"

"Maggie Smith is no ordinary person, she is very strong. It's hard to deal with. Nikolai frowned and said, "She alone is enough to choke, not to mention a large group of helpers." If you want to break through her obstacles and escape, it's difficult!"

"Isn't there a teleportation spell?" asked Divor.

"Divine teleportation, if it's a dimensional teleportation technique in the plane realm, or a general teleportation technique in the travel realm, but neither Thomas nor I have either realm. Nikolai sighed, "We'll only use any door, that's too short......"

"Get Master Darmswade. Maybe he has a way. ”

So Master Darmswade, who was in the research room, was quickly found, and when he learned of the crisis that the lord was currently facing, the mage took out a silver scroll.

"I don't know how to teleport, but I have this 'Regression' scroll that allows the three of them to return to the Tower of the Supreme together. He said, "I, my lordship, can bring another one." ”

Creek's men breathed a sigh of relief, and the old butler smiled and said, "That's a coincidence. Just in time to take Miss Anna with you. ”

Nikolai shook his head: "Let's let Thomas follow, although this guy is a bastard, he is still very tough under his hands." ”

"Wade Butler should be brought. "The Kean family will be revived in the future." It also relies on the experience and wisdom of Wade's butler. ”

"I ran away, what are you going to do?" Crick asked worriedly, interrupting their argument. "Maggie's gang is clearly not good!"

"Haha, as long as you're gone. We have a lot of options. Nikolai grinned and said, "We can do it." If you want to escape, no one will be able to help us!"

"Yes, that's the only way!" Divol nodded repeatedly, "Let's go now!"

Creek was silent for a long time, and then ordered the high-ranking officials of the realm to be gathered.

His orders were quickly carried out, and the group of officials who had been transferred and promoted by him, who were generally more than eighty loyal, gathered in the government department.

He talked about the Grand Duke's conscription order and the arrival of the elite of the Church of the God of Nobles, and let everyone express their opinions.

Just like Divol and the others, these highly loyal officials persuaded him to flee, saying that he could not run to the Eagle Kingdom to fight the orc army for such a ridiculous order, it would be completely sent to death!

"I can run, what are you going to do?" Creek asked.

The officials were dumbfounded, you look at me, I look at you, and then more than one said "there will always be a way", "the big guys will not use us insignificant pawns to discourage", "the territory always needs people to help govern" and so on.

Crick sighed deeply and shook his head secretly.

Once a prince of heaven and a courtier, even he himself inevitably carried out a great purge internally, and a few people died in the middle, if he ran away, the territory fell into the hands of other nobles, and these officials who were loyal to him were only afraid that they would be rolled.

And...... The people in the territory are already quite poor, and if they increase the taxes, how will they live? I'm afraid that this winter, there will be many people who can't survive!

The young traverser looked up at the wood grain on the roof and ceiling, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"I can't run away. He said, "Go and contact Aunt Lily, I remember that their family lived in a nearby town, and I remember that there were magic items that could be used to communicate......

However, after the magic item is activated, it only emits a red light, and there is no response.

"The goal of contact has been destroyed. Master Darmswade frowned and said, "If nothing else, your aunt may have been mistaken - considering that her family is on the way to Keane City in Stormwind County, we can assume that Maggie and the others did it." ”

Crick gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and took a few deep breaths to suppress his anger.

Now is not the time for anger, and anger will not solve problems.

"Get Anna!"

Anna is the younger sister of Crick Keane and one of only two direct heirs to the Keane family. She's only nine years old, and she's still a little kid who doesn't know anything. But even a child can feel the heaviness of the atmosphere and can't help but be afraid.

"Brother Creek...... What the hell is going on?" she asked scaredly.

Crick looked at her, his heart full of worry.

Is it really possible to put the family in the hands of this little girl?

But...... There was no other choice.

He thought for a moment and said, "Anna, are you willing to believe in His Majesty the Void Kamene?"

"Masquerade Void, big green jellyfish, brother, didn't you want me to try to believe in the Lord of Light?"

A wry smile appeared on Crick's lips: "Lord of Radiance...... At the critical moment, I am afraid that only the big green jellyfish is the most reliable. After all, He is a ruthless man who can kill two gods for the sake of the death of believers!"

"Actually, sir, you can ......," Divol advised.

Crick shook his head: "I can't do it, the military order is like a mountain." The conscription order has come down, and I have to give an explanation. Even His Majesty Mask Void can't shelter a traitor who disobeys his orders. ”

"Alright, let's prepare our troops. After making the most important decision, he felt relaxed, "I want to hurry up and write out some plans and plans for governing the territory, and when I am gone, I ask you to help Anna." ”

The officials were silent, and more than one began to weep in a low voice.

"Don't cry, I'm just going to fight, and I'm not sure I'm going to die. Crick barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "Maybe I'll be able to make a name for myself!"

"When I have won the battle, I will come back and marry and have children, and have sons of him...... Emmyway, are you interested in becoming a baroness?"

In the surprised and shy reply of the maid, he laughed, waved his hand, and asked everyone to leave, ending the meeting.

After even Emmiwei was kicked out of the study by him on the grounds that "I want to write a secret document", he did not rush to start writing the information, but looked around at the government office and sighed deeply.

"Nima, why am I carrying it like that!"

On his cheeks with a wry smile, tears slowly flowed. (To be continued.) )
