In the year 755 of the Holy Spirit Empire, at the end of the year, His Majesty Charles IX personally conferred the title of Viscount William. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the addition of honors, countless pairs of eyes in the imperial capital have converged on William, the new viscount, secretly paying attention to his every move.

It was in such a situation that William made a move that everyone expected: he chose his fiefdom in Haiman Province!

After that, William did not go out of the gate, and the second door did not step. Seeing that the end of the year was approaching, William actually returned to his hometown by boat and returned to Kuwait Province.

Similar to the singing and dancing of the imperial capital, in the sunset town of Kuwait Province, the Lester family also held a lively New Year's party.

The lord of the nearby wildfire town, Viscount Mordo, came to participate.

The lord of the city of Abis, the largest city in the province of Kuwait, came to attend.

Even the Governor of the Governor's House of Kuwait Province came to attend in person.

A large number of aristocratic lords whom William did not know, as well as some businessmen who had close ties with the Restster family's beer business, were also invited to attend the party.

The Mengluo family, the Page family, Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, and the people of the Three Princes and the Five Princes' factions, who were far away in the imperial capital of Canaan, also sent congratulatory messages and gifts.

Among them, the gift given by Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, the most special, is a book.

His Majesty Charles VII, The Construction and Management of Fiefdoms: 645 Edition

Looking through the exquisite cover, on the title page of the book, William saw two lines of fine small characters written by Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, "The teacher chose Haiman Province as the fief, and many people in the imperial capital felt sorry for the teacher." But I believe in the teacher's vision!"

"In addition, I would like to tell the teacher in advance that my father will officially announce the ownership of the crown prince in the winter of the coming year. ”

Closing the cover of the book, William smiled.

.........

In the year 756 of the Holy Spirit Empire, in the early spring.

The sun melts the snow, the spring flowers bloom, and everything recovers.

After spending the New Year in Kuwait, William bid farewell to his father, Baron Bazado, and led a mighty team to the province of Haiman by boat and waterway to build a fief.

There are too many rivers in Haiman Province, like spider webs, almost all over the province, and it is extremely difficult to walk.

After arriving at the border of Haimanxing Province, William and the others abandoned their ships and took the land route instead.

It is said that it is a land route, but in fact, the terrain is mostly hills, and the plain terrain is pitiful. Even William, the owner of this team of more than 100 people, did not ride in a carriage, but rode a horse, and lived a life on horseback all day long.

On this day, at dusk, the queue of more than 100 people suddenly stopped.

Walking at the front of the team, the captain Dodora, who was in charge of opening the way, turned his horse's head and came to William's side, "Master William, ahead...... There was a group of people blocking the way. ”

William asked with interest, "Who are the people blocking the way?"

"I'm a little confused. ”

"They are skinny, as if they have not had enough to eat, and they are unclothed, but they carry weapons such as bows and arrows, sticks, and woodcutters. They're like ...... Like a refugee from the nearby mountains. ”

Hearing this, William nodded, and went directly to the front of the line.

In this position, William could clearly see a group of 'refugees' two hundred meters away from him without even using the 'Eagle Eye Technique' magic.

"Who is your leader?"

William unleashed a sound amplification spell and asked aloud.

As soon as he finished speaking, a person immediately walked out of the crowd opposite.

This man was dressed in animal skins, tall and burly, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Under the high bridge of the nose, there is a full beard.

He was very bold, walked out of the crowd alone, and came directly to William thirty meters away under the guard of William's team.

"Are you a nobleman who came to Haiman Province to play?" Glancing at William, as if surprised by William's youth, the man asked suspiciously.

William said bluntly: "I am a nobleman, but I am not here to play, I am here to build a fiefdom." Why, you're blocking the way, trying to rob?"

When the man heard this, he immediately shook his head, "We have no ill intentions. Just to warn you, you'd better turn around and go back and don't go any further to the Hidas Mountains ahead. It has been taken over by a flock of horned eagles flying from the Aaronic Mountains, and it is very dangerous. ”

"Hildars, Horned Eagle?" William was stunned when he heard this, and muttered.

He beckoned, and Dodora immediately stepped forward and delivered a scroll.

William pulled open the scroll and glanced at the map on it, and was shocked to find that there was no danger marked on the map next to the Hildars Mountains.

This map, which William bought at the imperial capital for a lot of money, marked the direction of the mountains and rivers in Haiman Province, the geographical appearance, and some dangerous areas where monsters were entrenched and robbers often appeared.

The map doesn't fake, is he lying?

As if to see William's doubts, the man explained in detail: "We are all villagers from various small mountain villages in the Hills. Every winter, a flock of horned eagles flies in the Aaron Mountains to spend the winter feeding in the Hills. ”

The bearded man said, glancing at William, "Just like now, we have no home and have to wander somewhere else. We won't go back to live until autumn arrives, the horned eagle has flown away, and the Hildas Mountains are safe. ”

When William heard this, he immediately understood.

As far as he knew, the Horned Eagle was a carnivorous, low-level magical beast, bloodthirsty and ferocious, slightly larger than the Eagle, and covered in black feathers all over its body.

A single horned eagle is not terrible, even an ordinary hunter, as long as he is stronger, can shoot him to death with a bow and arrow.

Flocks of horned eagles, but extremely terrifying.

They appear in large flocks, whether it is a living creature that can be seen by the naked eye, or a crop grain in a paddy field, it is a delicious 'food' in their mouths.

The horned eagle has excellent digestion, eats a lot, and has a strong reproductive ability. A female horned eagle can produce more than a hundred small horned eagles every year.

One or two horned eagles can cause more damage than a swarm of locusts, hence the name of the horned eagle, making it one of the most notorious monsters.

"How many horned eagles are there in the Hills?" asked William.

"There are many, too many to count. ”

The bearded man sighed, "In the past, every year in our various villages would raise money to invite some mercenary groups from other places to encircle and suppress the Horned Eagle. But the horned eagle killed a batch, and the next year another batch flew in, and we couldn't finish killing, and we were poor and gave up. ”

As he spoke, the bearded man turned and left.

"Wait a minute!" exclaimed William suddenly.

The bearded man turned around in astonishment and looked at William with a puzzled expression.

"The province of the sea is hilly, and wild beasts often haunt it at night. Now that it's getting dark, aren't you afraid of danger when you travel like this?" asked William.

"What if you are attacked by a wild beast?"

The bearded man said disapprerovingly, "We're used to it for a long time. If a beast comes, it's too late for us to rejoice. The meat of the beast can feed us well, and the fur of the beast can be sold to passing merchants for a good profit!"

When William heard this, he smiled bitterly.

His intention was to invite the group to come along and avoid danger. But now it seems that many of these people are obviously from Orion, as long as the people who guard at night are vigilant, ordinary beasts really don't need to be afraid.

"I am the viscount of His Majesty, and my territory is in the heart of the circle in front of the Hildars Mountains. When my territory is established, when the time comes, you are welcome to move to Yuanxinhai. William smiled indifferently.

When the man heard this, he gave William a strange look, turned away, and muttered: "Madman, what a madman! How can a city be built on the sea? No wonder he is not afraid of death, and keeps advising him to go to the Hildas Mountains." ”

His voice was very small, thinking that William and the others would not hear it, but William and the others heard it clearly.

In particular, Sumera, who was veiled at William's side, practiced magic and had an unusual perception, giggling when she heard the bearded man's muttering.

William's face suddenly darkened.

After the bearded man, who was kind enough to remind him, led a group of 'refugees' to retreat and make way, with a wave of William's big hand, William's main captain drove straight into the Hydas Mountains full of danger ahead.
