In the castle lord's mansion in the center of the Iron Castle, the Cheeses heard a plan for the entire Hammer County or the entire Greylion Empire. The project was named "Barrier". According to the description of the city lord of Wall, this is a long plan that has been laid out since the beginning of the last king of the Greylion Kingdom. The purpose of this plan is to ensure that all supernatural forces in the entire kingdom of the Greylion can be effectively controlled within the limits of the kingdom's control. And on this basis, build a complete magic monitoring system. And the executor of this plan is the current Grand Duke of the Hammer. This explains why there are so many dark inhabitants in a small iron castle, and confirms what Sander said earlier that every lord in the Hammer Realm is a spellcaster.

However, this only raises more doubts for Cheese, first of all, the first point is whether this so-called "barrier" plan is meaningful. It's like everyone knows that the day is divided into day and night. The rulers of each region are aware that there are those in their realm who will not obey them. And those who try to take these things outside of common sense under their own command or rule them have not ceased to appear since the beginning of human history. But they all failed without exception, and neither those who wanted to live peacefully with the dark inhabitants nor those who tried to expel them from the country had ever achieved tangible results. Some rulers may have succeeded for a while, but in the end, whether they brought the inhabitants of darkness to the world of light or actively approached the darkness, the end result was only tragedy.

Therefore, under so many failed cases, the attitude of the current human nations towards spellcasters or other dark creatures is neither contact nor active provocation. This attitude minimizes the losses caused by hasty contact. As for the areas that are actively attacked by the dark dwellers, the Church of the Gods will gladly go there to dispel evil and spread the faith along the way. In such an environment, Cheese really can't understand why the Greylion Kingdom wants to come up with such a "barrier" plan, and investing manpower and material resources in this is a complete waste of the kingdom's resources.

"Hmm...... With all due respect, Lord Wall, perhaps because I am too narrow-minded, I don't see the usefulness of this so-called 'barrier' plan at all. If he didn't understand, he asked, and Cheese believed that since the other party had taken the trouble to explain the content of the plan to him, he should not be stingy to tell him the purpose of the plan. Of course, Cheese was ready to get involved in the plan by the time he knew this, after all, he was only an outsider, and Wall told him that there was obviously a request.

"Haha, you can see it. Yes, this 'barrier' plan looks like the naïve king or lord who put forward the idea that all men are equal, and only the nobles whose brains are clogged with by opera and bards would be so naïve. They never understood that when we stepped through the door of the mysteries, we were already out of touch with the sun. They don't understand......" The Wall City Lord said this, his emotions became inexplicably excited, and he seemed to remember some profound memories, but he quickly sorted out his emotions and continued, "But this time, the person who proposed the 'barrier' plan was not over there. It was our side that took the initiative to find them. ”

When the city lord speaks of us, he naturally refers to beings like mages or vampires that are beyond the worldly environment. This is quite a novelty for cheese. Generally speaking, spellcasters or other dark creatures will not make their own demands on humans, and will usually take them themselves if they need to. And even if the dark dwellers plan to sit down and talk to a lord about something, it will be a long process to gain the trust of the other party, and although they often have a lifespan far beyond that of mortals, neither the bloods nor the werewolves have been impatient in this kind of matter.

"It's really a strange thing, can I ask who found the Greylion Kingdom?" Knowing the leader of the "Barrier" project, there may be a chance to get more information from his identity.

Wolf stroked his beard, and now only Cheese and Sander were left in the hall, and all other unrelated personnel, including the city lord's attendants, had left. And with his ability to protect the war witch, the old city lord is confident that his words will definitely not be heard by others except for the people in front of him.

"Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you. While this matter is a secret among the Hammerlord's higher-ups, it doesn't seem to me to be meaningful. It is said that the person who found the previous generation of the Grey Lion King to ask for the construction of this barrier plan was very powerful, and his gestures could cause visible magic fluctuations, so when he came to the Grey Lion, the king agreed to his request almost without any hesitation. As for his specific identity, no one knows. ”

Hearing the words of the city lord, Cheese slightly speculated in his heart about the time when the mysterious man appeared in the kingdom of the blue lion, and a bad speculation surfaced in the mage's mind. Because he happens to know someone who fits that requirement at that point in time. However, the person who came out of this inference was so important that Cheese already felt a chill just thinking about it. But he still managed to keep his appearance under control and not let others notice his abnormality.

"That's right...... But is it really okay for you to tell us these things so easily?" If we continue to discuss this topic, we may be able to learn more information from the castle lord's mouth, but this is not guaranteed that Wolf will not see anything, so Cheese chose to leave the topic aside.

Hearing Cheese's words, Wolf's face flushed slightly, as if he was sorry for what he was about to say next.

"Haha, actually, I don't say you should have guessed it too. Sander should have told you that the Iron Keep has recently been attacked by unknown forces. I'm ashamed to say that although I asked myself that no one could break through my defenses in a head-to-head battle, the Iron Castle was a city after all, and it was too reluctant for me to fully include it in my protection. No matter how hard I defend, there's always a way for them to infiltrate. ”

In this regard, several people who witnessed Shande almost being eaten by the rat swarm nodded unconsciously. Seeing their appearances, although they hadn't heard Sander explain what had just happened, Wolf also knew that they must have seen something about Cheese.

"So since I've shown my sincerity just now, I hope you can help Sander find out who those guys are as soon as possible. I'm not going to ask you to clean them up, as long as you know who they are, I'll ask Duke Binglie to send someone to help." Of course, if you are willing to help, I will meet all your needs after the deed. After saying his request, the old city lord touched his beard in embarrassment, although he didn't want to be the city lord, but this did not represent his reputation as the city lord. If he asks Duke Blazinghammer for help now, he will inevitably be ridiculed by the other party. So the cheese and others who appeared at this time became a timely rain.

Cheese and his companions looked at each other, and then the mage said to Wolf.

"It's a pleasure to serve you. We would love to help Iron Castle. ”
