Chapter 22: The Dust Settles

There was silence.

Refuse?

Mu Yun directly refused the position of city lord?

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, everyone didn't understand what Mu Yun was thinking in his mind, did he know what the City Lord of Medicine City meant? Besides, even if there were thousands of reasons, Mu Yun shouldn't be on top of the main hall, when everyone was shocked and ready to celebrate, so directly refused.

Isn't this a slap in the face of a white man?

Bai Xing consciously gave a big gift to others, but was thrown back as garbage by others, and ordinary people would be unhappy, Bai Xing has always been a more traditional lord, so he attaches great importance to face, where should he put face this time? Everyone paid attention to the lord's face, and sure enough, the lord's expression was not very good, because when the appointment ceremony was announced, Bai Baixing had already issued an announcement in advance, and even sent a telegram to the medicine city, everything was ready, and the city lord's seal letter was ready, just waiting for Mu Yun to directly succeed to the throne.

A man who was not yet twenty years old became the lord of the city.

This kind of thing has never happened during the imperial period, it is unprecedented, and Bai Xing will even think that after this incident spreads, it may become a good story, showing that the lord uses people on the basis of merit, and does not taboo secular concepts and pressures.

Who would have thought, Mu Yun simply refused!

It's a bit impossible to get off the stage during the day!

However, Bai Baixing was not an ordinary person, he didn't show the embarrassment and dissatisfaction on his face, he just showed a slight look of surprise, and didn't ask the reason, just waiting for Mu Yun to explain himself. Mu Yun bowed to the lord, expressed his gratitude, and then said: "I am a light person, my talent is limited, and the previous city lord cannot convince the public, in addition, there are two reasons why I can't accept the lord's reward." ”

Bai Xing bowed slightly: "Let's talk about it." ”

"Mu Yun wants to ask the lord to help you two. ”

"The first is to intercede for the student Yan Wushuang, who is an apostle of the Akatsuki Church and has stolen the secrets of the territory, and her crimes are enough to be executed. However, Yan Wushuang has already returned to obedience and destroyed the Akatsuki Northern Headquarters, making great contributions, and I would like to ask the lord to forgive Yan Wushuang, and I am willing to pay for his crimes with a small contribution. ”

"The second is that I want to ask for the name of my maid Mu Ying'er, she is my maid, she is actually like a brother and sister, and she should not be a slave. Mu Ying'er has a special physique, and she has made great contributions and sacrifices in the battle to eliminate war demons. Therefore, I would like to ask the city lord to grant Ying'er the status of a sage, so that she can contribute to the Silver Snow Domain. ”

Mu Ying'er sat below, her eyes couldn't help but moisten.

Ask for the title of sage for Ying'er, then Ying'er is a virtuous and virtuous warlock recognized by the Silver Snow Domain, representing the face of the Silver Snow Domain, if someone attacks Mu Ying'er again, then you have to consider the feelings of the lord. The purpose of this is to alleviate the social pressure that Ying'er may face.

Young master, you are so stupid!

These two requests are still reasonable, and they can be done easily. Bai Xing frowned and thought for a few seconds, he felt that Mu Yun was a talent, if he didn't waste it too much, if he left the Silver Snow Domain one day, wouldn't he become a threat?

If the ambition is not here, what is the use of a false name?

Mu Yun very decisively refused: "The energy is limited, there is a specialization in art, Mu Yun is dedicated to studying the way of art, and he may not have time to manage the city." Speaking of this, Mu Yun probably guessed the lord's worries, Bai Xing was afraid that he would run to other domains one day, if this kind of thing really happened, with Bai Xing's character, most of them would attack him, so Mu Yun hurriedly added: "I have cooperated with the Yunyan Chamber of Commerce, and I hereby promise the city lord that I will bring great changes and contributions to the Silver Snow Domain in a few months." This kind of contribution will definitely be more meaningful and valuable than being the lord of the city and governing the peace of the party. ”

Mu Yun said so, what else could he do during the day, so he had to sigh slightly: "If you insist on this, then the city lord's matter, put it on hold for the time being." I will award you 100,000 gold coins, and still give you the title of Great Sage. Yan Wushuang was exempted from responsibility, and together with Mu Ying'er, he was awarded the title of sage, and at the same time awarded the Silver Noble Medal. ”

Mu Ying'er, a maid, officially became a sage title warlock and became a nobleman with a silver medal.

Sage and nobleman, the two identities are advantageous shields, which can relieve a lot of pressure on Ying'er.

Mu Yun hurriedly clenched his fists and said gratefully: "Thank you, lord!"

Bai Xing knew the way to control people, and saw that Mu Yunzhi was not here, and it was useless to force him, so it was better to follow him, stabilize Mu Yun first, and let him make greater contributions to the Silver Snow Domain. Bai Xing announced that the others had been rewarded, and then said one more thing: "There is a special messenger who is going to play today, so bring him with you now, and I can hear about one of you." ”

The guards bring out a frost troll.

Frost Trolls?

Everyone was surprised.

The frost troll is not like an orc, he has hardly ever appeared in the plains, so everyone is curious, this is an old frost troll, although he is very tall, but very thin, his face is full of wrinkles, he is dressed in a simple coarse cloth robe, and he holds a wooden staff in his hand, he has just walked to the stage, and immediately knelt on the ground, and made a supreme bow to the lord, in a not too standard Terran language, indicating his identity and intentions.

The frost troll's name was Cyntu, and he was once a very prestigious tribal leader.

When the Akatsuki power spread to the ice field, Xintu resolutely advocated not sacrificing to demons, and even wanted to drive the demons away, but was excluded and suppressed, so he had to lead a small tribe to leave the country. Now the ice field is in turmoil, the frost trolls are greatly damaged, and they are in danger of being wiped out by the orcs. Sensing that his opportunity had come, the frost troll traveled all the way to the Silver Snow Domain, hoping to meet the Lord of the Silver Snow Domain.

This is partly to intercede for the frost trolls, and partly to hope for support.

If Silver Snow supports Sintu, he will be able to bring his tribesmen back to the Ice Fields to stabilize the situation.

"Great Terran Great Lord!" the Frost Troll knelt on the ground, his attitude was very humble and respectful, and said in the crappy Terran language: "My people have been bewitched by demons and planted great mistakes, and now they have been subjected to the greatest suppression and punishment in hundreds of years, I beg the Great Lord to forgive our people for their sins and avoid the scourge of extermination, and the Frost Trolls are willing to submit to the Terrans from now on." ”

Daytime swept through the crowd: "What do you think?"

The population of the frost trolls is smaller than that of the orcs, but the strength of the race is very strong, if it weren't for the orcs in the middle, the frost trolls would have gone south to attack the humans. And compared to the half-orcs, the frost trolls have an extremely high IQ, and they are not inferior to humans at all, so it is actually a disaster for such a race to stay. Therefore, several ministers and generals are in the main battle, and it is better to kill this troll, and it is better to destroy the entire troll clan.

The frost troll's face was earthy, and he quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Bai Xing didn't rush to make a decision, his eyes fell on Mu Yun: "Great Sage, what do you think?"

The Great Sage is not an official position, but it is better than most official positions, and there are only two people in the Silver Snow Domain who have the title of Great Sage. One is the uncle of Bai Xing, the manager of the Sage's Tower, in the white clouds. The other is to build a teleportation tower and destroy Mu Yun at the northern headquarters of Akatsuki.

Mu Yun guessed what he was thinking during the day.

Although the Frost Trolls were badly damaged, it was actually impossible to exterminate them, but they were a large race of 10 or 20 million people, and they were not afraid of the cold, and could live on an ice field that even orcs could not bear. The frost troll clan has the value of the existence of the frost troll clan, and now the human race and the orcs are trying to establish diplomatic relations, but the half-orcs are very strong, and they are a hidden danger to the human race after all, so there needs to be a force that can contain the half-orcs.

The frost trolls and the orcs have long been mortal enemies, and after this catastrophe, the two sides are already a blood feud, and there is no way to resolve it for at least a few hundred years. Now the question is what the Terrans can do to help the frost trolls without offending the orcs.

Mu Yun stood up and said, "The battle demon is dead, the frost troll is no longer bewitched by the power of the demon, and now he has been greatly injured in the attack of the orc army. I think that I have already been duly punished, so it is better to exclude the representatives, go to the Frost Plateau, mediate the conflict between the orcs and the frost trolls, let the frost trolls cede land and resources to appease the orcs, and jointly establish a cross-ethnic economic system. ”

Bai Xing bowed his head slightly and said to Xintu, who was kneeling on the ground: "Are you willing to sign a defeated treaty and accept the request for land cession and tribute?"

Cyntu was overjoyed.

Xin Tu only thought about going back as soon as possible to clean up the mess, so that he could take advantage of the chaos to establish his position in the iceberg troll clan, as for cutting the land and paying tribute, it was better than being exterminated: "Willing, willing, thank you Great Sage, thank you Great Lord!"

Bai Tianxing waved his hand: "Then who will be the representative to negotiate?"

Mu Yun arched his hand and said: "The Yunyan Chamber of Commerce often has business dealings with the orcs, so it has a close relationship with the orcs, so it is better to entrust the Yunyan Chamber of Commerce to be in charge of the front line." On the side of Syracuse, send another representative to reach a peace agreement between the three clans. ”

"That's great!"

Xin Tu glanced at Mu Yun gratefully.

The atmosphere of the dinner was lively, and people toasted Mu Yun one after another, and Mu Yun became the great hero of the Silver Snow Domain, and at the same time became a famous warlock in the Silver Snow Domain, a celebrity with the title of Great Sage. Yan Wushuang, Qin Yue, and Ying'er also became sages. The most important thing is that this time the obstacle has been completely eradicated, although the Akatsuki Church has not completely disappeared, it is no longer possible for their power to continue to develop in the Silver Snow Domain. From now on, in the Silver Snow Domain, there is no need to worry about the threat of the Akatsuki forces, let alone tie your hands.

Although an unprecedented and huge step has been made.

Mu Yun did not relax, because after experiencing this war, he understood more deeply that time was running out, and he wanted to take advantage of his current advantages, and there was still little time left to make a big splash in the Northern Continent. When sufficient capital and strength have been accumulated,
