In a small mining village, soldiers march in formation.

Romon stood and watched.

This is the method of Captain Shabid of Sir Demerka's family, who specializes in training the army, and by now, it has been almost twenty days, and the model of the army has come out.

But that wasn't enough, Romon wondered if he would speak to Sir Dymerka for another month.

"Looks like you're training well, Lord Lord, you're really planning ahead!" Old man Lu Lun looked at it and nodded, although it was far, far from the knights of the Lord of Radiance, but in the countryside, it was already about the same level as the baron's guards.

"I didn't know there was a demon plague before, can you believe it? It's just a kind of luck, including training the guards and the city walls!" Romon said with a wry smile, "It's not that I have the ability to plan ahead and be forward-looking. ”

Out of Luo Meng's expectations, the old man Lu Lun listened, but laughed, which made Luo Meng puzzled.

"Your Excellency, in our current situation and position, any scheming and insight will not be of much use, only strength and luck are the most important, and in the case that strength cannot make up for it quickly, it is really a most gratifying thing for you to have such luck. Old man Lu Lun saw that Luo Meng was puzzled, so he said, obviously, he had his own opinion on the situation.

Hearing this, Luo Meng also felt that yes, yes, now the situation is very clear, the outbreak of the demon disaster is just around the corner, I don't know if it is a few months later, Luo Meng's only hope is that it can be delayed until June next year, and the winter wheat will be harvested before the outbreak.

I once thought about filling in the gaps, but after really researching it, I found that it was useless.

The outbreak of the demonic plague is from the dark area to the ground, and the outbreak site is the weak place of the crevice, in the absence of a large amount of steel and cement, covering it with stones can only startle the grass and snakes, and it has no effect - some demons are excavated by spells.

After all, this place is also a weak place, and it is impossible for the demon to dig into a thick layer of stone and give up this place for a small stone - if this is the place of attack.

However, the necessary precautions still need to be made, for example, at the exit of the mining area, the construction of a crossed arrow tower, at least can play an early warning role, the reason is to prevent black spider monsters from appearing underground, which will not cause panic among the villagers, and will not leak the news of the demonic disaster.

"Fafer!" At this moment, the horses rode by, and Romon greeted the people above: "Come, go to the Interior Minister's Mansion." ”

Fafer did feel something, these days, he has been training desperately, but from level four to five, this kind of training, although it is not useless, it is impossible to break through in a short time.

Hearing the call, Fafer answered, turned over and dismounted, and rode his horse forward.

The Interior Official's Mansion, which is actually the Village Administration Hall, is where the two adventurer-turned-soldiers stand majestically at the door.

Romon gave a direct order, drove the three carriages inside, and ordered the soldiers to close the door so that no one was allowed to enter.

When Nick returned, he rushed back to the Forest House, where he moved the village hall and dealt with documents and affairs.

As soon as he entered Nick's office, he saw a desk of papers and Nick writing something in the pile of papers.

"Nick!" Romon walked over and sat down on a chair opposite, and when he saw that the other party still hadn't raised his head, he couldn't help but tap his finger on the table a few times.

"Romon?" Nick, who found that someone had come in, immediately raised his head and saw that it was Romon: "What, not staying at home, finally coming out?"

Romon knew that both Fafer and Nick were dissatisfied with their return this time and did not say a word about the situation, which was also a sign of their friendship, but it really couldn't be mentioned.

"Alright, Nick, don't be busy with this yet, I'm here to tell you something. Romon said solemnly, and ordered Fafer and Old Man Lulun to come over.

Seeing that Romon wasn't joking, Nick had to stop what he was doing, looked into the other party's eyes seriously, and asked, "Say, Romong, what's going on?"

"Smack!" a heavy box was carried by Romon to the table with both hands, and suddenly, there was a heavy sound.

"This is?" As an interior officer, dealing with money all day long, there is no one more sensitive to money than him, and Nick can already hear what is in his pocket just by listening to the voice.

When I opened it, sure enough, a large piece of glittering gold coins, a thousand gold coins, also weighed five kilograms.

Nick's gaze lingered on the gold coins for a moment, and soon, it turned to Romon's face: "What are these gold coins?"

Luo Meng smiled and said: "This is a batch of cave pearls that I got from the cracks in the ground, I changed some goods, and the rest is only these, a thousand gold coins, you don't have to worry about the specifics, I hope you can understand, if you don't want me to be invited to the city again, I won't be able to come out in the future." ”

I can't say anything, of course not, but I can't say it, after all, I can't solve the problem of the source of goods, and now I can only say it vaguely.

Originally, it was 1,200 gold coins, but Luo Meng left 200 gold coins in the Shennong Corner space, just in case.

"A thousand gold coins, and goods?" Nick immediately sensed that something was going on, he was finally not a country boy now, he had studied for three years, and he had been in charge of internal affairs for more than a year, and he was a little conscious, and after listening to Romon's words, he put his hands on the table and stared at Romon's eyes.

After a moment, he nodded and said, "I understand, I will accept this money immediately, and I can repay the loan in the future, what about the goods?"

"That's what I'm going to say, I've paid off the loan, and the goods are out there. Romon said.

Although he was a little prepared, Nick still gasped, the loan was 10,000 gold coins, and he even said that he would pay it off, what did Romon find out and what did he do?

Outside, first opening the first carriage, Romon said, "Fafer, these are eighty sets of leather armor, presumably enough to be armed." ”

Eighty sets, Farfell and Nick were taken aback.

Fafer went up to inspect it, gasped, and said, "Isn't this the standard leather armor of the noble guard?"

In addition to the Holy Sword Knights, they have a lot of money, and even their attendants all have chain mail to wear, and the standard equipment of the general army in the city is only this kind of leather armor, and eighty sets are worth a lot of money!

There are already twenty sets received in the space, and Romon didn't explain, saying: "Wait for next month, let the guards wear this training, get familiar with it as soon as possible, and let Captain Shabid, adjust, as for the spear, it's not worth much, let them train." ”

So saying, he went to the second carriage.

"This guy!" Nick and Favill looked at each other, stood up, and quickly followed.

"This is a standard long sword, one hundred and thirty! You also take an inventory, put down what should be placed, and store and arrange for the excess. Romon commanded.

Fafer stepped forward and checked it, it was indeed a high-quality long sword.

"Finally, let's take a look, this is a military crossbow, it took a lot of effort to do it, ten pairs, this kind of weapon, you have to strictly control it, don't be careless. Romon said with a solemn face.

"Shhh

"Also, Fafer, you come up, this knight's armor and spear sword, as well as the shield, are all yours, you take it back first and familiarize yourself with it, as well as the Dilongma, I have already sent someone to buy it, and I will send it back." ”

The Earth Dragon Horse, which is said to have a trace of dragon blood, is therefore strong and powerful, and is a must-have horse for high knights, otherwise it cannot withstand such a fierce battle.

Looking at this, Fafer was shocked, of course he understood that this was a high-level knight's armor, not only was it valuable, but it was also difficult to obtain, let alone a dragon horse.

To be realistic, the last time Luo Meng came back, Fa Fei Er felt very uncomfortable, originally, Luo Meng didn't hide anything from him, but now, he didn't tell anything to himself, the first time he was treated like this, he was very worried and angry, and it eroded his heart all the time, making him miserable.

There is also the scholar Lu Lun, who seems to be closer to Luo Meng than himself, and many things are discussed with him.

However, now this large number of goods, even Fafer, understands that the matter is extremely serious, if it is not for something serious, how can Romon not say it, if it is not for the brotherhood, how can he get these especially for him?

I don't know how much money it spent, how much it mattered, and besides, there was the fierce paladin...... When Fafer thought of this, the original grievance turned into guilt, and his eyes suddenly became hot.

"It's okay, one day, I will say to you, and the difficulties, will be over. Romon patted Fafer on the shoulder and said, "You just need to train, I still have some business, I have to go to the mine once." ”

Soon, I saw that Romon had already picked up a horse, turned over and got on the horse under his gaze, and the scholar Lu Lun also followed, as if sensing his gaze, Romon pocketed the horse and waved at him, and then urged the horse away.

"Nick, how much does this shipment have?" Standing in the doorway, looking at the black dot in the distance, Fafer suddenly turned back and asked Nick.

"Counting your armor and the loan repaid, there are at least 30,000 gold coins!" Nick said with a heavy face, "This time, things are going to be a big deal, don't lose your temper." ”

"Thirty thousand gold coins!" Fafer was shocked in his heart, and when he heard this, he nodded: "I know, I believe in Luo Meng, and I won't give him any more trouble." ”

As he passed by the training ground, Romon saw Haivawi, who was studying carefully with Captain Shabed.

Recalling his previous battle examples, Luo Meng's eyes suddenly narrowed, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face, and he said to himself: "Haivawei originally had a fourth-level warrior, will he also have a chance to break through?"

"Haivawi, is that him?" Old man Lu Lun looked at the man on the field and said, "Fourth-level warrior? ”

"But......" said Romon and said again.

"Are you worried about your territory and can't afford to raise two knights?" said the old man Lulun.

“...... It is true that he is new here, and although he has some friendships, after being promoted to the fifth level, it is true that my territory may not be able to keep him. Romon said with a wry smile.

"Before, it was indeed a problem, but now there is none, do you think, in the current situation, can he still leave? The Church of the Lord of Light and the Church of Order will not give him a way out, and now it is already wartime. The old man Lulun shrugged his shoulders and said: "Those who escape from the battle will be killed, so he has no other way to go, as for after the war, he can't survive, there is no need to say anything, if he survives, don't worry, according to custom, after the demon disaster, there are many ownerless territories, in terms of meritorious rewards, you can always get a viscount, maybe even the earl maybe, why can't you afford to raise a few knights?"

After a pause, the old man Lu Lun said with a smile: "If you can be promoted to level 15 or above in the Demon Calamity, and establish great merits, maybe you can still build a country, the founder of our Eske Kingdom, the famous hero Mekta, is also a survivor and hero of the last Demon Calamity." ”

In the end, it is a scholar, and he understands it, and Luo Meng nodded again and again.

In fact, Fafer already has a set of knight armor, of course, it is ordinary knight armor and war horses, since Haivavi has this potential, and he can't leave, it is better to reward him with the surname Suo.

Thinking of this, Romon was a little moved, so he shouted: "Haivavi, come here!"

"Yes, Lord Lord!" Havawi, who was studying with Captain Shabid, was stunned for a moment, and when he saw that it was Romone, he hurriedly answered, wiped his sweat, and came over.

"Let's go, get on the horse, and follow me to the mines. Romon said gesturely.

Haiwawi responded: "Yes!"

In a moment, he also rode a horse and followed.

The three rode up the hills, and in the blue sky, a mountain eagle was spreading its wings and soaring, sometimes rushing downward, sometimes patrolling back and forth, looking unusually handsome and majestic.

"Lightning!" Romont reined in his horse, looked at it, and barked.

The eagle apparently heard his cry, and with the sound of the wind, it fell straight down in front of Romon's horse, and the majestic appearance of the king of the air startled the horse under Romon's seat to kick back several steps.

Romon asked, "Lightning, did you find anything unusual?"

He looked at the big eagle in front of him, which was almost as tall as himself, and asked in a low voice, it turned out that since returning to the territory, because he couldn't leave the territory too far and couldn't reveal anything to others, so Romon let the lightning fly in the air in order to observe the situation around the territory.

"Gollum, Gollum. Lightning stood there with a majestic grunt, his neck grumbling, and through mental communication, Romon knew some of what it had detected, and his face became heavy.

"Thank you, Lightning, alright, let's go. Patting Lightning's head, Romon said, understood his words, and Lightning did not rub his feet, and as soon as he spread his wings, he flew back into the blue sky.
