"Beautiful young lady, good ......"

On the street, a faint sound came, Merlin opened his eyes, and saw several teenagers in tattered clothes, begging along the street, this scene made Merlin very puzzled.

The Holy Dragon Empire is vast and sparsely populated, even in the lord's territory, the lowliest people can do some chores to support themselves, and at the worst, they can also become slaves of nobles, ordinary nobles, in fact, are not too harsh on slaves.

Therefore, no one will starve to death at all. What's more, it's the bustling Holy Dragon City, and now there are actually people begging.

"They are?"

Merlin asked hesitantly.

"Young Master, they are refugees! The Holy Dragon Empire is in internal and external difficulties, and it is not only us who suffers, but also these civilians, who are now refugees, with nothing but begging. ”

Commander Hansen's tone was indifferent, and his expression didn't seem to change in the slightest, as if he had seen too much.

Merlin felt a pang in his heart, yes, these people are refugees, the Holy Dragon Empire is in turmoil, and it is not only the lords and nobles who are affected, but also these ordinary civilians, they are the biggest victims, and many people have even become refugees.

Wandering refugees have appeared on the streets of the Holy Dragon City, which also reflects the turmoil of the entire empire from the side, which is actually very strict.

Merlin has a strict sense of crisis, as if even the Holy Dragon City is not safe, the source of this crisis, as if it comes from all directions, is Merlin's intuition as a way to compete with the latitude world, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

"Strength, we must do our best to improve our strength. The nutrient pool is key!"

Merlin secretly made up her mind. Wait until Count Steinwin is settled. Be sure to start procuring raw materials for the preparation of nutrient pools immediately to improve your strength.

At dusk, Count Stamwin finally returned, and with the good news that some of Count Stenwin's acquaintances in the Holy Dragon City had successfully bought a deserted manor in the west of the city.

Therefore, everyone hurried to the deserted manor.

Walked for about an hour. It was only when the procession reached the manor in the west of the city, a very large but very deserted manor that had once been the manor of an earl, but then the earl's family had declined, and finally moved out of the manor and was bought by a merchant.

Count Stanwin also spent a lot of money to buy this manor, although it was abandoned, it was in the shape of today's Holy Dragon City. It is not easy to have such a manor. It's just a little far from the city center.

"Okay, everybody goes in, it's a little deserted, but it takes some time to sort it out. ”

Earl Stanwin gave an order, and three hundred heavy guards were stationed first, and searched the manor inside and out, before they were put into the family and began to be sorted out.

It wasn't until late at night that some of the rooms were preliminarily sorted out, and although they were still relatively dilapidated, Merlin could see that everyone was relieved and looked satisfied.

The days of worrying in the past few months can finally come to an end, and now that there is a new manor, it can also be stable for a while.

Merlin was not in a hurry to rest, but found Count Steinwin alone.

"Father, I have something I want to ask my father for help. ”

Merlin said calmly.

"Oh, Leo, what's the matter?"

Count Stanwin was a little strange, Leo had never been so polite to him.

"Father, I'm going to start preparing the nutrient pool, and many of the raw materials for the nutrient pool are very precious, so I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money. ”

Merlin's main purpose is to ask Count Steinwin for some gold coins, and with Merlin's methods, he may be able to get some gold coins slowly, but this is not something that can be done in a short time.

With a wealthy earl lord like Count Stamwin, Merlin naturally wouldn't be willing to go far.

Count Stairwin smiled and said, "Your parasite's nutrient pool is indeed very expensive. In this case, I will give you a thousand gold coins first, and if it is not enough, you can continue to look for me. ”

"A thousand gold coins?

Merlin nodded, this is a gold coin, one gold coin is equivalent to a hundred silver coins, this manor, maybe it didn't cost a thousand gold coins.

As the lord of Boulder City, Count Stan Wen has indeed accumulated a lot of wealth over the years.

After putting away a thousand gold coins, Merlin also retreated, and when he returned to the room, he remembered the will of the two-headed winged wolf in the sea.

After the will of the two-headed winged wolf was suppressed by the rules of Merlin's illusory world, it has always been very regular, and in the face of Merlin's rules that can compete with the latitude world, even if the two-headed winged wolf is thousands of times stronger, it will not help.

Perhaps it was also because of instinctive fear, until now, the two-headed winged wolf's originally very ferocious will has been silent, and has not made any trouble to Merlin, and it has been calm for a while.

However, Merlin did not relax his vigilance, once there was anything wrong, he would immediately use the rules of the illusory world to suppress it, but unfortunately, now Merlin's illusory world has not been restored, otherwise the will of the two-headed winged wolf will be directly controlled, there is no need to be so troublesome, and you still need to be vigilant at all times.

"I'll go to the Holy Dragon City tomorrow to see, can I get together the raw materials for the nutrient pool?"

Merlin made up his mind.

Merlin left the manor early the next morning, with two knights of the Heavy Guard behind him, who were specially arranged by Earl Stanwin to protect Merlin.

These two people are not simple, they both have the bloodline of giant beasts, although they are the lowest level of giant beast bloodlines, but they have actually reached the second form, which can be regarded as very good, and they are the right-hand men under the command of Count Stanwin.

And Count Stanwin sent his right-hand men to protect Merlin, which shows how much importance he attaches to Merlin, and in this strange place, Count Stanwin naturally has to be very cautious.

Although Merlin felt a little inconvenient, he didn't refuse, after all, under such a chaotic situation now, the Holy Dragon City is not absolutely safe, and with the protection of these two guards who look unusual, there will be a lot less trouble.

Merlin inquired about the largest grocery stores in Holy Dragon City, and went straight to the nearest one, which didn't seem to be frequented by any people.

After seeing Merlin coming, the grocery store's eyes lit up and hurriedly welcomed Merlin in.

"I don't know what a few guests need to buy?"

Merlin didn't bother to say anything, and directly took out a list of some materials.

Of course, this is not the whole recipe of the nutrient pool, but only a part of it, and Merlin will not show the formula so lightly.

"Well, do you have everything on it?"

Merlin asked in a deep voice, the formula of this nutrient pool is very important, it is related to whether he can improve his strength in the future, if there is no formula and he can't prepare a nutrient pool, it will not play a role.

"This ......"

The owner of the shop looked up at Merlin, looking a little hesitant. (To be continued......)
