I'm afraid that since the city of Paliwa was built, it has never been so lively. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It became a paradise for adventurers and a carnival for pagans. Bold merchants have set up business here, and they can buy methyst, bluebloodstone, amethyst, antlers, and hides at Paliva at much cheaper prices, and they can sell large piles of grain and old wine, and the people here seem to care little about money.

There are no mercenaries, no territorial knights, and the goods sold don't need to pay taxes to the Sanctuary, so as long as you're not afraid of this god-cursed place, you'll have plenty of opportunities.

People are generous, not because they have a lot of wealth, but because most people are feeling the taste of having property for the first time, and because they live on the edge of a knife and feel that life is to be happy.

Under the rule of Lord Carter Larson, the whole city is in order. Although there were many robbers, thieves, and outcasts who had done all kinds of evil in the past, they unexpectedly became conformist under the constraints of the law.

The point is, as long as they follow the rules, they can easily acquire much more property than before, and they don't have to endure prison time, and the recalcitrant criminals are deported, and it becomes a paradise for the low.

The unexpected prosperity of the city of Paliva shone like the sun throughout the empire. Knowing that the prophecy was about to come true, the "renegades" raised the banner of rebellion, and although their struggles often ended in tragic ends, these heresies finally entered the ears of the upper echelons of the empire.

Bassoon-Wanda's ambitions never stop there, and at this moment, he is leading the Maipu people, hiding in the jungles of Iron Mountain, preparing to support a premeditated rebellion.

Odin also followed behind them, which Bassoon strongly demanded. Odin did not object, and the struggle between these villages and the small city-states seemed to him to be child's play.

He doesn't mind helping the "Apostates" achieve victory in these small areas, but this victory may be short-lived, because soon the mercenaries of the Sanctuary will arrive and start an endless battle.

Eventually, these small bases, which are not disturbed by the Sanctuary, will slowly expand, dotted together in a large area, all over the southern part of the empire.

But that's not his fundamental purpose. Last night, Bassoon came to him to get guidance from him.

"Mr. Diggs, our people have resolved to wage war with the Sanctuary. They brutally slaughtered our people, ruled the country roughly, and deceived the world with false gods. Now that the prophesied facts have come, I think we owe it to the race to make Judgment Day coming. "Old Bassoon showed more enthusiasm than he had ever been, and his old age was swept away.

"There is no doubt about your devotion to the faith, but the result of blind expansion will only lead to the loss of your people. Your lives may be lost, but it won't be long before the Sanctuary returns to your purified lands. Odin took out a scroll of hand-drawn maps and laid them flat on the burns.

"We are willing to sacrifice everything and are not afraid to give blood. Bassoon, thinking that Odin was testing their will, immediately replied firmly.

"I mean - it's not that you doubt your guts, but that needless sacrifices will make your situation even harder. ”

Odin pointed to the map: "What do you think is the reason for Paliva's prosperity?"

Bassoon kept his mouth shut—he wasn't very good at thinking about it.

"The reason why Paliva is prosperous is because it is in a good position, surrounded by mountains to the north and enemy countries to the south, on the border of the empire, and our enemies must pay a great price if they want to fight. ”

"And the small areas you occupy are chaotic, some are even attached to the vicinity of large city-states, and there are no pass fortresses, the number of "renegades" is scarce, and they cannot continue to cast spells, as long as mercenaries and territorial knights come, these flesh-and-blood won territory will have to be handed over. ”

Odin patted Bassoon on the shoulder, then drew a thin line on the map.

"Sir, do you mean - we must occupy some important strategic points in a planned way?" Bassoon, still unaware of the map, understood Odin's words.

"Yes. We could have set our goals a little more ambitious - you see, after entering Iron Mountain, there is Blue Road Castle, followed by Moon Mountain City, Red Creek City, and then White River City. Odin looked at Bassoon.

Although Bassoon did not understand, he saw the end of the horizontal line, and his heart was faintly uneasy.

"Entering White River City is equivalent to entering the territory of Silver Eagle. We can have the Silver Eagle in our pocket. Odin said this with his usual smile on his face, and his plan was as horrifying as ever.

Bassoon thought he had misheard: "Silver...... Do you mean Silver Eagle City, the territory of the Parton family, the former Prime Minister and the Queen Mother?"

Odin pointed to the map, which clearly marked the location of Silver Eagle City: "Yes, we can completely occupy Silver Eagle. ”

"But...... We struggle to occupy even small places...... Not to mention Silver Eagle, an ancient city-state with a powerful military. Bassoon began to stutter as he spoke, and while he fully believed in Odin's plans, no matter how much he tried to use his imagination, he couldn't figure out how exactly they would win a big city.

Odin knocked on the table and continued to speak gently: "King Liepon set fire to himself, and the Queen Mother Lelia has committed suicide. Elio Parton disappeared after his defeat. There was only one old man left in Silver Eagle City who couldn't breathe. ”

At this, Bassoon Wanda's eyes lit up, but then dimmed: "However, Silver Eagle still has a large army. ”

Odin's tone was more gentle: "Have you forgotten that their elite has been consumed in Paliva? ”

His father, in turn, turned a blind eye to his hubris, believing that the Parton family had been in power since their grandson became king. ”

Ba Song's frowning brow finally relaxed, and his expression became fanatical: "Therefore, the entire Silver Eagle City is already an empty shell. ”

"Yes, like Paliva, the ancestors of the Silver Eagle were very careful in choosing their location, surrounded by rivers in the west and rolling hills in the east. Although it is not as tall as the peak of Iron Mountain, it will not allow the armies of other territories to drive straight in. ”

Odin stopped talking and looked at Bassoon with obsidian eyes, and Bassoon's heart seemed to be on fire.

The Warlock knew that he had succeeded in convincing the elder of the Maipu clan. However, in addition to helping the "God Traitor" gain a foothold and expand its power, the occupation of Silver Eagle has a more important purpose. (To be continued.) )
