Chapter 65: "Two or Three Things About My Demon King's Secretary Becoming a Human Lord"
After Tucker disappeared, the investigation was inconclusive.
In time, the dark clouds that hung over Bastora dissipated.
White regained consciousness, and in line with the principle of 'it's too big to panic, it's useless to panic, I'd better continue to do what I can', he began his usurpation of the throne again.
"Why, why are the Holy Knights stationed in our country? Before, there was never a paladin stationed on the territory of our country? Our country has never applied to the Holy Church for the support of a paladin, huh? ”
Facing Joseph and the others introduced by White, King Ba showed a frightened expression.
"Your Majesty, this is the arrangement of the Holy King, please don't be surprised. We were sent to Bastora to assist with security. This time I came to participate in the tournament by the way, this is the right thing. And in view of the activity of the Demon King of the World, in order to protect the interests of all mankind, it is even more necessary for us to stay in Bastora. ”
Anything to deal with the Demon King of the World and be stationed in Bastora is an excuse.
Obviously, before the Demon King of the World Destroyer appeared, he had already come to Bastora.
And they couldn't effectively stop the Demon King of the World, so it didn't work at all.
It can be seen that everything has been planned for a long time, and it is a conspiracy.
Saying this, Joseph added dryly.
"For our stay....... His Majesty has no right to interfere. ”
This is a straightforward expression, not taking King Ba seriously.
With that, Joseph led the paladins to turn and leave.
Before leaving, he did not forget to salute White.
"All paladins, at the behest of Lord White. The success of the next human martial arts tournament is all thanks to Lord White's strategy. Lord Saint King spoke highly of Lord White. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Holy King, for your approval. It is a great honor to be recognized by His Majesty the Holy King, and I will definitely continue to work hard to achieve greater glory and build Bastora into the ideal human nation. ”
The follower Joseph, White also left the office of King Ba.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to turn around and show a mocking expression to King Ba.
When everyone left, King Ba covered his face with his hands.
"Unexpectedly, even the Holy Sect is behind it........ How else to play. ”
Everything looks back to the way it was.
The only difference is .......
In the secret base of the Demon King Sect, a lively celebration is taking place.
"Congratulations to the Secretary-General on becoming a lord. Now, we are one step closer to our great goal. ”
"Get Bastora down. Make this country the possession of the Demon King. ”
"Hey. As I told you, I didn't think about taking Bastora. It's a troublesome thing to think about. ”
At a time when a few families are happy and a few are sad, only Li Muran has gained fame and fortune.
The 20 gold coins of the tournament and the rewards promised by Wright were all cashed in.
Li Muran, who is the secretary of the Demon King, has become a lord of the human country.
"This is definitely the funniest joke after Bella said she was going to be the Great Demon King."
"I'm not funny when I'm a big demon or something. Sooner or later, I'll show you. ”
.......
Not to mention anything else, as a hero who won glory for Bastora, Li Muran received the lord's reward.
In fact, the reward that Li Muran asked White for was to release the dwarven craftsman.
But White and Li Muran also cared about each other's forging skills, so they rejected Li Muran.
In the end, the reward given to Li Muran became a territory.
Suddenly going from an adventurer to a lord, this is definitely a good thing for promotion.
Li Muran can be regarded as having a way to get in touch with the high-level.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this kind of good thing is enviable.
But Li Muran felt a little troublesome.
Isn't getting your own territory like the sudden addition of the Demon King Sect means that you have to do more things?
No matter how you think about it, you're in trouble.
But if you get the territory, if you don't use it, it feels like a waste.
The unique character of the Celestial Dynasty people who don't like waste began to attack again, making Li Muran feel uncomfortable.
Although it is said to be a reward for heroes, it is not as good as thought.
White is still cautious.
Even if Li Muran promised to join his camp, as a newcomer who had not long appeared in his field of vision, White could not fully trust Li Muran.
Therefore, the territory given is relatively small and relatively remote.
On the surface, it seems to be a very awesome reward, but in fact, it is very perfunctory and completely unreal.
White asked Li Muran to choose between several poor options, and Li Muran finally chose a territory called 'Yoktor', which was close to the Death Song Forest.
Listen to Howard, they say, Jorvan is very poor in this place.
It's not uncommon for people to not get enough to eat.
Because of its proximity to the Dead Song Forest, this place has been plagued by monsters and thieves all year round, and the security is not very good.
There is no food, and there is harassment, not to mention infrastructure.
The dire situation of people's lives immediately has a sense of picture.
Or is it faster to directly apply the weak race before the Demon King's Army did not stay in the Dead Song Forest?
It can be said that Yoktora is one of the many territories in Bastora, and it is also the territory that counts relatively quickly from behind.
And because the lord of the covenant has no oil and water to fish, and even needs to pay for it, no one wants to be the lord of this place.
It's for nothing, the kind that no one wants.
It seems that the previous lords all squeezed a wave, and ran away after making money.
Even the current reigning lord doesn't do anything. In addition to transferring assets, he never cared about the lives of the people and the construction of the territory, and never did anything meaningful to the territory.
However, this is in line with Bastora's overall style.
After all, John had done this before, so Li Muran was not surprised.
The confrontation between the lord and the lord aggravated the people's grievances, and the people's grievances were full of unspeakable suffering.
The conditions were originally poor, and the lords and lords were still opposed.
The social climate is also so bad that it makes people feel disgusting.
With all these circumstances, Li Muran finally understood the potential reasons for the rapid development of the Demon King Sect.
It is the same reason as the rapid development of red thought during the Republic of China period.
Inexplicably, there is a sense of 'intimacy'.
Li Muran was definitely the first person to take the initiative to choose this place.
After listening to Howard's explanation, Li Muran also figured out why White was so happy after hearing that Li Muran had chosen a contract.
It turned out that he cashed out the reward to Li Muran again, and sent out the garbage territory again.
It's a good thing to kill two birds with one stone, and it's no wonder he smiles like a kid in his 60s.
This old fox.
However, Li Muran didn't feel that the twist was so bad.
It is better to say that it is the ideal place that most meets Li Muran's requirements.
Li Muran is the secretary of the Demon King.
The identity of the members of the Demon King Army is the main job, and the lords and human heroes are all side hustles, and they are disguises that lurk inside the enemy.
Demon King City is set in the Forest of Death Song.
Originally, Jokwan suffered because of his proximity to the Dead Song Forest.
But now its proximity to the Dead Song Forest has become a plus.
After Li Muran became the lord, the covenant became Li Muran's belongings, that is, the belongings of the Demon King Army.
Li Muran can act freely and freely within the covenant.
Access to the Forest of Dead Songs is also more convenient.
In the words of our red old-timers, it is possible to 'connect the base areas into a piece'.
In terms of strategic location, Yoktor has more advantages over other territories for the Demon King's Army.
The geographical location alone is very much in line with the needs of Li Muran (Demon King Army).
As for food and infrastructure, in Li Muran's view, it is not a problem.
The appointment was chosen not only because of the location, but also for other reasons.
Previously, under the activities of the Demon King Sect, Li Muran's tentacles came into contact with the old dwarf controlled by White.
In a short exchange with the other party, Li Muran got some very meaningful information.
"Hey, there's got to be a mineral deposit in that place. They didn't find out, but we dwarves couldn't be wrong. That's a treasure trove. ”
It seems that because of the harsh environment, this land is treated as garbage.
Thanks to people's contempt, the mineral deposits can be perfectly hidden.
Li Muran didn't know about the mineral deposits.
But if you can get metal ore, this is definitely a good thing for the development of the Demon King Army.
Anyway, the territory is for nothing, and Li Muran is willing to believe in the old dwarf, there is no reason not to try it.
Of course, these contents have not been told to the people of the Demon King Sect, and only Bella knows for the time being.
Li Muran will wait until the time is ripe before making an official announcement.
After receiving the reward, Li Muran also went to the Adventurers' Association and the Merchants' Association to say hello.
After all, he is now a celebrity, and the presidents not only met Li Muran in person, but also warmly congratulated Li Muran on his promotion.
The presidents generously expressed that they would strongly support Li Muran in the future.
"In terms of goods, what does Lord Li Muran need, just say. We'll do our best to help find it. ”
"If you need manpower, come to me. The Adventurers' Guild is proud of you. For the sake of heroes, we should do everything as we should. You're welcome, we're family. ”
Just like entertaining VIPs, the attitude is more sincere and warm than before.
This is the celebrity effect. Not bad, not bad.
After Gang Fist knew that Li Muran had become a lord, he was even more excited.
It's even more exciting than being an official.
"Big brother is definitely the first person to go from adventurer to lord and be promoted so quickly."
"I knew that my eldest brother would definitely get ahead. It's just that I didn't expect it to be so fast, and I still entered the official career. ”
"Brother, we will chase after it all our lives. Please let us do something for my brother. ”
Well said, well said. If there is something to do in the future, I will give priority to hiring them to do chores.
The attitude of other adventurers towards Li Muran also changed 180 degrees.
Not only did he not dare to underestimate Li Muran anymore, but he also took the initiative to come over and curry favor with Li Muran.
The salutations have become honorifics.
What was originally a tiger yelling at each other has become a docile kitten.
It can be seen that everyone watched the previous battles with their own eyes.
Watch out for my 'light-speed slash'!
After becoming a lord, Li Muran, who was officially recognized, had more opportunities to enter and leave the palace.
Although there is no direct contact with King Ba.
But for others, it's a lot more convenient.
For example...... King Ba's personal bodyguard, General Karl......
Li Muran has to seriously consider using this convenient identity to do something.
Plus, the rewards don't come in your hands so quickly.
In addition to the absolute oath of allegiance to White, there is a need for a handover in the middle, the need to transfer the current lord, and various hard configurations.
Li Muran has to wait for about a month.
Taking advantage of this time, Li Muran decided to go back to the Demon King City to have a look.
After all, that is the center of gravity of Li Muran and Bella, and Tucker also appeared.
Li Muran couldn't leave Tucker alone. This is not in line with hospitality.
"By the way, please report to Lord Tucker (show off) about the latest situation. After all, in terms of statement, we are from the Tucker faction, and it is Master Tucker who follows it. ”
Like reporting to the boss, it is also the job of the members of the faction.
...............
When I returned to the city, I told White that I wanted to tell my family about the results.
So I took a leave of absence smoothly.
When he went home this time, Li Muran not only brought back Howard, but also brought several cadres of the Demon King Sect who had been clamoring to see the Demon King City, as well as several people who were specially found from the insiders of the Demon King Sect, who were highly loyal to Bella, had a firm will, could read and write, and were ready to cultivate a family.
After returning to the Demon King City, Li Muran was ready to give Howard a new task.
Let him be in charge of the cultural curriculum of the Demon King Army.
While writing, he is responsible for educating the lingua franca of the Demon King Army, teaching everyone some basic culture, and training these future homes.
If so many people write together, they can form a group of gunners.
Even if someone writes badly, they can only get a full attendance award every month, which is also a good income for Li Muran.
When I think about the increase in my RMB's income, my heart is happy.
With such a bright future, it seems that it is not bad to develop the demon king power on the human side.
The Demon King Sect, who suddenly didn't realize it, was in trouble.
In other words, this is the capitalist.
unknowingly betrayed his faith and became the most hated capitalist in Li Muran's previous life.
The dragon slaying boy eventually became an evil dragon, and Li Muran also lived the most annoying appearance.
Then treat these families well.
Food, shelter, wages, and help them solve their marriage problems.
I guess there is no betrayal of the faith.
Considering that Yoktor would soon become his own territory, he didn't choose to take a long detour this time, but took the road directly from Yoktor to the Dead Song Forest.
All the way, there is a large group of people of different colors.
Attracted a lot of attention.
Of course, even if the people were curious, they didn't dare to say anything.
Commoners don't dare to make irresponsible remarks about the noble lord.
After changing the path, a lot of time was saved.
It only took more than 1 week to return to Demon King City.
Sure enough, Tucker, dressed in a security uniform, was already waiting there.
"Brother Li Muran, little Bella, you are too slow. It's so boring, I'm impatient. ”
Lying on the soft bed specially made for him, with Christian on his head, playing a game with black beans, and eating cucumber fried chicken rice and fruit sent by the Demon King Army, the sloppy uncle said truthfully.
The wine and snacks that Li Muran had hidden privately were also turned out.
"Where do you see boredom. Clearly enjoying life. You stinky Tucker-sama, how can you enjoy it by yourself. I, the host, haven't come back yet, don't you have the consciousness of a guest? I've been running all the way, not to mention how hard it is, I just want to come back early, but you're so comfortable. I still started to enjoy it without my support. It's so angry. ”
Tucker is inexplicably angry.
As for Bella, she puffed out her cheeks and complained unhappily.
"I am the master of the Demon King City. Li Muran, you're just a secretary. ”
was ignored by Li Muran as always.
