Baron's Castle

Antonio looked at the mess quite helplessly, and his original plan to conquer the whole island fell into disarray, and he felt an inexplicable unwillingness in his heart.

"Do you want to drink? Lord Viscount!"

The magician Nunn handed over a glass of red wine with a smile on his face, red wine was a rarity on this poor and remote island, and it was still a treasure of Baron Bruni.

"Well, speaking of which, I have never tasted red wine in my life, and the last time I was my successor lord, I didn't know what it was like, and I became drunk because I drank it for the first time in my life. It's a pity, it looks like we're going to have to stay here for a while."

Baron Antonio took the wine glass handed by the magician and showed an unwilling look, originally according to the plan, he would canonize Francis, the leader of the dragon slayer mercenary group, as his vassal monarch, and then let him stay here to manage the territory, so that he could return to the court with his army.

It's just that he didn't think that William rejected his holy seal, and even Francis's attitude began to waver, but he still had no way to do anything, even if he wanted to turn his face, his two hundred militia were no match for the other party's fifty mercenaries.

The territory needs to be governed, and the original territory is not adjacent to the newly conquered territory now, because if you don't canonize the vassal monarch, there will be a situation where you can't manage it, so he can only stay and govern it himself.

Of course, monarchs are not all scarce, and there is a knight order composed of monarchs as the core in the Grand Duke of the Great Gongfang Alliance, which is the first knight order in this world, and they do not directly manage the territory, but only regard them as knights who lead soldiers to fight, which is a serious waste of talents like monarchs.

"Francis will definitely regret it, William is even if he defects to the Grand Duke, the Grand Duke will only let them enter the Knights."

The magician Nunn said, comforting the monarch he served.

Although the monarch of the Central Continent is hereditary and aristocratic, if he has enough ability, he is not stingy with granting the Holy Seal to the great nobles, which can not only strengthen their bodies like the Evil Pattern, but also give protection to their companions on the battlefield, which will work wonders.

For some high-ranking monarchs, the ability of the Holy Seal to calm the chaos is secondary, and the more high-ranking monarchs, such as the high-ranking monarchs of the Grand Duke, Marquis, and Earl, the territory they govern is already a country, and the number of mages who can contract is no longer one, but a whole group of mages.

For civilians, the most valuable profession in this world is the Evil Tattoo Envoy, the Monarch, and the Magician, and for those with a little knowledge, they think that the most precious profession is the Monarch, followed by the Magician, and as for the Evil Tattoo Envoy, it is simply a consumable.

However, for high-ranking monarchs of the earl rank and above, whether it is a monarch or a magician, they are all consumables like the evil tattoo envoy, why the difference, even if it is a little noble, it is also a noble consumable.

The former leader of the Great Workshop Alliance, Iron-Blooded Earl Jurgen, asked the magician to bear the firepower of the troops to go to the front line to fight in person, and at the same time formed a knight order with the monarch as the core, creating an elite army with the Holy Seal as the core, which was famous and created the glory of the Great Workshop Alliance.

Behind this military glory are countless magicians and monarchs who have no talent and luck have died on the battlefield one after another, and even the Holy Seal cannot be inherited to their descendants.

Therefore, even if William and Francis defected to the Grand Duke, even if they were reused, I am afraid that they would not be as local lords, but as knights and become members of the Knights, reduced to military commanders, and if they could not show their abilities, they would quickly die on the battlefield.

This world is equally fair to everyone, if he is not strong enough, too weak, he will also be defeated by other monarchs and take away the Holy Seal, and because he is a vassal of the United Grand Duke, he cannot declare surrender to others at all.

But after all, it is much better than the knights of the Knights, and there is no shortage of barons, viscounts and other monarchs in the Knights of the Grand Duke.

"Luckily, I have a younger sister, and although her Sacred Seal is still at the rank of a knight's squire, she is a better monarch than me, and she is so outstanding that she will definitely be able to

Revive our family."

Antonio suddenly thought of something, and a smile appeared on his face, he now had to sit in the newly conquered territory, and his sister could help him guard the rear.

Because this island is not unified, there is no one among the monarchs who has reached such a high level of the earl rank as a monarch to become the common alliance of all the monarchs on this island, everyone is independent and equal, even if he is a knight, if the territory does not border each other, he will not be afraid in the face of a viscount, on the contrary, he can actively form an alliance to counter,

Therefore, when Baron Bruni found out that Baron Antonio was sending troops against him, he would think that Antonio was a madman.

Long-distance and close attack is the common sense that monarchs have been educated, and a place that is too far away from their ruling area will only become an enclave, and if the army cannot be quickly supported, then even if it is taken, it will be taken away by other similar monarchs.

Baron Antonio and Baron Bruni do not border each other's territories, not to mention that they are still far away from each other, and they cannot be defended at all, and there is no corresponding person to govern.

It's just that who would have thought that Antonio's deceased father also left him a younger sister.

Antonio granted his sister the seal of knightly squire, allowing him to secure the rear with peace of mind, and his sister was quite dependent on him, and was a close friend who would never betray him.

The brother and sister fight the world together, which is better than countless people.

"Forget it, anyway, there are a lot of mercenary groups on this island, without the dragon slaying mercenary group from other places, and there are teams like the Bobcat mercenary team, as long as you can grit your teeth and come up with money......

Although Antonio was a little disappointed that he had lost the dragon slayer mercenary group represented by Francis and William, he quickly adjusted his mentality.

The reason why there are many mercenary squads is not only because the islands are not unified and because of the monarch melee, but also because of the strong concentration of chaos, from time to time there are monsters like Chimera running out of the demon cave to attack the territories of various monarchs, and handing over the crusade task to the mercenary squads is also the reason why the mercenary market on this island is extremely active.

Because the demand is really here, as long as the island is not unified, as long as the bronze dragon has not been defeated, the chaos on this island will continue, and the mercenaries will have business to come to the door.

"It's great that you can think that." Nunn watched his monarch adjust his mentality, and also put his mind at ease, although his monarch's talent is limited and he is just a mediocre person, but if he can adjust his mentality and make wise decisions, he already has the potential of a wise monarch.

"Why is it so noisy outside!!" Suddenly Nunn sensed a noise outside, and he turned his gaze to Antonio, and the two of them walked out of the castle's banquet hall to the atrium, where there was already a knight in armor with blood flowing from his forehead.

"Sean, why did you come to us when you didn't stay in the castle and guard the castle?" Antonio saw the man in the armor, a man dressed as a knight, but he was not a knight, because he had not received the seal, but only a soldier in the family.

Although he led the expedition, he still arranged for his sister to stay behind when he left, although there were only twenty or thirty soldiers, but if they guarded the castle, they could also hold it for a while, buying time for their return.

Now what is going on, why did he run back from his old house in a panic, could it be that another monarch attacked his home during his expedition.

"Lord Baron, the dragon, the dragon has appeared, it has descended on our castle and robbed our princess, Lord Baron, we are no match for it at all."

Sean burst into tears, saying that after the baron left, just before the incident, the dragon snatched the princess from the castle, relying only on their twenty soldiers and the princess, who was a knight's squire, was no match for the dragon at all.

Antonio felt incredulous, and then thought of the bronze dragon entrenched in the middle of the island, and actually fainted and fell to the ground, on the eve of fainting, there was only this sentence in his mind, "It's over, it's over, it's all over."

"Baron, Baron, are you alright?" Nunn

Holding the baron, he panicked for a while, the princess had been snatched away by the evil dragon, and if something happened to the baron, the baron's family would be completely finished.
