Chapter 24: Cornell Visits
"Galen, you've also reached level six, right?" asked Eren after the others left.
Galen nodded: "Yesterday I was suddenly upgraded, and I asked Lux to find out that it was because Lord Lord that you were promoted to level 3." ”
"Then your previous cultivation was not in vain?" asked Allen.
"No," Galen replied, "It's true that the improvement gained from cultivation is wasted, but the experience points gained from killing enemies and monsters have been accumulated. ”
"In other words, even if I level up and lead you to level up, the experience points you get from killing monsters will still be kept at your current level?" Alan said happily.
"That's right," Galen said, "It's just that the experience required to upgrade to level seven is much higher than that of level six." ”
"Haha, it's good to be able to accumulate," Alan said with a smile, "Otherwise, you will risk going to the wilderness area to kill monsters to improve your strength, and my hard work will be in vain as soon as I upgrade." ”
"Galen, Lux, Yasuo, you continue to go to the wilderness area to improve your strength, but you can only go to two people at a time, leaving one person to guard the territory. Alan instructed cautiously.
This trip to Nice City has indeed knocked out the reputation of Huaxia Ling, but while the reputation brings benefits, I am afraid that it will not bring less trouble. There is no master in the territory, and it is difficult to solve emergencies.
After Galen and the others left, Alan sat alone in the courtyard and fell into deep thought.
This attack on the way back can be described as full of strangeness. As for the behind-the-scenes instructions, Alan naturally won't let go, but how to find out the behind-the-scenes instructions, Allen doesn't have any clue now.
Importantly, Alan doesn't have an intelligence department, and he doesn't know where to start if he wants to investigate.
Alan scratched his head in annoyance, he must establish the intelligence department as soon as possible, even if it is not of great use at first, at least he can help himself find out all the big forces in the Nice City area that have the strength to organize this attack, so that he can investigate them one by one.
However, now Allen does not have the right talents to form an intelligence department, so Allen is in a hurry. The construction of the intelligence service was different from the others, and it was not possible to organize a group of peasants to succeed.
At this time, the news of Allen's attack on the way back to the territory also reached the city of Nice.
There was a little lord who also came to Nice City to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony of the Third Young Master of the City Lord's Mansion on the same way back to the territory as Allen, and when Allen was attacked, he happened to witness the attack from afar.
The strongest of this little lord's subordinates was only a second-level warrior, and he didn't dare to show up to help when he saw Eren in ambush. After seeing Alan repel the group of masked men from afar, the little lord returned directly to the city of Nice and spread the news of Allen's attack.
The city lord of the city lord's mansion, Benedict and the eldest young master, Cornell, got the news as soon as possible.
"Who is it?" Benedict City Lord frowned slightly: "Two sixth-level warriors, several third- to fifth-level warriors, can send this lineup of forces, there are not many in the area of Nice City." ”
"It's really not much, but it's not a lot, it's a little difficult to investigate them one by one," Cornell said: "I suspect that those people did it, this attack is clearly someone who wants to frame our city lord's mansion, but the other party did it too obviously, and he looks like he thinks that everyone else has no brains, this style of acting is very similar to those people!"
"I suspect those people too, but Eren was attacked just after a conflict with our City Lord's Mansion and Anse El of Glenham Territory, will Eren blame us for this? Alan doesn't know about the existence of those people. ”
Lord Benedict said worriedly. Now that their plan was slowly starting to be implemented, he didn't want to provoke Alan now, even though Allen's current strength did not pose a real threat to Nice City.
"Probably not," Cornell said, "First of all, it can't be Ansel, Glenham doesn't have this strength." ”
"I've been in contact with this person at the banquet, so I shouldn't even be able to see this trick. If he really is so brainless, we don't need to be so cautious about him. ”
"What I'm concerned about now is that two sixth-level warriors plus several third- to fifth-level warriors failed to attack Allen, and Allen's strength is much stronger than what we have seen!"
And according to eyewitnesses, the two sixth-level warriors were killed one-on-one by two of Allen's men. Alan's two subordinates, one is the blonde girl who followed him to the banquet, it is said that she is a magician, but it is ridiculous that Anse El also beat the attention of this girl, and now it seems that he really does not know whether he is alive or dead. The other was never seen by Alan's side. ”
"Where did these people come from, and why did they appear around Allen? At least for now, Allen has no value worthy of the allegiance of these powerful men. ”
"It seems that I really need to go to Allen's Huaxia Collar in person to see what secrets Allen is hiding in him!"
......
Two days later, Tetsu Three and Tetsu Nine led the team back to the territory and successfully brought back a hundred quarryman slaves.
"You didn't run into any trouble on the way, did you?" asked Allen.
"No," replied Tetsusan, "we didn't meet anyone along the way, and the soldiers of Nice were very kind to us when we entered the city." ”
"That's good. Alan said, what he was most afraid of was that Tie San and the others would encounter an ambush by a senior warrior again on the road, and now it seems that the other party is not staring at him.
"By the way, are you good at intelligence work?" asked Allen towards Tetsu and Tetsu Jiu.
The two shook their heads with a wry smile, letting them go into battle to kill the enemy is naturally their strength, and if it is intelligence work, they really can't do it.
Alan waved his hand helplessly: "Okay, you guys go down." You don't have to worry about the day-to-day defense of the territory, you train hard and improve your strength as soon as possible. ”
The Demacian heavy infantry is the most elite class of troops in the territory today, and it is naturally impossible for Alan to let them give up the improvement of their strength because of such trivial things as daily defense.
Alan called the village chief of Jill and asked him to arrange the accommodation of the hundred quarrymen.
Alan and the village chief Jill had already chosen the location of the quarry, and they had chosen several places, so that when the quarrymen were settled, they could start working immediately. The quarried stone is now useless and can be stored in preparation for the construction of the lord's palace.
To Allen's surprise, these 100 quarrymen were also systematically counted in the population of the territory, and now the population of the territory has exceeded 800, which is not far from the task requirement of 1,000 people.
......
The time entered November, and Allen conducted a November lottery on the first day, but unfortunately Allen's luck was not good this time, and what he drew turned out to be a wooden box, a small box of wood.
Now the most important thing in Huaxia Collar is probably wood, and Alan is entangled in his heart, even if you give me a box of food!
On this day, Alan was cultivating his fighting spirit in the small courtyard, and after returning from Nice City, Allen's cultivation could be described as extremely hard.
The attack on the way made Alan realize that although he had the help of the most lord system, if his own strength was too poor, accidents could happen at any time. If it weren't for the other party's unintentional killing of himself last time, I am afraid that he would have died by now.
If you die, no matter how strong the territory is, no matter how much help the lord system gives you, what is the use?
What's more, Alan doesn't like the feeling that when he encounters danger, he can only watch his subordinates sacrifice to protect himself, but he can't help himself like a burden.
Although, the talent of a lord is mainly reflected in the construction of the territory.
"My lord, the chief of the village of Gil asks to see you. "Outside the courtyard gate, a guard came in to report.
As the territory grew, Eren became more and more of a lord. For example, in the past, the village chief of Jill and the others pushed the door in directly when they saw him, but now they have to let the guards outside the door report first.
This is not Allen's pretense and shelf, but the inevitable result of the gradual development and growth of the territory.
This was initiated by the village chief of Gil and Alex and others.
According to the words of the village chief of Gil, no matter how close the lord is to himself and others, and how much he trusts himself and others, since he is a lord, he must be like a lord.
No rules, no circle!
If the construction of the Lord's Mansion is completed, or if the Huaxia Domain becomes one of the largest territories in the Nice City area, will he and the others directly break into the Lord's room in the Lord's Mansion every time they want to see the Lord? This is obviously impossible! Alan doesn't mind saying it first, let the others think of it? How can the authority of the Allen Lord be maintained?
Since you have to make changes sooner or later, it is better to change now, at least let everyone have an adaptation process.
Having said this, Alan naturally had no way to refuse.
"Ask the village chief Jill to come in!" said Allen.
The village chief of Jill has been busy persuading the nearby villages to migrate to Huaxia Ling during this time, and now he has come to find him, I am afraid there is good news!
"Your Excellency. ”
When the village chief Jill came in, he saluted Allen first, and it was difficult to hide the joy on his face.
"Chief, Gil, seems to have good news?" Alan asked with a smile.
"That's right," the village chief Gil smiled, "The two villages I contacted these days have agreed to move over, and they have made an appointment to officially start the migration tomorrow." ”
"It is estimated that the migration will be completed in about three days!"
Several villages very close to Huaxia Ling have already migrated to Huaxia Ling, and this time the two villages are far away from Huaxia Ling, so it is naturally impossible to complete the migration work in only one day as before.
"After these two villages move over, the population of the territory will definitely exceed 1,000!" added the village chief Gil.
"Okay, that's good!" Alan said happily, the population exceeded 1000, the main quest could be completed, and the city lord's mansion could be built.
"Let all the two squads of Demacia heavy infantry be dispatched, and be sure to protect the migrating villagers so that the migration work can be completed smoothly!" Allen said.
In the past, large-scale migrations between villages often saw thieves take advantage of the opportunity to plunder their property. The nearby thieves were afraid of the strength of Huaxia Ling, and although they did not attack the villages that migrated to Huaxia Ling, Allen still had to take precautions.
If some thieves take the opportunity to cause trouble and kill dozens of villagers who have migrated over, then even if Alan clears all the thieves afterwards, it will be useless.
The village chief of Jill has already organized several migrations, so he naturally doesn't need to explain too much about the specific affairs, so he left after reporting to Allen.
The village chief of Jill had just left when another guard ran in to report it.
The eldest young master of the Nice City Lord's Mansion Connell came to visit, and now he is outside the courtyard.
