Knock knock

The sound of rapid running and intermittent roaring rang out from the jungle.

Leiter's expression moved, he stopped the movement in his hand, and after perceiving it carefully, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It turned out that Bai Ge was carrying Ruilai and was rushing towards him.

At this time, a dry branch above his head may have endured the cold winter and failed to survive the spring. The small branch the thickness of the index finger had a crack in the middle.

The little fire grid was standing on it, shaking its little head and looking around, unaware of the abnormality of the branch on which it was stepping.

A few seconds later, with a roar, Bai Ge slammed off a small clump of thorn trees that stood in its way, leaped high, and rushed in front of Ret.

The strong inertia made it brake the car, and its limbs dragged long marks on the ground.

The fierce momentum suddenly startled the fire grid, and trembled on the branches in panic.

Suddenly.

Click.

The dry branches were overwhelmed and broke open in the cracks in the middle.

Losing the fire grid of the support point, he screamed in panic and began to fall vertically, instinctively flapping his wings halfway, but he was only born for three days, and he did not even grow his hair, and he has not yet mastered the ability to fly.

Desperately flapping his wings, at most he only slowed down the speed of the landing.

Seeing that he was about to fall to the ground, he was suddenly lifted up by a gust of wind elemental and slowly floated to the palm of Leiter's hand.

Twitter?

Ji

Huo Ge was dazed at first, his voice gradually calmed down, his feet stepped on Leiter's palm, blinked his small eyes, and looked at Leiter.

Rett smiled and stretched out his hand to caress it, and Huo Ge couldn't help but not repulse, but narrowed his eyes comfortably.

After Rett took his hand away, Huo Ge also bent down and arched his head affectionately at Rayter's wrist.

In three days, the fire grid developed quite quickly, and it had grown from the size of the palm of the hand to the size of the entire palm. The body is covered with sparse red feathers, but it cannot be completely covered, and the bare flesh can still be seen.

"Huh? Father, in the days since I left, your Firefeather Eagle has hatched!

I thought it would hatch next spring, and I even came up with a name for him. Raylai jumped down from Bai Ge, and with a brightness in his eyes, he walked over to Rayter.

Leiter gently touched the little head of the fire grid with one hand, smiled, and asked:

"What's the name you have in mind?"

"Oinseg." Ruilai looked up and said, "The god of spring in a folk tale likes to send an eagle to soar in the sky when spring comes, making a strange chirp to announce the arrival of spring.

The call of this eagle is somewhat similar to that of 'Oin', which was born on a mountain called Seg in the story.

When I was out this time, I just thought of this story and thought it was very appropriate. ”

"Well, that's a good idea." Leiter touched his chin, and then shook his head regretfully: "It would be good if you came a few days earlier, and the name will be handed over to you." Now... The name has been decided, it's called Huog. ”

"Uh...... Fire grid? What a simple and nice name. Ruilai shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

roar

roar

Bai Ge followed in Ruilai's footsteps, and then circled directly in front of Leiter, and suddenly stood upright on his two hind legs. He looked at the fire grid in Leiter's hand with a tiger's head, and even took half a step forward with two hind legs, and looked at the 'little thing' in Leiter's hand with big eyes curiously.

Twitter

The Firefeather Eagle was startled, and suddenly stood up, a pair of wings fluttering.

But after fluttering for a long time, he stopped in place and did not move.

"Bai Ge, you have scared your brother!" Ruilai slapped Bai Ge's head and frowned and reprimanded.

Roar, roar

Bai Ge understood what was meant, and leaped to the side, putting his limbs on the ground, and circled around Reiter.

Leitt held the red grid, put it on his shoulder, looked at Ruilai, and said with a smile: "Let's talk about the situation of the merchant this time." ”

"Hmm!" Ruilai nodded and said, "According to my father's plan, this time I will still focus on buying ores.

Last time, I went to the Toronto family.

This time I went to the town of Red Valley, the territory of the Fabre family.

In the end, for two thousand one hundred and thirty-six gold coins, they acquired all the inventory they had accumulated in the family - nearly half a ton of quantity. ”

"Oh? Have you finished buying the Fabre family's ore? Leiter frowned suddenly, thought for a moment and asked, "What about the Toronto family?" ”

"The Toronto family didn't, it only bought a hundred kilograms last time.

According to Bonev, there is still a backlog of more than 600 kilograms of photocrystalline ore in their warehouses. Ruilai replied fluently: "But the price of photocrystalline ore is already half higher than that of blue stone ore, and with the current financial resources of our territory, we can't eat it at all." ”

Hearing this, Leiter was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "I went to Twilight City this time, and in the Adventurer's Cave, I won another grand prize, including a seventh-order wind magic crystal.

In addition, after selling the loot hunted by the Darkstriped Eagle, after deducting the Aurora Elixir and the Sand Wolf Roar Magic Book I bought, there is still a surplus of more than 1,700 gold coins!

You take these gold coins and go buy the Toronto family's photocrystalline mine! ”

"What? Father, you drew another seventh-order magic crystal? Rylai's eyes widened, and her voice abruptly raised. But after taking a deep breath, he smiled bitterly and said, "Well, although this has replenished a large amount of gold coins for the finances of our territory, it is still unrealistic to want to buy all the inventory that the Toronto family has backlogged.

If it is still at the last price, it can only be purchased at most, about 160 kilograms of photocrystalline ore. ”

"Only one hundred and sixty kilograms?" Leiter muttered to himself, shook his head, and said, "It's not enough, we must buy all the optical crystal mines of the Toronto family!" ”

"Not enough gold." Rylai pursed his lips.

"Then borrow it, or postpone the payment, set the contract first, and postpone it for half a year at one percent interest!" Leiter squinted his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice.

In retrospect, there were only more than three months left before the news came from the front line that the fighting was intensifying and there was a huge ore gap.

In order to make a good profit in the end, during this period, he had to buy as much ore as possible in Bryan's territory.

Ruilai was silent for a moment, and although he was convinced of his father's decision, he couldn't help but suppress his voice and asked, "Are you sure... Father? ”

"Well, just do as I say, and I'll bear all the consequences!" Leiter said in a resolute voice and with confidence!

He is the head of the family and must have full confidence in any decision he makes!

Otherwise, even the decision-makers are skeptical, and how can the people below let go of their hands and feet to do it!

"Good!" Ruilai took a deep breath, his eyes revealing a touch of determination: "I understand, Father, I will leave for Cedar Town as soon as possible!" ”

"Well, I'll persuade Mycroft to come with you, and send Shireen to escort you by the way." Leiter thought about it, just in case, and decided to send some additional people to protect Ruilai.

"Mycrof?" Ruilai was slightly puzzled, and after a while, without waiting for Leiter to explain, he suddenly said, "Oh, I remembered." When you were younger, you mentioned to us that Mycroft was the best friend of your life!

Has he joined our territory? ”

"Not really, but the rest of the day will live with us."

"I understand...... Relai nodded thoughtfully, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Father, you just mentioned the Adventurer's Cave, which reminds me of a piece of news I heard on this outing. ”

Leiter's heart moved, and he said quietly: "Let's hear it." ”

"The third daughter of the earl, Jolia, actually discovered the traitor planted by the Kim family under her own hands." Ruilai couldn't help but smack his tongue and said, "I even heard that Count Nile heard about this and has gone to the Kim family, ready to ask for an explanation!"

In this way, the traitor has obtained some secret information from the family of Count Nile? ”

"Well, that's a possibility." Leiter pretended to be surprised, and followed the topic and said: "With this incident, combined with the appearance of Zolan, we should be warned - we must ensure the loyalty of the insiders, and no one will be allowed to plant spies." ”

Ruilai smiled and said, "Don't worry, Father." Our castle is not bloated. There were only so many servants, all of them were me and Steward Svetta, carefully selected from the town, and knew their information well, and these people had never been out of Eagle Town in their lives. ”

"Hmm." Reitt nodded, and still added, "Born in sorrow, die in peace."

We should not try to maintain the status quo forever in the future because of the stability of the past. ”

Ruilai savored this sentence for a long time, his expression was solemn, and he responded: "Understood." ”

......

Two days later.

Instead of going to the Thorn Forest to practice the sand wolf roar today, Rett consolidated the two magics of the Earth Cone Technique and the Quicksand Technique in the training ground.

In the last few days of winter, the cold winter no longer roars, only the bitter cold wind, as if unwilling to say goodbye to this world.

Sveta walked from outside the training ground, his hat in one hand and a happy look on his face.

Behind him, there were two restrained young men.

One has short brown hair, the other has brown curls, and looks similar in height and age.

Reiter noticed the coming, but pretended not to pay attention, and unleashed a cone. With a wave of his hand, it was like a yellow meteor shuttling, and with a whoosh, it hit a boulder 100 meters in front of it, and a huge sound broke out in an instant.

The two new young people flashed a shock in their eyes, such a powerful destructive power, they were afraid in their hearts, and their eyes at Leiter also became respectful.

"The magic of the lord is amazing!" Sveta slowed down when he was ten meters closer to Reiter, and after a word of praise, he quietly waited for the master's reply.

Rett turned around slowly and said casually, "Sveta, who are the two people behind you?" ”

"They claim to have been adventurers who have been forced to wander because their village has been persecuted by evil alchemists.

After hearing about your heroic deeds, I am grateful and yearn for you! Sveta was beaming, and she was proud of her master's fame.

Leiter raised his eyebrows and asked, "What are your names?" ”

"My lord, my name is Shakas Meade." Said the young man with short brown hair.

"My name is Jonatan Mays." The young man who left the self-drawn scroll also reported his name immediately.

"You want to join my territory?"

"Yes, I will follow you and resist all the filth that desires to stain you!" Shakas touched his chest with one hand, his expression respectful.

"I would like to turn into the sword of the lord and cut through the thorns for you!" Jonatan looked resolute!

"Good!" A smile appeared on Reiter's face. The fold relieved Shakas and Jonatan's hearts, and their worried hearts settled down.

Immediately afterwards, LTECH said in a planned manner: "I believe in your determination and in your strength.

When you come, you must be able to see that there is a serious gap in the number of patrols in my town, so you need to fill in and become a solid defense force in the town. ”

"Please wrap it up with us!" Jonatan and Shakas said in unison.

"Contribute to the Eagles, and the Eagles will be with you!" Reiter said with a serious expression, then looked at Sveta and said softly, "Please lead the two of you to the deputy fort and arrange the room!" ”

"Understood!" Sveta bowed in response, then turned to look at the two of them, "Two knights, please come with me." ”

Shakas and Jonatan looked overjoyed and hurried to follow.

Looking at the backs of the three of them, gradually leaving the training ground, Leiter's eyes showed a look of satisfaction.

At present, his territory has entered a period of rapid development, and the guarding force of his territory has begun to be filled!

The trainees in the training ground have not yet grown up, but two ready-made first-class knights have joined, which can just fill the gap in the patrol.

In the past, when the population was small, patrols were dispensable. However, as the scale of the town continues to expand, the population continues to increase, and prevention is better than prevention, and the issue of public security must be placed in an important position.

Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain.

Territorial development is a comprehensive and systemic issue, and any link is directly or indirectly linked.

The ultimate goal of LTECH is to ensure the stable development of the territory, realize the continuous increase of the population base, and ultimately bring the demographic dividend!

When the population base rises, there will naturally be more and more talented people.

This is a long-term plan, and no matter how much short-term investment is made, there will be no obvious benefits.

But if you want one side to become stronger, population is always the most basic and most important part!

A smile gradually appeared on the corner of Ret's mouth.

My thoughts diverged, and I thought of a gang of bandits that were about to attack five days later.

The smile gradually converged, a cold color flashed in his eyes, and he secretly said in his heart: "Dare to hit my attention? Hmph, it came just in time.

It's just to add some Destiny to me......"

Time passed, and five days passed in a blink of an eye.

To the southeast of Eagle Town, in a grove a kilometer away.

A short figure, stepping on a cyan streamer, rushed into the dense forest from the direction of Eagle Town.

"Wind Rat, what's going on? What about the garrison in Eagle Town? A tall man jumped down from a tree, startled a few night birds, and said with a hand on the shoulder of the short man.

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
