Chapter 25: Reunion

Winterport is an important trading port between the two countries, although it was destroyed in the beast plague in the previous years, but the beast plague has receded, and the two freshwater port cities have been rebuilt at a very fast speed, in the end, this is the safest Caspian sea route that converts the huge harvest of the mercenary kingdom's beast plague into real gold coins, and the trade status is too important. Both merchants and mercenaries are more than happy to contribute manpower and material resources to the reconstruction of the two cities, and by the way, they are qualified to settle in these two cities!

As for the other routes, they have to pass through the center of the Caspian Sea and pass through, and they have to guard against the hunting team of the hereditary nobles of El Salin, which is far less reliable than the sea route of the Southern Forest Province! And Raun is unwilling to deal with the hereditary nobles of the Caspian Province and the Elder Province on the shore of the El Salin River, so he chooses the route of Winter Harbor, although it will be dangerous to cross the jungle, but in Lawn's opinion, the hunting team of the nobles is the real danger, because the combination of strength and wisdom is far more terrifying than the simple power of the Warcraft.

Of course, it must be explained that relying on the Caspian Sea, the Caspian Province and the Province of Elder Salin are important places where the hereditary nobility of the warrior kingdom exists, and they are the remnants of the aristocratic group defeated by the El Salin family in the previous era, and they were forcibly retained by the behemoth of the Southern Commercial Alliance to balance the royal family of El Salin. As for the remaining feudal nobles, some of them are in the southernmost part of the warrior kingdom, in the barren plateau province of Dusk Forest, where there are ancient families that rely on mining, and there are also ancient families that are close to the royal family of El Salin, due to their barren location, they are not annexed by the royal family, but manage the mining of El Salin together with the new nobles. The other part is the nightmare of all the hereditary nobles, as a battlefield on the border between El Salin and the Land of the Dead: the Northlands, the eastern province of the Northlands! The hereditary nobles are in charge of this half of the line, as the price for the royal family of El Salin to recognize the rationality of the existence of the hereditary nobility! It has always been called the aristocratic meat grinder by the hereditary nobles!

On the other hand, the western province of the Northland is guarded by the military generals of the royal family, and to the south of the two provinces is the military province of Al Salin, the most populous, geographically advantageous, and the grain producing area of rivers and lakes. The main institute of the Warrior Kingdom Warrior Academy is not in the province of Salin in Zhili but here! The province of Salin directly under it is the most extensive province, but unfortunately most of them are located in the cold temperate zone, similar to the latitude of the southern forest province, rich in fierce people, but not rich in itself, it is the birthplace of El Salin. These are all 8 provinces of Al Salin. And the entire kingdom of Al Salin, according to modern terms, is a feudal society that retains the remnants of slavery.

To get back to the point, Lawne and his party were in the Mercenary Kingdom's Winter Harbor at this time, waiting for the ship to set sail. There is no safety of the warship when it comes, and the speed of the commercial ship is slower than that of the warship, but fortunately, the captain's many years of sailing experience is much better than that of the captain of the warship, which makes Lawne feel at ease, at least at this time, although Lawn has the 8th order, he is not confident that he can still maintain the combat effectiveness of the 8th order in the complete fire system away from home on the water. Watching Cassie listen to Darcy's instructions and help her family arrange the cabin, Lawne was a little envious, but fortunately it was not far from home, although it was a little homesick, but it was also comforting.

The gifts of the family have been prepared, the 4 rings harvested from Yanggu City, and the space of thousands of cubic meters are completely strategic-level treasures, left to the parents, as for the elder brother and second sister, a hundred cubic meters made by Lawn himself is enough, no matter how big it is, I think the parents will definitely confiscate the military... With the help of Morin, Lawne successfully built a huge space on his left finger bone and placed the Jidu sword, and most of Lawn's valuable objects are also here, although the space on his hand is more than a hundred, it is only some hidden spell casting materials and life needs. With the help of Morin, Lawn created his own spell casting system that did not require materials, and was not ready to promote it, and even Lawn himself felt that this method of spell casting was too risky! The remaining two were left for his king's grandfather to serve as a military use.

With a faint thought, Lawne had the confidence to have enough gifts, and on the other hand, he was secretly working on a draft, what to say to his family, and the ship slowly left Winterhaven. If you want to say the difference with the warship, it is naturally less of the sailor's call, only the water mage controls the water flow and slowly sends the ship to sail on the water, but the speed is indeed much slower, no wonder the Al Salin military still uses manpower, this speed, the warship is absolutely unacceptable!

Fortunately, the group that crossed the Caspian Sea for the second time did not welcome the farewell of high-level demonic beasts again, but came to the port city without any danger all the way!

El Salin, who has been away for 5 years, has once again set foot on his homeland!

Looking at the taller and heavier city walls of the port city, Lawne smiled helplessly, and he didn't know what kind of memories the huge beast disaster gave to Elsarien, he actually repaired the city wall to a thickness of more than 100 meters, and the carriage walked under the city wall, Lawn always had the illusion that the city wall would collapse in the next moment, it was too thick, and the long city gate road gave people a sense of oppression too heavy!

That beast plague left an impression on Al Salin that was too terrifying! This made Raun not know how to arrange the location of the only mage tower, theoretically speaking, Ron didn't think that there was a chance to get another 11th-order soul crystal, and the best location for the only mage tower was naturally the mage academy located in the royal capital, which was used to engrave spell slots for low-level mages, which could give mages more time to hone their spiritual power and improve their ranks. But if it is arranged in the Warcraft defense line, it may not be impossible to get another piece of soul crystal, although the probability is very small, but if you wait patiently, it must be possible to get a piece in 10,000 years. At the same time, the Demonic Beast Disaster can also absorb a lot of soul power every year, making this soul crystal, which barely reached the 12th order at this time, more condensed.

Lawne felt that he couldn't make this kind of decision, and in the end it was up to the big guys to distribute. Without stopping in Gangcheng, Lawne and his entourage only added a few more carriages to make the crowded carriages spacious again, and found an additional team of guards and a civilian official who knew more about the current situation of Nanlin Province from Gangcheng to accompany them, and the convoy set off directly for Nanlin County.

Due to the catastrophe of Warcraft many years ago, the number of Demonic Beasts broke into the interior, causing the Warcraft defense line to retreat directly to the vicinity of Nanlin County, where the capital of Nanlin Province is located, where Lawn's mother, Bella Ryan, broke through the 10th Order when she resisted several 9th-order Demonic Beasts at the same time, and finally held half of Nanlin Province. Fortunately, it was not as good as the Mage Kingdom to encounter 10th-order magical beasts, but a large number of 9th-order still went north along the Caspian Sea, causing serious damage to the entire territory of Elder Province, and El Salin had to transfer a large number of people from Esa Province to enrich the population of Southern Forest Province to ensure that the soldiers of Southern Forest Province were sufficient to deal with the threat of the Warcraft Forest and the Orc Plateau. For some reason, the province of Salin has also replenished a large number of people, resulting in a shortage of population in Isa Province and a shortage of troops on the Northland Front, which has been very difficult to maintain in the past four years. Fortunately, with Bella Ryan's 10th-order strength as a deterrent, the Death Nation did not provoke the fragile nerves of the warrior kingdom, and although the war in the Northland was tight, the battle line was barely preserved.

It is rumored that the conflict between the Southern Merchant Alliance and the Flowing Wind Empire in the Continent of All Souls has led to a sharp increase in war slaves, and through large-scale procurement of slaves, the population of Al Salin has barely been replenished, but the distribution ratio has changed greatly. The province of Eddid also had a large number of active forces in the slave trade, which led to an increase in the contradictions between the kingdom and the hereditary aristocracy. Increasing the population of Nanlin and Salin provinces is also a counterweight to Aide Province.

In addition, Nanlin Province has deployed a lot of elite corps on the Orc Plateau, and it seems that there are also changes in the Orc Plateau.

Summing up all the news that the civilian official told him, Lawn felt that he had no chance to be idle, basically every battlefield was short of people, and Lawn, who was already at the 8th level, obviously had no chance to play. It's just that I don't know which battlefield I will eventually take root in and start my long war career, which is also the inevitable path of the royal powerhouse, guarding the kingdom until death! What is summarized through other people's brains must carry the writer's own position, and in Lawn's view, it is more appropriate to experience it yourself!

Like the Mercenary Kingdom, where the Warcraft passes, the forest is dense, and El Salin is also harvesting trees little by little to expand the living space of humans, the goal is the original Warcraft defense line, where the first line of defense will be built again, according to the civil official, through the opening of several roads, the major defense lines have been put into use, and now what Lawn sees is only restoring the farmland, compared to the spells of the Mage Kingdom, the powerful physical strength of the warriors of the Warrior Kingdom is obviously very good at construction. Seeing the soldiers on the side of the road assisting the farmers in clearing the land and cutting down the trees, Lawne felt that it was a bit redundant to ask for another team of guards, the demonic beasts in the woods had basically been dealt with, and there were no demonic beast attacks along the way. In terms of national strength, the warrior kingdom is too much higher than the mercenary kingdom, and the forest expansion that is almost powerless for the mercenary kingdom can be restored in a few more years!

After walking for a few days, Lawne learned the news he wanted to know, so he sent the team of guards to escort the civilian officials back to Hong Kong City......

Looking at Nanlin City in front of him, Lawne breathed a sigh of relief, and finally came back! Home, this is his own territory! Lawn turned over his horse and galloped towards the City Lord's Mansion, Cassie had to arrange his father-in-law, and the cavalry team was also sent home by Lawn, and Lawn went to find his home alone.

Waving his hand and sending away the meaning of the guard at the door preparing to report, it is the young master, this report can still be saved, Lawn turned around and came to the side hall, and finally saw his family. Xu is in the summer of January in the southern hemisphere, there are few battles on all fronts, Lawn's parents, brothers and sisters are there, and his mother Bella is already looking at him, a 10th-order warrior, even if the soul power is not as good as a mage, with Lawn's 8th-order concealment ability, he still can't hide his mother!

Lawn stupidly dismissed the preparation for the big surprise, and grinned, "Mom, you are too powerful, 10th order, I still want to scare you." ”

Lawn's words instantly attracted the attention of the family, and his father Shunan was still so majestic, "Sit, I heard the scout say that you can arrive at noon, just wait for you, it's time to eat!" Knowing that his father's majesty would not have any hugs or anything like that, Lawn pounced and gave a big hug to Sith and Ceci who rushed towards him.

"Sister, I'm not afraid of your hug now, tsk, it's only the 5th order, I'm strong now!" Lawn can naturally clearly perceive the strength of his brother Xisi at the 6th order and the fighting spirit fluctuation of his sister Secy's 5th order, but the general temperament of the brother and father just hammered Lawn's chest, and motioned for Lawne to sit down and talk, only the sister has a lively temperament, so she is more willing to talk nonsense!

"Little brother, I wouldn't even dare to admit that you have lost weight, if Cassie hadn't come back last time and brought a portrait, I would have suspected that you were someone else pretending!" After speaking, he also observed around Lawn, "Well, I really can't sense your depth, are you really like my father at the 8th level?

"Haha, sister, you should be jealous, I don't understand this talent, my innate soul power is close to the 8th order, of course others can't compare. Lawn sat down as he spoke, and greeted his father, "Dad, I'm back!"

Shunan ordered some food on the table, motioned to eat, and said, "How is the task left by your grandfather?"

Mother Bella didn't have that thought, and directly patted Lawn's shoulder heavily, fortunately, Lawn's internal strength is already at the 5th level, and his physical fitness is almost close to the level of a 4th-order warrior, and he is not as weak as he once was: "Don't care about your father, tell my mother why the girl didn't bring it home, I heard Cassie say, a thousand miles away, a hero saves beauty or something, why didn't you bring it back?"

Lawne suddenly wanted to shoot Cassie to death, but still replied to his mother: "Ah, she, she has her own country to protect, so she can't come! It doesn't matter, I'm also 8th order, and the royal family's marriage will be arranged with them when the time comes!" Lawne didn't want to say much about Lilith, so he only added Terry's reason to the two of them, and hastily answered the question, and as a powerful member of the royal family, marriage would be an inevitable result, it was just a matter of choice.

Seeing that Lawn didn't bring it back, Bella didn't listen to Lawn's explanation at all: "Cut, it's really useless! I haven't cooked raw rice for five years, and I'm still looking forward to seeing my grandson for so long!" As always, Lawn didn't want to stay on this issue for long.

"Oh, the mage tower is very troublesome, I got one of the core components, and I can definitely build a mage tower, but to form a large array like the mage kingdom, it is estimated that it is impossible. I just don't know where this only one is going to be built?" "With his father's problem, Lawne got rid of his mother's problem, and he didn't care about his mother's rough lines, because the eldest brother and two sisters were not married yet, and he wouldn't rush the youngest self if he wanted to.

"Well, in a few days, you go to the royal capital and ask your grandfather, it just so happens that the three of you little guys will go together, get to know the princess of the minister of the royal capital, arrange the marriage, and in a few years, you should also contact the army, there is no time to think about this, don't be afraid of more, marry together!" Raun didn't expect his father's last sentence to be more powerful than his mother, although the battlefield mortality rate of men in the warrior kingdom is extremely high, the ratio of men and women is to the extent that it is impossible to look directly, and even in some defense lines, a large number of female soldiers have to be recruited, polygamy is largely not a matter of loyalty, but men are too rare, before facing the battlefield of life and death, reproduction is the first task of every soldier! In order to alleviate this imbalance between men and women, Mother Bella's Warcraft defense line is a very famous female soldier defense line, and the ratio of men to women is almost half!

"Sister, when the time comes, you will also recruit a few more colts!" In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Lawne was ready to avenge the revelation just now. As a princess of the royal family, it is obviously impossible to get married, basically it is to recruit horses, even if you marry, I am afraid that the 8th order warrior can be regarded as the minimum requirement!

Ceci didn't answer, his whole face seemed to be shrouded in darkness, only his eyes glowed a demonic red, and he slapped Raune under the table with one palm!

Lau En changed the stool stupidly, and took the initiative to stay away from his sister, but it was the eldest brother who relieved the siege: "The second sister fell in love with a little soldier, but people came for the glory and wealth, and she was caught splitting her legs, and now the second sister is angry when she mentions this, and the third brother doesn't have to mind!"

Lawn silently mourned for that man, everyone else has three wives and four concubines, he has no chance to fall in love with the royal family, it is estimated that he is going to secretly keep a few more descendants, but he was arrested...

"Second sister, I brought you a gift!" Lawne felt that it was time to take out the gift, otherwise the thunder would be too positive to be revealed. Just handed her the space ring that was brought to Seci, there are still a lot of warrior equipment in the snare of Lawn, the mage kingdom is close to the dwarf mountain, and it is much easier to obtain the dwarf's high-quality equipment than Elsalin!

Ceci also noticed a lot of good things in the ring, "For the sake of the gift, I forgive you......!

"What about the old lady?" heard it well, and her mother Bella also interjected, but she couldn't change the bad problem of calling herself an old lady to everyone... Bella was also very satisfied with the huge space comparable to the military, and took this opportunity to naturally give the rings to his father and eldest brother, but changed his mind about the remaining two

"I still have two large military space rings, Mom and Dad, how do you divide them, you two and one for each person? But these two are empty, and there are no gifts in them. "Lawn thinks it's better for his family to digest it, as a king, this kind of gift is estimated to be completely unsightly, completely unaware that in fact, there are only 5 large space rings like the warrior kingdom, which are only used when transporting military supplies......

"Send it to your grandfather, it's enough for our family to keep these two, you have a small one, just give me a small one, I'll leave this one to your mother, she has a great harvest every year in the Warcraft Defense Line, and it's convenient to keep the loot with this!"

"Well, there are quite a few, different sizes, you can pick your own, I have this in my hand is enough!" Lawn was not prepared to leave those messy practice works, Morin added space to Lawn's fingers for Lawn still does not know how big it is, with the 8th level of spiritual power, he is not capable of fully probing, with this foundation, Lawn feels that it is completely enough. Saying that, he found an open space on the table and poured out dozens of rings, there was very little space in it, all of them were works from practice, mainly because after getting to know Morin, Lawn's energy was not too much on this, and they were all made together by the way when preparing gifts for his family.

The family just picked and picked and picked while enjoying the food, and ended the lunch, and in the end, it was only the elder brother who took the lion's share and took the ring, ready to keep it as a dowry...... Ignoring Lawn's contempt, Lawne doesn't feel precious when it comes to these rings, but for most people, the value is far higher than the magic core that Lawn values, and mages and warriors really have different ways of thinking.
