In late October of 1360 in the valley calendar, the forest kingdom of Cormier had already begun to enter winter, and the sea breeze blowing from the shores of Longhu Lake was getting colder, and according to previous experience, the first snow of the year would come in a few weeks.

At this time, the country's arable land is also harvested in the autumn, and the Komir begins to enter the slack season, and people make final preparations for winter, slaughtering livestock, sewing clothes, and repairing houses.

Year after year, no matter what happens in the wilderness of the realm, everything doesn't seem to make much difference to the farmer who hangs his head in the field.

But this year's Susar is not calm.

On the surface, Cormier's royal city remained under the strong control of the regent after the onset of winter, and after the Sage Catastrophe, the Goblin War in which Asan IV was killed, and the series of upheavals in which the regent took over the palace, it seemed that it was finally able to survive a peaceful Midwinter Festival.

However, a wave of unsettled waves has risen, and it has just entered late October, and two strange things have happened in the royal city.

The first thing is that a night watchman found the bodies of two queens' blades in an alley in a wealthy area, and the night watchman was alarmed, and hurried to report to the royal family, and waited for a great earthquake that would affect the whole city, and everyone was terrified, afraid that the princess regent would be furious because of it.

Surprisingly, Alice Searle didn't react to the incident, and the regent just said that she knew.

The second incident is that two days after the two queens' blades were killed, one of the clubhouses of the famous "Silver Falcon" chamber of commerce was attacked, and more than 30 people in the clubhouse were killed.

The Silver Falcon Chamber of Commerce is one of the main sponsors of the Duke of Caspar, the husband of Princess Crown.

Cormier's aristocrats began to wait again to see if this would create a new political storm.

The ending disappointed them again, and Duke Caspar said nothing.

At this moment, everyone felt that under the calm Dragon Lake, there was a huge whirlpool hidden, and both sides were accumulating strength, looking for opportunities, both sides were waiting, and they were very careful not to break this balance.

Aaron did not receive instructions from the regent in these matters.

Aaron knew that Alice was protecting him and didn't want him to get involved in the political maelstrom too soon.

The other faction didn't dare to do anything to Aaron, just because Aaron could summon the incarnation of gods and make a contract with the dwarves, it was difficult for anyone to dare to attack him directly.

Both sides of the wrestling are currently in the position that he does not exist, and Aaron himself is happy to be idle.

On a quiet night, as Aaron sat in his study after dinner, he opened the window, and the cold wind blowing in his face shook his spirits, and the Viscount began to write and draw on parchment with a quill in his hand.

He made a list of what he would do next.

First of all, Aaron wrote the first line of words, "Prepare enough start-up capital", and put a √ on it.

After these adventures, he harvested the color-resistant scroll and signed a contract with the dwarf god king Moradin, Aaron has absolutely no problem with the start-up capital, and his current net worth is conservatively estimated to be more than 50,000 gold lion coins, so much money is enough for him to use for a while.

Moradin told Aaron that the dwarves needed a little time to prepare.

Dwarves have a different concept of time from humans, dwarves can live for 400 years, and legendary dwarves can live longer, so Moradin's "a little time", and considering the impatience of the dwarf god king, Aaron thinks that it will take at least a year or two.

A year or two...... It's acceptable.

The second line of words "improve your strength" is marked with a "? ”。

After returning to Susar, Aaron's strength is already an elite mid-level "Chaos God Venerable Warlock", and the power of the Secret Keeper's transformation has also been proven in previous battles to be able to fight against master-level strong enemies in a short time, and the current situation is enough for Aaron.

What's more, Aaron had already begun to write the "Second Book of Salian", and after gaining the ability to cast spells from the Four Rings, Aaron learned two new four-ring spells from Tzeentch and Slaanesh.

The first spell is called "Tzeentch's Stealing Spell".

Tzeentch's Stealing Spell: Four-Ring Magic.

Cast Time: An action that is performed when you see a creature within 60 feet of you cast a spell you already know.

Materials required to cast spells: None.

With Tzeentch's ability to control magic, Aaron can instantly control a creature that is casting a spell of 4 rings or less. He can choose the area of effect, target, or control of the effect for this spell. If the spell needs focus, then Aaron needs to stay focused on the spell as well.

If the opponent's magic is less than 4 rings, it will be successful, and if the opponent's magic is equal to 4 rings, Aaron will need to compete with the opponent for control of the magic element.

The subject of the stolen spell will take the Dark Erosion damage from Mana Retaliation, and the higher the number of magic rings, the higher the Retaliation damage.

Before getting rid of the effects of Regurgitation, the subject will be affected every time they cast a spell.

Tzeentch's stealing spell can be cast by raising rings: that is, if Aaron can release 5 rings or more of magic in the future, he can also control the opponent's higher-level magic, but this magic cannot exceed the highest ring magic that Aaron can release, nor can it be magic that Aaron does not know.

The second spell is called "Slaanesh Dance".

Slaanesh Dance: Four-ring magic.

Aaron can invoke the power of Slaanesh, summoning the phantom of the Slaanesh demon to influence creatures with normal hearing and normal IQ within 15 feet of him, luring them to dance together.

Tempted creatures need to pass a charisma immunity (a head-on encounter with Aaron's charisma), and those who pass will not be affected, and those who do not pass will not be able to control themselves from dancing with the demon of Slaanesh, and will have strong hallucinations and gradually lose their minds during the dance.

Aaron can keep Focusing on casting spells to keep the Demon of Slaanesh dancing for up to 10 minutes.

It can also be released and left to the Demon of Slaanesh on its own, and the Demon of Slaanesh will dance in place for 10 seconds before disappearing.

Affected individuals will wake up after substantial damage.

Neither of these Chaos Spells is a powerful output type of magic, but they are both very useful to Aaron, who specializes in restraining mages, especially ordinary spellcasters who only know the most familiar magic.

The latter is a large group control stunt, specializing in restraining melee fighters who rush into the face.

After learning these two new spells, Aaron's life-saving ability has been greatly improved.

But this incident also gave Aaron a wake-up call.

His adventures in the ruins of the Serpent Empire made him realize that if he continued to rely entirely on the powers of Tzeentch and Slaanesh, the powers of Terrorist and Nurgle might never be opened.

The four gods of chaos are like this, if you pursue the gifts of one of the gods, the other three gods will loathe you, and if you rely too much on one of them, the other three will close the door to you.

Aaron had relied a little too much on Slaanesh and Tzeentch for some time.

For him, it was no longer of great significance to continue to develop the divine spark of these two Chaos Gods, and the most important thing at the moment was to determine the path he would take in the future.

The best way is for the power of the four gods to go hand in hand, to seal the gods with the rank of chaos gods, absorb the spark of divinity, and achieve the god of chaos, that is, the fifth god of chaos.

The worst path is to push the power of one of these gods to the extreme, and become a slave god of Slaanesh or Tzeentch.

There is no doubt that Aaron wants the first, not the second.

If he clings to the "power of Slaanesh", Aaron feels that even if he is a god, he will be a "weak divine power" at best, unless he intends to turn against the Silver Lady Suren and the fire-haired lady Shannie and take their priesthood.

This is impossible, whether it is from the point of conscience, from the morality, from the law, or from the perspective of interpersonal relationships and future development interests, Aaron can't do such a thing, Su Lun Mama is very good to him, of course he has to repay her fiercely.

Moreover, the power of monochrome sin is not to mention the four gods of hammer chaos, even if it is the weakest of the four gods, beating Aaron must be the relationship between a father and a son.

It's really a father beating his son, no matter how weak Slaanesh is, at least it's a powerful divine power. Together with the gods who are not good at fighting, believers are all over the multiverse level.

Wait, it's still weak? You're thinking too much, Aaron Salian!

Aaron laughed at himself.

Isn't this just like a plan, if you win the lottery jackpot of 30 million, how to spend it, calculate every expense, and now you are close to winning the lottery?

Isn't this related to the post-Three Kingdoms era, when Emperor Sun Quan discussed with Zhuge Liang how to divide the land of Cao Wei's eight states equally, and even the disputed areas like Sili promised to divide them in half, and now they can start fighting Hefei?

You're not even a master-level strength now, so you're thinking about becoming a god, right?

Aaron himself slapped himself in the face, and he took the quill pen and swiped it casually, and continued to write.

The third line reads: "Form your own team".

Aaron wrote several names underneath, which were "Eleanor", "Fojar-Wilham", and "Cousin Robert".

Eleanor is completely close to eating meat in Aaron's mouth, and Miss Priest is unlikely to leave Aaron without Aaron's death after she has Suren's endorsement.

Aaron is not in a hurry to eat this piece of meat, because if his strength is improved a little more, he can have the "Blessing of Chaos", and when the time comes, Aaron plans to give it to Eleanor through internal injections, and the benefits will be given to her, and the corruption will be solved by herself, and Miss Priest will be able to get the best.

Her gentleness, her seriousness, her golden braid hanging down the back of her head and the little coquettishness when she got along with herself, are the eternal white moonlight in Aaron's heart.

After what happened before, the dwarf craftsman of Fojar has now become silent and hardworking, and he swore in front of Moradin that he would work for him seriously as Aaron's subordinate, and the dwarf has now put away his pride and greed, and Aaron will do whatever he wants.

He knew very well that with Moradin's bend, Fojar Wilham had no place in the dwarf society, and he could only wash away his shame by completing the mission of the god-king and making some achievements under Aaron.

Cousin Robert has limited talents, but it is more than enough to do paperwork, organize materials, write letters, and be a clerk, and he promised his aunt and uncle to find a way out for his cousin.

These three people are already considered to be under their control.

So here's the problem.

The fourth line of the words "find a fief for yourself" is followed by a big "×".

Aaron needed a fief, and he needed it more than ever.

Among other things, the powers of the four gods of Chaos are all demanding of him, and they all aspire to have their own symbolic buildings in the realm.

There are currently two types of buildings unlocked, and even the blueprints are already in Aaron's head.

They are "Slaanesh Grand Theater" and "Tzeentch Library".

The ones that haven't been unlocked yet are "Nurgle's Garden" and "Sadomasochistic Arena".

Aaron wants to build a "Slaanese Theater" first, and when the time comes, he will be able to share the power and faith of this landmark with Suren Mama.

Good brother's grand theater is so good, but this name and holy emblem have to be replaced by Su Lun Ma Ma and mine!

So the question is, with the start-up capital and money, where to find the fiefdom?

This is another headache for Aaron.

The Salian family once had a fief, just north of Susar, in the King's Forest, which the ancestors bought with iron and blood.

Now that he has lost all of his land to his grandfather, and the land has now been transferred to another noble family, his father also signed on behalf of the Salian family at that time, and now it is impossible to get it back.

It is necessary to find a way to build a new fiefdom, and only when there is a fief can you do your own research, build castles, and build chaotic landmark buildings, and only with fiefdoms can you form your own loyal guards and establish your own private small group.

Aaron wasn't very interested in politics, and he wouldn't particularly aspire to be an emperor like Roman Emperor, Knight King, King of Conquest, Lionheart, King Phoenix, Caliph, and Golden Shine.

But even if it is the Eternal Chosen One, it needs its own Chaos Sword Warband, its own Chaos Champion, Chaos Chosen and Demon Prince!

It seems that it is still necessary to continue to use her brains from the regent's daughter.

Aaron rubbed his brow wearily, too many things were weighing on him.

Lord Viscount glanced at the half-written second book of Salian on his desk, which contained the chaos magic of the second and third rings, and began to appear to teach learners how to "worship the true gods".

Let's finish the second book first.

Aaron continued to write, the jet-black ink turning into a strange and twisted chaos of words under his magical power.

"Da~Da~Da"

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and the visitor walked to the door of the study, as if hesitating to disturb him.

"Who is it?" Aaron frowned, and he put down the quill pen.

From the footsteps, he could tell it was his cousin Robert.

Strangely, if it was something important, Robert should knock directly on the door, and if it was something unimportant, Robert should not come to disturb him.

"Come in, what's the matter?" Aaron repeated.

The cousin pushed open the door, the hair on the top of his head brushed against the door frame, and Robert instinctively lowered his body: "Aaron, someone sent a message from your sister. ”

I don't know when it began, the aura on Aaron's body became more and more frightening to Robert, and his cousin no longer dared to talk as casually as before, and regarded himself as Aaron's brother.

Sister? Aaron asked suspiciously, "Which sister?" ”

"I don't know, it's a mage apprentice, he said...... Well, I don't really understand, he said that your sister told you that what you said last time was just right for her, and that person will go to her manor tomorrow for a vacation. Robert clearly didn't understand.

Mage Apprentice?

Got it, it's Miss Charlotte! Miss Warlock was telling him that tomorrow Alice Sell would go to her manor house on the shores of Dragon Lake to rest.

Sister, this is creating an opportunity for herself to get up close and personal with the regent's daughter.

"Got it." Aaron nodded.

Just right, you can give the regent a little "surprise", and by the way, probe her tone.

How can I give myself a fief?
