Chapter 23 Strong Trust

With that, Richard walked out of the living room, but Lina stood in the doorway, blocking his way, but she didn't seem to give way.

"Lina?" Richard looked at the dragon mage suspiciously.

The dragon mage's face was very complicated, and he looked at Richard like this, but he still didn't move.

Richard quickly understood what the dragon mage meant, so he said helplessly: "Lina, do you want me to give up this territory? That is at least a viscount, Norland's territory." ”

Lina's face was blank, and she asked, "Territory?ah, what territory?"

Richard stared at her fiercely for a while, then sighed helplessly and said, "You...... Okay! I see. ”

Richard immediately turned around and shouted, "Thorsrael!"

The black-haired girl immediately bounced up from the ground and rushed to Richard to stand upright, her face full of excitement, and her chest was rising and falling violently. Her eyes were full of anticipation.

Richard looked at her earnestly, and after a moment gave up the idea of distinguishing whether her expression was real or fake. Richard couldn't find the slightest loophole in Thorsrael, not even using parsing. But when he thought of what Sosrael had done to his twin sister, Richard always felt that she would not be so simple and cowardly.

Maybe she's really just on the spur of the moment, but more likely it's a very great actor.

Richard patted her head and said, "Go to my private plane, I will give you a small army as your team, you can use it to make your own worth!"

Thorsrael immediately jumped up with excitement, her little face full of excitement and joy: "You're not going to drive me back?"

Richard said, "I know you're mostly acting, but since I can't see it, then even if you win." So I'll give you a chance, and I'll give you a trust. But you have to remember that my trust is not for you, but for Lina. This opportunity is given to you by her. Also, there is only one chance, and I never forgive betrayal. ”

Thorsrael stood with her head down, and only looked up after a moment, but by this time she had gathered up a pitiful expression, regained the cunning beauty of the first sight, and said, "I will not let you down." ”

Richard nodded and said, "Then I'm looking forward to it." ”

After having Thorsrael taken down, Richard looked at Lina, shrugged, and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute, Richard!" said Lina, who stopped him, looking very uneasy, and said for a long time, "Am I doing something wrong......?

Richard smiled and said, "It's a county." ”

Lina understood what Richard meant, and the Schumpeter family would definitely take a piece of the county in exchange for Thorsrael, not because she was really worth that much, but because Richard wanted to pay for it as a truce.

A piece of Norland's county is worth just look at Goliath and Ellie. Even with Gordon's ability, at the moment of the final battle, he is just a marquis.

"I'm ......" Lina didn't know what to say.

"Okay, it's okay. If giving up a county makes you feel like you're going to feel at home, it's worth it to me!" Richard said.

"But ......"

Richard stopped the Dragon Mage's argument and said, "Lina, your value is much greater than you think. At least I'm willing to trade a county for your trust. ”

With that, Richard waved his hand to Master Dragon and left the living room.

Master Long only felt that his breathing was not smooth enough, and his body was a little weak, so he found a sofa and put himself in.

Leaning on the back of the couch, the laughter of two men kept appearing in front of her eyes, and they were very different smiles. Gordon is always blazing and heavy, like rolling lava. Richard, on the other hand, was much more gentle and delicate. Originally, Richard always had some immature and youthful shadows, but recently, his gestures have become more charming and similar to Gordon.

This time Richard came back temporarily, and it was not a public return day, so there were not many visitors to the floating island. But the posters that Richard had arranged for the meeting were still stacked high.

The old butler, as always, carefully sorted it out, and put together the letters of the important people separately. Richard gave himself half an hour to open and go through all the letters. There was one letter that piqued his interest, and he read it twice as an exception.

The letter was written by Vonst.

In the letter, he first expressed his admiration for Richard, then humbly expressed his remorse for his disrespect to Richard, and then spoke of his fanatical love for construction and his extraordinary talent. At the end of the letter, Vonst expressed his willingness to worship Richard and learn from Richard in construction. He even used Richard's astonishing achievements in the costume as an excuse to express his willingness to be the godfather of Richard and that baptism could be performed in the Dragon Palace.

It was a letter that left Richard speechless. He really couldn't imagine that there were such shameless people in the world, but if he thought about it carefully, it seemed that there were not a few such people.

What makes Richard incomprehensible is that Vonst's talent is okay, and he has already stepped into the door of construction, and he still has resources that ordinary people don't have, and over time, he can always make third-order construction. At that time, he was destined to live a richer and more powerful life than most people, so why did he have to fight Richard's idea? No matter what plane he was in, switching teachers in such a situation would not be a commendable act.

Perhaps people in this position will be more eager for status and wealth than ordinary people.

Richard crumpled the letter and threw it into the paper.

After another day, Richard saw five heads belonging to the Council of Elders of the Schumpeter family, and then left Norland and headed for Faro.

At the moment, Richard's followers are all in Faro, and the situation here is already very good.

It's been nearly a year since the end of the Sixth War of the Gods, and Richard has spent most of his time immersed in the world of construction and magic, suppressing his magic in every way while slowly honing his bloodline power.

However, he didn't stay in the magic room all the time, and occasionally personally ordered troops to fight a big battle with the Iron Triangle Empire.

In a period of more than a month, Richard successively defeated the three integrated legions of the Iron Triangle Empire, completely wiped out the two priesthood regiments of Sinai, the god of time, and killed more than 300 Templars. Three of the ten most prosperous cities in the southern part of the Iron Triangle Empire were breached by Richard.

This war shook the entire Iron Triangle Empire, and just as the empire was preparing to mobilize the whole country, Richard had slowly withdrawn from the empire's territory with a huge amount of wealth.

In the end, after a long quarrel, the Iron Triangle Imperial Council finally paid an astronomical ransom for the 20,000 captured warriors, and promised not to carry out any future provocations against the Richard Crimson Grand Duke.

So far, except for Li Shilongtu in the Iron Triangle Empire, the rest of the famous generals have all been defeated in the hands of Richard. And the whole empire never mentioned the matter of letting Li Shilongtu go to war, but only let him entangle with the dragon cultists with peace of mind, or go to the eastern front to change his taste. Li Shilongtu is already the last god of war in the empire, and once he is also defeated in the hands of Richard, the blow to the Iron Triangle Empire will be unprecedented.

Richard had no intention or ability to destroy the entire Iron Triangle Empire, and after reaching an agreement with the Empire, Richard transferred the main force to the ancestral source highlands and continued to march deeper into the highlands. And he himself continues to explore the world of construction.

But this time after returning from Norland, Richard did not continue to live this secluded life. He became a little restless, and when he was walking around Oasis City and had met the beautiful goddess for the seventh time, Richard returned to his courtyard to summon the star chrysalis, and then rode it straight to the turbulent land where the brood was.

It's been a long time since I've seen a brood.

The star chrysalis flew fast and steadily, and it didn't take long to reach the turbulent land. Richard slowed it down and looked down, only to be surprised to see that the Land of Turmoil had completely changed.

The turbulent land is a desert, the original forest has long since disappeared, revealing the lifeless rock formations below.

Richard couldn't sense any breath of life under the soil, not even insects. In his memory, the Land of Turmoil was not like that.

Originally, this was a land of lush life, full of all kinds of life, including some intelligent life such as goblins and cavemen.

The elusive time streamers of the Turbulent Lands are too dangerous for humans, but they don't matter to these lives. They have a short growth period and a strong ability to reproduce, even if the entire tribe is swept away by the time streamer, it will not take two or three years to make up for the loss. There is even more variety of non-intelligent life.

Now, however, all that remains is desolation.

Richard looked ahead, and on the horizon at the end of his line of sight, he saw a new forest.

The forest is made up entirely of a species of trees, each growing extremely tall and with its fat leaves swaying in the wind. Not only did these trees look exactly the same, but they were even the same in size, height, and spacing from each other! The whole forest looked like the most accurate alchemy machine, which made people feel chills when they looked at it.

As the star chrysalis passed silently over the forest, all the trees swayed slightly, as if to greet the star chrysalis and Richard. It was an eerie forest, and there was no life other than the trees.

In the middle of the forest, there stands a huge insect nest. And in the distance, there are two more of the same nest.

There is a clearing in the forest, and the brood is lying in the clearing, and the fog around it is dissipating with the wind.

"Master, you're finally here. The voice of the brood rang out in Richard's consciousness.

"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have found out that this place had been transformed into this way by you. Richard said as he jumped off the chrysalis and looked up at the brood.

At this moment, in front of the brood, which was already more than 100 meters long, Richard was as small as an ant. He walked up to a big tree, patted the trunk vigorously, and asked, "You created these zĂ o, right?"

PS: This is the legendary addition. In addition, I am going to adjust the time of the change, no longer one change every day until the end of the month. It is possible to add two more, or not to add more. But the total amount of more will fulfill the promise.

For example, tonight, it's two additions.
