After cutting down the eleventh mountain road tax purchase detachment on this day, even with Zhou Zhongmou's strong body, he had to breathe a sigh of relief, and his muscles were slightly sore. Although the magic sword was sharp and durable, it was a little tiring to cut down at least thirty or forty goblins in rudimentary chain mail in one goblin, and at least five ogres mixed in

The corpses of the goblins don't need to be cleaned up, and of course there is nothing to clean up - these poor ghosts have already been seen through by Zhou Zhongmou when they jumped out, their hearts, livers, spleens, lungs and kidneys, and the chain mail they wear and the guy they hold in their hands are worth a little money, but other than that, they can be said to have no dime. Of course, this kind of poor ghost is cut down and thrown in the middle of the road to feed the crows is the most suitable way to die - poor to poor, this gang of goblins is also surprisingly Hengzhou Zhongmou has been delayed for a long time, after strenuous activities, he needs to rest, and at the same time to replenish food and water, just when he found a big stone to sit on and unscrew the lid and drink water, his mind also made his own judgment on such frequent road robbery. "I didn't expect the assembled caravan to be so effective in defending against thieves and robbers, look at how hungry this group of scum is. ”

Although the road on this day was really not long, and it took a lot of time, Zhou Zhongmou did not feel anything dissatisfied, cutting and slaying goblins was such a wonderful entertainment sport, so that Zhou Zhongmou was addicted to it. "I think if I can distribute my energy more reasonably, I think I can cut a hundred!"

Now Zhou Zhongmou has been able to adapt to his own strength, he can perfectly control his own combat skills, so waiting for a few dozen goblins is nothing - the growth of the power of the goblins has lagged behind Zhou Zhongmou's growth in this magic tide - in fact, the strength and magic growth of all monsters and humans and non-humans in this world is not as good as in historical records. But the concentration of mana is indeed growing as fast as it has historically. The creation and activation of secret realms in various places are also as recorded.

It took about three months for Zhou Zhongmou to finally return to Petrovodsk, his second home in the world. Of course, he was welcomed by his friends who knew him. "You didn't die on the road, you bastard. So said the elder Rezenov. Of course, he also handed Zhou Zhongmou a glass of wine. "Joke, the goblins and ogres who robbed the road also want me to die?

Returning, Zhou Zhongmou once again stepped into the union's library, where he began to use his mathematical knowledge from the earth to begin to count the recent records of the guild's hunting of goblins and other monster robbers. A thick stack of sheets was put aside, and Zhou Zhongmou used Arabic numerals from the earth to write down these numbers onto a piece of paper, and then he took out another large pile of dusty materials - this is the last time when the magic tide was a monster hunting record, I don't know how many hand-copied - thousands of years, if it weren't for the regular copying, these records would not have been kept at all, and in fact, not much had been preserved, after all, this kind of thing was only remembered to do when the union had money and leisure.

"Sure enough, both in terms of quantity and intensity, it is far inferior to the same period in history. Of course, the records here are extremely incomplete. But this trend can still be seen a little. Zhou Zhongmou flipped through the ancient records, which said that it was only a year after the magic tide occurred, and these broken records alone had killed more goblin monsters than the current records, and the few records also had documents offering bounties for hunting silver-level trolls.

Zhou Zhongmou, who left the union, went to the local Mage Tower office, and after paying a sum of money, he obtained the right to consult the relatively complete records of the Mage Tower. Many of these records are reports of mages analyzing secret realms and hiring powerful thugs to enter various secret realms together, and it is obvious that these secret realms are also simple and robust, just like the information that Zhou Zhongmou has consulted in the past. Although it is the capital of a county, there is a lot of information, but it cannot be compared with the information of those big cities. But Zhou Zhongmou still found enough evidence from it. "Sure enough, it's a simple and robust world, and you can solve all kinds of secret realms with all kinds of turret magic and swords. Then he remembered the two mysterious houses he had encountered, "This is out of place, completely incompatible with the simple and robust copies of this world." Instead, it's more like the places described in horror novels on Earth. ”

After satisfying part of my curiosity. Zhou Zhongmou finally turned his attention to the recent political situation - when he just came back, he found that the world was peaceful, so this guy first satisfied his curiosity.

Recently, the nobles of the north and south supported their respective princes in the struggle for the throne, but the "support" of the Balan Kingdom and the strengthening of the military power of the Transylvanian Empire temporarily calmed down. Both the North and the South have to consider the serious threat of the damned Transylvanian Empire's invading armies - and at this point, the southern ones have a little more headache. It is clear that the main force of the Imperial army is in the south, since it was attacked in the north by the cavalry power of the kingdom of Balan. The Imperial Army gradually tilted its main forces to the south. The situation of evenly distributing the forces between the two spearheads suddenly became an attack from the south and a north, and this group of nobles in the south had a headache. The current front is within three counties in northern Karelia. The only trouble for Karelia at the moment was the detachment of the small Imperial army that had occupied the fortress.

The problem in the north was the cavalry of the Ballan Kingdom who came to their aid, and after a battle, these guys immediately became the emperor of the northern nobles - even if no one admitted it, this gang of trolls was arrogant and arrogant compared to themselves. Although nominally they still regarded the Grand Prince and Duke as their local masters, in reality the centaurs already considered themselves masters of the northern territory of Southern Yuctobania. Since they are the masters, according to the virtue of this group of centaurs, they naturally like to "transfer on the spot", and the rural towns and small aristocratic territories in the north have been harmed by this group of centaurs.

Even though almost all of the northern nobles hated this group of unsolicited "reinforcements" to the bitter end, they had no power to expel them - no single nobleman's military force alone was enough to resist the Centaur army of the Ballan Kingdom, which numbered about 1,500 so far - This is a complete knight formation, of course, this is indeed a knight order, unlike the Southern Yuktobania Kingdom, which likes to give different knight names such as the Black Bull Heavy Knights, except for the Guards Cavalry Regiment, all other knights in the Ballan Kingdom have only one number or place name. The Seventh Cavalry Regiment of Vistula is the name of the knight regiment currently stationed in the north.

The Centaur Cavalry Regiment of the Ballan Kingdom has always been one of the largest cavalry assault forces on this continent, and naturally the combat effectiveness of a complete cavalry regiment is above all the individual aristocratic armies in the north, that is, the military strength of the Northern Aristocratic Coalition Army is equivalent to this 1,500-man cavalry regiment with no auxiliaries, no infantry, and all of them are warriors - although there are gold-level masters, the Ballan Kingdom can also put in the Golden Knight of the Centaurs at any time.

Both the north and the south have their own troubles, and the advantage is that the current situation at least maintains peace, which is what Zhou Zhongmou wants. "It's best if this peace lasts for another year. "He never expected this false peace to last long, but at least it could last until the invading Imperial Army and the uninvited Kingdom Army were driven out, right?" (To be continued......)
