On the morning of the 26th, Rand took Gleia and Tierney to Longtai Mountain, and at the banquet last night, the panda-man Xiu Ming told Rand that Queen Tyriana Dragon's Blood might soon return to the net, and asked him to invite Ernst and Halkala to the Thorn Sinkhole as soon as possible.

"My lord? You didn't have a break yesterday, okay? Tierney asked casually as he felt Rand riding on fire, but not as energetic as he used to be. It's okay, maybe I drank too much at the banquet yesterday," Rand looked at Gurea next to him and blushed, and quickly explained.

In fact, yesterday at the station, Wendy raised a question: Is it only a form of feasting that can achieve the effect of sharing magic? Is it possible that other forms of giving and sadhanas can have a similar effect?

After that, Rand and Wendy, Cardinal and Gruena took turns to experiment, and finally proved that although there was a similar effect, the efficiency of magic sharing was too low, and at most it could only enhance the relationship, and after getting up this morning, Rand also found that the experiment in yesterday's dream was a bit too expensive, and it was almost time to feast on the forest cat and the scorched wolf.

When Rand came to Longtai Mountain this time, he felt that it was a lot more lively along the way, not only could he meet patrols, but the knights and soldiers around the outpost also multiplied.

Not only are there more people, but their attitude towards Rand is also a lot more enthusiastic, almost every patrol of knights meets Rand, their captain will take the initiative to meet him, some people call Rand Duke, some call His Majesty, and some call His Excellency, and even Tierney has become a "good nephew, young talent" in their mouths.

"My lord, I don't think many of them have seen me in years?" Tierney, who had been praised a lot, touched his head and said. "How do you hear like they're around me every day watching me fight?"

Rand smiled and waved his hand and said: "Hehe, it's okay, you can just listen to their words, you have to listen carefully to Liel's words, no one else cares about how you live in the future, only she cares the most." ”

"Oh," Tierney nodded.

The three of them came to Corbin Joysen, that is, Tierney's grandfather's residence, which was originally a shrine to the founding monarch of the Red Dragon, because the Joyson family was assigned a few years ago, which seemed to have a special sense of life.

The first time Rand came here was as the vice-captain of the Knights, and met with his titular boss, Earl Corbyn.

At that time, Rand did not see anyone here except Corbyn, Tierney and his father, three humans and a great goblin of Liel, and even came many times after that, and only saw Corbyn's sons, so it can be said that the knights under the name of Count Corbyn were completely a nominal knightly order, and there was nothing but the establishment.

This time, however, in the square in front of the main building, Rand saw a full 30 knights training in formation, while the Count and his sons worked diligently to teach the knights to practice horsemanship and swordsmanship.

Both Rand and Tierney were surprised by such a sight, and the little knight hurriedly asked Riel, the great goblin who flew over, "Riel? What's going on with these knights? Her Royal Highness sent her lovers over? ”

The big goblin said happily, "Huh? Don't you know? Aren't these all your knights? ”

"Our family?" Rand was stunned.

"That's right, isn't your family a resident knight in Dragon's Tooth City? And also allowed Du Gen to continue to receive, he collected more, at present, there are about 100 knights stationed in Dragon Tooth City, 30 people are stationed in the palace, there are 30 people here, and a group is on the side of the Chamber of Commerce. ”

"Ahhh......h

In the face of Rant's question, Liel could only say: "Hey, most of these people were stuffed by those families after the breakthrough of your family's two national pillars, at that time, Dugan also went to the front line and entrusted the matter of receiving to Corbyn, but a group of big nobles came over to ask for help, and he couldn't push it off, so he could only accept it first and wait for you to come over and decide." ”

"Our family can't digest so many knights!" In the face of the sudden population expansion, Rand also scratched his head.

However, looking closely at Corbyn's training, Rand found that the knights of Dragon's Tooth City had merit, and the old earl was not training field skills, but patrolling, searching and suppressing these subjects in big cities, which was indeed in a completely different direction from the battle of the Knights of the Galloping Horse.

"Rand!" Corbyn saw Rand and quickly stopped him, "What do you think of these little guys?" ”

"Except for a little more people, nothing else." Rand couldn't stand it.

"Dugan told me before that you have built several cities, and now you have to manage the two earls of Maned Wolf City and White Tree City, you can't just rely on those dolls in the school to manage it, right?" Corbyn's meaning is very clear, Rand needs knights who specialize in policing, these people don't necessarily need intermediate, and even junior knights are overarmed.

"The biggest characteristic of these people is that they are very clear about the doorways of large and small families, and they know how to carry out your orders."

Rand nodded, the other meaning of the earl's words is that they are now old fritters, and they are usually no problem as front-line city managers, but when they encounter hard bones, they have to find someone by themselves.

Not only Count Corbyn, but since the breakthrough of Halkala and the defense of the plain by Rant, the strength and population of the entire territory have been rapidly expanding unconsciously.

Without the risk of war, Night Qicheng has become a common destination for low-level demon supporters to find a way out and high-level gentlemen to have fun. And the two border cities of White Wolf and Iowa have also poured into more orcs, finless porpoises and barbarians.

Rand also understands that in order to deal with these new immigrants, the most important thing is to establish effective grassroots governance, honestly cultivate a group of grassroots bureaucrats, and cover their control capabilities in every street, every post station, and every waterway.

……

Leaving the shrine, Rand went to the Red Dragon Rock, and in the sinkhole of the Dragon's Blood Thorns, he met Tyriana Dragon's Blood Queen, Abilis the Great Thorn Elf, and Andilis, a high-level Dragon's Blood Thorn.

"We're meeting again, Rand," the queen of the sinkhole, in a similar state to Rand when she first saw her, graceful and magical, and couldn't tell that she was about to return to the net, "how does it feel to finish the battle?" ”

"Before the war, I felt that the enemy was only orcs, but now there are no enemies, but there are battles everywhere!" Rand said helplessly.

"Every legend will be energetic in this process, at the beginning they eagerly participate in the activities around them, mentoring their apprentices and descendants, but in a few hundred years, seeing only unfamiliar faces around them, no matter how great their enthusiasm will become indifferent."

Rand nodded silently, probably knowing why Queen Teriana kept Abyleus by her side.
