"Whether you were originally from Tassel, or from Am, or from the Dragon's Shore, from now on, we will have a common identity, the newly migrated Valians of the Vale.

This is not to say that you will turn your back on your old traditions, your country, and your city, but rather give you a new identity, and follow me in reaffirming the ancient and sacred Covenant of the Valley.

I will keep my covenant with nature, and I will cultivate the glades, cut down and hunt in a planned way, and maintain the balance and development of the forest......"

"I will keep the ...... of the covenant with nature"

"I will abide by ......"

"I'm going to ......"

Led by Gavin, the entire army of conquerors recited the Covenant of the Vale.

When this ancient covenant, with more than 40,000 people singing in unison, once again echoed over the Great Forest of Kosholman, the trees cheered, the forest wind whistled, and the various forest creatures howled one after another, filled with a unique rhythm that seemed to echo the oath of the conqueror's army.

It's not a delusion, it's happening.

"I witness your vows today, and as long as you keep your vows, the forest will always protect you and be your friend."

A huge figure that perfectly blended wildness and kindness appeared in mid-air, and a soft voice appeared in everyone's ears.

Everyone couldn't help but bow down to her, because the other party was a true god incarnation - the Ranger and the forest goddess Merikai.

As her words fell, a massive pillar of light shot up from kilometers away, where the standing stone was, intertwined with the rising light of the conqueror's army.

In that moment, all the people of the conqueror's army felt some kind of connection with the forest, a sense of familiarity from the heart, as if they were in their own homeland.

The Valley Contract is of great significance to this goddess.

Before the Compact of the Valley, her teachings were skewed towards the forest and the wild.

It was only after the signing of the Valley Compact that she began to focus on the balance between forests and intelligent life.

To put it bluntly, there are many ways in her current teachings that are influenced by the Valley Compact.

The relationship between man and God is never one-sided.

God influences man, but man's development affects God's in turn.

The Ranger and the Goddess of the Forest only appeared as witnesses to the oath, and when the oath was made, her divine incarnation naturally collapsed into the heavens and the earth, and even some of them were integrated into the oath.

"The blessing of the Lady of the Forest, the Lady has recognized their vows! This happened only on the day of Tateishi, and we were fortunate enough to witness it. ”

"From now on, they are no longer immigrants, but part of the valley."

"Incredible, incredible, I didn't expect that I would be able to witness this sacred scene."

"It's a harbinger of our battle valley becoming great again, our valley rising again."

The valley people who witnessed this scene were more excited than the army of conquerors, many of whom were worshippers of rangers and forest goddesses, and their own goddess descended as witnesses, directly casting a layer of divine brilliance on the army of conquerors.

A godly testimony is more trustworthy and binding than a mere oath.

Gavin was accustomed to this situation.

Melicay's blessing was not based on the previous relationship between the two parties, but because what they did was indeed in line with her divine priesthood.

Before everyone could recover from the shock, Lord Ilmet announced another news that shocked everyone, "From today onwards, I appoint Gavin Noether as the acting Lord of Battle Valley, and take full charge of the affairs of Battle Valley on my behalf, and I will lead five hundred lord warriors deep into the Great Forest of Comantso to fully inspect the evil that is rising inside and ensure that they do not pose any threat to us." ”

"Lord Ilmet has really given up his position as lord."

"The realm of the lord's mind is incomparable to us."

"Your lord, as the legend says, doesn't value power."

Everyone was full of praise for the Lord of Ilmet, especially the people of the Battle Valley couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Because in doing so, a battle valley civil war was effectively averted.

Everyone knows that the acting lord is just a pretext, a transition, as long as Gavin doesn't do things that people and gods are angry about, within a few years, he will become the real lord of Battle Valley.

"Thank you, Lord Lord, I will definitely live up to the trust of Lord Lord, I will treat all the people of the valley equally, and lead them to build a new battle valley." Gavin did not politely excuse himself and accepted the appointment directly.

"It is because I believe that you have this ability, so I will appoint you as the acting lord, I believe that you must be more qualified than me and do better than me." Lord Ilmet applauded, "Regina will fully assist you, she knows many things in Battle Valley better than I do, and I look forward to your performance." ”

"Thank you, Lord Lord, for your trust." Once again, Gavin thanked him sincerely.

"After talking about the internal affairs of our Battle Valley, let's talk about the big things that involve the entire Valley." Lord Ilmet once again threaded the needle and said, "The governance of the Ashaba River is not a matter of one city and one valley, this is the common wish of countless people in the entire valley, since you are willing to provoke the main force, I believe many people are willing to join it." ”

"That's right, this matter is our share of the Deep Forest Valley." The Lord of the Deep Forest Valley, Celemen, was the first to speak.

"We, Feather Valley, are also willing to join in and do our best to assist the Lord in advancing this matter." Several representatives of the people in Lingyu Valley also reached a consensus.

"We're going to try to lobby more people in the Taser Valley to join." Grand Inquisitor of Walloon at the Hammer of Light Monastery.

Although he has a very high reputation in Tasserval, he is not a lord after all, and he cannot make some substantive decisions.

"Thank you for your trust, with your assistance, I have more confidence in this matter." Gavin said with a smile, "There are indeed many things that need the cooperation of local residents in this matter, why don't we sit down and discuss it in detail?" ”

"I can't ask for it."

"Okay."

The crowd answered.

Managing the Al Shaba River is definitely a smart move, not only to plan for the future, but also to gather the forces of other valleys around them for their own use, and they are motivated enough.

In particular, the four valleys of the Deep Forest Valley, the Taser Valley, the Battle Valley, and the Feather Valley are either located at the confluence of the three rivers or in the lower reaches of the Ashaba River, and are very affected by this river.

Especially for the first three, when the rainy season comes in Komanso, a large amount of river water gathers in the Yevon pond, which will cause the water level here to soar by more than ten meters in a short period of time, inundating many areas, especially in the deep forest valley.

But judging from the reaction of the lords of Celemen, they did not object to raising the water level of the pond in Yevon, which showed that the matter was more good than bad for them.

With the addition of new members, they have entered more in-depth consultations on the management of the Ashaba River, and those valleys that are more affected can start the diversion of personnel and preliminary preparations.

The governance of the Ashaba River was only an opportunity, and they negotiated a lot of things, and the cooperation project that Gavin had negotiated in the Misty Valley was also applicable to the other valleys, but the focus was different.

For example, the deep forest valley, which is separated by three rivers and two lakes, has very little arable land, and its inhabitants are mainly fishing and hunting.

The Feather Valley, on the other hand, is a large-scale cash crop, and the high-quality cotton they produce is famous throughout the valley.

The former is very interested in Stark bush cultivation and the cultivation of popping shrimp, while the latter has a strong need to join agricultural associations.

Gavin naturally has no reason to refuse, this kind of thing is originally that the more people who join and the wider the scope of promotion, the stronger the ability to resist risks.

Quietly, with the Battle Valley as the center, a new valley economic alliance is being established, and under the binding of interests, they are more closely connected than other valleys, and it is easier to advance and retreat together.

After the army of conquerors entered the Valley of Battles, it was another mode of doing things.

After coming out of the great forest of Comanso, they began to walk all the way, all the way to the roots.

The abandoned ghost castles, ghost manors, and villages in Battle Valley were naturally the first choice.

Since this place was once inhabited by humans, it means that the basic elements of human survival here are necessary and have their own value - otherwise no one will waste time and effort to pioneer here.

But it is abandoned because of irresistible factors, at least for ordinary people, it is irresistible.

This factor is more diverse.

There are really haunted ghosts like the Vizeme Manor, and evil and powerful ghosts haunt the area.

For such a location, it is Gavin's favorite, professional counterpart.

It doesn't matter if you're a ghost or a ghost, you don't need Gavin to do it himself, you just need those shadow wings with shadows to go out and drag them into the Vizeme Manor in minutes and turn them into free ghost labor here.

Gavin proved with reality that the most appropriate and easiest way to solve the undead incident is not the priests or holy warriors of the gods of light, but the sacrifices of the death-related gods, especially the immortal goddess of vengeance, who is in charge of the immortal priesthood.

But unfortunately, this lady of the dead followed the path of the dark gods, using fear and fear to create more immortal beings and gather faith for herself.

Instead of helping the sapient beings to solve the problem of the undead, her followers will actively promote it, creating undead creatures and spreading death everywhere.

Gavin, who doesn't have a strong need for the immortal priesthood, has no concerns about this.

For him, the Vizeme Manor, which has the immortal divinity, is a convenient tool for his rapid development, and it is really convenient and easy to use.

It can be used as a unique prison for its enemies, turning those imprisoned creatures into a part of its own power.

It can also be used as a convenient means of transportation for large-scale material transfer.

Now it is used to purify the undead, but it is the most professional way to use it.

Ironically, the Immortal Nemesis, who was bent on pursuing a powerful Goddess of Vengeance, was now weakened to the extreme, and even her own divine consciousness could not maintain its sobriety, and she fell into unprecedented weakness.

And Gavin, who didn't have much demand in this regard, grew wildly all the way, not only giving birth to the spark of immortal divinity, but the number of immortal divinity was as high as more than forty points.

Of these ghost castles, less than one in ten are truly abandoned because of ghosts.

More often than not, because of the lack of transportation and the presence of powerful monsters or bandits, it has become a lair of monsters and bandits.

These problems were also not a problem for the army of conquerors.

If you want to get rich, the concept of building roads first has been thoroughly penetrated into everyone's hearts along the way.

No matter where they settle down in the future, this will inevitably be the core and focus of their future development.

They had even helped widen and renovate the country roads in the Misty Valley, and when they arrived at their new home, how could they not go crazy to build the roads?

They will not only repair, but also overhaul and specialize.

Not only will the road from the Road of Rosavier lead to the Land of the Three Rivers, but the roads leading to the various ghost castles along the way will also be opened.

Judging from the newly surveyed map, the newly opened Three Rivers Highway is like a branch full of fruits, straight village roads, connecting abandoned manors, castles and villages that have been reactivated.

Dispatch inhabitants based on the value of these reopened castle estates - their size, the abundance of resources around them, their ease of reclamation, their value to the entire Battle Valley, and so on.

There are hundreds of people at least and thousands at most, all of which are left in the formation of 100 people.

When the conqueror's army began to hit the road, both the composition of these centurions and the captain were still unqualified.

However, after 3,500 kilometers of running-in and adjustment, we have already achieved both offensive and defensive capabilities, a rational layout, and the ability to carry out various and diverse tasks.

It is unlikely that they can deal with the same number of regular troops, relying on the car formation, it is no problem to deal with ordinary wilderness monsters several times their own, with the restoration and activation of those ghost castles, the main side will add some city defense facilities for them one after another, further improving their security index.

They all believed that this was just the beginning, and that as their lords grew stronger, their villages and towns would not only have more populations, but also better city defense facilities, and it was not an unattainable dream to have their own city defense fog barriers.

There are also a very small number of ghost castles, even the army of conquerors have to be cautious, not only did not send people to settle in, but directly isolated them, and set up observation and supervision posts to stay here for a long time.

These sites have one thing in common, that is, they have been abandoned because of the epidemic.

Even in a magical world, the devastating power of the plague is quite terrifying, especially for ordinary people.

Those fierce epidemics often bring down people in pieces before they can react.

Without investigating what kind of epidemic was originally obtained in those locations and abandoned, and whether the epidemic still remains, it is wisest to avoid it.

Anyway, the battle valley is large enough, even the size of the conqueror's army is only sparse, and the ghost castle within ten kilometers of Anwei New Road (Anka Manor-Vizeme Manor) can be activated.

To fully develop the Battle Valley, these populations alone are not enough.

By the time the conqueror's army arrived at the new village of Vizeme, the population had been cut in half, to only 21,000 men, but its own capacity had not been reduced much.

The terror-building capacity of the conqueror's army, with its large population base of ordinary people, plays only a small part of its role.

If it were manpower alone, let alone 50,000 people, even a million people would not be able to build 3,500 kilometers of roads in three months, let alone build cities and wars along the way.

Dominating this is the abundance of non-costly spell-like abilities, multi-racial coordination, and the use of magical magic.

Don't forget, there are also 20,000 dragon oak collar kobolds in Vizeme New Village, and the proportion of dragon veins among them is as high as a quarter, and the number of people who have opened careers is as high as half, which is the core team of Gavin Dragon Oaks.

These kobolds had arrived in the valley before the conqueror's army had set out on their journey, and when they arrived, they had only one thing to do – build a city.

The speed at which they built the city increased in a stepwise manner.

In the first month, they barely completed the sewerage work in the new village of Vizeme.

In the second month, they built only three five-story buildings.

In the third month, they not only completed fifteen five-story buildings, but even tripled the sewer project.

In the fourth month, more than 20 five-story buildings were erected.

The number of kobolds working on the construction has not increased, but the quality has changed dramatically, and when they first arrived in the valley, the data was less than one-tenth of what it is now.

In the process of construction, they have accumulated rich professional experience to strengthen themselves, although this life experience allows them to open most of the professions that are biased towards life experts, mechanics and the like, but the help is real, and Gavin's positioning for them is construction assistance.

The army of conquerors who arrived at their destination was shocked again, they did not expect that Gavin's original promise was not just a simple bragging, but that there was really a new, modern city waiting for them, and many things here once again broke their perceptions.

Water that can be sent directly to the top floor - not a collective water pipe, but each building has its own water tank on the roof, which uses magic to contaminate the water creation technique, which can continuously produce the purest water source, and each water tank produces enough water for the daily use of the whole building.

Excreta can be disposed of directly in the building and washed away with water.

Each building has its own large canteen, where they cook and serve food collectively – for a short period of time, their food will be supplied collectively.

The whole city is warm in winter and cool in summer, thanks to Hui Fengzhu, where the temperature is kept at the most comfortable temperature for humanoids.

The only flaw is that the number of buildings is too small, and the number of them is too large, if all the people are occupied, the average number of people will be more than 20 people crammed into a room of only 80 or 90 square meters.

Even so, everyone is satisfied, at least it is much better than sleeping in the wilderness, and everyone knows that the current situation is only temporary, as long as they give their lords a little time, the same buildings will spring up like mushrooms after a rain, and at that time, even a family is not an unattainable dream.
