Heaven’s Intention

Chapter 303 Asking for Support (Part 1)

With a lot of people and a lot of strength, a spacious room was cleared out. It soon became Romon's temporary residence.

The floor had already been cleaned, and the pirate prisoners scrambled to mop the floor in order to survive, so that the wood on the floor was bright and the furniture was brand new.

Originally, even after cleaning, there would still be a bad smell that hadn't been inhabited for a long time, but this is Romon's strength. With a little use of natural power, suddenly, the breath of the forest after the rain emerged, filling the whole room.

Of course, it is temporary after all, and the furnishings are simple.

There is a long table and a few chairs outside, and the room inside is a bed and a desk.

Outside, holy light waves flashed from time to time. This was Pastor Pajinla healing his own staff.

Luo Meng took a rest, and at this moment, there was a weak meow.

Hey, Romon is free. After a quick glance, there was an extra black cat in the corner. This black cat was as thin as a stick. It was obviously a cat raised by some family. It lost its owner after a catastrophe. It's gone.

Seeing that Romon noticed it, the black cat called meow again, quite sadly, trying to beg Romon for some food.

On Earth, Romon had been caught by cats before, and he was paid hundreds of dollars, but he still liked cats very much. He took two bowls, one with water and one with sausages.

These two bowls, as soon as they appeared, were the eyes of a black cat. All of a sudden it widened.

It straightened up, and with a meow at Romon, it staggered up and pounced on it.

While the cat was devouring, Romon watched carefully. It was very thin, its spine could be seen clearly, and there were many bloodstains on it, probably the result of fighting with other wild cats or animals.

There are fleas and the like on it.

There was still a while before the report outside, Romon stretched out his hand, a natural force immediately enveloped the black cat, the fleas on the black cat rushed out frantically, and left the cat's body, there were literally hundreds of them. People are creepy.

After the water and intestines were fed, the black cat came up obediently, sniffing Romon's scent, and rubbed its head against Romon's leg!

Romun is not a feral druid.

But since he is a Druid, he still has the power to communicate with animals. On a whim, Romon's hand flashed a green light, and he established a model for talking with animals.

A vague feeling made Romon feel its flattery and sorrow, which came along with the sound of meow, and it was impossible to specifically say Master, please take care of me.

The animal communication in the novels on the earth in the previous life is completely nonsense. Even in the case of this kind of magical communication, animals can't speak, and can only express certain meanings.

Being able to speak means that animals have begun to evolve to human-like intelligence.

If a cat can talk like this, then this cat is not a mortal cat. Romon shook his head with a smile, stretched out his hand to its neck, and scratched it gently. The black cat twitched all over. The comfortable kitten is acting like a baby, and it is touched by the long-lost warmth and sense of security.

Romon felt it's slight whimper, and was surprised for a moment.

But at this time, there was a knock on the outer door: My lord!

Come in! Romon withdrew his hand and said.

After a while, both Sukar and Pastor Pakinla stepped forward, entered, and saluted.

My lord, our personnel have basically been treated, and the captives and wealth have been counted. Sukar reported and handed over a few sheets of recording paper.

Very good, what's the exact number? Romon took it and said casually.

At this time, Sukar looked at Pastor Pakinla, who was responsible for the statistics. In other words, in this world, only those priests, mages, and nobles specialize in literacy and records. It is good that ordinary mercenaries can understand the announcements. up.

My lord, after counting, there are always thirty-nine pirates who captured men, and eleven of them were seriously injured. Pastor Pakinla reported, and paused: It's very cold now. Is it okay to be outside?

Romon looked outside, outside the glass window, it was noon, it was the sunniest time of the day, but at this time. The sky was gloomy again, small snowflakes were falling, and the temperature dropped suddenly.

Get some rooms to detain them separately, give basic treatment to the injured, get them some food, don't let them die, and interrogate them about the current situation of the ocean.

Yes, my lord.

Seeing that Romon had nothing to say, Pastor Pakinla continued to report: Find 5,641 silver coins, and find 3,111 gold coins. There are also some jewelry, and a half warehouse of grain, spirits Twenty-one barrels, and some weapons.

Very good, Sukar, I promise you the reward. This time I have all of them. It was originally 7,220 silver coins. This time I also have merit. It has been increased to 9,000. I will distribute them all. There are not enough silver coins. Fill it up. Romon waved his hand: Also, Pastor Pakinla, the gold coins promised to you have also increased to 800 in total, so you can figure out how much you have left.

Yes, there are 1,975 gold coins. Pastor Pakinla immediately calculated and reported.

My lord, there is also a bounty for the Erno team. Sukar reminded, and he reported the process: Finally, it is about nine hundred silver coins.

This victory, they did a good job, count it as a thousand, you go back, after the bounty is distributed, tell them, ask them if they would like to move their family to this town, if so, I will appoint El Nuo is the captain of the town. Luo Meng said flatly: If you like, I will move the population here after the New Year, if you don't want to, forget it.

Although manpower is needed, it is not too embarrassing. Besides, Romon already has a new idea in his heart: By the way, you call that pirate named Kebi.

do not know why. Romon is very interested in him.

After a while, the cold and blue pirate came in, and as soon as he came in, he knelt down on the ground with a very spineless pounce and shouted: My lord, you fell from the sky, so mighty, I can't compare to you! I am willing to surrender to you, please accept me as a servant!

Luo Meng was taken aback, it was the first time he met this person who was subdued by his bad spirit and asked for support, he couldn't help laughing.

This man is really interesting.

But after laughing, Romon's eyes were cold, and he picked up the cup to drink tea.

But the pirates lowered their waists, and cold sweat oozes out.

After a while, Romon asked, Which pirate group do you belong to, and why are you here?

My lord, we belong to Captain Kajuta.

Captain Kajuta?

Romon seemed to have heard about it, a pirate who was a bit famous nearby, he sneered: Where's Captain Kajuta?

Dead, I was shot just now. The pirate murmured.

Dead? Then tell me, how is the situation at sea? Who is the strongest?

Captain Kajuta is one of the nearby pirate groups, but he is not the strongest. The strongest is Vardenwen. He is going to be the pirate king now, and he is trying to annex other fleets!

Wadenwen, I've heard of it, a very young pirate captain, but he wants to be the Pirate King? Romon couldn't help but sneer.

There are more than a dozen of these pirates, large and small, in the coastal area. Under normal circumstances, these pirate groups live in peace with each other, and their nests are set in the islands lined with rocks.

In this world, it is not easy to become a Pirate King, at least one sea area must be annexed, and only an undefeated pirate leader can be called a Pirate King. This guy has great ambitions!

Yes, everyone laughed at the beginning, but Waddenwen is said to have the strength of an eighth-level fighter, and he has continuously annexed other pirates. Even our captain has received a letter and a token?

Oh? Letters and tokens? Romon became interested for a moment, and said, Where are they now?

These are all kept by Captain Kajuta next to his body. Although he is dead, there must be some on his body. I will find them for my lord.

Okay, let's go! Romon's attitude towards this person changed a bit.

To go to sea, you must have skilled sailors. Although these pirates are pirates, it is undeniable that these people are top-notch sailors, and Romon suddenly thought about it.

This is like the pirate who went out and came back after not much time. He said humbly, My lord, I found it.

A letter was already smeared with blood, and I couldn't see what it was. Romon frowned, barely recognized it, and found that there were indeed words like ...unification...hegemony...Pirate King on it. He sneered, but At this moment, a word fell into his eyes - Iron Throne!

After careful identification, there was a word glory behind it, the glory of the Iron King's seat. Romon's face changed slightly as he thought about the meaning.

Without saying anything, he took the token, which was an iron ship with a crown on it.

It was nothing at all, but it was a bit reminiscent of being connected with the Iron Throne, but at this moment, the door knocked, and it was Erno and Sukar who came in.

Baron Tetashaw, Erno is willing to serve you! Erno stepped forward and bowed.

Although it is not a privilege to be the captain of the Baron's town, it is also a rare opportunity, and this appreciation should not be let go.

Becoming a baron, with great power in his hands, and a wide territory, he is indeed successful in arrogance. With a little appreciation, there will be a lot of people asking for support. Romon deeply understands the existence of arrogance and how to get it.

Thinking to myself, if on earth, a mayor appreciates him, he will be flattered, so go forward and ask for support immediately!

The most painful thing for most people is that they can't get it when they ask for support.

Erno, from now on, you will be the team leader of my town. According to my establishment, the number of people including you is eleven. You can neither expand the number at will, nor reduce the number of people. At the beginning of each month, the salary is paid regularly. If there are meritorious deeds, reward the land and accumulate, understand? Luo Meng said.

Yes, my lord, we all understand. Erno's expression became more docile.

Since you are all my citizens, let's just say it. I will demolish all of this town, whether it is a house or a dock. I will ask the scholars in the city to cooperate and re-plan it to turn it into a prosperous and prosperous place. A port with room for development. Romon seemed to have forgotten that he was comparable to a pirate, and said, There are only a few days left before the Chinese New Year this year, three days after the New Year, I will move people to build, you have to work hard.

Seeing that the two of them bowed their heads, it should be true. At this time, Luo Meng had already smelled the fragrance, and said: You go out first, I will come out later.

Yes! The two backed out.

At this time, the Kobi pirate was dumbfounded and looked at Romon: Are you Baron Tetashaw?

A lord with hundreds of square kilometers of private ownership is definitely more powerful than a county magistrate (secretary of the county party committee) on the earth. Why, although a county has thousands or even two thousand square kilometers, these are not privately owned by them.

He owns hundreds of square kilometers of land, and his strength and power are extraordinary. It was the first time for a pirate to see such a high-level hereditary nobleman. Suddenly, he shouted loudly: Lord Baron, I beg you to accept me. This servant!

It's not okay for me to accept you as a servant. I want to build a fleet now, do you have the ability to take care of it? Romon said with a sneer, Be a captain first, let me see you the ability.

I'm the captain? Kebi Pirate was taken aback. Although he had been on the ship for seven or eight years, he had never been a third officer.

Why, no ability? Then why are you my servant?

My lord baron, as long as you support me, I can be the captain! After much deliberation, the thought of becoming rich and honored by taking refuge in a baron filled my heart: I know that some of the captives will not convince you...they It's a scourge for you.

Huh, this pirate is really interesting, Romon nodded and said: Okay, I will give you the right to take the life and death of the pirate captives, and let you be the captain of the pirate captives first, and after the New Year you will choose someone, Just give you a boat!

Speaking of this, he sneered: Don't think that you can escape if you leave the sea. If I chase you down, you won't be able to escape.

Kebi nodded stiffly when he thought of the eagle falling from the sky and the fireball he saw coming down.

Romon laughed and said, In this case, you should go out and have dinner with us too. Now, you are my servant!

After walking out of the room, the long table outside was already full of food.

Most of it was pirate food, and all kinds of food were put on it.

The long table is very long, and those who can participate in the banquet are all above the team leader. Of course, adventurers who participate for the first time also get the only privilege. All can participate. Although it is a bit crowded, they can still sit down. Romon automatically He sat in the first place, and below that, Sukar and Pastor Pakinla took second place, and below that was Captain Erno.

Below Erno, there are the three captains of the cavalry team, and the adventurers. The only thing that surprises everyone is that the one who was still a prisoner just now has a position, even if it is the last one. What does this mean? Everyone knows.

Everyone has worked hard. Romon said, toasted and started the banquet.

At the banquet, bread, cheese, barbecue, and spirits were the favorites of pirates, as well as mercenaries and ordinary soldiers. Besides, since the battle, everyone was hungry. After a little humility, they would gobble it up.

After the banquet and the orders, Romon finished one more thing...

When he went out, he couldn't help squinting his eyes.

The snow was getting bigger and bigger, and it filled the sky for a while.

The streets, houses, and city walls are all covered with a thick layer of snow.

The trees that have lost their leaves are covered with fluffy snowflakes. When a gust of wind blows, the branches shake gently, and the snowflakes fall down.

The snowflakes are getting denser and denser, scattered endlessly in the empty towel. A fresh world is vaguely reflected. Snowflakes use the power of nature to cover everything in it.

Lomonds broke the record just now.

This is a very short battle, and it is also a battle with great disparity in strength.

One side is the cavalry regular army who are best at land attack warfare, and the other side is the loose pirates who are good at water warfare.

In fact, according to Jiang Shu, there are hundreds of pirates on the pirate side, and only thirty-five on the Romon side, which can be said to be about one-third.

However, although the difference in strength between the two sides was too great, the victory and defeat were quickly divided, but it was the riding and archery that accounted for the vast majority of the advantages.

Our side was almost completely victorious. Except for some minor injuries, there were not even one seriously injured, let alone such a serious matter as sacrificing one's life for the baron.

After the battle, even Sukar, the leader, didn't expect the battle to go so smoothly at first, and even he was a little surprised by the powerful force of this cavalry team in this attack.

All of this is due to the cooperation of Sukar's career change and Romon's erroneous cooperation.

After many battles, he gained a lot of experience in guerrilla warfare, so Romon made great reforms especially for the cavalry.

The most important thing is that they have used some brains on weapons for the cavalry's charge and strength.

This time, he used the materials uniformly, and prepared a machete for each of his cavalry, which was sharp and small, and it was more labor-saving and smooth when rushing and slashing people on the battlefield.

Of course, the most important thing is riding and shooting. For this legendary skill, under the training of Sukar, a fourth-level shooter, it was finally realized. After practicing, I often urged Sukar to pull the team out to fight guerrilla warfare.

The training effect of guerrilla warfare was finally brought into play in this battle.

This is different from their hunting of little devils. Hunting and killing little devils requires patience, carefulness, observation and tracking skills, but this duel with pirates depends on one's own true strength.

The power of the cavalry is really exerted, can it be so strong? Can the battle be ended so quickly? With dozens of people, the pirates who severely injured hundreds of people, this can be regarded as a good record.

Looking at the rapidly ending battlefield in front of him, Romon felt a little emotional. The next step is to strengthen Sukar's cavalry team?

It would be great if there were two or even three cavalry and archery squadrons. Of course, the premise was that Sukar must become a fifth-level archer.

However, horses and manpower are scarce now, how can I get them three

Romon was thinking about it, when Sukar came up: My lord, it's snowing too much, why do you want to go?

Leave later, there is still Jayfa's matter, talk to him in depth before the new year! Romon said, paused, and asked again: What did you say to Erno just now? He just agreed?

My lord, you don't know that the city has just gone through a great war, and the adventurers were forced to recruit and took on the frontline charge. It is said that more than half of the people died in this battle. Moreover, the post-war pension is very important. Meager, Erno is already considered a great captain, but he also feels that his future is bleak, so as soon as he was recruited, he agreed immediately.

Oh? Romon didn't think of this.

My lord, don't you need manpower? I think it's better to recruit adventurers than ordinary citizens. The advantage of recruiting adventurers is that they are all capable of fighting and have quite a lot of combat experience. A little practice Very good soldiers, besides, the adventurers in the city are all experienced fighters who have just survived the bloody battle, and now the adventurers are in a trance, it is the right time. Sukal said.

After saying this sentence, Romon was really surprised, and his feelings for Sukar immediately went up to a higher level.

This was something he didn't expect, he pondered for a while, and said, But mercenaries have many bad habits.

According to Luo Meng, it is a soldier ruffian.

My lord, this can be removed by memorizing and practicing. Besides, even if it is really inappropriate, kicking out the team and letting them serve as militiamen, patrolling the village while farming, is fine. At least guard the town wall and patrol around the village. It is qualified. Sukar said: For the night watch, pass it on to the leaders, rise with the sun, work and rest at sunset, go to the night watch, it is better to use them.

Romon's heart brightened. Originally, he was still worried about the candidate for the mayor of this port town. Now the manpower is scarce, but with Sukar's insight, the temporary mayor can be appointed.

Moreover, Sukar's opinion made him think of a layer.

The most important thing now is human resources. Human resources are fixed, and they ebb and flow. If you recruit one more adventurer, the other nobles will recruit one less soldier, and the combat power will be two soldiers behind. His nobles are all competitors, so we must pay attention to this.

Moreover, in the peaceful era, nobles don’t need and look down on mercenaries at all, but from time to time, when recruiting soldiers in troubled times, they must pay attention to one and go first. As for the discipline is not high enough, they can only make do with it. .

Even crippled adventurers are useful. They have families anyway, and they are also men. Moving here can increase the population. After a few years, when the children grow up, the population will increase.

If you don't take advantage of this moment, the nobles haven't changed their minds yet, so when will they wait?

Romon was overjoyed immediately.

To do things, you must act vigorously, and Suimeng immediately issued the order Sukal!

exist!

I call this town Yuanhang Town, and you are the mayor!

Yes, my lord! Surprised and delighted, Su Kaal replied in a tricky manner.

Also, your idea is good. You were originally a mercenary, you know the market, and you bring Ernor with you to attract people from the adventurers in the city! Romon sneered and adopted the method on Earth.

The specific method is that the captain who brings the old family to defect will be rewarded with 20 acres of permanent land and the status of a free citizen. If he can make up to eight candidates, he will be the captain of the team. Go up. Households, ten acres of land will be rewarded to the introducer, and if the total number of people recruited is one hundred households, I will reward them with the status of retinue.

Su Kaal couldn't help being dumbfounded, although he also wanted to pull people from Lian, he didn't expect Romon to do this.

Why, can it be done?

Yes, of course! Su Kaal shouted. Now the adventurers are panicking. If this condition is met, they may attract hundreds of people, each of whom has a family. The reward is too rich.

Since that's the case, go! Romon said. At this moment, the black cat came out of nowhere and jumped at Romon's feet. Romon was in a good mood at the moment, so he laughed and hugged him: I'm still here. Something to do, let's go! You can figure it out yourself!

As he spoke, he yelled, and the lightning flew down. Romon got on the eagle, and flew up.

When it reached the sky, it was out of sight, so Romon threw the lucky black cat into the space of Shennong's feet.

It only takes half an hour for the cliff eagle to fly into the sky, spread its wings and break through the clouds, and reach the forest home.

Arriving at the Forest House, Romon stopped directly in front of the original temple and now the alchemy hall.

My lord! There were guards saluting, and Romon nodded to return the salute. Go in, as expected, there is no one in the hall! Come to the mechanism, open the mechanism, and go to the basement inside.

This is a space of thousands of square meters, and there is more than one.

There is a lamp on the ceiling, inlaid with glass, and the sun shines from the center, illuminating the whole hall like daytime

The floor was covered with magic runes, all of which emitted a faint light and were running quietly.

The natural altar exudes the breath of life, with overlapping mud beds and neatly arranged seedlings all rising from the ground, emerald green.

Spring is full, and a warmth rushes towards the face. The space is not as depressed as imagined, on the contrary, a fresh fragrance fills it. Romon watched all this, and soon saw the person he wanted to see.

Mr. Jiefa, Miss Wei Wan! Luo Meng greeted first.

Jiefa was observing the situation on the mud bed, but Miss Wei Wan had also reached the third level and became a big girl. However, she still held grudges, and when she saw Romon, she hummed twice.

Romon, the closed field natural greenhouse in this underground space is good, it can be used to cultivate some rare plant seeds! Jiefa smiled and said: Also, there are three similar underground spaces nearby, all of which can be used .”

Then you can use it. I am here this time to formally invite you, Baju Forest House. Romon said, And I signed an agreement with you on the underground greenhouse.

Oh, tell me. For some reason, Jayfa seemed to be easy to talk, and after a little thought, he agreed.

First of all, in the territory, you will be given the title of agricultural consultant, with an annual salary of one thousand silver coins.

Secondly, I will give you a small villa at the Forest House. Even if you don't want it, you can give it to Miss Wei Wan! Luo Meng said, Miss Wei Wan is almost 20, and she needs to get married. Live in a log cabin in the wild!

Miss Wei Wan snorted and said, I don't want anything from you, a bastard.

Jeffa's heart moved, and he understood what Romon meant.

Finally, I'm already a baron. For this, the underground greenhouse will be difficult to take care of. You can use it as a small part. You can get 30% of the output value, okay? Romon ignored Wei Wan's snort, and said to Jiefa with.

Jaffa was thoughtful, and suddenly asked: Romon, I feel that your strength is full, when will you break through to the seventh level?

Probably next year! Romon was taken aback, not knowing why the topic suddenly changed to this.

It's so fast, I hope you will always be able to stick to your employment on the right path, I agree. Jaffa said meaningfully, his eyes made Romon frown.

Unexpectedly, the last chapter is also a harmonious word, change it
