Wizard Lords: Building an Empire starts from the panel

“My Lords, I stand here today to make an important proposal to Parliament.

In the last battle to defend the Orc invasion, Baron Monterey used extraordinary courage and wisdom to perform extraordinary feats and brought supreme glory to the kingdom. His heroic deeds have spread throughout the kingdom and he has become a hero in the hearts of countless people.

When the friendly forces were trapped on Mount Duolun, Baron Monterey defeated all enemy forces with two hundred and five thousand, and together with Viscount Ome, he strangled a Sunshine-level werewolf."

Earl Langton's voice was deep and powerful, and every word echoed clearly in the hall. Levi, who was sitting low-key in the audience, was also a little surprised. He did not remember that he had any interaction with this Earl of Langton.

“When the kingdom was faced with difficulties in logistical supplies, Baron Monterey presented the Roja medicine production process, which saved the kingdom millions of gold coins in food loss.

When our army was in a stalemate with the enemy, and the orcs sent elite forces to sneak into the rear to attack our food road, Baron Monterey anticipated the enemy's advance and surrounded and killed the enemy's elite first, stabilizing the rear food road.

When an army of more than 200,000 orcs arrived at the Snow Dragon Fortress, Baron Monterey went deep into the Evernight Forest alone and harassed the orcs' food routes, causing heavy losses to the orcs."

At this time, Marquis Ashan, who was sitting in the main seat, frowned. Earl Langton behaved a little strangely. He initially judged that maybe the royal family was using Earl Langton to kill Levi, but what's the use of it? ?

"During this period, Baron Monterey crossed the Orin River four times, manipulated the pursuers several times his own, and successfully waited for an opportunity to annihilate the main force of three thousand orc cavalry.

Afterwards, Baron Monterey cleverly mobilized the beast tide and successively destroyed two core strongholds on the orc food route, annihilating over 10,000 orcs in total.

Then, Baron Monterey took advantage of the orcs' unpreparedness and attacked Moki Port, the logistics center of the orcs. He burned countless transport ships and calmly destroyed the orcs' 10,000-ton warehouse while surrounded by the orc army.

Baron Monterey became more and more courageous as he fought. He set up ambushes on several orc grain-carrying fleets on the Kensei River many times, and counterattacked under the siege of six sun-class orcs headed by the orc crown prince Westhead and hundreds of blood lion guards. Dozens of blood lion guards and a Sun-level Elephant Man.

The deeds I listed above are only part of Baron Monterey's fight against the orcs. Based on Baron Monterey's repeated victories and contribution to the overall situation, he should be granted at least three viscounties and eight baronies."

The nobles who were well-informed and knew that Li Wei already had two barons suddenly became suspicious.

"Therefore, I think that Baron Monterey's merits are enough for him to obtain a higher honor. Since Baron Monterey itself owns two baronies, according to the May 1st Promotion Law, Baron Monterey should be directly promoted to earl! "

Amid the uproar, Earl Langton straightened his collar slightly and walked off the stage as if nothing had happened.

At this time, Levi was completely confused.

Why is it an earl?

In his previous conversation with Marquis Ashan, he already had a rough idea of ​​his promotion. This time, Li Wei would get at least four viscounties, and perhaps one or two baronies at most, but it was absolutely impossible to achieve it in one step. The threshold of nobility became an earl.

But it happened that Earl Langton, a real nobleman who had almost nothing to do with him, actually made a serious proposal to promote himself to earl.

Showing courtesy for nothing, committing adultery or stealing, what Earl Langton did made Levi feel inexplicably guilty.

Unlike the small and medium-sized nobles who had completely exploded, the more than 20 representatives of the large nobles on the main seat had their eyes flickering and they didn't know what they were thinking.

It has been more than a month since the last time Marquis Ashan announced the strong return of Phoenix Fili in an emergency closed-door meeting, and relevant information has gradually been dug out by these real big shots.

Among them, the great nobles are completely elusive about the relationship between Baron Monterey and Phoenix Philly, but one thing is clear, the relationship between Baron Monterey and Phoenix Philly is definitely not simple.

You know, on the evening when Marquis Ashan flew to the royal capital in an alchemical airship, he took Li Wei to visit Schonbrunn Palace and had a secret conversation with Clovis I.

Early the next morning, a closed-door meeting about Phoenix Feili was held.

Therefore, even though the Marquis of Ashan deliberately concealed Levi's existence and did not bring the Baron Monterey to the closed-door meeting, one month was still enough for everyone to discover something.

As a branch of the royal family hundreds of years ago, the Langton family has always been the mouthpiece of the royal family to euphemistically express their stance. Therefore, in the eyes of the great nobles, Earl Langton's "illegal proposal" just now was that the royal family was trying to please Li Wei, or that it was indirectly trying to please Feili, the Phoenix behind Li Wei.

Several nobles have already looked at the Marquis of Ashan intentionally or unintentionally. Baron Monterey is recognized as a vassal of the Marquis of Ashan. The royal family is obviously suspected of poaching by doing this.

Marquis Ashan still looked calm and calm on the surface, but no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.

But this approach was a bit too rough. The old King Clovis I was not such a casual and rough person.

The royal family has white gloves, and the nobles naturally also have white gloves. So, under the instruction of a certain big noble, a viscount stood up and fulfilled his rights as a middle-level noble.

"Earl Langton, I have objections to your previous proposal!"

The sudden and loud voice echoed in the hall, and the scene suddenly became quiet. The nobles who had been talking about this "illegal proposal" and even directly expressed their dissatisfaction all looked at Viscount Zorn who stood up to speak.

Viscount Zorn straightened his collar, cleared his throat, and said calmly:

"Earl Langton, not to mention the value of Baron Monterey's so-called 'war exploits', this war is only a defensive war, not a pioneering war. In order to ensure that there is enough free land, the kingdom has always been cautious about the nobility of defensive wars.

Taking a step back, the kingdom now has 22 border counties, and each border county already has a large noble family. Where can there be any free space to accommodate the Earl of Monterey? ', so I don't agree with your proposal. "

After saying that, Viscount Zorn sat down expressionlessly, as if doing a routine.

Many nobles at the scene began to make noises. Most people felt that Earl Langton's proposal was unreasonable. Viscount Zorn was indeed telling the truth. There was no room in the kingdom for another Earl.

However, Earl Langton showed no concern for these waves of opposition. Just now he was just entrusted to complete a small task, and this matter will no longer be under his control.
