Lord of Plenty
Chapter 34 This is the Land of Plenty
"Sister Nia, the moon is very round today. It's hard to see such a clear moon in the capital."
"It's okay. Isn't it like this every day?"
"Sister Nia, do you have anything you like? I brought a lot of fun things from the capital. I'll take you to see them if I have a chance?"
"Not interested."
At the entrance of the Jade Heart Village, the two people on duty were talking in a low voice. One was making small talk, and the other was just perfunctory.
Although there was a scar on the corner of her mouth, Nia looked good, and there was a wildness that was rarely seen in women, like an elegant and dangerous leopard.
In the past, there were many teenagers in the Jade Heart who liked her. Now there are more people in the village, and there are more and more people who like Nia. They are all excellent young people who are the entry-level warriors in the guard group.
But Nia doesn't like anyone. She is not interested in those who are weaker than her now and those who will be weaker than her in the future.
In the dark night in the distance, a few sparks suddenly appeared in the distance, which immediately attracted Nia's attention.
"Be alert!"
Although she has become a beginner warrior, Nia still can't see clearly in the dark and far away. According to the pharmacist, Grandma Grace, she suffered from night blindness due to malnutrition. As long as she takes those unpalatable potions on time and eats more fish, meat, liver and other foods, she will get better after a while. In fact, her eyes are much better now than before.
As the firelight got closer and closer, Nia had sent a signal. The security team in the village must be on the way.
"It's Lord Dawn."
With the surprised shout of the soldier on duty beside her, Nia, who could only see a large group of blurry figures approaching, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They are finally back.
"But the number of people seems a bit wrong? There are many more than when they left in the morning. Hey, who are those guys who followed Lord Dawn in a mess?"
"No, they seem to be running for their lives. Something is chasing them. Nia, hurry up, send a signal!"
As a low-level magic scroll was torn open, a hazy white light ball flew up to the sky, and then exploded with a bang, accompanied by a piercing buzzing sound, and the night sky of the Emerald Heart instantly turned into daylight.
At the moment the magic light ball exploded, Kun, who was originally lying on the bed to rest, immediately opened his eyes. The early warning scrolls assigned to the guards and the security team were drawn by him, and he was too familiar with any magic effects.
Picking up a piece of clothing and putting it on, Kun stood by the window.
"Enemy attack, white? The alert level is not high, that is monster harassment?"
"Dong Dong Dong~"
Old Taylor's voice sounded outside the door, "Master, the news from the security team is that Dawn and his team are back, but it seems that they have brought back some troubles. There are monsters chasing them."
"Monsters? Then let the security team handle it. It's a good opportunity to see their ability to respond. After the matter is handled, let Dawn come to the reception room of the castle. I'll wait for him to report today's situation there."
"Yes, I'll go and notify them."
Kun stood by the window and looked at the direction of the village entrance, without any intention of helping.
Although the lord has the obligation to ensure the safety of the residents in the territory, the lord's job does not include wearing armor and fighting monsters, although he has the ability to do so and can easily solve those troubles.
But if he, the lord, has to solve everything himself, then what is he doing with so much money and high salaries to hire these people? Just for decoration?
Besides, asking a lord to fight on the front line is the greatest insult to his subordinates. It represents the incompetence of his subordinates. They are no longer able to ensure the safety of the lord and need to gamble with the lord's life.
Peasants have their own work, soldiers have their own work, and lords have their own work. As the lord of Fengrao Territory, when encountering a critical situation, what Kun has to do is not to rush to the front line to fight, but to stay in Fengrao Territory.
As long as he, the lord, is still there, Fengrao Territory will not be in chaos, the farmers will not flee, and the soldiers will fight. This is the rule of war on the Yongxu Continent.
In fact, the main reason why Kun can be so calm is that he did not feel any super high magic fluctuations. Although he is a little puzzled as to why such a low magic fluctuation would chase Dawn and his guards all over the world, but as long as he waits a little longer, I think everything will be clear.
Too lazy to put on clothes, Kun walked slowly to the reception room on the first floor in a white gold-patterned pajamas and a coat. The castle was already brilliant, with cypress candles and magic stone lamps all lit up. The servants shuttled quickly in the castle. When they met Kun, they simply bowed and left immediately, without any panic. Everything was in order.
This is the rule of servants in the noble families. They are not peasant women or bought slaves. They are servants trained and educated by the family from generation to generation. In terms of education, they are better than the daughters of small noble families. These servants have been attached to the Alan family for generations. No matter how the outside world changes, as long as the Alan family still exists and is still glorious, the Alan family will always protect them.
His footsteps stagnated. It was estimated that the security team would not be able to deal with those monsters for a while. Kun was a little hungry, so he turned to the direction of the kitchen.
In the kitchen of Blackstone Castle, behind the stove, Mrs. Marry was holding a frying pan and hugging the little cook, Sharan.
"Mrs. Marry, I, I, I'm scared. Do you think monsters eat people?"
"Don't be afraid, the lord will protect us. Our lord is a mage. You know, a mage can burn any monster to ashes with a fireball."
"But I, but I'm still afraid."
The trembling little cook, Sharan, who has never seen a big beast in her life, was scared to death when she thought of those terrible legends about monsters.
"I'm not good at fireball magic. I can't kill a monster with a fireball. But if it's the magic I improved, it's pretty easy to kill a monster with first-level magic."
Normal first-level magic will only knock off the skin when it hits a first-level monster, but Kun is different. He can pry fifty times the power of the law. What does this mean? The first-level magic Kun can play the power of the third level, but the consumption is still at the first level. Kun's exploration of the magic is enough to make those old guys in the capital kneel down and call him grandpa.
Kun's voice suddenly rang in their ears, startling them. When they saw who was coming, they immediately ran out from behind the stove.
"Master."
"Master, Master."
The little cook, Sharan, blushed. It was the first time she had spoken to Master Kun since she was a child.
"Mrs. Mary, I'm a little hungry. Give me something to eat. Anything ready-made will do."
"White bread with ready-made bacon, tear it into pieces, sprinkle some chili powder on it, make a sandwich, and give you a glass of honey ice fruit wine. What do you think?"
"Good, let's do it."
"I'll ask Sharan to send it to your room later?"
"No, I'll take it directly. I have to go to the conference hall to see our sheriff and ask him what fun things happened today and why he came back so late."
"Then please wait a moment."
Because they were all ready-made things, Mrs. Mary cooked them quickly. Kun took the fruit wine and the plate and left.
"The Lord is carrying the dishes himself."
The little cook, Sharan, was a little confused. Is this what a normal noble is like?
"Haha, of course not all nobles are young masters. Young masters are the best young masters. Hey, you don't stutter anymore. Aren't you afraid of monsters rushing in and biting off your arms and legs?"
"Hehe, it seems that after talking to the Lord for a few words, you are not afraid of any monsters. The Lord's eyes are really beautiful, golden, as if glowing, giving people a sense of security."
"Don't smile foolishly, clean up the kitchen quickly, and I will teach you another one of my specialties tomorrow. The young master likes it very much."
"Okay, I will definitely learn it seriously."
Mrs. Mary, who once had a daughter who died young, touched Sharan's head with a silly smile on her face. She really liked this little girl and treated her as her own daughter.
There was a chaotic battle in front of the gate of the Emerald Heart. After successfully receiving Dawn and his party, the security team immediately closed the gate of the village, but the green dragon iguanas that were chasing them did not give up. Seven green dragon iguanas gathered together and began to try to break through the defense of the village.
The green dragon iguanas are magical beasts that live in forests and jungles and are good at climbing. In their eyes, the wooden fence surrounding the Emerald Heart is no different from not being fenced off.
Fortunately, Kun had ordered the defense of the Emerald Heart to be strengthened and some traps were set up around it. The green dragon iguanas did not break through the defense of the village in the first place. Instead, with the cooperation of those traps, they were surrounded by the security team and the guards and divided into seven battle groups.
Never underestimate the first-level magic beasts. Normal first-level magic beasts are stronger than human first-level warriors, both in terms of strength and magic power. Generally, only three to five warriors of the same level can barely deal with a magic beast of the same level.
If you want to kill the monster without casualties, you have to double the number of people. The green dragon iguana is still a dragonborn. Although it is the lowest level and the most complicated dragonborn, it is stronger than ordinary monsters.
Only these elite warriors in the Kun Guard, plus Dawn presiding over the battle, can prevent it from collapsing at the first touch.
"Be careful!"
Nia pushed her teammates away with one hand to save them from being drenched in acid rain. She swung a sword with her backhand. The red and gorgeous fighting spirit flashed by, as fast as a meteorite and as beautiful as the sunset. The green dragon iguana roared in pain, and one of its eyes had been cut and bleeding.
"Good opportunity, let's go."
Dawn only took a look at the battle situation on Nia's side and retracted his gaze, focusing more on the battle situation elsewhere.
Very good, worthy of being his favorite disciple, in just over a month, he was able to use the notoriously difficult "Flowing Fire and Falling Stars" to such a proficient level, and his talent in fighting spirit is probably twenty blocks ahead of his own lord.
Yes, the kind of Kingdom Street.
The advantage of Warcraft lies in its strong strength and abundant magic power, while the advantage of human warriors lies in teamwork and unity. When the two are equal, it depends on who will reveal the flaw first and faster. With Dawn, a great warrior, and the demon instructor supervising the battle, who dares to make a mistake? Don't you want to die?
As the first green dragon iguana was killed, the balance of victory began to tilt towards the side of the Plenty Territory. Half an hour later, the battle ended, all the Warcraft were dead, and only eleven people on the Plenty Territory were injured, and seven were slightly injured.
"We won?"
Little Joel, with blood all over his face, looked in disbelief. This was a monster. He actually killed a monster with his own hands, even though he only played a little cooperation and his output was basically equal to nothing.
"Yes, we won."
The guard soldier beside him patted Little Joel on the shoulder. It was the first time he faced a monster, but he did not run away in fear and cause trouble for them. He even had the courage to stab the monster twice. Just for this courage, he deserved to show a few more smiles.
"This is the first victory worth remembering. Go and ask Master Melward to come and freeze these monsters and put them in the territory of abundance for a day, so that the people in the territory know how everyone in the security team protects them.
Then proceed with the necessary processing and utilization of these monsters. I have seen all your merits and will ask for credit for you. These low-level dragon skins can be made into inner armor by leatherworkers, and the meat of monsters can increase the speed of warriors' fighting spirit cultivation. I think the lord will not be stingy with the reward for your bravery."
There was a cheer from the audience. Dragonborn leather armor and monster meat containing dragon blood are good things, especially for warriors who have to face danger all the time and need a lot of nutrition to nourish their bodies. These are good things that are hard to buy even if they have money.
Although he handled these spoils that should have belonged to the lord without authorization, with Dawn's understanding of his own lord, Kun would naturally not keep these things in the warehouse to stink, or trade them out, but would use them as much as possible. These things will naturally fall into the hands of the guard group and the security team in the end.
It boosted morale and didn't cost him a single copper coin, so why not do it?
"Lord Dawn, butler Tate sent someone to tell me that the Lord is waiting for you at Blackstone Castle, and asked you to report immediately after finishing your work here."
"Okay, I got it, tell Tate, I'll be there soon."
Dawn turned his head and looked at the people from the Ice Fang Mercenary Group, and said coldly:
"Everyone, follow me, the Lord is waiting for you, don't worry, my Lord's surname is Alan, and he is familiar with the people of the Smith family, and he may have met this person."
If the noble boy is really the third son of the Earl of Breton, it's fine, but if not, haha.
After seeing those powerful security team soldiers, old Kili suddenly panicked. Not a warrior apprentice, but a security team composed of all warriors? Even the king would not be so extravagant, let alone this remote corner of the kingdom.
The noble boy, who was originally quite calm, seemed to have remembered something, and his face suddenly changed.
"You said the lord's surname is Alan, then where is this place? It can't be Feng, Fengrao..."
"Yes, this is Fengrao Territory."
"Please!"
