The Sun King's Evidence

Chapter 222, Sweet Home

PS. Let us wish him a happy birthday.

Is this okay? Ryan's mouth was open for a long time, unable to speak.

The hippogryph is the mount coveted by countless lords. Just like the griffin of the Empire, the hippogryph is the ultimate requirement for a mount by the lords of Britannia.

He is still riding a pure-blooded elf warhorse. Angron will now ride a hippogryph?

His knight rides a hippogryph? Is the lord still riding a war horse?

Ryan's face was indescribably uncomfortable, and he could only smile bitterly: "Brother, your progress is a bit ahead of schedule."

"Really?" Angron scratched his head. He could feel Ryan's surprise, which made him feel satisfied.

On the contrary, Morgiana looked at Angron with extremely wary eyes.

It was a feeling of danger, a feeling of absolute danger. This terrible aura almost made the Lake God Witch feel suffocated. Even after putting down her weapon, Morgiana still retained a deep vigilance on her face.

"I named my hippogryph Nuceria to commemorate my dead brothers and sisters." Angron gently patted Ryan on the shoulder: "Finally back, thank you for your hard work, nothing else I won’t tell you much more, see you at the same place tomorrow.”

Ryan nodded. The old place refers to the secret stronghold established by Angron in the Chalon Forest. With the help of the Forbidden Army, his brother established a "safe house" in the Chalon Forest in the north of the Baron of Jean.

After saying hello to his brother, Angron said that I was going hunting, patted Ryan on the shoulder, and he roared away on the hippogryph, indescribably cool.

Ryan and Morgiana continued to move forward. The Lake God Witch hesitated for a moment, but still asked Ryan: "I heard that your brother came here to seek refuge with you after he committed a crime, but judging from his strength... what did he do? What happened that made the lord decide to punish him?"

Ryan smiled slightly. Morgiana's implication was that Angron's strength could make even the Lake God and Witch feel unfathomable. How could the lords be willing to, or dare to punish a warrior who was at least the pinnacle of the Holy Domain?

"Making mistakes has many meanings and levels. Even the elder brother must be punished for making mistakes on some levels." Ryan shook his head, and he said meaningfully: "Gods must be punished for making mistakes, my highness. "

Morgiana saw this and said nothing.

From far to near, the changes in Ji'en Town are staggering. The town walls have completely turned into tall stone walls. Half of the low wooden houses in the town have been turned into residences with at least two or three floors. The other Half of it is also being built. Dense crowds of people are crowding the streets, carriages are coming and going. The town has even been divided into special commercial areas. A row of new shops are opening. Ryan can see many serfs waiting on the street corner. Apparently He's waiting for work.

Morgiana's appearance aroused cheers from the people in the town. Many serfs couldn't help but kneel down and chant the names of the Lake Fairy and the Lake God Witch. Morgiana routinely blessed the gathered townspeople and ushered in the new year. There was even louder praise.

Many wood elves and dwarves have appeared on the street, and everything indicates that there is something in this baron that is attracting them.

After dispersing the crowd of onlookers, Ryan and Morgiana walked up the hillside. Katzenberg opened the door for the baron. The bald butler bowed deeply: "Oh, my baron, you are finally back, and the last thing you need is Your Highness the Most Respectable Lake God Witch, welcome to Baron Jean."

"This is not my first time here." Morgiana turned over and got off the unicorn. She floated directly in the air and flew towards the prayer room on the third floor: "I will rest in there. You can give me hot water and dinner." I'll deliver it."

"Yes." Ryan nodded, and he handed the reins to the sergeant's hand: "Katzenberg, I need a hearty dinner."

"Understood, my baron, I will make arrangements immediately." The butler bowed deeply.

"Master, are you back?" The dark elf Orika appeared. She was wearing a standard black and white maid outfit, and her waist-deep black hair was as shiny as satin.

"Yes, I'm back." Ryan hugged his dark elf maid, and then kissed her gently on the lips: "Where's Veronica?"

"Miss Veronica went to supervise the construction of her wizard tower and won't be back until night." Olica leaned on Ryan very attachedly: "I will arrange for someone to boil water."

"Well, remember to burn more. Your Highness Morgiana also wants a bucket." Ryan ordered.

"OK."

The servants quickly boiled a bucket of hot water, and Ryan put himself in it comfortably. As the backbone of the territory, the return of the Baron made everyone in the Baron Castle very happy. A Holy Grail Knight Lord was very concerned about the territory. It affects all aspects, especially within the territory. There are always rumors that the lord is a person blessed by the gods. The hunters who hunt in the Chalon Forest and the serfs who go to chop wood can always get the protection and protection of some tall golden-armored giants. help.

Olika helped Ryan bathe and told him about the changes in the territory over time.

The population of Baron Jean has recently expanded to more than 14,000 people.

"Where did so many people come from?" Ryan asked casually while soaking in the hot water. In the master room on the third floor, the mist brought by the hot water was thick and filled the room.

"They are escaped serfs from the Principality of Belion and the Principality of Carcassonne." The dark elf said softly: "The Principality of Belion has been at war with Estalia, and many serfs could not survive, so they fled here. Since it was in the middle of a war, it was difficult for the nobles of the principality to determine whether the serfs were dead or had surrendered or escaped, so Mr. Katzenberg took the opportunity to take in a lot of high-quality people."

"There are also serfs in the Principality of Carcassonne. Duke Hubald has embarked on the road to the Holy Grail. The principality is currently jointly regent by a marquis and the Lake God Prophet, so some free people took the opportunity to come here to look for jobs." Lika put a towel on Ryan's body, and the dark elf's pointed ears were wearing golden rings, which swayed slightly with the owner's movements.

"This will cause some trouble in the future." Ryan sighed comfortably. He has absorbed so many people, and these neighbors must have opinions about him.

Development is the last word, and we can’t control that much now. The arrival of these high-quality people will do more good than harm.

"Where are the wood elves and dwarves?"

"My cousins ​​sent a team of Woodland Guards and a team of Eternal Guards to station themselves on the land you drew for them." Orika's tone was a bit contemptuous and awkward: "Generally speaking, they are satisfied with the status quo. The existence of these wood elves has attracted a large number of merchants to trade. At least your merchant friend, Oliver, has made a fortune from this. It is said that he has now risen to the upper class of Marienburg by relying on your relationship with the wood elf trade tycoon. Society.”

"Don't forget our closest relatives Asul, they are our enemies of Eslay! Don't forget our cousin Druzi, he is our enemy of Eslay!"

——Wood Elf Nursery Rhyme

"Very good." Ryan then asked: "What about the dwarves? I think the blacksmith workshops along the river seem to be very big."

"The rune craftsman Delon Feinsen can produce more than two hundred complete sets of dwarf finely crafted equipment and weapons every month. The business of these iron tools is very hot. The demand for it is exceeded by the reservations of the wood elves and nearby lords, so the dwarves decided Calling his own kind to come to help, as of today, more than a dozen dwarves have left the mountains and settled here." The dark elf's small hand gently pressed on Ryan's back: "It is difficult for dwarves to trust others, but They are willing to trust the Holy Grail Knight, the master. It is said that many dwarves in the mountains are interested in the life outside, and the dwarf king of Karak Breeze Castle did not stop them from leaving after hearing your name."

"Are there designated communities for them according to my instructions?" Ryan then asked.

"some."

"Very good." Ryan stopped asking after seeing this. He washed for a while and then stood up from the barrel. The scar on his chest was very conspicuous. The dark elf could tell at a glance what kind of hard battle his master had gone through. .

But unlike the female knight or Emilia, the dark elf was not worried at all when she saw this scar. Instead, her face was full of pride and pride. She helped Ryan wipe her body with a towel and said cheerfully: "What an amazing master. , in the dark and cold Nagaros, if there are dark elves who can defeat the Chaos Demon, you will definitely be received by the Witch King."

"Will he make me the Lord of Fear?" Ryan joked.

Olica's expression froze, and she looked away unnaturally: "I don't know about this."

Ryan didn't notice the abnormality of the dark elf. He changed into light clothes and hugged the dark elf into his arms. Orica hugged him with a rosy face: "Master, if you have anything to do, let's talk about it tonight. Your Highness the Lake God Witch is still here." waiting for you."

"Okay! I'll send the things up now." Ryan sent hot water and towels to the prayer room on the third floor.

The prayer room was renovated again under the auspices of Olika. The statue of the Lady of the Lake and the shrine remained unchanged. Wallpapers and paintings were put on the walls, and carpets were laid on the floor.

Morgiana was sitting on the big bed in the room. The Lake God Witch's long skirt reached the floor. When she saw Ryan coming in with a large bucket of water and towels, she complained a little: "Why are you here now?"

"Sorry, my Highness, I have to wash myself first before I dare to come to see you." Ryan put down the bucket and towel and asked casually: "Would you like to have dinner with me and my subordinates tonight?"

"No, you can just bring dinner here." Morgiana took off her soft boots. The Lake God Witch let out a breath and thanked her softly: "Anyway, thank you for your hard work, Ryan, for destroying Chaos. The same goes for the big devil, because it’s also my business.”

"It's my honor, your highness." Ryan bowed politely and then withdrew.

"Wait..." Morgiana was still about to say something to Ryan, but Ryan had already closed the door and left.

Coming down from the third floor, Tax Officer Gasparton immediately found Ryan: "My Baron, there is something for you to handle here."

Knight Errant Olivier also emerged from the side: "My Baron, I also have an immature suggestion here."

"Let's talk in the office, Gasparton." Ryan motioned for everyone to walk and talk.

"The tax revenue in the first quarter of this year exceeded five hundred gold crowns, my baron." Gasparton looked happy, and he chased behind Ryan and said: "My opinion is to take some of it and give it to us. Sergeants get a better set of equipment.”

"This is exactly what I want to say, my Baron, there has been a group of thieves in the Chalon Forest recently. My suggestion is to let me lead people to destroy them." Olivier also followed behind Ryan and said.

The three people walked into the office. Ryan sat in the baron's seat and motioned to his tax collector and knight errant to sit down: "Are the sergeants equipped with enough hand crossbows?"

"Yes, my baron, with the help of the dwarves, the sergeants have all been equipped with breastplates made by the dwarves and dwarf hand crossbows." Olivier continued: "The range of this dwarf hand crossbow is longer than that of the serf archers. The range is longer, but shorter than the range of the Bastogne Longbowmen.”

Ryan nodded: "Tell me about that group of robbers, Olivier."

The knight errant took out a map, and his finger pointed towards the area of ​​the Principality of Bastogne in the Chalon Forest above the Baron of Jean: "Recently, a group of thieves calling themselves the 'Bergerac Brotherhood' were in the Chalon Forest. Led by a notorious fugitive serf, they intercepted travelers and merchants everywhere. Interestingly, this group of bandits never killed people or stole goods. They only took a small part of the things from passers-by each time, and then left. Allowing them to leave, this group of bandits also called themselves 'Rogues' and often left the forest to help the serfs who could not survive, which caused the knights of Bastogne to encounter many difficulties when trying to conquer them, and then nothing happened."

"Pfft! These bandits still understand the principles of sustainable development?" Ryan laughed.

Gasparton and Olivier are both weird, sustainable?

The baron did not explain, and Olivier did not dare to pause. Now Ryan was becoming more and more majestic. The knight errant coughed and continued: "In short, I suggest that we send troops to exterminate this group of robbers, but this group of robbers is very strong, especially The leader is dressed in green, and people call him Bertrand the Rogue. It is said that he can blind a Pegasus with one arrow."

"Well, don't worry about this. It's spring plowing time now, and we can't recruit troops. Let's send out scouts to get some information first." Ryan made a decision for the time being: "Today I hope to rest for a year before sending troops. Consider it carefully.”

"Yes..." Seeing that Ryan had no idea of ​​sending troops, Olivier was a little disappointed. Military merit and glory are the ladder of promotion. Currently, Ryan's two kingdom knights are still vacant, and several knights-errant are secretly competing with each other.

It’s evening time to deal with the backlog of internal affairs.

After enjoying the sumptuous dinner, Ryan knocked on the door of the prayer room on the third floor with a food tray: "Your Highness Morgiana? I've brought dinner."

"come in."

Updated. Yesterday’s third update was too painful, so it’s a little late today. Sorry.
