Although Thackere, the Afar family's subordinate territory, is located in a remote location, there are still some lord forces in the neighborhoods. Although the scale is not very large, it is also because it is located in a remote location, with a small target, and the impact of the black tide is also small, so most of them are retained:

The Foster family, the Dumilut family, the Rhodes family and the Cridoya family, all of these families are somewhat attracted by the current Afar family.

Originally, the territory of the Afar family was the most remote and desolate. The ancient castle along the mountain was cold and humid, and it was far less comfortable to live in the manor. However, when the end of the Black Tide came, all these shortcomings turned into advantages, especially the beautiful magician butler Fei Shiyat, who actually understood the potential threat of the Black Tide in the early stage, made timely preparations, and consumed a lot of financial resources to hoard materials.

This has led to the place where the tasteless food was originally tasteless and the pity it was abandoned, becoming a place like a paradise.

These families now want to plunder the territory of the Afar family, some for supplies, some for territory, some for reputation and trends of attacking potential competitors, and even for the beautiful and loyal lady, Fessette.

These four families originally planned to unite and jointly invade the Thackeraifar family castle and divide everything. However, before we could understand the plan, the tide of darkness became stronger and stronger, and all kinds of monsters became stronger.

The timberwolves evolved into a forest man-eating wolf, and the corpse ghoul evolved into a ghoul. They were originally like mice, but were particularly capable of fertility. Now they are constantly evolving and transforming into a bloodthirsty goblin. With their number and violence, they seriously threaten the survival and safety of human beings.

What is even more terrifying is that more and more people have seen the "Fallen Knights" in the wilderness. Civilians are killed and transformed into zombies. So what will they be transformed into after the death of powerful warriors in many battles?

On April 17, the Foster family territory encountered the "Fallen Knights" and was directly impacted and collapsed in just one afternoon. All the clans were destroyed. On May 21, the Rhodes family was besieged by the Black Tide and White Walkers. Three days later, the town's fortifications were destroyed, and a small number of people fled into hidden buildings underground and brought out the news.

This world is no longer apart from human beings. The evil things wandering in the wilderness force the remaining human beings into a place of strong defense and shelter.

In this process, thanks to the full preparations in the early stage, Thackere, the territory of the Afar family, became a huge construction site. Everyone has a large number of labor tasks and sufficient supplies, which brings a huge sense of peace of mind to the outside world, work and food to the civilians. This is common sense.

Most people are walking on the street, and suddenly someone comes towards you, and inexplicably they will give you a huge amount of money. The first reaction of most people to this is not ecstasy, but to be alert, nervous, and even want to avoid it.

Because the other party's behavior is inconsistent with the trading principle in most people's minds, there will be evil when things are abnormal. Those who give will be great, and those who plan will be great.

Therefore, in the Earth's era, when crises occur in various countries, the effect of labor-for-relief is far better than simple disaster relief, because this is in line with the trading principles in the minds of most people.

The doomsday tide has arrived, and a large number of refugees have poured into Thackeray Town. Many of them are not in the kingdom's population account. A few or dozens of people hide in the mountains as self-cultivated farmers. Although they have to face some dangers, they do not have to pay the tax. However, the danger is far greater than the little income that does not have to pay the tax, so they all come out.

The population in Thackeray Town expanded seven or eight times or even ten times in a short period of time. Fortunately, the land where Shi Yi expanded the manor circle before was large enough. The land originally renovated was now all manned. Although the dark tide was spreading, it was difficult for the farming income to be improved.

Recruiting soldiers and recruiting heroic human generals. The barbarian witch priest Waden Yunus, who was originally unwilling to join Thackeray Town, passed by Thackeray and led his tribe members to the east for a while, but the dark tide quickly became more and more intense. In the end, he couldn't continue and had to go back and found Shi Yi to apply to join Thackeray Town.

Shi Yi did not make things difficult for the old man without any bad taste, and asked someone to share the land for the old man and his barbarians and shelter them again.

People like Edu Hani, Woolf, and Witch Vaden Yunus, Shi Yi found an opportunity to take them as retainers and enthrone them as family knights.

Dividing the land, giving it to servants, and giving generous monthly payments is both a stable and inspiring person, and a diffusion of recruitment signals to the outside world.

The richer the resources and developed the economy of a territory, the bigger the taverns/hotels in the territory, the better, the younger and more beautiful the maids inside, and the better the clowns they attract. When the bards and clowns and wandering performers leave here to perform in other territories, the basic situation and reputation of the territory will spread, forming the world's first impression of this territory.

Then, warriors with outstanding strength and confidence will naturally choose these areas with good reputations to go to, hoping to get the level of advancement. On the contrary, those adventurers with weak and old strength will go to areas with poor properties or poor reputations of the lords, which is a two-way choice. Of course, there are also some powerful adventurers of employers who have committed crimes or betrayed to go to areas with poor or bad reputations of the lords, which is called collusion.

On the other hand, accepting retainers and cannoning knights is also a good way to enhance fame and recruit talents. The effect in a short period of time is far greater than that of the business territory and expanding the tavern, because knights are grassroots nobles. Once they are enthroned, they are actually hereditary guarantees. As long as they and their descendants do not have such extreme crimes as rebels and killing them, then knights and their descendants can actually enjoy blessings for generations - wealth and honor, but they are also free of food and clothing.

However, frequent enthronement is not a good thing for a family, because it is to divide its own large tracts of land, population, and wealth. No matter how powerful a family is, it cannot withstand the consumption caused by frequent enthronement.

"Time is here, the ceremony begins!"

Below the viewing platform, there were sounds of music. Three prepared grassroots nobles had appeared. They were all full of spirits and had excited smiles on their faces. Nongping and merchants around them all consciously applauded and cheered.

In this medieval era, the civilian class not only needed talent but also countless efforts and opportunities to become knights. At this point, Edu Hani and Wolf both met the standards. They both fought bloody battles for the territory and would continue to fight bloody battles. As for the old barbarian witch sacrifice to Waden Yunus... they were the identity of a spellcaster, and this privilege was still available. Even if the hard-working/poor/cannon fodder warriors couldn't stand it, how many warriors dared to show their faces to the wizard? Even Edu Hani and Wolf were cautious in pleasing Waden Yunus, even if he was a spellcaster by a barbarian spellcaster.

After a ceremony, Lord Claude Afar walked up to the front stage, and he stood on the platform, and at this moment, Lord Edu Hani, the first canonized, had already half kneeled in front of Claude Afar.

"I swear: I swear by my faith and ask God to witness it. From now on, my family and I will be loyal to the Afar family, and to Baron Claude Afar. I will be the sword and a strong shield in your hand. As long as my knowledge and strength allow, with the help of the God, I will give you advice and help according to my duties and my own morality, and never deceive or rebel, so that you can maintain and practice the authority given to you by God."

"Welcome, my dear Edu Hani, welcome you to be a member of my family." According to the ancient etiquette of this world, Shi Yi operated step by step, and finally took out a silver plate with a badge (family emblem), a flag (noble private army), and a small piece of soil (representing the granting of land). Edu Hani took it, and then he stood up and saluted the baron again.

The ceremony between Woolf and Waden Yunus was generally the case, but Woolf himself was not a noble family, so Shi Yi needed to grant him a surname. Shi Yi took the surname "Olmedo". In ancient legend, the side of His Majesty Taizu Yano Afar of the Frost Wolf Empire was followed by the ancient giant warrior "Olmedo". He accompanied Taizu invincible battles throughout his life and was extremely brave. Unfortunately, on the eve of the empire's completion, Taizu was surrounded and killed by a beautiful widow.

Woolf is very satisfied with this surname. He doesn't know yet that he will be called the "one-eyed giant" Woolf Olmedo in the future.

And he was mentioned countless times how he had lost his eyes to highlight the magical martial arts of His Majesty Claude Afar!

After Woolf Ormedo, it was the old witch sacrifice to Waden Janus.

After the enthronement ceremony, the enthroned knights and the civilians of the territory were very excited and happy. There would be a cocktail party arranged by the lord next, but Fei Shiyat was a little unhappy. Shi Yi quickly noticed this after the ceremony, but he quickly realized why.

"Sister, you are too stingy. Didn't you just enthrone some more land? This little face is bulging, and the original melon-shaped face has turned into a round face. Kassandra will definitely be very happy to see it. She has been jealous of her sister's face for more than a day or two."

When he was in a secluded place where no one was around, the handsome and handsome young lord immediately hugged his beautiful sister into his arms.

"Ah? Claude, what are you doing? Here... Woooo" The following omits the detailed description of 12,000 words to save the readers' starting currency.

The white skin was dyed with gorgeous rouge at this moment, and the anger I had before was gone. Fei Shiyat, who had always been rational, elegant and majestic, was like a helpless little lamb, feeling aggrieved:

"I also know that you have fought together and had a very deep friendship, but to share so much land with them, such division is very unfavorable in the long run, because if it were like this for generations, I am afraid that the territory of the entire family would be divided up for several generations, and at that time there would be no capital to support the noble family."

"Haha, my good sister. You are so smart, why are you stupid in this matter? Do you really plan to live in Thackeray for the rest of your life? It would be fine if you can't solve the problem. If you can solve it, can we still live like before with the powerful forces? It's impossible."

"Thackeray was also a good place during the period of the spread of the dark tide. When the Mochao retreated, it was the most useless and useless place. Didn't you see only Edu and Woolf excited? The old guy Waden didn't react much at all, because he knew that the land was too remote. Even if the Mochao retreated, the transportation cost would be too high."

"What if Kuroshima never retreated?"

"...If the Black Tide never retreats, the humans in this world will inevitably die. What's the use of us holding so many territories?"

As time goes by, Claude Afar's wings gradually become fuller: the two sisters Faith and Cassandra who are devoted to themselves are losing all their hearts. With Shi Yi's magic, their talents and qualifications are constantly improving. In the end, Faith was promoted to A level, Cassandra was promoted to B level, one mage and one priest.

The sophisticated and calm Edu Hani, although he lacks talent and qualifications, was very specialized in defense and could be compared with B-level heroes. Woolf Olmedo, who had no knowledge of A-level talent and qualifications, began to teach him the magic golden bell cover technique, and his strength began to improve rapidly. However, he attributed this to the lord's private teaching, and did not know that he was talented, so he became more loyal.

The barbarian witch sacrificed Wadden and Yunus, and Shi Yi gathered a barbarian infantry unit of 200 people to command him. This old guy followed the ancient method and used secret medicine to refine an ebony armor, which was as light as paper and as strong as steel. Wearing it in the barbarian infantry unit can increase its combat power several times. The only problem is that he is afraid of fire, but it is already very powerful. If the enemy does not use flames to attack, then how much does it take?

Ak Middleton, the leader of the slave cavalry regiment, had decided to stay here after witnessing the generosity of Lord Claude Afar/Lord Shi Yi, and he had decided to stay here and work with Lord Claude, but he had not made any military achievements and had insufficient qualifications, so it was not his turn to enthrone the knights for the time being.

But this is also very fast. In the long-term war, in addition to the commander of the first army, there are people who are more likely to gain military merit than cavalry generals?

As for the pastor, Marian Mayer, Gemini, Leona Kant and Vitans, their age is either too old or too young, but Shi Yi has begun to let Vitans take over most of his civil affairs and government affairs and grant him extremely high authority.

Shi Yi always felt that Vitans was a little uneasy, but it was painful to be able to get talent, so he made this kid feel prematurely exposed to the pleasure brought by power. As long as he did not directly contact extraordinary power or military power, no matter how powerful the civil servants are or how much corruption is, they can press them when they want to.

After all, Shi Yi deeply understood that in the extraordinary plane world, only power is the purest power.

…………………

As time went by, the situation worsened, except for the Foster family, which had been exterminated and the Rhodes family, the Dumilut family, the Cridoya family and some remaining small families, all sent rescue letters to the Afar family.

They did not simply rescue the Afar family, but actually sent each other a rescue letter, because with the raging black tide, evil things rushing into the city have become more and more fierce.

(This is a consumption. The power of the endless and bottomless dark abyss world to be immersed in this world through the plane barrier is limited. Although it is much stronger than this world, it cannot only focus on this world. Therefore, the power is scattered. Every time the Chaos monster breaks through a human stronghold, the power of this world order is destroyed by a minute, and the same is true for the same. Every time a human kills a Chaos monster, the power of the abyss that is invested in this world is weakened by a minute until it is exhausted.)

From the perspective of the endless abyss of darkness in the universe, it is the same for so many worlds on the middle plane to swallow any of them first. Although it is a natural disaster in the universe, it does not have a clear consciousness and can only continuously devour the instincts of the heavens. The world it is in is not outstanding or special, and it is not particularly weak. Therefore, if it is slowly consumed, it is possible to support the past.

Of course, Shi Yi knew his abilities. He wanted to rule more people and more troops, so that he could have a higher confidence in success and win his own game.

At this moment, under the wood and stone fortifications, there were a large number of corpses, bloodthirsty goblins and four hundred people in the distance, and ghosts and grievances were flying in the sky. They did not have any material attack power, but their existence and whine would continue to reduce the morale of soldiers who had already been alive. Therefore, Kassandra and Marian Mayer came up to expel each time, and a large area purified the ghosts, treated the wounded, and increased morale.

"Anyone who fights bloody battles with monsters can expect our Lord until death. Those who are brave and fearless and face evil spirits will be saved even if they die, ascend to heaven and experience the kindness and comfort of our Lord forever. Those who are cowardly and flee and turn their backs on the glory of our Lord will live forever, and will fall into hell forever after death!"

At this moment, Marian Mayer's grandmother kneeled on the ground, put the head of a young man with blood on her knees, her hands were folded, and she kept reciting prayers. Under her comfort, the young man's expression gradually became peaceful and peaceful.

"Go with peace of mind, the Lord's son, you are a brave warrior. I am proud of you, and your family will be glorified by you."

The power of faith is terrible, because of the existence of Marian Mayer's grandmother, the training time of soldiers can be greatly shortened. Even young and timid soldiers may shout the slogan "The Holy Spirit is with the brave" and stand up to the battlefield without fear.

The beliefs of Westerners and the feelings of family and country of Easterners are essentially the same. They are weapons created by humans to deal with the difficult external environment. Moreover, in such a extraordinary world, the power of faith is also true and not just false deception.

"The axeman infantry retreats, the barbarian troops go into battle, and the archers go into battle." With the military command, Wu Ji Waden Yunus also began to cast spells. He waved his cane to cover the heads of the goblin arsonists in the distance. In this way, the torches of these goblin arsonists cannot be thrown onto the city wall. Instead, the archers on the ground can continuously output rockets to kill.

These evil things and White Walkers in the dark fog tide do not have the ability to build siege equipment. The siege is almost forced by relying on the advantage of numericality. Even the fallen knights in the distance are forced to hit the city by knights, smashing the walls and then breaking the city. This is not particularly exaggerated. They are just a group of high-level corpse ghosts that retain some of the instincts of warriors, and have been strengthened in physique and strength. It is natural that they will choose to directly hit some thinner city walls.

However, in front of Waden Janus's Atmospheric Age Shield spell, this move cannot be used, and the knight's impact will be directly defeated. The hysteresis of the Atmospheric Age Shield will completely buffer the impact force, making the Fallen Knights a standard target.

"Sir Baron, I care more about those guys than these goblins and ghouls under the city. Can we send cavalry out of the city, go around from the other side, and clear them out." Edu Hani pointed at the moment at this moment, several yellow-robed humans followed by the Fallen Knights. Although they were humans, the evil monsters and demons around them did not hurt them, because these people were: believers in the doomsday, realm traitors inspired by darkness, who agreed with the concept of destruction and creation, or simply wanted to gain power and get relatively better treatment.

These guys may inexplicably comprehend some dark knowledge or awaken dark superpowers. Unlike the gradual cultivation of the extraordinary, the strength of the doomsday believers is chaotic and disorderly, or this is more in line with the essence of the abyss.

After several days of intense heat on both sides, when the corpses of the evil beasts under the city reached a certain height, Shi Yi personally led his army to open the city gate and then stood in front of him.

Although it is safer to continue to guard the city, what Shi Yi wants is not safer, but faster victory and greater authority.

(Although I can guarantee my small losses and high victory, I don’t know the level of control of other families. What if I delay it for too long and let them consume all my troops?)

The Fallen Knights, which had a certain wisdom of war, had already calculated to retreat after half of the loss, but when they saw humans open the city gate and come out, they turned their heads and refused to leave.

Unfortunately, this time it was not the gentle and atmospheric Age that welcomed them to charge, but the thunder and thunder came from the sky to kill everything.

Beside Fei Shiyat, there are two priest casters, riding on horseback to spread light and weakening the power of the evil beasts in the dark tide.

After the troops began to leave the city, the slave cavalry team that had been entrusted with their hiding was finally pulled out, but Shi Yi was in charge of his own command, and he looked down on Ak Middleton's command ability.

"Ak Middleton, occupation: Heavy Knight, Level: Level 22, Talent and Qualification C, Rating: 72. Special note: Originally, he was born as the second son of a declining noble family, so he received good swordsmanship and riding education.

Core skills: Slave trafficking. When selling slaves, you can get better trading bonuses based on your own eloquence."

Shi Yi has two C-level heroes, Edu Hani and Ak Middleton, but the former is much more valuable than the latter. Edu Hani is almost no less than the B-level hero. If he lets him defend, he is no different from a B-level hero. However, Ak Middleton is not a combat or tactical hero. Unless Shi Yi sells a large-scale slave, Ak Middleton can compare with the value of a B-level hero, and even has a more comprehensive cost-effectiveness than ordinary B-level heroes. However, in this era, Ak Middleton's abilities are semi-destroyed.

There are enough free people who are willing to work hard in the doomsday. If they turn them into slaves, they will affect their enthusiasm for production.

Of course, after all, he brought him twenty-five full-armor heavy cavalry. Before he was recruited to him, Ak Middleton was more valuable than Edou Hani.

Claude Afar, Woolf Olmedo, Ak Middleton, and twenty-five riders, this is the twenty-eighth level rider.

The slave cavalry regiment was originally equipped with all blunt weapons, but now this era is of course time has changed. All the guys in their hands have been changed into sharp armor-breaking weapons. The originally huge hammer was inlaid with sharp thorns, breaking defenses and armor-breaking.

"Ak, you have put a lot of effort into your subordinates. I think their armor is probably better than those of the first-class heavy cavalry regiment in the Kingdom!" Although he knew that the opponent's talent was limited, Shi Yi did not show it at all. Instead, Ak Middleton felt very close and he was highly valued.

"After all, the country's elite cavalry regiment is fighting for the country, but we fight for ourselves, make some money, and change our own equipment. After a long time, we will become like this."

"Hahahaha, OK, OK, follow me!"

In the subsequent melee outside the city, Shi Yi, who opened the innate Bagua mental image and almost looked down on the overall situation, brought the combat power of these 28 heavy cavalry to the extreme. In most cases on the battlefield, expensive cavalry will not actually attack the enemy troops head-on, and even if they can beat them, it will not be cost-effective. Killing ten people will lose one person by himself, and finally finding that the cost is to accompany him.

The correct way to use the knight is to constantly use powerful movement to attack the enemy's flanks and back centers, and not to rush once, but to constantly attack the enemy's flanks and back centers like a hammer, and to directly smash the opponent.
To be continued...
