Chapter 164: Acquisition of Shenlin Town (Part 1)
The sky gradually became brighter, and the early pirates were panicked when they saw the shocking blood in the snow. Salin did not come forward, but Daniel walked out of the tent and suppressed the pirates.
Everyone knows that these people left their posts without permission and were executed by Salin. The pirates who originally regarded this time as hunting were silent. Salin used to look kind, and the pirates rarely got angry when they saw him. Now the pirates finally know what a magician said, don't forget.
The Three Dead Kings did not think that there was anything wrong with Salin's approach. In the undead plane, the commands of the superiors were irresistible. Even if there was a little error in execution, it might be possible to be dispersed by the soul fire. It was already very kind to Salin kill these pirates but let their souls go.
The team set off again, the pirates formed neatly, and the scouts also looked decently in front of them. In fact, before arriving at the Principality of Phoenix, bandits could not appear along the way. Which thieves would choose to plunder in this place? Not to mention the winter of the frozen land, even in summer, there would be no merchant here for a hundred and eighty years.
As for the monsters, there are no very powerful monsters unless they are further north, within two thousand miles north of Phoenix. Because there are groups of demon wolves here, the huge number of demon wolves makes the advanced monsters have no living space. The demon wolves are very afraid of the skeleton war horses and do not want to provoke this team of men. Salin's team can hardly encounter any harassment.
On the Meers Continent, although sword masters are the main combat power, more than one hundred swordsmen have an advantage when facing less than ten sword masters. Salin's team is still powerful among adventurers. Even if the magicians do not take action, the pirates have an absolute advantage when facing adventurers.
An adventure team is usually composed of ten to twelve people, and at most three people at the swordsman level, only two people. Cang Hong's team was already considered strong at the beginning. How could so many magicians gather together to take risks in this world?
In this way, the team marched continuously in a solemn state. After a week, they arrived at the Deep Forest Town on the edge of the forest as planned. The pirates also vaguely knew that Ge Yi did it, and they couldn't help but feel a little hated for Ge Yi. However, with Salin's support, these pirates could only endure it silently.
At this time, Aini admired Salin. From then on, Geyi had to follow Salin wholeheartedly. Anyone who knew that he had done such a thing and killed his companions would probably not use him like Salin.
The pirates are still in their early 100 years. These more than a hundred fully armed pirates rode skeleton war horses through Phoenix, which has long aroused the alert of local nobles. However, the Grand Duke of Phoenix is not there, and Salin has the badge of the Kushui County State obtained by Rex. He has enough power to lead so many soldiers, not to mention that there are three magicians in his team, but Daniel has not many little nobles who dare to provoke him.
Daniel has broken through the boundary of level three and has become a real level four necromancer. A nobleman below the earl. Provoking Daniel is likely to cause death. Although Daniel has not been exempted yet, Salin has it.
Shenlin Town belongs to a first-class baron. The arrival of Salin's men shocked the baron and thought his town was going to be invaded. There were no mercenaries or adventurers in the winter, and he could not even conscript such people to fight for him. He was under his command just over a dozen swordsmen, and a group of peasant militiamen. He wanted to fight against these hundred warriors riding skeleton war horses.
When the baron knew that the other party had a great magician, he obediently brought two followers to ask for a visit to Salin. He had already made up his mind that if Salin wanted to steal his town, he would take his family to Saint Rock City. Anyway, Saint Rock City recognized his title. At worst, he could learn from the Grand Duke of Phoenix and stayed in Saint Rock City and refused to leave.
Although it is difficult to obtain Qin Yin's title, once he has a hereditary title, unless he makes a huge mistake, the royal family will take care of such a loser and even help such a noble regain a territory.
Emperor Chanak used this method to win over many nobles. Until now, Sephiroth could not replace Emperor Chanak's position in the hearts of local nobles.
Such a large team of Salin occupied half a street of hotels in Shenlin Town. Fortunately, the hotels were empty, and there were no adventurers going to hunt in the forest this season. Of course, even if the hotel is full of people now, they would take the initiative to give up their room when they saw Salin's attitude.
The kind of adventurer who fights with others for the sake of the room will only appear in the stories of storytellers in the tavern.
The baron was waiting tremblingly outside the door of Salin's room. He had already sent someone to send the gift he brought in. The magician in the room had not replied, which made him even more worried. He could not resist the other party's request for this town, but the magician did not reply to any news. Could it be that he wanted to kill himself?
Salin did not reply to him because he was chatting with Aini and forgot that the baron was still waiting outside. He understood the Baron's thoughts, and he was a little disappointed with this attitude.
"Ani, I heard that Qin Yinren is very bloody. Why does this baron seem to have to abandon his territory?"
Salin was inspired. If Qin Yin's nobles had all this virtue, the Holy See's legions would sweep Qin Yin's land as long as they rushed past Garroran. If that were the case, they would not have to wait for two years. Within a year, the Holy See would send the army to its city.
Enni sneered, expressing his disdain, and said, "Are the Phoenix people still considered Qin Yin people? They are rotten from top to bottom. Which of the cities you see in the south is like Phoenix?"
Salin recalled it, and it turned out that he was almost caught with Rex in Pompeii. Grand Duke Pompeii's decision and ruthlessness made him feel scared. He dared to attack the princess of the Empire. Although he did not succeed, he then used this incident to annex Longya Town.
The nobles in Qin Yin were indeed very fierce. The private army of those nobles was able to entangle the Holy See's army in Galoran, which has explained the problem. In addition to the death of Emperor Chanak, Qin Yin's hearts were disintegrating. In terms of their respective combat effectiveness, Qin Yin's nobles were much stronger than Skochenya's.
"If so, we'll save trouble."
"You want to rob?" Enni was startled. Although he dared to intercept Baron Cook, he had to kill him for his own life. If Salin starts a war here, it will cause dissatisfaction with Saint Rock City. Although the Grand Duke of Phoenix is cowardly, he will definitely give him some advice in Saint Rock City. At that time, the Grand Duke of Phoenix only needs to spend a little money, and the nobles of the House of Commons will mobilize their troops to attack.
The Clyde family is good at doing business, not war.
"What are you grabbing, I'll buy it directly, and buy it with this baron." Salin said relaxedly.
"This...is a hereditary territory."
"Just let him surrender to Princess Rex. There is more land in the north, so give him a larger piece of land. Aini, why not be a baron here, right?"
"Baron? What a joke? I'm a magician!"
"Eni... you have changed." Salin saw that Eni was a little ruthless and sighed. How decisive Ani was at the time, but now he was like a mature and steadfast guy.
"I... have to consider my parents, they have done too much for me." Aini's tone became heavy. After hearing Aini's words, Salin didn't know what to say for a moment. If his parents were still there, he would definitely have the same idea as Aini.
The room was quiet, and the baron waiting outside was sweating constantly on such a cold day. The people in the room could determine his fate, but those people had long forgotten that he was still waiting here.
"Hey, I'll trade fairly, sign a contract with this baron. Rex will be back soon. At that time, I'll give him a hereditary fief in the north, just as large as possible. How can I say that the land there can produce some food in a year? I don't use robbery."
Aini thought about it, but could only grit his teeth and said, "Okay, then I will do this with you. The two great magicians, the Grand Duke Phoenix, may not dare to cause any storm."
"Just understand, the palace mage will support Rex. Don't tell anyone about this to others, remember this in the future." Salin directly woke up Aini. Even if the Grand Duke of Phoenix attacked Shenlin Town for this matter, he would not get a mage. Without the support of the mage, it was just an army, Rex would not have to worry too much.
Aini was smart enough, and when Salin said that, he immediately understood it.
"Yeah? It seems that the baron is still waiting outside!" Salin suddenly shouted.
"Ah? I thought you were deliberately letting him out and scaring him." Aini's answer made Salin laugh and cry. Although he had the power of a superior, he was still a newly adult man after all, and he had not really experienced what others thought of him. If he didn't speak, how could the baron dare to leave?
"Poor Baron, let him come in." Salin raised his voice and dispersed the clouds created by the cloud movement, saying, "Baron, please come in."
A short sentence made the baron waiting outside feel like he was amnesty. The feeling of being worried outside was even more uncomfortable than killing him. It was so unlucky. After waiting for a long time, he was afraid that he would go crazy.
The door creaked and was pushed open. Salin and Aini looked out the door at the same time. They saw a middle-aged man with sweat on his face. The man was dressed more fancy than the actors on the stage. The blonde hair on his forehead was already pressed against his eyebrows because he sweated too much. The only problem with the baron's outfit was that he was wearing a formal dress but did not wear a sword.
