In the west of Bru Principality, at the intersection of the four major principalities, the terracotta plains are filled with fire dragon flowers that remain open all year round. A gust of wind blows, and the strange and tender red petals float into the distance.
The Fire Dragon Territory, the fiefdom of the legendary Stark family, is located on the terracotta plain, and the Fire Dragon City is being built in the center of the terracotta plain. Over the years, the Stark family has thrived and grown in this place.
Nowadays, the strength of the Fire Dragon Territory is at its peak in the principality, and the status of Fire Dragon Marquis Lucius Stark in the Principality of Blue is almost equal to that of the Great Fairer of Blue.
The huge Fire Dragon City lies across the center of the red earth plain. It is the main route for communication between the north and the south and the east and the west. It is also the economic and political core of the entire red earth plain.
At this time, in the tall and magnificent crimson Fire Dragon Castle, a man wrapped up in a black mask suddenly appeared next to the Fire Dragon Marquis who was in his prime!
"Lord Marquis! The plan has begun!" The man in the black mask said with a hoarse voice.
"The Duke of Kane will definitely be defeated this time! Let people invade the Earl of Reagan as soon as possible and wait for the order!" The Fire Dragon Marquis narrowed his light red eyes and said calmly.
"Yes!" The man in the black mask said with some respect.
The Fire Dragon Marquis nodded, then turned his attention to Fisher, who was sitting on the chair in front of him with a worried expression, and said, "Fisher, what are you worried about?"
Fisher is a middle-aged knight with deep blue eyes, extremely rough skin on his face, and a scar as long as his index finger on the right side of his mouth.
Fisher Stark, originally an orphan, was adopted by the former Fire Dragon Marquis and given a surname. Now he is the leader of the Fire Dragon Sword and Shield Knights.
"Lord Marquis! Are you really sure that our ancestor will be present during the war? Our ancestor has not produced a Fire Dragon Mountain Dragon for twenty years?" Fisher said with some concern.
"Don't worry! Our ancestors will definitely appear on the battlefield this time!" Marquis Fire Dragon was not angry because of Fisher's doubts, he just said with certainty.
If Allen were here at this time, he would be able to find out from their unabashed elemental fluctuations that the three in front of him are high-level knights.
…
Unknowingly, the time has arrived at the beginning of March, and it has been almost a year since Allen came to this other world.
In order to infiltrate the other four large villages, Allen specially transferred two hundred shadows from Musen Territory to solve the problem of insufficient shadows on Black Orchid Island.
Of course, this also led to a shortage of personnel in Andy's hands, which slowed down Musen Territory's penetration of other counts.
After arranging the plans for the other four large villages to Shadow, Allen returned to Musen City again. This time when he returned to Musen Territory, Allen only brought Barton with him. As for Bud, Allen left him to protect the military camp and
Taking care of four little coronets.
In addition to dealing with some piled-up matters when Allen returns this time, the most important thing is to officially carry out the mosquito coil trade with Reagan. Now that March has begun to increase in mosquitoes in the south of the mainland, it is a good time to promote mosquito coils.
Moreover, the mosquito coils sold in the first transaction were all within the Earl of Reagan, and at most expanded to the surrounding areas of the Earl of Reagan, so trade could be carried out without sea routes. Now that the Blue Water Caravan has not been established, it has no impact on Allen.
Of course, in addition to the mosquito coil trade, this time Allen will also take a look at the flame rats that have been bred for four months. It is estimated that the flame rats have given birth to baby flame rats, and Allen's Flame Knights are one step closer to being established.
After many round-trip voyages, Captain Gill was already very familiar with the round-trip passage, and it only took Allen two days to return to Musen Territory from Blackland Island.
As soon as Musen No. 1 approached the fishing port, it found several idle wooden boats with many people busy. Shouting and scoldings came from each boat. Allen knew that these were Captain Fran and his old sailors.
We are currently training a group of newbies.
"Lord Viscount! After the successful training of this group of students, the eighteen wooden boats led by Mu Sen will be basically full!" At this time, Jill was also standing next to Allen and said with a smile.
Allen nodded, full of expectations for these rookie sailors. In the future, the expansion of Musen's fleet will still depend on them.
Soon after returning to Musen City, Allen put aside the business matters that needed to be handled personally and hurried to the military camp outside the city. He heard from Butler Kaili that the Flame Rat had been given birth three days ago.
Because the flame rats grew too fast, were very destructive, and were low-level monsters after all, Allen kept them in the military camp after taking them away from Musen Castle last time.
After waving away the saluting soldiers, Allen walked straight into the specially built breeding area in the military camp.
After entering, Allen found three huge iron cages, which were much larger than the ones Allen built at the beginning. They contained three adult flame rats. Two of the cages had nests made of soft grass.
This was specially prepared by the soldiers for the two female rats. After all, the two female rats could not be allowed to give birth to flame rat babies in a cold iron cage.
At this time, the two female flame rats were not in the nest, but were running around in the iron cage. When they found so many people suddenly appearing outside the cage, the female rat, as a mother, was a little anxious.
Since there was no obstruction from the female rat, Allen easily observed the flame rat cubs in the two nests. There were five in the first nest and seven in the second nest, for a total of twelve cubs.
The number of cubs exceeded Allen's expectations. The reason why Allen placed his hope of establishing the Flame Knights on flame rats is because they grow quickly and give birth to many babies. Basically, female rats can give birth to one litter every month.
, from this you can imagine how many flame rats Allen can get in one year.
However, this is not possible for the Crowned Weng, which takes a long time to grow and reproduce. It cannot satisfy Allen's need to build a flying knights in a short time.
Of course, there is a reason why the flame rats have such a terrifying reproductive ability but have not become widespread.
First of all, rat monsters are restricted by natural enemies, and then there are environmental factors. Without enough food, most of the rat babies will starve to death. The last point is that the lifespan of rat monsters is generally not long, most of them only last two years.
These three situations simultaneously curbed the proliferation of rat-like monsters, but the Flame Rats in the Musen Territory do not have these first two situations.
Without natural enemies and hunger, the reproduction rate of flame rats would be extremely terrifying.
From birth to death, flame rats only have two years, and Allen plans to control their survival time to about one year. You must know that the number of female rats giving birth to young rats continues to increase in the previous year, and begins to increase in sequence in the next year.
Reduce the number of baby rats born.
After making a calculation, Allen planned to limit the lifespan of each flame rat to about one year. Flame rats that reach one year old will be slaughtered, and their fur will be used to make elemental equipment, and their blood will be used to make fire elements.
Blood potions and meat are given to the warriors to enhance their strength.
