Kroni immediately sat up straight, and the first task immediately fell on his head. This was his first task, and he vowed to perform well.
King Diablo looked at his attitude at this time with satisfaction, and said: "Your mission is to wipe out the bandits on Black Wind Mountain. Try to capture them as much as possible. They can still be sold for a lot of money."
Kroni was stunned...
Is this task too difficult? Black Wind Mountain? It seems to be the most dangerous place in the Bahuo Kingdom. The bandits there are also ferocious people. Not only are they powerful in combat, but they are also numerous in number. They do not have tens of thousands of troops.
It is simply difficult to eradicate.
Could it be said that because of this mission, His Majesty will let me command an army of 10,000 people? Isn't this an honor too great?
Croni's face showed joy and he tried to ask: "Your Majesty, I wonder which legion you want me to command?"
"Huh? Legion?" Diablo looked at him doubtfully, "There is no legion. They are all moving towards the Kingdom of Vali. You can only rely on yourself for this mission.
But don’t worry, I’ll give you a month, which is plenty of time. As long as you complete it well, I’ll give you a baronetcy.”
No legion? Only one month left?
Kroni suddenly felt cold in his heart. Are you asking me to go up the mountain alone? Even if you give me 100 years, I can't take it down.
At this time, Kroni realized how difficult this task was, and looked at His Majesty with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, am I the only one to go? Then I really can't take it down."
For the sake of his own life, Croni was ready to turn down the task, even if this was an excellent opportunity to be promoted to a peerage.
You must know that if you want to advance to the title of nobility, you cannot advance at all without more than ten years of hard work and a lot of wealth. You can only rely on the accumulation of one generation after another.
To become the king's vassal directly like this and open up the ladder to climb up is a rare occurrence in a thousand years. For this reason, he had previously laughed at Qin Feng.
Now it seems that Kroni has figured it out. His majesty's missions are all narrow escapes. It is enough to complete one of them. If he continues, who knows how difficult it will be.
King Diablo looked at him calmly, "I'll give you another 5,000 gold coins, and you can recruit a team of adventurers yourself."
Seeing that Croni wanted to say something else, Diablo interrupted him directly, "That's it, the meeting is over. I look forward to good news from you."
Diablo left just like that, and everyone else stood up. Croni quickly grabbed the businessman Berger. He had a smile on his face, and it was easy to communicate with him at first sight.
"Lord Berger, you see, these 5,000 gold coins are indeed a lot.
However, I can only recruit more than 5,000 ordinary adventurers. If they are elites, it will be several times more expensive. If I want to wipe out the entire Black Wind Mountain bandits, I simply don’t have enough funds...
If a few more people die, I will go bankrupt, so how can I fight?"
Berger sat down calmly, listened quietly to Croni's troubles, and asked: "Do you know why His Majesty the King invited you here?"
Croni shook his head in confusion, and Berger explained with a smile, "Because you worked hard to become Baron Qin Feng's attendant, but you became Count Kanu's knight, and finally helped Baron Qin Feng defeat Count Kanu.
of power.
Therefore, His Majesty thinks you are very capable.
But you have to remember that our small group never cares about birth. As long as you have the ability, His Majesty is willing to give you a chance. If you don't seize it, then next time, there will be no seat for you here, just like Qin Feng
Like a baron."
The pupils in Kroni's eyes shrank. He didn't expect that his every move would be seen by the king, and he was also shocked by the other party's intelligence system.
"So, those who are capable can handle everything by themselves." After Berger finished speaking, he left with a smile.
Kroni was left sitting there alone with a confused look in his eyes.
"What should I do? If I fail to complete the task, my title will have nothing to do with me for the rest of my life."
He held his head with both hands and twisted his blue hair into a bird's nest. "What to do, what to do? What to do..."
Suddenly, he paused and thought of someone, "Baron Qin Feng, maybe he can help me."
Then he left the study and hurried out of the palace.
Gravel Square, the castle hall of Ningtianbao.
The general guards came in carrying boxes of magic cores, some of which were brought from the mist town, and the other part were purchased with the 10,000 gold coins given by King Diablo.
As the wooden box is opened, the colorful magic core inside evaporates instantly, and countless fluorescent lights blend into the ground, walls, and desks.
Qin Feng walked to the main seat and turned on the light screen. The aura points displayed on it were rising steadily.
It didn't stop until it reached 20,000 spiritual energy points.
"Repair the blacksmith shop."
With no intention of continuing to store, Qin Feng immediately clicked on the damaged blacksmith shop on the light screen.
Rumble…
Suddenly there was the sound of rolling stones outside, causing the castle hall underground to shake slightly.
"Is there such a big movement?" Qin Feng looked at the dust falling on the ceiling of the hall in surprise.
"It seems that I have to be more careful next time and not let Diablo discover the secrets here."
This kind of shaking will continue for about a day. It's okay at night, no one will come here, but during the day, there might be adventurers sneaking here to hunt.
In order to prevent the secrets here from being discovered, Qin Feng immediately ordered the generals and guards, "Go out and check. If you encounter adventurers, drive them away. But if you see the scene here, show no mercy and kill without mercy."
Because this is already private territory, according to the country's laws, it is reasonable for an unidentified person to be killed by the lord if he breaks into the noble's territory.
In this regard, Qin Feng was not afraid of being punished by the king for killing the adventurer.
"yes."
Then all the generals and guards immediately ran out and divided into four teams to patrol in four directions. While maintaining contact with Qin Feng, they cleared away the surrounding monsters.
For this reason, Qin Feng's talent types and talent points are also growing rapidly.
Qin Feng sat alone in the empty castle hall, with only torches stuck on the surrounding walls as the only lighting tool here.
The index finger of his right hand tapped the half-broken tabletop regularly, making a "dong-dong-dong" sound.
"By building a blacksmith shop first, you can create a batch of armor first. With the armor, you can gain the trust of those nobles. As long as they believe that I can make weapons, they will be willing to lend me money."
Qin Feng smiled proudly, "As long as we gather the financial resources of all the nobles, Ningtian Castle can complete the highest level of construction.
When the Golden Cicada Battleship or the Sky Battleship appears, I will be able to leave this world and find my original body.
Snake of Chaos, wait for me, I'm coming to find you..."
When he was thinking about the future, a general guard contacted him through the spiritual network and said, "Master, we met Kroni. He is looking for you and says he wants to discuss a business with you."
