"Baron Dickas is still alive and has successfully passed the winter in the dark forest. However, there is no reply from No. 4, No. 8 and No. 10. Based on this, I think No. 4 failed the mission and is very likely to die.
It is very unlikely that he will be captured by Baron Dickas. I think Baron Dickas’s mission level has been raised to Tam level, and there may be a mysterious person behind him.”
Tam level in their organization means that the task target has strength exceeding that of the Grand Knight.
"Mysterious?...What are you going to do?"
"Regardless of whether there is a mysterious person behind Baron Decas, we have already lost a great knight in the principality and three knight-level killers from him, and we have suffered such huge losses... So I suggest
, give up this mission and admit failure to the host. If the host still insists on hunting Baron Dickas, then the host must increase the reward, in line with the reward of a Tahm-level figure, and organize manpower from several nearby countries at once
Mobilize and concentrate all your forces to deal with Baron Dickas!"
"Does it need to invest so much power? He is just a baron."
"Yes, but according to the news from Patras City, he has just easily defeated a veteran viscount! According to intelligence assessment, there are probably more than ten knights under his command."
"How did he do it?" The voice was very surprised. "The intelligence shows that he has never been an outstanding person before!"
"It's not clear yet! At present, we only know that all these changes occurred after Baron Dickas was driven out of the city of Sayre. There is a possibility that Baron Dickas was in the team on the way to the dark forest.
A mysterious person has been added. This is the only reason that can explain the strange situation of Baron Dickas."
"The mysterious one?"
"If you want to continue hunting Baron Dickas, it is not enough to invest all the conventional forces of our organization. I suggest that you ask No. 0 to join. After all, the only one who can deal with the mysterious one is the mysterious one."
"No!" The voice flatly refused, "We can't take risks!"
The other voice fell silent.
After pondering for a while, the voice of categorical refusal said, "Give up."
"yes!"

…
In the city of Sayre, in the castle where the Odyssey family has stood for many years.
In the meeting hall, Grand Duke Odyssey VII was sitting in front of a simple desk.
On the desk, there are several administrative decrees made of parchment.
A middle-aged man in rich clothes and an aristocratic appearance walked in softly, came to the Grand Duke Odyssey VII, and said, "His Royal Highness, a report from the North."
The Grand Justice of Odyssey VII lowered his head to review the documents. When he heard his words, he did not raise his head and just said, "Speak!"
A simple word, but it carries an undeniable flavor.
This is the kind of thing that can only be said by someone who has been in power for a long time, someone who has been in power for many years.
The middle-aged man was shocked and quickly reported, "Your Highness, a high-quality salt has appeared in the north, as white as snow."
Grand Duke Odyssey said nothing, as if he didn't care at all.
The middle-aged man continued to report, "I heard that this kind of snow salt first appeared in the Patras City of Viscount Green, and then spread to other territories."
Grand Duke Odyssey still didn't react at all.
"However, according to rumors, the source of the snow salt comes from the Dark Forest. To be more precise, it comes from the territory of Baron Dickas. Some people say that Baron Dickas discovered a high-quality salt mine in his territory.
"
This time, Grand Duke Odyssey finally raised his head, his cloudy eyes flashed with light, and he glanced at the middle-aged man calmly, which immediately made the middle-aged man feel a sense of being seen through and uncomfortable.
Feel.
Then the middle-aged man heard Grand Duke Odyssey say unhurriedly, "That's his luck! Buck, I don't want you to get involved in something you don't belong to. This is not a good thing for you!"
A cold sweat broke out from behind the middle-aged man, and he hurriedly said, "I have not done anything to make you unhappy, Your Highness."
The middle-aged man originally wanted to talk about the private fight between Baron Dickas and Viscount Green, but after receiving this warning, he suddenly did not dare to say anything.
"That's good. Let's go out."
"Yes, Your Highness the Grand Duke." The middle-aged man withdrew respectfully.
At this time, a silent smile suddenly appeared on the serious face of Odyssey VII. He whispered to himself, "It took a few months to defeat a veteran Viscount without any backhand ability! It seems that I
It’s right to let you out! Niya, this is my greatest protection for him!”
Grand Duke Odyssey VII fell into memories.

Viscount Green's compromise quickly brought the war to an end.
Under the personal protection of several men sent by William, Viscount Green returned to the city of Patras and quickly regained control of the situation under William's eyes.
The original businessman Hughes was rescued.
Viscount Grien's wife and children were sent to the town of Nisse and accepted the asylum of Baron Decas.
Everything seemed to have returned to calm.
The only unsettling thing is the exchange between the Decas Territory and the Grien Viscount Territory.
Under the incompetent indulgence of Viscount Green, a steady stream of people and resources poured into the Decas territory.
The town of Nisei, the only town in Decas territory, is becoming more and more prosperous.
Outside the town are continuous cultivated fields.
In the town, wooden buildings were completed one after another and stood upright on the straight streets.
Taverns, hotels, chambers of commerce, bathhouses, public toilets, schools, etc. are all available.
The streets are filled with merchants or townspeople who are constantly coming and going.
The influx of people and funds promoted the prosperity of Nisei Town, and the prosperity of Nisei Town further attracted people and funds from outside.
The entire town of Nisei is full of vitality, like the newborn sun.
As the first administrator of Nisei Town, Old John smiled from ear to ear. Various tasks every day made him tired and happy.
However, the constant influx of people also made Old John feel the pressure of public security.
The knights are on standby at any time, and the security team, in addition to constant patrols, has also set up checkpoints at the entrance to the city wall to review people coming and going every day.
For the purpose of generating income, each person entering and leaving the city is charged an entrance fee of one copper copper coin.
It is very cheap and almost everyone can afford it.
So it was implemented without hesitation.
On this day, a strange woman wearing a black robe walked out of the dark forest and suddenly visited the town of Nisei.
"Hey, in just a few years, a small town has sprung up here?" The strange woman didn't look big on the outside, but her tone was old-fashioned.
After she pondered for a while, she walked towards Nisei Town.
