The late spring cold has passed in the Northland in April and May, and the knights in the team are not very sensitive to this change in temperature. By the time they reach the knight level, their physiques have basically entered the extraordinary realm, and they are a little bit immune to the cold and heat.
, the temperature difference of more than ten degrees is nothing to them, but it is still a little colder for Messiah who grew up in the royal capital. Fortunately, Senna was prepared for it and gave Messiah the opportunity as soon as she left Zhenbeiguan.
Ya put on a slightly thicker coat.
Little Blake also put on a coat after leaving Zhenbeiguan. The boy was reluctant at first, but finally put on more clothes under Richard's strict order. With just his single coat, he rode all the way to Ironwood City.
If so, I'm afraid you might get sick before you even start to adapt to the environment.
The surrounding scenery became more and more familiar, the roads became wider and wider, and finally the outline of Ironwood City gradually became clear. Richard, who had left the Northland for more than a month, finally returned to his loyal Hunter Territory.
"Honey, we're home..."
Richard opened the curtain of the carriage and said to Messiah who was taking a nap in the carriage.
…
"Come on, Richard, you have to have a drink with your uncle tonight!"
Richard held the wine glass and dealt with the guests. Because of the long distance, Richard was in a hurry for the grand wedding in the royal capital. None of the Hunter family members or the nobles attached to the Hunter family attended.
.
After returning to Ironwood City, I have to make up for it. If you don't have a cocktail party for this kind of thing, how can you unite your subordinates.
"Master Richard has brought glory to our Northland again this time. Let's see who dares to call us Northland barbarians in the future!"
Baron Band came up, held the wine glass and saluted Richard, and then drank it all in one gulp. Richard took a small sip, which was considered as a favor. In fact, after reaching the knight level, it is difficult to get drunk with a little wine, not to mention
Richard is now a master of the earth level. Even if he drinks up a wine cellar, it is just a few more trips to the toilet. However, controlling the amount of drinking is a habit that Richard has always maintained, and as long as he gives his men some face, he must always
In this harmonious atmosphere, his different statuses are shown.
"When people praise you, they also praise you Lord Richard. Even though you, Baron Band, have gone to the royal capital, you are still a barbarian in their eyes."
At this time, Viscount Nader also came over with a cup. Now in the eyes of others, Baron Band and Viscount Nader are the two big losers under Richard. Not only did they surrender early, but they also shamelessly licked everything.
Going to the extreme, Baron Bender not only sent all his children of school age to Ironwood City Academy, but also moved his family directly out of the castle to live in Ironwood City. He also offered to hand over the castle to the management of the Hunter family. Viscount Nader
Not to be outdone, they also moved to Ironwood City, and even took the initiative to bring their own children to join the Ironwood City Guards after the orc attack, acting as pawns under Richard. The behavior of these two people can be regarded as raising the standards for surrender.
It's so high that even if you want to imitate it, you can't be cruel. For the time being, these two are the only ones competing.
"Then according to what you said, you, Viscount Nader, are still a barbarian when you go to the royal capital."
"Hehe, if you want to be a barbarian, just be a barbarian. Wherever Master Richard points his hand, I, the barbarian, will hit you."
Nader's words actually imply that he, a northern barbarian, only recognizes Richard's orders and can ignore anyone, even the king. Viscount Nader sees the strength of the Hunter family even more clearly than Ren.
, Sky Knight, Red Dragon, Earth Knight, and the recent Ms. Moriel are not fake. There are not so many strong people in the kingdom.
Now, because his eldest son Clayman joined the family earlier, and the Hunter family had a shortage of talents in the early days, a knight-level man has been promoted to the position of flag captain this time, and is now serving under Ms. Moriel.
Most of the nephews and nephews of the Nader family also studied at Ironwood City College. It can be said that the Nader family is completely tied to the Hunter family. If Richard wanted to rebel today, Viscount Nader would have no choice but to follow with weapons.
.
"I…"
Baron Bender didn't expect that Viscount Nader could be so shameless. He didn't know how to win back the city. He couldn't say "Me too", right?
"Okay, okay, you two..."
At the critical moment, Richard still had to smooth things over a little and give the two of them a step down to avoid embarrassment. After all, these two nobles were the most active in being a lackey for Richard, so they still had to show it.
Pay some attention to yourself.
The two people's full investment is not unrewarded. Richard understands better than anyone the principle of buying horse bones for a thousand dollars. The mansions installed in Ironwood City and the priority allocation of resources are all real benefits that everyone can see.
Yes, the benefits gained naturally strengthened the determination of the two families to tie up with the Hunter family.
After Baron Band and Viscount Nader, two veterans, met with Richard, some of the new nobles who had defected to the Hunter family came up and expressed their congratulations to Richard one by one.
Regardless of whether he was forced or not, Richard still gave him face, a few words of encouragement and a bunch of carrots.
"Richard, where is Messiah?"
Viscount Sauter, who had drank to his heart's content, finally turned his attention back to Richard, and asked Messiah as soon as he opened his mouth. He still paid a lot of attention to it.
"She and her mother went down to rest first."
Messiah was a little tired from the long journey. After her appearance at the beginning of the banquet, she was rushed to rest by Richard. She was probably being pulled by Richard's mother, Mrs. Kelly, to keep in touch with her at the moment. As soon as Richard returned to Beijing
Everything is waiting for him, and he can no longer spend all day with Messiah.
"Then you should go back early to accompany Messiah, as long as you have dad here."
At times like this, Viscount Sauter always seems to be very weak. The first protagonist who can bring these nobles together is Richard. If Richard really leaves, the atmosphere will probably drop a few degrees.
Richard nodded towards Viscount Sauter without expressing anything clearly. Viscount Sauter was also very enthusiastic for three seconds, and he turned around and started drinking with the two brothers around him.
"Master Richard, you are so blessed. No wonder you are willing to spend a month to marry such a beauty."
It was Moriel who spoke. Moriel, who had put on a formal dress, looked extremely cool and noble. In addition to various nobles, the Hunter family would definitely be involved in such a big event as Richard marrying the princess, including Moriel and Ron.
This kind of system hero also needs to be added.
Moriel is obviously no stranger to such occasions. As a powerful lord who once unified Negan, Moriel still needs to win over a group of subordinates although she has a powerful dragon army. After all, in addition to profit, some regular activities can also be appropriate.
Keep in touch.
"This trip to the royal capital has yielded unexpected results."
"Are you referring to the Dragon Army's military expenditure?"
Moriel knew that the Dragon Army she led could complete the expansion this time because Richard made a windfall from the capital to have the funds. He also very arrogantly asked the Dragon Army to build it according to Moriel's ideas, and the expenditure was higher than that of Fei Xiong.
The army was even taller, which allowed Moriel's dragon army to take shape much faster than before. In more than a month, the people and equipment were ready, and under Moriel's training, it even looked a bit like it.
"More than that, you will understand in a few days."
Seeing the proud look on Richard's face, Moriel wanted to complain a few words about this guy who was just a hands-off shopkeeper, but she suppressed her words and did not continue. She just raised her cup to signal to Richard that this time
He raised his glass in a dignified manner and drank the wine in one gulp.
"How is the current training situation of Long Army?"
Richard had great hopes for Long Jun, and he talked about Long Jun's training for a few words.
"It's not bad. If you train for another month, you should be able to compare with the Hell Cave Man. In two days, you can hand over the Red Dragon to me. I'm going to train them to fight in coordination with the giant dragon."
What does it mean to be comparable to a hell caveman? Richard didn't know for a moment if Moriel was being sarcastic. This thing is a first-level promotion unit in the dungeon. The name sounds quite domineering, but it is actually a fifth-level warrior.
Scumbag, basically the weakest level one soldier.
"Most people here have the same physique as cavemen."
Moriel seemed to notice Richard's hesitation, so she opened her mouth to explain to Richard.
Richard felt relieved after thinking about it. He couldn't always use game thinking to think about things in the real world.
…
In the Orc Kingdom, when the situation at Longxing Pass was tense, three elite regiments that had always been fighting on the front line of Longxing Pass were secretly mobilized. The Longxing Pass Corps, which had been suppressed in the pass by a large-scale increase in troops by the orcs recently, did not notice the elite orcs for a moment.
of mobilization.
"Her Majesty Adelillo, our troops are already in place. They are all the most elite warriors."
The god's messenger Adrilo frowned, looked at the tens of thousands of orcs in front of him and said:
"Why have so many people been transferred? I can't protect such a large area."
"Our soldiers can stand tighter and take turns receiving protection. There is no problem at all."
Of course it is false that there is no problem at all. In the harsh climate of the snowfield, if there is a wind disaster, even if you can take turns to accept the protection of the Vulcan Cover, there will be a lot of losses. However, in order to send more troops at a time, the orcs
Obviously, we are also prepared to bear some losses.
Seeing that the orcs were willing to take risks, Adelillo didn't care about the orcs' losses anymore. He nodded and turned up a orb in his hand. A heat wave visible to the naked eye instantly rose up from his hand, quickly covering three thirds of it.
An army of orcs, and the strange phenomena in the sky made these elite warriors who were accustomed to life and death look up to watch.
"Okay, team, stand tighter and hurry up and set off."
Three legions and 60,000 elite orcs, under the command of the general of the orc expeditionary force, the protector warrior Geert, passed through the Cold Wind Canyon and embarked on a journey to the Northland.
