Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 580: Corner of the kingdom

The original geographical location of the Freedom City was exactly on the central axis between Allantis, the main city of the Northern Freedom Alliance, and Byron Bian, the country of knights. Sol and Lubiana set off from the east gate of the Liberty City, and their destination is in the northeast of the northern border.

After more than ten days of unhurried journey, the two arrived at a small village near the sea on the northern border, called Twilight Foothills.

The name of the village is magnificent, but the size of the entire village is actually less than 30 households. Usually the names of places on the continent have words like sun, moon or twilight, and you know that they are passed down through the long river of time and passed down from the Guangxi period.

After all, in today's dark calendar, the four fields are boundlessly dark, where can I see the ghost of twilight.

As for the word “foothill”, it’s because this small village is a bit similar to the city of freedom in topography, just at the foot of an unnamed mountain range. The mountain range is just between the small village and the endless sea. You need to go around the foot of the mountain to get to the beach.

The arrival of the two black-robed monsters, Sol and Lubiana, did not cause much disturbance. It seems that the small village occasionally receives business travelers and adventurers who pass by. But the basic guard is definitely indispensable, after all, the two of them belonged to strangers.

I didn't care about the gaze the villagers looked at, nor were they busy looking for any maze. After the two of Sol crossed the village guards and entered the village, Sol went around the village roughly. This will become part of the Freedom City, or a stronghold.

Sol doesn't think that his takeover is a kind of plunder, at least for the residents here, they can live a richer, safer and more secure life in the Free City. After experiencing the scenery of the territory, I believe they will not miss the poverty here again.

There are nearly a hundred people in the entire village. There is a certain number of wheat fields planned in the village, and there is a small market selling some daily necessities.

Saul is more satisfied that there is a thick solid wood retaining wall around the village, at least his own people can spend less time on the back-up defense. The development of the entire village looks pretty good, and the average dilapidated village will only erect a simple wooden fence.

The residents here all live in their own cellars at night, and during the day they return to the ground through the lights of each other, but these alone are certainly not enough to escape the interference of the dead. The small village must have its own eliminators, I don't know how many there are.

When it was time to watch, Saul called over 13 or 14-year-old teenagers in two villages, and one of them issued a silver coin to start inquiring about the specific situation of the village. Lubiana stood aside with her hands in her arms and expressed her dissatisfaction. Why didn't she ask herself? Are those two silver coins bad for yourself?

When Sol asked about the adventurous areas around, Xiao Shiji was even more dissatisfied. She felt that Sol did not believe what she said.

The reason why Sol asked again was not because he had any doubts about Lubiana, he just wanted to hear what the locals knew about the maze, whether they really didn't know anything about it. The two teenagers said they knew the maze, but few could find it.

The locals called the maze the ‘non-existent maze’, and this strange name aroused Sol’s interest. After asking carefully, the young man answered that the entrance to the maze was invisible, and sometimes local people would stray in and disappear, so there was such a strange name.

"Since the entrance of the maze is invisible, how do you know that it is a maze and nothing else?" Sol asked.

"Because the grandfather's generation in the village said this, we knew that there was a maze around the village, but we couldn't see it. It is said that the village had invited adventurers to search for it in the early years, but found nothing. "One of the teenagers replied.

Saul subconsciously tilted his head to look at Lubiana, and the little shiitake mushroom was almost poking into the sky while holding his chin. Well, it seems that Lubiana said that only she can find the maze, it shouldn't be a lie, maybe she has some special means of finding it.

Without struggling with the problem of the maze, Sol asked more about other things, and the answers he got were quite satisfactory.

Usually a territory belongs to a small collection, which consists of two to a few villages and towns. Among them, the towns with better and more prosperous terrain will be designated as the main town and become the seat of the lord. Better large territories will also contain cities, as well as a main city.

The village of Twilight Foothills, strictly speaking, belonged to the border of Byron Bian’s kingdom, and was originally a fief of a baron named Creighton. It is said that the baronial title was acquired by Cliton's grandfather after offering a fortune to the king, and the hereditary fell on Cliton's head.

This fief is located on the border and is pitifully small. There is only a small town including two villages including the foothills of the Twilight Mountains. Baron Creighton naturally lives in the only small town. Then, in recent years, it is said that the town where the baron was located has been destroyed.

The specific reason is because it is separated from the foothills of the Twilight Mountains, and the spread is very vague. Some said that robbers came, some said that the baron took his family to a more prosperous city, and some said that ghosts caused the destruction of the territory. Sol believes the last one is more credible.

But this is not the point. The point is that with the destruction of the main town, another small village in the southern foothills of the Twilight Mountains disappeared into death overnight. Therefore, the entire territory is left alone with an offshore Twilight Foothill, which is in a state of disorganization.

Strictly speaking, it is unorganized. If this happens during the Guangming calendar period or the earlier kingdom calendar period, if the baron has no heir, the king will reclaim the territory and use it for a new reward, and the territory will soon be A new owner arrives.

However, in the dark calendar, especially the ghosts raging today, with the destruction of the other two villages and towns in the territory, let alone the people from the kingdom reclaiming the territory, even businessmen and adventurers hardly go here. The foothills of the Twilight Mountains are basically self-generated Self-destructive isolation.

This makes Saul very satisfied, at least one less territorial war to grab territory. Of course, even if you want to fight the Freedom City, you are definitely not afraid, but it is just a little troublesome to mobilize soldiers and food. Now that there is less trouble, just accept the migrant population directly.

In terms of migration, Sol believes that there should be little resistance. After all, this village is basically self-sufficient. The nearest human settlement is also a month away, but who dares to run around in the wilderness today? There will be no development if you are stuck in a difficult place.

The only minor problem is that, strictly speaking, it belongs to Byron Bian's land, and Sol's presence is equivalent to digging a small corner of the Byron Bian royal family. In the future, if the village develops, it is inevitable that Byron Bian’s royal family will be jealous and send someone to the house.

It can only be ridiculed. In today's mainland environment, no one can fight a war, or even if it is won, it will not be worth the loss. So right now is a good time to mess up the hills. Although Thor is not very enthusiastic about enclosures, it's not the same if there is a demon soul here.

When the news comes out, how could the Byron Bian royal family not be jealous? Saul estimated that the demon soul will become more and more expensive in the future, and it is estimated that a demon soul producing area will not be changed for a gold mine. No, if the situation worsens, a magic crystal or even a longan mine will be useless.

Thinking of the prospect of Thor is also a little eager, Liberty City drank the soup first, facing Byron Bian is a problem for the future.

It is estimated that it is impossible for Byron Bian's army to come to the battle, and in the end they can only send people to talk about it eagerly. If Princess Caroline or other royal shiitake mushrooms come, grab a small **** and finish. If you want to come to a prince, then... well, the dog's head is swollen and then sent away.

I am a robber, who am I afraid of? Sol himself thought about it and laughed. After the information was asked, Sol waved his hand to let the two village boys leave.

"Enough question now? My lord." Lubiana was very angry at seeing Sol's silly look.

"Let's go, this demon sister, it's time for you to perform next." Saul smiled and made a sound of chasing small animals away.

Lubiana didn't hesitate, turned around and walked out of the village, Thor followed with a step. The next thing was that Lubiana took Sol to inspect the goods to see how well the maze was and whether it could meet expectations, but Sol felt wrong after walking for a while.

Little Shiitake said that only she could find the maze, but the question is, are you looking for it? Others look for a place they are familiar with, either following the mark or using some special means, but Lubiana does nothing and leads Thor around in the wilderness.

Repeatedly walking around is no longer a part of the search, but your search is too perfunctory, right? Lubiana would stop from time to time, poking her head and standing in the dark wilderness and looking around. What mushrooms are you looking at in the darkness on all sides?

In other words, if you can see with human eyes, do you still have a fart? I might as well send more people to watch. In Saul’s imagination, since the villagers rumored the maze so mysterious, it should be invisible to the eyes.

"Huh~ I'm exhausted, I don't know if I can find it today." After walking for a while, the small mushroom stopped to fan the wind with his small hand.

"Stop bullshit, if you can't find today's dinner, just watch me eat." Sol twitched at the corner of his eyes, suspecting that Shiitake was acting.

Then after a while, the little shiitake mushrooms were too lazy to look around.

"It's nearby, soon." Little Shiitake said suddenly.

Sol looked inexplicable and looked at the dark wilderness on all sides. Why is this nearby without even looking? Is it relying on the perception of rank, but it doesn't make sense? Isn't his sixth-order perceptual ability comparable to that of a shiitake mushroom monster? The big devil expressed dissatisfaction.

"Lord Lord must be very curious how I found it?" Little Shiitake suddenly asked.

"Hmm." Saul snorted badly.

"Ten silver coins, just now you paid two silvers for asking the villagers about the news. This news is not small for me." The mushroom monster stretched out a small hand.

Sol looked at the little hand that was about to poke his face, and instantly laughed angrily, and decisively pulled the mushroom monster over and pressed it on the tree.

"Isn't it easy to want money? After in-depth exchanges with Liu Ying, it is basically polite to pay for the night. Come on, little shiitake mushrooms, when we feel each other, money matters." Sol squeezed the little shiitake mushrooms. On the tree, reached out to lift the skirt under her black robe.

"You are shameless and indecent!" Lubiana blushed and flung away, trying to slap Sol on her backhand. She has been walking around on the mainland for a long time, and she naturally knows what the so-called drifting warbler means. The big devil stepped aside and pressed the small shiitake mushrooms on the tree again.

"You were in the hotel before, didn't you look like you could dedicate yourself for money at any time?" Saul smiled jokingly.

"Lord Lord, please come in if you want to come in, but in the future, you may have to add a chair at the table in your Lord's Mansion. It just so happens that I don't need to go to any other spirit removal associations to suffer." Lubiana will suddenly say when she is quiet. He turned his head and smiled and provoked Saul.

What am I... come in? What come in? This little shiitake mushroom is very threatening, but I have to say that Sol really can't help it. Seeing the arrogance of the mushroom monster made the big devil very angry, but he really won't mess around, otherwise it's not a chair.

If the news spreads and others don't know, Salia will definitely run to the Lord's Mansion to grab a seat.
