"What is the most important thing now?" After Feiqi returned to the palace, he shut down the idle people and convened the "first imperial meeting". Those who attended the meeting could count it with both hands.
Next to Feich was Shanny, then Eddie, who were also the only women in the imperial meeting. Tron sat opposite Shanny as the commander of the Knights of Hell, next to Feich at the same distance. His lower head was Chancellor Goode and Minister of Intelligence Mathers. Well, I was wrong just now, and I counted it with one hand.
"The treasury needs money." Good said: "Your Majesty, I am forgiving that your strength can defeat thousands of troops. We have witnessed this with our own eyes today. But your strength cannot serve everyone, and the treasury needs money to develop. The sooner this matter is resolved, the better. If it is late, you may miss the opportunity."
Mathers took out a long list at the right time and passed it to Fitch through Good's hand. "This is a part of the noble coalition, and all the nobles of all sizes have been recorded." Mathers laughed rare once, but it seemed a bit sinister at first glance. He said: "Their troops are buried outside the city, and their castles and territory are waiting to be received. If we don't go, sooner or later the bandits will go."
"We must go there, but after this failure, they will not even be able to win the robbers." Feiqi finally nodded. "The winner must look like a winner. It is better to fill the treasury first, but the key is how big the area we can control. Mathers, how are your station station arranged?"
"I have summoned all the spies who performed well in the past. There are currently 300 people and are still receiving training, but they can be dispatched and then studied while working, ensuring that they will not delay trouble. According to a group of five people, there are a total of sixty groups. Your Majesty, if the number of people is too small, it will not work and cannot supervise each other."
Feiqi thought for a while and said, "First follow a group of fifteen soldiers and twenty servants in each group, so that we can effectively target a castle and its surrounding areas. So we can first set our target on twenty castles. You can find the relatively close and suitable nobles from the list. Don't worry about their defensive abilities."
Therefore, the first thing after victory was set as "occupation", and these twenty castles and the aristocratic territories they represented became the earliest targets of occupation. News on the battlefield had spread, and the residents of Tawugang City had already received bonuses from the gambling game, and I believe that the nobles already knew what choice they should make.
From the perspective of the winner, this is to harvest his own spoils; from the perspective of the loser, it is that Feiqi just killed the pillars of their family and then came to the door to kill them. In order to improve the work efficiency of each occupation team and avoid them from slapping their words and not getting the respect they deserve, Feiqi decided to take action himself. He ordered twenty teams to set off at the same time. He would make plans based on the distance, and then teleport to these castles for "persuasion".
Many nobles have become frightened birds, hiding in castles or manors with high-walled arrow towers, seeking a false sense of security. Some have completely given up resistance to the outside world, and are concentrating on internal struggles, so as to get more things for themselves when they escape. This is the scene at the Earl of Valen's house.
The Earl used a magnificent castle, located at the top of a 100-meter hill, overlooking and monitoring the woods, fields and three small villages not far away. The Earl Valen lived here for generations, and their castle was not broken. However, the two blood-colored meteors did not visit this place, which actually reflects some problems.
Now, the city wall is unguarded, and the castle gate is open. People riding horses, towing cars, and carrying bags are stepping on the suspension bridge, and they are running out in a panic. They pass by Feiqi. Some people cursed Feiqi for being blocked here, aren't they looking at it? Some people said to him with excitement: "Hurry, there are still inside, go get it!"
These people obviously came to the castle to make a fortune, and it may not be the first wave. Feiqi sideways and lets them go over, and then enters the inside of the castle. It is even more messy inside. Almost all the buildings are open, and all the windows are the same. From time to time, something flies out of these holes and throws it on the ground.
Feich did not see the corpse, and there was no blood on the ground, which means that the robbers were not blocked at all, but had made a fine division of labor. Where is the Earl of Valen? Feich raised his left hand and released the fantasy snake Coktal. It quickly turned around the castle and found the Earl of Valen who was locked in the dungeon.
Every noble castle was the core location where they ruled with violence, and dungeons have always been one of the standard features. Feiqi came to the west side of the courtyard, heading down from the open ground iron door, and went deeper along the steps. The narrow, rugged and difficult stone steps ended abruptly at a wooden door reinforced with iron bars, and a heavy iron lock was buckled on the door. This was probably the only place where the entire castle was closed.
Feiqi stretched out his finger and gently stroked the door lock. As the rune spell drifted out, the lock opened with a snap. Pulling open the reinforcement door and stepping on the straw with a rotten smell on the ground, Feiqi entered the dungeon. There are six iron cage cells, separated by stone walls. In the deepest room, Earl Valen was sitting silently on the stone bed, facing the half of the sausage in his hand, dazed.
"How did you get this way?"
Earl Valen shook his body, then slowly raised his head, his face full of incredible expressions. "Master Fei... Lord Hall, no, he should be called Your Majesty." He threw away the sausage and rushed to the iron railing: "Your Majesty! I surrender! If I hadn't been locked up here, I would have gone to Tawugang City to kneel in front of you! I will be loyal to you!"
"I know, the offer I give you is still there, but it seems that you can't use it." Feiqi bounced his finger, and the prison door was slammed open, and then fell to the ground with no power, and the Earl Valen was bounced back to the stone bed by this force.
"Your Majesty, I..." Earl Valen's eyes were depressed, his pale hair fell down in disarray, and his hands were holding his knees tightly. "I should have been more decisive. I should have agreed directly when I was in the palace, but I missed the best opportunity. You are right, I am indeed useless. Now, my castle should have been looted, right?"
"Well, it's almost done. I saw them holding a lot of things away." Feiqi pinched his chin and asked, "At that time, several other houses in the palace, they immediately entered the palace to express their obedience as soon as they got the news of my victory. I haven't seen you come, so I came to you. Judging from this situation, don't the people in your castle know that you are standing on my side?"
Earl Valen blushed and shook his head in shame. "I was completely killed by hesitation, and I did not announce the agreement I reached with you until the end. Moreover, I did not come to the battlefield in person, but sent my second son to watch the battle. If I go, I will go to Tawugang City immediately, instead of being secretly returned by my son, imprisoning me, and then taking the lead in stealing all the wealth."
"How many sons do you have? Where are your knights?"
"I am locked up here, and I can only guess what's happening outside. Your Majesty, I only ask you for one thing."
Feiqi shook his head: "I am not your killer and will not help you clear the portal. But I can find you a place to live in Tawugang City so that you can spend your old age. This is also a reward for your previous idea of ​​surrender."
"Your Majesty, I dare not ask you to kill people. I only need the knights and sheriffs who preside over justice to bring punishment to those bastards. I want to ask you to save someone." Earl Valen said: "If there is one person in this family worth saving, it is my second grandson, Dart Valen III. He was a smart and obedient child, very kind, he was the first child of my eldest son and the heir to my earl title. He lost his father since he was a child, and there may be no one in this turmoil..."
"Grandpa, are you in there?"
A slightly childish cry came from the direction of the prison door, and there was a little anxiety in the voice. When the Earl Valen heard it, he immediately jumped up from the bed board, pushed Feiqi away and ran towards the door: "Dart! I'm here! Let me see!"
A swaying fire appeared in the direction of the stairs, and then a black-haired boy was seen running down the candlestick. He was about ten years old, wearing a very unfit large linen dress, simply tied with a belt, and slippers under his feet. The boy ran down all the way, stumbled, but carefully protected the cloth bag in his hand, and would rather bump his shoulder against the wall than touch the package.
"Dart!" Earl Valen hugged his grandson tightly, then patted him on his body, confirming that he was not injured. "It's good that you're fine! They didn't bully you, right?"
"They didn't find me. Last night I got up to relieve my hands and heard a strange sound in the castle, so I went to check it out. I saw you tied your mouth and took your hands away, so I hid it immediately." Dart spoke not fast, but he spoke very well. "I didn't dare to contact them, so I secretly took a piece of servant's clothes and smeared my face to find an opportunity to slip out of the broken wall. Grandpa, I saw that they were just tied up you and thought they should be locked up and would not kill you immediately. So I went out to hide for a while and came back when the chaos started."
"I didn't love you in vain, I didn't love you in vain." Valen cried and took the candlestick and put it on one side, put the package on the other side, just holding his grandson. Dart looked at Fitch from grandpa's shoulder, and then asked in a low voice: "Grandpa, who is this?"
"Oh, I forgot. This is Feige St. Hall, His Majesty the King. Come and say hello to him and then swear allegiance."
"You are now smart and don't hesitate. But I am neither the king nor the child needs to swear allegiance." Feiqi shook his finger: "The Valen family has no value to me anymore. I will soon accept this land and this castle. Instead of keeping you for trouble, why not kill you here? No one will know."
"No, the goddess will know." Dart shouted, pulling Count Valen hard towards the door. "Go quickly, when you go to a crowded place, this bad guy dares not take action! The king must pay attention to his reputation!"
"Maybe you don't know yet. I just killed thousands of people with my own hands, and my eyelids didn't blink." Feiqi flipped his right hand, and a fireball with extreme heat floated on his palm, casting a terrifying light and shadow on his face. "I haven't smelled what a barbecue child smells!"
"I'll fight with you!" Dart clenched his fists and rushed up, then felt a shadow flashing across the corner of his eyes. The back of his head hurt, and then the world was spinning. He didn't know what happened. Feiqi grabbed his collar with one hand, and wanted to carry him directly, but forgot that his clothes didn't fit. With a click, Dart was provoked. He moaned and gradually woke up again.
"This is a good boy, it seems not their group." Feich said to Earl Valen, "Hold him and I will take you out. Cover his eyes along the way, in case I'm too ruthless to scare him."
"Your Majesty, thank you. I..." Earl Valen suddenly stared at the cloth bag on the ground in a daze, then looked at Dart who woke up and asked, "Good grandson, have you also taken out that thing in the secret room?"
Dart was still a little dizzy, but after hearing this, he squeezed out a smile: "Grandpa, they didn't find it. I took out the thing as you taught me. You said that as long as it is still there, our family will continue to exist."
"Silly kid, what really makes the family exist is people, and His Majesty."
"He is a bad guy, and he is not the king, and he is not His Majesty."
Feiqi laughed twice, then said, "I am not the king, but the emperor, so I am still Your Majesty. And I am already the emperor of this land, so you don't need to be loyal to me, I will protect you."
"Grandpa, we can't believe him completely." Dart whispered in the earl's ear, covering his mouth with his hands.
Earl Valen burst into tears and laughed loudly. "I still have a vision, and I found the only treasure in my family." He picked up the cloth bag and opened it with his own hands. It was a round container. He took it and turned it to the left and twisted it to the right. After several complicated combinations on the left and right, he opened the container. In the center of the thick velvet pad, a golden egg lay inside.
"This is a golden dragon egg, still alive, but we don't have the strength to hatch it, and now it seems that we have no ability to raise it. Your Majesty, you can defeat the noble coalition, and you are undoubtedly the strongest person in the world. I offer this dragon egg to you, hoping to get shelter."
Feiqi frowned and carefully took the dragon egg over. From his palm, the eggshell gave him a feeling of a strong and condensed fire element power. Even if it was not a dragon, it must be a very powerful creature. "Are you sure this is a golden dragon? The church spent a lot of energy and found only a few dragons, all of which were blue dragons and black dragons. It took a lot of effort to correct them. The dragon with kind nature has not seen it for a long time."
"Yes, when the Creator, in the record, handed over the management of the world to the Goddess of the Truth, he took the dragon away. Only a few evil dragons were left behind. This dragon egg was handed over to our family at that time. It was predicted that it would appear again with the birth of the new god, thus bringing the return of the dragon."
