Empires Start with Lords

Mander knew exactly what that meant.

Ross is more clear: "This means that we will face a more terrifying enemy, the Truman family that controls half of the royal family..."

Mander: "Then what can you do?"

Ross shook his head: "Not yet, but there will always be. Long before I left, scholars have been sent to investigate the real source of Chong Lie Demon. If the source is found, it can go to the place where Chong Lie Demon is actually produced. Send someone to inquire, if it really poses a great threat to us, then it is time for us to send troops to it."

"What?! Are you going to send troops to defeat Truman?! Crazy?"

Mander heard Ross' confident tone, as if he was going to crusade the Truman family.

Mander immediately gasped in fright. Even as the only son of the Duke, the Truman family couldn't imagine how powerful it was.

"So... you really dare to crusade against them, just with your current strength?"

Ross shook his head and said seriously: "Anyway, if I don't attack them today, they will definitely try to hinder my development of the territory, and block all the routines leading to Green Forest, and will send an amazing number of troops to attack. We, we can't sit still."

Mander was stunned, thought for a while, and said, "That means, it's very likely that Truman's ghosts are secretly engaged in by these fighters."

Ross nodded. At this moment, there was a knock on the door. The next moment, a scholar who looked like a scholar appeared at the door wearing a short white robe.

"Dear Lord, after more than ten days of investigation, we finally found the reason why Chong Lie Demon became what it is now."

The scholar said respectfully.

Ross became interested, and moved his eyes to him with interest: "Let's hear it."

The scholar immediately spread out a sheepskin map, and there was a strong aroma on it, reminding Ross that he had not eaten lamb for so long, thinking of the plump and juicy lamb thighs and the melt-in-the-mouth lamb haggis soup.

Ross swallowed the thought that he wanted to eat this map just now, and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that the source of Chong Lie Demon is actually a cursed land?"

Seeing the scholar circle the cursed land with red lines, Ross thought for a while and said.

Mander was surprised: "The Cursed Land? Is it the wasteland you bought with money?"

Ross nodded.

The scholar said: "That's right. Lord Lord, we dissected the dead Chong Lie Demon's corpses and found that there is an inexplicable power in them, and when we went to other places to check, we found that this power comes from The cursed land, and the civilians near Duke Webb's territory hated the cursed land very much, because a mutated beast would appear on the night of the full moon or in winter. These rushing demons are likely to be One of these species of beasts."

Mander, who was beside him, was stunned and murmured, "Is there really an alien beast?!"

The so-called alien beast is a title that has always represented a mutated beast species, and Mander has only heard of it, never seen it.

"Very good, go on."

Ross said something with interest, and the scholar said slowly.

"After investigating local customs and legends from decades ago, we found that this area is only 800 hectares in total, while the Duke Webb's territory next to it has 8,000 hectares, which only accounts for one-tenth of the area. But it was called the cursed land thirty years ago!"

"According to legend, thirty years ago, there would be an extremely cold winter every five years, and this so-called [extremely cold winter] happened to refer to December 12, but every ten years There will be a full moon night at this time, and it is the full moon night that really causes the beasts to mutate."

After the scholar finished speaking, he waited quietly.

Ross thought for a while, and then said, "You mean, this mutation had symptoms as early as 30 years ago, but why has it changed from once in more than a decade to every year? And it's still a few at a time. Yue, why didn't the local lord ignore it?"

"Lord Ross, we asked the most authoritative person in the area, and he said that Lord Webb is not unwilling to care, but these alien beasts are very powerful, even if the human army goes, they can't investigate why, and they will Offend a mysterious existence..."

"Mysterious existence? What do you mean?"

As a staunch materialist, Ross does not believe in anything that has no substance.

So he asked in a suspicious tone.

"This... We haven't figured it out yet, but I speculated that it is very likely that someone who is not on this plane can control some objects to move, or inject other forces into the beast's body..."

Ross thought calmly, if it wasn't for the existence of this plane, how would they feel it?

Having said that, it seems that the leader of the clergy and the magic rank is not the existence of this plane, right?

It is said that there are only elves, orcs, giant dwarves and humans on the ancient continent.

However, today's orcs are no longer a race that is evenly matched with humans, and have been surpassed by humans for many years.

And for some unknown reason, elves haven't appeared for hundreds of years. It is said that there are only a handful of elves on the mainland now...

As for other races, as for them, the number is also very rare, even if they are established under the elves, they can still reflect a large number in comparison.

Anyway, Ross has never seen dwarves and giants before, these two hidden races, and only read the relevant words roughly when he was flipping through ancient books.

"If it's not this plane...then the first thing we have to do is to find a way to observe "it"."

Ross felt that before this conjecture was realized, he still had to pay attention to several other directions.

For example, these mutated beasts may be the trump card of the Truman family, and now this trump card has an autonomous mind in advance, and they can no longer control it.

There is also a chance that Truman discovered the secret of the cursed land early, and in order not to be discovered, he never went to the cursed land blatantly, but found this place secretly, and kept being born as Truman Powerful beast.

These are Ross's conjectures. Since the conclusions have been obtained so far, Truman must have something to do with it.

Even if it is not to investigate alien beasts, even if it is to protect a large black land in the cursed land, so that the cursed land can become a strategic location of Ross, a free and peaceful land with the most abundant resources.

Ross decided that he had to go here.
