Knight Lord: Start with Daily Intelligence

In the past few days, Su Li finally experienced the chic and joyous life of being a lord.

During this time, besides holding a grand funeral, he didn't do anything else, only flipping through intelligence reports and guiding the development of the territory every day.

His working time per day was only about one minute, and the remaining 26 hours could be used for rest.

That's right, the empire's calendar is a bit different from Earth's. In addition to 26 hours per day, the imperial year is not 365 days but 400 days, divided into 12 months, each month having 32 or 33 days. There are also six "intermediate days" as important anniversaries or festivals, not counted in any month.

Each cycle is eight days, namely "Week Start Day", "Work Day", "Tax Day", "Market Day", "Baking Day", "Tax Filing Day", "King's Day" and "Rest Day".

This highlights that only taxation and military affairs are unavoidable. Each rest day is the day when the inhabitants go to the monastery to receive training as militiamen.

After the establishment of the Black Forest Territory's Blazing Sun Goddess Monastery, Captain Rong En accepted Su Li's invitation and stayed in the Black Forest Territory to serve as the monastery's priest and religious advisor.

Every cycle, he would explain tactics, instruct martial arts, and train formations to the inhabitants and knights in the monastery.

Although his cultivation was gone, his past experience and knowledge as a God-Chosen Knight were still retained. With him lecturing on martial arts and training soldiers, even Commander Erlstain benefited greatly, and the overall combat effectiveness of the Black Forest Territory's army improved by leaps and bounds.

Su Li felt that this army was almost becoming an army chosen by the gods.

In addition to the divine grace of the Blazing Sun Goddess Monastery, the Dawn Goddess Monastery also received gratifying divine grace.

After planting the consecrated Wisteria tree, the Dawn Goddess's priest, Fandal, felt the god's praise and gift, and created three bottles of Earth Blood Potion in the monastery.

In the previous battle with the goblins, only Beast Slayer Jerold consumed one Earth Blood Potion. The potions on Knight Erlstain and Hild were not consumed.

This means that the territory now has a reserve of five Earth Blood Potions, and the number can continue to increase.

Because in less than a cycle, the Summer Solstice is coming.

The Summer Solstice in this world is different from the Summer Solstice on Earth. It is the day when the gods arrive.

This festival is very important to both the Rhea Church and the塔尔 Church. It means that the Dawn Goddess has handed over the rings of the year to Tar, the God of Summer and Wilderness.

The priests of the two churches often hold celebrations together, and the gods will also bestow divine grace.

At this important node, regardless of territory, north or south, all priests will bathe in divine grace, and if their strength reaches the premise, they can create a Earth Blood Potion, which is considered a benefit for the entire church.

The Black Forest Territory is also preparing for this celebration, mainly because the lord, Su Li, is very interested in this celebration.

The Summer Solstice is a day to celebrate fertility and vitality. According to the custom of the church, people will hold various celebrations to thank the gifts of nature and pray for harvest and prosperity.

Young couples will decorate themselves with flowers, dance and drink freely, and sing hymns to Tar and Rhea to celebrate fertility and the cycle of nature.

Children born on the Summer Solstice are considered blessed. They are believed to grow into intelligent, energetic adults and are destined to achieve great things.

In addition, the church's priests can also use the special energy of the Summer Solstice to make a talisman to protect themselves and their families.

People will choose some natural materials, such as stones, feathers, herbs, flowers, etc., weave or tie these materials together to form a small talisman, and concentrate their minds in the sun or by the fire to inject their blessings and protection intentions into it.

However, what is most popular with Su Li is the water baptism activity held on this day.

On this day of the Summer Solstice, water has the meaning of purification and healing.

Lightly dressed young ladies will sprinkle water on themselves at streams, lakes and other water sources, or scoop up water with their hands and gently pat it on their faces and bodies to feel the coolness and purification of the water.

Then sit down, close your eyes, take a deep breath, feel the breath of nature, and express your gratitude to nature.

Su Li naturally wants to express his gratitude to Tar. So many lightly dressed young ladies, wetting their whole bodies with water, and then sitting there with their eyes closed for the men to admire, isn't it necessary to be grateful?

Of course, women also like this festival. In this festival, knights will also take off their armor, show off their fit bodies, and receive the baptism of the purifying water in the festival.

The key is that the times are staggered. Ladies usually bathe in the morning and evening, while men bathe at noon when the sun is at its strongest.

Su Li couldn't help but sigh, Tar is indeed the God of the Wilderness, playing wildly.

He even suspected that Tar deliberately arranged this event just to see the beauties among his believers.

After all, there is no shortage of those remote and barbaric places that still retain some traditional sacrificial methods, sacrificing the territory's pure and beautiful girls as sacrifices to serve the gods.

Speaking of beautiful girls, I have to mention a recent visitor to the castle, Ms. Ingrid, the forest witch in the Mirror Marsh, who also visited the consecrated Wisteria tree in the castle after feeling the powerful Jilun Wind.

She also gave Su Li a bag of [Crying Beauty Seeds]. This flower called [Crying Beauty] is also called [Golden Light Flower] or [Fool's Fantasy], because many people believe that this flower can find gold, but the luck required is as much as chasing the end of the rainbow.

Ms. Ingrid also gave this to Su Li after seeing the clover under the consecrated Wisteria tree, hoping that he would have good luck.

But potion masters are usually more realistic and mainly use it as an important recipe for detoxification potions.

With all kinds of seeds, Su Li has been reclaiming spiritual medicine fields under the consecrated Wisteria tree during this time.

He was also very bored. He couldn't always practice knightly skills with Phyllis all day long.

After eating moose finch meat and practicing every day, his current cultivation level has reached the high-level apprentice knight, and he is about to become a formal knight.

Practicing every day, he couldn't help but want to do something to add some fun to his life.

Under his personal reclamation, 10 acres of medicine fields have been reclaimed under the consecrated Wisteria tree in the past few days.

With the vigorous vitality of the consecrated Wisteria tree, the calming flowers are developing extremely well. Except for the dead seeds, the rest have sprouted smoothly. This germination rate cannot be achieved by farming skills, it is completely the infusion of spiritual power.

Su Li counted when he was bored, and there were 327 seedlings that sprouted successfully.

This is enough to make more than two hundred Earth Blood Potions.

Now his castle's warehouse stores 86 bottles of Vitality Potions, 23 bottles of Detoxification Potions, and 12 bottles of Healing Potions.

When the swift grass and Die Da grass here are ripe, the territory can produce 9-12 potions every day.

Su Li actually wanted the forest witch Ingrid to move into the castle. This witch is very sexy. Every time she comes to the castle, she wears a dark green or fiery red hood, and her plump and slender beautiful legs are wrapped in seductive black silk. A pair of full, large and white breasts are ready to burst out under the package of the slim-fitting robe.

The lords of various places like to find witches as courtiers, because this is a pure comrade-in-arms relationship. Witches are generally more reclusive and avoid the world, so even if the artillery fire is continuous, it will not have any impact on the territory.

But Ingrid didn't know whether she guessed Su Li's purpose or because of her reclusive personality, she politely declined Su Li's request and chose to continue to stay in the forest tree house.

Of course, Su Li's enthusiasm was not without results.

In addition to the effect of the consecrated Wisteria tree, Ingrid still agreed to Su Li to come to the castle for a period of time every two or three days.

It is mainly to make talismans under the tree. She can make simple talismans similar to cold-resistant runes and reconnaissance guards in the tree house.

What she makes under the spirit tree is a powerful talisman that is usually difficult to complete, called [Talisman of Destiny], which allows the wearer to dream of future omens before the war, know the enemy's fatal blow to him, so that the knight can completely block a fatal blow.

It is hard to say how effective this thing is on the battlefield, but for the lord, it is simply a magic weapon to guard against court assassinations.

Su Li decisively spent a lot of money to buy this talisman and equipped it on himself.

Ms. Ingrid only sold this talisman to him for 200 gold crowns. If the taxes are removed, Su Li actually only spent 80 gold crowns.

It is no wonder that every lord welcomes a prophet tree house or witch hut in his territory.

Just doing entrepot trade, he can make a fortune.

So this is not an ominous witch, but his cash cow.

In order to win the favor of this witch, Su Li specially made a swing for her on the wisteria tree so that she could sit closer to the tree to make runes.

In order to tie up this wizard for the territory, the lord did not hesitate to sacrifice his beauty and use a man's charm on her.

Su Li was thinking under the tree about how to improve the layout of this square and the planning of the medicine field when Knight Erlstain's excited voice came.

"Lord, the army we sent into the Blood Pine Forest has triumphantly returned."

The Blood Pine Forest is relatively far from the territory, especially to enter the dense and dangerous shade of the trees, a large number of armed attendants are needed to accompany the army.

So the knights who cleared the forest returned after so long.

Su Li heard Knight Erlstain's voice and immediately asked with concern: "What is the result of this trip into the forest for clearing?"

Soon Knight Erlstain brought Jerold to the consecrated Wisteria tree. Champion Knight Jerold is a believer of Uric, the God of Winter. He does not participate in the Blazing Sun Goddess Church's gatherings on rest days, so he is the commander of this entry into the forest.

He immediately reported to Su Li: "Lord, our exploration and clearing went very smoothly. We successfully defeated a forest bandit group and two green-skinned war gangs, captured 65 prisoners, and retrieved the Glory Relic - the Eye of the Drowned."

"In addition, according to your instructions, we found the valley shoal of the Brienney River in the northwest of the forest, and successfully collected a magic tide clam in that water area."
