Lord of War

101. Pioneering Knights

Sean, really seriously thought about becoming a lord.

He thought about it for half a month, thinking about the possibility of it every day, and even made many plans for it, and even madly digging into the memory storage area of ​​his brain, all about the "Lord" gaming information. But unfortunately, in the game, he was a member of the strategy team, not the management team, so the relevant information he came into contact with was basically related to various strategies, and he would come into contact with some background settings in the game. Sure, most of them are going for the game strategy plot.

Conversely, for any plot, character, or location that has nothing to do with dungeons, quests, treasures, job transfers, etc., Sean is basically in a state of smearing his eyes.

In the game at that time, he also said that this is a specialization in the art industry, and he has always been very proud of it. But now...

Sean really hates why he is not an all-around wizard.

And the only clue he could think of about how to become a lord was to become a pioneer knight.

This is a well-known lord task in the original "Miracle". Of course, compared to those ways of obtaining territory through hidden tasks, the process of this task is actually very troublesome and difficult.

First of all, pioneering knights are just an identity, not a profession. What it represents is that people with this identity can use the name of the feudal lord to send troops to fight and expand the territory for the feudal lord. Although these territories belong to the titled lords in name, but in fact the jurisdiction over this territory rests with the pioneering knights, and how much territory can be conquered depends on the strength of the pioneering knights themselves.

But even so, he still cannot become a lord.

The so-called lord means that he has officially entered the aristocratic system of a country. The pioneer knights are not nobles, even if they lay down more territories, they cannot become lords. Although they have jurisdiction within the territory, they are not recognized by the country to which the lord belongs, so naturally they will not be recognized by the country. In the game, it was dubbed "the mercenary group with a larger base" by the players. Therefore, how to get a noble title has become the second and most important step in this task.

The quickest way is to cede a part of the conquered territory to the lord, so as to directly obtain a noble title of a knight, but this approach is the most undesirable, because the ceded territory is not determined by the player, but by the player. The master decides. The second method, which is more troublesome, is to exchange for the noble title of the knight by brushing favorability or military merit.

After obtaining the title of aristocrat, although he cannot be regarded as an official lord, his identity has at least been recognized. In a country with a well-established system, a recognized identity is naturally very important, which means that the laws of the territory can be modified, and even the qualification of the kingdom's trade routes, the right to recognize all resources in the territory, etc. , and even avoid many unnecessary wars.

After possessing the status of "Pioneering Knight" and the title of "Sir", any act of pioneering territory will be regarded as legalization, and then as long as a series of appropriate operations are performed, the "Sir" becomes a "Baron". Become an official field noble with a fief, and then continue to climb up the noble system. It's just that this noble title is life-long rather than hereditary, which means that this territory that was conquered by myself cannot be inherited by future generations. When I die, this territory will become the property of the lord. .

And it is not impossible to break this limitation.

Just another war.

After Sean thought about these things, the rest was to choose a suitable title holder. In fact, you can find the title master in any country on the Miracle Continent. Even Duroen can canonize Sean as a pioneering knight, and even give him a knight title immediately, enjoying the same reputation as Fregen. And status - as long as Sean wants to.

But is Sean willing?

Not to mention the degree of his disgust for Duroen right now, the internal stability of the Kingdom of Portoroa makes it impossible for any wars and conflicts to break out. The territorial will eventually be spit out through the negotiating table, which is not what Sean wants. So after careful thinking, Sean's eyes finally locked on the Principality of Ryan, and even the title has been confirmed.

The Silver Sword Princess, the Valkyrie of Thunder, the Flower of the Principality of Lane, the Marquis of Tonis, the jewel in the palm of the commander-in-chief of St. Peter G. Evans, Asuna G. Evans.

This woman is a woman with real talent and learning. She did not rely on the power of the family, but left the family at the age of sixteen and went to serve as a pioneering knight under another lord. After that, she spent four years. Time, climbed from a pioneering knight to the title of baroness. The territory that Asuna, who was in her twenties at the time, was already equivalent to an earldom, but at that time she exchanged the territory with a viscount in the frontier region, and then used that viscount's property. The territory is developed as a base, and the Angroda Mountains are declared to be incorporated into the territory of the Principality of Lane.

This mountain range is shared by the Principality of Lane and the Kingdom of Dabion. It has been designated as a black crystal mine that can be mined for a hundred years. This is one of the necessary materials for making high-quality equipment, and even some magical weapons are also needed. So the value of this mountain range can be imagined. At that time, two-thirds of the mountain range was located in the Principality of Lane, and the other third was owned by the Kingdom of Dabian. Therefore, it is conceivable that Asuna's claim is naturally impossible to be recognized.

And Asuna is also very straightforward. After she spent a year rectifying the territory, she directly sent troops to the kingdom of Darbian. In the first three months of the war, Asuna's terrifying military talent finally shocked both the Dabion Kingdom and the Principality of Lane, because at this time, Asuna fought entirely with her own private soldiers, but in just three In the same month, Asuna broke through the territory of one earl, three viscounts, and fourteen barons of the Kingdom of Darbian, and its territory was equivalent to one-tenth of the Principality of Lane.

After seeing Asuna's talent, Commander Roald immediately dispatched his own private army to reinforce his daughter, and then began to use his power to formally increase Asuna's troops, which completely evolved into war between the two countries. And Asuna was appointed as the commander of the war zone, and then during the three-year war, Asuna killed and captured five commanders of the Dabion Kingdom, two of whom were even well-known veteran commanders. , not to mention other nobles who were defeated by her.

At this point, the Kingdom of Darbian finally admitted defeat.

And Asuna did something unexpected at this time. Except for the surrounding area of ​​the Angloda Mountains, she spit out all other territories to Dabian. You must know that Asuna was at that time. The occupied territory is already equivalent to a Principality of Lane. Asuna's actions naturally caused dissatisfaction among countless people in the duchy, but Asuna didn't care, and directly invested all the supplies she had collected from Dabion into the construction of a fortress.

A year later, the giant war fortress "Tonis" in the Angroda Mountains was built. This fortress guards the main road leading to the Principality of Lane from Dabion, and forms an horn with the Fortress of Saint Drones, where Commander Roald is stationed. It is called "the left portal of the Duchy of Lane." The Groda Mountains was unceremoniously incorporated into her territory by Asuna, which was exactly the size of a marquis.

As a result, Asuna, who was twenty-five years old, became the youngest Marquis of the Principality of Lane, Marquis of Tonis. But so far, she has given up the inheritance rights of the Rowens family, but started life as a side branch, and broke away from the jurisdiction of the original lord, becoming a hereditary marquis recognized by the Lion Kingdom.

Now that Asuna is only twenty-six, she is already one of the most influential figures in the Principality of Ryan.

Moreover, she is not only extremely capable of military affairs, she is also a sixth-order master, and her swordsmanship is also very consummate. At least she has three high-level swordsmanship inheritance tasks on her body. Sean is also a swordsman now, and he is also considering developing in this direction in the future, so considering various factors, becoming a pioneer knight under Asuna is the most suitable.

Of course, the main reason is that the Principality of Lane is in the midst of war all the year round, and there is no shortage of directions to develop there. Going out from the left portal Tonis is the Kingdom of Dabian. Although there is no war between the Kingdom of Dabian and the Principality of Lane, Sean knows that war will break out between the two countries soon. This is a once-in-a-lifetime military achievement and peace The opportunity to expand territory.

And the right portal, the Saint Derons Fortress, is the land of black soil. As long as the revival fire can be found, the land can be restored and become a vast and fertile land. And in that land, one of the six holy cities in the world is hidden.

Earthly ideal land. Utopia.

There, it used to be the territory of the guild that Sean signed in the game.

If there is any regret for Sean, it is that the territory was later breached, and the entire fortress was destroyed. This was the pain in the hearts of all the players in the guild at that time. So since he decided to become a lord, Sean wanted to retake that territory again, and he also swore in his heart that this time he must guard this territory well, and let the flag in his heart fly on Utopia forever this time.

Faced with Sean's determination to become a lord, Alfred and Cecilia couldn't continue to persuade them, so they could only start their own preparations. In fact, Alfred himself does not have much opinion, because he can finally be with his daughter. Although the next journey may be very hard and tiring, Alfred is actually full of hope, at least compared to The former kind of despair is better.

It's just that he is not sure whether Xina can endure hardships, after all, her living conditions have indeed improved a lot in recent years.

When the three of them came down from the second floor, they saw a lot of people on the first floor of the Warm Wind House Hotel. There are nearly thirty of these people, and each of them is not a stranger. Although Sean can't name these people, at least they have fought together - all the survivors of the civil war in Tindersburg are here now. , and although Sean and these people are not familiar, he is also very curious about the reasons for these people's arrival. ......(To be continued)【】If you like my text update, you are welcome to click the top or reply fifteen words.
