Rise of the Dark Witch

Nange Town.

The Viscount's mansion is still under construction.

Relatives and friends that Roja had not seen for many years gathered together.

There is Roya's father Derry, stepmother Siren, younger siblings Rick and Lily, and his father's many illegitimate children.

There is also Lei Lun, who was once the captain of Roya and was both his teacher and friend.

Luke fought against the top level Warcraft Demon Wolf King with Roya, and accompanied Luke to the Akara Mountains with the Sejie Paladin.

Those present were all Roya's family and friends.

Although many people who admired his name as a Paladin wanted to meet him, Roja did not intend to waste time on trivial matters.

"Haha, son, I knew you were special!" Deli happily patted Roja on the shoulder, and the white hair on his head was much reduced.

He didn't know how to express his inner pride for Roja, his outstanding son.

When Roya became the Grand Knight, he made great achievements in killing the Demon Wolf King, and his family gained a fiefdom and became a baron. He was so happy that he forgot about everything, thinking that he would die without regrets in this life.

Unexpectedly, just a few years ago, someone suddenly gave him the title of viscount with a letter from the king.

At that moment, he was confused.

He had only been a baron for less than ten years and had not made any great achievements. Why was he suddenly promoted to viscount?

You must know that the difficulty of promotion to knighthood, baronetship and viscounty title is rising steadily!

Knighthood is generally not difficult for great knights to obtain.

To achieve the title of Baron, even a Grand Knight, one has to go through a life-and-death battle, and only with ten years of continuous contribution can it be possible.

The title of Viscount, I don't know how many baron families have produced great knights one after another from generation to generation, and it took hundreds of years to get the title of Viscount by chance.

And he had only been a baron for ten years, and he hadn't even built the baron castle. Suddenly, someone told him that he had become a viscount?

At that moment, Deli felt that the other party must have found the wrong person.

Maybe another person with the same name as him?

But no!

After the excitement, Deli knew that the reason why he became a Viscount must be the credit of his son Roya who went out on an adventure!

"Son, son, I didn't expect you to become the legendary Paladin! Haha, hahaha..." Deli felt that he had laughed too much these days, but he couldn't stop smiling at all.

"Father, you drank too much." Roya took the wine glass from Deli's hand. "Drinking too much wine is not good for your health. Aunt Sirin, take father down to wash up and rest."

"I'm fine, I can still drink..." Deli grabbed the wine glass from Roja's hand and was about to continue drinking, but he opened his mouth and started vomiting crazily.

Before Delhi vomited, Roya had already brought a wooden plate and handed it to him.

After asking Aunt Sirin to take his father down who drank too much, Roja continued to reminisce with the others.

"Paladin Roya..." Captain Lei Lun looked at Roya and hesitated to speak.

"Captain Lei Lun, should I call you Baron Lei Lun now?" Roja joked.

"What's wrong with being a baron? I will always be your Captain Lei Lun." The nervous Captain Lei Lun suddenly relaxed and hugged Roja.

"I didn't expect you to be a Paladin." Luke came over and toasted with Roja, his expression very complicated.

"It's just a fluke." Roja replied.

The drinking party lasted until late at night.

Early the next morning.

In the meeting hall of the Nange family.

The Nangle family gathered together.

Roya sat at the head of the long table, and others, including his father Delhi, sat on both sides.

No one else will have any problem with this kind of seating.

Because they know that although Delhi is the viscount and Rick is the heir to the Nange family, Roja is the real controller and the real contributor to their current status.

Without Roya, many of them here might not even have a knighthood in their lifetime, let alone become a baron.

No one else has an opinion.

However, Roja himself was still a little resistant to the idea of ​​him sitting at the head of the table while his father, Deri, the nominal head of the family, sat aside.

The reason why he didn't change his seat was because it would be better to say what he wanted to say next.

He didn't want to waste too much time on a small issue like seating.

Roja's eyes swept over the faces present.

There were many people present who were familiar to him, and many who were unfamiliar to him.

After all, he has been away from home for seventeen years, and so many things can happen in seventeen years.

The babies that were waiting to be fed when he left have now become men who can stand on their own.

From a baron family to a viscount family, many titles will be conferred and many people will be added to help manage the territory.

After scanning everyone present, Roja said, "Everyone, becoming a Viscount is just the beginning. It is a very happy thing to get the title and territory that you have always dreamed of, but I believe that everyone does not want to stop here."

"Everyone wants to live the life of those wealthy viscounts, barons, and knights, and they all want to develop our barren territory into a prosperous place."

As a newly promoted viscount, unless he conquered the enemy's territory during the war, the territories he was awarded were usually in some remote, barren and uninhabited places.

Although they are all desolate territories, there is a huge difference between having territory and not having territory!

In this feudal era, the duke and the king can be said to have an equal relationship. In other words, the king's title is the duke, and the duke's territory is also called a principality.

A count is equivalent to a feudal official who has his own army, can make his own laws in his own territory, has great power, and can be hereditary.

Regardless of whether he is a king, a duke or an earl, they are all aloof and out of reach to the people in the kingdom.

Those who truly manage the territory and the people are the viscount, baron and knight, with the viscount being the most important.

To the people, a viscount is more terrifying and more worthy of awe than an earl, duke, or king.

Because those kings, dukes, and earls are all high in the sky and far away from the emperor, but the viscount actually sits on their heads and has the real power of life and death over them.

Generally speaking, a viscount can control the territory of a city. You must know that a province is normally divided into more than a dozen cities. It is not an exaggeration to say that the viscount manages one-tenth of the territory of a province.

As the actual manager of the territory and its people, the viscount has a vital responsibility for the development of the territory.

But how to develop it is a difficult problem.

The territory of the Nange family is so remote and desolate. If the responsibility of developing the territory is given to father Delhi and the others, the territory may not change much even if it takes another hundred years.

So Roja had no choice but to take action.

“If we want to develop our territory, we must first find our development direction.”

"If you find the right route, your development will make rapid progress."

Roja waved his hand, and a huge map spread out on the wall behind him, covering the entire wall.

This map is the map of their Nange family's viscounty.

This map is not an ordinary map, it was drawn by Roja who transformed into an eagle and flew around their territory for several hours.

The map is so detailed that all the mountains and rivers in the territory are drawn, and the number of people in each village is marked.

Looking at this extremely accurate map, everyone present widened their eyes.

"Our Nange family is originally a medicinal family."

"A few years ago, I joined the Pharmacy Union at the invitation of the Pharmacy Union and became a representative of the Pharmacy Union in Silian Province."

"So if you want to develop your territory, it's best to focus on pharmaceuticals and medicinal materials."

Looking at the people whose eyes were gradually brightening, Roja asked: "There are many potions and potions in the Pharmacy Guild. Is there anyone in our territory who can refine them?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions immediately dimmed.

There are only a handful of pharmacists in the entire Silian Province. Where are the people in their territory who can make potions and potions?

All they can do is grow low-level medicinal materials and brew some simple decoctions that can cure diseases, and then they are gone.

"Son, you have studied with the witch doctor Barney. You should be able to make potions, right?" Deli said.

"Yes, we don't understand. Master Roja, do you understand?"

"As long as Lord Roja is here, refining potions is not a problem at all."

"From now on, under the leadership of Lord Roja, we will mainly focus on refining and selling various potions and potions."

Looking at the chattering crowd, Roja shook his head slightly.

There are many things he needs to do. How much can he help the family by refining potions?

Training pharmacists?

It takes a lot of time and energy to train a pharmacist.

Even if a large number of pharmacists are really trained, what about the materials for refining the medicine?

As far as their Nange family's territory is concerned, it's okay to plant ordinary medicinal materials, but how can they grow precious medicinal materials that can be used to refine potions and potions?

You must know that even for the lowest-level primary potion, the raw materials cost a few gold coins, which is enough for a family of three to live comfortably for a year without worrying about food and clothing.

The raw materials are so expensive, and the price of a finished primary potion ranges from tens of gold coins to hundreds of gold coins per bottle, which is simply beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Even if Roja improved the prescriptions and refining methods and reduced the price of many elementary potions to one-tenth of the original price, for many ordinary people, one bottle of elementary potions would require them to save several years.

I think that during the years he was at the Root of the Earth, he stirred up the storm in pharmacy and magic medicine, shaking the entire Six Kingdoms.

But what shocked them was only the powerful nobles. For ordinary people, potions and magic potions were all luxuries they could not afford and had nothing to do with them.

The potions and magic potions that he had researched for ten years at the Root of the Earth were said to be enough to affect the layout of the Six Kingdoms. After shopping around his hometown, he found that they were a joke.

If we want to change the world, we need cheap and good medicines that ordinary people can afford and use.

What is needed is one gold coin for a dose of limb-regenerating ointment, one silver coin for a large bottle of antipyretic medicine, and one copper coin for a large bottle of vitamins...

Roja has a lot of past life knowledge in his mind. Antipyretics, vitamins, penicillin... and other medicines can reappear in this world in minutes if he wants to.

But in order not to arouse suspicion, he would not do that.

He will use the medicinal materials that exist in this world to refine various medicines that have the same efficacy as in his previous life and the same price!

"We want to plant medicinal materials on a large scale. I have written down the methods of growing medicinal materials and what medicinal materials are suitable for planting in our territory..."

"I have improved the refining of steel and can obtain a large number of cheap and useful steel forged agricultural tools..."

"If you want to develop the territory and plant medicinal materials on a large scale, the excavation of reservoirs, rivers, and road construction are necessary..."

"Reading and literacy is a must. I don't want all the knights in our territory to be illiterate. I have compiled teaching materials for illiteracy, and I have chosen the location for the school's construction..."

"If you want to protect your territory, strong force is indispensable. I have improved the knight's sword technique to make it easier to learn and better enhance the strength..."

"The potions I have researched need to be refined by someone, so I have to choose some people who are talented in potions to study with me..."

"The medicines refined from the cultivated medicinal materials require sales channels, the construction of all stores, and the formation of the fleet..."

The first territory development meeting of the Nange family lasted four hours a day for half a month.

In the past half month, all the details of what needs to be done to develop the territory have been finalized.

As soon as the meeting ended, the entire territory immediately became busy.

Roja transforms into a bird and patrols the territory every day. Every day he has to meet with various people, read a pile of documents, and solve countless problems encountered in the development of the territory.

With Roja's powerful strength and amazing calculation power, he developed the territory just like playing a farming game. The Nange family's territory was growing with each passing day.

"Ouch——"

A monster that only harmed people died wailing in Roja's hands.

"collapse--"

With the sound of landslides and ground cracks, the reservoir that would have taken ordinary people several years to dig was dug out by Luo Ya in less than an hour.

"Kaka——"

A huge hamster was digging rapidly on the ground, and a river that was twenty meters wide and ten kilometers long was formed in a few days.

"Shuashua——"

With a wave of his hand, Luo Ya made tracts of woods disappear, and dozens of square kilometers of dense forest turned into fertile farmland within a few days.

"Dong dong dong——"

Huge boulders that took more than a dozen people to move flew from the rocky mountain to a place several kilometers away, and were stacked neatly on top of each other.

"Rumble--"

The swamp was unsuitable for human habitation and farming. As Roja stepped on it, thousands of oscillating forces were injected into the depths of the ground. The ground immediately shook violently and the swamp rolled, changed and disappeared.

With Roja's great power as a limit-breaking apprentice, he easily solved all the things that hindered the development of the territory.

In just one month, he dug dozens of kilometers of rivers, added more than ten reservoirs to the territory, and added hundreds of kilometers of gravel roads...

These achievements that took years and decades to achieve, Roja accomplished in one month!

Regarding the layout of rivers, road construction, the location of reservoirs, etc., Luo Ya did not do it without thinking. They were all the results of his precise calculations, taking into account the topography and village layout.

After Roya showed his power that could be called a god, everyone in the territory worshiped him as a god.

Even his father, siblings, every time they see him, their knees can't help but want to bend, wanting to worship him, the god on earth.

Feeling the awe-filled eyes of his relatives and friends, Roja deeply felt the difference between him and others.

The difference between gods and mortals!

He was still just a wizard apprentice, and the gap between him and ordinary people was so huge.

When he becomes a first-level wizard, a second-level wizard... or even a ninth-level wizard, what will mortals look like in his eyes?

"Ever since I took part in the wizard trial, I have been hanging out in the wizarding world and dealing with official wizards, so I haven't noticed it..."

"Aware of the fact that I am no longer the same species as ordinary people!"

It's not just a difference in strength.

Can it really be called a species when reproductive isolation even exists?

"Paladin Roya, we are all here." Rick said tremblingly.

Rick, the son of Roya's half-brother Rick.

At this time, six boys and girls in their early teens, including Rick, were kneeling in front of Roja, their bodies trembling violently not knowing whether it was fear or joy.

These six boys and girls are students accepted by Luo Ya.

Roja could tell how talented they were with just one glance.

"With your talents, it would be difficult for you to become a great knight without outside help."

"Although I have the magic potion to directly help you become a great knight or even a paladin, I still hope that you can become stronger through your own efforts."

"so……"

Roja stretched out his right hand to the six kneeling people, and the warm light of life emitted from his hand.

"Let me help you improve your knight talents first."

The glow of life enveloped the six people including Rick.

Under the influence of the radiance of life, the physiques of Rick and others have undergone earth-shaking changes from the inside to the outside.

This method of being able to easily improve other people's knight talents may not even be possible for formal wizards.

This is the only way for Roja, who has cultivated the holy knight skill "Nine Trees Sacred Garden" to the highest level and has 50,000 units of vitality, coupled with 45,000 units of mental power and an in-depth understanding of the human body structure. Something that only Roja can do.

Under the influence of the radiance of life, the bodies of Rick and others have undergone radical changes. From ordinary talents that are difficult to become great knights by relying on their own cultivation, they have become capable of cultivating knight swordsmanship to the ninth level within thirty years. Knight genius.

"Go down and get used to your body, and come back in three days to receive instruction." Roja waved Rick and others to leave.

at night.

After having a meal with his family, Roya, who had been busy all day, sat on the roof of the castle overlooking his territory.

Looking at the prosperous territory under his management, Luo Ya's face was neither happy nor sad, "The farming game I played in my previous life was more fulfilling."

After leaving the wizarding world and returning to normal life, Roja always felt that he was out of tune with this world.

"Cherish the life you have now."

"I am reproductively isolated from other people and have no descendants. After my father and siblings who are related to me by blood pass away, apart from continuing to explore the path of wizards, is there anything else in the world that I should miss?"

"there is none left."

Roja looked up and stared at the stars in the sky.

One day he will become a member of the stars in the sky. No matter how the world changes, he will remain the same forever.
