"Surrender, surrender, we surrender!!"

Viscount Hubbard, who was having a meeting in the castle, jumped out and shouted loudly.

However, he never expected that a servant next to him jumped out, knocked the viscount unconscious with one palm, and said loudly: "Lord, this place is too dangerous, let's run away!!"

There was a moment of panic.

In the sky, the dragons pretended not to hear, and someone teleported directly to the vicinity of the castle. Balls of air exuding thick and poisonous mist were thrown down, poisoning everyone in the castle.

In addition, some people in the viscounty shouted loudly: "Defend the viscounty and resist invasion!!"

A large group of people came out to fight.

The dragon generals in the sky smiled: "That's right... If there is no resistance and no one jumps out, how can we fight this battle?"

If we don't fight, we will lose the name of justice, and we will not be able to occupy this viscounty territory afterwards, which is not good. Of course, other excuses can still be found, but it is always more convenient and less troublesome than the viscounty's desperate resistance.

Now, the guards who knocked out the viscount and the knights who led the team to kill them were all confused by the dragon man's spell and would not attract anyone's attention afterwards.

"Kill, but try not to hurt anyone!!"

The army rushed to kill in a mighty manner.

The strength gap between the two sides in this battle is so great that it's like a giant dragon crushing an ant. But precisely because the strength gap is so large, casualties can be more effectively controlled.

Only one of the Viscount's soldiers, who was stunned and was accidentally trampled to death by his own horse, was killed in the battle. The others were seriously injured or slightly injured, but none of them died.

Afterwards, the Dragon Army of the Winter Kingdom occupied the entire viscounty territory, and quickly sent the Dragon People with soldiers acting as ordinary people from the Winter Kingdom to search everywhere.

It didn't take long for all kinds of evidence to be found.

"Bold, there is indeed someone in your viscounty who is involved with the necromancer. What, evidence? In that cemetery, many bones showed signs of being activated, and some of them were stolen. This does not prove that there are necromancers nearby. Any traces of the past?”

In many places, whether it is this viscounty or other noble territories, it is not difficult to encounter this kind of thing. We often see traces of the activities of necromancers, but it does not mean that there are necromancers in the local area.

For example, if a certain place was robbed by thieves, can it mean that the local people colluded with the thieves, or that someone acted as a thief? It is possible, but the greater possibility is that the thieves are traveling to commit crimes and are people from other places, not locals. Of course, the possibility of locals being thieves cannot be ruled out.

The same goes for the Necromancer.

The dragon soldiers under Zhan Fei used this as an excuse to occupy the viscounty territory, stationed troops there, and patrolled day and night, claiming to be searching for people who colluded with the undead.

And it was announced: "Those who collude with the undead have already exposed their traces, so they are likely to act frantically to make a desperate move, or to retaliate against the local residents. Therefore, in order to protect this place from being If the undead race invades the dragon, we will not be retaliated by the necromancers. We have an obligation to station troops here to help Viscount Hubbert, maintain local security, and protect this territory.

"Moreover, we must continue to search to trace the whereabouts of the necromancer and those who colluded with the lich. We promise to try not to affect the lives of local people, try to ensure local security, and try not to wrongly accuse a good person. We will never let a bad guy go, please believe in our fairness.”

Viscount Hubbert woke up and looked for the dragon generals quite sadly and angrily to ask when the search would be results and when the troops would be withdrawn.

"It won't be too late to withdraw our troops. We must ensure that all the necromancers and people who collude with the lich here are driven away or found out. Moreover, we must prevent them from turning around and retaliate, so it is very likely that the troops will be stationed for a long time... Well, listen to your Excellency. meaning,

Seems like they want us to leave in a hurry?

"Your Excellency, Viscount Harbert, this is an extremely irresponsible expression of the safety of the people in your territory. In addition, up to now, we have not found the people who are colluding with the lich hidden in your territory.

"Such a large-scale search failed to find the hidden ones. This only proves that there must be a powerful force covering for them. Otherwise, they will not be detected. And among the entire viscounty, the most powerful force is only So one or two.”

As soon as these words came out, Viscount Hubbard was shocked, angry and frightened.

The attendant beside him loudly said: "You are slandering me. There is no one in our viscounty who colludes with the lich at all."

The dragon general was also angry: "Huh, we keep saying that there is no one who colludes with the lich here, but the evidence we found shows that there must be traces of the necromancer's activities here. Mr. Attendant, can we doubt that, Are you actually trying to protect the Necromancer and hide the secrets of those who collude with the Lich?"

"I, I didn't." The attendant said loudly.

The viscount also wanted to help speak next to him, but the dragon general waved his hand: "Come here, take this gentleman down and interrogate him in detail. We must get a result!!"

As he spoke, he glared at the Viscount fiercely: "Your Excellency, do you want to hinder our investigation?"

"No, no, this is illegal. This is my viscounty, and I am qualified..."

"Shut up, your suspicion has not been cleared. Do you want to question the wisdom of our great King? Question the intelligence that our Majesty has determined is wrong, and insist that there are no traces of undead activities here? Do you still want to question it? All kinds of information that our troops found? The altar of the undead found in some abandoned residents' homes? Do you want to deny these? Humph, Your Excellency, this general is very suspicious of who is colluding with the lich behind this. Does it have a deeper relationship with you, or is it simply... you? "

"Slander, this is slander!!"

"Come here, take His Excellency the Viscount down to rest. If he does something inappropriate... hmm, he must be guilty of committing a crime. Then arrest him for interrogation and then report him to the pastors of various nearby churches."

The viscount was so frightened that he was taken down and put back in the room, but he could not leave. He was under house arrest.

There were people guarding the door, and flying troops patrolling outside the window. The exit was even locked with steel bars, like a cage.

The viscount wanted to cry but had no tears.

Soon, the viscountess came to persuade him.

"I heard that your brother has long coveted the position of Viscount. However, only the eldest son is qualified to inherit the family property and position. The other second sons can only get a small amount of money at most. How can he be willing to do so?

"However, if you die and you don't have a son yet, then he is very likely to inherit the position of Viscount. There was no chance before, but now, people from the Winter Kingdom are here. If he secretly harms you, he will not be able to do anything about it afterwards. Produce forged evidence to show that you had an affair with the undead before inheriting the title. You are not qualified to inherit the title. Then, you are an illegal viscount. According to the regulations of the mainland, the title will be returned to your dead father. , and let your younger brother inherit it instead of directly taking it back to the Ice and Snow Kingdom..."

The Viscount was shocked and angry: "He dares!!"

The Viscountess said: "I didn't dare to do it before, but now, I dare to do it even if I don't know. As long as he creates the established facts and then surrenders to the Winter Kingdom, and the Viscount becomes the territory of the Winter Kingdom, your brother will definitely be able to How could he not want to take a chance on such a good thing by getting the support of Bitter Winter Country?"

The Viscount was furious, frightened and frightened.

The next day, the viscount met with the dragon general.

The next afternoon, the Viscount announced that his brother was "one of" the people who colluded with the lich. Yes, he was one of them.

He wanted to kill his relatives out of justice and report his brother's scandal.

In addition, in order to express his gratitude to the Winter Kingdom and to prevent the undead lich from taking revenge, he wanted to leave the Ice and Snow Kingdom and join the Winter Kingdom. Because he trusts the power of the Winter Country more and believes that the power of the Winter Country can better protect the security of his territory...and so on.

These words were quickly spread to all parts of the continent, with the support of the strong dragon people, and Zhan Fei also produced some audio and video recordings there.

Moreover, there were priests from other churches who made an on-the-spot appraisal and confirmed that the viscount was not bewitched by evil spells. At the same time, they used "Detect Lies" to ask whether he was being forced and whether he sincerely wanted to join the Winter Kingdom. The viscount all answered yes, And no lies were detected.

In this way, Zhanfei's Bitter Winter Kingdom announced to the outside world that the Viscounty of Hubbert had joined the Bitter Winter Kingdom.

Moreover, in order to commend Viscount Harbert for his profound righteousness, His Majesty King Alufons exchanged territories with Viscount Harbert for the most recently conquered islands.

Although it is said that the viscount gave up his ancestral business, it allowed him to obtain a broader and richer territory. There were also troops from the Winter Kingdom stationed there, which was enough to ensure safety. There were no sea tribes or pirates nearby. At the same time, leaving Hubbard’s old territory will give you a greater chance of avoiding the “Revenge of the Lich.”

From a legal perspective, this is legal and reasonable.

Therefore, the viscount was quickly transferred away, and a large area of ​​territory here belonged to the Bitter Winter Kingdom. The new territory obtained by the Viscount was even richer. The land on the island is not as large as the territory here, but the land that can be cultivated and used is more than the old territory. There is also coastal sea territory, land reclamation, and the relocation of territorial residents, etc., so, He was not too sad. He was depressed but also a little happy and conflicted.

However, in comparison, the Snow Queen is much more angry.

"That bastard!! How dare you betray our royal family!!!"

That's right, a long time ago, the Viscount Harbert belonged to the Ice and Snow Kingdom. It was granted by the royal family to Viscount Harbert a few generations ago and has been passed down to this day.

However, this continent belongs to the "feudal system", that is, the "feudal system", not the "food town system".

The so-called feudal system is not like the feudal era in the ancient Celestial Dynasty. The "feudalism" in the ancient Celestial Dynasty on earth, from the Han Dynasty onwards, is actually the "food town system" and the "prefecture and county system". The real feudalism was before the Qin Dynasty.

The Great Zhou Dynasty divided the territories of the princes, and the king of Zhou had no right to manage or collect taxes. They were equivalent to small countries. In fact, they were later divided into small countries.

The same is true here. Although the Viscount claims to be loyal to the Ice and Snow Kingdom, in essence, the relationship between the "sovereign country" and the "vassal country" is almost the same. If Viscount Hubbard doesn't abandon the royal family and directly takes a large area of ​​territory to the Winter Country, or even sells this territory to the Winter Country, or donates it, it won't be a problem. However, under normal circumstances no one sells the territory or donates it.

Nowadays, no one can find anything wrong with the "replacement" of territory "reasonably and legally".

No matter how much the Snow Queen hates her, there is not much she can do unless she dares to attack the Winter Kingdom. Now we can only think of ways to seek help from various churches and let the Church of Good God administer justice.

On the other side, Marquis Ruifinch seemed "panic".

"Your Majesty the Marquis, this is the map..."

In a large room in the castle, a map is hung on the wall.

The location of the Bitter Winter Kingdom was painted red, and the former Viscounty of Harbert was also painted red. As for the Marquis of Refinch, this "marquis", it is sandwiched between the Winter Kingdom and the Viscounty of Harbert.

"What do you think?" the Marquis asked worriedly.

"We are in danger... Now, the Viscounty of Halbert is said to be ready to be renamed the 'former Halbert' province by the King of Winter, and will be directly managed by Winter City. There is no direct border between the two, just because our Marquis is stuck in the province. Among them." said an old man with white beard and white hair.

Another white-bearded subordinate officer said: "Just now, an envoy from the Bitter Winter Kingdom came and said that they wanted to 'rent' a 'concession' in our marquis territory. They paid us a certain amount of money, but in Everything within the concession must be managed by them, and their laws must be followed. As long as there is no rebellion and harm to the Marquis, we cannot interfere with anything in the concession. "

"How dare they?!" The Marquis was furious.

Another subordinate official said: "Your Majesty the Marquis, just now, a second group of envoys came, saying that there are a large number of people in the Viscounty of Harbert who need to be relocated, and they are worried that there will be lich rebellion there, so We also need to send more elite troops from the Winter Country, so we want to borrow a way from us.

"In addition, the general also seemed to be joking and said that in the future, the two sides may often need to mobilize their troops, and may often borrow roads to facilitate the passage of the army. If there is any trouble for the Marquis, I hope to forgive you... They will pay the toll."

The Marquis was filled with anger: "Borrowing the road? Borrowing the road? Paying the toll? Do they treat me as a fool? Who doesn't understand the thoughts of their Winter Kingdom? They only mean our Marquisdom!!!"

The others remained silent.

The Marquis said coldly: "The army keeps coming and going, treating our place as if it's nothing. This is showing off their power. If we prevent them from borrowing the road, they will definitely use it as an excuse to target our Marquis territory, saying that they borrowed the road before, but now If we don't want to borrow it, is it possible that a lich has lurked in and taken control of us, or exerted some influence? Then we sent troops, even if we didn't dare to attack, it would make the territory uneasy.

"Moreover, they are coming and going, and if they are suddenly attacked by some blind people... Whether it is directed by the Winter Kingdom, or other bastards who don't like our Marquis, this will give the Winter Kingdom an excuse to attack We use force..."

Others' expressions changed, and someone asked: "Then, what should we do?"

It was the Marquis' younger brother who spoke out. However, he was now the leader of the Guards, had a good relationship with the Marquis, and the Marquis had descendants. The Marquis' younger brother had little chance of seizing the right to inherit the title of Marquis.

"What do you think we should do?" asked the Marquis.

The younger brother of the Marquis hesitated: "Well, if we don't borrow the road, they will definitely use it to their advantage. If we borrow too many roads, others will think that our Marquis Territory is being bullied. Otherwise, we can quote a sky-high price and rent a piece of territory to them so that they can Passage?”

"Are you crazy?! If you rent your territory to them, can you get it back?"

"It's just renting a straight road that can accommodate the Winter Kingdom's army. Moreover, it will charge a high price of one million gold, and the time limit shall not exceed ten years..."

"Huh, will they agree?" The Marquis rolled his eyes.

Suddenly, a guard knocked on the door: "Your Excellency, Marquis, we have an emergency to report."

"Come in."

A guard came in and brought a tray with a puppet inside. It looked like a child's toy, but it exuded a black aura.

"What is this... what is this?" the Marquis asked.

"This is a handicraft produced in our territory. Some people question that the black air emitting from it is the breath of the undead. The envoy from the Winter Kingdom just suddenly asked why the things produced in our territory have the breath of the undead emanating from it?"

The Marquis' expression changed greatly.

This is not a problem at all. The products produced can be bought by anyone and used for any purpose. But... this is an excuse.

"They... they suspect that there are other products in our territory that are also contaminated with the aura of the undead? I hope that the Marquis can give a satisfactory answer, so that they will not come to investigate in person."

"That's too much!" Marquis Ruifinch was so angry that he smashed the table with a punch.

But... only three days later, Marquis Rifinch, who was being pushed forward step by step, couldn't stand it any longer, so he simply refused to do anything and announced that he was ready to be loyal to His Majesty the King of Winter Kingdom. (To be continued.)
