The Extraordinary Earl

Under the heavy rain, a team composed entirely of knights was heading towards Kaiyue City.

There is no flag, but the knights are uniformly dressed, and the coat of arms of the "Knights of the Mountains", four peaks, is embroidered on the back of the cloak.

Expressed his identity, the Knights of the Mountains of the Pompeii family.

The leader is the great knight, Old Thor, the leader of the Pompeii family.

At this moment, Old Thor was in a hurry because he was a little worried about the situation of Baron Philip and Naz Wilson.

Old Sol once personally sent someone to tell Baron Philippe to bring his family to Pompeii Castle. Old Sol swore an oath on the names of the ancestors of the Pompeii family to ensure Baron Philippe's safety.

But the usually mediocre Baron Philip refused.

This obviously means that Baron Philip doesn't trust Pompeii very much, which makes Old Sol a little sad, but as a former vassal of the Barton family, he is also a friend of Baron Barton.

Old Saul is still worried about Baron Philip.

Soon after, Old Sol saw a fleeing team on the road ahead and immediately relaxed.

Because Old Thor saw Naz and Wilson riding in front. Natsu, Wilson's breath was sluggish, he was probably injured, but he had no missing arms or legs.

Natsu and Wilson also saw Old Thor, and a slight smile suddenly appeared on their feminine faces.

"How's the situation?" Old Sol turned over and dismounted, and asked directly about the situation without paying any attention to greetings.

"I was very alert. I ran out with the Baron just after the battle." Naz, Wilson said with a smile on his face.

"General Qunshan." At this time, Baron Philip got out of the carriage, feeling a little ashamed. He listened to some bad advice and refused to go to Pompeii.

Unexpectedly, he would eventually have to seek refuge in Pompeii.

Old Sol patted Baron Philip on the shoulder and said nothing more.

"Can you still fight?" Old Thor asked Naz, Wilson said.

"Okay." Natsu, Wilson moved his shoulders and replied.

"Then choose ten knights to protect the baron to Pompeii. You quickly set off to the castle in the Blackwater Mountains, meet up with Rebekah and Kintlen, attack Silver Wing City, and then defend it. I will take people there first Clean up the new party knights in Kaiyue City."

Old Sol said.

Luther had previously told Rebecca Kintlen that if the new party invaded Silver Wing City, Rebekah and Kintlen should run away immediately and go to the former castle of the Autumn Wind Thieves in the Blackwater Mountains to take shelter, and not to fight with the new party. People fight hard.

Old Sol has no information about the front line yet, but it is estimated that Rebekah and Kintlen have retreated to the Blackwater Mountains.

"Okay." Naz Wilson responded and led many knights to the Blackwater Mountains without saying a word. Old Sol patted the Baron on the shoulder and led the knights to Kaiyue City.

Because all the new party's great knights responsible for attacking Pompeii were killed, there are no new party great knights left in the six southern territories.

Old Sol led the knights and quickly pacified six territories. Then he led the Knights of the Mountains into the northernmost Silver Wing Territory, hung up the flag of the Knights of the Mountains, and told the people of the new party.

This is already the territory of the Pompeii family.

In the blink of an eye, the Pompeii family made war fortune and completed their expansion.

At the same time, large numbers of nobles, with their families, servants, and property, swarmed to the south.

And heard the news that the Pompeii family had formed an alliance with the Mountain Eagle, and that the Eagle King was sitting in Pompeii. The nobles went crazy and headed for Pompeii.

No one mentioned the plan to enter the endless deep forest and go to neighboring countries.

Now we go to Pompeii, the safest city in the south.

…………….

Pompeii.

The Eagle King returned to his giant eagle form and stood motionless on the top of the Castle of the Knights of the Mountains. However, huge magic power continued to emit, forming a violent wind in the entire sky.

The wind was blowing incessantly.

This is the royal posture Luther asked the Eagle King to put on, proving to the fleeing nobles that the Pompeii family's alliance with the Mountain Eagle was completely correct news, and was not spreading rumors.

The effect is huge.

When the fleeing nobles arrived at Pompeii, they saw the standing Eagle King and the fierce wind filling the sky, and they were immediately full of confidence.

Oh my god, is this the Pompeii family now?

Then he entered the city without hesitation.

Because too many people flocked to Pompeii in a short period of time, and they kept coming. Not only the nobility, but also some middle class people.

According to Lelouch's estimation, if the war continued, the people swarming into Pompeii might fill the city.

Pompeii would have a medium-sized city with a population of 100,000.

It will be extremely prosperous.

It's winter now, and it's cloudy and rainy, so the air is very cold and humid. Mayor Lelouch set up several posts at the northern gate.

Towels and hot soup were distributed to the nobles entering the city, and guides were set up.

At this moment, the Houston Cavaliers and James Knights took their team to Pompeii.

"I knew that the silver-winged governor of the Pompeii family must have a back-up plan." The two of them looked at the endless wind above the sky and swallowed involuntarily. The Houston Knight said excitedly.

He planned to enter Pompeii from the beginning, but after being persuaded by James, he felt doubtful about whether the Pompeii family could survive.

But there is no need to doubt it now.

The silver-winged governor of the Pompeii family, the cunning imp in the mouth of the great nobles, was indeed cunning and cunning.

"It's great to be able to settle down here." James Knight nodded involuntarily.

At this time, the guard who was distributing hot soup and towels came over. The guard shouted: "Ladies, children, and those with weak constitutions should drink the soup first."

The women in the queue and the children drank the soup first and then got towels. Immediately, the team entered the city gate. Near the city gate, someone stood on the platform and said to the two knights: "Let me tell you gentlemen about Pompeii's situation first. Although based on the Pompeii family's etiquette towards nobles, we should prepare food for you. But because of the flood There are so many people entering Pompeii that the Pompeii family cannot afford it, so the food needs to be paid for, but please rest assured, sir, it is definitely at cost and the Pompeii family does not make a penny.”

"It's because too many people are pouring into Pompeii that there are currently not many houses in Pompeii. The mayor has set up many tents in the northern area of ​​the city to temporarily accommodate the gentlemen."

"However, the city hall is currently developing villas as soon as possible. Because of the rush, the villas are a bit rough, but they are definitely more comfortable than living in tents. Each villa is worth three hundred gold coins. If gentlemen have any needs, please go to the municipal government Pay the money and wait for the villa to be built. By the way, Habs Factory will provide exquisite furniture if there is demand.”

House prices in Pompeii rose in response.

In the past, exquisitely made villas were sold for one or two hundred gold coins, but now rough ones are sold for three hundred gold coins.

This can't be helped because the city has changed from a small town to a mid-level city.

If there is demand, housing prices will naturally rise.

Moreover, they paid money first, borrowed money from the nobles, and then hired workers to develop the villa.

Luther originally planned to develop the Pompeii metropolis together with the rich, but due to the current situation, except for a few land parcels in the city that were sold to partners, all of them were properties under the name of the city hall.

The Pompeii family became fat in one fell swoop, both demographically and economically.

As for the Houston Cavaliers, James Cavaliers decided to pay for it after thinking about it for a while.

The nobles almost all made this decision 100%.

Because now they had nowhere to go but Pompeii.
