Warlord: King of All Clans

Noreen stayed in the river bend for a week before setting off back.

During this period, Noreen was very pleased to see that Leo was not as distracted as before, except studying hard and managing his territory.

Although her political and business abilities are average, she is a serious college student who graduated from the Imperial Capital War College, so she still has some vision.

Seeing the thriving industrial and agricultural industries in Hewan, we know that this place has amazing potential and a solid foundation. There is no need to worry as in the past that it will suddenly be razed to the ground by surrounding forces.

Norin really wanted to contribute her strength to help River Bay, but River Bay was not short of an extraordinary soldier now, so the most she could do was to practice swordsmanship with Leo.

She didn't even meet the threshold of asking Freya to scrub her body.

When Noreen left, all the members of the big house came to see her off.

Noreen looked at Leo, about to say something, then suddenly gave Olivia a hug and said, "Olivia, I'm leaving."

Olivia handed over her gift, and the gift for the little mouse had already been piled on the griffin's back. "Nolin, be careful on your way."

After hugging Olivia, she glanced at Leo, hesitated a little, and then hugged Freya, "Freya, I'm leaving."

Freya was not very familiar with her, but when she was hugged, she was very happy and felt that she had gained a good friend. "Sister Noreen, be careful on your journey!"

Seeing that Norin was about to hug the dog-headed man next to her again, Olivia couldn't stand it anymore, so she pushed Leo in front of her and encouraged Norin with her eyes.

Compared to the passionate and daring wolf girl from the West, this noble lady from the South is still a little conservative.

Norin blushed, hugged Leo, and whispered in his ear: "Leo, I'm leaving, take care of yourself."

After saying this, without waiting for Leo's reaction, he turned around, quickly climbed onto the griffin, and flew south.

I am afraid that this time I will be gone for many years and it will be hard to see me again.

Olivia watched the griffin disappear completely into the clouds, then looked at Leo, slightly unhappy, "How is it, you are so happy with the beauty in your arms, right?"

Leo was angry, "She hugged you too."

Olivia whispered, "Sister Noreen is really nice. I would be very happy if I could marry her. Unfortunately, the road to the South is long. If Knight Noreen comes, who will take care of my little mouse?"

Leo had never thought about this at all. He was not a straight man, so how could he not understand Noreen's thoughts.

But now that he had Olivia, he never considered marrying anyone else.

When facing other opposite sex, one can only express emotions within the bounds of courtesy so as not to destroy one's warm family.

The customs in the north and south are different. In addition to farming, men here spend half of the year working outside to make a living.

During this period, women were the backbone of the family, raising livestock, farming, and caring for the elderly and children.

This is also the reason why women in the North are so tough, because they do have the strength to do so.

Under this survival culture, the status of women in the North is not as low as that in the other two regions, and they have a lot of say at home.

In the evening, Leo finished his government affairs and returned to the big house. Six came up to him with a small box and said to Leo, "Master, I have a gift for you!"

Leo was very happy and showed a relieved smile of an old father, then took the box. At the same time, he saw Freya and Fesha hiding behind and watching.

Freya: “Hehe.”

Fraser: “Haha.”

At this time, Olivia had already returned home from get off work. Leo's mind raced, and he held up the box and said, "Olivia, Six is ​​so good. He gave me a gift."

As he said that, he handed the box over.

Olivia was also very happy, "Six has grown up."

As he opened the box, a piece of cake inside popped up and hit Olivia directly in the face as the lid opened.

Olivia: “…”

Leo: “…”

Six: “…”

Freya and Fisa were ready to run away with their tails between their legs.

But it was too late. The omniscient Riverbend Mistress guessed the whole situation the moment she was attacked.

She took two steps to catch up with Freya and Fesa, picking them up one in each hand.

"Hehe, huh?"

“Haha, huh?”

Amidst a burst of ghostly howls, Leo looked at the wooden box. Under the cake tray was a coil spring as thick as four fingers and a small pressure mechanism.

Needless to say, this must be Fraser's masterpiece and Freya's clever idea.

The four springs were different from the springs Leo usually saw. Their length and pressure were almost the same, reaching industrial grade.

Watchmakers in big cities also have the technology to make springs by hand, but the process is complicated and costly, so the technology will not be easily leaked out.

Hewan did not have any senior craftsmen in this area. Even with Al's guidance, the technical level was not up to standard and stable production was still impossible.

Now, Fraser can use it to play pranks.

Small objects with a wide range of applications, similar to springs, began to pop up like mushrooms in the river bend.

Half of them come from the technologies of various races stored in the atrium system Aiel, and the other half come from the inventions of the River Bay artisan system itself.

The human race's technology, which had been stagnant for hundreds of years due to separatist wars, has reached the point where it is about to burst forth.

According to the original historical trajectory, the blowout should have started from the most technologically advanced imperial capital in the southern border, and after completing the industrial revolution, it would slowly spread to the entire continent.

But now, Hewan has surpassed the Imperial Capital and become the leader.

Leo was getting busier and busier, and he looked a bit like a ruler. Although he was young, he had the calm aura of a superior.

There is no way around it. Not everyone will accept a lord who is approachable and cheerful. Some people will feel despised and neglected, while others will despise and neglect others involuntarily.

If you are close to them, they will be disrespectful; if you are far away from them, they will complain.

But this also made Freya very unhappy.

The good friend who was willing to eat with her in the bulldozer style will never come back!

The new year passed quickly. The vibrant and prosperous Hewan seemed silent to outsiders because it had not taken any external actions.

The northern earldom that behaves most similarly to the newly added Earldom of the Reach is the Earldom of Kurolov to the east.

After consuming most of the Earldom of Isharov, the Kurolov family chose to lie dormant and did not mobilize a single soldier for two years.

But unlike the relatively despised River Bay, every earl in the North was extremely wary of this behemoth.

According to intelligence from the Duke's Palace, Count Kurolov's family has already raised hundreds of dragon knights, five thousand elite orc heavy armored soldiers, and five thousand troll archers.

Coupled with its already very powerful Earl's Legion and Pirate Fleet, its strength is enough to compete with the Grand Duke of the North.

As for the Blood Moon Sect that cooperated with him, after being destroyed by the Elf Queen, it fell silent and seemed to be unable to recover.

However, these are all external information. In fact, since last year, the leader of the Blood Moon Sect has issued an internal decree to mobilize thousands of Blood Moon followers and more than a dozen branch churches under their command.

Finding their God!

It is the beginning of spring again. Farmers in the jurisdiction of Isenpol are returning to their fields. Caravans are appearing on the highway, and hundreds of boats are racing on the Anzeno River.

The followers of the Blood Moon Church also slowly came here.
