Start with Island Lord

The eldest son of the baron left the island at the age of ten and has not returned for ten years.

Everyone said that the eldest son of the baron was a waste. Only the baron wore patched leather armor and rode a skinny old horse. Year after year, he sent his meager income to Dawn City to pay the high tuition fees.

Now the baron was stabbed to death. This waste eldest son who was criticized by almost all islanders and everyone thought would stay in the prosperous Dawn City forever, actually came back.

Not only did he come back, but he also brought back three large and magnificent ships and threatened to protect them.

For a while, the islanders at Sturgeon Wharf felt like they were dreaming.

‘Agala Wala Gala~~~’

The sea fishmen also discovered the approaching fleet. Amid the shrill roars, some of the fishmen turned and rushed into the sea, swimming quickly towards the cargo ship.

They have rich experience in dealing with cargo ships.

As long as they approached from the bottom of the water and used fishbone weapons to drill several large holes in the bottom of the ship, they could watch these behemoths sink quickly into the sea.

By then, all the human races on the ship would become their prey.

Just as a large number of sea fishmen swam towards the cargo ship, the Flame Corps also began to officially enter combat status.

Captain Yop loudly issued tactical orders to his three deputy captains.

"Harry, let the sea water around the hull boil~~"

Deputy Captain Harry is a senior combat wizard, responsible for commanding 20 combat wizards in the regiment.

And this group of combat wizards, each team of five people, a total of four teams.

The team members are intermediate wizards, and the captains are all senior wizards.

Harry immediately issued specific tactics: "Team 1 and Team 2 are on standby, Team 3 on the left side of the bow, Team 4 on the right side, joint resonance cast, "Boiling Water"."

The low-level spell "Boiling Water" is the most effective way to deal with the underwater sneak attacks of sea fishmen.

The so-called 'joint resonance spellcasting' is a special spellcasting mode of the army, which requires the consumption of resonance runes. Although it does not change the strength of the spell, it can greatly increase the scale of the spell.

The joint spellcasting of 10 mid- and high-level mages is enough to cover the bottom of the ship with boiling water.

At the same time, Yop looked at the captain again: "Move forward in a line and let the boiling water cover the bottom of the entire fleet."

The captain immediately asked the crew to notify the rear ship with flags.

Yop immediately issued the third order: "Ned, electrocute the murlocs on the shore into charcoal!"

Deputy Captain Ned led 50 elite crossbowmen. The cross steel crossbows they used were very heavy, with an effective range of up to 400 meters, and were equipped with rune crossbows with various special functions.

He immediately ordered his men: "Team 1, Team 2, Team 3, target the murlocs on the shore, thunderstorm arrows, three rounds of coverage shooting."

Yop's orders continued.

"Ned, snipe the sea merfolk above the intermediate level!"

"Harry, search for the leader of the sea merfolk, and curse him to death once found!"

According to his order, a series of scorching fire lines suddenly rose from the flagship cargo ship, and after drawing beautiful arcs in the air, they landed precisely on the mudflat outside the retaining wall.

As soon as these fire lines landed, they exploded violently into a circular electric net, covering a diameter of 10 meters and lasting for five seconds.

The sea merfolk struck by lightning were either dead or disabled.

What's more poisonous is that thunderstorm arrows often fall in the most densely populated areas of sea merfolk.

So one arrow killed at least five to ten sea merfolk.

There were thirty arrows in each round of rain. After three rounds, the sea merfolk on the mudflat suddenly became sparse by 60%, and almost all the remaining sea merfolk were injured.

At the same time, there were also a series of insidious cold arrows interspersed among them, constantly harvesting the lives of the fishmen.

And those sea merfolk who swam from the bottom of the sea to the large cargo ship were even more unlucky.

Many sea murlocs went directly into the boiling water and became boiled frogs.

They were at the bottom of the sea and didn't know what was going on, so they just rushed forward. When they found something wrong, it was too late to retreat.

So many murlocs were boiled to death in the boiling water.

Wherever the cargo ship passed, white steam rose, and the sea murlocs turned upside down on the sea.

The murloc army, which was just full of vigor, was stunned by this fierce and precise attack, and the battle situation was instantly turned 180 degrees by the Flame Corps.

"Haha~ Found you!"

Deputy Captain Harry suddenly shouted: "Team 1, locate my seal, Heartbroken Curse!"

A team of five mages had already formed a pentagram formation on the deck. Each of them lowered his head, holding the standard battle staff in his hands tightly, and connected the magic power into one with the bridge of soul.

After 3 seconds, the captain suddenly raised his staff, and the gem on the tip of the staff suddenly lit up a circle of deep purple light: "Mind Curse: Broken Heart!"

As he said this, the purple light on the gem spread outward, and after spreading half a meter in the air, it dissipated in the air.

Almost at the same time, a group of obvious mana fluctuations appeared in the sea water about 180 meters away from the cargo ship.

Half a second later, the fluctuations went out like a lamp, and after a while, a sea fish man with lavender skin floated up on the sea.

Obviously, this sea fish man was the commander of this attack. Judging from the mana fluctuations just now, he should have a mana cultivation of the peak of the intermediate level.

Unfortunately, facing the curse attack of a team of mid-to-high-level combat mages, he was killed instantly.

The commander was killed, and the casualties that occurred in an instant were so tragic that the morale of the sea fish people collapsed immediately.

In a burst of meaningless screams, he spread his webbed feet and escaped into the sea.

In a blink of an eye, there were only fish bodies on the beach.

Such an efficient and terrifying fighting method only stunned the defenders of the White Sturgeon Wharf.

The crew members and sailors from the Shire County all looked at the warriors of the Flame Corps with reverence, looking at them as if they were the God of War.

Selena looked at this scene and whispered to Rosen in her heart: "The combat effectiveness of the Flame Corps is still good."

Rosen nodded slightly in agreement: "It is the strongest corps in the north of Weilan, and it is also the biggest reliance of Earl Robert."

But it is only in the north of Weilan.

Looking at the whole of Weilan, there are several powerful corps that can compete with the Flame Corps, and the Morning Light Crusades of Dawn City are even more powerful, and all of them are high-level professionals.

There are even stronger ones in the Wit Continent.

Aaron's Lionheart Corps, Kao's Flame Knights, and Levender's Royal Mage Corps are all elite among the elite, and they are simply like nuclear weapons from another world.

On the battlefield, unless they encounter a corps of the same level, they are the incarnation of the God of War in the world.

After a while, three cargo ships entered the white sturgeon dock one after another.

‘Clang~’

The gate of the dock wall opened.

A bearded man wearing worn leather armor and holding a rusty iron harpoon came out first.

Behind him were two lieutenants with the same worn armor.

Behind them was a group of villagers holding harpoons, and everyone's face showed confusion and awe.

They couldn't believe that the legendary waste eldest son would be so powerful.

Rosen had walked to the bow and looked down at the bearded man in the front.

“Tato, when I left, you were still an apprentice knight holding my father's horse. Do you still recognize me now?”

Tato raised his eyes and looked at Rosen carefully.

All the white sturgeon islanders did this.

In the sun, the young man had thick black curly hair, pure black eyes, and the same rough facial features and tall and strong body as the old baron.

He was simply a young replica of the old baron.

Tato immediately confirmed that this was definitely the old baron's biological son, otherwise they wouldn't look so similar.

As we all know, the old baron is a very loyal man who only loves one woman, so he has only one son.

Therefore, the young man in front of him must be the baron's eldest son.

So, Tato shouted: "Master, you are finally back."

Alia immediately corrected: "Not Master, but Lord!"

Rosen also frowned: "What are you hesitating about? Why don't you swear allegiance to me?!"

Tato quickly looked around the three large cargo ships loaded with cargo and the warriors in shining armor on the deck, swallowed his saliva, and then half-knelt on the mud with a "thump".

He leaned on the harpoon in his hands and shouted: "I, the defender of Sturgeon Wharf, senior knight Tato, swear allegiance to you in the name of Mother Nature!"

Rosen nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Knight Tato, I accept your allegiance."

Looking at the two sturdy men behind Tato: "My father told me that there are three knights stationed at Sturgeon Wharf. You should be Tato's adjutants, right?"

The two knights were shocked by Rosen's battle and nodded repeatedly.

"Why don't you be loyal to me?"

"Plop~Plop~"

The two knights' adjutants also swore allegiance immediately.

Rosen nodded with satisfaction: "Now, organize the villagers to help unload the boat!"

While speaking, he threw ten gold coins with the hand of the mage: "This is a reward for your bravery in fighting. Take it and divide it among yourselves."

Tato took it and held the gold coins tightly in his hand, and his heart suddenly became hot.

'The new baron is so generous! ’

This was the biggest reward he had ever received in his life. Although the old baron also received rewards, they were either a chicken or a leather gauntlet, which was just a consolation.

‘You brought back so many supplies and such powerful warriors. It seems that you have done a great job in Dawn City. ’

His hesitation disappeared, and he decided to serve the new baron well. He immediately turned around and yelled at the villagers: "Why are you still standing there? Why don't you help the lord unload the boat?!"

The villagers woke up as if from a dream and came up to help unload the boat.

Rosen also got off the boat with everyone.

After walking a few steps, a young man dressed as an ordinary fisherman strode over from the crowd.

It was Shitou who came to the White Sturgeon Island to investigate the situation in advance.

His face was a little serious, as if he had found out some bad news.

Rosen waved his hand to let Kruber go to command the unloading of supplies, and he and Selena went to meet him and waited for him to report the situation.

Stonard looked worried: "Lord, the situation on the island is not good. There is a very serious civil strife."

Rosen shrugged: "This is really bad news. What is the specific situation?"

"In short, your uncle Sir Alais and your uncle Sir Thad both claim that they have the right to inherit the baron title."

"There are three other knights, two of whom support your uncle. One supports your uncle. Every day they bring their knights and farmers from various towns to fight in the fields."

Shitou wanted to say that they were fighting, but the scale was too small and there was no equipment. Both sides were in ragged clothes. There was basically no tactics when fighting, and they relied on blood and courage.

So, it is too flattering to say that they were fighting. It is more appropriate to say that they were fighting.

Princess Selena laughed out loud: "Rosen, now I really feel like I have been exiled."

The barren environment, bad reputation, and infighting that cannot be put on the table, it is truly a barbaric and backward place on the edge of civilization.

Rosen had already known about these situations, and he just said them through Stonard's mouth.

He smiled and assured his wife: "Don't worry, we can rest in Crescent Castle tonight."

Stonard immediately shook his head: "Master, it's not that simple."

"Sir Alais, your uncle, has the upper hand in the fight and occupied Crescent Castle half a month ago."

"I also found out that more than 60 Crescent Knights who were originally loyal to the master have all turned their allegiance to Sir Alais."

"So, Sir Alais has currently obtained the loyalty of hundreds of knights, plus their knights and followers, there are more than 400 regular warriors. And these Most of the warriors are currently in Crescent City. "

Selena blinked: "Oh, this is really bad news."

Rosen shrugged: "It's a bit bad, but fortunately we are prepared."

"Stone, is there anything else?"

"Yes!"

Stonard's face became more and more solemn, and he lowered his voice and said: "I found that the knights may have secretly cooperated with the forest elves. Master, it is very likely that he was not killed by the forest elves alone."

Rosen raised his eyebrows slightly: "Hehe~ This is quite interesting."

This shows that there are some new situations hidden in the mountains and forests of the Sturgeon Island that he doesn't know about.

After thinking for a while, he said: "I know about this, you can return to the team."

At the same time, he silently said in his heart: 'Raifu, I want to defeat Sir Alais as quickly as possible. Based on the current information, what is the most suitable tactic?'

Raifu's "Heart of the God of War" has a branch ability called "War Simulation", which was trained by Rosen using various war records on the Wit Continent.

There are both big strategies and small tactics.

At this time, the ability was activated and the deduction began immediately.

One second later, the answer was given: "Use elite troops to blitz Crescent City."

Just as Rosen thought.

This kind of small-scale war deduction with less than a thousand people is not difficult for the human brain, so the ability of "War Deduction" is dispensable.

The real advantage of the "War Deduction" ability is the deduction of large-scale military operations with tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, or millions of troops.

Rosen didn't know whether he could use this ability in his lifetime.

Of course, this is all for the future, and elite troops are most needed at present.

So he turned and walked towards the Flame Regiment that was being reorganized,

"Captain Yop, we have to have a good talk."

Yop's ears are very good. He had heard the news of Stonard a long time ago. When he saw Rosen coming, he naturally knew his purpose.

He smiled in his heart: 'Now there is money to be made again. I must empty this baron's pocket~'

Rosen saw his expression and roughly guessed his thoughts, and laughed in his heart.

"You came to my island and you still want to make money from me. Spend it wherever you earn it."
