"call……………"

You Lian put down the file in her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, and a sense of tiredness sprang up.

Although after accepting this body and absorbing his memory, Yulian also understood that things were troublesome, but he did not expect that it would be so difficult.

Before Yulian was the detailed report of Twilight Town, and according to the results of this report, Yulian had some headaches.

And the reason is still in this land-although the nobles did give Felix the young man with real and valid documents, but they must know that they are not fools, in case the other party knows to die, and then runs If he deliberately messed up everything there, then he would be able to face the loess and turn away from the sky, leaving his world with a wave of his hand, but in the future, the reconstruction and stability work here still had to be handed over to those big The nobles had a headache. Naturally, those nobles would not fail to take this into consideration. Therefore, what they gave Felix was a piece of "noble confinement".

On this continent, there are two forms of fiefdoms. One is "royal fiefs." This fiefdom is directly ordered by the royal family and granted to other people's territories. Of course, those who have been honored to obtain this kind of land are those who have made outstanding contributions to the royal family, or have blood relations with the royal family. Most of the territories obtained by these people are sufficient to maintain their status and reputation, and they have relatively sufficient resources. The other type is the "noble feudal land", which is used by the lords who received the "royal feudal land" to reward their subordinates. Unlike the "royal feudal land", the "noble feudal land" and There is no general sphere of influence, and in fact, it is very difficult to develop such aristocracy, because those nobles will only hand over some of the specified towns and fortresses to the jurisdiction. It is as if the land that Yulian now owns. Although the great noble has given him the entire Twilight Mountains, he can only collect taxes from Twilight Town. As for the villages and towns outside the Twilight Mountains, although they are also powerful Within the scope, but Yulian has no jurisdiction over them.

As a small town isolated from the world, Twilight Town itself has no productive capacity. They live here for generations. Except for relying on the cultivated farmland, they are fighting the beasts in the forest. There is no special way to make money. And this town's monthly tax can only pay more than 100 gold coins.

More than one hundred gold coins are not small for ordinary people, but for nobles, it is not enough to stop the teeth. Obviously, it is indicated in the document that Youlian only has the power to manage and collect taxes on Twilight Town, and it is precisely to restrict his development. Although for the nobles, a dying person has nothing to worry about, it is dying The previous fight back was not what they wanted to see. Anyway, Twilight Town has a small number of small people, and the total population does not add up to a hundred people. In addition, there is no economic power. Even if you think of military rebellion, you don’t have the ability to do it.

The only advantage is that, for the sake of those who are dying, those big nobles no longer have any concerns with Felix, and they are very generous in reducing his tax for one year, that is, in this year Within, Twilight Castle no longer needs to pay taxes to those big nobles, which is the only good news for Yulian. Otherwise, Twilight Town only has a tax of one hundred gold coins per month, and will have to pay half of it. If you give it to those nobles, then even if you have the ability to pass the sky, it is estimated that you can only shake your hands and how far you have run.

Twilight Castle is not a small castle. In the era of Yulian, it was located on the border of the kingdom, backed by the Twilight Mountains, and was easy to defend and difficult to attack. The twilight mountains are steep and complicated, and the only place of gentleness is here. It blends into the Twilight Town below and supports each other. Under the protection of the castle, Twilight Town will not be attacked by the enemy, and with the support of Twilight Town, the castle will not have problems due to the lack of supplies, plus the clear spring water flowing from the top, it can be said that it is almost not Lost fortress.

In the era of Yulian, the coalition forces attacked here for half a year. Although the number of enemies was far better than the garrison army in the castle, the coalition forces eventually returned without success. After paying the price of nearly ten thousand corpses, they were helpless. Has chosen to retreat. And the legend is precisely because of these tens of thousands of corpses, this forest has become so lush.

But now, here has lost the military value it once had. Relying on this fortress, the kingdom’s territorial boundaries have expanded by a third, and because of this, the original military fortress has no effect, and the position of Twilight Castle , But decided that it is impossible to transform into the direction of commercial or traffic towns. Therefore, this once brilliant fortress has completely ended, and Twilight Town has lost the glory of the past, and now it is almost nothing. Where there is meaning.

They are like warriors, and when war no longer needs them, their meaning of existence disappears.

Shaking his head, leaving these boring feelings behind his head, Yulian refocused his attention back to the information in front of him, and there were a lot of things to do. The work of cleaning and cleaning up the castle can be left to the group of wandering souls, but the management of the castle will not work, and Yulian is not planning to live alone here. He has his own plan, and for this plan, he needs the same things Quite a lot.

For such a situation, Yulian is not unfamiliar. In his own world, he also started from scratch and eventually achieved a career. If it were not for fate, he would not leave his own world and come to this magical and eccentric country. Later, in accordance with his desires, Yulian successfully became one of the most powerful beings in this world. What’s more, as early as that time, Yulian had already considered the various situations that might occur in the future and made preparations accordingly.

But now it looks like the situation is worse than starting from scratch.

No matter how powerful Yulian is, there are only two hands and ten fingers, and it is impossible to cover everything. Therefore, he must find talents who are suitable for his work and have talents. But for now, this is obviously a luxury.

"In any case, I can only rely on myself at the moment."

With a helpless sigh, You Lian closed the document in front of her, and then, a cold wind blew through, and the document placed in front of You Lian was gently rolled up by the wind, and hovered and fluttered in the air. On the shelf next to it. Although the castle has been uninhabited for nearly thirty years, the previous residents were afraid to bring the "Devil's Curse" to themselves before leaving, so they did not remove the furniture placed here. You Lian didn't have to bother about this. In addition, because of the inhabitation of wandering souls, ordinary bugs didn't dare to get close to the castle, so the furniture was not particularly damaged. At least so far, it is still in a usable state.

The cold air faintly came a faint laughter, echoed in this dark and huge castle, which would have made people feel fear and uneasiness, but for Yulian, this is just the little wandering souls. Games, so he didn't stop each other too much. Originally Yulian planned to go to bed to rest and make plans again, but the whisper in his soul made him stop.

You Lian clearly felt that the originally gentle soul wind suddenly became fierce and confused. He listened attentively to the wandering souls' reports, then raised his eyebrows.

"There is such a thing?"

You Lian said to herself, with a trace of surprise in her eyes.

The light and warmth emitted by the burning torch dispelled the darkness and coldness in the tunnel. Youlian held the torch and walked down the frosted steps step by step. His expression was serious, and his right hand was on the waist. On the handle, even if you don't feel like a final knight, Yulian can easily feel the danger in the darkness.

There are wraiths here.

In fact, the original wandering souls should continue to clean the castle for their owners as they did last night, and keep it clean and hygienic. But after coming here, the wandering souls were surprised to find that they could not work. Because there is a stronger and colder atmosphere than them, which is dominating here. In desperation, wandering souls had no choice but to report to their masters and give it to Youlian for processing.

This is a very strange thing for Yulian.

You know, this group of wandering souls are not ordinary ghosts. They were born in the moonlight years when the magic was most developed thousands of years ago. They have powerful powers themselves. Coupled with powerful soul magic, they have been baptized by time. Although its power is not as powerful as the mage, but in the soul world, it is a rare adversary. In fact, as a former battlefield, there were countless people who died in this land, and complaining spirits were naturally not uncommon, but most of those complaining spirits were completely consumed by wandering souls and eliminated as food, and now, actually, There are these wraiths that the wandering soul can not eliminate, which undoubtedly made Yulian interested.

And now, standing in the dark tunnel, Yulian finally understood why the wandering souls could not advance.

The air is filled with not only the wraith’s unique fear of death and obsession with life, but also full of powerful phantom energy. This is a unique magical energy. It only affects those who have no entity. , Unreal existence reacts. It is for this reason that for wandering souls without entities, such a place full of ghost energy is their dead ground. As long as they dare to enter, then there is only one way to die.

But why is there such a powerful ghost energy spreading here?

Yulian frowned and continued to walk in. Generally speaking, only the mage radiates magic after death. Is it true that a mage died in his castle? But why do wandering souls never seem to find out about it?

The narrow corridor was dark and dark, and even the light on the torch was dimmed. Turning around the corner, the killing intention of the soul became more obvious. You can find the source without requiring confirmation.

That is a shaft.

It was supposed to be behind the wall of the dungeon. Because of the time, the gap in the wall of the dungeon collapsed and exposed, so that the originally enclosed atmosphere leaked out. The well water had already dried up, revealing bare inner walls and masonry. Yulian jumped off, turned his head, and then easily found his goal.

That is a corpse.

In other words, something that was supposed to be a corpse.

Because of the passage of time, the clothing has become dilapidated, and most of the bones have been buried under the loess. Yulian moved the torch, shining on the corpse in front of him, and then his line of sight moved to look around.

Under the light of the fire, what appeared on the wall was a sad scratch.

The stone used for the construction of water wells, because of the pressure and permeability to be considered, are all good stones, even if they are cut with a sword, they may not be able to leave any marks on it. The well water is dry, and the moss cultivated by the moist water left behind will make the surface of the stone bricks more slippery, but at this moment, on those stone bricks, there are left scratches, which are left on the hard rocks. You can see how strong the other party's desire for survival is.

However, fate still did not give any opportunities because of the other party's efforts.

This is destiny, no matter how hard some people work, they cannot achieve their goals...even if they sacrifice their lives.

Yulian crouched down and tried to clean up the pile of corpses. So far, that wraith has not appeared, but in order to lure the other party, Yulian also has his own ideas and plans.

And the moment he crouched down, the cold, violent energy suddenly burst out from behind Yulian, blowing out the already torn torch.
