biting-cold wind, snowflakes are flying, and heaven and Earth are vast. Davao City, standing in the wilderness, was quickly stained white by the blizzard.

Davao City is located in the middle of the Eastern Alliance, and its scale is actually not as big as the main town of the ordinary Lord Baron. The 20-meter-high city wall encloses an area of ​​14 square kilometers, in which 3 kings, 6 dukes, and 15 marquis live. Even if the area of ​​Davao City is twice as small, it cannot be called Davao Town.

Of course, the princes and princes of Davao City are all self-appointed, and their will cannot even carry through the entire city. However, they do have Knight's bloodline and last name. According to the rules of the Glory Code, priests, knights, and the people, all three constitute a legal land.

There are 120,000 acres of land that can be planted for pasture and a river around this small city. In the eastern wilderness full of devil's grass, its natural conditions can be described as blessed by heaven. Moreover, Davao City is only a 54-day carriage journey from Borui Kingdom, and it will not take more than 70 days for the convoy to rush to the border town of Suse Kingdom.

The two kingdoms of Borui and Suse conferred all the fallen aristocrats of Davao City as Lords of the Kingdom, and opened roads in their name to build supply points along the way. Over time, this place has become an important trade transfer station and business foothold of the Eastern Alliance.

Davao City does not produce food, but it is quite prosperous, with a permanent population of more than 8,000. Every second season of rain and snow, the roads are slippery and slippery, the large caravans will stay in Davao City for two months, wait for the spring to melt, and then set off for the destination. The caravan brought a dazzling array of goods and bulging purses. The city is full of magnificent shops, taverns and hostels. The flow of people on the street, with big snowflakes, shuttled back and forth, and it was very lively, completely desolate and deserted in the season without water.

With a loud noise of "peng", a silhouette suddenly smashed through the wooden door of the tavern and fell to the center of the street, causing pedestrians to scream and evade. This is a hair grey-white, middle-aged man with a strong stature. His gorgeous fur was stained with sewage, and there seemed to be scorch marks from flames on it. He curled up into a weird posture, lying on the ground and couldn't help convulsing, apparently in shock.

"It's Mr. Lieber of the Gray Rabbit Caravan!"

A sharp-eyed spectator recognized the identity of the victim. The crowd watching the excitement was suddenly upset.

"Sure enough, it's Master Lie."

"Now have fun."

"Who dare to make trouble in Davao City? It's really big Courage!"

"Hurry up and inform the guard mercenary of Brotherhood...A few people to help, hurry up and carry Master Liber to the church. If he died here, he could smash our sign."

Davao City fish and dragons mixed in together, fights are commonplace, and it’s not worth making a fuss about nothing if you die. But no one can openly hurt the gold master of Davao City.

Caravan is the gold master of Davao City.

Master Lieber of the Gray Rabbit Caravan is very outgoing and generous, and is very popular among the residents of Davao City. What's more, the business of the gray rabbit caravan is the property of the masked brother, and among the residents here, seven out of ten are Outer Members of the Brotherhood. The caravan leader of Brotherhood was beaten to death on the site of Brotherhood, which instantly aroused the anger of the residents.

However, brotherhood is divided into the Three Great Sects department, with more than 20 forces. Ribe may have been injured by an opponent inside the brotherhood. The surrounding crowd maintained basic restraint, but faintly divided into several large and small gangs, facing each other, with swords drawn and bows bent, ready to join forces at any time.

It didn’t take long for the guard mercenaries of Davao City to rush over. The headed mercenary Captain probed Lieber’s breath, opened his eyelids and looked at his pupils, and motioned to him with his jaw. There is no mortal danger for the time being. Just as the guard mercenary was about to take Ribe away, a sharp voice sounded:

"No one can touch him!"

A chunky old man walked out of the tavern. , He was wearing a luxurious bearskin coat, his face was blue and white, and his bags under his eyes were heavy, giving people an overly frivolous sense of wine.

When the mercenary Captain saw him, his murderous-looking expression immediately changed to a flattering smile. Nodded said with a bow, "Father Bilka, are you there?"

The nobles in Davao City have nothing to do every day, either hosting a banquet or reveling, or working hard to create people. The city government has nothing to do with them. Father Bilka is the actual power holder. In the name of the nobles in Davao City, he hired the Mercenary group of the Masked Brotherhood to maintain the order of the city, collect taxes from merchants and distribute them to every guard mercenary.

Fr. Bilka was nodded majestic and reserved, pointing at Libe who was unconscious, and screamed: "He is an evil wizard!"

The crowd was blowing up the pot. Scattered around, the guard mercenaries scrambled and fled the scene, hiding in the crowd, shivering, and even the one-handed spear in their hands could not be grasped securely. Two sturdy, solemn faces passed through the broken door of the tavern, took Ribe's arm, and dragged him toward the church in the town.

The pleasure seeker in the tavern just stick one's head around to look for came out, and began to discuss with lingering fears and excitement.

"Scared me to death... Ribe is actually the heir of the devil."

"I saw it, a fireball the size of a human head appeared in his hand... It must be the legendary hellfire."

"The Supreme Lord is... Ribe intends to burn the whole city to please his devil parents. Fortunately, the evil one can't hide the eyes of the priest. "

"Praise the Supreme Lord, I saw that the warrior only waved his hand and shot off the devil's heirs. The terrifying hellfire could not hurt him."

"eat Frog fool! Didn’t you see that? That warrior is a noble and upright Paladin!” Only then did the people on the street find out that Father Bilka stood beside a cloaked man. The mysterious person in the package, he must be the legendary Paladin.

People believe that the noble Paladin is the embodiment of justice and power. The passage between Paladin and the evil wizard is only circulated in the ballads of the bard. Today, they witnessed Paladin subduing the wizard and saving Davao City. The believers knelt in the snow and praised the glory of the Supreme Lord in unison.

Fr. Bilka was satisfied with nodded, and his voice was instructed sharply: "Tomorrow at noon, Lord Paladin Konlar. Trigoval will personally preside over the ceremony of purifying evil. Everyone must let everyone know the news of victory... that who , You take someone to arrest all the entourages of the Gray Rabbit Caravan, and interrogate them carefully, don’t let the wizard’s facilitators slip through the net.” After that, the priest turned to Paladin and flattered said with a smile: "My lord, shall we go back to church now?"

Mysterious person slightly nodded, moves forward. The crowd spontaneously gave up a wide passage and watched Paladin and the priest leave in awe and gratitude. Some devout believers even knelt down and kissed Paladin's footprints. The people in the tavern were fighting for the wine glasses Paladin had used, and they had become a ball.

The church is the most magnificent building in Davao City, with solemn and gorgeous interior furnishings. Paladin Kandal bypassed the main building of the church and walked into a simple small building in the backyard.

The decoration in the building is completely different from the plain appearance, the redwood furniture of Gambis Kingdom, the woolen painted carpet by Wharton Prairie, the oil painting of the spider silk lady of Suse Kingdom, the crystal chandeliers of Naville, the fine gold of Borui Kingdom Candlesticks and water lizard oil candles, Dodo's ornamental armor, Sasan's centaur leather sofas and other luxury goods are all in good quality.

Konlar took off his cloak, and several young girls with beautiful looks and thin dresses greeted them with bare white feet, but were driven away by Father Bilka. These girls are innocent and cute, but there is a charm in their eyebrows. They were intimate with Father Bilka, and they had obviously been trained by him.

Paladin’s blue eyes shrunk slightly, and he said coldly, "You will enjoy it."

Fr. Bilka took the cloak graciously, shyly The pig-like fat face said: "Let Trigoval-sama laugh, I just have this hobby."

The only specialty of Eastern Alliance is population, and the biggest trade is population trade.

Strictly speaking, population trade is not a crime. After all, the upper class has a tradition of persuading money for adoption. Only the children of ordinary families who follow noble masters have the basis for climbing, and their living conditions will be better.

Knight belongs to an extraordinary human who is moving towards perfection. When Knight’s bloodline spreads to an ordinary person, his beautiful appearance and healthy body have become intuitive standards for judging whether a person is noble or not.

If there is something good on the top, the down will be prosperous. The Eastern Alliance was originally a place of exile for the nobles. There was no natural condition to open up the territory. The down-and-out nobles were trapped in the island city, and there was nothing to do except to breed offspring.

The ancestors of the Eleanor family relied on population trade and lover diplomacy to create the Suse Kingdom. With the example of Eliano in the front, the population trade of the Eastern Alliance is booming and gradually formed a large-scale and surprisingly profitable industry.

The caravans will bring the collected Handsome Men and Beautiful Women to the Eastern Alliance, sell them to the local nobles, use the persuasion money to adopt their young children, and then transfer them to the lords in need at a high price. Train as a servant, a maid, a dead family member, or a secret knight.

In fact, the priest also needs to improve the appearance and temperament of the offspring to conform to the aesthetics of the upper class. It is not surprising that some beautiful girls are adopted by the church in Davao City, but Father Bilka's hobby of ruining underage girls makes Konlar Knight disgusted.

However, Father Bilka was born in the oldest Holy Mountain monastery. Since the Pope Lineage was emptied, the priest of the Holy Mountain monastery gradually withdrew from the power core of the Church and became the last in the church monastery. The Trigoval family took a lot of hands and feet to take the former political opponents into their own hands and let them take charge of the educational affairs of the Eastern Alliance.

Bilka shrank in Davao City and was impossible to become a high priest throughout his life. A fallen priest is worthy of a fallen aristocracy, and the upper-class atmosphere of the Eastern Alliance is naturally extravagant. The most important thing is that Bilka is loyal and useful to the Trigoval family. Konlar will not blame the family's hawks and minions because of his own moral sense.

"Master Trigoval, you have achieved the Silver Tier and now you have captured a wizard. Level 4 Paladin is just around the corner." Father Bilka said flatly: "I can't leave Davao City and join the Lord The promotion ceremony. I specially prepared 100 Holy Power crystals as my personal gift to you."

Konlar's face was slightly dark, and he said with a deep voice: "This time I can easily capture a wizard. Thanks to the help of black robe bishop Charlie...you arrange it, and I will bring little black robe to see him now."

"As you wish, sir." Bilka bowed and retired.

After a while, he returned to the house with a thin boy wearing a black robe. The boy was about 8 years old, holding a small wooden box tightly in his hand, and wanted to bow when he saw Paladin.

Konlar raised his hand to stop him, stood up and said, "Jamie, take the box. I will take you to meet your mentor."

Boy Jamie followed Paladin and left. The residence of Father Erka. They entered the back door of the church, followed the spiral staircase, and climbed to the top of the tall tower. Konlar pushed open the wooden door of the attic, a strange smell assaults the senses, like honey soaked in rotten flesh, making people feel sick and nauseous after a sniff.

Jamie pinched his nose, entered the cramped attic, and saw a scrawny old man sitting in a rocking chair. He was covered with a thick blanket, beside him was a fierce mountain ape with smooth hair and a giant half-human owl. The mountain ape looked at the two visitors with curious eyes, while the owl closed his eyes and motionless, like a lifeless specimen.

"A little wizard?"

The old man’s voice was dry and dull. It seemed that he hadn’t spoken for many years. There were two dark red fires flashing in the deep-set eye sockets. As if it can pierce the soul of a person. Jamie couldn't help shivering, holding the wooden box, trying to hide behind Paladin, but was picked up.

"Master Charlie, Jamie is a pious child, and his parents are servants of our lord." Konlar took Jamie's hand, said with a slight smile.

The old man’s dark red eyes became soft, no longer possessing the breathtaking formidable power, nodded said: "This is the heir you found for me?"

"Yes."

Konlar .Trigoval lowered his head and said to Jamie: "The adult in front of you is the chief of the black robe guardian, the sky patrol, the insight, the devout, the black robe, the court Bishop, the 41st Speaker of the Shadow Council-Charlie."

"Only he can save your soul from the hands of the devil."
