Transcendent Noble

Outside the car, the neigh of the horses awakened Victor. He opened his eyes and tried to sit up, only to find a soft and silky body close to him in the bay of his arms. Looking down, she found that Lilia was snuggling in her arms like a little white sheep.

Looking at the girl's long eyelashes and the corners of her lips, Victor couldn't help but smile.

On the 3rd day of Nelson’s return, Victor officially announced to everyone that Lilia would be his personal maid, and a special celebration banquet was held that night.

The banquet was very successful. All the members of the hill camp sent their blessings to Lilia, especially those war bear mercenaries. It can be said that they are all Uncle uncles who watched Lilia grow up. Lilia can have After such a home, they feel sincerely happy.

That night, there were more than a dozen young guards drunk drunk. Lilia was a high-powered person and had long been famous, but this didn’t stop the young man’s admiration for her. . Now, the most delicate flowers in the camp have fallen into the arms of fief lord, and they can only use luscious purple cane wine to relieve their depression.

There was also Nelson who was drunk at the dinner. It was not that he was reluctant to bear his younger sister. Nelson did not have such delicate emotions. What really moved Nelson was that Victor insisted on holding a celebration banquet for Lilia this time. No nobleman would hold a banquet for his personal maid, which is not in line with noble etiquette. After all, this is a world of Knight bloodline only.

Victor is not bound by noble etiquette. He wanted to hold a banquet for Lilia, so he did it for no more reason. If you have to find a reason, it is that Victor wants to announce to everyone that this young girl who is as delicate as a flower now belongs to me, so don't worry about it.

Perhaps because I can’t feel my arms around her, Lilia pursed her little red mouth in her sleep, squeezed it in, and then wrapped around Victor’s body like an octopus. , Making Victor feel both funny and warm.

In Victor’s view, Nicole and him are like a pair of tight red cedars, with branches and leaves connected and close to each other, but even if one of them is broken, the other can grow into a towering tree, because they All have strength and faith.

And Lilia is different. She is like a vine attached to a big tree. The height she can reach depends entirely on the growth of the big tree. If one day, the big tree really falls, then she must also Will wither.

Thinking of Nicole and Lilia, Victor's mind came up with a beautiful and alluring fascinating silhouette, which is the target he is going to visit this time: Mrs. Count-Sylvia.

Speaking of which, Sylvia is Victor’s first woman after his birth, but Victor feels that Sylvia is like a beautiful lake. Walking by the lake, you will find the scenery here is charming, nothing more beautiful can be imagined, and at the same time you will feel that the lake is deep and unmeasurable, which makes people afraid of it.

Sylvia deliberately provoked the conflict between him and Velpin Baron, forcibly divided up 50% of the purple cane wine, and only sold Nelson's January grain, which did not surprise Victor.

What really puzzles Victor is, why did Sylvia invest in him in the beginning?

Sylvia not only gave him forty thousand Kinsoul, half-sold and half-sold a batch of armaments to him, and also dispatched Knight to help him stabilize the situation. This is where Victor is most confused now. At the earliest, Victor thought that this was a compromise made by the York family because they were eager to dominate the territory. But now, he no longer has such naive ideas. At the time, he was no money, no one, and powerless, and he was not qualified to negotiate terms with the York family.

Is it because Mrs. Count has tasted the half-elf and gave him the red envelope? Thinking of this, Victor's face went dark.

In any case, Victor now needs the York family to support him for more than two years, so he is coming to Black Castle Town, and he is going to hand the noose to Sylvia.

Actually, Victor has already thought very clearly that he simply cannot follow the path of self-sufficiency, because he has a fatal weakness: he has no family support!

So, when the purple cane wine showed great potential, the York family cut off the possibility of Victor's return to the family, squeezed the market share of purple cane wine, and put pressure on him through food. This is a great nobleman. Normal reaction. Victor believes that, let alone he has no money now, even if he has money, the York family can prevent him from buying a grain, and it can also prevent his purple cane liquor from selling. The York family is telling him: Victor will no longer be allowed to develop freely, they want purple cane wine!

However, it doesn’t matter. The rope is not necessarily a puppy, it may be a giant dragon. At that time, who will lead whom?

Just as Victor was thinking about it, he found a pair of bright and intelligent big eyes staring at him, not knowing when Lilia was awake.

"Victor, what are you thinking about?" Lilia rubbed her tender face on Victor's chest lightly. She especially liked the breath on Victor, which was natural and fresh, just like after the rain Forest.

"I'm thinking about Sylvia."

Feeling the girl's elastic skin, Victor said comfortably, since he had a close relationship, Lilia has stuck to him especially.

"Who is Sylvia? Is she as beautiful as Nicole elder sister?"

Lilia flapped her big eyes and asked softly, but the girl’s red lips pursed slightly, Exposed her jealousy, it has nothing to do with high or low, jealous is a woman's nature.

"Sylvia is Mrs. Count York and the principal of the York family. We visited her this time." Victor put his arms around the girl and explained softly.

"Victor, are we going to hand over all the purple cane wine to the York family?" the girl asked unwillingly.

"Of course, we have no choice."

Victor nodded, and said: "Lilia, do you know the strength of the York family? This family has been inherited for thousands of years. Tenacious is known for being tenacious. By now, they are the leading nobles in the human world."

"There are five Silver-ranked Great Knights published by the Count York family, and the Bronze-ranked Knights are no less than 20. There are hundreds of knight trainees, 3,000 elite soldiers, more than 20,000 vassals, no less than 40,000 people, and countless free citizens rely on the York family to live."

"This is just the York family itself. Strength, they also have many vassal families. Among them, count has one, viscount has two, and Baron has five."

"Once the York family starts a war, they can mobilize more than 5,000 troops. Such a family A real military nobleman! Do you think we can refuse?"

Victor's eyes flashed. Such a huge monster does not scare him, but rather excites him inexplicably.

"The York family is so strong, why did they leave their homes and run to Centaur Hills?" Lilia curl one's lip asked grimly. No matter how strong the other party is, being bullied will always make her very uncomfortable.

"This is the style of the York family. Try to avoid strong opponents and save your own strength. If you are pressed, you will fight to the end." Victor explained.

"In fact, most millennial nobles have their own family styles, such as the unity of the Eskry family and the thrift of the Chebman family. It is these characteristics that unite the power of the family and keep them inheritance."

"My lord, you know so much!" Lilith said with joy, her eyes full of worship.

Victor had only a wry smile. This knowledge was all gossip he had chatted with people when he was in the capital, but what he said at the time was not very good. The York family was ridiculed as a hillbilly boar, Eskry’s family had a tendon, and Chebman’s family. Stingy. . . . . . In fact, these ridicules are sour.

"Lilia, after all, our strength is too weak. In the future, we need to learn to compromise. Only by quietly developing and gathering strength can we overeign our own destiny."

Victor said with a smile again: "Get up, I have heard the barking of a teppanyaki. Old Hamm should have caught a prey. It looks like there will be a good breakfast today."

"en." Lilia agreed, but held Victor tighter.

For a while, Victor and Lilia got dressed neatly and left the carriage.

Besides the carriage, more than a dozen guards were surrounding the campfire, watching Old Hamm roast a bobtail deer eagerly. Victor smelled a tempting aroma from a distance, and he couldn’t bear it. Live said: "Good morning!"

"My lord, good morning!"

"Mrs. Good morning!"

Meet Fief Lord and Mrs. Lilia After the carriage, bodyguards saluted Victor and Lilia one after another. Lilia stared at her blushing face. She always felt that these Uncle uncles were looking at her with teasing eyes.

"Old Hamm, your grilling skill is the best I have ever seen!"

Victor saw a plump short-tail deer skewered on the shelf. Golden, but there is no scorching place, I sincerely admire it.

"My lord, when grazing on the grassland, if you roast a lot, you will naturally become proficient."

Old Hamm took off a deer hind leg and handed it respectfully After winning Victor, he expertly cut off a piece of venison tenderloin and handed it to Lilia, which is Lilia's favorite part.

"Thank you, Ham uncle." Lilia happily took her breakfast.

"Why do you remember that you hunted early in the morning?"

Victor couldn't help asking when he saw another campfire also roasting a yellow sheep.

"It's not because the big guy is too good to eat, I took Shak to hunt early in the morning." A guard said with a smile.

"Yes, Renault is really edible. Like Nelson, he is a rice bucket, but this Shak is indeed a good hunter. These prey are killed by an arrow." There is another guard. said with a smile.

Renault's strength has won the recognition of bodyguards. Although his origin is unknown, everyone is convinced that Renault is a sturdy product and there is no need to beware.

Victor slightly smiled, Renault and Xia Ke should go to practice the secret form, hunting by the way to supplement their physical needs.

Shark, who drove Victor, was a monkey militia. He joined the camp as a mountain citizen and was brought by Victor to work as a driver.

This time, Victor did not bring Nelson with him. After all, the territory still needs someone to guard him.

In the end, Victor selected more than a dozen guards, plus Renault and Shak, and the old Hamm, and took two carriages and ten horses to the Black Fort.

Victor brought the old Hamm because his tits are very sensitive. Only by taking these hounds away from the territory can Jack have more space to carry out Victor's plan to drive away the mountain people.

Victor took a bite of the roasted short-tailed deer, full of fragrance, and he asked Hamm, "Old Hamm, do you prairie people live by grazing, do you have a Knight?"

"Yes, our Knights are all called Warriors, and then I joined War Bear Mercenaries, only to know that the Warriors are Knight." Old Hamm replied.

"Do you have a castle?" Victor suddenly became interested in the life of the prairie herders.

"My lord, there are no stones or trees on the grassland, so we don't have a castle." Old Hamm shook the head.

"Then how do you resist monsters and wild beasts, or are there no such things on the prairie?" Victor asked with a frown.

"My lord, there are a lot of monsters and wolves on the grassland. In order to resist these monsters, we raise teppers and goshawks and avoid them from a distance. If we can’t escape, there is only one It's war." Old Ham said hoarsely, obviously this was not a happy memory.

"In most cases, we can't beat those gnoll tribes. Fortunately, Radiance Church has established 12 cities on the grassland so that we can go in and take refuge."

"So that's how it is, no wonder you prairie people are all devout believers." Victor nodded said.

The physique of the jackals is not comparable to that of humans. Once their number reaches several hundred, Knight can't stop their attacks, and the herders are basically impossible to survive on the grassland without the protection of the city. However, this also shows that Radiance Church is indeed fighting against ferocious orcs for humans. It is very difficult to build a city on the grassland. The hardships and sacrifices can be imagined, but the church has done it.

Perhaps the church has wiped out the orcs on the prairie countless times, but the prairie is too big and the orcs are too fertile, and finally decided to build a city on the prairie to protect the herdsmen.

As for these nomads, they should be people who have lost their territory in the fighting for thousands of years. Under the leadership of the lord, they went to the grassland to survive. This kind of pioneering behavior has always been encouraged by the church, so the church spares no effort to help the nomads. Because of this, the prairie people are all devout followers of the church.

"How did you get annexed by the Sasan Empire later?"

This is where Victor puzzled. The prairie people struggle with the orcs. With the support of the church, how could it be defeated by Sasanian?

"We weren't defeated by Sasanian!" Old Hamm exclaimed with some excitement.

"According to the old people, it was Radiance Church who suddenly abandoned the 12 holy cities on the grassland three hundred years ago. In order to control those cities, our patriarch beat each other to bloodshed. Finally, it was near the city. There are more and more orcs, and our ancestors can only join the Sasan Empire and Dodo kingdoms."

"What did you say?!" Victor stood up quickly.

"We defeated ourselves in order to snatch the holy city." Seeing that our lord complexion greatly changed, the old Hamm explained eloquently. Anyway, he would not admit that the brave prairie man was Sasanian defeated.

"hehe, yes, you were not defeated by Sasanian." Victor smiled and sat down, he already understood.

What happened three hundred years ago? Rand Empire split into three kingdoms, and then Sasanian took control of the steppe herders.

What happened seven hundred years ago? The emperor Rand Empire built a city in the north to unify the north, but he was killed by the church.

Victor can already see the strangeness. The 12 cities on the grassland were built by the church with the support of Rand Empire. Only Rand Empire has such human and material resources.

At that time, Rand Empire wanted to build a city on the grassland and use it as a springboard to unify the north, but their plan fell through. First, the emperor was killed, and then the empire was divided, and then the church withdrew from the grassland, allowing Sasanian to take down 12 cities without blood.

So, Sasan Empire is the core of the Knight camp, and they want Sasan Empire to unify the human world!

Victor thought quietly, he thought of Duke Williams.

Obviously, Grand Duke Williams is a pro-church power in Gambis Kingdom, and Gambis Kingdom is one of the backbone forces against the Sasan Empire, or one of the iron triangles. If the church controls Gambis Kingdom, Then Dodo and Naville will be defeated by Sasanian.

So, what is the position of the York family? They are the Baita camp! Could it be that? The White Tower camp has split?

Victor carefully thought about the role played by the York family in the war a few years ago.

The York family did not support King Lane. Instead, they handed over the eastern provinces to Emperor Rand intact, and then they migrated to the westernmost part of the human world, Centaur Hills.

Just like Victor did, jumped out of the quagmire!

This position can attack, retreat and defend. After Gambis Kingdom lost the three eastern provinces, it became the rear of the kingdom. The York family and Rand Empire have formed a front and back flanking attack on Gambis Kingdom! If the two work together, the probability of Rand Empire's restoration will be greatly increased.

If things cannot be done, the York family is also a staunch supporter of Williams, and it has become the target of the church camp. No matter how you look at it, the York family is invincible.

This also shows that the White Tower camp is collapsing, and the war may be very close!

"I see!" Victor laughed and said with a smile.

"Victor, what do you understand?" Lilia looked at her man and asked ignorantly.

"We cannot become vassals of the York family!" Victor said firmly.

The vassals are cannon fodder!
