After trying a few times, Harrison realized that he couldn't hurt Suhlen at all. After understanding the difference between him and Suhlen, he simply admitted defeat.
"Since you have admitted defeat, then join my territory," Suhlen said as he put away his spear.
"Ding! Wandering hero Harrison requests to join your force. Do you accept?"
"Accept. Congratulations to the host for successfully recruiting a hero. One silver treasure chest is rewarded."

This is an excellent officer. He had to escape and become a mercenary because he was inadvertently involved in the political struggle of the upper nobles.
You need to pay him a reward every month. "
Officer? After seeing Harrison's attributes, Suhlen thought that he was very suitable to be the sheriff of the territory. Although his strength was not outstanding, as a hero, as long as he was willing to spend time, his strength would steadily improve.
Now that the territory and the Chamber of Commerce were trading, many mercenaries and guards came to Suhlen's town. Although the town became more prosperous, it also caused the security of the territory to deteriorate. He was going to appoint a sheriff to manage the town's security and punish those who violated the rules. Harrison's appearance just satisfied Suhlen's requirements.
"Welcome to the North Castle," Suhlen said with a smile.
"It's an honor to serve you," Harrison said with a knight's salute.
Suhlen opened his storage space and opened the Silver Treasure Chest. A burst of spiritual light dissipated, and two pieces of Tempered Steel appeared in his storage.
After that, Suhlen appointed Harrison as the security officer of Northtown Castle and formed a security team. The members of the security team were selected from the mercenaries and trained in the military camp for a period of time.
The mercenaries Suhlen had hired in the past had all settled down here. A few of them had even brought their lovers over to live here. Harrison recruited 30 security officers and formed a security team.
Of course, the strength of these vigilantes wasn't high. Even after undergoing military training, their strength was only at the level of Knight Squires. Only a few of them had reached the level of Novice Knight. Their professions changed from mercenaries to soldiers.
North Fortress Recruits, North Fortress Guards, North Fortress Elite Guards, North Fortress Elite Guards, North Fortress Iron Eagle Guards. Compared to a powerful race like the Barbarians, human soldiers were much weaker. The Elite Guards were only at the level of Knights.
Moreover, the cost of training a soldier wasn't small. In addition, they had to pay extra. The North Fortress Guards were paid two Kinnar, while the Elite Guards were paid five Kinnar. Similarly, Suhlen's Barbarian Guards also had to be paid.
When the territory was first developed, Suhlen promised that as long as the territory was developed successfully, he would give them the status of free people. Therefore, Suhlen didn't have to pay those Barbarians for a period of time. However, once the territory was on the right track, he had to pay them.
According to the system's standards, the Barbarian Warriors weren't cheap. Of course, compared to their strength, it was still worth it. After all, they couldn't be hired in the human world with hundreds of Kinnar.
The security team was set up and trained by Harrison. Suhlen marked out an area in the town as the official residence of the security department. At the same time, he also asked the blacksmith to make special weapons for them.
The security department's jurisdiction was within the territory, and the security team were all humans. They didn't have the strong bodies of the Barbarians. Most of the people they faced were thieves or mercenaries who violated the rules of the territory. They didn't need the heavy armor and giant axes of the Barbarians.
The security team was equipped with light armor and chain mail. Their weapons were also longswords. Although these weren't the best, they were enough to deal with the guards and mercenaries of the caravans.
[Security Department: A simple security official's residence. This is the headquarters to protect the safety of the territory and fight crime. Security + 5, Popular + 3, Law + 3]
With the establishment of the security department, the prison was also built. Unlike the security department, the prison had to be rebuilt. After all, a prison was different from a normal house. The good thing was that the prison didn't need to be too big. Those who committed the most heinous crimes would be sentenced to death. Only those who committed less serious crimes would be locked up there. Under Suhlen's Mud to Stone spell, the construction was completed very quickly.
[Prison: You should be glad that you're only locked up. You still have a chance to change. Reformation + 10, Life of Repentance + 10, Indestructible + 10, Psychological Deterrence + 10, Prosperity -1, Security + 5, Criminality -2, Law + 2]
After the prison was completed, it was recognized by the system. Suhlen specially brought a few humans in to inspect it. As soon as they entered the prison, they felt that the atmosphere was oppressive. It didn't feel good, as if there were invisible things staring at them all the time.
At the same time, it reminded them of the things that they regretted in the past. It definitely wouldn't feel good to stay in there for a long time. However, it was the best place to lock up criminals. This place was used to lock up criminals, not for them to go on vacation.
After touring the prison, the faces of the few humans behind them were a little pale. When they came out, they looked at the prison with fear in their eyes. Obviously, the prison had left a very shocking impression on them. These two guys would probably involuntarily think of the prison whenever they wanted to commit a crime in the future. Most likely, they would be honest.
With the expansion of the town, the number of residents and officials in the town would increase in the future. With that, all kinds of crimes would definitely increase, especially the corruption of officials. In Suhlen's plan, this place was to encourage business. When the time came, there would definitely be officials who couldn't help but take advantage of the situation. This was the real world, not a game. Those officials weren't NPCs and wouldn't make mistakes. Suhlen was considering whether to let the residents and officials experience the prison every once in a while.
Judging from the behavior of the few humans just now, this prison was still very intimidating to criminals. Of course, in addition to the prison, Suhlen would also make strict laws and supervision departments.
