"Your Majesty, is this Jade City? Are these the Moonkillers? I thought Flame Island was still a barren land. Even if it was developed for more than two years, the environment would not change. I didn't expect Jade City to be so huge." Yevich Waterpeanut sighed.
Although he had been captured and followed Liszt for a long time, he did not have much experience in "big battles". He did not know Liszt's strong organizational ability as the successor of socialism.
It would take several years for any lord to open up a piece of farmland. But Yevich insisted on doing it quickly and paid the serfs enough to grind stones into sand. Moreover, it was just burning the forest, opening up farmland, building wooden houses, and the ancient sorcerer presiding over the big project.
Jade City's current scale was far larger than a large city with a population of 100,000. It was just not as luxurious as a large city, but in terms of civilization and hygiene, it was far better than any large city.
Toilets, sewers.
These were the standard buildings that Liszt emphasized.
A city could have no magnificent buildings, and it could have no small wooden houses, but it must not have no toilets, and no sewage could flow.
"Now that the Majestic Jade Teleportation Circle has been completed, and the construction of Majestic Yellow City has begun. The Snow Wind Duchy is in constant civil strife. The battle between the eldest prince and the second prince is white-hot. Some Knight must have been defeated because of this. You need to contact more people and try to recruit them. "
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. I have been planning this, but I only contacted some small nobles. Although the Duke of Snow Wind Duchy is old and muddle-headed, he will still be vigilant against outsiders interfering in the battle between his sons. If I go too far, it will easily attract the old Duke's attention. "
"Don't be afraid. The Fire Kingdom is behind you. If the old Duke dares to make a move, tell him that if something happens to you, I will send a Dragon Knight to intervene in the internal affairs of the Snow Wind Duchy."
"Still in the name of the Eagle Kingdom?"
Liszt thought for a moment. "You can play the role of a broker between the Eagle Kingdom and the Fire Kingdom, engaging in serf trade, or some other trade. At the critical moment, you can show your cards. In short, if the Snow Wind Duchy cooperates with us, both sides will benefit. If not, they will be hurt. "
Even the Noble Frost Empire wanted to attack the Fire Kingdom, so Liszt did not care about the hostility of a small duchy.
His strength was enough for him to run amuck in the northeast corner of the legendary continent.
…
"Quest completed. Reward: a Great Sprite."
After the construction of the Xiong Yu Teleportation Array was completed, the smoke mission was naturally completed. The reward was a Big Sprite, but it was still unknown where this Big Sprite came from.
Liszt did not pay too much attention to it. His attention was now focused on the new smoke mission.
"Quest: The Graysteel Duke has returned to the Graysteel Duchy. Although he has lost the Graysteel Dragon, he is still in control of the country. However, his emissary group has already secretly headed towards the Fire Kingdom, bringing along another request for your help. This is also an opportunity. Please help the Graysteel Duke. Reward: aluminum dragon cable. "
"Aluminum dragon clue!"
He instantly understood why the Grayiron Duke had used the orichalcum thread in exchange for his twenty years of protection. It turned out that the Gray Iron Duke, Piero Gray Iron, still had clues about the aluminum dragon. He must be secretly attacking Aluminum Dragon and preparing to rely on it to stabilize the country.
"But what does he mean by asking me for help? Does he want me to help him conquer the Aluminum Dragon? Isn't he afraid that I'll just snatch the aluminum dragon? Bah, isn't he afraid that I'll snatch it? When it comes to riding a dragon, friendship doesn't matter. It belongs to whoever can snatch it! "
In any case, Liszt had already decided on the Aluminum Dragon.
He had never heard of an aluminum dragon in the northeast corner of the Legendary continent. Aluminum was an ordinary metal. However, just like titanium was known as "Little Mithril", aluminum was known as "Little Crystal". It was a material used to make high-end magic equipment. It had great effects on conducting magic power and solidifying magic runes.
The aluminum dragon was not as valuable as the magical metal dragon, but it was still a high-value dragon among the metal dragons. If the Gray Iron Duke obtained the aluminum dragon, he would definitely become the wisest monarch of the Graysteel Duchy.
"It's a pity that you came to me for help …"
Liszt and the others did not panic. Almost two hours after the mission was announced, he received a message from the Soul Fortress.
A person claiming to be the emissary of the Gray Iron Duchy wanted to see him.
"Let him come. I will meet him at the Reed City Administrative Office." Liszt wanted to know what the Gray Iron Duke needed his help with.
Soon, Liszt met the emissary of the Gray Iron Duke at the Reed City Administrative Office.
The emissary was a handsome young Sword Saint with yellow hair and green eyes. "The emissary of the Gray Iron Duke, Lawrence Luluo, greets the Flame King."
"Dispense with the formalities. Did the Gray Iron Duke send you here secretly for something important?" Liszt always liked to be straightforward. He did not like hypocritical politeness.
Lawrence took a while to adapt to Liszt's style, and then explained why the Duke of Grayiron had sent him. "A knight trained by His Highness the Duke of Grayiron was kidnapped by the Kingdom of Eagle … He may be the illegitimate son of His Highness the Duke of Grayiron, so His Highness hopes to ask Your Majesty for help."
"Illegitimate son … Does an illegitimate son need my help?" Liszt said in a mocking tone. "What price does the Gray Iron Duke think can get me to help?"
"The Gray Iron Duke is willing to offer five Big Elves."
"Five Big Elves, but you want me to take the risk of entering the Eagle Kingdom?"
"That's not the case, Your Majesty. The one who kidnapped the Knight was not the Eagle Royal Family, but a feudal marquis. However, this feudal marquis is an inheritor of an ancient warrior and is very powerful. He knows that the Gray Iron Duchy does not have the protection of a dragon, so he does not care about the Gray Iron Duchy. "
It was obvious that Lawrence was not telling the truth. He thought that Liszt was too naive.
An illegitimate son, no matter how outstanding, would not be worth the price of five Big Elves to save him. If he really had five Big Elves, he could just exchange them with the feudal marquis.
Moreover.
Even if the Gray Iron Duchy had a grudge with the Eagle Royal Family, the Eagle Royal Family might not care about the dignity of a vassal state and ignore it. Moreover, the Gray Iron Duchy could ask for help from other duchies. He believed that those duchies would be very willing to earn five Big Elves.
It was impossible for them to come here directly and ask Liszt to rescue the illegitimate son.
Moreover, the smoke mission had already given clues about the aluminum dragon. Liszt would not believe this excuse no matter how stupid he was. "Lawrence, don't say this useless nonsense. What does Duke Piero mean? Tell me in detail. Otherwise, go back quickly. I won't keep you for dinner. "
