"Wow!"
The moment he stepped into the Thorn Castle, there was a familiar cry in his heart. Then he saw the thorn sprite, Ella, flying down the stairwell and directly into the arms of Liszt.
This bad-tempered little elf was probably the most emotional of all the little elves.
"Has Ella been well-behaved these days?" Liszt caught the palm-sized Ella and asked Butler Carter with a smile. Since the birth of the thorn medicine, Ella's value has jumped to the same level as the giant algae sprite. Coupled with his own preference, Ella has a special status in the castle.
"Master, Ella has been quite well-behaved these days. Except for the daily scolding of the sprites in other rooms, she has not been too grumpy. But because she can't enter other rooms, she is probably a little stuffy, so she often runs to the thorn plantation and randomly sows thorn seedlings. "
Butler Carter replied seriously.
But under the calm expression, his body trembled slightly with excitement. As long as he thought that his master turned out to be a great Dragon Knight, the loyal old butler could not help but be excited. When arranging to go to the countryside town, he never thought that he could become the butler of the Dragon Knight.
Not only him, but the first group of servants, such as Mrs. Morrison and Mrs. Abby, were all too excited to sleep when the news came the day before yesterday.
Even after two days, they still could not calm their excitement.
"That's good." Liszt rubbed Ella's head. "The scattered thorn seedlings should be carefully screened and eradicated to prevent magic potions or mutated new types of thorns."
"The insect protection team cooperates with the magicians of the Wizard Tower. Every thorn seedling has been carefully investigated to ensure that no new types of thorns are missed."
"Yes." Liszt nodded.
The magicians of the Wizard Tower, under his control, have begun to turn to the scope of "basic magic" research. The relationship between sprites and plants is the key category of basic magic mechanics. Scientific management, scientific farming, and he believed that sooner or later, the secret of elven breeding could be found.
"Wow!" Ella cried to show that she was helping with the farming, not playing.
"I see, little one." Liszt smiled. He always felt that Ella's emotions were more abundant and vivid than other elves. He didn't know if it was because of the relationship between the feelings, or because of its more distinct personality, in short, Ella was the one that was different.
"Go play by yourself in the Worm Room first, I'll play with you later," Liszt said as he handed it to the manservant Thomas and put it back in the Worm Room upstairs.
After a while, the important Knight and officials of the territory all gathered in the conference room.
The servants poured the tea.
Liszt cut to the chase and said, "As you can see, I am a Dragon Knight, and Achilles is a Magic Shooter. Both of us stand at the pinnacle of power in this world. For the time being, my title is the Marquis of the Flame, and my fief is the Flame Territory. Legally, I have jurisdiction over Coral Island, Black Horse Island, and Iron Hoof Island and Iron Hoof City. "
Everyone looked at the Lord and waited for him to continue.
Liszt paused and continued, "But all this is just a transition. It won't be long before I find a new archipelago in the sea and build a new country. And everyone, work hard and do your tasks. In the new country, you will all be founding heroes. "
"We are willing to drive for Your Highness!" The crowd shouted. Even Kris, who did not swear allegiance, shouted with the crowd.
This unprecedented Dragon Slaying War completely established the foundation of Liszt. No kingdom on the continent would be able to launch another Dragon Slaying War.
Therefore, the founding of the country was irresistible.
No one could refuse the honor of personally participating in the building of a new country.
Kris could not refuse the opportunity to become a court magician, Yevich could not refuse the possibility of becoming a founding noble … Gort and Markus had served as Liszt's tutors, and they could not refuse the glorious future.
He was satisfied with the resounding response of his subordinates.
Liszt said indifferently, "The future is glorious. The glory of the Knight will always be with me, and the glory will be sprinkled on everyone here … In the future, we will all fight for the establishment of the new country, but the most urgent task is to maintain the stability of the territory and slowly take over the Flame Territory."
Coral Island had been nominally enfeoffed to Liszt, but it had not passed the five-year harvest period and would not be easily transferred for the time being.
Iron Hoof City of Iron Hoof Island, however, could be taken over immediately.
It was a large city with a population of more than 150,000 people. It was the second largest city in the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, second only to the Blue Dragon City under the jurisdiction of the court. However, the current population of Iron Hoof City was only about 100,000. With the destruction of the Bull Family, the aristocracy and freedmen were largely lost, and only serfs were still bound to the land.
The loss of a large number of craftsmen would inevitably lead to the decline of Iron Hoof City. In particular, the output of the soil around Iron Hoof City would be greatly reduced after the elves were taken back by the Sapphire Family.
However, with Iron Hoof City's geographical location in the center of Iron Hoof Island, it still had great trade potential.
Of course.
Even though Iron Hoof City was the second largest city in the Sapphire Family, Liszt still did not like it. The city's hygiene was not good, and it was very difficult to improve it. He also had no intention of improving it. In a few years, the city would sooner or later be returned to the Sapphire Grand Duke.
He only intended to use Iron Hoof City as a transit point for trade in his territory and renovate the Bull Castle, which was second only to the Blue Sky Palace.
The huge and magnificent Bull Castle barely fit his status.
"In addition to taking over the territory, the Knight who will come to seek refuge also needs to be carefully selected. Only those who have both ability and integrity will have a place in the Flame Territory. The Knight who will seek refuge with the Orders of Chivalry will be led by Markus, the Knight who will seek refuge with the officials will be led by Gort, and the Knight who has been screened will be led by Paris and Charles. "
The four of them got up one after another to express their understanding.
"Then there are the magicians on a pilgrimage. It can be foreseen that in the future, there will be many magicians staying in the Flame Territory. I intend to establish a Guild of Magic that will govern the magicians under their real names. Achilles will be the president and Kris will be the vice president. Every magician must be included in the supervision. "
Kris nodded solemnly: "Please rest assured, Your Highness!"
"Finally, there is the nautical exploration to find new islands. Yevich, I will directly purchase a few fast court sailboats from the Sapphire Family. You and Captain Kosto will work together to train more sailors as soon as possible. After the New Year, we will set off to explore the south of the Cerulean Sea and search for possible islands. "
Yevich immediately replied: "Yes, Your Highness!"
His voice was sonorous and powerful, as if it contained endless power. The fallen swordsman who once had nothing to lose could no longer be seen.
Becoming a follower of a Dragon Knight was the most magnificent turnaround he had ever had in his life.
