"Who is the headmaster of the Moonkiller Academy?" Liszt asked after Hippolyta was sent away.
"It's Baron Rick Footprints."
"Rick, huh." Liszt recalled that Rick was his former classmate at the Knight Academy, who had followed him since he was in the Flower Town. The first time he went to the battlefield, he was seriously injured and almost died. Since then, his body was left with hidden dangers and he began to take the administrative route. "Tell Rick to educate Hippolyta well. He is someone I pay close attention to."
"Understood, Your Highness!"
With the continuous absorption of the Moonkiller Clan, the territory's Moonkiller serfs had already exceeded 200,000 people, and the ancient wizards alone had reached 4,000 people. As for the Knight, wizards, and commoners who migrated from the Flame Territory, there were less than 20,000 people in total.
Such a disparity made the Flame Territory's rule very precarious.
Although he and A Qi were enough to suppress all disturbances in terms of high-end combat strength, but they could not suppress everywhere and still had to rely on the Flame Territory to maintain stability. But with the continuous increase of the Moonkiller Clan, the Flame Territory's control over the Moonkiller Clan was bound to decline.
The Moonkiller Clan was distributed on Flame Island. There were certainly millions of them, and even tens of millions was not impossible. After all, they were spread out in most of the forest corners of Flame Island.
As for the number of Flame Territory's Flame Territory, even if magic gates were opened and immigrants were allowed, it would still be difficult to reach hundreds of thousands in a short time.
With the large number of Moonkiller Clan and the small number of Flame Territory, Liszt felt that he had to adopt a more stable method to control Flame Island. His plan was to assimilate the Moonkiller Clan, integrate them into the Knight system, and make them loyal to him. At the same time, he had to divide and disperse the Moonkiller Clan.
Standing on the castle's balcony, Liszt looked at the sun that was still bright but did not provide much heat.
His mind was clear. It is not realistic for everyone to be equal. The difference in levels under the Knight system must be maintained. However, the conflict between the different levels can be resolved through the channels of ascension … Nobles, Flamefolk, and Moonkiller are three levels, but each level must have a channel to become a nobleman …
His gaze shifted towards the faraway plantation, where a Knight squad was patrolling. Moonkiller serfs were busy plowing the fields under the leadership of the Infernal Giants, preparing for the upcoming spring sowing. "Especially young Moonkillers like Hippolyta, they could be groomed to become Knight class."
As for the moon killers, their generation would be cut off. After banning the killing of sprite worms to produce magic power dust, the moon killers would not be any better than the flame people in terms of magic talent.
Of course.
The cultivation of Moonkiller Knight still depended on talent. Moonkiller Knights without talent would continue to be serfs.
"Young people are the true Knight candidates of the Burning Legion in the future. They will accept the new concept that I bring and not continue to stick to the rigid Knight system."
"Angchi, Angchi, Kronchi!"
The great potato sprite Kutch's shout interrupted Liszt's thoughts and brought him back to reality. He saw Kutch flying towards him with a sprite of the same height.
"Liszt!" Kutch came to the balcony and laughed foolishly.
Kutcher, who was captured by the Saint Tribe, lived a miserable life. Only when he was rescued by Liszt did he become completely happy. Recently, Liszt had given it a mission to help the newly arrived sprites familiarize themselves with their new life in Firefire Castle.
One after another, sprite worms were rescued from the various Moonkiller tribes.
But of the greater sprites and lesser sprites, there were only one big sprite and three small sprites brought by Hippolyta. Above the head of the greater sprite was a small sapling with large leaves. A bunch of bananas hung from the sapling. It was a greater banana sprite. Bananas were a type of fruit that was most loved by the Spatula Elephant.
It could be said that the arrival of the greater banana sprite provided a stable source of food for the Spatula Elephant.
"Bobby, say … Liszt." He teased the greater sprite, whose eyes were full of curiosity. Because it had just formed a contract, the greater sprite was still a bit shy with strangers and could not speak in Serpentine.
Its name was Bobby.
This was the name given by Hippolyta, and Liszt felt that it was good, so he did not change it.
"Hibo, Bobby." Bobby muttered the language it knew, and then, driven by the contract, tried to say, "Li, Xi, t?"
"It's Liszt." Kutch corrected him.
"Li, Xi, t."
"Liszt."
"Li, Xi, t."
"Bobby is so stupid." Kutch sneered and continued to correct him, "Liszt, Liszt Flame, Kutch's Liszt!"
Bobby seemed to understand the other party's mockery and shouted angrily: "Hibo, Bobby."
"Well, go play on the side." Liszt did not care about Bobby's learning progress. After the sprites' worm stalks were planted, they could do whatever they wanted. There was no point in teaching them.
In addition to the banana sprite Bobby, there were three other sprites, namely the king flower sprite, the silver fan grass sprite, and the big pompom sprite.
Among them, the king flower was a parasitic plant, generally parasitizing the roots, stems, and branches of plants, somewhat similar to mushrooms. However, it was a plant with flowers the size of a washbasin and was a magic ingredient. In other words, the king flower sprite was a magic ingredient sprite and was very valuable.
The only drawback was that it was not easy to cultivate, as it needed to be parasitized on a large tree.
The silver fan grass was an ornamental plant. When its fruit matured, it looked like a silver coin or a small silver fan. The big pompom sprite was also an ornamental plant, closely related to the scallions, but not belonging to the same genus. The middle of the plant grew a cylindrical, half a person tall stalk, and the tip of the stalk was a purple scallion, which was very interesting.
The value of these two sprites had yet to be discovered.
In addition, there were two sprite worms. So far, more than forty sprite worms had been rescued from the Moonman tribe, and most of them had not been found to have any value.
… …
Coral Island, Flower Town, in a tavern near the dock.
Two guests dressed as merchants sat in the corner of the tavern, whispering.
"Did you find out?"
"Did you bring the gold coins?"
"Don't worry, I won't be short of your money, take it!"
"Hey, with the gold coins, everything is easy … Investigate clearly, the Knight returns to Black Horse Island two to three times a week. The time is not fixed, but the basic pattern is unchanged. The other Magician hasn't appeared yet. He's been staying on Flame Island. "
"What is the mount, and what does it do every time?"
"The mount has not been found, but each time it is to transport a batch of goods, sometimes food, which is not easy to find out. And each time, it will rest in Thorn Castle for one night and leave the next day. I dare not ask more, the specific method of transportation is not clear. "
"Continue to inquire, I want to know more about the whereabouts of the Knight!"
"Hey, Black Horse Island's household registration management is very strict. I risked being hanged to help you find out information. If you want me to continue to inquire, you have to pay me more!"
"As long as the information is valuable, remember, money is not a problem!"
A moment later, the two merchants said goodbye, purchased a batch of goods, and left Flower Town. Only one set out for Black Horse Island, and the other for Coral City.
The merchant who set out for Coral City, after arriving at the dock, immediately wrote a letter and handed it to another merchant to carry all the way to the Eagle Kingdom. Eventually, the letter arrived in a magnificent castle. On the hillside not far from the castle, a bronze dragon was sleeping.
The owner of the castle opened the letter, read the contents blankly, and then burned the letter.
Sitting in a chair in silence, he whispered softly, "Liszt Flame … the humiliation you have inflicted on me, I will retaliate tenfold, just wait …"
