"Why are you a demigod?"
"This is the seven-color divine crystal!"
"Except in this era, it is forbidden to become a god!"
Fang Yuan vaguely guessed something in his mind.
"So!"
"What should I choose?"
"A legion with three hundred dark gold strength is still a demigod hero."
After hesitating for a moment.
Fang Yuan quickly made a choice.
"Option 2, upgrade Lilith's level to demigod!"
The reason for this choice is simple.
In this era.
Even the dark gold army will be suppressed by the rules.
It is difficult to generalize across all countries.
But Lilith's strength has advanced to the level of Demigod Queen.
Its speed of developing alchemical potions will definitely be accelerated.
As long as a potion that can quickly condense magic crystals can be developed.
Then your plan will succeed.
Next we just need to take down the Alpha Kingdom.
Just produce magic crystal warriors in batches and kill other countries.
"Ding, your hero Lilith's strength has been upgraded to the demigod level!"
The beep goes off.
The seven-color divine crystal in front of him turned into powder.
The power within it was absorbed by Lilith.
"Your Excellency!"
"My strength is restored again."
"Demi-god level!"
Lilith made a casual move.
The flame phoenix appeared next to him.
Then he said with some regret.
"It's a pity that large-scale spells such as Forbidden Curse cannot be used."
"Also, due to the suppression of the times, my magic power has reached the semi-god level."
"But the destructive power of magic is not."
"And releasing magic requires more magic power."
Fang Yuan didn't care about what Lilith said.
"It doesn't matter."
"There is no need for you to go to the battlefield at the moment."
"I need the potion you developed."
"How is the progress now?"
"It's not ideal, because the limitations of the times and the rules are different."
"Research on rapidly condensing magic crystals is relatively slow."
"The current research results show that it will take at least five years to condense the magic crystal."
If this word spreads, I am afraid that all alchemists will go crazy about it.
It can be condensed in five years, which can already be used to mass-produce magic crystal warriors.
But obviously, Fang Yuan felt that the time was still too long.
"We need to shorten some time."
"Lilith, we are taking a different approach."
"In this case, you can be a little more extreme when doing research."
"Don't care about the lifespan, physical disability and mortality of those magic crystal warriors."
"Even if one out of ten succeeds, it is enough."
After hearing Fang Yuan's words, Lilith nodded thoughtfully.
"Your Excellency."
"I know what to do."
After Lilith left.
Qingfeng brought another news.
"Your Excellency."
"Doug said that nomadic orcs should be trained on the grassland."
"It won't be long before we can pull out a hundred thousand cavalry."
Fang Yuan's heart moved.
The orc kingdom now has no gods.
The nobles among them can also be used by me.
If Doug can take down the orc kingdom.
By then controlling the populations of the two countries, you will have more mobilizable power.
"Qingfeng, go and tell Brainy not to return for the time being."
"Stay in the Orc Kingdom, assist Doug, and try to control the Orc Kingdom."
"Yes!"
Christian asked then.
"Your Excellency."
"Braney is not returning."
"Then who should we send to the capital of Alpha Kingdom?"
In the grassland, Blainey proved his strength.
Originally heading south to King Alpha's capital, Brainy was still the vanguard.
But now!
Fang Yuan looked at the awakened hero.
Qingfeng is an assassin.
But not good at building an organization.
I need to awaken a new hero.
Open the lord system.
Check out today's awakening opportunities.
"Option 1: 300 gun and shield infantry."
"Choice 2: Hero Heidi!"
"It's her!"
Among the heroes under Fang Yuan, there are several who have hardly used them.
Heidi is one of them.
This is because he has mastered the camp skill of Devil's Eye.
This makes him the best person to patrol and protect the territory.
In fact, Heidi is better at commanding heavy armored infantry.
It turns out that the champion heavy armor produced by Plantagenet Castle is his directly subordinate unit.
And beyond that.
Heidi herself is also a demon hero.
He and Brainy were once the right-hand men of Earl Plantagenet.
And compared to Blainey, Heidi is the chief officer in charge of intelligence.
He follows Earl Plantagenet, protecting him while also processing intelligence.
Judging from its past.
Heidi is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
Fang Yuan quickly made a choice.
"Ding, Heidi was successfully resuscitated."
A female swordsman wearing heavy armor and carrying a heavy sword appeared in front of Fang Yuan.
"Your Excellency!"
Heidi bowed slightly.
He felt a binding force all over his body.
"My strength has dropped to the intermediate level?"
Heidi tried to awaken the demonic power, but found that she now only had the power of pure flesh.
"We are in a secret realm, and this is the suppression of rules."
After Fang Yuan explained, Heidi quickly became familiar with the current power.
"Your Excellency, what can I do for you?"
Fang Yuan told about his plan.
"So I need a hero to go to Alpha's capital."
"Build an intelligence network."
"At the same time, prepare in advance for my arrival in the future."
Heidi nodded.
"Without a doubt, I am the best candidate."
"I once went deep into the Fengxi Grassland and established an intelligence network on my own."
"Collected a lot of intelligence for His Excellency the Earl's Northern Expedition."
Fang Yuan also took a fancy to this.
"What do you need?"
Heidi shook her head.
"No need."
"My current identity is the best cover."
Even so, Fang Yuan still gave him enough golden tickets.
"If you encounter trouble in the royal capital."
"You can go to the Royal Alchemist Crow."
"He will help you."
"Yes, your lord."
After Heidi left.
Fang Yuan began to focus on border matters.
After the war is won.
The next step is to divide the territory.
Swampland and Lehman City are their own forces.
As for other places.
Fang Yuan doesn't want it.
But someone from the Rainbow Land came to win over.
Fang Yuan refused.
And the news came back from Crowe.
Rainbow Duke intends to compete for the crown prince.
As the lord of the border, I should support him.
For this reason, he also gave away the credit for killing Duke Carlo.
"Christian."
"The border war has been decided."
"Next we just have to wait for the opportunity."
"I think since the border is interested in getting involved."
"How about we try our old trick again."
“With the help of the border as a whole, we can control the battle for Alpha’s storage position from now on.”
"This way it won't be exposed immediately."
"It can also give us some insurance."
"If anything happens, just let the border nobles take the blame."
Heard Fang Yuan’s plan.
Christian said after thinking for a moment.
"Your Excellency, what are you going to do?"
Fang Yuan looked at the map in front of him.
"We are now counts."
"Qualified to become a chess player."
"I think it's better to get involved with yourself."
"Join the service of the Duke of Tire."
"Plan together to seize the reserve."
"The specific plan will be arranged slowly after we have integrated into the other party."
Christian didn't object.
"Your Excellency, then we can try to contact Sam."
"You are all counts now."
"You rely on the nobles around you, plus the Red River Valley behind Sam."
"The two combined will be enough to be on an equal footing with Tire City and Rainbow Land on the border."
Fang Yuan smiled slightly.
"I thought so too."
"Assis."
Fang Yuan shouted.
"Your Excellency."
"You go and deliver a message to Earl Sam."
"Just say that I invited him to come to the Chateau Moulin Rouge as a guest."
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
Then Fang Yuan looked at his own troops.
"The orcs will not go south anytime soon."
"We don't need to maintain so many troops here."
"Except for those alien forces."
"The human legion can go south first."
"After Guderian's return."
"You can disguise yourself as a caravan and head south first."
Christian asked with some confusion after hearing this.
"What is the purpose?"
"Of course at critical moments, we have the power to overturn the table."
Christian hesitated.
"If force is used, I'm afraid the entire Alpha Kingdom will fall into civil strife."
Fang Yuan naturally knows.
In this kind of battle for the reserve, every force is not simple.
If you want to rely on killing to get to the top, it will inevitably lead to internal divisions.
But Guderian was different.
His royal power plundering skills are designed for killing.
"It doesn't matter, assassination is different from overt attack."
"When Guderian goes south, he can find important targets and use royal power to plunder them to complete their replacements."
“In this way, we can quickly and easily open up the situation at the top.”
When Christian heard that Fang Yuan was not reckless, he relaxed a lot.
"By the way, let Aria hide her troops."
"Don't scare Sam."
"Yes!"
Red River Valley.
Within the territory of the Sam family.
After the war against the orcs.
The nobles in the Red River Valley suffered heavy losses again.
Many nobles died.
New territories were vacated.
And the Sam family, a later outsider.
But he made a fortune because of this war.
At the critical moment, cooperate with the Baron of Moulin Rouge to attack the orcs.
Successfully defeated the orc infantry and delayed the Carlo family's retreat.
Then go around to intercept the fleeing orcs.
There were more than 3,000 prisoners alone.
Become the family with the most prisoners among all the nobles.
Discussing merit after the war.
There was no title promotion for the Sam family.
But their chassis in the Red River Valley has been expanded to the equivalent of a Marquis level.
It became the largest noble family in the entire Red River Valley.
The terrain of the territory is difficult.
Being locked up makes you independent.
Although get excellent terrain.
But Sam also fell into sorrow.
Because this is a conspiracy against their family.
In this kind of terrain, future generations will really have a few fools to close the door and become independent.
Then his family will be attacked in an instant.
The territory they fought so hard to win will also be divided up again.
You know, we swallowed too much territory this time.
I don’t know how many nobles are jealous.
In this regard, Sam urgently needs to be bound to the border nobles.
But he himself rose from a baron.
Even in border areas, they belong to nobles with little foundation.
Although the previous war won the favor of other nobles in the Red River Valley.
But when it comes to interests.
But no one takes these seriously.
The current Sam family has territory but no status.
If you want to get the corresponding status, you need a community of interests.
But because the foundation is too shallow, it cannot get into the core of others.
Sam was troubled by this.
"Father, we just went to the Sandro family to propose marriage, but we were rejected."
"He said we carry the rotten smell of the swamp."
Hear this.
Sam's eyes burned with anger.
But it quickly disappeared.
"Hmph!"
"Shandru family, I helped him get back the family territory this time."
"And you laughed at me."
"They are indeed a group of barbarians."
"Forget it, don't force it if you don't want to."
"Where is your third brother? He went to the Heim family for your little sister's marriage."
"Any news?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there were rapid footsteps outside.
"Father!"
His third son rushed in.
His face was bruised and bruised.
"What's going on?"
Sam had actually guessed it in his mind.
But he still asked with a serious face.
"I request to bring three hundred cavalry to destroy the Heim family."
"Nonsense!"
"What's going on?"
"They bullied me."
"I brought gifts to propose marriage, and the Heim family agreed before."
“Then he turned around and called me a country bumpkin from the swamp.”
"A bastard born from a frogman, and he wants to marry into the Heim family."
"They also looted our gifts."
"Everything I brought this time was robbed."
This time, Sam's anger could no longer be suppressed.
"These bastards!"
Sam snapped.
The teeth will be broken.
It doesn't matter if you lose some money.
Now the Sam family is extremely rich.
But insulting his daughter.
This is absolutely not okay!
The eldest son beside him also shouted.
"Father, for the sake of my little sister's reputation."
"The Heim family must be punished."
Sam wants it too, but the Heim family!
He took a deep breath.
He is the Marquis of the Red River Valley.
At the same time, he is also the in-laws of Governor Tyre.
Make a move on him.
Wouldn't that give Governor Tyre an excuse to send troops against him?
These people!
It’s forcing yourself to make mistakes.
Then carve up your own territory.
Despicable nobles.
But at the same time, he was more helpless.
A nobleman with no background occupies such a large and good territory.
He has long been the prey in the eyes of other nobles.
They will use all kinds of dirty tricks to force you to make mistakes.
Then find an excuse to kill you.
"No, it can't be done."
"We must not send troops."
And his second son asked.
"But father, have we always been bullied?"
"If there is no way to counterattack, sooner or later we will be forced to counterattack!"
Sam knew it too.
But there was nothing he could do.
Now I can only drag it slowly.
And suddenly.
Sam thought about Efron.
Just like him, will Efron be the same as him.
How will he solve it.
Or, the alchemist behind him will help solve it.
If only I could get the alchemist's support.
Just as Sam was thinking about it.
A waiter ran in quickly.
"Report, Sir Sam."
"Count Efron has sent an envoy to invite you to a banquet at the castle at Moulin Rouge."
Hear the news.
Sam's mind was racing.
Thinking about the purpose of this banquet.
But he said quickly.
"Prepare fifty thousand gold coins immediately."
"No!"
"Efron doesn't like gold coins."
"Prepare three boxes of magic crystals as gifts and leave for Moulin Rouge Castle immediately."
Just after Earl Sam left the Red River Valley.
now.
The governor's palace in Tire.
"Oh, Sam went to Efron's?"
Governor Tyr's face turned ugly.
These two nobles came out of the swamp.
Relying on his military exploits, he obtained a large amount of wealth and territory.
After solving the orc problem.
Governor Tire was preparing to slowly erode these two noble families.
Use their wealth to make up for their losses in the war.
Sam, who is currently cleaning up the Red River Valley, has not taken action against the Moulin Rouge for the time being.
Unexpectedly, they actually contacted each other in advance.
"Your Excellency the Governor."
"Both are counts."
"If we get in touch."
"I'm afraid its power is no weaker than ours."
"Efron, in particular, gained the trust of the surrounding nobles during the war."
"They volunteered to become Efron's vassals."
"Sam doesn't have this advantage though."
"But he has money!"
"When they combine, they want money and people."
"It's a big threat to you."
Governor Tyr hesitated for a moment and then asked.
"Then what do you think I should do?"
"It's better to intercept him halfway!"
"Get rid of them!!!"
Governor Tyre was greatly moved.
But Efron’s record quickly came to mind.
He shook his head again.
"No!"
"Efron's identity is mysterious."
"There are strong knights around me."
"Our main force suffered heavy losses."
"Don't do anything yet."
"Let's first look at the purpose of their union."
"As long as it doesn't threaten our plans!"
"Then forget it."
"If you oppose the border nobles' participation in the battle for the crown prince."
"Then tell Rainbow Duke and let's do it together."
"Yes!"
Castle of Moulin Rouge.
"What!"
"Efron!"
"You are playing so hard!!!"
At the banquet.
Earl Sam was shocked by Fang Yuan's plan.
The look he looked at Fang Yuan was full of disbelief.
Fang Yuan was leaning back on the seat at this time.
He tapped his fingers on the armrest, stared at Sam for a moment and then said slowly.
"So!"
"The noble Lord Sam."
"Can you tell me your choice now?"
Faced with Fang Yuan's aggressive inquiry.
Sam pursed his lips for a moment.
"Do I have a choice?"
Looking at the warriors outside the banquet, he sighed.
Hearing this answer, Fang Yuan smiled lightly.
"Come here!"
"Go to Tire and tell the Governor."
"Just say that Earl Sam and I invite him and Duke Rainbow to a banquet." "Yes!" (End of Chapter)
