I really just want to be a big lord

Chapter 153 On the Road

Qian Cang Dawn didn't even ask how many members of the incoming "Holy Law Church" were there and how strong they were, so he could directly come to a conclusion—they were either really ill-informed, or they were so stupid that they came The westward movement that attacked Keos.

But given the impact and scope of the previous war between Kaios and Earl Gale, the people around here should not be ignorant.

After all, they are only half a day away from Yulang City, and strictly speaking, they have just left the jurisdiction of Yulang City.

People here should have heard about what happened in Yulang City. They must know the strength of Kaios' "Magic Attendant Squad", and they should also know that Kaios already has four top-level contracted servants.

Therefore, from Qing Cang Dawn's point of view, they still chose to attack Kaios' team, they could only be stupid.

It was so stupid to think that sneak attack at night and cooperation from inside and outside could make up for the disadvantage in strength in one fell swoop, and it could make the leaders and contracted servants of Keos collapse.

After hearing that the remnants of the "Sacred Law Church" who came to attack were led by a high-level great magician, three mid-level auras, and seven rudimentary auras, Qing Cang's expression became even weirder. .

These people are really out of their minds!

A lineup that even the Marquis of Steel Heart didn't dare to fight, are they going to fight desperately?
Or... does Keos have something "something" they have to come here?
"Have you caught anyone alive?" Qian Cang Lixiao asked.

Keos said: "Yes, but I sent it back to their lord."

Qian Cang Lixiao nodded, she could understand this operation, she did not interrogate herself, nor did she ask people from Shengyou Palace to interrogate, but sent it back directly, it was just selling the lord for favor.

Indeed, for Keos, it didn't make much sense to go after the lord to whom the "Sacred Law Church" attacker belonged. From the perspective of maximizing profits, selling favors was the best.

"Could it be that you have some treasure from the 'Holy Law Church'? Otherwise, how dare they come here with their small number of people?" Qing Cang Lixiao half-jokingly asked.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, no matter what the reason is, no matter who comes, just destroy it." Kaios said casually.

"Baron Keos is really brave."

"You're trying to say 'how arrogant'."

"I do not have!"

"It's okay, Miss Qiancang, as my westward observer, if you find any problems and have any suggestions, you should boldly raise them, and you can help me improve!"

"What observer? Why did I become an observer... who made it..."

"I sealed it."

"Then will you pay me wages?"

"All board and lodging are included, what salary do you want!"

After the two of them habitually had a meeting and joked, Kaios described to Qing Cang Dawn in detail the process and details of their discovery of the enemy attack, their response to the fight, and the complete suppression of the night attack and riot.

The whole process was actually very short, from the time of chaos to calm down, to the time they came over for supper, it took less than an hour. If you count the fighting time alone, it may not be 3 minutes, and most of the time was spent in the Qingsu leaders. The remnants of the "Holy Law Church" who spread rumors and made trouble.

On Kaios’ side in this battle, not to mention killed, not even injured.Only a few leaders who came to help capture the remnants of the "Sacred Law Church" who spread rumors and set fires were accidentally injured by guards after hearing the movement.

However, they made a sound in time, and the guards stopped their hands. They only suffered a little skin trauma, and it was not a serious problem. Doctor Grossman took care of it and healed up.

Keos told her so much and in such detail in order to observe her reaction to see what aspects she understands, where her focus is and where she has a relatively large emotional reaction.

Keos knew that she must have a special source of information, and knew a lot about the high-level officials of the Holy Blessing Palace and various forces in the Western Realm.

After she reminded Shengyou Palace and Judge Pande about the infighting information before, Kaios had also talked about similar topics with Count Christina on the sidelines, and she was very sure that the source of the news at Qingtian Dawn would not be the Countess .

As for the riot tonight...

Qian Cang Dawn's thoughts are actually correct. Under normal circumstances, the remaining members of the "Holy Law Church" in Yulang City and several nearby main cities would never be stupid or crazy to attack his camp.

The reason why the high-ranking magician and those auras were "stupid" tonight was not because a few remnants of the "Holy Law Church" in the Kaios community spread rumors and cooperated internally and externally to let them see hope. Strong, orders they could not refuse.

That order... came from Keos.

Or to be precise, it was the information that Kaios obtained through Rudy, the servant of the undead, and falsely ordered Rudy to "hint" to the members of the nearby "Holy Law Church".

Rudy can be said to be the "Sacred Law Church" organization in Yulang City that he helped to establish with one hand. He controls the teaching of various spells and casts spells. He is the absolute core of power. The members of the "Sacred Law Church" in the surrounding main cities also Basically, it radiated from Yulang City, so the signals and orders he sent out, the members of the "Sacred Law Church" who had escaped the first wave of cleansing from the Shengyou Palace, did not dare not listen to them, and did not dare not obey them—— Most of them also have curses on them.

As for the remnants of the "Church of the Holy Law" that remained in Kaios' team, he had already known about it, but he hadn't carried out a cleanup operation.

One is that with the demise of the main members of the "Holy Law Church", especially Rudi, it is difficult for these diehards among ordinary citizens to cause any major and substantial damage.

Moreover, after the "Sacred Law Church" was dealt with by the Holy Blessing Palace, every settlement where the discipline knights visited would publicize what the "Sacred Law Church" did. "I am still afraid of punishing knights, so I won't be easily bewitched again.

The second is that these citizens were in different settlements before, each settlement was actually one or two, at most three or four, unless Kaios personally went to each settlement to deal with it personally, otherwise he would send others If someone goes there, it will definitely make a mess - other people don't have such precise discrimination ability as him.

But if he went to each settlement to deal with it himself, it would be too much to go to war, and it would easily cause panic among the settlements, which is unnecessary.

Therefore, it is relatively convenient to deal with it on the road. There is an excuse to link up with members of the external "Holy Law Church" to attack the civilian camp, and it is more in line with people's hearts.

In addition, it is also to lure a few surviving mid-level and senior members of the "Sacred Law Church" to come over and refine them into servants of the undead.

He didn't expect these undead servants to help him with anything, and with his current status, he didn't dare to publicly summon undead servants at all.

However, he took Rudy as a sample, and the undead servants who underwent special treatment can preserve almost all the memories of their lives, so this is the best way to obtain confidential information, even better than those soul magics that are equivalent to "spit injections" use.

After all, that kind of strong-control soul magic may directly damage the hidden ancestral spirit or the main body spirit, causing irreversible memory loss. Although the content of the inquiry is authentic, it may also be wrong.

The undead servants, in addition to answering questions, are often not so "intelligent", and will appear particularly long-winded. Since the beginning of Pangu, they have been chattering and chattering, and they are far more complete and repeatable in terms of information. Direct soul magic control comes stronger.

For example, the ones he made into undead servants this time are a high-level magician and a mid-level spiritualist, both of whom are contracted servants of the same lord. Since they know many secrets of the "Holy Law Church" here, they can Compare and refer to the information from Rudy, ask targeted questions, and know the secrets of many lords and surrounding nobles.

Of course, Kaios has no malice towards these lords and nobles for the time being, but in the future, when some of his layout involves these lords in this area, this information may help him open the situation at once.

Of course, in doing so, it was mostly Kaios who was experimenting and practicing this set of operating techniques. How to take the three spirits away completely after the combat power quickly and covertly killed the target was a test of skill.

Kaios sometimes couldn't help but wonder if he had gone too far on the road of soul magic and undead magic.

Now his refining soul, no matter Rudy or today's two, are people from the "Sacred Law Church". They are all kinds of guys who cast curses on people and play with souls, and even have hatred themselves. No psychological pressure at all.

But in the future, will he kill people other than the "Sacred Law Church" and refine them into servants of the undead?It seems that... this possibility is not ruled out.

If it develops along this route, why is it a bit like the style of the villain in various literary works?
The people around him, those who know his ability, no matter Salveira or Little Luna, are all "Master/Brother" who wants to kill, and they will use all means to kill each other, what "Master/Brother" will do, Even if they fully support him, even if he wants to destroy the world and subvert the Holy Blessed Alliance, they may follow him without hesitation.

As for whether the person to be killed is good or bad, and what is the success rate of what is to be done, they don't care at all, they don't care at all.

So they naturally wouldn't have any objection to his use of this undead servant's refining spell, and it was even more impossible to dissuade him.

Kaios himself will be vigilant from time to time, reminding himself not to indulge in any method and forget the original purpose.

But for the time being, no matter whether it is soul spells or the refining of "Undead Servant", he can't give up—this thing is really easy to use.

Early the next morning, the nearby lord who had many contracted servants participating in the attack on the Kaios camp came to see Kaios in person.

The lord named Zanssel was actually the same Baron Sanye as Caios, but when he came to see Caios, he was quite polite, polite, and even a little too humble.

Not only is it because Kaios has taken advantage of today's matter, but also because Kaios is now very famous in the entire Holy Blessed Alliance. With the strength of the baron, he defeated the Earl in a frontal battle. It was a classic battle recorded in the annals of history, and the lords of Yulang City and the nearby main city were almost unknown to everyone, and they themselves had several halos added to their bodies.

Xancel not only had a humble attitude, he also brought five thousand magic coupons and some normal fresh food supplies when he came to the camp, including vegetables, poultry and livestock.

With his statement like this, Keos naturally wouldn’t make an inch of it. He accepted the supplies, but he didn’t accept the [-] magic coupons. However, he negotiated a deal with Zanssel about a “magic refining system” worth [-] magic coupons, Both sides are happy with the order of the "Magic Array System".

When he came, the halo at the back of Baron Xancel’s head was 1/3 yellow—Kios took the initiative to send the only prisoner back without interrogation, which was naturally a big gesture of favor, and it was normal to have this halo.Of course, Zancel would not know that Caios sent the prisoner back because the prisoner's status in the "Church of the Holy Law" was too low, and he didn't know anything, and he didn't even know why they went to attack the camp last night.

When he left, the halo of the back of Baron Xancel's head had already started to glow blue. Although it was less than 1/20, for a lord who had only met once and had no previous encounters, this degree of favorability was already enough. Said it was very high.

After dealing with this matter, the large army naturally pulled out their camp and continued on their way to Valli City.

Although there was such an unexpected episode last night, today's large army marched much more smoothly than the previous three days. When they camped in the evening, they had traveled more than the previous three days combined.

On the fifth day, I had to drive more than the fourth day, and the sixth day was faster than the fifth day...

On the one hand, the road conditions during the past few days are very good, which is especially suitable for their large army with a lot of horses and horses.

On the other hand, the demon servants and the leaders have almost adapted to the rhythm of the road. They know what formation to change when the road is narrow, what formation to use when the road is wide, what formation to use when the road is on alert, and what formation to use when resting. formation.Knowing each formation, how fast it should go, how to arrange physical strength, and when to rest, the guards and stewards also know how to manage this large marching force and maintain order.

By the No. 30 day, the speed of the entire team had even exceeded Kaios' own expectations, and it also surprised Qing Cangxiao, who was also in the team.

Those contracted servants mainly composed of auras and magicians, or "magic attendants", can always travel for a long time in a relatively regular formation, and can often change formations without chaos, which is relatively normal.

But those ordinary citizens have also begun to adapt to this way of traveling full of various constraints and changes during the long journey, and it is unexpected that they can maintain a relatively positive mental state overall.

Although this is related to the supply plan that Kaiosna spent a lot of money on, and all the old, weak, women and children who can't move around have a car ride, but this kind of active cooperation from the bottom to the top, this kind of 3 people It is really abnormal for the Long Snake Brigade to be able to stay in chaos and not to disperse during the long journey, and to be able to maintain an orderly manner for a month.

Qian Cang Lixiao feels that this cannot be explained simply by being nice to the people and willing to spend magic coupons, it is definitely not that easy.

As time went by little by little, I followed Kaios every day when I was on the road, watching him handle various affairs at dawn, and found that their team, in fact, not everything was planned and planned before departure. Preparation, just like the messy situation in the first three days, they were actually constantly encountering various unprepared and unexpected emergencies on the road.

For example, on the 63rd day and the third month, an epidemic broke out in the team.

First, a five-year-old child was infected and died suddenly within a few hours, and then more than a dozen children aged two to seven developed the same symptoms.

Keos personally took Dr. Grossman and two top-ranking magisters, and dispatched the refiners and alchemists who had done some research on epidemic diseases and medical skills from the R&D teams he brought to Valli City. , formed a temporary medical team, used medicine regardless of the cost, and saved the lives of all the infected children, and finally found the cause within a few hours-a special poisonous insect.

After catching the corpse of the poisonous insect and determining the type of poisonous insect, it was easy to handle. Soon, Doctor Grossman, with the help of the "temporary medical team" led by Keos, prepared the treatment and deworming medicine.

It can be said that more than a dozen children with the disease were almost cured by the medicine and recovered quickly.

Qian Cang Lixiao later learned that this special poisonous insect will have several stages of evolution. At the beginning, it is difficult for them to invade the adult body, and they can only reproduce and develop with the help of young children. After further evolution, they will reach the four-body stage, even if they are very Beginner and intermediate reiki fighters who are strong and have aura body protection cannot avoid being parasitized.

At that stage, it will be very difficult to get rid of the poisonous insects safely and without harming the host's body at all.

Of course, the four-body stage will not be used normally, and someone in the team should realize what kind of poisonous insect it is and know how to deal with it.

But by that time, there must have been a lot of casualties, and the mental blow to the entire westward team must have been great.

Kaios' attitude and efficiency in solving problems have naturally become the behavior style of all contracted servants and magic servants.

After dealing with the poisonous insects, Kaios immediately made a regulation. When resting and setting up camp, several areas should be designated for the children of the people to play. Each area must be guarded by at least five junior magicians to avoid contact with children. To poisonous weeds and poisonous insects.

Regulations like this that are constantly revised and added abound along the way.

For example, in the second month, Keos asked the steward Pete to inform all the citizens, all the citizens who did not travel by car or on foot, their performance along the way will be secretly recorded by the steward and contracted servants, etc. After reaching the territory, corresponding rewards will be given.

Some will be qualified to enter the newly opened high-level school in Kaios that will teach in person, some will be rewarded with magic coupons, and some will even have the opportunity to become contracted servants and enter the promotion sequence of steward, servant master, and servant.

There are many similar changes and new regulations, all of which have immediate effects.

Moreover, Qing Cang Dawn also discovered that these regulations were not only formulated by Kaios himself, but often his contracted servants discovered some problems and had some ideas. changed.

If the entire westward migration team were regarded as one person, Qian Canglixiao felt that he was a poor ordinary cultivator in the first three days, and he might not even pass the spiritual energy talent test, but when he stepped into the third month, he Already a high-level spirit fighter, the speed at which his strength increases can be seen with the naked eye, which is very scary.

When they set off, Qian Cang Lixiao was a little worried, their speed was too slow, might they be blocked by heavy snow on the road.

But in fact, when they entered the area under the jurisdiction of Valli City, it was nearly a month earlier than they expected.

However, after entering the jurisdiction of Valli City, everyone's nerves began to tense again. The rhythm of the "Magic Attendant" shift changed from three shifts to two shifts. The number and strength of the guards have been greatly increased, and even top-level holy spirit guards like Bao Zhengyin have been sent.

Because entering the jurisdiction of Valli City, in a sense, it can be regarded as entering the "Western Territory War Zone".
