The mage arrives

Gordon didn't have much thought about the situation in Freyton's country.Anyway, he is not going to fight in the mainland to become king or hegemony, so the chaos among domestic nobles has no effect on him.It's just that His Majesty the Emperor treated him well, and Gordon still cared a little about his sudden strange illness.Maybe after the messy things in the endless abyss are settled, it's time to go to the imperial capital again.

Apart from the changes in the political situation that he didn't care much about, there was no news about the things Gordon really cared about, such as the whereabouts of Reinas.This made him faintly uneasy.However, in Xiona's conversation with him, it wasn't all bad news.At least the development of his territory is going well, and it can be said that it is thriving and thriving.

The expansion and training of the army is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the equipment of the fleet is constantly being updated, and the total tonnage is further enhanced.Now that the Sea of ​​Steam's sea dominance has been fully guaranteed, Haiwen Peninsula can safely carry out maritime trade and continuously accumulate wealth for the lord's treasury.

And more importantly, the puppet dragon that Gordon started to build as a decisive weapon is progressing smoothly.With the superb metalworking skills of the gray dwarves and sufficient supplies, the entire metal body of the puppet dragon has been built.The next work had to be done by Gordon himself.

Since the call time was very short, Gordon couldn't explain too much.In view of the current unstable domestic situation in Ferreton, Gordon asked Xiona to strengthen the defense of the border.Because the lord adjacent to the Haven Peninsula—the Earl Frey, used to be the backstage of the Aldrich family, and was also involved with the Eisenstein family.There are such uneasy and well-meaning neighbors.In this eventful season again, we had to strengthen our precautions.

"...That's right. Sister, you'd better keep in touch with Faliya. If something really happens that shakes up the political situation in Freyton, the Antello family and the Freeman family can also help each other... time Here it is, so be it. Be safe, sister, I'll be back soon."

Gordon sped up his speech and finally arranged everything completely.As soon as he finished speaking, the ultra-long-distance communication circle under his feet, which could cross the space barrier, gradually extinguished and lost its brilliance.

The mage sighed helplessly and left the communication tower.

Miss Jeanne, a six-armed snake with only five arms, was waiting at the gate of the tower.Seeing Gordon appear, she twisted her snake waist and swam to Gordon's side, and asked, "How, Mage Freeman, have you contacted your family in the main material world?"

"Yes, Miss Jeanne. His Majesty Baru Dillon's communication tower is the leading engineering miracle in the endless abyss. Thanks to it, I can contact the main material world in time." Gordon gave a mage salute to the other party .

For most demons, etiquette is useless.But Baru Dilong and his right-hand man were an exception.At least Gordon made a good impression on the two demons with his usual politeness.

"Mr. Master, let me take you out of the palace."

"Then I'll be fine." Gordon glanced at the lizard.Nod slightly.

Logically speaking, the famous person beside Baru Dillon who is multi-tasking should be very busy. Why would she still have the leisure to hang out with herself, a human mage adventurer from the main material world?If it wasn't for already knowing that the other party was His Majesty's lover.Gordon even suspected that this beautiful lizard had taken a fancy to him.

When she was about to leave the symmetrical layout of the palace, Jeanne finally lost her composure.He sent an invitation to Gordon: "Master Freeman, your ability and strength. Your Majesty and I appreciate it very much. If you want, we can give you the title of Viscount."

"Hmm..." Gordon was greatly surprised by the six-armed snake demon's words.

It wasn't that she was surprised that Jeanna had won her over, but rather the bargaining chip the other party had offered to win her over: a title.

It seems that Baru Dilong is playing for real. Not only did he create a kingdom, he claimed to be king, and he even started to establish a domestic feudal system.

Seeing Gordon's surprised expression, Jeanna continued: "Of course, the generous His Majesty Baru Dillon is not those hypocritical human kings, the title of viscount is not just a title, you can also get a piece of real land. "

"Land? What kind of land do I want in the endless abyss?" Gordon smiled and shook his head.

"Of course it's not just the land..." Miss Snake Demon waved all five arms enchantingly, and continued to persuade Gordon, "You can get a large number—at least thousands of loyal demon servants. From the weakest Quasai Demon , to the berserk demon and thorn armor demon who can serve as the backbone of the army, and even the most powerful lizard and baluo demon, they will serve you wholeheartedly. Of course, the beautiful succubus is indispensable among them. Youba His Majesty Ludilong's order, these demons will always serve you and will never betray. Aren't they the most ideal subordinates compared to humans with unpredictable hearts? There are already several adventurers, including dark elves , the githyanki and humans, have agreed to His Majesty's conditions and become the first batch of lords of the kingdom."

There is some truth to this statement.But if Gordon really has such a group of demons, the reason why they will be unconditionally loyal to him is only because of Baru Dillon's order.If the demon lord suddenly changed his mind one day and didn't like Gordon, then one thought could make all the demons betray.

And that's not the crux of the matter.

What really caught Gordon's mind was why Baru Dillon suddenly made such a big effort to recruit outsiders from the abyss to work for him?He is so eager to expand his strength, there are about two possibilities.

First, Baru Dilong's ambitions are expanding and he is preparing to conquer other demon lords' territory, so he needs to expand his strength quickly.

Second, the ambitions of other demon lords were expanding and they were preparing to invade Baru Dillon's Kingdom of Order. He felt threatened, so he needed to expand his strength quickly.

After a short thought, Gordon ruled out the first guess.Because for Baru Dillon, who has symmetrical obsessive-compulsive disorder, he will not invade the territory of other demons until he has fully taken care of his own territory.

Then the remaining possibility is the second guess.

Thinking of the sudden appearance of Se Anzu and the various rumors about Baral the Iron Hoof, Gordon had a bad premonition in his heart.If the kingdom of order fell into chaos, then in the entire endless abyss, it might not be so easy to find a place for him to settle down safely.
