Elf Lord, intelligence updated daily.

Chapter 29 The Earl's Visit

Chapter 29 The Earl's Visit
During the days of waiting for the Earl's arrival, Loren tried his best to remain calm.

He trained and studied witchcraft as usual.

I spent most of August at sea.

Two days later, September's intelligence update.

[Monthly information updated]

[Intelligence 1]: The Demon Flame Grass you brought will cause many plants in the farmland to mutate, cultivating a large number of new crops.

[Intelligence 2]: The Demon Flame Grass has transformed ordinary roses into Demon Flame Roses and recorded the pheromones of the two magical plants. The Rose Fairy Insect is expected to evolve this month.

[Intelligence 3]: Hela is preparing to go to the orc tribe, where she will be attacked by the orcs.

[Intelligence 4]: The Flame Dragon and the Frost Lord clashed, and the Frost Lord was severely injured. The Flame Dragon then stole a Frost Dragon egg.

[Intelligence 5]: The Elf Queen has decided to tour the kingdom’s territories starting this month, bringing blessings to the elves of those territories.

The first two pieces of intelligence in September were both related to the Demon Flame Grass.

It seems he underestimated the value of the Demon Flame Grass.

Loren went to the farmland.

After bringing back the Demon Flame Grass a couple of days ago, he instructed the farmers in the field to carefully plant it.

Two days later, a large patch of Demon Flame Grass in the field grew particularly lush.

As expected of a weed that survived the demonic flames, its vitality is astonishing.

The intelligence report stated that these Demon Flame Grasses could cause plants to mutate, but it was unclear what kind of mutations they caused.

Loren returned to the castle and reminded Xuefu to pay close attention to the growth of the Demon Flame Grass.

According to intelligence, the Demon Flame Grass can be used to cultivate a new variety, the Demon Flame Rose.

The Rose Fairy Insect may evolve as a result.

A new Pokémon is coming to Sandstone Town!

Loris has been in the coastal town for a year, but her six sprite insects still show no signs of evolving.

The Rose Fairy Bug has only been around for a little over a month!
All I can say is that this little bug was incredibly lucky.

You can encounter two magical plants, the Black Rose and the Demon Flame Rose, right after you are born.

New plants can increase the evolution probability of the Spirit Bug.

The new Magic Plant has a particularly significant effect on enhancing the Elf Insect!
The Demon Flame Grass has not yet begun to propagate, and we do not yet know exactly how it causes plant mutations; further observation is needed.

In addition to these two pieces of information, the intelligence report also mentioned Hela.

Hela has a good personality and is a good candidate for a trading partner.

She might bring goods from the ocean, and Loren certainly didn't want anything to happen to her.

We need to find a way to get Loris to remind her to be careful.

Although Loris told him not to contact her for a while, Hela's safety was of utmost importance.

Loren wrote to Loris, asking her to remind Hela to be careful if she wanted to go to the orc tribe recently.

Within a month, the road between Jinhai Town and Shashi Town has been repaired.

Now, riding a horse from Shashi Town, it only takes half an hour to reach the coastal town.

Farmers in Shashi Town have begun a new round of planting, including peas, broad beans, cabbage, and shiitake mushrooms.

Five days later.

Count Laurent's caravan has finally arrived.

Upon spotting the convoy, Liz rushed to the training ground immediately.

Loren and Shirley are undergoing their daily training.

"My lord, Miss Xuefu, a large caravan has arrived from the direction of Tieling Town. It is very likely Earl Lorton's caravan."

Loren's spirits lifted.

"Liz, I hope you will be careful with your words and actions and stay in Sandstone Town. I will definitely train you to become a high-ranking knight, or even an earth knight."

“Liz understands.”

In the entire Sandstone Town, only three people knew about the Demon Flame Stone.

Loren, Shirley, Liz.

If Liz hadn't told him, Lorton would never have known this information.

Loren and Xuefu immediately ended their training and went upstairs to wash up and change.

The butler and servants stood on either side of the castle gate.

Liz led all the knights of Sandstone Town to the door to wait.

Loren and Shirley changed their clothes and rode off to greet the caravan. From the direction of Tieling Town, a caravan of eight carriages slowly approached.

Escorted by a group of knights, the carriage stopped in front of the castle.

"Lord Loren! Miss Sherry!"

The lead knight dismounted and bowed.

He was Earl Lorton's personal guard, a noble earth knight.

Loren and Shefl dismounted and returned the greeting, "Sir Red, is it Father who has arrived?"

"The Earl, along with Viscount Lord, Baron Loran, and Baron Lolina, have come together."

As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage door opened.

Several figures appeared one after another from the four carriages.

Directly in front of him stood a robust middle-aged man, Loren's father, Earl Loton.

He is nearly sixty years old, but he is very healthy.

Because he was also a Knight of the Earth.

Behind Lorton were four other people: his eldest brother Lorde, his sister-in-law Thea, his second brother Lorran, and his sister Lolina.

The Silvermoon family has excellent genes. Lord and Loran are much more mature than Loren, but they are equally handsome.

Lolina's appearance is very similar to Loris's.

The only difference is that Loris looks slightly more delicate, while Lorina is more heroic.

My sister-in-law, Thea, is also very beautiful and young.

She is nineteen years old this year, about the same age as Loren and Xuefu.

“My dear brother, the roads in this Sandstone Town are in such bad shape. You’ve been the lord for so long, why haven’t you fixed them?” Lolina spoke first.

Loren wasn't shy at all, "The economic situation in Sandstone Town isn't very good, sister, if you could help me out a little..."

Lolina looked at Loren, "Huh? You've advanced to the rank of beginner knight?"

"Yes, thanks to Xuefu's guidance."

Upon hearing this, the eldest brother, Lord, glanced at Loren expressionlessly and said, "At least you're starting to look like a knight."

Loren seemed not to hear.

"Father, it's very windy and dusty outside. Let's go sit down in the castle first."

Lorton nodded. "It seems your experience in Sandstone Town has matured you quite a bit. Lead the way."

Loren led everyone to the castle.

The servants and knights at the door bowed to greet him.

Loren instructed the butler to prepare drinks and braised snacks.

Lolina found it intriguing and went over to pick up a piece of braised meat with her fork.

Lolina's eyes lit up after eating the braised meat.

"It tastes really good, little brother. Is this a specialty of your Shashi Town?"

Loren smiled and said, "That's right, this is a braised dish that I specially asked the chef to develop."

Second Brother Loran took a bite and sincerely praised, "It's really good. Before coming here, I thought the situation in Sandstone Town was terrible."

Lorina said with a smile, "If I'm not mistaken, it must be Miss Xuefu's excellent management, right?"

Loren offered no explanation.

He doesn't care what others think.

In fact, this viewpoint is actually beneficial to him.

A genius like Loris always attracts attention.

Meanwhile, almost no one paid attention to Loren.

Of course, Lorton will still keep an eye on his son.

"Loren, I heard you recently acquired a few spirit insects, is that true?"

Lord and Loran looked surprised.

Lorina exclaimed, "How many? My dear brother, when did your luck become so good?"

Loran joked, "Is this still my brother who kills two elf insects every year?"

"It really was a stroke of incredible luck..."
