Chapter 246: Ryza Technology and the Knight Conference Begins (4000 miles, please, cough cough)

Rand read the report in Full Moon.

In this war between the frontier territories started by Pero, the damage on Rand's side was relatively small.

There were heavy casualties on the defense line, and on the Crescent Territory side, the villages suffered considerable damage.

But overall, with Rand's troops facing Perot's troops, they won with such little sacrifice, which is already a miracle in war science.

In fact, Rand was prepared to be defeated and then be forced to fight a guerrilla war to disgust Perot.

But Rand was still not satisfied.

War always involves sacrifice, but Rand hates sacrifice.

Every soldier's death meant Rand's power was weakened a little.

So Rand broke his promise for the first time in a long time.

He had promised Pero that he would arrange a prostitute for him, but at that time he needed to return to defense as soon as possible, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got, so in the end he arranged a sheep for Pero.

"I upgraded it." In the office in the Full Moon Territory town, Lisa introduced the new robot to Rand.

Rand is quite interested in this. The person with the highest technical ability in the nest should still be Ellie, but she is usually busy with administration and office work, so she has relatively less time for research.

Lysa is different.

She always finds time to slack off and research her hobbies and creative ideas while completing her work perfectly.

Just like the humanoid construct in front of you.

Rand took over the same controller as the vibration communication device. Now he can operate it skillfully, but he doesn't know where Lisa has upgraded.

Rand flipped the switch and waved.

The humanoid construct did not move.

Rand frowned and looked at Lysa beside him.

Lisa's face flushed a little at this time and she took half a step forward.

Rand showed a suspicious look and waved the controller in his hand again.

Lisa's face became even redder, she gently covered her lower abdomen with her hands, and took two steps forward.

The humanoid construct next to it still did not move.

Obviously, this controller does not control this construct.

The upgrade that Lisa mentioned should be the upgrade of the vibration element, not this construct.

But controlling Lysa was really fun, and Rand couldn't help but play with her a few more times.

It was not until Lysa could no longer hold on and sat sideways on the ground that Rand stopped looking at Olenna's familiar yet not-so-familiar gaze.

"Ahem." Rand coughed awkwardly. "Have you found the bard who can speak the language of the murlocs and the Naga?"

"Found it." Olena, who was watching from the side, said, "It's in Man Yue Territory now. Work can be arranged at any time."

"Protect him and assign more guards to him. I feel like these Nagas and murlocs are not very well behaved." Rand said.

Olenna nodded to indicate that she had remembered it, and then wrote down Rand's instructions.

I will pass it down to the people below later.

After saying this, Rand turned his attention back to the report in his hand. Now the progress of taking over the Pero territory must be accelerated.

People in China should be receiving the news soon.

In fact, if Rand deliberately blocked it, the message could be transmitted back later.

But that's not necessary now.

Next, the Knight Conference must be held inside the Frost Moon Kingdom, and then the large number of undead and monsters that are about to appear must be dealt with.

By the time they held a meeting and decided what to do with the frontier territory vacated by Pero, Rand had already created a fait accompli.

If it is normal domestic territory, there is no point in creating a fait accompli. However, in border areas such as the development territory, it is possible.

After all, no one has any legal basis, so it is better for our own people to take it than to give it to the enemy.

"How's the shipbuilding going?" Rand asked.

"As for the shipbuilding technology in the territory, you may need to go back and design a plan in person," Olena replied.

"Let's do it this way for now. Let the workers prepare the wood first." Rand knocked on the table in front of him, making a thudding sound.

As for the division of Pero's territory, Rand took most of it and shared a small part with Sheran.

As an ally, Shelan will maintain the same stance as him and fully support him in the next situation facing the Anti-Development Committee.

In fact, Shelan might not be unable to guess Rand's ambition, but the conflict of interest is not that big.

His goal was to gain prestige and pave the way for inheriting the Earldom of Bucks in the future, as for opening up a new earldom.

At least in Shelan's eyes, it is very unrealistic, at least Shelan thinks it is impossible for him to achieve it.

The Bucks family is on good terms with Rand, so there is no need for him to stand in Rand's way.

As for Rand, it is now time to prepare for the development of maritime transport.

Because of the obstruction of the Naga and the Murloc, this may be a very long process, and that is why Rand plans to start as early as possible.

Water transportation in this era will be equivalent to Rand's highways in his previous life. The freight volume and delivery speed will be completely different from the land transportation of this era.

The economy of the Rand Territory relies heavily on trade and services.

If the route can be opened, then this place will be the foundation of kingship.

The inland sea bordering the Pero Territory is actually about the same size as the Mediterranean Sea in Rand's previous life. If trade can really be opened up in such a sea, the wealth it brings will be terrifying.

…

The royal capital of the Frost Moon Kingdom at this time.

The opening ceremony of the Knights Conference finally began.

Although the orcs in the north are now bringing considerable pressure.

The country is not very peaceful at the moment.

However, the success of several strategies against the Southern Kingdom helped the Frost Moon Kingdom to emerge from the shadow of civil war.

The national strength has also recovered significantly.

The economy, which had hit rock bottom, has begun to pick up.

The Knights' Conference, in a sense, is actually a means to revive the economy.

In the Frost Moon Kingdom, a large number of knights who have been awarded titles or wandering knights who have signed on will come to the royal city.

You have to know that knights are not commoners. The knight class already belongs to the aristocratic class, and relatively speaking, they are very rich.

Moreover, it would not be just the knights who would come to the royal city.

Many nobles of all sizes in the country who currently have nothing important to do will also be present.

See if there are any knights you like who can be recruited.

The purpose of this Knights Conference is not only to promote the development of the South, but also to serve as a talent market.

Let some nobles and knights get to know each other.

Therefore, at the Knights' Conference, even some great nobles or their heirs would personally take part in showing off their military power.

For example, at the last Knights' Conference, the Marquis of Black and Brown was still very young. Faced with the equally drastic international situation at that time, the Marquis of Black and Brown personally took part in the event, gained the support of many domestic nobles, and established a great reputation in the North.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Knights Conference is about to begin..." The host's loud voice echoed throughout the venue through the alchemical loudspeaker.

The participating knights were waiting in their own venues.

The owner of the perfume shop in the holiday villa, the great alchemist, the perfumer knight, crossed his arms and looked at his teammates.

This is the Crescent Moon Team.

At first, she wanted to compete alone, but since she accepted Rand's funding, it would be nice to fight as a team.

She wasn't particularly interested in the knighthood profession, but it was her father's last wish.

She comes from a knight family and has an older brother, but she went out on her own to pursue her own dreams.

As a result, after becoming a great alchemist, he found that he could not pursue that illusory truth at all.

After returning home, she found that her eldest brother had died in the war and her father was seriously ill in bed, hoping that she could inherit the family business.

So after knowing that the Frost Moon Kingdom was going to restart the Knight Conference, she came.

"Are you ready?" the Perfumer said to his three teammates in a sweet voice.

Two of them were the White King's personal guards, and one was a knight trained by Rand himself.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

It was a bit awkward standing behind the perfumer.

It is really difficult to maintain a normal state with such an amazingly charming beauty as a teammate.

In particular, this perfumer has an amazing body, just like a ripe peach.

It makes people's hearts flutter.

The perfumer felt helpless. She was a little nervous because she was about to participate in the competition, so she didn't pay attention to her manners.

Take out an incense ball from the perfume bag you carry with you and put it into the incense burner next to you to heat it.

Suddenly, the air in the preparation room was filled with a soothing aroma.

The knights, who were originally a little nervous and restless, relaxed a lot.

At least it's not like before when he couldn't concentrate anymore.

"Calm down?" The perfumer tried to control his voice and made it a little colder.

"Yes."

"It's our turn. We are the first one." The perfumer said seriously, "Let's go. Don't embarrass Lord Rand."

The rules of the opening ceremony are to conduct a group fighting competition. Four winning teams will be qualified to become seeded players and will not have to participate in some troublesome competitions.

Of course, if you want to show yourself in every stage, then seeded players can also participate in the competition.

At the competition venue, the perfumer shook his clothes and walked to the group fighting venue wearing a cloak with the resort's logo printed on it.

The perfumer raised his two-handed knight's sword, slightly stepped aside, and assumed a standard defensive stance.

Across from him was the perfumer, a woman with such a great figure that it was hard to focus on her, but her cape was very fancy, covered in commercial logos and slogans.

According to intelligence, this team is from the subordinates of "Rand" and needs to be treated with caution.

But they don't look like a proper knights team at all.

Behind this well-built woman stood a few knights dressed similarly, including an older-looking uncle and two teenagers.

However, although the equipment is a bit weird, it does not look like it is easy to mess with.

"The game begins--" the host announced the start of the game.

The next moment, the perfumer turned his wrist and rushed forward while swinging the two-handed sword in his hand.

She is actually quite strong, after all, she is a high-level professional, but her wrists are relatively slender and her weight is relatively light. When she wants to wield a two-handed knight sword, she is still easily dragged by the sword.

However, it is still beautiful and extremely fast.

When they entered combat mode, the knights in the hideouts behind her were also quite skilled. They moved forward almost at the same time as the Perfumer charged.

Then he won the victory in a simple and unpretentious way.

This was their first match, so the host waited until they won and came over to interview them: "As the winners of the first match of this Knights Conference, do you have anything to say?"

The perfumer admires the host's courage.

Obviously they are dressed like this, doesn't it already make it clear that if they are interviewed, they will be advertising? Anyway, the perfumer himself has nothing to be embarrassed about.

When the host walked up to her, she cleared her throat, her beautiful eyes rolling, and said, "The reason why we can win."

"That's because I drank the special blended juice from Crescent Moon and ate the grilled meat from the restaurant... There are discounts for traveling to the resort now~"

The host fell silent. He was not a professional host. The last time the royal capital held a knight conference was decades ago, and he was just born at that time.

However, although the purpose of holding the Knights Conference is to develop the economy, it does have the idea of ​​​​developing the economy.

But isn't this a bit too much?

The perfumer smiled sweetly and thought that the host was too young for not even putting away the alchemical loudspeaker.

Glancing at the dazed young host who was somewhat fascinated by her, the perfumer continued, "I would like to recommend a perfume in particular..."

At this time, the young host grabbed the alchemical megaphone and took it away, stopping the perfumer from continuing.

At this time, the knights, nobles of all sizes, and the king, second prince and eldest prince of the Frost Moon Kingdom who were watching the game were present.

Everyone was a little stunned by this novel way of promotion.

They have seen a lot of the world, but no caravan traveling on the mainland has ever displayed such a method of publicity.

Moreover, it seems that the territory of Viscount Rand, who has strong military capabilities, has many specialties?

Although they did not think that Rand could develop the territory to such an extent in such a short time.

However, there is something to the promotion of this beautiful woman with a sweet voice and a good figure. Anyway, some knights and minor nobles are planning to go and see her.

However, it is a bit shameless to let people promote it like this, and it also indirectly proves that Rand should be very short of money.

This made many nobles breathe a sigh of relief. It now seemed that Rand could not have appeared out of nothing.

Large-scale slave trade means a shortage of people, and advertising goods means a shortage of money. So, the military legend Viscount Land should not have a good life.

In this way, there is no need to worry too much that Viscount Rand will suddenly become a great noble in the country in the short term and snatch the domestic political pie from them.

…

Meanwhile, Karin, who was at the resort, was off work again.

I said goodbye to my colleagues with a smile at the workplace and returned to my residence.

She had finished eating the eggs she had received from Xinyueling, and she had some vague understanding of the principles of economic development here.

What’s also important is that, except for the psychopath you met at the beginning, everyone else here is very kind.

Everyone seemed happier than she had ever seen anyone anywhere else.

The lord here is really a great man, but unfortunately his name is Rand Nicholas, which makes Karin have to maliciously speculate that this lord has used some evil methods to rule this land.

Also, she had found out that her neighbor, the bishop, was actually named Kahn.

But Karin had never met Bishop Kahn.

Did he go somewhere else, or was he arrested?

Karin decided to continue investigating secretly.
