The Rise of the Cemetery

Fortunately, Li Xun is only a young man of 17... no, he should be almost 18 years old. He grinned at himself and forgot the loneliness just now.

Men, it’s inevitable that they’ll be busy with their careers, and it’s inevitable that they’ll be empty and lonely, and they’ll have nothing to worry about, haha, just do it. As for whether there is an essential connection between loneliness and eating and drinking, it is beyond Li Xun's superficial experience to figure it out!

They soared into the sky and flew all the way, and rushed back to the camp in less than half an hour. Li Xun stood stunned in mid-air, rubbing his eyes involuntarily as he looked at an empty space somewhere.

Princess?

Siris?

Silis, who was invisible and isolated in mid-air, didn't notice Li Xun, but silently watched the noisy crowd below. From Li Xun's perspective, she could only see her side face, but such a simple side face was enough to confuse her. A young man without personnel. Under the reflection of the huge moon behind her, her long hair seems to be made of the purest gold, but softer and more delicate than silk, and her white and greasy skin seems to have captured the essence of Chuxue, which is enough to make Snow White in fairy tales feel happy. of jealousy.

Maybe she didn't think that she could be seen even when she was invisible. Siris didn't hide her mood. A feeling of powerlessness and emptiness enveloped her. After forced laughter during the day, all that was left was a heavy gray tone.

Li Xun also sighed for some reason. The beautiful girl, the pure and charming princess, should be the eternal heroine in the most vulgar plot of the most vulgar knight novels, enjoying the knight's love and pursuit, but in this fucking horror world, she has become a homeless and countryless woman. homeless. All the goals in life were imposed on her by others, and all the bright futures were not in her hands, and then she met such a big, round and damn bright moon night, and ordinary people on the ground who were satisfied with a little harvest! Li Xun flattened his mouth, the more sensitive a person is, the easier it is to get hurt, how can he be as invulnerable as himself!

Sneaking back to the camp without seeing it seemed a bit heartless, but Li Xun felt unable to say the comforting words. Hehe, foodie has a foodie solution!

Li Xun tapped his hands together, and several magic spells were released quietly. After a while, some melon and fruit steaks inexplicably disappeared from the dining table on the edge of the celebration venue, and some canned wine also flew into the air unnoticed. Under Celis's surprised gaze, the food slowly floated in front of her, as if there was an invisible dining table in front of her, quietly stopping there.

Li Xun showed his figure, and said with a gentlemanly bow and smile: "This beautiful lady, may I have the honor to treat you to a meal?"

Siris silently stared at the young mage in front of her, with complex and changeable expressions in her blue eyes. After a while, she lifted the mage's robe lightly, performed a court salute, and replied softly, "My honor, Your Excellency!"

Li Xun and Siris stood facing each other, and the invisible servants quickly filled their faces with "stolen" things. The two looked at each other and smiled, and they didn't have so many formalities. They chose something they liked and ate and drank quietly. While eating, he lowered his head and glanced around, and when he saw something he liked in the venue below, he just pointed at it, and soon that thing appeared on the "dining table" in front of him.

Nothing else, the most irritating thing is Li Xun, pointing his finger, a quail stuffed with spices and fruits just baked in the middle of the field was also stolen by the invisible servant in an instant, making the servant who had worked hard for a long time Bing was frightened half to death, causing a slight commotion. Fortunately, the leaders of the two major mercenary regiments are all knowledgeable people. Knowing that this kind of thing can only be done by a magical mage, the words "you are dazzled" and "he is drunk" suppressed the matter.

Satisfied with wine and food, Li Xun sighed happily while rubbing his bulging stomach. Xi Lisi's fair face finally moved her eyes from the food to Li Xun, and she said in a slightly inaudible voice, "Thank you!"

Li Xun laughed, and directed the invisible servant to deliver the remaining items to the dining table below, waved goodbye to the princess gracefully, and returned directly to his tent.

...

When Casas and his party set foot in Dubin City again, it was already five days later.

The news of the big victory had spread back to the city long ago, and it was unknown whether Viscount Howard Hans would be happy to smash something to vent his joy. Li Xun couldn't help being a little disappointed when he didn't find the Viscount in the welcome queue at the gate of the city. He really wanted to see the Viscount's forced smile. It seemed that the other party didn't intend to give him this chance. However, this also reduces the danger level of the Viscount in Li Xun's mind. A nobleman who can't even smile face to face and stab a knife in the back has limited achievements!

The welcome ceremony at the gate of the city is simple and grand. Businesses and residents of all sizes in the city spontaneously gathered here to welcome the triumphant warriors, and every coalition soldier who passed through the city gates put on a wild chrysanthemum. The city guards and mercenaries of the mercenary regiment who had returned from the great victory raised their chests up, exuding a mighty and sturdy air. The mages calmly sat in the carriage and returned to the hotel where they stayed. Princess Siris's maid is still waiting here!

That night, the housekeeper of the Viscount's mansion sent a reward of 7,000 gold coins. The whole bandit suppression incident was considered to be over, and the next step was Putuo Port, the largest seaport city in the west of Thrane Kingdom.

From Dubin City to Putuo Port, one has to go through a duchy, three viscounts, and one baronet. Such a long journey also broadened Li Xun's horizons for the ignorant Li Xun, and let him never forget the viscount's treasury. freed from. In similarly adjacent territories, the living standards of the subjects may vary greatly. The quality of a lord directly affects all aspects of the territory under his jurisdiction. This time, if I go back to Novis, I will own a territory myself. How to manage it will become a question of scratching my head. Choice, after all, to consult Master Kasas on the issue of managing the territory, will only get big eyes and accusations of not doing business properly.

As the lord of the cemetery, the strategic development policy is the focus of my attention, and the fighting heroes of three or five people can be completed by the heroes under my command. It is conceivable that most of his future subordinate heroes will also be combat heroes. It seems that the internal affairs management can only rely on the local talents recruited from this world. Although the blood contract is effective, it is still unknown for those talents with deep faith. How to find an aide who can be completely trusted is my top priority.

In this way, his power will be clearly divided into two parts in the future: one is the cemetery, and the other is the secular territory. The two complement each other and do not interfere with each other. The cemetery can only be used as a behind-the-scenes force and a guarantee for the development of one's own power; the secular territory is a window for one to integrate into the world, so as to avoid being classified as demons and devils by all intelligent races in Klein Continent Invading forces from outside.
