Although Lind knew that the werewolves and demon hunters would make a comeback, at least for the time being, they wouldn't come looking for trouble with Lind.
Darkridge kept his promise on the third day and went to Goat Lake to wait for the werewolves to arrive.
However, even at night, he did not see the few werewolves from back then.
"These untrustworthy fellows."
Darkridge looked a little angry. He had spent the entire afternoon waiting for nothing, and he felt like he had been played.
However, Sadamir comforted him. "Perhaps those werewolves were afraid of you and ran away."
Hearing Sadamir's words, Darkridge immediately came back to life and said, "Right, what you said makes sense. Those werewolves must be afraid of me, so they ran away. Hahahaha, as expected, they knew that they were no match for me, so they surrendered."
Lind looked at this group of people and couldn't help but sigh. It was such a happy thing to be able to live ignorantly like Darkridge.
As for him, he still had to rack his brains to think about how to develop his territory so that he could survive in this alternate world.
For the past few days, he had been hiding in the study and reading books. His goal was to understand this world.
Now, he had a rough understanding of the world he was in.
The continent he was currently on was called Bayes Continent.
On this continent, there were a total of three large countries and more than ten smaller duchies.
The large country in the north was called the Frost Plains Empire. Most of the territory of this empire was covered in ice and snow all year round. Although it was the largest of the three duchies, its land was relatively barren.
They were originally a group of northern nomads.
However, more than a thousand years ago, a man called "King of Handa" appeared on the grassland of the Frost Plains Empire. He commanded the iron cavalry of his tribe and swept through the entire Frost Plains Empire, finally unifying the entire Frost Plains Empire.
However, due to the barrenness of the land, the Frost Plains Empire yearned for a fertile land that could belong to them.
In history, they had invaded the south countless times.
It had also snatched many places from the Tulip Empire.
However, the Tulip Empire, with the support of the faith of the God of Light, could always take their territory back from the Frost Plains Empire.
The war between the two sides lasted for almost four hundred years.
Even in peacetime, it was only a temporary truce to recuperate. Once the Frost Plains Empire felt that they could do it, they would reorganize their army and attack south again.
The last time the Frost Plains Empire launched a war was five years ago.
However, the target of that war was not the Tulip Empire.
They took a detour and ambushed the third largest country in Bayes Continent, the Republic of Free Federation.
They had thought that the Republic of Free Federation's military strength was weak and that they could quickly take it down by surprise.
In the end, they encountered tenacious resistance and were attacked from behind by the Tulip Empire.
In the end, when the supply line was cut off, they could only choose to surrender.
This war had severely reduced their national strength. Without decades of development, it was probably impossible to organize another war.
As a result, the Bayes Continent ushered in a period of peace.
Under the influence of this atmosphere, the Frost Plains Empire was obviously a country that advocated martial strength.
They would not reject any power that they could use.
Demons, vampires, werewolves, liches, and alchemists.
All the infamous forces on the Bayesian Continent were welcomed in the country.
The entire country followed the law of the jungle where the strong were respected and the strong preyed on the weak.
To the south of the Frost Plains Empire was the Tulip Empire where Lind was now.
It had been mentioned before that this was an empire where there were two supreme powers.
The actual ruler of the country was the Church of Light.
However, the royal family of the Tulip Empire had launched three revolutionary wars against the Church for power.
But without exception, all of them failed.
After all, the Church in this world had powerful strength and a mysterious ability called light magic. It was not just a group of missionaries who could only preach. It was basically wishful thinking to seize power from the Church with the royal army.
Ironically, two of the three wars ended before they even started.
This was because many of royal guards had been believers of the God of Light since they were young. They had already snitched to the Church before the Emperor could mobilize his troops. The only Emperor who had successfully launched a war did not even leave the palace. The Church only sent an archbishop to easily suppress the rebellion.
This proved that everything was illusory in the face of absolute power.
Nowadays, no emperor dared to challenge the authority of the Church.
However, the Church still did not relax their surveillance of the Emperor. As long as the Emperor was unsatisfactory, they would immediately replace him.
Since the founding of the Tulip Empire, the Church had changed emperors 22 times.
This made Lind sigh. In this world, even emperors had to live as if they were treading on thin ice, afraid that one day when they woke up, their throne would be gone.
Further south of the Tulip Empire was the Republic of Free Federation.
This was a country with advanced technology that advocated knowledge and magic.
There was no ruler in the country. It was an association called the Six-Party Parliament that determined the affairs of the country.
The association was composed of six organizations: the Knights' Board, the Association of Mages, the Association for the Advancement of Technology and Machinery, the People's Freedom Alliance, the Free Trade Association, and the Council of Scholars.
Each power can elect a parliamentary representative to speak on its behalf in the Six-party Parliament.
Each parliamentary delegate had six members who represented the power in voting at the six-party meeting.
Every bill in the Republic of Free Federation required a parliamentary representative from the six organizations and six members of Parliament, adding up to a total of forty-two people, to vote on it. More than two-thirds of the people must support it before the bill could be implemented.
As a result, the Six-Party Parliament was also known as the Meeting of the Forty-two.
Compared to the Tulip Empire, the Republic of Free Federation was more open-minded.
They did not think that vampires were evil existences. They only saw them as a form of life.
Therefore, in the Republic of Free Federation, as long as one could abide by the local laws, regardless of whether one was a vampire or a werewolf, one would be protected by the Federation.
In Lind's memory, there was a lord who established his territory in the Republic of Free Federation.
Now, not only could he walk out of his territory openly, but he could even chat and laugh with the upper echelons of the Republic of Free Federation.
This made Lind extremely envious. If he had known earlier, he would have set up his territory in the Republic of Free Federation.
It could save him a lot of trouble.
At least, he would not have to worry about the Church and the demon hunters harming him.
It was all the fault of his predecessor. Why did the man have to be a believer of the God of Light?
He built his territory in the Tulip Empire.
Thinking of this, Lind couldn't help but sigh faintly.
Sigh~
