Night gradually fell.
A familiar chime sounded.
After scanning the pieces of intelligence information.
Thor's worries didn't diminish much.
On the contrary, it is more intense.
When the morning sun shines.
When a new day arrived, Thor first went to check out the location of the northern town. It was similar to what Pelos reported. The entire northern town had gradually grown in size. The tall walls shrouded the town, and a man named The goblins are working hard to build.
Outside the town, there are stretches of farmland.
Golden ears of wheat are dotted in the fields, and they are growing very well. It can be expected that there will be a good harvest here.
"grown ups!"
"grown ups!"
"Owner!"
"Lord Lord!"
Along the way, knights, freemen, and slaves all saluted respectfully, and everyone looked at Thor with fanaticism in their eyes.
Life in the Eagle Territory was something they could never imagine in the past.
It is safe, peaceful and free here.
Full of hope.
More than a year has passed, and some women's abdomens have even swelled slightly. It can be expected that a batch of newborns will be born in the Eagle Territory this year.
"Char, how many free people are there in the Eagle Territory now?"
As if thinking of something, Thor looked at the affairs officer Char who was following him.
"Lord, the current population of the Eagle Territory has reached 8,000, and there are 832 free citizens."
Charles spoke respectfully.
At this moment, he was also feeling a little excited.
Like Peros, Char was desperate when he was dispatched to the Eagle Territory.
But when he arrived at the Eagle Territory, Char was only shocked.
Master Thor has only been around for a year, and the scale of the Eagle Leader is not inferior to that of some viscount families in the Frost Moon Province.
The entire Eagle Territory was even more prosperous than he imagined.
And he also got something that surprised him.
That is his descendant, who will have the qualifications to enter the Young Eagle Knights.
As long as he gets enough merit points, his descendants can enter the Eagle Knights, learn knight breathing, and have the qualifications to become a glorious knight.
Although it is just a qualification.
This qualification blocks 99% of civilians.
With the knight's breathing method, even if he fails to become a formal knight and is just a trainee knight, it is enough for civilians to complete the class jump.
Because of this, he can be said to be extremely dedicated to Thor, the lord.
"Eight hundred and thirty-two!"
"We can relax it a little and allow more free people. We can also count how many female slaves we need. I will go to Loren City in a few days and buy them all."
Thor nodded, then spoke thoughtfully.
Although slaves are very important, the demand is not that great when there are goblins.
Converting some slaves into freemen and allowing the territory to develop healthily is the most critical thing.
"yes!"
"Lord, we currently need more than 200 female slaves. Considering the future development, it is best to prepare 300, or even 500 female slaves."
Char nodded in response, then thought for a moment before answering.
"Five hundred people, I know!"
Thor frowned slightly, but still nodded in agreement.
This time his gains from the crackdown were not small.
In this case, buying five hundred female slaves was nothing.
Especially this time, he plans to expand the population of his territory again.
In his plan, the target number of people is to reach 10,000 to 30,000 people in one small town, and at least 20,000 people in two small towns.
Of course there can't be so many in the beginning.
However, currently increasing the population of the two small towns to five to six thousand people is not a problem.
"By the way, how is the fishery established in the north?"
As if thinking of something, Thor looked at Char and asked.
After the construction of the reservoir was completed, Thor had already considered cultivating fisheries.
When the output of farmland is limited, fishery is undoubtedly a big supplement, and it can also provide a large amount of high-quality protein, which is still very useful.
So before leaving, he had already given instructions.
"Construction is complete!"
"In another three months, the first batch of tilapia will be mature enough to be used as food and can be sold."
Charles spoke respectfully.
After hearing Char's words, Thor nodded with satisfaction.
The situation of the entire territory was better than he imagined.
Up to now, it has basically formed a scale.
Next, the only problem is to expand the population, cultivate farmland, and build a lot of infrastructure.
Apart from that, there is only an improvement in strength.
Now his strength is not weak, but as mentioned before, in this turbulent Northland Province, this strength is not enough, and stronger strength is needed.
But the former is fine, but the latter is not so easy.
Neither quantity nor high-end combat power can be easily improved.
Not everyone has the qualifications to become a knight.
Likewise, not everyone's knight cultivation can continue to improve by leaps and bounds.
Ren's talent was so powerful that he broke through to the Great Knight in a short period of time. Steve had already reached the official peak of the Knights at that time, and with his support, he successfully stepped into it. Others, let alone wanting to break through to the Great Knight, even It is not easy to break through to become a formal knight, even a trainee knight is difficult.
So far, there are only forty-three formal knights in the entire Eagle Territory, and only one hundred and thirty-two trainee knights.
You must know that in this year, he has given a lot of resources.
Even so, the improvement in strength is not too obvious.
If he wants to increase it, he will have to invest more and obtain it from the outside world.
For example, picking up a top talent like Renn again, but this is simply a dream.
Other than that, the only thing I can do is get the continued support of my father.
As he becomes a baron, his father must have some support, there is no doubt about it.
He was originally planning to return to the family after becoming a baron.
But the turmoil in the Northern Province made it impossible for him to escape and return.
As for writing a letter, he thought about it for a moment and chose to give up. After all, he became a baron and he had to return once anyway, so there was no need to do anything more.
We just need to wait for the Northland Province to become a little more stable before we can take action.
Stepping forward, his figure inspected the northern town.
After arranging some issues, he immediately returned to the Eagle Territory.
At this moment, the Eagle Leader also has some things to deal with.
Just when Thor was dealing with things.
A figure ran over excitedly.
"My lord, my lord!"
"Nia, he made the cut!"
Alan's voice sounded excited.
Thor looked up instantly, his expression was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, and a touch of surprise inevitably appeared on his face.
Nia, that is the name of the unicorn leader.
Because the opponent was already on the verge of promotion, Thor did not take them with him during the purge.
But I didn't expect it.
The unicorn leader actually advanced.
"Walk!"
"Take me there!"
Thor couldn't help but speak.
"Okay, sir!"
Allen quickly responded, and the figure took Thor to the racecourse.
After a while.
Thor arrived at his destination.
At this moment, he saw the obviously different unicorn horse at a glance.
Compared with the previous unicorn, Nia's figure at this moment has not only expanded a circle, but at the same time, the gray horn on his head gradually turned into silver white, and there was a vague whirlwind spreading around his body.
"Third level!"
Looking at this scene, Thor couldn't help but feel a little excited.
At this moment, he naturally understood what was going on with the changes in the one-legged horse. It was because the opponent had transformed into the third level, and the blood in his body had evolved again.
If it can step into the fourth level, the unicorn will turn into white, and wings will grow from both sides.
Of course, it is the purest unicorn.
The bloodline of the unicorn in front of me is not that pure. As expected, the third level is basically the limit.
Even being able to break through the third level relies on Allen's talent of affinity with all things, otherwise it will only be the second level.
The one-legged horse saw Thor coming, quickly stepped forward, and nuzzled Thor obediently.
During this period of time, Thor established a lot of feelings with it.
Apart from Allen, he is the only one who is closest to Thor.
"Buzz!"
While rubbing, a ripple spread, and a magic circle appeared on the unicorn.
Thor's heart moved.
Then I understood what was going on.
His expression was a little surprised, but after the accident, he was pleasantly surprised. Without any hesitation, his mental power was intertwined.
"Buzz!"
The magic circle under his feet also lit up.
Magic circles intertwined.
In the dark, a contract was concluded.
This is a pet beast contract independently formed by Warcraft.
Although it is not as good as a life-sharing contract, after this contract is concluded, humans and monsters can also reach the point where their hearts are connected.
At this moment Thor could clearly feel Nia's cheerful mood.
"good!"
"Starting from today, I will give instructions to let you enter the Eagle Knights. I look forward to the day when you become an official knight."
Thor gently stroked Nia, and Nia closed her eyes comfortably.
The words were spoken with a slight smile towards Allen.
"Thank you, sir!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Allen appeared with excitement and his eyes were bright.
Thor smiled and nodded.
After a few more words of encouragement.
Then he turned over and sat on Nia's body.
A thought came to mind.
The next moment, the whirlwind under Nia's feet suddenly spread, and the wind elements gathered.
In the blink of an eye, its figure turned into a whirlwind and disappeared.
quick.
Unimaginably fast.
Thor had never imagined such speed.
The speed of the unicorn horse that broke through the third level was simply mind-numbing.
Thor is absolutely certain that this speed is definitely faster than the average earth knight.
In addition to being unable to fly, even some fourth-order orcs may not be able to catch up. Only the Sky Knights can stop this terrifying speed.
The feeling of a Mercedes-Benz is addictive.
Thor rode Niya through the territory for a long time before gradually stopping.
"From now on, we will be partners!"
Thor spoke softly, stroking Nia's horn, and the smile on his face grew stronger.
Night falls.
Thor then put Nia back into the stable.
His figure returned to the castle and continued to deal with some things.
Prepare to go to Loren City tomorrow.
But there are still many things that need to be dealt with by him, and he must make arrangements before he can set off.
Night gradually passed.
A new day has arrived.
Early in the morning, the territory started to get busy.
A large amount of supplies were gathered.
During this crackdown, he gained quite a lot.
Some things have been sold through the Lajos trade route.
But there are still a lot of them left.
These things are difficult to sell, so they can only go to Loren City and sell them to the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce.
Not only his, but the other five lords also have quite a few.
In addition, you need to go to the Habsburg Chamber of Commerce to purchase more slaves, as well as some scarce materials for territory construction.
These all need to be dealt with.
Thor planned to take them to Loren City to handle them all at once.
But there are too many supplies.
In the end, more than fifty carriages were loaded, and they were barely finished.
And because of the cleaning and loading, it was evening.
However, Thor did not delay and set off anyway.
This time he brought not only fifty carriages, but also many knights.
Among the troops this time, there was Renn, a great knight who had just made a breakthrough, as well as more than 20 formal knights, more than 50 trainee knights, and hundreds of reserve knights.
Hundreds of people.
It can be said that it is almost as good as when he went to the territory from Loren City.
Originally, he didn't plan to bring so many people, but there was no way to get daily information.
But he would encounter many orc tribes, and he had to be prepared.
Seven days passed quickly.
Thor led the troops to the city of Loren.
As predicted by the daily intelligence, they suffered two attacks from the orc tribe.
But fortunately, with the power brought by Thor.
These two orc tribes were quickly dealt with, and he even harvested the corpses of three second-level orcs, which was enough to exchange for thirty merit points, and there were also corresponding resources worth hundreds of gold coins.
The sunset gradually falls.
The huge city of Loren looms in the distance.
The pace of the group also involuntarily accelerated a bit.
Finally, before dark, we entered the city of Loren.
