"Does he really dare to take the lives of so many people as bargaining chips for his own life?!" Pastor Prescott listened to Raphael's analysis and gasped, he didn't think Claire Latin dared to be so mad! Just listening to Raphael's analysis, he had to believe this answer, because Raphael's general analysis is really reasonable and convincing!

But the senses still can't accept such an answer. However, he still didn't want to believe in his heart that most of these priests and priests who could enter the temple of the Order Camp were still kind-hearted. It's normal for them not to be able to accept such an answer.

"Of course, isn't he preparing for this now?" Raphael didn't want to shatter the battle priest's illusions about a better future, but in the face of the facts, all lies will eventually be punctured, which is like a scar, even if you don't want to care about it, but it is there, and it will make you feel pain, because this is the reality!

The "......" Reverend Prescott was silent for a long time, apparently digesting what Raphael had said.

Raphael glanced at him slightly, he hoped that he could break the battle priest's illusions about humanity in advance, which would help him in the future, although it may be difficult to accept it now, but isn't growing up itself about experiencing pain? Butterflies need to shed their cocoons to be able to regain new life, and perhaps there will be a process of acceptance when they fade a little bit now, compared to accepting it when they touch the darkness in the future.

However, Priest Prescott recovered quickly, maybe he couldn't accept such a thing, but the Battle Priest's will attribute is good, as long as he still maintains his belief in the Shining Goddess, he will not be so easily defeated by others. This is also a hidden feature of the temple.

However, although it is said to be the friendship of the landlord, Raphael really does not have this time, so he asked Daniel to entertain the priest Prest and Tiffany and his party instead of himself, after all, it is necessary to let the little guy slowly get in touch with some of the things that the nobles should do, and the basic ability of the nobles to communicate still needs to be improved, and the little guy works hard, but he doesn't understand the truth of relaxation and moderation, so Raphael personally let him experience it.

"Lord Lord, this is the Jinsol consumption of the territory in recent times." Diana Mullen was wearing a long black dress, the hem of the skirt was slightly dragged to the ground, and as Diana Mullen moved slightly, she saw a piece of parchment in her hand to report to Raphael about the financial consumption of the territory when he left, her voice was very sweet, like a stream that slowly flowed into your heart, which made Raphael breathe a little relieved.

In general, the prices between the territories are very stable, and the exchange rate between the sols is very normal, after all, under Raphael's policy, it is impossible for those traders to adjust the prices as they want to do at the beginning, although this makes the income of the territory lower, but it greatly improves the quality of life of the people and supports Raphael's rule more.

In the past few days, he has not had much time to rest, many things need to be reviewed by him personally, and some powers cannot be delegated casually, so these things can only be operated when Raphael returns. For example, the full mobilization of the army, the division of territory, and what needs to be established on it, all of which need to be operated by Raphael himself.

Looking at Diana Mullen in front of her, with beautiful long blond hair, three-dimensional facial features, pure face, towering peaks, slender waist, round ass, everything is just like it was at the beginning, Raphael beckoned to her gently, she walked over with a very obedient step, Raphael put his hand into her fullness, and gently provoked, making Diana Mullen slightly aggravate her wheezing, her face was also rosy, and there was a trace of charm on her innocent face.

"Not now, sir." Diana Mullen said shyly, but there was no resistance in her hands.

Raphael chuckled, as if he had obeyed Diana Mullen's words, and withdrew his hand from it, as if it was only teasing her slightly, causing Diana Mullen to glance at Raphael with some coquettishness.

"You're going to thank me later." Raphael said this sentence inexplicably, which made Diana Mullen a little confused, and fifteen seconds later, there was a gentle knock on the door of the study, so that Diana Mullen immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, if the two of them continued to do this just now, then they would really have no face to see people. No matter how open the social atmosphere is, it will always be embarrassing to be broken by someone, especially if she still has an identity in the territory.

Quickly straightened the long skirt on his body, then calmed down, lifted the parchment slightly to cover the blush on his face, and then turned his back to the door, and then reported the previous situation, everything seemed very natural.

"Come in." Raphael smiled a little teasingly, which made Diana Mullen snort slightly, because of the original blend between the two, Diana Mullen understood some of Raphael's qualities.

He is the kind of person who is willing to tolerate other people's petty temperament, and will not beat or scold the attendants next to him like other nobles, so Diana Mullen knows very well that the somewhat immature man in front of him is still very soft in his heart. It made her love Raphael even more in her heart, this is a real man, iron-blooded externally and tender internally!

"Your Excellency, Lord Luther Dew has sent a message that the person you want to see has arrived!" The door was gently pushed open, and Harold walked in, this guard was left behind by Raphael after following Luther Dew to the Hill Collar, and after his experience in the Xitie Valley, he entered the second order, just enough to give him some work to do, after all, his own attributes are good, and he can do a lot of work.

"Name: Harold

Race: Human

Identity: Guard

Attributes: Strength 17, Agility 20, Constitution 16, Intelligence 19, Perception 15, Charisma 15, Will 19

Class: Level 17 Civilian / Level 12 Warrior / Level 16 Fighter (Level 2)

Professional expertise

Fighting spirit: There is a raging fire in my eyes, are you ready to fight with me? (Willpower +2, Agility +1, Strength +1, Battle Status Increase)

”

This guy's luck is good, the professional specialty of fighting spirit is very good among the professional specialties that can be extracted by fighters, and being able to comprehend this professional specialty when he enters the second order proves that this guy's talent is indeed good!

However, because of this, this guy seems to have given up on the warrior profession, because Raphael remembered that this guy's warrior level was fourteen at the beginning, and a drop of two levels proves that he has lost his momentum for this profession. Raphael remembered that there was such a setting in the game, and he didn't expect it to happen in reality.

However, this seems to be normal, cultivation itself is a boat against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. When you haven't held a pen for a long time, you will also feel that how to write is very strange.

But this is also a good thing, an ordinary person, knowing how to make trade-offs is easier to go further!

"Okay, I got it." Raphael nodded, now that he knows that Claire Latin has become his neighbor, how can he be driven away, on the side of the couch, how can he allow others to snore? Especially since this guy still has a dagger in his hand, it can't let him stay for a long time. So naturally he had to find a way to get this villain to move!

"Look, don't you appreciate me?" Listening to the sound of Harold walking away, Raphael sniffed the lingering fragrance in his hand and said teasingly.

"Thank you, my great lord!" Diana Mullen said with some anger, he knew that Raphael must have done it on purpose, with his ability, he must have known that someone would come, and he did it on purpose, and now he had to let her thank herself! What a cheeky one!

"Haha...... I'm going to go out, and you can deal with the territory first. Raphael couldn't help but laugh a little happily, pinched her somewhat angry face, and said, seeing her nod, Raphael walked out of the study.

Diana Mullen touched her cheek and followed, she had a lot of work to do for that group of slaves recently, funding, choosing a location, and arranging, all of which also needed her help to follow up.

Raphael rode out of the castle on a fast horse, followed by Harold, Duru and eight members of the personal guard, even if Raphael and his party hurried to arrive in the valley of the third day, it was dusk on the third day, and this was still the road between the territories, otherwise it would have been longer!

Some low-level war trees and soldiers left behind have been set up on both sides of the road in the Kobold Mountain Range, so as to prevent the Kobold in the Mountain Range from destroying these roads that have been built with great difficulty! The soldiers would salute Raphael with respect when they saw him, although they were stationed in the 'border' area, but Raphael did not pay less attention to them in the slightest, food and military pay were distributed as usual, and vacations were allowed, compared to other nobles, it was simply humane!

The valley of the Setiron is even more vibrant than when Raphael left, remembering that under the efforts of Luther Lu, trees were planted outside the valley, and these trees blocked the passage to the valley, and unless Luther Dew allowed it, these trees would be firmly guarded outside the valley!

But now, these ancient war trees stand on both sides of the road, and the breeze gently blows through their branches and buds, making a low rattling sound, which is very beautiful, and the natural fragrance that emanates from them gives people a refreshing feeling!

"That's the taste of nature!" Raphael sighed softly,

The soldiers inside the guard tower were using binoculars to observe the situation outside, and when they saw a group of cavalry suddenly appearing on the road, they all fixed their minds, because the location of the Xitie Valley was very superior, and those kobolds usually did not come here without interest, and the convoy of grain transportation was also delivered a few days ago, and no one should appear on this road now!

"It's your lord!" A soldier was a little excited, and the entire guard tower shook at once, and the soldiers quickly frightened the guard tower and lined up neatly, because this behavior was spontaneous, so the soldiers in the entire Xitie Valley gathered quickly, and they didn't know that they thought they were going out to fight!

Luther Dew was also alarmed by the movement outside, and walked out of the specially opened training room, Raphael didn't expect the soldiers to be so enthusiastic, "Lord Lord, I heard that there is a war ahead, don't forget us next time, we are also willing to take up the weapons in our hands to kill those who dare to violate our territory for you!" Some of the soldiers obviously heard some news, and said loudly, the crowd surged, and all the soldiers echoed this guy's words, and the scene got out of control for a while, but when Raphael raised his hand slightly, the soldiers instantly closed their mouths, if it weren't for the echo in the valley, it was as if the previous voices were all auditory hallucinations!

"I'm glad you have such a heart. But who says this isn't a battlefield? You are no worse than the soldiers who fought bloodily! On the contrary, you work harder! I am very pleased that you guard the borders of the territory every day, in obscurity and without the slightest complaint. Raphael spoke up, his words infectious. The soldiers puffed up their chests.

"For the sake of your lordship, this is what we should do!" The soldiers chimed in.

"I remember that you don't seem to have an army title yet, so from today onwards, you will be called the Shouye Army! Protect all of our family business! Raphael thought for a moment and said aloud. The soldiers' words touched him that they should not only be rewarded for their bloody battles, but also for the soldiers who guarded the border in obscurity, and that their merits were no less than those of other soldiers. Raphael felt that he should provide different reward systems for these soldiers with different divisions, otherwise it would be too unfair to them!

"Defend the industry!"

"Defend the industry!"

They were arguably the first army to be named in the territory, so they were all very excited. The soldiers dispersed

Walk in the valley of the Sunset, under the remedial of Luther Dew, the whole territory

This is a residential architectural pattern, houses, gardens, squares, houses are dilapidated, some houses have even collapsed, the garden is also overgrown with weeds, the four-meter-high sculpture in the center of the square, the whole head has fallen on the ground next to it, judging from the fractures above, this does not seem to look like it falls off naturally!!

Walking carefully in this town, it can be seen that this should be a combination of agriculture and blacksmithing, although all are deserted, but the wells and water storage systems carefully built by the dwarves are still available, these kobolds should have settled here because of this, most creatures can not leave the necessities of water, food may not make people die quickly, but lack of water can!
