There is a lot of snow in the cold winter, but it is now the end of winter, and the main road of the college is cleaned by part-time students every day, which is considered clean.

Today, the sun is blazing and there is no snow, and the sky is crystal clear. All things are washed away, and there is only one color left in heaven and earth. There is no spring for all things to compete for, there is no summer for the splendor of summer, there is no autumn for the fruits, but there is only the simplicity of winter.

There were not many pedestrians on the main road, and the three masters and servants walked along the road. The man who walked in front of him and looked like a guard sighed softly, pointed to a row of saplings beside the road that did not have half of the branches and leaves, and said, "Originally, Edward wanted to directly transplant the ten-year-old alpine cedar, so that the academy could be green even in winter. However, the dragon calculated for him that if he replaced the cedar with a silver laurel sapling, he could save 200,000 gold coins alone. It's the end of winter, and even the sun is blazing overhead. On the contrary, the cedar trees will shade the main road with great light, which will make the main road look gloomy. It is better to plant these saplings, and when winter passes, spring will come and they will grow leaves. In the summer, even if it is shaded by greenery, it can block out the scorching sun a little. In the end, Edward adopted the dragon's proposal, and asked him to check the respective expenses of the college, and the items added up to save more than two million gold coins. ”

"The dragon is a calculating man. It is also reassuring to have such a person sitting in the rear. ”

The blonde girl smiled and said, "You and Edward are also visionary, but you both have a problem, that is, you look too high, and ignore the things under the tall building. Having people like Long to check and fill in the gaps for you can be regarded as complementing each other. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the compliment." The man bowed solemnly, causing the girl to chuckle.

The girl said, "I didn't mean to compliment you, but it was. I have seen too many examples of grabbing land, food, and talent, and to be honest, it is not impossible to feed the war with war. Especially in the early stage of the war, this strategy of grabbing everything can keep its own power growing to the greatest extent, and it is like a snowball. But the disadvantages are just as obvious, like a snowball rolling over. The snowball is big, but the snowball is full of snow? Not necessarily, right? ”

"The stolen territory, food, and wealth are fine. After all, it is a dead thing, even if it is a stolen soldier, it can be simply coerced and lured. In general, as long as this lord is not too bastard, for the soldiers, who to fight for is not desperate. As long as you earn military merits, you will fight. But those talents who can really influence the development of the territory forces are different, and they may be snatched by you for a while and have to serve you. But it is not a long-term plan, and people's hearts will change after a long time. Whether the lord is trying to win the loyalty of these people, or simply coercing and luring, it may not be very effective. ”

"The former may be able to win the title of a master, but it is difficult to say how many hearts can be captured. The wiser the people, the harder it is to gain their loyalty. As for the latter, which is even worse, it may be able to be used for a while, but who can say that the people behind are not honest with you? The girl said sincerely: "Talent is the cornerstone, and the cornerstone is naturally formed as soon as possible." The cornerstone cultivated by oneself is naturally more reliable than the one that was robbed. If you know what is not good, you can decide what can be reused and what will be left unused. That's why you have the Dawn Academy, and the Empire has several War Colleges. In the final analysis, it is all about doing a good job in the talent reserve project. ”

The young man sighed, "I have no foresight, but I just learn from it." At that time, he was in Storm City, so he thought of an extra way to raise troops and recruit soldiers, and he and Edward worked together to build an academy. After that, the results of testing the water were good, so there is the current light of honor. Don't look at the surface scenery of this college, it's all my belongings that have been smashed here. In case it closes in a few years, I will have to hold on to His Highness's thighs so that I can go and ask your father for an errand that does not lack fat and water. ”

The girl glanced at him and said, "It's better to hug Charoline than to hug me, she is the treasure of the royal family." I? I have many siblings, so don't expect him to treat me like a treasure. ”

The man smiled but did not speak.

At this moment, the neighing of horses and the sound of hooves sounded like thunder behind the main road. The young man frowned, and the cloaked woman who walked at the back reached out to gently support the long sword behind her back, and the man shook her head before she withdrew her hand.

The four horsemen swept like the wind.

There were all young men on the horse, and the first knight was about fifteen or sixteen years old, and he had a pockmarked face, so he naturally couldn't be called very good-looking. His hair was yellow and his eyes were blue, which made the silver-haired man who looked like a guard shake his head slightly. This age is the most precious time in a person's life, and the age when it should be full of vitality is due to too much contamination of wine and premature decay.

This decay is not only in the skin, but also in the bones. It seems that a young man who doesn't have much ability, but he can gallop in the academy, probably because of the shadow of the family behind him. The silver-haired man gently pulled the blonde girl, and the three of them leaned sideways to let them ride. Immediately, several young people whistled a few very impolitely at the blonde girl, and the girl smiled angrily: "It seems that the assessment of the academy is also very loose." ”

The silver-haired man nodded and said, "That's true, take advantage of this opportunity to come to the academy, let's walk around again." Let's see if there are any other problems, and we can deal with them all. ”

As soon as the blonde girl nodded and said a good word, she heard a neighing and exclamation in front of her. It turned out that several civilian students who turned into the main road from the fork in the road did not pay attention, and one person was knocked to the ground. Several of his companions hurriedly checked his injuries, but fortunately only scratched the skin. Instead, the yellow-haired boy stepped off his horse and was frightened and threw him to the ground. After being helped up by his companions, he walked towards the civilian students with a menacing attitude.

The silver-haired man narrowed his eyes and said, "Go and see?" ”

"Whatever you want."

When the three of them approached, the withered yellow boy pointed to the horsewhip and scolded several civilian students, who scolded them so much that their faces turned blue and white. Watching the excitement, the number of people gradually increased, and the blonde girl pulled the silver-haired man and said, "You don't go to administer justice?" ”

"Look again."

"See what?"

"See how those civilians respond, if they dare to resist, then I'll help them. If I don't dare, then I don't see it. But afterwards, don't think about it anymore. The silver-haired man had a faint smile on his face.

At this time, the withered yellow boy asked the person who was hit to kneel down and apologize to him, and several civilian students finally couldn't get angry. One person said loudly: "The academy obviously has a rule, regardless of the carriage and horse, must be parked at the entrance racecourse. You are galloping in this academy, and it is justified to hit someone? ”

The withered yellow boy sneered loudly: "Just a few of you untouchables are worthy of reasoning with me?" The rules of the academy are just for you untouchables, do you know who I am? I don't have to tell you too clearly. Anyway, here, I'm the truth. ”

Suddenly, there was applause.

The withered yellow boy looked over, and a silver-haired man came out of the crowd and asked with a smile: "If they don't deserve to reason with you, how about I talk to you?" ”

The young man laughed, pointed at the man with a horsewhip and said, "Where did you pop up and become a pariah, don't be afraid of you with a knife on your back in the future." ”

The man said slowly, "My name is Allen, and I am a small viscount in the empire. Do you think I'm qualified to reason with you? ”

The audience was stunned.

Who doesn't know that the Academy of Glory Light was founded by Baron Edward, and above Edward, there is also a Viscount Allen. That Lord Viscount is the co-owner of several territories in this vicinity, and he is the real master. Now the young silver-haired man claimed to be the Lord Allen, and there was a feeling of suspicion in his dreams.

The withered yellow boy was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "You are really bold enough to pretend to be that adult." Lord Allen's day is full of opportunities, how can he have time to visit the academy. You dare to pretend to be an adult, and see how I teach you. ”

The whip in his hand was drawn.

The silver-haired man didn't even blink an eye, and the cloaked woman suddenly flashed in front of him. The woman drew her sword, but as soon as she fished it out of her hand, she caught the whip in her hand. Pulling back further, the withered yellow boy suddenly screamed and couldn't help but fly towards the woman. The woman let go of the whip, grabbed him by the neck with one hand and lifted it, and asked without looking back, "To die or to live?" ”

"Don't be busy, throw him on the ground first, I'll ask him something."

The woman shook off suddenly, and the young man fell to the ground. His left leg hit the ground on the knee first, and there was a crisp crack of bone cracking, followed by a scream. The boy screamed a few times as if he were killing a pig, then pointed at the woman and the man and shouted, "Do you know who I am!" I am the son of Yudi, the Warden of Fenrir, and I will kill you. And these two women, I want them...... Yes! ”

The words that followed suddenly turned into a scream, and it turned out to be a silver-haired man squatting down. I don't know when there was an extra dagger in his hand, and when the dagger was inserted into the ground, one of the young man's fingers was cut off. The silver-haired man wiped the blood stains on the dagger on the young man's collar as if nothing happened, and said lightly: "But the son of a city guard officer, dare to be powerful in the academy?" Edward's rules are what I say. If what I say can't even be calculated, then this academy doesn't do it. ”

"Then again, who gave you the audacity to defy my rules? You just said that you are the truth? No, I am the only one in these territories. ”

The boy was so painful that he almost fainted, when a childish voice sounded: "Lord Allen, why are you here!" ”

The crowd parted, and a young teenager walked in. People didn't recognize the silver-haired man, but they knew that the boy was Os, the lord of the Light. When Oss saw Allen, he immediately knelt down on one knee and bowed his head. Seeing this scene, the withered yellow boy's heart was as dead as ashes.

He bumped into an iron plate, and in these territories, it was the hardest, too big piece!
