Chapter 489 Going to Sea (Part 1)

Soon, many matters on the territory have been arranged. Next, what Romon has to do and be busy with is something that will have a great impact on him—going to the capital.

Why do you say that this matter will have a great impact?

The reason is very simple. Although Luo Menggui is a viscount and is a local powerful faction, this is his first time to the capital, the first time to meet the king, and the first time to step into the upper-class social circle of the capital. The place directly affects the development of the family.

Although the strength of local powerful lords does not need to be too afraid of the royal family, the king is a king after all. A nobleman like Romon with weak connections and family roots has no need to offend members of the royal family in this regard, let alone in that mainstream upper class society. In the process, it left a bad impression on the entire aristocratic class.

"Is the carriage ready?" When it came to how to get to the capital, the first way that came to Romon's mind was to take a carriage and set off from land for about ten days. Arriving at the capital, the kingdom is not big after all.

This method is slower than the sea route, and it is safer and less troublesome.

A road leads to the king's capital, as long as the carriage goes straight, the kingdom they live in is different from other kingdoms with so many risks on the road, so taking the land road is undoubtedly a good choice.

However, the next piece of information made his decision completely dead.

"Master Viscount, the carriage is ready, but..." The officer in charge of hearing the news hesitated, wondering if he should tell the news that the road leading to the king's capital was occupied by demons.

"You go down first." At this moment, Nick and Farfer walked in, and Nick asked the internal affairs officer under him to go down, and replied instead of him: "The road leading to the royal capital was captured by demons." , Now the local army and the demon army are fighting lively, it is not good for us to join in the fun in the past."

"The demon army has come to our country again?" Romon rubbed his forehead in depression.

There are many countries on the mainland. After the demons in the county were repelled before, the situation in other counties gradually stabilized when the country sent troops. Unexpectedly, another demon army appeared.

"The demon disaster on the territory of our country has gradually subsided, but the Church of the Lord of Glory in our country has been devastated, and the neighboring country has suffered a disaster. A fleeing army of demons has come to us. The situation is not very serious, and it is not impossible. There are other ways to go, why join in the fun at this time? Although the sea is not very safe, at least it is better than going by land." Nick said.

"Well, that's all we have to do. Is the Fifth Fleet back?" Romon asked immediately.

The reason why he wants to go by land,

Another reason is that the Fifth Fleet went out some time ago to conduct patrols at sea, and the tasks were relatively busy.

"Well, the Fourth Fleet of Lantu Island has replaced them, and the territory is currently under construction. How about transporting another batch of refugees?" Nick suggested.

Nick is now an experienced head of the interior, and he said that it would be too extravagant to use the entire fleet just to go to the capital, but if only one or two warships escorted Romon out to sea, the sea area is now full of pirates. , And made a big feud with the pirates, and left their sea area. The danger is greatly increased, which is not a good idea.

Now that we have decided to go by sea, why don't we let the Fifth Fleet set off and take your lord to the capital by the way.

Since they took Romon over by the way, Romon would not think it was an extravagant and wasteful act.

Sure enough, after hearing this proposal, not only Romon nodded slightly, but even Farfer, who listened to it, also agreed.

"Romon, how about I go to the capital with you?" Farfell really wanted to see the world.

Romon looked at him with some anxiety, and it was okay to bring one more person. There are not many high-level officials who can be trusted in the territory now. Scholar Lu Lun rushed to Treasure Island to preside over the affairs some time ago.

Haiwawei became the mayor of a town, and he was responsible for a lot of things, so he had no time to take care of the defense of other places.

Sukar has also become the mayor of Yuanfan Town. He not only has to be responsible for the local financial affairs every day, but also maintains the peace and tranquility of the port. There are many things.

Shabid has now also become the mayor of a town.

The Warwick Knight is in charge of the entire Territory Knights and is very busy.

Right now, there are no knights in Rock Town.

The management burden of the internal affairs officer of the entire territory is on Nick, and it is impossible to increase the work.

After all the calculations, the temporary mayor of Panshi Town is Faffel's business.

Currently, only Fafer can make Romon trust him. It can also convince the entire territory.

The reason is that Farfer is a knight and one of the founders of the prototype of the entire territory guard army. Under such circumstances, can Romon take Farfer away after he left?

The answer is, of course, no.

"Fafeer, it's not that I won't take you there. If you go to the capital with me, who will manage the defense affairs of the territory? My wife, Alini, is seven months pregnant. Should she manage it again?" Romon looked at Farfell and said.

"This..." Farfell hesitated, but after thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case.

If he followed, among other things, who would take care of the affairs of Panshi Town?

Get Nick to deal with it?

His eyes fell on Nick, and he only felt that although this good friend's body was nourished much better than in previous years, he still looked thin and weak. Hit Nick too?

No, he can't do that, but he is the only one left on the territory. Who can afford the defense of the entire territory?

Thinking of this, Farfell said with a wry smile: "If that's the case, then I won't go."

"Well, I can rest assured that the territory will be handed over to you two. If there is any important matter, you can call Lulun scholars to discuss it together. If you can't make a decision, just wait for me to come back and talk about it." Romon urged.

"Don't worry, Romon, we will take good care of the territory, so you can leave at ease." Farfell said.

Romon touched his nose. Why, when he heard this, did he have a strange feeling?

The next two days were the preparations for the fleet to go to sea, not only the preparations for the supply, but also the crew took time to go home, get along with their relatives and family members, and explain things. Risk, we can't deprive people of this kind of warmth before going to sea.

August 25th, morning, sunny. breeze.

This day was the day when the Fifth Fleet set off. Romon took Lu Xiupei and ten selected attendants aboard the main battleship of the Fifth Fleet.

The gifts he prepared for the king and princess were also placed on this battleship.

Standing on the deck, looking at the gradually leaving coast, looking at Nick and Farfer standing on the shore, Romon didn't feel much sadness, and he came back after a while, but he didn't see his wife. Some lost.

My wife is now seven months pregnant, so it is not suitable for blowing the sea breeze, let alone this kind of farewell scene. Romon didn't let her come over in person. The women standing on the shore must be his wife's maids, who came here instead of her. .

Feeling in his pocket, there is a peace talisman made by his wife for him. Because the fetus cannot be moved, this talisman does not have much magical aura, it is more of a symbolic meaning, but it is a piece of his wife's Mind. He still put it in his pocket carefully.

"My lord, it's windy at sea, you'd better go back to the cabin!" After a while, the sea breeze gradually picked up, and Lu Xiupei appeared beside him as usual, reminding him to pay attention to his body.

"Well, okay, you rest too, there won't be any problems on board, and it's time to pay attention when we get to the capital." Romon nodded, and said casually while turning around.

"Yes, my lord!" Lu Xiupei said.

As a personal servant, Lu Xiupei's task is very easy. When there are other servants, he can take turns to replace him. When there are no other servants, with Romon's own strength, he can definitely protect himself.

Speaking of self-protection is actually an underestimation. Lu Xiupei is very clear about the lethality of a ninth-level druid. In order to better stand beside Romon and not be left far away by the lord, he It is already a very hard practice.

Except for defending, the rest of the time is practiced. Holding a certain posture for a long time without moving can actually effectively improve his own strength. This is something he had never thought about before. After a while, he discovered this method.

There is no one who is more suitable for this training method than him. Lord Romon said that even his good friend, Lord Farfell, cannot use this method of training. Only he can be so tolerant and tenacious.

He is very happy, he is the only one in a certain way, and he works harder.

As he practiced again and again, sure enough, he felt that in battle, every move he made became accurate, steady, and ruthless. That feeling of stability took a long time to hone, and he have.

This is not only for the cultivation and attention of the adults, but more importantly, it is also for the position of the knight.

Lu Xiupei now has the level of a fourth-level fighter, and he is only one step away from the fifth level. This step is the gap between heaven and earth. Although after the disaster, even if he is promoted to the fifth level, it is difficult to become a knight without merit. We can only seal the position of "Apprentice Knight" first.

Maybe after decades of long-term service, let the lord appreciate it, or improve to the eleventh level, it is still possible to become an official knight, this is the direction of efforts.

With a territory, one can truly enter the ranks of noble families.

This is the goal of all non-clergymen in this world.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiu Pei stood behind Romon and clenched his fists. (!)
