Chapter 225 Rest I
"So...all of this is a conspiracy by the cunning fox, not only for looting, but also for gaining the only right to rule in the depths of the snowy forest—the Hammer of Riot died at the very beginning..."
The archduke's swordsman listened to Dean's report, and after pondering for a moment, his face was full of surprise.
Apparently, even the Grand Duke's sword master didn't expect things to turn out like this.
"Sly fox, it really is a cunning fox!"
In the end, the archduke's sword master commented like this.
"However, everything is over... I think we can find a place to rest and wait for Richard!"
Seeing Baron Till's lady running towards him with a cotton cloak in his arms, Dean couldn't help but shrugged.
The archduke's swordsman smiled softly, turned around and walked in the direction of Baron Tire - although she doesn't like men, she will definitely not stop other women from liking men.
The lady of the baron's family bent down to salute the archduke's swordsman who passed by - if it was a skirt, it would naturally be a skirt ceremony, but at this time, the lady of the baron's family who was wearing leather armor and leather pants could not do it .
"Go!"
The Grand Duke's swordsman said in an encouraging tone.
"Ok!"
The lady from Baron Till's family nodded and ran towards Dean at a faster speed.
"thanks!"
Putting on the cotton cloak, Dean thanked him very politely, and then, without waiting for the lady of the baron's family to answer, he continued to ask, "Is there a big loss?"
"More than half of the people were injured, and there were more than 30 people who were seriously injured. The number of dead... is also the same number!"
A look of sadness appeared on the face of the baroness lady.
"I'll help with that!"
Dean said so. Then. I fell silent.
And in such an atmosphere, the young lady of the baron's family was obviously not in the mood to say something, and the two of them just remained silent.
but,
Dean glanced at his harvest——
[xp: 2416]
After upgrading [Dragon Sword Art] to lv5, Dean's remaining xp was 1123, and after fighting with two lines of defense, his xp suddenly increased by about 1300 again, one of which was the contribution of those great knights. The other is that the quality of ordinary enemies is also quite high, basically maintaining around 3-4xp.
Of course, what is more important is Dean's current level.
"Sure enough, after a certain amount of accumulation, controlling the level to obtain xp is the best way. It's far from being as busy as I was in my previous life, and ultimately achieving nothing!"
Dean thought to himself.
"The control of levels, before the Blood Moon War, if there are no special circumstances, there is no need to let go; these xp should be invested in the secret art of body forging. Or some secrets-however, compared to the secret of body forging The secret is obviously more difficult to obtain, and I was able to obtain [Dragon Sword Art] because of a coincidence. If I want to obtain other secrets again, the difficulty of it..."
A wry smile appeared in his heart, and Dean once again began to plan his future journey.
Although in the application of skills, he has Jade and Gaosai's [Military Swordsmanship], but this is the same as Jadeite's and Gaosai's [Body Forging], and they are the most low-level secrets in various teams. There are quite restrictions-although high-level secrets are the same, but their power is different.
Just like Higgs of the God Religion, he can use [Cross Sword Art] at the knight level, which makes him far beyond ordinary knights, even some great knights, if they don’t pay attention, they will suffer a big loss .
This shows the importance of secrets such as swordsmanship.
However, relatively, such an important secret is even more rare than the body forging secret.
Or, just like their suffix: secret biography.
It can only be passed on secretly and rarely.
"Even if there is Kimpton, such a secret, it still depends on luck..."
Finally, Dean sighed slightly.
This time, he didn't want to ask Grand Duke Jade for anything. After all, Grand Duke Jade's secret swordsmanship is the inheritance of the Jade Royal Family: [Gap Swordsmanship] and advanced [Hurricane Swordsmanship].
Just like the [Dragon Sword Technique] he knew, it has always been the secret of the Gaosai royal family's advancement.
It is obviously inappropriate to do so when it involves the inheritance of the royal family.
Of course, some big families also have secret traditions, just like body forging secrets.
For example: Emerald Another well-known veteran gold powerhouse: the Marquess of York.
However, it is obviously a fantasy to obtain the secrets of the opponent's family and the secret art of body training from this stubborn old Marquis.
"Let's start with the secret technique of body forging now! Don't worry about the secret transmission, it needs to be done step by step!"
Dean took a deep breath and looked into the distance.
There were already crowds of people there, obviously, people from the Northern Knights had rushed over.
Moreover, they were not without gains. Looking at the head on the waist, Dean couldn't help smiling—the reason for Richard Vauban's late arrival was clear at a glance.
"Catch up?"
Dean asked with a smile.
"Part of it, and part of it entered the snowfield jungle... I really want to have a map of the snowfield jungle!"
Richard shook his head, with regret on his face, and the meaning in his words was self-evident.
If there is a map of the snowy forest, he can continue to hunt down those bandits instead of retreating.
However, this is not a simple matter, not only bandits, but also barbarians, and even the latter is the most important thing.
After all, if one is not good, it will cause misunderstandings on both sides, and if it is more intense, it will be an inevitable war.
The strength of the barbarians is definitely not something that Vauban County can resist.
"That's something that needs to be done step by step!"
Dean patted the other party's shoulder, nodded to the baron's lady next to him, and walked towards Baron Till.
The baron's lady subconsciously wanted to follow. but. Then she stopped—she knew it. At this time, she is not able to participate.
After all, this was a formal post-war meeting—
Only representatives from the three parties of Tyreland, Zelgonland, and Vauban City can appear, and they can bring their own staff, but they are definitely not relatives.
Even if her father loves her very much, she will not allow her to act recklessly.
This is related to the face of the nobility.
And she, the young lady of the baron's family, absolutely did not want her father to be ashamed.
"It doesn't seem to be going well!"
The archduke's swordsman came over—representing the Emerald Grand Duke. Although such a meeting is between the local lord and the county king, the Grand Duke's swordsman is naturally qualified to participate.
However, the sword master refused.
Some meetings she doesn't like.
"Yes, teacher!"
The lady of the baron's family nodded in frustration.
Such a title was not requested by the Grand Duke's swordsman, but by the baron's lady herself. However, the Grand Duke's swordsman did not object.
"Everything takes time! And I just experienced a real combat... I want to know more if you have made any progress?"
The archduke's swordsman said. He walked to the side, where the surrounding sight could not be reached.
The baron's lady. Immediately followed quickly.
...
Behind the 'Ice Castle', a temporary meeting room was set up in a place sheltered from the wind.
Inside the felt tent, the charcoal brazier emits enough heat, and the thick three-layer felt cloth completely insulates the cold air.
As the lord of the Territory of Tyre, Baron Tire sat in the main seat, the Knights of the Northland represented the Marquis of Vauban, Richard sat on the left hand position, and Dean sat on the right, which belonged to the last position.
However, Dean himself didn't care at all.
His eyes were looking at the list in front of him—the list of casualties.
According to the joint statistics of Baron Tire's staff and his deputy Huck, the Knights of the Northland are not here; Scratch, after all, they encountered a group of bandits desperate for their lives.
"Thirty-nine people were seriously injured in Tilling, forty-three people were killed, and one hundred and sixty people were slightly injured..."
Looking at this list of casualties, it is obviously much more detailed than the general statement made by Miss Baroness; however, Dean is more aware of the difficulty of the previous battle in Tilling.
After all, there were only about three hundred of them.
In other words, except for a small number of people, basically everyone was injured.
And this is really different from Zelgon's leader, whose casualties are almost negligible.
"I am willing to bear the casualties of Tyrland!"
Dean handed back the casualty list to Baron Tyre, and said seriously at the same time.
"How is this possible? These are the people of my Territory, not Zelgon's..."
Immediately, Baron Tire shook his head again and again.
"We are allies, and I should be like this at this time, just like you did before—afterwards, I will let Huck send the pension!"
Dean winked at Ikos while talking, stood up and bowed to the Marquis of Vauban represented by Richard, "Richard, please convey our best agreement to the Marquis of Vauban!"
"Okay, okay, I will tell you the truth!"
Richard replied a little silly.
This is the end?
Shouldn't it be a matter of arguing back and forth for the spoils and pensions, spending three to five days, and eventually the patience is almost exhausted, is there any result?
Recalling the several post-war meetings he had attended before, Richard was a little confused.
And looking at Dean who walked out, Baron Till didn't even think about it, he stood up and wanted to chase after him, but he was hugged tightly by his staff——
"Master Baron!"
Ikos hugged his lord tightly, and then his heart turned rapidly, looking for a reason to persuade Baron Till.
"We are allies. Dean is willing to help us because you are also willing to help Dean, my lord—this is mutual..."
"But that's not the reason we accept it!"
"We can compensate Dean in other ways!"
"Other aspects? Well... loot, yes, we only need 30% of the loot, no, 20% is enough!"
Baron Till was taken aback, and after thinking for a moment, he said loudly.
Immediately, holding Baron Tire's staff, he smiled wryly once.
Richard on the side was a little dazed again.
