LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 7 Cardero Province
After waiting for half an hour, Weilin and his party of fifteen people, eighteen red phosphorus horses, twelve buck horses, and six carriages loaded with goods entered the transmission area.
Four mages standing at the four corners of the teleportation array began to inject magic into the surrounding instruments.
A few seconds later, a large number of magic circles appeared around.
Suddenly, a white light flashed.
After an unknown period of time, Weilin felt that his vision had recovered. He looked around and saw the dilapidated scene. He already knew in his heart that this should be the provincial capital of Karod.
Compared to the busy scene in the teleportation area of the provincial capital of Xihe Province, this place seems very deserted.
After everyone recovered, Verin led the convoy and left the teleportation area.
As soon as they walked out of the hall where the teleportation array was located and came to the main street in the central city of the provincial capital of Carod, everyone was disappointed.
There was human and animal feces everywhere, and the stench was nauseating.
There are gangsters everywhere, patrol officers who are blackmailing and wordy, submissive civilians and small traders.
"Lord, this... this is the provincial capital of Carod Province. This environment is worse than even the most shabby slums in Yinxing City." Baird, the captain of the Knight Guard, said with shock and disbelief.
"Why is it so chaotic here?"
Weilin covered his mouth and nose and said with the same shock, which was completely inconsistent with the image of a province.
He really didn't expect that a provincial capital would look like this.
Or perhaps, this is the real side of the world, and cities like the provincial capital of Xihe Province and Yinxing City are exceptions.
"Lord, where are we going next?"
Hearing this, Weilin took out a map from his pocket. It was a map of the entire Karod Province. It was very simple and only marked the approximate geographical location.
Compared with the Xihe Province with an area of 950,000 square kilometers, the Carrod Province only has a mere 150,000 square kilometers, with more than 60 viscounts and barons scattered around, and a population of about 1.9 million. The eagles of House Haute Eccles lead one-third of the population.
"First go to the administrative building in the provincial capital to register, and then go visit my cousin Baron Alcott to learn about the local situation."
Looking at the Gut Territory located two hundred kilometers away from the provincial capital of Carod Province on the map, Verin closed the map and gave instructions to Baird.
Walking on the road full of feces, Weilin felt nauseous. He really didn't know how these people could live here.
The provincial capital of Cardero is very small, and it takes only ten minutes to reach Dongcheng District, where the administrative building is located.
It is said to be an administrative building, but it is actually a two-story stone house with a layer of white ink painted on the outside.
Standing at the door, no matter how he looked at it, Weilin saw that the walls were all gray, tending to get closer to black.
"Stop, you are a country bumpkin. You don't have eyes, right? Is this where you should be?"
The guard standing guard at the door saw the plainly dressed Weelin, raised the inferior spear in his hand, and said contemptuously.
"presumptuous."
Baird, who was standing behind Verin, drew out his knight's sword and prepared to kill the rude guard.
"You dare to take action." The guard took a few steps back and shouted loudly, "Come here, someone has invaded the administrative building."
Not long after, a dozen guards and a knight hurriedly ran out of the building and stood on the steps, looking at the group of people below.
Upon seeing this, the knights behind Weilin drew their swords and stood in front of him, confronting the guards here.
"Who are you? You dare to break into the administrative building." After hearing the soldier's report, the leading knight stared at the group of people with unkind eyes, took out the signal magic scroll, and was ready to launch it immediately.
"Let's not say who we are. Your guard insulted a nobleman like this. Even if I killed him on the spot, His Majesty the King would not be able to say anything." Weilin looked at the knight with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, the knight suddenly saw the flag hanging on the carriage in the distance. His face changed drastically and he stared at the guard fiercely. But now he could not leave the hotel. He represented the face of the Governor of Carod Province and could not be easily surrendered. .
"I know what you are thinking. I don't want to cause more trouble. Leave the guard to me and everything will be revealed. Otherwise, even the Governor of Cardro Province will not be able to bear the consequences."
"Your Excellency, what you said..." A rich middle-aged man came out of the administrative building. He just finished speaking. He looked at the eagle flag and swallowed the second half of the sentence. He turned to the knight and ordered: " Give the guard to the knight."
"But, Lord Governor, he..."
"Didn't you hear me?" the middle-aged man yelled loudly.
"Yes."
The knight was very unwilling, but in the face of the governor's order, he could only wave his hands and ask his subordinates to disarm the guard just now and escort him to Weilin.
Looking at the soldier in front of him, his face showed fear, and he seemed to have lost his arrogant look just now.
Verin drew his dagger, thrust it into his chest, and killed the guard in front of Governor Cadro.
"My Lord Governor, I'm offended."
"It's okay, young eagle of the Akers family, welcome to Cardero Province." The middle-aged man twitched the corners of his mouth and said in a calm tone.
After that, Weilin stayed outside the administrative building, waiting for the information registration to be completed.
About ten minutes later, a staff member held a token in both hands, with the word "development" engraved on the front and Weilin's basic information recorded on the back, and handed it to him respectfully.
"My Lord Governor, please say goodbye."
"Goodbye." The middle-aged man gave a standard aristocratic reply, but in his heart he hoped not to see him again next time.
After waiting for Weilin to leave, the knight who had remained silent asked: "Lord Governor, this is our territory, why should we be afraid of him, a son of a foreign noble?"
The middle-aged man put away the smile on his face and said in a deep voice: "It would be easier to deal with other noble children, but for the Akers family, they are a bunch of mad dogs. If you don't want to provoke them, try not to provoke them."
Looking at the knight who was still asking questions, the middle-aged man said directly: "Okay, continue to maintain vigilance. The dead guard will be compensated according to the minimum standard for those who were killed in action. In addition, tell your people to stay calm and don't cause trouble again." Disaster."
"Yes, my lord."
The knight was reluctant, but that was all he could do.
After leaving the administrative building, Weilin did not stop and took people directly out of the provincial capital of Cardro Province.
Although the governor who was exiled here did not dare to take action due to the reputation of the Akers family. But he's not afraid of ten thousand, he's afraid of the worst. He doesn't want to bet on the other person's thoughts.
As soon as he left this small town, Baird drove his horse to Verin and asked doubtfully: "My lord, why didn't you give the order and let your subordinates kill the knight and the thirteen guards together?"
"Everything has its own limits. Don't go too far, otherwise the other party will not end well. Beware of fighting us to the death."
After Baird heard this, the confusion on his face did not diminish at all. What are these!
When Weilin saw the confused captain of the knight guard, he sighed and said comfortingly: "Don't worry about these things, just concentrate on leading the troops."
"Yes, my lord."
Looking at these politically insensitive knights, Verin decided to look for an internal affairs talent in the development.
