After Kaios moved to Valley City, he naturally wanted to build a new manor for himself.

He did not buy a ready-made manor, and in fact, there was indeed nothing suitable for it.

Most of the lords whose main industries are not here in Valley City and whose registered place of lordship is not here will not spend a lot of effort to build a manor where they do not live permanently. What's more, within the jurisdiction of Valley City, everything is outside the city.

Every manor in the country is at risk of being attacked by Western forces, and it will cost a lot to build a defense system.

Most defense systems are related to magic circles and magic devices. These things are not a one-time investment. Whether it is maintenance or activation, they require continuous consumption. The higher the price, the more powerful the defense system. The consumption of maintenance and activation is usually

The bigger the city is, there is no need to invest so much in a place where you don’t live regularly.

Therefore, those big lords whose main assets are not registered in Valley City, even if they occasionally come to Valley City and need a place to live, they will choose to live in the city. In this way, the guard and security aspects can be left to Shengyou Palace and they can also enjoy

More basic services.

Moreover, the inner city space of Valley City is much larger than other core main cities, and the land and housing prices are relatively cheaper, which is more cost-effective than building a manor outside.

As for the local lords, they naturally built their own manors, and they generally built them with great care, so under normal circumstances, these manors rarely changed hands and circulated.

Of course, if you give enough magic coupons, you won't be able to buy it.

Kaios, who now has a lot of magic coupons on hand, can actually afford the price.

But Kaios’s requirements are relatively high. If it’s just a requirement for luxurious external decoration, it would be easier to modify, add on, and transform based on other people’s existing buildings. But Kaios’s requirements are not those external ones.

Luxury is about the functionality inside, and many of them directly affect the entire building structure.

When he was at Beishan Manor in Yulang City, in the past two years, Kaios often felt that the restrictions of Beishan Manor made it impossible to realize many of his ideas.

Now that he had the opportunity to rebuild a manor, Kaios naturally wanted to realize his ideas and leave enough room for future "expansion".

Therefore, although he had purchased the territory to build the manor in advance, and had sent people over in advance to carry out planning and design, and had found people to organize the construction in advance, after Kaios arrived in Valley City with a large number of citizens, his new manor

The main building is still a long way from completion.

Kaios had already anticipated this, so he simply built two three-story buildings nearby for him and his contracted servants to live temporarily.

Anyway, he doesn't have high requirements for living conditions, and he's used to living in tents along the way. What's more, with the butler Pete and the group of indentured servants around, the minimum living standard for him is very high.

Therefore, Kaios is not in a hurry for the construction of the main building of the new manor. In the early stage, he must follow his design requirements and strive for excellence. The responsible construction team and those magicians can temporarily stop work at any time if they have any new ideas.

, come and report to him.

Of course, the protective circle and the border protection wall of the manor must be taken care of first.

At this time, Kaios was in the temporary study room on the first floor of the simple three-story building, meeting an "old friend" who had just traveled to the west a few months ago.

…

Standing in front of the large desk, Liao Pu looked a little nervous with his head slightly lowered.

A few months ago, he was still the indentured servant of Count Garret, but after losing a battle that he thought had no suspense and was sure to win, he became a prisoner of Kaios and was even singled out by Kaios.

The party canceled the soul's subordination contract and sent it to the western border.

Unilaterally canceling the soul's subordination contract was a taboo act against Shengyou Palace, but Liao Pu didn't even have the slightest idea of ​​informing Shengyou Palace because Kaios had allowed him to experience his soul being torn apart and that kind of thing.

The feeling of a curse coming on.

He knew that this Baron of Kaios was a terrifying black magician who could play with souls. If he had any thoughts of betrayal, he would definitely die miserably - even death would be better than a state where his soul was tortured.

He actually didn’t know why Kaios asked him and the other two contracted servants of Count Garret to go to the western border. Kaios just let them "live" without specifying what they wanted to do or what they wanted to achieve.

What goal, what purpose.

Just "survive" may be a bit of a challenge for ordinary people in the Holy Blessing Alliance, but for the three high-level powerhouses, it is really not a problem, not to mention that Kaios has even prepared their false identities.

It solves the most troublesome problems they may face and allows them to give reasonable reasons for coming to the Western Border to the people they meet.

During this time, the other two contracted servants of Count Garret have joined different forces in the Western Region and are doing well - not only because of their high-level strength, but also because of the recent arrivals from the Holy Blessing Alliance.

, can bring more information about the Holy Blessing Alliance, which is very useful to many forces.

However, Liao Pu did not join any force. He accepted some commissions in his personal capacity and relied on two companions to vouch for him in different forces, allowing him to move among various forces and even have close contacts with the Vali City side.

A lord got on the line and acted as a middleman and broker, and it can be said that he had a prosperous life.

He had just heard that a lord from the Holy Blessing Alliance was moving westward with hundreds of thousands of people, and when he was about to take root in Valley City, he still found it a bit strange. He was wondering if the Holy Blessing Palace had a new city-building plan.

Another main city is to be built near Vali City.

But when he later learned through the news channels in Vali City that the lord was Baron Kaios Li from Yulang City, his heartbeat began to accelerate and he held his breath, feeling like "the mission is calling"

Feel.

He originally thought that judging from the tone of Kaios' previous explanation to the three of them, it would be three to five years before they were asked to start doing anything. However, he did not expect that in just a few months, Kaios would directly

Arriving at the Western Border!

And they didn't just come and take a look and then leave. They moved all the people here directly. It was obvious that they wanted to stay in the western border permanently and do something special.

The person who told him the news said that Kaios came to Vali City because he was on good terms with Pander, the presiding judge of Vali City, and also annoyed Chimalet, the presiding judge of Yulang City, and had an affair with the Marquis of Steel Heart.

They were at odds with each other, so they had to run away to Valley City.

However, Liao Pu, who came to the western border at the request of Kaios a few months ago, firmly believed that Kaios's coming to Valley City was definitely planned in advance!

Especially two days ago, he got news from the Luofu Tower Underground Palace. Not long after Kaios left, a melee broke out in Yulang City with the direct participation of Shengyou Palace and involving many marquises. So far, there has been no

Stop.

It's not such a coincidence, this must be Kaios's handiwork!

Thinking of Rudy, the core member of the "Holy Law Church" who was wanted throughout the Holy Blessing Palace and whom he saw in Satin Castle, Liao Pu knew that there must be a very deep entanglement between Kaios and the Western Realm.

The black magician is from the Western Border.

When he comes to Valley City, he will definitely be able to easily reach into the western border.

Coupled with his own relationship with Judge Pande, it is equivalent to straddling two major camps in the Western Border, and he can enjoy both.

Liao Pu has vaguely seen the rise of a king of the Western Realm...

Therefore, after Liao Pu found out the location of Kaios's temporary manor, he quickly sneaked back to the jurisdiction of Valley City, approached the temporary manor of Kaios, and found a hidden place to hide.

Kaios had told him before that if he came within one kilometer, Kaios would know that he was coming and would take the initiative to send people to find him.

Sure enough, in less than an hour, Salveira led a team of spiritual warriors to escort several ox carts out of the temporary manor. Then Liao Pu, who got Salvela's signal, immediately sneaked into the ox carts in the team.

During the trip, I took a tour with the motorcade and returned to the temporary manor.

After it was verified that Kaios could really detect his presence and know his location within one kilometer, Liao Pu's fear of Kaios deepened in his heart, and he was even more grateful that he had not taken risks before.

Kaios was quite surprised to see Liao Pu.

He didn't expect that Liao Pu would come to him as soon as he arrived in Valley City.

After listening to Liao Pu's introduction to the situation of him and the other two prisoners in the western border, Kaios was even more surprised. The development of the three of them was so unexpected, especially Liao Pu.

Yue, excluding the time spent on the road and the initial adaptation time, he actually didn’t stay in the Western Border for long, but he has already mixed up with many forces and lords in the Western Border and Valley City, and has completed several commissions.

, the broker who concluded several deals was a bit ridiculously fast.

However, after listening to Liao Pu's detailed description of his career in the Western Territory, Kaios also realized that the reason why he was able to get involved so quickly was because both the various forces in the Western Territory and Vali City did have needs in this regard.

.

It has not been a few decades since the establishment of Vali City. It stands to reason that if this kind of demand existed, a relatively stable communication and contact channel should have been established long ago. How could it be so easy for a newcomer like Liao Pu?

Just stand firm.

I heard that Liao Pu’s biggest client in Valley City and an important source of information turned out to be Count Simmons, who was the only one who had a glowing eye on him at yesterday’s cocktail party. Moreover, Simmons has many people in the western border who are in contact with different forces and doing business.

The middleman, Kaios, suddenly understood why this native earl of Valley City had so much red halo on the back of his head.

Obviously, Count Simmons has found an effective means of trading among the various forces in the western border, reached a stable balance, and has considerable interests in it.

There are various special environments in the Western Border, which can produce many highly valuable magic materials, various unrestricted magic alchemy directions, and can also produce some products that have a market in the Holy Blessing Alliance but are not allowed to be developed or developed.

Objects, so reselling these things can make a lot of money.

At the same time, many of the products produced by the Holy Blessing Alliance are also needed by the Western Region, or the price difference between the two sides is huge, leaving a huge profit margin.

Count Simmons is probably worried that Kaios, a great lord who has a very good relationship with Judge Pende and brings so many people and so many projects, may greatly change the relationship between Valley City and the various forces in the Western Border.

The steady state and order will be disrupted and rebuilt, thus affecting his interests.

If Simmons really thinks so, then Kaios can only say...

He was indeed worried.

Keoslyop stayed in the temporary manor all night, and early the next morning he was allowed to hide in an oxcart escorted by Salvera and a group of people and go out back to the western border.

After receiving the explanation and some promises from Kaios, Liao Pu became more firm in his previous judgment - Baron Kaios definitely has a deep understanding of the Western Border and must have other back-ups to come to Vali this time.

The decision to build a city must have been made a long time ago, and there must be a very big plan!

He is also full of confidence in his future!

Maybe, after Kaios unifies the western realm, he can become a lord with his own territory and contracted servants!

Kaios didn't know that Liao Pu had such a "great plan" and "bright future" in his mind, but that night, the aperture behind Liao Pu's head did change very obviously.

When I just met Liao Pu yesterday afternoon and hadn’t chatted with him yet, Liao Pu’s aperture was the second strangest I’d seen since Kaios’ time travel—even Salveira’s pink aperture was only behind him.
To be continued...
