Chapter 53: Define the area and hold a meeting

Baird came to the hall, bowed and saluted, and reported: "My Lord, the large group of jackals was surrounded by the kingdom's army at the border and has been wiped out. But according to the intelligence my subordinates have found, this group of noble coalition forces from the province of Serop seems to be very disappointed."

"Of course they will be disappointed." Weilin said with a smile after hearing this.

Baird was a little confused, and the Lord seemed to have known everything for a long time. He was worthy of being a man favored by the goddess.

"Baird, notify others to hold a territory meeting in three days. It's time for us to expand to the west." Weilin stood up and told Baird, "In addition, go and select 20 young women. I will be useful."

"Yes, my Lord."

After hearing this, Weilin nodded, and after Baird left, he returned to his room to rest.

The next morning, Weilin asked Baird to prepare some necessary supplies, and asked Raymondo to take out half of the things harvested from the jackals, load them on the carriage, and send them together to the west 30 kilometers.

"My Lord, I don't understand." Raymondo came to Weilin and confided his thoughts, wanting to find an answer.

"Those things are valuable, but they were unexpected. They were originally seized by Ms. Anasta. We are lucky to get half of them." Weilin felt the cold breath behind him and explained to Raymondo.

Standing not far from the convoy, Xia listened to the words of the noble boy, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, but he did not speak.

"Madam, good morning."

Weilin turned around appropriately, found Xia, and bowed.

"Hello, Weilin, since you are ready, let's go."

"Yes."

Under Weilin's order, a squadron of soldiers escorted twelve carriages loaded with various supplies, as well as twenty carefully selected beautiful female serfs, to the Silver Ice area thirty kilometers away-the name Weilin specially set up for these thirty square kilometers.

An hour later, Weilin arrived at a hill two kilometers to the left of the entrance to the Underdark. There was a river of moderate size around it, which could be used as a water source for the Silver Ice Area.

"Not bad."

Xia commented, and then mobilized the magic power in his body to drive the magic power around him to move closer to here.

Weilin stood aside, watching the water gathered from all around. Under the operation of the legendary magician, from nothing to something, in just half an hour, a castle made of ice was formed.

The surroundings were covered with ice and snow, and all the plants turned into tiny ice crystals under the erosion of the ice breath.

Others looked at the scene that seemed like a miracle and stood there blankly.

"Velin, this is my future residence. You can come to me for help at any time. I will fulfill the contract."

"Yes, ma'am." Weilin responded respectfully, and then pointed to the twenty female serfs who were a little pretty, and then said, "Ma'am, this is the servant I gave you. I hope you will accept it."

Xia turned around, stretched out his right hand, and a magic circle enveloped the twenty female serfs, and declared majestically: "Are you willing to be my ice servants?"

"Yes." The twenty female serfs answered in unison.

As soon as the voice fell, the magic circle started, covering the twenty people.

After a few minutes, the magic light dissipated, and the twenty female serfs wearing coarse cloth disappeared. Instead, there were twenty people with azure skin, the main part of which was covered with ice, which served as clothes. There were two pairs of translucent wings behind them, and tentacles on their heads that had not yet grown. Even their appearance changed a lot.

As for strength, according to Weilin's perception, the former ordinary human has now reached the mid-level bronze level and is still growing.

Twenty unknown creatures opened their eyes, knelt on the ground, bowed to Xia, and said respectfully: "Meet the master."

Xia saw Weilin's doubts and explained with a smile: "They are no longer human, you can call them ice elves."

Weilin closed his mouth and said in shock: "Sir, your ability, it..."

"Don't worry, I know what you are afraid of." Xia waved Weilin's words and interrupted Weilin, and then explained, "There are many restrictions to transforming into an ice servant. I didn't expect this transformation to be so thorough, and there was no distortion. Maybe it's thanks to you."

"I..."

Weilin looked at Xia's smile and was a little confused.

"This is my contractor. From now on, as long as he comes, you can't stop him."

"Yes, master." Twenty ice elves answered.

Finally, Xia took out a token from his chest and gave it to Weilin: "This is a token. When necessary, it can block the following three attacks from the legend for you, and at the same time deter some people with ulterior motives. This is the reward for these things."

"Thank you, ma'am."

Feeling the residual warmth on the token, Weilin did not pretend and thanked him directly.

Afterwards, Weilin said goodbye to Xia and returned to the Lake of Praying Stars with Baird and his party.

On the way back, Raymondo looked at Weilin with admiration and said excitedly: "Master, you are really far-sighted. You can get a treasure by using these things."

"Hahaha, it's not a loss this time."

Bailde on the side was confused and looked at his master and Raymondo in confusion. He didn't understand the whole story. He couldn't figure out why this happened.

Two days later, in the castle hall, fourteen low-level silver knights took their seats in turn according to their respective identities and status.

Wein watched everyone arrive and called a meeting directly.

"So far, we have 4,000 people, 500 troops, 83 knight attendants, and 15 silver knights. With sufficient food, ample weapons, a stable base, and the protection of strong people, it is the right time to expand the territory."

"Within a year, we must not only develop and utilize all the 150 square kilometers of land in Qixing Lake, but also continue to expand the territory. And establish a buffer zone on the periphery to leave enough space."

After hearing this, the other 14 silver knights understood the purpose of their lord.

Last time the territory was first built, they could discard those unnecessary things and preserve the living force.

But as the territory expands, they can't repeat this action every time, so they must keep the enemy outside the territory to reduce losses.

"My lord, I don't know how much land we need to open up this time and how big a buffer zone we need to build." Baird looked at Weilin and said.

Weilin looked around and said directly: "With the Praying Star Lake as the center, we will open up at least 200 square kilometers of land to the west and establish a 20-kilometer-long buffer zone."

At this point, Weilin stopped, took out two pieces of parchment, handed them to Baird and Orlando respectively, and asked them to pass them down in turn.

Seeing that the lord did not speak, the others began to discuss in a low voice.

Ten minutes later, after everyone had read the contents of the parchment, Weilin continued: "There will be progress only if there is competition."

"I decided to divide the two departments of development and construction and give them equal resources. After a year, the team that has made greater achievements in the Praying Star Lake and the newly developed area will be awarded six low-level magic crystals, a mithril dagger, three sets of excellent knight armor, three excellent knight swords and a seven-color life flower."
