Edge of the Apocalypse -
Chapter 935: Collision Plate
It was cold and snowy in winter, but it was already the end of winter. In addition, the Academy Master had attendant students who cleaned it every day, so it was considered clean.
Today, the sun was blazing without snow, and the sky was sparkling and translucent. Everything was washed away, and there was only one color left in heaven and earth. No spring, no summer, no autumn, but winter is simple and plain.
There weren't many pedestrians on the main road, so the three of them walked along the road. The man who looked like a bodyguard took a deep breath and pointed to a row of seedlings on the roadside. "Edward originally wanted to directly plant the ten-year-old mountain snow cypress, so that the academy would be green even in winter. However, Long calculated for him that if he used the Silver Cinnamon Tree Seedlings instead of the Snow Cypress, he would save 200,000 gold coins alone. And now it was the end of winter, even though the sun was blazing above his head, he did not feel the heat. On the contrary, the cedar tree's large shade of light would make the main path look gloomy. It would be better to plant these seedlings. Once winter is over, spring will come and take out branches and leaves. In summer, even at the end of the green shade, you can still block the blazing sun. "Eventually, Edward adopted Dragon's suggestion and asked him to take a look at the academy's expenditure. He saved more than two million gold coins by adding up the items."
"As for Long Ne, he is a prudent person. Having such a person in charge of the rear is quite reassuring."
The blonde girl smiled sweetly and said, "You and Edward can be called far-sighted, but you two have a problem. If you look too high, you ignore the things beneath the tall building. A person like Dragon can help you find out what's missing."
"Thank you for your praise, Your Highness." The man bowed seriously, causing the girl to chuckle.
The girl said, "I didn't mean to compliment you, but it's true." I've seen too many examples of fighting for land, food, and talent. To be honest, it's not impossible to nurture a battle by fighting. Especially in the early stages of the war, this strategy of snatching everything could maximize the strength of one's own forces, just like rolling snowballs. But the drawbacks were equally obvious, like a snowball rolling over. The snowball was big, but it was wrapped in snow? "Not necessarily?"
"Robbed territory, food, wealth these are good. After all, they were dead creatures. Even if they were soldiers who had stolen them, they could simply be coerced and lured. Generally speaking, as long as this lord wasn't too bastard, for the soldiers, it wasn't desperate to fight for their lives. As long as he could earn military merit points, he would go all out. However, those who are truly capable of influencing the development of the territory's forces are different. Perhaps they were snatched away by you for a while and have no choice but to serve you. However, it was not a long-term plan. After a long time, people's hearts would change. Whether the lord is trying his best to win the loyalty of these people, or simply coercion and temptation, it won't be very effective. "
"The former may win the title of prudent master, but it is hard to say how many people can be captured. The smarter a person is, the harder it will be to gain their loyalty. As for the latter, it may be even more miserable, but who can say for sure that he will not lie to you in the future?" The girl said sincerely, "Talent is the cornerstone, and the cornerstone is naturally the sooner the better." The cornerstone he had nurtured was naturally more reliable than the one he had stolen. Knowing the root of the problem, one could decide which ones could be reused and which ones could be left idle. So you have Dawn Academy, and the empire has several war academies. "In the end, we are doing a good job in the talent pool."
The young man sighed, "I don't have much foresight. I'm just learning from it." At that time, in Storm City, he thought of another way to raise troops and recruit, and started to work together with Edward on an academy. After that, the results of the water test were quite good, which was why there was the current glory. Don't look at the scenery on the surface of this academy, it was all my possessions that smashed into this place. In case the door closes in a few years, I'll have to hold on to His Highness's thigh in the future so that I can ask your father for a job that doesn't lack fat and water. "
The girl rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's better to hug me than Charlotte. She is the most precious treasure of the royal family. Me? I have many brothers and sisters, so don't expect him to treat me like a treasure."
The man smiled without saying a word.
At this moment, the horse hissed from behind the main road, and the sound of hooves was like thunder. The young man frowned. The cloaked woman who was walking at the back extended her hand to lightly support the sword behind her. The man shook his head before she retracted her hand.
The four riders swept over like the wind.
All of them were young men. The first rider was about fifteen or sixteen years old. With a face full of pockmarks, he naturally couldn't be said to be very good-looking. The silver-haired man shook his head as his hair turned yellow and his eyes turned green. This was the most precious time in a person's life, when his vitality was supposed to flourish, but because he was too stained with alcohol, he seemed to have aged first.
This failure was not only on the surface, but also on the bones. From the looks of it, the young man who didn't have much ability was able to gallop around the academy, probably thanks to the shadow of the clan behind him. The silver-haired man gently pulled the golden-haired girl, and the three of them moved sideways to give way to their riders. Immediately, a few young men whistled at the blonde girl. The girl smiled instead of being angry, "It seems that the academy exam is also very relaxed."
The silver-haired man nodded and said, "Indeed. Let's take advantage of this opportunity to come to the academy and take a look around. Let's see if there's anything wrong with it and find out all of them together."
Just as the blonde girl nodded and said a good word, she heard the horse hissing and exclaiming in front of her. It turned out that a few civilian students who turned into the main road from the fork of the road did not notice, and one of them was knocked to the ground. Several of his companions hurriedly checked his injuries. Fortunately, they were only able to scratch his skin. Instead, the yellow-haired youth stepped down from the horse and was shocked, knocking him to the ground. After being helped up by his companions, he aggressively walked towards the commoner students.
The silver-haired man narrowed his eyes and said, "Go take a look?"
"Whatever you want."
When the three of them approached, the withered-yellow youth pointed at the horse whip and cursed at a few commoner students. The commoner students were cursed until their faces turned green and white. The crowd gradually increased. The blonde girl pulled the silver-haired man and said, "Aren't you going to uphold justice?"
"Let's see."
"What are you looking at?"
"Let's see how those commoners react. If they dare to fight back, then I'll help them. If they don't, then I'll pretend that I didn't see them. However, after that, these horsemen won't be able to think of a better way to deal with them." The silver-haired man had a faint smile on his face.
At this moment, the yellow-haired youth wanted the person who had been hit to kneel down and apologize to him. The few commoner students were finally out of breath. "The academy clearly has a rule that all carriages and horses must be parked at the entrance of the racecourse. It makes sense for you to run around the academy and run into someone?" One of them said loudly.
The yellow-haired youth laughed coldly, "You lowly people deserve to reason with me? The rules of the academy are only for you lowly people. Do you know who I am? I'm sure you don't know, but I don't need to explain myself to you. In short, I'm reasonable here."
Suddenly, a round of applause rang out.
A silver-haired man emerged from the crowd and asked with a smile, "If they are not worthy to reason with you, how about I explain it to you?"
The youth laughed and pointed at the man with his horse whip, "Where did you come from? Don't be afraid of you with a knife on your back in the future."
The man slowly said, "My name is Allen. I am a viscount in the empire. Do you think I have the right to reason with you?"
Everyone was stunned.
Who didn't know that the Glory Light Academy was built by Baron Edward, and above Edward was a Viscount Allen. The viscount was the co-owner of a few nearby territories and was the true owner. The young silver-haired man now claimed to be Lord Alan, which made people feel suspicious in their dreams.
The yellow-and-withered youth was stunned for a moment, and then smiled sinisterly, "You are quite courageous. You actually pretend to be the head of that adult. Lord Alan has countless opportunities every day. How can he have the time to come to the academy? How dare you pretend to be an adult and see how I will teach you a lesson?"
The horse whip in his hand was pulled out.
The silver-haired man didn't even blink an eye when the cloaked woman suddenly flashed in front of him. The woman did not draw her sword, but grabbed the horse whip in her hand. After pulling back, the withered yellow youth screamed and flew towards the woman. The woman loosened her whip and grabbed him by the neck with one hand. Without turning her head, she asked, "Do you want to die or live?"
"I'm not busy. Let's throw him on the ground first. I have something to ask him."
The woman instantly threw him and the youth fell to the ground. His left leg landed on the ground first, and a crisp sound of bones cracking sounded on the spot, followed by a miserable scream. "Do you know who I am? I am the son of Judy, the Governor of Fenrir City, and I want to kill you. And these two women, I want them … Ah!" The youth shouted as he pointed at the woman and the man.
The words behind him suddenly turned into a miserable scream. The silver-haired man squatted down. An unknown number of daggers appeared in his hand. With a slash of the dagger, he cut off one of the youth's fingers. The silver-haired man wiped the blood from the dagger on the youth's collar and said indifferently, "However, a mere son of a city magistrate dares to act so presumptuously in the academy? The rules set by Edward are my words. If even my words cannot be counted, then the academy will do nothing."
"Then again, who gave you the courage to disregard the rules I set? You said you were right? Wrong, in these territories, I am the only reason."
The teenager was so painful that he almost fainted. At this moment, a tender voice sounded, "Lord Alan, why are you here?"
The crowd split up and a young teenager walked in. Everyone didn't recognize the silver-haired man, but they knew that this youth was the Lord of the Light Territory, Oz. When Oz saw Alan, he immediately knelt down on one knee and bowed. Seeing this scene, Withered Yellow's heart died like ashes.
He crashed into an iron plate, and in these territories, it was the piece that could not be harder, the piece that could not be bigger!
