"What!" Ulrik's loud voice, even the heavy door of the reception room, could not stop its invasion.

Many maids looked at each other, wondering what was happening and why a baron in a remote area could make King Ulric unable to maintain his usual calmness.

At this time, Leo felt an uncontrollable sense of suffocation. The vast Qi energy was revealed from King Ulrik in front of him, as if every muscle of the opponent was shooting out terrible Qi.

machine!

At this time, King Ulric still had those letters, so he could easily tell whether they were genuine or not. He did not expect that the small nobles in remote areas would actually get involved with the Griffin Knights.

He also let the Griffin Knights establish a base there. In fact, King Ulric would not take the strength of those small nobles seriously, but as a nobleman, he gave up his glory and did such treasonous things.

It made him angry.

"Eh... this is... Canton?" Ulric finally found the burnt letter with only a corner left, and barely made out the family emblem and surname on it, and couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Yes, the Canton family is also a baronial lord family nearby. The former head of the Canton family, Baron Wood, once had friction with me." Leo did not hide this. After all, the other party is the king of the Lion Realm.

, will not have its own intelligence channels.

If it is deliberately concealed, it will inevitably make people suspicious.

Fortunately, Leo obviously made the right choice. King Ulric had a bit of goodwill in his eyes, but when he looked at the letter again, he frowned again.

"How much do you know about Wood Canton and the Canton family?" King Ulric asked with a frown, his eyes flashing with thought.

Seeing King Ulric's performance, Leo instantly broke all his original thoughts and said after careful consideration, "I don't know much about him.

I just know that Wood once served in the River City. After the old baron passed away after he reached the fourth level of cultivation, he returned to the Canton family to take over as the family patriarch and was granted the title of baron. He was a glorious nobleman of about the fourth level and very ambitious.

As for the Canton family, they are not easy to get along with. I heard that there are various factions in it, and Wood can't convince the public, so he wants to quickly increase his prestige and makes a bet with me. He never wants to lose to me.

, if Liuhong Village is lost, life will not be very easy."

"Well," Ulric didn't care about the image at all, lying lazily on a large and exaggerated recliner, his eyelids were half closed, and then a ray of light shone in his eyes, "The training base of the Griffin Knights.

Presumably there must be a lot of strength inside, right? With an ordinary barony, I’m afraid it would be difficult to win, right?”

"Your Majesty, there was a gryphon attendant at the training base at that time, but he was seriously injured. Judging from the injury, he should have been injured by the Silvermist Ranger," Leo had obviously prepared his words in advance, with a bit of bitterness on his face.

, "But even if he could barely get out of bed, just two sword energy caused heavy casualties to our Fiery Lion Realm infantry."

"Hmph, I have to say that the ignorant are fearless. The gryphon attendants are also the elite of the knights. You lead a group of fierce lion infantry and deliver food to the other party. Fortunately, you are quite lucky." Ulrik muttered.

Li Ao didn't care about Leo's embarrassment at all.

"But what do those Silver Mist Rangers want to do when they come to you?" Ulric seemed to have thought of something, and muttered again, frowning tightly, "And the Canton family, it's weird..."

This... Leo forcibly suppressed his heartbeat that was about to accelerate. There seemed to be something special about the Canton family?

"That's all," King Ulric shook his head slightly and looked at Leo again, "Baron Leo, you really gave me a big surprise. Tell me, what do you want from me?

What reward?”

"Your Majesty, this is what I should do," Leo replied respectfully, "My Lanxia Village already has enough households. If you can allow it to be built into a city, I think Akmon

The increased strength of the German Barony will play a small role in your rule.

My ancestors once fought for His Majesty Alfred during the Blood Disaster. After the Battle of Lion City, the Archimonde family has since served the Silver Throne and has become the most loyal lord of the Kingdom of Lion Realm. I, Li

Al Archimonde is also willing to follow the example of his ancestors and do his best for your rule."

"Hahahaha... very good," King Ulric stepped forward and patted Leo heavily on the shoulder, "You are still the first lord to say that he wants to build a city for himself. You are much better than those hypocrites.

.

I like your temperament. It's like a city. Although there are only a few giant cities in the Lion Territory, there are also many ordinary small cities, and one more like you is not much.

Leo Archimonde is sealed."

Leo hurriedly performed the standard etiquette of accepting an award. Fortunately, the status of nobles was still very high. Even when they saw the king, they did not need to kneel down, otherwise they would be very depressed.

"Leo Archimonde is loyal and capable, and has made great contributions by offering treasures. He has been promoted to count and allowed to build a city within his territory." King Ulric is really very arrogant, and he just presented treasures like this.

For no reason other than the big stage, Leo's title was raised.

this……

Leo was a little surprised subconsciously, but he immediately realized the situation and hurriedly accepted the title respectfully to thank him.

"Very well, Count Leo. The most important thing for a noble is to have the ability to remain calm," King Ulric said with approval, although his own words and deeds did not conform to the so-called noble etiquette.

"If you have nothing to do, I'm going to take a look at the little things raised in my yard. I guess you, Count Leo, won't be very interested in them." King Ulric said lightly.

Leo naturally understood that it was time for him to leave. When he was walking on the night road of the palace, the cold wind blew by, and Leo just realized that he had been sweating a little unknowingly. This trip seemed a bit reckless.

In the memory of these rural nobles, the king was just a member of the nobles. Even if he was respected in his heart, he did not have the authority of the ancient feudal dynasty in his previous life. Leo was also quite confident in using tricks, thinking

To show off.

But when he saw it today, he suddenly realized how ridiculous the perspective of those small nobles was. In the towering continent of Pandor, countless forces were surging undercurrents, but the Lion Realm was able to dominate the central place. It was obvious what kind of background it had.

As a king, King Ulric is able to control such terrifying strength. He must not be underestimated. I was a little hasty before.

Along the way, Leo kept thinking about everything today. Fortunately, his adaptability was considered appropriate and he did not say anything to the Canton family. King Ulric was still satisfied with his performance.

count……

However, this earl will also be promoted to a noble rank. After all, the territory is still so large, and the actual benefits are not too high, but it is already a big reward. That is, this King Ulric, in the dynasty

Shang Shang has a strong voice, is moody and even has the vague title of tyrant.

But there are also advantages to this. Once you satisfy the opponent's appetite, you can even directly reward him regardless of common sense. If you change it to a wise king, that is something you don't have to think about, and there is also the permission to build the city.

Not just anyone can build a city. It needs to be registered in the dynasty and get permission from the city management department of the kingdom. Of course, since King Ulrik has spoken, all this is not a problem.

He offered a Glazed Lion and his contribution to annihilating the training base of the Griffin Knights. In exchange for these rewards, he also made a full bet.

"Lord Leo," a rather shrill voice came from the other side. Leo turned around and saw that it was the palace attendant.

"Lord Hu Te, but what else does your Majesty have to say?" Leo was also quite respectful. He had seen the other party's strength before, and he was also King Ulric's palace attendant. Such a person was the one in his previous life.

The chief eunuch and his ilk are quite terrifying.

"Lord Leo, don't say that. I am an old servant, how can I be called a lord," Hu Te's servant said in surprise. Although his status was considered extraordinary, in the eyes of the nobles, he was still

Those who are not ranked, "It is His Majesty's request. It is best not to leak the matters you reported to Mr. Leo today. He will naturally make arrangements."

"Ah?" Leo was stunned. King Ulric seemed to have other plans, but he respectfully said to Attendant Hut, "Thanks for the tip, Leo knows."

"Lord Leo, please go slowly," Hu Te's attendant's attitude was also a bit friendly.

…

The next morning, there was also a small commotion in the entire royal capital. Baron Leo Archimonde, who came to the royal capital to present treasures, made His Majesty feel very good. He was promoted to the title of earl and allowed to live in his own territory.

Built the city.

That's the title of earl, and it's just because of offering treasures?

For a while, many nobles even spread some words, but fortunately, Leo's territory was still the original size, which barely calmed the mood of many nobles.

At the same time, everyone also felt deeply helpless because of King Ulric's arbitrary temper.

Any king who can listen to what he says will not be promoted to Leo's title so easily. Unfortunately, the promotion of noble titles can be decided by the king with just one word.

And the head of the City Management Department is His Majesty's confidant. Even if everyone is dissatisfied and can't even put forward any opinions, they are naturally quite helpless.

However, Leo also got a rather ironic title from this, "Earl Xianbao."

This, of course, is not a good reputation.
