Lord of the Scourge: Become the Demon Archduke In the Beginning

City of Glorious Moon, on top of the wooden city wall, Lauren, who was wearing an exquisite aristocratic robe, attached his right hand to the battlements, looking at the hot construction site in front of him.

He took the time to glance at the time on the system panel.

At 14:31 pm on April 29, 6120 in the Norr calendar.

There is still one and a half days until the bloody day falls.

Lauren took a deep breath.

natural disaster.

These two words are too heavy for this world.

If he is given enough time to develop, he has absolute confidence to get through it.

But the problem is that he has only traveled to this world for a total of more than 20 days.

However, although the time was short, he used this short time to recast the territory and forged a powerful army.

An army strong enough to withstand the Scourge.

Lauren felt quite accomplished about it.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the soul power on the attribute panel.

1720 points.

Barbarian berserker needs to consume 500 points of soul power to transfer to bear cavalry, and only 3 can be transferred here...

Lauren narrowed his eyes slightly and began to calculate.

At this time, Yas was leading the bear cavalry, wolf spearmen and barbarians to slaughter monsters outside to earn soul power.

At this speed, when it gets dark today, the power of the soul may reach 2000 points, and four angry bear cavalry can burst out.

Adding the original 6 heads, he will have a small team of B+ rank troops in his hand.

This power cannot be underestimated.

"My lord, the spellcaster imprisoned in the dungeon has brought..."

At this moment, the voice from the soldiers behind him interrupted Lauren's meditation.

The spellcaster brought?

With somewhat curious eyes,

Turn around slightly.

After seeing Winnie Guerra wearing a long maid dress, her eyes narrowed slightly.

The spellcaster is worthy of being a spellcaster, even though he is wearing the same clothes as the maid.

But the calmness and elegance of her body are not comparable to that of ordinary maids.

With the excellent appearance, it immediately gives people a sense of surprise.

It was as if the original owner of the clothes should be her.

If there are maids of this quality in the manor... why refuse to take a bath at night.

"Young spellcaster, why do you want to see me? Explain your purpose."

This girl is carrying two precious magic blueprints on her body, and she is also a master of the magic circle, her origin is definitely not simple.

It's just that during this time, Lauren was busy dealing with the bloody day and didn't have the energy to deal with the other party, so he kept her locked in the dungeon.

The cat-man whisperer had the same experience as this caster, and the cat-ear girl was also imprisoned by him.

Wei Ni looked at the handsome young nobleman in front of him, and was a little amazed.

If she hadn't gotten a lot of information from Del, a simple and honest young man, she would have judged that most of the policies of Huiyue City were formulated by the young boy in front of him.

She would never believe that a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy could have such outstanding abilities.

"Respected Your Excellency, the Bloody Day is our common enemy, and I am here this time to help you fight against those horrific beings.

As long as you can grant me a little freedom, I am willing to go all out. "

Although she was a prisoner, the girl's tone was still calm, without any condescension or inferiority.

Neither humble nor overbearing.

Lauren didn't respond in a hurry, but looked at this clever spellcaster with interest.

"You taught that Del's technique of laying traps?"

It's amazing to be able to show your own value through an insignificant person.

Winnie nodded, "That's right, that's just a very simple layout technique."

Very obvious?

Lauren's face froze.

Del's appearance directly improved the level of the city's layout skills by more than one level.

He decided to change the subject.

"Why do you think I will agree with you, or believe you... After all, the magic blueprint on your body is already the spoils of the City of Luna."

Lauren looked at the calm caster with burning eyes.

Winnie didn't answer in a hurry, but stepped forward, stood side by side with Lauren, and looked into the distance.

"Because, a lord who can reuse a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl as the deputy speaker of the city hall, who doesn't care whether his subordinates are slaves or not, and who has extraordinary courage, will not let me down."

Lauren couldn't help but laugh.

"You want to impress me with just a few kind words? Young spellcaster, you think too much."

Winnie turned her head to stare at him, smiling.

"My lord, I have an improved version of the production technology of the Spear of the Wind, which can speed up the production speed by 40% and increase the power by 20%.

As long as you let me join, I will provide you with more Storm Spears before the bloody day comes..."

"In addition, I noticed that there are no traces of building elemental towers around your city walls. In your territory, there should be some talent reserves for building elemental towers.

I personally presided over the construction of 20 elemental towers. If you can agree to my plea, I can help you build the elemental towers from scratch. "

After he paused for a moment, he said to himself.

"Lord, now, are you willing to hire a spellcaster who is proficient in magic circles to work for you?

The reward she wants is only freedom, unfettered freedom.

We can get along as friends..."

Lauren and Winnie looked at each other, the other's eyes were as blue as the deep sea, with calmness and determination in them.

It seemed that the girl had absolute confidence that he would agree to her terms.

Lauren's pitch-black eyes did not retreat in the slightest, looking at each other word by word.

"Spellcaster, you are very smart, as you can see from the fact that you used a humble slave to make a deal with me in the dungeon.

You are now doing business with me in the same way. "

Winnie looked at the handsome young man with an expressionless face in front of her, her heart skipped a beat, and a bad feeling rose up.

Lauren's eyes suddenly became cold.

"But, I hate deals, I hate negotiations.

There can only be one voice in this land.

You are now my captive, my personal belongings, you have no right to negotiate with me.

I only give you two choices, either surrender, or I will continue to be imprisoned in the dungeon until the end of time..."

After speaking, his eyes became more and more indifferent.

This caster was precious, but not so precious that she had to.

Lauren was not in the mood to make any promises with the other party here.

The city of Huiyue will not fall because of the lack of her.

When Winnie tried to use her own value to negotiate with Lauren, the ending was doomed.

Only a male lion is qualified to negotiate with a giant bear. A tiger that has no fangs and claws and is trapped in a whole body, what can I talk to him?

Winnie was shocked, this boy was ten thousand times stronger than she imagined...

The confidence that everything was under control began to disappear. After taking two deep breaths, he said again.

"My lord, I don't intend to provoke you.

But locking me in the dungeon will not benefit Huiyue City or your people, I am willing to do my best for you, and what you need to pay is even more insignificant, you..."

Lauren said lightly.

"You think too highly of yourself.

Huiyue City didn't collapse before without you, and it won't collapse without you.

I only give you three minutes to think about it.

If you agree, kneel down and pledge your allegiance, if you don't agree, go down.

The dungeon must have been cleared, and there will be a long-standing guest there. "

Charity does not control soldiers, righteousness does not manage money.

Although the value of this female spell caster is very high, if she cannot be completely subdued, she will only cooperate with so-called friends or employment relationships.

Then what's the use of him wanting the other party?

In case the other party arranges a few backhands to cheat him, who will he turn to for reasoning?

Winnie was picked up by the kobolds in the Endless Wasteland.

Lauren didn't know anything about her origins.

It's too simple to trust the other party rashly when you see a little benefit.

He relied on the angry bear cavalry, the wolf spear thrower, the barbarian, the upgraded bronze-level arrow tower, and the renovated city wall, not this spell caster.

He never pinned his hopes on an outsider.

"I......"

Winnie wanted to say something, but the soldiers behind Lauren were already standing in front of her, looking at her unkindly.

The girl looked at the boy who was still looking into the distance without even looking back.

The calmness on his face was gone, and there was a bit of a wry smile in his eyes.

This young lord is really not an ordinary person.

There is both resentment and a little admiration in my heart.

In the end, he had no choice but to turn around and leave, silently watching that heroic figure in the corner of the city wall.

Lauren only regarded this matter as an episode, and didn't take it too seriously.

He only believes in the power he can control, and he never holds out hope for things beyond his control.

Huh~

Just at this moment, a gust of wind blew past.

Then the soldiers on the city wall felt their vision suddenly dimmed a lot.

Qiqi looked up.

In the next second, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

In the sky, the originally white clouds were filled with a faint crimson...

The scene looks full of coquettish and evil atmosphere.

Some veterans murmured subconsciously.

"The precursor to the coming of the bloody day... At dusk tomorrow, the bloody polluters will climb out of the dimension plane."

"A natural disaster is coming."

For a moment, panic appeared on the faces of the surrounding people.

——

——

Decker City, the largest city in the north, has always been a lively place.

Every day, a large number of convoys drive in and out of this giant city dominating the endless wasteland.

But today, unexpectedly, the bustling city seemed to have been paused. Not only were the city gates closed, but even the streets had few residents walking around.

On the contrary, there are several times more troops in neat armor and with stern faces than in the past.

In the twelfth block of Decker City, a manor with a plaque of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce Alliance was very different from the surrounding manors at this time, and the gate was also closed.

In the main hall of the manor, Lauren's first subordinate in this world - Arnold looked up at the sky through the window.

At this time, Yun had already been covered with a layer of extremely faint crimson.

The air seemed to be filled with the smell of blood.

A middle-aged man in a black cloak quietly appeared behind him, looking at the abnormal sky outside the window, hesitantly said.

"President Arnold, the bloody day will come at dusk tomorrow, that noble lord..."

Anol turned his head slightly and stared at the person coming.

"Gary, this is not something you should worry about.

You can't imagine how vast the sky is without seeing an eagle.

I have never doubted whether Lord Laurent can survive the bloody day. "

The middle-aged thief named Gary was silent for a long time, and finally said slowly.

"But this is the Day of Blood after all..."

The whole world is facing natural disasters, how many people die every year because of it? ?

The scene of Lauren shaking gold with a body of silver emerged in Arnold's mind, and his tone was firm.

"So what? Outsiders can't imagine how powerful Lord Laurent is."

"Do what you're doing, Gary!"

"After the bloody day, the information of all chambers of commerce in Decker City must be sorted out. This is the first task assigned by the adults. Weeds must be completed unconditionally!"

Gary looked at Arnold's determined expression with inexplicable emotion.

"Arnold, that noble lord has only been in contact with you for two days, and you can respect him so much.

If I didn't know your character, and I have seen the rare occupation and blood power you have obtained.

I really have to wonder if you were bewitched by a succubus. "

Arnold looked at Gary, whose chin was full of stubble, and was also touched.

"Gary, in Weeds, you are the person I admire the most, and you will definitely be better than me in the future.

The magnificence of Lord Laurent cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences.

You just need to know, as long as you work hard enough and are steadfastly loyal to adults.

What you get will definitely exceed your imagination! "

He was originally a Bronze rank thief who was too humble.

The turning point that changed his destiny was that he won Lauren's approval.

He is now the president of Weeds, the steward of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce Alliance, has the rare profession of shadow thief, and has activated the power of blood.

All of this is a gift from Lord Laurent.

Even the fate of those children in the orphanage has been changed because of his choice.

He couldn't be more grateful for that.

He knew exactly what kind of energy that handsome and powerful boy possessed.

Seeing Anol's serious expression, Gary was stunned for a long time, and finally let out a long breath.

"Arnold, maybe you're right... I should change my mind.

This time, let me assist you, and let me see the sharpness of that noble lord! "

There was a satisfied smile on Arnold's face, and his right hand was stretched out like a wrench. Gary also showed a smile on his face that had never smiled before, pa~

The wrists of the two were tightly held together.

At this moment, they found a common goal.

The bloody sky outside the window didn't seem so scary anymore.

——

Bucks Marquess Manor.

As the powerful Marquis in Decker City, the Marquis of the Bucks has a detached status.

At this moment, Elvis Bucks, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Bucks, the well-known genius in Decker City was frowning at her younger brother, Enli Bucks.

"After the descendant of the Bauhinia family went to the endless wasteland, there was no news?"

Enli Buck, the heir of the nobleman who had witnessed Lauren beating up the barbarian chief, shook his head.

"Sister, no one knows where Master Lauren's territory is, I only know that it was breached by monsters during the last bloody day.

Half a month ago, he returned to Decker City to raise funds and restart the territory.

But the Fairy Bank and several nobles rejected him..."

The graceful and luxurious Elvis frowned.

"Reject a nobleman who defeated a gold-level barbarian chief head-on at the silver level?

And the other party is a descendant of the Bauhinia family... Were the brains of these idiots eaten by the brain eaters of the dungeon clan? "

She couldn't imagine what a fool would be to refuse to make friends with such a good prospect.

Even if the other party asks for the Marquis of the Bucks Manor, which has never had friendship, within 30 million, she will lend it out without hesitation.

There are not many opportunities to build relationships with such geniuses.

Enley Buck looked strange.

"I asked those noble families. After their evaluation, they felt that Master Laurent could not survive in the endless wasteland, so they refused to borrow money..."

Elvis smiled angrily.

"Even the descendants of the Bauhinia family and the geniuses protected by platinum guardians cannot survive in the endless wasteland. Do they want the prince of the Silvermoon Kingdom to come?"

She really couldn't understand what was going on in those people's minds.

Enli Bucks nodded in agreement, but after thinking about it, he said softly.

"No one knows whether we can survive the next bloody day..."

Hearing this proverb circulating in Noel's main plane, Elvis fell silent.

Putting the documents in his hands on the desk, he turned his head and looked through the glass window at the crimson sky in the distance.

"Enli, keep an eye on that descendant of the Bauhinia family.

If he can return to Decker City unharmed after the Scarlet Day... Write an invitation for me, and I will treat him personally. "

Enli Buck looked at his sister who never pretended to outsiders in surprise, and finally nodded slowly.

"That Young Master Lauren may surprise us."

After he saw that young man defeating a gold-rank barbarian with an invincible posture, he had an unimaginable admiration for him in his heart.

——

City of Glory Moon.

"Quick, quick, get the spear up, you fool! What are you doing with the spear?!

I bet you must have drunk Papa Mal's fake wine! Otherwise, why can't even tell the difference between a spear and a throwing spear! "

"The kobolds immediately put the stones on the wall!"

"Goddess, if you dare to delay any longer, I will definitely use a whip to make you feel the pain."

"..."

The omens of the approaching bloody day made everyone start to grow irritable.

The pale crimson of the sky will gradually darken... until the blood moon rises and the entire sky turns blood red.

The pressure of knowing the imminent danger made them breathe heavily.

After the sudden change in the weather, Lauren didn't go anywhere.

It looks like a stone tablet stands on the city wall, and a banner behind it is fluttering in the wind.

Soldiers passing by and residents who are digging traps often look towards the city head subconsciously.

When I saw that handsome figure standing upright, I felt inexplicably courageous in my heart.

Lord Lord is watching them!

Although the bloody day is scary, but with the lord around, they can handle all of this!

Unknowingly, Lauren has become a banner, a banner that entrusts everyone's hopes.

Winnie watched this scene in silence.

The pride deep in her heart makes her unwilling to surrender to the other party, and she yearns for freedom even more.

To a certain extent, he even hopes to cooperate with this immature but infinitely potential territory, and help her avenge in the future.

Instead of submitting to him and becoming his subordinate, as the young lord said.

However, Lauren ignored her after the sudden change in the sky, and didn't even look at her again.

Three minutes had already passed, as if she had been forgotten.

Winnie didn't know whether to be grateful or angry.

But at this moment, Lauren seemed to feel something, turned his head slightly, and looked at her.

Wei Ni didn't know why, but suddenly felt a little nervous.

The calmness of the past has long since disappeared.

She knew that the young man in front of her could decide her fate with one word.

Tread~

Leather boots trampled on the ground of the city wall made of logs, making a dull sound.

After Lauren approached Winnie, he didn't talk too much nonsense, and said directly.

"Now, I appoint you as the temporary technical director of City of Glory Moon, and immediately go to the weapons factory to guide the production of the Gale Spear."

Winnie was stunned for a moment when she heard the sudden order, and wanted to say something arrogantly, but Lauren didn't give her a chance.

"This is an order, you have no right to refuse."

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at the two soldiers next to him.

"If she violates the military order, she will be killed without mercy!"

The two soldiers nodded immediately.

"Yes, my lord."

Then Wei Ni was taken to the weapons department for no apparent reason.

She had no chance to refuse.

Turning her head to look at the soldier who was following her closely with indifferent eyes, she wanted to cry without tears.

She didn't doubt how well the two men carried out Lauren's orders.

Inexplicably aggrieved.

She just wants to be free, why is it so difficult...

At this time, the clever girl didn't ask for anything more. If she was really killed by these two soldiers, it would be too wronged.

After contact with Lauren, the original affection in his heart suddenly turned into gnashing of teeth.

The bastard! !

That afternoon.

Winnie entered the weapons department and began to guide the craftsmen of the weapons department according to the improved production technology of the Spear of the Wind.

Immediately simplifies several production processes and greatly improves production efficiency.

The inventory of the Windspear began to increase rapidly.

at the same time.

Yas, the barbarian chieftain who was hunting outside, returned to the City of Glorious Moon before dark, and at the same time brought the corpses of hundreds of monsters.

Lauren directly distributed all these monsters to the residents that night to replenish energy and prepare for tomorrow's battle of natural disasters.

After dinner.

Lauren spent 2,000 soul power in the Manor of the Lord, and converted 4 Berserkers into Raging Blood Cavalry.

So far, the number of angry bear cavalry has increased to 10, which is exactly one squad.

The power increase is not small.

Because of the huge pressure from the Bloody Day, Lauren directly ordered everyone to work overtime that night.

The bright moon lasts forever (when the bright moon rises, the recovery speed of the residents in the city of the bright moon increases by 30%)

With this territorial attribute, the work efficiency of the residents not only did not decrease, but increased a lot compared to the daytime.

And after the hunting army joined the construction, the construction progress of the traps outside the city walls increased sharply.

Hundreds of barbarians possess great strength, and their work efficiency is more than three times stronger than that of ordinary humans. With the blessing of territorial characteristics, each one of them is simply violent when working.

After the angry bear cavalry was blessed with the power of the bear, their work was even more exaggerated.

Comparable to a humanoid excavator.

It was only then that Lauren found out.

These barbarians are actually used for production, and their value may not be lower than that of them becoming fighters.

More than 170 residents, plus nearly 300 soldiers, a total of nearly 400 people started working at the same time.

In addition, the super farming characteristic of increasing the recovery rate of physical strength by 30%.

Before the dawn of the next day, all the traps outside the city were successfully arranged beyond expectations.

So far, Huiyue City has three defenses.

The first is a trap outside the city walls.

In addition to the falling horse pits and tripping ropes everywhere, there are also a large number of traps with amazing lethality.

If you don't know the reserved safety route in advance, I'm afraid that even Lauren himself can't guarantee whether he will fall into the trap.

Because the area 200 meters in front of the city wall was almost completely dug out.

Either there is a spear stuck upside down under the huge pit, or there is a bear trap under the tree.

The density of traps is so high that it is simply outrageous.

The second line of defense is the city wall.

The sharpened wooden sticks and spearheads face outward at 70 degrees, and the superposition of thousands of wooden sticks makes the entire city wall look like a hedgehog.

The 100-meter area in the middle of the city wall can be defended by standing people, which strengthens the line of defense from the front.

The third line of defense is the bronze-level arrow tower behind the city wall.

The arrow tower can accommodate 30 people to attack at the same time, and it has the feature - the power of the wind, which increases the shooting range by 20% in the arrow tower and increases the flight speed of weapons such as arrows and spears by 30%.

This is definitely a strong fire support point.

And if it is not enough, you can also arrange the kobold blood mage Sim to give this kobold extra fire support.

In fact, there is a fourth line of defense.

That is the angry bear cavalry and the wolf spear thrower.

If the enemy breaks through the walls and enters hand-to-hand combat, the Bear Riders and Wolf Spearmen will be the key to dominating the battle.

Although the two arms add up to only 30 cavalry.

But the fighting power is definitely the peak of the audience.

After Loren inspected the territory and confirmed that it was correct, he sent the army who had been busy all night to rest.

All preparations are ready, just waiting for the blood moon to rise at dusk.

The first natural disaster he traveled to this world is about to come.
