The Knight's Journey to the Empire

Nowadays, the news that White Bear Territory is recruiting people all the time, allocating land and offering low taxes has spread rapidly throughout the entire Ganise County like a torrent!

So every once in a while, people who are living in poverty and have nowhere else to go would flock to the White Bear Territory in search of a glimmer of hope!

The White Bear Lord treated all those who came voluntarily to seek refuge equally, and accepted them all regardless of their social status or experience!

Of course, there are also some criminals or people who try to pass themselves off as innocent. They try to sneak into the White Bear Territory under false identities and seek asylum.

For this kind of people, if they are found out, as long as they haven’t committed anything too serious, White Bear Territory will generally not pursue the matter!

But if you meet a notorious bandit who has committed many evil deeds and committed heinous crimes, that would be embarrassing!

There are only two fates waiting for them: either they are hanged to serve as a warning to others, or they are demoted to low-class slaves, living in darkness forever and unable to stand up!

Of course, Sauron's open and unlimited recruitment of subjects also caused dissatisfaction among many surrounding feudal nobles!

Because some of the people of these feudal nobles have more or less moved to the White Bear Territory!

However, given the current powerful strength of the White Bear Territory and the relatively small number of people who have left their own territory.

Therefore, they only spread some slanderous rumors about Baron Soran in the aristocratic circle.

But now, the development trend of this matter seems to have changed!

The reason for this is mainly because there is a leader - Viscount Molson!

Viscount Molson's territory is located in the west of White Bear Territory. The two territories are separated by a small mountain range in the middle, and the south is connected to each other through the County Road.

It is worth mentioning that the area of ​​Viscount Molson's territory is about twice that of White Bear Territory.

But precisely because of this, the number of people who left Viscount Molson's territory and went to White Bear Territory was the largest!

Up to now, the number of people who have left Viscount Molson’s territory has exceeded 500!

You know, the total population of the entire Viscount Molson's territory is only over 10,000 people!

But now, one twentieth of it has been lost in an instant!

So how can they not be anxious!

Now, Viscount Molson has formally submitted an earnest and carefully worded application to the Noble Court of County Garnesse.

In this application, Viscount Molson clearly stated that he required Baron Soren to return the lost population from all territories, including Viscount Molson's territory, within a time limit.

Moreover, he also criticized the White Bear Territory's policy of openly and unlimitedly recruiting people in the application, saying it was illegal and would undermine the stability of the entire Ganise County.

Therefore, he strongly demanded that Bai Xiongling withdraw this illegal policy and apologize publicly!

Moreover, under the skillful operation of Viscount Molson, this application has received enthusiastic responses and firm support from many feudal nobles, who have expressed their secondment and signed it!

And precisely because of this, the Noble Garden of Ganise County has paid unprecedented attention and importance to this incident!

At present, the Noble Court of County Garnes has officially accepted Viscount Molson's application, but the final outcome is still unknown.

Knight Continent Calendar May 4878, 1.

On this day, a lame man limped along the vast white county road outside the White Bear Sentry Village.

He was thin, with exposed cheekbones. He wore a tattered, dirty old cotton jacket and carried a tattered bag on his back. His hair was messy and his face was dirty.

When the villagers of Gangshao Village saw the stranger, they immediately became alert.

After they approached and questioned carefully, they found out that the middle-aged man was named Gabriel, and he was a poor man who came to seek refuge in the White Bear Territory!

If it were under normal circumstances, the villagers of Sentry Village, who also came from poor backgrounds, would definitely let him into the White Bear Territory without hesitation. Some of them might even take pity on him and give him a piece of bread or two to fill his stomach!

But now, it’s no longer possible!

The news that someone wanted to assassinate the kind and benevolent lord spread quickly in the White Bear Territory and spread like wildfire!

This news undoubtedly caused a huge uproar in the White Bear Territory, and the people in the territory were all talking about it!

Although the people did not know who was the mastermind behind the scenes, with the testimony of the sentinel village chief Wumu Wilwine and the citizen Muben Osas, they all began to adopt the attitude of "it is better to believe it than not to believe it"!

Therefore, they will remain highly vigilant and carefully interrogate anyone who wants to enter the White Bear Territory instead of being a White Bear Territory citizen!

Even when facing a cripple like Gabriel, they would not take it lightly or be careless!

The people of White Bear Territory are protecting their kind and benevolent lord in their own way!

Half a day passed before the villagers of Sentry Village finished questioning Gabriel!

Then the villagers gave him two loaves of bread to fill his stomach and let him leave the sentry village and enter the White Bear Territory!

But at this moment, Gabriel had only one thought in his mind: How did the news of the assassination of Baron Soren get exposed? Is there a traitor?

That’s right, this Gabriel is actually the killer hired by Odyssey Wiggins to assassinate Soran!

Don’t think he is incompetent just because he has a lame leg, he actually has rich experience in assassination!

This can be seen from the fact that he chose this outfit to blend into the White Bear Territory!

Moreover, he has the strength of a superior knight, but unfortunately he has not yet mastered the fighting skills!

But his strength is still very strong!

Although the news that someone was going to assassinate Baron Soren had spread, Gabriel did not choose to leave!

Because he had a single line of communication with Odyssey Wiggins, which meant that he was not exposed!

So he planned to stay in the White Bear Territory to gather some information first!

An assassin needs to be patient when carrying out an assassination, and Gabriel lost his leg because he did not have enough patience during a mission.

……

It was not until evening that Gabriel arrived at the town of Flanders!

In other words, he had the physical fitness of a superior knight and could walk much faster!

Otherwise, it’s more than ten kilometers away!

How could an ordinary cripple walk so fast?

Soon, Gabriel arrived at the White Bear Territory's refugee resettlement center, which was specially designed to accommodate foreign refugees. After being questioned again by the relevant staff, he stayed in the White Bear Territory!

In the following days, he began to secretly inquire about Baron Sauron's news through various means!

But the news he got shocked Gabriel greatly!

Because all of this news was actually praising and complimenting Baron Sauron!

What about being kind and benevolent, caring for the people; what about being considerate to subordinates, cultivating the people; what about being fair and selfless, doing things according to the law... and so on!

This is simply everything, but not a single one of them slanders or belittles him!

That means that Baron Soren might be a good nobleman!

But are there really any good nobles in this world?

Gabriel couldn't help but wonder!

Anyway, Baron Sauron has also gone to Ganise City!

Therefore, Gabriel was not in a hurry and planned to stay in the White Bear Territory to find out more information!

Mainly, he wanted to take a good look at whether Baron Sauron was a good nobleman!
