The Lord of Another World: All Wasted at the Beginning, and He Made His Fortune by Taking in the Fem

The war of nobles planned by the emperor and staged in the western border province of the empire has finally begun.

The third prince, who had arrived in Moti City, personally presided over the registration process the next day. Hundreds of honorary nobles and thousands of servants gathered in Moti City completed the registration and filing within one day, and received special participant badges.

[All participants must wear badges or obvious marks throughout the battle and must not hide their identities. Violators will be disqualified. ]

——This rule is mainly used to prevent players from assassinating each other.

Among so many nobles, there may be some who want to take radical measures. If someone hides his identity and plots against others, everyone will be in danger and restrained in a few days, and will no longer be able to show their strength.

While the authorities have made rules and restrictions, they have also given their own suggestions for participating in the war.

[All players participating in the battle should give priority to winning the support of the people in each city and improving their reputation in the territory. If there is no risk to their life safety, they should try to avoid attacking others. The supervision team has the right to punish malicious attacks on other players. ]

——You can fight in private, but it’s best not to let others see.

As for winning the support of the people, it all depends on how much resources you have at your disposal. Whether it is mindlessly throwing money or inciting public sentiment, as long as the residents of the city sincerely recognize you as the lord, it doesn't matter what method you use.

[In addition, considering that all contestants are concentrated in Moti City at the beginning of the battle, in order to avoid possible confusion, the supervision team will fully disclose the list of participants in five days. During this five-day preparation period, the behavior of all contestants will still be subject to the laws of the empire. ]

——This is the time for the players to change places.

Everyone is in Moti City now. If they knew that the people around them were competitors, they might fight as soon as they leave the city. Now the authorities have given everyone a five-day buffer period to give the players a chance to secure a new base.

In addition to the eleven cities that needed to be fought for, there were actually more than a hundred towns and villages in the territory of Marquis Moti. As the initial strongholds, these places were the best choices.

[Once again, any act of harming civilians is a serious violation of the rules and imperial laws. The Fourth Border Defense Army will do its utmost to ensure that the normal lives of all residents in the territory are not disturbed. Any violators will be severely punished.]

——Also, don’t think of any crooked ways, and show some noble honor.

Although most nobles still have some self-respect, there is no guarantee that some people will do anything to gain territory. The purpose of the supervision team is actually to eliminate these evil people.

Of course, they may have other unknown purposes, but these have nothing to do with the players.

[Finally, the final right of interpretation of the rules of this Battle of Glory belongs to the Imperial Family. If you have any objections, please report directly to His Majesty the Emperor.]

——The last sentence has a correct meaning.

Conspiracy? We have a conspiracy! Are you going to rebel if you don't accept it?

After watching the opening ceremony presided over by the young third prince through his spiritual vision, Aarons had no other thoughts in his mind except for a few national curses from his previous life.

The Empire had already earned several thousand gold coins in registration fees that day, and even if the group of people behind them fought each other to a bloody pulp, the Empire would still make a profit.

“…Is this game playable?”

……

However, an unexpected incident occurred the day after the Battle of Zhengrong officially opened.

The City Hall of Maville City, located in the north of the territory, publicly announced that the event held by the Empire would endanger the lives and safety of the city's residents. In order to protect the residents in the city, Maville City will enter a state of martial law from now on, refusing any outsiders to enter or leave.

When the reporters who smelled the unrest quickly rushed to the vicinity of the city, they saw that there were nearly a thousand mercenaries stationed outside the city, displaying a war posture that was almost indistinguishable from an independent rebellion.

[…This is the frontline report from the Empire Central Psychic Vision Station. There are currently three large mercenary groups stationed outside the city of Maville, with a total of approximately 1,800 people. The local city hall issued a notice stating that unless the Empire immediately stops the War of Glory, any outsiders will be completely prohibited from entering the city.]

"This is actually a rebellion, right? Are the Cadians so impatient?"

A city hall certainly cannot afford the cost of employing more than a thousand people.

There must be a big money sponsor behind them, and Cardia, who had previously extended his hand to the Marquisate, is naturally the first suspect.

"Master, I think they are just testing the Empire's reaction."

"Probing? Do you have to make such a big fuss?"

"If the Empire sends out border guards to suppress it, it will inevitably affect the normal operation of the event. And they can also take the opportunity to secretly incite public opinion and make the residents of other cities feel resistant."

After all, this is a border area far away from the imperial capital, and most people do not have that much awe for the empire.

Compared to the emperor who might not be seen in person in his lifetime, Marquis Moti, who once fought against two countries here, is more respected.

"And if the imperial authorities do nothing about it, the honorary nobles who participate in the war alone will not be able to easily break through such defenses. If this stalemate continues for a few months, other cities may follow their example."

If that time comes, these cities can cooperate with Kadia at any time and directly start a chaotic war in this border area.

"It seems that the strategist behind the other party is also very powerful... He actually has the courage to use a city that he has painstakingly infiltrated as a bargaining chip."

"But Master, I guess the Empire already has a corresponding plan."

Aarons certainly didn't believe that the empire was unprepared for this, but he was more concerned about what role he would play in this chaos.

He didn't have much energy to shake up the situation right now. Although Karin and Xia Ye were strong, they could only deal with some of the enemies in plain sight.

People's hearts, resources, and productivity are the most important keys to a war. This world does not have the kind of doomsday power that can wipe out thousands of lives with one sword. Ordinary people are still the most important part of the world's system.

[Wait... We just received the news! Just now, Marquis Aarons Moti sent his confidants to Marvell City and submitted a formal negotiation document to the mercenary group stationed there.]

"What? I sent someone to negotiate? How come I didn't even know about it!"

[An insider revealed to us that the Marquis required the City Hall of Marvell City to immediately disband the illegal armed forces and to surrender their crimes of rebellion to the Border Guard Corps. If they do not follow the instructions, all possible consequences will be borne by the City Hall and the illegal mercenaries! ]

[And Marvel City has directly rejected the Marquis's request! They just issued a notice stating that the new Marquis is not a lord and has no right to make any instructions! ]

[How the situation will develop, please pay attention to the follow-up reports from the Empire Central Psychic Vision Station! ]

...Okay, now things have gotten serious.

"What the hell is this! Xia Ye, come with me now! I have to go see the Third Prince right away!"
