Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?

"You're really not going to think about it again?"

Sister Bernice from the lantern dream knelt in front of Lind.

This nun that Lind had met in his dream had come to him for the fourth time, of course in reality.

But Lind still refused directly: "No, at least not now. Your teachings are too radical. At least there can't be blatant cults in my territory."

Linde was quite polite in his words. After all, the other party had shared the brain servant technology with Linde, which could directly help the territory to significantly increase its computing power.

But this thing is too weird. It is not unfair to call them a cult. In the eyes of these people, people are just consumables.

This technology directly treats people as nodes, and requires a large number of people each time. If Lind really takes this step, he can only rule by violence in the future, which is really not worth the loss.

This Lantern Dream, which claims to be the orthodox Goddess Cult, basically treats every day as the end of the world and ruthlessly exploits manpower. But for Lind, the situation is not yet critical to this extent. At least Lind cannot see the so-called doomsday scene.

"Then at least set up a point of contact?"

"You can contact my bards."

After Lind finished speaking, Lucanus bowed and saluted.

"Ok."

Bernice sighed. The huge obelisk standing among the gray and white collars was considered to be the manifestation of Golden Age technology in this era. She was eager to establish a cooperative relationship with Lind.

It's not like Linde didn't give the other party a chance. If the other party could provide a method on how to have a perfect lucid dream, Linde might even take the risk to help the other party clear his name.

However, perfect lucid dreaming is also a black box technology for lantern dreams. They don’t know the specific principles and can only proceed under the influence of the oracle lantern left by the goddess.

Moreover, dreaming remotely online also consumes brain servant computing power.

In short, although there was some cooperation between the two sides during the mutual tug of war, it was not much and fell within the scope of transactions between normal lords and cultists.

"Finally, we would like to remind you that there may be a major change in Augustine in the capital."

Bernice raised her eyes and glanced at Lucanus provocatively.

"This is information that even your bards cannot obtain."

"I understand."

Lind was not surprised. After all, Lucanus was not omnipotent. It was already an exaggeration for him to have access to intelligence about the North. The capital was mostly just trying to maintain a basic intelligence system.

"Then the next batch of supplies will still be at the old place, remember to receive them."

After saying this, Lind asked Bernice to leave.

Not long after, Reina curiously pushed the door open and entered the study.

"You're always so mysterious. What on earth are you guys talking about, Linde?"

"Just some business stuff."

No matter what, the other party are all cultists. In Lena's understanding, they are the targets that Knight Lars needs to defeat. In order to protect Lena, Lind decided to try to prevent the two sides from contacting each other.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, let's take a look at my new drawings."

Reina drew a completely simplified locomotive that could carry a container of primary-color sand for direct use in the mine.

To be honest, the mine is probably the place with the most advanced equipment besides the army and the laboratory. Linde is not worried about overcapacity. Not to mention being able to sell it to the elves, almost everyone in the territory has a premonition that when winter is over, the war will come, and by then they will only complain that the equipment and machines are not fast enough.

Doug's issuance of Dougcoin is definitely not just to satisfy himself and those nobles. Even if the internal politics is a mess, as long as the war is won, it will be the winner takes all. Although the method is crude, Doug has indeed accumulated a lot of wealth in a short period of time by relying on these crudely made banknotes.

"Linde, what are you going to do when the war is over?"

Reina suddenly asked seriously.

Obviously, the war will not end so quickly. Even if Lind can quickly force Doug and Lena's other two uncles to surrender, what he will have to face next is the war between the royal family and the demons.

There was only one way for Lind to go.

Perhaps after unifying the North, there is another way to continue to submit to the king and become another Grand Duke Lars, but it is obvious that this may be more difficult than a direct conflict with the king.

But Lind still thought carefully about the impossible future: "Go teach. You may not believe it, but I was a teacher in my previous life, although I taught simple subjects."

"That's not what I'm talking about."

Reina put her hands on her hips and said coquettishly, "As the son-in-law of the Lars family, can't you be more ambitious?"

"what?"

Linde was a little puzzled as to why Rena suddenly came to her senses today. You know, although there are many radicals under Linde and conservatives who think the radicals are too conservative, Rena is different from these people. She is basically the type who just wants a husband, children and a warm bed.

Although we don’t have children yet, we will have them sooner or later.

"Don't you want to be prime minister?"

"Uh......"

Well, it seems that I was overthinking it. Linde had to admit that Lena was really smart, but her political IQ was not high.

Now that Linde wants to be the prime minister, Clan Augustin will probably not be able to sleep, especially since Augustin III gave the prime minister too much power in order to fight against Archduke Lars.

Not to mention the king who couldn't sleep, Lind himself probably couldn't sleep either, and he might even develop a habit of killing people in his dreams.

"Grandpa said that the prime minister is the highest official. He wanted to be the prime minister when he was young. And if you become the prime minister, Lin De, you will definitely govern the country well, right?"

It seems that Archduke Lars was indeed very young when he was young, but it is not difficult to understand that Archduke Lars has always had unrealistic fantasies about the royal family.

"Okay, I'll try my best."

Although Linde really wanted to say, is there a possibility that now we can only be an official higher than the prime minister, but seeing Rena's expectant eyes, Linde still touched Rena's head affectionately.

After Lena left, Lind asked in a low voice: "Can you figure out what the royal changes in the lantern dream are about?"

"It may take some dark threads. I'll try my best."

"Just do it. The dark thread exists for times like these."

Lucanus disappeared into the shadows and said, "You are becoming more and more like a king, as long as you are not in front of your wife. My king, I look forward to the day when you will ascend the throne."

At the same time in the royal capital, Clan Augustine was writing something furiously.

"Cough cough!"

Cran couldn't help coughing and immediately covered his mouth with his hands. Looking at the pools of blood on his hands, Cran's vision became a little blurred.

The servant next to him immediately took out a silk scarf and wiped the blood for Clan.

However, looking at the reform documents, Cran smiled.

It turned out to be the right decision to hand over the reform to Lilith. She was very talented, even better than most of Clan's brothers and sisters.

Although the time was short, Lilith had already taken control of all the important industries in the royal capital under the name of the royal family and the church, laying a solid foundation for Clan's reforms.

And with the support of his dual identities as a saint and future queen, Clan can hand over most of his power to Lilith.

To be honest, Clan somewhat understood his father, because his behavior was very similar to that of Augustine III, who gave most of the power to the prime minister in order to fight against Lars.

Looking at the attendant who was carefully wiping his hands, Clan finally made up his mind and said, "Go to my brother."
