    In fact, everyone of his subordinates, except Bastet, has their own purpose.  Freddy, Rickett, Harlot and others are pursuing wealth; Charlotte and other former residents of Headington are surrounding Raymond because of Headington's continued prosperity. Of course, they hope to go further.  ; Thorz and other people who came over hoped to give Ferelden a bright future Raymond cannot require everyone to be a selfless saint, so if he wants to continue to rule the Headington area, he must  Find a way that everyone agrees with.  "Actually, I did think of a solution, and that is" Raymond said.  However, before he could finish speaking, Saul asked him: "I guess you want to establish a country, right?" It's not surprising that Saul guessed this. With the huge resources in Raymond's hands, this should be a matter of course.  thing.  What surprised Raymond was that Sol's tone didn't seem to be very optimistic.  Sure enough, I heard Saul say: "Do you know how many difficulties you will face if you want to establish a new country out of thin air? Let's not talk about establishing an administrative system, tax system and other troublesome things. Just to obtain other countries'  "It is very difficult for the barbarians to be recognized." Thor knew this very well. When the barbarians founded the country, it was only through Thor's mediation that they were recognized by the Kingdom of Dinar, which gave them some status.  But so far, the Lulin Empire and the Orc Empire still do not officially recognize the barbarians as a country. In the hearts of most people on the Mojina continent, it is still a barbaric land.  The consequence of not being recognized is that trade and diplomacy cannot be carried out smoothly. For a country, this is a very passive thing.  Then, Thor added: "In addition, after the establishment of the country, no matter how good the relationship with you was before, the forces will be wary of you, and Gaspard will be the same. Don't look at me, this is how it is between countries, even Sofia  No matter how much that girl likes you, she can't change it. " "If you are prepared, there will be disputes. The relationship between countries will not last forever like two children being friends. Moreover, after you start to rule by national means, you will not be able to change it.  As you do as you please before, your subordinates will gradually form their own forces. You have to try your best to balance them. You are also responsible for the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the people in the country. Once any problem occurs, the finger will be pointed at you as the king first" "Finally,  Thor said to him: "In short, there are many problems. Have you thought about these clearly?" As the prince of the Orc Empire, Raymond is naturally familiar with these things.  When Amada ruled the Orc Empire, she was also very anxious.  However, Raymond will never back down.  When he traveled across the ocean and came to this continent, he had sworn that he would find his own world here and no longer be controlled by others.  Now he is convinced.  Headington is its own place.  So, Raymond said resolutely: "Of course. I can definitely overcome it." "I understand, I understand." Saul touched his chin and nodded repeatedly: "With your ability, it is not a problem to handle these things. As for me,  Of course I¡¯m not asking you to give up. In fact, even if you agree, the people under your command won¡¯t be willing to do it.¡± Having said that.  He changed the topic: "However, there is actually a better solution." "What is it?" Raymond couldn't help but be startled.  Unexpectedly, Sol did not answer, but asked: "By the way, you are not married yet, right?" Really uncomfortable with his extremely jumping way of speaking, Raymond had to say: "Not yet." "  Hey." Thor's eyes lit up: "That's the solution." "What do you mean?" Raymond frowned.  However, Thor just patted his shoulder very ambiguously: "That Queen Sophia seems to be very attracted to you, and she is also a good person. It is much easier to have a ready-made country than to go to the trouble of building a new one.  , and it¡¯s more acceptable in name" "Mr. Saul, can you make it clearer" Seeing Saul babbling, Raymond was completely confused.  "Hey, you are so smart, why do you need me to say it clearly?" However, Sol ignored his question and only gave him a "you know" look.  "Anyway, I'm doing it for your own good. You should think about it carefully." After saying that, Thor walked forward.  Son, dad can only help you so much.  Raymond was confused on his side: "What on earth is he talking about" "Hey, wait. MarriageSofiaready-made" Raymond suddenly reacted.  ¡°Could he be asking Sophia and me to¡± Do other people think so too?  Suddenly, Raymond realized that this matter might be further than he thought.?Much more complex.  ***************************************************  **************** After talking about that incident, the two of them did not continue other topics.  Soon, they returned to Lovell's residential area.  When the two met Kress, Kress was still practicing his sword skills on the practice field.  Since recovering from his injury, he has never relaxed for a moment.  "Kress, how are you preparing?" Sol asked Kress from a long distance away.  He already knew that when Raymond came back this time, he also planned to observe the duel.  "No problem." Kress replied while flexibly waving the iron rod used to exercise his wrist strength.  "Has the location for the duel been chosen?" Thor asked again.  Kress was still focused on the instrument in his hand: "Lord, I have already thought about it. I plan to choose Manas Island as the location for the decisive battle." "Manas Island?" Thor said in surprise: "Why did you choose that place?  ?¡± ¡°No reason.¡± Kress shook his head: ¡°It just feels right, and you don¡¯t have to worry about hurting innocent people.¡± Manas Island used to be the headquarters of the Lovell Chamber of Commerce, but it has been abandoned since it was destroyed by the sea dragon.  .  In order to rebuild the headquarters, Reed has sent people to clean up the island, clearing away the mud and burying the dead, but the island is still in ruins.  "However, both Gru and Kress have extraordinary destructive power, so it is a perfect place to use that place as a duel location.  "Okay, I will tell Reed and ask him to send a ship to take you there." Thor said.  Raymond also said: "I will also ask Hermi to inform Leliana. Tell Gru." "Well, thank you." Kress nodded and continued to sweat like rain.  Knowing that it was best not to disturb him at this time, Sol and Raymond turned and left.  A week later, Leliana was notified and conveyed Gru¡¯s opinion: No problem.  So, the duel location between the two was officially chosen on Manas Island.  Although after destroying the Necromancer.  Everyone in Lovell no longer has to stay in the Veronica continent.  But everyone knows that a battle between Gru and Kress is inevitable. No, it should be said that the grudges between Gru and the people who have been hurt by him must be resolved!  Therefore, this battle is imperative!  A few days later, the day of the duel finally arrived, and Kress set off from Headington by boat.  Head to Manas Island.  Only a few people, including Thor and Raymond, were traveling with him, and they were able to watch this unprecedented decisive battle in person.  "Kress, I know I can't stop you." On the dock, Julie held Kress's hand and refused to let go for a long time: "But you must promise me that you must come back alive." "Don't worry."  Kress stroked his beloved wife's hair with his big hands: "I will definitely come back." "Your name is Lorna, right?" Suddenly, Julie turned to Lorna.  The decisive battle for Kress.  Lorna got Sophia's permission and made a special trip from Gaspard to Headington.  ?Always.  Julie didn't know, or pretended not to know, Lorna's existence, and Kress did his best to hide it.  Although he and Lorna, the master and disciple, were innocent and had a clear conscience, the relationship between them was a little subtle.  Unexpectedly, Julie would suddenly speak to Lorna, and Kress changed color slightly.  Lorna also showed a look of surprise, and other people who knew about it looked at each other in astonishment, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely awkward.  After being stunned for a moment, Lorna responded: "Yes." Ignoring the different looks of the people around her, Julie said to Lorna openly: "My husband is very confused. I hope you can take more care of your master.  "I understand" Lorna lowered her head, paused and added softly: "Mrs. Julie." "Honey, I" Kress scratched his head anxiously and whispered to Julie.  "If I hadn't known that you hadn't done anything sorry for me, I would have looked good on you a long time ago." Julie said in Kress's ear, and secretly pinched him: "I will settle the score with you when I come back." See Clay  Si looked ashamed, and she added: "But she is such a beautiful little girl. You have done well as an apprentice." "Ahaha" What else could Kress say, but he could only laugh awkwardly.  "Anyway, we must come back safely." Julie sighed.  "Definitely." Kress nodded heavily and turned around to get on the boat.  Lorna saluted Julie and got on the boat, followed by Sol, Raymond and others.  Soon, Drea ordered the sails to be raised, and the "Cang Yun" left the port and headed for Manas Island.  Until very late??, the people seeing off at the pier did not disperse ****************************************  ***************************** "Lord Kress, we are here." After several days of sailing, everyone successfully arrived at their destination.  .  In the distance, the vague shadow of Manas Island appears on the horizon.  Soon, the ship approached the island, and the sailor on the lookout suddenly pointed ahead and said: "Look, it's the ship of the Sidonius sect." Sure enough, in the destroyed port of Manas Island, a ship carrying Sidonius was seen  The sect-marked ship was already docked there.  Not long after, the "Cang Yun" also entered the port.  This was once one of the most prosperous places on Manas Island, but now only a dilapidated scene remains. Fortunately, the port facilities have not been completely destroyed, which is enough for ships to berth.  Drea anchored not far from the Sidonian sect¡¯s ship. After it stopped, everyone came ashore one after another.  From beginning to end, the sailors on the other side's ship turned a blind eye and acted very calmly.  "Leliana?" Walking onto the ruins of the port, Raymond saw the slender figure not far away at a glance.  Hearing his words, the other party turned around, and it turned out to be Bishop Leliana.  Seeing Raymond and his party, she showed a calm smile: "Mr. Raymond, we meet again." "Are you the only one here?" Raymond was a little strange.  For the Sidonian sect, except for the sailors on the ship.  He only saw Leliana. Did the other party not pay so much attention to this duel?  Seemingly sensing Raymond's doubts, Leliana smiled and said: "The Pope originally wanted to send more people to come together, but Mr. Gru refused. He only allowed me to come alone." Raymond was really confused.  The relationship between the two people, so he nodded to express his understanding.  At this time.  Kress asked: "Where is Gru?" Leliana pointed forward: "On the cliff in front, he has been waiting for you for a long time." "Lord." Kress looked at Thor  One glance.  Sol nodded in agreement: "Go." So, Kress left everyone first and walked towards the cliff in the distance.  After walking for a while, Gru's tall figure appeared in front of him.  He was wearing ordinary cloth. This was the first time Kress saw Gru appear without armor. Obviously he also knew that he would not be able to preserve his strength in the battle with Kress.  Gru just turned his back to Kress.  Standing on the cliff by the sea, looking at the rough sea below, the giant sword that never leaves his body is stuck beside him, surrounded by broken ruins.  From Kress¡¯s point of view, Gru¡¯s back looks extremely lonely, just like this cliff standing on the seaside, it seems that nothing in the world can come close.  In fact, in Kress¡¯s impression.  Every time Gru appears, there will be bloody killings.  However, he never had a friend by his side.  Even though people like Cliff and Leliana could boss him around, they couldn't get close to him.  Gru is like a god of death who appears out of thin air and lives alone, even though he is invincible.  But the only person who can accompany him is the lonely shadow behind him.  What is the purpose of such a person¡¯s existence?  What exactly are going on in your mind?  What does he do when he's not fighting?  How did you get through all these years?  Kress is not a sentimental person.  But when he saw Gru's lonely figure, he still couldn't help but sigh for this powerful opponent.  Because, this is really a unique person with too many mysteries.  "You are here." At this time, Gru, who had been turning his back to him, suddenly said: "Why you keep standing there." "Ha, it's nothing." Kress smiled self-consciously and stepped forward.  Go to Gru's side.  "The scenery is nice." He said while looking at the endless sea.  "Yes, it's suitable todiehere." Gru turned his head and gave him a cold look: "Whetherit's you or me" "Maybe." Kress shrugged: "But, I think  "I'm already very powerful." "SoIwill try my best."  "You really can't wait." Kress smiled and put his hand on the hilt of the sword.  At this time, Raymond and his party also walked onto the cliff and stood looking at the two people from a distance.  "Is this about to start?" Raymond said in surprise, sensing the murderous aura between the two.  Kress had just arrived by boat, and Gru seemed to have just arrived as well.  Facing such an important duel, the two of them should rest for a while to regain their energy before starting the fight. How could they be ready to fight as soon as they met.  The rope on the sideEr said: "There is nothing surprising. Both of them are very human. The so-called preparations were made long before arriving here. Now, it is just a matter of course." Leliana also said: "Simple and direct, I think  This is exactly what they expect. " Raymond nodded clearly. Indeed, when they reach the level of Gru and Kress, they can reach their peak state at any time and fight with all their strength.  If you still need to cultivate and prepare, it will look artificial.  Suddenly, the sea breeze on the cliff seemed to suddenly stop, there was no sound between heaven and earth, and a suffocating air of chilling filled the air.  "It's about to begin." This thought came to everyone's mind.  ***************************************************  **************** Clang Kress slowly pulled out the iron weight, and the blade of the sword rubbed against the scabbard, making a sharp sound.  Gru still had his back turned to him, seemingly not reacting to Kress's movements.  Kress drew the sword in his hand, threw away the scabbard, and without warning, just followed the sword and struck Gru in the back.  The beginning seemed casual.  But it's very natural.  Both of them were aware of each other's strength, so they naturally knew how much control they should have in the first blow.  Sure enough, before Kress's sword reached him, Gru had already grabbed the giant sword next to him and turned around.  Then there was a loud bang and the two swords crossed.  Kress's progress was forward, and Gru's luck was counterbalanced. The blades of the two swords made a scraping sound under the pressure of each other.  Since the last time he drank dragon blood, Kress's strength has improved to a higher level, and Gru has obviously been quite prepared during this period.  Therefore, as the first move, both of them chose to test.  After comparing for a moment, and roughly understanding the strength of his opponent, Kress pushed hard.  He used the counter force to jump back a step.  Gru waved his giant sword in front of him, and a cloud of dust immediately rose from the ground.  No more hesitation.  Kress stood still, took a breath slowly, leaned forward slightly, and the five fingers holding the sword moved in a regular rhythm, then tightened, and a sharp light appeared in his eyes.  At the same time, Gru also looked solemn.  The broad sword was tilted in front of him, the tip of the sword inserted into the ground.  The whole person was as motionless as a mountain, confronting Kress.  At this moment, Raymond and others who were watching the battle couldn't help but stop breathing, nervously watching the two people's reactions.  They knew that after the test, the two of them would go all out in their next attack.  In this suffocating solemn atmosphere.  Kress's toes moved slightly forward a small step.  However, it was this small and indelible movement that seemed to turn on a switch. Gru, who had been standing still, suddenly opened his eyes and took a step forward.  He swung his sword to attack Kress first.  Fast forward, Gru stepped on the ground with heavy footsteps, dragging the tip of the giant sword on the ground, leaving a long spark mark.  As the sparks on the tip of the sword flashed fiercely, the giant sword flew up and struck Kress head-on like thunder.  Gru has experienced many battles, but this is the first time he has attacked first in a battle.  The heavy sword power seemed to be able to split the air, and the strong wind it brought up swept around, forming an invisible strong impact.  But Kress seemed to have expected it. As the giant sword faced him, he took a step forward towards Gru. A deep groan came from his throat, and the fighting spirit in his body suddenly spurted out.  The wind mass brought by Gru's giant sword was torn into pieces. The uncontrolled wind immediately flew in all directions, and the surrounding dust rolled up high. Their hair kept flying in the wind.  Then, the two swords collided.  Different from the previous probing attack, Gru used all his strength in this attack, and Kress also used his fighting spirit.  It was like two meteorites flying at high speed colliding together, causing a huge shock immediately.  Bang!  There was no sound of gold and iron clashing. Instead, the two swords made a loud and dull sound when they met. Then a strong impact exploded from around the two men. Sand and stone flew from the cliff, and even the ground shook.  When this vibration reached Raymond and others, it had weakened a lot, but everyone still couldn't help but sway a few times.  At this time, they were more than 50 meters away from the two of them. They thought they were at a safe distance, but they were still affected.  And on the battlefield, when swords crossed each other, Gru and Kress each took a step back.  But the two men didn't pause at all, and immediately charged forward again. The swords in their hands slashed at each other repeatedly, and a muffled sound could be heard, just like two people beating each other with war hammers.  This unyielding confrontation lasted for more than half a minute, and the ground around the two people had completely changed its appearance.  If you look down from mid-air, with the two of them as the center, there is a "blank" circle with a radius of more than ten meters, and all the dust and sandstones have been blown away by the strong sword wind.Outside this circle, the ground inside the circle is clean, just like a natural battlefield marked out for the two of them.  This is the first time that someone has been able to fight against Gru for so long without falling behind in this kind of head-on defense.  But in this kind of head-on fight based solely on strength, Gru always has the upper hand. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? The two of them exchanged three consecutive blows at super high speed. Although Kress did not take a step back, his hands were trembling and the fighting spirit in his body also fluctuated slightly.  He felt a chill in his heart, knowing that he was still weaker than Gru after all in terms of strength.  Secretly thinking that he had no reason to follow Gru's strengths, Kress put aside his fight and changed his strategy in time.  When Gru's next sword struck, Kress did not parry, but stepped aside. At the same time, his feet moved wrongly, and his whole body turned half a circle.  With a bang, Gru's sword hit the ground. In an instant, one-third of the sword was inserted into the rock, and small stones shot out in all directions.  As for Kress, who had turned half a circle against the giant sword, the iron weight in his hand had followed the path of the semicircle, and he slashed towards Gru's neck with his backhand.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
