Chapter 201 [Viscount Peace] in Troubled Times
For Mukron, his real fief had not been realised yet. He, the newly-baked lord of Kubalun, had not even had time to set foot on his own land, and the area of Kubalun had already fallen under the iron hooves of barbarians. .
In this regard, Mu Kelong can only sigh, life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky-is his luck really unlucky?
On the other hand, Lewis is also very concerned about this shocking news.
As the golden general of the Empire of the Undead, and also a direct descendant of a noble family, he is both politically astute and military-aware.
He realized that the new emperor of the Eastern Angel Empire, Caesar XV, would most likely give up some of the empire's interests in the north, seek a truce with the Netherworld Undead Empire, and then concentrate his forces in the western region to fight the rebels of the Western Angel Empire to the death!
Then, during this period, the Jinshanhou family must obtain some of the larger benefits!
What happened next was not as expected by Lewis, the new emperor of the Eastern Angel Empire, Caesar XV, sent a heavyweight messenger to the northern battlefield to seek an armistice agreement with the Empire of the Undead.
On the way, Mu Kelong learned that the messenger sent by the Eastern Angel Empire was actually his old acquaintance, the Golden Griffon Archduke [Wilson] who had given him a copy of [Golden Leadership].
As the Holy Angel Empire (East), the hereditary first-class grand duke [Wilson Ron Franklin], he was originally the military marshal of the Conran Duhufu in the middle of the empire.
But because of his last mission to the East Ruhr grassland, he successfully united with the centaur Khan, and he was transferred to the empire and was promoted to the prime minister because of his merits.
And this time, as the Prime Minister of the Eastern Angel Empire, he is on the northern battlefield, and his confidence and determination to seek an armistice is evident.
To this end, after discussing with Luist, Mukron decided to find a way to facilitate this.
For Mukron, the barbarians have occupied his territory, the Kubalon area, and the hatred is deadly!
And the culprit responsible for this result was the Sixth Emperor Uncle of the former Holy Angel Empire.
A scoundrel and thief who has been in trouble with the barbarian empire and the hell demons, now the so-called Emperor of the Western Angel Empire——【Wilson I】!
Therefore, Mu Kelong hoped in his heart that the Eastern Angel Empire would succeed in suppressing the rebellion, recapture the western region, and block the barbarians' retreat.
In this matter, Luist's interests are the same as Mukron's. The current situation in the northern battlefield is that the Angel Empire joins forces with the Centaur Khanate on the Eastern Ruhr Prairie to jointly deal with the Nether Undead Empire.
It's hard to say who wins and who loses, but the biggest loss is the western theater controlled by his Jinshanhou family.
Because the Centaur Khanate's 100,000 heavy bows and cavalry are specially responsible for dealing with the troops in the western theater of the Netherworld's undead empire.
If a truce can be brokered, Lewis will not only save more power for the family, but also gain greater benefits for the family.
It just so happened that among the two of them, Mu Kelong had an old relationship with the Prime Minister of the Eastern Angel Empire, the Golden Griffon Archduke [Wilson], and Luist was the military general of the Netherworld Empire.
The two of them worked together to mediate the matter, and I believe that the possibility of a smooth signing of the armistice agreement will be greatly improved.
Soon, the two hit it off and immediately decided on the matter.
At this moment, the two are in the territory of the Angel Empire, and not far from the northern battlefield.
Luist reached out and grabbed Mu Kelong directly, and Mu Kelong, who was carrying several hundred kilograms of equipment, was as light as a feather in his hand.
The next moment, Lewis stood up straight from the ground, soaring into the sky, stepping on the clouds, and heading north...
After about half a day's effort, the two came to the sky above the northern battlefield.
At this time, because of the presence of the Prime Minister of the Eastern Angel Empire and the Golden Griffon Archduke [Wilson], the atmosphere of war on the northern battlefield changed almost in a short period of time.
For a time, everyone was looking forward to the early signing of the armistice agreement, from the leading generals to the civilian soldiers.
But as an ambassador of peace, Archduke Wilson himself was far less optimistic than those below imagined.
After all, the Holy Angel Empire and the Netherworld Undead Empire are a feud, not to mention whether the Netherworld Undead Empire is willing to agree to a truce at this critical time, even within the Eastern Angel Empire, I am afraid that there are also many careerists and vested interests who will secretly carry out obstruct.
On this evening, when the sun was setting, the captain of the guard suddenly walked into the gate with a strange expression and reported an unimaginable thing to Archduke Wilson.
"His Royal Highness, there are two people outside asking to see you. One of them is the dwarf mercenary [Mukron Hegel] that you have seen on the East Ruhr grassland."
"There is another person who claims to be [Luisette Hidado], but as we all know, Lewis is a golden skeleton, and this person is a flesh-and-blood middle-aged man..."
"However, the two of them stated that they came here to help His Royal Highness to facilitate the armistice agreement..."
After hearing these words, Archduke Wilson was stunned for a moment, and then startled again—how could these two people who can't fight with each other come together, or for the same purpose?
Soon, the old and sturdy Archduke Wilson woke up with a faint smile on his face.
Mu Kelong is nothing but a matchmaker, but Luist is a key figure who can break the game, so he should not be neglected!
So the smile on Archduke Wilson's face became brighter and he laughed loudly; "The visitor is a guest, please invite them both in!"
...
As Archduke Wilson had expected, Mulcolon was purely a middleman, and it was Lewis who really played a role.
As the golden general of the Western Theater of the Empire of the Netherworld, the elder of the House of Lords, and the second son of the Marquis of Jinshan, Louise's identity is currently ranked among the top five and three giants in the opponent's camp in the entire northern battlefield.
With this golden general coming forward to reconcile, the Holy Angel Empire and the Nether Undead Empire successfully signed a friendly armistice agreement.
The main contents of the agreement include the following points-
First, the Holy Angel Empire opened the town of Hechuan on the east bank of Beihai Lake, retaining only a small number of garrison troops to maintain basic law and order, and set up a free and fair trade zone here, and no transaction tax will be charged for ten years.
Second, the Holy Angel Empire and the Empire of the Undead are friendly neighbors. Based on the principle of friendship and mutual assistance, the relatively wealthy Holy Angel Empire will provide the relatively poor Empire of the Undead with a certain amount of money, materials and daily necessities every year from now on. and many more.
Third, the Holy Angel Empire, the Centaur Khanate, and the Alpine Tribe Alliance will no longer carry out targeted military operations against the Empire of the Undead, and the Empire of the Undead will also stop the force of the above forces.
Fourth, if a misunderstanding between the two countries leads to border friction in the future, the army of the Holy Angel Empire will unconditionally evade the Netherworld Empire three times, with each retreat not less than 30 kilometers.
Fifth...
Sixth...
All in all, this armistice agreement saves face for the "relatively wealthy" Holy Angel Empire, and also brings tangible benefits to the "relatively poor" ghostly undead empire.
Both parties are very happy, and they both think that they have made a lot of money, even blood!
For this reason, Archduke Wilson's reputation in the Eastern Angel Empire is growing, and Luist, his family behind the Jinshan Hou family, and his allies have also reaped a lot of hidden benefits, but the specific content of the benefits depends on Not to be known to outsiders...
And even Mu Kelong, the intermediary who played soy sauce in the audience, also won the honorary title of the Holy Angel Empire [Viscount Peace].
Although it is only a false title and cannot be hereditary, it is still a viscount, and he is also the viscount of the most powerful country in the Titan Continent. This gold content is absolutely pure!
Even in the future, if Mu Kelong is sent to other countries and factions, the honorary title of the Holy Angel Empire [Viscount of Peace] will probably be on top of the status of his other two hereditary real barons.
In addition to the false name, Mu Kelong also got real benefits.
A piece of equipment, a strategy skill book, and a combat skill book.
[Golden Fighting Griffon's Feather Leggings] (one-star quality, blue gilt extraordinary strategic treasure)

...
There is no doubt that this pair of [Golden Battle Griffin's Feather Leggings] is a small gift from His Royal Highness Wilson, the Golden Griffon Grand Duke, to Mukron.
It is worth mentioning that the current system has expired, so the skill descriptions for this pair of leggings are all given with the equipment.
Of course, the form of expression is relatively simple, but Mu Kelong can make up his own mind and transform it into a familiar game interface mode...
In addition to this pair of leggings, His Royal Highness the Golden Griffon Archduke Wilson also gifted Mu Kelong a strategic occupational skill he coveted - [Golden Archery]!
Archery and Guidance are sister skills. The function of Archery is to increase the damage of long-range attacks, and the function of Guidance is to increase the effective range of long-range units.
Both can act on both physical ranged attacks and magic ranged attacks at the same time.
In other versions of the Heroes game, Archery is often present, but Channeling is not.
In the current Heroes of Invincibility game, because of striving for authenticity, arms cannot be superimposed in a grid, so the strategic position of long-range arms has been unprecedentedly strengthened.
In theory, all ranged attacks can focus fire on the same target within range, but melee attacks cannot!
After all, the melee attack can only be approached and hit again. If there is a friendly army in front of it, it will not be able to hit the target.
Therefore, game designers have limited the range of long-range occupations, which is also the reason why the effective range of low-level long-range arms is often not high.
This also led to the emergence of the guidance technique that increases the range. Although the guidance technique cannot directly increase the long-range damage, the strategic significance of increasing the range is actually no less than directly increasing the long-range damage, and even increasing the range is more important than increasing the damage!
In the early days, Mu Kelong relied on a golden guide to open up wasteland and kill monsters, and he was invincible and invincible.
But he has always longed for the companion volume of Golden Guidance, Golden Archery—even if golden skills are rare, even ordinary archery is fine!
At this moment, he got what he wanted - he finally gathered the two necessary magical skills for commanders of long-range arms!
Soon, the golden skill book in his hand suddenly weathered and turned into countless gold powder quicksand, which sprinkled from the fingers, and finally disappeared...
【Golden Archery】(Elementary)
Skill description: The base damage of the entire army's long-range attacks is increased by 10%, and it also takes effect on physical long-range attacks and magic long-range attacks.
A random enhancement effect is added to the golden skill——

...
Whether it's the wings of the golden griffin, or the skills of the sisters, the last book of combat occupation skills with a golden cover is the thing that can truly improve Mu Kelong's own strength!
Although he knew that Grand Duke Golden Griffin made a move, there must be no rank, but after seeing the name of the last skill, Mu Kelong still took a breath——
What the hell!
What an awesome skill!
Boss atmosphere!
