There were not many people inspecting the territory with Linde this time. Apart from Linde and Nymeria, there were only Nymeria's two twin female attendants, Linde's steward Jon and attendants Asha and Bu. Renee and Balin stayed in Tengshi Town to recuperate. Daisy and Rosso were taken with them. Plus Rossos and his independent soldiers, there were hundreds of people in total.

Because there were not many people, it was easy to organize all the luggage, and it was all done in one morning.

Linde planned to leave in the afternoon, find a place to rest for the night in a village near Tengshi Avenue, and then go directly to Green Valley City on the banks of the Blue Boon River. In the future, they would have to deal with many places in Green Valley City. Let’s take a look first. Look at the attitude of the lord of Green Valley City, and then decide how to treat Green Valley City in the future.

However, just as they were about to set off, the arrival of a man disrupted Linde's plan, and the city sent a bachelor as his advisor.

When he returned to Tengshi Town, Linde immediately wrote a letter to the academy in the name of the Earl of Summer Hall, asking them to appoint a bachelor as his advisor.

However, there was no response to this letter as if it was lost in the sea. Just when Linde wondered whether the letter had been lost by the raven, and was preparing to write another letter before setting off to inspect the territory, the city gave him a silent message. He assigned a maester, which made Linde curious about the origin of this maester.

"Bachelor Keben," Linde immediately realized after listening to the self-introduction of the bachelor in front of him that the white-haired, kind-faced old man in front of him was the Bachelor Keben he knew.

It's just that at this time, he doesn't seem to have been exiled from the city, and he still wears a bachelor's necklace around his neck, but this bachelor's necklace seems to be somewhat different from Cole's knowledge.

In his memory, Qyburn is proficient in necromancy, knows medicine, and can tame ravens, so his chain should be black iron representing ravenology, silver representing medicine, and Valyria representing magic and mysticism. Steel is right, but now the chains around Cobain's neck are gold, which represents economics, and wrought iron, which represents military affairs. There is obviously something wrong with this.

"I have very high requirements for consultants. I will accept whoever is appointed by the city." Linde turned to Qyburn with a serious expression and said, "Now I ask you, Bachelor Qyburn, what knowledge do you know, and why do you think so?" Are you qualified to be my bachelor’s advisor?”

After entering the door, Cobain's eyes fell on the sword of the Lost Knight at Lind's waist. It was not until Lind asked that he reluctantly moved his eyes away from the sword of the Lost Knight, and he looked very seriously. He replied: "Your Majesty, I am proficient in economics and military science, and I can assist you in these two aspects."

"Are you proficient in economics?" Lind smiled and ordered to Jon: "Go to Bert to get a verified account book and give it to Bachelor Qyburn for recalculation."

"Yes, sir." Jon walked out of the tent, and after a while, he came in with a ledger and placed it on the table.

Ever since he heard Linde's words, Cobain could not suppress a look of panic on his face. When he saw the account books placed on the table, his eyes had already begun to glance toward the exit.

Linde pointed at the account book and said, "Let's get started! Bachelor Qoben, let me see your economics ability."

Cobain gritted his teeth and sat down at the table, opened the account book, but did not start.

Nymeria and others on the side also noticed Qyburn's abnormality and put their hands on their weapons.

Finally, Cobain sighed heavily, stood up from the chair, walked to Linde, and said, "Sorry, Lord Earl Linde, I deceived you."

"You are not a bachelor, but an assassin?" Before Linde could say anything, Nymeria looked at Qyburn coldly and asked in a deep voice.

"No, no!" Qyburn shook his head quickly and said, "I am indeed a bachelor, but I was expelled from the city. I am an expelled bachelor."

Hearing Qyburn's words, Nymeria was stunned and her expression improved slightly, because her bachelor advisor Ives was also a bachelor who had his necklace taken back by the city and was expelled.

"For what reason were you expelled?" Linde asked.

Qyburn replied: "Because I study the forbidden knowledge of necromancy."

Linde shook his head and said: "I know that the academy regards all knowledge related to magic as taboo, but this does not mean that the academy does not allow bachelors to learn this knowledge, even evil knowledge such as necromancy. They will still allow bachelors who have this hobby to study, and will not easily expel bachelors who study this knowledge. You'd better tell the truth."

Seeing that he could not get through, Qyburn was silent for a moment and said: "The Academy discovered that I was conducting experiments on living people to study necromancy."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room except Linde showed disgust. It was obvious that this kind of thing was extremely evil in their eyes. Neither the Seven Gods nor the Old Gods would allow such evil. Things exist.

Seeing the expressions of everyone around him, Cobain couldn't help but sigh. He knew that he might not have the chance to stay with Linde, nor would he have the chance to come into contact with his favorite magic.

However, what surprised him was that Linde did not show any expression of disgust, but asked calmly: "Who are the living people you used for experiments?"

Qyburn was stunned and answered truthfully: "Some are death row prisoners, some are already sick and about to die, and some are slaves from the continent of Essos."

Lind pondered for a moment and asked, "Besides necromancy, what other abilities do you have?"

Everyone looked at Linde in surprise. They didn't understand why Linde would be interested in such an evil guy.

Qyburn was also very surprised, but he quickly calmed down and answered truthfully: "I know ravenology. Although I don't have a chain, I am not inferior to a maester who has a chain. I can help you build a crow's nest. I will handle all kinds of information for you. In addition, I also have a medical background and am particularly good at all kinds of trauma." As he spoke, he looked at Bahrain's severed hand and said, "It has been more than ten days since the Bahrain man's arm was injured. But he still needs to be fixed with a bandage. It is obviously not connected properly. If it is completely healed, the arm will not be able to use force, so it is best to reconnect it. "

Lind turned to look at Balin and asked, "How do you feel about the injury on your arm?"

Balin hesitated, nodded and said, "There are indeed some problems."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Linde frowned.

Facing Linde's reprimand, Balin lowered his head and did not dare to speak. His past experiences had made him accustomed to recuperating on his own.

At this time, Moroya suddenly walked in from outside and said directly to Linde: "I heard that you were going to inspect the territory, why didn't you notify me?"

Before Lind could answer, Nymeria said first, "Aren't you in the laboratory? We won't disturb you."

"Don't worry, those experiments are not very important. As Lord Linde's advisor, patrolling your territory is the most important thing for me right now." Moroya rolled his eyes at Nymeria and glanced at everyone in the room. After a circle, after seeing Cobain on the side, he was stunned and said: "Cobain, why are you here?"

"Miss Moroya." Coburn seemed a little afraid of Moroya and saluted Moroya very respectfully.

"When did you become a bachelor of economics?" Moroya asked when he saw the eye-catching gold chain around Cobain's neck.

"Well, it belongs to someone else." Cobain replied, lowering his head.

Moroya walked over, picked up the bachelor's necklace around Qyburn's neck, looked at it, and said, "Bachelor Omer? I remember you have a friend named Omer."

Cobain said nothing.

"Is he still alive?" Moroya asked again.

Cobain replied: "He's still alive, but he won't be able to walk in the future."

"You really haven't changed at all." Moroya turned to look at Linde and said: "This guy is the most emotionless person I have ever seen. He will not have feelings for anyone as long as it is beneficial to his research project. He will do whatever he wants, even if it is to dissect the person while he is still alive, or to attack the people around him. "

After hearing what Moroya said, everyone in the room showed extreme disgust.

"Since this guy is so evil, why not execute him directly?" Nymeria frowned and said.

Others agreed.

Cobain was not intimidated, he just lowered his head and said nothing, let alone a word of defense for himself.

"Do you think the school city doesn't know what this guy is doing? The school city knows everything, but it doesn't expel or deal with this guy. It's entirely because this guy has the best medical skills in the entire school city. He treated him more than ten years ago In terms of trauma, he is already number one in the school, and I'm afraid it will be even better now." Moroya looked at Qyburn and said, "He took the initiative to come here because of the magic you have mastered. This guy is very good at magic. He is also very obsessed with knowledge such as witchcraft and witchcraft. Although his formal knowledge is very general, he also has very unique insights. I happened to encounter some problems in my recent research, and he is just the right assistant. "

"Do you want me to take him in?" Linde asked seriously.

Moroya shook his head and said, "No, it's up to you to decide whether to accept this person or not. I'm just giving you some reference suggestions."

Linde looked at Cobain, thought for a while, and said: "I'll give you a chance to restore Balin's hand to its original state. If you succeed, then you will stay, but even if you stay, you must Follow my rules. First, experiments on living people must stop. Secondly, all your projects must be approved by me. Finally, you must hand over your trauma treatment methods and train a group of medical teams to treat trauma for me. ”

"Linde..." Nymeria looked at Linde with a puzzled expression, but Linde raised his hand to stop her.

Linde asked in a deep voice: "Bachelor Qoben, do you accept it?"

"I accept." A smile appeared on Cobain's face.

"I'll leave him to you, Moroya." After Lind made his decision, he said to Bahrain: "You should go and receive treatment from Coburn immediately."

"Yes, sir." Balin nodded.

Moroya suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here and said: "By the way, I came here for you to patrol the territory..."

Linde interrupted Moroya and said: "You need to take care of Cobain. You shouldn't have time to go to the border with us. Moreover, it may take a month or two for us to go there this time. Can you bear it? Do any research.”

Moloa wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Linde, who said that the selection of personnel had been finalized and could not be changed.

Moroya looked at Lind angrily, then at the smiling Nymeria next to him, snorted, turned and left the room, with Qyburn and Balin following closely behind her.

After Nymeria saw Qyburn leave, she expressed concern: "You should not recruit people like Qyburn as your subordinates. If the evil things he did were spread, it would be detrimental to your reputation."

"The matter is not as serious as you think. Even if it spreads, it doesn't matter. The Church of the Seven Gods will help me give a perfect explanation. For example, a demon will no longer do evil under the constraints of the Chosen One." Linde He said disapprovingly: "Besides, people like Cobain are too dangerous. Instead of letting him roam around unchecked, it would be better for me to control him and make good use of his abilities."

After hearing what Lind said, Nymeria also felt that it made sense and stopped trying to persuade him.

Lind ordered: "Jon, you should immediately select a group of people who are smarter and good at learning to come to Moroya to learn medical skills from Qyburn."

"Wouldn't this cause opposition from the city?" Jon asked after hesitating.

"It will definitely arouse opposition from the school city." Bachelor Ives next to Nymeria said: "The school city allows pharmacists and herbalists to exist, and it will not prevent pharmacists and herbalists from teaching apprentices, but it will definitely not allow them to exist. The medical knowledge of the Citadel is passed on to others in this way."

Linde said solemnly: "There is no need to learn the medical knowledge of the city. I only need his knowledge of treating trauma."

From very early on, Linde had the idea of ​​establishing a medical team dedicated to treating wounded soldiers, because according to his research on battle losses in all wars, the vast majority of casualties were not caused directly on the battlefield, but were caused by the battle. The injury did not recover, and the wound festered, causing various complications and died. With such a team of military doctors accompanying the army, the non-combat attrition of his soldiers will be greatly reduced.

However, there are no professional doctors in other kingdoms. When nobles are sick, they go to bachelors. When common people are sick, they go to herbalists, pharmacists, monks from the Church of the Seven Gods, and wizards and witches in the countryside.

Linde once specifically looked for some pharmacists and herbalists to see if they were suitable. After seeing their methods of treating patients, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​having pharmacists and herbalists form a medical team.

After that, he found the monks from the Church of the Seven Gods, and after learning that the monks' method of treating patients was bloodletting and prayer, he also eliminated the monks from the Church of the Seven Gods.

Now Cobain's appearance has just filled this gap. Although Linde has not yet seen how brilliant Cobain's medical skills are, with Moroya as a guarantee, he believes that even if Cobain's medical skills cannot be compared with modern medical skills, It should also be better than the medical skills in this world, which is enough to form a medical team.

On the other side, when Jon brought the selected people outside Moroya's exclusive stone tower and explained his purpose to Moroya and Qyburn, Qyburn, who was treating Bahrain, hesitated for a moment, with hesitation on his face. expression.

"I advise you to follow Linde's ideas and try to show your value so that you can get what you want." Moroya seemed to see through Cobain's thoughts, reminded him, and pointed out Pointing to the dragon rune necklace around his neck.

Seeing this situation, Coburn seemed to have made up his mind, nodded, and accepted the apprenticeship forced upon him by Linde.
