What happened that night, Otto and Niya soon knew.
They had to readily admit the fact that their son had become a man before he was an adult. Through this incident, they also felt that Lumia was worth getting close to as never before.
This used to be an extravagant hope, but now Otto is beginning to think of the beauty of becoming a grandpa.
Just like spring is coming, the sea ice and snow will dissolve, and everything will be wonderful.
But Lumia was never Rurik's wife that Otto recognized.
Old Ligus of the White Tree Manor in Novgorod, that old guy actually had a very smart little daughter.
That girl, Svetlana is approaching adulthood, right?
Because of the war, Otto has not traveled to Novgorod for a whole year, and he doesn't even know how the girl has grown up. In the new year, he intends to go to the east for a good inspection, especially to see if Svetlana is beautiful enough.
This is still the world of looking at faces, Lumia's appearance does not please Otto. But because the first servant of Rurik became his first woman, Otto strongly looked forward to the result next year.
The power of man has awakened!
Regarding this kind of thing, there is only a difference between zero times and countless times. The marrow-knowing Rurik is completely instinctive to pursue the ultimate happiness. Of course, it is the goal to let her breed hereditary high priest.
By the standards of this era, Lumia has long been an adult. She is almost sixteen years old, and by the standards of a deer breeder, she should have been a mother a long time ago. Therefore, based on this understanding, this girl will appear eager.
time and time again, five times in ten days. Rurik was comfortable himself, and he was very sure of his abilities.
This is like shooting an arrow, shooting at a target many times, as long as there is an arrow on the target, it is successful.
This is the sixth time, Lumia is fully aware that her man is only young. He is a bear with huge potential, and now he is showing strong strength, he can only bear it passively, after all, this is what he wants.
At night, she rested on her stomach, Rurik covered it with a blanket, and sat quietly beside the bed to calm down.
"Are you satisfied now?"
Lumia whispered, "You... want me to be a mother this year..."
"Not this year, but next year. Nine months or nearly ten months, next year, around the vernal equinox priest, you are the mother."
In the night, Lumia smiled quietly, "It's better to hurry up, I have to preside over the priest."
As it is said that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, Rurik feels that he is full of energy, and he is afraid that he will be empty again. During this time, he has been eating meat desperately.
The sea ice is already very weak, and the major events in the plan should also be carried out. The relationship with Lumia is only a private matter within the family, the next thing is related to the great exploration of the future of the Ross people.
Otto, he didn't learn of Lurik's plan to visit Balmerk's allies by sea until it was April.
Is there a smooth waterway from Roseburg to Balmerk? Will there be a shocking storm in the middle? Will it be attacked by the enemy?
It is true that the warrior who conquered the sea should not be afraid of these risks, but the explorer is actually his own son! He clearly learned of Rurik's decision, and suddenly Otto couldn't help but think carefully. I'm afraid this kid and Lumia have a different approach. The so-called assault left the family back up.
A meeting was held in the Duke’s mansion, and Rurik needed the elite elders of the tribe to explain their determination, so that the adventure seemed no longer dangerous.
It is clearly past mid-April, this year's Spring Festival is obviously coming even later. Is the thawing of the bay entering May again? Is coldness the norm? Last year's warmth was just a flash in the pan? I'm afraid that this year's harvest season, the Mälaren area will have a shortage of grain again.
Rosburg suffered another terrible freezing rain. The soft snow was turned into ice on a large scale. If it weren't for a large amount of wheat reserves, the reindeer herd and Mianyang would starve to death because of the difficulty in obtaining forage.
Otto said with a deep face, "Leurik, everyone is here, now tell everyone about your plan."
Liulik looked around, and apart from the old guys of the Ross tribe, the most important guests were the Brothers Biyuni and Froki.
He came here prepared, and soon made another gesture. The four maids took a huge pine board and walked into the hall together, and the board was gently placed among the people.
Everyone stretched their heads. They noticed that the brown-white board exuding a strong smell of turpentine, on which the unique texture was depicted by the toner.
But, what exactly is on the board?
Suddenly, Otto suddenly realized that he was stabbed in his leg. He stood up abruptly, pointed to the board and exclaimed in surprise, "This is! Our world? This is more detailed than the previous sketches. What are you? God asks for a wooden board, is that to make this?"
Lurik also stood up: "Yes, this is a part of our world, at least a small world we live in."
Lurik moved out is a map of Northern Europe, its area is close to one square.
This map is completely based on his inner memory, coupled with some key figures such as the old Danish Eric, and learned some knowledge about Danish geography, so as to depict the Nordic world in as detailed as possible.
The entire Scandinavia and Kola Peninsula, the entire Jutland Peninsula, the Eastern Land of Finland, and some clearly identified islands and archipelagos are all on the map.
is on the northwestern edge of the map, where a small island is specially marked, namely Iceland.
The British Isles is the main depiction in the southwest of the map, and there is also the Dutch area south of Jutland, which is the so-called "Greater Friesland".
On the map, the names of some settlements are marked in detail. All settlements in the Duchy of Ross are marked in the most detailed, as well as the proven locations of Hezeby, Schleswig, Kalmar and Borgholm, Bergen, and Narvik Fjord. As for Novgorod, it was arranged by Rurik in the southeast corner of the map, and the corresponding name was engraved.
Even Otto has never intuitively understood the structure of the "known world". This unprecedented huge map drawn by Rurik directly helps everyone open up the perspective of God!
Lurik lay down and pointed at the islands, fjords, rivers, and settlements on the map, and introduced them one by one.
"If we take the sea route, we can of course reach Balmerk. We pass through the strait controlled by the Danes and enter the vast western sea. We will first enter Oslo, follow the coastline northward, and arrive at Bergen, the core of the Norwegian. , Continue north to arrive at Balmerk. If we start from Balmerk and continue eastward, we will get my winter camp, Fort Murman." Ruriek directly described a route, and the viewers were all shocked and suspicious.
Otto’s aging heart is beating wildly. His arrival in the Öre fishery controlled by the Danes in his life is already the limit to the south.
"Can this work? Are you sure that this route exists?"
Father’s suspicion is very reasonable. Neither the Ross nor the Balmerks can judge the rationality of this route. In fact, Rurik is also very skeptical. He must walk cautiously through Jutland and the attached islands. The risks are huge. It's just that he feels that headless flies are running around, as long as they walk along the coastline of the peninsula, they will be able to pass through the key strait into the Atlantic Ocean.
"I can do it!" Rurik made an impeccable rhetoric with great confidence. This is the knowledge that Odin rewarded us with Rose, and we can know the structure of the earth and ocean. God has given us the opportunity, and we must seize the opportunity. "
Otto eased a little from the shock: "This is indeed the truth, but... you have to pass through the strait controlled by the Danes. You call for no war this year, why should..."
"War? No. I will not attack Denmark, just pass through their control area. I will take the Aphrodite with a lot of cargo to go to Balmerk to do business. The Danes dare to stop us, then fight. "
Rurik had clenched his fists while speaking, and everyone could see that what he said was true.
Everyone who has gone through the previous naval battles knows the amazing combat effectiveness of the Aphrodite. The bigger happy event will be about ten days later, and the other two big ships will be launched.
Lurik’s words are more than that. Instead of convincing everyone that their risk is not high, it is better to convince them that this adventure is just a great beginning.
Human nature is greedy. As long as everyone believes that the ocean-going routes are rewarded by gods and that the gold and silver that can be caught by adventure is huge, everyone dare to abandon the risks.
Lurik pointed directly at the British Isles, especially to a clear point. "This is the source of Briton slaves. The place I am pointing to is called London. There are a lot of treasures and rich land here! We can make a fortune if we attack here! If we occupy this place permanently, our immigrants can get it. A steady stream of wheat."
These remarks are actually for the Bijuni brothers, and Rurik has something to follow. He pointed to the small island to the northwest of the map, "This is an island of ice and snow. It is extremely cold. But it is also dense with seals and herrings. Area. But anyone who dares to continue westward can reach a warm and rich new world."
When the Bijuni brothers were overwintering in the Arctic, they basically knew these things from Rülic, and they are still excited after hearing it again.
Otto, Harrodsson, Arik and others were also very excited. After all, no one can refuse the piles of gold and the hills made of wheat grains.
"Well! I agree with your adventure. The Balmerks' salt is really good salt, and we need it extremely." Otto was the first to affirm that he could not stop his son's adventure. Do not! Why stop it? A person who is inspired to conquer a huge world must take courageous risks.
Brother Bijuni must go home during the warm period. Relying on Rurik's description, it is clear that it is faster to go home by sea. With the strength of the big ship, the journey is probably not dangerous.
Bijuni hurriedly replied: "The Lord Duke of Ross is very true. We and Rurik swear to Odin as brothers, and I agree with the wishes of the Rurik brothers on this trip. We will go by sea. You Rurik's various goods Please ship, we Balmerks will buy everything. And my sister..."
"Your sister?" Otto suddenly noticed something.
"My sister Nolan, I promised her to Brother Liurik. She is coming to Roseburg. She doesn't like to walk over the snow-capped mountains for another month. It must be the best to return by sea."
Otto nodded, then laughed. He slapped Biyuni on the shoulder, "Okay, your sister will come over, I will treat her as a daughter. Isn't she called Nolan? My son Rurik has become a man in advance, and your sister will soon Being a mother makes the alliance between our two races stronger."
Biyuni was very happy, because this embarrassed him and had to accompany him with a smiley face.
Otto slapped his thigh, "Just do it! Bring a lot of cargo to Balmerk! If you encounter an attack by the Danes, beat them back! But..." Otto calmed down a bit again, "Liurik, after all, it is Danes. You have to choose a group of capable fighters to board the ship and bring sufficient supplies, especially weapons! A large number of torsion slingshots and crossbows are installed."
Liurik let out a long sigh of relief, "I will, no enemy ship is my opponent."
"Then I wish you great success, too." Arik congratulated excitedly, "There is also news that your sister-in-law Asraki's belly is finally getting bigger, and I will take her to Fort Shilla in the summer."
"Yes. I'm going to Novgorod, too." Otto said, but his expression was clear and there was something to be said.
"Go east and ask for tribute? Dad, you are very old, maybe you don't have to be too reluctant. Arik can take the lead."
"Do you think I'm old?" Otto stroked his white beard with a wry smile, and said, "Remember that Svetlana?"
Rick was clever, "That girl? You mentioned it."
"Remember, that's the wife I arranged for you, don't ignore it. She is very beautiful, and she is ten years old now. I will bring her back this time. Regardless of whether Rigus agrees or not, I just want to be here. Take that girl over this year. Boy, you are indeed a good child, and indeed my good son. Among a dozen wives and concubines, don’t just spoil Rumia. Once the other women reach their age, you can do it! Understand? "
Otto said, everyone laughed.
Leurik was not at all embarrassed, he slapped his chest, "Come on then! Anyway, the children born are your grandsons, you don't have too many, and I don't feel tired at all."
The room was filled with happy laughter again, and then, everyone began to discuss the private affairs of Rurik without hesitation.
After all, Lumia, the first wife and concubine to be fortunate, is Rose’s high priest! This meaning is extraordinary!
Everyone likes to chew their tongues **** these things they love to hear. Otto was there, and they all praised Rurik for not only the wisdom bestowed by the gods, but also a part of the magical powers. An eleven-year-old boy can visit his wife and concubine up to six times in twelve days. In their traditional concept, this is stronger than many twenty-year-old boys.
Of course, they didn't know that Rurik was expecting to be in a state of overnutrition. He used his excess power in combat training before, and now he has a brand new window of venting.
Harrodsson suddenly realized: "Ah! What I said, the most recent temple opening day ~ www.novelhall.com ~ the high priest sitting at my door, she occasionally limped when she stood up and walked. Was this the reason? No wonder you have to sit for a long time."
I heard, a group of old guys in the room started laughing presumptuously and madly...
Expedition to the West and determining the route to the Balmerk tribe is another way for Rurik to vent his powerful power.
Ask yourself, I’m too irritating to Lumia’s behavior too often. The spring festival is coming soon, and the ice and snow will melt into the sea. Then the ritual must be presided over by her!
Not only that, the two large ships have completed the installation of sails and anchors, and even the slips into the ocean are ready!
Two ships of the same class as the Aphrora, the Gurdot and the Spellosville, they both nailed chalky mud-painted planks on the bows of the ship’s hull numbers, ship names, and Only the strong men are left to pull into the ocean together, and this is also the most glorious project during the big sacrifice!
Lu Mia should have a good training for a while.
The ice layer is getting thinner and thinner, and seal catchers claim that a large number of sea ice cracks have appeared in distant seas, and the work of catching seals is becoming more and more dangerous.
This is actually a good thing, which means that the voyage is about to begin. The reality was in front of him, and Rurik had no intention of continuing to toss Rumia. He made a list and began to send people to the ship to ship the goods that were waiting to be delivered to Balmerk, such as a batch of bear skins, deer skins, and mink. There is also a yellow-white soap with a sulfur smell.
Otto’s advice also reminded him, to make a new weapon? of course!
Lurik still intends to continue to make a fuss about the torsion weapon. This time he decided to stick to the young blacksmith apprentices, and made the "wild donkey catapult" into a new type of shipborne tactical weapon. He has arranged for his subordinates to start operations!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

Lumia whispered, "You... want me to be a mother this year..." "Not this year, but next year. Nine months or nearly ten months, next year, around the vernal equinox priest, you are the mother." In the night, Lumia smiled quietly, "It's better to hurry up, I have to preside over the priest." As it is said that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, Rurik feels that he is full of energy, and he is afraid that he will be empty again. During this time, he has been eating meat desperately.The sea ice is already very weak, and the major events in the plan should also be carried out. The relationship with Lumia is only a private matter within the family, the next thing is related to the great exploration of the future of the Ross people. Otto, he didn't learn of Lurik's plan to visit Balmerk's allies by sea until it was April.Is there a smooth waterway from Roseburg to Balmerk? Will there be a shocking storm in the middle? Will it be attacked by the enemy? It is true that the warrior who conquered the sea should not be afraid of these risks, but the explorer is actually his own son! He clearly learned of Rurik's decision, and suddenly Otto couldn't help but think carefully. I'm afraid this kid and Lumia have a different approach. The so-called assault left the family back up. A meeting was held in the Duke's mansion, and Rurik needed the elite elders of the tribe to explain their determination, so that the adventure seemed no longer dangerous. It is clearly past mid-April, this year's Spring Festival is obviously coming even later. Is the thawing of the bay entering May again? Is coldness the norm? Last year's warmth was just a flash in the pan? I'm afraid that this year's harvest season, the Mlaren area will have a shortage of grain again.Rosburg suffered another terrible freezing rain. The soft snow was turned into ice on a large scale. If it weren't for a large amount of wheat reserves, the reindeer herd and Mianyang would starve to death because of the difficulty in obtaining forage. Otto said with a deep face, "Leurik, everyone is here, now tell everyone about your plan."Liulik looked around, and apart from the old guys of the Ross tribe, the most important guests were the Brothers Biyuni and Froki.He came here prepared, and soon made another gesture. The four maids took a huge pine board and walked into the hall together, and the board was gently placed among the people. Everyone stretched their heads. They noticed that the brown-white board exuding a strong smell of turpentine, on which the unique texture was depicted by the toner. But, what exactly is on the board?Suddenly, Otto suddenly realized that he was stabbed in his leg. He stood up abruptly, pointed to the board and exclaimed in surprise, "This is! Our world? This is more detailed than the previous sketches. What are you? God asks for a wooden board, is that to make this?"Lurik also stood up: "Yes, this is a part of our world, at least a small world we live in."Lurik moved out is a map of Northern Europe, its area is close to one square. This map is completely based on his inner memory, coupled with some key figures such as the old Danish Eric, and learned some knowledge about Danish geography, so as to depict the Nordic world in as detailed as possible. The entire Scandinavia and Kola Peninsula, the entire Jutland Peninsula, the Eastern Land of Finland, and some clearly identified islands and archipelagos are all on the map. is on the northwestern edge of the map, where a small island is specially marked, namely Iceland. The British Isles is the main depiction in the southwest of the map, and there is also the Dutch area south of Jutland, which is the so-called "Greater Friesland". On the map, the names of some settlements are marked in detail. All settlements in the Duchy of Ross are marked in the most detailed, as well as the proven locations of Hezeby, Schleswig, Kalmar and Borgholm, Bergen, and Narvik Fjord. As for Novgorod, it was arranged by Rurik in the southeast corner of the map, and the corresponding name was engraved. Even Otto has never intuitively understood the structure of the "known world". This unprecedented huge map drawn by Rurik directly helps everyone open up the perspective of God!Lurik lay down and pointed at the islands, fjords, rivers, and settlements on the map, and introduced them one by one."If we take the sea route, we can of course reach Balmerk. We pass through the strait controlled by the Danes and enter the vast western sea. We will first enter Oslo, follow the coastline northward, and arrive at Bergen, the core of the Norwegian. , Continue north to arrive at Balmerk. If we start from Balmerk and continue eastward, we will get my winter camp, Fort Murman." Ruriek directly described a route, and the viewers were all shocked and suspicious. Otto's aging heart is beating wildly. His arrival in the re fishery controlled by the Danes in his life is already the limit to the south. "Can this work? Are you sure that this route exists?" Father's suspicion is very reasonable. Neither the Ross nor the Balmerks can judge the rationality of this route. In fact, Rurik is also very skeptical. He must walk cautiously through Jutland and the attached islands. The risks are huge. It's just that he feels that headless flies are running around, as long as they walk along the coastline of the peninsula, they will be able to pass through the key strait into the Atlantic Ocean. "I can do it!" Rurik made an impeccable rhetoric with great confidence. This is the knowledge that Odin rewarded us with Rose, and we can know the structure of the earth and ocean. God has given us the opportunity, and we must seize the opportunity. " Otto eased a little from the shock: "This is indeed the truth, but... you have to pass through the strait controlled by the Danes. You call for no war this year, why should...""War? No. I will not attack Denmark, just pass through their control area. I will take the Aphrodite with a lot of cargo to go to Balmerk to do business. The Danes dare to stop us, then fight. " Rurik had clenched his fists while speaking, and everyone could see that what he said was true. Everyone who has gone through the previous naval battles knows the amazing combat effectiveness of the Aphrodite. The bigger happy event will be about ten days later, and the other two big ships will be launched.Lurik's words are more than that. Instead of convincing everyone that their risk is not high, it is better to convince them that this adventure is just a great beginning. Human nature is greedy. As long as everyone believes that the ocean-going routes are rewarded by gods and that the gold and silver that can be caught by adventure is huge, everyone dare to abandon the risks.Lurik pointed directly at the British Isles, especially to a clear point. "This is the source of Briton slaves. The place I am pointing to is called London. There are a lot of treasures and rich land here! We can make a fortune if we attack here! If we occupy this place permanently, our immigrants can get it. A steady stream of wheat."These remarks are actually for the Bijuni brothers, and Rurik has something to follow. He pointed to the small island to the northwest of the map, "This is an island of ice and snow. It is extremely cold. But it is also dense with seals and herrings. Area. But anyone who dares to continue westward can reach a warm and rich new world." When the Bijuni brothers were overwintering in the Arctic, they basically knew these things from Rlic, and they are still excited after hearing it again. Otto, Harrodsson, Arik and others were also very excited. After all, no one can refuse the piles of gold and the hills made of wheat grains. "Well! I agree with your adventure. The Balmerks' salt is really good salt, and we need it extremely." Otto was the first to affirm that he could not stop his son's adventure. Do not! Why stop it? A person who is inspired to conquer a huge world must take courageous risks. Brother Bijuni must go home during the warm period. Relying on Rurik's description, it is clear that it is faster to go home by sea. With the strength of the big ship, the journey is probably not dangerous.Bijuni hurriedly replied: "The Lord Duke of Ross is very true. We and Rurik swear to Odin as brothers, and I agree with the wishes of the Rurik brothers on this trip. We will go by sea. You Rurik's various goods Please ship, we Balmerks will buy everything. And my sister..." "Your sister?" Otto suddenly noticed something. "My sister Nolan, I promised her to Brother Liurik. She is coming to Roseburg. She doesn't like to walk over the snow-capped mountains for another month. It must be the best to return by sea." Otto nodded, then laughed. He slapped Biyuni on the shoulder, "Okay, your sister will come over, I will treat her as a daughter. Isn't she called Nolan? My son Rurik has become a man in advance, and your sister will soon Being a mother makes the alliance between our two races stronger." Biyuni was very happy, because this embarrassed him and had to accompany him with a smiley face.Otto slapped his thigh, "Just do it! Bring a lot of cargo to Balmerk! If you encounter an attack by the Danes, beat them back! But..." Otto calmed down a bit again, "Liurik, after all, it is Danes. You have to choose a group of capable fighters to board the ship and bring sufficient supplies, especially weapons! A large number of torsion slingshots and crossbows are installed."Liurik let out a long sigh of relief, "I will, no enemy ship is my opponent." "Then I wish you great success, too." Arik congratulated excitedly, "There is also news that your sister-in-law Asraki's belly is finally getting bigger, and I will take her to Fort Shilla in the summer." "Yes. I'm going to Novgorod, too." Otto said, but his expression was clear and there was something to be said. "Go east and ask for tribute? Dad, you are very old, maybe you don't have to be too reluctant. Arik can take the lead." "Do you think I'm old?" Otto stroked his white beard with a wry smile, and said, "Remember that Svetlana?" Rick was clever, "That girl? You mentioned it.""Remember, that's the wife I arranged for you, don't ignore it. She is very beautiful, and she is ten years old now. I will bring her back this time. Regardless of whether Rigus agrees or not, I just want to be here. Take that girl over this year. Boy, you are indeed a good child, and indeed my good son. Among a dozen wives and concubines, don't just spoil Rumia. Once the other women reach their age, you can do it! Understand? "Otto said, everyone laughed. Leurik was not at all embarrassed, he slapped his chest, "Come on then! Anyway, the children born are your grandsons, you don't have too many, and I don't feel tired at all." The room was filled with happy laughter again, and then, everyone began to discuss the private affairs of Rurik without hesitation. After all, Lumia, the first wife and concubine to be fortunate, is Rose's high priest! This meaning is extraordinary!Everyone likes to chew their tongues **** these things they love to hear. Otto was there, and they all praised Rurik for not only the wisdom bestowed by the gods, but also a part of the magical powers. An eleven-year-old boy can visit his wife and concubine up to six times in twelve days. In their traditional concept, this is stronger than many twenty-year-old boys.Of course, they didn't know that Rurik was expecting to be in a state of overnutrition. He used his excess power in combat training before, and now he has a brand new window of venting.Harrodsson suddenly realized: "Ah! What I said, the most recent temple opening day ~ www.novelhall.com ~ the high priest sitting at my door, she occasionally limped when she stood up and walked. Was this the reason? No wonder you have to sit for a long time." I heard, a group of old guys in the room started laughing presumptuously and madly... Expedition to the West and determining the route to the Balmerk tribe is another way for Rurik to vent his powerful power. Ask yourself, I'm too irritating to Lumia's behavior too often. The spring festival is coming soon, and the ice and snow will melt into the sea. Then the ritual must be presided over by her! Not only that, the two large ships have completed the installation of sails and anchors, and even the slips into the ocean are ready!Two ships of the same class as the Aphrora, the Gurdot and the Spellosville, they both nailed chalky mud-painted planks on the bows of the ship's hull numbers, ship names, and Only the strong men are left to pull into the ocean together, and this is also the most glorious project during the big sacrifice! Lu Mia should have a good training for a while.The ice layer is getting thinner and thinner, and seal catchers claim that a large number of sea ice cracks have appeared in distant seas, and the work of catching seals is becoming more and more dangerous. This is actually a good thing, which means that the voyage is about to begin. The reality was in front of him, and Rurik had no intention of continuing to toss Rumia. He made a list and began to send people to the ship to ship the goods that were waiting to be delivered to Balmerk, such as a batch of bear skins, deer skins, and mink. There is also a yellow-white soap with a sulfur smell. Otto's advice also reminded him, to make a new weapon? of course!Lurik still intends to continue to make a fuss about the torsion weapon. This time he decided to stick to the young blacksmith apprentices, and made the "wild donkey catapult" into a new type of shipborne tactical weapon. He has arranged for his subordinates to start operations!
