Chapter 187 Preparation (1)
Chapter 187 Preparation (Part 1)
In the small mine village, soldiers lined up to advance.
Romon stood and watched.
This is Captain Shabid, of Sir Demerka's family, who specializes in training the army. Now, it has been almost twenty days since the army's model has come out.
But it was not enough, Romon wondered if he would say something to Sir Demerka for another month.
"It seems that the training is pretty good. Lord Lord, you are really planning ahead!" Old Man Lulun looked and nodded. Although he was far from the Knights of Lord of Glory, he was almost the same as the Baron's guard in the countryside.
"I didn't know there was a demon before, do you believe it? This is just a kind of luck, including training the guards and the city walls!" Romon said with a wry smile: "It's not that I have much ability to prepare for the future and have a long-term vision."
Out of Romon's expectations, Old Man Lulun laughed loudly after hearing this, which confused Romon.
"Lord, in our current situation and position, no strategy or insight is effective. Only strength and luck are the most important. If you have such luck, it is really the happiest thing if you have such luck." Old man Lulun was puzzled when Romon was confused, so he said, obviously, he had his own opinion on the situation.
Hearing this, Romon felt that yes, yes, the situation is very clear now, and the outbreak of the magic disaster is right in front of him. I don’t know how many months later, Romon’s only hope is to delay it until June next year and then explode after harvesting the winter wheat.
I once thought about filling out the gap, but after real research, I found that this was useless.
The devil disaster broke out, from the dark area to the ground. The explosion site was where the gap was weak. Without a large amount of steel and cement, covering it with stones would only be a warning to the snake, and it had no effect - some demons were digging through magic.
After all, it is also a weak place to fill it here, and the demons cannot dig thick layers of stones, but give up on it for a little bit of stone - if this is the site of the attack.
However, necessary precautions must be taken. For example, building cross-arrow towers at the exit of the mining area can at least serve as early warning. The reason is to prevent black spider monsters from appearing underground. This will not cause panic among villagers, nor will it leak the news of the magic disaster.
"Fafell!" At this time, the horse rode by and Romon greeted the people above: "Come, go to the government of the government."
Fafell did feel something. He has been training hard these days, but level 4 to level 5, although such training is not useless, it is impossible to break through in a short period of time.
Hearing the call, Fafeer responded, turned over and dismounted, and advanced with his horse.
The internal government is actually the village hall, and two adventurers who changed their positions were majestic and stood at the door.
Romon directly ordered the three carriages inside, and ordered the soldiers to close the door and not allow anyone to come in.
After he returned, Nick rushed back to the Forest House, moved the village hall there and was dealing with documents and affairs.
As soon as I entered Nick's office, I saw a table of documents and Nick who was rustling in the pile of documents.
"Nick!" Romon walked over and sat down on a chair opposite. Seeing that the other party still did not raise his head, he couldn't help but knock on the table with his fingers.
"Romon?" Nick, who found someone in, immediately raised his head and saw that it was Romon: "Why, I'm not staying at home, and finally came out?"
Romon knew that Fafel and Nick were both dissatisfied with their return this time and did not mention the situation at all. This was also a manifestation of their friendship, but this matter could not be mentioned.
"Okay, Nick, don't be busy with this. I'm here this time, I have something to tell you." Romon said seriously, and ordered Fafer and Old Man Lulun to come over.
Seeing that Romon was not a joke, Nick had to stop the movements in his hand, look at the other person's eyes seriously, and ask, "Tell me, Romon, what's going on?"
"Bang!" A heavy box was carried by Romon in both hands and brought to the table, and suddenly, it made a heavy sound.
"Is this?" As an intern official, he deals with money all day long, and there is no more sensitive to money than him. Nick just listens to the sound and can already hear what is in his pocket.
When I opened it, sure enough, a large piece of shining gold coins, a thousand gold coins, also weighed five kilograms.
Nick's eyes stayed for a moment on the gold coins, and soon turned to Romon's face: "What are these gold coins?"
Romon smiled and said, "This is when I got a batch of cave pearls from the cracks underground. I changed some goods. All that is left is this, one thousand gold coins. You don't have to worry about the specific situation. I hope you can understand. If you don't want me to be invited to the city again and will never be able to come out again."
Nothing can be said, of course it cannot be done, but it cannot be done after all. After all, it cannot solve the problem of the source of goods, so I can only say vaguely now.
It was originally one thousand two hundred gold coins, but Luo Meng left two hundred gold coins in the Shennongjiao space just in case.
"A thousand gold coins, and goods?" Nick immediately realized that something was wrong. He was finally no longer a country boy. He had been studying for three years and had been in charge of internal affairs for more than a year. He was also a little enlightened. After listening to Romon's words, he put his hands on the table and stared at Romon's eyes.
After a moment, he nodded and said, "I understand. I will accept the money immediately. I can repay the loan in the future. Where is the goods?"
"This is what I want to say. I have paid off the loan and the goods are outside." Romon said.
Although he was a little prepared, Nick still took a breath. The loan was 10,000 gold coins, but he even said he would pay it back. What did Romon find out and what happened?
When he got outside, he first opened the first carriage. Romon said, "Fafell, these are eighty sets of leather armor, and probably the armed forces are enough."
After eighty sets, Fafell and Nick were shocked.
Fafell went up to check, gasped, and said, "Isn't this a standard leather armor for the noble guard?"
In addition to the Holy Sword Knights, they are rich and powerful, and even the servants have chain mail to wear. Generally, the standard equipment of the city's army is only this kind of leather armor.
Eighty sets are worth a lot!
Twenty sets have been received in the space, and Romon didn't explain, saying, "Wait next month, let the guards wear this training and get familiar with it as soon as possible. Also, Captain Shabid will adjust, as for the spear, it is not worth the money, so let them train."
As he said that, he went to the second carriage.
"This guy!" Nick and Fafel looked at each other, stood up, and quickly followed.
"This is a standard long sword, one hundred and thirty! You can also count it. If you should put it, put it down. If there is any excess, store it and arrange it." Romon said as he ordered.
Fafeer stepped forward and checked it, and it was indeed a high-quality long sword.
"Finally, let's take a look. This is a military crossbow. It took a lot of effort to complete it. Ten pairs of weapons. You must strictly control them. Don't be careless." Romon said with a serious expression.
"Hiss!" This time, Nick and Fafel's faces changed drastically. Even if they had no knowledge, they understood the price of such controlled weapons and the difficulty of getting them.
"Also, Fafell, come up. This pair of knight armor, spear, sword, and shield are all yours. Take it back first and get it familiar with it. I have sent someone to buy it and I will send it back soon."
The Earth Dragon Horse is said to have a trace of bloodline of the Dragon Clan, so it is strong and powerful, and it is a must for the higher knights. If not, they cannot bear such a fierce battle.
Seeing this, Fafeer was shocked. Of course he understood that this was the armor of the advanced knight, which was not only valuable, but also difficult to obtain, let alone the Dragon Horse.
To be honest, the last time Romon came back, Fafei Er felt very uncomfortable. Originally, Romon didn't hide anything, but now, he didn't tell him anything. The first time he was treated like this made him very worried and angry, eroding his heart and causing him to suffer.
There is also the scholar Lu Lun, who seemed to be closer than himself and Romon, and discussed many things with him.
However, even Fafell now understands that the matter is extremely serious. If something big had happened, how could Romon not say it? If it weren't for the strong brotherhood, how could he have done these things specifically for him?
I don’t know how much money it cost or how many relationships it has left, and the fierce Paladin who came that day... Fafell thought of this, his original grievance turned into guilt, and his eyes suddenly became hot.
"It's okay, one day, I will tell you, and the difficulties will be overcome." Romon patted Fafell on the shoulder and said, "You only need to train. I have something to do. I have to go to the mining area once."
Soon, Romon had already taken up a horse and turned over the horse under his gaze. The scholar Lu Lun followed, as if he felt his gaze. Romon waved his hand at him, and then urged the horse to leave.
"Nick, how much does this batch of goods cost?" Standing at the door and looking at the black dots in the distance, Fafer suddenly came back and asked Nick.
"Including your armor and the loan you paid, you will have at least 30,000 gold coins!" Nick said with a heavy face: "This time, things are going on, don't get angry."
"Thirty thousand gold coins!" Fafell was shocked. After hearing this, he nodded: "I know, I believe that Romon will not add any more trouble to him."
When passing the training ground, Romon saw Hevavi, who was studying seriously with Captain Shabid.
Recalling his past battle example, Romon's eyes suddenly narrowed, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. He said to himself: "Haivavi had a Level 4 warrior. Will there be a chance to break through?"
"Haiwawei? Is it him?" Old man Lulun looked at the man on the playground and said, "Level 4 warrior? He is still young. Maybe he has a chance to be promoted? The magic disaster is a great rehabilitation."
"But..." Romon said, and stopped talking.
"You are worried about your territory and can't afford to support two knights, right?" Old Man Lulun said.
"...Indeed, he is new. Although he has some friendship, after being promoted to level 5, my territory may not be able to leave him behind." Romon said with a wry smile.
"It was indeed a problem before. Now there is no more. Do you think he can leave in the current situation? The Church of the Lord of Glory and the Church of Order will not give him a way out. Now it is time for war." Old man Lulun shrugged his shoulders and said, "The escapees will be killed in the face of battle, so he has no other way to go. As for the post-war period, he cannot survive, and there is no need to say anything. Don't worry, those who survive, according to habits, after the demon disaster, there is more territory without a master. You can always get a viscount in terms of merit and rewards. Maybe even an earl is possible, why can't you afford a few knights?"
After a pause, the old man Lulun smiled and said, "If you can be promoted to level 15 or above in the magic disaster and make great achievements, you may be able to build a country. The founder of our Esk Kingdom, the famous hero Mekta, is also the survivor and hero of the last magic disaster."
After all, it was a scholar who could see clearly, and Romon nodded repeatedly.
In fact, Fafell already has a set of knight armor. Of course, it is ordinary knight armor and war horses. Since Haivavi has this potential and cannot leave, it is better to give it to him simply.
Thinking of this, Romon was a little moved, so he shouted: "Haivavi, come here!"
"Yes, Lord Lord!" Hevavi, who was studying with Captain Shabid, was stunned for a moment. Seeing that it was Romon, he quickly responded, wiped his sweat, and came over.
"Let's go, get on the horse and follow me to the mining area." Romon signaled.
Haiwawei responded: "Yes!"
After a moment, he also rode a horse and followed.
Three riders boarded the hills. In the blue sky, a mountain eagle was spreading its wings and soaring, sometimes rushing downwards and sometimes patrolling back and forth, looking unusually handsome and majestic.
"Lightning!" Romon arrived at the entrance of the mining area, grabbed the horse, looked at it, and shouted.
The mountain eagle obviously heard his screams, and with the sound of the wind, it fell straight down, landing in front of Romon's horse. The majestic appearance of a king in the air shocked the horse under Romon's seat to retreat several steps.
Romon asked, "Lightning, have you noticed any abnormality?"
He looked at the eagle that was almost at the same height as him and asked in a low voice. It turned out that since he returned to the territory, he could not leave the territory too far and could not reveal anything to others. So Romon let lightning fly in the air to observe the situation around the territory.
"Guru, Guru." Lightning stood there majestic, gurgling in his neck. Through spiritual communication, Romon learned some of the situations it had discovered and his face became heavy.
