After the war situation in the central part of the empire was reported, the southern border also officially took action.
Although they had already transported a lot of military supplies and food to the central part of the country before, this time they began to gather troops.
Even though Charanlot himself voluntarily gave up the title and privileges of the Red Dragon Duke, it had only been a few years since the collapse of the Baskar family, and his name was far from being forgotten.
After she voluntarily resigned from her position within the organization, she began to gather the descendants of the former Paskar family in her personal capacity to repay the kindness of being secretly supported by the current emperor during the disaster.
This matter has been spread out, and even without the deliberate publicity of the 'Fairy Wood' organization, it was quickly known to many people in the southern region.
Under his call, some former allies and vassal descendants of the Baskar family began to respond.
Perhaps in the eyes of uninformed people, this is a very stupid behavior. Now that there are no nobles in the south, even if you help Charanlot win the battle, there will be no obvious benefits and you will still have to risk your life.
However, the glorious tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years in the empire is not just slogans, loyalty, commitment, repayment, and other behaviors that will still be respected and valued by people.
Most of the nobles in the past had a stable status, and their blood would be passed down in fiefdoms and noble circles for hundreds of years. They still valued reputation and credibility. Good face certainly brings arrogance and luxury, but sometimes it is also a good phenomenon, because This prevents them from completely degenerating into dishonest words and cheating to make a living.
But this does not mean that nobles are all good people, it is just that they occasionally do bad things and have more covert and convenient methods.
Nowadays, the Southern Territory has only experienced changes for a few years. Although these former nobles have to accept the current situation, they still miss the respected scene in the past. The few remaining glimmers of the noble glory have not completely dissipated.
Therefore, after Charan Lott issued the summoning order, some people still responded. Some of them were descendants of the nobles of the former southern border, and some were people who had received favors from the Paskar family.
After waiting for several weeks, a force of more than 6,000 people was finally assembled.
Such a number of people is naturally a drop in the bucket compared to the fierce battlefield in the central part, but the 'Drywood' organization secretly prepared the latest weapons and equipment for them, and many mages from the organization participated. They will be responsible for the operation of these war machines. Maintenance and repair.
Most of these mages belong to the "Transparent Stone", the former underground organization in the South, which are the remaining descendants of the former Kingdom of Oz.
At that time, not all mages left this land, there were also a small number who became anonymous and turned to live in darkness. These mages were the predecessors of the 'Transparent Stone'.
It's just that compared to Lurna and the Young Berry Kingdom, their number is too small. When Lorran Hill sent people to contact them three years ago, the total number of people totaled only a few thousand, and this still includes those sequences. 1-2 results for low-level apprentices and peripheral members.
Now that the 'Fairy Wood' organization has unified the southern territory, these mages have finally shown their prominence. Their rich knowledge and education have made these people quickly become the backbone of the organization, filling the talent gap in the early days of the organization.
After seeing such a scene, several other organizations in the southern territory regretted it, and belatedly contacted the 'Drywood' organization. Later, they either switched to the bright side, joined the 'Drywood', or were suppressed. Then gradually disappeared.
Different from the crude ruling methods of the past nobles, the 'Drywood' organization has an organizational structure that goes deep into the village level. It has spent several years rectifying and counting household registration, land, population, and improving various systems. This has made these underground organizations in the past
The organization must either disband or open up and accept the supervision of the 'Drywood' organization.
As a result, the security environment in the southern border has been greatly improved, and business has flourished. There is no need to worry about robberies by bandits, and the cost of guarding has been reduced a lot, allowing the people to buy more affordable goods.

"After being disassembled, these war machines will be transported to the central part of the country with the team, and then assembled. This time, 17 types of war machines under development will be tested. We will improve their subsequent research and development based on the actual combat results, and determine the future
How should we equip our army?"
On the cliff beside the canyon, a mage in robes was holding a report and reporting to the green-haired girl in front of him.
He looks to be about 30-40 years old, wearing round glasses, and his robe is mainly white, with green lace and vine decorations, which is also the consistent style of the "Drywood" organization.
"What is its performance approximately? Can it keep up with the former Frost Alliance's most advanced golems?"
"Uh, I'm sorry, Lord Jialan, because we wasted too much time in the past, and now it will take some time to catch up to the level of the Frost Alliance in the past."
"We have also studied the materials left behind by the Frost Alliance. Among them, the 'Titan' class divine golem is still difficult to copy and reproduce with our technology even today."
"However, we also summarized the shortcomings of the past Frost Alliance and took a different path." The mage consultant of the 'Fairy Wood' organization continued to explain to the girl.
"Although the 'Titan' golem is powerful, it is too bulky, easy to be targeted, and difficult to use in attacks because it is too heavy, requires high terrain, and is difficult to move over long distances."
Gu Hao
"So, we adopted a more flexible and smaller war machine." He pushed up his glasses as he spoke, seeming to feel an inexplicable sense of pride and pride.
"We Transparent Stone, ahem, our Drywood organization's concept will be more advanced, popularizing war machinery to every soldier on the battlefield, and will equip high-level extraordinary beings with more suitable magic armor to enable them to play a greater role.
value and more flexibility.”
"For example, the 'Green Hornet'-class hive launcher is equipped with six enchanted penetrating fire arrows that can use its own fuel to accelerate flight. The recoil is small. If used by ordinary soldiers, it will also cause objective damage to extraordinary people, and it will be used up when used.
Throw it, which greatly saves the cost of using an enchanted crossbow of the same level."
"In addition, in terms of protection, when forming a shield wall, the 'Leap Fish' level Gayap formula protective shield will be connected to adjacent shields through the interface on the edge of the shield, and make it a whole that circulates magic power, so that it will not be able to deal with that kind of power.
It’s relatively large, but a single-point attack is particularly effective.”
"In terms of high-level magic armor, there is the 'Butterfly Tail' class trial flying armor, which allows extraordinary beings above sequence 4 to fly and gain certain protection and air combat capabilities. You must know that in the past, only some extraordinary beings above sequence 5
People can fly, and now it can be said to be a huge change."
After that, the mage introduced a series of new machines and equipment, some of which were regarded as useless by Lorraine Hill, and some of which he thought were very interesting and might have a lot of room for development.
Even though the girl does not have the specific data on the creations of the Mechanical Council in the Twilight Era in the past, she can still see a lot of shadows of the past in the development of these crafts today.
Excellent designs are always similar because they conform to the laws and theorems of the world.
"Keep working hard. It probably won't take a few years to catch up with the level of the Frost Alliance. If you can't even occupy the forefront of the mage circle, then the reconstruction of the Star Gazing Mystery Academy will only make the other two groups of mages
They saw the joke."
"Yes, Master Jialan."
Seeing that the green-haired lady finally nodded in approval, the mage representative finally breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The tasks assigned by the instructor are really difficult to complete. This gentleman is not like the laymen in the organization who can be fooled by simply giving a few names.
But they had to explain and demonstrate their abilities to this girl, otherwise this year's R&D budget would be cut. Since the establishment of the organization, many committee members have responded that the expenses of their technical groups are too high and they have requested cuts.
The mages were once uneasy, as their burning inspiration was about to be forcibly extinguished.
"Did you move the 'Eron' into the car this time?" Lorraine Hill suddenly asked about another thing.
"Yes, the 'Eron' is our only semi-finished product that is close to success in imitating the 'Titan' class golem. Although there are still some shortcomings, it does not detract from its power. Moreover, this war colossus is very suitable for Lord Charanlot...
"
"I know it is very powerful, and you have invested a lot of hope in it, but there are more than just those on the battlefield..." Lorraine Hill stopped mid-sentence.
Forget it, telling the news about the witch at this time will probably cause a wave of uneasiness and anxiety.
Seeing Lorraine Hill pause, the mage representative thought that the girl was referring to the secret assassination methods. After all, the emperor of the empire died due to these secret methods.
"Lord Jialan, please rest assured. We will set up an isolation barrier near Sir Xia Lanluote to guard and block the approach of assassins. Moreover, we also have elite magic swordsmen who specifically target assassins. This is why we can secretly fight against assassins in the empire."
The reason for survival under Yue’s pursuit.”
Since the destruction of the Kingdom of Oz, the Empire has carried out multiple raids and exterminations on the remnants and remnants of the Southern Wizards. Although their numbers have been greatly reduced, the few who survived have gradually developed various means specifically for hunting down and assassinating them.
.
Among them, the magic swordsman equipped with enchanted armor can use various magic means to quickly react and target those assassins.
"Well, it seems you have put a lot of thought into this time."
"Then, I'll look forward to your performance. I hope you can bring Charlanlot back alive."
"Yes, Master Jia Lan." The mage pressed his hand on his chest, bent down to salute, and then left slowly.
Below the canyon, the roaring sound of wheels never stops, and huge steel chariots are slowly advancing. Heavy war machines are fixed on their thick black steel frames, and they are covered and bundled with water-proof rain-proof curtains.
.
Dragged by each Sequence 5 gray-armored rhinoceros, these heavy steel chariots gradually drove through the rocky canyon like next door, leaving long and broken ruts.
At the front of the team, a bright red dragon-headed flag fluttered in the wind.
The red dragon knights wearing dark gold armor, holding huge shields and wearing flaming red cloaks, rode on war horses, advancing step by step on the road, following the only and small figure at the front.
She was holding a long dragon spear and riding on a white war horse. Her hair spilled out from under her helmet and draped behind her, dancing slowly with the flaming dragon flag.
