Chapter 626 Brand didn’t lie!
While chatting with Mr. Romien, Mr. Robert, who was also in the baggage team, also came over.
After glancing at the exquisite white outfits of everyone in the library.
He couldn't help but asked curiously:
"Do you look a little conspicuous in your white clothes?
Like your father's side, although they are a knight, they only have one more big cloak than the soldiers of the Mesa family!
At first glance, it looks like this , like an elite cavalry.
Look at the mage corps of Claude and the Cecil family. Although they also wear uniform mage robes, they are not as conspicuous and exquisite as you, and they look like important figures at first glance!
If we encounter an enemy, they will regard you as the primary target!"
Hearing this, Brand responded with a smile:
"I just need a lot of war contributions to exchange for territory!
If the orcs can come to the door themselves, then But it couldn't be better!"
Hearing this, Mr. Romien shook his head and said:
"Your idea is a little premature. There is still at least half a month before the empire officially announces the Northern Expedition!
Now ! Encountering orcs in the wild can only result in a little merit at most!
In addition, because the empire has increased the defense of the border area, we probably won’t encounter many orcs on this trip."
Hearing Mr. Romien’s final analysis , Brand waved his hand to summon the light screen of the empty screen.
Then he quickly connected to the intelligence map of the "War Information Room" of the Military Affairs Department, which he had not connected to for a long time.
Immediately afterwards, I saw the intelligence map at this time.
The blue stars representing the Imperial Legion are arranged in an orderly manner in the border area, and many red stars are right next to them.
——Many legions are in battle!
In addition, there are even as many as 17 "big red stars" representing big orcs on the map!
——These big orcs are cooperating with the orc army to cross the border and invade south!
This is a scene that is rarely seen!
Seeing such a scene, Brand frowned and said:
"It seems that the orcs really want to start a war with us in advance and weaken our strength.
Because of the expansion of the gray curtain of war, we have to give up the advantage of fortress defense.
When we go out , The border area is arranged to hinder the southward expansion of the war gray curtain.
And also because of the war gray curtain, the perception is limited.
We don’t know the orcs’ layout, and it is difficult to make targeted defense and interception!”
Hearing Brand With these words, he looked at the intelligence map in the light curtain.
Mr. Romien smiled and said:
"Don't worry too much. Others can think of these things you can think of.
His Majesty the Emperor even convened a meeting of nobles for this, didn't he?
What's more, we have already arranged it in the north. A lot of troops.
So we are not afraid of the orc attack.
In addition, since the previous noble meeting,
many nobles in the empire have speeded up their journey northward in a tacit understanding.
If we wait here for a few days, maybe there will be a steady stream of The team heading north will follow to further strengthen the border defense!"
After Mr. Romien finished speaking.
Mr. Robert on the side suddenly pointed to the light curtain next to Brand, and then frowned and said:
"Brand, why didn't I see the crystal ball that created this light curtain?
You are using the empty shadow again. Has the external screen been upgraded?"
After hearing this, he observed it carefully.
Mr. Romien couldn't help but frown tightly!
——They just bought the empty screen external screen not long ago, but it has already been eliminated by Brand because of falling behind? ——Brand showed the updated version of the external screen in front of them intentionally or unintentionally. Is the next step to promote it to them?
He saw the two elders looking at him solemnly.
Brand showed a purple gem on the bracelet on his right hand, and then introduced:
"This is a highly miniature version of the rune array. The
original crystal ball has been reduced to the size of such a gem. You can find any jewelry It can be inlaid and carried on the body for use at any time.
Compared with all previous versions, I don't need to say more about its advantages!"
Hearing this, the two elders couldn't help but raise their eyebrows!
Although the external screen for the empty screen is updated so quickly.
They all really wanted to say something out loud!
But now!
What they have to admit is:
compared to the crystal ball, this thing is indeed more useful!
At the same time, their reason is constantly telling them:
Such an easy-to-carry external screen for the empty screen may be called the "final version"!
——No matter how much you upgrade, it probably won’t go anywhere!
After a period of fighting between heaven and man, the two masters still felt that
if the price of upgrading the external screen was low enough.
Then it’s not like they can’t think about it!
However, Brand suddenly spread his hands and said,
"It's a pity that I don't have the ability to make this thing yet.
My dear teacher took the time to make this thing for me!
Even if the two masters I want it, but I have no choice now!"
Hearing Brand's words, the two elders couldn't help but frown even deeper!
——If this is a clever way to raise prices, they must admit: Brand succeeded!
Immediately afterwards, Brand let the light curtain dissipate calmly and focused on continuing on his way.
The psychological values of the two great masters have been rising all the way unconsciously!
But in the end, they discovered a fact to their great disappointment:
Brand did not lie!
...
after about two days of traveling.
That evening, they came to one of the large material warehouses set up by the empire in the north.
——Cedar Castle.
It’s different from the last time I came here to unload the baggage.
This time they were just passing through.
After resting here for a night, the baggage they carried will continue to be transported to the front line as military supplies for their pioneering army in the next period of time.
After review, enter Cedar Castle.
Compared to the last time he arrived, Brand found that the various buildings here were more crowded.
——More buildings should also mean more supplies!
In addition, Brand also saw many mages and knights patrolling in an orderly manner.
——The guards here are much tighter than last time!
The night after dinner, Brand discussed their next research direction with several senior students in the camp.
In the middle of the discussion, Catherine walked in and said:
"Master, the elders have learned a piece of news. Now please go over and discuss with them."
After hearing this, Brand said goodbye to several senior sisters. He got up and walked towards the camp where some elders were.
After arriving at the camp where several elders were staying.
Mr. Mesa told a piece of news:
"His Majesty the Emperor has entrusted all internal affairs to the task and will leave for the north tomorrow!
After arriving in the North, His Majesty the Emperor will immediately conduct a military parade in the North and confirm the status of each noble family for the last time. The specific number of troops participating in the war!
After this military parade is over, it will be the time when we officially declare war on the orcs in the north!"
