Chapter 335 Preparation

The hand holding the edge of the silver basin was released, and the reflection of Salin on the water suddenly disappeared. 「」

Lin An slowly squeezed again, and an invisible scorching breath appeared above the silver basin, quickly steaming the water dry. Then, just when a fiery red fireball was about to appear, Lin An let go of the control of the spell, and before the fireball could take shape, it re-transformed into a fire element and dispersed.

There is not much left for Lin An now, mainly because the rout came suddenly, and the army in the rear camp needs some to gather and distribute dry food and weapons, and the mage must set off with the army, and it is impossible to go alone.

After ending the conversation with Salin and explaining some things, it was almost noon, and if it was in the area south of Gaunt City, the sun was estimated to be in the middle of the sky now.

Lin An set up a one-way barrier for external sound insulation, so he could clearly hear the movement of the assembly outside, and the footsteps of thousands of people were like galloping horses, shaking the earth.

According to the current speed of assembly and task distribution, the first batch of mages, after about one or two more spells, will be issued specific tasks, and the slower ones will also officially set off before the end of the day - now is the time to race against time to rush to the front line, and the logistics will probably not be stingy with warm and cold supplies, so as not to limit the army by the ice field climate as before. 「」

However, no matter how abundant the supplies are, it can only extend the march of two or three magic hours at most, the climate of the ice field changes very quickly after nightfall, and the wind is raging, if you want to march quickly overnight, I am afraid that only two or three out of ten of the troops who can finally reach the destination are left, and the rest are blown away and frozen to death by the wind in the middle of the night.

What Lin An wants to pack up is mainly some precious materials collected in this section.

The entire ice field is like a virgin land with endless treasures, which are more abundant and untapped the further north you go. Just by calculating the value of these precious mineral materials, Lin An's current net worth is tens of thousands of times larger than before he came to the ice field, comparable to the family treasury of a century-old nobleman.

This is also because she and Sidney shared the caravan offerings.

Of course, there are not only the two of them who have such a situation, but the other mages who have gained no less than them in the section of the ice field stationed, especially those who have been stationed longer and have greater power, such as Laurie, etc., who are secretly looting, I am afraid that they are more than ten times more than Lin An.

This is almost impossible to hide, after all, if you measure the others by what they have gained, you can roughly come up with a similar answer - otherwise the power and high position are eye-catching, and even the most dedicated mages are not exempt, because no magical study can be separated from money and materials. 「」

There are too many materials, and Lin An usually puts the most important and precious part in the space, and also sets aside some space, so he puts a lot of materials in the igloo.

This is still after her spiritual power broke through the materialization, and the seal of the purple peony mark opened another layer and expanded to ten cubic meters.

Now that the space is being tidied up, Lin An has to pick out some unnecessary materials, leaving only the most precious part.

Because it is foreseeable that if he really receives the combat mission this time, Lin An will not have time to go to alchemy and medicine, so in addition to taking out the materials, Lin An also tried his best to put the finished scrolls, potions, props, rune stones and some semi-finished products that he had refined on hand into the Mithril space.

Then there are the spellcasting materials, which can save mental power and mana, although it will slow down the casting speed, but sometimes what is needed on the battlefield is not necessarily the quick casting, but the number and effect of the spells.

Again, it is necessary to wear clothes and disguise to be disguised, because the possibility of falling into a dense area of demons alone cannot be ruled out.

As for the water, there is no need to worry about the mage.

There are not many ice fields on the ice field, but there is the most ice and snow, so there is never a shortage of water, and the food making technique and food pills can completely meet the short-term food needs, of course, the nutritional content is not comprehensive is inevitable - many mages who like to study in retreat often appear yellow and thin because of this, leaving the world with the impression that the mages are physically weak. 「」

When Lin An cleaned up all the necessary and important things, there was still some space left, mainly because the silver coin space was too scarce and had not been cleaned up for a long time, so some of the things stored in it were no longer necessary at this time for her.

However, among the water drop silver coins where the liquid was stored, there were still some low-grade healing water left, about half a cube, which was better than nothing for Lin An, after all, she didn't have so many other potions on hand to fill the water drop silver coins.

"If only the silver drops could separate multiple liquids." Lin An thought with some pity, but it was also whimsical.

Halfway through the packing, the sapphire ring on his finger suddenly lit up, and Lin An connected it and heard Sidney's voice:

"I don't have enough space on my side."

"How much is missing?"

Lin An is Sidney has a twenty-five cubic space cufflink, but because Sidney's true identity cannot be exposed, he needs to prepare one more surface identity needed, and the necromancer's spell casting materials are extraordinarily numerous and disgusting, often some so-and-so brain tissue and bone marrow need to be preserved by the spell of "preservation organs" and some special instruments, and the lack of space is basically inevitable. 「」

Lin An thought about it and said that there is still a cubic space on my side, well, and two storage bags. ”

The storage bag is the bag that Ludwig and Sidney used to hold the precious ore before, and Lin An originally intended to use it to hold the ore, but now it can also be given to Sidney.

"I don't lack storage bags, the ore can be packed and stored in the warehouse under my teacher's name, and I need space to carry it with me."

Sidney undoubtedly intends to travel lightly, although the storage bag is not heavy, but for a mage with an average physique, it is also a burden on the battlefield.

"Then I'll give you that silver coin." Lin An said.

"Okay," Sidney seemed to be waiting for the sentence, and said quickly, "I'll let Helm take it." ”

Moments later, Helm arrived.

And not long after he took it and left, several apprentices that Lin An asked Latin to find also arrived.

At this time, it happened that the people from the logistics warehouse also came, and asked Lin An to send someone to the one assigned to her, and Lin An waved his hand to let Latin go. 「」

As a full-fledged mage, it is her responsibility to assign apprentices to her staff. Lin An inquired about the whereabouts of these seven apprentices, and the two or three senior apprentices she was more optimistic about, such as Gramm, had already been assigned tasks and were ready to set off with the army.

Lin An was not surprised that the mage group had even given the task of apprenticeship, but the one with Sidney had still not been settled—as she had thought before, the two of them were Laurie's troubles.

Lin An inquired about the whereabouts of Gram, who were stationed in a primordial demon habitat three hundred miles away.

Obviously, both the mage regiment and the army have been prepared for the possibility of being unfavorable in the war and needing to hold their positions, so even the apprentice level has been put to use - of course, they can't go directly to the line of fire like official mages, their methods and spells are not comprehensive enough, and they can't play a role on a temporary battlefield with incomplete information, but in a protected position, three or five apprentices can play a role that is not necessarily lower than that of a formal mage.

And this idea of holding the position between the rear battalion and the first line of fire is obviously also a lesson learned from the Chinese army on the Western Front.

The high-level of the army is probably worried that the demons will directly break the connection between the rear camp of the Western Front and the first line of fire with a surprise attack, and turn the front army of the Western Front that is too advanced into a lone army, and be engulfed and eaten by the demon army.

Obviously, the idea of the rear battalion of the Western Front was to first hold the positions in the hands of the Western Front, and on the premise of ensuring the safety of the positions at hand, to support the Chinese army and save the rout.

After all, the current rout of the central army at the front is too sudden, and the two fronts of the front line of fire will inevitably lose contact and will not be able to cooperate.

So if you want to recover the rout, first of all, the western front must have some contact with the eastern front, and then make a plan to encircle and attack, so as not to miscoordinate the two sides, and the encirclement will not be successful, but the demons will break through the defense line again.

And because the situation on the two fronts is different, the Western Front seems to be too deep because the previous war was too smooth, so after eating the benefits of the rout of the Chinese army, the demons may become addicted, abandon the Eastern Front to concentrate on attacking the Western Front, and then eat the Western Front army in front of the breakthrough.

In this way, if the two-front army is defeated, then the demon clan will completely open up the situation, and the remaining eastern front army, which is facing both coastal and land attacks, will not be a cause for concern.

Lin An considered the thoughts of the demon commander from his position, and also felt that the bait of the army in front of the Western Front could not be passed no matter what.

No wonder the commander of the rear battalion was so quick to think of countermeasures in the short time he learned of the rout of the Chinese army.

From Graham and the others, they generally knew the idea of the Command, and it depended on Lin An and other mages to understand the front-line war, otherwise the apprentices and middle- and low-level officers who received the task would not have guessed the Commandery's thoughts from such a point.

However, Lin An only has a general guess, and it is impossible for Lin An to arrange the specific arrangement, after all, he needs to guard against internal traitors, as well as the conspiracy of the people of the two empires, and the leakage of war secrets-

After listening to the words of Graham and the others, Lin An didn't explain, and asked them to go to the table on the side to get a piece of the scroll and potion that had been prepared a long time ago, which was not in vain that they had followed her for a while.

Gram and the others seemed very happy, although they had expected it when they came, they were still a little excited when they got the spell scrolls and potions that only formal mages could make zuò in their hands, after all, on the battlefield, these hole cards can be regarded as completely important, and one more may save a life.

Therefore, when they look back and thank them, they appear to be very sincere.

Lin An waved his hand.

These are just more things to do when practicing, spell scrolls are no more than one level, otherwise they can't be stimulated, as for the potion, she generously gave some better ones, such as high-grade healing water, sober potion and berserk potion, etc., but they are also usually done to keep their hands familiar, so there are a lot, with her current net worth, she is not stingy with that.

After getting along for half a year, those apprentices who were cheating or had problems with their identities had already been eliminated by her, leaving these to work hard under her and help her a lot, so even if Lin An didn't have deep feelings, he still had a little bit of it.

In fact, this kind of gift before parting can be regarded as a kind of convention, but Lin An is rich and wealthy, and he is good at producing, so he gives a little more.
