Chapter 420: A Lifetime Event
In the past two years, the Cadets have learned the lessons of blood and accumulated a wealth of experience in the Autumn Hunt operation against the Orcs, and there was no need for Alan to worry too much, but this year is after all the first year that the Cadets have taken over the defense of Capra Pass. After taking over, the main responsibility of the Cadet Regiment was to ensure the safety of Capra Pass, and the operation against the orcs to fight the autumn hunt became a secondary task. How to ensure that the secondary tasks are carried out smoothly without affecting the main tasks, the division of labor and the mobilization of the armed forces have become particularly important. The purpose of Allen's meeting this time was mainly to discuss this, and now he had Bernard, a veteran who had fought against orcs for many years, by his side, and asked him to give more advice and guidance to the Youth League.
The meeting was chaired by Allen, first Harvey made a defense report on behalf of the Youth League, and other officers added that although most of the generals were participating in a three-month training during this period, the defense work of the Youth League was not put down, and they established more than a dozen small strongholds near Capra Pass, although Capra Pass was stationed on the main passage to the ancient city of Aogu outside the pass, but it could not block all the passages, there were still some small mountain roads nearby that could be bypassed, and the role of these strongholds was to guard these passages and seal all the passages that orcs might go south, no matter how big or smallγ
"The northern border of Yus has always been inhabited by the inhabitants of the inhabitants to deal with the orcs' autumn hunting operations. The team of the orcs to fight the autumn hunt is mainly composed of wolf cavalry, the characteristics of the wolf cavalry are not strong, but they are flexible, especially the small group of wolf cavalry, which is simply elusive, coupled with the fierce combat effectiveness of the werewolves. It was difficult for the large teams to catch them, and the small teams were no match for the wolf cavalry. β
After Harvey finished briefing on the situation, Bernard expressed his opinion, with his more than ten years of experience in Wubian, there was no choice but to deal with the wolf cavalry who hunted in autumn, and he could only reduce the losses by relocating the residents.
"Is there no other way?"
Alan asked, frowning.
"Unless our army can compete with werewolves in individual combat effectiveness, and then form a squad similar to the wolf cavalry to achieve similar mobility to them, there is no way. β
Bernard replied without hesitation, apparently he had been thinking about this solution for a long time.
"Harvey, Stanny, the next step is to increase training and continue to improve our individual combat effectiveness. β
Hearing Bernard's answer, Alan not only did not have any worries, but was overjoyed. The Youth League may still be immature in other aspects, but it is definitely the best among all armies in terms of individual combat ability, after all, it is not a joke for Allen to make the spring of life from the Elven Forest and assist the unique Douqi cultivation cheats. Of course, this is an absolute secret, and even many people who take the Fountain of Life do not know why their strength has increased so quickly, and of course they cannot disclose it to Bernard.
At the end of the meeting, Alan proposed to go to a few strongholds, and Harvey immediately ordered to prepare horses, and a group of people went under the protection of a large group of guards to check the deployment of the strongholds, there were more than a dozen strongholds, and they could only go half of the day.
When the group returned to Capra Pass, it was already dark, and Alan took everyone to deal with some dinner in the barracks casually, and then returned to the room where he lived.
"Let Miranda come to me in a moment. β
Before leaving, Alan commanded.
"Okay. β
Stanny agreed with a wink, and ran towards Miranda's residence.
"Brother Alan asked you to meet him. β
When Stanny arrived, Miranda was sitting in front of the window, holding her cheeks and staring at the bright starry sky outside.
"What!?"
Stanny's arrival seems to interrupt Miranda's train of thought, who is stargazing at night.
"Brother Alan asked me to inform you that he is waiting to see you at the residence. β
Stanny had to repeat it.
"Really!"
Miranda barely jumped up with excitement when she heard this.
"Why did Brother Allen let himself go so late, could it be that he changed his mind. β
In an instant, Miranda's heart turned countless thoughts, from Alan's attitude towards herself this morning, the little girl faintly felt that Alan was not satisfied with her closeness, and even a little disgusted, but she was not a person who easily admits defeat, she was thinking about how to reverse this situation all day, and now she suddenly heard that Alan let herself pass, she intuitively thought that Alan must have changed her mind, otherwise there was no reason to let herself go when it was dark, she was so overjoyed when she thought of this.
"I'll go over here. β
Miranda ran out of the house, then turned around and pushed Stanny outside, locked the door, and changed into an elegant robe inside before coming back out.
"Report to the head of the delegation, Miranda asks to see you. β
"Let him in. β
When Miranda entered the room, Alan was hunched on a long desk, drawing something on the surface of a long scroll that stretched from one end of the desk to the other. She knew that Eren was making magic scrolls, but it was the first time she had seen such a long scroll, and if it had been normal, she might have rushed up to ask this and that to see what was going on, but today she didn't have any interest in the magic on the scrolls, she stood behind Eren and pinched her robe, nervously as if waiting for the condemned criminal.
"I finally understood why the teacher had no interest in alchemy back then, but alchemy materials were too scarce, which seriously limited the development and popularization of alchemy. β
In about a quarter of an hour, Eren finished a rune of the magic array, and finally raised his head, shaking his head while wiping the magic powder in his hand.
"Brother Allen came to me to talk about alchemy?"
Miranda asked tentatively.
"I have something very important to talk to you about, it is a lifelong event about you, so you sit down first. β
Alan said, pointing to a wooden chair next to the long table.
"Oh!"
Hearing that it was her life's event, Milan's heart beat violently, and she suspected that Alan could hear the loud bang. But fortunately, Allen's attention was not on her. Alan rolled up the half-finished magic scroll and set it aside, then moved a stool and sat down in front of Miranda.
"Miranda, how old are you?"
"Twenty years old!"
Alan stared at Miranda, but Miranda kept dodging Alan's gaze.
"Twenty years old, if you were in the country, you should have married a long time ago. Brother Allen, would you like to propose a kiss for you?"
"Good..."
Miranda's voice was so smuggling that she couldn't even hear herself.
"You and Stanny grew up together, so we know him all the better. He has a brave personality, integrity, and is even more talented in martial arts, and most importantly, he likes you very much, and I think you will be happy if you marry him. β
Alan didn't go around in more circles and started to get into the subject.
Stanny's name woke up Miranda in a trance like thunder, and there was a dead silence around her, and she couldn't even hear her heartbeat, and she finally realized that Eren was going to marry herself instead of marrying in.
"Brother Allen, what did you say? What Stanny? Didn't you want me to marry you?"
Miranda no longer dodged Alan's gaze, but looked at him.
"Of course not. How can I marry you if I have a wife?"
Miranda's question stunned Alan.
"But Sister Bai Lanxue has left us forever. β
"Didn't leave, she's always been with me. β
Alan said, pointing to his chest.
"Brother Allen, I know the place of Sister Bai Lanxue in your heart. But I'll love you as much as she does, no, no... I will love you more than she does. β
"Miranda, that's different. β
For Miranda's confession, Alan could only shake his head and smile bitterly.
"It's the same. In terms of appearance and ability, I am no worse than Sister Bai Lanxue, she is willing to die for you, I can too, as long as you say a word, the sword mountain will be in the sea of fire and turned into ashes, I will not blink an eye. β
Miranda stood up and walked up to Allen, her big blue eyes staring at Allen with a determined light shining inside.
"Miranda, love is not what you think. β
This time it was Alan's turn to dodge Milan's gaze.
"What do you say? I promise you can do it. β
As she spoke, Miranda suddenly untied the belt of her robe, and the robe slipped off, revealing her flawless jade body.
"What is this for, are you crazy?"
Alan was taken aback by Miranda's astonishing behavior and quickly picked up her robe and put it back on for her.
"I'm not crazy! I just want to tell you that I love you more than Bai Lanxue, and I am willing to give everything for you, right now. β
Miranda hugged Alan all of a sudden, and said pitifully with her face against his chest.
"Miranda, wake up. Smack!"
Alan shoved Miranda away and raised his hand to slap her, although Alan didn't use force, but Miranda's fair face still had five fingerprints.
Miranda covered her face, tears rolling in her eyes, this was the first time Alan had hit her, and she hadn't even scolded before.
"Brother Allen, do you really not like me at all?"
Tears flowed down her white jade cheeks, and Miranda felt her heart break into countless pieces.
"I'm sorry!"
Alan's voice was full of apologies, and she didn't even know how to explain it.
"I don't believe it. β
"Miranda, trust me. Stanny is the best guy for you, I'm not. β
"I don't want Stanny, I just want you, I won't give up. β
Miranda said as she stepped back to the door, then turned and opened the door and ran out. Alan followed to the door and sighed as Miranda disappeared into the night. Originally, I wanted to achieve a beautiful marriage, but I didn't expect it to backfire, and now it has become a big trouble. It's just that emotional matters need to be gradual and impatient, and I can only watch while walking and slowly enlightening.
"Miranda..."
Miranda ran towards her quarters, secretly determined not to give up, and when she reached the outside of her quarters, a figure suddenly flashed in the darkness and blocked her way.
"Stanny!"
Miranda stopped and asked with a cold expression:
"Did you hear all the conversations I had with Brother Allen?"
Stanny's appearance at this time made Miranda quickly figure out the cause and effect.
Stanny was silent.
"That's fine, so that I don't have to explain to you: it is impossible for us to give up unrealistic illusions. β
Miranda's words were a hundred times colder than her expression.
"Miranda, give up unrealistic fantasies, and neither you nor Brother Allen will be. β
Stanny was silent for a moment before meeting Miranda's gaze.
"We can't be our business, it's none of your business, you don't have to worry about it. β
"Miranda, your attitude towards me now is no different from Brother Allen's attitude towards you, think about your own feelings, you will understand me. You won't give up on Brother Allen, and I won't give up on you, and I'm sure one day you'll change your mind. β
After Stanny finished what he wanted to say, he turned and disappeared into the night, leaving Miranda standing there for a long time before he finally stamped his foot back to the room and cried.
The next morning, Alan continued to patrol the stronghold with others, and it took another whole day, Stanny followed him, looking sluggish, Alan understood the reason, but he didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only sigh secretly.
In the evening, Alan returned to Capra Pass, and before he could have dinner, Steven suddenly came to the door.
"Brother-in-law, Reinhardt has come from the ancient city of Ogu and said that he has something very important to see you. β
Alan originally thought that Steven was going to talk about Stanny and Miranda, but he didn't expect him to bring a surprising news, Reinhardt actually ran from the ancient city of Aogu to Capra Pass to find him, obviously something big happened.
"Did he say anything?"
"He's going to tell you to your face. β
"Okay, I'll go see him. β
Alan met Reinhardt, who had been waiting for a long time, at the official office at Capra Pass. As soon as they met, Reinhardt handed Alan an an envelope, and Alan opened the envelope and read the contents of the letter, and his face changed greatly.
"Steven, tell the others that I have an urgent need to go to Nice City. β
Alan threw down a sentence, walked out of the official office, and the whole person flew up and disappeared directly into the night sky.
"Your Excellency, what the hell is going on?"
Seeing that Eren directly used the flying technique to leave, Stie Wenbai must be in a hurry.
"Just look at the letter for yourself. β
Reinhardt handed the letter to Steven.
"Go and get Master Elvis, and I'll say I have something important to discuss. β
After reading the letter, Steven's face changed, and he hurriedly ordered his entourage to call Elvis.
