Chapter 84

Until he left Ivy's medical barracks, Roy had not been able to recover from the ecstasy.

At the age of seventeen or eighteen, it is the time when I am full of fantasies about the opposite sex.

A hairy boy, being held in his arms by a beautiful woman who is the most mature and charming, intimate contact, not to mention a wild boy who has not received any traditional gender education since he was a child, even if he is a religious believer in a seminary who follows the rules, I am afraid that he will betray the Holy Emperor and throw himself into the arms of the devil.

Roy walked all the way, savoring the soft touch all the way. It wasn't until he was surrounded by a group of people that he came to his senses.

"Roy!" Tang Xiaoben, led by him, punched Roy in the chest, "Good guy, you are out of the limelight this time." It completely covered the light of me, a young hero in Medin City. ā€

All around, Eva, Nicole, Julie, Meng Meng, Eric, Giles, Luke, Griffin and others all surrounded them, and behind them, there were many students that Roy knew and didn't know.

Anne stood in the crowd with a calm expression. Ling Shuang and Ling Xue, a pair of sisters who had fought side by side when the caravan was attacked, stood side by side.

There is also his old opponent Xia Li, and the two young people next to him who seem to be a few years older.

There are also star students such as Pierre, Ranch and Wormsley, who are regarded as idols by the students of the three major training camps, standing in the crowd and looking at him with complicated eyes.

They and he originally belonged to two completely different worlds. But now, in their eyes, there is no longer the kind of rejection and arrogance that they had when they were in the Grand Duke's Mansion, although not obvious, but they can be felt. Yes, they are just unconvinced, but they contain a trace of equality of recognition and admiration.

Roy was a little weird.

Judging from the movements of the crowd around them, it is obvious that they are waiting for themselves here.

"What's wrong?" Roy asked.

"What's the matter?" Tang Xiaoben followed Roy's gaze. Turning his head to look at the students, he suddenly realized, "What else can there be, let's come and see you, a Lulian hero! Not to mention, you punched Kevin, it's really handsome! He let out a vicious breath. ā€

"yes," said the excited little man Eric, waving his fist and mimicking Roy's punching Kevin, "it's beautiful." ā€

The experience of trying out with Roy and killing Fujiki Ape has become the proudest thing for this little man who is lively by nature and even seems a little silly to others.

This time, Roy single-handedly fights out of the barracks and fights Kevin. I don't know how many students are agitated and can't help themselves.

As Roy's friend, Eric is naturally honored.

Especially in front of so many people, talking to Roy, Eric looked forward to it, and he was quite proud. Especially when I see the girls I secretly like on weekdays, they all set their eyes on themselves, and they used to be for Roy. and was suppressed by the group of noble children, and was excluded and neglected by the organization. By now, it's all worth it!

Roy laughed.

He didn't believe that they were waiting for him, just to tell him this. Tang Xiaoben and Eric and others, perhaps their friends, are happy that they won Kevin, but Pierre. Rankie and Waomsley, the arrogant guys, would never have been able to join in the fun here without a reason.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on. Don't say I'm leaving!"

Seeing Tang Xiaoben and Eric boasting about themselves, Roy bluffed.

Hear Roy's question. Tang Xiaoben scratched his head a little embarrassed, and turned his head to look at the people next to him. However, Julie was generous, and said to Roy with a smile: "It's because of the selection of the Guards." ā€

As soon as Julie mentioned it, Roy immediately understood.

Only he knows what the so-called Guards are all about. That's not like the set of gold and silver star students that the coalition forces did among the cadets before, star cadets with high talent and noble status enjoy better treatment. That's a force that has to go through a life-and-death battle, go to the rear, fight in danger, and occupy a castle!

As the coach of this team, Percy made no mistake in his choice.

No matter how strong these students are, they have never experienced the baptism of blood and fire after all. When they really go to the battlefield, their role may not be as good as that of an experienced cavalryman!

Moreover, this is also Percy's love for the trainees of the training camp.

As a knight of the empire, he is a famous general of the army. Percy the Blood Fox understood the importance of these cadets to the Empire.

The two countries are at war, and the strength of the troops is only part of it. Saint-Soran has been able to stand tall for a hundred years under the watchful eye of the other two great powers, thanks to those who stand at the top of the pyramid. Whether it's a paladin or a god of law, once you intervene in the war, the consequences will be ruined.

Now, the war between Philip and Solan is still limited to a low level. Both sides have not yet used their strongest forces. But this is just a kind of coincidental preservation of strength. When it comes to the moment of life and death, the intensity of the war will rise by countless levels in an instant. The millions of corpses are bleeding and drifting, and it is not just a description.

And each of these trainees is the foundation of the future force of the empire. As long as they are given time to grow up, there may be a generation of famous players among them. Maybe you will break through the Holy Rank and stand at the top of the knight or magician. If they die early in such a battle, it will definitely be a huge loss for the Empire.

It wasn't just Percy who thought this way, but Eugene, Avery and all the generals in the army. No one is willing to bury these precious seeds in such an action.

Although Roy felt that Percy was a little underestimating his friends, he also knew that it was a rational choice.

However, he didn't expect that because of this incident, these guys would actually find him.

You know, in this barracks, few people know Percy's true identity. Percy became famous two decades ago. At that time, I didn't have my peers. And since he lost his fighting spirit, Percy has disappeared from people's sight, even if he is a knight in the army, few people know who this thin old man is.

And Percy's relationship with himself is even more unknown. Moreover. Although the list of the Guards was drawn up by Percy, the nominal leader was Eugene.

"You're the only cadet from the three camps to be selected for the Guard," seemed to see Roy's confusion, Julie explained. "Moreover, everyone heard that the main members of the Guards this time are the people in the rabble. You can speak well in the rabble, so ......"

Roy understood. I had a headache for a while.

The others were just fine, but Tang Xiaoben, who was looking at him beside him, was Mengmeng. These people are Giles, but they are his friends. He didn't want to lie and deceive them, but in this matter, even he had no room for manoeuvre.

"It's a long story......," Roy scratched his hair, not knowing how to explain it.

At this time, a voice sounded next to it.

"Roy. ā€

Roy turned his head to look. I saw that it was Xia Li who called himself. He was in the company of those two young men. Walked over.

At a distance of three meters from Roy, Xia Qing and Anse El stood still, and only Xia Li walked in front of Roy alone.

Two teenagers of the same age and height looked into each other's eyes and were silent.

"Scarlett is my friend. So, I hate you so much!" Xia Li got straight to the point. The cold voice quieted everyone around. Tang Xiaoben and the others looked at Xia Li vigilantly, their eyes swept over Xia Qing and Ansel behind him from time to time, and the atmosphere was quite tense.

Roy didn't speak. He didn't see the hostility in Xia Li's eyes. Moreover, he did not feel any intention of attack from the two young men.

Xia Li said, paused for a while, and continued: "However, I must admit that it was our fault for giving you the challenge letter when you entered the school. "

This sentence made the students present suddenly stunned.

As we all know, although Xia Li is only a second-year student in the first training camp. However, his talent, identity and leadership have made him the heir to Pierre, the first man. In addition, the men of the Xia family are all upright by nature, and they would rather bend than bend. With his arrogance, it is unimaginable that he actually confessed his mistake to Roy in front of so many people.

Roy couldn't believe his ears, too. He looked at Xia Li, as if he had only known this person since this time.

"To be honest, my family was very annoyed by this," Xia Li said, "and after I went back, I was locked up for two weeks. During this time, I thought about a lot of things. "

"No matter what kind of contradictions we have, I should choose a more manly way to challenge you. Instead of bullying the weak. Instead of challenging you in the academy, it is better to defeat you on the battlefield in the way of a knight. Xia Li said slowly.

Behind him, Xia Qing and Ansel had a smile on their faces.

"What happened before, I hope to be able to end with my apology today," Xia Li said, "I admit that I am no longer your opponent." However, one day in the future, I will definitely challenge you again and beat you with dignity......!

Xia Li looked around.

"For the sake of the Empire, we should fight side by side. Compare, than whoever kills more Fireth!"

The students were silent.

This change in Muni City has brought a great touch to these young people. They watched almost as the city of Muni fell into disintegration, as the Lanris manipulated the rebellious nobles and dragged Lulian to the brink of ruin.

If it weren't for Eugene turning the tide, if it weren't for Roy defeating Kevin and giving Lanrees a resounding slap in the face, all that everyone tasted now was the consequences and shame of infighting.

Including many children of the nobility, everyone is only now realizing that although these contradictions and conflicts between them on weekdays are small, they are of the same nature. Over the years, how many shitty things have happened between nobles and commoners, and even between nobles and nobles, because of a trivial dispute? How many originally gifted students have been forced to leave the academy?

Calculate casually, in the first training camp, there are no less than three hundred civilian cadets who have left because they have been suppressed by the children of the nobility in the past ten years. And this time, the children of the nobles themselves tasted the consequences. In the conflict with Roy, Scarlett, Xia Li, Xiang Feng, Ning Maoer, and Klaus. Siwalker and others left one after another.

If it's in peacetime, it's fine.

However, this is the time of war for life and death. Could it be that in the face of the trampling of Fei Li's iron hooves, his own people still have to fight with their own people like this? Now it is just a trivial matter. However, the contradictions and estrangements between young people are also dividing the group. In the future, when it comes to the battlefield, who will believe that they can fight side by side and entrust their backs to each other?

For a while, everyone looked at Xia Li with admiration. At the same time, he also focused his attention on Roy.

With Xia Li's arrogance, he was able to put down his posture and apologize publicly in front of so many people. To be fair, it's not easy. Moreover, Xia Li has never expressed much opinion in Scarlett's aristocratic group. Most of the things like giving Roy a war letter were instigated by Siwalker and his gang, and Scarlett decided to do it.

Xia Li's problem is just too much of Scarlett's temperament. If you talk about him himself, he has a cold and indifferent character to everything. I'm not interested in this kind of thing.

Now, it's up to Roy.

For this commoner's son. There is only admiration in everyone's hearts.

There are a lot of rumors about Roy. In Polabel and in the city of Medin, he once fought to the death with the fierce Filies, not only rescued more than 2,000 civilians from Pollabel, but also led the rabble army to survive in the city of Medin, and served the Bavarian Knights under Sophia. It's a great opportunity to create a zĆ o.

It can be said that he is the most critical hero of the only great victory of the empire since the outbreak of that war!

Most of the people present have not even seen the appearance of the Ferrets.

If it is said. The previous ones were just legends that everyone had heard. What they saw was the words of a fierce wild boy who was unruly, who fought on the day of the camp, spit on the challenge book, and crushed Klaus's arm when he was injured, then, when they saw Roy rushing out of the barracks single-handedly, all the suspicion and contempt turned into respect.

At that moment, no one said that he was a coward who couldn't get out of the face of Kevin, and no one thought that his legends were just fictional boasting.

This wild boy in their eyes is more bloody than all of them!

In the conflict with Scarlett and others, Roy is the one who was provoked, and he doesn't have much responsibility. At most, this guy's reaction was a little more intense.

And now, it seems, is nothing. After all, that's what this guy is by nature.

Don't look at this kid's thin body and delicate appearance, in essence, he is like a monster that has entered the human world from the jungle, and he will always only have the most direct reaction to provocation. He dared to fight the Feilie people on the battlefield, how could he admit it in the face of a group of noble children?

Therefore, it is not strange that he did these things, but it is really strange if he didn't do this.

And now, in the face of Xia Li's apology, how will this grumpy wild boy react? You know, spitting in the challenge book and slapping Scarlett in the Grand Duke's Mansion is not something that a right-thinking guy can do. Besides, those things before were indeed too much deceived by the other party.

However, this time, everyone was too worried.

In the eyes of everyone, a smile appeared on Roy's face: "You're right," he said seriously, "Let's compare, we will kill more Filies." ā€

As he spoke, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand. Seeing him and Xia Li shaking hands. Tang Xiaoben and the others around him breathed a sigh of relief.

However, at this time, Xia Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "Since you agree with me, then, I think our competition should be on the same level." If you're in the Guards and we're excluded, I'm afraid it's not fair, right?"

Roy was dumbfounded.

Many of the girls on the side couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Xia Li has always been cold and never beats around the bush when he speaks, but he didn't expect that he was actually waiting for Roy here.

Apologizing, eliminating the bitterness between each other, you also agreed to compete in a new way. But how can it be fair that you go into the Guards alone and fight side by side with the elite of the elites, while the rest of us can only do some scraps?

With Xia Li's words, Pierre, Lanch, Womusley and others on the side also echoed it. Most of the other students may have come to see the excitement, but these few of them definitely have the strength to enter the Guards. Being inexplicably excluded makes them feel depressed. I came to Roy today to ask what happened.

"Alright, let's find a place to talk. Tang Xiaoben saw Roy's embarrassment, and rolled his eyes, "I know, there is a very good tavern on the strong street in the fifth block of the students. The boss, Uncle Worm, is my friend. He used to be a legendary mercenary, but he was wounded before he retired and opened this tavern. ā€

Such a mention yƬ. Naturally, no one objected. Especially Meng Meng, Griffin, who always likes to drink two glasses on weekdays, applauded loudly. After being in the camp for so long, they have long been locked up with itchy bodies and bitter mouths. It just so happened that martial law was lifted today, and there was a chance to go out for a walk, so naturally everyone was enthusiastic.

Roy couldn't dodge, so he nodded.

The other students who watched the excitement dispersed, and Tang Xiaoben. The members of Nicole's team, Annie, Ling Shuang, Ling Xue and other friends of Roy, as well as more than a dozen star students from the three major training camps, went to the stable with Roy to lead the horses and galloped out of the South Gate camp. Head towards the fifth block where the first training camp is located.

Soon, a bunch of young people. I entered the famous Avenue of the Strong, and stopped in front of a two-story tavern.

"Storm Bar," Tang Xiaoben, who led the way, dismounted, and said excitedly, "This is it!"

The arrival of a group of young knight cadets. It attracted the attention of the surrounding people. This is one of the streets with the highest concentration of taverns in the city of Munny, and right next to the Storm Tavern, there are no less than thirty taverns on display. Aromas of rum, beer, whiskey. You can smell it from afar. Not only were the taverns full, but even the streets were lined with tables.

Merchants, guards, mercenaries, and ruffians, liars, and thieves are the regulars here. The air is filled with the smell of male hormones at all times. Everybody looks fierce and hard to provoke. It's not uncommon here to get a big fight because of the wrong look.

However, it is clear that no one wants to provoke a bunch of knight cadets.

Not to mention that these boys are good, just the academy behind them, everyone can't afford to provoke them. Besides, now that these boys are knights in the army, the felony of attacking soldiers is not something they can afford.

The people who were drinking looked at these young people.

What makes everyone excited is that among these students, they have seen many star students. Pierre, Lanch, and Wormsley, the first of the three training camps, turned out to be all there. And what's even more surprising is that the black-haired kid who walked among them turned out to be Roy who fought Kevin!

The crowd immediately stirred, and many people pointed fingers at Roy and the others.

A day ago, the scene that happened in the South Gate Square was witnessed by many people present. Even sitting here at this moment, there are also most people's topics, and they can't get away from that wonderful battle. And at this moment, when he sees the characters in the topic, he appears in front of him, where can the big guy be indifferent?

"You're Roy, aren't you?"

As soon as Roy dismounted, an old man sitting at a table on the street reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Yes, sir," Roy looked a little shy and nodded under the gaze of countless eyes, "I'm Roy." ā€

"It's really you......! Yes, boy......" The old man was already flushed from drinking, and when he saw Roy nodding, he raised his thumb and burped loudly, "...... Well done!"

As the old man praised him, the drinkers on the side became excited, and some of them shouted Roy's name and raised their glasses to him. And many more stood up and applauded loudly.

"Roy, well done!"

"It's our son of Lulian!

"Next time someone does this, Roy, you're going to beat them up!"

"Come on, boys, you're all good!"

Applause, cheers, cheers, quickly spread along the street to both ends. Hearing Roy coming, people from farther afield rushed over.

The battle in South Gate Square is the hottest topic at the moment.

This storm has now spread to the entire Solan Empire. When they heard that the Lanris had gone south to Liwei, but were slapped such a resounding slap by the Lurians, everyone applauded.

And as a Lulian person, the big guy is naturally honored. Among the people who drank here, there were many people who were blowing with their friends who came to Muni City, and their mouths were foaming. In particular, the battle between Roy and Kevin was the most exciting. Every time I talk about it, not only the listener is fascinated, but the speaker is also enthusiastic.

Roy let out a bad breath for the big guys. What about the geniuses of the Holy Sect Martial Arts? It's not that they've lost to our Lulian disciples. Roy was still a freshman at the academy. If those star cadets come out, Kevin won't be able to find the north! Who said we don't have the soil of knights in Lulian? Phew! Find someone to try!

Until the barkeeper, Uncle Worm, personally greeted him and brought Roy and the others into the tavern. The applause and cheers slowly stopped.

People sit down, all unsatisfied. The young people who walked into the tavern were dazed and flattered by the sudden cheers and applause.

It was the first time they had received such cheers.

Perhaps, these people who gave a standing ovation were unknown; They are all ordinary people at the bottom. However, it is precisely because of this that this applause is particularly sincere and precious. Far from the hypocritical compliments they usually get at aristocratic balls.

It numbs and bores them, and it makes them proud.

Even though everyone knows that the protagonist of them is Roy, people are equally unstingy in giving applause to each of them. Let them share this glory with Roy.

Because, they are all trainees of the training camp. They are all the sons of Lulian, and they are the future forces of the Empire. In the future, they will set foot on the battlefield to fight the Phreels, to shed blood, to die. Defend this land with the sword in your hand, and defend the dignity, freedom and glory that belong to every saint-Soran person.

This applause is a compliment. It's also encouragement. When the long streets are filled with applause. Every young person is excited. Even if you walk into the tavern, you can't calm your feelings for a long time.

If they didn't know what they wanted before, they know now.

That's what they want!

Step inside the Storm Tavern. A commotion came to the face. The candle-lit hall was overcrowded. The mercenaries were fighting with each other in a provocative manner, or talking and laughing loudly with their shoulders around their shoulders, or flirting with prostitutes.

The boss, Uncle Bug, is a burly middle-aged man. He is in his forties. Previously in the Ice Star Mercenary Regiment. He served as the main soldier of the secondary mercenary team, and later retired due to injury. Ran this bar. Because of his rich experience, he has a high reputation among mercenaries, and he is popular, so business has always been good.

Gradually, the Storm Bar became a gathering place for mercenaries in Muni City. Whether it's a pastime for drinking, looking for adventurous companions, finding out news, or even posting some quests that can't be made to the mission hall, this is the place to be!

Seeing Roy, Uncle Worm was extremely enthusiastic.

Compared to the others, this Uncle Worm actually knows a little more about Roy.

At the beginning, it was the third-level mercenary teams of the Ice Star Mercenary Regiment [Blazing Light] and [Thorn] who escorted the flint consortium caravan to the imperial capital, but was attacked by the Black Skull bandits.

Alder, the captain of the Blazing Light team, is friends with Uncle Worm.

Therefore, while everyone else only knew the superficial plot of the Red Leaf Knights' long-distance raid to save the caravan, Uncle Worm knew even more.

According to Alder's words, it was none other than this boy named Roy who saved the flint consortium caravan and the cactus caravan. Moreover, even the Momiji Knights were called by him.

Coupled with these things that happened later, as well as some previous rumors, Uncle Worm was full of curiosity about Roy.

"Come, sit!"

There were still a few tables in the corner of the tavern, and Uncle Worm used his own face to let the two tables of mercenaries next to him give up their places and settle a group of young people. Soon, rum and beer in wooden cups were served like water.

After a few sips of wine and gossip for a while, everyone became warm. Everyone tacitly agreed not to mention the Guards at the beginning.

Annie, Ling Shuang, Ling Xue, Julie, Nicole, Eva and other girls got together to talk about some topics that women were interested in, and from time to time they let out a burst of crisp laughter. And the topic of the boys is naturally inseparable from the current war situation.

"I heard that yesterday General Fano won another battle, and a brigade of long knights around the rear crushed an infantry battalion of Friedau. forced the Chinese army to retreat. Several small camps on the front line have been taken down by us!"

Tang Xiaoben drank wine and said, "If you can maintain this posture all the time, then rescuing the Grand Duke is not completely hopeless." ā€

"I don't think it's that simple," Pierre said. "Although General Fano has fought well in these battles, in terms of strength and combat effectiveness, we are still at a disadvantage. ā€

"yes. Womusley agreed, "Our coalition is already the last force that Lulian can assemble." And the Firetes are still landing. It will be difficult to fight in the future. ā€

said. Womusley threw the conversation to Roy, "Roy, what do you think?!"

On the way to the Storm Tavern before, Pierre, Lanch, Voumsley and others all accosted Roy, intentionally or unintentionally. After all, they were all young people, and there was no direct conflict between them and Roy. Therefore, this deliberate friendship quickly erased the estrangement and alienation between each other.

Pierre and the others certainly felt that Roy was not as difficult to get along with as he thought. Roy also felt that as long as these guys removed the so-called mature and proud masks that their aristocratic children were accustomed to, they were actually no different from ordinary peers.

Pierre and Ranch were fine, especially this Wormsley, who looked the most sturdy and burly, but when they talked about topics of interest, they were like chatterbox.

"It's hard to say. Roy pondered and said. "On the battlefield, anything can happen. The strength of the force does not completely determine the final result. ā€

As he spoke, his mind flashed back to the map from the previous military meeting. His brow furrowed involuntarily, and his eyes stared at the candlestick on the table with some distraction. Said to himself:

"Actually, I don't think the Philae are as terrible as we think. Moreover, although their military strength is stronger than ours, it is not endless. Especially in recent times, the pace of their troop build-up seems to have slowed down a lot. ā€

"Oh?" Meng Meng said confusedly, "but I heard. In the port cities of the south, which were occupied by the Philogens, ships arrived every day. A large number of troops and supplies have come ashore. ā€

"That was some time ago," said Pierre, a nobleman who was obviously much more well-informed, "Roy is right, the rate at which the Philae have increased their forces has slowed down a lot. ā€

"Is there something wrong with Fei Li's country?" Eva, who was sitting next to Tang Xiaoben, turned her head and asked curiously.

As Eva interjected, the girls focused their attention as well.

"I don't know......" Pierre and the others looked at each other and shook their heads. This level of stuff is not something that young people like them can access.

However, at this time, I heard Roy, who had been frowning and thinking, say: "It's because of the Black Current." ā€

"Kuroshio?" everyone shouted as soon as they heard the name.

They are all sons of Loulian, and they are no strangers to such things as the Kuroshio. Even among them who live in the mainland, they have some understanding.

"Hmm. "Miss Anne knows, I used to work as a sailor on a ship. At this time of the year, the Kuroshio Current, which is in the Endless Sea, invades the offshore waters, and typhoons often occur at sea due to the Kuroshio Current. Going to sea in a typhoon is simply looking for death. And in addition to the typhoon, there is also the fog of confusion......"

As soon as they heard the fog of confusion, the students looked at each other at the same time.

Everyone knows that this strange and dangerous fog came with the Kuroshio. Whenever the Kuroshio Tide erodes the coast, this kind of fog will appear on the sea.

If you're lucky, you'll only have a few nautical miles in a fog, and you can get out of it if you sail straight. And if you are unlucky, you will encounter a super fog that envelops a radius of hundreds or even thousands of nautical miles, and any ship that sails into it will be destroyed and killed.

Extremely unlucky, they will even encounter the curse of the legendary Kraken, turning into a ghost ship that roams the Silent Sea forever.

One of the most famous ghost ships in Lulian is the Great Red Ship of the early Romance Dynasty.

It was a giant battleship called the Dreadnought. It is the first of five dreadnought-class battleships in the Romance Armada and the flagship of the Armadada.

During an expedition to the City of the Siren, the giant ship was swallowed up by a sudden fog and disappeared.

It wasn't until decades later that her sightings were spotted on the coast. And by this time, she had become a ghost ship. Forever adrift on the endless sea.

Because of the curse, none of the explorers who boarded the ship made it back alive. Even if you look at it from a distance, you will have a splitting headache and a serious illness.

There are many more legends like this. Except for the curse. It is also said that the Kraken that lives in the Endless Sea will come with the Kuroshio. The current Kraken, although it is not as powerful as three hundred years ago, when humans first arrived in the land of redemption. However, they were born to live in the sea, and they are still the overlords of the sea.

The invasion of the Kuroshio. It's like opening a passage to the endless sea and the calm waters on the shore. The Kraken often takes advantage of this time to attack the ships and plunder the supplies they need. And among these materials, weapons and armor, which they cannot produce, are their favorites.

Although the Feilie cavalry dominates the world, a boatload of cavalry, floating on the vast sea, is not only not a threat. Rather, it is a delicacy in the eyes of the Krakens.

If a troop carrier was attacked by a kraken, then there was a reasonable explanation for the Firet slowing down their troop buildup. After all, even if the front line needed to invest troops, no commander would be crazy enough to send precious troops into the mouth of the Kraken.

Roy talked about the impact of the Kuroshio Tide on the Philae Empire's troop buildup, and continued, "Also, since the Philae Empire seized the province of Pru. After breaking through the Longmen defense line in the east, they had actually opened the gates of the Empire. Both from the road. In terms of grain and grass logistics support and the speed and time of troop increase, these two directions are obviously much more convenient than coming from the sea. ā€

Listening to Roy's analysis, everyone nodded and discussed.

These are things that they had never considered before. Come on now. There is a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

Xia Qing and Ansel originally just sat on the sidelines, smiling and watching these young people who were several years younger than themselves talking about the situation, pointing out the country, and not interjecting. However, after hearing Roy's analysis. The two of them looked at each other, and a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.

"However, even so, in terms of troops, we are no match for the Philes," Anse El suddenly interjected, "It is said that the strength of the Southern Army of Ferry is as high as 100,000 men. ā€

"There shouldn't be so many!" Roy had been thinking hard, the more he thought about the strength, the more he understood, but when he looked at the military map before, he couldn't grasp the feeling that something was wrong.

"Why?" asked Ansel.

"The Kuroshio Wave has been invading since the beginning of April. Although the invasion is not deep, the ships of Fregor have to bypass Lizard Point and enter the edge of the Endless Sea, passing through the Silver Sands Islands, before they can enter our Lulian offshore. And there, it is usually the first danger area for the Kraken to attack," Roy said, "This means that the time for the Firet to increase their troops is actually only ten days after the Battle of Medin City!"

"At the time of the Battle of Medin City, the total strength of the Southern Army of Philip was only fifty or sixty thousand men. Moreover, more than 10,000 people were annihilated by us. In just a dozen days, it is impossible for them to complete the task of doubling the number of troops. In Roy's mind, he connected all the news and intelligence during this time, and the more he talked, the more confident he became.

And then, their surprise attack on Archduke Adolf, as well as the recent period of battle, proved this. If the number of troops reaches 100,000, not to mention that the Grand Duke can't hold on to it now, even the Red Leaf Knights and the Twelfth Legion will not be able to gain a firm foothold in defeat. ā€

Anse El and Xia Qing couldn't help but sit up straight.

Ansel is a member of the Renault family of the Tomahawk Knights, and Xia Qing, who is also from a military family, has been training in the army for many years before coming to Muni City. The knowledge of the two in military strategy far surpassed that of these little brothers and sisters present.

And Roy's analysis is like opening a window. They suddenly realized that the discussion in this tavern might have hit a key point in the war.

"Then what do you mean......" Xia Qing asked eagerly.

"I'm guessing, perhaps, Friedhorn is bluffing!" Roy was cautious in his mouth, but he had already made up his mind.

Still, his brow furrowed tightly. The problem that bothered him remained unresolved.

Bravado?
