Chapter Ninety-Eight: Surprise, Surprise

"What a change. It was late in the evening when Jason and the others arrived at Darbia, and he was amazed at the changing walls of the town.

The town's rudimentary wooden walls have been strengthened and widened, with wooden watchtowers at the base that also serve as arrow towers.

"Let's go, let's go in. ”

Since the sentry on the watchtower had already spotted their group, someone had probably run back to report Gareth at this point, and Jason thought it would be better for him to hurry in.

Otherwise, it would be troublesome and wordy to wait for that guy to come out to greet him, so it would be more cost-effective to go in early and rest.

......

Eastern Front.

The siege had been going on for several days, and the Slave Legion had suffered heavy losses, less than 3,000 men, and the First Infantry Legion had suffered more than half of the casualties.

The army on the megalithic fortress had also been stained with a dark red layer of blood, and their casualties had exceeded 10,000 soldiers, and every soldier was exhausted at this time, because the attacks of the Duchy of Lion were too frequent and fierce.

It was completely a fierce charge that was not afraid of death, and he was attacking the city with a mentality of killing one and killing two to make a fortune, which made Lopez's soldiers feel extremely frightened.

However, the defense of the Great Stone Fortress is still strong, which makes the already unhappy Grand Duke Cameron even more irritable.

"It's been so long, it's been so long, and our offensive is still not working, and our reserves will not be enough for us to consume!" he walked up and down the tent, and for a few days his neat hair and beard had dimmed a lot.

All the noble generals in the military tent bowed their heads and did not know how to answer.

This is one of the drawbacks of his blitzkrieg, when he broke through the three eastern counties, the local defenders did not leave them with supplies at all, all of them were burned by a fire, and now their supplies can only be provided by the Lion Duchy, but it is a little too late in time.

"Sir, wait, wait, wait. Master Orin persuaded him.

"Wait?" Grand Duke Cameron had a gloomy face, and he didn't give him a good look at the master of Orin who he relied on so much on weekdays.

"I can wait, but the enemies outside can't!"

"As soon as we run out of supplies and the enemies in the Boulder Fortress rush out, what should we do?

"My lord, then let them attack us. Master Orin smiled grimly and whispered.

......

"It's coming, it's coming, the fish is about to take the bait. ”

"Will we succeed?"

"We have to succeed. ”

"Yes. ”

......

"My lord, why didn't you inform me before you came? Gareth stood at the door of Irbia's barracks, grumbling at the sight of Jason, and then motioned to Lonnat, but neither of them spoke.

He was still so mentally handsome, but he had a beard on his chin and looked attractive, no wonder Eve would be fascinated by him, Jason thought to himself as he looked at Gareth.

"It's too troublesome, I'm not here for you to feast me. Jason said with a smile waving his hand, and then looked at the newly renovated barracks, which looked a little bit like the barracks in Irontooth.

"How's the construction of Erbia going lately?"

"All is going well, nothing has gone wrong, and a team of 100 men sent by Miss Wellright is also building the casino as soon as possible, hoping to complete it before the beginning of spring. ”

"And they helped us strengthen the walls for free. ”

Jason saw this, the walls of Erbia were indeed very strong, although they were still wooden walls, but they could already resist the attacks of ordinary enemies.

"Where did you choose the location of the casino?"

"The most central location in Erbia and the heart of the entertainment district. "Since this project is to be a key development, it is necessary to set aside the best location.

"By the way, my lord, I got something some time ago, and you should be very interested. As the two walked along, Gareth suddenly seemed to remember something and said happily to Jason.

"What's that?"

"Star Stone. ”

"How much?" Jason's eyes lit up, he sent someone out to search for a long time, but there was no gain, Villerett had promised him to buy another batch for him, but there was no news so far, Jason wondered if this girl had forgotten about it.

"One piece!"

"Only one piece?" Jason was a little disappointed, what is one piece enough for?

"It's about the size of a shield. Gareth added faintly.

"Take me there!" Jason had a black line on his face, why didn't he see it before, this guy still has a bad taste, is it really good to hang my appetite like this?

Ronnat was smiling uncomfortably, this Gareth was really wilted.

"So big!"

Jason looked at the small round shield-sized star stone that Gareth had moved out of the house, and exclaimed, such a large star stone must be worth a lot of money, right?

"It's also a stroke of luck to come across this thing. Gareth sighed.

It turned out that a merchant had asked him for help, saying that his goods had been robbed by a group of robbers, and that he had only saved his life under the protection of the caravan guards, and that he hoped that Gareth would send troops to help him recapture the goods, and that he could give one-third of these goods to the government of Erbia at that time.

When Gareth heard this, there were still robbers active in the Iron Tooth Collar, which he could not turn a blind eye to, so he went with his soldiers to suppress the bandits, and the bandits went smoothly, and the merchant's goods were recovered.

Gareth was surprised to find this star stone in these goods, and I have to say that it is indeed a creation of people.

Because this stone has been used by the merchant as a lucky object for more than ten years, because such a large star stone is really rare, in the end Gareth said that he did not want a third of his goods, just give him this stone.

Of course, the merchant readily agreed.

"The integrated energy source was detected, whether it was absorbed or not. ”

Sure enough, if there is milk, it is a mother, and the system with a very low sense of existence popped out at this time, indicating to Jason that it was still there.

"Ronnat, go out and keep watch. Jason looked up at Ronnat and the two men.

"Yes!"

"Start absorbing!" After the two of them went out, Jason said to the system with excitement on his face.

"Started to absorb and gained 3,300 points, and currently the host has 3,513 points left. ”

Jason is beautiful in his heart, if he can use these points to draw a few times in a row, he may be able to get a lot of good things.

But he was a little hesitant, after all, it was true that he had a lot of luck last time to draw so many good things, but the lottery must be drawn, and at least three high-level draws must be conducted.

"System, ready for the draw. "It was useless to hold so many points in his hand, but Jason decided to use them right away.

The unexpected joy of this trip to Erbia was truly amazing.

"Please select a lottery tier. "The system responds seriously, and it's quite serious at this time.

But the poisonous tongue can make Jason angry.

"Conduct a premium draw. Jason rubbed his hands, this was his pre-draw fondness.

"The premium draw begins, and 1000 points are deducted. ”

Jason asked for a pain in the flesh, hoping that the reward wouldn't be too bad.

"After the lottery is completed, please check it out by yourself. A card floated in front of Jason's eyes, shimmering with a mesmerizing halo.
