Chapter Ninety-Three: Agaret's Friends
Casio's preparations for the upcoming war have basically been completed, and the next time is to start manufacturing "Oooh Boom", "Face Flower" and "Honeycomb Bomb" in large quantities according to his preparations. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At the same time, the construction of the city walls was also going on schedule, and Casio even sent Agaret to constantly patrol the perimeter of the walls of Greenwater, expelling or capturing as many scouts as possible sent by Count Cavin.
After all, in times of war, the most important thing is intelligence!
And in order to prevent intelligence leakage to the greatest extent, he also completely blocked the entire Greenwater Town, only allowing Douglas's people to enter, but if he wanted to get out, it was not so simple.
After Sisko and the others completely completed the construction of the road, Casio also gathered them and asked them to train with Arise and the others, quickly entering a state of readiness from a relaxed state, and at the same time to hone their cooperation with each other.
Although the entire town of Greenwater has been completely put into a state of combat readiness, the townspeople still don't know anything, and are just happy for the growing strength of the guards and construction of Greenwater.
The work on war preparedness was proceeding as scheduled, and the businesses that could sustain the war, such as papermaking, were naturally not left behind.
As Douglas added people with special skills as scheduled, Casio once again improved the disc mill, allowing those with forging skills to make a large machine that could grind raw materials with simple mechanical actions.
Everything is going on as scheduled, and the threat from the outside is also imminent.
Putting down the latest letter in his hand, Casio smiled coldly, as he expected, the eldest princess Yarita really did not allow him to delay for half a minute, and stated in the letter that she would send someone to "greet" Casio in person!
After reading this letter, Casio had enough reason to believe that in the near future, there would be an "emissary" of Alita to persuade him, and if he did not agree, it is estimated that what awaits him is the guards of Alita and the army of the city of Outes, which are immediately following this "emissary".
"But this time, Muriel is quite clever. Casio muttered to himself.
During this period of time, he naturally maintained access to external information through his contact with Douglas.
First of all, in the past few months, the Waltis Empire has obviously gained an all-round advantage, but it suddenly put forward the conditions for peace, which can't help but make the Graka Empire and several principalities involved in the war overjoyed.
However, until the evolution of history, Casio shook his head and sighed, the army of the Waltis Empire this time was only the vanguard, and the reason why he suddenly proposed to negotiate peace in the situation of dominance was to delay the pace of these principalities and the Graka Empire, so that their subsequent armies could follow.
Pity these nobles who have become accustomed to pampering, and they don't even understand this.
No, maybe some of them have already figured it out, but there are so many problems in the old empire of Glaka that there is no time to separate.
Based on this, Muriel also rejected Yarita's request for him to return to the royal capital of Dawn City immediately to attend the funeral of Grand Duke Ksma, ostensibly on behalf of the Duchy of Dolan and fully cooperate with this peace negotiation.
He obviously also understood that the sudden death of Grand Duke Kersma in battle this time not only caused great trouble, but also gave him a chance.
If he really obeys Yarita's words and returns to the royal capital Dawning City, it is estimated that he will not think about being able to come out, let alone about the throne.
After all, when he went back to attend the funeral, it was impossible for him to go back directly with the army.
For the two princes who were not taking to heart the order of the temporary acting king who was nominally coordinating the entire principality, Casio didn't have to think about it, and this was enough to make Yarita, who had always been arrogant, angry enough to make her furious.
Casio was analyzing the situation when Maester Dane knocked on the office.
"Your Royal Highness, friends of the Knight of Agaret have arrived, and are waiting for your summons below. Maester Dain saluted and said in a harmonious voice.
Without hesitation, Casio asked Master Daine to invite them in, tidied up his meter a little, and waited for each other.
Agaret and these friends were already the last group of people Casio asked everyone around him to contact friends to come to Greenwater, and the students of Dain's Bachelor had already arrived a few days ago, and after meeting Casio a little, they joined the intense and busy work.
After waiting a short time, I saw Master Dane come to the office with three men and two women, dressed as adventurers.
The moment he saw these five people, Casio's eyes lit up.
Despite all the wind and dust along the way, Casio could clearly see from the five of them their full mental state and clear eyes, as if they were in a state of vigilance at all times, on the lookout for any possible danger.
Casio has always had no arrogance, and immediately got up to greet him enthusiastically, which made the faces of these five people can't help but be surprised, obviously this treatment made them a little flattered.
The adventurers seem to be very high-quality, but in fact, they are all people who take on tasks and get bounties and mess around with knives, and they may die in the wilderness at any time.
Usually the nobles they see are not arrogant, and those with a slightly better attitude will say a few more words to them, and people like Casio who get up to greet them as soon as they meet do surprise these people.
Casio didn't care about that, beckoning them to sit down, and at the same time took the initiative to open up the topic and start talking.
Although they were a little uncomfortable, these people performed fairly well and did not seem too restrained because of this.
The two sides briefly exchanged pleasantries and made a mutual introduction, so that Casio understood the names and strengths of these people.
The man of the five, who was burly and stronger than Agaret, and who looked honest and honest, was nearly thirty years old, and was the captain of this team, and also a heavy shieldman, named Marcus, who was at a high level of strength.
Another young man who looked calm and introverted, twenty-five or six, was Girard, an assassin in the team, and Morse, who was in the middle rank, and a young man with a handsome face, who was the archer of the team, Morse.
As for the remaining two women, they were a pair of sisters, the elder sister was twenty-three or fourteen years old, and her name was Mela, and the younger sister looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, and looked delicate and lovely, and her name was Cecilia.
The most important thing is that these two sisters are actually Lingzi battle masters, the elder sister is good at fire Lingzi, and the younger sister is good at wood Lingzi, and their strength is at the intermediate level.
There are only five people in this team, but there are actually two high-level strength and three middle-level strength among them, and among the adventurers, they can all have some good reputation.
After a brief exchange, Casio also learned that they met by chance after Agaret was banished by the Temple of Justice, and Agaret had also fought together in their team for a while.
It's just that Agaret has always pursued the honor of knights, so in the end he separated from them.
Casio is quite satisfied with the initial understanding of these five people, and as for their character, since they can have such a good relationship with Agaret, Casio can naturally trust them.
After all, Agaret was loyal to Casio since then, because His Royal Highness the former prince of the second ancestor, accidentally helped him when he almost starved to death.
