Chapter 40: Expansion of the Guard

[If there is something today, there will be a chapter]

Sean responded with a smile. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info can see that these people have respect for Sean from the bottom of their hearts. Sean opened up financial resources for them, improved their lives, and established a knight guard to protect them. Such a lord naturally won the hearts of the people.

"I didn't expect you to be quite powerful. ”

Novia quipped.

"Hey, that's. Sean was talking to Novia as he responded to the residents of Beecher Town, thinking about Elena's shipment.

"Fifty sets of warrior equipment, 50 gold coins, a set of high-grade potion instruments, 30 gold coins. Counting the previous cost, there are 152 gold coins left. ”

This does not include the quest reward for the 35 lower-grade Magic Crystals of the Frost Crystal Elixir.

35 low-grade magic crystals, about 110 gold coins.

The construction of the knight's territory needs money everywhere, and Sean doesn't know how long 152 gold coins can last. Fortunately, there is also a fixed share of 100 gold coins per month in the starting point library.

"The gold is enough for the time being, and the Guard needs to be expanded. Recruit two hundred warriors at once, and Beecher Town and Evan Town can support it. In addition, the construction of territorial infrastructure, the exploration of surrounding territories, and the ...... of defense construction"

Territory building is not a simple matter, and a lot of things need to be made in detail. Panis returned to the knight for more than ten days, and Sean was ready to discuss with her, brainstorming is the right way.

Walk through the small town of Beecher to the familiar Lord's Manor.

At Sean's request, Panis has expanded the lord's estate. The current manor is in no way inferior to the original isolated knights' manor, and various buildings have been built. The school grounds and dormitories of the Knights' Guards were separated, right on the edge of the Lord's Manor, next to the swampy forest.

Sean and Novia return on their horses, and the people in Beecher Town and the Lord's Manor soon receive the news. As soon as he arrived at the lord's manor, Panis, who had not been seen for many days, came out to greet him with two butlers and a few servants. Maxwell, the small-town clerk of Beecher Town, also arrived from his residence.

"Panis. ”

Seeing Panis, Sean dismounted and stepped forward to hug him.

Panis also hugged Sean generously, hugging her tighter than Sean. Feeling that Panis missed, Sean gently patted Panis on the back and whispered in Panis's ear, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"It's not hard. Panis replied softly, still as beautiful as it sounded.

"Hmph, how long are you going to hug me?" Novia's big grin sounded from the side, disturbing Sean and Panis's good atmosphere.

Sean reluctantly let go of Panis and introduced, "Panis, this is my friend Novia at the Academy. ”

"Hello, Miss Novia. Panis greeted politely.

Novia, who was familiar with herself, stepped forward and hugged Panis's arm, and said with a smile, "Panis, just call me Novia." I've seen you many times in the starting point library, but I never had a chance to meet you, but I didn't expect to see you here. ”

Both of them are girls, and Novia is even more familiar, and the two get acquainted with each other very quickly, and after a few words, they are sisters and sisters.

Sean stood aside and watched the two talk, with a smile on his face.

When Maxwell arrived, Sean led the group into the manor.

The estate was renovated and the buildings were overturned and rebuilt on a larger scale. In the manor affairs hall, Sean sat at the head, Panis, Novia, Maxwell, and Bennett and Osveld, the two captains of the knightly guard.

Neither has changed much.

Panis is already a third-level mage. With the help of the Cleansing Elixir, Panis, who was originally a second-level mage, quickly broke through. Sean just brought the water system intermediate meditation method this time, and after Panis transferred to the cultivation, the progress can be faster.

Everyone took their seats, waiting for Sean to speak.

Sean cleared his throat and looked first at Agent Maxwell.

"How's the Magic Ape Wood Carvings in Beecher and Evan Towns?"

The magic ape wood carving has been implemented in Beecher Town for more than half a month. The last time Bennet reported was that only thirty or forty people could carve a qualified magic ape wood carving. However, it is expected that three to four hundred people will be qualified within a month.

Maxwell stood up and handed the ledger to Sean.

As Sean flipped through the ledger, Maxwell said, "My lord, as of last night, there were 112 people in Beecher Town and Evan Town who had carved a good wood carving. According to the lord's price, the knight leader bought it for 10 copper coins per piece of demon ape wood carving. A total of 158 pieces of Demon Ape wood carvings were purchased, and all the good ones were stacked in the treasury of the lord's manor. “

For most of the month, 158 pieces of magic ape wood carvings are not many at first glance, and the cost of acquisition is only 1580 copper coins, less than 16 silver coins. But it should be taken into account that the lords of the knight domain have just come into contact with the demon ape wood carving, and the craft is not yet proficient. Over time, this number will certainly increase considerably.

"Not bad. ”

Sean went through the ledger and found that the accounts were clear, and nodded in affirmation.

Maxwell sat down with a smile.

Sean looked at Bennet and Oswald again and asked, "How's the training for the Knights' Guard?"

Bennet and Osveld glanced at each other, and Bennet, the older and stout man, said, "Lord Hui, the brothers are very serious in training, and they have all practiced the Demon Flame Battle Technique. It's just that everyone's weapons are not good, and the efficiency of hunting beasts to obtain meat is not high, and too much time is wasted. ”

The weapons of the former Knight Leader Guards were destroyed a lot during the battle, and only a small part could be used. Most of the soldiers of the Guard were still armed with rudimentary wooden weapons.

"I've got the warrior equipment ready, and I'll send it in a few days, so you don't have to worry about it. Sean said.

When the fifty sets of warrior equipment that Elena got through special channels arrive, some of the equipment problems can be solved. However, Sean plans to expand the knight guard to two hundred people, and even if fifty sets of equipment are disassembled, there is still a lot of difference.

"Looks like we're looking for other ways. Sean said secretly in his heart.

Suppressing these thoughts, Sean continued to ask, "Are there any other questions? ”

Bennett had a rectum, Sean asked, and he said.

"My lord, brothers are prone to injuries while training and hunting. Injuries can affect training, and it's a lot better these days with Miss Panis. However, the subordinates wondered if they should find a few pharmacists, and some ordinary injuries could be treated by the pharmacists. ”

"That's a problem. ”

Bennett didn't mention it, and Sean really didn't think about this problem.

In this world, ordinary civilians can't afford to hire a water mage for medical treatment, so they can only find an ordinary doctor. Physicians treat diseases based on their extensive experience and common medicinal herbs. The effect is not as immediate as that of the Water Mage, but it is cheaper.

"It's too extravagant to hire a water mage, so let's find a few doctors to deal with it first. However, water mages are also not missing, and earth mages are also useful for building territories. ”

Sean pinched his eyebrows, a little headache.

There are really not many mages who are willing to come to such a remote place as Beecher Town, and those who are willing to come are some low-level mages. It doesn't matter if the strength is a little lower, the point is that the price is too high.

"But you always have to cultivate a group of mages that belong to the knight realm, maybe you can prepare now. Raise those low-level mages to be more loyal to the knights. ”

After looking down and thinking for a while, Sean reacted to Bennett's question and replied, "Tomorrow, I will send someone to find out if there are any doctors willing to come to the knight's collar, it doesn't matter if the price is a little higher." Then find the Chamber of Commerce to buy some recovery potions and healing potions for backup, and the funds will be advanced from Panis. ”

There are physician treatments, recovery potions and healing potions, the training intensity of the knight leader guard soldiers can be increased, and the combat power of the guard can also be formed in advance.

"Yes, my lord. ”

Bennett answered, indicating understanding.

Seeing that Bennett had no other problems, Sean continued, "There are only twenty warriors in the knight's leading guard now, but there are more than 3,000 residents in Beecher Town and Evan Town, and this force is too small to resist once a thief group raids or a beast attacks. So I'm ready to expand the size of the knightly guard. ”

The Thieves are a problem that plagues the entire Kingdom of Strach, and even the three kingdoms. Soldiers who are not in production, or criminals who are on the run, gather to form evil bands of thieves and plunder villages, towns, and caravans.

The towns of Avon and Beecher have heard of the notoriety of the thieves, even if they are remote. Not to mention that some time ago, there was a 'thief group' that attacked the knight's manor and killed all the soldiers of the knight's guard, which was terrible!

"Egbert knows that I am back in the knights' realm, and I will definitely not be idle. ”

Sean said secretly in his heart.

Hearing Sean's words, Osvid was the most excited, and hurriedly asked, "Lord Lord, I don't know how many people you want to expand the Knight Guard? Many people in Beecher Town and Evan Town want to join the Guard, and they ask us all day long. If you're hiring, you're bound to have a lot of people joining. ”

Osvid is now one of the two squad leaders of the Knight Guard. If the knight's guard is expanded, the number of warriors under his command will definitely increase. Ausveld was naturally concerned.

Bennett didn't speak, but the look on his face betrayed him.

Not just the two of them, but the affairs officers Maxwell, Panis, and Novia all looked at Sean.

Sean smiled and said, "200!"

......

The increasingly lively towns of Beecher and Evan are even more lively these days. Lord Sean returned, and soon released the news-

The Knight Guard will be expanded to 200 people!

At present, there are only 20 warriors in the knight guard, which means that 180 warriors will be recruited.

The lords who did not catch up with the first wave of recruitment received the news and immediately rushed to the lord's manor outside Beecher Town. The monthly salary of one silver coin, the ability to learn combat skills, and participate in training, is what many lords expect.

The day after Sean returned to the knight's domain, the outside of the lord's manor was already crowded. Most people still came to see the excitement, but there were also many people who came to participate in the recruitment assessment of the knight guard.
