Section 3: Thorn Rose (Part II)
"Chief, I really admire it. Benneid looked at the confession in his hand, and then looked at the departing officer: "There seems to be nothing in this world that you can't do, and it's only been a long time since they all have the appearance of soldiers." ”
"Harsh environments always lead to growth. Townsend quietly bypassed the topic: "The fat man seems to be honest, but in fact he is very cunning, I estimate that in two days, he should tell the truth-what do you think?
"Let the chief smile, I was blinded by anger. This kind of thing is always better arranged by the chief than me. Bennaider shook his head: "My people have gradually calmed down, and there is no need to use this method to appease them. It is still important to let them continue the interrogation and get the real information. ”
"In that case, let's continue the interrogation. ”
Townsend nodded, it turned out that Benneid's personal ability was very good after removing the burden of hatred, so he reminded him: "Although there are still doubts about the time, it is undoubtedly premeditated in the affairs of Harvey Town, and I am afraid that the planner behind it is not simple." ”
"What does the leader mean - the fat man's family was pushed out by the black man behind the scenes?" Bennaid asked suspiciously, "But isn't there a trace of the underground auction?"
"It's hard to find out about the underground auction house, because we can't go back to Yaxiu in the short term, and it's not clear whether there is real information there, so it's easy to cut off the clues that are easily thrown at us. Townsend said: "But this behavior of the other party must be meaningful, and they auctioned off the smuggling route, not because of the lack of a few dollars." Most likely, they are trying to confuse or divert the gaze of others......"
"So what should we do?"
"Put it down. Townsend said: "We are too weak to touch this level at all. ”
"I understand that our priority is to survive and thrive. Of course, Benneth knew Townsend's purpose in saying this, and in fact, Townsend's explanation to him had already touched Bennett: "So what is the leader going to do next?"
"Training. Townsend spat out two short words and paused for a moment before explaining, "The camel team also has to practice, because our next direction is the west coast, which is different from the kind of mountain road that everyone walked before." ”
"Understood. Bennaider nodded: "I'll make plans on the caravan's side." ”
"I'll have to think about the rest of the details for two days before I can come up with them, at least until the matter on the chief's side is settled. With enough people on our hands, we can do the following things well. In front of his subordinates, Townsend will never hesitate, this strong self-confidence and determination is actually a very important part of his personal charm: "You go to the rest meeting, don't get tired." ”
Back in his room, Townsend couldn't go to bed to make up for his sleepiness, because he was the leader, and sleeping in the daylight would affect morale. He could only wipe his face and begin to close his eyes and reflect, thinking about what he had not done well recently, and what loopholes he still needed to fill urgently......
The most fortunate thing is that the Thorn Rose won the first battle!
Although the enemy is relatively loose, this victory is not fake, and everyone has a knife and a shot!
This "extremely brilliant" result not only united people's hearts, but also helped Townsend suppress the negative emotions in the team to a large extent, and also bought enough time for Thorn Rose's next plan.
On the other hand, the natives of the West Coast are simple-minded, and the warriors worship the strong from the bottom of their hearts, and can lead them to victory, and can give them practical benefits, which greatly enhances Townsend's prestige - although the tribal warriors are all brought back by the chief village chief, this is Townsend's intention.
If you don't let them go back, how can you bring back more people?
The only problem is what the chiefs and village chiefs are planning, and I hope they can see a little farther.
In terms of the internal arrangements of Thorn Rose, although the current number of people is not large, it is still necessary to establish a stable and stable headquarters system as soon as possible. Because the Thorn Rose will expand in the future, it will be a force that includes many classes and castes. In terms of composition, it will become more and more complex, and balance and inclusiveness are key, so the headquarters cannot be controlled by the merchant group or the army at the beginning.
The only thing that can influence the thorn rose is the development strategy formulated by Townsend.
Otherwise, Thorn Rose will either follow in Harvey's footsteps, or become a local warlord power. But in Townsend's view, both groups have Achilles' heels, and neither is something to compete for.
He needs the Thorn Rose to continue to develop and not be tied hand and foot by any factors......
Say a thousand ways and ten thousand, the foundation must be laid well and solidly!
After thinking about it for a while, Townsend already had a belly case, but the next details would not be confirmed until a few days later. So he stopped doing useless work, got up, drank a glass of water, took out his homework and went to the roof......
Townsend enjoys learning abilities on the rooftop, partly because it's quieter than the room, and partly because it's easier to maintain a sense of mystery by standing high and seeing from afar.
From the perspective of ordinary ability learning, Townsend has taken the most crucial step, he has been able to awaken the power of the ability. Although the power of this awakening is a bit small, it is 100% his own, and the "roar" he emits on this basis is more powerful and controllable than the ability to steal others.
If you combine other traits with Janssen's abilities, his progress is obvious.
Because beginner ability apprentices have a limited number of awakenings, so is the frequency with which they can use Roar, which is not the case with Townsend. For now, ten or twenty awakenings in a row were not a problem for him, and his strength far surpassed that of the others, even the performance of the Mistress of the Ability Notes.
Being forced to compare himself to a little girl makes Townsend depressed. So he sighed very emotionally, whether it was to be a leader or to learn abilities, it was not an easy task!
According to Townsend's self-judgment, his awakening strength is probably at the level of a junior ability apprentice, but his actual combat ability exceeds that of an intermediate apprentice, and in a confrontational state, he is not afraid even if he encounters a senior apprentice - because he can see the opponent's ability and can counterattack before the opponent launches.
Awakening the ability is a bit more cumbersome than combat, as Townsend skips the obstacle of the ability apprentice of "Perception Training".
He can see the ability directly, so there is no urgent need for this aspect, and the perception training is very arduous and very boring - not only to compare the simplest gesture thousands of times, but also to achieve the strange requirements of "soberness", "calmness", "communication between heaven and earth", "dialogue with the ability".
It's just driving people crazy!
The benefits of skipping over are significant, saving time and moving on to practical use right away.
