746. Letter from the city of Bena

The daytime battle quieted the demonic beasts of the Dodan Canyon, in the garrison camp.

Some of the townspeople gathered around the camp, not only watching the infantry carrying the corpses of the monsters, but also some of the townspeople volunteering to help push the rolling stones to the side of the hanging tower, after all, these rolling stones still need to be transported to the forty-meter-high city wall, and the simple wooden hanging tower is built on one side of the city wall.

The merchants of the town also gathered around the barracks, looking at the carloads of monster corpses transported into the barracks, and kept shouting slogans such as 'buy leather, teeth, and magic cores at a high price'.

They were eager to stop the carriage and snatch several monster corpses from it.

The infantry were unmoved, and if a merchant tried to approach, they would be warned by the cavalry next to them.

The corpses of the demonic beasts that were transported into the military camp, skinned and carried, and in the end not even the bones were transported, and now a large number of demonic beasts are surrounded under the northern city wall, and there is no mercenary group that can go out of the city to hunt in this situation.

If the mercenaries want to hunt monsters, they can only temporarily register as assistants in the town of Dodan at the barracks.

Only then can they take turns to climb the city, and the number of assistants who can climb the city walls every day is limited to twenty, and they are not allowed to leave the town of Dodan at will during the beast tide, otherwise they will be disqualified as volunteers.

On the city wall, it is impossible to hunt magical beasts without excellent archery, and the mercenaries can only carry a few magical beasts from the city every day.

Such a number simply could not satisfy the merchants of the town of Dodan.

Selena was approached by some merchants who wanted to explain the situation to her, and wanted her to open a trade route from the barracks to the town's merchants.

With so many Warcraft materials, everyone wants a piece of the pie.

In this regard, Selena and Surdak also talked a lot, Surdak felt that these merchants were some speculators, they did not help the development of the town in any way, and once the beast tide passed in the future, they did not know where they would go, this kind of speculative businessmen really had nothing to cooperate with.

Selena hopes to establish some contact with these merchants, mainly about the price of these Warcraft materials, now the seller has the right to speak, and the price of Warcraft materials should naturally be set by the side of the military camp.

Seeing that the military camp was finally willing to take out some of the Warcraft materials to trade with the local merchants, the merchants all came over at once.

Surdak knew that he couldn't finish peeling so much leather, so he decided to take out some monsters and sell them whole.

Nowadays, this kind of moonblade fire wolf that is only a first-level moon blade fire wolf has a very limited amount of value on its body, so the price of a moon blade fire wolf is also very transparent.

After deducting the transaction tax that needs to be paid, Surdak left these merchants with only 15 out of a hundred profits, and if these fire wolf leathers were shipped to Wilkes City, they could make more money.

Although the profit has been thinned down a lot, it is better than nothing.

……

After each major battle, Surdak gets extremely busy.

A large number of wounded people need to be treated by Surdak himself, and while the magic power on the demonic beast has not yet been dissipated, as much skin as possible, only then can the skinning be possible to harvest the life magic pattern.

When the wounded soldiers were withdrawn from the battlefield, the wounds were treated simply by a rescue team organized by the town hall.

When Surdak returned from the battlefield, he only needed to use the Holy Light Technique to rehabilitate the wound, so this treatment process was relatively simplified, saving Surdak a lot of valuable time.

Only some unlucky and seriously injured people still need Surdak to start the sacrificial ceremony, and exchange the sacrifice for the blessing of the gods of the 'blessed body' to help them get through the most dangerous period.

Surdak had already converted the guest room on the first floor of the small building where he lived into his makeshift medical room.

And the kitchen next door is where he skins the monsters, and the two rooms are just separated by one wall.

Surdak dragged his tired body and asked his cavalry to carry a seriously wounded man out, and then stood at the door of the small building and shouted listlessly: "Next! ”

"That...... Commander, the one just now is the last one. The cavalry guard guarding the door of the small building whispered to Surdak.

"Gone? Then go and get some rest! Surdak looked up at the night sky, and before he knew it was midnight, he commanded the cavalry guards beside him.

The night sky is full of stars.

In the town of Dodan, the starry sky you can see is like a long river flowing slowly from south to north.

Only when you get out of the town of Dodan and run into the vast meadow can you see the full starry sky.

The wooden hut dormitory at the barracks was still lit, and a group of soldiers gathered at the door of the canteen, looking at the merit exchange list and calculating the day's gains.

The merit exchange list at the entrance of the cafeteria has aroused the enthusiasm of many fighters, although the daily battle is very dangerous, but many fighters hope to fight on the front line.

The fighters in the barracks were in high spirits, and Surdak breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when Surdak looked in the direction of the stable, he saw that more than 20 aboriginal herdsmen were dealing with a batch of wounded war horses, and the dead war horses were also placed outside the empty field.

In the battle during the day, at least 200 horses were lost, which was Surdak's biggest loss.

There is no way, using the Gubolai horse as the mount of the heavy cavalry is a bit reluctant in itself, and countless armored war horses collide with demonic beasts on the battlefield, so that the war horses have also been hit hard, which is what makes Surdak feel the most headache.

……

Quartermaster Handel brought in the third shipment.

In addition to this, two letters of mail from the city of Bena were delivered.

As a token of appreciation, Surdak took the time to meet him and took him to breakfast in the barracks' canteen.

Breakfast was baked wheat cakes and broth, with a broth of shredded onions and tomatoes, and sure enough, it tasted a little better.

But these vegetable ingredients alone still can't hide the sour taste of these fire wolf meats.

While eating, Surdak asks Handel about the party.

The adventuring party in the town of Dodan disappeared as if out of thin air, and suddenly disappeared without a trace.

He was a little strange, the beast tide was coming, what else could these adventure groups do when they left the border town?

"I heard that after the beast tide comes, there will always be some demonic beasts that will cross the Thorny Mountains and enter the occupied area of the Grimm Empire, and other places in the occupied area of the Bailin Plane will also be attacked by demonic beasts, these adventure groups are scattered to various towns in the occupied area, taking the opportunity to hunt those lonely demonic beasts, not only is it safer, but sometimes they can also get the rewards of the town or nobles."

Quartermaster Handel said to Surdak.

"I heard that the situation in Nantu Town and Plantos Town is much more serious than yours, so the next supplies will be tilted towards those two towns first."

Surdak asked curiously, "Did something happen?" ”

Handel, the quartermaster, whispered, "I heard that a group of demonic beasts successfully climbed over the city wall and rushed into the town, and it seems that many people died......"

"Ahh How so? Surdak said in surprise.

After all...... The beast tide is not here yet!

……

This time, Handel Quartermaster took advantage of the convenience of transporting armaments and delivered the first deliveries from Hathaway and Beatrice to Surdak.

Surdak is quite sympathetic to this.

He asked Handel Quartermaster to pick among the corpses of the Moonblade Fire Wolves, take whichever one he liked, and give it to him as a gift symbolizing friendship.

It's not a bribe, it's friendship.

The first letter was written by Beatrice herself.

——

'My dear, I would love to stand before you at this moment...... Kiss you.

Hathaway and I work in the Foreign Affairs Bureau, and prices in Bednar have risen a lot lately due to the fact that the situation is always unstable.

Don't think I'm a philistine, but the leather you sent me has made a big difference in our family.

The shop has become almost an important pillar of the Gophilo family's economy, and thank you for providing these skins in a steady stream.

The Gophilo family finally had a turnaround, and at least some laughter could occasionally be heard in the mansion that made people feel cold to the marrow.

In the morning, my father sent someone to tell me that he had time to go home and see him...... You don't know how long I've been waiting for this sentence!

I can't wait to cross the portal and run to the Bailin plane...... See you!

But now that the Bailin Plane Portal is under military control, the permit date for our pass is two months away.

Until I arrive at the White Forest Plane to see you, please take care of yourself.

Love you Beatrice. Gopphil. ’

——

Hathaway's letter reads:

——

'Hey, how are you doing in Bailin?'

I've heard that there may be a tide of beasts over there, and you hunt monsters every day.

Is that so?

Is life in Bailin very fulfilling and busy?

Now, the situation in Bena Province is not very good, Talapa Dare has become a battlefield, it has involved all the noble lords of Bena Province, the army has overwhelmed the border, many civilians of Talapa have taken refuge in Bena City, and some civilians are desperate to leave here.

Beatrice and I are at the Foreign Affairs Bureau, where we have a lot of letterheads to deal with every day, as well as those that apply for immigration.

The lords of the other provinces all wanted to get a piece of the pie in Bena.

I've also heard that Duke Newman is also planning to evacuate from Warsaw recently, and that the main force of the Bednar Legion is about to return home.

Beatrice and I joined the makeshift planning team, and recently discussed with the Ryan family a series of issues arising from the withdrawal, including the ownership of Handanar County, how the resources obtained were transported to Ewalson City through the portal, and now only the issue of Handanaar County resource conversion remains, and it is estimated that the Duke may have to lose a little money on this expedition.

When he returned, he must have felt even worse when he saw that some of the land in the north of Tabei had almost turned into a scorched earth.

My vacation with Beatrice was postponed for two months and I was looking forward to that day.

Then leave your job here and go see Bailin!

Hathaway. Luther wrote on April 17, 2587.
