Chapter 30: Return to the Wasteland
The hillbilly Augustus will never think that the little princess Constantine is cute again, and then look at Sophia, it is difficult for Augustus to maintain his calm expression, who dares to say that this good friend of Mass, the seventh heir to the throne of the Imperial Scrooge, is a loser, Augustus is the first to resolutely disagree, and then hesitated, Augustus finally did not insist on his 10 magicians, originally, there are 300 regular knights, 5 under the fourth law' Redemption' is already Augustus's psychological expectation, and now there are 200 more regular knights than expected, how can Augustus not be satisfied, yes, maybe in some ways Augustus is indeed a greedy hillbilly, but his greed will be firmly within his sanity after all.

He talks to Sophia about the final details.
Augustus proposed that he should have the absolute leadership transfer power of the Knights of the Cathars, which also did not seem to surprise Sophia, after a brief consideration, Sophia nodded, Mass will only appoint a temporary knight deputy leader, whether he has the ability to fight for absolute leadership is his own business, which makes Augustus feel that talking to this unlovely little princess of Constantine, Talking about conditions is really much more comfortable than talking to the nobles of the wasteland, except for a little miserly who can be completely accepted, this cold and arrogant little princess of Constantine can be regarded as a kind young lady who is very good to talk to.
It was a pity that Augustus, who thought this way, did not notice the fleeting cunning in Sophia's eyes.
And finally there are 4' The dominance of the magicians of the redemption system, to Augustus's surprise, this request that seemed to him to be the most reasonable, but was rejected by Sophia without hesitation, and no matter how Augustus hinted that it was impossible for these 4 magicians to act alone in the wasteland, if there was no unified command from him, the magicians were likely to be lost in the wasteland and other dangers, Sophia just resolutely did not change her words, until later, maybe she was impatient to argue with Augustus again, Sophia said expressionlessly, these 4 magicians must be under my direct leadership。
Augustus suddenly realized, and then he understood why Sophia said that there were 5 before, and later changed her words to only 4 magicians, and it turned out that she was the last one.
Of course, Sophia, who is amazingly talented in the fourth law, definitely has this qualification from any point of view, and Augustus can't deny it, but considering the chaos and danger in the wasteland when the lich invades, Augustus still tries to stop Sophia's plan, but Sophia's abnormal stubbornness makes Augustus finally have to accept it.
Then looking at the little princess Constantine with an indifferent expression, as if he had suddenly figured out Sophia's stubbornness, Augustus suddenly lost his smile.
With an indifferent expression, he said, "The wasteland welcomes Her Highness Sophia's tour. ”
Sophia frowned slightly, after talking for so long, she was used to the smile and calmness of this hillbilly, and his sudden coldness at this time was really a little unaccustomed.
But so what? Sophia didn't think she needed to waste her time thinking about why this hillbilly was suddenly cold.
She just finished the Mass and gave her the things, and she would never stay in this strange manor again, got up, the black tea poured by the servant on the table, she still did not move, walked straight to the red carpet outside the door, she turned around and left a sentence: "The Knights will be deployed tonight, and I will try to make these 500 people parachute into Alfred's territory as much as you requested, without alarming the others." And he departed alone.
In front of the living room door.
It took a long time to prepare all kinds of delicate snacks, and Baron Obilla had just taken the servant to the door of the living room, when he saw Miss Sophia walking out as if he was going to leave, and he hurriedly gave himself the courage to self-hypnotize just like when he was waiting for a snack, just a snack, just a delicious snack, and after a long time, he finally had enough courage to lift his fat face that was flushed, and wanted to give Miss Sophia a snack.
But when he looked up, he saw Sophia's carriage whipping away.
Obila was extremely frustrated, what a good opportunity was gone, he turned around, looked at Augustus, and smiled hard: "Tea time." ”
......
Augustus decided to return to the moor that afternoon.
At that time, Augustus would try to arrange his time on the train at night whenever he was on a business trip, so as not to delay his rest, and then to save time, and to arrive at his destination when he opened his eyes, killing two birds with one stone. Therefore, in connection with the great migration of the nobles in the wasteland, Augustus calculated that it would take at least four days from the Imperial Ferry City to his Alfred domain, so he ordered the old butler and Katieani to hurry overnight, and at the same time gently and tactfully refused Baron Obirah's repeated retention, and before the night covered the land, Augustus sat back in the carriage.
Baron Obilla was relieved to see his young Alfred at the helm leave.
Unfortunately, he did not have the opportunity to see Augustus's complicated eyes as he looked at him from the carriage, nor did he have the opportunity to hear Augustus's regretful sigh for Elizabeth at that time.
"If Obilla doesn't have Alfred's core secrets, I think he deserves to be forgiven, but it's a pity. ”
The carriage passes through the city of Ferry.
Coming to bid farewell to the prosperous and civilized hinterland of the empire and returning to the barren and cold abandoned wasteland, Augustus will inevitably have some chaotic thoughts, including his helplessness in the current wasteland environment, as well as his yearning for the imperial civilization. Or the possibility of taking his Alfred to the pinnacle of the empire, this is not to say that Augustus has no ambitions, but Augustus knows very well that with his current strength and ability, thinking too much is to find death.
Therefore, Augustus is more willing to focus more on how to manage Alfred, so that Alfred can completely control his own destiny in the wasteland.
In the early hours of the next morning, the carriage arrived at the Grand Canyon of the Alps.
At the entrance to the gorge, after meeting with the knights who had been left behind by Katieenny to receive them in the wasteland, Augustus gave the first order to all the nobles and lords of his realm for the first time as Alfred's helmsman.
He told the knights to rush back to Alfred's territory as quickly as possible, informing the lords of each town that they must open their warehouses to the maximum extent without restrictions, and provide food unconditionally to all civilians passing through the territory, so as to ensure that no civilians starve to death on the road, and second, after the lords have distributed the food, they must rush to Alfred's castle in time, and before the Lich invades, Alfred has a final internal meeting.
