Chapter 40: News

In the lab, Sean processed the materials at a rapid pace, this was the last batch he had on hand, and the rest of the materials had already been made into potions and sold to the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce.

In the past three and a half months, he has made thousands of potions, most of which are strength potions for ordinary people, and although he is tired every day, he has brought Sean a profit of more than two thousand gold coins.

At the same time, because of diligent practice, at the end of the second month, Sean had already been promoted from level 6 to level 7, which was one step closer to the apprentice level.

"Knock-"

There was a sudden knock on the door, and Sean frowned, temporarily stopped what he was doing, and walked towards the door.

When he opened the door, he was greeted by Fryk's chubby face.

"The last batch of potions hasn't been finished yet, I'll send it to you when it's ready."

Sean thought that Frick had come to pick up the goods, and there was a slight impatience in his tone.

"No, big brother." Fryk smiled bitterly and said, "I sent you money, and the title deed of my Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce is still mortgaged by you, so why dare you delay." ”

It dawned on Sean.

Under Fryk's command before, Sean kept the potions for sale until Furick said that the price was almost at the top, and he asked Fryk to take someone from his house to remove the potions that had been refined one by one.

However, the situation has been tense recently, and the branch of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce does not have so much spare money for a while, and Fryk immediately made a decision and directly mortgaged the title deeds of the branch to Sean, and then quickly transported the potion to the headquarters, and asked the headquarters for a sum of money by the way.

The land deed was still in the box, and now that the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce had brought the money, it was just in time to return it to Fryck.

"Come in and sit down?"

Sean turned and walked inside the room, greeting Fryk.

Furyk nodded, and entered the house with a large box in his hand.

With a "bang", the box was put down, and Frick was not polite, and sat down on a chair in the living room, looking haggard.

Sean brought two cups of tea, placed one of them in front of Fryk, and sat down across from Fryk to savor it to himself.

"I said, big brother, are you still in the mood to drink tea?!"

Fryk pointed to the box and said a little weakly, "Two thousand two hundred and twenty-seven gold coins, why don't you check it?" ”

"Spiritual power sweeps over, the number is roughly correct, I don't like to count gold coins one by one like you." Sean glanced at Frick a little inexplicably, feeling that this guy was a little weird today.

Frick patted his head, and was speechless for a moment.

"Forget it, don't talk about this."

"I went back to the headquarters and learned a lot of inside information, and I have news to tell you."

"The war we guessed before is confirmed."

Fryk's face was solemn, and he leaned forward, his eyes fixed on Sean.

"And the specific situation of the war has also been revealed, the enemy is the Kingdom of Karis and the Kingdom of Connery, which are adjacent to the Kingdom of Wagner."

"In other words, once the war starts, we are here on the front line!"

Sean's hands shook, and the tea in his cup almost spilled.

"I seem to remember that the Connery Kingdom has 6 official ranks, and the Karis Kingdom has 1 master level and 8 official ranks, right?"

"The royal family of the Wagner kingdom is dead? At the same time with two countries that are stronger than themselves? ”

"Wait...... Fryk quickly interrupted Sean's speech, "I'm not done yet." ”

"Although our Wagner Kingdom is relatively weak, it also has allies."

"The Kingdom of Cardville and the Kingdom of Holland decided to intervene in this dispute in order to curb the annexation intentions of the Kingdom of Karis, and after consultation, the official and master levels of both sides agreed not to personally intervene in the war."

"And in terms of conventional forces, we are still superior to the Karis Kingdom and the Connery Kingdom, after all, there are three kingdoms on our side, and there are only two kingdoms on the other side."

"So what." Sean asked rhetorically, "Even if they can win, it will be after the decisive battle, if the Kingdom of Karis and Connery want to attack, then they can only launch a full-scale invasion of the Kingdom of Wagner by first capturing the province of Belloc and then breaking the victory barrier." ”

"In the big picture, this situation is good for the Wagner Kingdom, but for our province of Beloc, it is a complete disaster."

The topography of the Wagner Kingdom is somewhat unique, and the territory is mainly composed of two parts, one is the royal capital and the surrounding provinces, and the other is the province of Beroc.

The size of the royal capital and the surrounding provinces is more than 2 million square kilometers, while the province of Beloc is only more than 60 square kilometers, and there is a pass called Shengli Pass between the two.

The Kingdom of Karis is located in the southeast of the Kingdom of Wagner, only adjacent to the province of Bellok, if you want to attack, there are only two options, one is to borrow from the Kingdom of Cardville in the west, and the other is to annex the province of Belloc and storm the victory pass.

However, the Kingdom of Cardville has joined the camp of the Kingdom of Wagner, and the first option is no longer possible, so their only option is the second option.

Although the Konnery Kingdom is located in the east of the Wagner Kingdom, the army is blocked by layers of mountains, not only can not allow the Karis Kingdom to attack, but can only join forces with the Karis Kingdom to break the victory barrier together.

In other words, the province of Belloc, where the city of Lane is located, will meet the attack of millions of soldiers from the two kingdoms, and in this situation, if the royal family of the Wagner Kingdom is not stupid, they will directly abandon this place, gather troops at Victory Pass and wait for the attack of the coalition army, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack.

Faced with this situation, Sean's only thought was to run away.

"yes."

Fryk said with a serious expression, "Once the war starts, it won't take long for the province of Belloc to fall, and now the specific time of the war is still uncertain, and the distribution of interests may not have been negotiated above, if it really starts, then we won't be able to run." ”

"I'm here just to see if you have any ideas."

"Me? I'm just an apprentice-level mage, what else can I do? Sean's face was also a little unsightly, "Can I go over there at Victory Pass?" ”

"There's a high probability that you won't be able to leave." Frick shook his head, "Because the news has gradually come out, and the victory pass has also begun to restrict entry and exit, it is difficult to want to go over without a little relationship." ”

"So I want to give you a suggestion, that is, leave the Wagner Kingdom and cross the border directly into the territory of the Karis Kingdom, they are the one who takes the initiative to start the war, and there is a high probability that the mainland will not be attacked, and the security is guaranteed to a certain extent."

"As a professional, you will be welcomed by the nobles wherever you are, and there is no need to be confined to this small place in the Wagner Kingdom."
