If anyone really believes it, then Goodern is not without a way to deal with it.

As the holy daughter of the Holy Light Church and the heir to the next empress of the Heflos Kingdom, Anna, she is still in Qingyuan Town.

As long as she is allowed to show her face, this kind of nonsense rumor will naturally be self-defeating.

As for Anna's inability to help, Goodern wasn't worried.

This rumor will not last long before it will be dissolved, and although it will have some impact on recruiters, he does not care about this problem.

The current population of Qingyuan Town has been enough to digest for a while, and even if the conscription is affected, it doesn't matter.

As Roy continued to report, Goodern also had a general understanding of the surrounding situation.

With the arrival of winter, although there is no snow yet, it is only a matter of the past few days.

The surrounding towns were ready for winter and were affected by the war, with some leaving early to make a living in the safer part of the empire before the snow season arrived.

After all, war is not something they can control, and if they fight here, they will be the first to suffer.

"The work of intelligence gathering should continue to expand, especially to pay attention to the dynamics of the war, and apply if the funds are insufficient."

"Yes, young master." Roy nodded in understanding.

Although the establishment of the intelligence department was short, Master Gooden gave a lot of resources.

Not only are personnel selected directly from the military, but they can even receive a large amount of financial support.

It is precisely this kind of resource investment that allows him to quickly establish a set of intelligence collection system, whether it is using money or personally sending people to investigate, and the result is still quite satisfactory to the young master.

In particular, the branch analysis department under the Ministry of Intelligence, under the guidance of the young master, established a 'big data' system, and after massive data analysis, three personnel who were infiltrated by the original Charleson family were identified.

After winning the first battle, the young master's support for the intelligence department was further expanded.

After the debriefing, Roy withdrew from the study, while Gooden began to exercise his mind and arrange various hobbies.

The 17th day of the 10th month of the ephemeris.

As soon as he woke up, Gooden found that the entire Qingyuan Town had turned into a white world.

The snowfall came without conscription, and covered the entire town in one night.

Fortunately, at the very beginning, Goodern asked Kroger to arrange the treatment of the snow, and at the moment, there are special personnel on the streets to deal with the snow.

At the same time, on the city wall, there are also soldiers clearing the snow to prepare for the subsequent construction.

When I came to the balcony, the snow was still falling outside the window, but for the snow to be cleared, the maids in the castle had regular treatment, and there was not much snow left on the balcony.

As an authentic southerner, it is rare to see a large snow of this magnitude, and it is still very novel to see such a large amount of snow.

After the snow fell, Goodern, at Erin's urging, changed his clothes and went to the restaurant for dinner.

The snow in the north does not fall for a day or two, but for ten or even a month in a row.

It doesn't end until the entire area is turned into a white world.

Such a heavy snowfall has completely blocked the surrounding roads, making it difficult for people to travel.

And for Goodern, even if it snows, the development of Qingyuan Town cannot stop there.

After breakfast, he went out to inspect and see what had been done to deal with the problems caused by the snowfall.

The roads in the towns are cleared by special personnel, but there are no roads to the outside world.

To this end, a magic truck equipped with snow removal equipment began to circulate the roads to and from the various mines to ensure that the roads were clear.

……

Deep in the cave veins of the Yongshuang Mountains, two forces led by the orc leader Thousand Armies, Hadri and Gegil, are gathering to discuss.

"Battaya has put the rumors aside

It's unclear how effective it will be if he goes out, but it can cause a little trouble for Gooden, so that he will not be supported for at least a while."

Gegil, who sat on the side, relayed the news from Betaya to the people.

A night of heavy snow also indicates that their plan is about to begin, and now they have to gather all the information and determine the next direction.

"What about the inside of Qingyuan Town?" Hadri asked in a deep voice.

For this question, Gegil shook his head helplessly and said.

"Goodern didn't know what tricks he used, not only did he build a tall wall outside Qingyuan Town, but he also dug out all the spies who were lurking in."

"Now don't talk about spreading rumors, even if you send someone to investigate around Qingyuan Town, you will be caught if you are not careful, just for the reconnaissance mission, Betaya has lost seven or eight people, and no effective news has been transmitted so far."

"Waste." Hadrri snorted coldly and cursed in a low voice.

As for the curse of the son of the beastmaster, Gegil could only pretend not to hear it and continued.

"Not only that, there are at least thirty or forty spies I planted in Snow Valley Town, but after integrating into Qingyuan Town, they have lost contact one after another, and at first some news can be transmitted, but then the number of transmissions is becoming less and less."

"From the mouths of the surviving personnel, I learned that the other personnel were either arrested on the same day, or they were arrested when transmitting information, and they were all stolen goods, without a trace of wrongdoing, and at the same time, some time ago, the last three contacts also completely lost contact."

After hearing this, Hadrri did not speak, but silently stroked the hilt of the long sword at his waist.

It was a long time before Hadri spoke again.

"We need to figure out the situation in Qingyuan Town as soon as possible, especially the arrangement of the elemental leylines, the transcendent in Qingyuan Town who can find the inscription should also be aware of our existence."

"I don't know what the other party's right to speak in the Orrea Empire is, and whether it can attract the attention of the emperor, but with extraordinary connections, it is still very easy to pass on this news to the past."

"So next, we must prepare to fight the elemental leylines to the death, and win a breakthrough for our follow-up compatriots."

"Yes, Lord Governor."

The orcs who participated in the discussion in the venue responded one after another, but only Gegil and his party were silent without saying a word.

"Gegil, in this operation, your secret guards are also dispatched, but you don't need to participate in the battle, you just need to help collect intelligence, learn as much as possible about the situation in Qingyuan Town, and I will send a shaman to help you." It will also attract the attention of the orc army and provide you with opportunities."

"Okay." Gegil nodded, agreeing to Hadri's plan.

He had been in the army for many years, and immediately arranged the corresponding plans.

In less than half an hour, the plan was finalized and immediate implementation began.

In the afternoon of the same day, an orc army of 100 dark guards walked out of the cave veins and walked forward in the direction of Qingyuan Town.

In the evening, Goodern, who returned to the castle after his busy business, lay down in the bathtub and enjoyed the excitement of the hot water.

At the end of the day, he was almost running around in the snow outside, and his legs couldn't help but be frozen a little stiff because of his strength and magic resistance.

He didn't care about the snow season before, but now he can be regarded as appreciating the power of the heavy snow in the other world.

He's all like this, let alone the people below.

As a result, Gooden could only re-order today, and those who worked outside only needed to complete half a day's work.

In terms of salary, it is calculated at 70 per cent, and many personnel are happy to accept such an adjustment.

Of course, it's not impossible to continue to work overtime, but under this biting snow, few people can continue to work all day outside.

As for those who work in factories or indoors, Goodern has made no adjustments.

After all, these places have been fully installed with heating or thermal insulation equipment to maintain normal operation

Yes, there is no problem.

After a comfortable shower, Goodern returned to his study and began to read the two magic books that Morse had given him.

Although he can't actually operate it at present, it doesn't prevent him from learning and understanding in advance.

The complex and jerky structure of magic, as well as some inexplicable words, was extremely difficult for him to see.

Some of the words in the books are not written in the lingua franca of the Terrans, but are mixed with some ancient languages, as well as Elven languages, and even dragon languages.

According to Helissa's guidance, these darlings of nature, their language is inherently a power, and many spells have evolved according to their powers.

If you want to understand and learn, it is necessary to master their language.

And for a person who can't even learn English, mastering this more complex language can't help but make him head two.

If he hadn't automatically mastered the lingua franca when he crossed over, he would have been working hard to learn the language now.

Thinking of the entries of the Erin and Amy sisters, Gooden couldn't help but be a little envious, with his own learning bonus, why can't he brush this kind of entry?

Although the Heart of Legends also has some kind of influence, that blessing is too weak.

After sighing slightly in his heart, he continued to carefully read the magic book in his hand.

……

The next morning, the first thing Goodern did when he woke up from his sleep was to refresh himself.

Brush up on your entries in the morning, change them if they are suitable, and leave them for the people or items you want to sort in the afternoon if they are not suitable.

In this order, his daily work schedule for revising entries is full, and there is no time to waste at all.

Of course, this is limited to the number of modifications, and for the number of refreshes, each person, each item, has three refreshes per day.

Now that there is a huge Qingyuan Town, he can't run all the entries in one day.

And even if you can finish it, what about the next day? What about the third day?

Therefore, the current refresh, Gooden said that the refresh is casual, or the focus is on taking care of the refresh.

For example, the promotion of the army, the transformation of crops, the blessing of the field and even the modification of buildings, etc., and he has rarely made modifications to the refresh of items.

After all, a generation of items has a generational effect, and now that the development speed of Qingyuan Town has come up, it is really a waste to waste the number of modifications on the refresh of items.

As the refresh ends, three new entries appear.

Gooden glanced at it carefully, and then directly chose to refresh.

Three more garbage entries, and he was no stranger to this situation.

[Master Mechanic: Master all kinds of mechanical skills and unlock the basic mechanical knowledge (the primary level corresponds to mechanical engineering)]

[Boiling blood: Compared with the body temperature of ordinary people, your body temperature is higher, and you can resist the cold, even if you walk naked in the snow, you will not feel a trace of cold]

[Animal Friends: Able to win the favor of animals, and be able to sense the intentions of the other party, and have simple communication]

Oh hey, you're here for transshipment?

Looking at the new entry in front of him, Gooden's eyes lit up, the master of the machine, like the master of alchemy, gave him new knowledge and skills.

However, compared to the animal friends below, Goodern is still a little excited.

After all, who can refuse to communicate with an animal?

But after some thought, he chose the Master of Mechanic and gave up the term Animal Friend.

Although it is good to be able to communicate, it does not bring him much improvement, so he still chooses entries that can improve his strength.

Once you've made your selections, select Refresh for the third time.

But the result was not ideal, and today's sudden surprise still made him very satisfied.

Then get up and write down the entries that were refreshed today one by one and make a count.

More than half a month has passed since the last revision.

According to the entry 'shipment', it is almost possible to have a suitable entry in these two days.

After three months of exploration, Gooden probably learned a lot about this rule.

According to the rules of the game's gacha, his daily refresh is like a pool?

Yesterday had already completed the work of going out, and Gooden had no plans to go out today, so he went directly to the study to sort out and record the knowledge he had just acquired, and rewrite the course materials.

When it was almost noon, Els personally came to the study to deliver the news.

"Young Master, Team Hobert has sent back a second-level urgent letter."

Hearing the second-level urgent secret letter, Gooden immediately cheered up and took the letter from Els's hand.

The Hobart team, which has been out on reconnaissance for more than half a month, must have found something when they sent back a secret letter at this moment.

After opening MeSign and checking it, Goodwin frowned slightly.

The orc army, sure enough, began to be restless.

In the letter, Hobart recounted that during their daily reconnaissance, they found a large number of traces of orcs and humans mixed together, and they were moving in the direction of Qingyuan Town from the Yongshuang Mountains.

And judging from the number of footprints and traces, the number of people is the least, and they have passed in the last half a day.

For this orc force that suddenly revealed its tracks, Gooden didn't think that they took advantage of the heavy snow to come out for an 'outing', and must have planned to make some arrangements at this time.

After a moment's thought, Goodern immediately ordered.

"Notify all troops, enter combat readiness, stop all training, distribute live ammunition and prepare for combat."

"In addition, let the guards stationed at the guard tower be vigilant, be ready to evacuate at any time, and when the truck that clears the road returns, let them send news to the mine, enter the guard, and strengthen preparedness."

"Yes!"
