409. Worried Lili
The defense plan that Rand said at lunch made Lili a little uneasy, and the girls were discussing privately whether Rant, who had become an earl and a high-level mage, only needed to sit in Night Qicheng City, or the least to command the battle in the rear of the front line, but he didn't expect Rand to decide to directly lead his troops out of the plains, such a pure barbarian behavior would only completely anger the orc tribe and attract a greater attack from the opponent.
Lili tried to persuade Rand, but when she walked to the meditation room, she found that Gleia, Cardinal, Wendy, Firefly, and even Huck and Albert had arrived, and the meditation room of hundreds of square meters seemed to be full.
"Rand, why don't you think about it? The last time humans entered the Hindukr was more than 1,000 years ago, when His Majesty the Emperor personally brought the army over, and he didn't get a bargain? Huck said worriedly.
"Yes, if we attack the orc hinterland, it will only bring the whole war out of control!" Albert was also persuading.
"Father, uncle, let me ask you, is the Northwest County a territory that prepares for war against the barbarians? However, after the Grey Goose tribe attacked and invaded last year, did the entire kingdom mobilize to declare war or was it ready to give some money to settle the matter? As soon as Lante's words came out, the two elders didn't know what to say, "First of all, I'm not going to fight with them in an upright way, I'm just going to attack and disturb, where I fight weakly, I will rob wherever there is a mine, and I also have to tell the orcs, dare to fight with me, there will be no one or two hundred years in the future, don't want to stop." ”
"Anyway, my city is guarded by the Dragon Knights, and at noon, they are very clear, they are willing to assist in the defense, and the three of them can pull legends from the royal capital, the imperial capital, and the holy city to help defend it, but what is the price? In the future, I won't forget what I said in Yeqi City, maybe I will have to give up the palace to others. "The Dragon Knights are so eye-catching, in addition to their powerful mounts, excellent knights, and excellent equipment, but more importantly, they can shake people at any time.
But there is a cost for people to fight and shake people, and with Rand's family background, he can't afford to pay at all, so he can only compensate for it with the control of Night Qi City.
"Rand, it's not that bad, is it?" Gulya wanted to comfort Rand, "The mobilization of the orc tribe is very slow, and there are often cases in history when the mobilization is completed and temporarily disbanded due to insufficient supplies. ”
"I can't rely on my opponent to make a mistake." Rand looked at Gureya and the girls, "Don't worry, no matter who took over Night Qicheng City, they don't dare to squeeze me away now, and whoever controls the hive for them when I leave." ”
Huck and his brother glanced at each other, and realized that they had long since failed to persuade Rand, so they could only care a few words, and walked away silently.
"Rand, you go to the orc hinterland, you won't leave us behind, right?" Wendy's idea was simple, she was going with Rand.
"We still have a lot of orders for magic bottles, can you complete the order first?"
Now with large-scale demonic stamping equipment, even demonic armor can be quickly made, but the process requirements of the demonic bottle can only be made by the two great goblins of earth and fire, Wendy and others, and because of this, the demonic breeding tank and the demonic bottle are completely the hardest products in the territory, and now there are many families who have sent orders.
The girls also understood that the more magic vessels they made now, the more financially rich the territory would be, and the more durable the war against the orcs would be, so Wendy didn't say anything more and turned around and went to the ruins.
"Lili, wait a minute" Rand looked at the girl in front of him and stopped her.
"My lord? Are you looking for me? Lili was always a little scared in the face of Rant, according to her understanding of the dream, Rand must have known about her father's existence, but he never broke it.
"Yes, Sophia recently told me that there are nightmares in the castle, this kind of demon is usually not low-level, and it is the most harmful to high-level mages" When the "nightmare" was mentioned, Lili's pupils were obviously widened, and Rand naturally understood in his heart, and then took out a small black ball, "I asked Lord Saranir to draw some psychic magic pattern circles in the castle, which should reduce the invasion of nightmares, but you are especially attracted to these things, so I asked Your Excellency to make this for you." ”
Lili took the ball, and felt the heat transmitted in the palm of her hand, the magic patterns on the ball were not complicated, but they were very fine, far from the level that the girls could reach.
"My lord, is this talisman really for me?" As a psychic mage, Lili was very fond of such a small ball, and was even a little shocked by Rand's generosity, "What is this black one?" ”
"The core of a magister-level nightmare," Rand said with a smile, but he felt the body of the girl opposite tremble for a moment, "The day before yesterday, there was a nightmare that invaded the castle and was suppressed, and that's what Your Excellency did with its core." ”
As a legend, Saranir was embarrassed to ask for Rand's things, so he simply used the nightmare core handed over by Faneuil to make a talisman, and Rand even changed it.
"This talisman is really powerful!" Although when she first heard that it was the core of the nightmare, Lili subconsciously thought it was her father's remains, and she almost couldn't hold it steadily, but the moment she wore it, Lili obviously felt that her strength had increased.
Lili, who was wearing the amulet, obviously had a hint of depth in her eyes, as if her understanding of the dream had progressed in an instant, she hurriedly thanked her, and went out to test her strength.
Looking at the girl's back as she left, the corners of Rant's mouth slanted into a satisfied smile.
……
As the end of the month approached, several members of the nobles of the royal capital came to the Night Qi City and began to repair and sort out the ruins of the buildings belonging to the dragon nobles, and several large families in the imperial capital also applied to enter. A few blocks around the palace are gradually gaining popularity.
However, more than 80% of the area of Night Kir City is still in ruins, and Tenya and Terisa and Elsa, who have just returned, have begun to build some low walls on the periphery of the uninhabited block to separate the different areas.
At night, the city finally had a light and the knights of the academy began to patrol, such as the current Uffy and Fredek Landarin.
With residents from outside the Night Qi City, there is naturally pressure on law and order, especially some orcs and assassins who can't get along in the royal capital, and they will sneak in and lurk from time to time.
In this way, the knight apprentices in the hive have jobs, and they can earn corresponding points for assisting in patrolling the streets of the city, and if they can find assassins, thieves, or even arrest and kill, they can earn a lot of points.
