Volume 1 Threesome Chapter 66 It's better to see each other than to miss each other
The sight of the two girls intersected, and the tacit understanding that had already been formed, so that Midi didn't need to say much. He just nodded lightly and strode out of the training ground.
In the hall of the Qiu Ancient City Villa, the generals and commanders had been waiting for a long time.
In the front row, there are elite henchmen like Butland, Klasty, Sigmund, and Lilian.
After that, there are the elders of the elven tribes, the generals of the territory defenders, the guards of the family castle, and the lords of the major cities in the territory.
Everyone gathered together, and the hall of the villa was completely occupied.
Feeling the expectant gaze of everyone, Midi slowly looked around with a calm gaze, cleared his throat, and finally spoke.
"The first order is that martial law will be imposed on the whole land, and the four thousand troops stationed on the border will immediately enter a state of battle, and anyone who tries to invade, regardless of their identity, whether they are human beings or monsters, will be killed. The remaining 3,000 main forces inspected the territory, and if they found a monster's lair, they would be killed, those who robbed by fire would be killed, and those who fanned the flames would be killed. Another thousand troops, stationed in the ancient city of Qiu, are ready to attack at any time. ”
The three "killings without mercy" caused the temperature of the entire hall to plummet by a few degrees, and everyone understood how much the true backbone of the Asrex family attached great importance to this fire that ignited outside the principality.
"Krasti. Midi spoke again.
"In. "The elven warrior who has been promoted to level 32 stands as straight as a javelin.
"Assemble the Nightblade Panther Cavalry, along with the rest of the elite, a total of two thousand men, and follow us to the Gran Forest. Midi said, casting her gaze behind her, meeting the gaze of the Bullet Queen and the Witch of the Mist, "First take out the elven compatriots of the five major tribes." ”
At the same time, there were not a few noble lords like Midi who took action.
After all, the territory is the foundation of a family, taxes, resources, talents, food, troops, and demon veins, so everything comes from the land itself. Unless he is a gentleman with no ambitions, it is impossible for a small baron, or a high-ranking marquis or duke, to stay in the castle and sit back and watch the turmoil of his territory under his nose.
There are not a few nobles who can predict the threat of the fire to their territory, however, there are very few lords who can really suppress the turmoil caused by the fire.
Because of this fire, the scope is just too big.
And the army of the Duchy of Belmar, which has been peaceful for a long time, is too small.
With this terrible fire, countless monsters with double levels rushed out of the forest, and behind them was a scorched earth, and if they retreated, they would only be burned or starved to death, so they rushed to kill.
The spirits of the dead woke up from their slumbering graveyards, peeled open the dirt that had covered the coffin for an unknown number of years, stretched out their wood-like arms to the sky, and opened their mouths without vocal cords, and cried out silently. Many cities are well defended, but they are directly attacked by the undead from the inside.
What's worse is that those inconspicuous low-level monsters that were originally scattered throughout the principality, such as goblins and cat demons, also have enough strength to compete with level 10 soldiers.
Maybe level 10 is nothing, however, the sheer number of these little monsters makes them the biggest stone on the heads of the nobles.
In contrast, after hundreds of years of peace, the lords did not have a large army at hand, not only in small numbers, but also in poor maintenance of equipment and training.
In addition, the army is not suitable for squad combat, and in the face of this situation of flowers everywhere and the need to fight fires everywhere, every general has his hair white overnight.
The soldiers had to break into countless squads and go to different places to fight, but the training they underwent meant that they could not compete with the adventurers who were good at fighting in squads for many years.
In addition, most of the soldiers are ordinary humans, without the assistance of ghosts and gods, they can't sense the rhythm of magic power, and they are not favored by the holy light, but with the long sword in their hands, it is quite difficult to deal with monsters with various new abilities.
There are even many places where the soldiers who sent out were even completely wiped out by monsters.
The entire Duchy of Belmar was in chaos.
The family with deep heritage showed the powerful strength they had accumulated over hundreds of years at this moment. Needless to say, the Hamilton family, which is under the command of the Iron and Blood Grand Duke, even the Seth family, which had only suffered a crushing defeat three months ago, showed unusual composure and calmness in the face of this catastrophe.
In addition, the marquises, which are second only to the Grand Duke, are also relatively much quieter.
In these territories that have been in operation for centuries, the original monsters have been almost wiped out, coupled with a complete military system, and at the same time, with sufficient financial resources to hire adventurers to replenish them, it is natural to be able to stand still.
It's just that among all the noble realms, the most surprising and even shocking one is an earldom.
Assrex Family Territory!
Being able to suppress the monster's attack is a skill, but it is not surprising, but the choice made by Midi is far beyond the imagination of the nobles.
He actually sent troops directly and entered the Gran Forest, where no one dared to enter!
Do you want to lure us into attacking and winning another battle?
The generals of the Seth family sneered and ordered the army to guard the border. After the annexation of the Joseph family, Asrex now borders on Seth, and I don't know what kind of moth that black-haired little beast will do in these turbulent times.
But keep your eyes open, lest you lose a few more mines!
Are there any special resources and treasures in that forest?
There are other nobles speculating, but based on years of experience, it doesn't look like anything. After all, it's just the edge of the Glen Forest, so what good can it be? Even if there were, it would have been looted by the Elven Kingdom hundreds of years ago.
In fact, Midi's purpose is very simple, which is to bring out all the members of the five elven tribes in the forest who have made a contract with him.
Although a lot of work has been done in the previous three months, the elves are the most stubborn, nostalgic race and the most reluctant to see change. The two thousand elven warriors had been impressed by Midi's courageous move, and the cunning elders had been overwhelmed by the benefits and supplies brought by the large number of transactions.
There are also many elves who can't stand the monotonous life in the forest, and resolutely take the initiative to come to the territory of the Asrex family, wanting to find their place in the active human society.
But there are still some elves who enjoy the benefits of the trade route with peace of mind, but they have no idea of wanting to change.
Midi does not reject such a view of life, not tossing, it is also an attitude towards life. It's just that when the fire broke out in the Gran Forest, he couldn't let these elves die there.
Fortunately, there were sufficient preparations in advance, and the magic veins in this forest of the Witch of the Mist were originally connected to the Qiu Ancient City Villa, and the changes in the area were well known to Midi. In addition, when the trade route was established, Midi also specially built a lot of fortifications along the way, with the help of such fortifications, plus two thousand elite troops who had been prepared in advance, it was not difficult to move the remaining elves out.
So, there is only one question left -
Is this forest itself going to be given up just like that?
Midi gave the decision to the original owner of the forest, the Witch of the Mist, Alice Otrobos.
The black-haired girl paced quietly in front of the witch's house where she had lived for many years, as if she were walking.
In recent months, she has rarely been here.
Many daily necessities and belongings, such as cellos, mirrors, wardrobes, and all kinds of black clothes and robes in the wardrobe, have also been moved to the Qiu Ancient City Villa before you know it.
It is indeed more suitable to live there, more abundant magic power, more complete defense, and all kinds of rare magic materials can be obtained, and there is no need to spend time on the elven elders, everything can be handed over to the special management personnel to take care of, Alice only needs to concentrate on the study of magic, and the mysterious ghosts and gods on Midi's body.
But at this moment, when looking at the tree house where she has lived for many years, Alice feels a kind of nostalgia that cannot be parted.
Although it is remote, she is very familiar with every plant and tree here. She had personally touched and touched the beasts around her. The white crow circle under his feet was still arranged little by little when he was studying magic before, and it has been perfected many times after that.
All the mechanisms in the tree hall are made by hand. The rare materials that were missing were all collected by Alice when she went out to collect them herself, and she had also experienced various dangers at that time, and faced powerful monsters that occupied resources, but Alice overcame them one by one, and she walked all the way to this day.
Now, do you want to give up, do you want to give up?
The black-haired girl, who had always had an indifferent expression, bit her lip at the moment, revealing a hesitation and struggle that could not be concealed.
Stay!
Midi's lips moved, and she couldn't help but want to say it.
In the previous life, Alice had been here for two whole years, until the Delos Empire turned its finger at the forest, and she finally chose to leave.
In this life, the conditions are sufficient, there is no need to give up like this!
Midi thought to himself, he didn't want to see his beloved in pain anymore.
However, just as Midi was about to step forward to say this to Alice, a small hand pressed his shoulder, stopping him from moving.
It's Fina's hand.
"Didn't you say that Alice would decide everything?" the red-haired girl glanced at Midi coldly, "Why do you want to go up there and join in the fun now?"
