"Do you have any commands, great Lord Cross?" asked Wendy.

"Wendy, I'll talk to them first, and I'll talk to you alone at the end. ”

"Yes. ”

"Randall, I need you to research recovery potions, potions that can restore physical strength in a short period of time. ”

"Lord Cross, is this recovery potion you mentioned similar to food?"

"Well, it can be understood this way first, the recovery potion is equivalent to food that is easy to carry, but it provides much faster physical recovery than food. ”

"This one is very simple, I once did such a study, and it only takes three days for me to make a bottle of recovery potion. ”

Hearing such an answer, Cross smiled.

The reason he asked Randall to make a recovery potion was simple, it was for the sake of war.

And when it comes to war, Cross has a different understanding.

Cross received a lot of education about warfare at the military academy of the Kersman Empire.

The core of this is food, that is, military rations, as long as a war is waged, military rations are indispensable, and without the supply of food, the army will be self-defeating. This is the most basic content in a military academy.

Cross's mentor has always taught him that he needs to have his own understanding of war, so Cross has long had his own views on this core food in the military.

In Cross's opinion, military rations are necessary, but military rations generally take up a lot of resources.

The storage of military rations requires the construction of granaries, the transportation of military rations requires horse-drawn wagons, and the deployment of a well-equipped army for the transportation and storage of military rations.

At the same time, the speed of the army's march will also be slowed down by the effect of military rations, and the reduction of the marching speed will cause many surprise tactics to be unsuccessful, which Cross does not want.

In his understanding, the speed of the march is the most important, even more so than the food.

"Blackwater One Night City" is the best embodiment of Cross's tactical core idea.

Coming down the river from the Blackwater River, the city was completed overnight, so Cross only ordered everyone in the battle to bring three days' worth of food.

However, he could not guarantee that the next wars would be the same as those of "Blackwater One Night City", and once the march distance was extended, the entire army would need more food for supplies.

But Cross didn't want to spend resources on military rations, so he asked Randall to research and make recovery potions.

Portable and space-consuming recovery potions are a better substitute for food.

Once the recovery potion can be put into actual combat, the power of Cross's army will be magnified several times over.

And, like trauma plasters, the amount of recovery potions used is definitely not small.

Alchemist Randall's reply surprised Cross a little, he didn't expect Randall to do similar research before, "Very good Randall, I'll come to you after you finish making the first recovery potion." ”

"Sir, do you want to test it yourself? It's better for someone else to do it. ”

Cross smiled, "You don't have to worry about this, you go back to the lab first, Randall." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. ”

After Randall left, Cross turned his gaze to Nia and the others, "Nia, Tina, and Charlie, the three of you are going to build a few rooms with me next." ”

None of them understood Cross's intentions, and of course Charlie didn't care, as a prisoner, he had no choice but to follow orders.

However, Nia and Tina have doubts, especially Tina.

"What about my experiments, Lord Cross?" asked Tina.

"Your experiment is suspended for a few days. ”

"But...... Why don't you let those people build houses?" Tina gestured to the people who were building the Stronghold.

"Tina, the construction of the Stronghold is more important, and their work cannot be stopped. The houses we're going to build are actually built by ourselves. ”

"Mistress Cross, what do you mean...... we will live together in the future!?" the clever Nia had sensed Close's intentions.

Cross nodded, "After yesterday's incident, I think it's better for us to both live in the barracks, on the one hand, it's safer, and on the other hand, we can take care of each other." ”

"Well, I'm in favor!" After hearing Clos's explanation, Nia immediately agreed, as Cross's bodyguard, she has the duty to protect Cross, and at the same time, she can have more time to meet with Close, which is also what Nia wants.

"Hmm...... Can I live with Nia?" Tina was convinced.

"Of course, we can do it, and Wendy needs to plan and design the specific house. Cross looked at Wendy, "Wendy, I'm going to trouble you again." ”

"It is an honor to work for you. And, I wish I could move in with you. ”

"And what about your old house?"

"It can be used as a temporary council hall, my Excellency. ”

Klosto chin nodded, "Hmm...... We really need a council hall. Let's do it, we'll plan and design the new house first, and then Wendy you'll still have to oversee the construction of the Stronghold.

As for the new house, I'll call in the werewolves to help, and with a few of us, it shouldn't take a few days to complete. ”

"Hmm. Nia smiled and agreed.

So, several people began to design a new house. At the same time, the warehouse originally planned to the north of the barracks was also removed from the plan.

After discussing with Wendy, Cross decided that the warehouse would be located in an underground city built by the Hoffers.

After explaining these things, Cross went to find the Raven Man Saiti, and last night's incident gave Cross a new understanding of Saiti's abilities.

Cross thought that Seti would just transform into a crow, but he didn't expect Seti to be able to command and control a flock of crows.

Cross was delighted by this ability of the Raven Set.

Because, once he can control and command the crow flock, Saiti is definitely not a simple scout, he can even send the crow to reconnoiter farther away.

What he wanted to talk to Seti alone about was the investigation.

Due to his injury last night, the Raven Man Seti was resting in Cross's house at this time, and when he saw Cross coming back, Seti greeted him respectfully, "Hello, Lord Cross. ”

"Thanks to you last night, Setty. ”

"That is my duty, my Excellency. ”

"Saiti, I want to expand your duties, can you send the crows to scout farther away?"

Seti thought for a moment and replied, "My Excellency, I can't control the place too far away, and now I can only send crows to Sunset City." ”
