Great Nobleman

"To the northwest, go to two teams for support."

Walking at the forefront of the team, he watched the blue signal arrow rising into the sky in the northwest direction.

While leading the rear team to move forward, Yersin also methodically gave support orders to the family knights.

It was now the afternoon of the second day of their departure from Chelsea.

Yesterday's journey was uneventful.

However, since this morning, the scouts have often found traces of orcs.

——This is the fourth time the scouts have sent out a request for support today.

Because of the strength of his own team, Yersin actually didn't pay attention to these sporadic orcs who crossed the border.

——Under the scouts' scouting, the orcs couldn't even get close.

At most, it would destroy the road ahead of them and delay their progress.

But with so many mages present, it is easy to repair the road, or even use magic to build a brand new road.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned.

The lords in the border areas will probably have more headaches.

Even if the strength of those orcs is not too strong, there are not many of them.

But it's okay to harass and harass civilians.

After speaking this question, Andy shrugged and said:

"Although the territory here has many disadvantages, it also has advantages, isn't it?

After the pioneering war, the border moved northward, and there would be extremely rapid commercial development here.

At that time, there will inevitably be a steady stream of teams passing by from south to north, heading to the northern region to build new territories.

Many of the resources needed by those new territories may be obtained from them.

And if we really touch the Endless Sea, there will even be a steady stream of caravans here.

As the northernmost existing lord on the commercial road, just thinking about it, they will reap huge profits! "

Hearing this, Yersin nodded with a smile and said, "You're right, they should have had similar considerations when they chose the territory here."

After skipping this topic, Yersin said curiously:

"According to the original plan, we will arrive at the material warehouse this evening.

After storing the materials, you will head towards the military fortress in the border area tomorrow. What are your plans for the future? "

Hearing Yersin's inquiry, Andy smiled and said:

"At that time, I plan to check the situation first, and then go to fight with the Mesa family's legion. How do you arrange it?"

Yersin smiled and said, "I heard that the elders are planning to go deep into the orc land, so I plan to join the Knights of the Holland family, and I will act with the elders when the time comes,"

Hearing this, Andy said with some regrets:

"It's a pity that I'm not strong enough to join the family's mage group. Otherwise, I want to follow."

Yersin comforted:

"In fact, it's good to stay near the border. Killing the orcs who cross the border is a meritorious service. There is no such benefit in running to the orcs."

Andy shook his head and said, "With my strength, I can't beat a few orcs. I'd rather watch others fight."

After chatting with Andy for a while, the knight team sent by Yersin returned.

The leading captain reported to Yersin: "The five wild boars have all been killed."

Yersin smiled and nodded, "It's hard work, let's go back to the team."

...

In the evening, I noticed that the carriage slowed down.

Brand put down the manuscript paper in his hand and stretched himself.

In the past two days, Brand has been thinking with Catherine, how to turn the knight secret skill of the incarnation of the wind king into the "magic group secret skill" of the library mage group.

However, Brand, who is a mage, doesn't know much about the various properties of life fighting spirit, and Catherine, who is a knight, doesn't know much about the magic power of mages.

Therefore, the progress of research on this topic is relatively slow, and it is still in a relatively early stage.

At this time, looking at the scenery outside the window, Catherine said to Brand:

"Master, we have arrived at Cedar Castle."

Hearing this, Brand stood up and walked out of the carriage.

Although the outside is full of snow and ice, the cold wind is blowing.

But the moment he got out of the carriage, Brand didn't feel the cold at all.

——The resident legion spells of the two mage groups, Claude and Chesil, keep them warm at all times.

Look to the front of the team.

A broad and tall city wall came into view.

At first glance it looked like the walls of a large city.

But this is actually a large military castle dedicated to storing supplies.

——One of the large material warehouses in the northern part of the Kaya Empire, Cedar Fort.

During the pioneering war, all kinds of military supplies of the Kaya Empire would be transported north from a large material warehouse like Cedar Fort, all the way to the front line of the war.

And now at this point in time, the imperial family and various nobles are transporting war materials to these large material warehouses, gradually filling them up.

After passing through layers of spell monitoring, under the watchful eyes of the strict guards, the team passed through the gate of the castle and entered the interior of Cedar Castle.

The first thing that catches the eye is one tower after another.

From time to time, an aura of magic flickered on the top of the tower.

Simply feeling the elemental breath of Cedar Castle's regular operation will know that those towers should be related to Cedar Castle's detection circle.

They should serve to identify persons.

Those towers should have sounded an early warning if an unknown person appeared inside Cedar Fort.

As for whether there are other functions such as attack, Brand is not very clear.

After entering Cedar Fort, several elders went to deal with matters related to material storage.

Brand and others went all the way to an open space in the castle and began to set up camp.

While the servants were preparing dinner, several seniors from the library gathered towards Brand.

——They want to inform Brand about the optimization progress of the new mage group framework.

This is already a common thing these days. The optimization of the framework of the new mage group that added life fighting spirit was handed over by Brand to a group of seniors in the library.

In the past few days, the optimization of the framework of the mage group is steadily advancing, and every day these seniors will explain to him the progress of the optimization of the new mage group framework.

Based on the current optimization situation, both the consumption and the complexity of the magic structure have been reduced by more than one level.

However, because there is still a lot of room for optimization, Brand and everyone in the library have not conducted experiments. Instead, they are preparing to conduct actual experiments when the framework of the mage group has been optimized to a certain level and cannot be further optimized in a short period of time.

"It shouldn't be long. According to our estimate, the short-term optimization work will be completed in two days at most. At that time, we can spare time to help the juniors and Catherine study the 'Mage Group Secret Technique'. .”

Speaking of this, Brand shook his head and said:

"Take it easy. I'm still learning about the nature of fighting spirit with Catherine these days. I feel like this should be a big project."
