Lord of Hyranza

People in Dake Valley have long been accustomed to this kind of morning exercise. Even many businessmen took the opportunity to call out their servants. The soldiers in the barracks are all up and doing morning exercises. There is no reason for you to continue to sleep in.

Groups of sleepy-eyed reinforcement infantry soldiers climbed out of the tents and stood in the camp with only their shirts on. They looked curiously at the heavily armored infantry soldiers of the West Route Army, who were wearing heavy armor and carrying heavy backpacks, surrounding the camp. They kept running laps, and then sat in a row on the side of the runway, talking and laughing while watching the show.

Someone even fetched a basin of water from the sink, and after washing their face, carefully shaved their sideburns with a dagger...

"Aren't they stupid for getting up and running so early..." The voice of the one who spoke was not loud, but it was definitely not too low.

Although he did not speak directly to the infantry soldiers of the West Route Army, he was extremely aggressive.

The infantry phalanx of the West Route Army passing by immediately experienced some fluctuations, and some running soldiers lost their pace because of this.

"Pay attention to the running rhythm, do you still want to have breakfast! Don't implicate everyone and get punished together!" The squad leader of the infantry phalanx shouted in a hoarse voice.

The chaotic sounds in the infantry phalanx disappeared immediately, and groups passed by the runway on the edge of the camp.

Seeing that no one in the infantry phalanx of the West Route Army dared to stand up and fight back, the infantry soldiers who reinforced the army probably felt that their dreams had been disturbed, and the taunts became louder.

"Probably because they don't have horses for transportation!"

"It's true, I really didn't see where their stables are."

"The price of a high-quality ancient Bolai war horse in the market is at least twenty gold coins. I guess their lords can't spend that much money to buy horses."

As soon as this sentence was uttered, the infantry soldiers in the phalanx all looked in the direction of the sound, but they didn't stop because of it...

Feeling that the atmosphere at the scene was a little tense, someone immediately comforted him: "When you are joking, don't speak so loudly, be careful not to be overheard."

The infantry soldiers of the reinforcements stood and ran to the side to watch for a while, and found that they could only eat ashes standing here, and the people who lost interest soon dispersed.

After the morning jog, breakfast is open in the cafeteria.

There are a total of fifteen dining halls in the West Route Army barracks, but even so, it is impossible to provide breakfast to 14 infantry soldiers at the same time. All infantry regiments here have a fixed time to eat in the dining halls. Each infantry regiment There is a window for receiving meals, and there is only 10 minutes for receiving meals, which is just enough to line up to get breakfast out.

For a period of time, almost all the same infantry regiment lined up at the same window to receive meals.

This made the dining hall look very orderly. The infantry soldiers lined up neatly, and almost no one whispered to each other.

Those who have received their meal can eat at the long row of tables outside the dining hall. Of course, some people choose to stand in front of the merit redemption list with porridge.

As the number of the West Route Army continues to expand, and the Constructed Knights and Ant Cavalry have just returned to the camp with a lot of merit, the merit exchange list has been updating rewards almost every day recently.

As the dining hall became lively, the infantry soldiers of the reinforcements were also hungry.

In the past, these lords made their own fires to cook. Usually, a small team would set up a simple earthen stove, and then hang up a small black lacquered cooking pot to cook porridge or boil water with dry wheat cakes. eat together.

Because the lord army in the form of an alliance goes out, the materials and supplies are the responsibility of the lords, so each infantry soldier brings his own rations, and even the weapons, armor, and horses are owned by the lords, and the spoils obtained on the battlefield It is also the lord's army that takes the lead, which is completely different from that of the West Route Army.

The infantry soldiers of these reinforcements saw that there was a large dining hall in the barracks, and that the infantry soldiers of the West Route Army who had just finished their morning exercises were all lined up to have breakfast, so they began to discuss:

"It seems that dinner is ready, should we go too..."

"Didn't you see that they went to eat in batches? Should we ask the order of our group's meals..."

Everyone started to talk and discuss. At this time, some captains got up from the tents, and everyone urged the captains in the regiment to ask.

They didn't want to participate in the morning exercise, but they didn't want to be left behind when they had dinner.

The captains of the various infantry regiments beat out the door of the nearest big dining hall and began to ask the porridge cook when it was their turn to eat. The news they got made the captains a little unacceptable.

"No……?"

A captain of the Second Infantry Regiment of Lord Nelson's Army asked in surprise, "We had a sumptuous dinner with you last night!"

The cook impatiently pointed to a person in charge at the entrance of the dining hall, signaling to ask there. He is not responsible for explaining these things.

Several captains ran to inquire, and the chief of the dining hall replied: "Yesterday was the welcome ceremony, and your supplies were allocated by Handanal City alone, so from today onwards, you will be responsible for your own daily food supply." ..."

"...Unless your lord reaches an agreement with Lord Suldak, the commander of our West Route Army, and we provide you with breakfast, your infantry soldiers can eat here!"

A group of captains were sent out by the responsible officer with a few words, and then reported to the heads of the infantry regiments, and the matter was then passed on to Marquis Valentine Heller.

Unexpectedly, the stubborn Marquis Heller had no intention of negotiating with Suldak. He waved his hand and ordered: "Each infantry regiment will build their own earthen stoves and solve the meal problem by themselves!"

In fact, these infantry regiments have always come here like this, but there is no harm if there is no comparison. Why can they have a hot morning after training, and my own infantry regiment wakes up and has to pick up firewood. Cook porridge, if you want to have breakfast like this, I'm afraid it will be noon...

Immediately, some infantry fighters began to complain in private.

……

A courier led the horse and left the valley before the morning mist cleared. He had a letter from Lord Heller in his arms.

The rest of the reinforcements stationed at the foot of Moyunling Mountain will arrive at the camp in the Dak Valley within half a month. There are currently [-] heavy armored infantry soldiers on standby in the fortress at the foot of the mountain. Marquis Heller intends to send All hoplites were mobilized to the Dak Valley.

It is estimated that when this side is ready, there should also be news from Marquis Jeffrey, who constructed the Swordsman Corps, that the army will immediately rush to the Moyunling Highlands and begin to occupy a large area of ​​territory.

During this period, the forage needed by the tens of thousands of war horses in the valley will be continuously supplied from the large meadow by the logistics group.

Although the long supply line has brought a heavy burden to the lords, but this is the end, these noble lords of Handanar County gritted their teeth and persevered.

Last fall, the Duke of Newman dispatched 20 reinforcements from the province of Bena for the last time. The lords in the city of Handanal did not say that they would send their lords to the battlefield, but now they are scrambling to send The army is coming.

It is to be able to enter the Moyunling Highland in advance to occupy the territory under the leadership of Marquis Heller.

That's right!

The heavy armored infantry regiment of the reinforcements entered the Moyunling Highlands only to occupy some unoccupied territories. As for attacking the ghost camp, the lords in Handanal City did not have this idea...

Of course, Suldak knew about these situations.

He stood on the city wall and watched the rising sun, and the morning fog in the entire valley began to dissipate quickly.

The half-elf archer was holding a sky-strike bow and connected with Jiu-Jitsu at the top of the city. Suldak felt that she was the most beautiful when she was wearing the salamander leather armor. Obviously, after becoming a second-rank powerhouse, Samira was also looking for a way to break through. road.

At this time, Marquis Waters Caesar walked up the stone steps.

The Marquis came before him, and immediately said to Suldak straight to the point:

"Master Earl Suldak, the lords of Handanar County are willing to take out gold coins to buy the Black Magic Crystal. This time, it can be regarded as entrusting me to take full responsibility for talking with you. No matter what the current situation is, we can actually sit down Come down and make a deal"

Suldak looked at Marquis Caesar, turned around and leaned on the wall with both hands and said:

"Are you talking about a deal? Okay! Unidentified magic spar is [-] gold coins. You can negotiate as much as you want. The larger the amount, the more expensive the unit price. If the quantity you buy is too small, please go to the black market in Handanal County. Buy."

"Now the adventure group can also buy the Black Magic Crystal, and I don't want to repeat the specific price."

"Why do the more you buy, the higher the price?" Marquis Caesar asked in puzzlement.

Suldak replied with a smile:

"There are only so many achievements, which means that there are only so many opportunities for promotion. This is Handanar County. If you want to buy a black magic crystal, you can still buy it. You also know that I am from Tarapagan in the Bena province. In this small place, there are a lot of noble barons full of gold in our cellars. Everyone needs the black magic crystal. Now there is a thick stack of orders sent to me. You know, everyone is in a noble In the circle, many things are not easy to refuse."

"I only have so many unidentified black magic crystals in my hand. Whoever takes more will inevitably take less."

"So the more you buy in a single batch, the higher the unit price..."

Chapter 1532 Black Magic Crystal

The smile on Marquis Waters Caesar's face was a little stiff, and there was a hint of suspicion in his eyes, like a fox trying to hide in the shadows.

He may feel that Suldak is asking for a lot of money. On the black market in Handanar City, the market price of unidentified black magic crystals flowing out of those adventure groups is about [-] gold coins, which is the price of ordinary black magic crystals. Twice as much as crystals, that is to say, each of these unidentified black magic crystals is worth nine gold coins.

For an ordinary family of three in the Green Empire, the merit value of such a black magic crystal can allow them to live comfortably in Bena City for two years.

Noble lords who purchased unappraisaled black magic crystals could exchange for achievements at the military supplies logistics office in the central cities of each province. When the merit value reached a certain level, their titles could be promoted.

On the contrary, if such plane wars broke out frequently, noble lords need to take the initiative to participate in the war, which is also the way to gain merit.

If a certain nobleman fails to obtain the corresponding merit for several consecutive years, then in terms of title inheritance, when it is passed on to his heirs, he will be downgraded accordingly, just like when Miss Hoyle inherited the title, she was downgraded to viscount because of her lack of merit. .

Marquis Caesar's ageless face put away his smile, and without even saying a word, he turned around and walked towards the steps of the city wall.

Suldak didn't say anything else, but squatted beside Samira and took a lunge, then picked up the golden shield with his right hand.

Swing the shield and draw the sword.

This is the basic movement of the shield warrior during normal training. As long as he has time, he will practice every day regardless of the weather.

Marquis Caesar walked up to the steps of the city wall, looked back at Suldak unwillingly, hesitated for a moment before deciding to walk back, with an expression of 'you won' on his face.

"At the price of twenty gold coins, how many black magic crystals can I exchange at a time?" Marquis Caesar asked.

In his opinion, although he condescended to ask back, although he lost the dignity of a marquis, it was still worth it in the face of interests.

"You and I negotiated for the first time, and I offered you a very reasonable price, but you chose to give up the purchase. Now you are the second time to propose to me the intention to buy the Black Magic Crystal, so this time there will be no more The first purchase is discounted, and now each unidentified black magic crystal is priced at 23 gold coins, do you still want it?"

Suldak stood up straight again, holding the sword and shield in his hand, and asked Marquis Caesar.

"..."

Marquis Caesar wanted to yell at Suldak, 'You are such a dog...', he used his fist to cover his lips, and coughed to stop his urge to curse.

Since he inherited the title from his father, he has seldom had such uncontrollable emotions.

'yes!Do I want more?Of course!Isn't that the only purpose of my coming here? '

Marquis Caesar closed his eyes and said silently in his heart.

It's just that the price is much higher than what he expected, it's simply outrageously high. If the Black Magic Crystal is really bought back at such a high price, no nobleman will entrust him to buy this kind of product in the future. .

So Marquis Caesar knew that the price was not feasible, but this time he left without turning around, because once he turned around and left this time, the deal with the Black Magic Crystal might be considered a complete blowout.

Looking at the young commander in front of him, who was full of a strong sacred atmosphere, and a rising star among the noble lords of the Bena Province, Marquis Caesar knew that his identity would not play any role in this transaction, on the contrary it was He came with the reinforcements, and served as the logistics officer in the reinforcements, which actually disgusted the young commander.

But he has the confidence to say so...

As a commander of the West Route Army with an army of 10,000+, I am afraid that there will not be too many people in the entire Bena province who are willing to give in.

Marquis Caesar opened his eyes only three seconds later, then his eyes fell on Suldak again, and asked him:

"What if I choose resource exchange?"

Suldak still said calmly: "That depends on the resources..."

Marquis Nishizawa did not hold back this time, and said directly: "Horse! Gu Bo is here to fight the horse!"

Suldak laughed when he heard Marquis Caesar's words, as if he saw a happy sitcom in the theater. After a while, he put away his smile and said to Marquis Caesar:

"To tell you the truth, what I need the most right now... may be Gu Bolai's war horse!"

The deal with the Black Magic Crystal fell through in the end, and Marquis Waters Caesar left very unwillingly.

He thinks there must be something to discuss about this deal, but the two parties have not been able to find that balance point.

There are many reasons for this, the biggest reason may be that the reinforcements did not receive the transfer order from the West Route Army, so they rashly came to the Dak Valley, and even dispatched a regiment of Constructed Swordsmen to the Moyunling Highland with a very tough attitude. to scout.

This not only touched the vital interests of the Lord Suldak, but also probably completely angered the young Lord.

Even if they hold tens of thousands of black magic crystals in their hands, they are unwilling to sell them to the lords of Handanal County.

Although the deal with the lord of Suldak failed to be concluded, Marquis Caesar was not too anxious. In fact, he could choose to directly contact the business houses and adventure groups in the valley here. It is estimated that they still have a lot of money in their hands. of the Black Magic Crystal.

In addition, once the main army of the reinforcements enters the Moyunling Highlands, they will be able to harvest a large amount of magic spar just around the corner.

……

Watching Marquis Caesar walk down the city wall gracefully, although his face remained calm, the anger in his eyes almost gushed out from his eye sockets.

Carrie Decker walked over from the east wall in heavy armor, stopped beside Samira, and asked Suldak with a puzzled expression:

"Boss, the purchase price he gave is not bad! Why don't you sell him?"

Suldak knew what Carrie Decker meant. She meant that anyone could sell these black magic crystals. Even if they brought them back to the province of Bena, they might not be able to raise the price of twenty gold coins. Frequently, the black magic crystals also began to flood.

As he became more and more familiar with Carrie Decker, Suldak found that this second-rank powerhouse who could wear heavy armor and hold a magic shotgun was a versatile player, so he left her in the construction department. As the leader of the Knights, she can arrange the daily work of the Knights in an orderly manner, and throwing her into the forest camp to be responsible for the management of the entire camp can also make the camp run normally.

And as a commander, Carrie Decker is sensible enough to never make some rash actions like Andrew.

That man with the soul of a berserker is simply a lunatic on the battlefield...

Suldak patted the money bag on his waist and said with a smile:

"Would you be surprised if I said that all the black magic crystals in my hand have been spent?"

Carrie Decker blinked and said, "That's no surprise..."

"The number of consumable magic weapons we have invested on the battlefield in the last few battles has increased rapidly. The weapons, equipment and supplies of the Aegrod tribe are also an astronomical figure. In addition, the various rewards on the merit exchange list are also gradually increasing. If it weren't for our complete victory in several battles, it is estimated that our situation will become very difficult."

In fact, there are many secrets hidden in Suldak's lord army, but everyone just tacitly does not take the initiative to mention them.

For example, the mysterious alchemist Aphrodite and her enhanced magic pattern, the mysterious red dragon and ghost army, and those large quantities of supplies that can reach the battlefield without any supply lines.

Many things are attributed to mysterious magic...

Suldak did not expect that Carrie Decker would see it so thoroughly, and said with some emotion:

"That's right... Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken the cavalry regiment to risk crossing the entire highland and running all the way to the North Mountain Pass to help the Aegrod tribe build the northern line of defense."
