Farming in the Magical World

really,

For the next few days, Tiffany didn't leave her bedroom once, just hiding in bed and silently shedding tears.

Lenny stayed with her for a whole day, but her condition did not improve.

But various arrangements had already come his way, so he had no choice but to leave temporarily to handle things, and could only try to go back to the bedroom as early as possible at night to spend more time with his family.

He couldn't stay hidden in his room indulging in romantic love forever, so he had Candy stay by his wife's side during the day.

After all, life goes on, and there's a lot to do after a major battle.

First was the post-battle debriefing of the security guards, which was held at the camp. Lanny did not attend because he had to stay with Tiffany, but the final results were delivered to his study immediately.

As Lanny requested, Tim gathered all the team members who participated in the battle and asked each of them to review the battle from their own perspective, share their thoughts and suggestions.

Tim initially thought his request was unnecessary, but the final result surprised him greatly.

He always thought that these civilians couldn't possibly have any ideas; it would be quite good if they could strictly follow the instructions. This was the goal the training manual aimed to achieve, and it was also the philosophy he upheld during training.

Just as he had predicted, at the beginning of the debriefing meeting, the team members spoke haltingly and illogically, which made him feel that what he had recorded was all nonsense.

But when these team members understood the meaning of the post-battle debriefing meeting, what they said opened his eyes, some of which he had never even expected.

The opinions that the shield's metal coverage is not large enough and that the coverage should be increased, or that one shield is enough for a four-person team and that more shields would be cumbersome, are all fairly conventional.

Some of the details mentioned by the team members made him take them seriously.

For example, one of the team members pointed out that the current red-tasseled spearhead is very sharp and can easily penetrate too deeply. The design of the spearhead makes it difficult to pull out, and the liquid on it and the sweat on the hands can also cause the shaft to slip.

He even offered his own suggestions, such as designing the spearhead with a spindle shape at both the tip and the connection point, which would obviously make it easier to pull out than the current design. He also suggested tying cloth strips to the shaft so that it wouldn't slip and fall off during intense combat.

Regarding the design of the gun head shape, it was actually an oversight by Lanny. He designed it to look like a mouse arrow because he had never used such a thing before, and he really didn't think of such a detail.

He vaguely remembered the second point: the red tassel on the spear was meant to prevent liquid from dripping down the shaft and causing slippage. However, he had forgotten this detail at the time and subconsciously assumed it was just decoration. In addition, due to time constraints, he didn't allow it to be done.

The suggestion that amazed Tim the most and left Lenny speechless was made by Gavin.

On the battlefield, he noticed that Petrov's warhorse had fallen into a trench and injured its thigh with a splinter stuck in the trench. When cleaning up the battlefield, he had intended to keep the horse, but because of its leg injury, it ended up being used as food.

He suggested that a wooden board could be made, covered with wooden spikes, or even better, iron spikes. If the enemy cavalry came, they could throw this thing out and knock the cavalry off their horses.

As a seasoned knight, Tim imagined the scene and was indeed terrified. One of these things was easy to dodge, but several would be... really hard to dodge.

The knight's armor was heavy and cumbersome. Once he dismounted, he would be surrounded by several men poking him indiscriminately, which would probably...

No matter how Lanny listened, he felt that this thing was based on the same principle as a tire deflation device. Apart from the difference in material and the size of the effect, the principle was exactly the same.

The more Lanny thought about it, the more interested he became. He even planned to take matters into his own hands, optimize Gavin's idea, and have the workshop produce a few first, so he could try it out when the opportunity arose.

However, Lanny quickly realized something was wrong. Didn't these warhorses have horseshoes? That's like having a layer of armor on their hooves. This thing probably wouldn't be very useful.

"Horseshoes, what are those?" Tim looked at Lanny, who suddenly became excited and then suddenly looked frustrated, completely baffled.

"A horseshoe, you know, the one on a horse's hoof..."

Suddenly asked by Tim, Lanny was at a loss for words and gestured for a while before Tim finally understood what he was talking about, but his eyes lit up.

"Yes, that way we won't have to fix horseshoes so often, and it will also prevent them from breaking. Great idea!"

After saying that, he suddenly looked defeated, just like Lenny had just done.

"No, no, the iron is too expensive, we can't afford it! Who can afford to raise a horse like that?"

After hearing his explanation, Lanny finally understood. The reason horseshoes hadn't appeared wasn't just that no one had thought of them; the more important reason was that iron was too expensive!

Overall, the post-war debriefing was a great success, far exceeding Tim's expectations.

Besides the post-war debriefing meeting, another important event was the promotion ceremony.

Through the debriefing meeting and the evaluation of combat achievements, Black Tiger, Aaron, and Wayne, the three squad leaders, were awarded the title of Second-Class Guardian for their effective command.

Old Joe, Tommy, and others were awarded the title of First Class Guardian for their outstanding performance. Even Gavin, the talkative one, was awarded the title of First Class Guardian for his meritorious service in the battle alongside Black Tiger.

The promotion ceremony was held in the afternoon in the center of the camp's plaza.

Lanny ordered a small platform to be built in the center of the square, and then wooden planks were laid on it to make an awards ceremony.

He doesn't plan to demolish it in the future, and any events can be held here.

At this moment, Lanny, dressed in formal attire and with a solemn expression, stood on the platform. Behind him stood Tim, dressed in knight's clothes with a long sword at his waist, and Frank, dressed in butler's clothes and carrying a tray.

"Black Tiger, Aaron, Wayne, come up to the stage!" Tim raised his voice and shouted after all thirty guards had assembled.

Upon hearing this, the three squad leaders, who were at the head of their respective squads, stepped out of their ranks, lined up from the left side of the steps, and stood on the platform, facing Lanny, pounding their chests in salute.

Lanny looked at the three people in front of him and felt a little emotional. He remembered that just over half a month ago, these three people came to the camp to register with their own purposes.

Black Tiger and Aaron both came from Black Mountain Village. Their first question was whether they would be conscripted to seek revenge on the Grummans. Wayne, on the other hand, was more concerned about whether he would actually receive a monthly salary, since he was the only one left in his family and was so poor that he was almost starving.

At this moment, all three seemed to have undergone a tremendous change. Their expressions were resolute and calm, and their actions were decisive and efficient, revealing a ruthless and iron-blooded aura at a glance.

As the three stood on the stage, Tim handed over a pre-prepared promotion order from behind him. Lanny unfolded it and read it aloud in front of the stage.

"Black Tiger, a member of the Caster Ridge Security Guard and a native of Black Mountain Village, distinguished himself in the battle against the Grummans in the Kingdom Calendar 287... He fought bravely and valiantly, demonstrating outstanding performance. Therefore, this promotion order is hereby issued, granting Black Tiger the title of Second-Class Guardian of the Security Guard, in recognition of his bravery and in gratitude for his selfless dedication to Caster Ridge. Awarded by: Lanny Wells."

After the announcement was finished, Lanny rolled up the promotion order and handed it to Black Tiger. Black Tiger was already flushed with excitement. He trembled as he accepted the promotion order and bowed again, pounding his chest.

Meanwhile, a buzz of discussion arose from the audience. Tim glanced at it but did not stop them. He knew these guys were envious, but that wasn't a bad thing.

When Lanny saw Black Tiger bow again, he instinctively raised his right hand to his forehead and returned the bow without thinking.

His actions startled the three people in front of him. Tim looked at him in confusion, while Lanny realized that it was his deep-rooted consciousness at work.

However, he didn't intend to explain anything. He calmly lowered his right hand and extended his right hand to Frank on his right. Frank only realized what was happening when he saw his outstretched right hand and quickly moved the tray forward.

Lanny picked up a small metal piece from the tray, opened the back of the dial, took a half step forward, and approached Black Tiger.

The piece of iron was small, shaped like an inverted triangle, and polished to an exceptionally smooth finish, revealing a bright silver-white color. Two diagonal dents had been hammered into its surface with a hard object, making it resemble a knight's sword. A curved iron needle was attached to its back, serving to secure the piece.

This is a guard badge designed by Lanny and forged by Hammer. The indentations on it are indeed two swords, or more accurately, two swords with dark patterns.

However, such meticulous processing was a real pain for Iron Hammer. He tried many methods, but the results were still blurry. In the end, when there was no way to make it any more precise, Lanny had no choice but to make do with what he had.

He unfastened the pin on the back of the guard medal, pinned it to Black Tiger's chest, then took a half step back, raised his right hand again, and saluted.

When Hammer saw Lanny make that strange gesture again, he understood without being taught that it was Lord Lanny saluting him. Although the etiquette was very strange, the fact that a nobleman was personally praising him in front of everyone and saluting him made him feel excited and grateful. He raised his right hand, clenched his fist, and pounded his chest hard, as if nothing else could express his feelings.

Putting down the black tiger in his right hand, at Lanny's signal, he turned to face the team members below the stage, so that everyone could see the medal on his chest and the promotion order in his hand.

"Salute..." Tim shouted, and all the team members instinctively began to salute.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!..." The sound of neat salutes echoed across the square, and Black Tiger, under everyone's gaze, walked down the platform with great excitement.

"Cast Ridge Security Guard, member Aaron..."
