Chapter 273 Assigning Tasks (5 More)
Talling 343 showed this hand, which immediately aroused Matthew's curiosity.

"Image magic?"

"Something's not right. There's no obvious spell fluctuation."

"Illusion?"

"It's impossible. There was no obvious warning from Yaya or the magic equipment."

"Is it some function of the mage tower?"

"It's quite possible..."

Matthew quickly analyzed it, especially the constantly flashing digital display, which showed extraordinary sensitivity at this moment.

Quickly, the magic channels and spell model structures were revealed to Matthew one by one.

This is not some profound magic!

Instead, it is the simplest 0-level magic - image magic!

However, the imaging level of 343 is extremely exaggerated. It has exceeded the upper limit of LV5 and reached a whole new level.

343 must not be simple!
Before Matthew could peek at her message, 343 lightly snapped his fingers.

The area pattern of red light spots quickly began to enlarge and appeared clearly in front of everyone's eyes.

The soldiers, who had never seen this scene before, subconsciously widened their eyes.

Some were so frightened that they closed their eyes in fear, fell to the ground, and shouted without thinking.

The leading nobles looked at each other. They couldn't understand 343's performance at all, and they were also shocked and confused.

Most of the nobles treat this tower spirit, who is usually harmless to humans and animals, with respect to the city lord.

For them, the consequences of angering the city lord are very serious. It is no big deal to give 343 a little face.

But they never expected that the other party would hide so deeply.

Just showing his hands without leaving any trace gave them such a big shock.

Matthew watched the image appearing in the sky with interest.

On one side, he secretly browsed the information deep in his memory, and on the other side, he curiously counted the red dots that represented the number of barbarians.

Something doesn't seem right?

It seems a bit much!

A red dot definitely represents more than just one person.

To represent ten people, only a few thousand is too few.

Representing thousands of people, tens of thousands is a bit exaggerated.

"As you can see, this is a warning from the borders of the empire."

"More than 6 barbarian wanderers have approached our Blood Moon City and are heading straight towards us along the east coast area."

"No matter what the other party's purpose is, the Eastern Province Noble Council has given an order."

"Our current recruitment mission in Blood Moon City is to deal with this group of barbarian wanderers who have broken in."

As soon as these words came out, most of the leading nobles present were in an uproar.

It's not that they have any objections. Faced with an enemy that threatens the family, it is common sense for all leading nobles to fight against them at the risk of their lives.

However, they never imagined that the enemy was such a large number of barbarians!

This is much more dangerous than occasionally cleaning out kobolds and gnolls!

Some of the leading nobles who had already known that the enemy was a barbarian were also startled at this time.

After all, there are too many enemies, almost twice the number of troops recruited this time!
In this case, even if they have confidence in themselves, it is difficult to guarantee that their troops will not suffer excessive losses.

It is one thing to lead troops to support the city lord, but it is another thing to sacrifice blood... 343 is aware of everyone's emotions, but has no intention of explaining it. Instead, he continues to assign tasks in a cold voice:
"We must seal these barbarians near the coast to ensure that they do not spread to other territories in Blood Moon City."

"The first force, numbering four, set off from the Gulf Territory to the right and blocked their path to the west in advance."

"We must hold on tight and make sure they don't come from the east side of Blood Moon City."

"Now, in addition to the Gulf Army led by Lord Matthew, which other lords want to join?"

As soon as the voice fell, almost everyone looked at Matthew with a strange expression on their face.

Everyone knows that the first unit that comes into contact with the enemy must be the most dangerous.

Because, they will face the attack of all enemies encircling them together!

The Bay Territory is Matthew's territory, and he must join this battle, which means that the greatest risk will be borne by him.

The others breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but look like they were watching a good show.

There were some complaints that I had originally made, but I didn’t say them again.

No one from the Gulf Territory had any objections, and others had no right to speak.

Only a few people's expressions remained unchanged. They knew very well how tough the Gulf Territory soldiers were.

I also know that under such circumstances, the other party will definitely not send only 1000 troops to participate in the battle!

However, it is definitely an extremely dangerous thing to face more than 6 barbarians.

Although the Empire recruits valuable merits for completing tasks and killing enemies.

But for the vast majority of lords and nobles, preserving their strength is what they want to do most.

Even if these "soldiers" died, only some insignificant civilians were killed or injured.

But they didn't dare to hide the pension that came from the empire's supervision.

This will again be a considerable expense.

Moreover, this is not like fighting other territories and human kingdoms, both sides will maintain a certain degree of restraint.

For leading nobles, they generally would not kill them.

They can handle it calmly even when there is no life-threatening situation.

But facing these barbarians is completely different!

Who knows what they would do?
They have also heard that there are some special barbarians who like to kill the opponent's coach to prove their bravery!
If they encounter this kind of situation, they will really have nothing to complain about.

Some people begin to regret, why should they take this job that is usually safe but now encounters sudden danger?
There are also some leading nobles who regret being too perfunctory and would have brought more personal guards if they had known better.

Even if he loses the battle, he can escape safely under the escort of his personal guards.

More people have begun to think about how to avoid being selected into the first area.

Just when everyone was silent, Brown raised his hand without thinking:
"I apply to voluntarily join Area 1 and fight alongside Lord Matthew."

"And I am willing to accept the command of Lord Matthew and obey his combat arrangements and orders."

As soon as he said this, the surrounding leading nobles immediately looked over.

Brown was a little uneasy before saying this, but after noticing their gloating eyes, he couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart:

"They are really brainless idiots. Tens of thousands of troll troops can't do anything to the Gulf Territory. What do tens of thousands of barbarians mean?"

"As long as our first area withstands the opponent's first wave of offensive, the barbarians will definitely not continue to chew on our tough bones."

"When the time comes, it's hard to say who will be unlucky..."

Brown, who had been severely beaten, was now thankful that he was "lying flat".
