At the same place, the hall of Cremand Castle, which had held a banquet the night before, was tidied up at noon on the second day, and all the "high-rise" people also changed their costumes, with a serious look of "the invasion of the Holy Gabriel Empire." The problem began to be discussed.

Murphy was too lazy to figure out what the purgatory giants wanted to do. He looked at the pieces of intelligence that had been sorted into categories, and he didn't frown and think hard about what he had done before, but looked at the corner of his mouth with a smile. The huge sandbox on the mainland in front of him lightly relieved and asked, "There is no news over William?"

Aside from the side of the pile of parchment, Elindal took a look, and replied: "The last contact was a month ago, it seems that the Creman family had learned of Giovanni's conspiracy and did There is a response, but there is no other news so far."

"Oh... that old immortal, what else can I do besides hiding?"

Ashcandy, who wanted to spend a romantic night with Murphy, was disrupted by Gabriel’s news, and his idea of ​​grievance was completely vented to the poor Clemens. I just felt funny and persuaded: "Now the source of information inside Sacred Gabriel is almost closed. If you want to know the movement of the pope, I am afraid that only by contacting this patriarch can you make a breakthrough. The "creed" has limited power over there. , I think maybe only you..."

"Shall I go?" Ashcandi pouted, disgusted with the Creman family's emotions, but then she nodded and responded, "No problem, provided he doesn't trouble me with novel chapters. "

"I have to pray that you don't have to trouble him first." Murphy smiled and turned his head to look at the "staff" behind him, and asked, "How do you think about these bully and hard guys?"

The so-called "bully and afraid" is because although the army of the sacred Gabriel also attacked Barrich, but bypassed the edge of the Lampard territory, even without the intention of attacking, he rushed to Buti, the capital of West Barrich. Ka, completely terrified of Murphy's territory.

As the nominal territory leader, Hegel got up slowly and said: "They only came to the army of 20,000. If the'night watchman' is dispatched collectively, I don't think they will be finished in one round, as if the pope had already Having figured this out, I can only say that he made a correct choice."

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere was relaxed.

In fact, Hegel, who was hated by the Glass family, would not want the Buttigian royal family to annihilate the clan early, but at this moment he could not express such a subjective, he coughed and continued: "According to the reason... Gabriel’s strength is so scattered, who is fighting? Neither will have an advantage, but with "good allies" like purgatory, they are now in full swing, with 20,000 troops and hundreds of thousands of purgatory creatures, but Putija can’t stop it from cooperating with other countries. It’s also hard to hold on for too long."

Murphys listened to his statement and glanced across the sand table. In addition to the island country Ingeway, Gilman, Fording, Barrich, Byzantium, and Caslandi were all occupied by a large area of ​​land, even Murphy’s hometown Hook County. Fall into the reign of this group of "Jihad".

"But are these countries really unsustainable? Actually, the strength has not yet been consolidated. Byzantium must be able to withstand this offensive, and some of the remaining countries can withstand and some can't withstand, but if they look at him like this I'm afraid it will be annexed sooner or later... What's worrying now is, what kind of abacus is this old **** stick with Tiger seeking?"

Hegel pointed to the areas marked as occupied by the sacred Gabriel empire, "Those who have been bitten by purgatory creatures will become what everyone knows, at present it seems that the old **** sticks of the sacred Gabriel have not been completely mad No, but there is no guarantee that the civilians who have been annexed to the territory will be'handled'. If everything is a conspiracy of purgatory, then the pope has done a stupid thing."

This is an objective matter. If millions or even tens of millions of civilians have been transformed into purgatory creatures, it will definitely be a disaster. Even if the armed force is absolutely strong, Lampard is not necessarily Can withstand the other party's attack.

"How to fight?"

Brown, who once served in the Byzantine Cavalry Regiment, pointed to the central area of ​​the sand table as the core area of ​​the sacred Gabriel empire. "The strength of our troops is not precise. There are too many enemies. We can't stop it, maybe we can only..."

"Destroy the Pope directly? Not easy..."

No one would think that the pope is a persimmon that everyone kneads. Sunderland pointed out the scary magic array and defensive means of the Pope’s Hall. Brown did not argue after listening to it. After all, Lampard’s The army has not yet reached the point of assuming the responsibility of the "maintainer of the mainland". War is war, and war is for the sake of gaining benefits. If you can't get the benefits by simply taking your life, who will go to war?

"Right... how is the mobile teleportation array prepared?"

Listening to these discussions, Murphy suddenly raised a question that was not very relevant.

Sunderland and Krivi are jointly responsible for this subject that Murphy just raised a few days ago, but they quickly gave the answer: "The teleportation array you requested... There is no difficulty in theory, and it can be achieved if there are sufficient materials. Claim."

Jeanna, Jeanne and others could not understand what they were talking about, but when Murphys nodded and smiled, he calmed down inwardly and no longer worried about how difficult the current situation would become.

"How about food?"

Murphy turned to Hegel.

"Affected by the tree of Hida, this year’s output has increased by five or six times, and the news from the alchemy room...these grains have helped the soldiers to restore their strength and growth, so the grains exported in recent days have made Those peasants earn a lot.” Speaking of these, Hegel said, “Of course, the food prepared in the territory now is sufficient for the entire army for the whole year.”

Murphys was silent, closing his eyes and thinking. Everyone feels that this atmosphere is somewhat different from the past. When the “night watchman” has never had such a collective discussion strategy, and the calmness of Murphy’s few words leading the entire conference atmosphere has never appeared...even the most dull. Hessel, can also notice the difference.

"Then talk about my opinion..." Opening his eyes slightly, Murphy's voice was calm and without waves. "What is our advantage? The most powerful group of magicians, equipment, the most powerful knights, infantry , Longbowmen, in terms of soldiers’ ability, the entire continent is unmatched..."

Speaking of which, a kind of high-level executives inevitably have some pride and pride in their hearts, but Murphy's next words made them frown.

"But... to what extent can we, the'strongest' soldiers and mages, be stronger? Is it one or two lines stronger than the average of humans... or one or two times?"

This sentence said that young girls such as Andalil and Jeanne could not hear the meaning, but Hegel, Sunderland and Brown and others narrowed their eyes slightly and pondered.

"The fight is for strength, the frontal charge completely crushes the opponent, then we don’t need to make any conspiracy to take the risk...Now Heisel told me that "Lampard infantry should be used as a ten", I will never doubt it, but this is only facing When it is human. And when it comes to purgatory?"

He looked at his entourages who were gradually becoming enlightened, and continued: "We seem to have a preconceived misconception...always think that human beings can't beat those purgatory guys in the front, only by means of the city walls, by means of weapons, by this one... In fact, under certain conditions, the strength of these enemies may not be worth mentioning at all."

These words made everyone present stunned for a while, and it was true that Lampard's territory won the mainland. Memphis and Ashkandi alone can be said to be thousands of enemies, not to mention the Pangshi regiment whose number has risen to nine hundred...but if Murphys spoke out to remind them, they really have not thought about how to deal with These fierce and huge numbers of enemies in Purgatory are tough.

The confrontation between the Lampard territory and the purgatory beasts was not a "fight" at all. It was only a victory with defensive circle and Joan's spell. So listening to his words at this time, the night watchman's senior collective fell into deep thought.

"So what needs to be understood now is...what strength is our army in the end, is it crushing in the face of the scum of purgatory, or is it like stepping on ants... crushing them?"

His words came to a standstill, his expression calmed down, and his plain and relaxed temperament was suddenly abrupt.

"Compton, Irindal."

The intelligence consul and the big blood immediately stepped forward, waiting for Murphy's order.

"The task that was given to you to make cards is now officially started. Catch some enemies and come back to our soldiers to respond. Look at their responses and record all the data in detail." Murphy turned his head and looked at Andalil and Jeanne , "Especially including the situation under the influence of two sacrificial divine arts."

"Heysel."

"in!"

Hesel stood up like a brown bear, and responded to him with a voice like Hong Zhong.

"Let the young people who are known as'celestial pickers' learn to adapt to war. Our territory now has no enemies, it does not mean that we will not face the enemies in the future, and they will study with Compton how to make those soldiers overcome fear. Exercises, The exercise allows a certain percentage of deaths, and only by letting them understand the cruelty of war can these soldiers mature earlier."

"Yes!"

A few people took their orders, the Knights and Christina, who did not have time to return yesterday, looked at Murphys, and then they woke up. In fact, the consul had already had a way to deal with it...The previous discussion was just to tell them the current situation That's it.

"The equipment of the cavalry, the quality of the war horses, and the level of the knights are not only the best in this continent, but also the strongest in all planes...Do you understand what I mean?" Murphy raised his eyes slightly. "Human strength can be enhanced Warhorse is also possible, Sunderland"

The magician on the side stood up and stood by.

"The new mission of the Alchemy Lab is to study how to give these cavalry the most powerful impact, remember, the most powerful."

"Yes."

"Christina."

Murphy turned to face the countess, "Fordin's territory is threatened and can be asked for support at any time. Lampard needs military training and even more minerals from you."

Order by order, Murphys arranged new tasks for everyone, and even Andariel and Jeanne were no exception. Although the senior night watchman in a room was surprised by Murphys changes, more, But I felt a kind of calmness and confidence that would make them sink their hearts.

"Jeana, stay after the meeting."

"That’s all for today, let’s go first if you need to be busy"

This meeting decided all of Lampard's next plans. Murphy did not intend to take any immediate action or take a group of troops to run somewhere to die with the old **** stick. Now that the other party has circumvented himself, it means that they have sought something else to find this war. Of the key interests, Murphy can find a solution to the problem.

Determined to move forward, Murphy will not be as impatient now as he used to be.

After Ashcandi also left to find William, the huge hall was almost empty. The servants consciously withdrew from the house after cleaning up the tea cups. The humanoid Hydra sat by the window overlooking Arantis, Spink Si sleeps aside... and in the house, only Jeanne and Murphy are left.

"The soul tolerance of this armor is at a critical point."

It's no nonsense, Murphy directly named the reason why the soul knight stayed, standing in front of Jeanna, he looked at the Kel'gar Saint Kay reinforced by "Isis Silver Powder", reached out and touched, turned And asked: "Is life very monotonous now? Will you be bored?"

A few homely words are his heartfelt concern. After all, as a "experiment" for the heretical verdict, Na's fate is extremely miserable. After enduring countless pains, he can only rely on his current soul form to continue to serve Morpheus. Although she has been given a lot of freedom and power, in retrospect, Murphy has not seen her show a positive side. Ever.

She is still like a machine, patrolling and running around all day, immersing herself in "work" without asking the world.

Jeanna wore a helmet and heard nothing from Murphy's words, but when Murphy touched her shoulder armor, the light behind the helmet flashed a bit... but she remained silent and did not answer what.

"Don't worry too much about your body, I will have a way."

Murphy looked at the knight who was almost the same height as him after wearing armor. The back of his long hair flying and galloping seemed to flash in front of his eyes...He took a deep breath and said softly: "If... Body, will you... will you accept it?"

"Kara."

The all-metal gloves squeezed abruptly, making Na's eyes light up like a lit candlelight in a lonely night. She looked directly at Murphy's eyes, as if confirming the truth of the words.

"When I talked about purgatory creatures just now, I suddenly thought of some possibilities. If I can succeed, I should be able to do this for you."

Morpheus does have some ideas. Shaping the flesh out of nothing sounds like a fantasy, but it seems that it is not difficult for purgatory, a plane full of taboo magic.

"Need... What do I do?" Jeanna finally uttered her voice, and the slightly echoed inquiry shivered a little. After all, she had no delusions about her body and was suddenly given hope by Murphys, saying she was not excited. impossible.

"What to do? No, don't forget to do the tasks I arranged for you. When I'm sure, just"

Murphy hadn't finished speaking, with the same eyebrows, Jeana, who knelt on one knee and stretched her hand, said, "What is this for?"

Jeanna was a little speechless, but only a short while later answered quietly: "I... owe you too much."

"I should be right in saying this." Murphy probably understood what she was thinking, and found that she was stubbornly unwilling to get up. She simply squatted down and looked at her face-to-face, saying, "You were trying to save Ashkandi. And lost... the body ~ www.readwn.com ~ that should be due to my negligence, so now... this is what I owe."

Seeing Jeanna slightly hesitant, he continued: "You trust me, I trust you, it doesn't matter what contract or anything else, I do this, but I don't want to be morally condemned in my heart, not to mention noble, of course , I consider myself... not mean.

Slowly stood up, although Na accepted the words of Murphys, but the excitement within the time still did not calm down. What words did she want to say, but she felt that Murphys had blocked the path of "rewarding her". Want to go, had to give up, solemnly martial salute, silently withdrew from the hall.

But who knows what Jeana was thinking at this time?

Just now, Kelga Shengkai has been reinforced by the power of "law" at the moment when Murphy touched, so that within a short time, Na has no life crisis, so Murphy can temporarily not worry about Jeana’s soul.

As he stood up and walked out of the Cremand Castle, Murphy narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about the next situation, wandering in the territory, seemingly without pressure.

The situation was like a chessboard, and Murphy seemed to finally emerge from the role of "chess piece" and became a chess player overlooking everything.
