The Amber Sword: Act 35 Expansion (sixteen)

The thirty-fifth act of expansion (sixteen)

"Ciel?"

Brando nodded.

"... Of course, if there are artisans in the city who are good at engineering, you can also pay attention." He thought for a while, but of course he didn't expect much from this proposal, because the craftsmen who know how to build cities are all in this era. The Master Level character --, who has a great reputation in engineering, is Brando, and he does not believe that such a remote and remote place as Fir City will be crowded with hermits.

This is not writing novels. Things like Master Bolu are nothing more than exceptions.

But in fact, Brando can't help but feel a little bit embarrassed. It ’s also like, for example, building a fortress, especially the large fortress --. To tell the truth, this is not how much resources are consumed by playing game --. The system will directly remove you from the warehouse, and then beep ~ Drop you a fortress in the reckless forest.

Here, clay and stone do not automatically run to the wall, even a brick must be burned out of the kiln before being sent to the construction site. The labor force is not just a mere data, if only those people are brought together, then these people are just a black hole forget it/that's all that consumes a lot of food day after day.

How to arrange overall manpower is a very professional Skill. Although it is simply to let a hundred people work together to exert the power of a hundred people instead of fifty or less, but it does It's hard.

Although Brando has experience which manages a few people, once this number rises to several thousand to tens of thousands, they will be helpless.

This is not a war, after all, you must first know what these people should do.

In his mind, some of the best candidates are Magesmith of -- Buga, the mountain dwarf of Roland, or the big Goblin -- of Gorgon Ravine. They are all the world's best fortresses of Vaunde.

But the best is not necessarily the most suitable. First of all, apart from Buga's Magesmith, Brando does not even know where to go now to find a mountain dwarf or a large Goblin.

The country where the dwarves of Roland live north is farther north than Saers, where high mountain is covered with snow all year round, and in the south of Aouine, you can hardly see this nation. As for the hilly dwarves, Many, but the distant relatives of these mountain dwarves are experts in winemaking, and basically have nothing to do with fortification.

As for the big Goblin, let alone this. The big Goblin belongs to the noble nation under the Gorgon Ravine. Not only is it a master of fortifications, but it is also one of the most combat-literate nations. People ca n’t go to the barren surface world to suffer like the Tajiv.

And the only Buga Magesmith you can find, those white-bearded old men who are high above Silver Alliance, Brando do n’t expect them to see themselves.

Those who have become sophisticated, they are no better than encountering these "village guys" who have not seen much (according to Buga wizard). Brando is very suspicious that these Silver Lineages may be in a few words and accidentally pass him through. It's not impossible to guess your identity.

Brando didn't have any extra thoughts for a while. This kind of thing can only be take one step at a time. Although there is no way to do it in a short period of time, after a long time until his strength rises, maybe he can find any alternative means.

So he can only add a sentence in the end: "Let your hands and feet do it, I believe in your ability."

That's what made damsel's eyes light up, then nodded seriously.

But at this time Correct, a youngster's voice came from outside: "I seem to hear you calling me, Lord Thane?"

Scarlett subconsciously leaning on the edge of black pine not far away followed this voice, turned around, and just saw the Ciel in a black robe came in from outside -- In fact, the young big Wizard since that night *** After that, he rarely appeared in front of outsiders, as if he had plunged into the small room arranged for him in the castle, leaving nothing to the world.

Of course, according to Ciel's own explanation to Brando's, he is familiar with spell --. After all, an apprentice becomes wizard of Magister Level overnight, how can it take a buffer time.

Now it looks like this guy is doing quite well these days. When Brando saw him, the young wizard was full of ease and freehand -- and even a little bit of interesting taste. -- It seems that the outside world is indeed better than he is. graveyard is much more interesting.

Even if you live in a small room all day.

"Why are you here?" Brando asked, but he immediately saw that Ciel was not alone, and he was followed by an youngster.

youngster knows that -- is the only lucky or unfortunate guy in the team of adventurers that he met when he first entered Fir City. Brando remembers that he was a Chord Magic apprentice.

But this youngster has remained in this group since they killed Grudin, which makes him quite puzzled. As far as he knows, this youngster and several of his companions are all from the gentry household. Although it is not powerful, it is at least after noble.

There is no need to fooling around with a group of people like these mercenariess. According to Amandina, the group said that they were good to say insurgents, and that they were not good, in fact, they were not far behind thieves, which is dominated by Zhanshan.

It can only be said that the real thieves group lacks people like him and damsel who know game rules between noble and forget it/that's all.

Ciel smiled slightly and walked to a few people. Respectfully paid a tribute to Brando. An wizard salutes an noble. If an outsider sees that it is necessary to scare the chin, the young Wizard still meticulously greets: "Lord Thane."

In fact, his move already surprised youngster behind him.

The youngster, who was habitually wearing a green grey robe and lacked expression on his face, finally showed a weird look. He looked at the master and servant: Although Brando is a gold first-order Sword Master, Ciel does not hesitate to let it go. The young Gold rank wizard, speaking of status can be much higher than a Swordsman.

Even if Brando has noble status.

Amandina standing beside Brando holding the file is not strange, just shake your head only if you don't see the treatment. And Medissa and Scarlett, who did not understand the etiquette of humans in this era, grew up in the collective mercenary since childhood, and naturally have no insight in this regard, but are much more calm than youngster.

"Actually, I'm here to ask for money," Ciel replied with a smile, he also scratched his head --. You can imagine a big Wizard scratching his head helplessly, this time even pulling the corners of Scarlett: "But first it was money."

"Send money?" Brando froze.

"Let's talk about money first, because I know that you are always more interested in bad news." Ciel replied immediately: "You asked me about the last time. I thought about it and it should be fine. "

Brando reacted immediately.

At first, he originally intended this guy to form a performer Council -- similar to Tower of the Stars and Moons. After all, Ciel is actually already is the invisible leader of all spellcaster in his territory. If you integrate those unevenness in Mercenary An uneven apprentice wizard is not impossible.

Although it may seem a bit horrible now, the prospect is still considerable; not to mention that it can compete with Silver Alliance in the future, but it must not be inferior to Black Tower Wizard.

The only trouble is that I don't know if Ciel is the Black Tower Wizard's heritage. Is there any related Taboo? Brando knows the strictness of wizards's confidentiality of their respective knowledge systems. When Black Tower Wizard came out of Silver Alliance, it almost caused war.

Of course, this is a digression. Brando only mentioned it at the beginning. I did not expect to receive a reply today. But let ’s not mention it first, the line of Ciel 'send money' really surprised him.

What kind of trick is this guy playing? He thought of immediately.

"Let's talk about the second thing," Brando replied.

But Ciel reminded with a smile: "Lord Thane, did you forget about existence me?"

"What is it?" Brando was wondering, but saw Ciel draw a picture from the Dimensional Bag on the waist to --

"Martha above, Dark Luminary Princess's painting!"

Amandina's eyes widened, the files on his hands slipped to the ground, and he couldn't help yelling.

She immediately appeared skeptical: "Isn't this a fake?" She looked at Ciel and then at Brando. She thought that from the perspective of her Lord Thane and the Wizard, it didn't seem to be the same. Impossible look.

But Brando shook his head: "This is the real thing." He already remembered this thing. At the time they were at Rydenburg, the stolen goods they took away by hand, although it was a little glorious, but now it seems that -- made this decision It's really brilliant.

Dark and dazzling paintings are highly sought after in the collection market. It is not impossible to sell a few million Tor sky high prices. Although this amount of money is not much, it is enough to solve the urgent need.

But there is no market for this thing in Fir City. If you want to sell for a good price, you must find the right place. Brando At this time, in fact, already has a goal, which is the only *** trade port of Aouine:

Ampere Searl --

He couldn't help but think that he really needed a person to go to Ampere Searl to take a look, not to mention that in the future Fir Tree Barony will definitely have to establish trade relations with this port. Even the influence of tangled and complicated there is enough to attract those real adventurers to invest in it.

Especially in this season, all the troops are under pressure. Brando guesses that the Ampere Searl at this moment must be lively.

Thinking of this, already on his face showed a smiling smile.
