Magus Tech

The time may not be too long, but for the soldiers marching, it seems like a century has passed.

They walked forward, forward, and forward in the chaotic mountains against the night, risking falling, and enduring fatigue.In the end they looked like skeletons that had lost their souls, mechanically moving their limbs, numbly following the flow of people, or briefly stopping.

Finally, when the eastern sky was bright, the leading team, a knight full of magical costumes, walked out of the chaotic mountains and stepped on the flat ground.

In front of them, a boxy city is outlined. It is a border trade transit station in Shalin. There are not many people and soldiers stationed, but they are also not many.To be honest, no one thought about it, the enemy can suddenly appear here.

The magical knight looked at the city and began to line up in silence. Behind them, the rest of the soldiers who stepped out of the confused mountain range also joined in.

For a moment, thousands of people silently launched a collective charge.

The reason is silent, not because you want to keep it concealed, but because your throat is dry, your strength is almost exhausted, and you have no mood to shout, just want to use the remaining power where you should.

Rush.

Close to the city gate.

The wizard vacated, and the magical knight activated the magic pattern.

The flame burned in the city.

By the time the flames were extinguished, the city had changed its owners-after all, it was just a small, insignificant border town in Shalin, and there was not much resistance.

...

After the town was captured, Sauron quickly got two news.

Good news, bad news.

The good news is that starting from this border town, you can follow the road paved by the sand forest and hit the hinterland directly.It wasn't until the center of Sarin, near Atlanta, that it was possible for the Sarin army to be blocked by the terrain.

The bad news is that it is clearly a trade transit point, stocking many goods, but without the food they most urgently need.

The explanation for the captives in the city was that more than half a month ago, the grain was crossed from the trade list for no reason.The daily food is transported from Atlanta at a long distance, and there are three days before the next transportation.

"No food? Three days?" In the military account of the temporary staff outside the city, Sauron said to himself, his eyes deepened, and he felt that he had guessed something, but he was still not sure.

...

Atlanta City, top floor office of City Hall.

It is difficult for Richard to find out that here, Vice Lord Shalin, Jasmine, is relaying news from various places to him.

"That Sauron, a little bit powerful, found a short way through the confused mountains and suddenly came to Mist City. After the capture, he used Mist City as a stronghold and was rushing towards Atlanta along the main road.

Because our troops are not many, most of them are fighting on the left and right sides of the opponent, and a small number of them are blocked in the confused mountains. Therefore, it is difficult to organize new troops to resist the opponent.Just before I reported to you, there have been eighteen large and small cities that have been conquered or surrendered.

There are also several neighboring territories and special garrison areas. After the first wave of offensive force was defeated by us, it was surprising to organize a second wave of offensive force.They have now entered Shalin territory and captured five or six small towns.Also because of our military strength, we cannot organize effective resistance.

It seems that not long after, the entire sarin except for the area around Atlanta can be secured, most of the area will be lost."

Speaking of which, Jasmine paused, looking at Richard: "Of course, this is not what you expected, Lord Richard?"

Li Cha glanced at Jasmine and asked, "You seem to have a little emotion?"

"Where do I dare." Jasmine shrugged. "After all, you are the real lord of Shalin, and although I have paid so much for Shalin, I have planned almost every city, but is it just a laborer?"

"Listening to what you mean, I hope I can solve these minor problems?"

"Aren't you ready to shoot?" Jasmine looked at Richard strangely. "If you don't shoot, most of the sarin will be smashed. Maybe the area around Atlanta is the core, but the rest of the place has my efforts. Ah, I don’t want to be destroyed like this. It takes too much energy to rebuild."

Richard moved his eyebrows: "I do have the power to solve problems, but I am waiting for a result. If I can, I want to solve the problem more thoroughly, rather than let me solve the problem on the watch, because then it will still be in trouble.

As for the problem of sarin being smashed, there is no need to consider it now.I know that you have paid a lot for Sarin in recent years. I promise here that after this battle, you can get what you want in advance-to become the Sika royal orthodox-if you still think about it at that time."

Jasmine froze for a moment, and there were many questions she wanted to ask in an instant. After thinking for a while, she selectively asked: "What result are you waiting for?"

"Me..." Li Cha said halfway, looking at the office door, and Jasmine followed him.

Footsteps sounded outside the door, and then the door was pushed open with a "squeaky" sound. A bare head was squeezed in first, followed by the body. It was Neo Hrouville, the head of Lvyuan Castle.

Hrouville held a black metal box in his hand, with excitement in his face, quickly walked to Richard and handed it out, shouting: "Lord Richard, three days, when you have done it, I will give you the success you want. You brought it, you can check it. If you are not satisfied, you can directly kill me here. After all, after I go back, I might be killed by the guy who stayed up for three days."

Richard didn't talk, but just took the box, opened it gently, and took out the contents.

Jasmine looked curiously, and saw that what Richard had in his hand was a green, fist-sized fruit with a moist surface, as if it was rich in water and very delicious.But apart from that, there is nothing special about it.

What is the use of this?

Jasmine wondered.

At the next moment, her eyes widened, and she saw that the green fruit in Li Cha's hand was suddenly delivered to her mouth, "click" to take a bite, chewed down.

"Click" again, chewed and swallowed again.

"Click" third and fourth...

It took about a minute for Richard to finish eating the whole fruit.

Jasmine was a little stunned. Seriously, she had known Richard for so long. This was the first time she saw Richard eating like a normal human.Before, she thought that Richard had no such function at all. Even if she was hungry, she was drinking nutrient solution.

After Richard finished eating the fruit, he looked at Herouville and thought about it and asked, "Now the green source fruit you delivered seems to have a conversion rate of about 13%, which is higher than the estimated 10%. About three percentage points."

"Hah." Herouville smiled. "It's true. It's indeed three percentage points higher. But this is not my credit, but the credit of the people you gave me temporarily, Lord Richard. Their character is not very good. , But the ability, I have to say very strong.

After letting them stay up for three days, they have reached the point where they are now. I propose to let them stay up again for half a month, which is likely to increase the energy conversion rate of Lvyuanguo to 20%."

"Stay up late for half a month?" Richard listened and shook his head. "I'm afraid they will really kill you by then."

Gently patted his hands and said: "Okay, so far, the Luyuan project has finally succeeded. It's a little late, but it's not too late. At least our enemies haven't scored in Atlanta yet. Then, your Luyuan The castle should be well prepared. In addition, notify the Black Sun Castle and let them start the Black Day plan."

"It's getting dark soon." Saying this, Li Cha looked out at the bright sky outside the window.

Heruville's smiling expression slowly became serious, and he listened and nodded deeply: "Yes." After that, he turned and went out.

Inside the door, Jasmine frowned at Richard, and asked, "What is the meaning of the sky is going to be dark soon?"

"It literally means." Richard replied, "Wait, you will be clear immediately."

"How long to wait?"

"Twelve hours."
