Chapter 157 11. The Correct Usage of Low Summoning Technique
The territory of Gemma Diatra is at a distance that can be said to be far or near. That's the edge of Xingyue Bay - theoretically Annan can build a camp there, adjacent to Gema's territory.
Ingrid thought that Germa could not do it. It would cost tens of thousands to open a port. Germa was just the second son without inheritance rights. It turned out that the assistant was terribly wrong - a steady stream of goods. Shipped from Breeze City and Bethal City to the port called "Snow Mountain Port".
The Diatra family is wealthy, and the Proud Boy is coming for real.
Annan even wondered whether Olmedo had arranged for Gemma Diatra to be driven by a churning catfish.
Looking at the current Xingyue Bay, the simple camps ruined the overall sense of this beautiful bay, just like Olmedo's beautiful blond hair went bald. That annoying guy was right - the camp was so crude that he couldn't even stand it.
Annan urged Ingrid and Ogre to go to Breeze City again. This time they had tasks: more refugees and craftsmen; spreading news about Star Moon Bay to attract free people and caravans; investigation The Gama and Diatra families.
After they set off, Annan asked the guard captain to train soldiers for Xingyue Bay.
The guard captain selected fifty young adults from the people, which may sound like a lot, but after training and elimination, there may only be a dozen left.
A dozen guards are enough to protect a village with a population of several hundred from attacks by bandits, kobolds, lizardmen and other groups, but it is not enough for Xingyue Bay. Annan's enemies are Skaven, Gnolls, and possibly Gorma Diatra.
The fifty reserve guards added lunch to the two meals a day for other territorial residents and provided meat. Annan also added additional queue training after seeing the messy queue.
We don’t expect these thin people who were refugees a month ago to become soldiers, but a well-disciplined guard is enough to boost morale.
Annan accidentally discovered that the Guards Captain had taught the City Guards’ breathing techniques to the reservists. He hesitated and asked, “Can this be taught?”
The Guards Captain said respectfully: "You and the Lord of the City are close friends."
Annan looked at the noisy people standing in queue in the distance: "Can they become warriors?"
"With all due respect...it is difficult for these people to give birth to warriors."
Warriors are synonymous with low-level, reckless and rude professionals - or to put it euphemistically, warriors are the cornerstone of professionals.
But even with a huge number of warriors there is only a one percent chance.
Only those children who start rigorous training from a young age have the opportunity to become professionals when they reach adulthood. Although the stories of those warriors' counterattacks have endured for a long time, they are only spread because of their rarity.
These malnourished refugees have no chance to become professionals, and the breathing method will only increase their physical strength.
The warrior's breathing method corresponds to the caster's meditation, breathing in a special rhythm, and practicing to strengthen the body. So in addition to breathing techniques, there are also basic sword postures.
“Then it’s okay to practice breathing while cutting wood?” Annan felt that just raising and swinging the sword was a waste of energy.
"That's right..."
As a result, the citizens who had not yet had time to be happy about becoming guards picked up the ax again and started doing the same work as before.
Annan returned to the big house, and his eyes became worried as he looked at the empty tree branch birdcage beside the table.
The Osulund leader has not replied for many days. They will not come here...
Not long after, the guard captain came over with a boy. Annan still remembers him. His younger brother is the youngest citizen of Xingyue Bay.
"I saw this guy taming a mad bull with my own eyes. He has the potential to become a knight." The guard captain suggested Annan train Losi. He is just the right age, and he might have a chance to become a professional. One percent chance. "Are you willing?" Annan asked Losi's opinion.
"Of course! Master Jack!" the excited Losi said incoherently.
Losey started as a knight's retinue and was handed over to Captain Tedder by the captain of the bodyguard.
The servants need to take care of the knights' daily life and clean their horses, just like servants. However, because Luo Xi is a citizen of Annan, he does not have to do this. He follows the knights on patrol around Xingyue Bay all day long.
A series of ugly wooden houses were built in the camp in preparation for the upcoming new residents.
It is getting colder day by day in the north in late autumn, but it has not snowed anymore, and the fire crow still has not brought a letter from "sisters". On the third day after the ogre and Ingrid set out, Annan took a piece of the ogre's hair and released the summoning spell.
A rift in space emerged. Annan saw the ogre and the surprised Ingrid. Behind him, he saw the uneasy new residents and the rooftops.
"It's too extravagant for you to do this..."
Ingrid, who didn't know what was going on, shook her head. Annan told her that he could open two such "portals" a day, which made the young assistant ask in surprise. Is Annan a master?
The unexpected gain from this was the emotions of the new subjects - they thought they were being exiled or becoming slaves. After all, how could the King of the North let lowly refugees like them become subjects, so this Refugees have been escaping for a while... Now they just want to laugh at those who escaped and be glad they didn't join. With their poor knowledge, they knew that this portal was more valuable than their combined total.
The rustling new residents gradually set foot on the land of Xingyue Bay. The knights maintained order and allocated houses, while the old residents watched the excitement from the outside.
There are 550 people in this group, but 50 of them are recruited craftsmen. Ingrid said there were originally 700 people, but a lot of them have gone away these days...
Annan suggested that the next batch of refugees should be shown "The Fall of the Master's Tower" first. "There is no next batch..." Ingrid said, "These are the last refugees."
Winter is coming, and there are basically no refugees in the wild in the winter in the north...lucky They hid in towns and unfortunately died in the wild.
Ingrid finally stepped into the teleportation array, while the ogre was left behind in Breeze City.
The batch of charcoal has not been shipped yet.
In the last few minutes of the second portal, Annan saw Olmedo appearing across the rift.
"Xingyue Bay looks... very simple. You were right to recruit craftsmen." Olmedo commented on the camp with Annan's back, "Is this how you sent them out of the dungeon? How did you do it?" < br>
Annan didn’t know either, and could only blame it on the magic of the warlock.
"What happened to Gemma Diatra? Did you arrange it?" Annan asked her.
"I am not qualified to order a family of the Twelve Kings of the North. This guy is here for you. The information is with Ingrid."
Olmedo then said calmly. Admitted that she did want to use Gema to allow Annan to develop the territory.
Annan nodded and said to the ogre next to him:
"Remember, if something happens to me, Olmedo will be the murderer."
