Chapter 70 An accident happens
In the next half month, the army in the middle route was overwhelming, and countless goblins and kobold clans were wiped out.
The entire operation went surprisingly smoothly. Except for the low-level monster clan, there was almost no trace of any medium or high-level monster clan.
In the logistics camp, the clerk was numbly counting the left ears of a bunch of goblins and kobolds.
At the same time, a steady stream of monster left ears were being transported.
"You'll die if you're busy, and you'll die if you're idle."
Weilin sighed and continued to lie on the flatbed truck covered with straw to leisurely supervise the work.
Since the beginning of the military operation, as an idle idler in the logistics camp, Moira had to arrange a supervisor position for Verin to make him less boring.
After counting the monster's left ears, a scribe came to Verin and reported: "Sir, the statistics are complete. There are 1,327 goblins and 869 kobolds. There is no fraud. They are all genuine professionals.”
"Since there's nothing wrong, just put it in a bag, label it with the unit it belongs to, and put it in the back for safekeeping."
Weilin took the roster presented by the clerk's hands, put it in his pocket, waved his hand and gave him instructions.
"Yes."
The clerk withdrew and began to direct the staff to continue working.
Compared to Weilin's leisurely and comfortable mood, the atmosphere in the central tent of the Knights was very serious.
Medmonkey, the leader of the Sixteenth Knights, looked at the report in his hand and his face became more and more serious. When the officers below saw the face of their leader, they all sat upright, without the usual casualness and freedom.
"Such a large area, covering an area of 100,000 square kilometers, are all goblins and kobold clans, and there is no silver or above." Medmonkey closed the report and said to himself.
"Captain, I'm afraid there is some conspiracy in the Gray Mang Wasteland. We must report it to the police as soon as possible." A middle-aged man sitting in the first place on the left said.
"Theodore, I remember that the last time monsters attacked the western border was because the battle between dragons spread, forcing the monster clan to continuously attack the western defense line."
The first person on the right, the middle-aged man, stood up and replied: "Yes, Captain, after investigation by the Kingdom Investigation Team, the conclusion is what you said."
Suddenly, a silver knight broke into the camp, knelt down on one knee, and reported loudly: "Captain, a gryphon knight has arrived."
"Quickly, let him in." Medmonkey suddenly had a bad premonition and said hurriedly.
Outside the camp, most of the Silver Transcendents, including Verin, looked at the gryphon knight falling from the sky and had a premonition that something big was going to happen.
In border areas, griffon knights will not be used as messengers unless absolutely necessary. This is a default rule.
"Sister Moira, do you know what's going on?"
Verin came to Moira's side, watched the gryphon knight heading towards the command camp, and asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know yet, but these free days are coming to an end." Moira shook her head and said.
In the camp, the Griffin Knight first saluted to show respect to Medmonkey, then took out a shadow stone and placed it in the center of the camp, and then took out a low-level magic crystal as the driving energy for the shadow stone.
"Medermunch, I am Jerome Latin, the governor of the province of Lenza, the commander-in-chief of the western defense line. Hundreds of thousands of monsters attacked the defense lines of the three provinces of Lenza-Ister-Dani, and I ordered you to lead the elite troops to pass by. The Cardro Provincial Teleportation Formation will rush to the rescue immediately. This order has been approved by His Majesty the King."
An old man with a gray beard announced the order without anger or authority.
Medmonkey stood up, beat his chest and saluted, "Yes, Your Excellency."
Later, the energy of the low-level magic crystal was exhausted, and the image of the shadow stone disappeared.
The griffin knight put away the shadow stone and saluted: "Sir, I have to go to the next location, so I'll take my leave first."
"kindness."
After the Griffin Knights left, Medmonkey looked around and issued an order: "Give orders to the left army and right army to assemble here before noon tomorrow."
"Yes."
Everyone responded loudly and then retreated.
In the afternoon, the entire station became busy at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At night, Flora entered Moira's camp, took off her helmet, and placed it casually on the wooden box next to her.
"Flora, what is my father's plan?" Moira finished her prayer, stood up and looked at her friend, asking worriedly.
"The leader's plan is a bit complicated." Flora came to Moira's bedside, lay down on the bed, and said with her eyes closed.
Moira climbed onto the bed and knelt on the head of the bed, put Flora's head on her knees, and gently rubbed her temples.
"Is the entire knight order going to support the defense lines of the three provinces of Lensa, East and Dani, while the noble army stays behind to guard against the surprise attack of the remaining monsters in the Gray Mansions Wasteland?"
Flora felt more relaxed than ever before, changed to a more comfortable position, and replied unhurriedly: "No."
"What do you say?"
"The leader's plan is that all the knight apprentices and ordinary support staff of the knights will stay, and the combat troops and priests will be mixed into the elite noble army to travel lightly."
Moira frowned and said, "So, what my father means is that the remaining noble armies and knights are on guard against the monsters in the Gray Wasteland?"
"That's what the leader means."
"Then if, I mean, if this is the opponent's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, then the Cardro Province doesn't want it?"
"Many adults, including deputy captain Theodore, raised this issue, but the captain convinced us." Flora leaned her head upward and continued.
"How can this be done? Take away all the high-end combat power. If a monster attacks, millions of people in Cardro Province will be exposed to danger. I'm going to persuade him."
Moira stood up suddenly.
"Whoops"
Flora rubbed the back of her head, and then grabbed Moira who was about to leave: "Don't go, the leader is also under great pressure. This is a last resort decision."
"Think about it, if the defense lines of the three provinces of Lensa, East and Dani are breached, hundreds of millions of people in the western region will be exposed to threats. At that time, the legendary strongman of the Gray Wasteland will definitely come to an end."
"So, you gave up on these millions of people by default."
Meeting Moira's gaze, Flora nodded silently.
"You, you..."
"So, I applied to stay." Flora interrupted Moira and said with a smile, "For the sake of the overall situation, the leader and others have to do this, but I can stay."
"The defense lines of the three provinces of Lensa, Ister and Dani are not lacking in low-level combat power. What is lacking are strong men like the captain and the established knights."
"Then I too..."
"You can't stay here. As a Silver Priest, your role is very important." Flora sat up and stared at Moira, and said solemnly, "With you here, many fewer people in the Knights will die."
