The news of the border victory spread rapidly in Oro City. This city, which had just recovered from the incident of the ancient god believers half a year ago, could now welcome the joy of victory.

During those days of heavy snow and blocked the mountains, people had been speculating that a large number of Rioluo City garrison troops were mobilized to the south. It was estimated that being able to dispatch so many soldiers at once was not a good thing.

Many people speculated, but most didn't dare to speak out. It wasn't until the news of the war on the border reached the city that people began to react...

The enemy actually chose to take such a long detour to attack the southern part of the empire, and among them was the member of the Golden Group who was known as the leader of the desert "Hydralisk" by the Adak merchants. He was a real demon who killed people without blinking an eye.

According to the Adak merchant...

You can encounter bandits in the desert, as they often just rob you of your belongings.

Of course, there are still some people who would rob women, but in the customs of the Adak people, women are private property. Except for those extremely vicious bandits or those who have no women in the tribe, most people would not bother to rob women, because this would make them lose face among their companions, and even if they hold each other to sleep, it would still cause criticism from others!

But if you encounter a 'Hydralisk' it's a different story, they kill everything and steal everything.

The Golden Group has no beliefs, and the only thing that drives them is profit. It is strange that such a disorganized team can attract many capable people to join, which makes it even more lawless.

He could probably do anything with the cities he hadn't conquered...

At the time, many city residents were terrified and even considered relocating...

But where can I move to?

The north was in the midst of a fierce war, and other regions were living under oppression in order to increase supplies for the war. However, Oro City barely avoided conscription due to various problems.

When you think about it this way, Oro City is actually better.

After struggling for a few days, I finally got the news of my victory!!

How can we not cheer?

Countless people in various taverns were happily discussing the news they had heard from various channels, which was the most suitable topic to talk about while drinking in the cold winter.

"Let me tell you, the Earl is truly remarkable. He knew almost from the beginning of the war that the enemy would harass our soldiers day and night, and then he pretended to have fallen into their trap and was helpless... until he lured the enemy into the valley."

Tsk tsk~

The man drank another glass and his face began to turn red.

After a loud burp, he continued slowly:

"By the time the enemy had all entered the valley, they had pursued us very deep into the valley because they were so eager to capture the Earl. Others even thought they could seize our artillery to facilitate the subsequent siege... Alas, I never thought of that." He sighed.

"The explosion shook the mountains and the sea, and the trees trembled. I could hear it even from my home."

A group of people burst into laughter...

"Just blow it. It's a wonder you can hear it with such a strong wind that day."

"Anyway, I heard it!!"

The swaying of his obese body became a source of much laughter in the pub...

However, in a corner of the tavern where no one was paying attention, a woman in a thick sheepskin coat was sitting by and listening attentively.

Sean Weigel, the lord of Oro City, has been in the limelight recently. The whole city is talking about how powerful he is. Especially some residents who originally belonged to his town are even more happy. Wherever they go, they will show off what the earl in the town was like.

Only a newcomer like me who just arrived in Oro City didn't feel anything...

However, the fact that he was able to defeat the Desert Golden Group shows that this earl does have some abilities, at least he should be very talented in commanding the army.

It’s quite impressive.

only……

How strange that this name is so similar to a hunter I've met!

The girl ordered another glass of hot wine, and her pink hair was tucked under her hood and exposed...

………………

On the Earl's side, Sean seemed much more low-key compared to the people's admiration for him.

At his call, most of the nearby nobles sent their retainers to lead troops, and some even came in person. If Oro City fell, it would be difficult for them to protect themselves, so they all sent troops here.

Now these teams can only stay on the border to clean up the battlefield. Almost 20,000 troops died in the valley. If they are not dealt with in time, the passage will be unusable. It is an important source of border tax revenue for Oro City, as well as various imported goods.

Although the war was won, there is still room for development in the future. Directly destroying the trade route between the two places will probably cut off the income from that section in the future. Moreover, according to Joseph, it will probably take more than half a year or even a year to process all the rubble.

Sean originally wanted to ask the wood elf Caitlin to come and help, but unfortunately, after sending the letter to Shanggu Town, Caitlin didn't come...

Perhaps she didn't want to leave the town, or perhaps the baron of the town didn't want more people to know about this matter. In any case, the news there was left unresolved.

Without the help of the tree spirits, the progress of moving the stones will only be slower, so Sean needs to discuss a way of business cooperation with the nobles in other towns... and he also received a disturbing report in the news about the post-war handling work on the border.

The silver-haired ranger girl who finally rushed to the gate was not found among the corpses. Many people were crushed to a bloody mess by huge rocks, and some were even blown apart by explosives. It was difficult to identify who was who.
