[Chapter 189 Refugees and Reinforcements]
As a celestial mage, Medivh often travels to other worlds. Quickly learning new unknown languages is a spell that celestial mages must master.
In addition, Medivh pretended to be a prophet and sent dreams to the heroes he chose some time ago. It can be seen that this powerful guardian also has a deep understanding of how to send his “ideas” into other people’s brains.
As a powerful mage herself, Jaina has a clearer understanding of the difficulty of such things, so she can be sure that Medivh can definitely solve David’s problem.
“That’s a good suggestion, but here comes the question…” David took a sip of juice and looked at Jaina in front of him: “Can you contact Medivh?”
“No.” Jaina shook her head and waved her hands: “The last time I saw Medivh in Silvermoon City, no one knows where he went after that… He may not be in Azeroth anymore.”
David had expected this result: “So… this matter can only be solved by you.”
“No, I mean, if anyone can find Medivh, I think it will be you.” Jaina has been observing David. There are many things she doesn’t understand about the lord of Winter Town. It’s just that she vaguely feels that David seems
to have some strange connection with Azeroth.
So she thinks that if David wants, he may be the only one who can find Medivh with his strange connection with Azeroth.
“Me?”
David thought about it, and it seemed that there was indeed a way to find Medivh, but every time he went there, he disturbed other people’s sleep. If he went there too many times, would he put me on the blacklist of visitors who were not allowed to enter?
After leaving Jaina’s residence, David emphasized that if he couldn’t find Medivh, he would have to ask Jaina for help.
Jaina didn’t refuse, perhaps she was sure that David would find Medivh.
Sitting in his car, David was ready to return to Glamorgan Castle to see if Helen was settled properly? Did Laura do anything weird?
As a result, he just stepped on the accelerator and the car didn’t even speed up when he saw Leon running around the town.
“Leon!”
“Good evening, David!” “What
are you doing?” David noticed that Leon was still dressed in the jacket, but there were a lot of equipment hanging on his belt, mainly magazines.
These were extended-capacity magazines made by Pierre Newton, each of which could hold 100 rounds of bullets.
Because it was equipment with space attributes, it could not be included in the storage props currently produced as mass-produced goods.
“I received a mission, so…” Leon did not hide it and directly showed the magazine hanging on his waist. At the same time, he also showed the two-handed sword in the storage bracelet: “Come to get some weapons and ammunition.”
“Oh~” David guessed in his heart: “What job?”
“The president’s daughter Ashley Graham is missing. The Secret Service received intelligence that someone had seen her near a remote village in Spain. When I arrived at the place, I found that the situation was a bit complicated.” After briefly introducing the situation, Leon asked David if he had seen Krauser?
“Jack has been training a lot recently. I don’t know if he still has the energy to help you… In fact, you can also find someone else.”
“Well, good idea, I’ll ask Arcee!”
“…”
Seeing Leon excitedly running to find Arcee (unlike the ambulance that lived in David’s garage, Arcee had her own residence), David complained in his heart that Leon was really inconsiderate.
He didn’t know that Leon had never thought that Lord Baron of Glamorgan, the Lord of Winter Town, would be interested in going to a remote village to help him find someone. He thought that David, as the ruler, must be very busy, so he didn’t ask David for help.
As for finding Arcee, of course, he saw that Arcee could hide her identity like an ordinary human, and could turn into a vehicle when necessary, and had enough fierce firepower.
Watching Leon walk away, David didn’t chase him and say that he could help, but drove back to his residence and then went to find Laura and Helen.
When he found the two people in the restaurant, Helen was like a curious baby, watching Laura introduce various new things to her.
The gap of more than 3,000 years made Helen not understand many things in the Castle of Glamorgan. In addition, they couldn’t communicate directly using language, so Laura spent more time teaching Helen how to use the various facilities in the Castle of Glamorgan.
From turning on and off the lights, to running water, to bathtubs, shower heads, etc., there are many things that need to be introduced.
When David came back, Laura was introducing Helen to refrigerators and microwaves. David seemed to be able to see mosquito coils in Helen’s eyes…
“Well, you said so much, she can’t understand it all.” Especially when it can’t be described in words, it will be more difficult to understand. “
Anyway, you are free anyway, are you going to sleep after dinner?”
“You can teach her to learn the Brunnian Common Language.”
“I was just teaching her to learn the Brunnian Common Language.”
Laura gestured to Helen next to her, and Helen really said to David in the Brunnian common language: “Welcome home!”
“Oh, you’ve learned it very well!”
Helen in the myth is the daughter of Zeus. In terms of bloodline, Helen is also a demigod, so even after so many years of the Trojan War, Helen is still as beautiful as a flower!
The Helen in front of him should not have demigod blood. But she is very smart and learns things quickly. She has basically memorized everything Laura taught her. At least she is not stumped by some modern facilities in Glamorgan Castle now. After
asking a few questions and finding that Helen already knows how to use various facilities correctly, David knows that he doesn’t have to worry about his daily life. He chatted with the two casually while enjoying his dinner.
By the way, he told David the purpose of looking for Jaina.
“Oh, it’s for the language problem!”
Hearing that David was looking for Jaina to solve the language problem, Laura expressed her support.
No one is sure which worlds will come in the future. If there is such a device that can allow newcomers to master the Brunnian common language immediately, it will not only facilitate communication, but also allow newcomers to better integrate here.
Being in a completely unfamiliar environment with a language that you don’t understand, it’s easy to create a gap.
After dinner, David asked Laura to take Helen to rest. As for Helen’s maid, Elias took her to the room specially prepared for servants to rest.
He himself came to the office: “Okay, let’s cancel the stealth!”
“Tsk, it’s really not fun!” With a crisp voice, Vanessa Van Cleef appeared in the office out of thin air: “When did the lord find me?”
“I noticed it as soon as you came in… and Laura also found it, but she didn’t point it out.” David sat behind the desk and looked at Vanessa, who was full of youthful breath: “You suddenly ran back to find me, is there an emergency?”
Vanessa Van Cleef received an order not long ago to go to the surrounding villages and towns to spread information and find out the surrounding situation.
This was the first time that Vanessa went out alone to perform a mission after her father recognized her ability, so it was not a very dangerous and difficult mission. The rumors she spread were also based on real things that were often done in Winter Town. Even if she didn’t spread them, they would spread in the surrounding villages and towns sooner or later.
Basically, she only needs to go around and come back.
Report intelligence?
She can report to Edwin VanCleef or Eva. This kind of sneaking into the Glamorgan Castle quietly to find the lord must be very important information.
David doesn’t think Vanessa VanCleef’s behavior is just for fun. She was taught by Edwin VanCleef, and Edwin was trained by MI7.
In other words, Vanessa has received relevant training from real agents and intelligence personnel since she was a child. In addition, she comes from a world in the feudal dynasty era and has a very clear understanding of superiors and subordinates. It is impossible for her to make such a joke without any seriousness.
Sneaking into the lord’s residence, if there is no important situation, this behavior alone is enough to be sentenced to a felony!
Sure enough, Vanessa put away her smile and reported several pieces of information to David.
First of all, the refugees currently appearing on the northern plains are actually deliberately created by the nobles of Iron Tree Castle.
“The nobles behind the villages and towns around Winter Town are preparing to launch an attack on Winter Town in the name of refugees and bandits.”
David was stunned. He had learned from Arcee before that when refugees began to appear on the northern plains, he thought it was normal. Who would have thought that there was a black hand behind the refugees? He
lowered his head and thought for a moment, and he understood the thoughts of these nobles: using the name of refugees and bandits would not cause dissatisfaction to His Majesty the King.
Winter Town is indeed His Majesty’s territory, and it is not easy for us nobles to take action directly!
But refugees and bandits are a group of lawless people, and they will not care about the situation of the king’s territory.
Even if Winter Town is really captured by bandits or various supplies are looted, David Baron Glamorgan, as the lord, will be charged with dereliction of duty.
As for failure? For the nobles, failure will not affect them. They can also clean up a group of disobedient civilians and relieve the pressure of wintering in various villages-with fewer people, the consumption of supplies will naturally be less.
No matter how you look at it, this is a plan that is sure to make money!
“That’s a good plan.”
After figuring out the key, David was not worried, but instead looked forward to the robbers coming to his door sooner. In his eyes, these refugees were a population resource that came to him on their own initiative, and an excuse for Winter Town to expand legally.
“Anything else?”
“Snowfield Castle requested support from Marquis Morgan, the lord of Iron Tree Castle, some time ago, and an elite force is already on the way to Snowfield Castle.”
“Oh?”
