And so, after a thrilling and rapid journey,
In no time, the group successfully crossed the Demonic Shadow Forest and the western river, arriving at Cyan Town, located on a plain about 10 kilometers away.
Of course, before entering the city, Leo Ray had already made Bianca White change back into her human form.
He also gave her an Illusion Cloak to conceal her distinctly wolfish ears and large tail.
Afterwards, passing by the bustling streets, the group of nine went straight to the City Lord Mansion at the center of the city without further ado.
At this time, Linda, Mason Banks, Rhizoma Drynariae, and the four Defense Army Battalion Commanders were already waiting in front of the heavily guarded mansion.
“My Lord, you’re here!”
Seeing the figures of Leo Ray and the others, Linda immediately led the six in a respectful salute and ushered Leo Ray into the City Lord Mansion.
Stepping through the towering gate of the mansion, what first met the eyes was a neatly manicured garden with many valuable flowers native to the Coldflame Kingdom.
At a glance, all that could be seen was a colorful, picturesque scene, and the faint scent of flowers drifted through the air.
In the very center of the garden, there was also an artistically designed fountain depicting a goddess holding a water jug, gently trickling water.
In short, the entire scene felt like stepping into a beautiful park.
It was obvious that the former City Lord had put a lot of effort into the garden while also cutting off resources for his own gain.
“Rhizoma Drynariae, what is the situation with the selection of the guard corps and the recruitment of new soldiers?”
Walking along a beautifully crafted stone path, Leo Ray asked the middle-aged commander of the Defense Army standing beside him.
“My Lord! The selection of the Guard Corps has been completed!”
On the other side, Rhizoma Drynariae, holding a helmet in his arms, quickly responded, “After my careful selection, five elite squads have been formed.
Among them, there are three Light Infantry, one Heavy Infantry, and an Archer Squad.
The average strength of these soldiers is around Tier 1 Five-star.
Commanders above the Squad Leader level are experienced Tier 2 locals.
Currently, the defense of the City Lord Mansion is handled by these five elite squads.”
After a short pause, Rhizoma Drynariae continued, “As for the recruitment of new soldiers, it’s going very smoothly. As of today, over 1000 new recruits have joined, and their training is being accelerated.
These new soldiers can be added to two ordinary Defense Army battalions and can also form an additional 500-strong Defense Army Reserve Team.”
“So that means that the current total number of Defense Army soldiers in Cyan Town has reached 3000?”
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray quickened his pace and waved his hand, “Let’s go to the equipment storage in the mansion first.”
At this time, the castle gate not far away was already within reach.
Because the entire City Lord Mansion was essentially a small stone castle,
The location of the equipment storage was right next to the main hall on the first floor of the castle.
Upon entering the heavily fortified equipment storage, Leo Ray found that the vast room was almost empty.
“I apologize, my Lord.”
At this moment, Rhizoma Drynariae, with an embarrassed look on his face, hurriedly clenched his fist and said, “Due to the large increase in new soldiers, all the spare equipment in the storage has been distributed.
In addition, the recent tense border war between the Coldflame Kingdom and Saint Night Kingdom has caused a shortage of materials such as copper and iron, so we haven’t had time to resupply.”
On the other hand, the four Defense Army Battalion Commanders also couldn’t help but sigh in disappointment.
The spare equipment left by the former City Lord was scarce and mostly outdated weapons and armor.
As for quality, it wasn’t even worth mentioning.
Originally, the former City Lord only covered one-third of the cost for their Tier 2 equipment, not to mention the ordinary soldiers’ gear.
“It’s fine, it’s not even a problem for us.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray smiled lightly and slowly walked to the center of the storage room.
Immediately afterward, he felt a slight movement in his heart.
The next second, a large number of various types of equipment appeared out of thin air,
And they were neatly arranged on a series of display cabinets and weapon racks around the room.
In no time, what was an empty room now bustled with an abundance of brand new weapons and armor.
There were also many Tier 3 equipment pieces, twinkling with an array of colors, lighting up the entire room.
Seeing this scene, Taylor and the others, who had long been accustomed to Leo Ray’s extravagance, naturally didn’t need to say anything.
Linda and Mason Banks, who had been shocked by Leo Ray’s feats in the small grove, were somewhat calmer.
While Rhizoma Drynariae and the four Defense Army Battalion Commanders, on the other hand, were left dumbfounded, hardly believing their eyes. Although they had witnessed Leo Ray’s remarkable actions previously,
Such grandiosity is undoubtedly a significant refresh of their understanding and acceptance!
“Here are 4000 sets of Tier 2 equipment of various types, enough for all ordinary soldiers to change into, and an additional 500 sets of Tier 3 equipment to properly equip the soldiers of the five Guard Corps.”
Under Rhizoma Drynariae’s astonished gaze, Leo Ray smiled lightly and said. Without a doubt, after Leo Ray’s battle against the Half-Orcs, the full equipment upgrade of several direct squads, the Werewolves, and the Half-Elf
Reserve Team,
And with the addition of new equipment brought by the Half-Elves temporary garrison in the territory,
By upgrading the spoils from these battles and old equipment, Leo Rays equipment storage undoubtedly reached a new level.
Therefore, providing this batch of equipment was naturally a piece of cake for him.
“By the way, Rhizoma Drynariae, you and the others are still using Tier 3 equipment, right?”
Immediately after, as if recalling something, Leo Ray waved his hand again. Then, over ten pieces of Tier 4 equipment suitable for Rhizoma Drynariae and the Battalion Commanders appeared before everyone.
Since upgrading Tier 2 equipment had a small possibility of becoming Tier 4,
And Leo Ray had previously upgraded a batch of Half-Orc Tier 3 equipment,
It was just enough to meet the equipment requirements of Rhizoma Drynariae and the others.
On the other hand, looking at the Tier 1+ weapons and armor in front of them,
Those who had just come to their senses, Rhizoma Drynariae and the others, once again fell into an uncontrollable state of stupefaction, struggling to remove themselves.
Undoubtedly, in just a few minutes,
With his extravagant actions, the Lord before them had twice refreshed their concept of understanding and acceptance!
