Placing the teacup down, Leo Ray surveyed everyone below while continuing, “All tasks for the middle teams remain unchanged, each will just perform their duty.”
“Yes, my Lord!”
Hearing this, the eight commanders and Head Chef Rudy from the lower seats stepped forward uniformly and respectfully clasped their fists.
“Very well.”
Nodding his head in satisfaction, looking down at the nine neatly standing figures, Leo Ray continued, “Of course, the daily garrison work within the territory must remain a priority.
Each middle team must ensure that there is a fully armed squad at their respective posts at all times, and once an unexpected situation arises, they must promptly switch to combat mode.”
“Rest assured, my Lord. We have already coordinated drills for various emergency situations yesterday.”
A crisp sound rang out as the half-elf commander Belinda Wright, who had the longest seniority within the territory, responded with a slight bow.
“Very well, when I am not around and enemies attack, the four ranged middle teams within the territory will be under Belinda’s coordination, while the other four melee middle teams will be handed over to Roger.”
After a slight hesitation, Leo Ray immediately commanded.
During the previous slaughter of the Half-Orc Corps at the narrow pass, he had noticed.
As a half-elf archer commander, Belinda’s commanding ability was quite remarkable.
Additionally, since the half-elves inherit the elf tribe’s affinity for nature, they’re even more comfortable fighting in forests, making them naturally perfect for the role.
As the commander of the heavy armor guards squad, Roger, due to his age, calm demeanor, and rich combat experience, was the most suitable candidate among all melee commanders.
Thus, Leo Ray made such arrangements.
“In compliance, my Lord!”
On the other side, the long-haired Belinda and gray-haired Roger stepped forward simultaneously, bowing respectfully.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray’s gaze fell on the old steward, and then he said, “As for Warren and the four female servants, they will continue assisting the barracks with sewage treatment magic array construction and cleaning work within the Lord’s Mansion.”
“Yes, my Lord, rest assured.”
Hearing this, the old steward performed a standard gentleman’s bow, respectfully responding.
“Sean, for now, you all will be responsible for helping Head Chef Rudy build the kitchen. I will investigate the distribution of Azure Pterosaurs around Cyan Town today, and as soon as possible, resolve the mount issue.”
Meanwhile, Leo Ray raised his steaming teacup, speaking to the Pterosaur Knight Captain.
“As you command, my Lord!”
Sean, clad in shining plate armor, immediately bowed in response.
“Lastly, Joshua and Orion will continue refining Tier 2 Qi Condensation Pills. Additionally, the materials needed for Tier 3 magic medicines were almost collected recently.
Particularly the Star Pattern Magic Energy Pill, which is our current top priority. I hope both of you can quickly improve your refining abilities, laying the foundation for even more advanced magic medicines.”
Leaning slightly, Leo Ray looked down at the respectful noble alchemists and instructed further.
“By your command, my Lord!”
On the other side, Joshua and Orion simultaneously bowed in response.
“As for the other powerhouses, follow me to Cyan Town later.”
Finishing the fragrant tea in his cup, Leo Ray clapped his hands, signaling everyone to disperse.
After this, Leo Ray arrived at the small door on the western side of the territory.Surrounding him were Taylor, Scarlett, Abigail, Amelia, and Bianca White.
It goes without saying that Taylor was at Tier 5 level, while Scarlett, Abigail, and Amelia had all reached the peak of Tier 3.
As for Bianca White, who served as the mount, she had achieved a Seven-Star Tier 3 level.
“Alright, let’s get going.”
Nodding at the people beside him, Leo Ray immediately straddled the fluffy, soft white giant wolf in front of him.
In an instant, amidst the astonished gazes of the gate guards, they turned into a blur and disappeared on the grass in front of the city gate.
Accompanied by a gust of wind, Leo Ray and the others, dressed in Illusion Cloaks, headed straight to the secret chamber of Sanders’ Trading Conference upon arriving in Cyan Town, where the crowd had just started to gather.
“My Lord, here’s the situation.”
As soon as Leo Ray had taken a seat, Linda, who had been waiting there, immediately began, “After my investigation, this Tier 3 female servant, who came from Cyan Town, is simply a child from a common civilian family and has been away from home for more than ten years.”
“In the absence of any background, it is not easy to advance to the Tier 3 powerhouse rank by oneself, and after numerous selections, she became a close servant to the noble princess.”
“I see.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly and then asked, “How much do we know about her specific information now?”
“My Lord, this female servant is named Celeste Reiss, and her occupation is a Sword Dancer, a physical profession that lies between an assassin and a swordsman.”
On the other side, Linda continued while rearranging her hair behind her head, “Currently, Celeste is attending to Ariel Watson. During this time, she returned home once but didn’t see her long-lost family members.”
“Oh? Why is that?”
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but show a puzzled expression, asking, “Isn’t her house in Cyan Town?”
“It is true, but there is something that My Lord doesn’t know.”
As Linda respectfully bowed again, she continued, “According to my investigation, years ago, when the former City Lord was in power, he cooperated with Magnet Town, located northwest of Cyan Town beneath the Hundred Ranges, to develop an ore vein, and relocated a large number of civilians for mining work, including Celeste’s family.”
“So that’s what happened.”
Upon hearing this, a thoughtful expression appeared on Leo Ray’s face.
Leo Ray had heard reports about Magnet Town from Linda before.
This town, about a day and a half by carriage from Cyan Town, is located at the foot of the Hundred Ranges.
Just like the more distant Golin City, it is a small mining town mainly engaged in ore extraction, with a scale nearly the same as Cyan Town.
It is also the nearest large town in the northern region of Cyan Town.
“Furthermore, it is said that our residents in Cyan Town often suffer from discrimination from the local residents of Magnet Town, making their lives very difficult.”
Then, Linda added with a bow.
“In that case, let’s go to Magnet Town then.”
With this thought, Leo Ray stretched his muscles and leisurely said to his subordinates beside him, “After all, I am now the Lord of Cyan Town, and I cannot let the residents under my jurisdiction be oppressed by others.”
“By your command, My Lord!”
On the other side, the subordinates saluted, speaking in unison.
