Chapter 341: Transport route

Upon Vader's departure, Carter leaned towards the king and asked, ”Your Highness, do you have any idea who sent those people here?”

”If we exclude the church, the person who possessed the pills would be Timothy Garcia already keeps her distance frohly unlikely she would still care aboutthem, it is much more likely to be Tie army away from the capital, that does not ainst me”

It was lucky that the attackers hidden a their bodies with gunpowder Had they blown up in the croo months' effort would have been wasted

Roland was not worried that any so-called ”suicide squad” his brother dispatched would have harale was out, he had an escort of at least ten bodyguards with him at all times, and for additional protection wore a God's Punish firearms, even a witch extraordinaire would have difficulty approaching hiroup of people with berserker pills

In the short time since he had assumed the role of a Feudal Lord, less than a year, he found that his un this role, an incident such as this would have left hiiven way and he would have been at a coh he felt somewhat anxious earlier, he was still able to assume a calm expression and a composed demeanor

The reason for this change was because he had faith that his guards would put themselves in harm's way for hiardless of the peril they faced Furthermore, it was forbidden for him to lose any self control, as he was the focus of thethis, it shocked him that he would think so far…

”Round up the people from the missionary mission and ask them the specifics of the recruitment process” Roland turned towards Barov and said, ”I need to knohere those people boarded the sailboats”

”Yes, Your Highness” said the city hall's Priloomy expression on his face He probably hadn't expected his subordinates, whoe blunder He felt that his dignity had been completely besmirched by this

”You shouldn't criticize them too harshly either You can decide what to do with the out”

After all the refugees h the checkpoint, Roland returned to his office in the castle This tiroup was a particularly nice surprise—On the southern border were a large nued Eagle City and Clearwater Port, while the fields around the city had been abandoned On top of that, the fluctuating weather this year had caused the temperatures in various areas of Greycastle to plu day by day, and the price of slaves had reduced by half

As long as he could establish a reliable passageway for transport, he would be able to draw an unending nuh the western border—In actuality, when the refugees heard how developed Border Toas, and that it was actively trying to recruit them, a sizable number decided to set off towards the town on their own That was the report given to hiroup

However, the greatest difficulty would be establishi+ng a passageway for it

During the month of the demon, all land traffic was halted by the sheer volu the Redwater River as the only method of transport The only boat that could travel the river was Little Tohich wouldn't budge without the help of a witch Just this boat would be vastly incapable of transporting everyone If he wanted shi+ps sailing the ay at all times, he would have to invest in the construction of at least 20 sailboats capable of sailing inland

An apt example of the situation he faced would be the difficulties the old royals they had brought with theees; the rest was used to hire boats and pay for housing arrangements for personnel At the moment, less than 400 people had arrived in Border Tohile the other 3,000 orin Willon, Silver City, and Fallen Dragon Ridge for shi+ps to transport them inland

Because they were aware of the conditions in the western region, various captains had raised their prices to insanely high levels The fees for the 3,000 plus people would be already as high as that of the large-scale rescue operation they had previously held in the capital Roland, after giving the situation a moment's contemplation, decided that it would be wise to send a letter requesting assistance to Margaret's Chao so far as to give hi

However, if he was truly dedicated to cutting down his expenses, he knew that he would have to build his own shi+p As of now, the quality of reinforced steel and ceer, sturdier inland shi+ps with those ine for propulsion, the shi+p would serve as the groundwork of the transportation industry within the Redwater River

After he finished dinner in his office, Barov knocked on the door, opened it, and said, ”Your Highness, I have more or less ascertained the situation”
