Chapter 111 Recruitment
Chapter 111 Recruitment
Lorian was wrong.
When he listened to Cecilia's explanation, he was actually more accepting of Cecilia's point of view.
What Cecilia wrote on the paper were the exact words from the notes the system gave her, without any changes.
Only when people think and read independently can they have their own understanding and insights.
As for magic, it still depends on "understanding".
When the magic level is low, "understanding" can help a magician quickly improve his strength and leave other magicians behind.
The "understanding" at this time is able to take shortcuts.
For example, just like Cecilia taught Lorian, Lorian passively accepted what Cecilia understood.
It saves time and also improves the magic level.
Of course, Cecilia did not tamper with the manuscript.
Every magician here can read the manuscripts with great concentration because they themselves are pursuing the improvement of magic, otherwise they would not be in the Magician's Guild in broad daylight.
When I learned that this document would help me improve my level, especially the theoretical methods and systems.
Some magicians who have finished reading the manuscript even feel that their magical abilities have improved more than they did in the previous year.
The magicians behind came here purely because of Lorian's hype. First, his curiosity was aroused, and then the benefits of this thing were hinted at. Naturally, everyone looked at it very seriously after getting it.
After distributing all the manuscripts, Cecilia came to Lorian.
Lorian had finished counting the names by now, and it seemed that Cecilia had something to say to him, so he hurried back to the office.
I thought Cecilia was going to tell him that he shouldn't mind his own business. "I should go back, or Valken will come looking for me again."
Lorian understood.
He felt that every time Cecilia came to see him, it was like she was having an affair, so he had to be sneaky every time, for fear that Valken would follow them.
But when I think about it, it is true.
Cecilia has to change her identity every time she comes now, and Valken will be exposed sooner or later.
The two of them had no idea that their plan had already been exposed to Valken.
Cecilia left in a very high-profile manner. After all, many people in the guild saw her when she came.
Even though she left in a high-profile manner, she didn't attract much attention from magicians.
These people are now focusing all their attention on the manuscripts in their hands.
Cecilia didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
That's fine too.
As Lorian sent Cecilia to the carriage, he said, "Don't worry, I will go to the Ark Guild in person to hand over the manuscript to Flora."
Cecilia now trusted Lorian to do the job, and just gave him one more instruction, "Take some time to read the manuscript a few more times."
Lorian understood what Cecilia meant, "Okay, I understand..."
Before he could finish the word "Your Highness", he met Cecilia's gaze and quickly changed his words, "Aya."
The carriage started moving slowly and the two said goodbye.
Lorian stood at the door of the guild for a long time, and only entered the guild after the carriage completely disappeared from his sight.
Before Cecilia reached the bedroom, she had already seen Valken, who looked anxious, and she could only sigh that something was wrong.
He immediately smiled, "Oh, isn't this Valken? What do you want to talk to me about?"
Valken choked.
What could he want from His Highness? Wasn't he afraid that His Highness would sneak out again?
As a result, no matter how hard he tried, when he arrived in the morning, the prince was no longer in the bedroom.
He also knew where His Highness would most likely go.
But he also knew that he couldn't go and look for her, as going would probably cause trouble for His Highness.
If you don't find the answer, you will get anxious.
He hasn't had a good night's sleep since the last time His Highness fell into his arms.
We all know that Petra is safe now, and Her Highness will not be hurt even if something unexpected happens.
But the scene lingered, as if engraved in his mind.
In the end, he just stood not far outside His Highness's bedroom, hoping to be the first to see His Highness returning.
"I left His Majesty's residence too late last night and didn't come to see you. I was planning to come and tell you today about what His Majesty told me yesterday, but I didn't expect you weren't in the palace."
Cecilia's heart skipped a beat. "When did you come?"
Valken's Adam's apple rolled, "I just got here not long ago."
Cecilia then breathed a sigh of relief, and she said that if Valken knew that she was not in the bedroom, he would definitely look for her all over Petra.
"Come in and talk."
Cecilia already knew much of what Valken was going to say.
"Your Majesty is now planning to expand the army, but few people in Petra responded. Your Majesty is planning to recruit troops from the south."
Cecilia frowned, noticing that Valken used different words before and after.
"There are few people responding from Petra, so we have to recruit soldiers from the south?"
Conscription is a compulsory order in the Kingdom of Anatolia.
Gallup didn't use a strong approach in Petra, but instead used coercive measures in the south?
Life is already difficult for the people in the southern part of the Kingdom of Anatolia, and now they are to be separated from their wives and children?
How can this make sense?
Valken felt that Cecilia seemed to be angry, "Your Highness, isn't it good to expand the army?"
Cecilia calmed down.
Now the expansion of the army is inevitable.
The people on the other side of the Wakadi Mountains are still in dire straits. As long as Petra does not send troops to support them, all the towns on the other side of the Wakadi Mountains can only rely on their own garrisons to resist.
The Wakadi Mountains serve as a natural line of defense between the royal family and the demons, and the royal family has set up border defenses there for many years. However, as time goes by, the number of troops stationed in the Wakadi Mountains is not as large as it was at the beginning.
When the number of troops stationed there decreased, local civilians either fled or took up arms in order to protect themselves.
Cecilia closed her eyes in pain.
After all, a demon invasion is no better than a human civil war.
At least human civil war can be negotiated.
What can be negotiated if the demons invade?
Although vampires and wizards can speak and think, there is no rule of negotiation and ceasefire among the demons themselves.
They have only one principle - speak with strength and fight violence with violence.
In other words, it is possible to negotiate with the demons, but the prerequisite is to use force to tell them who is the boss.
But if we can win by force, why bother with negotiations?
"Since the South has conscripted soldiers, we can't favor one over the other. Should the North and the East also conscript soldiers?"
Valken twitched his lips and said, "Your Highness, if we recruit too many soldiers at once, the country can't afford it. I can only say that the next time we recruit soldiers, we will definitely not recruit from the south."
Cecilia sighed.
She actually hoped that there would not be a second military expansion and conscription.
"By the way, when I was in Aslaide City, didn't I hear that many chambers of commerce there invested in some weapons?"
