Chapter 53: The day the pirates march, is when the reinforcements arrive
There was no way, even if it was just a random fabrication, Arthur had to find a way to fool this army that appeared out of thin air. Although it felt embarrassing to deceive Karina, Arthur would not cheat Baibao anyway.
The capsule system was revealed.
After all, this is his most important secret besides his identity as a time traveler.
Ever since, Arthur's great deception technique began, and from his mouth, the figure of an unscrupulous and mysterious old man gradually emerged in Karina's mind.
According to Arthur, his teacher was very mysterious. He used a power that he could not understand at all to help him learn various combat skills and magic, which he could use beyond the next level. Moreover, his mysterious teacher was also a master.
A level blacksmith and pharmacist, Arthur also learned this knowledge from his teacher.
As for the army this time, Arthur could ask for help from his teacher, but his unscrupulous teacher would never agree easily. If he couldn't come up with something to honor him, he might get nothing.
Let's talk about the issue of filial piety. What Arthur's teacher likes most is gold coins. If he can produce enough gold coins, then sending troops and so on will not be a problem at all.
"You actually have such a hobby of liking gold coins. Could it be that your teacher, Arthur, is a giant dragon?" After Arthur finished speaking, Karina immediately imagined the appearance of a greedy dragon. After all, in this world,
There are so many professions that can be mastered in the world, and there are races that are greedy and like gold coins, so there are no other options except dragons.
"I don't know about this. Anyway, in my eyes, he is just an old man with a white beard." Arthur shrugged. It was all fabricated out of thin air anyway. It's up to Karina to think whatever she wants.
For Arthur now, as long as Karina believes that this teacher of hers really exists, after all, this will eliminate her doubts. If she does any amazing feats in the future, she can also overthrow them.
On that unfounded master.
"Well, whether your teacher is a dragon or not, I think Messiah will save you."
Yes, for Karina, it doesn't matter who Arthur's teacher is. If she only needs to spend some gold coins to get the Messiah through the difficulties, then Karina would rather go bankrupt!
After all, you must know that no matter how many gold coins you have, it can't be worth a person's life, nor can it be worth the city you love so much, so Karina has made up her mind to exchange gold coins for soldiers.
At that moment, Karina didn't even hesitate, and directly transferred 500,000 gold coins from the city lord's inner treasury, and said that if these gold coins were not enough, Arthur could ask her for more at any time.
He is truly worthy of being the Messiah's city lord. He is indeed very rich. Five hundred thousand gold coins is not a small amount, but Karina actually just used her personal pocket to get it done.
Arthur didn't talk nonsense about this, and directly asked Karina to find an empty warehouse, face these gold coins alone, and receive the gold coins into the treasure bag system.
But having said that, the treasure bag system's practice of only accepting gold coins is really annoying. Just paper-level exchanges require so many gold coins, so how much will more advanced exchanges cost in the future?
?You won’t be crushed to death by gold coins by then, right?
Well, now is not the time to think about such long-term issues. When Karina saw half a million gold coins disappearing out of thin air, she felt more confident. It seems that Arthur was right. She can control space at this stage.
For magic, there is no doubt that only the dragon clan has continued from ancient times to this day. After all, the legendary space magic has long been lost in the long river of time, and existing humans are simply unable to master this series of magic.
, I have to say it is a very sad thing.
"The teacher said that when the pirates march to the Messiah, reinforcements will arrive. Before that, we just need to wait quietly."
"Well, then when the time comes, I will have to rely on your help."
"Don't worry, leave it to me!"
Next, Arthur and Karina studied for a while about the battle plan after the pirates attacked. After all, the troops summoned by Arthur could only be commanded by Arthur himself. Although it was the first time to enter the battle, there was no room for it at this moment.
Arthur flinched and had to bite the bullet!
With Arthur's army as a new force, the Security Knights and the ordinary city defense troops will be greatly relieved. Moreover, Arthur also has his own set of ideas in his heart. After all, he can summon troops at any time, so to the pirates
Some surprises should be okay, right?
However, these plans in Arthur's mind must be adjusted according to the actual situation during the war. The plan is not perfect now, and the rest can only be discussed when the pirates actually attack the city.
After the battle plan was finalized, Arthur said goodbye to Karina and left the castle. Regarding the pirate siege, he still wanted to go home and talk to Cecily and the others. After all, this was also very important.
"Pirates are attacking the city... So Arthur, you already know." When Arthur found Lisbeth and talked about it at Cecily's house, no one showed any surprised expressions.
It seems that he already knows everything. Well, he is the only one who knows nothing.
"What are you hiding this from me?" Arthur's head was full of black lines, and he completely didn't understand everyone's intention of not telling him this.
"Seeing that you go out early and come back late every day in practice, we think it's better for you to just relax and improve your strength. As for the pirate siege, it has nothing to do with you." Cexily hesitated for a moment before speaking.
came the answer.
"It doesn't matter? The Messiah is also my home, okay? How could this have nothing to do with me? And Sexili, you are about to go to the battlefield, right? Are you really ready to wake up?"
Arthur's expression was a bit ugly. What do you mean it has nothing to do with me? You are under so much pressure, haven't you ever thought of talking to me? Am I so unworthy of reliance?
"No... Arthur, don't get me wrong." Seeing that Arthur was in a bad mood, Lisbeth said quickly. She didn't want Arthur to misunderstand anything because of this.
"Actually, everyone doesn't want you to take risks. Although you already have strong strength, you are not a match for those pirates after all. The last time you went to sea with the city lord, it was enough to scare us. We don't want anything to happen to you.
Do you know?"
"this……"
Lisbeth's words made Arthur speechless. Indeed, looking at everyone's worried eyes, Arthur understood that everyone was doing it for his own good, but he might really sit back and watch the Messiah's crisis.
What?
