When the alien figure appeared at the border of Barron Territory, the atmosphere in the entire Barron Territory became somewhat condensed.
Many experienced citizens have already had a premonition.
According to the customs of previous years, the alien invasion is estimated to have happened recently.
As a result, the three cities became more deserted, with fewer merchants and fewer people shopping. The only thing that changed was that the soldiers were trained more.
There are 3,000 garrison soldiers in Fengrao City, 1,000 soldiers in the left acropolis, and 1,000 soldiers in the right acropolis.
Including the newly formed Dauntless Vanguard, there are 500 people.
This is most of the power William can bring to bear.
He was not planning to recruit peasant soldiers, nor was he planning to call for support from his Uncle Reco.
Because, in addition to these soldiers, he also has three great knights, and a magician whose strength far exceeds that of the great knights.
With the presence of these four people, it is enough to gain a decisive advantage in a war involving thousands of people.
As a result, countless border sentries moved inward, with the three cities as the center, scattered around, and were always on guard.
According to previous cases, the target of the alien invasion was Fengrao City.
They knew that the defensive force of Fengrao City was the strongest and was not comparable to the left and right acropolis, but they still chose to invade Fengrao City.
First of all, Fenghuo City is the richest, after all, the lord's castle is here.
Secondly, they did not take the guarding power of Fengrao City seriously.
In these few days.
Pisius and Guland have become frequent visitors to Black Rock Castle, and new information is sent almost every day.
Traces of alien races were found somewhere today, and tomorrow several nobles will leave Fengrao City with their families and seek refuge in the interior...
William did not stop the nobles who had recently left.
This has been the case in previous years.
Every time there is an invasion by foreign tribes, the great nobles will leave.
When the aliens retreat, the nobles will come back.
Therefore, the most important thing about every living thing is neither strength nor quantity, but adaptability.
Only creatures that can adapt to harsh environments will have the last laugh.
There is no doubt that these nobles who can live comfortably in Barron are very adaptable people.
Two days ago, Uncle Reco wanted to bring troops to support William, but he firmly dissuaded him. During this period, the Martinez Territory was also having a hard time, with bandits running rampant, burning, killing, and looting.
Compared to bandits, William suddenly discovered that the aliens seemed to be kinder.
At least the aliens will not kill on a large scale and for no reason, just like the village of Milforth. They have not been massacred by the aliens for so many years.
Apart from being poor, they also have no death threats.
But then William thought about it, sometimes being 'poor' is more painful than death.
…
On July 4th, the weather was sunny and neither dry nor dry.
The base of magic power is located in the constellation Puppis, and the arc increases by seventeen.
It is advisable to sense magic and build a mage tower.
On this day, Selanie excitedly ran to William's bedroom early in the morning and shook him out of bed. Butler Charlie helplessly guarded the door and ordered the maid to fill up the face wash.
As the chief steward in the castle, Charlie is well aware of Selanne's position in William's heart.
Even if he doesn't want his master to be disturbed, if it's Selani, then it doesn't matter.
"What's wrong, Selanie, why did you get up so early today?"
William rubbed Selanne's head lovingly, washed her face, and suddenly felt refreshed.
Looking up out of the window, the sky was dim and there was no smoke yet.
Normally at this time, Selanie sleeps like a little pig, why is it so abnormal today?
"William, have you noticed it?"
"Huh? What?"
"Magic, the magic is so abundant today, I feel like they are dancing around me."
Carrying Tibbers the little bear, Selanie’s face was full of excitement:
"Since I came to this world, I have never felt such a strong magic power. This feeling is very similar to the lively, restless and noisy feeling in Woweisi."
After hearing Selanne's description, William became interested.
After practicing according to the basic meditation method, William shook his head helplessly after a few minutes.
Sure enough, he is not a mage.
Not to mention feeling the magic dancing around him, William had no idea whether the magic was singing or not.
"Today seems to be a magical tidal surge day, or tidal day for short."
Speaking of which, the calendar of this world is somewhat similar to that of the earth, such as the months and the number of days in each month.
No one knows who created this calendar, but it is used by several major kingdoms.
The name of this calendar is "Magic Calendar".
There are various things to pay attention to every day, such as avoidance of fire, avoidance of water, avoidance of relocation, etc., and even avoidance of laziness...
However, most of these precautions are made up and modified by later generations, and have no practical significance at all. They should be used as conversation topics after dinner.
But there are some special days in the magic calendar, and there are really special precautions.
For example, today is July 4th, Year 2500 of the Magical Calendar.
This day is called the 'Tide Day'. The magic power on this day is more lively than usual and is easier to capture by people with a mage's physique, making cultivation smoother.
"Selanie, since the magic power is more active today, you should stop playing today and practice hard."
"No, no!" Selani hugged the little bear and shook her head:
"Selanie, don't practice, it's so boring. And the magic power is lively and inactive, it has no effect on me, they will dance around me anyway...
It’s just that today’s dance is even more lively, just like the war dance of the Woweisi people, warm and powerful.”
William: "..."
At a young age, he had already learned the Versailles language.
What a language genius.
However, Selani's expression was very serious, without any hint of pride, which made William even more hurt.
Who knows how sad the heart of a magic waste is...
"Okay, okay, you are the best. Our Miss Selani is a magic genius, a great genius!"
"Hehe~ I'm not that good either~"
After washing up, William found Diana. The female mage was dressed very charmingly today. Her slender waist and delicate face made William's eyes shine.
"Because today is a tide day, why don't you dress up?"
"It's not all because of the tide day..."
Diana bowed slightly, lowered her eyebrows, and looked at William secretly, but William was also looking at her, so their eyes met.
There seemed to be a crackle of sparks in the air.
"Is there any other reason? What is it?"
"No, it's nothing." Diana shook her head shyly.
How could she have the nerve to say "because today is the 18th day of knowing you".
In fact, she would dress up carefully every day she came to Black Rock Castle, but today's clothes were particularly bright.
William invited Diana to have breakfast with him, and she silently nodded in agreement.
On the long table, there were bread, butter, jam, cod, rich broth, and a plate of fried vegetables.
After arriving in Barrenland, William asked the kitchen to try cooking. He first made an iron pot of suitable thickness and thickness, and then developed stir-frying.
Thanks to the painstaking efforts of the cook, William was finally able to eat the stir-fried dishes he longed for.
