Moira After struggling for a while, he finally nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Moira agreed, Flora breathed a sigh of relief and then lay on the bed and began to rest.

After a while, he fell asleep.

Moira helplessly covered his forehead, skillfully took off Flora's armor, and then walked out of the tent to bring a basin of hot water to wipe it off.

More than ten minutes later, after Moira finished his work, he lay down next to Flora and began to rest.

At the same time, in another independent camp, Velin was staring at the map of the western part of the kingdom while summarizing and conjecturing the information collected today.

"The defense lines of the three provinces of Lunsa-East-Dani were attacked on a large scale. The surrounding provinces will inevitably mobilize troops to support, and the Famine Cult incident will break out in September. Is there any connection between them?"

After carefully speculating on the information in his hand, Velin had uncertain thoughts in his mind.

"Lord."

Kyle opened the curtain and walked in, beating his chest and saluting Velin.

"Kyle, here you go, sit down."

Velin put down the materials in his hands and turned around to pour a cup of tea for Kyle.

Kyle, who had just landed on the bench, quickly stood up again, took the tea cup from Velin's hand with both hands, and took a cautious sip.

"You take a look at the information here first. I want to hear your opinion."

Kyle put the tea cup aside, took the information on the small table, compared it with the map, read it carefully, and thought carefully.

Ten minutes later, Kyle put down the information in his hand, shook his head and said, "Lord, please forgive me for being stupid. I didn't see anything unusual."

After hearing this, Velin touched his chin and said to himself, "Probably as I thought, the higher-ups should characterize this as a monster versus border conflict."

It is reasonable and reasonable for Kyle to make such a judgment based on the existing intelligence data without knowing the incident of Famine Cult.

As a knight who worked hard to climb up from a serf, Kyle, although he does not have much experience, his judgment on things has surpassed that of many people.

"Get off first and don't tell anyone about what happened tonight."

"Yes."

Kyle stood up, saluted, and then left the camp.

Afterwards, Velin lit the information written on the parchment and threw it into the brazier. After it burned out, he blew out the oil lamp and began to rest.

Late at night, Monny Province, Count Fokris Territory, central city Fokris City, a prosperous city with a population of more than 100,000 people.

In the basement of the City Lord's Mansion, four Black Robe met here.

"Accepting the order from the front line, Monny Province and two Knight Order, the provincial army has already set off. At the same time, it ordered two Marquis in the province, named Count has assembled an army of 80,000, and Count in Falkreis is gathering troops, and Fokris City is expected to leave in three days," a Black Robe said first.

Immediately afterwards, another Black Robe reported, "I am receiving the Transfer Order from Bishop [Monny Province Church of Life, the whole Count Fokris Territory Church of Life needed to mobilize three hundred pastors and eight hundred Church Knight to go to the front line. In the end, the church was left with more than a hundred pastors and two hundred Church Knight."

"It's similar here." A muscular Black Robe said, "The Fokris City Adventure Guild needs to dispatch eight Bronze adventure groups of more than 100 people to the front line. The rest are just three melons and two dates, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

"After one day, let our people take action and offer sacrifices to My God." The leader, Black Robe, cheered enthusiastically while performing a prayer ceremony.

"For My God." The other three also lowered their heads silently and began to pray.

In the early morning of the first day, a large number of the Noble Army arrived one after another, making the entire camp noisy.

In Logistics Camp, Flora went straight towards Velin's camp after washing up.

Kyle, who was standing guard at the door, looked at Flora coming towards him and leaned forward to salute. "Good morning, Lady Flora."

"Velin is still resting?"

"Yes, my lord, you just had a night's rest yesterday." Kyle stood at the door of the camp, showing no signs of moving out of the way.

At the same time, Velin had just gotten up from the bed and put on his clothes when he heard the voice of Flora.

"Kyle, let Aunt Flora come in."

"Yes."

After hearing the order from his Lord, Kyle stepped aside and raised the curtain.

"My lord, please come in."

Flora nodded and then entered the camp.

"Auntie, you are here."

"Well, I haven't seen you for a while." Flora sat directly on the bench.

After Velin packed up, he turned to Flora and asked, "Auntie, what's the matter?"

"I believe you have also received the news that Knight Order is leaving for Lensa-East-Dani's three-provincial defense line. Do you want to stay or follow?"

Seeing that Velin didn't even think about it and was about to give the answer, Flora rushed to say, "Think clearly, going to the defense line of the three provinces of Lensa-East-Dani is a good place to get Battle Merit. This opportunity is rare."

"Aunt, what about you?" Velin saw this and asked Yu.

"My team and I are staying." Flora said with a smile.

"Is it for Cadro Province's safety?"

After hearing this, Flora nodded, indicating his acquiescence.

Velin got this answer, which was not much different from what he had guessed.

"Auntie, I don't have much ambition. I just want to develop the territory well. I generally don't do risky things. If you need my help, I can stay and help you."

"If you stay, what will happen to the safety of your territory?" Flora asked Yu with a concerned look.

Velin shook his head and said, "In my territory, Silver Knight alone has fourteen of them, and there is a strong guard guarding them. No one below Legendary can threaten my territory, and they are limited to my territory."

"Good boy, is this someone sent secretly by your father?" Flora asked with a surprised look on his face.

"Auntie, you are overthinking this. This is my own opportunity and has nothing to do with my father."

When Flora heard it, he was extremely surprised. He thought he had already understood Velin, but he didn't expect that Velin was just the tip of the iceberg, which was quite mysterious.

"Then, I, Flora, beg you to stay and help me." Flora suddenly stood up with a serious expression.

"Willing to serve."

"Hey, let's go have breakfast. I have to go to a meeting later."

"Yeah."

After a vote at the afternoon meeting, most of the nobles agreed to lead their troops to support the Lensa-East-Dani three-province defense line.

For them, Battle Merit is a rare opportunity, and the opportunity is even more difficult.

Two days later, Knight Order elite personnel mixed into the noble Elite Forces, totaling 1,000 people, including one Soul Intent-tier strongman, five Gold-tier, and four hundred Silver-tier, more than 5,500 Bronze-tier, went to Cadro Province Provincial Capital, preparing to go to Lensa-East-Dani through Teleportation Array to support the defense line of the three provinces.
