Chapter 240: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 43
Everyone spent the entire day cleaning the entire Dream Village of every single mber of the Assembly of Freedom hiding, especially from the new batch of reinforcent, which eliminated almost the entire group.
Because of that, Jericho could only helplessly accept that they'd be delayed in their preparation for the incoming battle against the Assembly of Freedom. It wasn't all that bad though, since they can just direct their preparations outside instead of inside as Kayn's group is very busy still dealing with mbers of the Assembly of Freedom.
Later in the evening, it was finally ti to clean the rats hiding in the canal and sewer of the Dream Village.
Kayn's group has already gathered all information there is to know about this group of rats, including the fact that every evening they gather under the warehouse to sleep.
Using that information, Kayn and everyone waited until all rants were sleeping before eventually deciding to strike.
As it was deep underground, no one was able to notice anything wrong at all with the warehouse.
Upon the departure of everyone from the warehouse, Kayn made a formal announcent, declaring the complete liberation of the Dream Village from any remaining mbers of the Assembly of Freedom. This encompassed even the red district, which had been absolved of any association with the organization, thanks to the diligent oversight of the Wing Boots Auction House, now under the capable leadership of Master Khalid and his newly assigned assistant Randy, who had been absent throughout this period.
The next day, Kayn and everyone decided to take the entire morning as their break before deciding to start making preparations for the arrival of the Assembly of Freedom in four days during the afternoon.
In the eting room, Kayn and every important personnel decided to hold a eting to discuss about their preparation.
"I suggest we make a moat that surrounds the entire Dream Village with eight drawn bridges respectively in the location of the eight different directions in the compass," Emt presented his idea.
Gilbert expressed his dissent before presenting an alternative idea. "That seems like a lot of effort. Why don't we simply encircle the northern area with trenches and fill them with the surplus oil we currently have in stock?"
"That would leave our south, east, and west undefended," Jude express his worry.
"We have a limited ti of three days for preparation, as the fourth day will be designated for rest. Let's keep that in mind," Jericho emphasized the need for practicality to everyone.
"How about we combine the two?" Kayn realized this after hearing Emt and Gilbert's ideas. "We put the moat in the north, and trenches to the south, west, and east,"
"Do we cover it in oil?"
"Water and soil,"
"You an mud?"
"Quicksand!" Jericho imdiately realized. By combining water and soil, they can make an artificial quicksand. This is possible if they add more water content compared to soil as the decrease in friction makes it possible to sink.
"How do we identify the quicksand from the actual ground, though?" Jude felt worried that by doing this they aren't might make themselves into trapped targets.
"Why would that even matter? It's not like we are the ones to walk into them. The harder they are to differentiate, the better for us," Gilbert doesn't understand why that's a problem.I think you should take a look at
"That also ans we won't have any modes of leaving the Dream Village. Idiot!" Jude cursed.
Gilbert imdiately realized.
"We use tunnels," Kayn proposed.
"That's impossible! If we do that, we will have to dig tunnels that are even deeper than the moats and trenches we made. In that case, we will reach the underwater cave system…" Jude realized. "Don't tell you want us to use the underwater cave system to escape?"
"Detour, rember," Kayn reminded Jude of his strategy.
"I like it!" Jude was finally reassured.
"Moat, trenches, and tunnels?" Jericho recorded. "I will separate all of you into two groups, one group in charge of the moat, and the other for the trenches, would that be okay?"
"Go on," Kayn motioned his hand for Jericho to proceed.
"As for the tunnels, I'll make Master Khalid and the Wing Boots Auction House in charge of it so that none of our soldiers would accidentally reveal its whereabouts,"
"An organization of thieves and rchants being put in charge of our escape route, I don't feel that's a good idea," Emt stated his concern.
"If you think of it in a good way, it ans they are good at finding flaws and determining which material is good to use in construction," Jericho rolled his eyes at Emt. The latter was clearly stereotyping his guild just because he is a mber of the Thieves Guild Alliance, at least he was, he already left after his friends' betrayal. It was also his way to distract them because his departure from the organization gave them a lot of trouble. Unless they find soone who is as competent as him or more, only then would they be able to focus all their attention on the war against Green Horn City.
"Fair enough," Emt decided to trust Jericho.
"The person in charge of the moat would be Kayn, and the trenches would be Emt. The two of you are free to pick whoever you want to be part of your team as long as they agree," Jericho looks at Kayn and Emt.
"Understood,"
Kayn and Jericho expressed their acknowledgnt of their responsibility.
"This concludes the eting," Jericho finally ended the eting.
With that being said, Kayn and Emt imdiately started moving to pick the people to be part of their respective teams.
Emt acknowledged that he couldn't compete with Kayn in terms of inviting the people present in the eting room. Therefore, he made the ultimate choice to select capable individuals from outside. He held no objections to this approach; in fact, he preferred it.
After inviting the mbers of his team to join him in making the moat, Kayn also went out to pick capable personnel to join him.
