Chapter 203: Transfer Order
During the eting, Robert made a series of arrangents. Heath noticed that many of the arrangents were handled by Robert on a daily basis, but now they were all arranged out.
Just as Heath was surprised, Robert said, “I’ll leave the defense of the fortress to you. I have to go back to the Tower of Order. If we don’t solve the issue of the source of troops, we’ll be in big trouble sooner or later!”
“Aalto, Cullen, while I’m away, I’ll leave the military control to you two. Is there a problem?”
The two people nad were both human. They were very famous military generals of the West Coast.
There were still very few Wizards who knew about military affairs in the Bloody Fortress. Most of the military plans were still carried out by the outstanding generals of the human race. It was strange to say that although the human race did not have much power, they seed to know how to use their power better than anyone else.
Robert was very good at commanding battles, but many of the specific military arrangents were still made by the human generals.
The two of them said, “No.”
A few days ago, the fortress had just experienced a large-scale Wraith tide. After such a strong tide erupted, it would usually take a long ti before it would make a coback. Even if there was an attack, it would only be on a small scale.
“In that case…”
Robert then made a series of detailed arrangents.
In a corner of the conference room, Heath was a little absent-minded as he listened to Robert’s arrangents.
He had originally wanted to propose a transfer to Robert during this eting, but now it seed that the transfer was a failure.
“Heath…”
“Wizard Heath!” Robert raised his voice.
Heath ca back to his senses. “Commander.”
Robert frowned. “Wizard Heath, did sothing happen? Why are you distracted during the eting?”
Uh… he was caught in a daze…
Heath quickly said, “Sorry, Commander, I’m thinking of what other improvents can be made to the 331 formation. Currently, the warriors still have so problems in changing their formation.”
Hearing this, Robert’s expression imdiately turned from dark to clear.
He nodded and said, “If those rulers can send one or two talents like Wizard Heath, I won’t talk about them.”
The atmosphere was heavy for a long ti. The generals quickly took the opportunity to joke.
“Hahaha, Commander, then you’re making things difficult for the rulers. They might not be able to find a second talent like Wizard Heath even after searching the entire West Coast. How can he be casually brought out?”
“He’s skilled in magic and knows military affairs. He’s really young and promising.”
“Thanks to his suggestion on the formation, the casualty rate at the frontline has dropped quite a bit recently.”
Although the generals were trying to ease the atmosphere, they were not just talking nonsense.
The last ti on the battlefield, Heath had discovered that the soldiers were prone to mishaps when changing their formation. After a few careful observations at the frontline and combining it with his own military knowledge, he gave Robert a suggestion. Change the 442 formation to the 331 formation. He had explained it in detail.
This plan was highly valued by Robert, and he found a few areas on the battlefield as a pilot. As Heath had expected, the change in formation was much smoother, and the casualty rate had dropped a lot.
This made Heath famous at the Round Table.
He was a Wizard, a Grand Knight, and he knew military tactics. The key was that he was handso. How could such a talented person not be liked?
Robert’s expression softened a lot.
He said, “If you have any new ideas, let know in ti. During my absence, leave it to Aalto and Cullen. They will take it seriously.”
Heath said, “Yes.”
That was close… Fortunately, he was smart enough…
Heath heaved a sigh of relief.
The eting continued until it ended.
…
The day after the eting ended, Robert took an airship and left.
Heath thought that his plan to go out was ruined, but he didn’t expect that after Robert left for a few days, things would take a turn for the better.
However, this turn of events was a little…
A few days later, Bloody Fortress, Cullen’s office.
Knock, knock! There was a knock on the door.
Heath walked into the office. Not long ago, he had received a ssenger’s notice saying that Cullen was looking for him.
In the room, Cullen was sitting in front of his desk, sorting out docunts. When he saw Heath enter, he quickly stood up to welco him.
He said with a smile, “Hehehe, Wizard Heath, you’re here? Co here quickly.”
Cullen was a Count of the human kingdom that used to be under the jurisdiction of the wetland in the old west to the southern part of the continent. Because of his outstanding military ability, he was recomnded by the local Wizard Master to co to the Bloody Battlefield.
Heath said, “Are you looking for for sothing?”
Cullen said, “Sit down first. Let’s talk first, Wizard Heath.”
The two sat on the sofa in the reception room and asked the servant to bring so tea and snacks.
Cullen then took out a map made of sheepskin and opened it on the table. It was a panoramic map of the Sealed Land. On it was a few areas marked with red circles. They were all the military deploynt areas of the Bloody Fortress.
Cullen explained, “Wizard Heath, it’s like this. Recently, the news from the Valley of the Dead has been a little tight. They hope that we can arrange for so reinforcents. They need an official Wizard there. You were the first person I thought of.”
In addition to the fortress, Robert also deployed small troops around the fortress and so important military strategies. They were used to track the movents of the Wraiths and also to reduce the pressure on the fortress.
Heath raised his eyebrows. He had wanted to go out to begin with, and the Valley of the Dead was one of his previous choices. He would not miss such an opportunity.
Just as he was about to agree, he suddenly saw Cullen’s unusual expression.
He looked a little nervous, as if there was sothing he did not want him to know. When their eyes t, he even deliberately avoided his gaze.
Heath frowned.
He thought for a mont and replied, “As a warrior, it is natural for to obey the command. I am just curious, why did you choose ?”
Thinking about it carefully, there was indeed a problem.
There were so many Wizards in the fortress, and Heath’s current status was equivalent to a military staff officer. This military staff officer was sent to the frontline to fight… This was too strange…
Cullen’s eyes were a little evasive, and he laughed dryly. “Haha, I heard that Wizard Heath’s strength is outstanding, so…”
Heath interrupted, “Is that so?”
In terms of military rank, Cullen was a Silver General. As a Bronze Officer, he was not qualified to question the other party’s decision.
However, Heath was a Wizard. He was a human, not to ntion that he was the favorite in front of Supre Commander Robert. Of course, there was no need to be afraid of him.
Cullen wanted to decline. “Haha, Wizard Heath, you’re joking…”
Heath tried to persuade him, “Count Cullen, we have worked together for so long, I think we should understand each other. I can still keep a secret.”
Cullen looked hesitant.
Heath continued, “Although Commander Robert handed over the command to you before he left, I don’t have the right to refuse your order, but will the Commander really not ask after such an unusual order?”
Cullen’s expression changed slightly.
Heath said, “I think we should talk openly. I promise I won’t make things difficult for you.”
Cullen’s expression struggled for a while. “This…”
Finally, he sighed. “Alright.”
After a pause, his expression was serious. He asked directly, “Wizard Heath, I want to know, did you offend anyone recently?”
