Lord Wizard

Chapter 94 Recruitment

"it is good."

After Lin Meng finished speaking, he turned to look at Goss.

Goss hurriedly said, "Supplies and provisions are always plentiful, but it takes time to temporarily conscript laborers."

"How long will it take?"

"In about six days, we can temporarily requisition farmers from Solent City for logistical support."

"I'll give you ten days. After ten days, prepare all the necessary supplies, and we'll set off on our expedition."

Lin Mengdao.

Military campaigns cannot be rushed. Now that the initiative is in his hands, he naturally has to be careful.

"Yes, sir!"

……

Just as Lin Meng was preparing his troops to take advantage of the chaos...

The real world.

In Director Karin's office, Ryan was sitting there, explaining the recent battle situation to her.

"You mean, there are already more than ten Grand Knights under Xu Ri's command on the main battlefield?"

Karin asked with a serious expression.

"Yes, including those local Grand Knights, there are nearly twenty of them. There are more than fifteen who can fight at any time. Once the fifteen Grand Knights lead the charge, no formation can withstand them. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been defeated by them."

Ryan said.

"I've already arranged for three Grand Knights to assist you in the first squad. The remaining Grand Knights are either on other battlefields or are some second-class apprentices with limited combat strength..."

"Three great knights are not enough."

Ryan shook his head.

"Should we ask the Central Continent for help...? But the Central Continent is far away, and even if reinforcements arrive, it will be months later..."

Karen pondered.

"I want to mobilize the army under Nero, the captain of the fourth squad, and Lin Meng to attack the Snow Kingdom's homeland from the flank, forcing a portion of the Perseus Alliance's forces to return to its aid."

"Lin Meng is under your third squad, so you can do whatever you want with him. But if you transfer Nero there... he'll be in the same squad as you. On the battlefield, will he listen to you or him?"

Karen asked with a half-smile.

"That's why I've come to ask you for your orders."

Ryan said with a smile.

If Nero were still the vice-captain of the third squad, it wouldn't be a problem, but now that he's the captain of the fourth squad, on par with Ryan, he naturally has to rely on Karin to step in.

"I can relay the order for you, but I'm wondering what you would do if the other side sent third-class apprentices?"

"This...didn't all parties agree that the main task of third-class apprentices is to be responsible for aptitude tests? And that wars outside the Central Continent are mainly fought by knights and great knights?"

Ryan hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Do you think Rising Sun is that stubborn? I'll send Christine to the front lines to oversee things. You two will command your respective forces on your own during the week. If you and Nero disagree, she'll make the decision. What do you think?"

"Alright, I've been working with Nero for so many years, there won't be any problems, so you can rest assured."

"Since you agree, then I will issue the order from the wartime system."

After speaking, Karin took out her phone and entered the wartime system to issue a mission.

……

"Buzz!"

Lin Meng, who was meditating in the Wizarding World, vaguely sensed the vibration from her phone.

His spiritual growth made his perception of his other body in the real world clearer. He was still a little short of being a normal person, but he no longer needed to leave the wizarding world to perform some basic actions, operations, and communication.

When he saw the emergency war mission pop up on his phone, he immediately clicked on the details.

"It seems my analysis was correct. If the company really wants to use my power, it will definitely make me attack the Snowfield Kingdom."

After watching for a moment, Lin Meng smiled.

Even without the company's orders, he originally planned to go to the Snowfield Duchy to freeload, but he knew there would be a lot of trouble afterwards, and he would inevitably face gossip from the Kingdom of Aden and the Kingdom of Frost.

But now...

With the company issuing a mission and the Sky Light providing its endorsement, the Frost Kingdom and the Aden Kingdom dare to make any moves. When the reckoning comes, they will surely face annihilation.

"They're actually sending me and Captain Nero together? This will ensure everything goes smoothly."

After reading the mission details, Lin Meng took out his phone.

He had not been in contact with Nero for some time since Nero was transferred to become the captain of the fourth squad.

"Ring ring ring".

Just as Lin Meng was about to make a call, his phone rang first.

The caller ID showed it was Nero.

After Lin Meng answered the call, he heard Nero's cheerful voice: "Lin Meng, you've also received the emergency wartime mission issued by the company, right? It seems that Ryan's side can't hold on anymore, haha. The rewards for wartime missions are very generous. If all goes well, you can even get several thousand points after a big battle. How much preparation time do you need? Let's discuss a meeting point."

"Then I'll wait for you in Snowfield City, the territory of Earl Cook on the border of the Snowfield Duchy."

Lin Meng smiled.

"wait for me?"

Nero on the other side was taken aback for a moment, then quickly recovered: "Are you ready to go to war? Or are you already on your way?"

"My vanguard is ready to enter the polar ice fields. By the time you are ready for battle and arrive in the Snowfield Duchy, I should have already captured Snowfield City."

"That's quite efficient, such a fast mobilization speed. You wouldn't have been eyeing the Snowfield Principality all along, would you? Are you planning to use your troops to sustain the war effort through combat?"

"Just think of it as such. Being able to fight against so many masters is a great fortune in life."

Ah, youth is truly wonderful.

Nero remarked with a sigh.

He no longer has the same drive as Lin Meng.

If he were to follow Lin Mengbing's risky tactics again, and were to fall into trouble, who knows how long it would take to start over.

"By the way, I recently discovered that constantly damaging and recovering mental energy, repeating this process repeatedly, is very helpful in increasing mental attributes. You can give it a try."

Lin Meng shared his method for rapidly improving his mental strength with Nero.

Nero had practiced meditation before him, but he had only meditated on the eleventh Will Rune, and it was unknown how many months it would take before he officially became a first-class apprentice.

"I've seen this method before... but mental damage is unpleasant to suffer from, and recovery is slow. If you use calming incense and mental tonics to treat it, that would cost a lot of money."

Nero frowned and said, "You're not planning to just throw yourself into the second-class apprenticeship like that, are you? That would cost a fortune, and I'm not as lucky as you to get guidance from Director Ivan."

Ivan's rise was too fast. As soon as he became a knight, he was immediately tested and found to have the aptitude of level five or above, which instantly attracted the attention of the head office. If it weren't to hide him, they wouldn't have let him stay in the third squad for several months.

However, even though he was in the squad, he was only nominally in charge, which meant that many people in the third squad didn't have a chance to curry favor with this vice-captain.

On the contrary, Lin Meng, because he was an alumnus of Ivan's school, was once regarded as a role model by Ivan, and the two have maintained contact ever since.

"Fortunately, you should know that I have a very good memory. I just need to remember the spell-building techniques that Ivan mentioned and try them out step by step. Moreover, I feel that my mental recovery is particularly fast. With the help of some restorative supplies, even if I suffer a backlash, I can recover quickly."

Lin Mengdao.

By taking precautions through these subtle details, he paves the way for his future success as a wizard.

"I forgot you're a genius. Your comprehension is far beyond what we mediocre students can compare to, and your mental recovery is so fast... Is it some kind of innate talent? Indeed, the world of geniuses is beyond the comprehension of us mere mortals."

Nero said with a hint of sarcasm.

But his tone was actually full of envy.

How long has Lin Meng been with Blue Flame Company?

Not only has the knightly path surpassed his in cultivation, but the wizarding path has also now left him behind.

There's no comparison between people.

"My talent is nothing compared to those true geniuses... Alright, I'm hanging up now. I need to arrange things for entering the polar ice field. I can't stay out for too long. See you in Snow City."

See you in Snow City!
