Volume 4 Chapter 12 This is supplying the enemy!
When the northern army was focused on preparing for war, the Sack Kingdomâs army to the north of the Muerto Mountains naturally werenât idle.
His highness Eric didnât conceal his attempt to lead the northern army to attack the Sack Kingdom, so naturally it didnât escape the informants of the Sack Kingdom.
Although the Sack Kingdom had the advantage over the Lampuri Kingdom, the Sack Kingdom didnât dare show any neglect in this rare attempt by the Lampuri Kingdom to attack them.
Because his highness Eric had the support of many large nobles of the Lampuri Kingdom, the northern army was even stronger than the Hungry Wolf Regiment. Also the northern army demonstrated a powerful battle strength last year when they attacked the Muerto Mountains, even forcing the Sack Kingdom to give them up.
If the northern army was as strong as last year and with the strong supplies his highness Eric received from the large nobles supporting them, the Sack Kingdom definitely couldnât easily resist them.
But the Hungry Wolf Regimentâs commander Chalon Linear had a decisive piece of good news.
Through his reports, because chairman Xu of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce showed his support for her highness Seveni, his highness Eric had refused to buy any military magic machines from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce to show his stance.
The current northern guard, other than a few military magic machines they bought last year, they had just a few military magic machines the royal army headquarters bought from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce which they gave the northern army.
The Lampuri Kingdomâs military had always been poor and adding in the fact that Lampuri Thirteenth had never supported his highness Ericâs attack on the Sack Kingdom, so the army headquarters didnât give many military magic machines to the northern army. The northern army wasnât really increased.
Commander Liearâs greatest worry about the northern army were those strange military magic machines, especially the powerful Magic Trebuchet, which he couldnât find a way to deal with yet.
If his highness Eric had the full support of the large nobles and the northern army had military magic machines, Linear wouldnât have been confident in resisting them.
âHa, ha, itâs a good thing this prince is an idiot, what different stands when youâre going to war! This is simply breaking his own hands and feet!â Linear slapped the map on the table and broke out in laughter, âWhen this idiot charges forward with that pitiful northern army, brothers, weâll give them something good to see and take revenge for last year!â
The officers in the command center all cheered out at the same time.
Seeing his comrades being filled with confidence, Linear gave a satisfied nod.
Although they had been beaten by the northern army last year and lost the Muerto Mountains.
Because of their long time superiority over the Lampuri Kingdom, the Sack Kingdom and especially the soldiers of the Hungry Wolf Regiment all felt superior over the Lampuri Kingdom.
Last yearâs loss made everyoneâs fighting will surge, pledging to wash off the same from last year.
After discussing a few more details with the defense, chief officer Ivy Joao walked in.
Following behind him were his personal bodyguards.
Linear couldnât help looking at the thing Joaoâs bodyguards had been holding.
âWhat is that thing?â Seeing the rectangular box like thing wrapped in a sheet that was releasing a silver glow, Linear couldnât help asking in a surprised voice.
âA good thing.â Joao revealed a faint smile. He had the guards put the square thing on the wall of the room and then he took out another small and white rectangular box made of an unknown material before asking Linear, âHey, Linear, do you think this room is warm or cold?â
Linear was even more confused, âWhat do you want to do?â
âYouâll know in a bit.â Joao shook the little white box in his hand, âFirst tell me, do you feel warm or cold?â
Linear knit his brows and looked at Joao with a strange look.
But he had been with Joao for many years and knew that he didnât have a personality of creating mischief, so after thinking about it, he pulled on his collar.
âThereâs too many people in this room, I feel that itâs a bit stuffy, so it should be a bit warm.â
âWarm?â Joao turned to the others in the room, âWhat about you? Do you also feel warm?â
The others all nodded.
There were over ten strong men stuffed in a small room and adding in the fact that it was early spring and the temperature was getting warmer, naturally they felt a bit warm.
âAlright, since youâre warm, then Iâll make it a bit cooler. Iâll let you seeâŠ..what air conditioning is likeâŠâŠâ Joao looked at the small white box for a bit before pointing it at the box hanging on the wall and pressing it.
âDing.â
With a soft and pleasing sound, there was a red light that suddenly appeared on the box on the wall. Then the lower half of the iron box slowly came up and revealed a black hole.
When everyone was confused, the red band that was under the iron box began moving and there was a cool breeze that came out, hitting everyone in the face, causing everyone to feel much cooler.
Feeling the comforting breeze from the iron bax, Linear thought for a bit before asking Joao, âHey, Joao, this thingâŠ..It wouldnât be that Magic Air Conditioner, right? I remember that it was mentioned in the report on the Frestech Chamber of Commerce last time.â
âThatâs right, itâs the Magic Air Conditioner.â Joao said with a nod, âHow is it? Is it comfortable?â
âItâs much more comfortable, but how did you get this thing?â Linear asked with a frown, âIt canât be that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce came to sell things in our Sack Kingdom, right?â
Joao looked at him and didnât respond. He put away the white box in his hand and looked over the others in the room.
The others understood and gave the two a bow before leaving the room.
Seeing Joaoâs actions, Linear knit his brows even more. When the others left, he immediately asked, âWhat? Is there a problem with the background of this Magic Air Conditioner?â
âOf course.â Joao nodded, âWithout a problem, how could the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs things appear here?â
âThat is rightâŠâŠâ Linear reacted and after thinking about it, he asked, âHow did this thing get here? If my guesses arenât wrong, it should be some damn merchants that smuggled it in from the Lampuri Kingdom, right?â
âIt was indeed smuggled in, but you canât look down on those merchants this time. If it wasnât for their help, we couldnât obtain the easy to use magic machines from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce. Donât you think the effects of the Magic Air Conditioner are quite good?â
Linear looked at the Magic Air Conditioner blowing out the cool breeze and looked at the white box that Joao put on the table before shaking his head, âIt is easy to use, but thereâs no need for us to have this thing. Anyway, smuggling the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs things, isnât this helping them earn money? Thereâs no benefits here.â
âWhat? You want the people of the kingdom to ignore the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs products?â Joao looked at Linear before giving a laugh, âLet me tell you, this is impossible. Chairman Walker who gave me this Magic Air Conditioner said that in the bunch of household magic machines he smuggled this time, they were sold out a month in advance. He just needs to transport them and he would be earning a large amount.â
Linear gave a strong snort, âHe just cares about earning money, but doesnât he think abou the Frestech Chamber of Commerce earning money? If it was me, he is committing treason by supporting the enemy!â
Joao gave a sigh and shook his head, âDonât be this close minded. We actually can gain quite a bit from this. Think about it, the military magic machines are produced by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, these household magic machines also come from them. After we receive these household magic machines, those old men in the magic department might receive inspiration from them, helping them study the military magic machines.â
âWhat? Is this the arrangement of the headquarters?â Linear asked back.
âYes.â Joao nodded in confirmation, âOther than bringing in goods from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce to help the magic departmentâs research, we can also have direct contact with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce through these transactions. Do you need me to tell you the benefits we can receive from this?â
Linear thought for a bit before giving a nod.
âAlright, I can understand the reason for this arrangement, but just like you said, a bunch of people in the kingdom want to buy household magic machines from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, isnât that letting the Frestech Chamber of Commerce take money from them? This doesnât seem good, right?â
Joao gave a shrug, âThereâs no other way, the Frestech Chamber of Commerceâs things are good to use. Not just them, even Iâm moved. Right, Iâm planning on having chairman Walker get some magic machines from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce for our regiment, but I donât know if he can get them or not.â
Linear was stunned, âWhat do we need those for? No, I donât agree!â
âDonât be so quick to judge.â Joao took out a piece of a paper with a smile, âLook, this is an introduction to all the magic machines the Frestech Chamber of Commerce produces. Look, the Magic Air Conditioner isnât something we need for the entire regiment, but I think we should at least get ten thousand of these Magic Lamps, right? Because itâs easy to turn on, thereâs no need for flames and it can last a long time with just a bit of a Magic CrystalâŠâŠ.â
âAlso this Magic Freezer. Itâll be summer soon and the logistics department will be shipping all kinds of meat and vegetables to us. We lose quite a bit of them on the way when they are shipped. If we have the Magic Freezer, we can preserve them for longer and save on transportation costs.â
âSpeaking of the transportation problem, look at this transport Magic Car. This thing can load several tons of cargo and this thing is much sturdier and faster than horse carriages. If the logistics department uses these transport Magic Cars, we donât need to worry about logistics in the future. Of course, this thing is too big and itâs not easy to smuggle it.â
âThereâs also this Magic Stove. I feel like we definitely need this thing because we can use a stove without lighting a fire. Adding in the Magic Rice Cooker, itâll be much easier to cook compared to lighting a fire. Whether it is in the barracks or out in the wild, itâs very easy to use.â
âOf course, thereâs still thisâŠâŠâ
âŠâŠ
Hearing Joao introduce the magic machines one by one, although Linear kept struggling with the idea that this was âsupporting the enemyâ, he couldnât help being attracted by Joaoâs introductions.
Even if it was him, he had to admit it.
The magic machines from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce really were too damn easy to use!
