Chapter 223: Rex’s Plan (Part 1)

It was not until mid-April that the patrol soldiers sent by Salin discovered Rex's forward. Because Rex's team was too big and it was cold again, she had to slow down to avoid unnecessary casualties.

After learning that Daniel and others had already met with Rex, Salin did not send anyone to pick him up.

In Rex's army, Juan said to Rex with great dissatisfaction: "Why didn't Salin send anyone to pick you up? Your Highness brought a swordsman camp to help him."

Juan had no objection to Salin's status improvement, after all, he advanced faster than him. But Salin seemed to not even take Rex seriously now. Rex came from all the way with a large number of people, and he was actually waiting in the city.

"Juan, we are magicians." Rex said lightly.

The fact that Salin was able to send people to the border to pick her up was enough to show Salin's position. As for whether to go out of the city to pick her up, it was a noble issue. Although Juan is also a great magician now, he still could not get rid of some of his noble ideas.

Because there are too many people and most of them are not soldiers, Rex's team is divided into several parts, and the leading one is the cavalry of a flag regiment.

The leader of the cavalry was Tinis, whom Salin knew. He now commanded a flag regiment of 1,000 people, and his strength also felt like a swordsman. After contacting Salin's patrol soldiers, he was taken outside the city.

The white city wall stretches for several miles and is more than 20 meters high. It is obviously not built at the top of the city. On the plain, this is already a powerful pass, not to mention that the nearby terrain is towering on both sides. The city is stuck at the fault of the mountains and is very ideal.

The west is the main gate, and the huge city gate is wrapped in white steel, with huge pens. The city gate above eight meters high is actually wrapped in white steel. Moreover, this layer of white steel has been magically treated and is not reflective, but is integrated with the white city wall. The white steel is etched with magic patterns, which is not so cold.

Above the city gate is a single piece of white stone, with a line of ancient Meerce - Metatlin City.

"Metatratlin?" Tinis's lips curled up and he smiled softly. He didn't know what Salin and Rex had a deal. Rex did not tell him about the God's punishment of Hell. But he knew that Rex and Sarin were both magicians and paid attention to the principle of fair exchange.

However, if you name the city after your surname, it seems that Salin has great ambitions!

The Qinyin Empire originally had only one city named after its surname, that is, the City of Grucos, more than 400 miles south of the Holy Rock City. It was a royal fief. As long as the Qinyin Empire was still there, it would always be Grucos' private property.

I don’t know what your Highness will think after seeing it.

Tinis was generous and just smiled. The city gate was not closed, but there were iron chains behind it. Someone had come out to greet him, but he was a low-level mage. After symbolically checking Tinis' badge, a soldier behind opened the iron chain and completely opened the city gate.

Tinis saw that part of the city wall near the city gate was empty and there was a winch inside. This huge city gate wrapped in white steel must weigh more than tens of thousands of kilograms, and it is difficult to break with a siege hammer.

Moreover, if the thickness of the city wall exceeds twelve meters, there will definitely be devices such as the Dragon Broken Stone or a hidden magic circle. Although this city has not been built yet, it already has the standards for fortresses.

But the number of soldiers on the city wall is so pitiful, with less than a hundred people gathering at the main entrance and watching. It seems that the quality is also average. When standing guard, the emperor came to the door, so he shouldn't have done such a move.

Tinis guessed right. The city of Salin has concentrated most of his strength in the city center and the port. This is just the newly trained barbarians. Each brigade can only have one swordsman commander on Srieg Island. It is difficult to make these barbarians pay attention to discipline, and they are far inferior to the Caucasians. The Caucasians have become accustomed to strict discipline and are born to be suitable for military service.

Fortunately, in addition to the giant trees left behind after cutting down, there are many empty places in the city. Rex's people entered the city one after another and could also use tents to live in it.

Because the city had not really started to operate, Rex and his group were taken directly to the city hall and temporarily placed.

Salin prepared enough food, heated it up and distributed it. Because the people came more than ten times the expected food, the food was obviously insufficient, so he could only take care of Rex's swordsman camp first.

Rex saw the slow progress of the construction of Metattering City, but he was not in a hurry. She liked the style of the city very much, and the foundation was very solid. All roads and underground facilities had traces of magic reinforcement. A large number of trees were left in the city, and some places were left, obviously used as gardens.

Rex is now surrounded by nearly a hundred magicians around him. Salin smiled and greeted him, "Your Highness, how are you doing recently?"

The magicians who didn't know Salin all secretly stumbled on their tongues. Even if Rex was not the prince, he was also a level six magician. Salin's attitude was a bit contemptuous.

"Where is you free?" Rex immediately relaxed when he saw Salin for some reason. She saw that Salin had laid the foundation of the city extremely strongly and was happy. After all, this city was to hide the plane teleportation array. Only by building a city full of magic traces can it be possible to hide the strong elemental fluctuations emitted during teleportation.

"Long time no see you guys." Salin looked at the mages around Rex. Several of them met when he lived in the Princess's Mansion. The relationship was pretty good at that time.

When Juan saw Salin, a trace of dissatisfaction disappeared. Salin gave him a feeling of being arrogant, but it was not something that could be done with a pretentious attitude. That was a kind of majesty that Salin had been in charge of a city for more than half a year, mobilizing nearly 10,000 people, and formed invisibly.

"You guys rest here. I have something to talk to Salin." Rex did not exchange greetings, and left the town hall with Salin under everyone's surprised gaze.

"Your Highness, what are you anxious about?" Salin calmly stayed by Rex's side. The pressure he had when he first met Rex was gone.

"Forget it, there are no outsiders anymore, you'd better call me Rex."

"Well, Rex, how about Kushui County?"

"It's awful. There's a war in the west, and those two secret passages are useless. The east is blocked by the Holy Rock City, and the north is full of troops. A large number of northern nobles transferred their soldiers back from Garroran, and Garroran has now lost most of them. Kushui County has no business at all, so they can only earn their old capital. Fortunately, I have collected the surrounding cities and land, so I can no longer buy food outside.

"It's okay, Kushui County is located in a remote location. Although it is not suitable for development, it is easy to maintain it. As long as food is not a problem, it is even..."

"I will not let the Dongulas set foot on Qinyin's land." Rex interrupted Salin's words.

"Well, the same is true for the trouble I am in now. There is a war in the north, and I can't walk by land or sea. I originally wanted to set up a passage in Phoenix, which could go directly to Skochenya."

"It's not impossible. I'll solve Skochenya's affairs. I must get the passage along this road, otherwise we can only contact Kushui County by teleportation array, and we can't afford it."

"The sea is the worst. After all, the road on land is long. By the sea, we could have arrived at Lianyun City quickly..."

"When will anyone be sent to that Srieg Island?"

"How do I know that before this, we can't deal with the expeditionary forces of the East China Sea countries. They have three hundred warships, and I have lost one now, and there are three big ships in my hand, one..." Salin did not say the Alchemy Ship of the Round Turtle, Rex already understood.

In the square in front of the temple, Shika was supervising her guard training. These selected Caucasian warriors were all replaced with magic armor made by Salin. These armors looked a bit rough because they were not made by one person, but Rex could tell at a glance that the materials of these armors were so good. They were all polished from the shells of the monsters.

In terms of magic attacks, the carapaces of the monsters are similar to skin, but when dealing with physical attacks, the equipment polished by crustaceans is better. These carapaces are actually stronger than steel. Apart from being difficult to repair, they are no different from metal armor's defensiveness, and are more lightweight.

Even the Royal Swordsman Camp in Holy Rock City only wears such armor for officers.

"Sarin, where did you get these materials? Did you buy them from Alchemy City?"

Salin smiled and told Elaine about it, Rex said: "You are so awesome. You actually lied to a girl."

"I didn't lie to her. I won't lose any less of the benefits I deserve."

"That's right. Those from this kind of family are more concerned about interests." Rex did not mean to blame Salin. Salin and Elaine could be said to be each taking their own needs. Elaine must also know Salin's relationship with him, and joining the Salin power is actually related to him.

Since the fundamental reason is interests, it would be a bit stupid to talk about feelings again.

Sika greeted Rex from a distance and continued to train her guards. She is now enthusiastic about this matter. The Caucasian warriors obviously obeyed her. A few guys even began to learn sword energy from Zola.

After seeing these Caucasian warriors, Rex nodded with satisfaction. These Caucasians and the soldiers in the west of the city were obviously different in quality. They were not only disciplined, but also had several times higher skills. Basically, everyone had the strength of a swordsman, which was already beyond her swordsman camp.

"I'll take you to see a place." Salin mysteriously took Rex to his room, in the close-range teleportation array.

The two of them soon appeared in Salin's underground warehouse. Rex discovered that this was almost a completely enclosed space, and any elemental fluctuations in the space would be difficult to detect by the outside world. If all the magic towers in Metatrium were running, there would be basically no possibility of being discovered here.
