Reborn Dragon Vein Warlock, Genius Beauty Mage

In addition to the three large islands of the Principality of Wende, the remaining territory is also a peninsula connected to the mainland in the southeast, and the connection is narrower than the county of Brittany.

The principality has two major ports. The port of Aarhus is located in the northeast and is a pure military port. The main function of the anchored fleet is to intercept the scattered orcs crossing the Oresund Strait. The fleet of the Principality of Belgium that came to support during the war will also dock here. .

Port Esbjerg is located in the southwest of the Principality of Wende and is a commercial port. Because the orcs do not have the technology to build sea ships, it is impossible for their large rafts and canoes to reach here. The environment is very safe. This is also the location of the capital of the principality.

Among the three major islands, except for the island where the Viscounty of Funing is located, which is closer to the mainland, the remaining island where the Viscounty of Sto is located, and the island where the Viscounty of Roskilde is located, is actually closer to the Orc mainland. The orcs' large rafts and canoes have a shallow draft and can theoretically land from any of the latter two islands, making them completely impossible to prevent.

Therefore, although these two islands belong to the Principality of Wende, they have no actual control over them. The islands are basically primitive in appearance. Both humans and orcs have built fortresses on them. This is actually a battlefield for both sides.

The battleship "Sari" docked at the port of Aarhus. In addition to soldiers, there are various slave-catching teams, mercenary groups, and adventurers. It is their base of departure and resting place after their return.

The Mage Guild, Warrior Guild, Mercenary Guild, and Druid Guild are all very large here, and even the Thieves Guild has publicly displayed its sign, not to mention the temples of the major True God Churches.

There is the largest slave auction house on the mainland here. All kinds of orc slaves are sold here every day, and then loaded into trucks and transported to the port of Esbjerg. The peninsula topography of the Principality of Wende made it faster to transport slaves to the port of Esbjerg via land compared to sailing merchant ships to the port of Aarhus, and there was no risk of encountering orcs along the way.

After setting off from here, the only places to find supplies were the fortresses on the two islands of Viscount Stowe and Viscount Roskilde, so Christine assigned tasks to everyone on the ship.

Knight Eric Bernard is responsible for applying for a "private license". Without legal procedures, he will be regarded as a smuggler. This is no joke. Tam, the thief recruited in Fran City, is responsible for going to the Thieves Guild to inquire about information. If the situation at the destination, Roskilde Island, is not good, he will have to wait for a while. Ronnie Stedrroy was responsible for hiring a guide. After all, no one had ever been to that place. The captain is responsible for repairing the warship and replenishing supplies, and then hiring navigators who are familiar with the route. Kristine herself went to the Mage Tower to check the information.

The "private license" was obtained smoothly. Although the official in charge couldn't understand why a baron would personally risk his life to come here, since they were here, he had to get the matter handled as quickly as possible.

I learned from the Thieves Guild that although spring has already begun, it is still early for the orcs to invade in large numbers, because at this time the orcs have begun to gather forces, and it will take several months before they can launch an attack. At most, they will encounter some scattered orc raids. By.

Hiring a guide also went very smoothly. The Adventurer's Guild recommended the most reputable "Strait Wind" mercenary team to Ronnie Ste. The five of them usually mainly explore the map for the principality army, although their frontal combat effectiveness is not very good. When it comes to familiarity with the terrain, it’s a no-brainer. The only problem is that the cost of hiring is not low, but whether it is low or not depends on who you are looking for. Kristen doesn’t think it is expensive.

The conditions here cannot be compared with the port city of Rotterdam in the Principality of Belgium, so Christine only rented a villa.

"Lord Baron, I brought the guide." Ronnie Stedruid said after coming in.

"Bring it in."

After a while, five people dressed as mercenaries followed Ronnie Ste into the living room.

"I salute you, Lord Baron."

Although you are not allowed to carry weapons when meeting nobles, you can tell from their fierce expressions that they are definitely not mediocre people. This is the front line against the orcs. Who can survive to this day without killing a few orcs?

Kristine nodded approvingly and said, "Ronnie Stern should have made it clear about the requirements for hiring you, but I want to remind you again that this time it is very dangerous."

One of the men who looked like a captain saluted and said, "Lord Baron, any mission on the front line of fighting the orcs is very dangerous. We are prepared."

"Then let's draw up a contract."

The priest of the God of Order had been invited here a long time ago, and now that it was confirmed, an agreement was immediately drawn up. Christine hired them as guides for three months and was paid three hundred gold coins. If it ends early, the reward will still be paid; if it is postponed, it will be paid one hundred gold coins per month.

After signing the agreement, Elena immediately handed over the bag containing gold coins. She gave them the money first to prepare them in advance. No one dared to take the nobles' money and escape after being witnessed by the great God of Order. Not after being caught. Death is so easy.

"Thank you for your generosity, Lord Baron." The mercenaries saluted again.

The next thing is very simple. The others are ready to set off after Christine compares the treasure map in her hand with the topography of Roskilde Island.

Christine is a third-level mage, accompanied by Eric Bernard, a seventh-level knight, and Ronny St., a first-level druid. They are riding a three-masted battleship. It can be said that they have been there for more than ten years. She has never encountered such a powerful treasure hunting team, so there was an endless stream of sailors applying for pilots. Finally, Christine chose two veterans from the fleet of the Principality of Wende.

Isn't it just a private job? Lord Baron Stewart gave too much.

With a pilot who was familiar with the sea conditions, the voyage was extremely smooth. All the large orc rafts or canoes encountered along the way were sunk without leaving any survivors.

The canoes of these orc raiders could carry no more than ten people, and the large rafts could only carry more than twenty people. Christine's guards are all equipped with strong bows, and they can be solved after getting close and shooting. Even if some clever ones jump into the sea in time, as long as they drop the iron hook and drag the canoe or large raft far away before discarding it, the orcs in the water will basically drown.

Orcs are not good at swimming. No matter how narrow the strait is, it is not a small river. Moreover, the smell of the blood of dead orcs will attract sea beasts.

The two navigators and the people in the "Strait Wind" mercenary team were very envious of what the Christian Guards did. It was really too luxurious.

The use of bows and arrows in naval battles is of course the first choice. However, due to the humid and salty nature of the sea, the bowstring can only last for one month, and the ordinary horn bow cannot be used in two or three months. The cost of a bow is about five gold coins, excluding arrows. It can be used on a small scale, but the Duke of Wende cannot afford it for large-scale military equipment.

So the battleship "Sari" arrived at a bay on the north side of Roskilde Island without anyone noticing.
