Three days after Dean returned to the Order's residence, the Order was busy again.

In order to welcome the Midwinter Festival with two weeks to go!

Although Midwinter is only the last day of December, most lords actually prepare for this day two to three weeks in advance.

After all, on the day of Midwinter, lords in various places need to form alliances with other lords, renew covenants and exchange gifts, and moreover, there will also be a 'winter feast' in the realm, inviting people of prestige in the realm to participate, although the size of the banquet will not exceed 100 people, but it is definitely not an easy task.

More importantly, for the midwinter festival to go smoothly, safety is naturally the first priority.

Therefore, the knights everywhere, at this time, are also the busiest times.

"Commander, within a radius of thirty kilometers from Tyre Town, we can confirm that there are no robbers or bandits!"

The young captain, Celen, reported to Dean sternly.

"Well, the next step is the village!"

Dean nodded, pointing his finger at the map - Tyre Territory is made up of the town of Tyre and four villages, Tyre is located in the very center of Tyre, and the four villages are scattered around Tyre; The nearest is less than twenty kilometers from the town of Tyre, while the furthest is more than eighty kilometers.

"Huck!"

Dean looked up and called out to his deputy.

"Your Excellency!"

Huck bowed and saluted - since confirming the master-slave relationship, Huck had become more and more respectful towards Dean; After all, according to the aristocracy of jadeite. If Dean owns a territory. Then Huck is the guard knight of the family; And this is for anyone who follows the way of knighthood. It's a great honor.

Huck is no exception, of course.

Although Dean does not have a territory of his own right now.

"After that, you will lead Siren and Ike, especially near the villages near the snowy jungle, those guys like to set up camps in the jungle, and there will be no shortage of ......," Dean reminded, and then, commanding, "Bring a crossbow to each of them, if you want to be a warhorse." The purchase in the last few days is enough for both teams! ”

"Yes, sir!"

As soon as Huck bowed, he took the two young captains, Siren and Ike, to prepare and arrange; Ten minutes later, the two teams left the Knights' station.

"Although I have the skill [Military Organization] as a countermeasure, I don't have communication in the real sense, so it's really troublesome......"

Looking at the departing figure of his subordinates, Dean couldn't help frowning.

Although old Ander had received the information and had made a deal with the barbarians himself, Huck had not found a suitable pigeon from the hunter who kept the pigeons. They are all stereotyped as adults, and it is difficult to cultivate them again. It takes at least six months to develop a new pair of pigeons, and that's definitely not something Dean can wait for.

"One or two falcons are needed...... You can't start with the thieves' guild, it's too dangerous, it's easy to be spotted, and it's not safe to ship information! Near Tyre, aren't there any falconry keepers? ”

Dean thought with one hand on his chest and the other on it, supporting his chin.

The most convenient way to find falcons is, of course, the various black markets controlled by the thieves' unions.

The falcons there are sold at a clear price, and although the price is high, it is not a problem for Dean now.

However, the habits of the thieves made Dean dare not start from there.

If it was a falcon that had been 'added' and leaked some news about him, then Dean would not have time to cry, after all, the person he needed to contact with the falcon was counted seriously, and it was only one - Long Lang!

And Long Lang has to do that. Walk. Private. The passage, once it is leaked out, what will happen, Dean is naturally clear.

"Mach!"

Dean shouted to the captain of the auxiliaries who were patrolling.

"Commander, what's wrong?"

The same young auxiliary captain immediately ran over - because of the departure of Siren and Ike, there were only five people left in the entire knight station, and this still counted him.

Therefore, the vigilance and patrol tasks suddenly increased, and Maher, as the captain of the auxiliary forces, naturally needed to do it himself at this time.

Basically, you start a group of four, with one person resting, and then, every four hours, you take turns.

However, the auxiliaries had no complaints.

After all, that's what they did when the Knights of Fecharon were still under the control of Potts, and at that time they were not only underfed, but also clothed; And now, after Ye Qi has become the head of the Knights, not only is he well fed and clothed, but also his various treatments have undergone qualitative changes, of course these simple young people will not complain.

Of course, more importantly, compared with their tasks of guarding and patrolling, the tasks of the two teams of Xiren and Ike are more difficult.

Every time I came back, it was bloody, and many people were even injured.

This kind of task that will lose one's life if you are not careful, compared with their 'safe' mission, naturally there will be no one who complains.

"Did you know there are falconers nearby?"

Dean asked straight.

"Falconryman? The town of Tyre seems to have appeared, but I don't remember who it was! ”

Mach said with some embarrassment.

"Is there one? That's it! ”

Dean smiled and nodded--Mach didn't remember it, but someone would remember, not to mention, if it didn't work, Dean could go and ask Baron Tyre to help.

"Regiment, regimental commander!"

Dean, who had solved a matter in his heart, was about to leave, but just as Dean was about to turn around, Maher suddenly spoke up.

"What's wrong, Mach?"

Dean turned his head to look at the captain of his auxiliaries.

"I want to join the crusade!"

After pondering for a while, Mach said loudly as if he had mustered up enough courage.

"Oh. Why? ”

Dean turned. looked at the captain of his auxiliaries with interest—in fact. Including Maher in front of him, and Chad, who has the potential to be a marksman, are all the objects of Dean's investigation.

"I want to drive out the robbers and bandits!"

A simple answer that fits well with Mach, a young man who was a hunter.

"What else?"

Dean asked.

"It's boring here, and besides, you can't get more rewards......"

At the end, Mach lowered his head a little shyly.

For Dean, Maher's words in front of him cannot be said to be the most satisfactory answer. But the answer is absolutely qualified, after all, this young man has a goal, a desire to fight, and a lot of loyalty.

"Wait, after Midwinter, the Order will change!"

Dean patted the other party's shoulder and walked to his room, while Maher, who remained in place, scratched his head in confusion, obviously. Didn't understand the meaning of Dean's words.

The next moment, though. The young man didn't think about it, but hurried back to his post and continued his patrol - although Maher didn't know the meaning of Dean's words, he knew instinctively that it was a good thing.

And Dean, who returned to his room, opened the character panel-

【XP：373】

"It took 120 experience to increase the [Military Organization] from Lv3 to Lv5, and the experience of the previous two Great Knights brought my total experience to 453 points, and in the last two days, Siren and their crusade allowed me to gain 40 experience points......"

Dean silently calculated the gain from his experience points.

Although, at first glance, it seems that increasing the [Military Organization] is 'beyond the means' of experience point consumption, but this is only for the short term, and in the long run, it is a huge profit - [Military Organization] from Lv3 → Lv5, not only allows Dean to gain 25 morale (25% increase in combat effectiveness) when commanding soldiers, but also allows him to gain 30% experience for each soldier to kill enemies.

The additional 5% XP bonus is a special option for [Military Organization] at Lv4.

"The improvement of the level of the [Military Organization] can allow me to better feed the war with war, and the soldiers I recruit have an innate strength advantage, but the number of soldiers is ......."

Thinking of the biggest limitation at the moment, Dean couldn't help but frown.

The Knights of Fecharon, Dean is already planning to recruit at full capacity, but it is still only a hundred; If you count his followers and followers, this number is about one hundred and fifteen - although Jack should still be able to recruit a hundred and ten people from Jack with Severed Fingers, but Dean knows very well that those guys are fine stealing, inquiring about news, and knocking on a stick, and if they charge, it will definitely be a mess.

As for the barbarians?

Even if he borrowed soldiers, it was impossible for him to command them - the barbarians had their own commanders, and on the battlefield, trying to get a group of Manchurians to obey the command of an emerald man was not an impossible task, but it was definitely difficult.

"Unless it's ......"

Dean almost subconsciously thought of the Northland Beast Tamer, however, he quickly shook his head, not to mention that the other party is not now, even if it is, it is the other party's barbarian leader, and he has nothing to do with him, and it is simply impossible to rely on this to gain experience bonuses.

And for the next ten minutes, Dean still couldn't think of a better way.

In the end, he had to give up thinking about it, and instead, he continued to look down, in the skill bar, in the general one-

【Body Forging (Jade) Lv1

Suddenly appeared there.

Almost as Dean expected, under the attributes far beyond ordinary people, it took a week or so for the system to recognize this basic body forging technique.

And [Shadow Calling Technique]?

There was still no movement.
