    After understanding Barrett's attitude, the masked singer lowered his voice: "Do you need to take a step to speak?" Apparently this person regarded Barrett as an observer sent by the Boreham Rangers.  What tasks are responsible for the next step?  This ¡®arcane duelist¡¯ who performed in the tavern did not come here specifically for leisure. The reason why he stayed here had a special reason as Barrett had guessed before.  "Using oneself to save others", a troubadour who has never shown his face in front of others, naturally believes that Barrett is doing similar work like himself.  "It would be great if it doesn't disturb your vacation." Although he knew that the other party had misunderstood something, Barrett immediately chose to ignore the mistake.  "Old Yorker, let us use the room upstairs for a while." The masked singer turned his somewhat eye-catching mask towards the tavern owner.  The latter immediately nodded with his mouth twitching: "No, it's okay! Sir, you can go ahead and use it! This, this is my honor." The room the masked singer mentioned was not just any guest room.  Rather, it is a safe house designed to negotiate confidential matters.  If it is normal times, usage there will be charged on a quarter-hour basis.  Although it is impossible to find suitable guests for a while, the feeling of being used in vain still makes the owner of the tavern feel extremely uncomfortable.  However, this masked singer was a task that all his backers had to win over, so he could only control his emotions and smile.  But even though Barrett saw this at this time, he would not pay the price for the masked singer to use the safe house.  Because this was tantamount to a slap in the face of the troubadour. Barrett would be stupid enough to offend a black-lead senior Cruze army officer for the sake of an aboriginal whom he had only met a few times.  "Creak bang" When the big dream stuffed with cotton was closed, the sounds inside and outside the house were basically isolated.  The masked singer who opened the room said straight to the point: "If you want to ask anything, just say it. But every time I answer a question, you need to pay a roughly equivalent amount of information. Do you have any objections to this transaction method?"  "Is this your job? I don't have any objection. But how to determine the value of intelligence?" While speaking, Barrett looked at the masked singer who suddenly turned into an intelligence officer.  "With the two of us judging each other, I think you, who has also entered the black lead level, should not take advantage of such a small matter." The masked singer's voice was still calm, plus the cover-up  The mask of expression makes it really difficult to confirm the other person's true thoughts.  "The Cruze Kingdom has not organized a decent counterattack since the war started. This situation is quite abnormal. Since you are a member of the Cruze military, do you have any reliable relevant information on hand?" Barrett asked at the beginning.  Get to the bottom of what matters most to you.  Although the Kingdom of Cruze¡¯s national strength is not as good as Lucia¡¯s, although the Kingdom of Cruze¡¯s investment in the army has always been problematic, even though the Kingdom of Cruze was in a state of internal division before the war started.  But this is not the reason why he has not been beaten and has not organized an effective counterattack.  Perhaps from a military and economic point of view, the Cruze Kingdom¡¯s large-scale counterattack at this stage, even if it achieves a partial victory in a certain direction, is not worth the gain.  But war is a continuation of politics, and it would be a rather base mistake to separate it.  For the weak Cruze Kingdom, an effective counterattack is a necessary action even if there is no victory.  Through this action, the rulers can tell their subjects, ¡®Although we are temporarily at a disadvantage, we are not completely powerless to resist.  Everyone must believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to drive away the invaders.  ¡¯ For the residents at the bottom, this can bring them great confidence.  Enhance their territorial pride and national cohesion.  Even for the middle and high-level people, it is an effective flexing of muscles, allowing members who were already wavering to regain their position.  If we can still win a few battles, public opinion in the Cruze Kingdom will explode in an instant.  At that time, whether it is conscription, taxation or the deployment of civilians, the implementation will become much smoother.  Apart from being somewhat unfair to the soldiers who died in battle, it is indeed a good choice that is beneficial to the situation in the Kingdom of Cruze.  For those senior officials who control the lifeblood of the Cruze Kingdom, the lives of those soldiers are simply numbers.  Otherwise, they would not have launched the civil war so decisively.  That's why Barrett feels very puzzled by the current situation.  After a long silence, the masked singer spoke: "Ask a simple question! The reasons are very complicated, I understandThere are many situations, but they are just the tip of the iceberg.  I'm afraid it won't be of much help to you.  " "Is the news in that area so uncertain?  Barrett frowned, "You don't even have an accurate number?"  " "There are some things we can indeed inquire about, but the result of over-involvement is not good news for us.  "The masked singer shook his head. Even if he couldn't see the expression on his face, Barrett could hear his fear. But Barrett still didn't want to believe what the other party said: "  Logically speaking, it shouldn¡¯t be like this!  It is not easy to keep a secret with such a large scope.  " "If you don't want to believe it, then our conversation ends here.  Since there is no basic trust, this kind of transaction may not be able to continue.  "The Masked Singer's attitude immediately became tougher. Barrett smiled: "Isn't that because your statement is too unconvincing?  " "In that case, let's end today's conversation!  "The masked singer immediately issued an eviction order. "Then let's see you again in the future!  "In this regard, Barrett would not be so hot-faced and cold-hearted as others, and then opened the door and left without looking back. However, as he walked out of the hotel, Barrett stopped and looked back. Will be added tomorrow Georgie  After living in this world for so many years, Qiaoji has been able to speak such half-truths and half-false words without drafting them at all, in order to conceal the truth and avoid being cheated by others.  After all, if it were directly said that a war was likely to break out in the next few years, what kind of panic might it cause? Qiaoji didn't dare to rely on all parties to keep it secret.  It¡¯s hard to keep your mouth shut, but the level of preparations Qiaoji has made for the war during this period and for a long time in the future cannot be hidden from others. The people who deal with this are too complicated to do it.  It¡¯s strictly confidential. So releasing some smoke bombs beforehand to muddy the waters is a reasonable strategy. ¡°It would be great if we could wait until then.  "As he spoke, Kettlewell patted his chest gently, and the vibration caused his bulging belly to tremble. "But is it really going to happen?  " "I told you not to take chances.  By then, even if our Nohan Principality is not involved in the war, the refugees, bandits and even defeated troops that follow will be enough for our territory.  And the evil creatures among the non-human races might also take this opportunity to rob them.  So we must be prepared to deal with it from now on.  "While speaking, Georgie made a fist with his right hand and gently knocked on the desk in front of him. Kettlewell showed a bitter face: "Then this plan needs to be specially prepared to deal with emergencies when the war breaks out.  Status?  " "Although there is no special news coming back yet, we need to prepare for the worst.  To avoid being in a hurry when something goes wrong.  Therefore, there needs to be a response to an attack during the construction process, or a plan to deal with the outbreak of war and the suspension of work during the construction process, etc. These aspects need to be properly considered.  Just think of this as a form of self-training and improvement!  After you finish it, show it to me. If you want to modify it, we can wait until then.  "After saying this, Qiaoji waved his hand to indicate that the other party could go out. After turning around, a certain middle-aged fat man began to mourn the withering turf above his head. In his opinion, in the next period of time,  Those cute little guys would leave him one by one, like migratory birds flying south in late autumn. After dealing with one of the seemingly troublesome things, Georgie didn't even take a break.  He got caught up in the busyness: "Ives, arrange for these contracts to be sent to the Temple of the Lord of Justice.  "    "Yes!  grown ups.  " "Eaves, the content of this document still needs to be carefully considered and let them improve it again.  "With the sound of words, a document was thrown into Ives's arms. "Yes!  grown ups.  "Then the other party's footsteps were heard again. "Eaves" "Yes!  grown ups.  " Qiao Ji soon sent all the matters that took a lot of time to solve to the civil servants for consideration, discussion, and improvement. In short, under the pretext of training the abilities of his subordinates, Qiao Ji  Ji pushed one-third of the matters that needed to be dealt with today to tomorrow and let the bureaucrats solve the remaining quarter before taking a break at noon.Instantly free yourself from the complicated and busy government affairs.  Today¡¯s lunch specially prepared rose sheep heart.  Thread the lamb heart slices on a baking skewer and dip them in rose salt water while grilling, and grill over an open flame repeatedly.  Although you can no longer find fresh rose petals in autumn, it is still relatively easy to find dried rose petals as a kind of aromatherapy material.  At the same time, the staple food was also replaced by pine nut porridge.  Originally, I should have used millet, but it was a pity that Qiaoji just bought it because of his current situation. He had never even seen that thing.  This is a diet recipe that Qiaoji learned before traveling through time to help calm his mind.  Although I don¡¯t know if it will be of any use in this world, I still do it in the belief that it is better to use it than to use it at all.  After a short lunch break, Qiaoji placed a charcoal pot in front of him, in which in addition to the lit charcoal, the animal bone was burned.  Immediately afterwards, Qiaoji began to call his mother through the new spirit in his sea of ??consciousness.  Although this statement is a bit strange, in a sense, the thunderbird spirit that gave birth to this spirit seed is its mother.  Although Qiaoji still doesn¡¯t know whether the other person¡¯s gender is male or female.  Even according to the previous transaction, the thunderbird has already cut off the connection with this spirit on a spiritual level.  This is Qiaoji's request to ensure his own safety and the independence of Jingjing.  But since this new source of soul is the other party, then as long as you call through it, you can respond to the other party.  Although other connections are gone, the function as coordinates still exists. The thunderbird named Isadore even sat down to explain this point.  As for why you need to specifically contact the spirit that you have worked with before, why can't you just find another one casually?  In fact, if it was just to raise a question, it wouldn't matter much if Georgie casually called on the thunderbird spirit.  Although all Thunderbird Essences basically belong to the absolutely neutral main camp, as long as there are enough trading items, you can get what you want.  But the one Georgie came into contact with before seemed to have a tendency towards kindness and was a more talkative type.  And since we have interacted with each other once, it should be smoother for them to get in touch with each other once they are familiar with each other!  It didn't take long for the other party's neutral voice to appear in Qiaoji's mind: "It turns out to be you, young man! Is there any problem? Or is there some kind of deal waiting for me?" "This kind of inoculation of spirits  The method seems to have some side effects." Qiaoji also replied mentally.  With experience, Georgie is completely familiar with this behavior.  "Are there any side effects? How could there be any side effects? Aren't those druids using it well?" Isadore exclaimed.  If the other party has an expression, it must be very exciting now.  "Oh! Do other people also use this method of spiritual grafting?" Qiaoji seemed to be interested as if he had discovered a new toy.  "Otherwise, I would have stopped you in the first place. If you died, my deal would have been ruined. We Thunderbird spirits are not devils, and we cannot benefit from the dead." The other party's muttering was still quite obvious.  of.  (To be continued.)
