Chapter 749 Preparation Before Expansion
The next morning, Vicente met the 91 Sovereigns of Dresbert at the headquarters of the Sentinels of the Order.",
By this time, all the members of the former Dresbert Magicians' Society were aware of the changes brought about by Vicente and his companions, as well as the new name of their group.
At this meeting, the 91 local leaders just listened to Vicente speak, informing them of what was going to happen over the next few days. Between today and tomorrow, they were to prepare groups containing Sovereigns and Mages, who would take up positions around the territory Vicente was going to conquer.
Today and tomorrow, he would stay in Dresbert to build armor, firearms and other artifacts to help the sentinels of the city, but after that, he would set out to conquer at least an area up to 30 kilometers away from the city limits.
He had seen how weak the locals were and much of the population was suffering from the terror of having monsters so close to the city. He wanted both to give the locals a breath of relief and to regain an area that was necessary to maintain the local food demand.
Dresbert was an agricultural city, so it would have to use this characteristic to its advantage to negotiate with other cities that had unique characteristics. If there was no food reserve left, it would have nothing to offer other places!
Even if the continent was amid a crisis, no one acted simply out of pity. Certainly, many magicians wanted to help maintain their community as they knew it, but they would certainly prefer and be more sincere in following agreements that had their advantages.
This was the case for Vicente, who could get people for the Cataclysm Order and prevent the arrival of many monsters in the south of the continent, but also for Dresbert's future partners.
To maintain an area of up to 30 kilometers in radius, he would naturally have to exterminate the monsters in the vicinity and have groups of soldiers position themselves around this territory.
Then the local groups would have two days to prepare, while he hoped to receive all the local high-value materials in those two days to prepare the local forces.
