The Kingdom of Karen was now in a period of strong development. A stable foundation was the prerequisite for the country's future prosperity. If they could live peacefully for the next ten years, as long as the class structure and corruption were not so serious, the country's foundation for the next hundred years could be guaranteed.
But this could only be judged if the Dimensional War had not broken out. Roddy was most afraid that Kazvara would not give the world time to react. Every minute and every second now was fought for by him and the Dragons. If the demons successfully invaded and launched a large-scale war, the whole world would probably be wiped out like Europe after the Black Death. How many people would be left was another matter.
To be cautious, Roddy intended to deal with the Orcs' strange movements seriously. He wrote to Sodelor specifically. His purpose was not only to deal with the Orcs, but also to build a "military base" in a faraway place.
This sounded a bit like what the hegemonic countries on Earth often did. But in fact, this was actually a better choice for the Kingdom of Karen, whose military was far superior to the current times.
Although the military level of the small countries in the east was not high, because of the climate and geographical conditions, their population and resources were not inferior to the southeast of the Kingdom of Karen … which was the level of the former royal area.
Direct invasion would naturally cause a backlash from other countries. But using the excuse of clearing out the Orcs, taking the opportunity to build "sentry posts" or even cultivate a puppet regime, then directly absorbing resources from these countries, releasing inflation pressure, and so on, was naturally not a problem.
The only premise was that their current regime was stable.
Roddy was in a daze for a while. He was not a brilliant politician, let alone a "politician". It was just that in this position, thinking about these things was not something he was passionate about.
"Do you need a pen and paper now?"
Camilla asked. Roddy shook his head. "Let's talk about it at night. I'll go back and write it."
Seeing that he was a little tired, Camilla whispered, "Is it hard to deal with?"
"It's just that sometimes it's meaningless. Although we have planes, cannons, and the support of the Dragons, these wars with the demons are no different from animals fighting for territory and hunting …"
Roddy sighed helplessly. "If I could survive without eating, who would care about these things? But some things just can't be helped."
He turned his eyes to the screen in front of him and said in a low voice, "These characteristics that the demons are showing now actually show that they are not considered higher life than humans, and even inferior to humans in some aspects. It's more like an ant colony or a swarm of bees. As the leader, he can command everything, while the low-level individuals will firmly guard their posts and carry out orders when they receive them … "
This was not just a conclusion obtained from observing Tyriya, but also the result of the current research of the dragons and mages on the demons. Due to the continuous invasions, there were many demons who entered this plane and were captured alive. As time passed, the habits and weaknesses of the demons were gradually discovered.
Camilla raised her eyebrows. "But it sounds like they're much more powerful than humans. After all, it's impossible for our army to be like ants or a swarm of bees that have nearly 100% execution ability. "
Mutiny and low morale could lead to defeat, but this problem did not seem to exist in the minds of the demons.
"In the era of cold weapons, they are indeed strong. Just like Tasman's undead army, endless numbers can drown everything. But … the weakness of this method is also very obvious. When we fight a war, the death of a commander will affect morale, but through certain methods, there will always be a backup commander who can take over and rely on various methods to stabilize morale and continue to carry out orders. But the demons are completely different … As long as they kill a squad leader, then the subordinates under their control will completely fall into a state of chaos, and it's even possible for them to kill each other. "
Camilla did not say anything. After a long time, she said, "I'm afraid that once they realize this weakness, they will gradually overcome it."
Roddy pointed at Tyriya on the screen. "That's why we need her."
Naturally, Tyriya, who was being pointed at, was unaware of what was happening in the outside world.
She was currently walking on the hills of Berg Village, holding a rattan basket in her hand. Beside her, Naifei carried a blanket and asked curiously, "Why are you thinking of going on an outing?"
"We're finally done with the recent matters. While Wizard Ethan isn't here, shouldn't we find a chance to rest?"
She was wearing a brown linen robe, and her long hair was scattered. She found a slightly higher ground and stopped. "Let's do it here. The scenery is very good."
"Willing to go on an outing? That's not like you in the past."
Naifei spread the blanket on the ground, and Tyriya put down the rattan basket in her hand. She began to take out different kinds of food from it. These were not exotic delicacies, but the simplest cheese, bread, sausages, and fruits.
"Phew, I feel like I'm going to grow moldy after staying in the Mage Tower all day."
Tyriya smiled as she laid out the food. She even took out two clay cups from the rattan basket and poured some water into them.
This was obviously the style of a noble lady. Naifei could not help but be speechless. She took the cup and looked left and right. Suddenly, she said, "Now that there's no one around, do you have something to say?"
Tyriya nodded. She moved closer to Naifei and whispered, "Recently, I've been hearing that voice in the Magic Tower, so I want to verify if it only appears in the Magic Tower, and if it's blocked outside."
After saying that, she raised her hand and removed a leaf stuck to Naifei's hair. Her movement was very natural. Because of their close proximity, when Naifei turned her face, she seemed to be only a few centimeters away from her.
Tyriya did not realize that there was anything wrong with this. These days, she and Naifei had almost become good friends who talked about everything, and their relationship was much closer than before.
"The situation still hasn't improved? Then … Will there be any difference here? Will it feel better when you relax? "
"I don't know. It always feels like there's no pattern —"
Tyriya suddenly froze like a statue. After a few seconds, she shivered and said with a trembling voice, "I don't know. His voice trembled as he said, "Here it comes again … This voice always wants me to learn Plane Magic as if that thing is very important …"
"Last time it was the node of a magic circle, this time it's plane spells …"
Naifei looked at her pale face and knew that Tyriya was indeed afraid. She reached out and stroked her back. Naifei continued, "Could it be that there's something in your heart that you want to achieve?"
