The silent atmosphere spread in the king's hall, causing the air to become oppressive.
At this moment, Rozen and Gilgamesh looked at each other. Neither spoke, nor did they do anything else. They just looked at each other, motionless.
Seeing Rozen and Gilgamesh like this, the people around them looked at each other, but did not even dare to breathe too loudly.
Even Mashu, Merlin, and Anna were holding their breath. They were afraid that if they suddenly broke the silence, it would lead to a terrible chain reaction.
Under such circumstances, Gilgamesh looked at Rozen condescendingly, and his eyes slightly fluctuated.
Then …
"There are many Magical Beasts gathered at the east gate. Is this information accurate?"
Gilgamesh actually calmly asked this question.
"Absolutely."
Rozen did not say much and only gave such an answer.
"How many enemies are there?"
Gilgamesh asked straightforwardly.
"According to preliminary calculations, there should be a thousand of them."
Rozen also gave a rather straightforward answer.
"What about the types of Magical Beasts?"
Gilgamesh asked again.
"There should be about four or five of them. The one with the most number should be Ulidim. Other than that, there are also Mushu Huxiu, Mushu Mav, Ushmugal, and Ugar. But compared to Ulidim, their numbers should be smaller."
Rozen answered without hesitation or pause.
"An army of Magical Beasts led by Ulidim? Then the soldiers at the east gate should not be able to stop them, right? "
"Indeed. But on the other hand, the Magical Beasts should be able to slow down their attacks. If we deploy troops in time, we can still make it in time."
"Does this mean that we don't need to deploy troops to the front line?"
"At least not for now. Instead, we need reinforcements here. Otherwise, the east gate might be breached."
"Since it happened yesterday, it means that the Magical Beasts are almost at the east gate. Even if we deploy troops now, it will be difficult to make it in time."
"No, the terrain at the east gate is more complicated. It will take a lot of time for the Magical Beasts to pass through that kind of terrain. In that case, if we give the order now, we can make it in time before the sun sets today."
"So that's how it is. Before that, transfer troops from the west gate to hold out for a while?"
"That's right. The number of Demonic Beasts at the west gate has decreased a lot. We only need a team of about 40 people to defend it."
"This way, we can transfer the 136 idle soldiers to the East Gate. As for the route …"
"Third Street from the West Gate is the most suitable path. They should have dispersed the crowd in anticipation of a convoy passing through there, right?"
"Hu Mu, then we can let the soldiers pass as soon as possible."
"Yes."
Rozen and Gilgamesh, who were separated by a distance, suddenly had a quick and direct discussion, and the mobilization plan this time was completely clear in a few words.
That calm and efficient conversation made all the civil officials present stunned, completely dumbfounded.
Even Merlin was taken aback.
"This is really surprising. I didn't expect True Lord Ania to be able to keep up with King Gilgamesh's speed and even give such clear suggestions. How does he know the situation in Uruk so well?"
Merlin could not help but be surprised.
After all, from what Rozen said, not only did he know the terrain and current situation of Uruk like the back of his hand, he even knew the deployment of the soldiers. He did not seem at all like a visitor who had just arrived in Uruk. Instead, he seemed more like a seasoned Military Advisor who had been on the battlefield for a long time.
If Merlin was not absolutely sure that Rozen had only arrived in Uruk today, he would really suspect that this Master had been here for a longer time than he had.
Only Matthew, after a moment of shock, suddenly understood.
"I think it's because you've already memorized the situation in Uruk, right?"
Matthew said as she looked at Rozen, who was constantly discussing with Gilgamesh, with a face full of admiration.
"Senior has' Divine Eye 'that can observe the macroscopic world and' Mind's Eye 'that can observe the microscopic world. With these two abilities, he can see through all kinds of things in the forest, and even see the past, present, and future. Although it's still limited and not as good as Magic King Solomon and Mr. Merlin's' Clairvoyance ', it still allows him to completely understand the situation in Uruk."
That's it.
With that in mind, plus Rozen's quick thinking and superb tactical ability, it was not difficult for him to discuss with Gilgamesh.
The two of them had even discussed other matters.
"What should we do about the lack of weapons? According to my calculations, it's already difficult to provide enough weapons before nightfall. Now that the battle at the East Gate has broken out, it's bound to be more tense. "
"But there's no need to forge weapons from scratch. Just use the damaged weapons or weapons left on the battlefield and send a blacksmith to repair them on the spot. That's not only faster, but also more efficient."
"Then we'll have to increase the number of reinforcements. The manpower needed to recover weapons can't be done by soldiers."
"We can directly recruit manpower in the city. As long as we pay them according to the number of weapons recovered, even those who don't dare to go to the battlefield will be able to put their skills to use. It can also boost their motivation, killing two birds with one stone."
"Then just take out gold from This King's treasury as payment."
"Instead of using gold, it's better to use the food that's about to spoil as payment. In this period of time, compared to luxury goods, food that can fill one's stomach is more effective in mobilizing people. It can even be used to dispose of the stored food in time."
"Okay, let's do that. Xiduri, immediately arrange for someone to go and implement the plan we just discussed!"
"Yes!"
Hearing Gilgamesh's order, a woman wearing an ancient witch costume who was also dumbfounded came to her senses. She quickly responded and gave the order.
After that, Rozen and Gilgamesh discussed a few more matters and dealt with the cases submitted by the civil officials. Their efficiency was faster and better than when Gilgamesh dealt with them alone.
This made everyone look at Rozen differently.
"Oh my." Merlin looked at him in a different light. "This is really a pleasant surprise. I thought that Chaldea's arrival would at least be able to achieve something on the battlefield. I didn't expect him to achieve something in the internal affairs too. You're really worthy of your name, True Lord Ania."
"Senior." Matthew looked at Rozen with even more admiration.
"…" Anna lowered her head, but also looked at Rozen from the corner of her eyes, as if remembering Rozen's appearance.
This scene lasted for an unknown amount of time.
By the time the last matter recorded on the clay board was dealt with, three hours had passed.
"The next one … hasn't been presented yet?"
Gilgamesh subconsciously wanted to deal with the next matter, but then he realized that the clay board for the next matter hadn't been made yet.
"In other words, I have some time to rest now, right? Xiduri? "
Gilgamesh knocked on the armrest of the throne and said quietly.
"Yes … yes, my lord." Xiduri couldn't react in time. "There should be 20 minutes before the next clay board is made."
"20 minutes?" Gilgamesh murmured. "Okay, that's enough."
With that, Gilgamesh stretched out a finger and pointed in Rozen's direction.
On it, magic power undulated.
