I'm the King Of Technology

Chapter 618 - Enemies From All Angles

Landon sat in silence alongside the spies and waited for Lucius to arrive.

Apparently, he was out.

Of course as the main boss of the barracks, he had a massive waiting room with 4 secretaries working there each shift.

The waiting room could seat up to 50 people at once, and even had its own bathroom too.

Most of the time, people weren’t here to actually see Lucius.

Nope!

They were there to get several doc.u.ments or assignments from Lucius.

Typically, only teachers or top military personnel would come here to see if any requests that they submitted had been approved or rejected.

At times, it was to make reports on aggravating matters like reporting the matter of international spies and so on.

Anyway, for series cases like these... all they had to do was tell the secretary’s the word: ’Hades’

And the secretaries would know that it was a matter of life and death... Or that it involved Baymard’s overall safety.

So the moment Landon and the spies came in, one of them said the code word to one of the secretaries there.

From there, the secretary quickly looked at Lucius’ schedule and made a phone call to the office or region he was at.

He was currently within the military warehouse, so they called someone there, who later went into the warehouse and told Lucius the code too.

With that, the rest was history.

.

"You all are back!

And just to be sure, were you the ones that issued the code?"

"Yes, Commander King-Father Lucius!" The spies replied in unison while watching Lucius calmly walk into the waiting area.

"Good!

Oh?

Excellent!

Your majesty, you’re also here as well!"

"Yes, I wanted to discuss something with you.

Coincidentally, I met them here too."

"Wonderful!

This will save the trouble of having to send for you.

Now, let’s get into my office first."

With that, Lucius briefly went towards the secretaries to confirm that they were indeed the ones who issued the code before finally opening his office door.

No matter what, he had to ask the secretaries as per protocol... Even if Landon and the rest had confirmed it.

’Bam!’

Lucius’ office door was shut tightly, and now there was room for privacy.

His office was huge for mission distribution purposes and so on.

There was also a hidden bed there, just in case he had to work all night long.

As soon as everyone was properly seated, the spies gave a detailed summary of all their findings.

And when they were done, they took off... leaving Lucius and Landon alone in the office.

"Hmmm

They said that they saw a little over 25,000 men.

But they also said that maybe some of Alec’s men had arrived way before they were sent out.

So we could be looking at double that amount." Landon said calmly.

"50,000?"

"Hmhm... 50,000 men." Landon states again.

In his opinion, whether Alec was a terrible ruler or not, the fact still remains that he is a Ruler.

So that amount isn’t hard for him to come up with.

.

The corners of Lucius’ mouth slowly lifted up all of a sudden, revealing a sly smile on his handsome face.

Landon looked at him in confusion.

"Why are you smiling?"

"Hahahahaha... I just find it laughable.

Actually, it’s not that I’m shocked by the numbers.

No... I’m more shocked by how much he has underestimated Baymard."

"What do you mean?"

"Brat!

When I first started working under him, he would send over 300,000 ~600,000 men to fight battles with other empires.

In fact, 50,000 is really too small a moment for the mighty Alec Barn.

Actually, even though he ruled the people with fear, under his reign, Arcadina’s land size increased.

And this was all thanks to the huge amount of forces he had sent out to battle constantly.

We lost so many people in the war, but that didn’t stop Alec’s momentum at all.

He even created several secret estates that were filled with p.r.o.s.t.i.t.u.t.es and young women whose jobs were to birth warriors.

His men would ravish them, get them pregnant and they would be trained at the age of 7 to be knights.

Well, I never got to see these estates since I was always on the battlefield within the borders.

But some of my colleagues always told me of their experiences there.

So 50,000 shows that he doesn’t believe that we have a chance at winning.

And if it were 25,000, we might even be seen as dog poop in his eyes.

But it’s that overly confident nature of his that will be the end of him.

Hahahhahahahaha!

He might just have a heart attack from the whole ordeal." Lucius said happily.

Ah....he had been waiting for this day for a very long time.

Lucius is looked at Landon and leaned forward while placing his hands on his cheeks playfully

Speaking of it, are you going to follow the ’Young Master’ (Oden Barn) back to the Capital after the battle?"

"Nope!

We will send out some men to drive them there and protect them at all for 18 days.

By then, I expect William to have settled down and gotten rid of all pests in his way.

I know what you’re thinking, but there’s nothing for you to worry about.

Before we left his main base, he had already informed his men to lay in wait around the Capital for his return.

So all those close to the Capital should already be there or on their way there as we speak."

"Hmmmmmmm

That’s good then.

It seems like the Younger Master (William) is prepared." Lucius said, before sighing from relief.

"Yup!

After the battle, he and his family will leave 2 days later for the Capital without me.

Also, how can I leave when the wedding is coming up?

Do you want Josh, Gary, Mark and Trey to kill me?" Landon said helplessly.

Was Lucius trying to set him up?

They would definitely kill him if he was absent!

.

The guys had already planned to have a joint wedding towards Spring’s end.

Spring ended on June 21st and the wedding was on June 3rd.

So he dated not leave until after their wedding.

Speaking of weddings, Santa & Penelope’s own would be by Summer’s end.

And if he wasn’t mistaken, it was on September 12th.

For sure, he and his family would use hot air balloons once they reach the Coastal city in order to save travel time.

Additionally, before Santa’s wedding... William might have his coronation too.

So he would have to go to Arcadina’s Capital city for the ceremony, as well as the treaty reveal.

And after Terique’s issues were sorted out, wouldn’t he also have to go there too.

He didn’t know the exact time when Nopline would attack Baymard.

But he knew that It was within Springtime.

Today was May 13th, and Spring ended on June 21st.

So he felt like within the next few weeks, Terique’s fleet might pop out at any given time.

That’s why he requested for the coastal guards to sail out and stay on the water borders of Baymard.

And the moment they saw the fleet, they were to inform the rest.

Baymardian sh.i.p.s were fast compared to those used by the enemies.

So it might even take close to 2 hours before the enemy ship actually reaches the shores of Baymard.

But who will give them that opportunity?

The navy and marines would quickly sail out to meet them there on open waters.

No one is reaching his shores!

Sigh... There was just so much to do.

.

"Alright!

Now that we have everything planned out, it’s time to give out assignments to the men!"
