From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

Since the team was carrying a heavy load this time, Krober and his team traveled much slower than when they were rushing to Luoyan City.

However, this gave the people of Saint Gold Castle enough time to prepare.

After learning the news, the people of Saint Gold Castle immediately took action.

They cleared the streets, set a curfew, and organized a large number of soldiers to strengthen the security patrols of Saint Gold Castle.

These measures can not only ensure the safety and stability of Saint Gold Castle, but also prevent spies from other countries from arbitrarily exploring the country's intelligence, thereby protecting the country's secrets from being leaked.

When Krober and his team arrived at Saint Gold Castle, it was exactly midnight, which was the best time to do bad things secretly.

But what Krober did was not a bad thing, but a good thing that benefited the country and the people.

After Krober quickly stored the things he "picked up" from the Blue Flame Grass Family in the warehouse.

He immediately summoned the logistics director and the financial director and seriously told them to properly handle the follow-up matters.

He explained in detail the source and importance of these items, and instructed them to take necessary measures to ensure safe storage and reasonable distribution.

Just as Kroeber was concentrating on discussing the specific details of the materials with the two supervisors, a sudden and urgent knock on the door broke the silence of the office.

Then, the intelligence director walked in quickly with two letters in his hand, looking nervous.

Kroeber couldn't help but frown, looking at the intelligence director's expression with some confusion.

He knew that since Grand Duke Veronica borrowed almost all the spies in the country to the Emerald Kingdom, the intelligence director had become a messenger-like state.

Now he is mainly responsible for receiving some important letters, and looking at his appearance, it can be seen that the letters received this time may bring important news or emergencies.

"What's the matter? So hurried?"

Kroeber asked curiously.

The intelligence chief panted and said anxiously:

"Prime Minister, there is an emergency! The two letters from the Jade Valley have just been delivered to us, and there seems to be important information in them."

Krober took the envelope and carefully observed the logo on the cover. It was still the familiar golden dragon head logo.

However, the surface of this letter was wrinkled, and it was unknown whether there was a problem during transportation.

The second letter was decorated with a purple rose flower, indicating that this letter was a private letter written by Grand Duke Veronica to Krober.

Looking at the wrinkled letter, for some reason, Krober had an ominous premonition in his heart.

He carefully tore open the envelope, took out the letter paper and started reading.

As the contents of the letter gradually came into view, his face became more and more solemn.

"What's wrong?"

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Krober's face, everyone came forward curiously and waited for Krober to explain the contents of the letter to them.

But Krober said nothing at this time, just silently handed the letter to the person next to him.

When the others took the letter, they also showed surprised expressions.

"The Emerald Kingdom was defeated?!"

This news was not good news for everyone, especially after their own Grand Duke had officially declared war on the Mountain Copper Kingdom.

They looked at each other, with shock and worry on their faces.

"How could this happen..."

The logistics director murmured to himself, he could not accept this fact.

Everyone fell into silence, and everyone's mood became dull.

The Emerald Kingdom was defeated, and the next target of the Mountain Copper Kingdom must be the Golden Grand Duchy.

"Maybe we should re-evaluate the situation..."

After hearing this, the faces of everyone present became solemn, and a tense atmosphere filled the entire conference room for a while.

They all understood what this meant, and they also knew the price to pay for making this choice.

Everyone was silent, thinking about the current situation in their hearts.

They realized that they needed to re-examine the direction and response strategy of this war, but at the same time they also felt an unprecedented pressure surge in their hearts.

At this time, Kroeber spoke up to break the silence:

"Everyone go back and rest first, it's already late.

Come to the office tomorrow morning, we will discuss the next plan in detail, and by the way, think about how to deal with the current predicament."

Kroeber knew what these people were thinking, so he decided to appease them first and ensure the stability of the Golden Grand Duchy.

After all, the stability of the rear is crucial to the battle in the front.

He looked around with a sharp look, as if warning everyone not to act rashly.

Everyone was terrified and did not dare to look at him, for fear of angering the prime minister. After all, the new official had only been in office for a few days, and he directly burned down the castle of the Blue Flame Grass Family.

They didn't want to anger such a ruthless person anyway.

Kroeber nodded with satisfaction and said in a serious tone:

"I will arrange for the knights of the Dragon Breath Knights to strengthen patrols tonight, and none of you are allowed to leave your residence.

If anyone tries to escape or makes any other unnecessary movements, they will be charged with treason!"

Kroeber must ensure that everyone is loyal to the country and not have ulterior motives.

Although it is unclear whether these people truly support Veronica, at least he knows that he and Veronica are on the same front.

Since they were on a united front, everything he did was naturally for the Golden Duchy.

Veronica's letter did not order Krober and others to rush to the aid of the Emerald Kingdom, but continued to focus on "recruiting soldiers and defending the country."

Krober frowned, drove the supervisors back to their respective rooms, and then took out the private letter written by Veronica and read it.

"Dear Krober,

The three fortresses in the northwest of the Emerald Kingdom have been breached by the Mountain Copper Kingdom. Fortunately, the three dragon knights did not die in the battle, so the war can still be dragged on for a long time."

Krober naturally knew the situation of the three borders in the northwest.

"At present, the Emerald Kingdom is not stable. Many nobles are dissatisfied with the rule of my brother, Alvis Emerald Light.

It was only after receiving his secret letter that I decided to return to the Emerald Valley to help him guard the capital.

It has been confirmed that Edwin Bronze Fury and Liam Gray Iron have shown signs of betraying the kingdom.

I hope you can stabilize the situation in the Golden Duchy and guard against the enemies of Duke Edwin.

Finally, if you are really defeated, you can go to the Moyi Forest in the west, where I have prepared a gift for you, which can help you escape from the Golden Duchy.

Love you - Veronica Red Gold."
