Raymond calmed down and said to his three subordinates: "Since the barrier has been closed again, and we have no colleagues in the magic department, it is impossible to follow them into it. However, it is now certain that the two forces are in a hostile relationship, which is the biggest gain tonight."
"Indeed." Tiger Stick nodded in agreement, "In this way, the security of our territory will be greatly improved."
"That's right, how can we allow others to snore beside our bed." Raymond's eyes flashed a chill.
At present, there is only one day left for the protection shield of the territory, so we must always grasp the dynamics of the two time bombs to prepare for a rainy day.
Especially the forces in the mysterious barrier, which have not yet emerged, and everything is unknown. But judging from its attack just now and the frequent disappearance of human troops before, this force must be not simple.
And the sudden orc army is also a big worry, and it cannot be ruled out that the other side's reinforcements will appear later.
In short, no matter which force it is, as long as it threatens himself, even if it is only a little bit, once the time is right, Raymond will ruthlessly eliminate it.
Thinking of this, Raymond's mouth twitched.
"Is it so difficult to develop in a low-key manner in this forest? When can I, a little lord who has just traveled through two days, really stand up?"
Reluctantly shaking his head, Raymond pulled his thoughts back to reality, thought for a while, and said: "As for the next action, we need to proceed in two directions."
Then, he turned to Tiger Stick and ordered: "Tiger Stick, after returning to the territory, you must immediately track the marching trajectory of this half-orc army, and make sure to investigate their origins for me tonight."
"Yes!" Tiger Stick clasped his fists and said seriously.
Raymond nodded slightly, and then said to the twin sisters: "Nanxing Nanyue, your task is to take turns to monitor the entrance of this barrier. Once you find any abnormal movement, report to me immediately by telepathy."
"Yes!" Nanxing Nanyue stepped forward and said in unison.
Everything was arranged properly, and Raymond's eyes fell on the corpse of the half-orc soldier under the tree.
Originally, he wanted to go down to pick up equipment and upgrade, but considering that he would expose himself, he had to give up in the end.
"Okay, everyone, work harder tonight and act according to the plan." After Raymond finished speaking, he felt his body lighten and was picked up by Tiger Stick again...
A few minutes later, Raymond returned to the territory smoothly.
The camp was silent, with only the night wind blowing. The other first-level subordinates had rested, and the campfire site had been cleaned up.
Raymond checked the subordinate statistics panel and found that the loyalty of 80 first-level subordinates had risen to more than 90 points.
Next, Raymond simply washed up and returned to the lord's mansion. Since the new recruitment order will not be refreshed until the morning, and the medicinal effect of the Qi Condensation Pill in his body has not been fully absorbed, he lay on the bed to recover his strength.
No words were spoken that night. The next morning, the sun shone into the room. Raymond sat cross-legged and focused his mind on the energy vortex in his lower abdomen.
Sensing that the medicinal power had been completely absorbed, Raymond threw the prepared Qi Condensation Pill into his mouth without hesitation.
In the face of a strong enemy, improving strength is the key. One more star increase means one more possibility of survival.
The next second, the magic potion entered the body, and after a moment of gentleness, it became violent again. However, Raymond was prepared. With a slight movement in his heart, he began to forcibly separate a part of the medicine power and introduce it into the energy vortex that was much more condensed.
In this way, after more than ten times of repetition, the medicine power finally poured into the energy vortex and merged with it.
Raymond slowly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed. He clearly felt that his strength had been raised to a new level, his fatigue was swept away, and his vision and hearing were also enhanced.
Taking a deep breath, Raymond opened the attribute bar.
[Name: Raymond]
[ID: 0013076067]
[Occupation: Lord]

[Talent: Gold Finger Lv: 1]
[Skills: None]
"Another three stars have been raised. It seems that it is not far from reaching the peak of the first level or even breaking through the second level." Raymond stood up and simply moved his body.
Feeling the power surging in his body, he smiled. This feeling of becoming stronger is pleasant.
In his joy, Raymond came to the first floor of the mansion, calmed down, and started the most important part of the day.
"Get today's recruitment order!"
The next second, Raymond looked at the five extra first-level recruitment orders in his hand, and couldn't wait to go to the storage space to upgrade.
[Congratulations, your "first-level recruitment order" has been upgraded to "first-level recruitment orders" 96! ]

Looking at the newly appeared 400 first-level recruitment orders and 1 third-level recruitment order, Raymond showed a look of tears and laughter
