Farming with Entries: From Lord to Emperor Chapter 204 - 159: Night Language Association

...

...

"The Night Language Association you instructed has already begun to form."

Durant responded.

The important matter Rod referred to was establishing his own intelligence organization.

No matter when or where, information is always the most crucial component.

Intelligence is like a beacon in the night, allowing Rod to see where the road lies.

The value of intelligence is not just in understanding enemy movents but also in discovering potential threats and opportunities.

It’s useful not only in warfare but also in the business realm.

But now, Rod’s information is very limited, and he has no idea what’s happening outside.

This puts him in a passive position, making Rod feel very insecure.

This is also the main reason for assigning Chris to establish an outpost on Razor Plain.

In fact, nobles often have a habit of establishing intelligence organizations, and this is also part of Rod’s plan.

Currently, the situation in Eagle Territory is relatively chaotic, and everything is being reshuffled. Naturally, Rod cannot miss this good opportunity.

"Night Language Association?"

"The na was applied for by Gang Le. If you don’t like it, we can change it," Durant said proactively.

"Let’s go with this."

Rod hadn’t intended to give his intelligence organization a na.

It seed unnecessary since they would be serving him, not so information brokers.

On closer thought, having a na is indeed convenient.

Perhaps in the future, when it actually develops, Rod could manage only the core mbers of the organization, while the peripheral mbers only need to know they belong to the Night Language Association.

However, this na doesn’t sound like a legitimate organization.

Durant took out two sheets of parchnt from his pocket and spread them out on the table.

"As per your instructions, this one contains the list of soldiers we left in Eagle Ridge."

Pointing to the other sheet, Durant introduced, "This one records people willing to join us, who will stay in Eagle Ridge, while their families will settle in Frost Leaf Town."

Rod nodded in satisfaction.

This was the initial plan set.

After all, Rod’s soldiers were all unfamiliar faces; no matter how chaotic it is in Eagle Ridge, strangers stand out.

It would be better to choose people directly from Eagle Ridge.

Those having a hard ti, Rod promised them and their families a prosperous life.

And they only needed to stay in Eagle Ridge and organize the information they heard to send to Black Pine Ridge.

"Tell those who have been sent out not to rush, just settle down first."

Rod folded the list and put it away, instructing, "Their most important task now is to live well, integrate into Eagle Ridge, and not to do anything else."

Gathering information is a continuous task, not a simple assassination mission.

Initially, survival is the primary concern.

"Those willing to work for us, we must treat their families well."

"Have Lawrence assign them so high-scoring work tasks."

Frowning, Rod thought for a mont and added, "But still, don’t reveal their identities to Lawrence."

"You... suspect Lawrence?" Durant asked, sowhat surprised.

Rod laughed and waved his hand, "Not exactly."

"It’s just that such matters don’t concern him much, and since it’s a very confidential matter, the fewer the people who know, the better."

Rod explained.

Additionally, Rod plans to gradually separate military and logistics, establishing independent departnts, rather than mixing them as they are now.

"You’re right."

Durant nodded in agreent.

Just as Durant finished speaking, a guard hurriedly ca in to report.

"Lord, Wolfhoof has captured two more mixed blood scouts."

Rod nodded, "Durant, you handle the interrogation."

The first three mixed bloods already disclosed everything they knew; there wasn’t much novelty left.

Rod wasn’t too interested, but the interrogation was still necessary.

"Understood, Lord Baron."

Durant bowed out after receiving the orders.

After he left, Vivian, who had been pretending to doze, stretched and gave a long yawn.

During the day, she would seek opportunities to rest, while at night, she remained awake, guarding Rod.

Looking at Vivian’s tired face, Rod frowned slightly.

Rod offered, "During the day in the manor, you don’t have to follow all the ti. If you’re tired, just go rest."

Vivian waved her slender hand,

"I’m fine, I can just take a quick nap."

Saying that, Rod took out a lollipop from his leather pouch and put it in his mouth, then spoke again,

"My sister ntioned that Lord Baron has a ring, which seems to be so kind of magical equipnt,"

"She recently discovered a book specifically describing various magical equipnt, discussing alchemy and techniques for making various magical items."

"Do you need my sister’s help to take a look?"

"Yes."

Rod gently nodded and took out the ring he found at the Sea Abyss Wizard Tower from his pocket to hand it to Vivian.

Vivian received the ring with both hands, holding it in her palm as she walked to the window.

In the sunlight, she squinted her eyes, carefully observing the ring using the light, morizing the detail patterns and edges in her mind.

In reality, it wasn’t Vivian who needed to see it.

Instead, she needed to rember these details and share this information with Avril in her mind.

anwhile, Avril on the other side was flipping through the books, searching for possible clues.

Rod did not disturb them and quietly waited.

After observing for a long ti, Vivian finally finished and returned the ring to Rod.

"Please wait."

She took a strong suck on the candy in her mouth and added, "My sister is still checking."

Rod took back the ring, smiling as he nodded.

This prolonged process felt very familiar to Rod.
