Starting Life as a Baron

6: The First Prince's Shock and Appreciation

"A mage squad?! "

Alan was shocked. The mage was a noble profession. He had heard that powerful mages had the power to destroy the world.

Having a team of mages was like having a missile in the era of cold weapons on the Earth.

"Hey, we are the main characters on the battlefield!"

Lexie said proudly.

Alan immediately laughed and said, "So that's how it is!"

Suddenly, he regained his spirit.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the port to board the ship.

According to Earl Albert’s order, all parts of the Lane Principality had begun to send armies one after another. Everyone was heading towards the Blue Moon Principality.

Boarding the ship right now was just enough to keep up with the main force.

Of course, some armies would continue to go to the battlefield in the future.

"Alan, you are so lucky to be with the prince."

Elon was also standing at the port. He was wearing knight armor, and he seemed to be in high spirits.

"It's alright."

Alan said indifferently. Elon really did not know what to say at this moment.

Before Alan was sixteen, the focus of the world was on him. However, ever since Alan left the Thorn Flower Territory and became the Lord of Rose Town, he found that Alan had become the focus of everyone.

Even this time, the prince and the princess had ignored his diligence. Instead, they were more interested in Alan.

Now that Alan was going to board the same three-masted sailing ship as the prince and the princess, Elon felt a little uncomfortable.

After all, that was the son and daughter of the Duke, and getting in touch with them would definitely bring a lot of benefits.

Elon thought bitterly.

Of course, he also knew that the reason why Alan was favored by His Highness the Prince and Princess in a short period of time was because of the wolf cavalry!

Now that news of Alan's wolf cavalry had spread, everyone praised Alan's wolf cavalry.

For a moment, Alan seemed to be the eldest son of the Earl. He became the focus of the world, and all the lords praised him. As for himself, the true eldest son of the Earl, he seemed to have become the second son, and no one cared about him…

Alan did not care about Elon's thoughts. Did he need to curry favor with any princes or princesses?

Alan expressed disdain in his heart. He still had a potion master, Nick, in his family who had offended the third prince.

Alan did not care about the status of a prince or princess. He only cared about how much credit he could get. At the same time, he only cared about the countdown of the war mission in his system.

"Countdown to War Mission: Three hours, twenty-nine minutes, seventeen seconds."

As long as he killed or defeated an enemy on the battlefield, he could earn merit points that could be used to buy some good things at the merit store.

Alan took a deep breath. After saying goodbye to Elon, he followed Leonard and the others to a three-masted sailing ship.

Except for the team of twenty mages brought by the prince and princess, there was only Alan and his wolf cavalry on the entire ship.

As for the rest of the cavalry, Alan had scattered them on ten ships.

Half an hour later, all the ships set sail at the same time and headed to the battlefield.

Alan didn't rest in the cabin. Because of the system, he knew the exact time when the war would break out and he needed to make good use of it.

Alan let Marco and the wolf cavalry relax completely for two hours.

Then he got in touch with the sea lion beasts in Rose Town in his heart.

At this moment, the sea cavalrymen who were training at the seaside of Rose Town suddenly felt the change of the sea lion beasts.

Fifty sea lion beasts roared at them at the same time.

Immediately afterward, the eyes of all the sea cavalrymen lit up.

"It's the Lord's signal! Quick, get ready and set off immediately!"

Soon, fifty sea cavalrymen rode the sea lion beasts and slowly left Rose Town.

Two hours later, Alan woke up the wolf cavalry.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!"

Alan stared at the calm sea. After half an hour, they would meet the boats of the Blue Moon Principality.

There would be a fierce battle at that time.

Although they had set out with five hundred three-masted sailboats, the sea was so vast that it was impossible to keep all the ships together.

The ships gradually spread out.

However, Albert was still very concerned about the safety of Prince Leonard and Princess Lexie, so his boat had always been nearby.

As for the others, they had already left.

"My Lord, it seems like there's no enemy?"

Marco carefully looked at the sea and found that there seemed to be no enemy.

"Don't be careless. The enemy always appears when you are most relaxed. The enemy will appear after half an hour. Send a message to the surrounding ships and tell them to be alert."

Alan whispered to Marco.

Marco revealed a surprised and cautious expression.

He did not doubt Alan's words and sent the message to the ten ships that carried Alan's cavalry.

After making all the preparations, Alan walked toward the cabin.

"His Royal Highness, I have something to tell you."

Alan told Leonard that they would encounter the enemy in half an hour and hoped he would get ready.

Leonard was astonished when he heard these words. He pointed at the chart in front of him and said, "Baron Alan, you really are a noble with keen insight. I was just looking at the chart and happened to notice that our ship will encounter uninhabited islands after half an hour."

"The terrain of these islands is complicated. Although these islands are not large, they are surrounded by mountains. There are also dense and intricate rivers between the islands which make them an excellent place for an ambush."

Alan was also very shocked when he heard these words, but he remained calm on the surface: "It turns out that His Highness the Prince has already found out. This subordinate is talking too much."

Leonard shook his head. His eyes were filled with admiration and love as he looked at Alan.

"Baron Alan, you didn't do anything wrong. I only discovered it just now. Looks like you have outstanding military talent. You will definitely be the backbone of the Principality in the future!"
