Chapter 763: Nochima’s Defense Is Impregnable!
This kind of negotiation situation is the most embarrassing.
Because there is no problem on either side!
Prince Vladin couldn't find anything wrong with what Nochma said, but he had to praise him because Marquis Nochma was really very vigilant.
Some noble leaders within the kingdom have been in peace for a long time. In order to facilitate business or other activities, they will even cut corners on the "personnel and material inspection" matter that should be very important.
For example, under normal circumstances, every new face that appears within the aristocratic territory should be checked and registered to prevent cultists from infiltrating.
Just like the three frontier leaders did on the defensive line.
But because it is too troublesome to do so.
Some noble lords began to turn a blind eye and assumed that there would be no problem with anyone entering their territory and would let them all pass.
Marquis Nochma has been strictly implementing this requirement.
When they arrived at Noqima Territory, Vladin and the others were also asked to stay and wait for inspection and registration. However, two important figures, Nicole Ceylan who was accompanying him and the leader of the Griffin Army, came forward to guarantee that they were allowed to do so. Skip the wait and go directly to the Marquis Castle.
Vladin turned to Nicole to confirm the situation.
"Is it true that this kind of new car cannot be sold in Ceylon?"
Nicole nodded helplessly: "Your Highness, this question is a little troublesome to explain because it involves the basic knowledge of discrete arcane magic."
"In short, you can understand that before we complete the optimization, the driver of the new car not only needs to be a spell caster, but he also needs to know the knowledge of discrete arcana so that when the device malfunctions or has problems, he can repair and adjust it in time. "
"If you don't know how to deal with it, it's a trivial matter to stop and break down. If the device is unstable and an accident such as an explosion occurs, it will be troublesome."
"It's not that we don't want to sell it, but we really can't sell it now unless we also 'sell' the driver who comes with the car package."
"But Noqimahou was unwilling to accept such buying and selling conditions. He insisted that he only wanted the car, not the people."
Vladin pinched his teeth and took a breath of cold air uncomfortably.
"This stick!"
Ceylon collar does indeed have no problem.
The crux of the problem lies in the stubborn and stubborn character of Marquis Nochma.
Although people from the Ceylon Territory could directly sell this new car to the Marquis of Nochma, what they were selling was clearly bombs that would explode at unknown times.
Discrete arcane knowledge or something.
Vladin had heard Nicole and Gale discuss a few sentences before. He could understand every word, but when they were connected into sentences, he would feel like "do these two people still speak lingua franca?" Feel.
There are many believers in the Church of Knowledge who know nothing about discrete arcane knowledge.
Not to mention outsiders.
For someone like Ford, even though his job is just to drive a new car, in fact, this is definitely a skilled job in Ceylon, and it also pays well!
Because in fact, while he is a driver, he also has multiple responsibilities such as repairman, rescuer, and maintenance worker.
…
"Forget it, forget it!"
Prince Vladin waved his hand helplessly and decided not to dwell on this issue.
He could not persuade Marquis Nochma.
Not to mention him, his father Kenredin had a hard time getting Marquis Nochma to change his mind. This guy's stubbornness was famous throughout the kingdom.
How stubborn can you be?
Some important industries in Noqima Territory include the storage and sale of daily necessities such as food, salt, and oil, various ores, and most importantly, various materials needed to cast divine spells and magic.
All these things were personally managed by the Marquis of Nochma and appointed by his confidants.
From out-of-town acquisition, to transportation and storage, to sale within the territory.
All aspects are handled by people whom Marquis Nochma trusts.
In Noqima Territory, these industries are prohibited from private operation, and merchants are also prohibited from selling or purchasing privately. Violators will be directly punished with high fines and a period of imprisonment.
According to Marquis Nochma, this was the approach he took just to be on the safe side.
Judging from the results, this iron-blooded and high-pressure policy is indeed effective.
Ever since he accepted the canonization and guarded the border, no cultists had caused trouble in this area, and every once in a while, a few guys with ulterior motives would be caught trying to infiltrate and lurk in.

Later, even the cultists became smarter and knew who would come here and who would be caught, so they simply gave up trying to infiltrate the Nochma Territory.
Every year after the red tide of monsters ends, the Nochma Territory is also the fastest among the three border territories when it comes to cleaning up the remaining wandering monsters in the territory.
Because this matter was simply led by Marquis Nochma himself, there was no need to wait for the mercenaries and adventurers to accept the commission piecemeal, and there was no need to wait for the Crusaders to rest, adjust, and purify the pollution. Marquis Nochma was like a The God of War, as soon as the defense line is down, he will continue to devote himself to the work of fighting the monsters in his territory.
This time I met Marquis Nochma and after chatting about the new vehicles, he proudly invited Prince Vladin to visit the newly renovated border defense positions.
"Your Highness, I can assure you and your Majesty!"
"From now on, until the day I am too old to carry a knife and kill monsters, the border of the Marquis of Nochma will never fall!"
"In recent years, almost all the border subsidies and grants sent by His Majesty have been used by me to strengthen the border defense line!"
"The defense capability of the Nochima Line has been greatly improved, far exceeding the previous level!"
"The solid rock from the Northern Kingdom is used as the base of the defense wall, the thickness is doubled, and the height is tripled!"
"Filled with slime secretions produced in the Deep Region, 15 architects who are proficient in divine arts regularly bless the walls with divine arts to strengthen them!"
"Behind the defense line, there are warehouses for logistics, food supply points, rest areas, treatment points for glow priests, and weapons. The equipment repair center and material collection point have been expanded, and the scale has reached 2 to 3 times the previous level! Under the premise of continuous fighting, the King's Army and the Holy Army will be able to supply them with enough to fight monsters for two weeks. It is absolutely an over-standard arrangement! "
"The Nochima defense line is impregnable! This will become the most solid barrier of the kingdom. Those evil monsters will never be able to cross this defense line again!"
The Marquis said it with a solemn oath, and he was quite stubborn and said that Prince Vladin must go with him to see the current state of the Nochima border defense line and see the results he has made on the border over the years.
Prince Vladin really couldn't beat this stubborn Marquis, so he had to agree.
