In the next few days, Alan and Sarah were busy around the "Angry Fortress". Sarah used her profound knowledge of magic to set up a complex defense system for the entire fortress. She summoned four light orbs, each with different magical powers, and they constantly rotated in the sky above the mountain, remaining vigilant for any potential invasion.
These orbs not only could detect enemies in time, but also trigger trap spells to provide the first line of defense for the fortress. In addition, Sarah also cast reconnaissance spells to sense any slight movements and changes in the surroundings.
At the same time, Alan was not idle. He searched for usable materials such as wood, cloth, and so on in the surrounding mountain areas. His strength made this labor easy, and soon he collected a large amount of resources. These resources were used by Sarah to reinforce the fortress structure and provide them with more living and working space.
During this time, Alan felt Sarah's magical abilities. He saw Sarah simply wave her hand, and the wood and cloth automatically combined and transformed, eventually turning into brand new furniture or building materials. This sight made him more certain and trusting of Sarah's abilities.
With the gradual improvement of "Angry Fortress," the cooperation between Alan and Sarah has become more tacit. They know that in order to fight against Four Symbols and the corrupt noble class, they need more preparation and planning. But at least now, they have a strong base from which to begin their resistance.
During the gradual formation of "Angry Fortress," Alan did not neglect the construction of defense facilities. Using his strength and wisdom, he created a series of defense works around the fortress. Although these facilities are made of simple materials, they have become strong and effective under Alan's skillful hands.
He first established a rough but solid fence, made of thick wooden stakes arranged in a crisscross pattern, not only to block direct attacks from invaders but also to serve as a warning. Then, he dug a deep trench outside the fence, filled with sharp stakes and other obstacles, posing a significant threat to anyone attempting to cross the barrier.
In addition, Alan took advantage of the soil and terrain, secretly setting up several earth-made traps around the fortress. These traps were cleverly concealed beneath the ground, and once triggered, would securely ensnare the enemy.
Although these defense facilities may not look magnificent, and even a bit rough, they were all carefully designed by Alan based on his own experience and understanding of tactics. With the cooperation of Alan and Sarah, "Angry Fortress" has not only become their residence, but also a strong fortress capable of resisting external attacks.
With such preparation, "Angry Fortress" has become not only a safe haven, but also a strong front line for Alan and Sarah to resist the oppression of Four Symbols and the nobles. They know that although the current facilities are far from perfect, this is already a good start. As their strength continues to grow, this fortress will gradually become the core base of their resistance movement.
After three days of hard work, Alan and Sarah's diligent efforts finally paid off. "Angry Fortress" is no longer a simple shack, but has transformed into a larger and more well-equipped wooden house.
The structure of this wooden house has been carefully designed, appearing sturdy and exquisite on the outside. The interior space has been reasonably divided and arranged, featuring not only a comfortable living room and bedroom, but also a dedicated storage room and kitchen. The furniture has also been put in place, from simple wooden tables and chairs to soft beds, each one cleverly decorated and reinforced by Sarah's magic, making the entire living environment both practical and comfortable.
The most noteworthy change is the transformation of the War Council Chamber. The room now houses a massive table with a detailed map of The Kingdom of Asturias spread across its surface. Various tactical charts and plan sketches adorn the walls, displaying the duo's scheming and preparations for future actions. This room not only serves as their place for discussing strategies and plans, but also symbolizes their steadfast commitment to the resistance movement.
"The Fortress of Fury" has now become a complete command center, providing not only a safe haven for Alan and Sarah but also a solid backing for their resistance movement. Here, they can strategize their next moves, gather more like-minded warriors, and collectively stand against the oppressors.
Alan and Sarah stood in the War Council Hall, facing the huge map placed in the center. Their gaze wandered over the densely packed place names and borders. This map detailed the geography and political landscape of the Riviera Continent, with the most striking feature being the The Kingdom of Asturias occupying the central, northern, and a small portion of the southern region of the entire continent.
The Kingdom of Asturias appeared formidable on the map. Its territory was vast, controlling major transportation routes and resource-rich areas on the continent, including rivers, mountains, and farmlands. The heart of the kingdom's territory was a thriving region, with a concentration of cities, fortresses, and temples of The Sacred Church, serving as the political and religious center of the entire continent.
In the southern part of this map, the territory of the Beirano Federation is marked. Compared to the grandeur of the Kingdom of Asturias, the territory of the Beirano Federation appears relatively small, but their presence is like a clear stream throughout the entire continent, forming a sharp contrast with Asturia. The federation's territory is filled with greenery, and in terms of technology and magic research, they have their own unique achievements.
Sara pointed out certain key locations on the map, analyzing the strengths and weaknesses between these two major powers, as well as their potential strategies. Alan focused on listening, occasionally offering his own insights. They both knew that understanding the distribution of the opponent's forces and weaknesses is crucial to achieving victory in the upcoming struggle.
On this vast continent, every piece of land, every city, and every river could become the key to future wars. And now, Alan and Sarah are standing at the starting point of this future struggle, gazing at the map that represents the fate of millions of people, contemplating their next move.
