Its a miracle ' One of the construction worker whispered.

'Thank you for your information. Now go and watch out for there every movement.' Cedric send away the messenger. ' As you know now. Is the wall construction completed? How much do they need.' Cedric ask.

'To know the specific of this matter, I think we need to call young master Oliver. ' Advisor Mike suggested.

'Okay, call him right now. ' Lord Cedric.

Guards run to call Oliver, Oliver was experimenting on Glass, As it can become next hot selling commodity. It has been 20 days since he made glass. He wanted to auction glass at there region distribution sale auction. With this he will achieve maximum benefits. He has created many glass equipment.

Oliver know his father better. unless it isn't urgent he won't call him. He got on the carriage with guards and head towards his father meeting hall.

As he entered, he saw heated discussion was going on. upon seeing Oliver Lord Cedric said, 'Come Oliver, seat besides me.' he gesture him to seat on the seat besides his. Oliver confidently took the seat.

'Urgent new is regarding Ravenspire army. They have landed on our ground. They will be out of the city in 4 to 5 days.' he told Oliver about recent development and let him digest the fact, then continued, ' Now Oliver tell me, Can we complete the construction of wall before there arrival?'

Upon thinking for long, ' They come so soon, I estimated to get another 10 days for completion, up to this point we have completed the surrounding city wall. Now we have started the construction of of our gates. As you know North gate is small among them so it is nearing completion. About other three gate. Sour and east is medium in size. I can also install them in 3 to 4 days. but the major problem is West gate which is our entry point. I will have to divert all the energy towards this if we want to complete this in time. But I feel time won't be sufficient. ' Oliver said .

All the present personnel were happy to here that surrounding city wall has been built completely. Although they also saw the speed of building the city wall. but still they were amaze at the marvel of binding material cement. But now the started worrying about gates. If the gate cant hold the people outside then there is no point in building all the city wall.

'Oliver, Is there any contingency plans we can use in case construction in a half way? ' Advisor Mike ask.

'Yes, if our west gate take time to install then we will seal that with brick and stone for now, after the fight we can again install the gate.' Oliver said.

'That a relief, Now what about our new weapon Ballista and crossbow.' Lord Cedric.

'My lord, to this date, with the help of craftmans and blacksmiths, we have 20 ballista ready to mount on city wall. We have also created 1500 crossbow and starts training guards with them 10 days ago. Also we have nearly 50,000 arrow in our arsenal. Wit constant supply of high iron steel we can boost the production at any time necessary. Advisor John you will be responsible for food supply. also maintain the law and order within the city.'

Nearly 8 on west side as they will be majorly attacking from that side. all other gate will have support of 4 ballista at the moment.' With this he adjourned the meeting.
