reinforcements? Did he understand what he was saying? Tang En twitched the corners of his mouth, even if reinforcements come, it's useless if you can't get through! Or did he mean that the reinforcements were the main force that could directly level Hermes and cross over from the ruins of the Holy City? But in that case, it is impossible to prepare for a siege within a dozen days, right
But seeing the other party's expression that he obviously didn't want to continue talking about this topic, Tang En also shut his mouth wisely.
The entrance to the side of the ladder in the cloud is on the mountain wall not far from the Cold Wind Ridge. It drills through an inconspicuous cave, and the moment I see the sky again, I am already in the air. When the air is humid, this road will be covered with clouds and mists, and it will be like going to the sky when walking, hence its name.
But as long as the weather is good, the road is very reliable. In order to dissuade the First Army, he deliberately exaggerated the danger of the ladder in the cloud. In fact, because some businessmen value its tax avoidance function very much, the collapsed part is also reinforced with wooden boards and wedges, so the risk for people to pass is not high. .
In half a day, he walked back and forth three times with Nails and the others on the walls of the mountains, avoiding the rugged mountain road and the layers of the holy city, and at the same time shortening the distance, so as long as you travel lightly, the efficiency is better than The avenue is higher.
Tang En noticed that Nail had been holding a small notebook to scribble and scribble, as if recording something, but the content on it was mixed with many characters he had never seen before in addition to the usual words in the mainland. This surprised him a lot. A soldier could read and write without speaking, and he had knowledge that he couldn't understand at all. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it.
You must know that in order to learn to settle accounts and record the entry and exit of goods, he specially found a chamber of commerce and mastered the basic operations of buying and selling at the cost of a golden dragon. If Nails can read and hyphenate words, why do they need to do so much work? Although Roland Wimbledon's army is extremely powerful, war will always kill people, and no one can guarantee that they will not be the next one.
However, he found from the conversation between the two that literacy and hand-drawn maps did not seem to be "advanced skills", as if everyone in the First Army could do it.
What were these people thinking in their heads
Dunn felt increasingly incomprehensible.
Back at the camp, it was almost dusk, but there was a lot of activity around the tent. The soldiers gathered together in twos and threes, discussing something excitedly, and all their eyes were focused on the bonfire in the center of the camp.
"Looks like reinforcements have arrived," Nails grinned.
"I guess so," Uncle Sang said with a smile, "I wonder which acquaintances will come over this time?"
"Miss Lightning and Miss Maisie are definitely inside," the squad leader quickened his pace a bit, "Let's go over and take a look."
What, what... miss
The reinforcements they were waiting for were women
Tang En couldn't help following the two of them closely. After finding an open space, he looked at the crowd for a moment. He suddenly felt like he was about to faint.
What the hell is this reinforcement!
That's clearly a few little devils!
Especially the guy whose hair was dragging to the ground, looking at her bulging cheeks and big watery eyes, he believed that she was only ten years old!
The other few are not much better, their arms and legs are not as big as a punch, and I am afraid they can't even hold a sword on the battlefield, so what role can they play
It's just absurd, eh? He was suddenly stunned, and was uncertain again in his heart.
One reason is that the appearance of these girls far exceeds that of ordinary women. One or two didn't feel it yet, but a group of people standing together immediately reminded him of the special group of witches.
Of course, witches are not as scary as they say in legends. If they were really as strong as hell devils, they would have crushed the church and the human kingdom to smithereens long ago. As a well-informed businessman, Dunn knows that as long as he wears the Stone of God's Retaliation, a knight can easily kill several witches without the ability, and they are not much stronger than ordinary people.
But with another person it's hard to tell.
Tang En held his breath and focused all his attention on the other blue-haired woman.
He had seen each other... at the celebration in Evernight City. Although her appearance is not the most outstanding in the crowd, she is the most attractive one. Once you have seen her once, you will never forget this peculiar woman.
Edith Kant, the daughter of the Duke of Eternal Night City, nicknamed the Pearl of the North.
She can be as gorgeous as a flower in communication, or she can cut off the head of her opponent with a long sword in her hand in battle. It is said that her swordsmanship is as outstanding as her facial features, but the most feared thing is her way of doing things. Unexpected, eclectic, and hard to guard against... Anyone who dared to despise her just because she was a woman paid a painful price. Regarding the rumors about pearls in the North, the residents of Evernight City can talk about it for several days and nights in a row.
It seems that Duke Kant has completely fallen to the side of the new king, otherwise he will never let his beloved daughter run into the military camp alone without the protection of guards. And judging from the respectful attitude of the deputy battalion commander, even if Edith left the North, she was worthy of the name of Pearl.
You must know that the army led by the other party can even defeat the church.
With the witch and Edith Kant, plus a group of killing gods, they might really cause great trouble for the army of dawn.
In addition to "reinforcement", there is one thing that aroused the curiosity of Dunn.
I saw a strangely shaped iron bracket placed next to the bonfire. Its outline is symmetrical, and it looks a bit like a pole at first glance. Each of its two ends is connected to a frame, and each frame contains three rows of metal cylinders with large heads and tails.
It was obviously just a metal object, but it made him feel a little uneasy.
After looking at it for a while, Dunn noticed where the unease came from.
That is nine cylinders as long as one person, almost exactly the same shape. From the round head to the tail, it shows a smooth curve!
This detail made his palms sweat. To know that metal is the toughest, to fold it into a fixed shape, it must be repeatedly burned and tempered. But according to the blacksmiths he has come into contact with, if he can beat a piece of iron into a square shape and a smooth surface, he is already a good player in a hundred.
To hammer a five-foot-long piece of iron into an even arc? What a great skill this is
And then make nine of these things in the same way
Any craftsman in Evernight City would laugh at his ignorance.
If they were all superb works of art, so be it.
But the gray-black appearance and the way of stacking like debris show that they are not expensive and lightweight crafts.
Appearing in the barracks, and with the "reinforcement", it is likely to be a special weapon.
However, it should be a solid and durable weapon, but it showed a beauty no less than a work of art. This strong conflict made him feel indescribably shocked.
Dunn swallowed, and found that he might not be able to call himself well-informed anymore.
For this group of people, war may have become something else.
A field he could not have imagined.
