Chapter Twenty-Three: A Beautiful Morning (Revised)

Sylvie's brisk answer made Carey flutter slightly, "That's right?"

"Why not? I just don't like fighting, it's not like money. Sylvie's simple answer gave Carey a delusion.

However, he did need Sylvie's help, his abilities could only be copied in bulk if he had obtained samples first, and his own rough hands could not do the work of a blacksmith.

"Okay, then go back with me? I'll let Roy arrange it for you......"

"Very good proposal, I like people who are efficient. Sylvie nodded, got up and patted the dust off her clothes.

......

Back at the tavern, Carey found a man in a guard uniform pacing up and down the hall with an anxious face.

As soon as he saw Kairi, he immediately stepped forward happily: "Your Excellency Kairi, the lord asked me to wait for you here, so that you can go to the castle as soon as you return." ”

Carey frowned slightly: "It's only been a long time since we met, what's Roy's situation?"

Then he thought about it and introduced Roy to Sylvie anyway, and nodded: "Did he say something?"

"It's the head! there's something wrong with the head!" Seeing Carey's puzzled face, he added, "It's Captain Taylor!"

After hearing this, Carey asked Belle to help guard the store, and hurried to the castle with Sylvie.

"What happened?"

When Carey arrives at the room, in addition to Roy and a few guards, Taylor's parents, Mr. and Mrs. John, are also in the room.

His mother, who was already crying, said hello silently when she saw Carey come in.

The room was very spacious, and Carey saw that Mr. Carlisle was carefully treating his wounds.

Taylor was still unconscious, his pale face was covered with sweat, and his usually remarkable fiery red hair was dull at this time.

Patches of blood on the white sheets blurred and dotted it.

Roy beckoned and motioned for Carey to follow him into the study.

"Last night, it seems to be the mercenary ...... before"

Roy summed it up after explaining it completely: "The enemy is more insidious than we thought. ”

Sneak attack at night, suppress firepower, kill your own people, and leave a yin person?

After that, there was no robbery of ore, and no massacre was carried out.

According to Roy's description, it seems that shooting Taylor at the time was more like a retaliatory act, and he ran away after the fight.

To weaken the garrison of Everlight?

"What do you have in mind?" Roy asked, pouring Carey a glass of red wine.

"It's a little strange, a small vein and a big force can't look down on it, and the White Eagle Fort itself has it, so it won't be harassed like this, but there is nothing to gain. ”

"I heard that the vein of White Eagle Fort is almost mined, and it is not ruled out that they are involved. ”

Roy paused: "The biggest headache now is that the long-range weapons in their hands are far more powerful than ours, and I don't know how many firearms exist in their hands. ”

Kaili's eyes lit up suddenly, and he pondered for a while: "This firearm is not difficult, if you can let me see it, I can also make some, but the production of gunpowder needs you to carry it out." ”

Roy thought for a moment and blurted out, "Your abilities?"

"Yes, I have roughly figured it out, and it is not a big problem to produce a few handfuls that are exactly the same. ”

Roy twitched the corners of his mouth: "Then it's hard for you......"

"It's not hard, oh, by the way, I brought someone with me, and I promised the other party food and lodging, a weekly salary of fifty silver coins, and weekends off, the flame ability, but whether or not to participate in the battle depends on her own preference. ”

"Is that the one who helped you? what does she want to do?"

"Be Your Blacksmith......"

......

In the evening, Carey was given the seized firearm, a long-barreled musket with a dark metal body and a familiar and unfamiliar shape.

He didn't know exactly what it was called, after all, he wasn't interested in firearms before, at most he looked up some information and glanced at it a few times when he was making game models.

In this era, it was only a matter of time before firearms appeared, and in memory there were some city-state wars in which gunpowder stones were filled in bamboo tubes.

It's just that this long-barreled musket clearly surpasses a lot.

Carey easily disassembled the musket down to its smallest unit, and only began to make bulk copies until it was impossible to disassemble it.

The source stones around him were quickly consumed, and after copying ten copies, the ten palm-sized source stones he prepared were also completely consumed.

At the same time, I feel that my brain is a little swollen and my body is weak.

"This ability not only costs money, but also hollows out the body, it seems that this is my limit. Carey leaned against the edge of the bed, planning to wait until tomorrow to assemble it, and it would be enough to keep a handful for himself to study.

With these weapons, as long as Roy makes a batch of gunpowder, the guards of Eternal Light City will also be able to use firearms.

Of course, Carey knew that it would take a while to become truly proficient.

After he fell asleep, he returned to that mysterious space, and with the passage of time and the repeated use of his abilities, he felt that the only Rubik's cube that emitted light in this space had also changed slightly.

At this time, in addition to equipment and life, there is an additional column of alchemy in the interface, which records the arrangement of the source text that Carey has learned.

Although the source text is only the most basic 49 characters, it can produce a lot of variations through different combinations and arrangements.

And with the unlocking of the alchemy column, he also understood how to use the free editing column that was initially a little unclear.

It can predict the corresponding effect of the source text after it is arranged, and can study the effect of inscribed on the source text on the item.

Probably to prevent myself from getting out of control because of the random combination of source texts.

Looking at the extra musket in his equipment, he retreated with satisfaction, his spirit was a little tired today, and it was not suitable for him to continue his research.

......

The next morning, Carey woke up to a tinkling bang, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the sky was just showing a touch of white, and the red morning glow heralded that it should have been a beautiful day.

When Carey opened the window, he saw Sylvie swinging a hammer and striking the red-hot iron sword rhythmically.

"Good morning, Miss Sylvie, so early?" Carey rubbed his somewhat confused eyes.

"Hey, Mr. Carey, I didn't expect you to live here?" Sylvie put down the hammer in her hand, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and looked up, a little surprised.

"You...... Start so early – work?"

"Oh, of course, Lord Lords have given me a series of tasks, you know, I've always been pragmatic and take money to do things, right? ”

"So Roy put you next to me?" Carey couldn't help but feel the urge to beat Roy.

Even the birds don't get up so early to feed!

"Well, it seems that the lord is really very gentle, knowing that I don't have any friends in the city. Sylvie nodded thoughtfully: "Originally, I was always worried about the neighborhood, but when I saw that it was you, I was relieved." ”

Peace of mind!

Belle was also woken up by the sound of striking iron, poked her head out, and after glancing at each other with Carey, Carey barely managed to squeeze out a smile: "What a nice morning!"
