Since the time crossing, the curse of the Aragami that destroyed the magic card master is a lingering nightmare that haunts Luo Zhengdao's heart, and the cause and mechanism of the curse have been analyzed more than once. For example, he originally conceived the method of finding a stand-in, an object with his aura and characteristics, such as a statue. Although Luo Zhengdao felt that there was little hope for this method, he had to make a difference even if it was just to give an explanation to himself and the people who cared about him.

It is impossible for an ordinary statue to meet the necessary conditions for transferring the curse, and from the perspective of a bystander, Luo Zhengdao's mysterious practices in the past few days are full of the smell of witchcraft from head to toe.

In the first step, Luo Zhengdao first placed his cut hair, nails, and blood-soaked puppets in a small box, and took advantage of the darkness of the night to send someone to place the container in the dark of the stone statue of the regent erected on the square of the Funayama Islands. Two days after the plan was implemented, the hapless statue shattered into stone chips for unknown reasons, a phenomenon that seemed to indicate that his method of transferring the curse was not completely ineffective, but was far from effective enough to end the major problems he was facing.

Since this method is more or less effective, no matter how effective it is, it is always good news, and Luo Zhengdao immediately found two mage advisors to ask for advice on how to further strengthen the statue.

The structure and golem of the New World Guardian Mage Tower are statue-like beings, and the arcanists have been researching these guard materials for more than a day or two, and they can be called specialising in the art industry. The two mage advisors didn't know what Luo Zhengdao wanted, the regent refused to say, and they didn't dare to ask why, but the technical requirements were clear, and the two of them contributed a bottle of alchemical concoction specially used to strengthen the material of the construct, and at the same time, Luo Zhengdao used tin-containing bronze to cast the statue, because this material has the best magic stability among cheap metals.

After receiving technical support, Luo Zhengdao immediately ordered the start of construction, and it took a full month and a half from the design sketch to the completion of the ribbon cutting, during which a total of 8,000 pounds of pure copper and 1,000 pounds of tin ingots were consumed.

On the day the statue was completed, I don't know if it really played a role, or if it was purely a psychological effect of the nature of the placebo in medicine, Luo Zhengdao felt that the depression in his body was slightly reduced, and he sighed helplessly, now everything he can do has been done, and the rest of the things can only be held. Later, Luo Zhengdao remembered the Pantheon located in Wake Reef, so he gathered the original team and copied a statue with a slightly smaller proportion and placed it in the Pantheon.

“…… Science is the discipline of observing, summarizing and analyzing things in the objective world, so as to obtain regular generalized conclusions, and if some people claim to be able to draw conclusions at a glance without careful observation and objective analysis of unknown things, then this idea itself is contrary to science. ”

In order to expound his concept of science, Luo Zhengdao specially wrote an inscription and ordered someone to carve it on the bronze statue. After carefully examining his evil works, he sent a life-size bronze statue of a fanatic believer in Scientology to the Pantheon, Luo Zhengdao couldn't guess what future researchers would feel when they suddenly found this passage on his statue, anyway, he had done his part, and he could finally enjoy a rare quiet time. However, the sound of hurried footsteps from outside the door once again broke his idea of trying to be lazy, and with a sigh, Luo Zhengdao had to stand up straight, waiting for someone to bring him the latest news, which was either happy or disturbing.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! The goblins have made a big move. ”

The attendant's panicked actions caused Luo Zhengdao's dissatisfaction, and he frowned and said:

"Don't rush, speak slowly."

"Yes, Your Highness. The goblins have recruited a group of new army daredevils and trained them to fly fire attack ships, and it is said that training is now underway. ”

As soon as he heard this, he only felt angry and funny, Luo Zhengdao smiled and said:

"Are those greenskins crazy? Why did the puppet army give them their lives? ”

"Your Highness, this time the situation is different, the goblins have organized a team of warlords, and formulated the rules of heavy rewards and punishments, as long as they can successfully drive the fire attack ship into our port, the reward will be 1,000 gold coins, and they will be executed directly if they escape from the battle."

After listening to the report, Luo Zhengdao suddenly had a subtle sense of disobedience in his heart, and the goblin didn't seem to be coming at him, so he said slowly:

"Oh, that means...... No matter how those puppet armies are chosen, the goblins have to make money! ”

The attendant nodded again and again, and echoed:

"Well, the goblins don't spend much money to storm our harbor with fire attack ships, how many of those puppet soldiers can go back alive to receive the bounty? If they dare to run away, they will be killed, and no one can say that there is a problem, and the Greenskin's calculations are too vicious. ”

Accustomed to observing the subtle changes in the outside world from the perspective of the dark side, Luo Zhengdao didn't think that those people who treacherously rebelled against the puppet army could have much loyalty to help the goblins, most of them followed their masters to the alien race, to say that these puppet soldiers and goblins are sworn friends with one heart, it would be too naïve and ridiculous. Whether it is intensive training, heavy rewards and heavy punishments, these methods are likely to be a cover for people's ears. In his bones, the goblins should have begun to doubt the value of these puppet armies, and they were already ready to unload the mill and kill the donkey, and it was inconvenient to do it themselves with the help of the hands of human resistors.

Thinking along this line of thought, Luo Zhengdao quickly clarified his mind and said:

"Let me think about it...... It is impossible for the Greenskins to only send puppet troops to attack, they themselves have to supervise the battle, otherwise how can they execute the deserters in time? ”

"Yes, Your Highness, are you saying that we are going to fight the goblins beyond the puppet army?"

This kind of conversation involving strategic intent, even if the attendants are all selected from subordinates who can be trusted for many years, purely from the perspective of organizational health, Luo Zhengdao will not agree to turn the people around the supreme leader into some kind of wind direction balloon, and immediately smiled and diverted the topic and said:

"Tell the heads of the departments to immediately convene an emergency meeting, and it's better for everyone to discuss than for the two of us to make small talk, right?"

You can be selected to enter the chamber of the attendant, and if you are released out, you can become an elite incubator for a large official position, and there will be no brainless fool to get such an opportunity, this attendant officer woke up from the illusion that he could also participate in decision-making, and he said profusely sweating:

"Yes, Your Highness, I will go and gather them."

Half an hour later, everyone in the conference room arrived and introduced the information, Luo Zhengdao glanced at the high-level people present and said:

“…… Okay guys, that's the general situation, the goblins are in a hurry, do you have any way to deal with these mad dogs? ”

Fort Chopin was a well-known aeronautist, because the cost difference between losing a pirate fighter and sinking a warship was so great that the old retainers habitually thought that saving money was good. At this moment, he stood up and said:

"Your Highness, you have to rely on the air force to eliminate the goblin warlords, without the warlords, those puppet armies are no more difficult to control than a pack of wild dogs."

Hearing this, he smiled noncommittally, and Luo Zhengdao continued:

"This is a solution, does anyone have any other ideas?"

Zola Hegel moved his body at this time, and Luo Zhengdao immediately turned his gaze to him, and the boatswain, who had not intended to speak immediately, could only speak curtly:

"Your Highness, you said that you would concentrate on training a group of excellent hunters and forming a special unit called snipers, can it also play a role?"

Others don't mention this stubble, it is estimated that Luo Zhengdao, who is busy with your people, has forgotten this idea, when he was extremely brave enough to kill the incarnation of Ban N with one shot, the high-precision rifle that fires blue and gold bullets is an out-and-out top luxury. There is no way, in the workshop mode, to produce parts with sufficient precision, you can only rely on a small number of experienced craftsmen to repeatedly run in the test, especially the processing of the barrel part is too difficult, and the yield of many parts is intolerably low. Recently, with the improvement of the technical level of the metallurgical industry in Wake Reef, a large number of orders for the processing of muskets have also brushed up the proficiency of craftsmen, and the price of this high-precision custom-made firearm has begun to show signs of decline, and only 500 gold coins can be purchased for one.

Although this three-digit cost price is still ridiculously expensive for non-enchanted individual equipment, it is still within the acceptable range, and a small amount of equipment of more than ten or twenty sticks will not allow Luo Zhengdao to pawn his underwear.

Suddenly, hearing the boatswain mention this matter again, he suddenly remembered the idea that he had gradually forgotten, Luo Zhengdao smiled and nodded in agreement, and said:

"Snipers? Well, this building can be considered, if you have any opinions, please don't be polite! ”

At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door of the conference room, followed by a chamberlain who leaned in halfway and said:

"Your Highness, a messenger has arrived."

"Whose messenger? Yaling? Genie? Or Gaode? ”

The squire's expression was extremely strange, and his lips twitched for a moment before he replied:

“…… It's Najaf. ”

As soon as he heard this, Faure Chopin was furious, he stood up with the hilt of his sword in his hand, his eyes were as wide as light bulbs, and he shouted:

"Najaf that bastard? Where is he? I'm going to kill him. ”

After a moment of stunned silence, Luo Zhengdao snapped his fingers and said quietly:

"Call the messenger in, I'd like to hear what that guy has to say to me."

The messenger sent by the sinister and cunning black-robed sorcerer Najaf Nedham was not an eloquent orator, with bronzed skin and a medium stature and little variation in facial movements, but the messenger was so honest that he felt more like a country farmer, and listened to him speak dryly about Najaf's intentions without any change in his tone, and many of them were close to falling asleep.

"We can't cooperate with him, Your Highness."

Luo Zhengdao gestured to prevent his subordinates from talking, after all, it was inconvenient to discuss many words in front of the other party's messenger, and then he motioned for the attendant to take the messenger away. Soon, only the original participants were left in the room, and in this environment, the crowd became more and more noisy.
