121. Single-attribute magic crossbow arrows
Leave the castle at the lakeside estate.
Led by the butler, I came to a cobblestone road with Ying Li, Katarina, Helena, and Becky.
On one side of the road is a low bush wall, and on the other side is a lawn covered with dandelions.
The view here is wide, you can see the blue Weiyang Lake connected by the sky and water, and after the morning fog clears, the lake surface is sparkling under the refraction of the morning light.
The Quartermaster Department of the Southwind Regiment was built at the back of the manor, with a separate gate facing the street and a side door in the corner, so that Prince James could go to the quartermaster office at any time.
As soon as I walked into the courtyard of the Logistics Quartermaster Department, I saw two hundred bed crossbows covered with oilcloth placed side by side in the courtyard, these bed crossbows were arranged very neatly, and there were still brand new rut marks on the ground, which looked like they had just arrived at the Logistics Quartermaster Department.
We arrived at Earl Conrad's office, presumably at the behest of Prince James, who was very pleased to sign his name on the list of goods.
Ying Li and I were about to go to the courtyard to count and inspect the magic bed crossbows, but Count Conrad motioned for us to stay, and discussed something with me.
The middle-aged housekeeper saw that this matter was over, so he left alone.
A female adjutant dressed in the uniform of the South Wind Regiment brought a few cups of tea and placed them on the table in front of her.
Her gaze fell on Ying Li's body, although it only drifted inadvertently, but her eyes still showed unconcealed curiosity, after all, Ying Li had an aura like 'the daughter of the supreme commander of the South Wind Legion', and it was impossible for the people of the South Wind Legion to ignore it no matter where she was.
Count Conrad rubbed his hands, groaned slightly, and said to me: "Jijia, the military department has received news from the front line of the Lochi plane, and the single-attribute giant crossbow arrows have shown extremely strong lethality in the battle against the Nakma people, so the front command wants the logistics department to provide another batch of giant crossbow arrows with penetrating attributes to the Lochi plane as soon as possible. ”
Hearing this news, I was secretly happy in my heart, the largest backlog in the underground warehouse in Xinliu Valley was this single-attribute giant crossbow arrow.
Unexpectedly, when I came to the logistics quartermaster department of the South Wind Legion this time, Prince James not only personally came forward to help me solve two hundred bed crossbows, but the quartermaster Earl Conrad actually proposed to me to buy those single-attribute giant crossbow arrows.
I tried my best to hold back a smile and said to Count Conrad, "Of course it's fine, Count Conrad, do you just want a giant crossbow with the 'piercing' attribute? ”
Count Conrad groaned for a moment, and asked me casually, "How many of these giant magic bolts can you come up with?"
I confirmed to him, "Just 'penetrating' the property?"
Count Conrad looked down at the parchment in front of his desk again, and thought for a few seconds before saying: "You can also ask for some 'sharp' magic attributes, and the information fed back from the battlefield has a more significant killing effect of 'penetrating' magic attributes." ”
"Probably 50,000 'piercing' bolts and 50,000 'sharp' bolts!" I said to Earl Conrad after a little calculation.
"That's enough for so many giant crossbows!" said Count Conrad, exhaling softly, and as if the amount I had quoted was just enough for his needs, he sat down in his chair and muttered softly. Then I asked me very solemnly: "What about the price, can you reduce the original purchase price?"
"You have to understand that this is a giant crossbow arrow with a magic pattern circle, and the magicians give it magical powers, which in itself requires a certain cost, and the price of this black iron arrow is not cheap to purchase at the blacksmith shop in Duisburg North Didu, and the price cannot be pressed too low, but if you can buy it in bulk, the piercing arrow can be reduced to twenty silver, and the sharp arrow can be reduced to fifteen silver. "I rubbed my nose and complained bitterly to Earl Conrad, and then I told the price that had been set.
Earl Conrad didn't expect me to push the price so low, and some of the arguments I had thought of were completely useless, but he said to me with deep understanding: "The cost of a giant crossbow arrow is about four silver, are you sure that if you sell these magic crossbow arrows at this price, you can afford to pay those inscriptionists?"
I smiled at Count Conrad and said, "Of course, since I am in the business of magic crossbow arrows, I must make a profit. ”
"That's good!" Count Conrad exhaled a long breath and said, "The cost of dimensional warfare is already high, and the last few battles have been using a lot of expensive magic items, and those people in the front command are just thinking about how to win the war, and they will never think about how many gold coins will be smashed into a battle." ”
Probably because the deal was very successful, Earl Conrad was in a good mood, and he said to me, "Listen to Prince James, you are planning to have a plane war on the plane of Hiero lately?"
I said to Count Conrad, "Yes, I own a town and a territory in Tanton on the Hiero plane. ”
He took out a card from a box on the table, it looked like a business card, but it was not paper, it was made of sterling silver, with a delicate relief pattern on it, it was the badge of the South Wind Legion on one side, and the miniature of the city of Haiyin Silk on the other, he handed this card to me and said to me: "If you have any needs, you can ask people to come to me directly, I have many suppliers of munitions here, and they have very good goods." ”
I took the card, put it in my pocket, and said to Earl Conrad, "I will, Earl Conrad." ”
Leaving the logistics quartermaster's office, Ying Li hurriedly took Helena and Becky to the Royal Academy of Magic in a magic caravan.
For a royal princess, if she is named in a magic class, this negative effect will be infinitely magnified, and it will also affect the reputation of Angelboyd's royal family, which is the last thing Ying Li wants to see, she prefers to be a royal princess who is forgotten in a corner.
More than 20 ten-meter-long caravans of the cargo type were parked side by side outside the gate of the Quartermaster Department, and some soldiers from the logistics department of the South Wind Regiment were loading bed crossbows into trucks, which would be delivered directly to No. 17 Lotus Street in the seventh district.
It was originally a high-class leather workshop, and it is said that the owner of the workshop was a noble lord and consul of a small town in the western province of the empire, this lord had a territory on the Warsaw plane, but recently the Warsaw plane was destroyed by the demon legions, Duke Ryan Bussmann's army was repeatedly defeated, the noble lord's land has fallen, the noble lord has recently gone bankrupt, and has to sell some of the properties in Didu, including a manor in the third block and a leather workshop in the seventh block.
These two properties were bought by Arya two days ago, so I'm going to temporarily store the crossbows in the tanning yard of the leather factory.
The bed crossbows are then transported to the Valley of the Willows, where the dwarf craftsmen dismantle them.
The upper part of the bed crossbow will be transformed into a heavy crossbow.
The lower part of the bed crossbow is a four-wheeled heavy carriage chassis, which can be turned into a four-wheeled carriage with a slight modification, and in the Hierro plane, this four-wheeled carriage modified from the bed crossbow chassis is very widely used, and this four-wheeled carriage is also adapted to the muddy swamp road conditions in the forest area.
The only embarrassment is that there are no horses, and the livestock market in Didu is now almost non-existent, and even animals such as mules and donkeys are not readily available.
During Plane Wars, cattle were a sought-after munition item in addition to magical herbs.
While transporting the bed crossbow to Xinliu Valley, I also took the time to go to the auction house in the fifth block and asked for information about krypton.
It's a pity that the manager of the auction house told me that this rare magic metal has not appeared in the last six months, and the last time an egg-sized piece of krypton metal was auctioned was at last year's winter auction.
But the news came from the old dwarf craftsman of the magic seal workshop in Xinliu Valley that the piece of krypton gold that he got from Dennis last time had been used up, and if he wanted to continue to make magic engraving machines, he had to buy another piece of kryptonite.
The magic caravan sped through the bustling streets of Didu, the leaves of the plane trees were just sprouting, and Caterina pushed the windows open to let the wind blow in outside.
I was thinking about where I should go to get a piece of kryptonite, maybe I could find out about this rare magic metal from the Mining Association, or maybe I could try my luck with the Alchemy Guild.
It's just that I have to return to the Hiero plane, or I'll put Carantso and the orc knights in danger.
Returning to the drying field, Arya learned that I wanted to buy kryptonite, so she smiled and said to me, "For these high-end magic materials, you can try your luck at some magic item private fairs, provided that you have the time, of course." ”
I waved my hand helplessly at her and said to her, "Let's talk about this when I come back from the Hierro plane!"
When all the two hundred bed crossbows were pushed into the underground warehouse of the Willow Valley by a group of female orcs, Caterina waited next to the portal, and under Arya's resentful gaze, I stepped into the portal without looking back.
......
The portal to the Hiero plane was opened on the teleportation altar, and the high-grade magic crystal in the groove of the hammer gem of the Temporal Fragmenter suddenly turned into a piece of powder, as if a handful of dark blue phosphor powder had been sprinkled on the altar, and the powder dissipated into the air little by little.
I took out the last high-grade magic crystal from the bag of magic crystals and put it in the gem groove, only to find that due to the recent frequent opening of the portal to the Hiero plane, all the high-grade magic crystals I had prepared before had actually been used up.
It seems that it is time to hunt down a few more Spider-Man Overseers, and only Spider-Man above the level of Overseer will be able to find high-grade magic crystals in their skulls.
Walking out of the portal, I was a little distracted thinking about the high-grade magic crystal, but I didn't notice that there was only a horizontal branch under my feet, and although this horizontal branch was thick, the bark was a little slippery.
I didn't pay attention and stepped on the air, and my body fell uncontrollably, and the branch on the side scratched my face, and it hurt.
I waved my arms wildly, trying to grab the branch sticking out next to me, which was too thin to bear the weight of my body, and broke in response to my grasp.
I suddenly remembered that before returning to Didu, I was worried that the portal exit would be discovered by the spider-man warriors, so I set the entrance to the portal on the horizontal branch of a large tree, which was more than twenty meters above the ground.
I suddenly fell off the branch, and even Caterina didn't have time to pull me, her body disappeared in an instant, and I knew that the next second she would be next to me.
But at that moment, two huge leaves suddenly bloomed beneath me, and a huge man-eating flower opened its mouth from under me, and swallowed me in one gulp, and the edges of the crimson petals were covered with sharp spikes, and I landed on its corn-colored stamens, which were as soft as velvet, like a soft round bed, and the two spiky petals did not close.
A fierce poisonous vine suddenly came to my side, and Morayar sat sideways on the fierce poisonous vine, looked at me with a smile, and said, "Hey, little lazy worm, hurry up, don't lie in bed!"
She stretched out her hand to pull me, and I jumped from the giant man-eating flower to the poisonous flower vine, and the huge man-eating flower turned into a phantom and slowly disappeared beside the giant tree.
The Poison Vine carried me and Morayael to the ground, and Caterina jumped from the tree.
I looked at the place where the man-eating flower disappeared in amazement, it was clearly the 'potential' that Morayar had just released, and the original phantom of the man-eating flower was actually materialized under Morayal's magic control, which was really a bit incredible.
"Don't stand stupidly in a daze, this is the inheritance of wood magic, even if you ask me, I can't explain some mysterious things!" Morayar stood beside me, and it seemed that she was doing well in the forest.
"We've got to hurry to the next ambush site, or we'll be too late!" I said, pulling out a brand new magic handle from my magic belt bag, to Morayal.
"You came back late, and you can't blame me. Morayar grumbled, and took out the magic handle with me.
I carried Caterina and maneuvered the magic handle through the dense trees, into the sky, and flew towards our planned ambush site.
While in the air, I told Morayar about the battle plan I had made with Zach and Ernestin.
In addition, I have arrived at the Hierro plane and rushed from Pereira City to Tanton City by magic airship to the Knights of the North Wind Legion, I must rush back to Tanton City within a week to join the Earl of Desmond, and I will take the ten Constructed Knights of the North Wind Legion to the Green Valley Forest.
