Chapter 127, the storm surged
A few days passed in a blink of an eye.
By the time the empire returned to the Emperor, Bruce Medici had become the epicenter of the storm, resented by countless imperial lords and landless nobles in the center.
The town of Duqiao.
Combined military camps in the Northland and Snowy Regions.
"Gabry, at noon, the lost land is making trouble in the town again. β
"There are even people who are looking for trouble with the Duchess of Elena. β
"I feel that the dispatch to the grassland will not be too smooth......"
Listening to Chris's worried words, Langton smiled bitterly and shook his head, the emperor's treatment of the landless nobles is very good, and he can use the war to clean up some people, and he can also divert their attention, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.
The landless nobles who responded to the call chose to break the jar.
These things may not have been without Loki's push.
"It's okay, we don't have any soldiers and horses in the north, you should be cautious when the time comes, just don't rush to the front. β
Chris was a little speechless: "Gabry, you're wrong to think so. β
"Maybe you don't believe it. Langton muttered, "I think this war against the steppe barbarians will be very ugly. β
While in the Northlands Rebellion, Chris was able to see his brother's military prowess.
Hearing this, he was stunned: "We have so many transcendentals, shouldn't we......"
Langton: "When a war starts, anything can happen. β
"You have to be thorough. β
"Understood. Chris nodded heavily, and then went on to gossip: "Gabry, I've heard that Earl Woodford is in contact with those landless nobles. β
But the duchess didn't seem to know. β
"I wanted to tell Master Tywin, but I didn't see it today. β
"Shall I speak to the Duchess?"
"Earl Woodford?Bronx Woodford?" Langton frowned, "He contacted the landless nobles?"
With a low mutter, he immediately thought that there were many territories in the Northland that had lost their masters.
"Perhaps, this matter should be told not only to Duchess Isabella, but also to Duchess Elena. β
At the mention of Yelena Romanoff, Chris's eyebrows suddenly danced: "Gabry, the Grand Duke of the Snow Region is five years younger than you, she is about the same age, and she is very beautiful, since you have the opportunity to pursue, why don't you act?"
"......" Langton changed the subject: "What about you?"
"Do you have a crush on anyone?"
Chris: "Uh......"
......
......
In fact, Langton did not leave a clone in Duqiao Town, or only in Duqiao Town, and his main body took Tywin and Immorton and quickly flew back to the central southeast region.
Southeast Avenue that has experienced a decisive battle with the rebels!
More than 100,000 believers and tens of thousands of soldiers died in battle, and the corpses were buried next to the avenue at will.
Now is the time!
With Immorton casting a spell to help, the dirt was lifted apart by a slight shake in the ground.
Mental outpouring of power.
More than 200,000 bodies were left in the pit.
Taking advantage of the cover of night, he took the corpses away from the avenue in batches, and then buried the dirt back again, erasing the traces before dawn, and almost exhausted his mental power, and obtained a mountain of summoning materials.
"I need your blood. β
Langton promised to help Tywin summon his precious son.
Take advantage of this bumper harvest.
And during the period of purging the rout, he made a little study of Goldfinger, and he decided to fulfill his promise.
"How much?"
Hearing this, Tywin drained the water from the water bladder and pulled out his dagger.
"Well..."Langton wasn't sure if Goldfinger could use blood as a guide to make a designated summon: "Let's have a cup first." β
"First of all, lest you be disappointed, I can't summon accurately. β
Tywin slit his palm, "As long as it's not the demon." β
While unleashing the ability to summon and pouring blood out of the water bladder, Langton uses his soul to communicate with the Book of Summoning, and then continues to silently recite the name of Jaime Lannister, and also uses the world's blood to induce summoning.
Hundreds of corpses were eventually consumed.
A familiar battle between red and black bloomed.
A handsome man with tall stature and flowing blond hair appeared in front of the three of them.
Seeing this, Tywin breathed a sigh of relief, handed the prepared cloak to his son, who was full of doubts and confusion, and said, "From now on, your life is no longer your own, but the Lannister!"
Without disturbing the lion father and son, Langton controlled the soul through the pages of the book, and went to the other side to continue summoning.
After a while, the light was gone.
The piles of corpses vanished, replaced by five figures in the clearing.
"Welcome, I'm Gabriel Langton. β
"Your summoners. β
"Can you introduce yourself?"
Hearing Langton's words, he looked at the bald Grim Reaper priest next to him, with blonde hair, a golden beard, and a middle-aged man with a unique charm, stared at the summoner and asked, "The price you pay for summoning me is to enslave my soul?"
Hearing this, Langton smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, I know it's wrong." β
"But you're not simple characters, so you have to add a layer of insurance. β
"As for enslavement, I swear I will never force you to do what you don't want to do!"
"Huh. β
As soon as Langton's words fell, the other two bearded men sneered, the witch covered in frost and long black hair, with strange tattoos on her body, and the ominous witch's face was expressionless.
Shrugging his shoulders helplessly, Lanton sent the cloak away with a little regained mental power.
"Guys, tell us about yourself. β
Putting on the cloak, the fat bearded man hesitated for a moment before saying, "Merlin's protΓ©gΓ©, the head of the evil mages, the king of demon insects, Maxim." β
Another bearded middle-aged man also said, "I am the king of Crete, Hyperion." β
The blonde handsome uncle looked at Maxim: "Gellert Grindelwald." β
Frost Witch: "I am the White Witch, the Frost Queen of Narnia, Janetis. β
Hearing the four of them introduce themselves, the black-haired tattooed woman looked at Maxim and Humperion in surprise and said, "I used to be sometimes a freelance artist Joan Munn, sometimes a succubus, but now I'm one. β
After watching the Suicide Squad, Langton has some impressions of the Succubus.
And the White Witch of Narnia, if I remember correctly, is the villain in the first part of the Chronicles of Narnia that I watched when I was a child.
As for Maxim, it seems to come from Cage's bad movie - the magician's apprentice.
Needless to say, Gellert Grindelwald.
The world of Harry Potter, the first Dark Lord who set off the Wizarding World War,
The remaining king of Crete, Hyperion, Langton is somewhat familiar with this name, as if it is a titan god in Greek mythology, and Crete is also a Greek place name.
Having not sensed the divine power of the Titan, he was supposed to be a king of ancient Greece.
"Hmm... First of all, welcome to this other world. β
"Secondly... I suddenly didn't know what to say. β
"Let me introduce you to you, this is Immorton, priest of Anubis of the Grim Reaper, this is Tywin Lannister, next to his son Jaime Lannister. β
"In addition to these three, I have summoned Ares, the Greek god of war, Loki, the Norse god of cunning, the dark Maia Soren, the dark knight Darth Vader, Voldemort Tom Riddle, the witch Carrie White, the fairy Maleficent, the demon daughter Talia, the poison ivy Ivy Ivy Pepper, the immortal Dorian Gray, Artemisia, Rams Burton, Tithuba, Anne Hal and ......"
"And Leviathan, the god of twists and desires, and the Monk of Purgatory, Nailhead. β
"Is there anyone you know?"
Hearing this, Gellert Grindelwald suddenly exuded a terrifying killing intent: "You said Voldemort, Tom Riddle?"
"I didn't expect to come to another world, and I still have acquaintances. β
Joan Munn looked at Langton thoughtfully, "I've heard a lot of familiar names too. β
Hyperion: "Ares, you say?"
......
......
It's another year of winter solstice.
Because this season is not suitable for expeditions, the army moved from Duqiao Town to the west, and the defense line against the barbarians was arranged, and there was no next move.
At the end of autumn this year, the barbarians did not raid again.
After all, I robbed half of the Northland last year.
They're still digesting what they've got.
Elena Romanov was familiar with the situation.
Because the snow region was robbed for the first time, the barbarians did not take any action every other year, and only after digesting the gains and strengthening themselves did they launch a full-scale robbery.
War is sometimes incomprehensible, and sometimes it is simple!
Taking advantage of the fact that he was with his army, Langton took Tywin and Jaime to the West, and returned to the Northlands with Gellert Grindelwald, Humperion, Maxim, Jantis, Joan Munn, Anne Howl, and Immorton.
After all, after being away for so long.
The development of the Rock Island base is about the future, and he must go back and see.
It's time for everyone to get to know each other.
Fly through the snowy terrain.
After crossing the Northland and returning to Craig Town, where the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce is located, Langton didn't have time to take care of the recent development of the Chamber of Commerce, so he took a break and flew directly to Rock Island.
Even if you can fly, it will take a long time to travel.
After these months of development.
Locke Island is no longer what it was before Lanton left, with fortifications built along the island's seashore, mountains turned into fortresses, hundreds of forts built on them, railroads around the island were laid, and dense factories were built on the island.
A gray dragon rolls out of the chimney of a steel mill.
Before they landed, Sauron and Darth Vader spotted the Ranton in the sky.
"How's it going?"
Landen, who landed, couldn't wait to ask, "Is the factory working properly?"
"Are there any surprises?"
"What about steel production?"
"Is the steam engine alive?"
"Why don't you see the round-the-island train?"
T-X immediately replied: "Everything is running normally at the plant, the problems that have arisen during this time have been perfectly solved, and the production of steel has already reached 8,000 tons." β
"The steam engine of the train is perfected, but the coal is limited and cannot be driven out for patrol. β
Seeing that the railway from the dock to the factory was only a human-powered rail car, Langton also guessed the general situation, without minerals, it was really not easy to produce industry.
Rock Island is still too small.
"What is the state of production of guns and artillery?"
T-X said: "The barrels of muskets have been made 130,000. β
"There were 40,000 finished arquebuses, 30,000 flintlock guns, 800 rifles, and less than 100 refined revolvers. β
"1,000 front-loading smoothbore guns, 10,000 front-loading rifled guns, and 30,000 newly developed rear-loading guns. β
"346,000 rounds of ammunition for rifles and 130,000 rounds for revolvers. β
"Seventy thousand shells. β
"The total stock of gunpowder was one hundred and forty-seven tons, of which forty tons were black powder, thirty tons of smokeless powder, thirty tons of yellow powder, forty tons of cotton powder, and seven tons of nitroglycerin. β
"We are still short of saltpeter. β
The lack of nitrate has not been a day or two, but after listening to the report of the terminator, Langton wanted to look up to the sky and laugh a few times: "You actually made smokeless gunpowder, yellow powder, cotton gunpowder and nitroglycerin?"
Darth Vader, who has scientific knowledge of the interstellar age, nodded: "Fortunately, I am not dishonored." β
Calming down, Langton asked again, "What is the situation with the navy?"
Sauron: "There are already six second-class sail battleships, four first-class battleships, and ten clippers, all armored ships. β
But the number of seafarers was only increased to 2,000. β
"There is still a shortage of manpower. β
Langton's eyes burned: "In addition to population and mineral resources, we should have an industrial base, guns, gunpowder, warships, etc. β
"It's time to continue expanding. β
Sauron looked at Gellert Grindelwald and asked, "Gabry, don't you want to introduce these new members?"
Already thinking about where to attack, how to crush the natives with modern weapons, and then sell the more backward equipment, and use the funds to grow his power, Lan Don slowly came back to his senses, and then introduced them to know each other.
Learn that Gellert Grindelwald is Voldemort's Tom Riddle's hometown, or the first Dark Lord in the wizarding world war.
Knowing that Maxim was Merlin's protΓ©gΓ© and that Jendice and Joan Muon were powerful witches, Sauron gave the four of them a warm welcome and wanted to discuss their magical knowledge together.
And the dignified king of Crete, Hyperion, was somewhat neglected.
However, the atmosphere in which everyone gets along is quite harmonious.
After getting to know each other, Ranton and Sauron, Darth Vader, and the others returned to the island's castle and sat down in the conference hall to begin a new round of meetings.
"By the way, what happened to Blackbeard and Captain Barbossa?"
Sauron: "Blackbeard has established himself on Skull Island, and has taken over the jaw island area of Skull Island, developing a strong force. β
"As for Barbossa, the stronghold of the Rebuilt Trembling Bay now often runs to the sea east of the sea. β
"They haven't been back for two months. β
Maleficent: "Blackbeard has determined the location of Cold Iceland, but it is too cold and the sea is frozen over there, and he can't get there." β
"Tell me that we will find out what is going on in cold Iceland next summer. β
"In addition to going to the East China Sea, Barbossa also opened a black market in Trembling Bay, which helped us make a lot of money. β
"But the big head is still his. β
"It sounds like Barbossa. Lanton shook his head, "But I seem to have said that I want them to unite and occupy the ...... of Skull Island."
"They haven't been in contact with each other?"
Sauron: "As far as we know, no. β
"Okay, put that aside. Langton groaned, "Sauron, Darth Vader, what do you think... Shall we secretly take the plug outside?"
"Outside the plug?"
Hearing this, the two armored men glanced at each other, and no one could see their expressions and eyes.
Gellert Grindelwald, who joined the meeting, asked, "What are the benefits of taking the Cypsal?"
"What can I get out of it?"
Lanton raised an eyebrow, "What does Mr. Grindelwald need?"
Because they have been on the road all this time, although they have heard some things about this world from Langton, Gellert Grindelwald and they are still newcomers.
When they entered the conference hall and sat down, Maleficent presented them with all sorts of transcendent texts.
Flipping through the world's transcendent exercises, the mage's meditation methods.
Jandis and Maxim were immediately fascinated.
But the long-term Gellert Grindelwald saw more, an ambitious goal, an incomparably bright future, and greater benefits!
"Freedom. β
Langton shook his head: "You must know that you, you have all died in the original world, you have been called and given a second life. β
"Isn't it normal to pay a little price?"
"Besides, if I lift my control, you will not be truly free. β
"Because I'm a summoner. β
Sauron said, "No one will like it, but without soul control, we are all tied to the summoner's life. β
"He's hurt, we're going to be hurt, he's dead, we're all going to be buried. β
"Control is to tie us down. β
"I see. Gellert Grindelwald nodded: "Since I can't be free, can I get more compensation?"
Langton: "I'll do what I can to make amends." β
Gellert Grindelwald gave a charming smile: "Good. βγ
"I have an idea. β
...... To be continued......
