Chapter Ninety-Five: The Demon King and the Northern Kingdom
The capital of the northern kingdom of Norsbod, the city of Angusari.
On top of a snowy field, a huge white city floats in the air, and two golden rings of gravity surround the city, like a beautiful work of art, but the exhaust fumes from the city workshop stain the artwork with a hint of haze.
Angosari, Carolan Magician's Workshop.
The Queen of the North, Rhea Katenari, is inspecting the Workshop, testing the new equipment of the Wizard Workshop.
Compared with the relatively conservative southern countries, the northern kingdom has been harassed by monsters for a long time and is rich in minerals, so it attaches great importance to magic technology that can allow civilians to quickly form combat effectiveness.
On the weapon test ground of the Caroline Magic Workshop, the Queen of the North stood majestically on the weapon test ground with a long bow full of mechanical sense, her long black hair fluttering in the wind, and her blue pupils staring coldly at the arrow target in the test field, pulling the bowstring......
The light converged on the bowstring, and an arrow of light appeared on the bowstring.
Shoot!
The radiant arrow shoots out of the hole in the center of the bow and smashes directly into the target! A thumb-thick hole was left.
"The military-type magic bow and arrow of light, using the magic core of a high-level magic beast as the energy core, no matter what attribute the energy of the magic core itself is, it will eventually be converted into light energy, and the arrow of light will be fired, and each blow can penetrate the skin of the bipedal wyvern within a range of fifty meters." A short-haired girl in a technician's uniform stood aside and smiled as she explained the weapon's merits, "But the biggest selling point is its endurance. The magic core of this bow can be replaced anytime and anywhere, and the magic core of any Warcraft can be embedded into this magic guide bow, thus ensuring the endurance of the army to the greatest extent, so that the army can use battle to support the war when fighting with Warcraft, which not only reduces the logistical pressure, but also no longer has to worry about ammunition supply. ”
"Sounds good. What about the price? ”
"A thousand gold coins."
"It's too expensive."
"Your Majesty, with just ten marksmen, armed with such a bow, your troops will be able to keep those wyverns out of Miracle Canyon! I guess this will be very helpful for you to reclaim Floating City. ”
"The Mother Earth Church has sent a new lord to Miracle Canyon, so I don't need to think about recovering Miracle Canyon for the time being." The Queen of the North returned the bow in her hand to the maiden.
"New lord?" The short-haired girl couldn't help frowning, "What are those fat pigs in the south doing?" ”
"Lolo technician, pay attention to the language. Pigs are very brave and useful creatures, and you should not insult them. The Queen of the North frowned slightly, "But I heard that this time it was a dragon slayer brave man who was named the pioneer lord because he killed the red dragon that destroyed the labyrinth." If the information is true, maybe this time it will be better than the previous ones. ”
"Dragon Slayer?" The short-haired girl's eyes lit up, "So, he should have a dragon crystal in his hand?" ”
"Perhaps." The Queen of the North looked at the magic core embedded in the center of the magic bow, "If this bow uses dragon crystals, how many arrows can it fire?" ”
"I haven't actually processed dragon crystal, but I've heard that dragons are born with powerful magical power, and dragon crystal's magic power gathering ability is very powerful, even if it is used to make a magic bow with infinite ammunition, it is too wasteful to use it for this kind of general-purpose magic guide bow."
The Queen of the North lowered her head and thought for a moment, "I'll send someone to negotiate with that Dragon Slayer Brave to see if I can buy the Dragon Crystal in his hand." ”
"Let me go! Queen~" The short-haired girl hurriedly raised her hand and said, "I just want to see what the Dragon Slayer Brave looks like." ”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to grant you this request. Because they weren't going to stop at Angusari, they were going straight to Miracle Canyon. ”
"In such a hurry?" The short-haired girl frowned slightly.
"Don't talk about that. Lolo, what is the progress of the development of the 'Magic Nest Energy Extractor'? Take me to see it. ”
"Okay, please come with me."
……
Angosari is a cold snowfield, but 200 kilometers northwest of Angosare, the weather is like a hot rainforest, and the whole world is verdant.
In the sky above the rainforest, a large steampunk-style airship is slowly advancing.
Airship, restaurant.
This is a military transport airship, and the space inside the airship is very tight, and even the dining room is as compact and simple as a canteen.
Green sat at a window table in the dining room, stuffing food into his mouth. Although the food on the airship is very simple and does not taste very good, as long as Green thinks that these foods are "free", he instantly feels that these are supreme delicious!
"Ah~ the free lunch is great!" Green drank the hot soup in one go, lifted the bowl directly, and said to the flight attendant, "Another bowl!" ”
The flight attendant took the bowl from Green's hand in a daze, and couldn't help but glance at Green's stomach. Is that belly a black hole? Why didn't it bulge at all?
At this moment, an old man in a white priest's robe walked over with a smile: "Your Excellency the Viscount seems to be in a good mood?" ”
"Of course, eating is something that makes people feel good." Green smiled slightly, "Lord Priestess, do you want to come some?" ”
"I don't need to. I'm old, I can't eat that much. The priest pulled away the chair across from Grimm and sat down, "We're about to arrive at Miracle Canyon, isn't your Excellency really considering going to a nearby city to recruit some mercenaries as helpers?" Miracle Canyon is no more numerous than those already developed territories, with monster lairs and no other lord to share the pressure of the tide for you. Although I believe in your strength, I am afraid that if you are alone, the pressure will be very high. ”
"We'll talk about that then. It's a big deal to build the fortress stronger, anyway, as long as people don't die and the seal is not broken, the rest is to drag on time. It's just one night, and it's over after a while. ”
The priest looked at Green's confident expression and frowned slightly. Arrogant imps! It looks like the church's investment is going down the drain.
Even though the Church has a lot of resources for the Endless Labyrinth, the production of Order Tinder is still not high. The thought of losing a flame of order on the imp in front of him made the old priest feel distressed.
Green didn't know what the old priest thought, but even if he did, Green wouldn't care. After all, Green didn't plan to go the regular route.
After Green plans to get to the place, he will go to see if he can use the power of the Demon King to seal the dragon's lair. If it doesn't work, just use the space collapse to blow up that flying dragon's lair! Once there is no threat from the Wyvern, the floating city directly becomes a safe zone, and in this case, the mercenaries or anything naturally don't matter.
