Chapter 44. The Horn of War (Part I)

The fishing nets made of thin hemp rope were one after another, densely packed with overlapping meshes, and it would be dazzling just to look at them, but at this time, more than a dozen fishing nets were overlapping towards Billie's body. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This sudden change made the other party stunned, but with these constraints in front of her, it was obvious that she couldn't stop her.

With a wave of his hands forward, with a fluctuation of magic power, a series of ice-condensed blades ruthlessly slashed towards his body.

These ice blades, made of pure magic, were even sharper than real swords, and how could they be stopped by simple fishing nets made of fine hemp rope.

With a "snort" sound, the nets had been cut into broken strings, and then fell weakly on the deck.

However, when the vision in front of her returned to normal and Billie saw the situation again, her face suddenly froze, and the indescribable horror burned in her chest like a prairie fire.

At some point, the blackened barrels of the guns had been pressed against the chests of the sailors, and with the friction of the flint, they bloomed with a blazing light.

And the fierce beasts that were bound in the endless darkness, as the heavy iron door that trapped them slowly opened, the smoke of death had also spread, and the most primitive irritability and gore could no longer be suppressed, and the terrible howl swept like a gust of wind.

"Bang bang ......"

"No-" A hoarse and unwilling roar, mixed with endless grief and helplessness, like the cold roar of countless beasts, at this moment even suppressed the roar of bullets.

Under this unimaginable pressure, the dark golden robe on Billie's body kept swinging, and the mysterious, obscure, and amazing magic in her body no longer had a trace of concealment and convergence, and completely exploded.

The astonishing cold spread in all directions like an invisible wave, and the bone-chilling cold instantly froze everything around it.

In just an instant, with Billie as the center, a radius of nearly ten meters was all covered with a thick layer of frost.

The thick ice wall that appeared out of thin air was like a fortress, protecting Billie behind her, but under the merciless penetration and tearing of the blazing bullets, the originally smooth ice surface was also shattered quickly.

And as a series of bean-like sounds slowly fell silent, no matter how unwilling the other party was, with the rapid passage of vitality, he finally fell weakly.

The strong hedge gives people a stark contrast, that is, these brave and fearless French guys, at this time, are also dumbfounded to look at the amazing scene in front of them.

Although they already knew that this was not the world before, this incomparably shocking power in front of them was the first time they had come into contact with it.

However, under the smoke of gunpowder, the mysterious magic was defeated after all.

"Your Majesty, the new moat has been completed, and the water channeled through the canal has poured into it." Brooks stood respectfully in front of Chopin, the first nobleman to be affirmed by Chopin, and after he was responsible for the reclamation of the first forests, he was assigned to be in charge of the construction of the moat.

The city of Paris may not be large, but it is not easy to build a moat that envelops the whole city.

Digging canals and channeling water into them can be cumbersome and time-consuming.

As a highly educated person who has undergone more than 20 years of Red Flag education, Chopin naturally has a lot of knowledge about the history of the Celestial Empire, and the effect of the moat in the feudal era is also obvious to all.

In fact, not only the Celestial Empire, but also many countries in Europe also have a history of building moats, but few people know about it.

"Good job."

Although it was just a simple compliment, it had already brought a smile to the face of Brooks, who had always been known for not smiling.

"Scherley, what's going on in Paris lately?" Closing the document in his hand, Chopin turned his gaze to Sherlet, who was standing on the side.

The other party was wearing a long black dress made of velvet and silk, decorated with various patterns of appropriate shades, her long golden hair falling down her waist like a waterfall, and her sky-blue eyes flashing like water.

Just a glance, Chopin was attracted by the other party's beautiful figure, but he still suppressed a certain restlessness in his heart and spoke steadily.

"There are currently six lumber yards and three quarries outside Paris, but the first three lumber yards have been demolished because the trees in the vicinity have been cut down, and the vacant fertile land has been planted with wheat, and if nothing else, I believe that the inhabitants of Paris will be able to eat freshly baked bread next month."

"As for the weaving mills in the city, because of the continuous supply of furs from the grassland, several new ones have been opened, which has played a very good role in promoting consumption in the market, but due to the scarcity of iron ore on the island and the difficulty of mining, the operation of the newly opened blacksmith is not very prosperous......

Here Sherlay was still talking, but Chopin was hooked thousands of miles away by the cold prompt sound that suddenly popped up in the system.

"I found the special energy that collapsed, do you want to absorb it?"

"Absorb!" Although it is a little unclear, after experiencing the initial stunned, Chopin also roughly guessed the development of some things.

"Start absorbing, this time the energy is 300 points."

*********

The ruined Drifting Island has now had a lot more life, and a new small assembly site has been built on top of the original ruins.

And the ones who were busy back and forth one by one were the Naga who had fought with Chopin's soldiers before!

"Sansa, isn't Billie back yet?" In a simple stacked house, the voice of the old man slowly sounded.

"High Priest Gael, Billie has found traces of humans before and has gone to track them." Hearing the other party's voice, the Naga woman, known as Sansa, hurriedly responded.

Although the figure in front of her looked decayed, Sansa did not dare to underestimate the other party, as the only remaining sacrifice in the clan, the strength of the other party was naturally quite amazing, otherwise it would be impossible to lead the clan to escape from the siege of the elves.

Although on the surface she is the patriarch of this Naga clan, when it comes to influence within the clan, the other party is obviously superior.
