The heavy work of pulling the rope naturally did not allow Zhou Lie to do it himself, and the three of them stepped on the lifting cage, and the attendants who had already prepared inside began to serve the three of them.

The cliffs are high and steep, and the lift cage is not reached at the top at once, but is divided into several sections, which is designed to prevent mechanical problems in mid-air.

Of course, this is a path dedicated to the royal family, and even when no one uses it, there will be craftsmen who maintain it regularly, so nothing has happened, after all, if something happens, the heads of those craftsmen may move in the next second.

In mid-air, watching the royal city shrink little by little under his feet, his field of vision became wider and wider, and the mountains in the distance were undulating, like earth dragons as if they were about to break through the ground.

"The view from up there is such a mesmerizing view no matter how many times. Layla sighed, propping herself on the fence.

After changing the lifting cage several times, the three of them finally arrived at the top of this cliff, and at this moment Zhou Lie also really realized why Wang Cheng dared to be completely undefended here, because the other party had no way to invade Wang Cheng from this cliff, even if the other party wanted to carry out the same project on the other side of the cliff as this side, it would take them a lot of time.

On the side near the coast, the cliffs jut out like an eagle's beak, and if you want to watch the sunrise, it must be a great place.

"Have you seen the sunrise here?" Zhou Lie asked.

"Well, I once accompanied the Prime Minister to see it here, and we pitched a tent here that time, and then we had that lounge. Randy said, pointing to the lonely hut on the cliff.

"After watching the sunrise that time, the war began. If you need it, you can stay in that room for one night, although it is not as convenient as below, but there are enough supplies for a day's stay. ”

Zhou Lie looked at Layla and asked for the other party's opinion.

Layla shook her head, it was dusk at the moment, the sun was behind the three of them, the sea was golden by the setting sun, and the straight sea level in the distance seemed to extend in the distance, as if she could see the edge of the world.

"That's good, I'm happy now. ”

"That's for the best. ”

A few days later, Layla and his fellow adventurers said goodbye to the tavern and stayed in the lodgings that Bobolini had prepared for her, and Zhou Lie continued to have fun in the city, although he thought of going out for a drink and chat with Arthur, only to learn from Vivien that they had left and headed for the Philins Mountains.

The week ended in a flash, and when he came to the Academy of Sciences again, directly to Ronald's laboratory, Zhou Lie got the weapon he had always dreamed of.

"As you can see, just put a projectile into this box and insert it from above, and for each shot that is fired, it will automatically drop one from above, and the firing power can be provided by the fire elemental hedron if you don't have enough gunpowder. Ronald handed over a long weapon, which was the fire gun designed by Zhou Lie, but it was obvious that the genius scholar had improved it and reserved the inlays of the fire element crystals on both sides of the handle.

Of course, if there is a fire element crystal, Zhou Lie looked at these two mouths and laughed.

"Don't underestimate me, the crystallization of the four elements, sooner or later I will make them all one by one, and then let those stupid geese in Tionlis know that they are wrong. ”

In the face of Ronald's ambition, Zhou Lie said a few words of encouragement, and then he found that the laboratory seemed to be much empty.

"I remember the last time I came to you, it seemed that there were more things than now, was it my delusion?" Zhou Lie asked.

"A few days ago, he came over to borrow some equipment from me, saying that he was going to crusade against the demonic beasts, and I thought he was going to hunt in the forest, so he gave him the demonic armor. Ronald touched his chin and remembered.

"Huh, where is he going?"

"How do I know, he is the prince, do I have to ask where to go like a nanny, but I borrowed his things before, and basically never returned them, so I asked him to give me five hundred gold coins when he bought the device. ”

It seems that this kind of thing happens often, and Zhou Lie didn't take it to heart.

"I want to borrow a site to try it out, I wonder if there is a suitable place?"

"Just go straight to the backyard, there's no one there now, but it doesn't matter if it's seen, it's gunpowder and projectiles, take it. ”

"No, I'll bring my own. Zhou Lie thanked Ronald for his kindness.

The backyard is where Zhou Lie climbed over the wall at the beginning, no one is using it at the moment, so quiet that he can even hear his steady heartbeat, according to Ronald's instructions, fill the box above with projectiles, and then buckle it above the firecracker.

It was clear that Zhou Lie felt the vibration in the barrel of the gun, and a projectile fell and slid into the chamber.

Using the force of the first gear, the projectile quickly and steadily flew away from the barrel, and the recoil used as power, and the upper part of the barrel of the fire gun moved a little, and then quickly returned to its position, and then the second projectile also fell.

"Bang bang bang. ”

It didn't take long for Zhou Lie to become familiar with the speed of this continuous launch, as long as his hands were stable, he shot out these iron pellets at a speed of almost one shot per second, and the effective killing distance was a hundred meters away, which meant that it was almost impossible for a group of cavalry from a hundred meters away to approach Zhou Lie head-on.

Zhou Lie was very satisfied with the weapon that Ronald made for him.

It didn't take long for Garcia to go towards the Philins Mountains under Charles's farewell, and in addition to the knight king, there was André and a knight order formed with André as the center.

It's just that although this group of people is a knight order, Zhou Lie saw a few familiar figures inside, it was a few adventurers escorting the caravan inside, and at this moment Zhou Lie knew that Garcia was invited by himself and concluded the royal family's recruitment order, thinking of Garcia not long ago taking a set of equipment from Ronald, and suddenly felt that he understood the reason.

As for the news of the star carving, there has been no movement for a long time, although Bobolini asked Zhou Lie to assist them in searching for this magical little thing all over the world, but so far, there has still been no clear order.

However, during this time, Zhou Lie began to run his own business, and by virtue of his identity, he easily obtained the right to purchase goods and sell goods here by many oriental merchants, and through the middle fee, he bought what they wanted for those merchants, and at the same time sold the precious spices and silks they brought.

Of course, the main reason why Zhou Lie did this was because he still had a little homesickness, and it was expensive to buy oriental spices here, so he thought of such a way to cook himself when he was fine.

Finally, half a month later, Zhou Lie received the news from Bobolini that traces of star carvings appeared in Mephisburg, and asked the team organized by Zhou Lie and Bobolini to investigate.

Then Zhou Lie was surprised to find that he didn't expect Layla to appear in the team, in addition, Randy also joined them, and there was a man in armor and an uncle with a sloppy appearance, counting himself, this is simply a strange combination.

The man in the armor was called Fried, a knight, but his title was chilling, the betrayer, who was said to have killed his master from behind, the sloppy uncle was called Alfred, who was said to be a legendary figure in the thieves' guild, and I don't know how he came to be here.

In the end, the person who appeared was Bobolini, the chancellor of the Empire.

"You all know your mission and mission, and our empire has paid too much to find the star, so we have brought you out, and you are more or less connected to the star, and this connection will make it easier for you to find this ethereal thing than anyone else. ”

"But sir, how am I going to bring that thing back, it's something you can't see or touch. Uncle Alfred asked in a lazy tone.

"Use this. Bobolini waved his hand, and the attendant behind him brought five wooden boxes, which were the same wooden boxes that Zhou Lie had seen once containing Frem, on which was printed a sword with wings.

"The specific method of use, this Miss Layla knows, this is an item that can only be used by magicians, and the number is scarce, each of you keeps one, and at the same time you must protect Layla, I look forward to the safe return of all five of you. ”

The uncle had been to the box, flipped left and right, but did not see anything famous, and the knight put away the box in silence, and then remained motionless there.

The prime minister simply explained the matter and told him to act in secret, so he didn't say anything else, and Randy, as the prime minister's confidant, naturally became the head of this team and the watchman, but only Zhou Lie knew that in fact, Randy was mainly staring at himself.

Riding in the carriage, the people headed for their destination.

Everyone briefly introduced themselves, and the other two did not have any questions about why Zhou Lie, an Oriental, appeared here, it was better to say that one didn't care about anything, and the other was talking to himself all the time, but Layla was a little puzzled by Zhou Lie's appearance here.

"That thing in Rhine Town seems to be a star in time, and then the prime minister doesn't know why. Zhou Lie spread his hands.

"Ah, that's not what I said. ”

"I know it wasn't you who said it. Zhou Lie touched Layla's head and said he didn't mind.

"Yo, it's good to be young, uncle, I also want to kiss me and a girl like this. Alfred said sourly.

"In fact, when I was leaving, I noticed that many women looked at my uncle. Zhou Lie replied with a smile.

"Oh, where, where, while we're not far away, let me see who it is. ”

"You see the hostess of that butcher's shop is watching you all the time. ”

Alfred followed Zhou Lie's direction, and immediately covered his eyes and returned to the carriage in pain, "Hey, hey, this lethality, you kid is really bad-hearted." ”

"Hahaha, I think this kind of woman who still has charm is very suitable for uncles. ”

"Phew, uncle still likes that kind of young girl with thin arms and legs, of course, the plump place is naturally the best. ”

"Judging women in this way is disrespectful. Fried, the knight, who had been silent on the sidelines, spoke, then closed his eyes and fell silent.

"I said brother, you can't be so rigid, just like you would have killed that dead fat man flexibly. ”

"Shut up. Fried's eyes glinted as he glared at Alfred.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything. The uncle waved his hand and sat aside.

"I think the knight is right, and you shouldn't dig into other people's past, uncle. Layla said solemnly.

"Oh, Uncle is really faceless. ”

"And then!" Randy in the driver's carriage tossed over the reins, and Alfred caught it, leaving the carriage and continuing to talk to Randy outside.

The wheels creaked and turned, and the group thought about going west.
