Chapter 187: The Fifth Mission Begins

As soon as he heard Sazastan's voice, Wu Xin immediately bared his teeth, but he still waved his hand to let Father Erlan leave.

If Sazastan sees the two of them together, it is again endless "laboratory" nagging.

Father Erlan was pardoned, and although Sazastan was against him, he had no capital to confront him.

During the period when Wu Xin's army was advancing westward, more than two waves of people had come to the port of Tripoli to rob them, and these pirates could have caused great damage to the economy due to their mobility advantage.

But because of the presence of Sazastan, these pirates did not ask for any favors.

More than thirty pirates were killed and became the material for Sazastan's spells, and the same number of captured became slaves of the nomadic tribes.

Sazastan even captured a brig.

"I heard that you gave the captured pirate ship and half of the pirate corpse to the Kou Tao Fishman? Thank you so much. "Wu Xin first put a high hat on Sazastan, in fact, that ship can't be completely regarded as his trophy, without the help of ordinary soldiers, he can't drive the ship back even if he kills all the people." Your Highness Sazastan's awareness of the overall situation is really touching. ”

However, Sazastan didn't play it at all: "Give me less of this, those fish-headed people have been desperate in the past month, and they have died several young adults, and if they don't give them benefits, people won't be able to stand it, and your mutton nutrients this time, when exchanging crab meat nutrients, you should also reduce the exchange rate a little." ”

One of Bribaudup's favorite sacrifices of the Mother of the Sea is the boat, which her people never need, and the pirate corpse is the good food for the Koutao Fish to raise their children.

"I still have to give them better sacrifices to breed more Kou Tao Fishmen, I have gathered information, there are a few big lizards in the desert. Threaten trade routes and water sources, just give them ............" Wu Xin's words were interrupted by Sazastan.

"If you want me to go to the desert to help you kill lizards, don't build a church of the dark sun!" Sazastan is not easy to fool, most of the time. "Don't build a church of the dark sun!"

"Although there are tens of thousands of inhabitants in your territory, less than 5,000 of them believe in fire, and less than two of them can be considered devout

Thousand. Our faith is not enough, and it will be too late to let the dark sun build churches, and Cassano is running out of time. ”

Wu Xin had prepared a lot of words, but he couldn't say them all because of Cassano's name, he was silent for a while before asking, "Why is there not much time, are you sure?" Lately I've seen if he's been coughing all the time. ”

"He was very ill and could die at any moment, but now he is really better. It is the destiny of heaven, and time is running out. Sazastan's words surprised Wu Xin.

He stood up all of a sudden: "It's completely different from what he said to me, he told me not to worry!" Recently he has been fully supplied with nutrients! ”

Although the production of core-level nutrients required the consumption of many of the most precious fish and many other auxiliary materials, Wu Xin still ensured the supply of Cassano, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to reduce the supply of medium-level nutrients for all his subordinates.

Although Cassano was over sixty years old, Wu Xin originally expected him to have at least ten years to live.

"I've been blessing his body with the power of faith lately, I don't know what's really going on? Battle of Buda. I was able to escape because of my strength, and he didn't have a piece of good meat on his body at that time. Sazastan's words do not concern himself. That's still reliable. "But the population is too small, that bit of power is useless at all, to transform a warrior of his level into a fire element creature, it will take at least a hundred thousand believers, several years of accumulation."

Transforming into a fire elemental creature can increase lifespan by decades and requires very few auxiliary materials. No more than 10,000 talers, Sazastan has long been saved.

But on the other hand, it requires a lot of faith, and the current Flame Church is completely unable to afford it, even if Wu Xin doesn't promote a new priest, it can't do it.

and not to promote pastors. It will be difficult to expand the faith, so it is already a great burden that the part of the faith in Sazastan is not distributed.

However, Wu Xin could not bear the consequences of losing Cassano, Sazastan took care of the family, and Cassano followed him to attack, which was the basic condition for him to be able to do whatever he wanted among the nomads.

His "fireball technique" can scare most enemies, but it still requires Cassano's help to knock down hard stubble.

"Is it possible for him to be promoted to protector on his own? Haven't you already made several Sirte unicorns into a national protection nutrient? The Sirte unicorn dolphin mentioned by Wu Xin is a marine mammal that is a specialty of Sirte, which is quite small and difficult to catch, but like all dolphins, the navigation system of this thing often has problems, and a few days ago, a large family crashed and died on the beach.

"More than a dozen dolphins, a total of only half a year of national protection level nutrients, can indeed delay aging in half a year, but after all, this is different from the longevity treasure, it can make him feel better, and the effect of life extension will not be very great." It is not easy to make a national protector-level nutrient, Sazastan can use almost any animal raw material to play his greatest role, but his ability is still limited, "Even if he has enough materials at his age, it is unlikely that he will be promoted to the protector on his own, if there are extremely powerful vital vital organs, it is possible, but those are at least a hundred thousand talers, can you afford it?" You don't expect his family, Cassano's family is only a small family in Italy, and the total fortune is at most hundreds of thousands of thalers. ”

This kind of strange thing can only be afforded by a high-ranking samurai who is born into a wealthy family, and his family pays for most of it, and the monarch must also subsidize a part of it.

Therefore, the amount of high-end combat power that a country has is affected by the population on the one hand, and the financial resources on the other hand.

For example, after the continuous decline of the Republic of Venice, the population is now only more than 1 million, but it has always been able to ensure the allocation of a "protector" warrior, once the vacancy is filled, it will be filled immediately, and even cause panic among some small and medium-sized forces with "protector" warriors.

"You have to remember what happened to you in Buda after you transformed all the Darksun Churches into temples of the Lord of Flames?" Wu Xin's problem is the core of all problems. Although there is no hard evidence, both Wu Xin and Sazastan knew that the Ottoman Empire alone could not have conquered Buda so quickly.

"This time, Dark Sun should not join forces with the Ottomans against us again." However, things did change after the Battle of Buda.

Wu Xin still shook his head: "It's hard for us to deal with just the Ottomans, and the Roman side is just maliciously neutral." Spain and Austria will be thwarted in their support, and we will need to maintain friendly relations with Rome. ”

Wu Xin was unable to reach an agreement with Sazastan in the end, but he also temporarily dismissed his plan to build a church immediately, and he decided not to pay attention to the Roman side.

After Sazastan jumped back to the roof, Wu Xin got up and went to the playground to find Cassano, he still had to confirm the other party's physical condition in person.

Walking to the edge of the playground, he had already seen Cassano who was calling his subordinates, and Wu Xin's vision was suddenly shrouded in gold.

………………

On the Golden Square, the regrouped members of the reincarnation. There are still some who are dignified, and some who are exhausted.

But this time, Wu Xin is in good shape, although he has a lot of things to worry about in the main plane, but he is at least fully equipped,

As the leader of the faction, he has more spell casting materials than spell slots, about fifteen hundred thalers. All the factions he needs are complete.

Even the fourth-level spell you just got can afford it.

The most important thing is that you don't have to endure food and water rationing.

"A pound of bone-in sausages first! Half a pound of white bread. Half a liter of rum! "As soon as Villefort saw the golden light, he immediately spoke, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time." And fresh Marseille salad ..............."

"These things are not cheap at all, don't waste too much, we still have a life-and-death battle to fight." Delia was much more restrained than him, and only exchanged a glass of water to wash her face. "Redeem an extra bottle to heal minor injuries. Maybe it could save your life. ”

Villefort ate so hard that the bones got stuck in his throat, and it took him a long time to swallow the pieces of meat, and then he took a sip of rum. Then he said to Delia: "You have special supplies from the priest, you eat and drink all day, and you never have to go out of the city to patrol, and I, the hapless wanderer, have been on guard from morning to night, but I have not had wine or white bread for days, you know?" ”

He has a lot of resentment, originally his strength has reached the "backbone" level, and he is expected to become a Hospitaller, but because of the recent severe situation, the credit requirements for improving the knight have greatly increased, and he is still a trainee.

Delia was speechless, she did eat and drink, but she didn't have any water to freshen up.

Faced with the risk of high-intensity warfare, the island of Malta has been in place for a long time with a rationing system.

"Do you know what yesterday's commotion under the walls was for?! Two poor people, fighting for a mouse! "The more Villefort talked, the more angry he became, his life was too sad these days." How can you, the casters of spells on high above, understand our suffering? ”

All this is to ensure the supply and stock of nutrients and spell-casting materials, and although Villefort does not eat well, there is no problem with his mental state.

The supply of nutrients is still stable, and the food and water are just not palatable.

Hayreddin's attack on the island of Malta was only diversionary, and the reaction of Chief Commander Eliadam was certainly correct.

"Looks like you're both doing well on Malta." Wu Xin shrugged his shoulders at Villefort, and then pointed to Joel, who had been silent next to him.

The old fisherman was burying himself in a loaf of bread bigger than his company, and he really couldn't speak, for the bread without sawdust was too delicious.

The water in the Benghazi castle was sufficient, but the food was scarce, and he had eaten half of the bread like sawdust, and his throat ached.

Wu Xin helped him explain: "The situation in Benghazi Port is terrible. ”

Wu Xin said that she wanted to have a hug with Delia, but the female pastor did not give her a hug, but asked Wu Xin: "Why don't you go to rescue your brothers and sisters in Benghazi Port?" ”

Her words made Joel, whose mouth was full of bread, also look up, and it was clear that the careerist Cesare Sibo had a bad reputation not only on the island of Malta, but also in the port of Benghazi.

However, Joel, who had been in the Benghazi fortress for a long time, already knew that Wu Xin was now a prince and did not dare to speak like this.

He was actually looking forward to Wu Xin's rescue more than Delia, and among the residents of Benghazi Port, he was already considered lucky, relying on his relationship with Valletta, he and his daughter hid in the castle.

The Ottomans had taken control of the other hamlets, and they relied on supplies from the sea, so it was not a problem to eat and drink, but the natives who cooperated with the Order were identified one by one and then executed mercilessly.

With Joel's relationship with the Knights, it is obvious that he must be on the list of traitors.

"The situation in the port of Tripoli is actually also dire." Wu Xin said to Delia with a heavy face, "I don't know what the French said, but in fact, I and more than 100 of my soldiers are also in danger of being killed by the enemy at any time!" The enemy has the right to control the sea, relying on ships to maneuver hundreds of elite troops at any time, I can only rely on my legs to maneuver, I dare not leave the port of Tripoli too far, and I have no ability to rescue the port of Benghazi. ”

Although Wu Xin's words were very unfriendly to the Kingdom of France, Villefort decided to remain silent, and he dodged away from Delia's gaze.

Delia stared at him closely, and then continued to question: "Some people say that you organized thousands of cavalry in the port of Tripoli to take advantage of the opportunity of Hayreddin's attack on the Sultanate of Tunisia and the stormy situation of the Hasf family, and looted in southern Tunisia. ”

Wu Xin's face became more and more ugly, it was obvious that some businessmen who were doing some intelligence business by the way brought the situation to Malta Island.

And when Villefort disseminated this information, of course, he also added a little imagination of his own.

But Wu Xin doesn't blame him, this is a matter of course.

Although Deliya had warned him not to lie to her face, Wu Xin would certainly not be fooled, and he continued to insist on his statement: "Where did this shameful rumor come from!" Once the Harsf family is completely finished, it will be as cold for me as if a tooth has lost its lips, I just went through a hard battle some time ago, and eliminated a partial division that Hayreddin arranged between me and the Hasf family, and then I handed over most of the loot to the Hasf family, and I still have to help them collect taxes, the bureaucrats everywhere refuse to pay taxes, and the Hasf family can't send troops, what can I do? Watching the Hasf family perish? I'm going to collect taxes for them! ”

"You think I don't want to rescue the port of Benghazi?! If Benghazi and Gabbes fail, the port of Tripoli will become an island in the stars and moons, do you think I want this situation?! The more Wu Xin spoke, the more involved he became, and gradually he became a little convinced, and the worries he said did exist.

Although he had some plans and arrangements, Wu Xin was the weakest force on the southern shore of the Mediterranean after all, and he tried his best to make arrangements, but it was really uncertain whether he could succeed.

Wu Xin believed it himself, and Deliya also believed it.

"Don't worry, Cesare." She put her arms around Wu Xin and gave him a wholehearted kiss. "As long as you have God in your heart, the infidels will not hurt you in the slightest..............."

Wu Xin was about to cry, what kind of comfort was this.

He definitely had Cirek in his heart, but it was definitely different from the way Delia expected.

But no matter what, Wu Xin still tried to bury his face in Delia's hot and soft body. (To be continued......)
