Chapter Eighty-Three: Handmaiden Magic
Meng Han took the bottle of moon well water, and was directly confused by the performance of the little witch. If it weren't for the delicate bottle with a strong elven style still in his hand, Meng Han would have wondered if everything just now was a dream.
Looking at the direction in which the little witch disappeared, looking down at the bottle in his hand again, Meng Han suddenly turned his head and asked the elf brothers not far away: "Are you sure that Her Royal Highness the princess of the elf clan appeared just now?"
Christopher and Christian both nodded seriously, in fact, they were equally confused about the changes in Her Royal Highness. Even before answering Meng Han's question, the two of them glanced at each other tacitly, and they both saw the trace of doubt in their brother's eyes.
Meng Han still didn't dare to confirm it, turned his head to look at his two little maids, and asked the same question again. This time, Demi and Diana were smiling and nodding.
The little witch's attitude was too unbelievable, and even a person like Meng Han couldn't keep up with the rhythm. Although Demi Diana and the elf brothers were already sure that the elf princess had come, Meng Han was still in the clouds, as if he was in a dream. However, in broad daylight, it is impossible for five people to have the same dream at the same time, right?
But in any case, if the dream is true, at least the sin of cutting down trees can be ignored for the time being. The princess of the elven clan should still have such a sense of responsibility when she speaks, right?
On the way back, Meng Han walked on the street inside the city wall of Huangsha Town, and saw many mercenaries returning from the desert, as if they were hiding at the edge of the desert and waiting until the matter of the sand thieves was over. Along the way, these originally lawless guys I saw seemed to be very careful now, and when they saw Meng Han, the mercenaries who knew Meng Han's identity even took off their hats and saluted very respectfully.
This is the change brought about by the victory of the total annihilation of the sand bandits, at the very least, the miraculous construction of the city wall, the total annihilation of the sand pirates, has let these mercenaries know that Huangsha Town is no longer the Huangsha Town of the past, and when talking and doing things here, you have to abide by the rules that were observed in those big cities in the past.
Meng Han liked this feeling, and even deliberately took a turn on the road for a while to see everyone's performance. The twins in Huangsha Town seemed to be prouder than ever, and even when they walked and talked, they seemed to hold their heads high. Even the civilians who have just moved to Huangsha Town are also the same performance, and now, everyone has a common name, the people of Huangsha Town.
I believe that with these mercenaries here, it won't be long before the news of Huangsha Town's annihilation of a team of more than 200 sand thieves will spread all over the sky. Those who want to use the brains of Huangsha Town, before they do it, at least have to weigh it, under the double risk of being cursed by the twins and being counterattacked by the people of Huangsha Town, what they have to do is worth it?
This is the effect that Meng Han wants, at least judging from the performance of which mercenaries, such an effect has been achieved now. Meng Han was satisfied. After going back, he sent the elf brothers back to the escort team, and Meng Han directly took the two little maids to the place where they cultivated.
"Demi, Diana, tell me carefully now, what is going on, why do you know magic?" However, the elven sisters Luisa and Louise could easily feel the magic element, and Meng Han's magic shield was easily seen through by them. The question is, Demi and Diana don't have such talent, so what's going on?
The two girls took turns gesticulating, so that Meng Han slowly understood what was going on. To Meng Han's surprise, Demi and Diana said afterwards that they had written down the magic content explained by the little witch in those two days, and that was indeed written down. Moreover, it was not ordinary rote memorization, but in the process of the little witch's explanation, they thoroughly understood what magic was. Or, more precisely, understanding what fire magic and air magic are.
Perhaps the two women had different magical castes, and they only understood what was related to their magical castes. Demi understood fire magic, and Diana understood air magic.
However, for the two mute little girls, understanding and being able to use magic are two different concepts entirely. Not only for the two little maids, but even now Meng Han thinks so. However, things are so mysterious, and things that make Meng Han puzzled happened like this.
Meng Han's act of standing up and protecting the two little girls behind him when the robbers came had already made Demi and Diana desperate to become the ones next to Meng Han, and vowed to help him do something. Perhaps the heavens heard their prayers and gave Meng Han the opportunity to take them to listen to the little witch guide the magic. They had heard the magic, and they understood it, and finally realized that this was the best chance.
While the lord was working hard to meditate and cultivate, the two girls were also secretly practicing meditation. Or is it really a miracle existence, the two mute maids felt the existence of the magic element during the first meditation, and the meditation was successful and successful.
The two girls didn't tell each other about this matter, let alone Meng Han, they were simple and careful, and even wanted to surprise Meng Han. By chance, I found that the other party also seemed to have mastered the method of meditation, and then we knew each other. But it's still hidden from the lord.
Magic spells seemed to be a big problem, but in the case of the two little maids, it didn't bother them for long. Since you can't recite it aloud, then it's better to recite it silently, anyway, it's just a mantra.
In a place where Meng Han couldn't see, when Meng Han was drilling on the stone mountain and practicing hard for more than a month, the two girls were not idle, and they were not far from Meng Han, silently experimenting with releasing magic.
The hard work paid off, and when Meng Han finally mastered the ground stabbing technique, the two girls also successfully released the most basic magic shield. It's just that the magic shield at the beginning was very weak, and Meng Han himself was also a half-ass, so it was impossible to find it at all.
When Meng Han practiced the ground stabbing technique, the two girls were also constantly practicing the magic shield. They were not as strong as Meng Han's magic, so they meditated many times and practiced as crazy as Meng Han. Finally, when Meng Han faced the bow and arrow of the sand thief leader, the two magic shields firmly blocked the arrows from Meng Han's body.
"You guys really surprised me. When Meng Han watched the two women compare, the smile on his face never broke. After listening to it in the end, Meng Han seemed to be filled with a warm current in his heart. In order to surprise him, the two girls secretly practiced magic like thieves in his mind, and finally it turned into a happy word.
The lord was really happy, and Demi and Diana seemed to be even happier than Meng Han. Two identical pretty faces bloomed with two delicate smiles.
"You don't have to be sneaky in the future, when I practice, you can also practice together. Meng Han touched the head of Diana, who was beating his leg in front of him: "Our little Demi and Diana are also magicians, and they will practice with me in the future." You start by practicing the magic shield and another attack magic. When you learn it, I'll buy you other magic books. We don't go to the magic academy, we learn it ourselves at home!"
The two women smiled and nodded heavily, as if they were vowing to learn magic with the lord.
"What is this?" When Meng Han took a few blueprints of the pulley set and handed them to the brothers Edward and Edwin to build, the dwarven master who was pointing on the side snatched the design directly from the two brothers, and after only a few glances, he seemed to understand the style and threw it to the dwarf brothers. In the blink of an eye, the master turned around and began to pester Meng Han, insisting that Meng Han explain the purpose of those things to him.
These are the pulleys designed by Meng Han to lift heavy objects in order to build the castle, a combination of several sets of fixed pulleys and movable pulleys, using the mount animal power of those sand thieves, it is easy to lift large stones to the old height. It's not a great design, as long as you have studied junior high school physics, you can almost draw something like this.
However, this kind of pulley device, which was ordinary in Meng Han's eyes, turned into a shock again in the eyes of the dwarf master. After listening to Meng Han explain the purpose, the dwarven master even revealed a hint of suspicion. Just a few wheels that are put together can lift several times more than ten times the weight? How is this possible?
As if to verify it with his own hands, this time the dwarf master personally built the pulley set. However, Meng Han still didn't teach him how to use the compass, anyway, he was a master, and if he wanted to solve it, he had his own way. Meng Han only cares whether the measurement is qualified or not, and the process does not care. The master did it himself, and also gave the dwarf brothers the most intuitive teaching, which benefited the two of them a lot.
In less than two days, what Meng Han wanted had been completed. It also included the thin steel wire that Meng Han requested. These were the ones that Meng Han intended to mix into ordinary ropes to strengthen the rope.
The preparations are all ready, the sturdy shelves have been erected, a row of pulleys is fixed at the top, a row of movable pulleys is hung below, and then a simple fixed pulley fixed to the ground changes direction, forming what Meng Han said about the machinery.
"Master, how many things can you usually lift?" Before the test, Meng Han specially asked the dwarven master.
"At least two hundred catties!" said the master proudly. The dwarven forging master is not a scholar who is powerless, and when answering the question, the master still looks at Meng Han demonstratively, as if he is laughing at Meng Han's thin body as a magician.
"So, master, if I can use this to hang a thousand catties of stones, do you believe it?" Meng Han ignored the master's demonstrative eyes, and just asked with a smile. (The unit of measurement will not be named randomly, and it will still be Chinese.) )
