104. Catapult
Baron Sidney had no idea that Surdak had just been promoted to rank eight warriors.
He thinks that since his right-hand man can fight the evil ghosts on the battlefield, then he will at least be a warrior at the peak of the ninth level, but the level test crystal of the logistics department of the expeditionary force clearly states that Surdak is currently only an eighth level warrior.
Baron Sidney walked out of the logistics department, sorted out his irritable mood a little, rubbed his forehead, stared at Surdak who followed him without saying a word, and asked seriously: "You said that you are only an eighth-level warrior, so what qualifications do you have to fight with evil ghosts on the battlefield?" ”
Surdak took the dwarven chain shield behind his back in his hand and said to Baron Sidney, "I have this ......"
"That's it?" Baron Sidney couldn't understand it, and he took the smashed dwarven chain shield from Surdak's hand and gave Surdak a suspicious look. I thought to myself: Could it be that the dwarven chain shield is now so strong now?
Surdak knew what Baron Sidney was thinking, and he took out a magic scroll from his bosom, which he had bought from the magic grocery store in the forest camp, and now he couldn't explain the sacrifice ceremony to Baron Sidney, so he had to try to tell the battle of the demons as much as possible.
"Can you afford this?"
Sidney asked in surprise as he took a cool breath.
…… Who to look down on!
Surdak followed behind Sidney, not saying yes or no.
Then he could only wave his hand helplessly and said to Surdak: "Originally, the knight assessment was just a formality, but now I want Mondstadt. Count Goss has passed your knight test, and we still need to come up with something more convincing, and you have two competitors in this test, and the information will be delivered to you later. ”
With that, he waved his hand at Surdak and motioned for him to leave on his own.
Baron Sidney walked back to the camp of the captain on his own, and several guards followed him by several guards.
Surdak wondered if he would have to be like them in the future, waiting by Baron Sidney's side at all times......
……
The fighters of the second squad spent almost a week on the front line this time.
After coming down from the front line, after some washing, he slept well in the tent, and then left the camp, took some loot from the battlefield, found the merchants outside the camp, and disposed of the scattered spoils in his own way.
He Boqiang didn't have anything special to deal with, so he walked straight to the front of a shop that dealt with weapons and shields, and chose a stronger dwarven chain shield, this kind of shield made of dwarven fine iron, in terms of strength, was like that, and if he wanted a stronger shield, whether in terms of weight or price, it was much higher than the dwarf chain shield.
Therefore, He Boqiang was ready to continue to use the dwarf chain shield, but his own one was already rotten, so he came to the outside of the camp to buy a new shield.
There were also many caravans gathered outside the Moyunling military camp, but this time Larkin did not venture into Moyunling, and they chose to stay on the side of the forest camp.
I bought a brand new dwarven chain shield, and the old one was casually discounted to the shield merchant, and the surface of this new shield was plated with a thin layer of magical black iron, which looked swarthy, according to the shield merchant, the surface of this shield was plated with a layer of magic black iron, which was improved in terms of hardness, but it was not easy to cut through with a serrated axe in the hands of the demon.
In order to verify the authenticity of the shield merchant's words, the bearded Kagger deliberately took out the demon serrated axe behind his back, which was originally considered Kagle's personal trophy, and he brought it out this time to sell.
Since they heard the shield merchant say this, the soldiers of the second squad wanted to give it a try......
Seeing that the warriors really took out a serrated axe, the shield boss was also frightened, a thin face became miserable, but his face could not show timidity, and his face was even more ugly than crying, but the bearded Cagle was also embarrassed by this shield boss, and just made two strokes with a random serrated axe, and felt that although this dwarf chain shield was not as exaggerated as the shield boss said, it was also a shield with a good texture, so he asked He Boqiang to pay quickly.
After Duck bought a new shield, Augustus and Bearded found a magic leather merchant and sold the Antelope skin in their hands, although there were some broken holes in the leather, but this was only a minor flaw, and it did not affect the total price.
However, when everyone came to sell illicit goods outside the camp this time, one of the biggest feelings was that when these merchants saw that the warriors were about to sell their smuggled goods, they would ask, "Do you have any magic herbs in your hands......
"Have you ever seen a magic herb......?"
"I'm here to buy magical herbs at a high price...... Silver leaf grass, hemostatic grass, kudzu, it doesn't matter if you don't know it, I have herbal specimens here, I can show you, I buy long-term effective ...... here"
I don't know why, those merchants outside the camp, no matter what industry they are engaged in, are very eager to buy magic herbs at the moment, and the soldiers of the second squad have patrolled the dense forests near Moyun Ridge, but they have never seen these mysterious primary magic herbs.
He Boqiang's gaze swept over the tent behind a leather merchant's stall, and the things on the shelves made him slightly stunned, he did not immediately ask the leather merchant, but carefully noted down the appearance of the leather merchant, and then left with the soldiers of the second squad......
……
A group of catapults that had just arrived at the camp were pushed onto the battlefield before the tarpaulins covering them were removed.
The catapults brought to the camp are like small houses, each catapult has a throwing arm that is ten meters long, stacked on a frame like an arm, and the catapult is about a meter in diameter in the shape of a spoon, on which it can be filled with loose stones, which can be splashed more widely, and of course can also be filled with stone balls weighing up to 1,000 pounds, which can be smashed on the demons, and can also pierce them into a pulp and fall on the city wall, which can make the city wall crack a large piece.
Each catapult needs to be pulled by four mules, the four giant wooden wheels look quite bulky, each catapult has a tall gantry, the standard catapult of the Green Empire is the kind with a strong torsion spring, each catapult is covered with magic arrays, it is said that the cost of this kind of big guy is not cheap, and each catapult is more expensive than the construction of knights.
Grand Duke Newman can be said to have invested a lot of money for this battle of Moyunling.
The soldiers of the second squad stood at the gate of the camp to make way for the catapults that were slowly moving out of the camp, and at the front of each catapult was a groom leading the mule at the front, with their cloaks and a windy face. Dusty, with tiredness in his eyes, he was sent to the battlefield without taking a break in the Moyunling camp.
Augustus looked at the tall frame of the catapult, with inexplicable shock in his eyes, and whispered beside He Boqiang:
"Since the Duke has taken out a catapult to attack Moyunling, it seems that this battle is bound to win!"
