If it is said that during the plane war, the lords of all parts of the Grimm Empire suffered varying degrees of losses, but it was precisely the lords of the Western Knight Alliance who made a war windfall because of the frequent outbreak of plane wars in recent years.

Large swathes of land in the western provinces of the Grimm Empire are fertile pastures, where the finest scaly horses are raised.

For so many years, the Green Empire has been famous for its cavalry on the Roland Continent.

Now, as war horses have become a scarce resource, the lords of the western provinces are even higher, and the prices of war horses are also rising.

In the horse market, a good-looking Gubolai war horse costs about twenty gold coins, and if it is a high-quality war horse, it needs to be higher.

In the Grimm Empire, scaly horses are considered a military management resource, and even nobles can't easily buy scaly horses.

The blue-scaled horses in Surdak's Constructed Knights were also captured from the MacDonnell family during the battle on the Gamp Plane, and Surdak also planned to breed them as stallions on the Say-Norman Plateau.

So Surdak didn't bring all the greenscale horses to the Constructed Knights.

When he came to Epson City this time, he originally wanted to buy a black-scaled horse, and if he couldn't buy a black-scaled horse, even a blue-scaled horse could do it.

Eve. Marquis Kim told him that even the scarce black-scaled horses in the market were negotiable as long as he paid a sufficient price, so Surdak's heart suddenly came alive.

"The price......

Surdak thought for a moment, since this group of nobles in the Western Knight Alliance did not lack gold and magic crystals in their hands, then they had to come up with something special.

"Yves. Marquis Kim, do you want to know how our Western Route Army defeated those demons on the Moyunling Heights? ”

Surdak leaned back in his chair and asked casually.

Eve. Marquis Kim opened his eyes, stared at Surdak very seriously, and said, "Of course! ”

"As we all know, if the Imperial Heavy Infantry Legion and the Demon Legion engage in a frontal battle, the Heavy Infantry has almost no advantage in the face of the menacing Demons, and the biggest role of the Heavy Infantry Regiment on the battlefield in the past is to act as cannon fodder." Surdak said unceremoniously.

"At present, our Western Route Army has entered the Moyunling Heights, and it is undeniable that we have a more powerful cannon fodder corps, and in addition, I have a new type of magical alchemy product in my hands - explosive barrels."

Surdak once again launched a sales pitch to Yves. The Marquis of Kim introduced the powder kegs.

I believe that if he paid a little attention to the Moyunling battlefield, he should have heard of these powder kegs.

is not as good as the battle on the banks of the Inn River, which can be regarded as completely beating out the reputation of the monster legion and the mage regiment of the Western Route Army, among which the ghost pattern soldiers and ants in the monster legion cannot be copied, but the mage regiment is not difficult to form.

Hearing Surdak's very detailed introduction to the power of the powder keg, this thing is actually used in conjunction with the mage group, Yves. The Marquis of Kim suddenly realized that this thing could still be used like this.

"This tactic has not been widely used by the lord armies on the battlefield at present, first of all, there are not many lord armies with mage regiments, and secondly, fire phosphorus bombs cannot be manufactured in large quantities, and if you use fire phosphorus bombs, the cost should be very high...... But these powder kegs can now be produced in large quantities. Surdak continued.

"This powder keg is made with alchemy?" Eve. Marquis Kim asked.

"Sort of!"

"This kind of powder keg is not as powerful as a fire phosphorus bomb?" Eve. Marquis Kim asked again.

Surdak said, "Well, it's a little less powerful than a fire phosphorus bomb, but if you put a little more at once on the battlefield, you can have an unexpected effect." In addition, if you want to drop powder kegs into the army of demons, you need to form a mage regiment. ”

See Yves. The Marquis of Kim hesitated, and Surdak said:

"In addition, I can also provide a batch of healing potions, which are very different from healing potions, but they can also effectively speed up wound healing."

As he spoke, Surdak took out a box of druids' brewed plaster from his magical belt bag, a black-brown paste that looked a bit like refined grease. Marquis Kim stretched out his index finger and pulled some out of the box and put it under his nose to sniff it, a pungent herbal scent that made him frown.

"How do I use this?" Eve. Marquis Kim asked.

"It can be applied directly to the wound, but this thing does not have much effect on the serious injury of intestinal penetration, but it can speed up the healing of some skin injuries to avoid infection." Surdak explained.

"Does this thing really speed up wound healing?" Eve. Marquis Kim asked.

Healing medicines are scarce for any legion of the Grimm Empire, and if Surdak takes out this ointment, if it really has a healing effect, it will be effective for Yves. It would be difficult for the Marquis of Kim to refuse.

"You can find a few wounded fighters and give it a try right now." "If you think it works, I'll provide you with these treatments," Surdak said. ”

Eve. Marquis Kim's eyes lit up, he took the box of ointment handed over by Surdak, and said cheerfully:

"Well, your conditions have struck me, when can we make a deal?"

Surdak thought for a moment, then said:

"When I return from visiting relatives in Bena Province, it will be about two months later, I hope that by then I can return to the Moyunling Heights with fifteen hundred black-scaled horses, and I will also prepare a batch of this healing ointment, don't worry about the price of this healing medicine, the production cost of this kind of medicine is very low, and the price of such a box of plasters will definitely not be higher than a magic crystal."

Eve. Marquis Kim looked overjoyed and said, "As soon as I say it, I will also trade these black-scaled horses to you according to the average market price." ”

After some conversation, the two quickly reached a deal of interest.

Eve. The Marquis of Kim also planned to invite Surdak to dinner, but Surdak refused to accept another invitation. An invitation from the Marquis of Kim.

Eve. Marquis Kim originally only planned to establish a military alliance with the Western Route Army and jointly fight against the Demon Army on the Warsaw plane, but he was actually optimistic about the potential of the Western Route Army in the future, and if the battle of Moyunling Heights could end early, he hoped that Surdak's Western Route Army could appear on the battlefield of the Kempato River.

It's just that she didn't expect that this Surdak commander really had something in his hand that could make his heart flutter.

Although he still established a military alliance with Surdak's Western Route Army, he had to think carefully about any additional conditions he wanted to put forward.

Healing potions and black-scaled horses are scarce on the battlefield, and although they cannot be exchanged directly, this complementary trade can still make the two sides of the transaction mutually beneficial.

Of course, the Western Knights Alliance will also have a strong ally as a result, and conversely, for Surdak.

The Western Knights Alliance has an extremely large legion on the Warsaw plane, but the Western Route Army can also be regarded as a great battle on the Warsaw plane, and neither side suffers.

This time Yves. The Marquis of Kim, having made friends and sold a batch of black-scaled horses, seemed to be in a very good mood, and made an exception to invite Surdak to a glass of champagne.

Surdak was also very happy, for the lords of the Empire, the Constructed Knights with Blackscale Horses were the real Constructed Knights, and the other mounts could only be regarded as miscellaneous Constructed Knights.

With this batch of black-scaled horses, Surdak also plans to purchase another batch of demonic pattern constructs and continue to expand the constructing knights.

……

With Yves. After the Marquis of Kim reached a preliminary bargain intention, Surdak stayed at the Maple Leaf Hotel for one night, declined the kind invitation of some noble lords of Epsom City, and successfully passed through the portal in the central square at noon the next day, and returned to the province of Ivorson in the Roland continent.

The Bussman family ruled the province of Ivorson for hundreds of years. Duke Bussmann made a series of wrong decisions, and the Warsaw Plane War consumed the most elite lord army of the Bussmann family, and it is currently the weakest period of the Bussmann family's dominance.

As a result, the city has become much more depressed, and many of the shops on the streets are open, but there are not many customers.

In any case, the economic situation of Eperson City is much better than that of Epson, in fact, it is more like a huge transit point for supplies, and traders from all over the world will transport supplies to Ivorson City, and then they will unite with the local merchants, and then these materials will be transported to Warsaw one after another.

Of course, the process is extremely long, as long as the portal to the Warsaw plane is too busy.

The army enters and exits the portal almost every day, and the military's supplies also take up a large part of the time, and the nobles and civilians waiting to return to the Grimm Empire in Epson City are still about 200,000 so far.

Therefore, even if the portal of Evorsen City is transmitted 24 hours a day, it will take at least three months for the current backlog of materials in Evorsen City to be transported to the Warsaw plane......

Surdak did not stop in the city.

To him, Ewalsen City was a strange and malicious city.

He didn't want to have anything to do with the Bussman family, so after stepping out of the portal, Surdak took a magic caravan directly to the teleportation hall in Ivelsen City......

If he had known that the portal in the Warsaw plane was just across the street from the teleportation hall of the astrologers' union, he might have walked there.

It's really not far away...... He got into the magic caravan, and before he even had a chance to see some of the sights of the city of Ewalson, he hurried out of the carriage.

The teleportation hall of the astrologers' guild was built in the city's most prosperous business district, surrounded by large buildings such as opera houses, gladiatorial arenas, auction halls, etc., and when Surdak stepped out of the carriage, he also saw the city hall of Ewalson.

The avenue was probably the most spacious street in the city, and the magic caravan was parked on the side of the road, and Surdak paid the coachman a silver coin and walked towards the teleportation hall.

The Astrologers' Guild's teleportation hall has only two teleportation circles, and these teleportation circles are only open to nobles, and when Surdak enters the teleportation hall, he finds only a few nobles lining up at the counter.

The teleportation hall was so quiet that everyone kept their voices low even when they were talking.

There are only two teleportation circles in the east and west, and the portal is more like a mirror the size of a door, and compared to the magnificent dimensional portal, the teleportation circle here is too simple.

Surdak paid the teleportation fee for twenty magic crystals at the counter......

The cost is so high that it's almost jaw-dropping.

The cost of teleportation really made Surdak feel a little painful, but he had inquired about the price before he came, so he wasn't too surprised, but he couldn't believe it, the astrologer's union set the teleportation fee so high, so who would usually take this thing......

The high cost of transmission was also the main reason why he did not bring an entourage.

In addition, there is no direct teleportation circle from Ewalsen City to Bena City, and Surdak needs to teleport from Ewalsen City to the Imperial Capital, and then from the Imperial Capital to Bena City.

However, this time in the imperial capital, Surdak also had to make a short stay to buy a trading house with magic pattern construction, which is said to have a very good background and some relationship with the royal family of Angelboy.

With this small teleportation array, the passage inside the spatial rift is very stable, and Surdak walked out of the portal without feeling any discomfort.

In addition, when he walked out of the mirror-like portal, the scene in front of him also frightened him, in a huge teleportation hall, there were actually more than fourteen teleportation circles, and almost every teleportation circle stood in front of a magician in a robe.

When Surdak came out of the teleportation circle, he saw that the magician in front of him was actually smiling, and greeted him cordially:

"Welcome to the Imperial Capital ......"

Although the teleportation hall here is not crowded, there is still a long queue of nobles who come in and out of the portal and plan to take the portal......

It really deserves to be the imperial capital, there are so many rich people here, Surdak thought as he walked.

Instead of immediately returning to Pena City with the next teleportation circle, he walked out of the teleportation hall......

Outside the teleportation hall were countless magnificent buildings, those tall buildings stood on both sides of the street, which were not comparable to Ewalson City or Bena City, and the street outside the teleportation hall was crowded with all kinds of gorgeous magic caravans.

But none of this is what shocked Surdak the most......

Surdak stood at the door of the teleportation hall, looking up at the sky of the imperial capital city, and above the city there was a golden palace.

Surdak was so shocked by the spectacle in front of him that even his heartbeat accelerated......

And he also saw some knights flying on Gripen in the sky, which made him even more envious.
