There was a long queue outside the medical tent, and ten operating tables were put into use at the same time, and the mechanical prosthetics were replaced for hundreds of soldiers of the Northern Legion in a single day. It's just that some of the mechanical prosthetics brought are all used up, and there are some soldiers who don't have matching mechanical prosthetic sizes and models.

When these soldiers were worried that they would not be able to enjoy this benefit, the Marquis of Meteor, the governor of Angry Waves City, sent someone to announce a message.

Soldiers who don't have a suitable mechanical prosthetic can complete the registration and measurement in the medical tent, and the Raging Waves will create a mechanical prosthetic as soon as possible.

The Marquis of Meteorite said: This free mechanical prosthetic replacement will never miss any soldier who has shed blood for the Empire!

The entire Triumphal Fortress was a cheer of praise for the great empire.

Some officers also joined the ranks of replacing mechanical prosthetics, and the mechanical prosthetics brought by Angry Waves City this time were too good.

In the headquarters of the Legion of the Fortress of Triumph, Sinclair, General Joshur, and many other senior commanders of the Legion sat behind an arc-shaped conference table, and in front of them, one soldier after another showed them their new mechanical prosthetic limbs of the Mighty Waves.

Arms, legs, feet, eyes, ears......

Each soldier was very happy with the mechanical prosthetic leg he replaced, which was almost the same as the real limb to use. And these prosthetics try to make the appearance as close to the real body as possible, even if it is still metallic, but it can already give the soldier spiritual comfort.

A young soldier said expectantly, "Your Highness Sinclair, generals...... Miss Sandpaper says that the Alchemist Guild of Angry Waves is working on simulated skins. When the artificial skin is manufactured, and then put it on the outside of the mechanical prosthesis, you can't see that it is fake. ”

Another soldier said, "Miss Sandpaper told me about it, and she also said that if you bury an alchemy sensor under the artificial skin, the mechanical prosthetic can still feel tactile.

It's the same as a real limb. ”

Then several soldiers gossiped about what they had seen and heard in the medical tent, and all of them were under the magic technology of Angry Waves City.

General Jossier told all the soldiers to withdraw.

The Legion's Medic and Mage presented their analysis of the mechanical prosthetics to Sinclair and the generals.

The Chief Magical Advisor of the Northland Legion and the Head of the Mage Regiment, a middle-aged man with a beard, walked to the podium directly across from the curved conference table.

"Your Highness, Generals!" The magic advisor saluted first, and then said: "The mechanical prosthetic brought by Angry Waves City this time is very advanced, and it uses a lot of magic guidance technology and bioelectric alchemy neuron technology, which allows us to intuitively see the technology and new technology development capabilities that Angry Waves City has.

Metallurgical Technology, Mechanical Design Capabilities, Medical ...... These technologies are also very advanced in the whole world.

To put it mildly, the knowledge reserve of our legion mages is already far behind that of Raging Waves. ”

The meeting fell silent as the magical advisor's words fell silent, and Sinclair and the generals looked at the analysis in their hands, and could feel that the medics and mages were trying to use all their knowledge to explain the new technology they saw.

It's full of guesses, probably, and should.

Sinclair rubbed his head, and then said to General Joshur beside him, "It seems that we have all thought things too simply, and the choice seems to be out of our hands all along. ”

General Joshul gritted his teeth, and the few pages in his hand were heavier than the pressure on him from thousands of troops.

The Northern Legion was the first legion in the Empire to receive new technologies, new weapons, and new modes of warfare, and General Joshul witnessed the transition of the Northern Legion from the old army to the new army, and knew how the combat effectiveness of the Northern Legion had changed before and after.

In the past, even if the Northern Legion doubled its strength, it would not dare to fight the Barbarian Legion like it is now.

Now the legion, which I have always been proud of, is definitely in the ranks of the world's first-class armies, and it is so backward!

"Your Highness, maybe things aren't as bad as we thought." General Joshur comforted Sinclair and said to the mage advisor, "If an army is formed with this technique, will the Northern Legion have the ability to confront this legion?" ”

The mage advisor replied, "Your Excellency, what kind of confrontation are you talking about?" If it is a confrontation between the Barbarian Legion and the Northern Legion, our Northern Legion can be fought against this legion. ”

The generals all understood.

In the face of the future enemy, the Northern Legion is passively beaten, and can only use the depth of defense and terrain to defeat and deploy defenses. A limited counterattack is possible, but a large-scale counteroffensive is an act of death.

General Joshur was afraid that Sinclair's will would waver, so he hurriedly said: "There are many factors that determine the outcome of a war, and weapons are only one of them. The soldier's will to fight, the commander's art of war, can compensate for the inferiority in weapons.

We are all willing to give our lives for Her Highness to reclaim the empire from the Queen.

Justice is on our side! ”

The generals stood up together: "We are all willing to give our lives for His Highness to retake the empire from the Empress." Justice is on our side! ”

Sinclair suddenly feels like he is stuck in a fairy tale, and the exiled prince, with the support of his loyal nobles, bravely attacks the queen and her courtiers.

In the end, the prince triumphantly killed the queen, not only ascended the throne as the new king, but also married a beautiful princess, and lived happily ever after.

But reality is not a fairy tale.

"My generals, please be seated! I trust your loyalty, and I don't want to discourage you, but we can't cover our eyes and ignore the overwhelming technological superiority of Raging Waves.

Today we only saw a small mechanical prosthetic, but there is still a lot of things in Fury Waves that we can't see.

We cannot pin our hopes on the Duke of Celtic, whose envoy has disappeared and has not been found. Nor can we pin our hopes on the Cabinet, and when those officials need to abandon us, they will never look back.

The fate of the Northland Legion must be in our own hands.

I decided to meet with the eldest princess, Agatha and Meteor, and listen to their terms before making a decision. ”

If Sinclair had said these things the day before, there would have been generals who jumped out against it.

Now even the most hawkish general has not expressed an opinion, everyone is waiting for General Joschel, who is the soul of this legion.

"I agree with Your Highness to see the eldest princess Agatha and the Marquis of Meteorite." General Joshul finally relented: "But before meeting them, Your Highness should first meet with the special envoy of the cabinet and hear how much support the cabinet can give us." ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the meteorite came, it would be a king bomb, and it would be no good for the Northern Legion to drag it down. Wait a few more days, and maybe the meteor will blow up the entire Triumph Fortress into the sky.

Emperor Sinclair receives a special envoy to the Cabinet.

The news of the decision to meet tomorrow also reached Agatha.

Condolences to the train tea room.

"It's only been two days, and Sinclair can't help it." Although the mouth was sarcastic, Agatha was still happy in her heart. Sinclair's willingness to talk means that there is hope for a peaceful solution to the Northern Legion.

Luke, who was drinking tea with Agatha, said: "At first Sinclair must have wanted to talk, but his generals stopped him. Now that we've demonstrated generational technical prowess, Sinclair has an excuse to finalize the meeting. ”

"It seems that whether or not the problem of the Northern Legion can be resolved peacefully depends ultimately on the attitude of General Joschel. He was loyal to Fanya, and now that Fania was dead, he would only be bent on putting Sinclair on the throne.

But if Sinclair ascends to the throne, the officials and nobles who follow him will surely compete for the court.

Do you have any good ideas? ”

Luke did not promote Sinclair as emperor because of this concern, Sinclair has no foundation in the court, and his ascension to the throne will definitely be vacated by those below. These people have no bottom line in doing things, and they will pounce on Angry Waves City in waves.

The queen can only rely on the city of angry waves to ascend to the throne.

Luke replied, "The privileges of the military aristocracy in the army have been completely removed, and the Northern Legion has been reorganized, with His Highness Sinclair as the commander of the new legion." ”

Agatha smiled and said, "You are trying to cut off the roots of those military nobles, it is very difficult!" ”

"That's why I'm here at the Triumph Fortress."

While Agatha and Luke discuss what to say about their meeting with Sinclair, Sinclair's meeting with Cabinet Envoy Herman ends quickly.

The outcome of the talks did not satisfy Sinclair, and the cabinet did not provide much useful support other than big and empty promises.

Also right......

The command of the Royal Knights and the palace guards was in the hands of the Empress; The Imperial Intelligence Bureau has always been managed by the eldest princess, Agatha; Meteorite is the commander of the Legion of the City Garrison of Saint Lun City, and the Imperial Capital Security Bureau has also fallen into his hands.

The former palace ministers were transferred out of the country, and the cabinet ministers were unable to protect themselves, so how could they give the Northern Legion too much help.

Herman could only promise money, and then talk about the possible death of Augustine the Great.

The officials of Meteor and Angry Waves are described as the Queen's back-legged party, and the righteous ministers await the return of His Royal Highness Sinclair to the Imperial Capital and set the lost Empire right.

If Sinclair had been simpler, he might have been moved by him.

But after this series of great changes, he understood many things.

The next day, the third day after the condolence group arrived at the Triumphant Fortress, the eldest princess Agatha and the Governor of Angry Waves, Marquis Meteor, officially entered the fortress.

At the conference table, people from both sides sat on either side of the long conference table.

Sinclair and Agatha were expressionless, and they couldn't tell that they were aunts and nephews, and they didn't take the initiative to speak.

They are all members of the royal family, and they are not suitable to quarrel in public, and the real protagonists of this meeting are General Joshul and Marquis Meteor.

Karina sat next to Luke, setting up her typewriter for the minutes.

Prince MacDonald and other imperial officials sat in the back row, with a row of briefcases at the prince's feet, and he was responsible for quickly identifying the information and documents needed for the negotiations.

The talks began.

General Jossier didn't speak, just looked at Agatha and Luke with hatred. The death of the eldest prince Fania is directly related to the two of them, if Luke does not bring back the empress, if Agatha does not mobilize the imperial agents to seize the palace, perhaps the result of the coup will be different.

Luke said with a smile: "The interior of the Triumphal Fortress is really too large, and I got lost in it when I visited it for the first time. Thankfully, a man named Quinton showed me the way, and I was able to emerge out of the labyrinth.

I don't know if Mr. Quinton is here, but I want to thank him in person. ”

The disappearance of the Duke of Celtic's envoy is indeed related to the meteorite.

General Jossier replied coldly: "Quinton went to inspect other garrisons of the Legion today, I don't know where the Marquis saw Quinton?" ”

"In a huge cave. When I entered, Quinton was chatting with a group of rock giants, wondering who he was trying to kill? ”

Who is Quinton going to kill?

It must be these two in front of you!

Sinclair couldn't be calm, and he asked, "Where did you see the rock giant?" ”

Luke replied, "It's inside the Triumphal Fortress." ”

"No way," said Jossier, "there is not even a single rock giant hidden in the Triumphal Fortress, let alone a group of them. Meteor, don't spread rumors and disturb the morale of the Northern Legion. ”

"General Joschel." Luke said contemptuously, "If there are rock giants, you can ask Quinton to find out." ”

"Quinton, he ......" Joshuel almost told him about Quinton's disappearance, "Where did you see the rock giant, take us there?" ”

"Forgot! The passages inside the Triumphal Fortress are so complicated that I don't know how to get in or how to get out. Maybe I'll be visiting the fortress and entering the cave full of rock giants. ”

General Jossier didn't know whether to trust the meteor or not.

If the fortress really hides the rock giants of the barbarian camp, it will be very dangerous for the main force of the Northern Legion to be stationed here. However, there is really no better place for a large army to be stationed in the territory occupied by the Northern Legion, and if the army leaves, the entire defense of the occupied area of the Tedegar Hills will become extremely fragile.

For the safety of the army, General Joshul slowed down his attitude and said to Luke, "If what you say is true, be sure to lead us to destroy this group of rock giants." ”

"If you meet Quinton, he'll tell you that the rock giant is very safe now. I put them all into a deep sleep and closed the door to the cave, which no one can open now but me. ”

"You ......"

Seeing that General Josiul was about to get angry, Sinclair stopped him, and then asked Luke, "Is there really a rock giant?" ”

"There really is. But the Rock Giants are very rare rock-like transcendent creatures, and such a large group of Rock Giants is very rare, and since the Rock Giants are harmless now, it is better to let them sleep.

When the Empire brings the Tedgar Hills under direct rule, it's not too late to wake them up. ”

General Joshul said incredulously, "Bring the Tedgar Hills under the direct rule of the Empire? Marquis Meteor, do you know what the Tedgar Hills are? Long before the empire was founded, the Celts ruled the Tedgar Hills.

No one can separate the Celts from the Tedgar Hills. ”

Luke agreed, "Yes, no one can separate the Celtic family from the Tedgar Hills, unless the Duke of Celts wants to separate them. ”

General Jossier asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Luke laughed, "What I mean is pretty obvious. The Tedgar Hills have officially begun the process of being incorporated into the Empire, and all the Duke of Celt can do is speed up or slow down the process. ”

"You're kidding!"

Luke stared at General Jossier, "I've never joked about this kind of thing. Angry Waves City, Imperial Capital, and Western Territory, I said that I would definitely be able to do it.

Now I came to the Tedgar Hills, which soon ceased to be the Tedgar Hills of the Duke of Celtic.

I said it! ”
