Chapter 609: First Brush

After the wound was urgently bandaged, it was put back on the life-saving but already defective elven chain mail, robes and other clothing. If the problem of chain mail repair is solved, just go to your old friend; As for the question that needs to be explained to the above, Babak Abunahan said after thinking about it: "I remember that the report of the commander of the 10th Legion at the beginning was to evaluate the other party as a purple-level target. ”

A regimental commander who gave the assessment of 'unrivalile' became a laughing stock among the upper echelons of the empire at the time. Attila watched her friend mention this incident, first stunned, and then had to agree after thinking about it. "Indeed, with what is now known about him, it is indeed not a good idea to choose hostility. It's just that you are a man with the title of Dharma Saint, rashly giving others such an evaluation, have you ever thought about what others will think of you? ”

"Which do you think is cheaper, taking your life to become someone else's stepping stone, or taking your face to become someone else's stepping stone?"

With a long sigh, Attila said, "I really didn't expect that to this day, we still need to think about this kind of problem. ”

"There is no shame in admitting failure, but the shame is that you don't even know how you failed. Besides, what we see is all the strength of that magician? Where did the force that oppressed you so much that you couldn't move come from, did you perceive it? ”

When Babak Abunahan was stabbed in the chest with a sword, not only did no one of his friends or his students come to save him, but even he did not react in any way, not only because his life was in the hands of others, but also because of the hidden threat that came out of nowhere. That's what keeps them from moving. Since we can't even find the source, how can we talk about confrontation.

The two of them, who had traveled all over the world, knew very well that they should never underestimate anyone who hid secrets, especially since this person was still a magician. It is not surprising when the boat capsizes in the gutter, and they have encountered crises with such people more than once.

But there has never been a time like this time, after paying the price, I still have no clue about the strength of the opponent. What is especially disgusting is that such a person actually meets two in one go, and these two are still related!

Yesterday at the banquet, I met the rumored demon king for the first time. Regardless of whether the other party was the one from a thousand years ago, Babak Abunahan and Attila agreed that they would never trouble the other person.

Their eyes had been baptized by the spirits and could see a certain metaphysical reality. And that one didn't look like the lich they'd ever seen in their eyes, and if it was the embodiment of some kind of power, they would still believe it. An almost divine existence like this is beyond their comprehension, let alone confrontation with it.

At this time, the people sitting in the exit carriage thought of a recent rumor. In the holy city of Estari, some people covet the beauty of the demon king, and some people covet her wisdom, so they want to monopolize the demon king. The biggest obstacle is, of course, the man next to the demon king.

There are radical ones, of course, who directly use assassination methods, but there are no results, and even the killers who were sent out are nowhere to be found. Everyone speculated that it might be more than lucky, but they didn't know why the group of people who were the target never mentioned this incident.

So the second method that these people think of is to use male seduction. If one doesn't work, there will be two, and if two can't, there will be ten. Anyway, when dealing with a woman, there is always a way to pry open the other party's defense, so as to capture the other party's heart. And as long as a woman is captured, it is not a matter of taking and taking.

In response to such rumors, the position of Sage Babak Abunahan is optimistic. It's too dangerous for those two to get together. If we can separate, it will be good for the whole world.

However, can it go well? I won't step on any taboos. It is impossible to be too careful against this kind of enemy. It is especially important that you should not make a move until you are sure. Constant temptation not only wears down the other party's patience, but also improves the other party's vigilance. However, those who can't see the truth clearly will have to pay the price for their indiscretion sooner or later.

Thinking about this, Babak Abunahan began to seriously think about whether it was time to withdraw from the Gwana Empire. There is nothing wrong with the power of the empire being very strong, and there is nothing wrong with ordinary people being difficult to resist, even if it is as powerful as him, as far as he can observe, the empire has at least ten or more people. And that's not counting the trump card that has been hidden and unknown.

However, just because of the other party's elusive ability, all those who oppose him will not be able to sleep well as long as they don't see his head for a day. There is even a question that no one has ever raised. That is, when he was in the city of Abadan, how did the man find out exactly where all the nobles were staying? How did he investigate? How do you locate so many people?

The more he thought about it, the more weak Babak Abunahan became. The information that used to be seen as a joke is now very likely to be true. If that's true, what kind of monster are you facing!

Someone has no way of knowing what was going on in the mind of the man in the carriage who was gone. In fact, even the people in the same room couldn't find out exactly what they were thinking. At most, from the heartbeat, expression, night sweats, etc., you can know the level of nervousness of the other party. Unless the box is cut into them, a sword with a big mouth will be preached all over the world.

But Lin doesn't like this kind of behavior of probing into other people's privacy. It doesn't matter what moral purity is, I just think that people should keep some of their own space and not allow others to infringe on it. I don't like to be violated, and I certainly don't want to violate others. Love Chinese Network

Because of this, it seems that it is easy to step on the thunder...... It's like discovering someone's strange sexual fetishes, or some hobby that can't see the light. This is still found face-to-face, how embarrassing it must be. People in my hometown love to read gossip and talk about gossip because they read tabloids, or they talk behind people's backs. If you expose the scars in front of you, you are lucky not to be killed.

So, ignorance is bliss.

The most important thing at hand is to get the mathematics journal out there. The printing press, on the other hand, accounted for a considerable proportion of its own plans. After assembling the machine, it seems that the test run is normal. But to make sure that everything is okay, you still have to officially go live before you can make a conclusion.

First, instruct the human hand to put the large stack of white paper into the feeding slot, and then pour the ink into the feeding slot. The transfer printing method was too complicated, and the most important thing was that no suitable rubber material could be found, so this printing machine still used letterpress direct printing, but the action of the multi-segment cylinder and the cooperation of the second feeding groove realized double-sided printing.

When everything is ready, start the machine. First of all, try it out and print a five-volume volume.

In the running of the printing press, the fully open white paper is fed one by one and rolled between the cylinders. The letterpress of Manroland metal is transformed by shaping, and the contents of the plate are printed onto the rolled paper by moving forward and backward under the main cylinder.

Single-sided printed paper is fed into the second feeding slot for temporary storage. When all the single sides of the predetermined amount of printing are completed, the machine will transfer to the paper fed on one side by the second feeding slot, and then print the blank side. Similarly, when the paper passes through the main drum and the blank side is printed, it is fed into the output slot.

In order to match the mathematical formulas, sometimes it is necessary to have a relatively long layout, and it is not possible to wrap lines arbitrarily, so this journal is designed to be the size of a sixteen-folio. That is, each page is roughly equivalent to the A4 of the earth.

A fully open sheet of paper, plus the front and back, can print thirty-two pages. The size of two sheets of fully open paper is the number of pages in the first issue of the journal of mathematics. So the five volumes were only ten sheets of fully open white paper. The whole printing process is very smooth, and it can be said that it is completed in a blink of an eye. The jam that Lin feared the most did not happen.

As for the paper cutting part, although a large paper cutting machine has been made, it has not yet realized the connection and automation with the printing machine, and can only be operated manually, but the cardboard for cutting paper is still prepared. Because it only requires the action of alignment, cutting, cutting and then cutting, there is no deliberate reference line or bleeding line.

The paper is cut, followed by the check, of course, folded in half, and then the saddle pegs are nailed to the back of the book. At this point, a mathematical journal is completed.

Someone looked at the hot, freshly baked new book with satisfaction. I also leaned forward and smelled the long-lost book. The smell was familiar, Lin thought for a moment, turned to Uzov and asked, "Camphor in the ink?" ”

The first guild leader of the Technology Guild, who was dumbfounded, was stunned for a moment before replying, "Ah, yes. Because Old Tom was originally an aristocratic bookmaker, he said that adding a little camphor to the ink can have the effect of repelling insects, so that the books are in a better state of preservation, and the smell will not be the stench of simple ink. Just do this, and you can't use it on the ink used to write magical words. But I thought that what Mr. wanted to print had nothing to do with magic in the first place, so I discussed it with him and slightly modified the ink recipe of Mr. Sir. Is that okay? ”

As Uzov spoke, he pointed to an old craftsman in the crowd who looked a little frightened.

Seeing that people were at the scene, Lin said with satisfaction: "Of course you can." I didn't take that into account, and I would have given him another bonus on top of the original reward for Tom, as a reward for helping me notice what I had overlooked. But the next time, if there is such an improvement in what I want, you have to notify me first. Otherwise, if it is arbitrarily changed, if it conflicts with the original intention of my design, it will cause trouble. ”

"Yes, sir." Uzov said respectfully. Old Tom also looked a little embarrassed in the congratulations of the others.

At this time, the head of the academy, who had just finished sending off the Fa Sage Babak Abunahan and his party, the Grand Magician Kabanbai, had just walked in the door and noticed the subtle atmosphere in the room at a glance.

The group of ordinary people who came to assemble the printing machine were very happy, but they were in the territory of the magician, otherwise they would have shouted loudly. On the other hand, his old friend Bijan, and a vote of magicians and apprentices, were stunned, and they didn't even notice that they entered the door.

Just as he was about to ask about the situation, Kabanbai saw that Lin was holding a book-like thing in his hand, thin. He immediately came to his senses and asked in shock: "I'm just going to send a guest, have you already printed a periodical?" ”
