Chapter 61 Outsourcing
Under Vincent's persuasion with emotion and reason, Bishop Bellman finally made up his mind.
Based on Luke's confession under the Great Memory Restoration Technique, the Territory Church believes that there are cultists who are leading demagoguery and rebellion in the countryside, and therefore considers the rebels to be cultists.
If it weren't for the bishop's desire to send Luke and the other cultists alive to the Holy See, and having to use the necromancers of the demon clan to embalm, this kind of decision that obviously offended the people, he would not have done it anyway.
However, compared with exposing the cult organization, eradicating the cult dens, and handing over the great merit after arresting the cult priests, the bishop still has a clear grasp of which is more important.
It is also the wish of the church to let the lord put an end to the rebellion as soon as possible, and at least open a safe road to the north.
So, with Vincent's approval, Luke, who has turned into a zombie, is led by the monsters to swim the streets.
The necromancer casts his spell with a slight twist of the man, piecing together a large number of ugly creatures and Luke, a disgusting mash-up style that perfectly recreates the image of that night.
To be honest, it was a rough job, and Vincent wasn't too satisfied.
If his younger brother who has the protection of the god of nature and is good at making Chimera is here, he will definitely be able to make something decent.
The law popularization campaign was very successful, and the people said that there were a lot of stones, and they did not throw enough, and they would throw them in the future.
The rocks and garbage completely disfigured Luke, who had been repaired with great difficulty, had to have his men undergo repair surgery before handing over Luke, who had long since lost his human form, to the church.
Luke is no longer human, and there are bishops and pastors in the church to testify to this.
Next, the people of Silver Dragon Fort strongly urged the lord to quell the rebellion and restore normal supplies.
Rebels are judges! The Church also provided a sacred reason to counter rebellion, and everyone was expecting the lord's iron fist.
Vincent, who was secretly pushing for public opinion, shrugged his shoulders and said that I am really not modest, so you should be smart.
After some reluctance, Vincent finally reluctantly recited two lines of the poem.
"Life and death in the territory of Gouli are *******."
On the night of the lord's decision to act, the necromancer and the lich set out overnight, roaming the hills around the castle to replenish the skeleton soldiers destroyed by Sadaka and the mercenaries.
In an age where hunger is everywhere outside the city and lawlessness is everywhere, finding the skeletons is not difficult at all.
Even if the human skeleton is incomplete, necromancers and lichs can replace them with the bones of other animals.
After being summoned, the skeleton automatically becomes a slave of the lord, and after replenishing enough magic power to carve a simple battle-type magic pattern, it becomes a soldier with combat ability.
With Necromantic Grandmasters and more magic stones, Vincent would be able to create a stronger army.
Soldiers have them, and they need to have weapons.
Due to the seizure of many swords, Vincent's main lack was armor and armor.
These things are more time-consuming and laborious to manufacture than ordinary weapons.
The Craftsman God set restrictions in the system, but it didn't make Vincent give up using the Protection.
After all, such a good apostle, even the gods were reluctant to give up and open up to him.
For this, Vincent, while grateful, was not polite, and adopted a cunning but effective method to circumvent it.
If you don't let me do it myself, I can always outsource it to someone else, right?
It's a big deal to add new protection, and it's better than making a bunch of debuffs or even being deleted.
In fact, as early as after Luke and his gang completely subdued the law and carried out a "public-private partnership" with demon characteristics in all industries, some of them were happy to mention orders from the lords.
The carpenter and blacksmith workshop, which was already underworked, was busy this time.
If there was a shortage of manpower, the lord would send some older children as apprentices, and there were candidates in the church anyway.
If it is to be used as a craftsman's material, he will not go back to run errands and sing hymns, and obediently stay as an apprentice, and the lord will still have a reward.
Strictly speaking, the lord did not order goods directly, but provided materials and components that were required to be processed according to regulations.
For example, one type of assembled cargo is a shield, which is mainly made of wood processed into a round shape, as well as thin pieces of iron and some small parts such as grips.
Basically, these raw materials should be supplied by the lumberyards and mines upstream, but according to the delivery driver, most of these things are actually transported from the lord's castle.
What's even more puzzling is that a lot of materials such as logs and rough iron are brought in from the lord's castle every day.
What should appear in the castle is the daily necessities that the nobles should enjoy.
Every night, the castle opens its gates and delivers the materials that have been made into planks, sheets and small parts to the workshop.
It was much easier to assemble than to make it from scratch, and the craftsmen and apprentices got to work day and night after receiving orders and a good processing fee.
"Master, a thousand iron-clad wooden shields have been sent to the barracks, and they have also been accepted and have reached the operational standards......"
On the afternoon of the third day, Ninia took a list and reported to Vincent, who was still busy with a pile of ingredients.
If you look closely, you will see that Wald seems to be distracted, her eyes a little wandering, and she keeps drifting on the weapons and armor hanging from a pile of wooden shelves as she speaks.
Although those weapons were only cheap versions, they were not as clean and sophisticated as those in the weapons shop, and they could not be compared to the legendary weapons of the knights, but they still attracted Ninia's attention.
The helmet, which is made up of two parts riveted from the top of the skull and the face armor, looks like an oval pot from a distance, which is a bit lacking in beauty, but it seems to have good protection, and can defend against arrows and general slashes.
For some reason, the leader is called a "three-level head".
The cuirass is a whole piece of iron that cuts corners, but even the most ugly plate armor is also plate armor.
This thing is the inexplicable "Level 3 A".
The skeletons are all armored, and this configuration will definitely dwarf the army of the average noble lord's family, which consists of a small number of armored knights and a large number of unarmored conscripted peasants.
However, what puzzled her was that the lord's protection could be made independently, and more complex toys were not a problem for him, so why couldn't he just make armor and armor, and let the workshop do it for him?
"It's a way to save money." Vincent once casually explained to Ninia, "It can also boost employment and maintain the operating rate of the workshop." ”
This reason is not very tenable, if you really want to save money, it must be the lord himself who uses divine power to rub his hands the fastest and most economical.
Even if she has a special identity and is often close to Vincent, she lacks understanding of the protection of the craftsman god.
Vincent never told her about the protection, and sometimes Ninia saw him alone looking at the material and was depressed, and she could guess that the divine power did not allow him to do whatever he wanted.
At that time, Ninia could see from his lonely back something that made the woman inexplicably sad and inexplicable.
Some people who are lonely in their hearts will pretend to be arrogant and happy.
Maybe the same goes for the demons.
"Where's the armor?" Vincent breathed a sigh of relief, put down a pile of wood chips, and asked the skeletons doing chores to load the truck, before he had time to ask Ninia, "How many are not equipped?" ”
"There is still a gap of about 280 sets." Ninia quickly glanced at the list and replied, "The weapons are roughly ready." ”
"How effective is it to let Sadaka lead his men into battle?" The lord asked, "I wonder if the temporary contract is valid." ”
"Rest assured, Sadaka is not only brave, but also knows how to command." Ninia replied confidently, "Elsa said that the children of their clan will receive military training from an early age, and Sadaka is the son of the patriarch and has fought with him. ”
"It's a pity that after the defeat of their family, almost all the clansmen were killed, including the patriarch himself." Vincent's face was filled with resentment as he said this, "The hometown has been occupied by the Herodians, and the brothers and sisters who have fled have been deceived. ”
"Luke really damn it, he tricked them into finding his father." Ninia also said sympathetically, "As a result, their brother and sister were deceived and became slaves for ten years, and Elsa was bullied and almost fell victim to the curse. ”
Therefore, the cults in the territory must be eradicated, and the soil for the breeding of cults must also be eliminated. If the Primorsky Territory is still a backward agricultural territory that depends on the sky for food, then the cult and the forces behind it will make a comeback. ”
Vincent, who was about to teach the little girl a lesson and make up for her a little political knowledge, inadvertently found that Ninia began to look at the armor in a daze again.
"Hey!" Vincent raised his voice coldly, "My toy, why are you distracted again?" ”
"Ah, I'm sorry, master, I'm really sorry."
Ninia woke up from a dream and apologized repeatedly.
"I ask you, is it your birthday?" A meaningful smile appeared on Vincent's face, "I've already found out. ”
Ninia paused for a moment, her expression was both surprised and a little shy, it was really an indescribable cuteness.
"Yes, my master, I didn't expect you to ......"
"Happy birthday to you! Come to my room tonight, and I'm going to have an unforgettable sixteenth birthday for you. ”
With that, Vincent stopped speaking and turned to the rest of his work.
When he turned around, he actually peeked into it.
The girl was busy saluting and thanking, but her face was already crimson.
"Yes, master."
