The next morning, the sun was not bad, and some of the chill was dispelled.

Hans arrived at the castle early and knocked on the door of Ryan's office.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Knight Hans on this sunny morning, I heard that you managed to hunt a monster yesterday?"

Ryan smiled as he wrote and drew on the paper and beckoned Hans to sit down.

"Lord Baron, this is the core of that demonic beast, and I am now dedicated to you." Hans took out a delicate wooden box and respectfully placed it in front of Ryan.

As the commander of yesterday's encirclement and suppression operation, this is actually his trophy, and he does not need to hand it over to Ryan, this is a rule that the nobles of the whole kingdom default to.

So now he takes out what he deserves, and what it represents is obvious - overtures and compromises.

To put it bluntly, it is to show loyalty, which means that I will definitely follow you Master Ryan, and be loyal.

As a knight canonized by a former lord and owning a manor, it is necessary for him to show loyalty if he does not want to be slowly marginalized.

"Then thank you to Knight Hans for cutting love." Ryan naturally knew that although the beast core was not a very valuable thing, it showed a matter of attitude.

"Let's talk about the situation of yesterday's encirclement and suppression, I haven't seen an aquatic demonic beast yet."

Stopping the pen in his hand, Ryan asked with a little curiosity, it's not that he hasn't seen Warcraft, he has even seen a dragon standing at the top of the pyramid when he was on an expedition to Andes before, but aquatic ones are indeed much rarer.

Hans saw that Lane had accepted it, and knew that the purpose of the trip had been achieved, and seeing that Lane was interested, he picked out the key points.

But he didn't notice Ryan's frowning brows, originally he thought that this battle should be very smooth, after all, a team plus a lineup of intermediate knights, just a monster is not ready to be captured?

But I didn't expect that not only did I fight for a long time, but there were also many wounded, looking at Hans's expression, it seemed that this record was still very good?

Ryan didn't have much experience in fighting Warcraft, but he also knew that this result was not normal, after all, Level 3 Warcraft was really nothing in the Warcraft Mountain Range.

Together, thousands, tens of thousands of demonic beasts poured out, including many high-level demonic beasts, how much loss do you have to pay according to this battle damage to carry it over?

Soon, Ryan knew that he was stupid, not that the Warcraft was too strong, but that his own side was too weak, and if there was equipment such as trebuchets or heavy crossbow arrows, the third-level Warcraft would be a live target, and he could play as he wanted.

As far as their equipment is concerned, they have no ability to kill with one blow at all, and they can only rely on the advantage of numbers to slowly grind it to death.

With such poor equipment, the fact that not a single person under Hans's command was killed was enough proof of his ability.

"Knight Hans, I remember that Kanna Territory also encountered a beast tide before, how did you spend it at that time, the monster is so powerful, it seems that it can't be stopped by the city wall alone, right?"

Ryan finally asked the doubts in his heart.

Hearing this, Hans sighed and said, "Kanna has indeed experienced several sieges of beast tides, but according to my grandfather, the number of demonic beasts is actually not much, and the fourth level is basically not seen.

And at that time, there were still two trebuchets in the territory, which were said to be able to throw projectiles weighing dozens of pounds, and even third-level demonic beasts could not resist them, so they could be repelled. ”

Ryan's brows furrowed even deeper when he heard this, he knew that the trebuchet was that he hadn't seen the armory, could it be that he was defeated by a ruined lord?

"I haven't seen that trebuchet either, I think it was damaged when it happened, and if it had, it would have been taken out and used a long time ago."

Hans seemed to have guessed what Ryan was trying to say, and spread his hands to say the answer that Ryan least wanted to hear.

"Well, did you send someone to haul the corpse? There are still a lot of valuable things on the body of the monster, and the blood also needs to be preserved, and Mr. Liman can use the potion on his side. ”

That's right, after Liman had proved the potion effective that day, Ryan had given him an errand the next day, which was to dispense the potion.

As the only medical treatment he could count on now, Ryan offered him a month's salary of five hundred silver deleters, and a bonus depending on the number of potions he had.

Moreover, the materials for the preparation of the pharmaceutical agent are also provided by the Government Affairs Department, which is already quite a lucrative condition, and it is also very satisfactory to Liman.

"Understood, I'll pay attention when the time comes, it's time to inspect the city defenses, I'll retreat first."

Hans nodded, and said goodbye to Ryan.

Looking at the back of his departure, Ryan fell into thought, because the gunpowder could not be made for a while, the artillery naturally had no shadow.

But the territory cannot lack heavy weapons, in addition to trebuchets, what Ryan can think of is bed crossbows and ballistas, these are the more complete weapons developed in this world, and relatively speaking, there are more possibilities to build.

In the end, Ryan targeted the trebuchet, although the process of a small trebuchet is complicated, and it can be rough in the early stage, after all, the lethality is still very considerable.

Ryan is also half-baked about the construction of trebuchets, he only remembers rough drawings, and the details are not clear, only for the craftsmen of the territory to figure it out, but at least there is a direction.

Ryan nearly went bald in order to draw a drawing, and it wasn't until noon that the drawing finally stood out in the pile of scraps, albeit a little sketchy.

After looking at his "masterpiece" with satisfaction, Ryan felt that he was still very talented in drawing, and couldn't help but smile.

After looking at the time, Ryan remembered that he planned to go to Liman's workshop today, after all, the fact that this person did not say that he was a transcendent person in the end, made Ryan always have some doubts in his heart, and he still had to contact more.

After hurriedly eating the lunch prepared by the new head chef Joel, Ryan got into the carriage and headed north of the city, surrounded by Ham and others.

Because of the preciousness of the alchemy potion, Ryan asked him to build a small workshop next to the barracks, so that the army could react and support quickly if something happened.

Of course, if he made any moves, it would be the same, he told Alan to send someone to keep an eye on him, and if there was any abnormal movement, he would directly suppress it.

The ornate carriage drove on the potholed road, and the idea of paving the road inexorably popped up in Ryan's mind, and for the time being, no matter what happened outside, it was still necessary to improve the city first.

"Once the existing works are completed, the roads will be repaired, and the search for the veins should be put on the agenda."

Ryan thought as he looked at the rut marks left by the carriage as it passed.

Although it was not long, the attitude of the city leaders towards Ryan was a visible change to the naked eye, and wherever the procession passed, the leaders bowed or knelt on the ground to salute.

There was also this scene when he entered the city, but at that time the attitude towards him was mostly fear and awe, and now, the reverence is clearly greater than the fear.

I have to say it's a good start......
