046 Electricity, tents and dancing on barrels

After sharing the information, Wang looked at the time and said to Nini, "Let's continue yesterday's class again in the evening, and I'll go to the ground first." ”

Elizabeth asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?" Worried about Lancelot's Order going bad? ”

Wang: "No, ask the dwarf bard if he can recruit a few skilled dwarf craftsmen, since he has a gravitational core, he will naturally have to use him." Tomorrow we'll go see another Colossus, and there's a gravitational core in it. ”

Elizabeth: "What can electricity do?" Isn't this thing only capable of attacking others? ”

Wang: "There are many things that can be done, such as installing engines on our island to speed up travel. Another example is that it can be illuminated, so that the whole island is the same at night as during the day, and people who live on the ground no longer have to sleep at night.

"Of course, you can use it to attack others, you can get an electric bed crossbow or something. In short, striding into the electric age will greatly help to improve our combat effectiveness. ”

With that, he stepped into the elevator, and Elizabeth hurried to follow.

The king looked at her strangely: "What are you doing here?" ”

Elizabeth: "Follow...... You! You've ventured all day today, and you're ...... That one...... I'm going to follow anyway, don't worry about it. ”

Since Elizabeth said so, the king really didn't care.

Xiaobai paced into the elevator with the back of his head with both hands, watching the two interact.

Flint also followed up on the elevator: "I'm the parish priest of Kailin here, and I have to stay in the 'temple' at all times, and when will I build a roof for the temple, but now it looks too shabby with that canvas shed." ”

Wang: "It's okay to make do with it, and now it's a priority to build houses for everyone." It's autumn now, and to plan for winter, we can't stay in the tropics forever. As for the temple, everyone usually goes there for a drink, and it doesn't take long for a canvas to make do. ”

The dwarf was speechless: "I've been basking in the sun in the temple lately, I'm really not used to it, I can drink a big bucket of water every day." I thought I was well adapted to life on the ground. ”

Elizabeth: "Wait until Rosalie gets the sun protection gear, and she'll get you one." ”

Wang: "Actually, as long as he takes off the armor of that stuffy jar, the water consumption will be solved immediately." ”

"yes," Flint patted his head, "I didn't think I could take off my armor." Anyway, my armor can be recalled, so I can put it on immediately even in case of emergency. ”

As he spoke, the elevator reached the ground.

The moment the elevator door opened, everyone subconsciously squinted their eyes. For outside stood a bunch of knights in shiny armor, blinding everyone's eyes in the harsh afternoon sun.

It can be seen that the equipment of the Knights is really good.

Teresa noticed the elevator first, and then saluted the king, "Your Excellency the city lord." ”

Wang: "What about Your Excellency?" ”

Teresa: "He's in the company of Lord Rosalie, in the company of the Lord's Temple. ”

Elizabeth quietly corrected her statement: "It turns out that the bishop is accompanying Rosalie to choose a site for the temple." ”

Teresa glanced at Elizabeth: "The cardinal is one of the four cardinals under the papal throne, and he is the spokesman of my lord on earth, even if you are the princess of Monrovia, you do not deserve to be ......"

The king pointed to Flint: "What is the mere spokesperson on the ground, we and Kailin's electors and envoys are also under Rosalie's control." ”

Flint: "Huh? Oh yes, I'm going to be in her hands, and I'm going to have to report to her if I want to change the wooden roof of the temple. ”

Teresa stared at Flint for a few seconds, then at the leprechaun who had been following the king, and finally chose to shut up.

King: "What about the dwarf bards who came with your ship?" ”

Teresa: "Lord Gaines is playing music in front of Kaylin's altar. ”

Then the king noticed that there was music coming from the altar where the barrels were piled up in Flint.

The main thing just came up, and the reflection of the knight's armor was too bad.

Wang: "Let's go, let's see." ”

After saying that, he went straight to that side.

Elizabeth held the hem of her skirt and gave Teresa a farewell.

After the group walked away, the paladin beside Teresa asked, "This is the Salvation Squad?" No wonder there are so many pornographic jokes. ”

Lancelot has life in his authority, so his order is not against pornography, but he doesn't like lewdness, and pornography is just for the sake of life.

Teresa glared at the paladin, "Hurry up and get to work." ”

Rosalie rowed a riverboat towed onto the floating island to the Crusaders, and now the Crusaders were busy adding support for the relay. Originally, the Pelican Gang only got a few rocks to jam the bottom of the boat, but this was obviously not possible by the standards of the Knights.

Not to mention anything else, so many armored knights, living in the cabin makes the center of gravity of the ship rise, and the ship will capsize.

So now the Crusaders are working with the Pelican Gang assigned by Rosalie to fortify the foundation.

After the rapping paladin went back to work, Teresa glanced in the direction the Salvation Squad had left and snorted.

The king led the way to Flint's barrel altar, and saw the dwarf bardβ€”presumably Gaines, according to Teresaβ€”standing on three stacked casks of arhats, playing the lute.

He swayed his body to the rhythm as he played, and the barrel of the three-tiered arhat shook as if his body was continuing.

Elizabeth couldn't help but admire: "So strong! The last time I saw a performance like this was in a circus! ”

Flint: "There are many kinds of bards, and some bards are as nimble as long-eared. β€οΌˆ*οΌ‰

The conversation made Gaines, who was concentrating on playing, raise his head, and he immediately smiled: "It's you!" ”

As he spoke, he stopped playing and jumped off the barrel, not knowing what technique he used, but after he took off, the barrel that had been shaking to his rhythm was folded automatically, and it was stable.

Gaines fell to the ground and was about to stretch out his hand to the king, when the child watching the play next to him shouted, "We haven't seen enough!" One more! ”

Gaines took out five apples, expertly threw them into the air, performed a vaudeville toss, and when all the children were clapping and laughing, he threw the apples into the children's hands one by one.

"Go eat apples, I've got business to talk about."

As soon as Gaines finished speaking, the children dispersed.

Then he looked at Wang: "I just remembered, I haven't introduced myself yet." It was probably caused by the excitement of seeing the first recorded floating city since the fall of the Cyclops Empire.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am a first-class explorer of the Explorers Guild, the chief graduate of the 99th class of the Bard Academy of the Thorn Islands, Thorpe Gaines!"

Wang: "That's it?" I thought you were going to recite a poem or something. ”

Gaines smiled: "The poetry is also used on the Academy Cup." ”

Elizabeth: "House Cup? ”

Wang: "A competitive event organized by the Bard Academy of the Thorn Islands. ”

Elizabeth: "Oh. ”

Gaines: "Since you've come to me, ......?"

Wang: "Do you have a way to recruit dwarf craftsmen?" The kind that can build power systems. ”

Gaines was directly embarrassed: "What? You're not looking for me, are you? How did I hear that the Salvation Squad had been longing for a bard? ”

Wang: "We do want to, but we want to see if you are reliable." And now we need dwarf craftsmen. ”

Gaines pouted: "The dwarf craftsmen who can fiddle with electricity are basically in high positions, which is not so easy to find." ”

Wang: "Well, find someone who is not familiar with electricity, but is very good at making fine metal parts." ”

Gaines: "This ...... That's a lot, and it should be said that every dwarf craftsman is good at this. ”

The Bard was originally skilled in the skill of "tumbling", which in some places translates to "vaudeville", and was removed from the 5E version (aka Baldur's Gate 3).
