Chapter 221: Arms Dealer (I)
In the warm sunshine, the sound of weapons striking in the castle's school grounds, the roars of warriors, and the shouts of the crowd resounded. In the barracks where the Ice Queen Caterina is stationed, a cruel and bloody martial arts competition is being staged at this moment. The winner will become the captain of the commando team, responsible for directing the death squad to charge into battle.
With a grizzly roar, the Lonely Wind warrior struck the Silver Sword Knight from Kislev to the ground with a single hammer, and just as he was about to deliver the fatal blow, the Silver Sword Knight deftly dodged it. He struck the Black Hammer warrior's head with the hilt of his sword, and the sturdy iron helmet clanged.
The warrior was smashed to the ground, took a few steps back, and almost fell to the ground. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Silver Sword Knight stood up violently and counterattacked. The swordfish burst out, reflecting a blinding silver light in the sunlight. The crowd screamed, but just as the sword was about to plunge into the warrior's chest, the warrior reached out his left hand, which was not gripping the hammer, and slammed into the sword. The blade tore through the glove, blood oozing from the leather armor. However, the silver longsword could not press down for another half a point.
Immediately after, a surprising scene occurred, the warrior grabbed the blade of the sword and kicked away the knight with his right foot. The knight was kicked to the ground, and was about to get up when a terrifying black shadow appeared overhead. The Black Hammer warrior grabbed the bloody sword and stabbed it into the knight's throat with a roar.
Blood spurted out of the knight's severed throat like a fountain, instantly staining the warrior's hands red. At the same time, it also ignited the atmosphere on the field. The soldiers did not lament the death of the knight, but cheered for the birth of the warrior. Caterina, the queen on stage, also raised a light smile.
"Your name, Warrior?"
The witch beside the queen shouted loudly to the warriors on the field.
"Griner, my name is Griner Black Hammer. Her Majesty. ”
The warrior replied breathlessly. His blood could not stop oozing from the palm of his hand, dripping to the ground, dried up by the sun.
"I remember your name, Warrior Grinner. From now on, you are the captain of the Blood Wolf Commando. May you be as brave on the battlefield as you are today. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do. ”
Caterina whispered.
"Alright, now, let's move on to the next one. ”
As soon as the words were finished, the queen's attendants hurried over, bowed their heads and reported to Caterina -
"Your Majesty, there is a merchant outside the door asking to see you. ”
"Not all businessmen can meet the queen. ”
Marilyn, the witch beside Katerina, whispered.
"I know, but this one is different. He claimed to be a Tyrell arms dealer and possessed the Empire's firearms, as well as all the weapons used by the Northern Army. ”
The waiter whispered.
Katerina's brow furrowed, then she smiled contemptuously, "Let him in." She said.
A few minutes later, the richly dressed Tyrell merchant appeared in front of the Ice Queen. Vlaar smiled and bowed, looking relaxed in the face of Kislev's most dangerous and ruthless Ice Queen. He shook his clothes freely and stood beside Katarina.
"You're from the Tyrells?"
Caterina asked with a smile. Her words were tepid, but there was a hint of contempt in them.
Vlaar is not a fool, he naturally knows. However, when he came to the Queen's barracks, he was already ready.
"Yes, Her Majesty. Vlaar replied with a smile, raising his right hand with confidence. "It's a lively place, Her Majesty's army is heroic and extraordinary. ”
Caterina ignored the merchant's obedient words, and she listened to such a polite opening sentence countless times, and her ears were almost calloused. However, judging by the dress of this southern businessman, Caterina has a certain interest in him. Like other wealthy merchants, Vlaar wore the most expensive clothes, and even the servants were dressed lavishly. And he himself is not a vulgar person wearing gold and silver, but he pays great attention to the matching of clothes, simple black and white, which constitute the whole of his clothing. The details and parts are set in gold and silver, and the emerald and gemstone ring is worn on the hand, although it is not the most expensive, but it is very elegant and matches the temperament of the individual. Longlong
"Tell me what's the point, you're going to make a deal with me?"
Caterina interrupted Vlaar in annoyance. She was supposed to be friendly and polite in her reception of foreign businessmen. But the war is urgent, and the Northern Army has already been assembled and will move south at any time. She must hurry up and fight for every inch of land.
"Yes, Her Majesty. ”
Vlaar said, the smile that never left his lips.
"I know that Kislev is fighting a protracted war, and I have all the weapons of your adversary, the Northern Legion. Let's put it this way, the most powerful long-range weapon in the Rhodes army, the repeating gun, was my masterpiece back then. I was the one who invented it and sold it to Rhodes. ”
Vlar deliberately spoke halfway through his speech, trying to observe Queen Katarina's expression. found that the other party was expressionless all the time, and the Ice Queen's face was like frozen ice, without even a trace of frowning. In other words, there are no emotional fluctuations on the part of the trading partner. This was originally explosive news on the side of the Ice Queen, but it became dispensable nonsense......
Vlaar was a little annoyed, but the queen was quick to reply.
"You sold weapons to my enemies and let that traitor kill countless Lady Keshley with your weapons. Is that so?"
Caterina asked. Her tone was so cold that it made her hair stand on end.
But Vlaar is not a vegetarian either, and after so many years of living as a king, he has long been accustomed to this bloody scene.
"Well, that's right. ”
He said bluntly.
The guard was about to make a move, but was stopped by a gesture from him—
"However, my weapons have also killed countless northern barbarians. I can assure you that there were many more Norsca invaders and greenskins who died under the fire cannon than Kislev's soldiers. ”
Vlaar smiled.
"In this world, I am the only one who has mastered the technique of continuous artillery, except for the dwarves under Rhodes. ”
He was like a proud general, boasting in front of the queen. It just has to be said that he is telling the truth.
Caterina turned her head and stared at him with a pair of blue eyes.
"Make an offer. Your invention. ”
The Ice Queen asked straight to the point.
Vlaar straightened up, stood aside, and stretched out two fingers of his right hand. That firm expression seemed to say that there is no price.
"Two thousand gold?"
The Frost Witch beside the Queen asked.
"No, no, no. One digit less. ”
Vlaar returned with a smile.
