56: Strategic Magician

The battle situation was urgent, and after a brief secret meeting, the three left the stronghold of the defenders and headed to their respective battlefields.

Ryan was on the city walls to direct the battle of the city, while Evelyn sat in the military headquarters of the city lord's mansion, responsible for handling the battle reports and personnel deployment of the various armies during the war.

As for Nolan, his mission is to create a new city defense magic cannon for the army as quickly as possible at all costs.

At this time, he had a total of four chapters on his body: one was the Ouroboros badge of the alchemist, one was the armband of the 621 Independent Combat Unit, and one was the badge of the head of the Knights.

The other is the seal of the Baihat family that Evelyn gave him before leaving.

In particular, the badge of the last head of the Knights and the seal of the Baihat family, which represent the recognition of him by the highest military and political forces in Apex City, respectively.

This directly transformed him from an "ordinary alchemist" and "an ordinary knight in the army" to an actual ruler who can call the wind and rain in Linfeng City.

The row is full of yes.

"Lord Nolan."

Standing beside him was a red-haired knight, "I am Julius, the leader of the sixth squad of the Knights, and I will be at your disposal during this time, following the orders of Captain Lane. ”

"Good." Nolan bowed, "You go to the Alchemy Society first, gather all the alchemists who can help make weapons, and I'll go to my own workshop to get equipment blueprints, and I'll meet you later." ”

"Gather the alchemists, and let the men do it."

Julius summoned a few words from the members of his team, and then said, "During the war, I will escort you throughout the whole process to ensure that your orders can be conveyed in the most efficient way. ”

"Huh...... It's really reliable. Noren curled the corners of his mouth and got into the carriage of the City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, as one of the most powerful people in Linfeng City, it was normal for him to be accompanied by a knight squad when he traveled.

Led by the Knights' team, Noren's carriage arrived at the door of his workshop unimpeded, and he dug out the relevant manufacturing drawings from the laboratory, and when he left, he stopped by to take a look at Rogen's studio next door.

Luo was really about to perform leg replacement surgery on Yuna, who had just left the battlefield, and when he saw Noren "breaking" in with a stack of drawings, he couldn't help but blow his beard and stare at him:

"Do you still have a conscience, are you going to tire Lao Tzu to death?"

After scolding, he found that there was a knight of the Order with a kind expression standing next to Nolan, and Noren was wearing a badge that seemed to be very powerful on his chest.

"Sir, watch out for your words."

Julius crossed his hands at the door, and reminded with an expressionless face, "Lord Noren is the acting person of the City Lord's Mansion and the head of the Knights, and this is a special time, please cooperate with us to fulfill the obligations of every people of the empire." ”

"Huh?" Luo Zhen's face darkened, "You use this to press me, right?" ”

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I just came over to take a look." Noren put away the blueprints in his hand, "This is not a task for you, you just need to take care of the White Raven and Valkyrie equipment."

"I'll leave two people at the door, and if there's anything you need, just tell them directly, and they'll do their best to accommodate you."

"A task for someone else?" Luo Zhenqi said, "Have you found other helpers?" ”

"It's smaller." Nolan smiled, "I'm looking for more than one or two helpers, I'm going to get the entire Alchemy Society to help me make weapons." ”

"Okay, why don't you give them my work, I'm just happy to be free."

"That's definitely not going to work, you are an indispensable talent for our alchemy team, and I can rest assured that the secret weapon in my hand will be handed over to you."

"Heh, slippery boy, if you don't have anything else to do, get out of here, don't delay my surgery."

"Roger, grew."

Noren waved his hand and left with the Knights.

In the studio, Luo Zhen glanced up at his departing back, and his heart was full of emotion.

I still remember the first time I met Nolan, he was just a fledgling "novice" who had just become an alchemist, and he once made a bold statement to him:

"I came from nothing all the way up, and I'm not afraid to wear shoes barefoot."

"It's better to say that heroes are born in troubled times, although the current situation is full of dangers, as long as you find the right way, isn't it an opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune?"

When he heard these words and saw his eyes, he felt that this son would become a great weapon in the future.

As expected, for more than a month, he watched Noren slowly build up his own forces, and then from joining the army to growing into the commander of the Knights.

Hmph, my vision of knowing people is really vicious as always!

……

When Noren arrived at the Alchemy Society, the president of the Alchemy Society and the directors had been gathered under the arrangement of the Knights and waited for him at the gate of the Society.

Seeing that the carriage of the City Lord's Mansion had stopped at the gate of the Society, President Fast whispered to Wilson, the director on the side:

"Richard, Robinson...... I'm familiar with all the alchemists in the City Lord's Mansion, and I don't know who came over this time. ”

The commission of the City Lord's Mansion is demanding and the remuneration is small, but it has to be done, and it is a notoriously messy, which is well known in the Alchemy Society.

It's just that now that Linfeng City is in a period of war, everyone has a common enemy and goal, and there are no special complaints about the arbitrary dispatch of the City Lord's Mansion.

"I don't know who it's coming, I just know we're going to be busy." Wilson shook his head, "I hope this time the City Lord's Mansion won't arrange some commissions for us that are difficult for strongmen." ”

Just as everyone was talking, a young man in a black robe stepped down from the carriage of the City Lord's Mansion.

Although it was an unfamiliar face, the respectful knight squad and the eye-catching knight badge on his chest had confirmed his identity from the side.

"Who is this, the newly recruited alchemist of the City Lord's Mansion? How can you be so young? ”

President Fast muttered, and seeing that Wilson on the side was a little stunned, he tugged at his sleeve robe and said, "Let's go, let's go over and say hello to him." ”

"Hmm......" Wilson reacted, and followed him forward with a strange expression.

Nolan looked at the group of alchemists gathered at the door, and was still hesitating who was among them, when he saw an old man with gray hair walking over with a familiar face.

Isn't this the director Wilson who helped him pass the alchemist exam before, what a coincidence?

"My lord, I'm Fast Burt, the president of the Alchemy Society of Peak City."

The white old man took the lead in stepping forward and saluted, "This is Wilson Mengsk, the director of the Alchemy Society, and he is also the high-level alchemist who is the best at magic circle in Linfeng City. ”

"Noren Wises, this time I came here to give an urgent commission to the Society on behalf of the Military Department of the City Lord's Mansion."

Noren nodded to Wilson, then looked at Faster and said solemnly, "The enemy troops have already approached the city, and our army urgently needs a batch of weapons to defend the city." ”

He handed over to Fast the manufacturing drawings of the new city defense magic cannon: "The battle situation is urgent, I need the Alchemy Society to cast and assemble these parts within a day, learn how to divide labor internally, and you can distribute it yourself." ”

"One day!?"

Fast shook his hand as he took the drawing, "Are you kidding?" ”

The weapons defending the city are basically strategic-level magic guides loaded with spells above the fifth order, and it takes a long time just to draw a huge magic circle, how can it be done in one day?

This bastard is the second generation of officials who came into the City Lord's Mansion by his connections, and he gave such an unreliable order, is the Ouroboros badge on his chest fake!

"I'm not kidding you, Lord."

Nolan looked directly into Fast's eyes, "I only need the Alchemy Society to help make the shell parts of the city-defending weapons, and as for the core spell array, our military department has its own way to handle it." ”

"This ......," Fast was stunned, he had never heard such a strange request.

It's as if someone asked him to refine a bottle of potion, but when he asked carefully, it turned out that the client asked him to make the bottle instead of the potion itself.

Wilson on the side reacted quickly, he took the manufacturing drawings and glanced at them twice, and frowned: "If it's just like this, it's really possible to make it in one day."

"But...... Is the base of the circle here missized? If I'm not mistaken, the size of the circle of "Sky Burning Flame" is seven meters one in diameter, but the length and width of the pedestal you reserved are only one meter five meters wide? ”

No, maybe it's not a mislabel, because the other parts are also about the same size, which shows that the finished product of this new city defense magic cannon was designed to be this size!

"There's nothing wrong with the drawings."

Nolan nodded meaningfully at Wilson, and then said, "Since one day is enough, let's work hard to make them out of the way."

"At the moment of the great enemy, even if we alchemists can't go to the front line, we can fight in our own way, and your hard work will eventually turn into a strong shield against the enemy, may the glory of the Roland Empire be with us."

After explaining many things, Nolan got into the carriage back to the workshop.

He will not be idle while waiting for the Alchemy Society to produce the finished product, there is still a little progress before the Valkyrie equipment is completely "psychic induction", he must hurry up and make the remaining spiritual pathways and install them, and completely iterate her equipment before Yuna's next attack.

At the door of the Alchemy Society, Fast looked at Wilson, who was stunned, sighed and patted him on the shoulder:

"It's really uncomfortable to encounter such a strange client, how can such a small-sized magic guide be loaded with a high-level magic circle? This is ridiculous!

"That kid doesn't know what ecstasy soup he poured into the City Lord's Mansion, and he actually let him be in charge of manufacturing city defense weapons, which is completely deceptive to the army! When the time comes, the weapons that will be made are not the right ones, so don't let him throw the blame on us......"

"No...... That's not true. ”

Unlike the worried Fast, Wilson's eyes suddenly flashed with a fine light, and his heart beat violently in an instant.

He remembered that Nolan had told him when he was applying for research that he had created a new system of magical runes, which had now entered the experimental stage.

Combined with the current status of Noren in the City Lord's Mansion, and the new type of city defense magic cannon he designed......

It is not difficult to speculate that the results of his experiments have been affirmed by the City Lord's Mansion, and this new rune system has been put into practical applications!

Thinking of this, Wilson no longer doubted, and replied firmly: "Just do what the drawings ask, Lord Fast."

"If we make progress fast enough, we may be able to witness ...... tomorrow morning"

"Witness what?" Fast asked subconsciously.

"β€”Witness a revolution in alchemy."
