How to deal with a large flock of griffons?

These magical beasts have strong physical strength and can easily carry two to three adults into the sky, coupled with their huge size and sharp beaks and claws, their melee strength can be imagined.

Some trainers also trained griffins to carry boulder hammers to throw at high altitudes, which were much more lethal than the crossbows and javelins used by griffin knights.

This kind of special flight unit that dominates the air and land amphibious in far and close combat can be said to be a high-end branch of the army in Faerun, and the average infantry can only be slaughtered.

You must know that the famous and powerful Griffin Knights in Sergech have only a few hundred regular members.

Although such a griffin knight requires strict training and streamlining, and only the strongest and best members will stay, which is not the same thing as a 'griffin riding bandit', but even so, the presence of so many griffons in this small place is enough to defy the sky.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the Lion Owl Thieves can squeeze out other forces and seize control of the town.

Penny pondered, walked outside the mansion, and found a group of gray dwarves building a hole in the clearing by the river, and suddenly had an idea, called the leader of the gray dwarves, Ruric: "How long will it take you to dig a hole?"

"Oh, with our technology, it only takes a few days. Ruric smiled at Penny and waved his hoe.

Panidore glanced at it, and noticed that the hoe had a strange style, and that it had all the functions of digging and digging, and through this detail, he knew that the dwarves were indeed extraordinary in the fields in which they were adept.

"What's the matter, what's the matter?" Luric asked again in a gruff voice when he saw that the mage was stunned.

"Oh, yes, I wish I could change the way this hole looks...... It would be nice to have a solid stone roof on top, and it would be nice to have some metal frames on top, and a layer of thatch or soft mud on top of it......" Penny said for a while, and saw that Rurick looked puzzled, "It's just to find a way to make these cavities resistant to attacks from the air, like the griffons that day." ”

Grey dwarves generally don't have a high IQ, and Penny explained it thoroughly, and it was only then that Luric understood: "I see, it's a good idea." ”

He smacked his lips as he spoke: "That's a wonderful idea, you know, you don't have to think about those things in underground life." ”

Of course, there is no air force in the dark area, and of course there is no need for a bomb shelter. Penny muttered to himself, and thought about the shape of the bunker in his memory: "By the way, the part of the wall that is exposed to the ground should be as thick as possible, and there should be more windows to leave enough shooting holes." ”

"My lord, to deal with those monsters, we need some crossbow arrows, and we need to use special arrows to effectively form lethality. Rurec thought for a moment, and his experience in underground combat gave him advice.

Sean thought for a moment and nodded, indeed, such a thick feather-like arrow was really helpless.

"Actually, it's not a difficult task, you only need to use tools for simple processing, and you can make hundreds of them a day, but my lord, we don't have those things......" Saying this, Lurick sighed and licked his lips, "I really want to shoot those beasts." ”

"I think we'll have a chance. Penny Sean frowned, "Can you make a crossbow?"

"We don't have the materials...... Rurick spread his hands, "My lord, we lack even the most basic tools. ”

Penny Sean thought for a while, then went back to the room and took out a pen and paper, and a ruler, and it took him an afternoon to draw a dozen drawings.

These are relatively primitive and simple machines.

Penny wasn't sure that the laws of the other world would still work in this world, because there was magic in this world - it allowed people to use non-logical powers, so logic was uncertain in this world - Sean wasn't sure if he could use coils and magnets to generate electricity in this world, but at least he knew that the pyrotechnic powder in this world could only be prepared in small quantities with alchemy, and the recipe was not the same as in the other world.

At the end of the day, it's a world dominated by magic, which replaces almost all the laws of logic that produce science.

However, as long as water heating can still produce steam, and power can still be transmitted through gears and mechanical parts, then industry will still have value in this world.

In fact, Sean was a complete mechanical novice before he was reborn, and the source of these drawings came from Feron himself.

More than 10,000 years ago, Imaska was also good at machinery, and many of the arcane knowledge and mechanical principles of this ancient empire were preserved in Penny's mind.

When this knowledge is mixed with the consciousness of the traveler, what is produced by fermentation is a little scary.

At least let him know how to use the rules of this world to reflect the power of another world.

And in Faeron, which has such a thing as magic, it seems easier to achieve those effects.

For example, the power of Penny's right hand makes it easier to create magical tools than ordinary mages, an ability he hasn't used a few times since he has used this kind of charism.

Penny was working on a repeating crossbow that could fire a large number of crossbow arrows like a rocket launcher, or magic armor that would turn a person into a superman, but when he finished writing a few sheets of paper, he remembered that the most basic raw material problem had not yet been solved, so he stopped his design work and began to ponder.

Apparently he didn't have time to open a mine - this is not something that can be done in a short period of time, maybe he can find a way to go north and south to procure?

Penny was already thinking about where he could buy a lot of metal or get some mercenaries. He pulled out a new piece of parchment and began to record a list of purchases.

"Sean, come and do me a favor. Just then, Hughes's voice came from outside the door, and Penny walked to Hughes's yard and found him arranging a magic pattern in the center of the room, which he observed for a while and recognized:

"You're setting up a waywayway?"

"Not bad. Hughes waved the sweat on his round face: "In this way, when I'm outside, I can send it back through the teleportation technique, quick, help me." ”

Penny joined in the task of setting up the circle, and while helping, he asked, "You can't use teleportation yet, so you have a treasure on you that can teleport?"

"Uh......" Hughes was stunned for a moment, then scratched his bald head, "Yes, I have some teleportation scrolls, if one day we encounter danger that we can't handle, we can teleport and escape." ”

"So, now you can teleport to the country?" Penny's eyes lit up.

"Not bad. Hughes nodded.

"Great, I remember that there seemed to be such a teleportation sign in the center of the city of Serre, now can we teleport to Sanophon?" Penny asked.

Sanophon is the capital of Sazaha province.

"I'm going to go there and buy something. Seeing Hughes's puzzled expression, Penny added.

"Oh, that's fine, I'm familiar with the city. Hughes pulled out a scroll: "You help me set up the road sign first, or we won't be able to come back." ”

"Well, it's kind of breaking the bank. Penny looked at the scroll and suddenly remembered that the fifth-level magic scroll was not something that ordinary people could afford.

"Uh...... In fact, if this kind of thing is used to escape, the fate is too tragic. Hughes smiled at Sean, "I just hope it can be as good as it deserves, not just a waste." ”

"Don't worry. Penny nodded, "We're going to get what we want." ”

"What do you want?" Hughes yawned, "I'm just accompanying you on an adventure, and maybe when I'm old, this will become some memories of my life worth revisiting...... Before my life became completely boring. ”

"Who knows for sure in the future?" Penny shook his head in dismay.

......

There are people in the background, and people open the door to convenience wherever they go.

When Sean arrived at Sanophon, it was only when he really reflected the influence of Hughes, the power of the nth generation, as soon as he walked out of the teleportation array, someone beckoned the carriage to come and serve him attentively, and after asking the purpose, he sent the two of them to the car and went straight to the Chamber of Commerce.

"I really don't like that. But someone who enjoys this power is clearly dissatisfied: "Every time I 'enjoy' these things, it reminds me of my identity and my inescapable fate." ”

"Actually, such a fate is what every ordinary Searle person looks forward to. Penny shook his head noncommittally, "Everyone has their own troubles. ”

"Perhaps, it's just that I have too many meaningless thoughts. Hughes shook his head. The groom reminded them that their purpose had been reached, and the two stepped out of the car and into a large building.

The city is adjacent to the mountains of the Exodus, and there are many adventurers who come and go, so the arms trade is also frequent, but Hughes tells Penny that every transaction here is actually in the records of the Governor's Palace, and the largest supplier of weapons is also the ruler of the city.

"Every penny here ends up in the Governor's pocket. Passing by the Waujin Temple at the gate, Hughes said with emotion: "The city's arms revenue accounts for one-tenth of the income of the Daramos family." ”

"House Dalamos? It is said that the Governor seems to be retiring. ”

"Retirement?" is a topic that has been talked about for twenty years, but I've always wondered if he's been transformed into another species like the chief of the necromancy. Hughes scoffed.

"Uh...... By the way, which family does that chief lord belong to?" Penny suddenly asked, in the Red Robe Mage Society, Sazastan's influence was everywhere, and he was extremely curious about this legendary lich who had controlled the Red Robe Mage Society for more than 200 years.

"He, we rarely put the family name in front of his name, because his influence has long since transcended the boundaries of the family. Hughes suddenly sighed: "At the height of his power, during the years of the Tucan invasion, any Ser had to look at his face. ”

Penny nodded, in that great battle that swept the entire East Feren, Sazastan did do a very beautiful thing, that Chinese New Year's Eve more than 300,000 menacing Tucan nomadic tribal cavalry, under the leadership of the wise ruler Yamen Khan, rushed from the endless wilderness into East Feeron, and launched an attack on the desperate Eastern Regions, Sere bore the brunt, but Sazastan made the Tukan people end their invasion of Sele through negotiations and negotiations, and set up a teleportation array to teleport these Tukans to the depths of Lethman in the north- The Toucans' westward march did not stop until the distant western shore of the Fallen Star Sea, and all the nations in the way were attacked by them, with Lytherman suffering particularly heavy losses, while Searle suffered almost no losses in this incident.

Sazastan brought his influence and prestige to the peak with this beautiful hand of calamity, and is still talked about by the younger generations of the Mage Guild.

"But officially, he has been the head of DalamΓ³s for more than a hundred years. Hughes sighed.

"So, Sazaha is his territory?"

"A few decades ago, all of Serde was his turf. Hughes raised an eyebrow.

Penny nodded, stopped talking, grabbed a few weapons from the weapon stand and looked at them for a while, his brow furrowing.

Most of these weapons are made of bronze.

The forging industry in the Desperate Eastern Regions is not well developed, in fact, apart from the dwarves, the only people who really use iron tools on a large scale are the human countries in the area near Cormier, and in other places, iron tools are high-grade goods.

Holding these copper things to deal with griffins, Penny's self-confidence is not very high.

"These are defective products produced locally, and if you want to buy ironware, you have to go upstairs. Hughes looked familiar, and glanced at the waiter, "Follow me." ”
