Chapter 69 Exploding Gold Coins Fiercely
After confirming that the identity of Sissi’s secret party undercover agent was correct, Horn quickly led the Holy Grail Knights and a brigade of Guards to the bottom of the slope to explode gold coins.
By the time Horn arrived down the slope, except for a few of Sissi's guards, the remaining armored sergeants had all disappeared.
Probably they saw the defeat of our army and ran away directly.
Over the guard's shoulder, Horn looked forward.
On the narrow path surrounded by shrubs and groves, the sun shines on the ground through the gaps in the leaves, and the sunlight draws crisscrossed shadows of algae on the ground.
On this narrow dirt road, which was only two miles away, ten large and sturdy vehicles were forced into it.
The reins of the cart were all removed. It was originally designed to prevent robbers from pulling the cart away, but it turned out that everything was easier for Horn.
Twenty or so horses were leisurely sitting on the grass nearby, munching on lettuce and saw leaves, their soft lips quivering.
These draft horses are not very good draft horses. According to Sissi, these draft horses weigh between 700 pounds and 900 pounds, and their draft strength is about 1,200 pounds. Each cart must be equipped with It takes two or three horses to pull it.
Seeing these horses, Horn could feel the excitement of the people around him. They seemed to have seen the establishment of the First Cavalry Division of the Papal States.
"Okay, go and bring the horse over, be careful."
After explaining to a few guards, Horn, escorted by Jeanne, headed towards the ten The cart approaches.
These ten farm wagons have different shapes, but the overall design is similar.
Each carriage is about 8 feet high, 12 feet long, and 6 feet wide. It is made of solid oak on all sides. The joints of the body are covered with thick leather, and the corners and the intersection of the wooden boards shine with metallic luster. , which are rows of rusty iron nails.
Different from the Chinese carriage in Horn's impression, this carriage has no carriage. Behind the shaft is a large box-like carriage with no seal and covered with canvas.
The carriage wheels under the carriage are about four fingers wide, and the spokes are hung with ragged linen cloth. I don’t know if it is for waterproofing or something.
Each carriage is equipped with two or three sturdy horses. Their hair is tangled, they smell of grease, and their hooves plow uneasily.
What is more eye-catching is that in the corner of the carriage, there is a flag. It is a big white goose printed on red cloth, which should be the logo of the Megdi Chamber of Commerce.
Horn has already seen the banner of Archbishop Barneyforth. It shows a man praying with a black cross in his mouth. There is nothing novel about it.
Walking to a large car, Sissi smiled and introduced to Horn: "These goods were originally going to be sent to the black market. During this period, there must be a shortage of everything in Black Snake Bay, so we can make a lot of money." , I can just take the opportunity to escape."
"Escape?"
"Yes, this flood will not only affect you, but I will also have to run away. I will run away with you tomorrow. Tell me in detail."
As she spoke, Sissi lifted up the tarpaulin covering the carriage to reveal the goods underneath.
“These ten carts hauled approximately 1,660 gallons of grain, 700 yards of coarse woolen cloth, 400 yards of fine woolen cloth, 400 pounds of salt, 400 pounds of iron ingots, 50 pounds of fine iron, and five colors of dyes. 50 lbs.
There are also 10 pounds of Gangan root, 20 pounds of milk medicine, 8 pounds of safflower, and 12 ounces of Warcraft meat... These materials total 100 pounds.
There is also a mess of tools in the department store, which also weighs about 200 pounds. There are all kinds of goods above, which add up to almost 17,000 pounds of goods. ”
Call the accompanying groom, repair the axle and shaft, the draft horse neighs, and Horn returns with a full load of takeaways from Quincy.
Riding on a big horse, Horn calls ahead The guard held the horse, feeling so high for the first time.
Not only did he defeat the church's army, but he also engaged the secret party.
Next, you only need to escape to Black Snake Bay and settle down for two years before you can leave the mountain.
Horn still refuses to give up his dream of a place in the sun.
Although it seems that the secret party has great power in Black Snake Bay and Qianhe River Valley, it is because of the special conditions in these two places.
For a huge empire, it is just the tip of the iceberg.
There are ten nominal provinces in the entire empire. Qianhe River Valley and Black Snake Bay are just two territories under the jurisdiction of Kaimu Province. After walking out of these two areas, the secret party is just a mess of answers.
Even in these two territories, the secret party has to hide.
If there is no other way, Horn really doesn’t want to cooperate with them.
Falling behind Horn, Sissi walked with the others. He took a deep look at Horn and began to communicate with Jeanne and others.
After all, one of the purposes of her trip was to win over this new witch with a plasticity orientation.
"...I see." After asking a few questions related to lightning abilities, Jeanne remembered the chanting spell used by Bonnard earlier, "Sissi, uh, sir, I have a question for you?"
"Just call me Sister Sissi. Among us, men and I have always treated each other as brothers and women as sisters." Sissi rolled her hair charmingly and said, "I think What's the question?"
"What magic did the monk use before?"
"That is a common method used by low-level monks to deal with monsters. The chanting technique only has the effect of interference." Sissi's cowhide boots stepped on the dirty ground, but there was no trace of squeamishness or disgust that matched his noble daughter's appearance.
"This kind of interference is too much. Do all monks know it? Then the church is too powerful."
Facing Jeanne's question, Sissi covered her mouth elegantly and chuckled, making the eyes of several guards around her go straight.
"You think it's effective just because it's the first time you encounter it, and your magic power is too weak and needs time to grow.
When you encounter it again in the future, even if it's hundreds of If the monk reads it together, it will only make you feel like a little mosquito is buzzing."
At this point, Sissi hesitated for half a second, but continued: "I have to remind you, I am. Those familiar witches and wizards once said,
When the magic is strong enough to oppress the soul, the hallucinations will be more terrifying than any pattern. You'd better get used to it now."
Seeing that Sissi talked about a topic that interested him, Horn immediately dismounted and asked the Guards company captains to step aside and prepare to talk to Sissi in detail.
"Actually, I have always wanted to ask, how does a wizard cast a spell?" Horn asked in a low voice from the side, "Look at me, do you still have this chance?"
" Which generation are you, sister Jeanne's witch descendant?" Sissi asked.
"First generation."
"Let me see your spell-like abilities."
"No."
Sisi frowned her beautiful eyebrows: "I'm not a witcher, just tell the truth. This is possible."
Grampwen was standing aside. Smiling, he answered: "That's true. Your Majesty Horn is the first generation dependent, but not only does he have no magic-like abilities, he doesn't even have any sequelae."
There are no sequelae, Sissi looked up and down. He glanced at this honest-looking young man.
After thinking for a moment, he said in an uncertain tone: "This needs to be diagnosed by a specialized pharmacist or wizard. I personally think it may be because Jeanne is younger and has a shorter awakening time limit, and her magic power is not suitable for her. You have little influence.”
"You mean, the sequelae of witch disease are actually caused by mana?" Horn quickly grasped the logic in his words.
“You can say that.” Sissi nodded, “According to the school of magic, the distortion caused by witch disease to the human body is actually caused by the soul.
Mana oppresses the soul, and the soul Pressure on the brain, pressure on the body, layer by layer, will cause distortion.
Your magic power may be too weak, so you will not have this kind of distortion."
"Sissi. Sister, you keep talking about this magic power, what exactly is magic power?" Jeanne asked from the side.
