The Lion King of Middenland, Warhammer

When the sun in Kislev fell below the horizon for a while, countless bonfires burned on the grassland as far as the eye could see, like the stars in the night sky.Looking from a distance in the sky, you can see several small white sails in the orange-red flames, as well as those black spots that shuttle, like a neat and hasty colony of ants.The white sails are the tents of the army, and the black dots are the figures of the crowd and horses. The mighty army has already camped, and this may be the last camp before the decisive battle.

"It's kind of funny how everything looks so small from the air!"

Hyde patted the rattan guardrail beside him casually, and sighed with a curious voice.In fact, he is not on the ground now, but standing on the deck of a hot airship, leaning on the railing and looking at the bonfire and the military camp below him.Beside him stood Baskar, the dwarf blacksmith, proud in his round red face.

"This is the masterpiece of our master dwarf engineer. It can fly to a height of 1000 meters. It is very useful whether it is for alert, investigation, or decisive battle! According to the records of the heroic history on parchment, more than 300 years ago, it is said that The great butcher-inventor, Master Malakai, wiped out entire Chaos hordes with a single airship, turning thousands of filthy Chaos outlaws into barbecues in an instant..."

After seeing Hyde's surprise, Pascal proudly stroked his short beard, and began to talk at length about how great this airship is, what kind of enemies it faces, and what kind of glorious history it has.As if the big white thing painted with the imperial double-headed eagle was his own masterpiece.He was cut short, however, when a one-armed dwarf with a long beard raised his hook.

"Oh! My dear Uncle Fatak, how could you hit a prince on the head!"

"First of all, it's because I don't like dwarves who can only talk about it, and I've seen five times more stones than you. Finally, remember to call me the captain, because everyone on the airship calls me that."

With a loud knock, Pascal ran away with his head in his arms.And the one-armed dwarf wearing a gold-rimmed tricorne hat easily adjusted his two-foot-long beard with an iron hook, and shrugged his shoulders with golden tassel epaulettes with a smile.

"My Lord Fatak, in fact, I really want to hear the historical story of His Royal Highness Baska, you don't have to do this, do you?" [

Hyde laughed too, but still had to plead for Pascal.In fact, his current hot-air airship trip was still proposed by Pascal. The short-bearded young dwarf discovered by chance that the captain of an imperial airship was an acquaintance in his village, and then the following things happened naturally. up.Under Baska's kind suggestion, Hyde, Fleur, and Jessica boarded the airship that was performing security missions outside the camp, and became some very special guests.

"Your Highness, first of all, I hit Baska on the head to prevent him from misleading your ears with nonsense, because the actual combat capability of my airship is very limited. Secondly, there is no duke here. , only the old Fatak with the iron hook --- or Captain Redbeard. As for the stories about dukes, princes, and princesses, they are all made up by Baska, who likes to think wildly. He and I are from the same village dwarf whose dead father was my best friend."

The red-bearded dwarf captain respectfully took off his hat with his sheepskin gloved hand, saluted Hyde, and then answered the young god-favored one.There was a hint of emotion in his calm voice, and a faint light flickered in his eyes.

"Ah! Why is our dwarf captain so humble! Jessica remembers that the brave dwarf warriors are the proudest?"

When the dwarf captain paused for a cigarette, Jessica jumped up like a jolly little wolf, leaned down, stared at his blindfolded face, and asked a slightly malicious question.Although it was cold in the air, she was still wearing such little clothes, revealing a slender waist with muscular body, her plump chest and the curved mithril breastplate were jumping happily, like two round balls.

"The pride of the dwarves is pride based on the facts. They are proud of the true history carved by their ancestors with their hands. The dwarves do not want to be proud of telling lies, because telling lies and exaggerating the facts will only bring tragedy to themselves. The dwarves It is a person who says what he says, and there is no point in bragging and exaggerating on the battlefield. This is a moored boat for security purposes, it can only accommodate ten people, and it flies to a height of 200 meters. Her role is to provide eyes for the army , that's all."

Captain Fatak exhaled a round smoke ring from his terracotta pipe, looked up to watch it dissipate in the air, and spread his heavy palms.At this moment, Hyde suddenly felt a kind of sadness, like the cold wind in the air was passing through his young heart.

"Captain Fatak, I sincerely apologize to Miss Jessica for taking the liberty, and I hope you don't mind."

Hyde reacted quickly. He took off his hat and saluted the one-armed dwarf, hoping to make up for Jessica's abruptness.

"It's nothing, my honorable highness, you are so kind."

Fatak answered Hyde with the same courtesy, but there was a hint of excitement in his voice, probably because of Hyde's sincerity.

"Jessica is so sad! Jessica was wrong! Jessica apologizes to the captain! Woohoo!"

The baby-faced girl with wolf ears immediately lowered her head, and her furry ears also drooped down, like a bullied puppy.The tenth champion of Middenland became like a coquettish child in front of Hyde, always appearing mischievous and admitting mistakes, a bit like a changed version of her cousin Catherine.But no matter what, she always followed Hyde closely, never letting her be more than five meters away from him.In a sense, Hyde understands why, because he understands the power behind Jessica's beautiful baby face.

"The steam engine of the hot gas airship is very small. Without the protection of the magic machine soul, it is difficult to control its precise direction, especially in the strong winds of the plain. Its airbag is also very fragile, and it is difficult to control it in front of the harpies." Protection, not to mention Chaos Horn, Wyverns and Pterodactyls. They break easily when dropped, accurate detonations are rare, and in large scale battles, Magic Winds are chaotic, and they're pretty much aimless So, expecting them to destroy enemy armies like legends is just an epic fantasy, but fantasy will not become reality."

The red-bearded captain had a long voice, and he calmly explained the weakness of the launch boat.The sturdy, one-armed dwarf wore a heavy blue woolen coat full of holes and torn patches, and the arms and arms were embroidered with arms and airships, the glittering gold thread fading.Many medals and emblems were neatly inlaid on the chest of the coat, some were still new, while others were very old, exuding an ancient atmosphere.At his waist was a mixture of a pistol and a sword, the short blade of which was glistening with runes.
