Chapter 729 Plan, Courage, Confrontation
"Benevolent Father God, this errand should actually be handled by our Chief Reinhard Bamilyan. He is the best person to deceive and deceive others." Seeing the golden morning light from The east gushed out, and the majestic and pure white figure of the Holy Mountain appeared on the edge of the field of vision. The head of the Arthur Kingdom Mission and the important minister of the Round Table Council, Marquis Geralds Amberpasia, pretended to be relaxed and complained, and then put down the bronze in his hand to peep Mirror, walked away from the small porthole of the airship, and came to his companion. "And don't you think that the nickname of the Unsullied is very suitable for the teachings of the Temple of Radiance?"
"Let an intelligence chief with a reputation for sophistry spread throughout the kingdoms as the plenipotentiary representative of the Kingdom of Arthur to go to the Shining Temple?" Master Sugard, who was wearing a scholar's red robe, shook his head in disapproval. The neck was made of precious metals and gemstones. Cheng's necklace made a slight rubbing sound, "Lord Marquis Jaros, this is not a proposal that a smart person can make. It will completely expose our purpose of action, and it may cause other unpredictable troubles."
The Marquis of Geralds nodded silently. Regarding the real mission of the Kingdom of Arthur's mission this time, he had already obtained a definite answer from the regent King Li Weiston.In fact, even without the short conversation before departure, this experienced and important minister of the kingdom is fully aware of the heavy mission on his shoulders.
Attract attention, delay time.
After the Bamilian Governor unexpectedly proposed the possibility of recovering the capital of Fermeyer, the nobles of the royal capital, headed by Marquis Jerome, held a serious consideration—or more bluntly—resolutely opposed opinions. .Since the position of the court chief was completely inclined to the young regent, his remarks were also interpreted by many people as a temptation proposed by Levi Ston.
It is by no means an easy task to change the minds of the Guardians of the Territory, who control most of Arthur's court. After leaving the room where the meeting was held, the nobles of the royal capital gathered together to discuss how to reverse this unfavorable situation. way.The Marquis of Geralds denied from the very beginning that he pinned his hopes on the resolution of the round table council, not only because of the lofty prestige of Levi Stern himself and the allies and subordinates who accounted for half of the council seats, but Frye alone The support of Queen Hill was enough to allow the resolution to be passed smoothly, even if the royal nobles attending the meeting unanimously opposed it.
It took a full 15 minutes to get from the room on the second floor to the hall where the dinner was held, which was the longest time the nobles of the royal capital could get without being suspected of deliberately delaying.They proposed no fewer than ten solutions, but in the end they were all rejected because the probability of success was too low, so that when they entered the dinner hall, everyone's face was clouded with gloom.
However, all of this disappeared shortly after dinner. At Li Wei's suggestion, everyone visited the secret alchemy workshop located under a small hill near Green Castle, and heard a detailed introduction from the director of the workshop, Master Youyue.
After leaving the secret underground workshop, except for Li Wei and a few people who already knew about it, everyone seemed in a trance and their movements were stiff, as if they were still immersed in a dream that was hard to wake up from.That night, the number of insomniacs occupied almost half of the seats in the round table meeting. Many nobles who were born in the capital couldn't help crying, but at the same time, the corners of their mouths showed an uncontrollable arc of excitement.
It turned out that without knowing it, Beijing County already possessed a powerful strength enough to regain the capital of Fermeyer, and even regain all the occupied territories.As long as they recalled the neatly arranged heavy alchemy weapons in the warehouse of the alchemy studio, and the power test screen projected on the crystal ball, they would have sympathy for the demons who were about to taste these tastes from the bottom of their hearts.
However, having sufficient power is only one aspect of success. To turn it into reality requires a prerequisite, that is, there must be no interference from any external forces or major accidents.
There is no doubt that the Temple of Glory is an external force that must never appear. If this unfathomable weight appears on the balance of the battlefield, then victory will no longer be a smile that God of War Barud has already shown, but may become a never-ending victory. Clouds that touch the sky.The second is the Reaper Knights, whose strength and attitude are unclear. The fire wizard Juno Ameriste has always been worried about the attack by the legendary assassin, and the assassin was soon proved to be related to the Shadow Assassin created by the Abyss Demon. It doesn't matter, on the contrary, it is more like the legendary dark elves who have disappeared from the world.
As for the desert country Abraham, although it has a certain degree of strength, it does not have decisive high-end power, so the damage it can directly cause is extremely limited-but no one dares to categorically deny that the attitude of this country will not be the last one to crush the camel. a straw.
For all the rich and noble families in the royal capital, this is something that cannot be tolerated.Only the benevolent Father God knows how much they want to leave this cold and barren backcountry and return to the luxurious and exquisite mansion of King Fermeyer.Receptions, banquets, wild dances, magnificent halls, the melodious sounds of bards playing and singing, all kinds of delicacies and fruits that seem to melt the tongue... It makes people feel sour when they think about it, as if it happened 1000 years ago past.
With the dawn of the next day, the slogan "Go back to the capital and recover the whole kingdom" spread like a whirlwind to every corner of Northern Border County.Different from previous calls by Li Wei, the most intense response this time was not from the knights or common people of the northern territories. For the nobles, it seems a bit overshadowed.
Every ancient family showed their hidden trump cards, powerful family magic weapons, powerful family guardian knights, magic potion formulas and ancient magic scrolls from thousands of years ago... Due to the haste of the incident, these forces He failed to save the fate of the king's capital, Philmeyer, from being captured, but he shined brilliantly when he was preparing to take back the king's capital. Some of the things even the well-informed Mr. Dish couldn't help showing his face after seeing it. happy look.
The family of the Marquis of Geralds was naturally not far behind, and contributed three guardian knights with the strength of a sword-bearing lord and a batch of treasured magic weapons. It can be said that they have tried their best to regain the king's capital.But in comparison, the responsibilities he shoulders now are far more important than any magical weapons or guardian knights. If His Majesty Pope Nicholas on the Holy Mountain can be delayed for about a week, it can be ensured that the war to retake the capital will not Interferenced by the position of the Temple of Glory!
As for the outcome of the war itself, that is a matter of concern only to His Excellency King Regent Lee Weiston. The Marquis of Geralds has completely forgotten about it since the moment he stepped on the gangway of the alchemy flying ship.
The floor under his feet felt the unique bumpy feeling when he landed. Marquis Jaros woke up from his own thoughts, sat down firmly, and tidied his hair and collar, which were not messy at all, before asking softly: , "Our battlefield is there, Master Sugard, are you ready?"
"Of course, although there is no sound of gunpowder and sword clashes, this battle will also be engraved in the history of the Kingdom of Arthur." Master Sugard's answer seemed calm and powerful, full of confidence.
Different from the situation when the Rimang arrived at Greencastle, the temporary capital of the Kingdom of Arthur in the Northern Territory, the Temple of Glory reacted rather hastily and chaotically to the formation of four alchemy airships on which the Kingdom of Arthur's mission was aboard.
When the flying ship formation began to descend, warning bells rang through the sky, and a large number of heavily armed apostolic knights and priests were like ants that exploded the camp.They burst out from the seven gates of the Shining Temple at the foot of the holy mountain, but only a few of them held heavy crossbows with a long range, and most of them could only stare at the sky in a daze.
The airship Shenguo, which is larger than the Rimang, took off urgently from the airship port. On the hull of more than 170 meters in length, dozens of crew members were preparing for battle like a group of busy ants. The three large two-barreled alchemy ballistas have already removed the covering tarpaulins, and the spearheads of the ballista engraved with ancient magic patterns are shining dangerously in the sun, ready to launch a devastating attack on the flying ship of the Arthur Kingdom envoy at any time. hit.
"Merkativo, these guys are still using old equipment that has been eliminated hundreds of years ago!" A voice muttered and cursed from the brass speaker of the communication, "Look, then Can it be regarded as an alchemy ballista? There is no aiming equipment, is it all based on the experience of the shooter? And the material of the hull, the magic power conduction performance of diamond sandalwood is not much better than that of silver alloy, and the price is almost lower than that of silver alloy. worth its weight in gold..."
"It sounds like Master Youyue is not in a good mood?" The old red-robed scholar Master Sujiade twirled his white beard and said.
"You're wrong, he's in a good mood." Marquis Jeros twitched his lips, showing a smirk with aristocratic style, "The flying ships we're on are Master Youyue and Master Frederick It was jointly researched and manufactured, obviously Master You Yue is trying to belittle the masterpieces of those alchemists hundreds of years ago."
"...This thing should be placed in the exhibition hall for future generations to visit, instead of reluctantly launching into the air to fight!" Master Youyue concluded in an affirmative tone, "Captain Gavin, activate the storm thunder gun for everyone on that ship!" Come on, let's see how effective its magic shield can be?"
The faces of Marquis Jellos and Master Sugard suddenly turned pale, "Stop! Absolutely don't fire!" The two shouted at the brass horn in unison.
"Don't listen to that lunatic alchemist, it will kill us all!"
"The relationship between us and the Temple of Radiance is already in a very dangerous situation, any friction may lead to a public break!"
Fortunately, the captain of the alchemy flight ship that is the flagship of the mission, the Blade, is the "Silent Gavin" who is known for his steady personality. As soon as the master's words fell, the storm thunder gun on the bow had already aimed at the Shenguo and fired violently.
As for the power of the storm thunder gun, which is equivalent to the full blow of the earl with a sword, whether it can break through the magic shield that has not been fully activated on the Kingdom of God, and what kind of disastrous consequences this attack will bring? For example, it will not really be considered in the mind at all.
I'm afraid this is also the reason why half of the Griffon Knights have received alchemy flying ships as air support, but this knight of the Regent King Li Weiston has not been able to serve as the captain of any alchemy flying ships. .
"Master Youyue, forgive me for not following your order." Captain Gavin took several seconds before replying, "But according to the operational regulations of the alchemy airship, the opponent is already ready to fight, and we must also carry out the battle." Corresponding preparations... flags are issued, the entire fleet is on first-level alert; the magic furnace is activated, the wartime power system is connected, the storm thunder gun is charged, the observation tower, pay attention to the distance of the opponent's flying ship!"
"The Observation Tower understands, understands, big captain!" came the piercing voice unique to small elves from above his head, "The current distance is 2000 meters!"
"Master Youyue, what is the effective range of the opponent's ballista?" Captain Gavin's voice came again.
"Hmph, for such an antique that has been in disrepair for a long time, it would be nice to be able to shoot 1000 meters!" Master Youyue replied with disdain, but made the entire communication system silent for a full minute.
Not to mention a battle-tested knight like Captain Gavin or a knowledgeable scholar like Master Sugard, even Marquis Geralds, who knew little about war methods, knew exactly what the range of 1000 meters represented.
Whether it is the magic cast by a magician or the sharp arrows shot by an archer, the effective range is usually only about 300 meters. Even the large alchemy siege weapons made by the alchemy workshop in Beijing County, except for the small monster catapult , and it is rare to achieve such a terrifying range, and the catapult is too large to be installed on small and medium-sized alchemy flying ships.
The storm thunder gun is a special physical attack. Although the effective range can barely reach more than 1000 meters, its power will be greatly attenuated at that distance. It is not optimistic whether it can break through the magic shield of the large alchemy flying ship of the Kingdom of God.
In other words, although Master Youyue dismissed the opponent as almost worthless, the four flying ships of the Kingdom of Arthur's mission may not be able to pose too much threat to the Kingdom of God, which is like a castle in the sky.
"The distance is [-]!" The little elf on the observation deck at the bow reported in a sharp voice again.
"Continue to maintain the course, and the speed remains unchanged." Captain Gavin's voice came from the brass horn, and the innate calmness subtly soothed the anxiety in the hearts of the crew.Under the guidance of the Blade, the four flying ships formed a diamond-shaped array and slowly flew towards the Kingdom of God.
"The distance is one thousand and five!"
Unable to restrain the uneasiness in his heart, Marquis Jellos quickly approached the porthole, and raised the bronze sight glass to look out.The majestic figure of the Divine Kingdom has an indescribable majesty. After being magnified more than ten times through the magic looking glass, even the face of the archer manipulating the alchemy ballista at the bow can be clearly seen.
"Father God bless...they are adjusting the shooting angle!" Marquis Geralds muttered to himself, and then he suddenly thought of an important question, and immediately shouted into the brass horn, "Captain Gavin, please play the semaphore immediately , explain our intention to the Guangyao Temple side!"
"The semaphore was used to communicate just now, and the other party didn't respond." Captain Gavin's answer was so flat that it took several seconds for Marquis Jellos to realize what he had heard, and his face suddenly changed. Pale as rancid curdled milk, the looking glass slipped from its slack grasp without even grabbing it.
Master Sugard reached out his hand in time and saved the fate of the bronze sight glass from being smashed on the ground. The old scholar looked quite calm, and while carefully observing the flying closer and closer Shen Guo through the sight glass, he said in a deep voice: "Please don't worry, Lord Marquis, Guangyao Temple should not make any truly hostile actions. If so, their concessions some time ago would have been wasted. If they made such a big concession, it was only for the sake of Eliminate those of us, I'm afraid we are not that important."
There was quite a sarcasm in these words of comfort, which caused a trace of anger to flash across Marquis Jerome's face, but he soon calmed down. "You...you are right." The Marquis Jerome took two steps back, sat on his chair, and involuntarily grasped the armrests tightly with both hands. His tone seemed not to explain the problem, but to convince himself, "We are For the envoys sent by the Kingdom of Arthur, the Temple of Glory needs to take into account their reputation among the human kingdoms, and they will not do anything to us."
"A distance of one thousand!" The scream of the little elf was harsher than the previous two times. The 1000 meters were within the effective range of the alchemy ballistas on the Shen Guo, and Marquis Jerome held the back of the armrest of the seat. Turned pale due to excessive force, Master Sugard's body also became stiff, his eyes unblinkingly looked at the Shenguo, which had almost occupied the entire porthole view.
"Sign out the semaphore again—we are here for peace!" Gavin's voice from the brass speaker sounded a little stiff, but neither Master Sugard nor Marquis Jellosh could be sure whether it was because they were too nervous to listen. wrong. "The course remains the same, the magic furnace is running at full speed, and the protection power of the magic shield is turned on to the maximum!"
"The distance is five hundred!" The scream of the little elf came through the wind.
The four airships of the Kingdom of Arthur mission passed at a distance of less than 200 meters from the Shenguo, and then slowly descended towards the square in front of the Shining Temple.From the beginning to the end, all the ballistas on the Shenguo were aimed at the flagship Blade, and the Blade and the other three alchemy flying ships were also ready for battle.Fortunately, the commanders on both sides were quite calm, and a bloody conflict that was likely to lead to disastrous consequences was avoided in a tense and suffocating atmosphere.
After passing by the Divine Kingdom, it took another half a minute before the Marquis of Geros let out a long breath, and found that his sweat had already wet the original straight dress, which made him quite embarrassed, but when he When he turned his head to look at Master Sujiad, he found that the forehead of this master scholar was covered with beads of sweat.
