Fairy’s Box

Pleasant time always flies, and after several happy transactions, the Governor's Palace had to temporarily suspend the arms trade. Because the Federation has revised the cruise route, during the last cargo delivery process, the Ruby and the Aquatic Group were almost caught by the cruiser. Fortunately, the two of them remembered part of the route when the octopus Gobabul took them across the Mid-Atlantic, and they escaped with their wits and adventures, but there will be no such good thing next time.

With the smuggling trade between the Governor's Palace and the New World temporarily interrupted, the autumn harvest also ended in a haze of burning rice stalks, and several large villages and densely populated areas, including the newly built Dunlon, were full of smoke.

Since almost all the military factories in the province are concentrated here, the city of London is no longer the scene surrounded by greenery. Year round.

Local residents must wear umbrellas when they go out to prevent the dust in the smog from contaminating their bodies. Over time, the city of London has gained the nickname of the foggy city.

In the suburbs outside the city, it was the place where the garrison army lived. It was backed by the Celtic forest, and the east and west were narrow and barren steep slopes. It was a dangerous place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Since there are natural barriers on three sides, the southern plains leading directly to the city of London have become their training grounds.

The low-lying area on the west side of the training ground used to be a shade of green. There was no game in it, but there were quite a few mosquitoes. Later, because some soldiers complained that drinking water was inconvenient, the governor brought in the spring water fairy, Kaisha, and asked her to permanently change the local geological structure, turning the depression into a lake with sweet water.

This small lake originally had no name, but now there is - Silver Scale Lake.

It is estimated that a gentleman of the guardhouse who was idly walking around felt that the ripples on the lake surface were like silver scales. He took this name in a flash, and was recognized by his colleagues, and then gradually spread.

Unlike the new army, which was completely out of production and received strict training, the feudal fiefs of the Weisuo army were very strong, almost a variant of the ancient feudal knights. The characteristics of the feudal army is that the first and second generations of combat power are on the table, and the next generation is not as good as the first generation, and in the end, it will even rot into tofu scum.

This is almost the law of history. In the middle of the empire, it was also dragged down by corrupt feudal knights. There was even a military dilemma where the whole country could not make up 10,000 natural disaster knights.

This emperor has a great reputation in the history of the empire. Apart from Agaric the Great, he is the only emperor who is regarded as a great emperor by his subjects, and is recognized as the master of ZTE who has wiped out accumulated evils.

Emperor Yusius encountered the war in the Dark Sun God Realm as soon as he succeeded to the throne. Relying on the capital accumulated by the empire, he endured the Dark Sun invasion through hardships, but in the end he only managed to save an empire that was riddled with holes.

After this painful war, he saw clearly the deep and accumulated disadvantages of the feudal military system, so he made up his mind to reform.

In order to raise funds for the reform, the emperor defied public opinion and launched a cross-border expedition, which could be called a gamble, and plundered a large number of slaves and treasures from an outer domain called the Misty World.

He eased social conflicts with war dividends, continued the dynasty, and established the prestige of launching reforms.

Then, by consuming these slaves and treasures, and by means of redemption and persuasion, the feudal system that the empire had completely reduced to a tumor was gradually dismantled.

During this process, Emperor Jusius carried the small-scale harassment of the minions of the dark sun, and with a firm to cruel will, he built a new army synchronously through several parallel schemes-finally, the system of full-time knights was established. Template for a modernized military organization.

According to historical records at that time, in order to raise military expenses and fill the bottomless pit of military reform, Emperor Jusius not only let the queen weave cloth and the princess wash yarn (of course, these goods are not ordinary prices), but also pawned the valuable utensils in the palace. I almost ripped off the floor and sold it for money.

After the military reform, the empire was completely reborn, and it has been invincible ever since.

Only ten years later, the official statistics of natural disaster knights reached 30,000, which was the number when Emperor Agarik founded the country, and it was almost the peak of the empire's national strength in the early stage.

Twenty years later, the skyrocketing military power was out of control, reaching the 100,000 mark that could be called a dream figure at the time!

With one hundred thousand natural disasters in his hand, Emperor Jusius looked around and saw that there was no rival in Antrasus, and he could finally sit back and relax on a cross-border expedition, and let the dark sun that had suppressed him for half his life pay the price.

As a result of the war, the head of this mighty God of Power remained in the Five Army Governor's Mansion forever.

The reform of Emperor Yusius has almost become the template for the reform of the Antrazu countries. These countries, large and small, either reluctantly reformed or were eliminated by the countries that completed the reform, and each of them had a modern military. system.

In the process, the feudal military system that once laid the foundation of their rule was completely abandoned. Pompey thought this was wrong. He believed that the corruption of the feudal military system was actually an economic and ideological corruption.

Economically, the lower-level fiefs not only have to bear the increasingly large family expenses, but also face the land acquisition of the middle and high-level fiefs. Over time, the cost of training will decrease. The first three generations may still have the opportunity to revitalize, but in the future, because of the collapse of the economic foundation, it is almost inevitable that one generation is inferior to the next.

Ideologically, the lack of competitive factors in the hereditary inheritance system will inevitably lead to the neglect of the feudal knights as a whole. According to the primogeniture system at that time, this is almost an irreversible process.

If these two ills can be solved, then the feudal system can also be rejuvenated, because the modern military system is not perfect - the army that is completely out of production is too expensive.

The military system of the garrison is the improved military system after Pompey eliminated the ills. Through this new feudal military system, it fits the characteristics of Celtic land and sparsely populated, and provides a batch of high-quality soldiers that save money for the Governor's Palace.

At least from the current point of view, the morale and combat effectiveness of the Weisuo army are quite strong, and the local defense battle is even more fierce.

Yale also affirmed the superiority of the military system of the garrison, believing that it could be applied to some defensive military organizations of the empire and reduce the local financial burden.

He and Pompey agreed that as long as there is still a huge power gap between people, as long as one person can crush a group of people through training, then the feudal fief military system will never be outdated.

...

At dusk, after the troops of the garrison closed their exercises, the sound of swords hitting each other as usual came from the banks of the Silver Scale Lake. The sound was very harsh and dense at the same time, like dozens of swords colliding continuously.

A small light blue clear lake, waves of silver scale-like ripples swayed on the lake surface, as if the lake surface had become a delicate silk and satin, constantly shaking.

In fact, the wind was turbulent. On the green shade by the lake, two silhouettes were intertwined, and the two swords swayed with various colors of light and kept fighting in the air. Every time the blades intersect, several sparks will bloom, and the blasting wind pressure spreads out, galloping across the lake surface, forming a spectacle of tremors on the water surface.

boom--!

After the last mass of sparks escaped from the space, Karahaha laughed and swung his sword back in a circle, like a azure lightning twisting and stabbing, instantly knocking the opposite sword away, and taking advantage of the situation to put the sword's edge on a side. On the white and slender neck.

"Don't think that I usually like to fight with bare hands, so I underestimate my swordsmanship. In the entire Governor's Mansion, it is estimated that the only people who have better swordsmanship than me are the bosses." patted each other on the shoulder.

"Okay, Uncle Carla, you won." Nancy let go of her sword, raised her hands high, and surrendered with a face of unwillingness.

"Don't call me uncle! I'm two years older than you!"

Carla choked on it, and withdrew her sword furiously. At the same time, she took out the war pattern detector and pressed the button on the girl who just came back in front of her:

"Let me see your training results for the past six months."

In the light screen, strips of light swept across Nancy's figure, the numbers on her forehead kept bouncing, and finally stopped at the value of three hundred and six.

"It's okay, it's about the same as Goedelolo, and it should be no problem to cope with this mission." Kara nodded, then took off the detector and put it in a special glasses case.

"Then uncle, you have to protect me tonight." She raised the corner of her mouth playfully and winked at the other party.

"Don't call me uncle! Otherwise, you will be taken away tonight!"

The muscles on Carla's face were shaking, and even her whiskers were shaking slightly, staring at Nancy angrily, so that she could see the anger in her eyes.

The corners of the girl's mouth were slightly raised, her bright eyes under her long eyelashes stared at those eyes, and she said sincerely, "Don't stare at uncle, you have enough wrinkles on your face, and if you stare again, you will turn into a forty-year-old face. La."

"..."

one-one-one-one-one-one

At about ten o'clock in the evening, Nancy and Carla left the station as planned, and quickly rushed into the quiet city of London at night, and began to implement the fishing plan.

The girl Yaoyao made a gesture of no problem to her companion, and walked out of a small alley by herself. The pale moonlight shone on the quiet street, and there was no one near or far, only the sound of her soft footsteps echoed on the street, and a few barks could be heard occasionally.

The night in late autumn was very cold, and the cold wind blew through the lonely street, with a savage smell. A few old newspapers mixed with dead leaves brushed the ground, wiped from the ankle of Nancy wearing moccasins, and disappeared in the distance. in the darkness.

The girl obviously enjoys the silence of this late autumn night, so she chooses some relatively secluded lanes and alleys along the way. She is a natural disaster knight, and naturally she is not afraid of the dark like ordinary girls, so she is really like shopping. Wandering the streets.

As time passed by, Nancy checked the time when she passed by a watch shop, and found that it was two o'clock in the morning, and there was only one hour left before the end of work at three o'clock, so she relaxed even more.

Such a small probability event will not appear on the first night - the girl thought out of nowhere.

After walking around in place for a few laps, Nancy felt a little hungry, so she inspected the restaurants that were still open along the way, and she saw a small restaurant with lights in the distance.

"Great, buy two bread pads for your stomach."

The girl trotted all the way, seeing the sign of the restaurant getting closer and closer, as long as she crossed a road to reach her destination, suddenly her body froze, and she could vaguely hear the sound of muffled thunder coming from the sky.

At two o'clock in the morning, the sky was of course very dark. The dark clouds that suddenly converged covered the sky like thick ink, like a thick barrier, and the faint sound of thunder began to approach from the distant horizon.

It is already late autumn at this moment, and even in Celtic, where it rains frequently, there is rarely heavy rain. Such thunderstorms are very rare at this time.

Boom-!

Suddenly, a thunderstorm exploded, the wind and clouds moved, and a blue-white electric light suddenly streaked across the sky, connecting the sky and the ground, and the eyes were pale.

The next moment, the big raindrops came with wind and rain. Almost in the blink of an eye, the whole world was plunged into a steam of steam, and when the dense drops of water poured down the street like raindrops, Nancy came back to her senses and escaped under an eaves like lightning. .

something! Something is coming!

She quickly looked up at the black sky, as if trying to find something in the thick ink.

Then after a while, I saw a burst of electric light shaking in the dark cloud, and there seemed to be a beam of light that shot down directly down the thunder and fell towards my position.

The night was dark, and a bright light suddenly shone straight on. She instinctively raised her hand to cover her eyes and covered it. This was originally a very common thing, but the moment she covered her face, Nancy's heart shrank suddenly, the natural disaster knight's instinct warned, a chill quickly filled her whole body, making her whole body hit A cold war.

In the thunder light, a blurry figure descended from the sky, standing on the street lamp of the restaurant opposite, looking down at her from a condescending height.

"Woman, you are wearing the brand of a fairy, but you are swaying on the street at this time. It seems that you are provoking us." A vague and harsh voice penetrated the heavy rain curtain and got into Nancy's ear. middle.

"..."

The girl clenched her fists suddenly, her eyes widened, her chest rose and fell rapidly, her hands were clenched into fists, and the muscles all over her body were almost stretched into a line, because of the overreaction, even the bones and joints were in the same Time made a swift and delicate sound.

"Since you are so interested, come with me."

"Danger!"

A thought suddenly flashed in her mind, and Nancy turned to the side. Sure enough, at the same time, there was a muffled bang, and a few tenths later, a bolt of lightning hit the place where she had just stood, piercing through. On the surface, a large hole was blown up.

"Those criminals actually found me... I... why am I so unlucky." In a blink of an eye, the girl seemed to understand what was going on.

Now, at this point in time, there is no one except those criminals who specialize in collecting Doctor Fairy!
