Starting From the Dragon Clan To Penetrate the World

Vol 2 Chapter 842: : The smell of gunpowder

Remember [New] for a second,! "Don't I need to sign a contract? I don't have so many inheritance crystallization now."

Leng Yue wondered.

"No, just do me a little favor later."

Lu Chen smiled and handed Leng Yue a contract that had been drawn up earlier.

Leng Yue glanced at the result, thoughtfully, "Yes."

She put away the strange origin of the black goat cub, bowed to Lu Chen and retired.

Around the tent where Lu Chen was resting, there were 20 or 30 explorers who wanted to approach without a trace, but they were all greeted by the excited Kaka secretly.

…………

East of the Sistine Empire, east of the Red River.

This place was originally an endless wilderness, and there were no people within a radius of 2,000 miles. However, when I looked at the tower on the border of the Sistine Empire recently, I could vaguely see a dark building in the distance.

Those buildings seem to be growing, becoming taller and denser every day, and information is constantly being sent back to the capital, making the big figures in the capital realize the seriousness of the problem. .

The country of steam and machinery really wants to go to war. They have already started to build bases on the front lines, and the railways are constantly being repaired, advancing ten miles every day.

Inside the gorgeous palace, the current monarch of the Sistine Empire, Charlie Sistine, is sitting on the throne and frowning.

In just half a month, he seems to have aged a lot, and facing internal and external troubles, even if he is a capable monarch, he is also a little anxious.

The day before yesterday, he secretly met Ji Wujiu, director of the Inquisition of Morning Embrace Church, and learned surprising news.

That lazy Peter really wasn't lazy this time, but disappeared, and his life and death are currently unknown.

This is a major event that shakes the country. Peter doesn't show up in the capital for a day or two, and he can use various reasons to prevaricate, but after a long time, anyone will notice that something is wrong.

Peter's personality is not to be mentioned, but he is also the Pope no matter what, and he usually goes to church on time every day to make a card and show his face, and sometimes he will show off in front of the masses to consolidate the faith of the people of the empire.

Now that he is here, the world evaporates. Whether this news is learned by the Church of the Evernight, or by the country of steam and machinery, it is the worst case.

Even Charlie wondered whether the country of steam and machinery decided to go to war after learning the news of Peter's disappearance.

Now that the northern border of the Sistine Empire is resisting the strange torrent of the Sea of ​​Nothingness, most of the Night's Watch's fighting power has been scattered. If they only rely on the flesh and blood of the emperor, can they really go to war with that country?

"Baron, what do you think?"

Charlie asked the people in the audience, and the person who was shouted was a burly man with a height of over two meters, with dark skin, but not pure black, obviously a mixed race.

Baron was extremely burly, wearing heavy armor, and also carried a pair of heavy hammers on the main hall, which made the floor of the palace a little unbearable when he walked.

He gave Charlie a standard knightly salute and replied, "Your Majesty, we can't go to war yet, at least we won't be able to fight until the weird storm in the north has passed."

Balon Kabas is the commander-in-chief of the Sistine Empire, the hereditary duke of the empire, and one of the knights of dawn, titled Hammer of the Empire.

He is both a clergyman and an official high-ranking official of the empire. He rarely shows up inside the church, and mainly trains troops on the frontier.

"How is our army's combat effectiveness?"

Charlie asked, of course the Sistine Empire has a standing army, but it has cut too many troops over the years, and now the total number is less than 300,000.

"With all due respect, Your Majesty, you should understand that the existence of the standing army is only used to suppress ordinary unrest within the empire. We can't really expect children to fight."

Baron's remarks made Charlie and the imperial officials present frown. Those who can be in today's discussion hall are all sensible people, but it is still uncomfortable to hear Baron say this.

"I understand, let's continue to disarm next year, let the children disarm and return to the fields, and the affairs in the empire will be handled by the law enforcement officers."

Charlie rubbed his eyebrows wearily. The comfort of the Sistine Empire for many years has made people forget about war. In fact, the existence of armaments is indeed unnecessary.

In this era, the rise of human superhumans has formed a systematic chain, and a top superhuman can completely kill countless mortal army.

That's why the Sistine Empire has continued to cut its troops over the years, because it is really unnecessary, and the army can't handle the disaster in the dark night.

"How is the combat power of the country of steam and machinery now, Baron, you have seen it on the front line, and tell me what you think."

Charlie continued to ask.

Balon's face was expressionless, "Your Majesty wants to hear the truth or a lie?"

He also looked at other officials when he spoke, and it was obvious that this sentence was not just for the king alone.

"Stop doing this, this is a serious matter, and of course I have to listen to the truth."

Charlie felt bad.

"The fact is that we have absolutely no strength to fight, especially when we lose that person in charge. Once the war begins, the kingdom of steam and machinery will be able to kill the capital in less than two months."

Baron said bluntly, causing everyone present to change color.

"How is that possible! How can those heretics who have betrayed their beliefs be so powerful, Mr. Baron, please don't alarmist!"

The financial officer of the empire scolded angrily, believing that the Sistine Empire had always been the orthodox in this world, the country of steam and machinery had only been independent for only one hundred and fifty years, a group of unbelieving heretics, how could they be able to compete with their great country.

Balon looked at the Imperial Treasurer, "It's the group of unbelieving heretics that you said, and now they have created things that you can't imagine. My father mentioned it a long time ago, we should learn the advanced technology of the country of steam and machinery, then It's not sorcery, but an excellent technology that can improve people's livelihood."

He paused. "Over there, they call it science."

"Isn't it just a sorcery that can make scrap iron move by itself, can those things still rival our battle-hardened night watchman!?"

The one who spoke was a duke. His ancestors had a god-level night watchman. Now he is also an extraordinary person, worthy of the special level. He is currently the governor of a province in the empire.

"Duke Brightman, I think you are too blind to the power of supernatural beings. First of all, there are not so many night watchmen in our Sistine Empire, because this is a profession that is very demanding on talent, and secondly, according to me Observation, if you want to play a role on the battlefield, you must at least be a dangerous night watchman."

Balon looked at the duke and explained: "And the night watchmen are not trained militarily, they may be good at dealing with strange disasters, but they are not good at large-scale wars, and most of the night watchmen's ability It is also for single units, and the recovery speed is also slow. Only the night watchmen above the high-risk level can play a major role on the battlefield, and how many are there in the empire?"

Duke Brightman frowned, "I heard that many people in the land of steam and machinery are mortals. They don't have supernatural beings. Shouldn't our night watchman go to the battlefield to be a complete massacre?"

"Maybe I'm being blunt, but I still have to say, Duke Brightman, you're so wrong, if you go to the front with me to see it, you should know that once the war starts, only us will be slaughtered. "

Baron said lightly, "Their technology and industrial development have reached a level that we can't understand. At the same time, they have not completely given up their extraordinary power. It is the ultimate beast created by the technology industry and weirdness, and the final killer of the battlefield."

He took out a huge picture scroll and showed it to everyone in the hall. On the picture, there were many tall workshops in the fields. Comparing with flowers and trees, those workshops were probably 100 meters high.

What is daunting is that in the whole painting, those houses do not look conspicuous at all, because there are several standing figures standing beside them.

It is the Tianfeng built by the gray-black steel skeleton. The human-shaped steel giant stands there, spewing out overwhelming white steam from the joints. The person who painted this picture is obviously a master. The picture scroll is also conveyed to the public.

"As you can see, this is the monster created by the country of steam and machinery, and according to the information I have received, such a giant steel beast has already begun mass production in the country of steam and machinery."

Baron's voice fell, and the hall fell into silence, and everyone's expressions could be seen with a hint of shock and confusion.

They couldn't imagine how, with human craftsmanship, how could steel be made into such a huge monster.

The Sistine Empire also refines steel, but it is only used for some house construction and small objects used by nobles, most of which are made by craftsmen through meditative polishing.

But the steel giant on the screen is just a bone, fifty or sixty meters long. How did they complete the casting?

"Baron, is this thing strong? It looks bulky."

With a solemn expression, Charlie asked the legion commander he trusted.

"These giants on the frontline haven't moved, but I sensed that the core of the strange origin is at least super. In the test of the giant **** soldier IV, after my analysis, I conservatively estimate that there are probably no more than twenty super night watchmen in the empire who can defeat this kind of giant **** soldier one-on-one."

Balon said in a heavy voice, "And what's worse, the damage that this giant soldier can cause on the battlefield is far more than the Night's Watch. They are born demon gods developed for the battlefield, and the heavy firepower they carry can easily swept away. All cities, and because they are powered by dual core energy, as long as the energy reserves of the land of steam and machinery can keep up, the Titans IV will almost never stop."

There was a burst of breathless voices on the scene, and it was indeed that Baron's description was too terrifying.

A combat machine, a man-made thing, can actually match the super elite of the empire?

What's more outrageous is that it can still produce energy! ?

If Balon didn't lie, then the Sistine Empire did not have the strength to fight, and would be directly crushed on the frontal battlefield!

"Do these things require human manipulation?"

The Imperial Treasurer asked the point.

"The only good news is that these machines still need to be controlled by humans. Those pilots are not necessarily extraordinary. Our night watchman may be able to bypass the steel shell and use a special method to spiritually obliterate the pilot inside. "

Baron explained, "But I think we should prepare for the worst. The country of steam and machinery should not leave such a fatal loophole. If there is, they will not be able to hunt such a large number of super weird sources, let alone. Dare to fight with us."

Duke Brightman thought for a moment, "But this is still a breakthrough point worth trying, isn't it? The shortcut to defeat this heretical creation should still start with people."

Baron nodded, "That's true, but we don't know if it's hard to choose the pilots who operate the giant soldiers. If you don't destroy the giant soldiers, but just kill the pilots inside, the country of steam and machinery can still send new ones. Pilots take control, and I believe their pilots are much cheaper than our Night's Watch."

Charlie listened to Patton's words, and his expression was not very good. The imperial marshal was always very straightforward, but he was also very good at finding the key points of the problem. From an objective point of view, they were indeed not the opponents of the Sistine Empire.

Originally, he thought it was the incident in Haibei that dragged down the empire and Peter's disappearance, but now it seems that even if the Morning Embrace Church has no losses, it will be a difficult battle to be able to use all its combat power.

Peter is very strong, and Mr. Ji is also very strong, but their strength will be exhausted, and no one knows whether the country of steam and machinery has a bigger killer aimed at their top powerhouses.

"Your Majesty, please make a decision."

Baron saluted, he can only make objective analysis, but the final decision must be the king.

Now that Peter is not here, and Mr. Ji Wu Jiu is not good at these things, King Charles must make judgments on important matters of the state.

King Charles is a mortal person~www.readwn.com~ But a mortal person does not mean that his mind cannot compare to an extraordinary person, and the successive monarchs of the Sistine Empire are all mortals, this is because of a ancestral teaching.

King Charles pondered for a moment, "Send someone to investigate the Sistine Empire. I want to know what they want."

Charlie's heart is gloomy. If the country of steam and machinery just wants resources, territory, and population, he can make concessions. As a family that has ruled the empire for 1300 years, the Sistine family knows far more than others. The secret of power is actually not as strong as outsiders think.

The land that God Forsaken can survive on is so large, and the population of the two empires is not large, in a state of sparsely populated, and Charlie does not think that the land of steam and machinery wants to slaughter the people, even if he cedes it. If the territory is removed, the lives of those people will not be worse.

And if what Balon said was true, perhaps those people who were brought into the land of steam and machinery would have a better life.

Charlie thinks that the other party can mention anything if they have conditions, but it must not be that.

"According to your will, I will send two special class to sneak over there."

Baron saluted, and had no objection to Charlie's sound judgment.
