Raise the sword sky

Chapter 707 Mechanical Side ([-])
What a shit!
After listening to Lin Yang's words, although Jacob, who was forcibly put on "insurance" by Lin Yang, withered like an eggplant beaten by frost, the two extraordinary mercenaries were also dumb and ate Coptis chinensis, and their hearts were terribly bitter.

Jacob was right on one point. Their "Blooded Crown" really didn't care about the little money. What they really wanted was the portable steam magic cannon.

The reason why "Blooded Crown" stopped funding Jacob is because Jacob's research has reached a bottleneck, and it is difficult to break through in a short period of time. Continuing to force research will only be a waste of money, and manufacturing Although the prototype of the new magic cannon that came out is only a semi-finished product and is still a short distance away from the design goal, it is barely enough. At least it has changed from the original fortress cannon to a field cannon that can be pulled by horses at high speed and can be dispatched. Useful.

On the other hand, they also discovered that Jacob has been playing tricks with them, not to mention hiding the key technology of the new magic cannon, and even often embezzling funds for private work. Can this be tolerated, and Jacob I also realized that the downstairs was exposed, so I simply wrapped up everything and fled...

Therefore, although Jacob looked pitiful, he was actually far less innocent than he appeared. The little old man with a white beard was quite thoughtful, and Lin Yang didn't have any psychological burden to restrain him.

Holding a box of gold coins and three "All wounds heal instantly Shiquan Dabu pills", the two mercenaries were sent out like this. Perhaps they were unwilling, but their form was stronger than that of others, facing Lin Yang's tremendous pressure , what can they do?

Go back and find someone to take revenge... You don't even dare to borrow their courage. This is the legendary Prince of the East. He killed the Demon Archduke. He is also closely related to the Three Lights Council. Are you tired of seeking revenge from him?
Lin Yang has already asked clearly through Christina. Although the "Blooded Crown" mercenary group is not weak, its reputation has never been very good. There are often things like killing good people and taking credit for their merits, and they often do things such as robbing families and homes. It can be said that they are notorious, so it is equally satisfying for Lin Yang to trick them.

"Jacob will be with us from now on. I wonder what your plans are, Miss Jindy?"

Ignoring the wrinkled facial features of Jacob, who looked like a bitter melon, Lin Yang turned his gaze to Jindi. There was no employment relationship between her and Jacob, but she had a strong sense of responsibility and always protected Jacob. So far, it can be said to be conscientious.

"My home has been destroyed by the people of the Bloody Crown."

Jin Di said distressedly: "Now I am homeless, and because I have introduced the 'Blooded Crown' person into the village, the people in the village probably don't welcome me anymore."

"Everything is the fault of this bastard!"

As Mo Qingchou spoke, she glared at Jacob, who was shy away not far away, trying to lower her sense of existence, thanks to the fact that she had a good impression of this guy at first.

Then she said to Jindi again: "Stay here, and you can also help us supervise this bastard. He still owes your bodyguard's salary, so you can't make him cheaper."

Although Jin Di looks like a little girl, she is actually in her 30s, which is the peak period of experience, physical fitness, and fighting intuition for a fighter. If it is not a special long-lived race, it will go downhill. Halflings in the continent of Tanris live longer than humans, but what is interesting is that male puberty is very short. At the age of three or forty, they look like a little old man who is prematurely aging. But women's puberty is very long, and they don't look old at the age of 40 or 40, just like Jin Di at the moment.

After thinking for a while, Jin Di nodded and said, "Okay, I'll stay."

After a pause, she said again: "I will restrain Jacob and prevent him from messing around."

Obviously she was still a little worried about Jacob staying among Lin Yang and the others. She knew Jacob's moral character. He was a guy who would shine brightly if he was given a little sunshine. In order to prevent him from doing something irreparable, she still Decided to stay and supervise this guy well.

Compared with Jacob, the lower limit of this Jindi Spark is obviously much higher, at least he is quite loyal. This is also the commonality of the halfling race. The small body contains noble sentiment and courage. Jacob, by contrast, is the real outlier.

"Boss, since I am your employee from today, can we discuss this issue of treatment first?"

No, after the initial fear and tension, Jacob quickly returned to his original nature. This guy's adaptability is definitely extremely strong, and he belongs to the kind that can live well even if he is thrown into the endless abyss. He seemed to have forgotten the restrictions on him all of a sudden, and stood in front of Lin Yang with a shy face, trying to bargain.

Lin Yang and the girls around him have never seen such a tired and lazy person before. He is matched with his image of a big-headed doll-like old man with a white beard. A chuckle couldn't help but spread out.

This Jacob is definitely an old fritter, his eyes lit up immediately when he saw this reaction, and he said with a stick: "Boss, my requirements are not high, except for the daily salary of research funds..."

Before the words finished, a small hand suddenly reached out from the side, grabbed his collar and lifted him up, and his words were choked back into his throat.

It was none other than Jin Di who made the attack. She strangled Jacob's neck and said to Lin Yang and the others: "My lords, please forgive his nonsense. In fact, he is not like this usually."

Jacob wanted to say something, but Jin Di gave him a hard look, so he had no choice but to shut up. These days, he has relied on Jin Di's protection to survive, and he still gave Jin Di a lot of face.

A while later, at Lin Yang's request, Jacob finally assembled the pile of mechanical components. The parts were a lot, but they were not very big when put together. Just move easily.

"He actually did it?"

It was Christina who spoke, and she ran up to the magic cannon with a face full of surprise, and said: "From the appearance, it is really a magic cannon, and its size has been reduced by at least two-thirds... "

"That's right, this is my Jacob's technique after all."

The little old man with the white beard became proud again, and said: "Although the size has shrunk, the power has not diminished at all. Unfortunately, there is still some distance from the ideal form. My goal is to develop a magic cannon that can be used by one person and move. The 'single person' referred to here is not a strong person like you, but an ordinary person."
