How To Survive as a 10000 Hour Freebie Pirate

Episode 67

##067

When the Going Missha stopped operating, 50 troopers also stopped.

One could say that the prince’s bodyguards were too shabby troops, but it wasn’t.

They were all Auto Horse jockeys, so it was safe to say they were knights.

It’s like standing in front of the huge Going Misha, so if you have 50 knights, you won’t be ignored anywhere.

Also, among them, there were 5 people who were called great knights.

Even just subtracting this amount of troops right before the outbreak of war was a great consideration.

“It is an honor to meet you. Your Highness this Prince. My name is Major Anseed, commander of the cavalry company.”

The person in command of the escort was the company commander, but the cavalry commander had a higher rank than the commanders of other commanding armies.

‘Anseed???’

Lian, who was next to the prince, organized his thoughts.

‘ah! Smoke alarm anseed.’

He was not a person who really put out fires, but a person who specialized in reconnaissance.

Did I say that the awl pierces the pocket?

He’s just such a person.

He is expected to be promoted quickly due to this war.

In warfare in the previous era, cavalry was in charge of firepower, but with the development of horse guns, horse artillery, and tercio formations, they play the role of reconnaissance and detour maneuvers on the battlefield.

Advance reconnaissance has become very important, especially in large-scale skirmishes.

It was the only strength of the Sinsenrom Empire compared to the Roysen Kingdom.

Anseed is the man who stands at the pinnacle.

‘Then I guess we need to get to know each other.’

Instead of looting money, Lian thought of something he could spit on the Synsenrom Empire.

The reason cities have to pay back money is because of supply.

If the troops of the Synsenrom Empire advance into the Shul region, they will have to make local procurement… Since Lian has already brushed it off, there will be many setbacks.

So, I was planning to give half of it to the Synsenrom Empire in the name of supporting military funds so that I don’t have to plunder, not bribe…

“Major Anseed. Also to have a meal. Let’s talk for a moment.”

It was not particularly difficult for Going Missha to prepare more meals for 50 people.

Even the escort knights would be content to eat warm food, not combat rations, in a wild field like this.

“What are you doing? Count Leon?”

Lian called him to the parasol installed on one side of the deck, not the dining room.

Eating one-on-one with a black man was not very reluctant, but it was an opportunity to keep a lot of money.

“When the escort is over, you return straight to the battlefield, right?”

He smiled innocently with the expression of a child, but Anseed answered firmly.

“yes. If we return without a break, it will be possible to join before reaching the Shul area.”

He was a passionate soldier. He was frantic to make a contribution in this war.

“Actually, we spent a lot of money knowingly or unknowingly to escort the prince.”

“You have suffered a lot. No one would have thought of penetrating the Sul region. Are the expenditures related to disinformation and manipulation?”

In fact, I didn’t spend any money on that.

It just happened because of Lian’s tearful performance and the anger of the President of the Republic of Nerder.

“As expected, you know it well because you are an elite cavalry officer. so… We did quite a bit of local procurement to cover the cost.”

Anseed’s face hardened slightly at Lian’s words.

If it has already been robbed once, there may be a backlash or fewer items than expected when the Synsenrom Empire makes local procurement.

Then you have to rob small towns and villages, which eats up the stamina of the army.

“This is a big deal. If local procurement is not possible, the amount of supply will have to be increased… I am concerned about the speed of movement of the troops.”

Ryan was worried about that too.

No matter how much super-duke Carl’s speciality is fast marching, if there is no cooperation on the spot, the speed will inevitably slow down.

But there is a way.

‘I just have to pay for it.’

There is a theory that the development of currency is the promise of the state to supply the army.

In other words, give something valuable and receive the cooperation of the residents.

Call it local procurement and it’s much quicker and more efficient than looting.

“There is a way. Actually, I can gulp, but I have something left for the synsenrom empire.”

“yes?!!”

“I will report to the Empress, but I know of a pearl mine that will yield significant war funds.”

This saying hides a lie in the truth.

It’s a lie that Lian tried to get it, but he didn’t get it for the empire.

I don’t have the time, and I only know the approximate location.

In fact, the true identity of the Pearl Mine is the dregs storage for the n9932-dana135 fortress.

The fort was originally a dam.

The water in the dam is drawn from underground.

Another magical spell was needed to keep the pipe through which the water was flowing unobstructed.

The garbage storage is where the foreign substances are disposed of.

‘It must have accumulated a lot of relics because it endured for a very long time without being able to erupt for several hundred years.’

The true identity of the sari mentioned in the joke is pearls.

There will be quite a few other gems as well.

“Ahh. The Count is truly an ally of the Sinsenrom Empire. The Empress will be pleased.”

It’s not wrong to say that it’s right.

A territory can be considered a small country.

Of course, Rian didn’t have any territory right now.

“However, the location is a bit difficult to find. I’ll give you a rough idea, so Major Anseed will have to work hard.”

“I can do as much as I can.”

Pearls are precious even in this world.

No, I think it’s worth more.

This is because it is widely used as a consumable for magic items.

There is a family called Milanojeong, a member of the Bennett Guild, one of the hegemons in the Middle Sea.

Their specialty is pearls, a jewel from the sea.

It is said that pearls were common in ancient times, but his family, who were farming shells, benefited from the sudden decrease in supply.

Perhaps because it was common at the time, pearls were mainly used in the traces of magic that remain today.

Pearls were expensive anyway.

“As soon as possible, we can use it for supplies and military salaries instead of money.”

“We can reduce the backlash from soldiers and residents.”

The armament of the Synsenrom Empire is now reaching its limit.

I’ll be able to put out an urgent fire with that one.

“Oh and… I don’t know if I can ask you this… … .”

Originally, I was going to ride the Auto Horse with Prince Leopold’s halo, but I don’t think that’s necessary.

Now Major Anseed’s eyes are bursting with hearts.

“I don’t know what kind of request it is, but if it’s something I can cooperate with, I’ll do it.”

He thought that since he had given himself the credit for finding a huge mine, he would pay the price in return.

Even if I can’t do it, I picked up a special diagnosis.

Perhaps when you arrive in the capital, Count Lian Leon will directly mention Anseed and ask the Empress.

Then, Anseed’s name will be imprinted on the Empress as well. Even if you build a small ball later, it will be mentioned louder.

Reputation was so important to a soldier.

“I want to ride an Auto Horse. With my assistant.”

“yes??? It’s not difficult, but… … .”

Anseed was worried.

In fact, to the knight, Auto Horse is no different from his own alter ego, so he does not recklessly get on the hands of others.

However, Lian is no different from a benefactor who will push the ball to him.

You can give the Auto Horse a hundred more rides.

the problem is… … .

“The Auto Horse of our Synsenrom Empire is not for everyone to ride. ah. It’s not because I ignored Count Leon, but the Auto Horse made with the technology of the Hung Kingdom doesn’t contain the ego of a horse.”

It required talent and great training.

There were many cases where even the wait staff were ridiculed and ridiculed.

That sensitive and powerful was the Auto Horse from the Hung Kingdom.

“I’m a user, so I won’t be seriously hurt if something goes wrong.”

“hmm… Even as a user, you’ll find it easy… If you’re unlucky, there’s nothing wrong with breaking something.”

At least a waitlist would end up with bruises.

“We also have a priest on our ship. It’s the bishop’s level. So what will happen if you don’t die instantly?”

“Huh… Since you’re so stubborn, I guess you really want to ride it.”

Lian smiled brightly and nodded.

The reason I’m doing this here and now is because I can’t afford to take the Autohorse once I get to the capital of the empire.

Lian is an honored guest who brought this prince from the position of the empire.

There was a high possibility that he would not allow him to ride the dangerous Auto Horse.

Even if allowed, it is clear that they will spend a lot of manpower and pay attention to safety.

“after… If it’s dangerous, you should stop.”

“Yeah~”

Anseed almost burst into laughter at Lian’s answer.

He treated his opponent as a high-ranking aristocrat, but he was like a child.

On the one hand, I feel proud.

Can you see the synsenrom empire’s longing for Auto Horse?

“Then let’s go.”

We didn’t leave immediately after the meal.

because the event happened.

-The captain rides that?

-Isn’t the Synsenrom Empire weird?

-So, I heard that the cavalry of the Synsenrom Empire is the strongest in the Yul Continent.

The pirates also climbed onto the deck of the Going Missha and watched in amazement.

In their minds, they pictured Lian getting hit by an auto hose.

– hehehe. I’ll finally see the captain struggle.

– What do you do if you get hurt?

-don’t worry. What will our bishop do?

His neck is broken and he dies instantly, but otherwise it is okay.

Even the underperforming God of War Bishop. What if only one person was injured?

His name is a bishop, and if he squeezes all his strength, he will save his life.

On the other hand, the escort cavalrymen looked on anxiously.

If Rian gets hurt, that spark might fly to them.

-What the hell is the escort leader thinking about doing that?

-under… It’s not easy enough for a kid to ride.

-It’s hard to get hurt… … .

Whether or not he knew that concern, Lian stood in front of Anseed’s Auto Horse.

he asked again.

“I don’t know if you’ve ridden a regular Auto Horse, but it’s different from them. If it is a trained horse, it is a wild horse.”

He gave a warning by telling me how to operate it. Then, looking back, he said to the guards.

“If there is danger, we intervene immediately. Save it even by throwing yourself away.”

Fifty cavalrymen are scheduled to run around Lian.

Hung cavalrymen run together like this whenever a newly trained newcomer rides a maiden.

If you think it’s dangerous, intervene and stop the runaway.

“after… … .”

Everyone was nervous when Lian finally got on the auto horse.

Anseed also climbed into his subordinate’s auto hose and looked worried.

“Gazuaaa!!”

Rian flipped the switch and synchronized mana.

burrr!!!

The Auto Horse shuddered and took off.

It feels like standing with both feet on top of a large round rubber ball.

It was difficult to keep the center of gravity not only from front to back, left and right, but also up and down.

“Wow!!”

Somehow, I even made it to the start. Speed is also a non-automatic sense.

Like a car suddenly accelerating, it may become the highest acceleration from the beginning.

‘It’s difficult.’

The reason he got on the Hung Auto Horse with such confidence was because he was the helmsman of a floating ship.

I was confident because I was at the ace level, but the feeling was similar but different.

Maybe it’s the sense of difference that comes from the different weight classes.

If I hadn’t been on a flotation boat, I would have had it in less than 5 seconds.

‘I guess I didn’t have a good feeling.’

I had another realization.

It wasn’t because Rian had excellent senses that he steered the floating ship when he fell into this world.

I memorized it after watching a first-person video on a smartphone or PC.

At this angle, I steer to a certain extent. How to operate the boat so it doesn’t capsize.

I put what I learned with my eyes into practice.

Senses are learned innately.

This time, I am using my acquired senses to apply them to the auto hose.

Boaaa!!!

“Oooohmimi!!!”

Thanks to that, Lian was struggling.

I had to improvise what I wanted to feel wrong, but this also happened when I turned off the attitude control device of the Going Missha and rode it.

“Wow… … .”

Everyone was surprised to see Lian, who seemed anxious but quickly adapted to it.

Roughly, the apprentice cavalry of the Kingdom of Hung was born.

-Is this really your first time?

-Looking at it, that’s not acting, it’s a real rookie.

What surprised me the most was the guards.

They saw Lian as a monster beyond a genius.

rumble… … .

Lian made a small lap around the plain and returned to the Going Misha.

“I’m a fool!! here… Ugh. Look at the sweat!!”

“thank you. Charlotte.”

It was so hard that I fell to the floor.

“however… young master. Can I ride it too?”

“Heh heh. okay. I was going to pick one up for you when I get to the capital anyway, so it wouldn’t hurt to try it beforehand.”

Ryan gave a sinister smile.

I must say that I wanted to see Charlotte embarrassed for some reason.

Charlotte is a great fighter anyway, so she won’t die even in the worst situation.
