The Black Scepter

[Five Thousand Words, Seek monthly ticket support! 】

Since the various countries on the mainland received Murphy's "warning", two months passed.

During these two months, the mainland looked calm and even more stable than ever before—because no one dared to open the war end at will, all the empire was like a long bow slowly pulling away, waiting for the so-called "crisis".

But what about the crisis? When will the enemy invade?

Pay attention to it, but they all understand that the "crisis" in the mouth of Murphys, the Dragon Knight, does not have an accurate time point. Maybe three days or three years. Who can know?

But the news that Murphy was wounded by an inexplicable enemy made no effort to make the emperor monarchs frown.

And thanks to the grand ceremony of Edward III, Murphy was famous, otherwise his few words would never have such an effect. To some extent, Murphy’s remarks alone dominated the history of this continent. Footsteps-But as this figure of public opinion, Murphy was in the city of Sisselin, and disappeared.

The prototype of the Magic Tower has already begun to appear. It is expected that the main body of the 70-meter-high tower has been completed with the efforts of countless workers day and night construction. After those "energy-drawing magic circles" are arranged in the ground in a proper way, the city's defense mechanism can be fully activated.

And in the Magic Lab, the masters who have also developed and improved on the subject given by Murphy in the past two months have become unkempt, and the big guy who has been numbered countless times in the handle. "He lifted it outdoors with magic, set Mars, whose spirit almost collapsed, and then slammed into it, dragging it back to continue to improve."

Such behavior is performed almost every day, and all members of the "night watch" up and down are already used to it.

Uninformed people are only doing magic experiments, but only those wizards who participate in the research will understand...They are creating something amazing...It is like the stirrup that makes the cavalry no longer tasteless. Like the trump card of the battlefield, the "big guys" who have stacked a whole warehouse in the laboratory will eventually leave a strong stroke in history.

For the mages, this is like a burst of lasting stimulant, urging them to sleep and forget their work.

Of course, the bad luck was Mars, whose wounds were getting bigger and bigger.

For the core members of the night watchman, these two months can be called a period of steady rise.

Little Lori Andariel’s attainments of her magic go one step further, and her strength has successfully reached a level. Of course, her true strength is far more than that-because of the previous "accident", now she is facing Morpheus. There has been a slight change from before, but no one went to break something.

After Joan came to Balice, he prayed daily as usual. As Murphy said, faith will not deteriorate, the sunlight above it will always be sunlight, and it will not be faith, but faith. -Her piety is enough to match any saint in history, not because of her strong willpower, but because someone took her to the top of the mountain to see the scenes that mortals could not see. The original version of The Theological Encyclopedia was neatly placed on the bookshelves by Murphys, and dozens of printed copies have been stored in the public library in the territory.

This classic was not issued in Byzantium, but it was handed down in Balice in this way-the two major religious institutions would never have thought that Murphy, who had been opposed to them for so long, would do such a thing. But this is the case...just like the bishops who are skilled in magic can never obtain the title of saints, true believers will never advertise their piety.

"Byzantine letter."

Atlantis, the Japanese elf Irindal handed over a letter and a sealed iron box to Murphys. She has re-adapted to her post and now gradually has some temperaments that have never been highlighted, perhaps because of her The reason for being the elf of the Japanese elves, leading the clan to the new life is what she has to think about every day, but fortunately, Murphy has not embarrassed any elves on these issues, and can even say that he has all the requirements for Irindal Nodded without frowning, not even bargaining.

Like what he had promised, Murphy performed his duties silently, without complaints.

Murphy opened the letter from the Byzantine royal family. After squinting and reading it carefully, it was silent for a long time. Until he raised his head, he looked at Irindal unexpectedly: "I thought you left already."

"It may be something that matters. I'll wait for an order here." She, who is familiar with Murphys, certainly understands the weight of the letter, although she has to hold the correspondence between Lilith and Murphy every week A few trips, but the official letter of the Byzantine royal family appeared for the first time in two months.

Murphy sighed and smiled: "I just missed things just now, but since you are here, I want to hear your opinion."

"Mine? I'm just an intelligence officer."

Irindal was a little surprised, she pointed at herself and said that she didn't have much interest.

"But you are a Japanese elf, and you also understand that after all, our races are different and there are differences in the way we think." Murphy shook the letter in his hand. "Byzantine navigation has made great progress, and the most important discovery is It is because the Buttigian royal family has acquired a lot of "continuous crossbows". This weapon can help an army of the empire to enhance its great combat capabilities. It can even be said that the longbowmen under Hegel collectively become the dust of history... "

"The question now is, are these resources at the other end of the sea, do we need to fight for them now?"

Eindal has some inexplicable feelings, because she never knows how to face the problem of determining the fate of a territory or even a country-she can be seen in the style of wording and order in the information that comes and goes. They came from someone's mouth, and obviously... the problem that Edward III posed before Murphy was not as simple as imagined.

"risky."

For a while, she answered, but Murphy nodded and did not comment much.

"Now the whole continent is full of wind and trees because of my few words. The seemingly stable situation can't be maintained for long, maybe three months, maybe half a year, after all, humans will not be able to bear the temptation to be quiet," he reached out and put his desk The "Theological Encyclopedia" that I have been reading in front of me puts it back in the bookshelf, "And the elves are not, so that's why I want to ask you-the day elves and night elves have no way to survive elsewhere, so these days I can only Try to meet all your requirements, though—"

"You have done enough."

Irindal suddenly seemed to understand what Murphy meant, and she pressed her lips slightly, preventing his next words, "If the war reaches Lampard, we will not complain at all."

Murphy did not speak, but continued to think for a moment, and said: "I desperately made the territory a solid place, but I will not confirm that it is 100% effective. Edward III hopes that I can support Empire diplomacy as a member of Byzantium. Career and dig out the'first pot of gold'...but I understand...the harder you work, the more Lampard's enemies will be..."

"The tree of Hida will provide you with the most powerful energy backing. I want to say so much is enough." Irindal suddenly smiled, but there was a little imperceptible emotion in the corner of his eyes, "but I still say One sentence..."

"No matter what happens, don't forget there is another elf who cares about your safety."

After a few seconds of pause, the intelligence chief sighed in relief, politely retreated, leaving some stunned Murphy in silence at his desk.

He put the letter in his hand on the table. The payment of Edward III made the value of this autograph virtually increase countless times-because the royal letters are usually dictated by the emperor and dictated by the clerk. The monarch’s personal payment represents this The letter was written by himself, and Edward III's "sincerity" towards Murphy was most vivid in this detail.

"Continent?"

Murphy whispered the name of the new continent in the mouth of Edward III, reached out and picked up a box that was not sealed by the high-level magic circle without giving the unsealing spell-presumably this was set up for himself to open. of.

"Click."

Effortlessly lifted the seal, Murphy opened the heavy metal box, and then gently took out the items that made him frown like that.

Even the crossbow.

.................................................. .......................................

"Why go?"

Ashcandi was puzzled by Murphy's decision. She looked at the man in the wheelchair and didn't know what to say.

At the same time, Andariel, who was in Ashcandi's study room, also stopped the movement of turning the book in his hand, raised his head, and raised his eyebrows, waiting for Murphy's answer.

The reaction of the two beauties, big and small, made Murphy's words that he wanted to say stuck in his throat. He coughed twice and finally sat in the chair next to him, saying: "Edward III came a letter letter."

"Why, Dragon Knight is going to be drafted into the army?"

Andariel pursed her lips slightly and looked quite dissatisfied-in the past two months she has been accustomed to living in Arantis where she can see Murphy every day, because of her seal memory and psychological age She didn't know why she was so dependent, but when she heard that Murphy was about to leave Lampard for a while, her heart suddenly lost.

"I am also hesitating."

Murphy said helplessly beside Ashkandi: "I have too many reasons to refuse his request, but there is only one thing that makes me unable to say it."

"That peculiar weapon?"

Ashcandi did not stay inside the tower all day. Andaril often pushed the blood to breathe in the city of Sicillin under the sun, except that the magicians often blurred the blood of the angel. The experiment Ashkendi, who Fez has been on the hunting ground these days, also sees it.

For her words, Murphy nodded, "The weapons developed by the laboratory are aimed at angels and demons, but because of many conditions, they can only be used for the defense of the territory. If you leave the city of Sicelin, everything will be It becomes completely passive, so I still need a weapon that makes the'night watchman' stronger—Edward III gave me a very ideal answer, but obviously..."

"A long time to go out?"

Ashkandi's tone was also somewhat lost.

"I won't leave you alone here for a long time." Murphy smiled, then turned to look at Andaril, and said: "Prepare your luggage, I think this trip may be more than any other. To stimulate."

"I also need to go?"

Loli's eyes, which were originally small and lonely, suddenly turned bright. Seeing Murphy nodded, she tried to cover up the expression of the corners of her mouth and turned her head to say: "It's not rare."

"Because of the existence of the tree of Hida, there are a large number of crystal nuclei left in the territory. I will draw a telescope within the plane here. At any place, I can return by drawing another two-way magic circle. So the territory’s Don’t worry about security.” Murphy told Ashcandi his plan—“A new batch of Byzantine fleets has already set off. We just need to converge directly with each other on the sea. Next is some diplomatic issues. Of course, it does not rule out unexpected situations."

"Only me and Andalil?"

"And Hydera. Our team does not need any servants, the Byzantine royal family will arrange everything."

"What about Jeanne d'Or?"

Ashcandy, who was very considerate, did not forget to remind Murphys of the little magician brought from Byzantium.

"The magician needs to accumulate, not accompany me to travel the world."

.......

The Byzantine maritime route is slightly behind compared to Ballice, but the powerful national strength makes the fleet equipped can be called the most advanced level today-from quantity to quality, it steadily surpasses that sent by the Royal Buttigia. The envoys, at the time of the "grand ceremony", they found the continent called "treasure" by the royal family of Buttigia along the charts brought to the Byzantine royal family by Murphys, and tasted the "sweetness" like them.

Rich resources, powerful weapons, but unlike the royal family of Buttigia, Byzantium is not prepared to immediately exchange resources for a powerful weapon called "Lian Xuan"... because Edward III’s strategy is very simple-let Murphy started.

The display of powerful forces is to allow the other party to attach importance to itself in terms of military strength. The two countries are far away from each other, and the aggression is simply unrealistic, while the strong strength will convince the other party that they have the value and necessity of forming an alliance.

With this alone, His Majesty Hasselblad of Balice can only sigh with enthusiasm...Who has left his country without a strong presence like Murphy?

Murphys did not exclude Edward III’s intentions. After all, Byzantine wanted to have more than just a crossbow, but also its manufacturing technology-the box that was handed to Murphys with the letter was not "original" The crossbow is actually a sample of Freud's hand-painted improved magic array.

Under the "processing" of the Master of the Byzantine Holy Dome, its accuracy has increased by a large amount. Murphy found that anyone who can use a crossbow can use the crossbow in his hand to aim and shoot at anytime and anywhere, although the power and his own research The "big guy" is very different, but when the fired crossbow is attached to the elemental power by Freud's circle, its lethality rises linearly. If it is a intensive shot, it can definitely deal with high-level people within 100 meters. Enemies cause fatal damage!

Imagine a soldier with more than a thousand people shooting a enemy with a crossbow in the sky. Under the enhanced crossbow arrows, even ordinary angels of a or above may have to be shot into the end of the screen!

This is the best way for mortals to fight against the strong, and powerful weapons can let the weak make a fatal threat to the strong!

So, without much hesitation, he took Ashcandi and Andalil on the road, and after crossing almost half of the continent, he crossed Constantine and entered the border of the vast ocean.

At the same time, in the deep-sea waters southeast of Byzantium, a large fleet is lining up in the wind-ravaged sea.

The number of Byzantine ships has reached an astonishing 72, but it is clear that this storm has caused the huge fleet to suffer. Exploring new routes will always bear great risks. Even if there are surveyed charts to guide you, The route taken by Sibalice to mainland Winner and Byzantium to mainland Winner must be very different-it can even be said that even the Buttigian royal fleet with extensive experience ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ will also be because Unpredictable oceans and some unknown dangers.

The violent storm continued for three days and three nights. When the fleet struggled to sail out of this huge wave of sea, it also found that it had deviated from the entire expected route and reached a sea area that was not marked on the map.

The sailing people have more or less "superstitions". Unlike the believers who believe in the **** of light, these senior sailors and captains who have been dealing with the ocean since their ancestors were not interested in those heaven and hell. When I heard about it, there were legends about the mysterious seabed... giant monsters living on the seabed, the "mermaid" of half-man and half-fish, or the sea **** holding the trident in the ancient Mythical mythology.

For unfamiliar waters, Captain Pierre, the commander of the fleet, had no choice but to abandon the rescue of 19 large and small cargo ships lost due to the storm, and instead immediately sailed towards the original fairway-no one knew that this sea would be encountered What, "Sea Monster" is not a legend, these officers of Byzantium are very clear that compared to the undescripted "Holy Fall", there have been absolutely more than 100 veritable sightings of the "Sea Monster" destroying ships and devouring humans for hundreds of years. .

Above the vast sea, the number of fleets suddenly reduced to fifty-three, with the sails paddling and accelerating to the maximum, as if fleeing, but just after traveling for a long time, another fleet appeared in the field of vision.
