Who says knights can't backstab

Chapter 667
The wheels of the carriage rolled over the wet mud, driving on the road leading to Amasir in the Volgo province.

The young earl... no, the young new marquis sat by the window, sniffing the familiar scent of moist grass and soil mixed in the air.Just by smelling this smell, he can clearly know that he is already in the rainy season of Amasir Linxia.

Thinking back to June last year, the newly launched Siliki Army was training in the rain, endlessly from morning to night every day...

This year, they should now concentrate their forces in Luye City, eyeing Fort Mandex, the provincial capital of Amasir, right?

"Master Marquis." Greely Stard's voice came from ahead.

The astrologer had never been to Amasir, and he seemed to be particularly fond of the environment here. He ran out of the carriage a long time ago, and rode on horseback to enjoy the scenery.

"What's the matter?" Cyril asked, raising the fender in front of the car.

"We followed the map, didn't we?"

"Yes."

"Then our front should be...Zhuma Town." The astrologer held up the map, put it backwards, and showed it to Cyril.

"Yes. At the beginning of Amasir's development, it was just a small post station for people and horses to rest, so it was called the horse station. Later, when more people gathered, it became a small town..." Cyril He explained casually.

"Then Zhuma Town should now belong to the territory of Lord Marquis, right?"

"If the information given by His Highness is correct, Zhuma Town is indeed my territory."

"But look, is the city in front... being attacked?" Greeley's voice was full of incomprehensible confusion.He gave up half of his body so that Cyril could see the situation of the city not far ahead——

On the not-so-high city wall not far away, there were figures "flying" beside the city wall with incomprehensible gestures.From time to time, they touched the city wall, but then broke away from the city wall, dancing up and down from time to time, like a group of butterflies wearing flowers.

Not far from the city wall, there were rows of soldiers sitting or lying on the ground. As the carriage approached, they could hear the constant shouts of "Ouch" from the queue——

At the front of the queue, there was a figure walking back and forth, picking up a soldier who was sitting down from time to time, and swearing:
"Look at how clumsy you were flying just now! Those people from Linshuiwan Town have all completed their training and passed the assessment, and you still can't even fly! Do you have less brains or a broken hand than them!"

"Sir, I want to fly too, but I'm so dizzy... Ugh—"

As the soldier spoke, his head became dizzy again, he bent down and retched.

"Go, go, sit down and rest." The officer let him sit down again in disgust, looking for the next target of criticism.

Cyril saw his messy brown hair from a distance and the astonishingly large sword on his back, and immediately recognized his identity.

He is now the veteran of the Siliki Army, the captain of the original Great Sword Troop, and the follower of Leonardo and Schell, Hagen Trogne.

"parking."

The carriage stopped, and he, Mia, and Misha got off the carriage.Hagen Trogne didn't notice their approach, but the soldiers behind him reminded: "Sir, a few people are walking towards us."

"Come here as soon as you come here, is it hindering your training?" Hagen yelled at his subordinates, and the moment he turned around and saw the young Marquis, his whole body trembled and he almost jumped up on the spot, then he saluted respectfully:

"My lord! Miss Christian, Miss Aishifan, you are back!"

"Yeah." Cyril nodded, and glanced at the soldiers behind him—they were all unfamiliar faces, and they didn't react much when they saw him. They didn't show surprise until Hagen announced his name, and started There was a lot of discussion.

"This is our lord? That Count Siliki?"

"You look too young, don't you?"

"His ears are so sharp, isn't he really an elf? An elf can also be the lord of a human kingdom?"

Obviously, these are not the residents of Siliki and Phil Territory. It seems that they are the natives of the new town who expanded after Siliki built the new city.

These words floated into Hagen Trogne's ears, causing his face to turn blue and red. He turned around in shame and anger, and said loudly, "Give me... I'm quiet!"

"Listen, this is our lord of Siliki, the youngest Earl of La Rochelle, Count Cyril Adrian! Without the lord, there would be no Siliki, and there would be no rich life for you now! "

The expressions of the soldiers behind them changed again and again, and each one of them gradually became fanatical—they couldn’t understand anything else, but now these cities that were not valued before, after being ruled by Siliki, are indeed growing day by day. The world is getting better, this is what they can feel personally.

Hagen was very satisfied with the changes in their expressions - how could there be a citizen who is not fanatical to the lord?In his opinion, this is impossible!

"My lord, these are the recruits of the Special Regiment in Zhuma Town. I am training them to use the Lurea bird special attack device..."

Seemingly seeing Cyril's slightly puzzled eyes, he immediately turned sideways, revealing the two long iron boxes hanging beside him:

"That's it. The Lurea Scientific Research Base put it into the army in January. It can quickly and directional burst through the wind element to complete a short-distance flight in the air. If it is supplemented by a hook lock, the moving speed can be even faster. "

In just a few words, a look of disbelief appeared on Cyril's face.He turned his head to look at Mia next to him. Miss Mage was opening her mouth slightly, with uncontrollable excitement in her beautiful eyes:
Isn't this the idea she had proposed in the first place?

Could it be that Teacher Lydia Shelley has successfully researched it!
"Let's demonstrate." Cyril said to Hagen, who was stunned for a moment, and then said ecstatically: "Yes, I understand, my lord!"

He then walked out of the queue, came to the open space on one side, and tapped lightly on the iron box hanging beside him. Cyril only felt a slight fluctuation of magic power, and then the wind element quickly gathered in the iron box.

Hagen quickly took two steps forward, and then the wind suddenly erupted, sending his whole body into the air five meters high, and then reversed his direction three times in the air—he held the big sword high in his hand Over the top of his head, he swung his sword at the same time as he sprinted down for the last time, and a sword blasted a deep pit on the ground.

"My lord, that's probably the case."

After standing still, he hurriedly ran back to Cyril, and bowed again.

"Principal Shelley named this device Flying Birds, and this set of tactical moves was designed and completed under the guidance of Master Memphis, named Waterfowl Flurry."

Cyril nodded lightly, but there was already a stir in his heart——

Good guy, really good guy!
When I was not in Siliki, was Siliki exploding technology points like crazy there?
This way of fighting is different from any army on the mainland today - imagine that the infantry on both sides were charging at each other, but one side suddenly flew into the air and attacked from top to bottom. live!

Now Cyril understands why Siliki was able to take down Bianlin Town, Windshaft Castle and Luye City so quickly.

A group of soldiers with high proficiency in the use of "Birds" can completely ignore the city wall and rush into the city without a mage in charge and a large magic circle to stop them!

This is too unreasonable!
"Show me a set."

A set of "Flying Birds" was immediately delivered to Cyril. The long iron cans on both sides are hollow, made of a very light metal, linked by a belt, and there is no sense of drag when worn on the body.

He covered the "bird" with magic power, perceived its internal structure, and quickly found its core - several small magic circles engraved inside, each with a small piece of magic spar inlaid in the center.

These fragments of magic spar are small in size, and Cyril estimates that one piece of long magic spar obtained at the beginning can be split into hundreds of such small stones.

The magic circle surrounding the magic spar was written in a complex text, and Cyril remembered that such text appeared in Siliki's secret relic, "Lurea".

He still remembered what Mia said when he was in Lurea:
"In fact, some ideas can already be realized. For example, engraving the spells of the atmosphere can make the equipment have a boost effect, so that the soldiers have a stronger rushing ability; another example is the simultaneous activation of the earth element array, which can make the defense of the soldiers array in It went up a notch in an instant..."

"The problem lies in the magic power support. We still haven't found a suitable way to smoothly output the magic power in the magic spar into the equipment. If this is not solved, these equipment are disposable and have to be re-enchanted every time. "

And after more than half a year of research, Lydia Shelley, she really made a breakthrough in the experiment in "Lurea", and successfully found a way to input the magic power of the magic spar into the device—

This is definitely an epoch-making breakthrough!

A small magic circle that can be powered continuously by magic spar. This technology can be used in many ways.

Cyril can even predict that from the moment this technology comes into being, warfare will enter a whole new era!

"Approximately how many troops do we have equipped with this device?"

"Currently, 3000 sets have been put into use, 2000 sets are supplied to the front lines, and the remaining [-] sets are used for recruit training in newly occupied cities such as Zhuma Town and Xiangbao Town." Hagen replied excitedly, " Your lord, at present, our regular army has more than [-] troops, and the reserve army has a reserve of [-] people, so we are fully capable of capturing Fort Mandex in one fell swoop!"

"As long as you give an order, our deer's head crescent moon flag must be hung on the top of Fort Mandekers tomorrow!"

"Okay." Cyril smiled, "Let everyone go to rest, and practice this device to avoid injury."

Hagen dismissed the soldiers present, and earnestly invited Cyril and others into Zhuma Town.

This pitiful town, which was still small at the beginning, has changed its appearance at this moment-the newly built city wall has expanded the area of ​​​​the city several times, and most of the surrounding areas are construction sites, and new houses are being built.

As for the central part of the city, the most conspicuous one is the market headed by the Boyle Chamber of Commerce. One after another, carriages are parked from one end of the street to the other, and each carriage is loaded with goods. Drive off and leave Zhuma Town.

Cyril saw all these changes in his eyes.The Boyle Chamber of Commerce has a very mature operating system after being promoted by Siliki and Firland. Their trade route has reached the southernmost point of Amasir, the Adler area along the Adelaide Sea. Silikie's cider is in vogue.

Such a mature business ability is a blow to a small town like Zhuma Town. It is like it is very difficult to improve from 95 points to 75 points in an exam, but it is very easy to increase from [-] points to [-] points.

Zhuma Town, a city that used to score [-] points, was able to get a passing score at this time.

Cyril feels that he has too many questions to ask, the recent situation of Siliki’s senior management, the development of Siliki, and the Lurea Research Institute that Hagen just mentioned, Dean Lydia——When will Lydia Became the dean?
However, he still chose the most realistic and sharpest question to ask.

"Hagen, each set of Asuka is equipped with nearly six magic spar fragments. Do you know how expensive such equipment is?"

"I know, Lord Lord." Hagen's heart is much more delicate than his appearance, "Now the price of a magic spar the size of a kingdom unit should be 6.3 Gentry, which is almost double that of last year, and There is a price but no market—"

The price of gold has been rising, and the price of magic spar will naturally increase accordingly, but the problem is that magic spar is not something that can be bought with money.

He was starting to worry now, might Lydia Shelley have squandered the pile of magic crystals he had back then?
"My lord, you don't have to worry about this."

Speaking of this, Hagen suddenly showed a strange smile, his eyes seemed to be dancing gold coins, and he laughed non-stop:

"You don't know, you really don't know what we found in the mine over the past few months!"

He quickly approached Cyril's ear, and with just a few whispered words, the young Marquis stopped in the middle of the street on the spot—

"A companion magic spar mine."

Then, Cyril couldn't help but let out a laugh like Hagen's, a money fan:

"Hey, hey, hey hey~"

"Our family is rich, hehe!"

The two finally returned to normal. Hagen continued: "As for why Ms. Shelley is called the dean... because Mr. Angers and Baron Jean made a plan."

""About the direction of scientific research and magic development in Xiliji", a new urban area outside Xiliji has been planned as the college campus. Ms. Shelley will be the dean of the research institute, and the dean of the Master Academy has not yet been determined..."

The plan of this mage academy was set by Cyril and the others long ago.And the dean is by Cyril's side - professional-level mage Sugel Winkler, who will be able to take office immediately when he arrives in Siliki.

As for the research institute...

It is built on the previous Lurea secret room.

The research institute has become the best cover for the secret room.
