Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Chapter 41 Digging Stones

Looking at the two people in front of him, he sighed helplessly, "I will not deprive you two of your noble status, but this matter is serious and minor, and Davian leads people out of my order. I also have a part of the responsibility to meet Princess Etila."

"Bruni, you are discussing the tournament with Maslow, I can understand that, but."

The two immediately stood at attention, and then it was time to wait for the punishment. The worst possibility was to be assigned to watch the rocks by the sea, or to dance in Avalon.

After thinking about it, this punishment is still worthwhile. Let them go to the mine to dig rocks. If they fail to meet the standards, they are not allowed to come back. There is also the martial arts competition, and the bonus has to be turned over as military expenses.

"After the two of you in the dark world are over, the bonuses you get from participating in the martial arts tournament will be handed over to serve as military expenses for the expansion of the cavalry."

Hearing this punishment that was not considered a punishment, the two of them nodded quickly.

There is so much gold in the dark world, and if you pay more attention next time, you will definitely get a lot of it. The prince has promised to give everyone a thousand gold leaves as a reward when he got the gold from the countess last time, and the martial arts tournament , they only want the honor of the champion.

Seeing the happy expressions of the two, Imrik sneered.

"After the celebration is over, you two will go to the mine to dig stones. If you don't meet the standards, you are not allowed to come back. And Davian, after moving the stones, let me go to Vaal Anvil to serve as a blacksmith's attendant for Coster. When you can calm down, I will adjust You go back to the court."

Davian's character must be refined. Originally, Imrik planned to pay attention to this matter when he had time later, but now he must hurry up. If he continues to be so reckless, he is not at ease to put any troops on him. hands.

Regardless of Davian's pleading face, he waved his hand and told them to get out quickly, which was a bit of an eyesore.

In the early morning of the next day, Etila, who was sitting in front of the vanity mirror, was taking care of her long golden hair under the service of several maids. Azul believed that long hair often symbolized a person's beauty, and both men and women would spend a lot of money. Lots of time for upkeep.

Finally, the maid pinned a hairpin inlaid with various gemstones on Attila's head, and signaled Attila to stand up.

The yellow and white Tairen Locke court dress is decently worn on the body, the blue gemstones on it are polished neatly and completely, and the waist shows the proud figure without omission. It can be seen that it comes from a certain fashion designer hand.

The resolute face is also softened by the superb makeup skills. The long golden hair is wrapped in two braids at the back of the head and fixed with a white headband. The whole person has completely lost the look of a soldier. Template princess image.

Picking up the corner of the skirt, she turned around casually, "I should behave like a princess, right?"

When she said this, Etila's tone was a little uncertain. Compared with playing with paintings and poems in the court all day, she is better at picking up spears and knives and charging on chariots. The last time she wore this dress was already What happened five years ago, because I like it so much, I brought it here with me.

The maid picked up a bottle of special mixed perfume from Avalon's most famous perfumer Ang Basser from the dressing table and sprayed it on the princess. The special rose produced in the Garden of the Eternal Queen and an extremely rare rose in the heart of the oak forest. The scented plants made this crystal bottle worth several complete sets of militia armaments, but in the palace, this is just a more precious thing.

"You are the pearl of Tyranok, and you are guaranteed to make those dragon princes who have never seen what a real lady is like open their eyes."

The maid kept cheering up Etila. She was the one who served Etila since she was a child, so she naturally knew what she was like. In social situations, Princess Etila would rather drink with familiar soldiers, but she didn't want to Pretentious and pretentious with those princes whose families are prominent and have no choice but to make a name for themselves.

"Prince Long has stole the limelight in this Twilight Tide. Presumably the princess and him must have a lot of topics to talk about."

Hearing the maid's words, Etila couldn't help but smile. Imric did make a name for himself in the Twilight Tide, but most of them were negative. Now many poets in Lothern have written poems about him.

The most famous is that an anonymous author compared Imrik to the miser Sherlock in a play staged during the time of the Isis Phoenix King, saying that he only had gold coins in his eyes but no emotion, and the ruthlessness of the Dragon Prince It is perfectly combined with the businessman's emphasis on profit over friends. On the surface, it is a compliment, but it is actually ironic.

And Caledo didn't respond to this, as if he didn't know about it.

After going to check it carefully again, and found that there was no disrespect, Etila walked towards the door with the help of the maid. There was already a carriage sent by the dragon palace outside.

At this time, Imrik was sitting in the study, holding a piece of parchment, listening to the report given to him by two mages, Hadaris and Darrit.

"Prince, after three months of research, we found that these runes have a strong attraction between them. When they are sorted in a specific order, they will produce abnormal magic fluctuations. They are not like Asur runes or dwarf runes. It has a repulsive effect."

"And the serial numbers of the runes still have certain rules, which can be regarded as a system. The two of us think that there are a total of more than [-] pieces. If we get all of them, we can study the parts as a whole and master the process of making this kind of runes. law."

Nodding in satisfaction, to be honest, it’s good to be able to research these things in the past three months. Imrik didn’t expect them to be able to make the same runes directly. The material of that thing is a bit special. The world stone fragments are used as the base, and then carved on it.

"Thank you for your hard work, I will set off again tonight, so get ready."

Just thinking that Hadaris wanted to continue discussing the issue of rune sorting with the prince, there was a knock on the door.

Pressing the button on the desk, it was a maid who said, "Prince, Princess Etila has left the Dragon's Breath Palace, do you want to change into a dress for you?"

Subconsciously, he looked at himself. The red and white cotton robe fit comfortably, and he didn't have any items that symbolized his status. He looked like a rich peasant.

"Well, I'll be there in a while."

Without asking about Imrik's time, the maid bowed and closed the door to leave.

"I still need to receive Princess Etila. If you are interested, you can also attend the banquet. Morris has brought out a lot of treasures."

After the maid left, Imrik asked them for their opinions. Davian had already been placed at the entrance of the hall to watch the gate, and Masno and Bruni were leading people to train, so they could relax a little.

Many people were invited to this banquet, but some people said that things were in a hurry and there was no time. If Imrik used the Dragon Palace as an excuse to hold the Twilight Tide celebration banquet, then the number of people would be even more, but I heard It was to receive Princess Tyrannok, and I lost interest for a while.

In addition, the expanded army is in urgent need of training, and the targets issued by Imrik are very tight, and only some nobles who have completed the targets will participate.

The two mages stood up and said that they would also participate in the banquet later, so they left first.
