Katerina and Morayar and I returned to the Imperial Capital through the portal on the portal on the teleportation altar in the Valley of the Willows.The portal here in the imperial capital is set up in the newly bought warehouse, and when I came out of the portal, although I had already been mentally prepared, knowing that Arya had prepared a lot of logistics materials for us on the side of the imperial capital, but when I returned to the warehouse of the imperial capital, I was still startled by the mountains of materials here.In the large warehouse with a width of dozens of meters and a length of nearly 100 meters, the wooden boxes of various ordnance materials are stacked very neatly, and each wooden box is clearly marked with the details of the materials, from ordinary leather armor chain mail to swords and shields, from the finest saddle buckles to first-aid bandages, all kinds of materials are very well prepared.Morayar was taken aback by the mountains of materials in the warehouse, she gently covered her open O-shaped mouth, raised her head to look at the pile of goods four or five meters high, and exclaimed: "No wonder some people say that the defeat of a dimensional war can bankrupt a noble lord, it seems that there is some truth, but I didn't expect that so many materials need to be prepared." ”Walking in the narrow passage of the warehouse, from the ordnance area to the food reserve area, and then to the material conversion area of the metal magic rune plate, I didn't expect that in just over a week, Arya and her personal maid Betty actually completely transformed the courtyard in the imperial capital into a large storage warehouse, and also planned the warehouse in an orderly manner, with a clear division of each section.Although there are many kinds of materials in the warehouse, this kind of categorization makes it not seem difficult for us to find some designated materials in the warehouse.I stood beside Morayal, looking at the so many military supplies in front of me, thinking that the supplies that Arya had purchased had already arrived, probably waiting for me to transfer to the underground warehouse in the Willow Valley.I said to Morayal: "Actually, the war is very extreme, and the victory of a war will make the noble lords make a lot of money, but once the war is lost, it is very possible to lose all their money. ”In fact, this kind of thing is most common in the imperial capital, this plane war has caused many noble lords to go bankrupt and be forced to sell the luxury mansions they purchased in the imperial capital in order to pay for the huge arrears caused by the defeat of the war, otherwise the real estate transaction volume in the imperial capital will not have surged to this point in the last year or two.And according to Alya, many noble lords' properties are listed on the real estate exchange waiting to be sold, and this dimensional war has made life very difficult for many noble lords.Seeing that Morayar didn't understand much about this, I explained to her, "Especially in the plane wars, when our army faces the dark forces of the Abyss, whether it is the Nakma or the Nibru spiders, or the Legions of Faceless and Demonic Legions, ordinary armies can only hide in some fortifications and use large ordnance to resist these invaders. ”The female orcs were carrying these wooden boxes out of the warehouse in Xinliu Valley, and there were about twenty boxes.I turned around and pointed to the demonic structures in the wooden boxes behind me, and continued to Morayar: "The battle against these dark legions in the major planes mainly relies on the Grimm Empire's Constructed Knights. ”"Every Constructed Knight from head to toe even if he wears the most ordinary Magical Pattern Constructed Uniform, the purchase of a complete set of Magical Pattern Construct requires at least a hundred Magic Crystals, so for many Constructed Knights, a set of Magical Pattern Constructed Costume is equivalent to a rich property, in addition, the Constructed Knights also need a knight's spear, a delicate long sword with magical attributes, a knight's light shield and an excellent black-scaled war horse, of course, the war horse itself also needs to have a pair of armor, a knight's servant and a mule.A five-hundred-man Constructed Knights is worth at least 200,000 magic crystals. ”"For many lords in the Grimm Empire, defeat in the Plane War basically means that the entire Constructed Knights Order is completely dispersed, so even a noble marquis can sometimes afford such a huge loss."
Hearing that I had elaborated on the enormous cost of forming a Construct Knights, Morayar paused for a moment, staring blankly at the wooden chests filled with demonic structures.I saw that she was stunned at this time, so I leaned into her ear and said to her, "Hey, what are you thinking?"
”She came back to her senses suddenly, took a deep breath to calm her mood, and then said to me with a smile: "I was thinking that the Grand Duke of Sloit Province really didn't trust you ordinarily, you just sent a letter to her, and the Duke sent ten elite Constructed Knights to help you, and actually let you completely dominate the entire battle, isn't she worried that you will lead these Constructed Knights into the enemy's trap?"
”In fact, I was quite surprised by this matter until now, I didn't think that Duke Jingyue would not only agree, but in fact, without even some of the most basic investigations, he directly sent ten Constructed Knights to Durva Province.Even Caterina gave me some suspicious glances.She didn't care that I occasionally had native maids like Pujaka and Connie around me, or that I had a noble lover like Arya or Morayal, but that didn't mean she didn't care that a duchess was so kind to me.I smiled a little awkwardly and said to Moraya'er: "Hehe, it turns out that Duke Jingyue is still very discerning in this matter, at least I am trustworthy, after all, I saved her before, this may be some kind of compensation from her." ”The Trump stronghold where Katerina was stationed on the Hierro plane before was a large armaments and materials distribution center, so when she saw these logistics and military supplies, she only pursed her lips slightly, and did not show surprise.When we walked to the door of the warehouse, we just saw that the big iron door of the warehouse was pushed open from the outside, and the long-lost sunlight shone in from the outside of the warehouse.Betty was standing outside the warehouse, and when she saw us coming out of the warehouse, she said to me, "Count Giga, you are here too, and the master of Arya has just sent someone to ask you to inspect the materials in the warehouse. ”She kept calling me a noble title in front of outsiders, and I pursed my lips and nodded slightly at her, and asked with a straight face, "Is Alia here?"
”"Yes, Count Giga, the master will be there soon."
Betty smiled at me, and she pulled at her corn-colored dress with one hand and saluted me.She is able to maintain very proper etiquette at all times.In the harsh sunlight, I saw a group of bakery attendants carrying linen bags into the warehouse from the outside, and I could see that these were linen bags full of baked wheat cakes, each containing twenty baked wheat cakes, and the bags were neatly cylindrical, and they looked very neatly placed on the shelves.At least fifty attendants were carrying the bags of baked wheat cakes, and they were moving quickly, and the large magic caravans were parked at the gate of the courtyard, and one by one they unloaded the baked wheat cakes, and these magic caravans did not rush to leave the place, but stopped on the side of the road.I thought to myself that these large magic caravans would be just right for the black iron weapons I had brought with me from Hiero to the blacksmith workshop in North Duisburg.It didn't take long for Arya to come to the warehouse in a court-like dress, the tunic skirt made her waist slender, her breasts straight, and her body exuded a mature charm.Her neck is as elegant as a white swan, she bows her head slightly, the moment she sees me, it is difficult to hide the joy in her eyes, under the flow of her eyes, her beautiful eyes look at the wooden box behind me, walk behind me, and signal the maid next to her to open the lid of the wooden box, she looked over, and then asked me in surprise: "How did you bring back so many magic pattern armor?"
”Later, Arya also realized that these armors were damaged to a certain extent, and there was already some clarity in her eyes.I was beside Alia, my eyes falling on her round, fair shoulders, her delicate collarbones revealing a few graceful curves.She probably felt my burning gaze and smiled at me, I said to her, "Help me order a few magic caravans, I'm going to the headquarters of the Mingshi Guild in the Tower of Pride, these demonic armors must be repaired as soon as possible" Arya quickly understood what I was trying to do, but she hoped that she could understand correctly, so she asked repeatedly: "These demonic armors are all from the knights of the North Wind Legion?"
You're bringing back these demonic armors just to repair them as soon as possible?
”"Yes."
I replied very succinctly.There was a bit of shrewdness between her eyebrows, and it was precisely at this time that the trace of charm in her eyes was the most charming.She raised her delicate eyebrows and said to me, "Leave these things to me!"
”Her lips raised a curved arc slightly, and she said to me: "The miniature tornado rune plate and the continuous frost rune plate sold in your rune plate workshop have made some junior inscriptions in the imperial capital almost bankrupt, and many junior inscriptions in the imperial capital who used to carve magic rune plates have now changed their careers to do the repair work of magic pattern construction, if they recognize that you need to repair a large number of magic pattern structures, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no mistakes in the middle."
It's better for me to come forward and do this, a little more steady. ”Listening to her say this, I realized that these three kinds of magic rune plates have been initially promoted in the imperial capital, and have been recognized by the imperial capital magic market, which directly leads to the difficulty of other magic rune boards of the same kind to sell, and those junior masters who continue to frost magic scrolls basically can't draw, but there are many people who rely on making fire gathering miniature tornadoes These two kinds of rune plates are there.Among those junior masters, there are actually people who have changed careers and become repairers of junior magic pattern construction.Because of the urgency of time, I had to remind Arya, "I only have one day, you can find a few more Demon Pattern Fabrication Workshops to repair these Demonic Pattern Fabrics separately, the sooner the better." ”Arya looked at me dotingly and said, "I know, I will help you do it, and the life of the Imperial Capital Magic Pattern Fabrication Workshop has not been so easy recently, they need to raise so many junior inscriptions, and it is estimated that the pressure is not ordinary, so they need this kind of simple order, and they will complete the restoration of these Demonic Pattern Fabrication according to the time I specified." ”Seeing that Arya had promised to help me deal with the repair of the magic pattern structure, I said to her: "I will take these black iron weapons to North Duisburg first, there is a large backlog of black iron weapons in the last few battles, and the demand for giant crossbow arrows has increased recently, I will go to the boss of North Duisburg Robert to discuss to see if they can increase the production of some giant crossbow arrows, and I will also purchase a batch of armaments for ordinary infantry regiments." ”Hearing me say this, Arya knew that I was going to talk to the boss in North Duisburg about the various orders for the next month, and the proportion of the various billets produced in North Duisburg in the total share, so she did not say that she would help me do it for me.Instead, he instructed Betty on the side to quickly organize people to carry out the heavy black iron weapons in the innermost part of the warehouse, and continue to rent the large magic caravans parked on the side of the street to transport these black iron weapons over.Afterwards, Arya stayed with me and asked me with a concerned expression, "Is the plane war going well on the other side of the Hiero plane?"
”I said to her, "It's all right, with the Knights of the North Wind Legion, both battles went very well, the crisis on the side of the Green Valley Forest has been completely resolved, and now our army has advanced south into the forest south of the Cracked Stone Graveyard, and the next destination is the Bridge of the Sunfury." ”At this point, it occurred to me that I should write a letter to Zach and Ernestine and tell them about the war on my side.So I said to Arya: "Oh, by the way, in the southern region of the Black Forest, we have not been able to pass on this news, I will write a letter later, you can help me send it to the Samoyed Duke in Durva, or anything else, maybe not so important, but at least pass on the situation on my side to Zach and Ernestine." ”Arya gladly accepted the errand and said, "Okay, I will send someone to the province of Durva myself to deliver the letterhead to the Duke of Samoyed." ”I'm on the Hiero plane, and it's hard to get news from the Imperial Capital, so I asked Arya about Ma and Spee, who haven't returned from the orc tribe of the Pai Plateau, and there is no news coming from them for the time being.As for the rest of the news, I said to Arya, "In addition, you can bring me the last few issues of the magic newspaper later, I want to know about the latest news in the imperial capital." ”"Got it!"
Arya agreed to my orders, and then shouted to her personal maid Betty, "Betty" In addition to going to North Duisburg, I am also going to return to the Royal Academy of Magic and go to the library to ask Scholar Sean about some taboos about intermediate water magicians.
