[Chapter 726 This is not like you at all]
Three days later, the Gale Knights returned and reunited with the Black Earth Knights.
There was only a small number of troops stationed at the Temple of Magic. Anyway, after Mundra’s army was ambushed by Madeleine last time out of the city, they would definitely not dare to go out again in a short period of time. The Temple of Magic only needed a small number of troops. If you can hold it, you don’t have to worry about being taken back by Mondra.
At this time, the Knights of the Black Earth had advanced a lot, approaching the capital of the saints.
Strategically, Sigran currently seems to have the upper hand, but tactically, no one dares to ignore it. Knights), Knights of the White Lion, Knights of Fire, Knights of Ice, Knights of Thunder.
As long as these five knights are still there, Mondra can’t be ignored. Moreover, there is an Archbishop of Light standing beside Mondra, leading a temple knight, and this force can’t be ignored. Supplemented by a strong city security, it is not so easy to kill him.
Therefore, the Black Soil Knights were very cautious, and the army advanced to the northwest of the capital of the saints, about twenty miles away, and set up a camp.
The soldiers chopped down trees on the spot, tied the thick trunks together, nailed them into the ground, and made them into walls. Hundreds of magicians were holding magic essence potions and pens to draw a defensive magic circle on the ground. This large-scale magic circle must cover the military camp that accommodates tens of thousands of people, so the drawing of the magic circle has to be planned and divided in advance, and then a group of magicians are responsible for an area, just like programmers in later software companies, a team Responsible for a function, and finally assembled together into a complete program.
Robb found that these ancients actually knew the production method of division of labor and cooperation, but they just spent their IQ on war. If they were willing to tilt a little bit toward production, the assembly line would have been invented long ago.
When Madeleine saw the return of the Gale Knights, she was excited to greet them outside the camp.
Seeing Robb’s safe return, she waved her hand happily: “Mr. Robert, congratulations to you for taking down the Magic Temple and making a great contribution.”
Robb also waved to her with a smile.
Then, I heard Madeleine say nonsense words at a fast speed, such as “I should be able to be promoted to duke this time”, “At least ask for two more fiefs” and this kind of sweating profusely. , Robb broke into a cold sweat when he heard it, and it was estimated that the queen would lift the table after hearing it, so she just went in quickly.
He walked into the camp side by side with Madeleine, and a gust of wind knight ran over and handed Madeleine a stone with silver light: “Grand Duke, this stone…”
Madeleine was angry: “I didn’t see me. Are you talking to Mr. Robert? Take the broken stone away.” The
storm knight said with sweat: “The stone was picked up by Mr. Robert.”
Madeleine’s expression instantly softened: “I told you earlier! It turned out that Mr. Robert picked it up. Yes, that must be a good thing.” The
Gale Knight was speechless, forget it, don’t say it, retreat…
Another Gale Knight patted him on the shoulder and said, “Brother, report later, no matter what the content, use Robert’s three You can’t go wrong with the beginning of the word.”
“That’s right!”
After a while, Madeleine realized that she was holding a piece of Thorium ore, and she was really startled. People around her said that Robert had found a piece of thorium ore. Thorium veins, and also got many giant bat cubs, can’t help but get a little excited: “This is a big credit, Elizabeth will be very happy to know, this time I must convince her to promote you to rank Duke.”
Robb didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “No, no, I’m fine as a viscount now.”
That evening, Robb left the identity of Robert Smith in the camp room to “rest”, and his consciousness switched back to being lazy in the west wind. On the priest of the town, he sat quietly and waited for the call. He knew that the ghost woman must be calling soon.
Sure enough, when the setting sun was being dragged away by the sunset, the phone rang.
After taking a look back, I saw Her Majesty the Queen sitting in front of the crystal ball with her usual majestic face.
Robb said weakly: “If you have something to play, if you have nothing to go back to court.” The
Queen didn’t blame him for saying strange things at all, and went straight to the subject: “Your student Robert Smith, in a strange valley, found Thorium. Mine.”
“Oh?” Robb said, “What’s the matter? You found such a good thing, why did you call me with a dumb face? You should be smiling and cheering up.”
“You think I am like this . Are you cheating?” The queen said with a stern face: “Your students found precious thorium ore, don’t want any of them, give them all to my people, and then your people are outside the canyon, digging the skin of those giant bats , I don’t even look at the Thorium mine after digging, and walk away. Do you think I should be happy? If I really smile now, it can only mean that I am a fool.”
Robb squinted: “Then you What are you going to do?”
“What is bat skin?” The Queen didn’t want to talk about it at all, and pointed to the theme.
Robb spread his hands: “Kingoskin, a very high-grade leather material, is stronger than the skin of the Wyvern and the Thunder Lizard, and the things made are better.” The
queen squinted: “It doesn’t sound very good, Give people a kind of rush that is not useful without Thorium.”
Robb laughed: “That’s what you are wrong, leather and metal, have been used in different aspects, forcing them to compare good and bad, how can it be compared Can you figure it out? For example, I ask you, the cake is delicious or the pudding is delicious, can you compare it?”
Robb concluded: “I got good leather and gave you good metal. This is my benevolence and righteousness. This is called everyone’s benefit.” The
Queen squinted: “Then let’s change it, I want good leather, you want good metal, are you willing?”
Robb said without hesitation: “No!” The
Queen “touched “I slapped the table on the table: “This is a real hammer. That skin is definitely better than Thorium. I want skin, not Thorium.”
Robb said with a smile: “Don’t come! My people found that. The giant bat was also cleaned up by me with an arcane explosion. It is only the connective skin that I understand the value of. It should belong to me, and there is no negotiation.”
The queen said: “But this was found in the country of Sigran, and it belongs to the kingdom of Gran, and I must take a share of it.”
“Wow, why did I say you are like this?” Robb said: “You It’s called cheating.” The
queen suddenly showed a rare charming smile: “I’m usually too reasonable, and I rarely cheat, so that you forget that I am a woman.” She suddenly acted like an ordinary girl. : “Give me some knotty skin, don’t take all the good stuff, okay, please, please.”
“Stop!” Robb said in a cold sweat: “Don’t make trouble, it’s not like you at all. .”
