Chapter 761 Legendary Sword
If there really is an underground waterway that goes directly to the Rhine
The Banshee can go directly to the Rhine along the underground river, which is very convenient for providing support or transmitting information.
Although the distance would cause the Banshees to lose vitality due to the symbiotic contract, if they traveled by water, the time it took for the Banshees to travel between the Rhine and Castel and back would be very short, and their swimming speed in the water would be extremely fast.
As long as you don't stay in the place for too long, the side effects are almost negligible.
And there is an underground waterway leading to the Rhine, so does it lead to other places? This is also worth exploring.
This is good news, but on the other hand, it also brings some troubles.
For example, seawater flows into the ground.
Zeus originally thought that only on the Tis side would there be more underground river entrances in the river channel, but now it seems that this may be the case all the way to the Rhine.
It's not difficult to block these entrances, but it's a bit of a hassle to block all of them along the way.
This is true even with the help of a banshee.
It’s hard to say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.
but
Xius suddenly frowned, he noticed a point that he had always overlooked:
"Isn't the Principality of Tis by the sea? How come there's an underground river?!"
Whether it is a river on the ground or a river underground, it will eventually flow somewhere.
This place is usually the sea.
But we’re already at the seaside, how come there is an underground river?
That's below sea level!
Xiu Si directly opened the mind link: "Is anyone exploring the underground river?"
Nini: "I, I, I! I'm down there, boss."
Hughes: "Didn't you follow the underground river to the Rhine? Why are you still here?"
The mind link has a range limit. The fact that Nini can connect to the mind link means that she is not far from Blood Harbor.
At least it is definitely not possible to connect in the Rhine.
Nini's tone was a little more embarrassed: "I'm lost."
Hughes: 『.』
Zeus was speechless. "Are you really a banshee? What about your water perception? You can sense the hidden river directly, and yet you're still lost?"
"There's nothing I can do. There are too many hidden rivers here. As soon as I open my water vein sense, my mind is instantly filled with densely packed rivers, like picking out a strand of hair from a pile."
"Can't you draw a map?"
"This is really difficult. This isn't the surface; the underground is completely three-dimensional. Have you seen Castel's network map? That's a straight path. This is at least a hundred times more complex!"
Tusius had indeed seen Castel's webpath, but strictly speaking, it was not a "picture" but more like a three-dimensional model.
The layers of Castel's underground network of tunnels were intertwined like a bunch of twisted rubber bands. Anyway, Zeus felt dizzy after just one look.
If it is a winding underground water vein
Xius took a deep breath and felt that it was not so incomprehensible that Nini was lost.
Moreover, underground waterways are extremely difficult to explore. Cave diving is one of the most dangerous diving sports on the blue planet, with an alarmingly high mortality rate.
It now seems that even for an aquatic species like the Banshees, it is extremely difficult to explore underwater caves.
"Be careful, don't die down there."
"I won't die, don't worry. If I really get lost in the cave, I'll just stop right where I am and dig my way up through the mud and rocks. I'll eventually get out."
Xius blinked, feeling that this seemed a little familiar.
After thinking about it, he offered advice based on past experience: "Then be careful not to dig into the lava, or bring a bucket of water and pour it on the lava if you encounter it."
Nini: "???"
Duchy of Tis.
Although the war with the Empire has officially begun, Isabella did not go to the front line in person. She stayed in Blood Harbor most of the time.
Isabella was actually very interested in commanding battles and was very good at it, but she was the ruler of the entire principality after all. Although it looked great for her to personally charge into battle, it would not help the battle as much as coordinating the logistics and sending more weapons.
But today, she came to the battlefield.
Galahad followed Isabella, and the two of them were now standing on a high ground next to the battlefield.
Looking at the queen in front of him, Galahad tightened his grip on the hilt of the sword.
According to the original plan, he should have died by now.
The Queen informed him of his mission at the very beginning - to sacrifice himself at the right time as a sacrifice for the Queen's resurrection, allowing Isabella to return to the world.
Galahad had been looking forward to that day. In his mind, His Majesty should have unified the entire continent, completely overthrown the Church, and all he could see was the territory of the empire.
Then he would have no regrets and could face death with ease, sacrificing his life in the name of loyalty.
But, all this started to go astray at some point.
bite!
With a crisp sound, Galahad unsheathed the sword in his hand and cut a feather arrow shot at the queen into two halves.
The sword tip split the metal arrowhead, but the blade was not damaged at all. Galahad shook his wrist lightly, and the sharp cold light shattered the morning mist.
What a fine sword, thought Galahad.
The sword is called Morning Star. Morning Star Twenty-Three.
The material used for the long sword is extremely good. It is said that it is a furnace of steel left over from the casting of the star furnace. It has undergone thousands of forgings to become this sword.
Thanks to the advancement of materials science and forging technology, this sword is world-class in terms of strength, toughness and sharpness.
It can be said to be Castell's highest technological achievement, the jewel in the crown of industry, and the best sword in the world.
Galahad loved it very much and called it the Morning Star.
As for the twenty-three, it was because that furnace of steel produced more than seven hundred Morning Stars, and Galahad was now using the twenty-third one.
Galahad loved and hated this. What he loved was that he didn't have to worry about them breaking down. More than 700 of them were enough for him to use until the end of the world. And even if they were all used up, Castel could move another production line and start working, and he could have another 700 in the afternoon.
What I hate is that there are too many jewels in the crown of industry. When you introduce your sword to others and you have 677 spare ones, it is difficult to say that this is the best sword in the world.
It is said to be the best sword in the world, but it always feels weird.
In short, Galahad called the Morning Star a legendary sword, as is now popular, which is in line with reality.
After all, it is generally recognized that there are many legendary beings in Castel.
Sheathing Morning Star Twenty-Three, Galahad glanced at the scouts fleeing rapidly in the distance.
He casually took an object from his back.
Compared to Morning Star Twenty-Three, this thing is not as legendary.
This is an ordinary Gatling gun.
