MTL - Hidden Corner-Chapter 604 Study Four

 Chapter 604 604 Study 4

Outside the Black Castle, in a remote forest farm, there is a square courtyard made of black rocks.

Li Chengyi carefully used stones coated with griffon stone powder to build a special model that looked like a rhombus but had an extremely complex structural network inside.

 After thousands of repeated tests, he finally reproduced the special structure inside the Griffin Heart.

 This should be the key to generating electricity in the heart of the griffon.

“What a wonderful structure.” Li Chengyi finally glued a stone block inside the rhombus, then stepped back and looked at this special structure that was not symmetrical but gave people an incomparable sense of harmony.

It is this structure that forcibly increases the charge generated by friction when it is transferred.

 Snowflakes fall from the sky and scatter on the surrounding ground, landing on the surface of this wonderful structure.

But the strange thing is that just by falling on it, the snowflakes start to melt spontaneously as if they have encountered heat.

 It is as if this structure itself can generate a small electric current.

“Watch this place carefully, don’t allow anyone to get close.” Li Chengyi ordered, turned around and walked quickly towards the Black Castle.

“In addition, the barbarian team we found, a total of five barbarians, is generally about two and a half meters tall, and suffers from severe night blindness, which is obviously caused by a single diet.”

 After all, these require money, manpower and material resources, and cannot be covered up.

 Suddenly outside the courtyard, a Black Fort guard who was delivering the order shouted loudly.

Li Chengyi stretched out his hand and gently touched the surface of this diamond-shaped structure.

“Without the sword furnace, I would not have been able to discover this wonderful structure. The natural amplification structure, no. This is not an amplification, but the generation of a tiny current out of nothing. ’

 Although their IQs are not very high, their vitality is extremely strong.

The blue electric arc crackled, quickly grew in size and thickness, and then filled into the interior of the rhombus structure, passing back and forth along the extremely complex network.

Li Chengyi frowned slightly.

 The two sides killed and plundered each other, and had entered into an irresolvable blood feud.

 The stone coated with griffon stone powder suddenly had a tiny arc on its surface.

"According to the latest news, adventurers and herb collectors accidentally discovered huge footprints left by the barbarians near Green Screen Town near the Barbarian Plains. After offering a reward for the investigation, Knight Milton also led a team to investigate. , and found that a small group of barbarians began to operate near the periphery of our territory. "

 The flames are gradually spreading from the inside of the previous sword furnace to wrapping the entire sword furnace.

 The knight Milton on the side added.

Had it not been for fear of explosion, he should have placed the test site inside the Black Castle, which would have been safer.

 An arc of electricity as thick as a thumb struck hard from the other side of the rhombus and hit the snow, leaving a scorch mark.

 “Powerful increase!” Li Chengyi’s face showed a hint of joy.

  It should be about the barbarians. For the Sola Empire, the barbarians have been the feud of the entire empire for thousands of years.

 There is no separation between electromagnetism and electromagnetism. He felt that he should start his research from the direction of magnetic field.

 This made Li Chengyi couldn't help but take another look at her.

 Hurry back to Black Castle.

 Not long.

Those snow barbarians are similar to humans, but are often much taller in size. They are extremely strong and have huge brute strength.

 Click!

“The old lady and Lord Buck invite you to go to the conference hall to discuss.”

“Mother, everyone, just tell me the news about the barbarians. I have some experiments to do later.”

 In a few years, when the barbarians were short of food and tools, they would come to attack and plunder the Sola Empire.

 The flame of the sword furnace in his consciousness became more powerful as he understood new parts of the world.

 When the flames completely fill the Yuan Shen Sword Palace, it is the final moment when he can ignite the divine fire.

Melissa is still sitting in her seat, with a slight soft smile on her face. She seems to be in a good mood recently, and even if the barbarians bring bad news at this time, she is not affected.

 “My Lord Baron.”

 With the transfer process, the intensity of the current is also increasing rapidly.

 In the conference hall, Melissa and Old Buck had arrived in advance, and Milton was standing beside them. There were also two territorial administrative officers, one a tax officer and the other a legal officer.

"It's my lord." Buck, the old manager, was recovering from his illness and was in high spirits. He bowed and spoke.

 The last Baron Okla and the previous old Baron both died fighting against the barbarians.

 Then, rub it slightly.

 Saw him come in. Everyone bowed slightly together.

Okcraland is one of them.

He did not hide his yearning for the mage, nor did he hide the various messy experiments he conducted.

‘Next, we need to study why this structure can produce such a huge current increase? ’

"Yes, I have asked Green Screen Town to urgently build five scattered sentry towers, hoping to detect the traces of the barbarians in advance. According to the experience of previous years, once the barbarians start investigating, they may launch plundering attacks at any time. They attacked The target is very clear, no need to guess, it must be Green Screen Town. "Old Buck has experienced many wars as the previous Baron of Okla and knows the barbarians quite well.

“How many troops are generally needed to resist?” Li Chengyi became slightly interested.

 For him who needs to understand the world knowledge, how a new race originates, develops, reproduces, and even expands civilization is also a very interesting topic.

"As usual, one to two hundred heavy shield soldiers are enough, and long-range crossbowmen are used for long-range attacks." Old Buck replied.

 “Can you estimate the time?” Li Chengyi asked.     “I can’t, I can only stick to it.”

“Can’t we take the initiative to attack?” Li Chengyi said.

"The strength of these barbarians is often more than twice that of our ordinary soldiers. If we take the initiative to attack, I'm afraid there will be heavy casualties." The old manager hesitated.

Although he didn't want to undermine the young baron's confidence, the truth still had to be told.

"Standing firm is the best tactic, sir. I have participated in battles against barbarians before. Barbarians are divided into ordinary soldiers, barbarian warriors, barbarian mages, and barbarian kings. A tribe will at least have such a complete organization. And they move quickly. They are all very fast and have amazing endurance. Almost all the old, weak, sick and disabled are dead, and the rest are all in their prime," Milton suggested euphemistically.

 “Is that so? Okay, it’s a very interesting race.” Li Chengyi touched his chin.

"How many soldiers and knights are there in the territory now?" He turned to Milton and asked.

 “Well” Milton was confused by the question. This person doesn't even know how many troops he has under his command?

 The number of soldiers is unknown, but the knights should know it, right? ?

 Most of the soldiers in this era were ordinary farmers who were recruited temporarily during wartime, so it was normal to not know.

 But there are only a handful of knights, only a few in total.

"Including me, there are three people in total, and they were all recruited later." Milton replied helplessly. "As for soldiers, there are currently 150 full-time soldiers, mainly used to maintain the patrol territory. In addition, to deal with the war, at least 500 people need to be recruited, which requires a large amount of military food and money expenses."

 Finance is mainly in the hands of Old Buck. Having said this, he looked at Old Buck.

 The latter shook his head helplessly.

“In this case, we have to give priority to ensuring the expenditure of soldiers needed for the barbarian war. My lord, you may not be able to support your subsequent experimental arrangements.” He looked at Li Chengyi.

"It doesn't matter, you just do it. In addition, when you find barbarians, notify me in time. I want to join the war." Li Chengyi said with a smile.

　　　　???”

Several people were stunned.

How old are you? About to join the war! ?

 “No, war is not a child’s play!” Melissa’s original expression suddenly changed and she stood up suddenly.

“Don’t worry, I’m just watching the battle and won’t go up.” Li Chengyi said with a smile.

 He seemed to be in a good mood, which the others couldn't understand.

"There is also news that the White Tower has found the body of Master Teague and the body of the gryphon that disappeared in the forest last time. They have sent a special team of mages who claim to be able to restore traces of death and injuries to find the real culprit." Old Buck spoke up.

"Really? That's great." Li Chengyi smiled again, "There are such vicious thugs near my territory, which makes me worry day and night."

 Old Buck looked at him deeply.

"There are rumors spreading that they suspect that everything is done by elves, so please be careful when dealing with it."

 “Elf??”

Melissa whispered softly, and her expression suddenly changed.

 Elves once launched an unprecedented race war with humans, and both sides killed tens of millions of enemies.

 In the end, in this battle for supremacy, the elves were completely defeated due to the internal corruption of the ruling class, the high elves.

  They are a group of people who have an incomparable understanding of magic. The former high elf mages were born with unparalleled mage talents.

 That's why Melissa had such a big reaction when she heard about elves.

If the elves make a comeback, the harm will be far greater than that of the barbarians.

 “Elf?” Li Chengyi became more and more happy.

  It is another new ethnic group, which brings with it a massive history of development and civilization. Their bodies themselves are a living history of evolution.

 This allowed him to gain new insights into the world.

　　Puff, puff.

At this moment, an owl with pure white feathers suddenly flew past the window of the Black Castle.

The owl spread its wings and glided, landing gently on the edge of the window, tilting its head to comb its feathers. It seemed like it was just an ordinary bird passing by by chance.

Li Chengyi suddenly felt something at this moment and turned his head to look at it.

"A new owl that I haven't seen before" He narrowed his eyes and stared at the other person.

“Isn’t this just an ordinary owl?” Milton was a little puzzled.

"Have you ever seen an owl that is active during the day? And" Li Chengyi said with a smile, "it has six toes, I am very interested."

 “What!?” Milton was stunned.

 Suddenly, his eyes were dazzled, and he actually lost sight of his lord.

Phew!

　　A rapid whistling sound exploded.

Li Chengyi appeared in front of the window in the blink of an eye. He pulled out the heavy sword from his waist and struck the white owl with a slash.

　　Bang!

This poor big bird opened its mouth and was about to speak and reveal its identity, but it was already too late.

The powerful body, which is three times stronger than ordinary birds, was unable to resist Li Chengyi's strange strength. He was hit in the head on the spot and fainted.

 Poof.

 It was grabbed by the neck and lifted up. In his last consciousness, he only saw Li Chengyi's eyes with a strong interest in anatomy.

'No! ’ It was completely plunged into darkness.
