Vol 5 Chapter 35: Small civilians in the big age
Ding, the crisp sound passed into Andy's ear, let him wake up from the beautiful dream about the future, and saw a reduced version of the magic steam train appeared in front of his eyes.
It is iron gray in whole body, close to two people tall, and only has a long carriage. There are two railroad tracks on the ground, but there is no steam coming out of the front of the car. Instead, it looks like it has antennas, and it has two large antennas and mid-air. The erected black wires are very strange.
"Tram ..." Andy stared at this monster-like thing, full of novelty and longing, and almost forgot to get in the car.
It is said that this tram does not require the stimulation of mental force or will. It only needs to press or twist the corresponding switch. Even ordinary people can drive. It is extremely convenient. However, there are not many wide streets that can be laid on the track in Lentat City. It cannot be popularized and can only be fixed on a few lines-most streets need to settle the buildings on both sides by one meter, which involves the overall planning of the city. This is an unimaginable task for the current cabinet and city hall, so They would rather promote larger, bulkier and noisier public transport vehicles.
Ding, heard that the tram door was about to close. Andy was all excited, and a stride stepped up. Today is the first day of the Brooklyn School. If you are late, you will lose your bright future. !!
Crackled, the tram doors closed, and Andy patted his chest gratefully, relaxed, and daydreaming again on his face.
Before I was an adult, I was already doing physical work for the alchemy workshop, but I only got a monthly salary just to maintain my living. There is a gap between heaven and the abyss from the dream of magic radio and magic crystal lamp. The fate of my father and mother was exhausted all my life to live. I lived in a place no better than the slums. I ate cheap and poor quality food, and married and gave birth to children.
When thinking of this foreseeable state of no change and the dawn of a stagnant state, Andy often feels depressed and depressed. If before, I do n’t know how wonderful the world is, then I can accept this life numbly, but now, I was exposed to the outside world from the magic radio, opened my eyes, and had a lot of extravagant hopes and dreams. How could I be willing to sink forever?
More than a year ago, they and Martin and William quietly checked their spiritual talents and found that they are extremely weak. If there is a wealth of property support, there may be hope to become a magic apprentice. Unfortunately, for themselves and others, this It was impossible, so I entered the alchemy in pain and despair, doing physical labor day after day, and I couldn't see the hope of future changes.
Until a few months ago, I learned from the magic radio that the general school and Brufley School were about to be established, and I got rid of my numb mentality and regained my motivation. Inside, the general school needs some property support. He didn't have the heart to exploit his parents, so he didn't consider it.
But Bruffley School is so close to itself. If you can graduate from it, you do n’t have to worry about finding a job. Every alchemist will rush to become a true alchemist, just like the dwarves you meet. Not only is he well paid, he can drink alcohol and eat meat every day, and he can buy magic radio in two or three years. He has a high status, respected, and hopes to be gradually promoted. He may be an alchemy supervisor in the future. It is a position that can only be held by real arcanists and magicians.
After being frustrated, the dream of becoming a magician was shattered by the cruel reality. Andy lowered his luxury expectations, and had a dream closer to life and more suitable for himself, and put in hard work for it.
"If you dare not dream about the future, what is the difference between living and dying?" Thinking back here, Andy clenched his fists, proud of his struggles over the past few months, and finally passed the assessment and became A member of the Brooklyn School!
A society in a rising period, an era of great changes, even civilians are full of vitality.
"... The Prime Minister of the Holm Kingdom Russell announced the establishment of a special police station to replace the past sheriff system. He said that it would effectively combat crime and give citizens of the Holm Kingdom a safer and more reliable life. At the same time, He also said that in order to deal with the possible presence of high-level knights in the criminals, the dark knights who could not control their own desire to kill, etc., some knights would be selected from the Order of the Knights of the Knights of the Holy Cross and the Knights of the Holy Cross to serve as officers of the police at all levels, Police are uniformly equipped with blast guns invented by dwarves. "
A news broadcast from Holm Radio came from the front of the tram. Each tram and public transport vehicle is equipped with a similar magic radio to allow passengers to learn about various information while hurrying. Along with this change in the rhythm of life, channels such as Voice of Mystery also added early morning replays.
"Burst gun?" In the tram, many passengers repeated the content on the radio in doubt, never heard of such a thing. Is it a spear that can cause an explosion?
Andy smiled smugly, you are not sure, I know quite well, because it was made by the alchemy workshop where I worked before, it was invented by the dwarves there, and received the attention and improvement of His Excellency Evans!
They started from a high-pressure steam rifle, combined with various advanced alchemy explosives and simplified magic formations. After several years of trials, they finally produced a burst gun that fired projectiles with alchemy explosives, as long as there were enough bullets filled with alchemy explosives. With abundant physical strength, even ordinary people can use it, and the power of each shot is close to that of a formal knight.
Of course, this kind of initial burst gun can't deal with the official knight, because the reaction speed of the gunman can't keep up, and after playing the pre-loaded bullets, it takes time to change the ammunition. Unless it is a row gun, it is expected to strike. Injury official knight.
Alas, it is no problem to deal with high-level Knight attendants.
In addition, there are medium and high-level burst guns with increased barrel magic patterns. They have the ability to lock and higher bullet power. They are alchemy items equivalent to magic longbow. For the time being, they can only be used by magic apprentices and high-level knight servants. , And after a few rounds will be tired, so before simplifying, mainly for low-level knights.
Andy heard that His Excellency Evans has also developed an electromagnetic gun equivalent to the hit of a high-level magician or a sky knight, firing projectiles with electromagnetic force, generating horrible speed and lethality. He named this electromagnetic gun as "Gauss rifle", unfortunately, this is a high-level alchemy item. Only a magician who knows the semi-substantial world or a fifth-level knight close to the sky knight can use it once.
According to His Excellency Evans, the "Gauss rifle" may be used by low-level knights in the future, but only if breakthrough research in superconducting materials is made, which can be at least fifty years.
"By that time, the kingdom can organize a huge knight group. Official knights use Gauss rifles, knights and ordinary soldiers use medium-to-high-level blast guns. The power generated by a round of salvo is probably only high-level magicians or sky knights can counteract. Andy dreamed of the scene, shaking with excitement.
In the future, I must enter the workshop to make alchemy rifles!
"... The proposals on the postman and post are under intense discussion in the aristocratic house. Some members of the parliament think that this is worthless and will not be used at all, because ordinary citizens do not have many friends from far away, and they can be completed by the caravan. Nobles who have their own coachman, servants, and subordinates do not even need ... "
Andy didn't know about the postal matter, but in the "Voice of Mystery", it was repeatedly propagated that it would shorten the distance between people, make relatives and friends in the distance no longer alienated, and understand more through letters. Many strange friends are a very wonderful experience, so he also supports it, whispering quietly: "These noble members are never considered for civilians, alas, except for a few good noble masters."
Ding Ding, "Get to the 'Brufley' school ahead."
Hearing the high voice of the lady in front, Andy's body was tense and tight, and she felt that the hairs on her skin had all stood up. Along the front line, she got out of the exit, and passed the five crewmen in her hand while passing the flight attendant. New copper coins were dropped into the iron box in front of her.
Although five new copper coins are one-fifth of a day's work for Andy, he finds trams worth the money.
And he didn't have time to think about the price, standing on the concrete pavement and looking at the bright buildings in front of him, his heart was very excited.
The "Buffle" school bathed in the sun was plated with a golden color, giving a sacred and beautiful feeling, leaving Andy an indelible impression, like a moaning authentic:
"Brufelle, my dream, I come!"
开始 Beginning today, I will enter a new life, shining a life of hope!
Uh ...
内 In the "Atomic Universe", Lucien and Natasha are standing opposite each other.
"Bring the shield of truth, I'm not worried about your attack, I'm only worried about your defense." Natasha was rare and solemn, "In fact, it is best to bring the sword of truth."
Balusian understood Natasha's concerns and worries, and nodded softly, "What about you?"
"I have Mother-in-law of Hathaway, there is the core of the defense of Nexer Palace, there is your half plane, there is pale justice, what else is there to be afraid of?" Natasha laughed, not frowning like an ordinary lady .
Hey, Hiroshima Come up with a star-shaped crown: "The crown of thorns, lend it to you."
"When did you borrow it?" Natasha asked with a wide-open eyes.
"When you guessed that you would give me the shield of truth and the sword of truth, it would not be of much use to me." Lucian smiled and put the crown on Natasha's head.
The other two legendary items were borrowed by Klaus and Erica respectively.
Natasha smiled brightly, but sighed slightly: "Unfortunately, I still can't advance the legend, otherwise I can go with you."
She is very sensible, knowing that her own entry without legendary strength will only drag Lucian.
"You have only been promoted to the Golden Knight for a year. How can it be so fast? Even if you have mastered the sword that killed Kotonia, it will take at least several years to have hope. This is normal." Rub Natasha's hair.
Natasha nodded: "The cruel reality of not being able to venture with you is full of motivation, and I will continue to work hard."
After speaking, she hugged Lucian, kissed deeply for a few minutes, and finally joked slightly, "If you are trapped, wait for me to become a legend to save you."
不过 "However, I believe you will be able to come back smoothly."
Then Lucien set off with five unprecedented legendary items. (To be continued [this text is provided by the breaking dawn update group @ 为 嗨 而 生]. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (m) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.
