In the office, she saw Roland Wimbledon again, who was writing something, presumably in government affairs.At this time, the sun was already slanting to the west, and the sky was stained with gold.Through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, the long shadow left in front of the table.

It was not until the prince put down his quill pen that the ashes began to say, "I won."

"Indeed, you won."They just nod their heads to each other.

Such a cheerful attitude made her a little surprised, I thought Roland was still trying to argue, I did not expect him to agree with this result.

“But I admit that you have the ability to fight against the divine chasing army.”She said, "The God's punishment army is not without a knife, their strength and body are close to me, but they lack the mind and thinking ability - this is why I can cope with three at the same time."If the knight's opponents are the punishment army according to the previous comparison, I think they will only rush up from the front.So the Tattoo army could not be sent alone like the judgmental army, and if I am not mistaken, the church needs to send someone to lead them to fight.”

“Thank you,” Roland laughed."This information is important."

“What’s the new weapon in the Knight’s Hand?”

“Even flaming guns,” he said, “in the future my soldiers will use them, and even unarmed farmers will be able to defeat a trained judge with a musket.”

Ash hesitated, “Can you give me a gun?”

"Unless you join the League of Witches," Roland said, "after all, such things are very rare."

The other side's refusal was expected, and she exhaled, "I must meet with Tilly as soon as possible, and tomorrow morning, I will leave the border town."If you can't survive, you can move to the fjord."

He nodded, "You too, don't forget to tell my dear sister about this news, there is a place for witches to live in the west of the Greys."

“...” Ashes was silent for a moment, “I will consider it.”

As she was about to leave the office, the prince stopped her, "Wait, I have a gift for you, just behind the door."

The gift?

She froze and turned around, only to see a large long sword placed at the door—she had not noticed it when she came in because she was obscured by the door.

"Your sword is no longer available, and I have let Anna cut it for you, not a poor pig's sword, but pure steel."

Indeed, it is uniform in the whole body, reflecting the metallic luster of orange red in the sunset.She stepped forward, gently touched the sword, you can see the thickness of the sword is very uniform, the blade side of the quenching traces, there is no doubt that this is a very good quality weapon.The only thing that puzzles the ash is its shape is its shape, which has only a one-sided blade compared to a double-sided blade, and on the other side it is about a small thumb wide, no sharp sword, and a trapezoidal shape of the head.The most strange is the front of the sword, in addition to engraving a strange line, the unblade side also has a round bulge, and is painted golden, very eye-catching.

Although she did not want to admit her love, she still couldn't resist the impulse and reached out and raised it.

“Why does it look so...strange?”

"Because this is no ordinary weapon," laughed Roland, "it is called the Ashes Messenger."It's a legendary object compared to your previous whiteboard sword."

“...” Ash decided not to delve into the inexplicable words in the other person’s mouth, “If so, I took it.”I'll give you a gift as a gift."

“Oh?What is it?”The prince was curious.

She didn’t answer and left the room.

****************************************************************************************

Early the next morning, Roland pushed the door open and saw the nightingler sitting at his desk with a fish.

“They are gone.”

“Are they both gone?”

"Yes," she answered idly, "it was on her way before dawn, and Wendy was going to give her a ride."

Roland could not help feeling that Wendy was concerned about any of her sisters, not to mention the witch who had saved her from harm and indirectly helped her escape from the monastery.He thought Wendy would follow the ashes, but she did not expect her to refuse the invitation first.

In the end, the witch alliance was still twelve, which made Roland full of energy.

“Do you think they’ll really tell the news here to the witch on the other side of the sea?”

"Perhaps, perhaps not," he said, leaning back in his chair, growing his breath, "but when they encounter unsolvent difficulties, they will always think of the border town."

With his eyes closed, Roland looked through his mind at the memories that belonged to the Four Princes.

Tilly was not very close to him, or she kept a certain distance from everyone, even Wimbledon III.In addition to her good face and talent that she has shown since childhood, she has not left much information about her in her mind.

The five princesses began to secretly hide the witch, and when they planned to go to the fjord to develop, Roland did not know.But in any case, she is a natural ally to fight for – after all, confrontation with the church is a common goal for both.

As for sending Tsah to spread the gossip, the witch awakening is a random event, and Tilly cannot take all the witches, especially after the organization of the evacuation, the newly awakened witch will be more eager to find a place to settle.

Since he knows the information of the God Penalty Army, what he wants to do next is undoubtedly to expand the scale of double acid production.

More efficient gunpowder and explosives can not be separated from nitric acid and sulfuric acid, the first army to change the wheel rifle, with the barrel with the rifle with the fixed bullet, the shooting accuracy will be greatly improved, so the significance of training becomes particularly important - in the era of no barrage suppression, the ejaculation of the veterans can withstand ten indiscriminate shooting of the new recruits.The bullets that must be consumed at that time will be an amazing number.

Moreover, black gunpowder will remain in the barrel, clogging the flux, reducing the service life of the barrel, and only the use of smokeless gunpowder can solve this problem.Early smoke-free gunpowder is actually nitrification fiber, and later is a mixture of nitroglycerin and nitrofiber.Now light is used to soak the nitric acid of the sealing firewood is quite insufficient, not to mention the hair * shot all replaced with tampon.

After all, the laboratory system can only be produced on a small scale, and if you want to meet the needs of an army, the industrial production mode is necessary.Unfortunately, in the face of a completely unfamiliar chemical industry, Roland could not think of a good solution for a while.

Education cannot be put down.Not only the popularization of primary cultural knowledge, ideological transformation also needs to be implemented as soon as possible.The indigenous people have been tested by the Devil's Month, and with the propaganda of the First Army, they have a high degree of recognition for the witch community, but the outsiders still accept the concept instilled in the church.At present, the foreign population of border towns has surged, especially the serfs - they are still living in wooden sheds on the Redwater River, which is considered to be the outer city of the town, but once promoted to free people, they will inevitably gradually move into the city, and then it will be too late to correct the concept.

It is necessary to come up with a soft and silent method of transformation, which at the same time can make it easy for the general public to accept.

...

So thinking about it for a while, he opened his eyes, suddenly found that the nightingale was watching himself, and in the instant, she subconsciously turned her head.

"Ah . . . yes, I forgot to tell you one thing," said the witch, looking out of the window, "wenty let me tell you a word."

“What?”Roland asked.

"She said, thank you."(Unfinished.)
