Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

Not far from the border between the West Bay Federation and the Sunri Republic, Hardy was sitting comfortably in a tent with a table filled with fruits and desserts. But there was construction going on outside, and there were many disheveled people in shackles, who looked like they were slaves. Every few dozen meters stood a soldier with a whip in his hand, who was probably a supervisor. There are also people who work without shackles. These people are free people. They work for nobles and wealthy merchants to support their families.

The curtain of the tent was opened, and it was the leader of the army who came in. Hardy was very happy when he saw him for the first time:

"Oh, you're back. How's the battle going? Is the great mage willing to come to our side?"

"Well, Lord Hardy, we are defeated."

After the leader finished speaking, Hardy noticed his disgraced look, so he asked: "Is it that all the treasures failed to bribe the great mage? But you are in such a mess, the magic crystal shield I gave you should be enough. Let you and most of the people escape back."

The leader said tremblingly: "Master Hardy, I...we only have about 300 people back, the magic crystal...shield is also broken, yes...there is no great magician on the other side."

"Ah?! Tell me exactly what happened," Hardy roared.

"The opponent has a very strange and powerful weapon. Well, it looks like an iron pipe. It makes a loud noise and spits out fire. There are thin iron pipes for ordinary soldiers to use, and thick iron pipes. Requires 3 people to use it”

"An iron pipe that spits out fire?"

"Yes, sir, every time the fire is emitted, the energy of the magic crystal shield drops a lot. They attack from a long distance, and we can't get close at all."

"Since when did this kind of thing exist in the Dips Kingdom? It seems like we need to send spies to check it out."

"Sir Hardy, they are not called the Kingdom of Dips, what are they called the Republic of Sunshine?"

"What the hell, no matter what it is, the Federation has to decide on that piece of land anyway. Immediately arrange for spies to sneak into their city to see what kind of weapon it is."

"Yes, Lord Hardy"

.........

There were two people in very shabby clothes wandering around the border, and then slowly walked into the territory after the patrols passed by. After the two felt safe, they accelerated their march, but they did not miss any detail around them. When they arrived Near Liming City, the two of them observed the surroundings for two or three days and found that everyone who went out had a card in their hands when they came back, which they wanted to show to the city defenders.

The original plan of sneaking in as a beggar seemed to be unworkable, because in the Sunri Republic, almost all the people absorbed were refugees brought back by Kanter. These two people are not stupid enough to call themselves refugees, because in this whole hellish place, there are no refugees who can survive alone.

They decided to attack people who were out in the morning, snatch the cards from their hands, and then put on their clothes and sneak in.

The next day, the two men attacked two lone farmers, changed into their clothes, and prepared to enter Liming City in the evening.

"Please show me your ID card"

The police are responsible for screening here. Rhett invented the ID card after the earth. It is made of steel, but the texture on it is very detailed. When it is reflected, it will show a unique pattern. This is also one of the anti-counterfeiting measures. It's just that there is no photo on the ID card, because Red hasn't developed a camera yet. The ID card only has the most basic name, gender and date of birth.

"Officer, here"

Then the police officer responsible for the inspection picked it up and looked at it from different angles and said:

"Well, next one"

After a long time, it was finally the turn of those two people.

"Please show me your ID card"

He imitated the people before him and said, "Officer, please look."

Since there was no title for police in the continent of Emera before, these two words combined were particularly awkward for those who were just starting to speak. This also aroused the suspicion of the police officer. He looked up and looked at the person carefully, but after finding that the ID card was correct, he said: "Next person."

The next person was the same as the previous one. The police officer couldn't explain the word clearly. After they all left, the police officer in charge said to the policeman next to him: "Looking at them, I feel something is wrong."

After the two spies successfully entered Liming City, they began to do intelligence work. They first wanted to use the money on clothes to book a room, but after wandering around Liming City for a long time, they did not find a tavern that could accommodate people. Because there are no outsiders in Dawn City, the only trade is done by Kanter. There are no taverns for outsiders to live in Dawn City, so locals will arrange houses.

If there is no tavern to live in, there is no tavern to live in. At worst, they will sleep on the street, so after the two of them had eaten and drank enough, they found a street to sleep in.

"Hey, wake up, wake up"

The two felt someone pushing them in their sleep. When they opened their eyes, they found several people in black clothes. Maybe their brains were shut down just after they woke up. After a while, they remembered that these were the policemen they had seen before. , so he stood up and said angrily:

"Police officer, what's the matter?"

Originally I just received a report that a suspicious person was looking for a hotel, and my colleagues told me that there was a suspicious person coming into the city today and I needed to pay close attention to it. Then I just patrolled at night as usual, but I found someone sleeping on the street, and then woke up and called me Mr. Police Officer? What is this called?

"Please, you two, come with us."

"Police officer, what have we done?"

"It's nothing. I just received a report from someone that there was a suspicious person. I saw you two sleeping on the street, which is quite suspicious."

One of the spies thought that the policeman, like the urban management officials, was extorting money from him, so he took out the money from his pocket with a smile on his face and said, "Police officer, please be careful."

The surrounding police officers also looked smiling, and the spy thought he had successfully saved the day. But the next words made him confused.

"Catch him!"

"Eh? Why, Mr. Police Officer, I didn't do anything wrong."

"If you have anything to say, explain it to the bureau and take it away!"

Inside the police station.

"Tell me, what's your real name?"

"Didn't it say on my card, my name is Dave?"

"That's called an ID card. Come on, tell me. Your companions have all told you, who arranged for you to come?"

Did that guy explain everything? Damn it! I didn't expect him to be so greedy for life and afraid of death.

"Hurry up and explain your purpose. If you don't say anything and he does all the talking, then you will be of no use at all."

"Okay, okay, I said, I said, my name is Sam, we were sent here by Master Hardy..."

The same drama was playing out on the other side, but this one was much smarter than the other one, and he refused to say anything until the results of Sam's interrogation were handed over to this side.

"Speak quickly, your companion Sam has already confessed that it was Hardy from the West Bay Federation who asked you to come."

"That idiot!"
