Gold is Justice

"(Kindred language) These people really don't know that they are dying."

"(Kindred Language) What can I do? They are really the most ordinary ordinary people, they have no fighting power at all, and after they go to the battlefield, they can only become fans."

"(Fairy language) Human beings are really a group of easily emotional creatures~~~"

"(Fairy language) That's right, human beings are always bluffing like this, they seem to be interested in everything, and they are very impulsive when doing things. But maybe this is where human beings are different from us."

Amidst the whispers all around, Ariel came forward to shake hands with these workers one by one with tears in her eyes.

After everyone shook hands, the mayor returned to his seat, nodded slightly, and stretched out his hand to press a drawing on the table——

"Everyone! I am very grateful to you all for being willing to stand by my side at this time. Your trust, and your willingness to accompany me on the journey, I will never forget Ariel Garcia."

"I know that you must have come here with the intention of dying... After all, I am just like you, an ordinary person without any fighting ability. Here, in this guild hall, you, including me, Not to mention facing the charge of the knights, even any one of the vampires, elves, and adventurers here can deal the heaviest blow to ordinary people like us."

The excitement of the workers gradually calmed down. Even though Ariel was saying something that seemed to be "frustrated", their eyes were extremely calm, and there was no more sense of fear because of this.

"However, since I am willing to invite you to come, it does not mean that I want you to be human sandbags or dead soldiers. We want to create a better new life, we want to make our Pelican City more prosperous, and make our city more prosperous. Everyone here can live and work in peace, then we will survive ... survive and continue to build this city. Not die in the face of wave after wave of enemy attacks."

Ariel straightened up, and after glancing at the blueprint in her hand from the corner of her eyes, she turned to look at Tesla standing in the corner.

Tesla understood and turned around immediately.Even the other guild members left together and walked towards the back of the guild.

"I do know that you don't have much fighting ability. You can't climb the roof in one go, and you don't know how to use various weapons, and you don't even have the slightest affinity for magic elements. To be honest, just relying on 'ordinary people' like us to want to It is indeed impossible to fight against a heavily armored knight group. But... we have a very unique thing here! That is - the elemental machine."

As Ariel's voice fell, a creaking sound also began to come from the back door of the guild.

Immediately afterwards, the members of Song of the Mermaid began to hold or resist or push the ground, and took out some very strange-looking things from behind.

Ariel stretched out her hand and pointed to Tesla ahead.

And Tesla nodded, carrying the long thing in his hand that looked like a spear, but its shape was much more complicated than that of a spear, and walked in front of everyone.He put the "spear" on his shoulder in a posture similar to carrying it, holding the front end of the "spear" with one hand, and holding the middle of the "spear" with the other. In the rear position, a finger was inserted into a small hole under the "spear", and rested on a small crescent-shaped iron piece.

"Well, some of you may have seen it. After all, some of you are the workers who built this thing."

Tesla opened his mouth slowly, and after looking around with the "spear" in his hand, he put it down and continued to say——

"I also told you at the time that this thing is a new type of weapon developed by me from the weapon of Mr. Cheese, the 'gunner' of our guild, and two short guns. Perhaps it can be called ' Elemental guns'."

"You ordinary workers may not be very clear about it, but for adventurers, 'gunner' is actually not a rare occupation. After all, short guns are at best a kind of magic item, embedded with improved magic power crystals, Then every time it is activated, it actually uses the magic power in the gun to activate those special bullets. The principle of use is similar to that of magicians using their wands." "Compared with ordinary bows and arrows, short guns have simpler firing capabilities. However, the range is actually true. Compared with the traditional bow and arrow, it is not far behind, at most a distance of about [-] meters. Hitting a longer distance will either reduce the power or seriously deviate from the target. And the most important thing is that the traditional short spear is a magic tool. It is not suitable for mass production. After all, each short gun needs special enchantment by a magician, which is equivalent to a handicraft, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Because of this, the number of short guns will not be many, and the price Not cheap."

"The bullets inspired by the short gun are bullets made with a special process, and special patterns need to be engraved on them to match the magic enchantment inside the magic short gun. Therefore, even the most common bullets are very expensive. If you use those Bullets with special properties enchanted with magic power will be more expensive."

"It is simply impossible to use such an expensive thing on a large scale. Therefore, even if there is a gunman profession, it is not a very common profession in essence."

After some introductions, Tesla took out a steel ball that looked like it was made by a casting mold from his pocket, and he casually stuffed one of the steel balls into one of the long guns in his hand. In the gap, pull it up, then pick up the gun again, aiming at the window——

"However, the spear I improved, although it also pulls the trigger to fire bullets, but the internal structure is composed of elemental machines. The elemental machine does not require magic enchantment. Once it is formed, it can continue to operate as long as it provides magic power crystals. And The bullets fired do not require such complicated craftsmanship, and they can be mass-produced only by setting a model and pouring them. Therefore, this is a weapon that even ordinary people can use.”

The first thousand and 370 six chapters of the conspirators

After all, Tesla put away his gun, pushed open the gate of the guild, and walked outside to the street under the gaze of everyone, pointed the long gun in his hand at the sky and pulled the trigger.

There was only a loud bang, and everyone was staring at the muzzle of the long gun, but they could only see smoke and dust around the muzzle of the gun. It seemed that something was shot out just now?But the speed is too fast to see clearly.

The loud noise of course awakened the neighbors in the surrounding neighborhood, and the darkened windows lit up one after another, but Tesla didn't have time to talk to the neighbors, and returned to the guild, closed the door, and said— —

"We have produced almost 120 guns like this after a period of rush production. In addition to these guns, there are also these—"

Tesla put down the long gun, and then walked to a huge "long gun" that could only be dragged on the ground with a small trailer.He reached out and patted the "gun" whose "muzzle" was almost as big as his head, frowned slightly and said——

"These are actually failures. After my early attempts to miniaturize the element machine failed, I made this huge 'giant gun' that couldn't be carried around. There are three such 'giant guns', although Their general functions are not much different from the current miniaturized 'long guns', but it is really inconvenient to carry, and if it is to be used safely, a 'giant gun' needs at least three people to operate at the same time to be able to launch smoothly, so it is true. It's complicated."

"It's just that in order to fight against Baron Guangzhong's heavy knights, we must have such power."

At this point, Tesla finally finished what he wanted to say.

It can be seen that although his research during this period has achieved results, there is no particularly happy look on his face.

The reason is very simple. After all, although these things are nominally made with elemental mechanisms, but... can this thing really work?

Can these seemingly shoddy imitations and failures really be able to fight against those well-trained, even per capita adventurers, and heavy knights supported by the empire?

And even simpler, the Heavy Knights have more than 1000 people!But the total number of spears and giant guns before everyone is only 120.

120 Three pairs of thousands?

what!Any guy who knows a little bit of arithmetic knows whose side the advantage is.

And judging from Tesla's expression, even the assembler himself may not have much confidence in the true effect of these weapons.Of course there is no need to mention others.

Seeing that everyone on the scene fell silent looking at these "simple weapons", Ariel exhaled slowly and said——

"Now, I have disobeyed the order of the empire. Baron Guang Zhongguang will definitely come to Pelican City again soon after he gets the news. At that time, he will definitely use force, even at the expense of those of us who insist on restoring the production of the element factory. All of them were hanged on the elemental lamp."

"We need to protect our lives, and we also need to protect our future... Therefore, we must fight this battle. Moreover, we must destroy this heavy knight order in one go, so that they will never dare to fight again. Come here. Only in this way can we protect our future."

After Ariel finished speaking, One Eye, one of the elders of the blood clan, shook his head and said, "Miss Ariel, let's attack the Knights' camp in the dark. I think this method is safer."

Ariel exhaled slightly, and said: "In essence, my hope is to use fighting to facilitate negotiations. Therefore, I hope to cause major damage to the Knights in one go. I hope it is not a battle of expulsion, It's better to fight a war of annihilation."

"However, if you only rely on the friends of the Night Clan to carry out a sneak attack, you may be able to achieve some results at the beginning. But please don't forget that what we are facing is not an ordinary knight order, but is led by Baron Guang Zhongguang." Since he was able to use the priest to injure the cheese of our guild before, he will definitely think about how to defend against the night attack of your vampires. Therefore, I do not support only you to conduct a surprise attack."

Obviously, Cyclops couldn't take it anymore, he let out a long breath, and said, "Miss Ariel, I respect you very much. Among short-lived and weak creatures like human beings, you can be regarded as the most impressive I respect human beings. But to be honest... are you really sure that you want to use these so-called weapons that have been produced in a hurry to face an orthodox knight order? Are you sure? Are you crazy or joking?"

Ariel nodded seriously again: "I'm sure."

As she said that, she took out a map next to her and laid it on the table. She stretched out her hand and pointed on the map: "The outside of Pelican City is a plain, and the entire Pelican City has no dangerous places to defend. Therefore, we absolutely The battlefield cannot be set on this plain."

"But on the contrary, Tianhe City, where the Knights are stationed, is a mountainous area. The roads in that place are very narrow, and it is not very suitable for the Knights to carry out large-scale assault operations. In comparison, that place is more suitable Combat on foot... That is to say, you blood race will act together with us and the weapons in your hands."

"The reason why Baron Guangzhong arranged the knights stationed in Tianhe City does not mean that he has no tactical vision. On the contrary, it proves that he extremely despises us and thinks that the combat effectiveness of our Pelican City is completely ignorant. More likely, they Maybe they want to use this arrangement to lure us to attack, so as to destroy our city's combat effectiveness in one breath."

"Therefore, we need a well-arranged ambush, and the location needs to be set on the mountain road from Tianhe City. But no matter what, we can't let the cavalry regiment come to the great plain near Pelican City. Once those heavy The cavalry came to the Great Plains, which can be said to be a devastating blow to our Pelican City."

One-eyed stopped talking, and he and the copper hand next to him glanced at each other, obviously doubting and distrusting the decision-making of the human girl in front of him.

On the other side, Qiangwei from the Flower Fairy also flew over, circled around the guns, and said, "Then, shall we harass them?"

Ariel shook her head again: "The leader of the heavy cavalry regiment is not an ordinary person. The opponent is Paladin Guangzhongguang, the former president of the Light of Heaven Guild. Of course, this guild leader knows how to deal with it." You flower fairies, he also knows that there are flower fairies on our side, so he must have been prepared to deal with it. Didn’t I just say that? The use of those giant guns is very complicated and requires at least three people to cooperate. Given Due to the lack of manpower here, I hope that you, the flower fairies, can do it for the time being. Arrange these three giant guns to stand on the top of a nearby hill and shoot down. Even if the damage is not large, the sound is loud enough, and it may produce some damage. deterrent. You should be able to easily complete the collaboration, right?"

Qiangwei flew around the huge giant gun again, and said: "I don't understand your human war, but... if this is the result you want, then let's operate it. However, once this battle happens Given that this type of fighting is unprecedented, I can only try to keep my people calm and stop flying around."

Ariel looked at Qiangwei with gratitude in her eyes.

"Then, there is the aspect of maneuverability. Obviously, once the heavy cavalry regiment is under attack, they will definitely use their mobility to the best of their ability, rushing down the hillside. It is more likely to attack our ambush. Here It cannot be ruled out that they may divide into several groups and charge towards us. I want to say... this is really terrifying. The mobility and combat effectiveness of heavy cavalry far exceed our imagination, so we also need to have mobility on our side Just do it."

With that said, Ariel tapped the table lightly, and continued——

"In the workshop of our factory, there are already ten elemental vehicles in stock. I know that you have almost never ridden a horse, and you may not be able to match the speed of maneuvering. But everyone of the night clan, you usually use Elemental vehicles are used for cargo handling, so I hope that in this battle, you can also operate these elemental vehicles for support on the battlefield."

Speaking of the element car, Nuomi, who had been holding hands with her daughter before, tilted her head slightly.She squeezed through the crowd to look at the map, but Mochi seemed to think that it was a bit impolite for her mother to directly go up to look at the map in front of so many elders, so she stretched out her hand.

Ariel didn't say anything out of the ordinary, instead she smiled and said, "I know that Ms. Nuomi can be regarded as the leading driver of elemental vehicles among the blood race. What's the matter? Do you think this mountain road can drive?" Nuomi slightly wrinkled Frowning, those bright red eyes like her daughter's slowly swept across the foothills near Tianhe City, and after thinking for a while, she said: "We have also been to Tianhe City, that place is really difficult to drive, and the winding mountain roads And rugged."

"However, it's not impossible to operate."

Ariel's eyebrows were the same: "I knew it, you must have a way."

Nuomi nodded slightly, and continued: "We usually leave the car at night, drive to Tianhe City at full speed, unload the goods, and drive back before dawn. The roads near Tianhe City are indeed not very easy to walk. , so on some roads where there is really no way to pass, I will get out of the car, and then carry the element car and cargo up some cliffs, and then put the car down and continue driving.”

"So, if the attack time is set at night, in terms of mobility, I think the strength of our blood race combined with the speed of the elemental car should be able to do it."

At that moment, Ariel exhaled slightly, clapped her hands, and said with a smile: "If that's the case, I'm really grateful. Now that everything is arranged properly, let's discuss in detail how to attack." .”

Accompanied by the formulation of Ariel's big policy, all the people present nodded, reluctantly agreeing to the plan.

Everyone kept discussing, and constantly put forward their opinions on this night attack based on their own knowledge and experience.Where to use what kind of magic, where to deploy manpower, what kind of preparations should be made in advance, how to arrange food and other logistical things, etc., etc., are all on the table for discussion.

During this entire discussion, without everyone's awareness, Ariel silently chose the planner who had withdrawn from the specific details of the night attack, and other flower fairies, vampires, workers, etc. They, and even their own guild members, are constantly arguing and discussing, and gradually researched a specific plan.

It's not that she is modest, but that she knows how much stuff is in her stomach.

She has always been very clear that she is not an outstanding military talent. Rather than letting herself, a half-baked guy, show off in front of these daily blood-licking people or goblins, it is better to learn from others and try to know their thoughts. Then it's better to summarize.

In this way, this discussion continued until the second half of the night.Finally, a sneak attack by the workers with long guns that did not seem to be of any specific use was used to lure the knights out, and then the blood clan took advantage of the rugged mountain road to cover up and kill them in the dark, and then the flower elves blocked the knights At the same time, relying on the mobility of the elemental vehicles to carry out the annihilation battle as much as possible, the (harmonious) stage has already been released.

In order to avoid accidents, Ariel also kindly reminded everyone that they should set up a plan B and a plan C.And after the alternatives are finalized, everyone is considered to be done.

"Everyone, if it succeeds, then we will be free, at least we can sign a contract with the royal family, allowing Pelican City... and even the entire border province to obtain a high degree of autonomy!"

Ariel looked full of energy when she looked at the detailed plan——

"But if it fails, I will not ask you to fight to the death. I am ready to lead all of you to evacuate immediately. The evacuation location is the portal in the mine in the Eternal Sleeping Mountain Range."

Except for the workers and a few members of Mermaid Song, everyone here has seen the appearance of the portal.And after hearing Ariel mention the portal, the last doubt in everyone's mind "what if it fails?" disappeared.

"I asked my guild members to investigate the day before yesterday, and the energy of the portal has been recharged. Therefore, we definitely have a place to retreat, please rest assured!"

Seeing that all the plans are under control, everyone couldn't help but smile with relief on their faces.

At the moment, everyone cheered, sweeping away the frustration and panic they felt when they were suddenly told to be hostile to the royal family.

Accompanied by the joy of the crowd, the crowd finally left the guild gradually at this time, and they went home to rest.

After all these foreign aids left, Ariel also looked at the plan in her hand, nodded in satisfaction again, and looked at her guild members——

"Let's all go back and rest. The next few days will be busy. The night attack is scheduled for three days later. During these three days, we must make as many preparations as possible."

After hearing the words, everyone gradually dispersed.Those who should take a shower take a shower, and those who should go back to the room go back to the room to rest.

After a while, the entire guild hall finally regained the tranquility it should have at night, only the bright elemental lamps remained, illuminating the place as if it were daytime.

The night...began to gradually become quieter.

Ariel tidied up the file in her hand, yawned slightly, and rubbed her eyes.

A hundred versus a thousand... eh?

Although from the quantitative point of view, it seems that there is indeed an insurmountable obstacle.

But the number of flower fairies has not been counted in it.

What's more, the power of the blood race at night is indeed very terrifying. To be honest, even if Ariel didn't have much confidence before, after this meeting, she gradually began to have some confidence. She felt that this annihilation battle might be real. be able to succeed...

only……

Ariel raised her head and looked at the room of Rummy on the second floor.And the eldest princess's room is next to Duck's room.During the whole meeting, Dak didn't come out of the room once.But Ariel could tell from the ajar door that he heard everything about the meeting clearly.

What does Dak think about how hundreds of people on his side are discussing how to defeat his father?

Ariel doesn't know...

She tried to experience it, but unfortunately, she still couldn't understand what it was like to watch someone attack her father.
