There are many problems that need to be solved, and crises large and small, near and far, come one after another - some come from cultists, some come from within Anzu, some come from neighboring countries, some come from the wasteland, and some ’s... is still hidden in the layers of historical mists to this day. Even the Siren can’t tell when it will appear and in what form.
But problems must be solved one by one, from near to far, from small to big.
The most important task at this stage is still to lay a good foundation for itself and eliminate the unstable factors within the Cecil Principality.
The first batch of promotional materials used to "promote the new teachings of the Holy Light and correct past erroneous thoughts" have been printed, and the samples were sent to Gawain's desk, under the pleasant afternoon sunshine. , Gawain leaned back in his large and comfortable seat, looked at the promotional materials in his hands, and enjoyed this rare and slightly leisurely moment.
Besides him, there was only one Amber who was sleeping in the dark sky - the half-elf lady moved a chair and sat next to the window sill. At first she was just basking in the sun, but after a few minutes, she breathed out. Huda fell asleep, resting her head on the window sill, making a slight purring sound like a cat taking a nap in the sun after eating, and saliva flowed out along the window sill.
Obviously she is a shadow master, but she likes to bask in the sun, and she gets sleepy when she's in the sun, and has no vigilance at all when she gets sleepy - the shadow goddess she claims to be a devout believer in knows that her followers are like this. Is it embarrassing?
Gawain shook his head, turned his gaze away from Amber, and continued to look at the sample materials in his hand.
This is not a difficult religious classic, nor is it a lengthy exhortation and teaching. It is a thin booklet written in the most straightforward language based on Wright’s own missionary experience. The basic operating methods of the Northern Church are written on the page in simple and easy-to-understand words. It is written about the truth about atonement and heresy trials. It is written about the fact that priests hold the power to interpret the scriptures and thus control the thoughts of believers. While writing While stating these facts, the booklet also talked about the establishment of the new church in the South and its basic concepts.
This is an extremely simple and unsophisticated promotional material. It is written in vernacular. In order to make it easier for people with lower education to understand, the words used in the booklet do not even exceed "eight". "List of Common Words", which makes it look like an old farmer with little knowledge and simple language is sitting across from you, telling you the facts he has seen and heard in his most simple language. This kind of thing In the eyes of any professional cleric or scholar, it is not worth mentioning, even worthy of contempt, but this is exactly what Gawain requires.
What he wants is this kind of simple and close-to-people material, and what he wants is this way of telling it as if it were personally experienced by the person involved.
Gawain put down the pamphlet in his hand. He knew that soon tens of thousands of materials would be packed and shipped from the printing factory and shipped to every corner of the south, and a large part of them would be Sent to Luan Citysurrounding and penetrating into Luan City. For the Holy Light Church still entrenched in the city, this will be a more dangerous weapon than guns and cannons, and the priests of this era... have no experience in dealing with such weapons.
At this moment, a loud buzz suddenly came from the magic network communicator next to the desk, interrupting Gawain's thinking.
Amber, who was lying on the window sill and sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up from his sleep. The shameful half-elf said "Oh my god", jumped up and ran out along the window. The next second he was gone. There was a loud bang and a cry of surprise outside the window.
Gawain stood up and closed the window with familiarity, locked it from the inside, and then opened the magic network communicator.
Rebecca's figure appeared above the communicator: "Master Ancestor! The sample of the White Knight Armor is completed!"
Gawain was a little surprised: "So fast?"< /p>
"You have experience with magic armor, and Mr. Egg can help you," Rebecca giggled in the holographic projection and said while scratching her head, "It just adds a reverse The transformation converter is not complicated at all."
Gao Wen smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, I'll go over there, you wait for me at the research institute."
Then. He stepped forward and turned off the communicator, and at the same time, a loud bang came from the window at the right time - he turned around and saw amber hitting the window firmly and moving along the window. Slide down.
Gawain opened the window before the guy slid down completely, casually grabbed Amber's collar and dragged the girl into the house, and walked out without saying anything: "Come with me to see the magical technology. Research Institute."
Amber danced in Gawain's hands like a cat whose weakness was caught, and protested loudly: "How could you be like this? Don't you know I will come back? ! And what do you mean by locking it up! I don’t want to do any research now... Hey, why don’t you just let me down and go on my own!"
Gawain just carried Amber all the way out. As we walked, the attendants and guards along the way had long been accustomed to this scene, and they all greeted the lord and the intelligence chief calmly: It is a common sight for a lord and his guards to go out together, but sometimes it is Leading it, sometimes carrying it, but it was more or less the same...
Soon, Gawain saw the results of Rebecca and others' hard work over the past few days.
In Laboratory No. 2 of the Institute of Magical Technology, a rather mighty-looking and thick full-body armor was standing quietly on the circular platform in the center of the room. Rebecca, Kamel, Wright, Nicholas Egg and others were waiting around the platform. Several technicians were making final checks on the status of the armor and the runes around the platform. After seeing Gawain appear, they temporarily put down their weapons. Work, turn around and salute respectfully.
After Gawain responded, he focused on the eye-catching armor: "Is this the armor prepared for the White Knight?"
That is indeed a pretty set of armor. for driftingBright armor - just like the magic armor, it is completely different from any common full-body armor in this era.
The armor is silver-white overall and has a thicker shape than the magic armor. Perhaps it is to accommodate more holy light rune substrates and inversion array components. Its torso is obviously specially designed. Passed: On its back, you can see a detachable combat backpack. A faint flow of magic energy can be seen between the seams between the backpack and the armor. On the front of the armor, there are large bulges of steel plates and split armor plates. A faint flicker of light can be seen in between, and a fist-sized depressed area can be seen on the chest and abdomen. There is a translucent crystal embedded in the depressed area, but I don't know what it is used for.
On the left chest of the armor, near the heart, there is a piece of light yellow parchment written with the teachings of the Holy Light, which is fixed there by strong rivets. The hanging parchment is slightly weakened. It adds some of the cold, futuristic texture of the steel armor, reminding others of the connection between this armor and the Holy Light.
In addition, the most eye-catching thing about this set of armor is that it also comes with a full-coverage helmet - the helmet has a very eye-catching shape, and the streamlined thick steel plate is directly pressed with a stamping machine. With the words in the Book of Holy Light written on it, the tactical eyepiece made of crystal blends seamlessly with the entire helmet, and a pair of golden wing-like decorations extend from the back of the helmet, although it is obviously stamped and formed by a machine. It is a product, but it gives the whole helmet a layer of holy religious meaning out of thin air in the Xiaosha steel atmosphere——
The parchment filled with classic teachings, as well as the sacred runes and belts printed on it, With its winged helmet, it was clear that both would become the quintessential marks of the White Knight.
Gawain is very satisfied with the shape of this set of armor. It can perfectly reflect Cecil’s power and the significance of the Holy Light as a part of Cecil’s system. But is this thing good? Yes, you have to ask Rebecca.
However, it was not Gawain who was the first to ask a question, but Amber who was still shouting when he went out. At this time, he was already curious and wanted to get into the armor. Miss Elf walked around the platform, and after two circles, she grabbed Rebecca: "Can this thing allow ordinary people to use the Holy Light?"
Rebecca looked proud. : "After the last test, we conducted a series of supplementary experiments to ensure safety. Now this set of armor is a practical finished product..."
As he spoke, the roe deer said Pointing to the structure on the armor, he introduced it to Gawain: "We have optimized the previous generation's combat backpack, reduced the number of charging crystals, and improved the energy output efficiency of the backpack itself, so that it can provide more energy to the armor. . With sufficient energy, we have directly integrated a large number of holy light spells into the armor, including the most basic holy light spells, disease-removing spells, and blessing spells, which can all be released with the help of this pair of specially-made arm armors."
Gawain nodded while listening: These are the most basic holy light spells, andThe first batch of holy light spells to be analyzed and transformed. From a practical point of view, the first generation of white knights do not need to master those high-level magical spells that are powerful but inconvenient for mass production. They only need to be able to assume the responsibilities of field priests. , which is enough to greatly enhance the strength of Cecil's army and shake the faith of the traditional church.
After Rebecca finished speaking, Nicholas Egg also floated over, and a voice with metallic resonance came from his body: "Based on the design experience of magic armor, we are in the white knight's armor. A more effective cushioning lining has been added, which can better protect the safety of the wearer. On the battlefield, professionals with medical capabilities must be properly protected. In addition, due to the increased power output of the backpack, we have added more linings. With more weight-reducing runes, the pressure on the white knights from such a set of armor will also be reduced, and they will be able to carry more supplies and equipment..."
"As a supplement to protection, we There is also a shield crystal added to the chest of the white knight's armor," Kamel added, pointing to the eye-catching crystal on the chest of the armor, "This crystal is powered by an independent inverter array unit, which can Generates a Holy Light Shield, which is even stronger than the force field shield currently used by Cecil's soldiers. In an emergency, the shield it generates can cover several meters around the White Knight. Although it lasts only a few minutes, it is enough to In fierce battles, protect nearby teammates and provide opportunities for treatment or transfer."
Gawain nodded again: Just like his impression of the battlefield priest, the white knight will be their most trustworthy. The power of healing and protection. On the battlefield, a large group of priests who can release wide-area shields and can instantly cast various healing and blessing spells will greatly improve the survivability of the soldiers, and can also greatly improve the survival of the entire army. Morale and resistance to frustration during battle. Although Cecil's combat priests wear armor that is thicker than heavy cavalry, which is different from other priests' styles, the battlefield positioning of the two is obviously different. Big...
Gawain's thought continued until Rebecca carried out a huge long-handled war hammer.
“After talking about protection, let’s talk about the weapons of the White Knight!” The roe deer girl’s eyes were shining with excitement, and she shook the long-handled warhammer on her shoulder with a look of gratitude (how could she be a mage? So powerful? !), "Mr. Wright proposed that a good priest should not only have the heart to protect the innocent, but also have the power to fight evil. Therefore, the white knight also has a strong fighting ability. Look at this warhammer. It has a mechanical Impact structure, this inspiration comes from the power sap..."
