The setting sun.
The sun can no longer bring warmth.
The autumn wind blows gently, rolling up the withered leaves.
At this time, wisps of smoke were rising from the small Perrin Manor.
This is both preparation for dinner and preparation for the evening campfire.
In the manor, after hearing the news that Bard was back, Baron Claire hurried to the hospital. After seeing the unfamiliar figure on the hospital bed, he breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"I heard from the maid that you came back with an injured child. I thought something happened to Wizard Yaro. Who is this child? Why did you bring him back?"
Bud whispered: "This is a child saved by Wizard Yaro on the way."
Since it was a wizard's matter, Baron Claire didn't care too much. He tilted his head and motioned for Bard to go out.
When the two of them walked outside the house, Baron Claire still didn't stop, turned around, as if preparing to go to the restaurant, and asked casually: "What's the matter with the blood on your body?"
Bard followed behind him in a few steps, bowed slightly, and explained respectfully: "We encountered a checkpoint set up by Viscount Corey's logistics team at the fork in the road. They wanted to seize our scaly wildebeest. Wizard Yarrow took the lead, and I could only We were able to fight back together and get some blood when we defeated them.”
After some words of evasion, Bud picked out what he had done in advance.
Baron Claire didn't know this, but even if he knew it, he wouldn't care.
At this time, he was very confused about another question: "We passed by last time, why didn't we encounter the checkpoint?"
and……
Baron Claire frowned and thought to himself: "Shouldn't such an important matter as setting up territorial checkpoints be directly controlled by the soldiers?"
The logistics team, as the name suggests, mainly does logistics work.
Checkpoints are not just simple checkpoints, sometimes they are also a line of defense against invasion, and it is not the logistics team's turn to do it anyway.
Bud didn't know this rule. After hearing the baron's words, he thought of the captain's claim and hurriedly added: "Their captain claimed to be the viscount's lover. Could it be related to this?"
"Lover?" Baron Claire glanced at Bard and was not surprised. Instead, he asked, "Since he is Viscount Cory's lover, why didn't Viscount Cory transfer him to a private soldier instead of breaking the rules? thing?"
If he is truly a lover, there is no way he would be allowed to do such a risky thing.
In fact, the story of Viscount Corey's love for men was so widely circulated that Bud had no doubts about it before.
"Am I deceived by him?" Bud thought of the civilians tied up by the soldiers, and then he came to his senses. "They were just summoning the militia? But why did they summon it at that location?"
Running to a place without a village or a shop, and standing there in a defensive posture, if you say you are just calling in the militia, no one will believe it, right?
Bud guessed: "Is it because the people who came last time were beaten badly by us and the people who followed did not dare to disobey their superiors' orders, so they stayed there?"
Is that so?
Baron Claire still feels that there are some things that cannot be explained.
He couldn't think clearly at the moment, so he didn't hesitate and asked instead: "Why did you come back so soon? Where is Wizard Yaro?"
Bard explained: "There are monsters like that all around the castle now. Wizard Yaro was afraid that I would be in danger with the child outside, so he asked me to come back and wait for him."
Baron Claire paused, turned back in surprise and repeated: "Are they full of monsters?"
Bard's expression was a little heavy: "Those monsters did not retreat like the first outbreak. There are still such monsters around Perrin Castle."
After a position is damaged for a long time, it will naturally become more and more damaged, until it suddenly breaks at a certain limit and is no longer able to be suppressed.
"Did Wizard Yarrow go in?" Claire asked confirmingly.
Bud nodded affirmatively: "He went in. I watched him go in with my own eyes. When I left, I didn't see him come out."
Yes, Bud looked back from a distance and saw Yaro going in, and then Bud ran away.
Claire frowned and thought for a moment, then raised her head and said suddenly: "Put on your armor and prepare your horse, and I'll go over and take a look too!"
"Sir! You can't take risks!" Bard's expression changed drastically and he quickly tried to persuade him, "What's more, we even drove away the logistics personnel who came to recruit troops. They may come to retaliate at any time!"
Claire has made up her mind: "Because we have driven away the logistics of the recruitment, and because you encountered another obstacle there today, we must seize the time and leave Viscount Corey's territory as soon as possible!"
"Since Wizard Yaro has a way to deal with those monsters, I have to go there to see if there is anything I can do to help, and hurry up to clean up those monsters - we must return to the Perrin territory as soon as possible!"
…
Time was running out, and Yaro didn't know when the unknown danger would arrive, so he had no choice but to ignore his heartache and dismantle all the fine fire stones from the backup fire epee sword and use them as fuel for processing.
Since there are no alchemy-related equipment, each step requires direct control by Yaro using magic.
With limited time and not much fuel, all Yaro could do was to modify the original heavy armor of soldiers in a certain way, and the changes required must be small.
Yaro took out pen and paper from the space ring, and then began to ask himself.
"For heavy armor, what effect do I need most?"
[For the defense of the limbs and chest, even without a buffer device, the hard heavy armor can eliminate sharp impacts like an exoskeleton, allowing you to release your power with more peace of mind]
Therefore, it is best not to move the heavily armored limbs and chest. The magic hand cannot be used for high-pressure stamping, and the modified parts will definitely not be as hard as the craftsmen's careful tempering. "The soldier's heavy armor is too bulky, and I need to be able to put it on quickly."
The torso of the soldier's heavy armor is an iron barrel that can be opened and closed, all in one piece. This gives it sufficient resistance to rigid attacks, but also makes this heavy armor difficult to wear by a single person. Generally, a soldier is required. Compared with helping to put on the clothes, if there is an emergency war, the heavily armored soldiers will have no choice but to keep their armor on.
[Make a cut on it and change it into a staggered design, that is, change one breastplate into two overall panels, one going from the back through the head to protect the front, and the other is the support on the side, connected to the heavy armor The two arms, the connection points between the two positions use mortise and tenon structure]
It is very fast to put on in this way, but when faced with side impact, there is a risk that the heavy armor will collapse, but compared with the speed of wearing, this is an acceptable flaw.
"I still need to dissipate heat! While wearing iron armor, using the Fiery Sword Technique for a long time will definitely be too much for my body!"
