Release that Witch

9. Chapter 9 Months of Demon (below)

    “Not many, His Royal Highness, every Months of Demon will only have two or three such monsters, otherwise Longsong Stronghold will face big trouble.”

    “Good, you watched it very carefully,” Roland ordered Huunter to stand up. “What is your name?” It doesn’t look like a Greycastle person. ”

    “I have half of Mojin Clan’s lineage, and the town people call me Iron Axe.”

    Mojin, Sandpeople in the desert southwest of the kingdom, is said to be a descendant of the sand giant. Roland searched for relevant memories in his mind. Instead of using clan’s name, he used the title and obviously didn’t want to be related to Sandpeople anymore. As for why he came to this remote place from the southwestern border, there is still a series of bitter stories.

    But those are not the focus, Border Town does not care about the birth.

    Roland clap his hands. “I asked about Carter today, rewarding them with ten silver royals and taking them on.”

    “Thank you for your reward,” the three said in unison.

    After taking the person away, Carter Lannis returned and returned. “His Highness, you ask, do you want to stay here?”

    Roland is undecided, “What do you think?”

    “This is absolutely not the case, Your Highness!”Knight said loudly, “According to hunter, Evil Beast, which is a Wild boar species, is hard to cope with. If you don’t wear the 50-step outer bow, you have to wait for forty steps and thirty steps to shoot. This is only the elite soldiers of stronghold. Coupled with their large number, without a strong wall to rely on, relying on local guards to block, I am afraid that more than 10% of deaths and injuries will collapse. ”

    “You said so before you saw the witch. Can’t you think about everything?”Roland sighed.

    “This…witch though evil, but Anna…Miss Anna doesn’t look like this. As your Knight, I have to be realistic. ”

    “Yeah, what if I give you a wall?”

    “What?”Carter suspected that he had got it wrong.

    “I will give you a wall, just between the foot of the Northern Slope Mountain and the Scarlet Water River,” Roland said word by word. “Although the walls of Greycastle Kingdom Capital are not as majestic, it is still possible to block the beasts.”

    “His Royal Highness, do you know what you are talking about?”Knight was smirked. “There is a limit to the noise. If you don’t leave, you can only forgive me for being rude.”

    “Is there still three months? I have read the records of the past. Most of the first snow here came at the end of February after the winter. ”

    “Three years is not enough! Building a wall requires a large number of workers, starting with mixed soil. Each time you fill one or two feet, you must tamper once, otherwise there will be a risk of collapse if the pile is high. This is still the simplest barrier wall,” Carter shook his head again and again. “The masonry wall is even slower. It takes hundreds of Stonemason to chisel the stones in advance and build them one by one.” His Royal Highness, any wall is built like this, and there are no exceptions. Let the city rise from day to night, it is a story that is only in myths and legends. ”

    Roland signals that he doesn’t have to say anything again, “I understand. You don’t have to conclude so quickly. If there is no reliable wall at the time, I will evacuate you to Longsong Stronghold. I didn’t intend to throw my life in this ghost place. ”

    Knight kneel on one knee, “I will swear to protect you!”

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

    In the castle garden, Roland sipped a bitter ale and looked at Anna, who was dedicated to eating creamy pastries, and recovered a lot.

    He has decided to block Evil Beast in Border Town – even the base camp can’t keep it, and talk about farming. To build a wall that connects the Northern Slope and the Scarlet Water River within three months, you must adopt a reasonable solution and cross-generational technology.

    Roland is not a whimsy. He has been on the field around Border Town’s (although not in person), and there is still a clear picture in the memory – the Northern Slope Mountain foot and the Scarlet Water River are only about 600 meters away. It is a natural mouthwash. The Northern Slope Mine is surrounded by rock fragments that have been extracted from the caves due to years of mining.

    These gravel sections are grayish white and rich in calcium carbonate. They can be used as limestone after grinding. With limestone, it is equal to cement.

    That’s right, this hydraulic material, which has changed the history of human construction, has a wide range of raw materials, simple preparation, and one of the real cropping tools.

    Roland estimated in his mind that the concrete was not thought of, not technically, but the amount of cement that needed to be consumed was too great. He was not sure that he would burn so much cement powder in three months. In addition, the concrete toughness needs to be matched with the steel bars to become a complete body, so it is obviously not realistic to make a concrete wall.

    To maximize the savings of cement and the use of existing materials, the masonry wall is the most appropriate choice.

    The so-called boulder is the unpolished stone, which is a natural appearance when it is just mined. Because the shape of the stone is irregular, there is no way to build it directly. It needs to be processed into a brick shape by Stonemason. The stone wall is made of cement as a binder. No matter how strange the stone shape can be piled up, the gap between the stone and the stone is filled with cement, which saves cement and does not pick material.

    The general direction is settled like this, but in practice, I am afraid I have to do it myself, Roland thought. Whether it’s calcined cement or wool, the stone steps wall is a brand new thing. No one has seen these things except themselves, and no one knows what to do. I am afraid that the next three months will be busy.

    “look.”

    Anna’s crisp voice came from behind.

    Roland turned her head and saw a small cluster of flames quietly appearing in her palm. There was no wind around, and the flames were up and down, as if she was nodding her. She shook her finger and the flame was like a toddler baby, moving slowly to the tip of her finger. In the end, it stays at the top of the index finger and calms down.

    You’ve done it!

    In an incredible scene, Roland praised the bottom of heart. This is not the magic of the eye, nor the chemical trick, but the true supernatural power. But this is not the place that attracts Roland most – it is more dazzling than the flame, it is the look of Anna.

    She stared at her fingertips intently, and the flames of the lake reflected in the clear eyes of the lake, like the elves sealed in the blue gem. The traces left by the prisoners on her have faded, and although she still seldom laughs, her face is no longer lifeless. The girl’s small nose oozes a little bit of sweat, and the white cheeks exudes vitality. Even if you look at it, you will feel happy.

    “what happened to you?”

    “Ahhhh……Nothing,” Roland noticed that he had been staring at her for too long. He looked away and coughed twice. “So, then try to use it to burn iron.” ”

    In the past few days, in addition to eating and sleeping, she will practice repeatedly in the shed, and the hard work made Roland feel ashamed – even if he faced the college entrance examination, he did not feel so excited.

    It seems that it will take a long time for her to master this power, Roland thought. As a result, new projects that have been conceived for a long time can be put on the agenda.
