"That's ...... Is it a success?" Anna asked softly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Well, the next thing is to cut it open and seal it with silver foil. Agatha nodded, "Depending on the type of sigil, the way of finishing is different. For example, the Scream Sigil cannot be cut and must be used as a whole. ”

"What about when you fail?"

"The bloodline can't gather mana for unknown reasons, and no matter how good the ingredients are, there's always a chance that this will happen. The solution is also very simple, just pry the magic stone out and do it again. ”

"But to consume the excess blood......" Anna frowned.

"So in Tachira, the devil's blood is more precious than the witch's," Agatha smiled self-deprecatingly, "No one cares if the witch's blood is wasted during the experiment, but if the devil's blood is lost, scolding and punishment are indispensable." ”

......

In the end, two of the six sigils failed, and despite the exact same steps as before, the two bloodlines did not respond when injected with mana, in other words, they did not survive.

Agatha removed the stone, took out the spare wooden box, and continued the second crafting.

She had to hurry, the devil was dying.

The alien who was fixed on the wooden table let out irregular spasms, the blue-black skin gradually turned gray, the massive blood loss made its breathing intensify, the red mist under the helmet was obviously lightened, once the mist was consumed, the devil would die in a very short time, and the blood at that time could only last for about a quarter of an hour at most.

"Wait," Anna stopped Agatha as she raised her knife, "with my blood." ”

As soon as she was about to refuse, Anna had already cut the skin of her wrist with black fire, "Nanava can only heal wounds, not replenish your blood, Your Majesty said that losing too much blood will cause dizziness, and if you don't get it, you will faint, which is not good for your future experiments." Of course, it is best to rest for two days before resuming practice and production, during which you will eat more meat porridge and liver, and the recovery will be faster. ”

“...... That's what Your Majesty said?"

"Yes, every witch has taken a trauma self-help lesson. Anna smiled, "And you asked me to be my assistant so that I could learn how to make sigils, right? ”

Agatha was silent for a moment, "Then I'm sorry for you." ”

"You're welcome," she said lightly, "I'm very interested in that, too." ”

“...... In the end, under the attack of the devil, the witch empire fell apart and completely collapsed. The surviving people climbed over the mountains and crossed the rivers to come to this wild land, re-establish the towns, and prepare for the third and final battle of the divine will, this is the truth of history. ”

After Roland finished speaking, he propped his chin and quietly looked at Edith's expression.

The afternoon sun shone into the room, casting a glow in front of the desk, and the woman's contemplative appearance was like a statue, her blue hair was reflected in the sunlight and pale white, and her beautiful face was not tarnished by these appalling news. As he expected, Edith's eyes were more curious and excited.

She pondered for a long time before she slowly spoke, "You must not have made up such a ...... in order to trick me. Incredible story. Is the devil really that powerful?"

"Needless to say, they are not only fierce individuals, but also surprisingly numerous. My army can easily defeat the knights of Tifeko, but they may not be able to defeat the devil, after all, they have been lurking in the northwest of the Dawn Realm for the past four hundred years, unlike witches who need to start from scratch. The most important thing is that there is no possibility of peace in this war, and it will not end until one side is destroyed. ”

"That'...... Are you going to get this out there?"

"Sooner or later," Roland sighed, "but not now, I don't know what kind of mentality the people will have towards such a terrifying and ruthless alien enemy, and building confidence is a slow process. ”

"I agree, panic is more terrible than any enemy," Edith nodded, "I have one last question. How long is the War of Divine Providence away from us?"

"Five years, or more soon...... No one knows exactly when the red moon will fall. All I can say is that war can break out at any time, so I can't slowly unify the Grey Keep step by step. ”

She didn't reply, but got up from her seat, got down on one knee, and said, "In that case, the Kant family is willing for you to drive, your laws will be carried out unhindered in the Northlands, and your will is the only voice in the Northlands," she paused, "I also hope that those promises of yours will be fulfilled." ”

"Do you still think about the steam engine factory," Roland smiled and shook his head, "Your father doesn't necessarily agree to this, and what guarantee does the Kantian family have—"

"I," she said without hesitation.

"What?"

"Your Majesty, I promise that if you don't feel at ease, Cole can stay here. "That way, my father will have no choice but to agree, even if he is reluctant." ”

"You mean to stay in Neverwinter as a hostage?" Although he didn't mean this before, he still felt a little embarrassed when he said it openly, "Isn't this a disguised threat in the eyes of the Duke?"

"Not a hostage," she said with one hand to her breast, saluting like a knight, "allow me to join your town hall, I want to see the new world you have planned." ”

......

At nightfall, Roland was given the six newly made sigils.

"Thank you," he nodded at Agatha, "is it going well?"

"The first batch failed twice, and Anna was involved in some of the production," Agatha yawned, "Anyway, if you still want to make sigils, please give me a spacious and independent laboratory first, not a shack like a stable." ”

"A mage tower, I owe you. Roland happily agreed.

As soon as the ancient witch left the office, the nightingale poked her head out from behind her, "What are these sigils for?"

"Sort of the equivalent of telephones, alarms, and cameras, right?"

"What's that?"

"You'll find out if you try," Roland laughed.

Today was a fruitful day, listening to the sigils temporarily solved the problem of long-distance information transmission, although the number was scarce and only witches could use, but it was better than relying on flying messengers entirely. The Scream Sigil emits a high-pitched chirp about the size of a border area when it senses the Devil's ability, which can effectively contain the enemy's sneak attack. As for the Sigil of Insight, which is part of a plan to assist Thunder in his expedition, he can't go to sea with the fleet, so it's a shame to miss out on the spectacular and eerie sea line.

Of course, what pleased Roland the most was Edith Kant's oath of allegiance.

Nothing was sweeter than population and resources, and if the Northlands were as fully committed as she had claimed, the territory under his actual control would more than double, and the remnants of the aristocracy in the East would feel the pressure.

If it goes well, he may be able to complete the great cause of unification before the arrival of the evil moon this year.
