Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 21: Once friends meet again

"Armor?"

After hearing this word, Yin En, who was arranging the potions in the alchemy laboratory, stopped his hands.

He felt a sense of absurd joy - he returned to Nanling with armor, and was about to reduce the dimension to attack the mountain people, why did the other party suddenly have armor?

What? Combat power can be upgraded in real time? He made his trip to Nanling more difficult for no reason, right?

Fast forward to armor is not as good as a dog, and the ether is armed everywhere.jpg

Not only that, the mountain people spies also reported another bad news: there are a large number of driven wild beasts around the mountain people troops, and there are even violent monsters.

Yin En is not surprised at this point, the biological technology of Flaming Land.

When he left Nanling, he met a psyker who could control wild beasts, and this time when he returned to Nanling, he also found traces left by a mind-manipulating psyker in Nauman City. Remotely manipulate monsters like the Fleshshaper.

This is obviously Feiyandi's special technique. The group of steel pterosaurs may also be controlled by this technique. It's strange that the opponent doesn't use wild beasts as their precursors.

"That's bad news."

Shaking his head slightly, Yin En continued to prepare the 'Light Element Potion' and 'Thunder Thunder Potion' to prepare ammunition for his troops.

He kept his hands in his hands, and calmly asked the spies: "Is it the armor of the Flameland or the armor of the mountain people? It has to be clarified."

"If it's Flameland, then let's contact Colonel Mayova right now - this is not our job, just need to report is a great achievement."

"If it's the mountain people...Although Fei Yandi must have given them to them, it's not impossible to fight."

"Huh? Which side... should be the mountain people? I don't see other forces..."

The mountain spy who reported was a little puzzled.

In his opinion, the enemy has already brought armors over, and there are still several armors, so they are naturally invincible anyway, and they must immediately call Nauman City for support.

But Scott, who came with the spies, understood Yin En's meaning. He nodded and said, "I understand. I will immediately arrange manpower to investigate the supply routes of the mountain people!"

"Yeah."

Yin En nodded with satisfaction - he started to follow Scott eight years ago, after training as a guard in Harrison Port, he has the ability to be on his own, and he has worked with him for so long recently, You can also follow his train of thought.

Even he, an alchemist who is close to a master level, has an alchemy workshop in a city under his control. If he wants to ensure his armor and troop supplies, he has to do it himself. Far, there is a high probability of 'out of ammo'.

Not to mention the crystallization of the elements needed for the armored alchemy furnace, this kind of thing is not available in Ancheng!

Mountain people?

What is the alchemy technology of the mountain people? They also have armor?

At any rate, Yin En can still obtain the supply of elemental crystals from Nauman City. Isn't the mountain people just waiting for Feiyan to give them to them?

If Fei Yan used the armor himself, Yin En would be afraid that the opponent would launch a blitzkrieg raid to come to Ancheng. Even if he won, the city would be half destroyed, and the rebuilding time of his territory would be delayed.

But if it's mountain people...they're not at that level.

Yin En is very clear that if he wants to be proficient in armored driving skills, he needs at least two thousand hours of practice. The point of fighting is basically impossible.

Yin En is a special case, because the various large-scale engineering equipment he drove in his previous life were much more difficult than armor.

So as long as the supply route of the mountain people is cut off, there is no difference between five armored units or ten units.

"I'll go and have a look in person later." While Scott was preparing to investigate the troops, Yin En finished refining the potion in his hand: "Now, go meet Qing Chao and the mercenaries he brought—they The arrival of the mountain may still be unknown information for the mountain people.”

What Lai'an City lacks today is trustworthy combatants who will not turn against each other, to equip them with magnetic storm armor and rechargeable rifles.

The arrival of Qing Chao's group of people can just replenish a large number of effective combat forces.

But Yin En never thought that Qing Chao's support this time brought an unexpected surprise.

—He brought Yardbert here!

There is an old and solemn statue in the front yard of Lai'an Ancient Castle. It is engraved with the appearance of Baisen Dragon God overlooking all living beings on the top of the mountain, showing the bloodline and ancient beliefs of the lords here.

And now, beside this statue, Yin En ushered in an unexpected reunion.

"Young Tide? You..."

Yin En opened his eyes slightly. He glanced at the blue-haired swordsman who was smiling and bowed to him, and then looked at the white-haired swordsman on the other side, who bowed shyly to him and disguised himself The dead king of Chengbaizhimin, besides surprise, also has a subtle emotion on his expression: "How did you bring him here?"

——What's going on? How did this guy, Qingchao, meet up with Alberto?

"Boss, I don't really know."

The blue-haired swordsman laughed. He skillfully hooked his hand and put it on Adalbert's shoulder. The mountain people found us and said that they are friends with you, boss, and this brother is an acquaintance who came to join you."

"I originally wanted to contact you for confirmation, but the communication over there was blocked by Feiyandi, and the only way to send messages was via Asuka Transmission, and he seemed to be really familiar with you. The elf friend you mentioned, Ann Fa also assured me of this... so I brought him."

Adbert cast a look of help to Yin En - obviously, the customs on the side of Jingge Cliff are too enthusiastic for the people in the western region of the empire, and he is very uncomfortable with Qing Chao's familiar character.

But it's not familiarity, it's surveillance.

Although Qing Chao's style is rough on the surface, in fact he has a delicate mind. He still has some doubts about Adalbert's identity, so he has been closely monitoring him all the time. The custom has never dared to refuse.

But I didn't know where to go.

Yin En glanced at the blue-haired swordsman with the third level of combat power on the shoulder of the dead king, who looked like a good brother, and couldn't help sighing: "You did a good job—it's better to say you did it." Great, but don't do it next time."

"You didn't see..."

Speaking of this, Yin En paused for a moment, while Adbert hurriedly broke away from Qing Chao's hand, coughed, and said softly: "You can call me 'Old Shadow'."

"Yes, the old shadow." Yin En knew that this was the code name that Adalbert gave himself. He had to hide his identity, but his mind was filled with the dead souls of Avak, so he used it as a code name for himself. name.

Yin En criticized quite righteously: "Qing Chao, don't you feel uncomfortable if you don't see the old shadow? Stay away from him, he is afraid of the heat."

"Good, good."

Since the safety of Gu Ying has been confirmed, Qing Chao smiled and let go of his hand, letting the other party survive.

Adelbert had a liberated expression on his face.

Everyone returned to the interior of the castle.

Yin En also found an opportunity to ask Adalbert about his recent movements.

After Yadbert followed Pansha to Nanling, he stayed in the area of ​​the Dragon Worship Sect. Here, the Dragon Worship Sect disguised him as a white citizen of a mountain village, just like the dead king's white hair Kind of like it.

In the recent period of time, he mainly rests his mind and adjusts his mood. After all, the Avak collar incident is a world-class event that most people will never encounter in their lifetime, and it is difficult to get out of the psychological shadow. Well, only those who are used to seeing big scenes can easily get rid of the influence,

Unexpectedly, one wave of ups and downs and one wave of ups and downs, just when Yadbert was about to calm down, the Nanling mountain people rebelled.

Flying Flame and the group of steel pterosaurs directly destroyed all the communication nodes in the area under the jurisdiction of the Dragon Worshiping Cult, and used the talent derived from the steel pterosaur's unique 'magnetic field flight' to interfere with the surrounding areas of the Dragon Worshiping Cult All communication channels.

Even flying pigeons need to sway for a long time due to changes in the magnetic field before reaching the correct destination.

Adelbert did not reveal the power of his dead king. In the eyes of others, he is just an ordinary sublimator of the water system and ice system, and the other party is Yin En's guest, an old fox like Elder Manya Of course, it is impossible for him to be injured by his own hands—so when he knew that Qing Chao was leading his team to Lai'an to help Yin En fight against the rebellious mountain people, he asked him to take Adbert there by the way.

"I said, why can't I get in touch with the Dragon Sect - they are blocked by all-channel communication."

Yin En suddenly realized.

As for Yadbert himself, the Dead King researcher said a little cautiously: "Recently, Yin En and your friends have taken care of me..."

"You are fighting a war recently, but I don't know what I can do. I can't expose the power of the dead king. I am just an ordinary first-level sublimator with little combat power."

Obviously, Adbert's sense of morality is still too strong. Seeing Yin En and the others busy, he felt a little embarrassed and wanted to help.

"You don't need to do anything else."

Yin En waved his hand and said resolutely: "Just help me manage the alchemy laboratory. Recently, I have to deal with government affairs, manage the progress of experiments, and practice and study. Don't have too many things."

"You don't have to do anything, just help me keep an eye on the progress of the experiment... If you have any ideas, feel free to say so, I welcome academic discussions."

"OK!"

Adelbert was delighted to hear that he could help.

But the one who is more happy is undoubtedly Yin En—you know, Yadbert is the world's top technical talent, and he is a talented researcher whom Grand Duke Thorin regards as his heir.

Originally, Yin En was still thinking about how to get Adalbert to work for him - with such a powerful person taking care of the laboratory, many of his technologies can be realized earlier...

But he didn't expect that before he could open his mouth, Adbert would come to the door on his own initiative.

And it seemed that Yin En had helped him a lot.

Yoon Eun-shuang is a bit embarrassed to win.

To welcome the reunion of old friends, everyone had lunch in the castle.

The specialty foods in Ancheng are mostly desserts. During the food disaster, Yin En set an example and never ate those too delicate things.

But the chef in the castle could see that these guests were old acquaintances of the lord, so he used his strength and specially prepared a pot of sweet wine made with flowers for them.

This is a soup made of non-potion-grade Xiahui grass as the main ingredient, a sweet wine brewed from sweet-scented osmanthus flowers, stewed rice cakes, nuts and some berries.

When it is stewed, the restaurant can smell the aroma, and when it is eaten, everyone, including Yin En, is full of praise-the taste of the soup basically melts in the mouth, and the sweetness and fragrance It's just right, it won't make people feel tired, but it makes people want to have another spoonful.

The nuts in the soup have been completely softened and crispy. With the hard bread and roasted venison as the staple food, it is enough to satisfy everyone present.

Yin En himself thinks it is quite good. Although he likes to eat strong, salty and spicy food, this elegant and sweet soup is also suitable for adjusting his taste.

"It feels a bit bland, but the floral fragrance is very fresh and really nice."

Qingchao’s evaluation is also very good, but the taste of Jinggeya is extremely sweet - the Hai people over there are basically sweet lovers, even the barbecue is sweet, and the fried fish must be sprinkled A layer of sweet sauce.

"It smells like...mother."

Adelbert seems to be thinking of his home in the western region, and the taste of Laianling is somewhat similar to that of the western region.

As for Scott...

He just dropped the seventh bowl.

——This guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes eats the most!

After lunch, Yin En led Scott and Qing Chao to reorganize the current troops from Ancheng and foreign mercenaries.

The mercenaries from Port Harrison have a full squad, that is, fifty people, and some of them are Yin En's acquaintances, and they were Red Blade Lübeck's subordinates back then.

This also proves that the reinforcements sent by Viscount Grant are all elites, which can be regarded as costly.

Silently thanking the Viscount in his heart, Yin En made a general calculation, and now he has about one hundred and ten people who can serve as the core combat force.

Eighty of them are noble private soldiers disguised as mercenaries, from Port Harrison and Nauman City.

They are all professional military personnel who are trustworthy, will not defect, and are willing and accustomed to obey orders.

The number of militiamen recruited in the last week did not exceed 200 people-willing to get more food and money, the number of people who joined the army during the war is still not many, even to protect their hometown.

Yin En can use more capital to fight for it, but he doesn't think that the people who come to Ancheng are worth it.

Until Yin En successfully defeated the mountain people, the people here would not regard him as a 'lord who can rule for a long time'.

Although they won't say it on the surface, their heart will make them do it subconsciously.

But this also proves the reliability of the more than 100 people who are willing to join the militia today-whether they are speculative or simply want to make a living, those who choose to support Yin En's rule in times of crisis will definitely Received preferential treatment after the war.

But in the final analysis, with such an army, the defenders of the city are a little nervous.

So in order to decide the next tactical action, Yin En decided to lead the team to the area reported by the spies to conduct another investigation.
