I Created an Ancient Salvation Organization
Chapter 501 Harpy Sword
The gray-black smoke formed after the coal was burned seemed to solidify and enveloped the sky. Today was a bright sunny day, but the light was abnormally dim.
This is similar to the contradictory feeling of light and darkness coexisting during a solar eclipse.
In such an environment, the first thing that catches the eye is the hardened dirt road. The city is expanding with unprecedented efficiency, so fast that it can't keep up with the laying of infrastructure.
Not far from the railway station, there are rows of horse-drawn carriages waiting for passengers, and the drivers who are begging for life are chatting about something.
The kingdom capital and the country still disagree.
The carriage of the carriage here is no longer the familiar wood texture, but is made of lacquered steel strips, which can be said to be ventilated from all sides, but a roof can be set up to protect from the rain.
In Yan Guo's historical drama on the eve of World War II, human rickshaws are everywhere in big cities like Modu.
And what Tang You sees at the moment is basically the Mara version of the former.
Such means of transportation are undoubtedly lighter and smaller than wooden carriages, and can travel more freely in the streets. Seeing the big from the small, its existence shows that the society has a very strong demand for short-distance passenger transport.
In this era, all the middle class who can barely reach the threshold of "gentleman" will buy a hat and a pair of bright leather shoes for themselves.
Influenced by the taste of the Gallic country in the southwest, the men of Munihei will also configure a trench coat for themselves, and they must be ironed without a trace of folds.
With such equipment, they obviously don't allow themselves to go to sweat, let their hair stick together wetly, and lose all the dignity they have accumulated.
If so, many businesses will not be able to do well.
Therefore, riding a carriage has become a very necessary thing for the middle class and pseudo-middle class, even if this expense often makes them curse behind their backs.
Many times, as the times advance, it becomes only technology and productivity, and people's minds never change.
In the era of the Yan Kingdom's economic miracle, many people with a little wealth usually spend a lot of money to buy a big phone, which was still a rarity at the time, for the sake of face and career.
As Tang You walked towards the double carriage, he quietly filtered the air with his spiritual power.
The stench of horse dung in Mooney's air is even scarier than that of a small town. No wonder the Prince Regent spends money to clean the city in order to welcome Princess Elizabeth.
When they found that there was business coming, the drivers immediately gathered around.
One of them was the first to speak: "Sir, my car has recently been replaced with soft wool pads, and you won't feel any bumps on the road."
"Also, my horse is also a heavy-duty draught horse from Tsarist Russia. You see, with its tall physique and strong muscles, it won't pant even if it runs for ten miles.
Due to climate reasons, Tsarist Russia has always produced excellent draught horses, with abundant stamina and strong physical strength, which is an important source of revenue for their exports to Europe.
"How much does it cost to get from here to the center of the city?" Tang You asked as he got into the carriage.
The driver was overjoyed, and the others looked at it, the former hurriedly said: "Sir, only 30 pfennigs are needed, and the safekeeping will allow you to safely go to the center."
Tang You nodded, and took out a three-mark Union Silver Taller from his pocket: "Then take me around the city, and by the way, let's talk about the latest news.
The eyes of the people around him were gleaming, and their faces were full of envy. After completing this single business, they could almost surpass the usual three-day harvest.
The lucky one took the silver coin and looked at it carefully for a moment, and after confirming it was correct, he put it into his pocket with excitement: "Dear gentleman, don't worry, I will definitely show you all the corners.
It's not that Tang You is lazy to ride the carriage, but that the horse manure contaminated by the shoes is too conspicuous.
Moreover, the coachman runs around the city all day, and he is undoubtedly well informed. It is not a big deal to exchange some money for information.
Furthermore, he can also take this opportunity to conduct a rough scan and search of Munich, find out the most superficially hidden otherworldly creatures, and find out the general situation of this place.
As the coachman sits on the driver's seat and shakes the reins, the horseshoe makes a sound of "De De De De", and the car moves forward on the street, and a small building of wood or masonry rushes toward you.
"Ding Ding... let it go, let it go.
"You can't see the road!
Pedestrians, cars, patrolmen on horseback, and xiajiu who walk along the walls together constitute the urban landscape of the nineteenth century.
In fact, the scenery is not very beautiful, because the most common thing in it is horse urine.
According to one data, Renton, a city in the age of steam, boasted a population of 5 million and more than 300,000 horses, which constituted the most important transport labor.
On average, about one horse for every fifteen people has created a horse manure crisis.
As a rising star, Hans Kingdom's development momentum is even stronger, otherwise it would be impossible to launch a war in the future. This also means that the ratio of people to horses here is higher, possibly reaching the level of thirteen or twelve to one.
Therefore, the amount of horse manure Mooney produces every day can be imagined.
"Sir, the biggest news in the city during this period should be that Princess Elizabeth is coming to visit." The coachman said while driving the horse.
After Elizabeth married Grand Duke Sergei of Tsarist Russia, she had an Orthodox baptismal name - Yelisavita Fyodorovna Romanova.
It stands to reason that its name should also be changed.
However, the European countries always looked down on the Slavs, thinking that they were just a bunch of barbarians, so even the folk coachmen insisted on calling them Elizabeth.
"I know this, let's talk about the others, preferably the ones that are more sensational in the market. I like to collect them and compile them into a book." Tang You said.
The coachman was very surprised: "I didn't expect you to be a writer! 35
But this remark also aroused his enthusiasm. No matter which country, there will never be a shortage of anecdotes and stories, and many myths and legends that reflect people's appearance are born from this.
Therefore, the coachman completely called the chatterbox.
Tang You rides through the capital of the Kingdom of Bavaria in a different story.
The buildings in the outer city are generally rudimentary, and some even have only a rag shed, while the ground is grass-hardened mud, and the sanitary conditions are quite bad.
But the number of people here is also the largest, and the three religions and nine streams are mixed among them, and countless foreigners are chasing their dreams here.
In the old city, close to the palace, the situation is quite different.
The ground here is paved with carefully manicured masonry, and lush street trees divide the street into three parts, with a one-way carriageway on the left and right, and a novel tramway in the middle.
・・・・Seeking flowers・
There are special cleaners on the street to remove horse excrement at the first time, so it looks clean and tidy.
No matter what era, the country with that kind of system, the rich areas are always so-called "otherworldly".
Tang You also focused on searching here.
Although in his eyes all living beings are equal, in fact, as far as a single individual is concerned, the time and space twists and turns of the ruling class with names and surnames attacked by monsters are indeed countless times larger than those of ordinary people.
Tang You is indeed an idealist, if not, he would not have chosen to create an organization of the nature of Aegis.
But he will not ignore the objective foundation, but seek the ideal soil in reality.
After the initial walk in Mooney, the twilight had already come, and the night watchman carried a kerosene lamp with a round glass belly and a wooden ladder, and lit the street lamps on both sides of the street one by one.
Orange lights gradually illuminate the city.
Tang You bid farewell to the coachman, walked a distance on his own, and paid to stay at a mid-range hotel.
A few minutes after entering the house, he quietly turned the window and left, and before closing time, he changed his face and went to a weapon shop he had just fancy.
After paying a gold coin with a face value of twenty, Tang You got his wish and got a one-handed sword made of Damascus steel and said to have been forged by a blacksmith inherited from the royal family.
He was noncommittal.
After all, no matter how good the cold weapon of this era is, it is not worth mentioning here in Tang You.
He just didn't find a blacksmith shop, otherwise he would just buy two pieces of extremely cheap iron ore and go back.
Back in his rented house, Tang You lifted it lightly, and the one-handed sword floated into the air lightly. Next, he took out a handful of black-brown powder from the remodeled pocket.
This is an extraordinary substance from the corpses of monsters.
"..."
Tang You's thumb and forefinger were slightly scattered, and the powder particles fell evenly from his eyes, bound by the invisible force on the surface of the sword body, without any scattering.
Then, he grabbed the blade with his right hand, and tried harder and harder, the sharp blade couldn't cut through his skin at all, but the blade was gradually burnt to golden red.
Under the urging of spiritual power, the extraordinary substance was activated and penetrated into the hot blade bit by bit.
Soon, this iron-forged thing seemed to be "alive", like a seven-inch snake strangled in Tang You's hands, but in just a few seconds, it gradually returned to its original state quietly.
His hand slowly loosened, and the golden-red color of the sword body also dimmed.
The original pattern unique to Damascus steel has dissipated, and it has become an ordinary bright steel, but there is a slender black strip in the middle, which is engraved with a strange blue pattern.
Looking carefully, this transformed one-handed sword is full of grim beauty.
Tang You grabbed a sword flower at random: "Your supernatural source monster looks like a harpy, so you should call it a harpy sword."
Although the strength of his divine soul is very weak, the knowledge and skills exist in the end, and the brief refining process has reached the limit in all aspects, and he has made a powerful extraordinary item with junk materials.
Tang You returned the sword to the scabbard:
"With the weapons in hand, it's time to clean up the monsters in this city. The moon is dark and the wind is high, and it's a good time to hunt."
……and.
