Start a core cabin

With the liberation of the free city of Rajel, things became chaotic, but fortunately, Michelle was there, and most of these troubles were solved. When Duan Muhuai followed Mi Qilu to the conference room, representatives of various forces who appeared in Rajel City also gathered together.

"Keep everyone waiting for a long time."

Right now, Michelle is still wearing the maid outfit she used to be. I don't know if it's because she doesn't have time to change it or for other reasons. I saw her walk into the room, and then introduced to everyone.

"This is the judge who killed the captain of the third team and the devil apostle, and rescued me from the Herman soldiers."

Hearing Michelle's words, everyone present turned their heads to look. Logically speaking, if an ordinary person appeared at this time, most of these people would feel surprised and unbelievable. But when they saw the door open, and a man whose head was almost as high as the ceiling, dressed in pitch black, and inlaid with skull-marked armor strode in, everyone trembled and stood up hastily.

I'm going, where did this monster come from!

They were still guessing before, what kind of person could kill the captain of Herman's army and the devil's apostle, but now they look at it --- I believe even if you say that he can kill the devil!

It can be seen from this that people really look at their faces.

Either in a good or a bad sense.

"Hi there."

Duanmu Huai stared at the crowd and nodded slightly.

"I'm Duanmuhuai, a judge from the Tribunal."

"The Tribunal..."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's self-introduction, a burly old soldier with a blindfold on his right eye narrowed his eyes and thought for a while.

"I don't seem to have heard of this faction. May I ask if you have any relationship with AL or Hani?"

"The Tribunal doesn't operate on this continent, so it's normal that you haven't heard of it."

"Oh I got it."

Hearing this, the old soldier nodded. But at this moment, Jiandang Kanami who was standing behind Duanmuhuai was shocked when he saw the old soldier.

"Mr. Barres! Why are you here?"

And hearing Kanami's voice, Barres also looked at her, and then showed a surprised expression.

"Oh? Isn't this Your Excellency Kanami? Why are you in Liberty City? Shouldn't you be by Lady Leah's side?"

"You know each other?"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Duanmuhuai asked Jian Dang Kanami, who also nodded.

"Yes, Mr. Bares is the chief general of the Lisas Army, and also the general who leads the main force of the Black Army."

"What a shame."

The old man bowed his head.

"As a person who was captured by the enemy and brainwashed, I am ashamed of this title."

"So, what's going on?"

"Let me explain."

At this moment, another voice appeared, and Duanmu Huai saw a cute girl with long blue hair and glasses standing up.

"Who are you……………"

"Excuse me, Your Excellency, I am the commander of the Castam Liberation Front, one of the Four Witches, Maria Castado."

"ah."

Hearing this name, Yue Huasha beside Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment, then reached out his hand and tapped Duanmu Huai.

"It's her."

"Oh, that's how it is."

Hearing Yue Huasha's answer, Duanmuhuai was also relieved. You must know that according to the nature of the game's plot, if players want to find someone, they will definitely not be able to find it. It will only give you a clue, and when you run to the place foolishly, they will run away again——Duanmuhuai is even ready, will the witch be directly captured by the Herman army and brought back to Herman? Wang Guo's mental preparation, fortunately, this is not according to the routine of the game, people will send people to you directly!

So he didn't have to rush here, and then he got the news that Maria was captured, and then went to find the Herman army who captured her. After defeating the army, he learned that Maria had escaped, and then continued to track, and finally It's easy to find, and then the other party is caught again when they are about to meet, and then they continue to chase, and then the other party is captured back to Herman --- the current broken game finds people like this, it's really endless.

Of course, Maria didn't know what Duanmuhuai was thinking, and she introduced the current situation strictly according to the information she collected.

According to Maria, Kastam helped Rajer repel 5,000 soldiers from the Kingdom of Herman before, but then 4,000 soldiers from the Black Army and the Red Army of Lisas who were brainwashed joined , Facing the 9,000-strong Hellman Army, the Rajel United Garrison, which had only 1,500 men, was defeated and defeated. Rajel was occupied, and the reinforcements led by the Four Witches only had more than 100 people and returned to Casta. m.

However, just when the Hellman Army was about to launch an offensive against Kastam, Duan Muhuai appeared and killed the captain and the devil apostle Sapphire, and the death of the devil apostle Sapphire led to the death of the 4,000 soldiers of Lisas. The brainwashing was canceled, and because of this, when the Lisas soldier was brainwashed and saw that there was actually a Herman soldier beside him, although he didn't know what was going on, he still hacked at him without saying a word.

The Herman soldiers didn't expect that the brainwashing of the Lisas people would be lifted, and they were caught off guard and suffered a big loss, so there was the chaotic scene that Duanmuhuai saw after entering Rajel City.

After that, Maria, who got the news, arrived with Castam's reinforcements, and together with the assistance of General Bares of the Black Legion and General Rick of the Red Legion, who had also been brainwashed, they assembled Lisa. Si's soldiers, together with Castam's reinforcements, drove away the Hermann army, which was shaken by the death of the captain and the devil's apostle.

Then Michelle contacted them as the daughter of the mayor of Rajel, that's why they gathered here.

"I would like to express my thanks to you, Your Excellency the Inquisitor."

Barres bowed solemnly to Duanmuhuai.

"If it weren't for your bravery and good fighting skills, I'm afraid I would still be a minion and fight for the Hermans."

"Me too."

At this moment, another young man in bright red armor also stood up. He was the Lisas Red Army General Rick mentioned earlier.

"Your Excellency helped us get out of the control of the devil, the great kindness is beyond words..."

"There is no need to mention this."

Duanmuhuai waved his hand.

"It is the mission of the Inquisition to eradicate the aliens and heretics, and anyone who works with the devil will only be destroyed."

After a few polite words from both sides, Duanmu Huai stood aside and watched their meeting—after all, for the people of Free City, the biggest threat right now is the Hermann Army. And Duanmuhuai didn't bother to intervene in their internal military meeting. In fact, he came here to find Maria, but now... To be honest, Duanmuhuai's expectations for Maria are already very low. In his opinion, Maria is probably similar to Kukulu, a mechanic from the Magic Age with limited knowledge. It is estimated that even if it is dug, it is useless.

But... it's better to talk to the other party first.

Soon, the military meeting over there was over, and the two sides decided to gather troops to the free city of Reid as soon as possible after a short rest, and take advantage of the victory to defeat the other party before it can regroup.

Then after the meeting ended, everyone left to do their own things. It was only then that Duanmuhuai stepped forward.

"Hello, Miss Maria."

"Ah, hello, Your Excellency Judge, what can I do for you?"

Seeing Duanmuhuai talking to her, Maria was somewhat surprised, but she still asked curiously.

"I have something I want to talk to you about, do you have time?"

"this……………"

"What do you want with Maria?"

Faced with Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Maria was a little puzzled, but at this moment, suddenly, another person appeared, standing in front of Maria, staring at Duanmuhuai coldly. It was a girl with long green hair and a three-cornered hat that looked like a wizard.

"Who are you?"

"Ah, this is Maso Shizuka, one of the Four Witches, and my good friend..."

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was a little tense, Maria hurried out to smooth things over. Duanmu Huai nodded to her, and then looked at Maria again.

"I heard you have some research in mechanical engineering?"

"Huh? You want to discuss mechanical engineering with me?!"

Hearing this, Maria's eyes lit up immediately! But Duanmuhuai nodded and said.

"Actually, I do have some mechanical engineering problems and I want to talk to you."

"Of course no problem, I just happen to be going to the factory, let's talk while walking!"

If Maria was still somewhat afraid of Duanmuhuai before, then now she seems to have let go, at least she looks more talkative and outgoing.

So a group of people left Rajel's mansion and walked towards Maria's factory, and Maria also talked endlessly along the way.

"The era of swords and magic is coming to an end. In the future, we will usher in the era of machines that anyone can use and create! Look, like the Tulip No. 1 on my shoulder, future weapons will look like this ……”

While speaking, Maria proudly showed Duanmuhuai the bazooka she was carrying. At least from the appearance, it was indeed a very mature craft. Duanmuhuai looked at it for a while, and then asked a question.

"You built this weapon by yourself? You also solved the material problem?"

"certainly!"

Hearing this, Maria became more and more excited, jumping and jumping as she walked.

"In order to maintain the firepower, range, and stability of the Tulip-1 to the greatest extent, I have experimented with a variety of materials... I went to the volcano mine before, and finally found the trigger energy. ore………"

"Aha………"

Seeing Maria's eloquent speech, Maxiang Shizuka next to him helplessly stretched out his hand to pull the brim of his hat.

"It's starting again, Maria, the mechanical idiot..."

Along the way, Duanmuhuai and Maria were basically asking and answering, and no one else could get in the way. Through communication, Duanmuhuai could confirm that the girl named Maria in front of me did have a passion for mechanical engineering and a certain degree of enthusiasm. professional standard. Although in terms of the level of civilization in this world, her ideas are somewhat advanced, but compared to the Tribunal, they are somewhat behind... Well, all in all, it is still necessary to conduct certain audit tests on her to judge.

Just as Duanmuhuai was thinking, Maria had brought everyone to her factory, and then she proudly introduced her latest weapon to Duanmuhuai.

"Look, everyone, this is the secret weapon I made to resist Herman's army, the Tulip III! As long as it can be built, it will definitely defeat Herman's army!"

I saw that under the light, it was a vehicle full of metal, with a thick gun body and a steel body.

Well, it goes without saying, tanks.

And it's not the kind of tin box from World War I, it's closer to the modern tanks formed at the end of World War II!

etc!

"I remember that the invasion of the Herman Army was just a few days ago, right?"

"Ahahaha, I thought about it before..."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's question, Maria smiled embarrassedly.

"It happened that the Herman army invaded, so I wondered if it could be made..."

“……………………”

Good guy, your mechanical engineering level span is too big.

But if you think about it carefully, it is clearly a civilized world of swords and magic, but there are already refrigerators and color TVs... The civilization of this world is already very messy.

But... that's fine.

Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai's eyes suddenly brightened, and then he looked at Maria.

"Miss Maria, to tell you the truth, the reason why I came here this time is because I heard about you, so I came to see you."

"Find me?"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Maria froze for a moment, while Duanmuhuai nodded.

"To be honest, our trial court currently lacks talents in mechanical engineering, so I came here after hearing the name of a witch who specializes in mechanical engineering. I hope to invite you to join the trial court. And just From the current point of view, your level of mechanical engineering is indeed extraordinary."

"Hey hey hey..."

Hearing this, Maria smiled a little embarrassedly, but Duanmu Huai hadn't finished speaking.

"However... to be honest, I am hesitant. Although judging from the standards here, your level of mechanical engineering is very high. But judging from the standards of the court, I am not sure if you are qualified."

"Why?"

"Therefore, I plan to give you an assessment."

While speaking, Duanmuhuai stretched out his palm, and soon, a holographic projection appeared in front of Maria. Seeing this picture, Maria's eyes widened in surprise. She has already seen that the thing in front of her is very similar to the Tulip No. 3 she made, with crawlers, a huge steel body and artillery, and various parameters beside it.

"This is?!"

"This is the blueprint of the Leman Lux tank owned by the court, Miss Maria, I think you can see how powerful this tank is."

For this design drawing, Duanmu Huai was full of confidence. The Leman Ruth tank was once the most widely used tank during the Imperium of Man. It is strong and simple, easy to manufacture, and has the strongest reliability. It can adapt to the harshest and extreme environment in the galaxy. Not only that, but the engine of the Leman Rustank can also use any fuel to start. Although not very fast, the armor of the Leman Ruth tank is strong enough to withstand the attack of any enemy of the Empire.

"this…………………"

Looking at the holographic design in front of her, Maria almost popped her eyes out. Of course, she could see how powerful this tank was. Unlike the Tulip III, which is made by myself, which has only one main gun, the Leman Rustank has a secondary gun directly in front of the body armor in addition to the main gun, and there are two on its side wings. A heavy machine gun, not only that, but a bolter machine gun is also loaded on top of its body.

It was like a steel fortress moving on the battlefield. Any existence that dared to stand in front of it would be ruthlessly torn to pieces by its firepower.

Maria can be sure that once this tank appears on the battlefield, the Herman army will only be defeated! !

"So, I hope to make a deal with you, Miss Maria."

"trade?"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Maria came back to her senses and looked at Duanmuhuai, who nodded.

"That's right, I can give you all the blueprints of the Leman Russ tank, including its raw material data and casting process. You can also make this tank to fight Hermann—that's the deal, if you Accept this blueprint and make a tank, then I hope you can go to the Inquisition and work for us. If you think you can't do it, then stop here."

That's right, this is Duanmuhuai's test on Maria. At the beginning, he really didn't have much confidence in this girl, but when he saw that this girl actually pulled out a Hyundai in the post-World War II period in the era of magic civilization As for the tank, Duanmuhuai also changed his mind carefully. If Maria can really reproduce and produce a Leman Russ tank in this era with only the design process and blueprints, then she is considered qualified.

It would be a waste of money for such a cheating person not to be admitted to the trial court.

So Duan Muhuai said that this is a deal. The Leman Lust Tank is currently useless to the Tribunal, but it also comes from the knowledge of interstellar civilization, and it is valuable enough as a reward——as a mechanical engineer As an expert, it is impossible for Maria to be ignorant of this point. She must also know that there will be no free lunch in the world.

Once she chooses to accept this blueprint and manufacture the Leman Ruth tank, it means that she will enter the trial court to work...

"Maria——!"

Seeing her friend's silence, Maxiang Shizuka next to her looked at her with some anxiety, while Maria remained silent for a moment, then raised her head to look at Duanmuhuai.

"Excuse me, what kind of organization is the Tribunal?"

"To put it simply, our existence is to protect human beings and eliminate all existences that threaten human beings. Whether it is demons, or heretics who believe in demons, or monsters that threaten human beings, it is within our scope to deal with them."

Duanmu Huai spread his hands.

"Currently, the Inquisition is in the rebuilding stage. We lack manpower, so we want to poach corners. Moreover, since you like machinery, I'm not afraid to tell you that the Leman Rustank is just the least worth mentioning in the Inquisition. If you are willing to join Inquisition, you can also see more powerful machines beyond your imagination."

"real?!"

Hearing this, Maria's eyes lit up, and she looked at Duanmuhuai excitedly.

"That's right."

"Then... I am willing to accept this deal!"

While speaking, Maria stretched out her hand.

"I would like to join the Tribunal!"

"Wait, Maria?"

Seeing that his friend had made a decision so quickly, Moxiang Zhijinxiang next to him looked confused, but Duanmu Huai just reached out his hand and shook Maria.

"As much as I would like to say welcome...but you still have to complete the test."

"I know, it is to build this Leman Rus tank."

Looking at the design drawing in front of her, Maria's eyes burned with excitement, and then she looked at her friends around her.

"Shitsuka, please go and rule the others. The plan is temporarily postponed. We will attack Red again in a month!"

"One month later? But didn't you say that soldiers are expensive and fast......"

"The situation has changed!"

Maria shook her head vigorously, pointing to the blueprint in front of her.

"I can be sure that as long as this can be produced, even if the entire Herman Kingdom's army is dispatched together, it will never fail!"

"this……………"

Seeing his friend's fanatical yet confident expression, Maxiang Shizuka didn't know what to say for a moment. As a magician, she certainly has powerful magical powers, but even she knows that even a magician's power is limited. However, Maria now said that just relying on such an iron box can turn the tide of the battle and defeat an army of thousands of people...

"All right."

Finally, Maxiang Shizuka nodded helplessly.

Perhaps times have really... changed.
