Tome of Blood

As soon as Charlotte entered the city, she saw the army escorting Prince Philip south.

This is the first time Charlotte has seen a professional regular army of the Kingdom since she came to this world, all in standard armor, and all of them are superhumans.

Although most of them have not yet entered the rank, the equipment is extremely sophisticated, and the proportion of those entering the rank is very high.

Charlotte compared her own armored knights with it, and soon found that her team was far behind by more than a little bit in terms of extraordinary strength and equipment.

They also wear armor all over their bodies, but the armor of their own knights is chain mail and scale armor made of fine iron, while the armor of the regular army of the kingdom is brighter and shinier. It is plate armor made of fine steel, with magic crystals inlaid on the chest and Mithril.

Charlotte, who has lived in two lives, still knows a little about plate armor, chain mail, and scale armor, and also knows the gap between them.

Chain mail is generally made of iron wire or iron rings, and each ring is buckled with the other four rings, like a net lock; scale armor is composed of layers of nails, which look like fish scales; Plate armor is quite different. It is made of large pieces of plate-shaped metal that have been shaped. It is a real top-level armor, and the craftsmanship is even more difficult.

Under the same weight, the protection and flexibility of plate armor is much higher than that of other armors. Even in Blue Star, it cannot be said to be a thing of an era. Plate armor gradually became popular after the 14th century. , but chain mail and scale armor existed in BC.

Not to mention those high-ranking officers, the shiny plate armor on their bodies is even more exquisitely carved with intricate magic patterns. It is surprisingly adamantine enchanted armor with a large amount of mithril, and its protection is comparable to the body of the Silver Moon Knight.

If the two sides really come to a charge, I'm afraid it's not that my side will be completely smashed in minutes...

All in all, it's pretty eye-popping.

"Sebas, can you defeat these regular troops by yourself?"

Charlotte glanced at the accompanying flame elf and asked curiously.

Sebastian pondered for a moment towards the regular army of the kingdom that was active in the streets and alleys, and said:

"As long as you don't meet them on the battlefield, of course you can fight."

"Oh? Can't beat it on the battlefield?"

Charlotte's heart twitched slightly.

Sebastian said in a deep voice:

"On the battlefield, they formed a battle formation and a forbidden magic formation, and they had the blessing of a mage, like an iron plate, and they were often led by a superhuman of the second level of Silver Moon. Unless they reached the blazing sun, lunatics would fight They hit hard."

"Forbidden magic circle?"

Charlotte was a little curious.

"Yes, master, have you seen those magic crystals on the top of their armor? That's a subset of the Forbidden Magic Circle. A regular army like this has at least five hundred people in each army. They are walking on the battlefield themselves." The magic circle can limit the extraordinary power of the enemy within a certain range, and directly suppress the extraordinary power released and resonated by the second level of Silver Moon."

Sebas said.

As he spoke, he let out a long sigh:

"The professional regular army of each kingdom is one of the few existences that can beat higher-level transcendents on the battlefield, and it is also a nightmare for middle- and low-level transcendents..."

After listening to Sebastian's words, Charlotte was thoughtful.

After traveling to this world for a year, she is no stranger to Miria's extraordinary system.

In the world of Miriam, the four extraordinary ranks, Fanxing, Yinyue, Blazing Sun, and Legend, correspond to the power of low-level, middle-level, high-level and sanctuary respectively.

Not to mention the Legendary Sanctuary where the power of the law begins to be controlled, among the other three levels, the low level is where individual power breaks through the limits of mortals, the middle level is the ability to release power and resonate, and the high level is the qualitative change of spiritual power, which can directly interfere with reality... …

If there is a forbidden magic circle that can ban the ability to release power and resonate magic power, then the superhumans of the second level of Silver Moon may not be able to please them in front of these iron cans.

"Of course, if you encounter the blazing sun, they should be the ones running away. On the battlefield, the blazing sun is the real natural disaster. Under the blazing sun, everyone is an ant."

Sebastian said again.

Blazing sun...

Charlotte thought about it.

Indeed, Chi Yang is the real trump card of many big forces.

She has seen the combat power of the Great Knight of the Trial Office. It is a terrifying force that can easily destroy a town with a single gesture. It is far more terrifying than the second level of Silver Moon.

However, Chi Yang is quite rare.

After leaving the Principality of Boulder, Charlotte has never met a Chi Yang along the way.

"Of course, because Chiyang is too destructive, each country in Miria prohibits Chiyang from taking the initiative to participate in the frontal battlefield of the war between domestic lords. Only when two kingdoms are at war, Chiyang will be used as a strategic level Let the strength go."

"As for the legend...I'm afraid it can only appear in the war of destroying the country."

Sebastian continued to popularize science.

Charlotte nodded knowingly.

From this point of view, even if she returns to the territory in the future and there is friction with other lords in the kingdom, and a war breaks out, the second level of Silver Moon will be the most encountered on the battlefield.

Even if other lords have blazing sun professionals, they won't take part in the battle directly, but as long as they don't take part in the battle directly, with the power liberated by the true ancestor, she should still be able to deal with it.

There are many restrictions on the power above the high level in the dispute of Miria, which is determined by the rules of the game of Miria's extraordinary system.

Without rules, Miriam would have been beaten to pieces by a high-ranking transcendent long ago.

And the result of this is that after the number of middle and low-level transcendents reaches a certain scale, they will also be a huge force that cannot be ignored.

Unless you have the strength to ignore the rules, unless you have the confidence to compete with the civilized world of Miria, otherwise, you still have to play according to the rules of the civilized world.

This also made Charlotte couldn't help but think of the gods' rule over Miriam.

In Myria, the power of the gods is stronger, but they will not come to the world easily.

In addition to the fact that it is difficult for God to descend because of its too strong power, there may also be reasons for protecting Miria from being destroyed by the power of the gods.

"When I return to Castel Territory, I will raise an army like this."

Looking at the excellent regular army of the kingdom, Charlotte said with a little envy.

"Then we have to find a way to earn more Quintana. Did you know? The price of the extraordinary armor of these regular troops is five figures in the black market, and the price of the plate armor of those officers is even more outrageous, and because it is enchanted equipment , It is not a small consumption to maintain. To build these plate armors, the kingdom has a fixed source of extraordinary materials, and the cost may be relatively low, but we can only buy them."

Sebas said.

Charlotte: ...

Fuck, I suddenly feel like I'm not that rich anymore!

...

Castel's convoy was arranged by the envoy of the Duke of Moon Protection to one of the most luxurious hotels in Anluo City, while Charlotte was invited to rest in the Duke's mansion.

After the convoy was settled, it was already evening, and Charlotte naturally attended the dinner at the Duke's Mansion, accompanied only by Sebastian, Nice, Lottie, who was the accompanying priest, and Shirley, the personal maid.

The Yuehu Principality is also considered to be located in the hinterland of the New Moon Kingdom, far richer than Boulder, as can be seen from the more luxurious decoration of the Duke's Mansion.

The banquet hall can accommodate at least a thousand people. The crystal lights on the dome are radiant, and the murals and decorations on the walls are exquisite.

Charlotte subconsciously compared it with her own manor.

Although the level of luxury of their own manor is not much worse than that of the duke's mansion in Yuehu Principality, it is not comparable in scale.

Not to mention the guard knights who had just entered the duke's mansion, Charlotte had never seen any plate armor that was lower than Fanxing, and the same uniform standard plate armor, obviously the same style as the regular army of the kingdom.

The black cat Niss said that the Principality of Boulder and the Principality of Violet are two remote regions in the kingdom, one in the south and one in the north. Leaving aside the Principality of Violet, she vaguely felt the poverty of the Principality of Boulder.

I am afraid of comparison in everything. Compared with the Principality of Yuehu, whether it is the density of towns in the Principality, the appearance and infrastructure of the capital, the luxury of the Duke's mansion and the number of extraordinary people...you can see the gap in Bold.

What's more, at the moment of entering the banquet, there was a faint induction and warning from the blood scripture in Charlotte's consciousness...

At the venue, there is a blazing sun!

Charlotte became vigilant almost immediately, and put away her thoughts of using the blood magic of the domination department to divert the nobles' attention.

Like every banquet in the past half month, Charlotte became the focus as soon as she entered the venue.

This is how beautiful people are, not to mention that Charlotte's beauty with half-elven blood is almost to the point of foul.

The Castel family was already known for their beauty, but Charlotte, who became a blood family and was influenced by the Holy Book of Blood, has become more noble and naturally eye-catching.

Of course, the aristocratic dress Sebas chose for his master also played a certain role, fully embodying the girl's elegance and pure beauty.

And when everyone knew Charlotte's identity, more nobles gathered and became more enthusiastic.

A young, rich and unmarried beautiful countess, this buff has stacked up a lot.

Even though Charlotte had made an oath, it still made many nobles feel longing and longing.

After all, the scandal of the Holy Royal Court in the church in Boulder has spread throughout the kingdom. Who knows whether the current Countess of Castel is still willing to fall to the church?

If she is really lucky, not to mention one more famous beauty, she can also abduct half of the Duchy of Boulder!

"My lord, may I ask you to dance?"

"Master Castel, you are as charming as the moonlight tonight, may I invite you to dance with me?"

Enthusiastic nobles rushed to send invitations to Charlotte.

The specifications of the banquets in the Duke's Mansion were far from those of the counts, viscounts, and even the baron's that Charlotte attended all the way. Throwing a brick at random could hit the son or even the heir of any count's family.

The nobles around Charlotte competed to announce their names and issued invitations, almost none below the title of earl, and there were even two marquises who did not even have the Duchy of Boulder.

The corners of Charlotte's eyes twitched slightly as he was surrounded by stars, feeling helpless in his heart.

Fortunately, she has a lot of experience along the way.

I saw her showing an apologetic expression, the tiredness visible to the naked eye was visible on her pitiful and beautiful face, her delicate and soft voice was touching, and her gesture of pinching the corner of her skirt was elegant and charming:

"Thank you very much for your kindness, but... I'm really sorry..."

"I've been on the road for too long. I'm really tired today. I'm afraid I don't have the energy to dance with you."

The girl's voice is delicate and sweet, and her eyes are as blue as the sky, innocent and flawless, making people unable to help feeling affectionate.

Looking at her big watery eyes and somewhat pale face, the words of invitation from the nobles almost immediately stuck in their throats, and they couldn't bear to say them any more.

Charlotte finally got rid of the siege.

And just when Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief, noise came from the entrance of the hall.

Charlotte's heart moved, and she looked towards the entrance, and saw that it was the lord of the Moonguard Duchy, the Duke of the Moonguard, John de Anlo, who was followed by two well-dressed nobles, a man and a woman.

The Duke of Yuehu is a middle-aged nobleman who looks a little thin. He is also a third-rank professional in Chiyang, and he is also an archmage.

As far as Charlotte knows, he is one of the four legion commanders of the New Moon Kingdom, and also holds the title of advisor to the Kingdom's cabinet.

By the way, according to the records in the study of Castel Manor, the Duke of Moonguard and Castel also have a small friendship.

There is a history involved.

In the Second Star-Moon War, the army of the Duke of Boulder fought with the Second Army led by the Duke of Moonguard. The Earl and his wife are also companions.

Seeing Charlotte, Duke Yuehu immediately showed a warm smile:

"Your Excellency the Earl of Castel, right? Haha, I haven't seen you for many years, and now you look so... um, you're so pretty."

Charlotte: ...

You just changed your mind after hesitating when looking at my height, right?

Did you hesitate before opening your mouth? !

What's wrong with being short?

Have you eaten your rice?

She took a deep breath, pinched the corner of her skirt and gracefully bowed to Duke Yuehu, looked up at him and smiled and said:

"Charlotte of Castel, I have met the Guardian Duke of the Moon."

After saluting, Charlotte couldn't help but look at the two nobles beside Duke Yuehu.

On the left is a black-haired man with a handsome face. The gorgeous robe is inlaid with a crescent moon pattern representing the royal family. He is smiling and bright.

On the right is a woman who looks to be in her twenties and thirties, also smiling.

She was wearing a burgundy dress, and she looked a bit like Leno, with curly golden brown hair and blue-gray eyes.

However, when Charlotte saw the pair of blue-gray eyes of the female nobleman, her heart skipped a beat.

He was obviously smiling, but through the eyes of the other party, Charlotte couldn't see a trace of emotion, and even felt an inexplicable sense of emptiness.

That kind of emptiness gave her a very strong sense of déjà vu...

"Let me introduce, this is His Royal Highness the Third Prince and his beloved wife, Ms. Eleanor."

Noticing Charlotte's gaze, Duke Yuehu took the initiative to introduce.
