Sword of Daybreaker

Chapter 446 Broadcasting

For the people of the Hossman region, what they have experienced in recent times is even more complex than what their ancestors have experienced over the generations combined.

The Horsman family that ruled the land suddenly collapsed, and the owner of the castle was replaced by a "government officer" from Cecil. The big event of distribution followed, the disciplined army of Cecil replaced the rambunctious and greedy aristocratic private soldiers, and strictly carried out the orders of the new lord, and with these things came to this land, there was another one. Batch after batch of engineering teams, one construction area after another...

The new changes are so swift and violent, the effects are naturally good and bad.

Many people feel uneasy and at a loss when faced with all kinds of new things, and some people cannot understand the meaning of the unheard of "Cecil's Law" and "Cecil's Order", and have long been accustomed to a loose and chaotic way of life. The Hosmans often get together to discuss the "weird" parts of the new law, such as the ban on urinating on the street, the centralized disposal of garbage, etc., while others have also noticed that the Cecil has been better after the arrival. the side -

The officials of the council are obviously more reasonable than the lords and knights. The laws they promulgate are strictly enforced, not according to the wishes of the magistrates; Cecil soldiers are more disciplined, and they have occupied castles and outposts without robbing nearby civilians. even helping to repair the house; the land allocation promised by the new lord is not empty words, at least the first new residents who migrated to the surrounding city have got their own land, although many people are worried that the lord will be at any time These lands will be taken back again, but at least they have land temporarily in their hands...

For most people, they don't care who the lord is on their head, nor which flag is hung on the castle. As long as they can ensure the food and clothing of the people, the ruler can harvest unimaginable things in this era. The support of the new government office at least guarantees this, so even if the implementation of the new decree is not easy, the transformation and construction of this land by the Housman government office is still proceeding according to the schedule.

Old Horsman Castle - the current location of the Council Office, a group of magicians and soldiers are busy in the square in front of the castle.

These "engineering teams" from the Cecil area have been frequent visitors to the territory recently. As the situation in the entire Hosman area stabilized, more and more Cecil construction teams have entered the area, bringing them with them. Come with incredible magic technology and build houses and various facilities with a variety of magical machines.

The Hosmans call those magicians in cloth work clothes "Cecile wizards" because they always see magicians building houses with magical spells, but these magicians call themselves They are ordinary people, so the locals gave them such a name.

Whenever the "Cecile Wizards" work,

There will always be people watching - the Hosmans have gradually become accustomed to the various magical things that the Cecils brought to this land, and have been exposed to the incredible magic technology little by little under the propaganda of the Government Office. , but after all, the time is too short, the so-called "magic era" is still a novel and strange term for these locals. Ordinary people can't resist this curiosity.

Many people are gathered around the square at the moment, guessing what the magicians and soldiers are doing, guessing what those strange metal, crystal, and rune devices are used for. Although some soldiers are guarding the construction site, they It didn't mean to drive away the crowd.

The Hosmans have probably figured out the temperament of these mighty soldiers: these soldiers are really disciplined, even ordinary soldiers are self-disciplined like the most upright knights, as long as they don't violate the law, these soldiers with swords will never find them Civilian trouble or extortion of money.

"Guess what they're going to do?" Someone in the crowd asked curiously, "You came early, do you know?"

The person being questioned shook his head: "I don't know - they were busy when I came. But I guess it's mostly street lights... Haven't they been building street lights all over the city recently."

"There are already street lights in this square, so what else is there to do," the third person next to him retorted, "Sooner or later, people from the Political Affairs Office will say something—by the way, does anyone know what was written in the notice on the square today? "

The first person to speak shook his head: "I'm illiterate. But it's probably still those new laws, not allowing defecation on the street, building toilets and garbage stations, etc..."

An old man standing at the back of the crowd heard it, and couldn't help muttering: "It's not allowed to poop on the street. To be honest, it really doesn't make sense."

The topic of the crowd is like this, sometimes the effort of a few words will be completely skewed to other places, and the point of discussion among several people will soon shift to those strange "Cecil Orders", and some people shake it. He nodded and muttered, "They even asked everyone to boil the water before drinking it - I want to say that although the gentlemen of the Government Affairs Office are all good people, these rules govern too much..."

"I think it makes sense to boil water. At least it doesn't have a strange smell after boiling the water-"

People began to discuss the new topic happily, and went further and further on this topic, but now the construction on the square has come to an end: after the tense work of the magicians, a strange large-scale installation was fixed in On the stone platform in the center of the square.

It was a peculiar device with a triangular base, a surface shimmering with runic light, and a crystal inlaid on top.

The magicians began to test the device, and lighted up the runes on its surface to confirm its status. The curious crowd around them gradually stopped talking and refocused their attention on this weird-looking thing, while the crowd was gradually mobilized. When curious, several groups of soldiers on horseback suddenly ran out of the castle and ran to the various exits of the square.

The shouts of these soldiers were heard:

"Horsman citizens! The great Gawain?? Duke Cecil wants to speak to you! Go and gather in the square!"

Gawain?? Cecil? Lord?

The lord will appear in the square? When did he come?

People looked at each other, and everyone's faces were blank. Of course they knew the name of their new lord, but they didn't expect the lord to appear in this place. coming?

And... Didn't I hear that the lord took the army to the north to fight? Is he already back? Coming back so soon...Is it a win? Or didn't it hit at all? Or do you mean... lose?

People were surprised and confused. People who were going to go home because they were tired of the construction also stopped abruptly, and stayed to discuss with others the incredible thing of "the sudden arrival of the lord". During the discussion, they saw another group of soldiers coming out of the castle and standing in line around the strange "magic device" that had just been set up in the center of the square.

The soldiers guarding the line seemed to prove that the lord was really coming, but they were guarding around a magic device... which made it hard to understand.

There are more and more people in the square.

At this moment, Hosman City is still an old-fashioned town. There is only a limited area around the castle, and the soldiers only notified those residents who were closer and could quickly get to the square. The residents who were full of curiosity and nervousness gathered on the square. Those who came late could not even find a place in the square, but could only climb to the roofs of nearby buildings, while those near the center of the square could not bear it at the moment. Can't help but be happy--

Fortunately, they watched the fun here early, and they occupied the best position at the moment.

The residents of Hosman City gathered and watched, and many of them were nervous and fearful: Gawain? Cecil's reputation is known throughout Ansu, and this The legendary hero conquered Hosman not long ago and became their lord, and now he wants to talk to them again, this is not an ordinary thing, not to mention - their ancestors did not have this opportunity...

After all, even the heir of Cecil's family can only go in and take a look at Gawain Cecil's coffin when he is sweeping the grave.

But the lord still did not appear, only a group of soldiers guarded the open space in the center of the square, and a dozen magic technicians were busy there.

The people outside the square couldn't even see what was going on inside, and people kept shouting and asking the people in front: "Is the lord here? Is the lord here? What does he look like?"

"The lord isn't here yet—but I saw the Daedalus Archon! Maybe the lord is coming soon?"

After a while, the magicians finally completed all the adjustments and successfully completed every test.

Daedalus, the consul of Hosman City, and several colleagues came to the square, and a magician came to him: "Consul - the test has been completed, and the signal has been connected."

The young consul took out the mechanical watch from his arms, glanced at the current time, then took a deep breath and calmed down a little nervousness, "Let's start - let's witness it together."

The magician nodded, turned around and gave instructions to his assistants: "Adjust to broadcast mode, sound and image are amplified in three levels, connect!"

The power to the device is switched on.

Under the gradually dimming sky, under the curious gaze of countless pairs of eyes in the square, a slight humming sound suddenly sounded, and then, a hazy and chaotic light suddenly appeared in the middle of the square.

The group of rays of light floated high in the sky, like a constantly shaking aurora curtain, which caused one after another exclamation in an instant, and before the exclamation was settled, the image in the light curtain shook and gradually stabilized. .

Gawain Cecil's figure appeared there, in the huge holographic projection.

Even those in the farthest reaches of the square could clearly see their lord.

Under the effect of the augmentation magic, a low and majestic voice resounded throughout the square:

"Glorious citizens of Cecil, good afternoon, I am your lord.
