Chapter 730 News From the Mountains
"This is... your ability?" It took Wendy a while to react. update the fastest
"She can't hear," Annie said. "After turning into a weapon, Broken Sword will lose the ability to communicate with the outside world. Only when you hold her, can she perceive the world through your five senses."
Is that so? Wendy hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and reached out to gently hold the hilt of the sword. In an instant, she felt as if she had more consciousness in her mind. At this moment, the sword blade merged with her, as if it had become a part of her body. Not only that, Wendy also felt that her eyesight and hearing were much sharper, and her whole body was full of strength.
"This is……"
Symbiosis. The sound of a broken sword sounded in my mind, when you pick me up, everything I have will be attached to you. Speaking of this, her voice seemed to reveal a trace of regret. Unfortunately, I have been in poor health since I was a child, and my strength is limited. Even if I add it to you, it will not be of much help.
It turns out that the reason why I feel full of power is because I inherited the ability of Broken Sword.
Wendy raised the weapon and carefully looked at the hilt of the sword. It was warm and soft to the touch, like a living thing. The shape of the blade is a bit weird, the length is no more than about an arm, but it is as thin as a finger, the front is flat and the back is round, it is not so much like a sword, it is more like an enlarged needle. If you look closely, you can still see the finely arranged stripes on the body of the sword, as if it is bound by countless silver filaments.
Wendy couldn't help thinking of the striking silver hair on Broken Sword.
"How long can you maintain this form?"
If it doesn't change repeatedly, it can continue forever.
It seems to be the same as Maggie, she thought, only the moment of change consumes a lot of mana.
Maisie? Do you mean that huge pigeon?
Wendy was stunned for a moment before she realized that as long as she stuck to Broken Sword, the other party would be able to see what she was thinking. This made her slightly flustered, after all, there were some things she didn't want anyone to know.
Your mood is a little fluctuating... What is this, cloth tape?
"It's nothing." Wendy quickly inserted the blade back into the ground, and looked at Annie. "Ahem, can anyone be connected to the Broken Sword?"
"Theoretically, as long as she is willing to accept it, ordinary people can also get her power," Annie nodded, "but in that state, she is just an extra-hard weapon, and only in the hands of a witch can she exert her power." Show real strength."
"The witch...in the hands?"
"Yes," Annie seemed to have seen something, and said calmly, "Besides, being connected doesn't mean spying on consciousness. As long as you don't focus on your current thoughts, Broken Sword won't be able to detect your emotions."
"I understand," Wendy calmed down and grasped the hilt of the sword again.
Did I say something wrong just now? I'm sorry, I won't ask such a question casually again, Broken Sword's eager voice immediately appeared in her mind.
"No, it's nothing..." She suddenly thought of a question, "If I let you go suddenly, what would you see?"
It will become pitch black, without sound or touch, as if floating in nothingness.
Sure enough, this kind of experience of losing all senses in an instant is definitely not very pleasant. Thinking of this, Wendy slowed down her voice as much as possible and said, "It is I who should apologize...don't worry, I won't just leave you alone again .”
Dagger seemed a little surprised, and after a while, he replied softly, um.
"By the way, Anne said, only witches can display your true strength?"
That's right, if I fight only in the form of a weapon, I will be injured if I bump too much. However, the witch can improve the sharpness and attack range of the blade by injecting magic power, and even stab the enemy without touching it.
Wendy injected magic power into Broken Sword according to her words, and the silver sword body was immediately covered with a layer of hazy white light, like a continuously flowing mist. At the same time, she felt that the level of magic power in her body was dropping rapidly, and it was obvious that this state could not last for too long.
Under the urging of the broken sword, Wendy quickly swung the long sword at a branch of an olive tree, and saw an extremely sharp air flow pouring in from the tip of the sword, cutting the branch in two instantly.
"Is this... the wind?" she asked in surprise.
"The injected magic power will reflect the power of the sword holder to a certain extent. It turns out that you are a battle witch." Broken Sword was a little surprised, "If it was Annie, she would not be able to let the ability leave the blade."
"So that's what happened," Wendy couldn't help but think of Anna's black fire, what would happen if she hit her with all her magic power? I'm afraid that compared with the Divine Will Seal that triggered the thunder, its momentum would not be any worse. However, Anna has always been one of the most important witches in the alliance, and is also His Majesty's beloved, so it is basically impossible for her to go to the battlefield in person.
As for the remaining battle witches... She thought for a while but couldn't come up with a suitable candidate, so she simply drew a circle behind Broken Sword's name. Who should cooperate with Broken Sword's ability, it's up to His Majesty to decide.
*******************
When the high-pitched and melodious whistle came from the direction of the pier, Roland put down the quill in his hand and couldn't help stretching.
One long and two short, the whole dock resonates, this is the signal for the army to prepare and set off.
After completing the preparations for the battle, it only took one morning for the expedition team of the First Army to board the ship. With the sound of the whistle, the first batch of cement ships carrying soldiers will officially leave Neverwinter and head for Falling Dragon Ridge.
After that, many ships will take on the task of transporting ammunition and food, and the battle to regain the extreme southern border will not officially start until the old and new soldiers have assembled at Zhuolongling.
However, he finally took this step.
Roland glanced at the densely packed sketches on the table. It was the design drawing of the internal combustion engine. As the second-generation prime mover that completely replaced the steam engine, its importance to industry is self-evident, and it even changed the course of world history to a certain extent. From the initial piston engine and gas turbine to the later jet engine, it almost took up most of the sky of industrial power, and it was not until the birth of the electric motor that it shook its dominance.
Undoubtedly, as one of the most important mechanical categories in history, it will shine a new light in Neverwinter. The black water in the extreme south is an extremely critical part of this plan. If fuel oil can be extracted from it, the subsequent development will naturally follow. If not, he can only consider using alcohol as fuel. Even if it is technically feasible, the scale will definitely be restricted.
At this moment, Agatha suddenly knocked on the door and walked into the room.
"Your Majesty, there is news from the Taquila Witch." rw
