Release that Witch Chapter 14: Ability
"Her Highness, how tall and how wide are you planning to build this wall?"
"At least fifteen feet high and six feet wide, four people can travel side by side," Roland nodded secretly. The specialty is different. First ask the technical parameters before determining the construction plan.
"Then it needs to dig a deep trench to stabilize the upper wall, and if the top is six feet wide and the wall is fifteen feet high, the width of the lower part is at least doubled," said Karl Swift answer. "This way It takes a lot of manpower to dig trenches. Your Highness, if you can give me 150 people, I should be able to dig this trench before Months of Demons arrives.
"A ditch can't stop Evil Beast," Roland said nothing.
"That ’s right. It takes three years to build a stone wall. If you only want to block Evil Beast, you do n’t need to build the wall so high, about twelve feet, and the width can be reduced by one third. The bottom is reduced to six feet. Trenching and wall-building are going on at the same time, and the number of people increases by two hundred ... In this way, I can complete it before the arrival of Months of Demons next year. "
Karl paused, then said, "Excuse me, Your Highness, it is not a good time to start. If the wall is not built in time, even if the trench is dug, it will be lost after soaking in the rain and snow throughout the winter. It ’s original function. Then you will spend more time and manpower to clear the softened trench and deepen the digging depth again. "
"If you say a wall is twelve feet high and four feet wide, how long will it take to dig a trench?"
"It should take one and a half months," Karl answer said.
"Then just follow this plan, trenching and masonry will be carried out at the same time, and the masonry will be completed before the arrival of Months of Demons." Roland waved and interrupted what Karl wanted to say, "I know what you are worrying about, let ’s take a look This is the latest work from Greycastle alchemical workshop. "
Naturally, he didn't have time to stick the stone bricks again to show Stonemason, but just dragged out the two pasted pieces to show it. Fortunately, no one dared to question the prince. When Karl heard that this alchemy adhesive called cement can be converted from liquid to solid between day and night, and produced extremely high adhesion, his face was exposed. Incredible shocked look.
Dedicating the first half of his life to the Stonemason Society, he can naturally realize how great this invention is. In addition to bonding stones, important is also able to shape the body at will. Isn't this equivalent to having any shape of stone directly without secondary cutting and grinding? It can abandon the time-consuming and labor-intensive processing stage, and the erection speed of any building will be raised to a new level. That alone is exciting enough!
Roland looked at each other with satisfaction and asked again, "How about, do you think three months is enough?"
Karl van Bate's voice is a little trembling, "If you're right, no, I mean ... if alchemical workshop is right in their description of this thing, I ... I'd like to try it." >
"Very good, I will let you write a detailed information on the use of cement, if there are other needs, talk to my Assistant Minister," Roland laughed, "Mr. Karl, now you are the administrative department A member. "
I saw Nana in the afternoon of The next day. The little girl looked at Anna blankly, grasping the corner of the clothes for a long time before saying a word, "Am I ... dead?"
When I first saw her, Roland had to admit that the power of witch not only gave them magical abilities, but also changed their appearance and temperament to some extent. She and Anna are completely different types, but both contain a unique charm. This feeling has nothing to do with age, and has nothing to do with living conditions. Even when Anna is waiting for death in the prison, the light emitted is still undiminished. Looking through the entire memory, whether it is the Greycastle's street warbler or the well-educated Miss noble, he has never felt this way. If you have to describe them, putting them together with witch is like a colored person in a black and white photo.
Karl van Bate, who brought her, retired with interest. Only Roland, Anna and Nana remained in the Xinggong Garden.
"You are not dead, Anna is alive and well," Roland held back a smile, "I am Fourth Prince Roland Wimbledon, and you are --"
"I'm Nana Pine," the little girl heard that she wasn't dead, and her expression came back to life. She ran straight to the side of Anna, and she said nothing to her, totally disregarding the identity of Greycastle, Roland. Roland naturally does not care about a little girl who is only fourteen or five years old. He sits against the round table, pours ale on himself, and admires the "daily" of two witch.
Anna is obviously a bit uncomfortable with the other party ’s acquaintance. Nana said that she should answer it after more than a dozen sentences. After all, Anna is only 17 years old, but already has the feeling of a big sister. Roland couldn't help wondering how great she would become when she grows up?
Until the speech rate of Nana gradually slowed down, he coughed twice and asked, "Miss Pine, listen to your teacher, have you awakened to witch?"
Roland prefers the word awakening to "fallen" as witch is called by most people. He doesn't innocently think that all witchs are pure and immaculate White Papers. When a malicious person gains strength, he will only cause greater damage. This is the same as weapon. It can create violence and resist violence. The key depends on who holds weapon. Maybe the witch massacre promoted by Church is based on facts, but it is too unfair to regard this as evidence of the witch group.
Nana's expression was stiff, and he whispered, "Will you hang me?"
"No, of course not. All the evildoers are on the gallows. You are not, nor is Miss Anna, so don't worry about this."
She took a breath and nodded, "I'm not sure ... the teacher said that witch is a demon power only after being tempted by Devil, but I have never seen Devil Ah?"
"When did you find yourself different?"
"About a week ago," muttered Nana. "I saw a bird broke its leg and wanted to help it. Then ... I felt something came out of me."
"Is something coming out?" Roland asked, "What next?"
"Yeah ... it suddenly surrounded the bird like a sticky water," Nana reclined his head and thought, "then the bird's legs will be fine."
Is her strength healing? Roland jumped in his heart, he knew very well what -- meant without antibiotics, without modern medicine, when wounds and infections were likely to die directly, and healing wounds quickly was equivalent to more lives. This ability has little effect on the progress of the entire civilization, but it has amazing significance for individual life.
He immediately walked to the door and asked the Knight outside to find a live chicken. If she can prove that what she said is true, she might be able to change the situation of Border Town witch being mercilessly persecuted.
