Chapter 59 Dwarf Warrior
On the podium, Teacher Heather held a teaching stick and pointed at the image of the dwarf army displayed in the crystal ball, and explained:
These powerful warriors are best at defensive operations. The fortresses they built among the mountains are all powerful fortresses that are the easiest to defend and difficult to attack. Their capital, Karak-Karak, is also known as the most difficult city in the old world. Their army structure also tends to defend.
Because of its excellent forging ability and alchemy skills, and its large number of precious metal ore veins, the dwarves' weapons and equipment can be said to be the best in the old world. A large number of dwarves heavy infantry wearing full-body armor, holding round shields and double-edged battle axes are the backbone of the dwarves' kingdom. Because there are many mountain combat and defense operations, this configuration cannot be said to be incorrect.
If it is a plain combat, the dwarf clan also has the super long spear phalanx tactics learned from their allies, humans of the Sigma Empire. They are equipped with dwarf thunderers equipped with muskets, and dwarf heavy crossbowmen holding giant crossbows. Although the power is not strong, their combat power is still very good.
In addition to these basic troops, the dwarves also possess the most advanced artillery technology in the old world. Generally, most people think that their artillery technology is higher than that of the Sigma Empire. Even tens of thousands of years ago, the dwarves had made terrifying chariots wrapped in heavy steel plates and metal aircraft that could fly freely. These terrifying combat equipment once allowed the dwarves to occupy the absolute dominance of the old world.
Their army was fully armed, composed of indestructible steel chariots, giant cannons and high-speed moving aircraft. The army of metal and machinery was everywhere. No matter what kind of enemy it was, it could crush it. In that era, the dwarves were well deserved, the most powerful combat race in the old world. Not to mention the various war machinery created by their terrifying rune magic. Among them, the representative is the Doomsday Anvil, whose lethality is comparable to that of the giant dragon and demon."
Speaking of this, Teacher Heather coughed lightly, stopped the students from whispering, and then continued: "Of course, for various reasons, the dwarf's technology has been lost in large quantities. Today's steam technology products are nothing but a few warships. Everyone can rest assured."
Just like this, the lesson passed. Vared also learned something and asked the question: "Since the weapon of musket is very lethal and not very technical. Why do we Sylvania do not imitate this weapon and equip the skeleton soldiers to increase their combat effectiveness?"
"This question is very good." Teacher Heather nodded and explained: "In fact, some of the same tribes tried before this, but because the problem was too big, it was not successful. Ordinary skeleton soldiers could not withstand the recoil of the musket ejection. The bones would be dislocated after several launches. For more advanced undead, they had better combat methods. Muskets seemed to be redundant for them. It was precisely for these two reasons that there were no musket soldiers in Sylvania's army."
Vared nodded, saying that he understood. However, he still had plans to develop gunpowder troops in his heart. Although the caster and magic attack device are better than gunpowder weapons in a sense. But after all, the caster needs talent and a lot of resources. All gunpowder weapons require is technology and training.
When Vared thought of this, he asked another question: "I have heard that Chaos Dwarfs in the north have made an invention. They fuse the demon's bodies with gunpowder weapons and cast the terrifying weapon Chaos Hell Cannon, a semi-demon and semi-mechanical terrifying weapon. Its power is much stronger than ordinary giant cannons and even magic attack devices. Is this true?"
Teacher Heather was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded: "It's true, I have also heard of this kind of rumor... Because of the influence of chaos, the infected dwarves became crazy and extreme. Therefore, the civilization they developed is, in a sense, more prosperous than the dwarf kingdom. As for the weapons of half-mechanical and half-demons, it is not impossible to appear. In fact, Silvania also owns the works that combine mechanical power with magic. For example, the Screaming Skull Chariot is the representative of it..."
Valed was silent when he heard this, screaming in the skull chariot, and even the wooden racks and stone catapults dared to compete with other people's giant cannons? It's really...
In this way, the day ended again. Vared found Anne who was waiting for him at the entrance of the academy, and then rode a carriage with him and went home. After capturing all the Stryg rebels a few days ago, there was no enemy in the entire Earl Castein leader. Therefore, there was no need to send troops to escort them.
The two of them rode together in a carriage. There was an endless wilderness, golden farmland and forests. When the sun set, the light afterglow sprinkled on their faces through the mottled shadows of trees. The sound of streams flowing and the crunching sound of wheels rolling in their ears. It seemed that there were only the two of them left in the world.
The atmosphere was quite good. Anne closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, leaning on Valed's shoulder. She only felt happy. If she kept walking like this, she would never stop.
Vared gently slid his fingers over Anne's side face and felt her trembling slightly. He knew that she was not actually asleep. But he didn't expose it. Just let the girl with short orange hair rest on his shoulders, because he also thought it was good.
However, such a good artistic conception soon disappeared. When the carriage appeared beside the exterior wall of the Dekenhof Castle, the tall city wall blocked the sun. There were no more fields and woodlands around. There were only a gray wasteland. At the same time, a melodious and slightly sad song came into the ears of the two people. The sound was not loud, but it was heard very clearly. I was probably using some magical means.
Such a pleasant singing made Valed intoxicated and couldn't help but praise: "It's such a sound of nature." However, Anne, who had to pretend to have just woken up, seemed very disgusted with the voice. She secretly complained in her heart that the owner of the voice had ruined her affairs.
With such a completely different mood, the carriage stopped at the gate of the castle. Valed pulled Anne's hand and jumped out of the carriage. At the same time, on the balcony of Madame Windsor's room on the second floor, a small-looking girl saw Valed and couldn't help but scream "Oh" when she saw Valed.
Vared had a sharp ear and heard that the voice was the one who sang before. He looked up and saw that there was a girl next to his mother, Madame Windsor, who had a somewhat similar appearance to her temperament. She also had a faint aristocratic temperament, with light golden curly hair, and blue eyes. It was easy to see that there was a blood relationship between them.
The girl saw Valed looking at her, her cheeks suddenly turned red, and she smiled sweetly at Valed.
