Although we have the basis for sending a telegram in a fantasy world, Snooker still needs to think about how to send a telegram.
Although the telegraph machine has never been absent from various war films in Snorri's previous life, Snorri only knew a set of "Morse code" and its general principles. How to transplant it still needs to be studied.
"It took me such a long time to barely finish encoding the twenty-six letters of the common language. As for the commonly used symbols, abbreviations of common terms, and communication procedures, I will find time later! If I continue like this, I will go bald!
"Snorri thought to himself.
Suddenly, he was startled by a blast of "Woo!" and "Woo!" horns.
"What happened? Where is the horn blowing?" Snorri took off his war hammer from the hook on the side of the blue sheep, waving it while looking around.
He couldn't see clearly in the mist in the mountains. At this time, the dwarves around him couldn't help laughing when they saw this.
"Cousin, this is the cry produced by the wind in the mountains!" Balin's voice came faintly from the side and behind.
"Do you know why Karak-Horn got its name?" Balin asked, and after Snorri replied in the negative, he began to demonstrate his knowledge.
Since Cousin Tommy joined Snorri's team and successfully sold some arms in Forge Iron Castle and several subsequent settlements, the consultant in Bahrain has felt some pressure, and he has begun to show himself more actively. Snow
Li is quite satisfied with this healthy competition.
"The Hornburg was named after the sound produced by the local mountain wind blowing through the narrow mountain pass. The tribesmen living here further built various wind chambers to amplify the sound, which was used to convey messages, summon warriors, and scare away wandering trolls.
." Bahrain explained.
"Karak-Horn is one of the few mountain fortresses built after the War of Vengeance, but she guards the Winterfang Pass, the Border Princedom, the mercenary kingdom of Tyrell, and our people living in the Dome Mountains who want to enter the empire.
It is indispensable for all forest lands to pass through this passage." Bahrain then introduced the geographical location of the Horn Castle.
"Although the Montenegro region lacks many rare minerals that we cherish such as meteorite and gemstones, relying on such superior geographical conditions and relatively rich local iron ore resources, Karak-Hearn has developed rapidly, forming a
The trade center is also the most important fortress in the Black Mountains."
After listening to Balin's introduction, Snorri nodded repeatedly. The ancestors once said, "Only by forging iron can you become a blacksmith." He also needs to gain knowledge during his travels and better understand the world.
There is an old saying in the Cathay Empire in the East: "Looking at the mountain and running to death!" What's more, this is just hearing the sound but not seeing it!
Snorri found a sheltered spot in a mountain col and arranged for the convoy to set up camp. As planned, they would not arrive at the Horn Castle until tomorrow afternoon.
Early the next morning, Snorri got up and covered their munitions with tarpaulins together with the merchants from Torrent Pass.
Since it was close to an important city and the security on this section of the road was quite good, Snorri simply arranged for the Thunder gunners and the artillery crew members to put away their weapons.
Although Snorri believed that Lord Arik Luvson would not take any action against him and his caravan for carrying firearms, there was no harm in respecting the other party's preferences without affecting the overall situation.
What?
In the afternoon, under the sunset glow of dusk, Snorri came to the side entrance of the Horn Castle. Its main entrance faced the Dongya Pass, with the black mountains at its back. Near the side entrance was the famous Mountain Horn.
Looking at those uncanny natural caves and cleverly constructed wind chambers, Snorri couldn't help but marvel at the wisdom of his people.
At this time, it seemed that the dwarves in the city had made some adjustments. Some wind chambers changed their angles, and the horn sound of "Woo! Woo!" became clearer and more cheerful.
When Snorri was still five hundred meters away from the convoy, the side door suddenly opened, and a group of dwarves poured out, first of all a Hammer Guard.
Seeing these people, Snorri knew that this meant that the Lord of Karak-Horn, Arik Lufson, had personally come out to greet him.
Snorri climbed down from the blue sheep, straightening his cuffs and collar that were wrinkled by the wind as he walked.
"Welcome to the Horn Castle! People of the Eternal Peak! May the Ancestor Goddess always protect you, respected Master Snorri!" As Snorri approached, the dwarf at the front of the team spoke.
"Greetings to you in the name of the High King! Lord of Karak Hern!" Snorri bowed in return.
He saw that the dwarf in front of him was very capable and strong, and his equipment was also very recognizable.
What he was wearing was not the meteorite armor commonly seen on dwarf lords but a golden leather armor, but Snorri knew that this was also a piece of equipment of legendary quality: the Kairipi-Klad Armor, which was established
The first lord of the Horn Castle killed a giant dragon that was originally entrenched in the Black Mountains and used its dragon skin to create it.
In addition to the leather armor that glows golden in the setting sun, Arik's helmet is also very eye-catching. The equipment has a pair of huge standing objects - an eagle's wings are displayed on each side.
It can be determined that the raw materials for this thing were provided by the ancestors of the Horn Castle who did not know how to protect wild animals.
Based on the size of the wings, Snorri secretly guessed that the eagle was most likely not wild, but probably a giant eagle domesticated by the wood elves in the Athel Loren forest. If that was the case, wearing such a helmet would undoubtedly be
This is a provocation to the wood elf ladies.
This somewhat exaggerated-looking equipment made Arik himself a little small, but Snorri couldn't laugh at all, because he knew that this was another piece of legendary equipment.
The Falcon Helmet, undoubtedly named after its unique shape, can greatly enhance the user's vision and agility.
Snorri was secretly astonished by the strength of the Horn Castle. Although Lord Arik did not carry any weapons, no one would doubt that it must be of legendary quality. So the royal family here has at least three legendary equipment, even in the entire Mountain Kingdom.
That’s too much.
The two dwarves looked at each other, and Snorri found that Lord Aric was about the same age as Brother Gnom. His beard was all black and had just grown over his abdomen. He looked resolute and seemed a little unsmiling.
The convoy entered the city under the leadership of the Hornburg people. About a half of Karak-Hearn is exposed on the surface. The underground part is mainly mines and storage rooms, so most of the residents here live on the surface.
Snorri found that the ratio of humans here was horribly high, far beyond what could be compared to several cities in the World's Edge Mountains. The humans were almost one to one with the dwarves, and because of their taller stature, they generally looked taller than this.
More.
