Chapter 63 Weak System
It has been more than half a day since I left Ellington. The light at noon is very fierce. Even a coachman who can bear hardships and stand hard work has to hide from the sun and stop the carriage to rest under the tree for a while.
Dunn covered his butt and walked out of the carriage with a weird look on his face.
Although he was in a carriage when he crossed before, he didn't sit for that long. Today is the first time he has been in a carriage for such a long time.
In just one morning, his bones were about to fall apart.
"It is obvious that there is such a long history of civilization, but the shock absorption problem of the carriage has not been solved..."
Tang En smiled bitterly, it seemed that he still had to solve this problem.
Although nothing resembling a rubber tree was found near Ellington, he was still able to come up with springs. Even if the tires were not damped, the damping effect of the frame would be much better if there were springs. [e1]
After putting this thought aside for a while, Dunn opened the package Fiona prepared for him, and then smiled wryly again.
Brown bread, bacon, and fresh milk.
It has been more than half a month since I came to Plandal, but I usually eat bread, barbecue, bacon, and a kind of mixed vegetable soup...
To be honest, eating these pollution-free foods felt pretty good at first, but after eating for a long time, Tang En missed the food on earth very much, even if I don’t mention those hearty Sichuan-style hot pots and copper stoves Shabu-shabu is just an ordinary scrambled egg with tomato. It is estimated that Tang En will drool.
However, it is a pity that Dunn has not found tomatoes at present, but there are many kinds of eggs...
The commonly used condiments such as chili, hemp pepper, star anise and fennel disappeared, which made Tang En very depressed.
If he can get chili peppers and sesame peppers, he can still try to restore Sichuan-style hot pot. After all, hot pot is not as complicated and demanding as other dishes. As long as it has enough flavor, it can also satisfy his cravings.
"Hey, let's go back and look for it, or it will really collapse..."
Dunn sighed, although Plandal is a world full of charm, unfortunately, there are too many places that modern people on earth who enjoy abundant material culture cannot adapt to.
"Big brother, what are you sighing?"
"Of course it's our lunch."
"Lunch? Lunch is good."
Eliya didn't feel as much emotion as Tang En. She was very happy to eat with the bread and bacon, which relieved Tang En's melancholy feeling a lot.
"Lord Lord, after lunch, we'd better take a rest before we set off."
The driver said cautiously: "The afternoon light is very fierce, the old man is not afraid, but the Lord may not be able to withstand it."
"No, let's go after dinner."
Tang En glanced at the sky: "It won't be hot in a while."
The coachman didn't know where Dunn got so much confidence, but since the lord has an order, of course he can only obey.
"By the way, what's your name?"
"Ford, sir."
The driver said respectfully: "It is my honor to serve you."
"Ford, you have been a coachman for so many years and have been to many places. Let me ask you, have you ever heard of a plant that is red and spiky? It feels very spicy when you eat it?"
"It's spicy?"
Ford was stunned for a moment: "Sir, I don't know what you mean by 'very spicy'."
"Uh……"
Dunn took a bite of the bacon with a tangled face. How could he convey the message of "spicy" to a world without the concept of "spicy"?
Suddenly, he snapped his fingers: "Oh, by the way, just eating it is like a fire in your mouth, and I really want to drink water."
"Fire in your mouth?"
Ford recalled for a moment and smiled: "Lord Lord, I probably know what you are talking about. Coincidentally, there is such a thing in Kasparmi Fort that we are going to, and the locals in Kasparmi call it devil's tip. tooth."
"Oh!?"
Tang En was refreshed and overjoyed: "Is it red? And cyan? The smell is pungent?"
"That's right, my lord."
Ford described the so-called devil's fangs in detail. Dunn smiled after listening. He was very sure that what Ford said was the pepper he was looking for.
It seems that this trip to Casparmi Castle can be a little unexpected?
After lunch, they hit the road again, and after they hit the road, the driver Ford was very surprised to find that it was really not hot.
Looking up, a white cloud blocked the strong light, making the surrounding temperature very comfortable, and even the two horses had strength.
Lord Lord is really powerful, this can be counted!
Ford is all smiles, he is not a masochist, of course it is better if he can not bask.
In the carriage, Tang En said to Eliya, "Have you seen it clearly?"
"Um... I don't quite understand..."
"It's actually very simple. The three-state conversion principle of water spells is solid, liquid, and gas. I just turned water into gas and sent them to the sky, and then they turned into liquid again. I scattered them, so they became clouds. , obscuring the sun-" Dunn paused for a moment, Plandal's star was called Lumbica, but he was still used to calling it the sun, "--the light, and the small water droplets in the cloud condensed together and fell over the buoyancy of the air. Come, it will become rain, and the rain will pool together into small streams and rivers..."
"When the temperature drops below zero, the water will condense into ice and become solid again."
"So, if you want to make water spells invisible, you need to increase the temperature, or forcibly change its state into a gaseous state."
"And if you want to strengthen the damage ability, you must take away their temperature, let the water elements gather together, and condense into ice, ice or ice blades that are low enough, can easily pierce the steel armor. Of course, this is an overkill. Creating a large-scale low-temperature environment and creating a favorable environment for oneself is the real purpose of this spell..."
Although Tang En's explanation was a bit broad, he showed the three-state conversion in his hand, which gave Ilya a very intuitive impression.
So she got it right away...
Tang En burst into tears again. He always had a feeling that by handing over the legendary spell to Illya, she would also be able to learn it instantly...
But Dunn certainly wouldn't do that.
Legendary spells are equivalent to nuclear bombs on the earth. Teaching Illya's legendary spells now is undoubtedly equivalent to handing over the nuclear bomb launch button to an ignorant kid.
Dunn even had a feeling that Illya's speed of learning spells should be limited.
If her talent is noticed by others, it will probably bring endless trouble.
Especially since Illya is still only a twelve-year-old girl.
Five days later, the carriage finally came to the outside of Kaspammy Castle.
"Lord Lord, in front of you is Castle Casparmi."
Ford said with a smile: "Although this Fort Casparmy is more prosperous than Ellington, it is also an unpopular town in the empire, and under the leadership of the Lord, Ellington will surely surpass Fort Casparmy soon. of."
Dunn didn't expect that the honest and honest Ford would also be flattering, and said with a smile: "Trust me, it won't take long for this day... By the way, does Castle Casparmi sell magic materials? Or an alchemy workshop?"
Only then did Ford remember that their lord was also an alchemist, and he couldn't help but be more respectful: "I once saw a shop on a street in Kaspammy Castle, which sold some bizarre items. Something, maybe there is something you need there, Lord."
Dunn nodded slightly. It seems that Castle Casparmy is indeed stronger than Ellington. You must know that Ellington does not even have the simplest magic material store.
It seems that the plan to refine pharmaceuticals for the guards can be put on the agenda, but I don't know how many materials can be found here.
Tang En did not carry too many gold coins, nor did he have the so-called crystal card of the Star Diamond Bank. Although there were still a lot of gold coins in the system package with a weak sense of existence, the gold coins could not be taken out and used. You can buy things in the game store.
Of course, it is impossible for an NPC to collect his virtual gold coins now...
Tang En couldn't help sighing: "It's a really weak system. It really is not reliable to count on the golden finger that comes with time-travel. You still have to work hard."
It is precisely because the sense of existence of this system is too weak, so Dunn can only rely on himself everywhere. If he does not develop with Ellington, when he really encounters the invasion of chaos, he will have nowhere to cry.
The carriage squeaked and passed through the path in the fields, and stopped outside the gate of Kaspammy Castle. It was almost dusk, and many people were queuing to enter the city. There was a lot of noise, maybe because of the entrance tax and the guards were deadlocked.
Ten minutes later, it was finally Dunn's turn.
"Who's in the carriage? Come down and get checked!"
The guard looked impatient. The carriage didn't even have the aristocratic family emblem on it. At first glance, it was not a big man, so naturally there was no politeness.
"Watch your words!"
Ford stared at the guard: "In the carriage is Lord Dunn, the lord of Ellington!"
"Lord of Ellington? Dunn?"
Several guards laughed: "Speaking of which, I have heard of Ellington, but I didn't expect even the lord to be so poor? You don't even have a follower when you go out?"
"What are you talking about, no matter how poor you are, you are still a lord. How can you just sit in a carriage and wait in line to enter the city? It must be fake."
"Even if it's a fake, it won't choose the bad place in Ellington, right?"
"Don't tell me, didn't the lord send troops to attack Ellington before? Could it be that he couldn't bear it, so he came to beg for mercy?"
Several soldiers giggled and talked, and Ford's face was ashen, feeling deeply insulted.
This is how Ellington stands in the eyes of others...
In the carriage, Dunn shook his head secretly, opened the curtain and took Ilia out of the carriage.
