Mage Joan

If measured by the "castle" standard, this single-storey building, which is only 20 feet high, is like a "matchbox" made of bricks and stones, which is really not inflow.

However, considering that the construction period is only half a month, it is not easy to complete such a strong and practical fortress.

The fortress built on the hillside is only part of the general defense plan of Lieutenant Colonel Vasa.

At the top of the fortress, there is also a wooden whistle tower, standing on the tall tower, from the "Jinsha River" to "Broken Tooth Valley" the vast field of view.

A circle of wall was built around the fortress, and a trench with a depth of ten feet and a width of about 20 feet was also dug out of the wall. The Jinsha River water was introduced to form a moat, which provided a second protection ring for the fortress.

The ring-shaped space between the fortress and the city wall is used to build dormitory, canteen, hospital, training ground, warehouse and stable. In addition to military functions, the fort also doubles as a church, conference hall, and banquet hall.

George Vassar was very satisfied with the newly built fortress, and named it "Fortress of Nisesi", meaning "necessary fortress".

In the evening of the same day, the camp specially held a bonfire party to celebrate.

Dafeng Township residents who had worked hard for more than half a month on the construction site were also invited to the party. They also brought wine, meat and local products from their homes to share with the officers and soldiers, and celebrated the completion of the fort.

Throughout the construction period, including the construction workers to the miscellaneous women and children, the wages received were settled on the same day, and Joan never owed a copper plate.

Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa has repeatedly emphasized that his officers and soldiers obey military discipline, and those who bully and harass civilians will be severely punished.

With the ease of payment and the strict military discipline, few military forces can accomplish both at the same time in this era, and of course won the support of local residents.

The barracks are like a large furnace. The young people who are involved in this furnace are like pieces of ore with different shapes and different materials. Most of them are grinded away and burned away, and they are merged into a large piece of inseparable and closely connected. Steel.

But occasionally there are special individuals, which remain unique after smelting and cannot be fully integrated into the collective.

Joan is such a "hard stone".

Everyone in the army was very enthusiastic about him, but his character that was so lonely in his bones did not change because of it. Like an ice that never melted, he still hated the noisy and lively occasions like he did before joining the army. Tongle's social activities.

Fortunately, George Vassar understood his strange temper and did not force him to attend the party.

As for those who don't know Joan so much, they are actually considerate of his absence.

Just because he is a "mage".

In the public's impression, the mage should be this kind of lonely "nerd" image.

If a mage laughs all day long, drinks in large bowls, eats meat in large chunks, can brag and fart with anyone, and quickly mixes, people should suspect that this person has the name of a mage, but it is actually a "jianghu liar ".

Of course, this is a prejudice.

In fact, there aren't necessarily fewer enthusiastic and cheerful masters than indifferent masters.

But Joan heartily thanked people for their prejudice against the profession of "Mage", allowing him to stay away from the crowd with peace of mind and stay alone in the barracks to concentrate on his work.

The fortress has been built, and Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa has some confidence in his heart. In the afternoon, he personally wrote a report submitted to Sir John Norfolk, Governor of the Colonial of Alfheim.

In the report, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel confidently declared: Even if the enemy sent 1,000 people to attack, there is no possibility of capturing this strong fortress!

Lieutenant Colonel Vasa still remembers Major Green's original suggestion: if there is a bad news report to the superior, then try to send a piece of good news.

The successful completion of the Nissi Fortress is undoubtedly good news, and the bad news that has been concealed for half a month is also the time to report.

Therefore, in the second half of the report, Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa recounted his own self-blame and recounted the accidental killing of sea-blue diplomat Sir Joseph Jumonville and his entourage, and pleaded guilty to the Governor.

The report written by Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa is now on Joan's desk.

His job is to edit and transcribe the report, and then use magic to send the report directly to the Governor.

Qiao An transcribed the manuscript, and after repeated inspections confirmed that there was no problem, he took out a scroll from the storage bag and unfolded the scroll to read the spelling mantra.

The rhythmic elven mantras flow from Joan's lips, and each letter is like a note, converging into a beautiful melody in the night sky.

The magic wire that was originally disorderly distributed in the space was pulled by this wonderful melody, gradually resonating, and gathered in front of Joan into a group of red glowing spheres woven by countless lines.

When Joan chanted the last barred spell, the scroll in his hand ran out of magic and turned into dust.

The red "yarn ball" suspended in the air stopped vibrating and seemed to wait for something quietly.

Joanne picked up the military report in his hand and read it aloud from beginning to end. Each byte spit out in the mouth caused the red light ball to resonate again. The magic wire that made up the light ball remembered the vibration frequency.

After reading the report, Joan raised his hand to touch the sphere of light, and ordered it to fly to the place where the Governor of Norfolk was mentally, and the red sphere of light suddenly disappeared.

Nicesi Fortress is hundreds of miles away from the Governor’s Palace in Port Leiden, but this magic light ball can reach its destination in an instant, and emerges in front of the Governor.

Your Excellency, as long as you follow the head of this magic "yarn ball", you can replay every word that Joan just said in his mind-this is the 3 ring "short message" Communication principle.

After completing the mission of delivering the letter, the next thing Joan had to do was to wait for the reply from His Excellency the Governor, and then transcribe the Governor's speech to Lieutenant Colonel Vaasa.

With Joan’s status, it’s not his turn to care about how the Excellency Governor handles this diplomatic turmoil. The waiting time cannot be wasted, so he closes his eyes and enters a state of meditation. explore.

Deep meditation is a bit like a daze, people who are immersed in it tend to ignore the passage of time.

Joan didn't know how long it was in the state of meditation. Suddenly, he felt a trace of abnormal movement outside his body. He ended his meditation and opened his eyes to look in the direction of the abnormal movement.

A crow was standing on the edge of the window, and his eyes were directly caught in his eyes, reflecting slightly in the night.

Joan recognized that it was an "animal messenger" and got up to open the window and shattered the remaining half of the bread on the table.

The crow croaked with satisfaction, and jumped into Joan's open palm, waiting for Joan to release the white cloth straps tied to his feet, and then eagerly jumped back to the window sill to peck bread crumbs.
