#127 - Section 127

"My lord, it can be detonated with mental power, which is very convenient," Boltzmann said with a slight smile.

Allen frowned upon hearing this: "Detonated with mental power? Can you change the method? I want ordinary people to be able to use these things."

Boltzmann was stunned when he heard this: "My lord, I haven't thought about this yet, but even a knight can use the alchemical bomb. Although knights don't cultivate mental power, they are much stronger than ordinary people and can detonate the alchemical bomb."

Boltzmann didn't expect that Allen wanted to develop an alchemical bomb that ordinary people could use. This was not difficult for Boltzmann, but once ordinary people could use this kind of thing, it might cause some terrible consequences.

Allen obviously understood Boltzmann's thoughts. He smiled slightly: "No, Boltzmann, my warriors need this weapon. Although my warriors are brave, loyal, unafraid of sacrifice, and unafraid of death, I don't want them to make unnecessary sacrifices. I hope there will be fewer names engraved on the hero's monument in Skywolf City. So, Boltzmann, I beg you."

Allen said in a solemn tone. Indeed, alchemical bombs can be detonated directly with mental power, which is very convenient, but it is not enough.

What Allen needs are thermal weapons that ordinary people can use.

In this world, war, to be honest, is actually a decisive battle of high-end combat power.

Once the high-end combat power is defeated, then the consequences are obvious. Even if there are 100,000 ordinary soldiers, they cannot stop a golden knight.

This is a huge gap.

This means that in this world, the real determinant of victory or defeat is the top combat power.

And the bottom-level soldiers are just cannon fodder.

In this regard, Allen, as a time-traveler, has something to say.

Who says that ordinary people have no way to explode with powerful combat power?

As long as technology develops and alchemical bombs can be developed to the extreme, maybe ordinary people can threaten golden knights.

This will rewrite the current war situation in this world.

It is also one of Allen's strongest trump cards.

Of course, at present, this goal is still relatively difficult.

But this does not mean that it cannot be achieved.

"… My lord, you are truly a benevolent lord." Boltzmann was slightly stunned, and then showed a smile. "I have an idea, would you like to hear it?"

Allen didn't care about Boltzmann's praise. He wasn't being benevolent, but wanted to increase his strength as much as possible.

Duke Ryan's attitude made him feel a sense of crisis for no reason.

Regardless of what this Dragon Knight is thinking, Allen feels that he can only rely on himself. He has even prepared to fight alone.

Allen explained some of the characteristics of grenades from his previous life.

This made Boltzmann's eyes widen.

"My lord, you are truly a genius! That's great, how come I didn't think of this idea? Huge explosive power doesn't mean enough lethality. If you fill it with some small iron pieces…" Boltzmann's eyes lit up, and countless inspirations rose in his mind. At the same time, he also had an idea for making an alchemical bomb that ordinary people could use. "My lord, I have a general idea. Please wait a few days. After a few days, I will definitely be able to make it… a hand grenade!" Boltzmann said affirmatively.

Allen nodded upon hearing this: "Work hard, Boltzmann! I'm waiting for your good news." Allen patted Boltzmann on the shoulder and encouraged him with a smile.

Chapter 195 Winter and Warmth Magic Devices (5 Seeking Subscriptions, Seeking Self-Orders, Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

After dismissing Boltzmann, Allen returned to the castle.

"Why wasn't there an explosion today?"

Leia walked down from the upstairs wearing thick clothes.

"Because Boltzmann succeeded."

Allen said with a slight smile.

"Boltzmann? Is that the alchemist you mentioned? My father said that alchemists are evil and can manipulate people's souls."

Leia frowned slightly. Alchemists are more special on the continent because they are both righteous and evil.

Allen was shocked when he first met Boltzmann.

He even once believed that alchemists had touched the forbidden zone of life.

On the continent, this is the impression that alchemists give to most people.

Among them, many even like to use living people for experiments. There are also secret techniques for life alchemy in alchemy. The principles, processes, and results are extremely bloody.

Some alchemists don't like the secret techniques of life alchemy. They like to explore the method of eternal life, and therefore like to use living people for experiments.

In general, the knowledge mastered by alchemists is evil to most people.

After all, most of the secret techniques of alchemists are related to living human experiments, either involving knowledge that touches the soul, which is taboo for most people.

Of course, since alchemists exist, it means that some people have needs.

Some big forces even support some alchemists. Why?

Isn't it for the art of eternal life? As Boltzmann said, alchemy can completely create a brand new body for some humans whose bodies are weakening and facing death, extending their lives.

Even if it can't achieve true eternal life, it's already very good.

Leia looked at Allen with a strange expression. This guy is obviously so young, why does he want to cultivate alchemists?

"It's not manipulating the soul, but equivalent exchange."

Allen smiled: "Besides, Boltzmann is a kind guy. What I want him to do is other things, not related to the soul."

His words made Leia frown slightly: "I don't know what you're doing, so mysterious. I've sent so many letters to Brother Leinason during this time, but he hasn't replied to a single one."

Leia sighed. Although she was now used to life in Skywolf City, it wasn't her home.

"Perhaps His Highness the Crown Prince has been busy recently?"

Allen said softly. King Norton was dying and only had a month left. The situation in the north was deteriorating rapidly. Leinason and Grand Duke Ryan were no longer able to spare any thought for Leia.

Leinason probably had to be secretly wary of the Duchy of Shack as well.

When he sent Leia to Skywolf City, Allen understood that this was the Crown Prince's complete trust in him.

He had placed his own sister's life and safety in his hands. "… Allen, is there going to be a war?"

Leia was silent for a moment before speaking to Allen. Recently, Leia had increasingly felt that the atmosphere in Skywolf Territory was also beginning to change slightly.

Several times, she had heard Sparrow, Marco, and others discussing war preparations with Allen.

Allen smiled slightly upon hearing this: "Princess Leia, you just need to be a good teacher to Betty and the others. I've heard that Betty and the others like you very much. Princess, it seems you don't dislike commoners either."

Allen changed the subject.

Leia stared at Allen for a long time: "You all like to treat me like a child! Humph!" After saying that, the Princess turned around and went back to her room to rest.

Allen didn't go back immediately. He walked to the fourth floor and looked out from the balcony. The houses in Skywolf City were already starting to frost over due to the gradually decreasing temperature. The temperature at night was particularly cold. Allen exhaled a breath of mist: "Winter is coming…"

During this time, Princess Leia had completely embraced her role as a teacher, leaving early in the morning as soon as it was light.

Allen continued to cultivate magic and battle aura every day.

Marco and the others were constantly training the Knights and warriors.

In the territory, Allen had specially built a decent city for the Minotaurs, Centaurs, and Treants. The city was located near the Treant Factory for their convenience.

At the same time, the batch of orc weapons and armor that had been ordered previously had also arrived.

Minotaurs mostly used axes or huge spiked clubs, while Centaurs uniformly used longbows and swords.

Orcs were naturally endowed with a certain amount of combat power, coupled with their physical advantages, making them an absolutely powerful fighting force.

These guys could be used as workers when they put down their weapons, and they were definitely warriors when they picked them up.

As for the defense line issue, it had already been resolved. Allen and Marco had led the orc engineering teams to build ironwood fences and ironwood walls on the border.

Whether it was the north or the south, aerial cavalry and Centaurs, mobile troops with high maneuverability, patrolled every day.

Due to the weather, Allen also began to use magic stones to create some warming items.

For example, fire-attribute magic stones could be directly processed into a simple magic device.

Wearing this kind of magic device was enough to keep the body, or a certain area around it, warm and comfortable.

Because his ordinary soldiers were also Dragonblood Warriors who had taken dragon-type magic potions.

Having a strong physique meant that even fighting fiercely in heavy snow would not be too affected.

What Allen needed to do was to create large-scale magic devices that could keep large areas warm.

Even for Dragonblood Warriors, having a warm and comfortable place to sleep and rest after fierce battles, or at ordinary times, was definitely better than resting in the freezing cold.

Currently, Allen had already made one magic device, which was enough to ensure a comfortable temperature within a radius of five hundred meters.

But he had many soldiers, and he needed many such magic devices.

Anyway, Allen had nothing to do, so he would make some every day, believing that there would be enough magic devices to use after a month.

Of course, Allen also had people put some of these magic devices on the northern pastures.

Now that more than a month had passed, many buildings had been built on the northern pastures, all places for cows and sheep to live.

The northern pastures were now starting to develop.

Allen estimated that in a few days, when the construction of the last pasture was completed, his main quest would probably be completed as well.

Currently, Allen's experience points had reached 767500 / 1000000. When the Northern Pasture quest was completed, he would reach 860,000 experience points.

Only less than 140,000 away from one million.

Allen estimated that the remaining experience points would not be easily acquired within a month.

Perhaps, to reach the Saint-level Knight, he would still have to use merit points to buy enough experience points from the store on the battlefield?

But that didn't matter. He was ready for the war to begin.

What Allen didn't expect was that, a few days later, before Boltzmann could research good news about grenades, he received unexpected news during the first heavy snow of the year.

Chapter 196: Earl Steel Fist Passes Away, Marquis or Duke? (1 Subscribe, Self-Subscribe, Monthly Ticket!)

"Earl Steel Fist has passed away."

Allen sat in his study. Today was only twenty days away from the start of the war.

Standing before him were Sparrow and Marco.
