Chapter 375 Communication between husband and wife
Rune Word Plague is a weapon that can give the user an unparalleled poison enchantment effect, but the extremely ironic thing is that it has a purifying aura that special attacks against plagues and poisons.
For four years, the two court mages worked day and night to decipher the rune language, and finally gave the Dragon Prince a great gift at the previous wedding. Excellent equipment will be mass-produced, and some equipment with special effects will not lose to artifacts.
It's just that the cost of making runes is a bit high. After all, there is only one World Stone. Every time you get some scraps from it, you are cutting into the Dragon Prince's heart.
In addition, this manufacturing method needs to be kept strictly confidential to avoid being noticed by Tzeentch, so some key weapons can only be made with the runes originally obtained.
This runic language called plague is one of the reasons why Imrik dares to take the initiative to cause trouble for the Pestilen clan. It is no exaggeration to say that when facing Nurgle and the Rats, they will have one more deadly trump card.
When the most deadly plague has lost its effect, these rats are not much different from other rats except for their tough body and lack of pain.
Hearing the prince mention the language of runes, Masnow, as an insider, nodded to express his understanding. The published plan only said to guard against the Druchi in the north and the lizardmen in the west.
However, in the highly confidential internal military action plan, the attack on the rats has never fallen. After all, the prince's brain circuit is different from that of most people, but the final result will always prove that he is right.
"I'll get the soldiers ready. It's best for Coster to go with me. The advance team needs a reliable Vaal priest." Masno made the request. This operation may be related to the next steps in Lu. Stiria's policy requires complete preparations.
"Yes, Coster will go with you." Imrik agreed with the idea of the champion warrior. Although he really wanted to go to the southern Great Forest Sea to personally contact the Sotigo Prophet, the current situation does not allow this.
"Over to Hesiota, I will ask some skinks to follow you. The giant spiritual network of the Sky City has been messed up by the rats. The Rainbow Bridge may be difficult to reach directly, so complete it according to your ideas. This operation."
"Understood." Masnow lowered his head slightly, and after receiving Imric's signal, he said he understood the matter and turned to leave.
The last attack on three Druchi Black Arks had already proved his worth as a champion warrior, and this operation was undoubtedly a symbol of solid status. After all, Caledo, who founded his country by military force, still worshiped the strong. .
After Masno left, Adila, who was supposed to manage the civilians of Kislev, opened the door and entered. Seeing her husband staring at the seaside, she expressed some doubts, "Why did Masno
go to the southern Great Forest Sea?" ? This seems to be inconsistent with our previous plan."
"The attack on the northern Druchi, support of the Shadow King's military operation against Krakalond, and the troops stationed in the country have caused our military strength to be somewhat scattered. In the early days, It's not the best choice."
Adira didn't want to question her husband's actions, but after becoming the prince's wife, she examined Caledo's current situation as a relative outsider.
There is no doubt that Caledor remains the strongest kingdom in Ulthuan, as it has always been from ancient times to this day.
But since Imrik took the throne, this kingdom that can fight one against two, or one against three in its ultimate state, has turned into an extremely large military group. Perhaps the other kingdoms combined could barely reach Caledor's military strength. After all, with a standing army of 30,000 people and reserve soldiers still in training, this number has far exceeded the red line of 2% of the ratio of soldiers to civilians.
But this price makes it difficult for the national living standards to reach the average level of Ulthuan. Even though some of Imrik's policies in recent years have made great changes in the national life, if these funds and energy are put into In terms of people's livelihood, it will at least rise by one level, and the fertility rate that has been advocated will also increase.
According to Adila's idea, it is natural to reduce part of the army and concentrate on doing big things, instead of the current situation of spreading the troops to affect efficiency.
Imrik, who had long noticed that Adira was waiting outside the door, sighed. The matter about the Dragon Father indeed required a lot of effort to investigate.
The Dragon Father's belief channel in his hand is just a signal receiver, and it will not actively give power to believers like a real god.
You can only ask and move, the upper limit is there. It can only be said to raise the strength of the Dragon Prince to one level, but it may still be a bit difficult to become the God's Chosen among all members.
But this matter cannot be told to Edila Ming. After all, except Lao Mi and himself, no one knows the origin of the red thunder in the hands of the Dragon Prince. Now he is just pretending to be the Dragon Father to enhance Caledo's power.
Imric turned around and looked at his frowning wife. He did not hide his concerns and directly explained his concerns,
"Some things happened in Hesiota. These things are very important. But I'm sorry, I can't tell you now." For the specific situation, Masno needs to go to the southern Great Forest Sea to investigate this matter."
Adila stared at her husband for a long time, and after not seeing her for just a few days, she could see a trace of anxiety in Imric's eyebrows, or perhaps Said it was doubtful.
This was something she had never seen before. In her impression, the Dragon Prince always looked so arrogant, as if nothing in the world could escape his control.
Walking to Imrik's side, holding those rough hands tightly, and looking into the deep blue eyes, Adira said the thought that she had suppressed for a long time,
"I know, I know. You are burdened There are too many things, the honor of the family, the expectations of the kingdom, the mission of the dragon lord, any one of them is enough to make people breathless, but you still bear it all silently." Let go of those big calloused hands
, Adila opened her arms and hugged her husband, and said what she had been thinking about for a long time. Her tone was full of tenderness,
"But I am your wife now, and the oath we made will never hide any secrets from each other." . I won’t ask what happened, but I still want you to understand that as long as I am here, you have a home.”
Imrik, who was hugged, also put his arms around Adira’s body and stroked her gently. Holding her long blond hair, she said softly,
"I know it too, but please believe me, I have never doubted the responsibilities that family members have towards each other."
The two of them began to remain silent, feeling each other in the office. With this calmness, stroking Adira's long hair and feeling the fragrance from her body, Imric fell into silence.
