Release that Witch - Chapter 1072

[Chapter 1050 Difficult Puzzles]

A week later, Tilly delivered a roster to Roland’s office desk.

“How is it? Is the recruitment going well?” Roland poured a cup of tea for the other party and asked warmly.

Facing this nominal “sister”, he has always had a lingering sense of guilt—unlike Anna who took the initiative to inform her, she was the first person to see through that she was not the fourth prince.

Although when the flying devils attacked Neverwinter, the subconscious protective action of the fifth princess made him understand that she had fully accepted this ally relationship, but the guilt in his heart did not ease at all.

After all, he was the one who occupied the fourth prince’s body.

Obviously at the beginning, he planned to pretend to be his brother unreasonably, but the other party didn’t pursue it, and he felt a little uncomfortable instead.

Of course, if he wanted to think about it, he would not bring up this point again and again—those who wanted to get an answer in the final analysis, most of them would die halfway, and he knew this very well.

“Except for the unsatisfactory number of people, everything else is fine.” Tilly took the teacup, brought it to her lips and blew lightly, “One hundred and twenty-four people were screened out from the immigrants, and seventy-three people were selected from the official residents. There are less than two hundred people in total… In the fight against the devil, such a small number of people may not be of much use.”

“It’s always difficult at the beginning,” Roland flipped through the roster, “When there are role models, more people will definitely be attracted in the second round of recruitment—by then it won’t just be a matter of Neverwinter. gone.”

Although the horizons are different, the human yearning for the vast space is engraved in the bones – from the moment the civilization sprouted, people began to look up at the starry sky.

Whether it is imitating flying birds or using balloons, the exploration of the blue sky is not a patent only in the era of airplanes. The explorers of the Society of Strange Objects are the best example, so he is not too worried about the attractiveness of the air force.

The first thing to do is to prepare a flying team to come out.

But he knows that training pilots is by no means an easy task.

In the era when the flight control system was immature, the most important thing for a pilot… was talent.

The tests of fear of heights, anti-dizziness, and physical coordination in the assessment are just the most basic requirements. Things like sense of space direction, understanding of aircraft, and even nerve reaction speed all determine whether a person is suitable to be a pilot.

The obedience and reliability of the veterans of the First Army are extremely high. It is okay to select a small number of outstanding people as core officers.

That’s why he broadened his screening to include newcomers.

The level of cultural theory can be cultivated by the day after tomorrow. If there is no such thing as talent, there is no such thing. Instead of letting people bite the bullet and go to the sky, it is better to find more talented people.

According to statistics, more than 3,000 people signed up within a week, and nearly 200 qualified candidates were screened out. From this point of view, it is really wise to take temporary residents into consideration from the very beginning.

Turning to the last page of the roster, Roland couldn’t help but gasp, “There are still six people who failed to pass the oath?”

“I didn’t agree with my heart, and I was taken down by Vader for interrogation.” It was Nightingale who answered him. “Two of them are official residents of Neverwinter.”

Roland frowned. Theoretically speaking, this is not something to make a big fuss about. People’s hearts are fickle. It takes only one thought to go from righteousness to treachery. He didn’t expect these people to be the same forever.

But when this happened, he still felt a sense of disappointment.

They could have followed him into a better new era.

They have even seen the threshold of a new era.

At last it was abandoned at the threshold.

“Have you found out why?”

“I wanted to report to you after a thorough investigation,” Nightingale lazily said. “They were all bought by foreign businessmen, hoping to infiltrate the army and obtain more information about firearms. The police department was dispatched later, But it was a waste of time, and I only caught the merchant assistant who stayed in the hotel. So I asked Axia to go backtracking, and found a letter from the old capital in the illusion. Judging from the content, the mastermind was very similar to Noble. In short, now we have the whereabouts, appearance and identity of the other party, and the portrait drawn by Soraya has also been sent to Tasa through the animal messenger, I think he can’t escape for a long time.”

Hearing this, Roland couldn’t help laughing, and the previous unhappiness was swept away.

Faced with this unreasonable investigation model, the conspirators are really pitiful.

“Uh… is there any problem?” Nightingale blinked.

“No, you’ve done a good job,” Roland lowered the corner of his mouth, “Since they don’t want to give up, the north slope mining area won’t be too crowded.”

It seems that the former nobles still haven’t completely given up, as long as he shows some flaws, these people will revive.

However, this did not surprise him. After all, enfeoffment of nobility had lasted for nearly a thousand years, and it still existed in the other three kingdoms. It would not be possible to make it disappear overnight.

“Okay,” Tilly coughed twice, and brought the topic back to the business, “The human problem has been solved, so where is the plane?”

“That’s the question… By the way, Evelyn has recently made a batch of Chaos Drink with excellent taste, do you want to try it?”

“Eh? Okay——no!” Tilly came back to her senses in an instant, “It’s obvious that you are talking about an airplane now, so you haven’t even been able to build a prototype, have you?”

Hit the bullseye.

“Anyway, they still have to learn literacy and basic theory. If it’s just a demonstration, the glider will also…”

“No,” Tilly interrupted righteously, “Even if it’s a glider, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com The adjusted and improved model at the back flies completely differently from the previous one, let alone a brand new plane. How can I teach others if I haven’t even tried to operate it myself? It’s true that those students are still very early in flying, but I have to spend at least a month in advance to fully understand its performance and make a thorough review of the flight manual. Make corresponding adjustments, and this does not include the time for subsequent improvement. Since you have entrusted this matter to me, I naturally have the responsibility to urge you to complete the due work.”

This is the first time Roland has seen such a real fifth princess.

It can be seen that she is really full of love for this “big toy” that can fly and match her own abilities.

The only problem is that Roland underestimated the difficulty of manufacturing a complete aircraft—even if it is a biplane classic, even if it only has one more set of power and fuel equipment than a glider, the complexity has doubled. data results.

If he alone designs it, he may not even be able to finalize a finalized plan in a few years.

“I see,” he shook his head helplessly, “In half a month, I produced a finished product that can fly.”

“Then we’ve made a deal.” Tilly smiled slightly, “Also, what about the excellent Chaos drink you mentioned? Please let me taste it too.”

…

“Strange…” Nightingale muttered in a low voice after the fifth princess left with a whole bottle of Chaos Drink.

“What’s wrong?” Roland asked.

“She has called you brother many times in public before, but she seldom calls you that when she sees you alone… Isn’t it strange?”

“Is that so?” He froze for a moment, “But…why?”

“I do not know either.”

The two stared at each other, touched their chins, and fell into this difficult puzzle together.
