Release that Witch - Chapter 14

[Chapter 14 Capabilities]

“Your Highness, how high and wide do you plan to build this city wall?”

“It’s at least fifteen feet high and six feet wide, enough for four people to walk side by side,” Roland nodded secretly. Professionals are different. First ask the technical parameters, and then determine the construction plan.

“Then it needs to dig a trench one person deep to stabilize the upper wall, and if the top is six feet wide and the wall is fifteen feet high, the width of the lower part will be at least doubled,” Carl quickly replied, “In this way, just digging It takes a lot of manpower to make a trench. Your Highness, if you can give me one hundred and fifty people, I should be able to dig this trench before the arrival of the Demon Moon.”

“A ditch can’t stop evil beasts,” Roland said noncommittally.

“That’s right. If the upper part of the city wall is built with stones, it will take three years. If it is only to stop evil beasts, the city wall does not have to be so high. It can be about twelve feet. The width can also be reduced by one third, and the bottom can be reduced To six feet. Digging trenches and building walls at the same time, increasing the number of people by two hundred… In this way, I can finish it before the arrival of the demon moon next year.”

Carl paused, then continued, “Forgive me, Your Highness, now is not a good time to start construction. If the wall is not built in time, even if the trench is dug, it will be lost after a whole winter of rain and snow. It’s what it’s meant to be. Then you’d spend more time and manpower cleaning and softening the trench and digging deeper.”

“If, as you say, the wall is twelve feet high and four feet wide, how long will it take to dig the trench?”

“It should take a month and a half,” Karl replied.

“Then let’s do it according to this plan. Dig the trench and build it at the same time, and build it before the arrival of the Demon Moon.” Roland waved his hand and interrupted what Carl was about to say, “I know what you are worried about, let’s take a look at this first. , the latest work from the Graycastle Alchemy Workshop.”

Naturally, he didn’t have time to glue the stone bricks again to show the mason, but just dragged out the two glued bricks to show them.

Fortunately, no one dared to question the prince’s words. When Karl heard that this alchemical adhesive called cement could be transformed from liquid to solid between day and night, and produced extremely high adhesion, his face showed a smile. Unbelievably shocked look.

Having devoted his whole life to the Society of Masons, he can naturally realize how great this invention is. In addition to bonding stones, more importantly, it can shape shapes at will.

Isn’t this equivalent to directly owning stones of any shape without secondary cutting and grinding?

The time-consuming and labor-intensive processing stage can be discarded, and the erection speed of any building will be raised to a new level.

That alone is exciting enough!

Roland looked at the other party with satisfaction, and asked again, “How about it, do you think three months is enough?”

Carl Vanbert’s voice trembled, “If what you said is correct, no, no, I mean… If the Alchemy Workshop’s description of this thing is correct, I… I am willing to give it a try.”

“Very good, I will ask someone to write you a detailed document on how to use cement, and if you need anything else, please talk to my assistant minister,” Roland said with a smile, “Mr. Carl, now you are a member of the administrative department.” member.”

I saw Nana herself in the afternoon of the next day.

The little girl looked at Anna in a daze, grabbed the hem of her clothes for a long time before choking out a sentence, “Am I… dead?”

When seeing her for the first time, Roland had to admit that the power of witches not only endowed them with magical abilities, but also changed their appearance and temperament to some extent.

She and Anna are completely different types, but both contain a unique charm.

This feeling has nothing to do with age or living conditions. Even when Anna was waiting to die in prison, the radiance she radiated remained undiminished.

Searching through his entire memory, whether it was a street warbler in Graycastle or a well-educated noble lady, he had never felt this way before.

If I have to describe it, putting them together with witches is like a black and white photo with colored characters.

Carl Vanbert, who brought her here, resigned tactfully, and only Roland, Anna, and Nana were left in the palace garden.

“You are not dead, Anna is alive and well,” Roland said with a smile, “I am Roland Wimbledon, the fourth prince, and you are—”

“I’m Nana Paine,” the little girl came back to life when she heard that she was not dead.

She ran straight to Anna and chatted with her, completely disregarding Roland’s status as the Prince of Graycastle.

Roland naturally didn’t care about a girl who was only fourteen or fifteen years old. He sat down at the round table, poured himself ale, and watched the “daily life” of the two witches.

Anna was obviously a little uncomfortable with the familiarity of the other party, and she would only respond after Nana said a dozen or so words. After all, Anna was only seventeen years old, but she already felt like a big sister.

Roland couldn’t help but wonder how outstanding she would be when she grew up?

It wasn’t until Nanahua’s speech gradually slowed down that he coughed twice and asked, “Miss Pine, according to your teacher, have you awakened as a witch?”

Roland prefers the word awakening compared to what most people call “degenerate” as a witch.

He would not naively think that all witches are pure and innocent blank paper, and that people with malicious intentions will only cause greater damage after gaining power.

This is just like a weapon, it can create violence or resist violence, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com The key depends on who holds the weapon.

Perhaps the witch massacres propagated by the church are based on facts, but it is too unfair to regard this as evidence of the witch community.

Nana’s expression froze, and she asked in a low voice, “Will you hang me?”

“No, of course not. Those who are hanged are heinous criminals. You are not, and neither is Miss Anna, so don’t worry about it.”

She took a breath and nodded, “I’m not sure either… The teacher said that witches have the power of demons after being lured by the devil, but, but I haven’t seen the devil before?”

“When did you realize you were different?”

“About a week ago,” Nana murmured, “I saw a little bird broke its leg, and wanted to help it. Then… I felt something run out of my hand.”

“Something came out?” Roland asked, “What next?”

“Hmm… it suddenly surrounded the bird like a ball of sticky water,” Nana tilted her head and thought about it, “then the bird’s legs will be fine.”

Could it be that her power is of the healing type?

Roland’s heart skipped a beat. He knew exactly what this ability meant—in an era when there were no antibiotics, no modern medicine, and it was very likely to die directly when encountering trauma and infection, being able to heal wounds quickly was equivalent to having an extra life. .

This ability has little effect on promoting the progress of the entire civilization, but it is surprisingly meaningful to individual life.

He immediately went to the door and asked the knight who was guarding outside to find a live chicken.

If he could prove that what she said was true, he might be able to use this to change the ruthless persecution of witches in Border Town.
