Warhammer in a box

Chapter 47 An Invitation from Noon

"Ludwig, you are so awesome!" West changed his usual attitude and approached him enthusiastically.

"May the Emperor bless us, fortunately this cultist has been killed! West, are you all right?" The holy fire on Ludwig's body had reached its time limit and was completely extinguished.

"I didn't expect you to be a loyal follower of Emperor Karl! We in Sol Territory are fine, but it's a pity for those in Null Territory... They suffered heavy losses this time. Their chief officer died, and a lot of their war equipment was destroyed."

When West heard Ludwig shouting the Emperor's name, he thought it was Karl, and he pointed at the blackened man lying on the ground.

"Ah... those damn cultists! How on earth did they know we were here in advance? This is simply an ambush!"

Ludwig had a feeling that the severely mutated Murray looked at him as if he was here just for him!
"I'm also confused... Our itinerary should have been reported only to Aldolf, and no one else would know about it! Why do these guys seem to be waiting for us? Did someone tell them?" West also said puzzledly.

"These things will be resolved when we arrive in Altdorf. Take good care of the wounded and find a way to clear the waterway first. At least our goal of reaching Altdorf will not change now, huh? What are you waiting for, West? Give the order quickly." Ludwig continued.

"Huh? Me?"

"What else? Since the chief officer of Nunn Territory is dead, then you are the commander here!"

"Oh! Oh! I'll go right away. Listen up, everyone in Nunn's army. For now, you all have to follow my command. Your commander will be decided by His Majesty when we get to Aldolf. Everyone, pick up your tools and move the stranded ship ahead!"

West shouted belatedly, he didn't even realize that after seeing Ludwig's war-like performance, he unconsciously regarded Ludwig as his backbone.

After all, this is still an era of cold weapons and magic, where personal strength can change the outcome of a battle.

Strong personal strength can gain terrifying centripetal force.

With the order given, and thanks to everyone's efforts, the waterway was completely opened three hours later.

The fleet continued along the canal and arrived at Altdorf smoothly.

When everyone saw the villages along the coast and the patrolling soldiers, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

As the ship approached the shore, officials from Altdorf came to greet it.

"What happened to you? Why does your ship look like it was involved in a battle? Where are Nunn's ships? Why are there a few missing?"

"We encountered cultists!"

West then told him everything that happened on the way, and when he talked about Ludwig, he praised him so much that the official from Aldorf opened his mouth wide.

The soldiers of Noon also proved to West that what he said was true.

Not only in Sol County, but also in the whole of Altdorf, when Ludwig was about to be awarded the title of Count, it caused an uproar.

"Who is Ludwig!"

Hearing the official's voice, Ludwig walked out from the crowd with Terra's soldiers and dwarves.

"it's me!"

The official looked him up and down. Having seen many strong men before, he also felt from Ludwig the aura that only a confident and strong man could exude.

“Come with me, His Majesty has prepared a residence for you, and the awarding ceremony will be held for you tomorrow morning!
Hello, fellow dwarves, I send my regards to you on behalf of His Majesty Karl!"

The official said and saluted Phillips.

"Please also give my regards to His Majesty Carl. May the friendship between dwarves and humans last forever!"

Just as the officials were about to take Ludwig and others away, a man walked out from the crowd in Nuen.

"Wait a moment! Sir Ludwig, please wait a moment!" Ludwig looked back and saw a middle-aged man walking towards him in a hurry. Ludwig had the impression that this man should be a leader in Nunn's team.

"you are?"

"I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Charles West, and I'm the chief engineer of the Nunn Gunnery School. I just took the ship this time, and my original mission was to come to the Imperial Engineering School for exchanges. Thank you for your help before. You saved my life."

Ludwig looked at the well-mannered man in front of him and found that he obviously did not look like a soldier.

"This is what I should do, but you definitely came to me for more than just a thank you, right?"

"Hahahaha, of course my thanks come from the bottom of my heart, but I do have another request!"

"What's your request? I'm just a soldier, I can't help you, right?"

"That's right... In the previous battle, I saw your soldiers using some special weapons... The one that made a beeping sound!"

Upon hearing this, Ludwig's heart tightened. After all, he was discovered!
"so what?"

"When I saw this weapon, it was all I could think about! It's simply a masterpiece. I really can't imagine what kind of master could make something so precise. I want to meet the maker! Or let me study it!"

Charles looked sincere.

This caught Ludwig off guard.

"Made by? How would I know? This was brought directly by the Emperor's messengers! Research..."

This made Ludwig undecided for a moment.

"Promise him! Tell him the laser rifle won't work, but there are other things he can research!"

Zhang Heng's voice appeared in Ludwig's mind again.

Zhang Heng made a decision immediately after hearing what Charles said. In Warhammer: Nuln has certain research capabilities. After all, it is a place where steam tanks can be built. If he gives them some automatic weapons from his world, perhaps they can really imitate them?

The basic industrial base is also an industrial base. When the faith is sufficient in the future, you can get a technical priest in, and maybe you won’t have to move many things yourself.

Moreover, he could establish a good personal relationship with Nun, which would certainly be of great help to the subsequent development, after all, Nun was right next to Thor's territory.

Whether it is development or fighting, they cannot be avoided.

If he had to send everything into the world in the box on a large scale, it would consume a huge amount of faith power.

Zhang Heng now wishes he could split his power of faith into two!
"I'm sorry, Charles. I can only decline with regret."

Charles looked regretful when he heard Ludwig's words.

"Really? I can pay! A lot of money!"

"Don't worry! Although we can't lend you this thing, we have other things. I guarantee that they are things you have never seen before. I swear on my name! After this happens, I will send someone to contact you in Nun!" Ludwig said solemnly.

"Really? That's great! I look forward to seeing you! When you get to Noon, just go to the Gunnery Academy and tell me my name! Everyone knows me!"

Although he did not get the opportunity to study the laser rifle, Charles still looked forward to Ludwig's words.

"Okay, that's a happy decision. Well, I have to go first. We'll talk about it in detail next time!" Ludwig also said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go, everyone. There is still a lot of work to do before receiving the medal!" The Aldolf official in front also began to urge.
