Warhammer in a box

Chapter 81 Gunnery Academy
Hearing his men speak so sincerely, the officer immediately put on his armor and took up his weapons. He gathered his soldiers, rode on horseback, and ran out of the city.

He soon arrived at his destination and saw the Chimera troop carrier.

The officer swore that the metal object before him was definitely not an Imperial steam tank, but it was so similar.

When he saw the golden double-headed eagle emblem on Tank and Gurman and his group, he knew where Gurman and his group came from.

As mentioned before, Terra is already well known in the surrounding cities and electoral territories, and the appointment of an earl is never a small matter.

"Are you from Terra?" the officer asked tentatively.

"Yes, I am the current chief executive of Terra. My name is Gurman. We have been invited by Charles West, an engineer from your Noon Gunnery Academy, to come here for study and exchange. Please inform him." Gurman said politely.

"Charles West? Chief Engineer at the Gunnery School?!"

"If the other side didn't lie to us, this should be the name."

"Please wait a moment. You and your team can go to the post station outside the city to rest for a while. I will go there to report immediately. If what you said is true, you will definitely be able to enter the city smoothly. After all, you and your soldiers are carrying weapons and this iron armor. Please understand."

"No problem at all."

Gulman was led by the soldiers to a post station on the outskirts of the city. It seemed that Wester had a great reputation in Nuln, and the soldiers at the post station politely served him tea.

The officer also rode into the city of Nuln on a fast horse. He went directly to the Gunnery Academy and informed Gurman and others of their visit. At this time, West had also returned to Nuln from Altdorf.

He was concentrating on studying weapons in his workshop, and was very unhappy when the servant knocked on the door.

"Didn't you tell me not to disturb me when I'm doing research?"

The servant outside the door also said apologetically: "Lord West, a soldier outside the city just came to report that you had invited some people from Terra to come for communication. The soldier wanted to confirm whether it was true."

"Terra?! Ludwig? Go quickly! Send someone to greet them, and have someone prepare drinks in the banquet room! Great, they are finally here!" Upon hearing the servant's report, West immediately put down the work at hand.

Ever since they parted ways in Aldorf, he sometimes dreamed of the laser rifle. His desire for it but the inability to obtain it made it difficult for him to fall asleep, and the other creation mentioned by Ludwig whetted his appetite. Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for the thing he had been dreaming of to come true!

The servant had not seen West like this for a long time. He knew that the guest coming this time must be a distinguished guest, so he immediately arranged for people to make preparations and told the officer who was still waiting outside the door.

After receiving a positive response from the Gunnery Academy, he immediately rushed back.

The officer almost made the horse run as fast as possible and returned to the post station in the shortest time.

"Lord Gurman, I'm sorry for the delay. I've already confirmed with Lord West that he has prepared a banquet for you and is looking forward to your arrival with your companions. However, I'm really sorry that your car..."

"Chimera, we call it Chimera."

"It's a special name. I can only ask you to leave it in the military camp outside the city. Don't worry, we will treat it with care. You can also arrange for your soldiers to take care of it. I hope you can understand that Countess Emmanolli will not allow such a machine to appear in the city."

"I can understand that."

Gurman then followed the officer into Nuln with only Bourne, Belegar, Mudifar, and 10 Terran Guards.

The feeling that Nuln gives people is different from other places. It is countless times more lively and prosperous than Faldorf in Sol Territory.

The streets are bustling with people, and you can see all kinds of people here. One reason is that Nuln's Gunnery Academy produces almost half of the various artillery pieces in the entire empire. There is no Elector who does not need these things. They will send people to purchase them, and the children of their families will come to study.

It also brought economic vitality to the city. Not only the Gunnery School, Nuln was also an important place for metal ore trading. The dwarves of Karak Desolate Keep in the Black Mountains had a very good relationship with Nuln. Various metal ores continuously flowed into Nuln, and then passed through the factories and forges of the Gunnery School, and finally became weapons in the hands of the imperial soldiers.

The huge economy brought by mineral weapons makes Nuln particularly prosperous.

Many dwarves could be seen on the road, and some even greeted Belegar.

“Hahaha, Gurman, do you see that dwarf with a scar on his face? I fought with him decades ago. I didn’t expect to meet him here again!”

Belegar was very happy to meet his old friend.

While chatting, they also arrived at the final destination of this trip, Noon Gunnery Academy.

The academy is surrounded by walls that are five or six meters high on all four sides, making it look exceptionally magnificent among the surrounding buildings. The walls are all made of limestone, but the limestone has been blackened by the soot produced by forging and fire explosions in the academy over the past two hundred years.

Several taller towers were built within the walls, which serve as both research sites and office spaces.

On the other side built along the river are the training ground, blacksmith shop, dormitory, and artillery testing area.

Gulman and others smelled a strong smell of gunpowder outside the door.

"Lord Gurman, this is it. From now on, the people from the academy will lead the way for you."

"Ok."

After bidding farewell to the officer, the servant who had been waiting at the door stepped forward.

"My lords from Terrad, and my dwarven friends, come quickly. Lord West has prepared a feast for you."

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord West."

Led by the servants, everyone entered the banquet hall of the Gunnery Academy, where a man had already been waiting inside, neatly dressed.

"Hahaha, I'm West. Everyone, I finally got you here. Hey? Where's Count Ludwig? Why can't I see him?" West was looking for Ludwig in the crowd.

"Lord West, my name is Gurman. Count Ludwig is still on his way back. I will lead the visit this time. Don't worry, we have brought what you want and we will not let you down."

After hearing Gurman's words, West's expression changed from disappointment to expectation.

"Everyone, please take a seat, or the food will get cold!"

As West spoke, he observed the group of people in front of him, and he was soon attracted by Mudifar in the crowd.

Mudifar's perfectly fitted mechanical limbs immediately caught West's interest. Perhaps because they were both craftsmen, he could see the common ground between the two at a glance.

"Who is this"

"My name is Mudifar, a craftsman from Terra." Mudifar introduced himself.

"Lord West, Mudifar must be the person you want to meet on this trip."
