[Ancient Guardian] took root and became a big tree, and [Tree Spirit] gave birth to some vines that acted like fences, dividing the pirates from large groups into small teams, with dozens of people in a group.
He didn't care about the next task, and left the acceptance of prisoners to Merry and the people on Green Valley Street.
"Done!"
In the study of the Low Hill Villa, Lucas pushed away the chair and stood up, doing a few stretching exercises on the spot, hugged Emily beside him, and kissed her hard a few times.
The other women were also in the study. Seeing this, they all breathed a sigh of relief and the atmosphere immediately became relaxed.
Claire stood up, stretched and yawned: "I'm going to the living room to continue watching the show."
Hope was sighing: "Ah, I thought I could have a few more days off, but it's only been less than half a day and classes are about to start in the afternoon, right?"
Laurel and Zhuo Yisi didn't say anything, but looked at each other with a smile on their faces, and replaced their anxiety with thinking about what to eat for lunch.
Emily's eyes turned when she heard Hope's words. She hugged Lucas' waist and secretly pushed him hard, and walked out of the study door:
"I'm going back to my room with Lucas to catch up on some sleep."
Lucas looked down at her, and they understood each other's thoughts. Just by looking at each other, he knew what this girl was planning.
Although I didn't feel tired, I still went along with her. I didn't think that this girl was half planning to skip class... I said, "Well, I'm going back to my room to catch up on my sleep. I may not get up at noon. You don't need to bring my lunch."
"Got it, Boss."
……
It took less than half a day. By noon, the community had returned to its normal order, except that the alert had not been completely lifted.
As Hope expected, the [Magic Skills Academy] also resumed classes.
After lunch, Hope originally wanted to ask Emily to go to class together. She went upstairs and knocked on the door but no one answered. She thought that the two were not awake yet, so she pushed the door open and walked in.
By the time I noticed the clothes scattered all over the floor, it was too late. I saw a woman's naked butt exposed on the bed.
Hope was very familiar with those two dazzlingly white beautiful legs. It was undoubtedly her best friend Emily.
She made a face and tiptoed out, feeling a little regretful that it wasn't Lucas's butt.
It's not that she likes Lucas as much as Emily does. She likes Lucas, but not in the same way that men and women like him... It's simply because she doesn't like Emily's butt.
……
The work of receiving and treating the prisoners of war went smoothly.
There is open space everywhere under the rattan greenhouse, so there is no need to build a house, and the room temperature can reach 26 or 27 degrees.
Merry and several of her men mastered the skills of communicating with the [Tree Spirit]. They brought the pirate prisoners whose organization had been disrupted and whose weapons had been confiscated to the detention place, and communicated with the [Tree Spirit] by making gestures and making "oh oh ah ah" like monkeys. The [Tree Spirit] understood and used the tools they carried with them, grafted some vines or cast natural spells to directly create sturdy fence-like derivatives on the [Steel Thorns], and built a detention place that could accommodate the prisoners.
It is now also very simple to treat wounded prisoners of war.
The combination of "Moon Well Water" and surgical procedures can cure a moderately injured patient in an average of 30 minutes.
For injuries such as broken limbs or ruptured internal organs, as long as the patient can endure until the surgery is completed by the idle doctors at Guanyingshan Hospital, they can almost always be saved by drinking a few sips of "Moon Well Water".
Even the symptoms of excessive blood loss can be recovered in a very short time.
Moreover, the treatment methods of these modern doctors at Guanyingshan Hospital shocked all the pirates.
Their medical level is still at the stage where professional doctors compete to torture patients, and the treatment results are not even as good as the strange treatments of some unreliable shamans or witch doctors.
For example, in real history, King Charles II of England suffered from convulsions due to some acute illness at the age of 55 (February 2). His royal physician began the treatment by draining 1 ml of blood and then feeding him highly toxic antimony.
In the following days, he was scalded with blisters on his body with hot copper rods, and he was fed emetics and laxatives made from tartar. It was hard to tell whether it was witchcraft or medicine. These potions were poured into Charles II's body through chrysanthemums...
Their hair was shaved, their scalp cleaned with water, 300 milliliters of blood was drained, and their feet were smeared with pigeon droppings.
It should be said that Charles II was still very strong and he did not die on the spot after going through so much trouble.
After resting for eleven hours, he took forty drops of an essence said to be extracted from a human skull, and also ate a stomach stone from an East Indian goat, ground into powder from the bark of a Peruvian tree, mixed with a laxative and poured it down his throat.
The above process was repeated more than once until February 2, when Charles II finally passed away... It is difficult to say whether he was defeated by the disease or by the doctor.
It should be said that Charles II's royal physician represented the highest-level medical force in the whole of Europe at that time.
In this magical world... at least the medical level of these pirates is still at this stage, which is also the biggest reason why they were attracted after seeing the magic of "Moon Well Water".
However, precisely because all of them carried the "Moon Well Water" which had not yet lost its effect, most of the wounded drank it directly without treating their wounds when they were injured. As a result, they had to undergo a second operation during subsequent treatment. They had to cut open the wounds that had already healed and search for the bullet inside, or re-break the bones that had been randomly connected, carefully straighten them and re-fix them after connecting them in the correct way.
Many injured people suffered a lot as a result.
……
Lucas adjusted his biological clock the next day.
After Emily and Hope left home for class, he took his two secretaries, drove to Green Valley Street, and took over the follow-up work of handling the thirteen pirate warships.
Because they would be exposed to the outside environment, the three of them changed into winter clothes that were convenient for movement.
Thirteen pirate warships remained in the same posture as when they were captured by the [Ancient Guardians] yesterday. They were scattered in the open space outside the wall of Reyes Farm and still suspended in the air entangled by tree branches. However, in order to ensure safety, for example, if these pirate warships lost their buoyancy, Lucas mobilized some [Ancient Guardians] and asked the [Tree Spirits] to help modify their posture after taking root, forming a structure like a slipway to fix them on both sides of these warships.
All the useful supplies on the pirate warships were looted, such as the iron cannons. For Guanying Mountain, these backward weapons were not even as good as fire sticks. If they were magic cannons, they would be of some use, but unfortunately they were primitive cannons. Yesterday afternoon, the front cannons on each warship were dismantled and taken to the weapons workshop in the lower area as ordinary iron materials for smelting and further use.
The people of Guanyingshan don't even look down on the food, clothes and other things on the battleship. The drinking water on the ship is smelly and has a strange odor. The food is mealworms, which are high-protein supplements. Moreover, rats are rampant and the sanitary conditions are extremely poor.
Fearing infectious diseases or other unknown viruses, these things, along with the pirate who died on the spot yesterday, were all burned.
With the help of [elves] to make wood, there is plenty of firewood in Crown Eagle Mountain.
[Tree Fairies] brought thousands of stray cats from the community, and with their own special abilities, they worked on the boat for a whole night before they managed to drive out all the rats.
While checking the bottom of the cabin, the Dryad also found some strange creatures in the cells in the bottom of the cabin, about twenty of them, less than knee-high, with long ears similar to those of elves, but not as long as those of night elves, slightly shorter, and a big nose. Their faces were not as ugly as the goblins in Gringotts in "Harry Potter". Their faces... well, they were not ugly.
He wore a conical hat and his shoes had pointed toes that were curled backwards.
Seeing them wearing shackles and locked in a cell below the cabin, they must be slaves captured by the pirates from somewhere, right?
I just don't know what kind of creatures they are. Lucas thinks they are like Pixies or close relatives of some elves. They must have some special abilities, which is why they were captured and sold as slaves by the pirates.
[Tree fairies] don’t have their own language yet - Lucas is considering whether to upload a copy of the Xinhua Dictionary and Level 8 Chinese to them and let them speak Chinese. However, using their special abilities, they can communicate with these big fairies... Lucas decided to call them big fairies for the time being.
[Tree Spirit] can communicate with the "Big Spirits". Lucas usually carries his "mobile phone" with him. Through the phone, he roughly understands the intentions of these "Big Spirits".
Illustration.
They want to go home.
But their home was on another floating island similar to Crowned Eagle Mountain, and no one except the pirates knew its exact location, so Lucas could do nothing to help.
After some communication with the [Tree Fairy], these "big fairies", both men and women, agreed to temporarily live in Crown Eagle Mountain.
Lucas felt that he had half of the property rights, and the other half of the property rights would be secured in the future. A short mountain would be good. For the time being, he didn't know what special abilities these "big goblins" had, so he would just raise them like chickens...
After dealing with the problem of the "Goblin", Lucas began to fulfill the purpose of this trip and carefully inspect the internal structure of these warships.
The structure of these pirate warships was basically the same as the galleons he knew.
Lucas used to be a craftsman. He made some exquisite ship models according to proportions and structures and sold them online. When he met collectors who really liked his ship models, and his ship models were also made very well, one ship model could be sold for six figures at the time. Basically, if he sold one, he would earn a year's income.
He was a little confused as to how this could be a flying battleship. The sails could be understood as relying on air flow, but why did the hull have to follow the galleon type? It was obvious that there were more structures that were more suitable for the characteristics of a floating battleship.
However, after he discovered that the bottom of the cabin was not only dark but also very damp, he did not check the keel that glowed brightly in the darkness. Instead, he first came outside the ship and had an [Ancient Guardian] hold him up by his hands while he checked the outside of the hull up and down.
Now I can understand why they are all spaceships but still retain the appearance and structure of surface ships.
Although the bottom of the ship has been cleaned, there are still many traces of barnacles remaining.
This kind of pirate warship may still mainly sail on the sea wherever it is, so it retains the sail and galleon ship structure.
"Barnacles only grow in seawater, right?"
"There is a sea on a floating island... The area is at least a hundred or a thousand times larger than Crown Eagle Mountain, and it may even be a complete planet."
"So, these pirates either come from a land space with sea areas in the "Misty Realm Space", or they come in through the space channel and come from a "world" outside the Misty Realm Space?"
After figuring this out, Lucas began to investigate the secret of how wooden warships could fly.
0063
"Good morning, Mr. Lucas."
"Good morning, John."
Wearing a coat, a scarf and a gun on his back, John Wick greeted Lucas.
In order to avoid accidents, such as curious children in the community exploring the pirate ship, John and several colleagues were sent to guard the vacant land on the Reyes Farm.
The pirate warship had been cleaned up, but there were still some dangerous or weird places. For example, when the militia checked a cabin, they found a large number of poisonous insects such as wasps, venomous snakes, and scorpions. However, because it was cold in Guanying Mountain, these poisonous insects had little resistance to the cold. After losing their care, they all froze to death in less than half a day, but no casualties were caused.
Later, when the pirate prisoners of war were interrogated, they found out that this cabin originally belonged to a pirate first mate. This first mate should be considered a supernatural person. He knew some "witchcraft", such as "summoning a swarm of bees", and could also make some voodoo items.
When attacking the city wall, his swarm of bees and several other poisonous creatures could not be summoned due to weather reasons. When he was attacked by the [Ancient Guardian] at close range, he did blow a cloud of poisonous smoke onto the tree man's face. Unfortunately, the [Ancient Guardian] was basically immune to poison attacks, and he was swept into the air by the tree man. When he fell, he luckily hit a pirate. The pirate was seriously injured, but not dead, and he was not dead either. Both of them successfully entered the prisoner-of-war camp alive.
"Good morning, ladies."
"Good morning, John."
When Lucas came to inspect the pirate ship, he naturally brought two secretaries with him to assist him in taking notes or other chores. With their advanced education, they learned things very quickly.
Because it was unknown when these pirate warships would lose their power to float, Lucas had mobilized more [Ancient Guardians] in the past few days to concentrate the three warships first.
These pirate warships still floating in the air were not difficult to move. Not to mention the [Ancient Guardians], even a dozen [Tree Spirits] could drag them by pulling on the cables, like hot air balloons.
That is to clean up the supplies on the ship, such as the smelly water in the water tank, the food with insects and the cast iron cannons, causing these warships to float higher in the sky without any load. Fortunately, the [Ancient Guardian] itself has enough weight, and it has not untied the entanglement with the hull, so they did not fly higher and lose control.
In addition, the buoyancy of these pirate warships is quite large. Lucas estimates that they may have a carrying capacity of five to six thousand tons. Because of its elemental body, the density of an [Ancient Guardian] is comparable to that of steel, and it weighs hundreds of tons. Such a tree man cannot hold up a pirate warship. It requires at least two [Ancient Guardians] in a rooted state to fix a pirate warship.
For the sake of safety, an ordinary 50-meter pirate warship has four [Ancient Guardians] incarnated as "Y"-shaped fixed frames underneath to support it, and it also gives birth to a large number of branches that wrap around the hull.
The flagship, which is over seventy meters long, is even worse, with eight [Ancient Guardians] on the bottom of the ship.
……
Possessing the "mysterious knowledge" in his head, plus his own "what
It took Lucas less than two days to figure out the key to why these pirate warships could fly.
He had a basic understanding of the structure of the "Gallen Type". After a cursory visit to the inside and outside of a warship, he knew what the hull structure was and what were the attached items, not to mention that these attachments had obvious mysterious symbols and glowing textures similar to circuit boards.
It was not some special magical material, nor was the keel of the ship itself made of some rare and precious material. It was not any magic or spell that could allow magicians or other extraordinary beings to fly. The keel was just ordinary wood. Even the manufacturing process of these galleons was similar to what he knew about hundreds of years ago.
The only difference is that these attachments on the dragon bones are made of relatively cheap and very common magic-friendly materials. Without destroying the strength of the dragon bones, many magic patterns are engraved on the dragon bones... to be precise, they are magic patterns composed of several magic runes. When magic power passes through, this magic pattern will generate anti-gravity buoyancy.
In addition to the keel, the area beneath the several main decks of the ship is also covered with these anti-gravity magic patterns, as well as the magic pathways connected to each magic pattern.
The pirates made an extremely crude device that could stably deliver magic power to the magic patterns distributed throughout the ship. By controlling the strength of the output magic power, they could control the warship's floating height.
They don't even have a "magic power furnace", and use a very primitive "magic source" made up of many magic crystals and magic beasts.
Lucas didn't recognize these magic runes, and he didn't know the principle behind why the magic patterns they formed could produce anti-gravity buoyancy. He estimated that the pirates didn't know either. They might have discovered the effectiveness of this combination of magic patterns by chance and applied it to their warships.
In the past few days, by mapping the exposed anti-gravity magic patterns on various warships, Lucas easily cracked the "anti-gravity magic pattern" application technology that the pirates had summarized after who knows how many years of exploration.
He also made some small gadgets in the workshop in his basement to verify the technology he had acquired.
With the "mystical knowledge" in his head and various modern equipment in the workshop, his means of making "anti-gravity magic patterns" are far superior to those of the pirates.
……
Now that it has been confirmed that these pirates are not native to the "Misty Realm Space", the communication problem will be much easier to solve.
Several hundred years ago, English was not yet a world language. Even in Europe, its application scope was very small. Due to historical and religious reasons, Spanish, Italian and Latin were probably the common languages.
Guanying Mountain used to be an upscale community, so it was easy to find a few people who could speak these languages. You could walk around a dozen prisoner-of-war camps with a loud speaker and find pirates who could speak these languages among the prisoners.
By appointing these pirates as the heads of various prisoner-of-war camps, it only took Merry half a day to establish a management system for thousands of prisoners.
Because of this invasion, no one was killed or injured in Guanying Mountain... Well, there were some. There were a few people on Green Valley Street who were watching the fun on the roof of their house. When the large-scale iron ball shells were bombarded, they fell and got scratched. But after taking a sip of water from the Moon Well, they recovered. Even if there was no water from the Moon Well, this incident would not have been counted as a serious casualty.
The United States or America is very rigorous in this regard. For example, during the Korean War, Walton Walker, a three-star general of the US Army who was counterattacked by the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, was not counted in the casualties list. Instead, he died in a traffic accident (it is said that he was killed by a Korean car that hit a valley).
There was also the Miami building collapse incident. The whereabouts of the missing are unknown, even if there are hundreds of people missing, they cannot be included in the casualty report. The president personally went to the scene, but he was just like other onlookers and internet celebrities, checking in and mourning at the scene. At night, he lit candles and sang and danced to broadcast it live, like some evil cult scene...
In the end, tens of thousands of people watched and a rescue team of thousands of people rescued a cat. The media and public opinion were instantly excited. It was even reported on international news, and it became an international hot topic...
Let's get back to the point. No matter how you look at it, there were no casualties on Crown Eagle Mountain, so Merry didn't deliberately abuse these pirate captives.
With Lucas's advice, after a preliminary management system was established in the prisoner-of-war camp, she reformed the prisoners according to Lucas's instructions.
The first is sanitary and epidemic prevention measures.
The personal hygiene of these pirates is extremely poor. If it is not treated, disease or plague may break out.
