Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey
Page 290
You just need to find a few big trees over ten meters tall and use them as bridges, then you can build a simple wooden bridge.
Suixiang feels that with the forest as their hunting ground, no matter how difficult life is for the people here, they will not live like in the story.
Because of what Suika said before, Gerald was a little resistant to her and didn't want to talk to her.
But as a leader, he knew very well that he had no money to be awkward.
He forced himself to calm down, not thinking about what Suika said, and then said
“We have explored the situation in the north several times, but to no avail.
Although ten meters is not long, we have no way and no resources to build a bridge.
And there aren’t any trees that big around here.”
Suika was not surprised that the other party had already investigated the other side. She would be surprised if he really knew nothing about that side.
“What if I could find the right trees to build a bridge?”
Suika asked.
“Although the church is short of supplies, if we can build a basic wooden bridge, I can allocate resources to reinforce it.
But there aren’t any trees that big around here.”
As soon as Gerald finished speaking, Suika shook her finger.
“Although there are no trees this long here, there are some across the street.
It's a bit late today, let's take people over there tomorrow. I have a way to get enough large trees from the other side, and then you can arrange for people to reinforce the bridge."
"You really can?" Gerald still couldn't believe it.
"Hey, you're doubting me, I'm angry!"
Suika said with her hands on her hips and a ferocious expression.
"Lemont, take your men and follow Suika to the north to check out the situation tomorrow!"
Gerald thought about it and looked up to see Lemont secretly looking at him from a distance, so he called him over and handed the matter over to him.
"North? Suika, are you going to the canyon?" Lemont didn't hear the two people talking. He just saw Suika suddenly grinning at Gerald and was a little worried, so he looked at this side a few more times. He didn't expect that he would be conscripted by Gerald.
"Uh-huh."
Seeing that Gerald still didn't believe it, Suika stopped explaining.
After all, there are some things that you can't gain people's trust just by talking.
Especially since she had just dealt the other party a heavy blow.
He did not refuse to communicate with Suika, but instead listened carefully to Suika's words and arranged for people to play tricks on her. It can be said that Gerald's magnanimity is greater than many people.
Therefore, such a small lack of trust would not trigger a situation where things change over time.
At night, Suika slept in a newly built cabin.
Thanks to the temperate climate here, even though there is nothing in the house, you won't feel cold at night.
The next morning, after getting up, Suika called Lemont, and then took two equally young Sarkaz and headed towards the canyon in the north.
On the way, Lemont introduced his fellow travelers.
One of them is called an acute angle and the other is called an obtuse angle.
It sounds strange, but that's the name of most Sarkaz.
The Sarkaz, with a per capita education of only 10, do not have that many intellectuals to name people, and most people's names are similar code names.
They were also used to using this kind of name to distinguish each other. In Acute's words, his own name was much better than a name like Lemont that sounded unrecognizable.
The four of them came to the canyon laughing and joking
“This canyon is very long and deep, going up into the territory of Lateran.
It’s about thirty to forty kilometers down there.
And there are often strong winds blowing there.
We have tried to build bridges before, but they were always blown away."
Standing on the edge of the cliff, Lemont said to Suika.
Cuixiang felt that the canyon was very deep and the wind directions on both sides were very chaotic. Her original plan was to use a tree more than ten meters high as the main trunk, but after arriving here, she realized that this plan would not work.
I also understand why Gerald is not interested.
But this doesn't pose a problem for Suika.
As the saying goes, quantitative change leads to qualitative change.
If one tree isn't enough, she'll use two. If the ten-meter tree isn't enough, she'll get thicker and longer trees.
"Be careful, don't stand too close. What do you think of this canyon?" Seeing Suika standing on the edge of the cliff for a long time without saying a word, Lemont was worried that she would be blown into the canyon by the wind, so he spoke up to remind her.
Suika nodded
"You three, stand here and don't leave. I'll be back soon!"
After saying that, he jumped lightly in front of the three stunned people, and then flew across the canyon to the other side in a light and graceful manner.
Before Lemont could react, he saw Suika dive into the forest opposite.
Chapter 515 Aulus
Two hours later, a group of people from the monastery stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the bridge in front of them, which was "built" with seven or eight large trees that were one meter thick and more than twenty meters long.
Some are speechless, but also a little excited.
What’s speechless is that this bridge is too rough.
Even the Sarkaz wouldn't use this kind of wood, which is simply cut from branches without even peeling the bark, as a bridge.
Suixiang said that they were surprised by what they saw, and that she learned her architectural skills from Gogo and Maogo, and although it looked a bit ugly, it was definitely durable.
These pieces of wood are not ordinary trees, but the famous ironwood which has the same strength as metal.
Fortunately, I had sharp eyes. I had originally planned to find a few thick and long ones, but I happened to see these ironwood trees that were growing so well.
Isn’t this the bridge-building material that’s delivered to your doorstep?
She didn't continue looking for other wood, but directly pulled out the thickest and longest ones and brought them over.
By the time Obtuse told Gerald what happened here, and Gerald told the bishop, and then they brought their men here, Suixiang had already tied the wood together with vines on the cliff, creating a wooden bridge that looked a bit exaggerated.
Gerald stood on the bridge with a look of surprise on his face.
He stamped his feet, feeling the solidity under his feet, and there was surprise in his eyes.
After bending down and carefully observing the huge tree under his feet, his eyes were filled with even more surprise.
Because he also recognized that this kind of wood was the famous ironwood.
Looking at the wooden bridge, he felt a little distressed for a moment.
Ironwood is a good thing. With so much ironwood, we can completely renovate the monastery from the inside out, and there will be some left to make weapons.
Now it's just a bridge.
Fortunately, the cut branches were not thrown away and are still left nearby. They can be of great use if they are taken back.
And with this bridge, they can come to the forest in the north to hunt, which is very good news for the monastery.
Looking at the lush forest opposite, Gerald felt a sense of pride for a moment.
With such a large forest as hunting ground, he was sure that the monastery would not be troubled by hunger.
The old bishop took Suika's hand and thanked her for her help to the monastery.
Suika was about to speak when she saw two little angels who had somehow made their way to the edge of the cliff, and were curiously observing the canyon.
At this moment, a strange wind suddenly blew and the two men lost their balance and fell to the cliff.
"careful!"
Lemont, who was not far away, saw the two people falling and rushed over without hesitation.
then
The three of them fell into the canyon together.
While everyone was still shocked by the tragedy, suddenly shouts came from far away in the canyon.
They saw the three people who fell fly back like this.
Not far away, Suika breathed a sigh of relief.
She sensed danger the moment she saw someone in the group that had come with the old bishop and Gerald.
So she specially placed a few small incense sticks in the canyon in case of emergency.
I didn't expect that this backhand was not triggered.
The three of them fell into the crowd with confused looks on their faces. Everyone rushed over to see if they were injured.
"What's going on?" Gerald came over and asked loudly.
The three of them were still a little frightened by the sudden series of events, looking confused and not knowing what had happened.
Finally, Lemont spoke
“I saw Fortuna and Delphine fall and followed them.
When I was in the air, I saw the two of them floating up, and then I felt myself lighten, and then I also floated up..."
After he finished speaking, the two little Sakota angels nodded quickly.
Just now they all thought they were dead, but they didn't expect to escape death.
Although I don’t know why this happened, being alive is better than being dead.
"This canyon is too dangerous. Everyone in the hunting team must be careful when traveling there."
Someone said.
Just now everyone was happy about the construction of this bridge, but now when someone fell, everyone felt a little resistant for a moment.
Suika looked at the man at the edge of the crowd who looked as gentle and elegant as her classmates.
“It’s indeed a bit unsafe, and we need to install a guardrail.
What do you think of this, sir?"
The person Suika was staring at smiled and nodded slightly.
"Installing guardrails is indeed the most effective method."
Suika walked over with a happy face
“It seems great minds think alike.
but…"
In the next second, Suixiang suddenly jumped up and swung her fist at the opponent.
The fist tore through the air, creating a sound like a cannonball.
"Boom!"
The man flew more than ten meters and rolled several times on the ground before landing.
Faced with Suixiang's sudden attack, everyone present reacted.
By the time they took action, the other party had already rolled on the ground several times.
"What's going on?" Gerald felt that he was unable to react to these sudden events.
……
"Brother Aulus... do you have any hatred?" The bishop asked uncertainly, looking at the man lying on the ground.
"I met him for the first time today." Suika said calmly.
"Then why did you kill someone?" Gerald couldn't understand why Suika killed him directly when it was their first meeting.
Suika pointed at the "corpse" in the distance and said
"Didn't any of you notice that he smells like the sea..."
