Things about the female knight in black stockings

Although she had pulled Frigia out of the shadow before coming, Frigia slipped back into the shadow when she entered the church.Because Frigia is not a believer of the Sun Goddess, she can easily be misunderstood by other priests and paladins when she walks casually in the church.

"You don't need to shout, sister, I can move myself."

The charming voice appeared out of thin air, and before Valensa could call out, Frigia gracefully walked out of Valencia's shadow... She also made a shadow door and shadow stairs on the ground, stepping on the black with red background. The high heels walked up step by step.

!

The moment Frigia completely stepped onto the ground, the room suddenly became cold again... The temperature obviously did not drop at all, and the tea and coffee on the desk were still steaming.

But Valensa couldn't help but shiver, and subconsciously hugged Lika next to her, and rubbed her slightly a few times as if she wanted to use kinetic energy to generate heat.

Click!

Behind Valencia's original standing position, there was a sudden sound of ice breaking, and Frigia, who had just stepped out of the shadow, completely turned into small ice particles and scattered on the ground.

"Oh my, are you so rude to me, sister, right from the start?"

But Frigia's charming voice was still there, and the small ice particles on the ground melted rapidly, turning into drops of ink-like liquid, which re-condensed and transformed into Frigia's appearance again.

"……Humph."

Velenkasa, who was exuding an inexplicable coldness, also calmed down after snorting. Her long ice-colored hair returned to light blue, and her snowflake-shaped eyes turned into ordinary light black eyes:

"Absolute immortality. Even if it is shattered by extreme cold without any energy protection, it can be completely reborn within a few seconds... It's the same as what my sister told me."

"Your sister...oh~~I remembered."

Frigia recalled it for a few seconds, then clapped her hands together:

"Among the saints who participated in sealing me back then, there was a high-level frost demon named Vismia. Is that your sister?"

"Yes."

Velencasa's tone remained calm, and it was completely impossible to tell that she had just violently attacked Frigia and killed her:

"My sister and I are twins. We changed the guard 900 years ago under the orders of the Goddess Crown...My sister went to the planet where I worked before, and I came to this planet - Eve."

After saying this, without giving Frigia another chance to interrupt, Wilenkasa turned to look at Valencia and stretched out three fingers wrapped in purple stockings:

“I came here for three things.

First, to verify the identity of the original witch, confirm whether she is truly harmless, and monitor and protect her until she is confirmed to be harmless.

Second, after the initial harmlessness of the witch was confirmed, the entire biological experiment she applied for was supervised, her dangerous behavior during the experiment was stopped, and various experimental accidents were dealt with.

Third, the headquarters believes that with Valencia’s talent and bloodline, the conventional training methods of paladin and priest are not suitable for you, so when monitoring the original witch, I will also be responsible for guiding you in sword skills and divine arts. On the practice.

In addition, although I am a saint, except for the above three things, I will not interfere in the church affairs of France in any way. Your work can continue as usual. "

"Yes, Lady Saint!" x3

Valencia, Lika and Fran saluted respectfully to express acceptance of the mission.

Then Valencia raised her head again, with a curious look on her face:

"Did the headquarters actually approve Frigia's research application? I thought this kind of research involving human trials would not be approved..."

"We really don't want to approve this application."

Wilenkasha still had a cold face and her voice had no fluctuation:

"But she is the original witch who possesses countless knowledge! Instead of letting her secretly do things after being rejected and eventually cause a big disaster, it would be better to monitor her research all the time!

Although she is not bound by human morality, she is also proud and will never break her promise. "

Chapter 113 Return to the ruins

If life was a role-playing game, then there should be this sentence in the information area of ​​Valencia's chat box:

[Saint Virenkasa has joined the team (temporary)]

As she said, the saint did not give any orders, nor did she interfere in Valencia's plan. She was just supervising Frigia silently.

Friggia seems to be very satisfied with the small room she made out of Valencia's shadow. Whenever Valencia goes out, she will lie down and sleep in Valencia's shadow.

When people walk normally outdoors, their shadows are usually under their feet, so Wilencasa always lowers her head when standing next to Valencia, saying that she is monitoring Frigia.

But Valencia could clearly feel that the eager gaze was actually staring at her black silk legs.

She really wanted to ask the other person in a teasing tone, "Are my black stockings beautiful?" But after all, the two of them had just met and were not familiar with each other. Valencia had an ascetic and cold expression on her face, so Valensa still endured it. .

Let’s get down to business first.

According to the plan, there are many things to do next.

Collect the materials for making the special information instant solvent that activates the self-destruction command of the wild beast, choose a piece of wilderness as a development target and apply to the king for a "Development Order", practice the spells taught by Frigia, and conduct detailed exploration and repair of underground ruins.

But these things can be done slowly. The most important thing at the moment is to quickly establish a stable spatial coordinate in the underground ruins. The one I left when I came back can only last for a little more than five days, which is not enough at all.

After returning to the Royal Capital from the Third Fortress, Tia has been purchasing high-quality non-attributed magic crystals in large quantities through her connections.

However, in just two days, the price of non-attributed magic crystals in the royal capital increased by nearly 12%, and some merchants who got the information took action, making it very difficult to buy non-attributed magic crystals.

This made Tia very angry, but there was nothing good she could do.

Although she is considered a wealthy woman as a big noble, most of her wealth is in industries such as wineries, shops, and mines. Her pure cash flow is still far behind that of big businessmen.

There is still a big gap in the non-attributed magic crystal needed to develop and repair the ruins, but it is enough to establish a non-attributed magic crystal that can stably transfer coordinates.

Before the space coordinates left behind became invalid due to exhaustion of energy, Tia once again activated the secret space link technique that can be used for remote transmission, and took Valencia, Frigia and Wilenkasa to the underground ruins.

"I'll first investigate the situation of the wild beasts nearby."

Tia skillfully activated the spirit clone spell again, summoning 60 figurine-sized spirits, Little Tia, and used the spirit's ability to ignore physical obstacles to get out of the ground and quietly explore.

"Then let me modify this."

Frigia picked up the energy converter that she had made with fantasy alchemy before, and licked the corner of her mouth and glanced at Valencia's silver breastplate:

"Now it can only convert raw biological energy into magic power. I want to readjust the parameters so that it can directly draw magic power from non-attributed magic crystals.

In terms of quality, magic crystal is definitely not as good as the original biological energy, even if it is a so-called high-quality magic crystal... the energy loss of this modified thing will be greater than before.

With the number of non-attributed magic crystals we currently have, it may not take long to repair the other modules here and maintain the spatial coordinates. "

"It's all those damn profiteers' fault!"

Upon hearing this, Valensa couldn't help but poke the ground with her black stocking toes:

"After knowing that Tia needed a large amount of non-attributed magic crystals, they all started to hoard the goods and raise the prices. Some people even planned to use this to buy Tia's winery at a low price. It's so abominable!"

"It's business, it's normal."

Frigia smiled and shrugged:

"Before resources and productivity reach a certain level, any civilized business will be bloody and cruel. Businessmen who are not profiteers will have gone bankrupt long ago. All people who stand at the top of the business can definitely be called bastards regardless of their appearance."

"There are indeed enough bastards..."

Valencia murmured a few more words, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw Velenkasha taking off her long windbreaker again and only wearing purple strapless stockings.

Her eyes lit up, and she suddenly thought that the Saint had the authority to build the Sacred Gate. The transmission of this kind of artifact was more stable and efficient than space magic, and it did not require any energy consumption to maintain.

If you can build a sacred gate in this underground ruins, you can not only save a batch of non-attributed magic crystals used to maintain spatial coordinates, but you can also recruit people from the church to help when you encounter strong enemies here. No matter how you think about it, They are all very profitable.

"Lord Wilenkasa..."

For this saint who still has a cold and ascetic expression even though she is wearing very astringent stockings, Valencia still maintains the honorific title:

"If I want to build a sacred gate here, what are the conditions?"

"Just turn this place into a land favored by the goddess."

As soon as Velenkasa spoke, the surrounding temperature obviously did not drop, but it still made people feel cold... Maybe this is also one of the talents of high-level frost demons?

Guessing in her mind, Valencia showed a more obedient smile:

"Then I would like to ask, Lord Saint, how can we make an ownerless wasteland be favored by the goddess?"

Wilenkasa's eyes suddenly became stern.

You don't even know this?

Wilenkasha didn't say anything, but her eyes clearly meant this.

And with her glare and gaze, Valencia obviously felt herself getting colder.

This kind of coldness is very strange. It is not the kind of coldness that reduces the temperature objectively, but a kind of subjective coldness, as if her feelings have been deceived. It is obviously not cold but it is cold enough to make her shiver.

...It has quite a strange ability.

Muttering in her heart, Valensa had another flash of inspiration in her mind. It seemed that a certain problem that had troubled her before had been solved, but there were still some shortcomings that could not be completely solved.

She closed one eye subconsciously, and while continuing to pursue the fleeting inspiration, she continued to pretend to be well-behaved and pitiful towards Velenkasa:

"Well... I'm sorry to disappoint you, Holy Lady. I know this may be one of the common sense of being an Inner Temple Knight, but my father passed away before he could teach me... If it weren't for Sister Rika, I wouldn't even be here. I know that our family has been members of the church for generations.”

"..."

This trick worked really well, the cold feeling on Valencia's body disappeared almost instantly, and Willencasa's eyes suddenly softened.

“Number of believers with stable lives.”

Still with that cold and plain ascetic voice, the Holy Lady announced the answer:

"Ten thousand believers living here stably for more than half a year can transform this land into a land favored by the goddess."

Chapter 114 Pudding Wings

Ten thousand believers...lived peacefully for more than half a year...

Valencia sighed helplessly and gave up the idea of ​​building a sacred gate.

In the Land of Wild Ridge, achieving this condition may be more difficult than purchasing enough high-quality non-attributed magic crystals at a reasonable price.

Not to mention that the French people would not consider moving to the Desolate Ridge at all. The nuclear radiation remaining on the ground above the ruins alone is enough to make this place unsuitable for ordinary people to live.

Moreover, Valencia had no intention of running the territory at all. She wanted this place and just wanted to make it a secret base. She had no intention of letting ordinary people settle here.

...We can only find other ways to supply energy to the ruins. For example, we can go to the largest chamber of commerce in France to purchase high-quality non-attribute magic crystals, or we can try to get Wei to help us get energy from the cyberpunk world. A small reactor.

We don't expect black technology like Iron Man's arc reactor. A larger reactor doesn't matter. Anyway, the capacity of the magic cloak's storage space is sufficient, and Frigia definitely has a way to convert the energy generated by the nuclear reactor into magic power.

It happens to be the end of the month soon, so I'll ask if Wei calls me over to play.

While Valencia's mind was racing, Tia also summoned 60 spirits to complete the investigation of the ground situation, and synchronized the detection results with everyone using projection magic.

Valensa has never seen the daily life of wild beasts. Phrygia has been sealed for more than 1000 years. It is also the first time for Velenkasha to come to the continent of Frenoia.

The female knight and the first-generation witch were very interested and moved closer to the magic projection. The saint also cast a curious look at the magic projection.

Outside the scope of the self-destruct command, the wild beasts built simple camps with stones in every direction. There were thousands of ordinary wild beasts and a small number of elite warriors in each camp. They seemed determined to destroy this area. Conduct long-term surveillance.

It was almost dinner time, and it was the first time for the girls to see with their own eyes how miserable the food eaten by the wild beasts was.

Perhaps it is also the sun goddess's little selfishness. All intelligent life forms in this world have similar food needs to Valencia's previous life.

Carbohydrates are a necessity, and the more vegetables and meats the better, and beasts are no exception.

However, in a place like the Wild Ridge, there are no high-quality and delicious carbohydrates such as wheat flour and rice for the wild beasts to eat.

The food used by the wild beasts to supplement carbohydrates is a plant similar to potatoes. It is very adaptable to the environment and can barely be grown in the wilderness.

But the texture and taste were very poor. Valenza and the others could clearly see through the magic projection that most wild beasts would find it difficult to swallow this kind of food.

Ordinary wild beasts can basically only get a small piece of this potato-like food, and only those elite warriors of wild beasts can eat more.

It is said to be a meal, but it is also the kind that most humans would find unappetizing.

One is certain fungi. Based on her experience as an adventurer, Valencia speculated that these fungi should be wild fungi that grow in relatively humid places, and most of them are likely to be poisonous.

But those wild beast warriors were not afraid at all. They crushed all kinds of colorful wild fungi with stones and spread them on the potato-like staple food, eating them with gusto.

In addition to these colorful wild mushroom sauces, another side dish for the elite wild beast warriors may be relatively more toxic.

It was a stew of various poisonous insects including poisonous scorpions and centipedes in a large iron pot. It was black with green and purple colors, and it looked like a very deadly dish. But it was regarded as a delicacy by the elite warriors of the wild beasts. Every time they took a sip, their expressions would be in a trance for more than ten seconds, which was quite enjoyable.

Of course, it may not be enjoyment, but they may be in a daze due to being poisoned.

But this may be the reason why only elite wild beast warriors have side dishes to eat. If the wild beasts who eat these side dishes are not strong enough, they may die on the spot.

Seeing the wild beasts eating dinner, Valenza and the others realized that they were also a little hungry, so they unanimously decided to eat first after working.

Valensa was still the chef. In addition to the cakes she bought in advance at a well-known dessert shop in the capital, Valensa cooked three more dishes, all of which were simple and delicious.
