Arms dealer in another world

264 Undead General Project 1

The escort, which finished business at Calas, and to some extent, contact with Darkness, returned to the weapon factory.

The escort returned to investigate the Red Crystal Tribe and the weapons factory and immediately summoned the Dragon Warrior, Gilbert.

“Here it is. ”

Gilbert came to the guard's office with a document.

You reach out a pile. At a glance, it was clear that the documents were compiled of everything that had happened between the guard and the factory and the tribe.

“Well done. Let's finish these documents and read them. ”

“Weren't you looking for this? ”

“Of course, reviewing this document is also important. But right now, I need to ask you something. ”

“..?

“Do you know anything about Necromancers? ”

Necromancer. A wizard who specializes in ‘command', dealing with magically dead people.

Commandments were not widely studied disciplines, but they were profound and specialized in magic, and the wizards who practiced them were great experts.

This led to the creation of a creature called the Necromancer, a commander specialist wizard.

Due to the nature of dealing with the dead, the Necromancer was not welcome.

“Necromancer, very rare. ”

“Yes, I know. But if you're a mercenary commander with a lot of experience, maybe you know someone. ”

“There are some people I know... but the reason I'm looking for Necromancer is because

Ji? ”

“I came up with a good idea. ”

“Ideas?"

“Ah, the idea. Perhaps we should create an undead Chancellor. ”

“Secretary Undead? If you're a Musketeer... I think you mean a soldier with a gun... Does that mean you'll give a gun to the undead? ”

“That's right. Isn't there a chance?

Gilbert's eyes widen with the word of security.

It was definitely a surprising idea.

Guards are also responsible for bringing undead troops to the Maa.

I didn't think of it until I heard that I would provide it.

Gilbert glances at the escort and turns his gaze toward Cecilia and Lucas standing beside him.

Neither one seemed surprised at all.

“I see you've finished your discussion with your friends. ”

“That's right.”

“Undead Governor...

Gilbert thought for a moment.

“Obviously, a gun is an amazing weapon. Above all, it is much easier to learn than other weapons such as spears, knives, bows, etc.

Strong. If the undead can use a sword, a bow, maybe they can use a gun. ”

I've already heard this from Cecilia Lucas. The guard wanted a more detailed opinion.

“If you had to bet, which would you bet on? The undead general is possible, or not possible. ”

“If I have to bet... I'll bet it's possible. ”

“I knew it.”

The guard smiles and turns to his two colleagues. Cecilia and Lucas were asked the same question and answered the same question.

"That is, the possibility that this plan will succeed

The problem is, I don't know any Necromancers. ”

“Wouldn't it be better to ask those who are strong and powerful friends of yours, who are mercenaries like me? ”

“I'm sure there are many powerful and powerful friends of mine, but you are more reliable than them. ”

“Huff.”

Gilbert remembers a name he thought of for a moment. But I did start with a warning before I gave my name.

“I know a skilled Necromancer. Friends... It is the same.

Phosphorus would be appropriate. At least I'm not the enemy. I could introduce you. ”

“Who is this Necromancer? ”

“Let me ask you one question first. What do you care if he's crazy?”

There was no hatred or disgust on Gilbert's face that carried the "madman." In other words, it means that it is someone who is purely crazy, not having emotions.

“Depends on how crazy you are. ”

“How crazy... How vague to answer. I'm just saying, he's crazy. ”

“Let's change the question. I'll deal with him.

Can you do it? ”

“Let me tell you who he is. His name is Halas. Have you ever heard of it? ”

Security was the first name I'd ever heard. Or where I've heard or seen it, but I don't remember. Cecilia was the same.

Lucas, on the other hand, was the name I had heard before. No, it was a name that I knew well beyond that.

“Halas? The golden madness?" ”

“You know better. ”

The guard's gaze is on Lucas.

“Do you know him? ”

“No, I haven't. But if you're a shaman, you can't know your name. I can't believe he's a crazy Necromancer...

“Are you really crazy? ”

“Yes, literally a madman. He survived the Unified Continental War by taking sides with the Empire, or he would have subdued the Empire as soon as he was defeated. That notorious person......

“There are times when notoriety is just high for no reason. ”

“That's not true. He was alone in a fortress and a few villages against the Empire.

I heard they wiped out the dogs and massacred thousands of soldiers and their adopted children. In return, he kept the blasphemous Necromancer alive and untouched in my country. ”

Basically, it's hard to believe that it's a rumor right away. Especially in a world where telecommunications like this one have not evolved.

However, if there is such a thing as notoriety, there is usually a good reason.

Even if Lucas' words were 50% true, he did a great job on his own. At the same time, for any reason, large scale

If he committed the massacre alone, that alone would be enough to hear the lunatic's voice.

The guard asked Gilbert again.

“I intend to build an undead army of my own. For thoughtful mercenaries, the role of officer or special forces, and the role of shooting without thought, is to leave it to the Undead Governor. Of course, we need to think about a more concrete plan, but the basic concept is that. ”

“So?”

“Can you leave it to Lars, who will serve as the builder of that undead army?" ”

“You should be able to do enough. Permanently creating a certain number of undead and subordinating it to its owner should be enough. Again, the problem is that he is crazy. ”

“I'm used to dealing with lunatics and butchers. ”

“… I can't say anything for sure. Harlas, he's not only crazy, he's unpredictable. Honestly, I wouldn't go along with him if I were you. ”

“I understand what the commander said. But I want to somehow form an undead force. Not Halas, another Necroman.

Can I contact the precinct or call them here? ”

“No, he's the only Necromancer I know who is‘ skilled and not hostile. '”

“Well then, let me make contact with a man named Halas. ”

The guard has already made up his mind. Gilbert shakes his head, realizing that.

“I'm just a mercenary commander, so I don't have the authority to tell you what to do... but I work too much, don't I? ”

“Yes, I know I do quite a lot of work. ”

Of course, Gilbert was able to complete his security plan.

It was an objection, but security has already made its decision.

“Anyway, I'd like to contact him first. Can I leave that to you? I hide stories like the undead Chancellor. ”

“… Got it. ”

“Take good care of her. because if we succeed, we'll make an example out of it. ”

Gilbert shakes his head and leaves the office, feeling bored.

Cecilia, who had been watching the situation for a long time, said.

“This is not going to be an easy plan. ”

“I'm prepared. ”

“Are you sure you want to push this? ”

“Yes, there is no better way to mass-produce the loyal troops under my command... if I succeed. ”

The only thing that could be described as the current line of security was the commanding mercenary squad. As a result, the troops of the Red Crystal Tribe were also able to use it as a direct guard, depending on what they wrote.

Even if I gathered all the forces I could operate, I was greatly outnumbered. It was the same with the empire, as well as with the Allied forces.

The problem was that there was no way to massively enlarge the shortages.

In general, the most effective method to enlarge medical history is conscription. It is to force local residents, or completely force them to join forces and make them soldiers.

The conscription is not as easy as it sounds. Uh, it was not uncommon to force military bees, even countries, to cause various side effects.

Security guards in Africa were unable to run a basic military regiment, so they captured a young boy and went through a brainwashing curriculum to recruit him as a soldier.

C.

I didn't want to do such a thing, but I couldn't buy it. Even if you try to force a soldier to come back, you don't have enough control.

If you are not a conscripted soldier who forcibly recruits soldiers, recruiting soldiers for a fee is the next option. In a broad sense, mercenaries operated by security guards were also recruits.

This was also a great limit.

Cost to recruit now. and ongoing maintenance. In addition, if you recruit the ball individually, you can see it in the Alliance of the Anti-Imperial Alliance and Crimson Rose, etc.

Even the cold eyes that come out.

The undead could be an alternative if they wanted to increase their troops in the midst of no enlistment or recruitment.

Undead, an essentially non-living being, was easy to manufacture and maintain in the presence of excellent necromancers and was also useful for hiding devices.

The underground cave where the Red Crystal Tribe and the Weapons Factory are located has a lot of empty space.

The plan to use such a location to create undead troops, train guns and operate the ‘Undead General’ troops seemed realistic enough.

It was not just the opinion of the guard. Cecilia and Lucas did not disagree with what the security guard had to say.

‘It's possible. ’

‘Just like my sister said. It's possible, in theory. ’

Of course, it wasn't easy.

Above all, organizing soldiers to undead was a magical feat, but it was not recommended in Pangea.

In other words, it was horrifying.

It's the concept of bringing a dead body back to life and making it a soldier, instinctively disgusting.

Of course I did.

Because of this, even the ruthless empire has temporarily called for undead troops to attack the enemy, and did not work to form an undead force permanently.

I was going to protect what was not done by the Empire and not by the Allied forces.

‘I can't get enough time to think about it. ’

Of course, we can't ignore the turbulence completely. That's why I was going to do this as discreetly as possible.

Calling Harlas a lunatic reveals his true purpose.

in contact with God, a skilled wizard and will proceed in the form of using.

No one has yet seen the possibility of success.

The guard who gave Gilbert the job of contacting Harlas was at home in the weapons factory.

After the attack on the Empire, the Red Crystal tribe took heavy damage, the weapon production line was also heavily affected. For a while it was almost impossible to keep up with and weapons production.

Fortunately, at a time when production was low, we were able to transfer it to the weapons we had in stock.

C. In cooperation with the Allied Forces, the latest weapons production line has regained its former output. Not only the sheep, but the quality was no different from the past.

The escort, who confirmed that the weapon production line had returned to normal, turned their attention to weapons development and upgrading.

A revolver. Pump action shotgun.

Gatling has already done a great deal in action, but continues to improve for greater power.

Lastly, rocket guns and red death that still need a lot of improvement.

Surely there are still many weapons to be improved, improved, and developed. If you think so, you still have a long way to go.

However, the fact that the weapons of this weapons factory overwhelm the empire with fire has not changed unless you are cautious.

I heard the Empire has been busy analyzing and developing weapons with dwarves under their control in order to catch up with their new weapons.

But we couldn't succeed in time. Even if you master the art of producing weapons properly, it will be useless without gunpowder.

That's why security has a formula for making gunpowder.

Only a handful of colored gunpowder could be shared with a dwarf craftsman, leaving the rest as encrypted documents that only he and himself could recognize.

At this rate, the superiority of firepower will last for a long time. It was time to think of something more than firepower.

It reminds me of Aedyr, who met the Horses. It was the Undead Governor's Project.
