Triple Yellow Oze 24093;
I was soon able to hear from Bellov about his strategy and operations.
At the end of three years since Moscow was taken by Ivan IV, Bellov was able to move his troops with the help of King Pyodor, son of Ivan IV. It was like bringing talents, knights, magicians, and clergy from all over the place. The total number of skilled people collected seemed to be more than 100, one by one.
'Knights are like Muslims.'
Knights are also projections that can use Qi. The only difference from the Muslims is that they actively use strong metal armor and shields. However, unlike the Muslims, the profound skills such as my weighted water method were not very good.
Bellov said.
"I once tried to take back Moscow by dispatching a simple army. But the 30,000 troops that left then were wiped out. Moscow can never be taken down by numbers, so everyone agrees that it requires the power of a brilliant psychic or shaman."
"That's a long story. What's the point?"
"Even if there are 100 talented people, it's not easy to get through Ivan IV. Because I don't have the ability to resist the power of myth. So we came up with just one trick."
"What is it?"
Bellov sighs for a moment, then blinks.
"The power of the dragon."
"......!!"
"We've airlifted the bodies of dragons from the summit of Romania. And we will bring the dragon back to life and deal with Ivan IV."
Dragon!
I was surprised by Miho, who was listening next to me as well. The dragon was the apex of the transfer, with the force to process. He was so noble that he did not come down from heaven well, and his stamina was known to overthrow heaven and earth. Of course, I don't know if the dragons of the east and the dragons of the west are the same, but if what Bellov is saying is true, it was great.
I calmed down and asked Bellov.
"A corpse? How do you resurrect a dead dragon?"
"I pronounced him dead, but he's not dead. It looks like he's been trapped for centuries because of the ice's drinking technique. If you can break the spell, the dragon will awaken again."
"Is there a way to break it?"
I asked him in succession, and Bellov answered silently for a moment.
"That's the biggest problem. I don't know who cast it, but I don't see how to figure it out because the technique of sealing ice is a very high technique. That's why I've been airborne of the Dragon Corpse and I'm still trying to figure out how to do it."
"Hmm…"
I thought about it and told Bellov.
"Let's see. Maybe we can help."
"Sure."
I could see why Bellov was whispering such secrets to strangers like us. Until now, I have only been rolling my feet because I have no way to revive the dragon, so I have hoped for a mysterious traveler from Myeong Dynasty. Me and Miho follow Velov through the barracks and head for a remote cave.
As you go inside the dark cave, a white ice gushes out. And I could see a giant reptile, about 20 feet tall, trapped inside an ice wall.
"......!!"
Is this the Dragon?
It is a huge and powerful shape. I also feel the terrifying power!
The giant wings seemed to fly the perforations freely when struck, and had the face of a ferocious reptile, powerful forefoot and two legs. My whole body felt trembling because I had never seen anything so massive in my life except magic. I never imagined what it would be like to fight a man like this.
However, Miho, who was observing the dragon, muttered.
"This is different from the dragon I saw."
"What are you talking about, Miho?"
Miho just shakes his head. And he said,
"Ouch. Let's talk for a minute."
"Hmmm... I see."
I sought understanding from Bellov, and I went with Miho to an unpopular place and used the flashlight. And the place we emerged from was the secret Library of the Exodus in the basement of the Kremlin. It's because Ivan the Fourth couldn't touch it, so there's no place in the world safer than here.
Miho cautiously said.
"Unlike the dragons of the east, it feels a very sinister energy. I don't know about strength, but it's a disaster. Should I wake him up?"
"What are you talking about? What do you mean, different from dragons?"
"All the dragons she saw in the heavenly realm had such powerful divine power, and they were all well-regarded in order. And since there's nothing to come out of the ground, there's no need to be sealed up like that."
I realized the meaning of Miho's words and frowned.
"Does this mean that they were sealed because they were evil?"
"Yes. Perhaps a powerful sorcerer realized the evil of the dragon and sealed his life."
"Hmm."
"The dragons of the east and their cousins, but the dragons of the west will never be good to humans. But I don't think a monk named Velov has the power to control the dragon. It is true that you are powerful."
"......"
I was amazed.
Ivan IV, who needs to be defeated, is a mythical and spiritual creature, but the Western dragon he has brought down as his adversary is cruel and vicious! The choice of Bellov or the Orthodox Church is far wrong. When I thought about it, Miho said.
"Wouldn't it be better not to get involved with them anymore? You don't have to get involved in a fight that doesn't have a chance."
"Miho, you're right. I wanted to learn their firearms, their magic, their knights' combat skills, but I couldn't help it..."
I said with a blurred tail.
"But something's too bad to go on like this. Is there anything else I can get you?"
"I don't know. It's too uncertain what you can get."
Miho wants to cut off his hand with Bellov's group as soon as possible. I had a hunch the next time I visited Belloq that I needed to be vigilant, so I didn't want to make this choice. However, I nodded my head as I thought that if I pushed my argument no longer, my relationship with Miho would be wrong.
"Good. Let's find something useful in this library and get back to the rumble." "
Together with Miho, I picked up some books, maps, etc. that could be interpreted in the library and put them in my collar. Then he used a flashlight to go back to a promising rumble.
Pa!
When we returned to the rumble, it was too late at night. I didn't see him around the house, but I think he went out to work. I sat in the Great Hall with Miho and waited for a long time, and hopelessness returned.
He was pleased to see us.
"Oh, it's been too long!! How have you been?"
"I see you've been working hard."
"Haha. You can't play when there's a smoke spill."
I was eager to answer, but I was genuinely amazed at his accomplishments. His alcoholic strength was very high and he had only been separated for a few months because he realized he was already a top class. At this rate of development, the Moon Gate Tribe leaders in Moorim would be surprised to see their eyes protrude.
"What happened in the meantime?"
"Hmmm... we..."
I went to the florist and told him about my appearance, what I had learned by going to the North Sea ice palace and hearing about the Great Plains ebook, meeting a wise man at the embassy in Astana on my way to Moscow, the confrontation between Ivan IV and Bellov, the dragon trapped in the ice, and so on.
After listening carefully, he seemed to be silent and lost in thought. I asked him carefully.
"This is how you see me, and you recognize me as a centurion."
"It's because Miho is next to me. And for another reason, I thought you'd be plasticizing because you're fluent in medicine."
I laughed at the prospect.
"Of course, I never thought I'd be such a pretty boy."
"Ugh... Don't tease me."
I thought I said something I shouldn't have. It was because the telescopes were not a crowded source of life, so when Wilmy was born, he was teased like a normal person. I did not know that I was worse than ordinary people to be. When I was wearing the giant statue, Depression said,
"To sum up, you focused on gathering information rather than going straight to the Arctic. Well done."
"Thank you."
"I've thought about it."
Talked to me like that.
"A hundred centuries old, do you want Bellov to win the battle with Ivan IV?"
"I'm not sure. Honestly, I have no empathy because it's a battle between too vivid western colored people. I only wanted to get what I could, but it was too risky, so I came to hear from you."
Manganese smiles and says.
"The reason you feel that way is because you care about the gun."
"Gun?"
"The reason I was so impressed by the power of guns was because I was curious to know more about guns and combat equipment handled by Westerners. because of the psychology of trying to make their strengths your strengths."
"Hmm... Maybe..."
I thought the scourge was right. I felt that this might be of great benefit to me in the future, as I felt the potential value in the demonstration of the North Sea Ice Bow gun. That's why I pretended to help Velov, so I could learn firearms and related war skills.
Manhwang said, plummeting his gaze.
"For the record, there are no guns in the Mysterious Empire. Of course I do."
"Huh? Really?"
"Do you know what the biggest constraint lies in the Myeong Empire? It is a strict ban on firearms. It wasn't because the Muslims thought it was dangerous to use ballistics or cannons, but because they were afraid to distribute firearms."
"......!!"
"The Great People's Empire is a powerful nation in the world. That's why it's not well known to the civilians, but Western kings and Middle Eastern lords are also exchanging tribute with the People's Empire. When I was at the Planetarium, there was, of course, a state-of-the-art firearm among the tributes the Messengers handed me."
I accepted the plea. Otherwise, there is no way that Madosa's relic, such as the golden boil, can come from far away to the Central Plain. In addition, the envoys had to be as prominent in Myeong Dynasty as possible, so it was also possible to show the latest firearms and try to please them.
The hammer grins bitterly.
"The former Nam Empire knew the power of firearms, but did not train them well. I still have 20,000 guns in the Imperial Armory, but they're not deployed. Do you know why?"
"Why is that?"
"Because there are no enemies."
What are you talking about?
When I stared at him, he explained.
"Holding a gun and trying to raise your strength is what you get when you defeat an enemy. However, there are hardly any powerful nations around the Great People's Empire to call enemies. It will still take half a century for the Arasa Empire to reach nearby, the grasslands have fallen completely, and even the countries of the south or east are only looking at the Ming Dynasty. In a situation like this, we didn't need to develop firearms to add to the chaos inside."
I cried out in a panic.
"There's no such thing. Even at this moment, the West must be developing weapons technology…"
"Neutralization is a well. Since we've acquired a powerful and fertile territory, if we don't have to fight the outside world anymore, we just need to keep the doors locked and enjoy peace. That is the limit of empires in neutralization as well as the Great Nam Empire."
Desperately, he said.
"Of course, if you go on like you predicted, there may be a significant difference that will not be compared to the West in about 200 years. But who cares so much about the future?"
"......"
The eyes of the telescopes that spoke to me became sharp.
"But things are different now. The Emperor is somewhat interested in burning gunpowder and various firearms and is investing heavily in cutting-edge literature. It's a completely different perspective from your predecessor."
"Does this mean you can train a gunman in the future?"
"It's a possibility. Technology doesn't seem to be advancing that easily, so it looks like it's still building term industries and engineers."
I thought about it for a while and said,
"Is that the kind of information you were able to get this time because you were ahead of Huanglongbing and involved in politics?"
"Yes. The latest weapons and cannons of the Northern Dragons, which are the direct descendants of General Hwang Yeon, are also the result of such efforts. Hwang Yeon is the easiest person in the military to read about government trends."
The scourge grins.
"Haha, I can't believe it. Now that you're talking to me, how can you be so ignorant? You must be quite resourceful."
I had to make a bitter smile.
After fourteen deaths, desperately gaining wisdom, power, and experience, it's an insult that we can finally communicate with hope. I don't have to be satisfied here, I have to grow further. I turned my face back and told the network.
"What do you suggest we do? By the way, the books and maps are here."
"Hmm."
"This book is from the Ancient Library of the Izoku, so it should help."
I pointed my finger at the book and map I pulled out of the wooden chest. There was already a flame floating around like a light that I had summoned with the flamethrower, so there was no problem checking the shape. He picks up the book, looks at it one by one, and says,
"This is an ancient rune script. The ancient Cyrillic alphabet."
"Rune... what is it? What's that?"
"We just call them Westerners in unison, but their families are quite divided. By the way, this rune is a letter from the New Testament that the One Eyed God obtained after his own suffering, and it is a letter from a time similar to the scapula."
"......"
I don't know what you're talking about, so I'm going to stay put.
As I stand still, telemetry follows the book and looks at the map. He glances at you and says,
"I can't use this map like this."
"You can't use it?"
"This map was made in ancient times, so it doesn't seem to reflect the tectonic shift. I need to learn the correct reading technique and redraw it. Of course, I hope it's in the book you brought me."
"If I draw a map again, can I go to the North Pole?"
He looks at the map in reverse and says,
"If I can find and apply the reading, I can make you a new map within seven days."
"Great!"
He looks at Miho beside him and says,
"Miho. I have a question for you."
"What is it?"
"The dragon trapped in the ice is a sinister creature, do you think it will be the servant of the foreigners?"
"Hmmm... I don't think so, but I think he's been cruel while he stayed on the ground without ascension."
At that moment, I said to Miho, "Like you? 'I almost made fun of it, but I realized it wasn't right for the situation and quit. Thinking about Miho's answer, he told me.
"Hundred. Stay here for a while. We need to examine the map to determine whether or not it's complete and decide what to do next."
