From pioneer lord to king

Chapter 198 Mandala【4K】

The old man walked among them, carefully feeling everything that happened at that time. What surprised him was that the knights were fighting with one enemy.

"Interesting little guy, he seems to have broken through the limit of his original strength in an instant, and reached the limit of the great knight's rank."

The old man came to "Lian", carefully watched the changes in his body every time he made a shot, and commented on it from time to time, obviously very interested.

"Blake? I haven't heard of this surname. Go back and check it out. He's an interesting young man." He shook his head, his body suddenly rose, and he came to the battlefield in the sky.

At this moment, "Meilan" was fighting the magician. The picture was so blurry and distorted that it was hard to see clearly, but with his rich experience, he still found some clues.

"Wei Wangjun, are you unable to hold back anymore?" The old man sighed, and with a wave of his wide sleeve robe, all the pictures disappeared.

Lightly tap the staff in the void, ripples appeared in the calm space, and then these ripples gathered together to form a vortex, forming a huge colored hole.

Once the old man stepped into it, the space returned to its original appearance, and no one knew where he was going.

Afterwards, many people rushed over to investigate, but none of them had such miraculous means. In the end, they had to settle it hastily, and it became an unsolved case...

Ryan was lying in the carriage, but his soul escaped into the consciousness space. Ryan in the state of soul was not muddled, but unusually sober.

Dragon Crystal is still slowly absorbing the purple mist in his mind, forming a precious and magical source liquid, which seems to be no different from usual.

But Ryan, who was in the state of soul, saw a different picture. Around the slowly rotating dragon crystal, there was a dark spot of light rotating counterclockwise around the dragon crystal, and another white spot of light surrounded it. Dragonglass do clockwise rotation.

Their breath vaguely made Ryan feel a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it.

He tried to use his soul power to feel the two light spots, but unexpectedly, they suddenly appeared. They burst into a dazzling light, and then got into the dragon crystal from left to right.

Ryan was shocked, and quickly checked the status of the dragon crystal, but the next scene made him a little dumbfounded. Two black and white light spots were suspended at the highest point of the dragon crystal, and they merged into a black and white half ball.

The moment the ball was formed, the rotation speed of the dragon crystal suddenly accelerated, and the speed at which it absorbed the purple mist also increased. Ryan roughly estimated that the speed was about three times the original speed.

The speed at which the source liquid is formed is directly proportional to the speed at which it absorbs the purple mist. Originally, without external force, Dragon Crystal could only form one drop of source liquid a day, but now it can form three drops.

This is definitely not a small improvement.

As Ryan's rank is getting higher and higher, he can clearly feel that the increase in the source liquid's cultivation speed is gradually weakening.

And this feeling became particularly obvious after he broke through to the great knight, and the effect almost dropped by nearly half, making it difficult for Ryan to maintain a high speed of cultivation.

Although he can absorb the magic power in the beast core or magic crystal to generate the source liquid, he can use the quantity to achieve a qualitative change.

However, both magic crystals and beast cores are very precious, and the production cost of alchemy cores is not high, but they cannot be absorbed. This is a point that makes Ryan incredible.

So Ryan made a change, using the magic crystal produced by the alchemy core in exchange for the beast core. At the beginning, he did collect a lot, but the number of times attracted the attention of those who cared, and then Ryan stopped it urgently.

As a result, this path was also broken, which caused Ryan to practice a lot slower recently, after all, he couldn't be too extravagant.

But now, the efficiency of absorption is several times faster, and Ryan can also speed up his practice.

"What are these two light spots and how are they formed? It would be great if there were more." Ryan thought greedily in his heart.

What he didn't know was that these two spots of light had existed for a long time, but he just discovered them now, and their formation came from the incarnation of the two gods in that battle. dreaming...

With the blessing of the source liquid, Ryan recovered quickly from his injuries, and in mid-January of the new year, he finally returned to Kanarling.

After returning to the castle, Ryan first took Amy to meet his mother Kailinman, and then he took the box that Gnar gave him and locked himself in the room.

This box has basically never left Ryan's sight since he took it, but he has never opened it once, he is hesitating.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, a large box nearly two meters long was placed across his lap. Ryan wiped the non-existent dust again and again. box.

The box was huge, but the contents inside were very simple. The topmost one was a simple longbow. Ryan's heart trembled. It was Eisen's matching bow.

He picked it up carefully, and touched every inch of the bowstring carefully from the beginning to the end, his movements were as gentle as if he was treating a fine piece of porcelain.

This bow, in Eisen's words, is his second life. Ryan has been with him for a few years, and let Ryan touch it once. It's a treasure.

And now...

Putting the bow aside with great care, his eyes turned to the two arrows in the corner of the box. The blood stained on them deeply hurt his heart.

He will never forget this kind of arrows with magic eyes. One of them took his father's life, and the other one took Eisen's life.

Suppressing his boundless anger, he put the two arrows in his pocket close to his heart, and he wanted to always remember these two blood debts!
The last item in the box is a letter written on animal skin paper:

Ray, by the time you read this letter, I may have gone to see your father.

Don't be sad, there will be such a day sooner or later, but my day came sooner.Boy, you are great, better than me, better than your father.

I know you have always wanted to know who your enemy is. I didn't tell you before because I was afraid that you would be too young and prone to impulsive things. Then I would never have the face to see your father again.

Now, I have to tell you that you are also qualified to know all this.

The man who killed your father is named Fetus Mandala. Speaking of which, I will tell you some good news. This bastard was shot through the heart with an arrow by me. Unfortunately, I was careless and was shot by his dying arrow. hit the nail on the head.

Revenge, I have already avenged you, I hope you don't blame me.

Although this bastard is dead, you must be careful of the Mandala family behind him, they are the most prestigious family of sharpshooters in the Kingdom of Andis.

People in this family like to kill famous archers. Your father's archery skills were very good, so he was attacked by this bastard during the battle.

Over the years, I have been practicing archery and improving my reputation, just to attract the attention of this bastard. Fortunately, he is here. Once he has his eyes on someone, he will not give up.

I was sure of this, so I took the initiative to stay in the North Wind Fortress, and he was finally killed by my own hands.

Your archery skills should have surpassed mine, I know you can, so you will probably become the target of their assassination, if you go to the northern border one day, you must be careful...

Let's talk about Amy, I asked Gnar to give Amy to you, I believe you can take good care of him.

This is also a last resort. When I was young, I once offended a big man. I have been famous all these years. He didn't dare to attack Gnar and the others, fearing that I would die.

But now, I am no longer able, so I have to think of a way out for them.

Let’s talk about inheritance. I don’t have much to leave to you in this life. I leave my belongings to Gnar, and I leave my matching bow to you. I remember you like it very much...

In the end... so be it.

live well...

This is the end of the letter. Ryan's vision has been blurred unconsciously by tears. Eisen is a lonely person. He has never said so many words to Ryan before, but he did not expect that now it has become a farewell.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

The door was knocked.

He put the things back into the box with great care, and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, he didn't want others to see his fragile side.

Standing up and opening the door, Kailinman's worried face came into view.

"Mother."

Ryan smiled reluctantly.

Kailinman walked into the room, closed the door, hugged Ryan in his arms and said, "I know everything, child, just cry if you want to cry, just cry out."

Ryan's eye sockets turned red instantly, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time burst out at this moment.At this moment, he is not the Viscount Ryan who came out of the battlefield, nor is he a great knight who fights with one enemy.

At this moment, he is just a child expressing his emotions silently in his mother's arms.

Kailinman patted him on the back lightly. At this moment, she was Ryan's only support...

Seven days later, Ryan couldn't hold back the crowd, held a grand banquet, and announced that he had become a Viscount of the Kingdom.

The scope of the banquet this time was very wide, not only the nobles in Linton County, but also the nobles who had formed friendships during the suppression of the rebellion were all within the scope of the invitation.

In the end, there were more than [-] nobles present, including five viscounts, and besides Chelsea, there was another Viscount Brandon.

This surprised Ryan. Although Viscount Brandon had already had an agreement with him on the sale of green sugar, they had never met.

This time, it was only a symbolic invitation, but I didn't expect the other party to come to the banquet in person to congratulate, which gave Ryan enough face.

After some operations, Ryan's reputation has expanded a lot again, and he has firmly sat on the second throne in Linton County, allowing more eyes to pay attention to this border territory...

In order to make himself a viscount worthy of the name, Ryan started a new round of strength improvement in the territory after holding the banquet.

This time, it is not to continue to recruit soldiers aggressively, but to increase some high-end combat power.

As far as the territory is concerned, besides Mei Lan, Ryan has the highest rank as a grand knight, which is also in line with his title of viscount.

But there is almost a fault below. Only Xiyue and Sterling are the high-ranking people, but one of them does not belong to the Karna collar, and the other does not care about world affairs.

As the backbone of the main force, Allen, Drey, and Hans are all intermediate knights, and Calvin, Coron, Levi's and others are only junior knights. Such strength is too weak for a Viscounty.

So he used his meritorious service to exchange for a batch of cultivation resources and treasures to assist breakthroughs, just to change this situation.

The treasures that assist breakthroughs are only valid for ranks below the high level, and there are only ten copies, so Ryan chose ten people with relatively solid foundations, and strived to maximize the effect of these treasures.

After receiving the treasures, everyone chose to retreat to break through their own bottlenecks after receiving a batch of cultivation resources.

In the end, Alan and De Lai, who had solid foundations, successfully broke through the high-level knights.

And Hans has only broken through to the middle-level knight for two years, and his foundation is far less solid than the above two, which led to the failure of this breakthrough, but this also accelerated the progress of his cultivation base, and the breakthrough should not be too far away.

Both Calvin and Coron were just a step away from breaking through to intermediate knights after using the treasure.To Ryan's surprise, Levi's, who had only broken through as a junior knight for two years, also successfully broke through to an intermediate knight. No wonder Sterling chose him as his disciple, his aptitude is really good.

There were also four treasures distributed to four knights with relatively deep foundations in the army. As a result, only two of them successfully broke through to intermediate knights.

One of them is Mias, who was born in a down-and-out nobleman, and the other is called Shia, who is the only female knight in Karnaland, who was born as a wandering knight.

After they broke through the middle-level knights, Ryan did not treat them badly, and transferred them to two recruit battalions as commanders, responsible for assisting Allen in training recruits.

After they broke through, they greatly enriched the extraordinary power under Ryan's command, and made the Viscount Ryan speak more confidently, but it was still far behind Cheers.

Ryan has no good way to do this, he can only send the resources to see how his subordinates can perform themselves.

While cultivating the original team, Ryan has never given up on finding newcomers, but it takes time for newcomers to grow, so the recruitment of superhumans is the only way. Mias, Shia and others are all dug out in this way.

Talent is now what Ryan most desires...

In late February, Ryan came to the construction site of the new city. This city is located on a flat wasteland. There were almost no people here before, but now, thousands of people are sweating here.

Ryan felt that this was not enough, so he was planning to negotiate with other nobles and spend money to recruit a group of farmers or slaves to speed up the construction.

From the map, the location of this city just forms a triangle with Dorman City and Chelte City, and in the middle of this triangle, it includes the eight small towns under the jurisdiction of Dorman City and the city of Chelte. Four small towns.
