The Wizard: London From My Backyard

Chapter 117 Cupid's Power and Party Surprise
The Hammer of War breath method upgraded to the fifth level not only brought Ricardo new supporting combat skills, but also gave a new combat skill special effect:

Oscillating airflow.

The effect of this special effect is much more violent than the literal meaning.

Because among the supporting combat skills, Ricardo recognized that some combat skills were similar to the effects of the chaotic cloak and hammer method in the previous film and television.

Combat skills with the effect of the Wind Hammer Technique, combined with the special effects of the turbulent airflow, one can imagine how much chaos it can cause on the battlefield.

All three breathing methods have been promoted to the fifth level, and the mental strength is only a little short of 40 points.

Ricardo first asked the castle and the avatar to take in the villains temporarily, and the avatar was transferred to Fanhua Manor for standby. After the mental power has completely broken through the threshold of the sixth-order top wizard apprentice in the past few days, if there is a bonus, he will maliciously extract it and improve it. Six steps of breathing.

As the carriage drove, Teresa rode beside her.

When Ricardo opened the car window, he felt Teresa's aura seemed a little different from yesterday.

"Teresa, you seem...something different?"

Ricardo remembered that Lorient brought over the secret medicine of the witcher knight's breathing method yesterday, and Ricardo later handed over the secret medicine to Teresa to let her practice it as soon as possible.

"Yes, my lord... I have... advanced to the first rank of Demon Hunter Knight..."

Teresa seemed a little embarrassed, and said happily and a little embarrassedly.

Compared with the knight talent reflected in this promotion speed, her wizard qualifications are just...

"Advanced in one night?"

Ricardo was astonished.

Although he ignored the difficulty of the breathing method with his golden finger, the large amount of information he obtained when leveling up also made him aware of the difficulties of advanced demon hunter knights.

His subordinates Ollie and O'Neill may have worked for the Demon Hunter Knight for many, many years before they could exchange for this breathing method, but if they really need to follow up with practice, Ricardo does not think that they will be able to practice it within a few dozen days. order.

"Is there...the reason why you dreamed about Celia?" Ricardo didn't think Teresa's talent could be so high. The only thing he could think of related to quick promotion... was only... the purple flower card.

"It seems to be... I dreamed of Celia again at night, Celia with angel wings... Celia was in the dream... It seemed that she wanted to share my fate with me, and then the little bow and arrow with love in her hand It emits white light..."

"Then when I practiced in the morning, I found that I was promoted easily..."

Teresa thought about it carefully, and found that it was indeed Celia's problem in the dream, as Ricardo said.

"Is it Celia's power?"

she asked.

Ricardo recalls Teresa's two dream descriptions.

Celia's appearance in the dream doesn't look like the idiot in the purple flower card, but rather... Cupid?

Could it be that Celia has two cards?The power of the Cupid card is related to love, and her love for her relatives also has the same effect?

Ricardo guessed in his heart.

"It should be. Keep this matter a secret. Celia's situation is too special. It cannot be disclosed."

Ricardo warned Teresa, then thought about it and said again.

"Actually, if you want to walk the path of a wizard, you can use this power to upgrade your inscription of tricks. What is your first inscription of tricks going to be inscribed?"

"...a mage's hand, or a scroll of scribe..."

Teresa replied.

"It's all good. A wizard's apprentice is not like a knight's path. You need to start from a first-level knight attendant and a second-level apprentice knight. A wizard's apprentice's first-level scroll apprentice, and second-level juggling and magic apprentice are just comfort places for those who are not talented. Level. As long as you successfully engraved the first inscription, and then matched with enough knowledge, you are a third-level junior wizard apprentice."

Ricardo thought about it, and felt that if relying on the complete purple flower card, it could really help people to engrave inscriptions quickly... then the growth speed of the owner of the purple flower card would be... too invincible.

He only has half a knight card, although it is only effective if it is swallowed by the golden finger to form a flower language, but it is enough to predict the power of a complete purple flower card.

...

In a forest at the foot of the Panxue Mountains.

The knight captain under Viscount Frostwind was riding on a horse, looking at the man in black standing on the branch of a big tree.

"After one day and one night, the situation is different from what we expected."

"Although Windwolf Town has blocked the news, we have confirmed from multiple dimensions that the Ice Lake Territory relied on the power of its own territory to form a knight group to destroy the Windwolf Territory, and... the Frostwind Iron Guard team... "

"...And according to the descriptions of our captured townspeople, there is an Ice Lake leader who has at least a few high-level knights and above, and there is also a team of knights who are suspected of also possessing enchanted armor... Generally speaking, the Ice Lake leader is very powerful, very powerful! "

The knight commander said in a deep voice.

"So, what do you want to say to me, the scout instructor of the Pansen County Thieves Guild? I'm just a scout. The Thieves Guild can't do anything. Haven't you seen that all the guilds in Shagang County have been banned..."

The man in black made a middle-aged voice.

"Yesterday, I asked your guild affiliated brotherhood 'Night Crow Society' to arrange the assassination as soon as possible, but from what I have seen so far, the people sent by the Night Crow Society...may not be enough, although they even let several people equipped with the tomb of Panxue Mountain The killer who unearthed the cursed item is dispatched, but..."

The knight commander obviously felt that something was wrong.

"Don't be too anxious. For these killers, as long as they are not real wizards, top-level wizard apprentices, or legendary knights above the seventh rank. Under the circumstances of the arrangement, in the worst case, they can easily die with the great knight Things. There are not many great knights who were killed in their sleep... let alone a middle-level wizard apprentice..."

"In addition, among the elite killers that Night Crow will dispatch this time, there is Lord Viscount's most outstanding illegitimate son 'Morrowind'."

The words of the man in black still did not reassure the commander of the knight. The commander of the knight thought for a while before continuing:
"After all, although you are injured, you are a real great knight. You should join in this assassination. The subordinates of your thieves' guild will follow me first. I will lead them to complete the investigation behind Windwolf Town for the time being."

"I'm a scout from the Thieves Guild, not a killer from the Night Crows!"

"You think I don't know the difference between a scout and a killer? Pansen County Night Crow Society and Thieves Guild also wear a pair of pants!"

"Okay, I have to pay more."

"……Can."

"In addition, I will wait for the opportunity to act. Their gathering will last at least a week, as early as today, later..."

"As soon as possible! Cut the mess with a sharp knife!"

"Then... more money!"

...

at the same time.

In the shadow of a certain forest outside Xuelu Village, a conversation and transaction also took place.

"Idam, take me in, my friend who is also an illegitimate child. I beg you. Our father, Viscount Frostwind and Baron Snowwind are as close as brothers, and we should be like this..."

"Morrowind! Don't think that I don't know what you do. You are famous for being the best illegitimate child because...! You still use a code name all the time, how can I invite someone who uses a code name! And you still mocked me back then Follow Teresa!"

"Idam, what happened to me this time is related to the members of the Ice Lake family that Teresa was assigned to. Believe me, this is good for you, Teresa is still clean now... as long as I succeed, you still have a chance ...don't force me to interfere with you with mystical items..."

After the two quarreled for a while, they finally calmed down.

...

dusk.

Panxue Forest Manor.

The Jinlu family, which held the banquet, purchased a batch of gas lamps from the county city extravagantly, and placed them in the hall of the main building next to the banquet lawn and in the corridor outside the hall, and planned to use them later.

On the lawn of the venue, the long table has been covered with white tablecloths and tableware, and the servants of the manor have served barbecue, roast goose, cheese, fruit, cake and wine.

This family reunion, which may last for a week or even half a month, is such a streamlined arrangement that the expenses are not small.

This also shows that the two branches of the Jinlu family have great atmosphere or financial resources in Pansen County.

On the stage beside the lawn, musicians are beginning to play melodious music.

The nobles of the two families and the invited guests dressed up, got off the carriages at the gate of the manor, or walked out of the building where the manor stayed, and walked to the lawn or the banquet hall of the main building.

Ricardo also got off the carriage and joined the crowd at the banquet.

He hadn't seen such a scene in more than ten years.

Today is Thursday according to the modern calendar. He returned from the Wizarding Continent on Thursday evening two weeks ago, and now fourteen days have passed.

In the past two weeks and fourteen days, many things have changed, making it much easier for Ricardo, who might have participated in the party bitterly.

He began to enjoy the atmosphere of family gatherings.

"Victor, you've grown up so much. You were just born when I left..."

"Hi, Aunt Marvian!"

"Hey...kids, candies for you...don't worry...they're all..."

"... "

Ricardo first walked in the group of relatives and friends of the Binghu family. These people lived in the knight manor in the territory, the jazz villa in the country, the county manor, or served as the land officer and attendant for the nobles such as the Golden Deer family, or in the county. Served in government agencies, port patrol cavalry regiment and other agencies.

Many elders of the Binghu family expressed goodwill towards Ricardo, or perhaps also mixed with a little awe and flattery.

Although the news of the demise of the Wind Wolf Leader was still blocked for the past few days, Ricardo's extermination of the bandit group was the direct cause of this gathering.

Moreover, the main road from Binghu Town to Panxue Forest Manor has been repaired, and the traffic is several times faster than before. This intuitive change, coupled with the identity of the wizard apprentice and the supporting military exploits, all make people feel respected.

As for the Jinlu family, only a small number of family members who worked or dealt with the Binghu collar had heard some rumors. Most of them only respected Ricardo out of awe of the wizard apprentices, and many people still wanted to know who Ricardo was.

"Lord Andrew is here! He has come in and sat down to rest. He has just recovered from his illness and cannot stand for long."

Suddenly someone said.

Many people turned their attention to the hall. Lady Golden Deer couldn't come today because of something, and she didn't invite other big families. The two country "big" lords present were Lord Ice Lake and Lord Golden Deer.

After being agitated for a while, many people returned to the state just now.

Ricardo went around in a circle, greeted and talked with many familiar relatives and friends in his memory.

He came to the corner of the corridor and saw not far away, Lord Golden Deer was standing with Teresa in knight dress.

The father and daughter seemed to be in conflict, both of them were unhappy, Teresa even wanted to bow her head and leave in the end.

Ricardo walked over.

"My lord!"

he greeted.

"Hello! Ricardo... Your Excellency the Apprentice Wizard!"

Lord Golden Deer hesitated about what title to use. He arranged Teresa and Celia to Ricardo's side a month ago because of Andrew's serious illness and Ricardo's status as an intermediate wizard apprentice.

But in the past ten days, he learned that Ricardo was injured, and he had just witnessed Andrew recovering from a serious illness...

He hasn't had time to learn more about it at the banquet in the future. The matter of Ricardo's suppression of the bandits a few days ago and the demise of the Wind Wolf collar are still under blockade. At this time, Ricardo's suppression of the bandits proved that he has quite a leadership ability and is a little pleasantly surprised...

...The rest, for the Lord Golden Deer, can be described as a fiasco in investment... Celia even died on the way.

"I just saw that His Excellency Lord Andrew...is he recovered from his illness?"

Lord Golden Deer seemed to still have some illusions about Ricardo inheriting Lord Binghu, so he asked Ricardo out of his wits.

Although there are more than ten daughters in this generation of the Jinlu family, Teresa is the best among them...

"Father!"

When Teresa read the letter last time, she could feel her father's disappointment, and now she understood what Lord Golden Deer was implying.

Knowing everything, she obviously understood that it was very inappropriate for her father to say this in front of Ricardo... It could even be said that his attitude was out of character.

Of course Ricardo could understand the meaning of the other party.

It is true that he will not inherit the lordship, nor does he have a marriage contract with Teresa...

But he was able to train Teresa to be a wizard apprentice, and he could control a land much larger than that of a lord... And all of this is just scraps in front of the personality he may achieve in the future...

"Yes, my brother Andrew has taken the healing potion from the Wizarding Continent and recovered well."

He said lightly.

Lord Golden Deer felt disappointed when he heard this, he let out an 'oh', and the sense of despair on his face became stronger.

"Master Ricardo!"

At this moment, a timid female voice sounded.

Ricardo turned his head and saw Ollie, who was wearing a witcher knight dress, just got off the carriage and was walking towards this side.

As Ricardo's subordinate in the Demon Hunter Knight, Ollie is considered one of her own.

Ricardo has many official and private affairs mixed up, and he already has the status of a lord, some witcher knights are destined to serve his family a lot in the future.

For this reason, Ricardo also invited Ollie to this gathering, and asked her to get acquainted with her family members first.
"This is…?"

Lord Golden Deer asked Teresa.

"Master Ricardo is now the lieutenant colonel of the empire and the vice-captain of the Demon Hunter Knights. This Ms. Ollie assists Lord Ricardo in managing some of the Demon Hunter Knights..."

Teresa explained to her father in a low voice, her words were very strict, but she also hinted that Ricardo could control some of the witcher knights.

The witcher knight? !
There are also a small number of witcher knights in Pansen County, and Lord Golden Deer naturally understands what this is.

He also understands what it means to be able to control part of the demon hunter knights. The imperial power needs the power of the lord to help manage the country. Conversely, the lord can also use the power of the imperial power to devour the power for his own use.

Ricardo already has a status in the official extraordinary organization, and has an extraordinary knight force...

...he's already a figure in Shacon County...Theresa...that's okay...

Hearing this, the Lord Golden Deer felt much better after being in a low mood.

"Lord Golden Deer!"

Ollie saluted Ricardo and Lord Golden Deer respectfully.
