The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Chapter 256: Beyond Authority (Two chapters in one)

But soon, Ryan suddenly remembered that he had not checked the system prompts.

Call up the system and take a look:
[You have experienced a battle, and the weapon master (legendary) experience value +3711]

(Note: The above skills and experience have enjoyed a 30% increase in the exclusive talent 'Elementary Extraordinary Comprehension'.)
[Congratulations, you defeated a strong enemy and gained 7 gold skill point! 】

[Congratulations, your Weapon Master (Legendary) career level has been improved! 】

Ryan discovered that the Weapon Master (Legend) profession level had been upgraded to level 8 (612/7000), which also allowed him to gain one attribute point and one skill point again.

However, Ryan also discovered that the experience points required for level 8 were relatively high. In a short period of time, it would be difficult to raise the professional level of Weapon Master (Legend).

Scroll to the Properties page.

"Basically, except for the Beast Priest (Legendary), who can be upgraded in a relatively short period of time, it is quite difficult to upgrade other professions."

"It seems that the subsequent job transfer matters need to be included in the plan immediately."

"There is basically no problem with changing my job to a wizard. As for the follow-up of Breaking Bad and the follow-up of Armorsmith,

Ryan looked thoughtful, but soon he looked relieved, as if he had thought of something key.

The speed of an airship is not very fast, but its advantage is that it can fly directly to its destination without having to detour or be affected by the terrain.

So, after only a few hours of sailing, the huge white city of Münster built on the mountain came into the eyes of the passengers on the airship, and the blue Still Lake was right below the airship.

The airship's berth is right next to the Griffin Platform at the top of the mountain.

As soon as Ryan and Alyosha got off the airship, they saw the familiar middle-aged man with a mustache waiting on the side.

At this moment, Javier naturally saw his beloved daughter and smiled, no longer looking worried as before.

"Father!" Alyosha looked surprised and ran quickly towards Javier.

Ryan watched the scene with a smile and did not go forward to disturb.

After a while, after a brief greeting between father and daughter, Javier stepped forward and said apologetically:
"Baron Ryan, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"I have asked the butler to prepare a dinner. Baron Ryan, please come and enjoy it."

"Baron Ryan, please do us the honor of visiting us," Alyosha sincerely invited.

"This." Ryan looked hesitant.

Ryan wanted to go to the Sword Bearer Division Mission Hall immediately, but he looked at the sky and saw that it was almost evening. He also thought about the subsequent career of Breaking Bad, and he might have to trouble Alyosha, a formal researcher of the Royal Pharmacists Association.
So, Ryan thought about it, nodded, and said, "Well, sorry to bother you, Mr. Special Envoy, Miss Alyosha."

"However, I may need to go back and settle my pet first." Ryan pointed to the tall black horse and greyhound war dog beside him.

"Of course, Baron Ryan, see you in the evening." Javier smiled.

"Baron Ryan, see you that evening." Alyosha also said with a smile.

"."

Since the Griffin Platform was not far from Jenny's newly purchased villa, Ryan quickly arrived at the new villa near the Munster Swordsman branch.

"Sir Ryan, you're back so soon?" Jenny was delighted to see Ryan coming back. She ran over with her white dress in her hands.

Ryan came back much faster than she expected.

In the past two days, all kinds of gossip from Meister's side have been flying around, making her very worried.

"Jenny, maybe we should move to another house?" After getting off the horse, Ryan looked at the new villa and said with a smile.

Although this villa was newly purchased, it was still purchased for the purpose of the two women living in it, plus Ryan occasionally coming back to stay for a short time. Therefore, once his family and Jennifer come over, it is obviously not enough to accommodate them.

What's more, there are some servants accompanying them who need to be settled.

"Ah? Do you mean mother and the others will be here soon?" Jenny reacted quickly and understood what Ryan meant immediately.

"Yes, they are already on their way and are expected to arrive in Munster the day after tomorrow. So, you and Agatha may have to work hard in the next two days to find a mansion that is big enough."

"Great! Lord Ryan, I will get started on it right away." Jenny looked delighted.

Unexpectedly, the problem she had been worried about had been solved by Lord Ryan without her noticing.

"By the way, I'll serve your dinner right away."

"Jenny, no need to make any arrangements. I have to attend a dinner party tonight." Ryan waved his hand.

Javier's residence in the noble district of Münster.

The banquet hall was decorated magnificently. Dozens of mountain-shaped candles illuminated the entire hall. The gilded ornaments on the surrounding walls looked even more magnificent under the candlelight.

This was once the residence of an earl, but now it serves as the temporary residence of Javier, the special envoy of the Imperial Investiture Committee, in Münster.

On the long dining table in the banquet hall, various rare delicacies, large bowls of fruits and flowers have been carefully placed.

Although there were only Javier, Alyosha and Ryan dining at the restaurant, the dishes were extremely sumptuous.

Whether it's wild boar liver pie, wetland crocodile soup, or juicy bighorn sheep chops, they are all rare and ferocious beast meat delicacies, and the cooking method is sophisticated, which immediately made Ryan's appetite grow.

"Baron Ryan, thank you very much for risking your life to rescue Alyosha. Please allow me to express my respect to you." Javier smiled, raised his glass to Ryan, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

On the carriage returning with Alyosha, Javier realized how much risk Ryan had taken to successfully rescue her.

The situation was fraught with danger. If it weren't for Ryan, even an entire elite team from the Empire's special department might not be able to complete the rescue mission.

This made Javier feel that he had chosen the right person on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was amazed at Rennes' rapidly growing strength.

"Your Excellency the Special Envoy, you are too polite." Ryan also raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.

"Baron Ryan, thank you for saving me this time. I am deeply impressed by your outstanding strength." Alyosha raised his glass with a smile.

"Thank you, Miss Alyosha. By the way, I heard from the special envoy that you are now a senior pharmacist at the Royal Pharmacist? What an amazing talent." Ryan said with a smile, not stingy with praise.

"Thank you, Lord Ryan. That's too much praise from my father. Compared to Baron Ryan's talent on the path of knighthood, mine is nothing."

"By the way, Lord Ryan, if you have any needs in potion-making, perhaps I can be of some help." Alyosha seemed to have thought of something and took the initiative to speak.

"That's great! The Great Knight's training does require a lot of potions."

"Besides, Miss Alyosha, I am actually very interested in potion making. Unfortunately, I don't have many pharmacist friends."

"Hmm? Lord Ryan, do you also research on potion making?" Alyosha's beautiful eyes lit up and he looked at Ryan in surprise.

To be honest, she didn't quite believe it.

Because even if the man in front of him has great talent as a knight, in order to reach his current level of strength, Alyosha believes that he must practice hard every day and study various extraordinary combat skills. How could he have the time and energy to take care of pharmacy?
"Mr. Ryan, have you made any potions recently?" After thinking for a while, Alyosha looked at Ryan with his beautiful eyes and asked a question indirectly.

This question made Ryan a little unsure of how to answer it.

In fact, he had not made many potions himself.

Naturally, the mutation growth potion cannot be revealed.

The rest is poison.
However, some of the "Maxwell's Secret Scroll of Rare Poisons" are not suitable for discussion, such as the gas-type poison - lavender hallucinogen, which is more suitable as a unique secret technique.
So, Ryan thought about it and said with reservation:
"Last time, I used a certain amount of nocturnal spider venom sacs mixed with whiptail scorpion venom to create a powerful paralysis poison that is 20% to 30% more potent than ordinary paralysis poisons. The key point is..."

Ok?
Hear what Ryan said.

The banquet hall suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop!
Alyosha's beautiful eyes widened as she looked at Ryan as if he had seen a ghost.

She wondered if she was hallucinating.

But Alyosha knew that the formula and pharmaceutical details were so clear, and the Lord Ryan in front of him was at least at the level of a junior, no, even a mid-level pharmacist.

At this moment, even the knowledgeable Javier was shocked.

Ryan is not only a great knight, but also a rare poisoner?
The servants around them froze in place, their expressions dulled for a moment.
"Baron Ryan, I didn't expect that... besides being a great knight, you are also a rare poisoner?" Alyosha was so surprised that he stuttered when he spoke.

"Haha, I can't really say I'm a poison master, but I occasionally need poison during battles, so I taught myself a little bit."

"This time, I just want to ask Miss Alyosha, a genuine pharmacist, for advice if I want to further improve my poison making skills," Ryan asked.

After the dinner, Ryan was smiling on the way back.

He obtained a letter of introduction from Alyosha to the Münster branch of the Royal Apothecary Society.

The main content of the letter is that Alyosha, as a recommender, recognized that Ryan had good attainments in pharmacy and suggested that the Münster branch include Ryan as a part-time researcher.

Because Ryan himself is an imperial baron and a sword-bearer, this matter is not that difficult to accomplish. After all, the Royal Pharmacists Association is also an organization affiliated with the Empire.

The most difficult part is that it requires relevant personnel to introduce this link, and Alyosha played this role very well.

It was already late when we returned to the Sword Bearer branch.

Ryan, who was tired after a day's work, naturally fell into a deep sleep quickly.

Early the next morning.

Ryan, awakened by the morning light, washed up quickly and headed towards the mission hall.

He first had to confirm the completion of the two tasks of serving as a security consultant in the trade zone and rescuing Alyosha and claim the rewards.

The relevant communication and coordination matters and proof of task completion have been coordinated by Javier.

However, to claim the reward for the final mission, Ryan still needs to go to the mission hall himself.

In addition, the rescue mission of the Rock Team is a bit more troublesome. Even with the letter of certification, the Sword Bearer Division will probably need some time to review and confirm it.
Soon, Ryan walked through the flower-filled garden and arrived in front of the circular statue fountain. Behind the fountain was the mission hall of the Sword Bearer Division.

As soon as he entered the hall, Ryan discovered that there were a lot more people coming and going in the hall this time than last time. It seemed that because of the attacks by the sea tribe and the cult, the number of tasks issued by the branch increased significantly.

Naturally, more people are taking over tasks.

However, although there were many people, it was not noisy.

Most acquaintances simply nodded to each other or exchanged a few words of greeting. Most of them had serious expressions or seemed to be in a hurry.

It seems that this incident has put a lot of pressure on the Sword Bearers Munster branch.

Since Ryan was a newcomer, naturally there was not many people he could say hello to.

The only few he was familiar with, such as Remiel, were now at the front line accompanying their captain Batista for emergency treatment.

However, the members of the Rock Team will return to Munster soon after the captain Batista's injuries stabilize. Not to mention others, Batista alone will have to come to Munster for follow-up treatment.

Ryan found a counter with relatively few people in line and waited.
Of the three people in front, two handed in tasks and one accepted a task, and each had only one task, so after about seven or eight minutes, it was Ryan's turn.

"Hello, sir, how can I help you?" A beautiful female employee saw Ryan coming forward, stood up, smiled and bowed.

"Hello, please help me confirm that I have completed my assignment." Ryan said as he handed his bronze badge to the other party.

Hearing that Ryan was here to confirm the completion of the mission, the female staff member couldn't help but smile even sweeter. She respectfully took the badge with both hands and said:

"Yes, sir, please wait a moment."

"I have checked, sir. You were previously serving as a security consultant in the Munster Trade Zone. Yesterday morning, the Munster Administrative Office sent a letter of completion to the branch."

At this point, the attentive female staff member paused, because she realized that the mission of Mr. Ryan in front of her had only lasted for a few days but had already ended.

This is very rare, most sword-wielding adults only last for a month.

However, there are exceptions.

This situation will happen to some sword-bearers with special backgrounds.

"What is the branch's evaluation of your mission? Three bronze medals, plus 500 merit points?" The female employee's eyes widened in surprise.

Normally, isn't it usually one bronze medal? With a little fluctuation, it's rare to hear of two medals, after all, it's a temporary assignment for new masters.
But this one in front of me.
The female employee checked it again and again and looked at the task completion statement.

Only then did she realize that the young man in front of her had actually killed a native who was so powerful that he looked like a senior knight.

That's it!

"Any questions?" Ryan frowned and glanced at the female employee.

Could it be that Lord Javier failed to help him contact the Münster Administrative Office?

If there is a problem with the first task, then.
"No! No! There is no problem, sir, it's just that your mission rating is quite high, which is rare."

"The total reward for your assignment is three bronze medals, plus 500 merit points. Please confirm." The female employee stood up respectfully and handed a document to Ryan for his signature.

Ren nodded.

He already knew the relevant task evaluation.

"Sir, you have obtained three bronze medals this time, which means you have met the requirements for upgrading from a bronze badge to a silver badge. Please wait for two minutes while I help you change the badge, okay?"

"Promote to the Silver Badge?"

"Yes, sir. The promotion does not consume any medals. However, I need to go to the Vice Minister of Affairs to open the silver authority for you so that you can take the subsequent silver-level tasks. So, you need to wait here for a few minutes."

"Yeah, okay." Ryan nodded.

The female employee was seen walking quickly towards an office behind the counter with documents in her hand.

Two minutes later, the female staff member came back quickly again, and handed Ryan a badge that was slightly larger than the bronze badge and shone with silver light, slightly out of breath, and said:

"Sir, I have done it for you. This is your silver badge. Please keep it."

"Your mission rewards have also been recorded. With the emblem, you can check and use evaluation medals and merit points in any department of the Sword Bearer Branch."

"Thank you."

Ryan took it and looked at it. The silver badge did not seem to be made of pure silver, but was mixed with other metals. The silver luster was very beautiful. The image of a knight holding a sword on the front remained unchanged, and his name was still on the back.

At this time, Ryan handed the silver badge to the female staff again and said, "There is another rescue mission, which I should have completed."

"Huh? Any more?" The surprised female employee took the badge again and started to check.

Because under normal circumstances, completed tasks will be displayed.

The female employee couldn't help but look puzzled.

Huh?
It really does.

This. Is this a completed silver-level rescue mission?

But this gentleman’s badge authority was only bronze, so how could he receive a silver-level mission?

The female staff was also a little confused.

However, she was just a clerk, so she naturally would not question anything, but handled it quickly according to the regulations.

Soon, she said to Ryan:
"Sir, the rescue of the trapped personnel of the Royal Pharmacist Association has been confirmed by the branch. The mission reward of two silver medals and 1500 merit points has been recorded in your emblem."

"Okay." Ryan nodded.

He already knew about the rewards.

Because before setting out on the mission, Javier told him frankly that this was the highest reward he could coordinate with the Munster Sword Bearers branch to give.

"Well, sir, you now have a total of two silver and three bronze medals, as well as 14341 merit points, of which 2000 are rewards for these two missions."

The young female employee had developed a certain immunity to Ryan, and she was not tongue-tied this time when she saw more than 10,000 merit points.

Ren nodded.

The amount is fine.

He had used up some merit points before when buying potions and training in the advanced rapids chamber.

Just as the female staff member was about to hand the silver badge to Ryan again, Ryan waved his hand and said:

"Wait, there is another mission, but this mission was originally accepted by the Rock Team. Now it has been completed by me and the Rock Team. We have agreed to split the mission reward 60% and 40%."

"Here is a letter of certification from the Rock Squad."

In fact, Ryan originally wanted to split it 50-50, after all, he was just doing it casually.

But Batista insisted on a 70:30 ratio. Finally, after Remiel's persuasion, the stubborn Batista finally accepted the 60:40 ratio.

Of course, it’s Ryan Six and Rock Team Four.

As long as there is proof from the initial mission team, the Sword Bearer Division will approve of this behavior. After all, this is a way to encourage internal teams to help each other and reduce casualties.

Ok?
Hearing Ryan's words, the female employee was slightly stunned.

She must have heard it right just now.

The Rock Squad?

She had been working in the mission hall for two and a half years, so she certainly knew the famous Swordsman Team and had accomplished many difficult missions.

When she took the certificate from Ryan and looked up the name of the mission, she was stunned:
"Investigating the disappearance of multiple elite teams of the Empire (Gold Level). A sea tribe altar was found on an offshore island off the coast of Mayest County. Recently, two elite teams of the special department of the Empire's military, the Earthshakers, who went to investigate, have disappeared one after another, as well as..."

"Mission requirements: Investigate the relevant situation within three days. Mission rewards: Three gold medals, 4500 merit points."

"(Note: If a survivor is found and rescued during the investigation, the reward will be increased.)"

"This is an investigation mission with a basic reward of three gold medals!"

"I'm sorry, sir. I don't have enough authority. You need to ask Deputy Minister of Olena to handle this matter for you personally. Please wait a moment. I will report right away."

"Okay." Ryan nodded.

Then, the female employee hurriedly ran to the office of the Vice Minister of Affairs behind her.

A sturdy sword-wielding man standing behind Ryan was speechless as he saw Ryan's butt almost nailed to the chair in front of him.

Just now he followed the queue here because he saw that there were the least people queuing here.

Unexpectedly, he has now become the slowest one in all the teams.

Damn, I've been waiting for fifteen minutes.

What is this guy in front doing?

so long?

But, what did he vaguely hear just now?
It seems that the female employee said that she did not have enough authority?

The burly man looked at the female employee who left again, then looked at the young and unfamiliar Ryan with a suspicious look on his face.

He has been the captain of the Sword Bearers for two and a half years, and he has never heard the female staff complain about insufficient authority when handling his affairs.
