They don't want me to work harder

"The upper limit of the summoned beasts that a silver-level summoner can contract is much more than that of bronze, but Mr. Richard has just been promoted to a higher level, so he probably hasn't expanded his summons too much, right? So I thought of giving this book to you. , hope it can help.”

"Of course, these insect-like monsters may not be stronger than the demons or elemental lords that Saint Goethe can provide, but their advantage is that few people know them..."

Richard understood what Sophia meant.

Taking Aaron and Damon as examples, there must be many imperial geniuses who graduated from Saint Goethe in the Easter competition, and they must be very familiar with the typical summons of the summoners of Saint Goethe's academic school.

If nothing else, most of them are good at dealing with demons.

Therefore, Richard had better use some less common summoned beasts to achieve unexpected effects.

Richard closed the book and said frankly: "This is really too valuable..."

For a summoner, a suitable summoned object means a permanent improvement in strength, which is not something that will be lost just by participating in a competition.

"You're welcome. As your strength increases, it means the team's strength increases. I also want to win."

"You're really not being polite. There is a proverb in my hometown that says you can't accept payment without merit... Miss Sophia, if you have any conditions you want, just ask for it."

Seeing Richard's insistence, Sophia blinked, tapped her red lips with her slender index finger, and smiled after a moment:

"Then...if I let Mr. Richard recite poetry outside my window every morning, just like in the opera, for ten days, is that okay?"

Ah this...

Even if I put aside issues such as personal wishes, if I really do this, a certain sword master will definitely fly across half the empire with a chain!

"Pfft, I was kidding."

Sofia did not let Richard continue to be embarrassed, and said seriously: "I really can't think of anything in particular that I want at the moment... If Mr. Richard really feels sorry for him, just be a favor to me."

Having said this, Richard had no choice but to agree.

After thanking her again, Sofia stood up and left, while Richard continued to study the book.

He quickly chose his target and asked Katyusha to help prepare things while he went to apply for a room with Teacher Arnold.

Saint Goethe had everything he wanted, so at noon the next day, he took all the materials and went outside the summoning tower.

Arnold, who was guarding here, narrowed his eyes and smiled: "When I think that a few months ago you were only in the first stage of bronze, I feel incredible. Sure enough, the potential of youth is infinite?"

"Teacher, you have won the prize."

"No way? If you wait another two years, you might be stronger than me. It's time for me to call you teacher... But don't expect me to run errands and bring you souvenirs!"

Why are you still thinking about souvenirs...

Richard didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and followed Arnold to the tower.

Because it was already the third time, he arranged the various items with ease, then sat down cross-legged, took out the book and a small bottle of mercury, and drew an overlapping ring symbol on the cover.

Then he closed his eyes, followed the guidance of the magic circle and coordinates, and his spirit began to wander.

Different from the Bronze Age, after passing Silver's advancement ceremony, he can use his spirit to condense an illusion that retains part of his strength when summoned across realms, so as to find and conquer the target more accurately.

soon.

His vision came to the illusionary world where insects were rampant. When he opened his eyes, he was surrounded by towering strange plants.

"Let me see, what the giant beetle likes is the juice of Orchid Dream Grass..."

Just as he was about to take out the bait to catch bugs, there was a buzzing in his ears.

"There are enemies?"

When he raised his eyes, he saw the flying object and immediately froze on the spot.

"Oh my god, which dragon is so harsh!"

Chapter 89 Pre-match training is a must

What caught Richard's eyes were three strange dragonflies.

Each of them is six or seven meters long. Their bodies are red with gold patterns, and they have spiral horns on their heads. There are sharp chitin sickles on the edges of their wings and tails. They can be seen here and there on the body surface. Many scales…

That's right, that should be dragon scales.

In other words, are these three dragonflies with dragon blood?

Richard's mouth twitched slightly.

He had heard that the dragon was not afraid of being cold, but he thought it would at least be limited to vertebrates. How could he have thought that it could even kill insects?

Luckily no dragons wanted to poke me.

But back to reality, Richard carefully observed the dragonflies and found that they were not recorded in the book, but their individual strength was probably as high as bronze, and their flying speed was ridiculously fast. If you cooperate, even the first Dahei will probably retreat when he sees it.

More importantly, it seems that due to the dragon's bloodline, his [Dragon Knight] trait is also effective on them, so that they are extremely well-behaved when facing Richard, and can even be described as awe-inspiring.

Richard had no doubt that he could make them sign a contract without having to pay any decent sacrifices.

Needless to say, even if there were system rewards to explain it, he still felt that this scene was really strange, as if he had raised the three dragonflies since childhood, or there was something behind them that was forcing them.

But doubts remain doubts. There are advantages to visiting the door, so why not?

Richard fell in love and silently crossed out beetles on his schedule and changed them to dragonflies - this was the name he gave his new partners.

After the interlude, he found two more interesting magic insects.

Finally, only the last one was left on the schedule.

"The wonderful fireflies that can conduct magic... This introduction is too little, and there are no pictures."

Seeing that the summoning room was about to expire, Richard couldn't help but feel slightly anxious.

But he couldn't find the target after looking left and right, so he had to sigh and planned to take a break to calm down.

He looked up at the starry sky and saw the stars shining brightly above the night in the fantasy world, and hummed a song unconsciously...

"Twinkle, twinkle, twinkle...eh, that's not right."

Is there a night sky in this fantasy world?According to the book, this should be underground, right?The top of your head is a rock wall.

So where do these stars come from...

Richard was startled and finally laughed out loud.

It turned out to be the case.

He controlled the dragonfly he had just obtained to fly up to the dome and circle around. As expected, countless stars began to move as the buzzing sound resounded. Blue-white light spots drew bright lines in the dark background, as if they were on a stage. An unprecedented meteor shower.

Yes, these stars are Richard's targets.

He used the hands of the mage to pull down two small stars and put them in his hands for a look.

It turned out to be two fireflies as long as forearms, with bright lights on their abdomens, causing bursts of magic power.

"...Change your name. I'll call you Xingying from now on."

After half an hour.

"You kid..."

Arnold looked at Richard who finally came out, curled his lips and said, "Do we have to use it until the last moment every time?"

"It's not too late for good things to happen."

Richard, who had gained a lot, grinned and said: "Thank you for your hard work, teacher. Next time I go somewhere, I will definitely bring you souvenirs!"

"...the quantity must be doubled!"

Ah, this...I can't help but want to stuff a large intestine into it!

Richard smirked and left the scene.

But before he could go back to bed, two people were waiting for him.

"Miss Catherine?"

Richard looked at the graceful figure in the middle of the road and asked curiously: "Is there something unexpected?"

Catherine shook her head and said: "No, I just heard that you passed the preliminaries and obtained a new summoning object. I feel it is necessary to start training. It just so happens that the venue in Saint Goethe is easy to use and the price is right..."

Richard thought to himself: There is still one month before the official competition. The three of them are working together to form a team. It is natural for them to work together.

So he followed Catherine and Sophia to Saint Goethe's training room with the best conditions - well, that's where he and Luvia often stayed.

It's just that now there is no big sister coach rubbing shoulders with each other, instead there are two beauties looking him up and down.

"Sofia and I are very familiar with each other, so before we start, I want to try your abilities alone as a warm-up."

Catherine said, pulling out a two-handed sword as tall as herself from behind.

Along with her movements, pieces of armor flew out of the package at her feet, and automatically fitted to her whole body, forming a set of red and white heavy armor from head to toe.

Then, runes lit up on her armor, and circles of light appeared under her feet. The light spread to a range of ten meters, forming a hazy light field.

"You can attack me, but you'd better summon the purple-eyed black dragon, otherwise you can't do anything to me."

Catherine's words were very confident.

And as a mid-level hospital knight, she also has the qualifications to be confident.

The Knights of the Hospital, a profession that has been gradually formed since 300 years ago, originated from an order of Holy Knights who betrayed the church due to internal dirty things. The name is the Knights of the Hospital.

The characteristics of the Paladins are well known. They can use holy light and can fight. However, at that time, the knights of the Knights Hospitaller lost the blessing of their faith and naturally lost these abilities.

However, the leader of the Knights had a very deep understanding of the power of the Holy Light. During his defection, he cooperated with many mages and alchemists, and finally restored some of his abilities with the help of magic.

Later, the knights were disbanded, some were pardoned and returned to the church, and some were exterminated. This set of skills spread and eventually evolved into a new profession.

Compared with traditional knights, hospital knights are better at using alchemy equipment. They are extremely functional, can fight and resist, and can heal people without relying on faith, or add buffs to teammates.

As for the shortcomings of this profession...

Mainly expensive.

The equipment is expensive and the logistics are expensive. Because practitioners are required to be proficient in knight tactics and alchemy runes at the same time, the threshold is high and the training is expensive. It can even make many middle- and upper-class nobles feel painful.

At a quick glance, Richard judged that Catherine's equipment was more than twice as expensive as what Linda was wearing.

This is not an iron can, it is clearly a gold can.

However, you want me to summon Dahei?
