Transcendent Noble

Victor stared at two blue and white ore on the table, browsing tightly frowns.

Nelson has reported the matter to him. Today, when Gru led the team on a security mission, they caught three sneaky freemen on the outskirts of the woods and found two ore hidden on their bodies.

Passing Nelson’s During the interrogation, the three freedmen explained the reasons for the matter.

It turns out that these three are members of a free private camp to the west of Victor Territory. They usually rely on gathering and hunting for their livelihoods. Just two days ago, their camp was breached by a group of jackal robbers, and most of the people in the camp were taken away by the jackals. The three of them were lucky enough to escape, but without the camp and their companions, they were impossible to survive in the wild. So they want to join another large free private camp on this territory. In order to be able to join the free private camp smoothly, they also brought two peculiar ore as a gift, wanting to give to the leader of the free private camp, hoping to get his asylum.

"Nelson, do you think this is mythril ore?" Victor looked towards Nelson with a tangled look.

Mithril is an extremely precious metal in this world. It has elemental affinity properties that other metals do not have. Weapons and armors mixed with Mithril can more easily attach to the four elements.

Scholar of the Silver Tower has done detailed research, and they found that the Mithril equipment allows the Silver Knight to stimulate the elemental strength more than three times higher than that of ordinary equipment, which is an overwhelming advantage.

This advantage makes all high-level Knights eager for Mithril equipment. Every Knight who is promoted to the Silver Rank must first solve the problem of how to obtain a set of Mithril equipment.

Unfortunately, the production of Mithril is extremely low, which makes Mithril extremely expensive. A piece of Mithril can be exchanged for 30 times the weight of gold.

However, at such exaggerated prices, Mithril is often not available for purchase, because simply no nobles are willing to sell such strategic materials.

"My lord, it looks very much like a mythril mine in appearance and color." Nelson also looked sad.

If an ordinary lord learns that there is a mithril mine in his territory, he will wake up with a smile even if he dreams, but for Victor, this is a big trouble, because his current strength is too much weak.

"My lord, do you want to get rid of those three people." As a mercenary rolling on the tip of a knife, Nelson has a very ruthless side.

"It’s useless, we don’t know how many survivors there are in that free private camp."

After thinking about it, Victor shook the head firmly, and Sighed continued: "Go and call Master Edwin and Knight Bruce. You know, if it's a mithril mine, we won't be able to keep it." Nelson nodded, got up and walked out. Although he was a little unwilling, he also knew that Victor's decision was correct. Facing the risks brought by the Mithril mine alone, he might as well seek cooperation from the York family. Even if the Mithril is not available, he can be compensated in other ways.

After a while, the door of the barracks was pushed open, and a black bird flew in first.

This is a big crow. Its feathers are dark and shiny, and it has dark red eyes. When it saw Victor, it immediately fluttered its wings and landed on Victor’s shoulders and used itself to be hard. His beak lightly pecked Victor's hair.

Victor looked at it, and this crow showed his intimacy to please him, and couldn't help but smiled slightly.

This is the first alchemy creature produced by King Tower Spirit for him. Victor witnessed the entire manufacturing process.

At that time, in the air above the stone cave altar, four runes of different colors appeared first. These four runes continued to rotate, and gradually hundreds of runes of different shapes were derived. These runes surrounded With the four initial runes continuously rotating, a brilliance intertwined with four colors of earthy yellow, fiery red, sky blue, and turquoise is formed on the altar.

In these brilliance, the shape of a bird slowly appeared. An hour later, a Golden Crow opened its eyes on the altar, and the rune in the void gradually disappeared.

When he just got this Golden Crow crow, Victor wanted to test the ability of the Golden Crow crow immediately. During the day, by continuously spreading bait on the ground, it attracts the surrounding birds to eat, and mixes his own Golden Crow crow in the bird flock.

In the end, everyone thought that Victor had recovered a bold and greedy crow as a pet while feeding the birds.

Through the observations and experiments in the past few days, Victor was pleasantly surprised to find that this alchemy creature worth 50 gold thor is not simple.

First of all, Golden Crow has the concept of time, which can accurately appear in the time period that Victor feeds every day. The concept of time means that this alchemy creature has memory and intelligence.

Secondly, it has strong mobility, a keen sense of smell, and vision and hearing far beyond the ordinary person. It can fly at a speed of 70 kilometers per hour, can smell 20 kilometers away, can see Victor's hand gestures at a height of several hundred meters, and can hear human conversations at a distance of hundreds of meters.

Finally, it also has a strong ability to imitate different sounds, including human dialogue.

Victor did an experiment. He took advantage of Gelu's team to perform the reconnaissance mission and gave the items left by Gelu to the Golden Crow Crow to sniff, and follow the method that Tower Spirit taught him. A special gesture was made to the crow, and the crow flew out immediately, following the smell and began to track Gru.

About two hours after coming here, the crow flew back. In front of Victor, it expressed the results of its investigation to Victor through different flight attitudes and calls.

The target is 40 kilometers away from here, to the southeast, and a small group of people.

After expressing these information, this guy actually imitated a few words that Glu had said.

For example, "We can get 11 work points per person for today's task." "Teach you how many times to brat. After shit in the wild, remember to bury it." "How to die? I don’t know!"

The results of this experiment prove to Victor that Golden Crow is an excellent investigative unit. It can describe the results of investigations through preset actions and imitate overheard voices. .

Although most of the imitations are disorderly discourses, if these Golden Crows rehearse in groups, it is not difficult for people to analyze extremely valuable intelligence in these disorderly discourses.

The excellent performance of the Golden Crow makes Victor look forward to other alchemy creatures. It’s just an extra bird to explain, but it appears a big living person or an extra violent animal how to cover it ?

Victor can only wait, at least until Bruce and Edwin leave the territory.

"The Moon Elf bloodline is naturally close to the bloodline, even animals are close to you." Master Edwin walked in and saw the big crow getting close to Victor, said with envy and envy.

Since Edwin discovered that this pet crow can imitate human language, he suddenly became interested. For these two days, he has been persistently feeding the big crow with dried fruit, wheat, and dried meat, trying to abduct it. .

Unfortunately, facing the scholar's sugar-coated cannonballs, the big crow has always eaten the sugar-coated cannonballs and throw them back. As soon as it saw Victor, it would immediately abandon Edwin and fly directly to the owner's side, which made the old scholar very angry.

"Master Edwin, Knight Bruce, you are here."

Victor stood up and smiled and greeted the nodded two who walked in one after another. For the old scholar's misunderstanding, he can only sneer in his heart.

"I want to ask you to see something." Victor drove the crow out on his shoulder, and handed the two ore to each of them.

After receiving the ore, Knight Bruce's expression suddenly condensed, his gaze looked towards Victor scorchingly, and tentatively asked: "Mythril Mine?"

Victor gave Knight Bruce a stall After spreading his hands, he said he was not sure, and then everyone in the room looked towards Master Edwin with scorching eyes.

If this is really mythril mine, it is definitely a major event for the entire Centaur Hills.

"Unfortunately, this is not a mythril mine." After careful inspection, Master Edwin loosened his frowning eyebrows.

"This is a softsilver mine. Its color is very similar to mythril mine, but it has a kind of elasticity that other minerals don't have. You can pinch it in your hand." Edwin explained.

Knight Bruce immediately squeezed the ore in his hand, and as expected, several obvious fingerprints were left on the surface of the ore.

"Master, is this the fake silver ore in rumor?" Bruce regretfully threw the ore on the table and asked Edwin.

"Yes, it is the fake silver ore that is often used by crooks to impersonate mythril mine." Edwin nodded.

The color and shape of softsilver ore are very similar to mythril ore. People often mistake softsilver ore for mythril ore. However, the metal extracted from softsilver ore is as soft as silt and cannot be used at all. Forging equipment, there is no element affinity, so softsilver has no value to humans, so people call this kind of softsilver fake silver.

Victor is secretly relieved. Although it is a pity, Victor has Alchemy Tower in his hands. As long as he has time to immerse himself in development, what is a trifling mine?

If it is really a Mithril mine, it will be a big trouble for Victor. Maybe even his territory will be replaced by a powerful noble group. When the time comes, he can’t get Alchemy Tower. Move away.

"Although softsilver is worthless, there is an associated crystal in its veins that can be processed into exquisite jewelry, which is also a good income for your territory."

Edwin tried to comfort the "lost" little lord, and then asked: "You found this softsilver mine there?"

"Today Nelson caught three freemen who were peeping at the camp. These two minerals were found on his body."

Victor then described to Bruce and Edwin in detail about the Jackal’s attack on the freedmen and the large freemen’s camp in the territory.

"Victor, the jackals are insignificant, but freedmen are a big problem in your territory. You must pay attention to this. Is there any more detailed information?" Bruce heard that there are large-scale freedoms in the territory. Said to Victor solemnly after the private camp.

"According to these three people, there are currently two large free private camps and a few small camps in the territory. I estimate that the total number of free people is 800." Nelson received Victor After signalling, said to Bruce.

"The two large camps, one is located on the east side of the territory and the border of Count Chebman. The free people in this camp are very xenophobic. They never communicate with other free private camps. Kill strangers near their camp, so the three people don’t know much about that camp."

"The other camp is in our northeast corner. The number of freedmen should be around 300. , They have spared no effort to take in free people who went to take refuge, and often exchange materials with other free people camps, so their reputation is very loud among these free people."

"The leader of this camp is called Bayer, it is rumored that he once served in the military in Dodo, participated in the battle of Baishuibao against Sasanian, and obtained a heroic long sword. This Bayer seems to be deliberately promoting his bravery everywhere. These three free men are I want to take the ore to trust him."

After listening to Nelson’s narrative, Bruce said with a cold laugh: "A year ago, when our family guard came to clean up this territory, I found that free private camp. There were only a few dozen people at the time. Didn’t expect to control so many people in just one year. Hehe, this Bayer Interesting."

"It’s time to go See this Bayer." Victor said softly with blinking eyes.
