Transcendent Noble

Before going to Mercury Manor, Victor took a trip to the secret castle of the hills, gave Alchemy Tower a capital of 300,000 jinsol, and set up a production task to combine the two refineries. Golden Dragon lizards are placed in the first place, followed by 300 Golden Crow crows, 50 alchemy war mastiffs, and a total cost of 155,000 gold sols.

The resources reserved by Alchemy Tower were reduced by half in an instant. Victor was dripping blood in his heart, and he kept comforting himself that these investments will have more generous returns in the future.

This is indeed the case. Victor has produced 7 Golden Dragon lizards, with a total investment of 350,000 Jinsor. A few years ago, the two-headed dragon lizard Itugos killed 1 golden dragon lizard, and there are 6 remaining. They then occupied the territory of Itugos, with an area of ​​more than 6000 square kilometers. In the past five years, half-dragon humans and goblin slaves in the territory have provided Victor with a large amount of Zesheng resources and mineral resources. The market value is close to 600,000 goldsore, which far exceeds the manufacturing cost of refining Golden Dragon lizards, while refining Golden Dragon lizards There are still 15 years of using lifespan. In other words, the production structure of the forward base will bring Victor at least 100,000 jinsols each year, and the output for the next 15 years will be all net profits.

Of course, the Zesheng resources and mineral resources collected by the forward base cannot be simply converted into gold sol. The market does not have that large capacity, and there are not so many gold coins. These resources are brought to the market in one mind. , Will only lead to rapid depreciation of goods in local areas. For example, the new bud castle reserves a batch of crystal glazes donated by goblin slaves. According to the current market price, they are worth 170,000 jinsore, but if these glazes are really sold on the Wild Willow City market, their transaction price It fell by at least 40%. Because the caravan is bound to lower the purchase price of the crystal glaze and ensure that it has enough funds to purchase other goods.

As a result, Jinsor did not appreciate, Alchemy Tower still costs so much to make alchemy creatures, and Victor lost 68,000 Jinsor in vain.

If you use these glaze rocks to refine crystals and build a crystal greenhouse, you can harvest fresh fruits and vegetables in the cold water season. Silvermoon Manor will no longer purchase fruits and vegetables at high prices, and can even sell them outside, or Reward to the families of vassals who have done meritorious service, and save a bounty. Therefore, in the long run, these crystal glaze rocks are far more than 170,000 jinsore.

Similar to the medicine ingredients that are equipped with Dragon Vein potions and golden potions, Victor is reserved for personal use and will not be sold.

The production structure of the forward base creates a wealth of 100,000 goldsall every year, and Victor has racked his brains to ensure that it can continue to operate. The key is not the half-dragon human, which is delicious and lazy, but the hordes of goblin slaves.

Goblin slaves are excellent labor. Compared with marsh scouts, they don’t need equipment worth 60 goldsore, they don’t receive salaries, they don’t need pensions for deaths and injuries, and they can do a day’s work as long as they are full every day. It can make various tools, simply process resources, improve the efficiency of material transportation and storage, and can even serve as a ration for the alchemy war mastiff.

How can you give up such a useful slave?

At the latest, there will be 7 years before the second wave ant tide will appear. Considering the predatory destruction of resources by ant-man, Victor decided to make full use of the goblin slave and seize the time to collect Zesheng resources. This requires more alchemy creatures to fill the vacancy after the withdrawal of the half-dragon human tribe.

In addition to producing two marsh dragon lizards and a batch of alchemy war mastiffs, Victor also plans to deploy another 150 homunculus types from Mercury Manor to enter the forward base to assist Imerson in controlling the goblin slaves.

Originally, he could save the 150,000 kinshor and use it to produce homunculus. As long as Imerson cultivates a powerful alienated beast, it is enough to deter the goblin slave, and he can also explore the unknown area of ​​the lizard swamp, cover a group of alchemy militiamen through the swamp, go to the Endless Forest to detect the ant-man's nest, and even help resist the ant plague.

Before the change, Victor would never allow Imerson to control the giant alienated beast. Imerson once proposed to cultivate an alienated hexapod crocodile to deal with the out-of-control Itugos, but Victor rejected it. Now, His Royal Highness Randal is confident enough to suppress the alienated beast of the wizard. The funny thing is, now it's Imerson's turn to reluctantly.

He wanted to prove his worth before and did everything possible to please Victor, just to return to the civilized world as soon as possible and reunite with Bertina. Now that he has returned to the human kingdom, he is enjoying the treatment of a hunting chief. There are two charming little wives who don't even care about their baby daughter. Then he is willing to take the risk of using wisdom to guide witchcraft and reveal his identity as a wizard?

Imerson pulled out a lot of reasons, mainly because he was afraid of being sent to the Great Swamp again, and accompany the smelly goblin all day long.

For the personal temperament problem, Victor can't reluctantly, even if he forces Imerson to act according to the instructions, trembling with fear, the suspicious wizard will also make mistakes. In fact, Imerson's worries are not unreasonable. In addition to Miller, Randal has several mid- to high-end priests. Father Dane only talked about the wizard with Victor a few days ago. Imerson's safety and loyalty are more important than the hundreds of thousands of Kingsall.

Victor traveled alone in the wild, and soon arrived at the Mercury Manor, and saw Nelson who was ordered to come and join him.

At this moment, the sun had just risen, and the two exchanged greetings before standing outside the playground of the manor, watching the soldiers practice the secret martial skill.

The soldiers on the playground are divided into three parts. One is the homunculus class who receives a three-month social common sense training here. They practice the wolf battle skill every day; the other part is the Randal Family family who advises Jin to adopt There are about 50 children of, their average age is less than 9 years old. They all have undergone body reshaping and practiced the Griffin battle skill that can ignite the fire of the soul; the last part is the ferocious warrior gathered by mercury and smuggling caravans. Currently there are only two people practicing the Grim Bear battle skill and the Wild Ape battle skill respectively.

"My lord, the kid who practices the blizzard battle skill is Rogers. Don’t look at his big head and beard. In fact, he is only 21 years old. He is a very good youngster and my favorite student. ." Nelson pointed to one of them, quite contented introduced.

He has brown hair and brown eyes, a height of 1.95 meters, muscular knots, a thick skeleton, and his bronzed skin shows signs of weathering, three deep scars on his chest, and a messy beard attached to his hair. , Concealing the profound facial features, looks like a prime of life, completely unlike a 21-year-old youth. At this moment, he is practicing blizzard battle skill shirtless, each step left deep footprints on the tamped playground, the muscles roll layer by layer, the movements are integrated, like a giant bear pounce, full of a strong sense of strength .

"You are stronger than you were eight years ago." Victor nodded commented.

"Of course, he practiced the blizzard battle skill that adults and I created together." Nelson patted his chest, laughed, and said eagerly, "My lord, Rogers, this kid is tuned for hire. Legion, right?"

Rogers was once a mountain boy. His cottage was breached by another group of mountain people, and his father was brutally killed. Warhammer smuggled Business Group on the ice-breaking journey, bumped into the group of mountain people, killed their leader easily, and indirectly avenged Rogers' blood. Since then, Rogers has joined the Warhammer mercenary group, and has been carefully trained by the Warhammer Mercenary Hammer, which is considered to be the same as Nelson of common origins.

Victor was silent, his eyes turned to another fierce warrior. He has red hair, light gray and blue eyes, ordinary appearance, moderate height, thin and slender body, wearing a tight-fitting leather armor, and is practicing the crazy ape battle skill. He can take seven or eight meters away in one step, and his movements are as swift as flying, like a monkey leaping vertically, coming and going freely, sensitive and alert.

His name is Red Wolf. He is a discipline adopted by Barol in Black Castle Town. He is good at stealing and has the name of a thief.

Victor lifted his chin, smiled and asked: "The red wolf practice mad ape battle skill, and it is also your student, why don't you want him?"

Nelson's face A look of contempt was shown on the upper side, said with curled lips: "Slick temperament, timid like a mouse...The mad ape battle skill pays attention to agility, and is more violent. The flexible movements are for fierce attacks. This kid has practiced the mad ape battle skill. Become a fox battle skill."

Victor nodded: "The violent bear and the mad ape are derived from your imagination, and both have your brave style. The mad ape is more brilliant than the violent bear. It is a pity that it is red. There is a difference in personality between wolf and you. Crazy ape battle skill is not suitable for him... But it does not mean that red wolf is a waste. He can be an excellent scout and assassin."

For a heartbeat, he rubbed his chin, observed the red wolf for a while, blurted out: "My lord...Red wolf, give me too."

Victor laughed, shook his head and said, "No one for you! Rogers and Red Wolf, I want to bring it with me to personally train, as well as Marcy and Caligula, I have also sent people to call them over." Nelson eyes shined, asked in surprise: " My lord, do you want to deduce a higher level of spiritual bloodline secrets?"

The potential of an ordinary person is limited. If you want to deduce a higher level of spiritual bloodline secrets, it is best to choose a ferocious human as the test object. According to the church's statistics, the ratio of violent humans is 7000 to 1, but there are very few people who can truly manifest violent humans, and most of the violent humans have been buried. The Randal Family selected ferocious humans based on intuitive and keen conditions. After working for several years, they only found Rogers and Red Wolf. Others who claimed to be dangerous and intuitive were all proved to be suspicious patients. Obviously, it is difficult for an ordinary person to refer to objective conditions to judge who is the real ferocious human.

Rogers, Red Wolf, plus Nelson, Tornance and Marcy, the violent warrior of the Randal Family is only 5 people.

In this regard, Victor is also very helpless, hoping that Nelson and Caligula will one day reach the level of Tornance, and find the real ferocious humans with the touch of their hearts.

But then again, how many violent warriors can Tornance single out? Randal Family can have 5 fierce warriors, which is pretty good.

Victor silently sighed, nodded said: "The high level spiritual bloodline secret is very important. Although Rogers and the Red Wolf are part of the family, they are from the smuggling caravan and Mercury after all, in order to ensure that there is nothing wrong. , I am going to bring them by my side and act as my guards...By the way, adjust the personnel structure of the guards. All guards over the age of 35 will be transferred out so that they can marry wives and children and start a family. Their job treatment, You and Lilia should make arrangements according to the standards of Hundred-men Commander."

The lord’s guard is the fast bird light cavalry, with a total of 300 people, half of which are homunculus and the other half are Randal Family. The children of the first batch of vassals. They are not as strong as the alchemy militia, but they are all carefully trained backbones of the Randal Family, and they are personally trained by Victor. No matter their personal ability or loyalty, they can't fault them.

Nelson's reaction was extremely quick, touching his head, grinning said with a smile: "The lord's guard does not marry a wife or give birth to children. The guy Gru is 41 years old and he is still a bachelor... …It’s time to find him two wives and regenerate some strong boys…sir, you don’t have to bother Lilia for the placement of retired guards. They are all warriors, and of course you have to be effective in the army. You are not planning to form The first Ranger? I think, let them set up the Ranger's shelf... By the way, how many people are in the Guards who are 35 years old? If there are too many people, you can hire Legion to place them here."

Glancing at Nelson, Victor shook his head and said: "You must first respect their own wishes. You can only place those who are willing to serve in the military."

"Not willing Come, I don’t want it yet." Nelson murmured, laughed and said: "This is the best."

Victor nodded, musingly said: "Another thing... another 8 God, you have to go to Blinol with Bruce and Tracey to teach the principle and application of the secret bloodline of the soul to Kite Castle... You may meet a wizard, but you don’t have to make a fuss about nothing, he may be the best potion today. Learn Master. Your main task is to cooperate with him to develop a spiritual meditation potion... However, I hope that we and Yuanbao will have a more extensive cooperation in the field of spiritual bloodline secrets."

"Yuanbao would like to focus on research. It is suitable for Knight’s bloodline secret method, and I value the potential of the ordinary person’s bloodline innate talent more." Victor paused, and continued: "During my stay in Naville, I saw several secret warriors cultivated by Kite Castle, their power and perception , Physical stamina, and physique have reached the level of the elementary Knight. But they are not ferocious humans."

"ordinary person? How did they do it?" Nelson's eyes glowed, with a surprised expression. on the face.

In theory, Knight's physical fitness represents the limit of human beings, but it is the first time Nelson has heard that the physical fitness of an ordinary person can reach the level of a junior Knight. Just like the elite guards of the Randal Family, the physique and strength are close to those of the beginner Knights, and the perception is too far; the elite guards with high perception and agility are not strong enough. The problem with the common secret warrior is that the attributes are not balanced enough, and the shortcomings limit the strength. Even the church cannot solve this problem. In order to balance the attributes, Paladin prefers to abandon extreme power. The power and perception of the mid-level Paladin are only three times that of the equivalent to ordinary person.

Nelson was eager to get the training method of Blood Guard at the time, and he wished to lead the team personally to raid the nest of Masked Brotherhood, because behind the mask may be a group of wizards, this stopped, but he often murmured with Victor. , Cited Blood Guard as a pity. Now, he has a keen interest in the secret warrior of Kite Castle.

Victor said: "Relying on potions and reshaping the body... For some reasons, the secret warrior of this level is almost impossible to replicate, and the time and resource costs for cultivating them are extremely high. So the Kite Castle I'm not very interested in the secret bloodline of the soul for the ordinary person."

Speaking of which, Victor paused and frowned:

Tofoven wizard’s lifespan is about to come to an end. He plans to spend more than ten years and concentrate on researching the potions that cooperate with Knight's bloodline secret method. Whether Kite Castle is willing to invest the limited lifespan of the wizard on ordinary soldiers depends on whether the things in my hand can attract them... The Augustus family has a lot of Knight nobles, and they compete with them for Knight’s spiritual bloodline secret method. I don’t have the slightest bit. Advantage. But I can live two hundred years old, and Tofoven only has more than ten years of lifespan. As long as he is willing to help me perfect the spiritual warrior's potion system, when Old Guy dies, I will be in the spiritual warrior field with the help of the potion system and X-3 No one can compete with me...I can't bear to let the child not catch the wolf. In addition to the three sets of secret methods, Nelson has to take the alchemy soldier over to show them, pretending to be my spiritual warrior!

He made up his mind, and he continued: "The secret bloodline of the soul must be supported by pharmacy to reach a higher level. We need to cooperate with the Potion Master of the Kite Castle to improve the training method of the soul warrior. I created three secret bloodline methods for ordinary persons. First, no medicine is needed, no need to reshape the body. A twelve-year-old child only needs to practice the piling method, the Breathing Technique and the battle skill, and practice 4 hours a day for five years. Let them achieve twice the physical fitness of an ordinary person; the second secret method, combined with ordinary body strengthening drugs, an 8-year-old child will practice 6 hours a day and practice hard for ten years, and it may reach three times the physical fitness of an ordinary person; the third set In theory, the secret method can make the warrior’s physical fitness equivalent to five times that of ordinary people, but it needs to reshape the body twice and cooperate with special medicine."

Nelson's eyes widened and his voice was extremely low. , "My lord, do you mean that the strength, perception, physique, and stamina are five times that of ordinary people? Isn't that... half-legged secret warrior?"

"...Of course." Victor picked it up. He raised his eyebrows and asked amusedly: "Do you call Renault, Bull, Jack and Shaq half-legs?"

Nelson laughed, touching the back of his head and said, "I am not This means... I’m telling the truth. You see that their powerful response is slow, and the fast response has no power. Isn’t it half a leg?"

Victor nodded and said: "Tornance's Gripen Both battle skill and gray wolf battle skill pursue balance. I also hold this view now... The third set of secret methods is already the secret method of the low-level spiritual warrior. Although it is not as perfect as Knight’s perfect balance, my spiritual warrior can never lose to the secret method. warrior."

"These three sets of secrets are actually of common origins, I call them the original blood secrets collectively, because they release the bloodline potential of humans, but they do not change the bloodline rules and have strong compatibility. The warrior who cultivates the original blood secret method can modify the higher-level spiritual bloodline secret method to reach the level of the high-level spiritual warrior-master the unique bloodline innate talent!" Nelson asked with piercing eyes: "Like the Blood Guard and S of Masked Brotherhood hadow Warrior? "

Victor carried with one hand on his back, and said reservedly: "I think both Blood Guard and Shadow Warrior belong to the category of spiritual warrior, but their innate talent is single, there is no complementarity, they have come to the end, far from it. And my soul warrior mention on equal terms. In fact, I have used special methods to create a spiritual warrior with two innate talents. "

"Really! ? Nelson couldn't hide his excitement, and asked excitedly: "My lord, can I see him?" "

Looking at the two ferocious warriors practicing the secret form on the playground, Victor indifferently said: "Don’t worry, when Caligula and the others come, I will introduce him to you. By the way, let Rogers and Hong The wolf tries his strength... your main task is to learn the secret method of the original blood in the past few days..."

As he said, the alchemy militia of Mercury Manor came over with a letter. The report: "My lord, Renault sent a letter from Silvermoon Manor. "

Victor took the letterhead, unfolded it and scanned it quickly, his expression suddenly became weird.

"My lord, what happened? Nelson asked beside.

Victor put away the letterhead, turned to look at Nelson curiously, and said, "Nicole asked me, can she come to Mercury Manor?" She also brought Judy and Lilia..."

"Huh? My lord... what can I do? Is the elite guardian of the family exposed? What does it mean for Mrs. Nicole to bring Mrs. Judy over? "Nelson was worried and confused, worried that Lilia would violate the master's will and leaked the existence of elite guards to Nicole, but could not understand Nicole's intention to bring Judy to Mercury Manor.

"... Nicole has been with me for nine years. "

There was a warm smile in the dark gold eyes, and His Royal Highness Randal said softly: "She wants to come to Mercury Manor, there is nothing wrong. "
