The next day, Deepwater Harbor, King's Avenue.

“Wheel~~Wheel~”

"Da da! Da da!"

The sound of wheels rolling and the sound of strong and powerful horse hooves echoed on the road. On the wide road, a convoy was slowly sailing out of the city. It was a convoy of carriages. Each carriage was surrounded by several to dozens of clearly-clad soldiers, and these were all wizards who set out to perform their missions.

Baron Neville was indeed not much to be picky about in his work. Every wizard sent out arranged the most luxurious carriage. In addition, he also spent a lot of money to form several teams to protect them, equipped with rich material and excellent equipment, and considered everything they wanted and unexpectedly.

At this moment, one of the carriages was inside.

Heath was sitting in the carriage, reading a book called "Detailed Explanation of the History of Brittany" in his hand, and in his mind, he was recalling his conversation with Baron Neville about this mission yesterday.

It is not much different from what other apprentices have received before. This time they were also arranged to go to the nobles in Brittany to assist the nobles in managing the territory, but the nobles they need to assist are of extraordinary status. He is a duke!

You should know that there are only five people in Brittany who can hold the title of Duke, and each one is a powerful figure who occupies a high position in Guangrao.

In theory, the great nobles of this level should have been arranged to be won over by wizards of noble blood such as Diego. It is really incredible to stay here to serve them a few ordinary apprentices. Therefore, when he first learned the news from Baron Neville, Heath was stunned for a while.

But soon, Baron Neville told him the whole story of the matter "inferior".

This duke is called "Lord of Grayland". It seems that it was a serious illness some time ago, which caused the undercurrent of the entire territory to be at risk of a war, so Baron Neville did not dare to send people there—

Protecting the safety of apprentices is his primary principle as a team leader. Few of them have experienced combat training.

However, what is unexpected is that the Duke of Gray Castle miraculously survived the serious illness, and with his recovery, the situation stabilized again.

Since there is no risk of war, it is natural that the apprentices should be arranged to go there. However, now all the apprentices in the manor have been sent out, and only Heath and the others are left. Because of this, this hot commodity is cheaper to them.

"Now the manor is not in sufficient staff, so please ask the wizards for everything."

This is the original words of Baron Neville.

Close the book, Heath turned his head and looked out the window.

"It seems that I can't go back to the academy for a while!" he said with some depression.

Unlike Maden and others, Heath was not interested in cultivating power and connections. In his opinion, there was no place to stay by the nobles to eat, drink and have fun in the magic world. He had already lived enough of secular life in the past few months!

"I hope it will end soon!"

Shaking his head, Heath withdrew his gaze. It was meaningless to continue complaining at this point. Instead of wasting that time, it would be better to spend some time making up for the lessons so that he could finish the task as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, he picked up the history book in his hand and continued reading...

...

Two days later, west of Brittany, a forest outside the gray woodland.

"Look up the bonfire quickly, it will be dark soon. The blood of the beasts in the forest is not worthy of feeding my cross sword."

"You two, go to the forest and prepare something to add food."

"Build a tent! Build a tent!"

The command of the guard commander Goode echoed in the open space, and the soldiers lit bonfires under his command, set up tents, and built the camp in full swing.

Then, Goode came to the side of the carriage and knocked: "Sir, the tent has been set up, come down quickly."

Heath walked out of the carriage, looked at the camp still in a mess, and asked casually: "Is there anything I need to help?"

"unnecessary!"

After replying in a positive tone, Goode pointed to the sheepskin tent in front of him with a 'Kids' expression, saying, "We need you to do only one thing, that is, stay in the tent, you can read a book or sleep for a while until we bring the food to you."

This ups and downs made people feel that he seemed to be mocking something, but in fact it was not, but that was his nature.

This Goode was a declining nobleman. It was not until this mission that Baron Neville was invited to serve as the commander of the wizard guard. He probably felt that he had turned over. He was in high spirits along the way and fully interpreted the arrogance of the nobleman.

"Okay, go quickly."

After finishing the explanation to Heath in a hurry, Goode walked away without looking back, and did not go to help the soldiers work. He just went to an open space next to him to practice swords.

Heath frowned.

Although I know that others are not targeting him intentionally, this personality is really uncomfortable.

‘Or... find an excuse to use magic to scare him and let him know what respect is?’ In addition to personality, ignorance is also one of the main reasons why Goode is arrogant. For him, wizards and other things are just characters in the story novels, magic and so on, and he doesn’t believe in anything.

Not only him, but also the soldiers accompanying him, Heath could feel that everyone was more curious about him than Arendel's awe of the caster.

"Don't pay attention to him, everyone thinks he is a fool." At this moment, a voice sounded in Heath's ears.

It was a soldier who was carrying firewood. He looked sixteen or seventeen years old, dark skin and thin. He was very incompatible with the leather armor he was wearing and the cross sword he was carrying. He looked like a farmer and more than a soldier.

And it is true. This is Ike. Until this time he was recruited, he was just a civilian in Deepwater Port. He made a living by farming and working at the docks, because he participated in the escort mission with 20 silver coins.

Not only him, but all the soldiers in the team were born almost all, farmers, sailors and even gangsters.

You can imagine where there is no magic in the area where productivity is not available. Don’t think about well-trained established troops. Everyone works as a soldier in normal times during normal times.

Heath nodded and said, "I think I can see it."

This was the first time Eck had a close conversation with Heath since the beginning of the journey. Seeing that he was so easy to talk to, the farmer calmed down his previous slightly nervous mood.

He looked at Heath curiously and asked honestly: "May I ask...you are really a wizard, uh...I mean, do you really know magic?"

Heath smiled and said, "What do you think?"

Ike thought seriously for a while and said, "I think you should do it..."

What does it mean...

"Who... Ike! I'm slow to move some firewood. Do you want to get a few whips?" At this moment, Goode's scolding tone came from the other side.

Ike shrank his neck and said hurriedly: "Sir Wizard, the commander is angry. I think I have to leave."

"Well, go ahead and talk to you next time."

The brief conversation ended like this. Heath looked around and seemed to be some time away from eating. So he turned around and went to the tent to complete an important practice before dinner.

Construction of defense magic.

The fourth rune is also called the [Defensive Magic Rune] As the name suggests, after completing the condensation of this rune, the wizard can construct its own defensive spell, and the wizard's survival probability will be greatly improved.

I just condensed the runes some time ago, and my mental power was a little weak and it was not suitable to build a spell model, but after these days of precipitation, Heath felt that it could be almost built.

So, what kind of defensive spell should be built?

There are a lot of defensive spells stored in Heath's brain, some learned in the academy library, some drawn from other apprentices, and some learned from that black magic note... covering many categories of various departments.

After picking and choosing in your mind, eliminating insufficient conditions such as attribute discord, the scope will be narrowed to three spells, namely:

The ground system [Stealing Wall Guard], the flame system [Fire Element Shield], and the dark system [Skin Sclerosis].

The three spells have their own advantages and disadvantages. If you like them, they must be the guardian of the earth-type wall. However, considering the elemental affinity factor, he still eliminated the earth-type spells again.

Next is [Fire Elemental Shield] and [Skin Sclerosis].

These two spells come from the library and the black magic note respectively. However, the academy has not made any restrictions on defense magic. In terms of defense effects, the black magic note is similar to that in the academy textbook, and there is no gap like combat magic.

So who should I choose... I'm confused...

"Forget it, just let it go!"

After some serious thought, Heath finally established the answer.

That is—
Chapter completed!
