"I think we can agree to Golden City's request, but we need to reconsider the remuneration!"
"The Blood Hand Gang's power continues to expand, and it may also be troublesome for Kaiyuan City in the future. There is nothing wrong with clearing out the wild dogs in the wilderness before winter comes." Pariste looked cunning and sneered: "
However, since Golden City took the initiative to make the request this time, I believe that those timid businessmen will definitely be willing to pay a sufficient price!"
Enzo thought in his mind and pondered for a moment.
"How many cavalry are needed to wipe out the Bloody Hands?" Enzo raised his head and looked at Pariste and asked.
"To deal with those wandering wild dogs, only 500 cavalry and a knight leader are enough!" Pariste said confidently and in a relaxed tone: "Although the Bloody Hand Gang has expanded its power to a thousand people, without training,
The rabble will be shattered into pieces in just one charge."
Enzo couldn't deny it and nodded slightly.
Just as Pariste said, although the gangs that gathered in the wilderness in a short period of time were large in number, due to lack of equipment and the absence of high-level knights, they were completely vulnerable to the iron hoofs of the cavalry.
"In this case, then agree to Golden City's request."
"Assemble 300 cavalry from Kaiyuan City, and then transfer 100 cavalry from Wildfire Town and Lighthouse Town. The Wildfire Town knight 'Clarence' will serve as the commander and prepare to attack the Blood Hand Gang!" After Enzo decided, he ordered
.
Wildfire Town and Lighthouse Town are both small towns within the influence of Kaiyuan City, and each has a knight and about 600 soldiers to guard them.
The crusade against the Blood Hand Gang requires 500 cavalry. If they are all recruited from Kaiyuan City, it will inevitably weaken the defense force in the city. Based on his own ideas, Enzo decided to draw 100 cavalry from each of the two towns to assemble the army in the most cautious way.
"As you wish, Master." Pariste bowed slightly, then turned and left.
Now that he decided to crusade against the Bloody Hand Gang, Pariste, under Enzo's instruction, renegotiated the issue of remuneration with the Golden City.
After a war of words, the Golden City merchants expressed their willingness to pay Kaiyuan enough food to survive the winter, and added 5,000 gold coins as a reward on top of the original price. Enzo readily agreed, and then ordered Paris to assemble the army.
The 300 soldiers in Kaiyuan City were quickly ready to go, and soldiers recruited from Wildfire Town and Lighthouse Town also arrived in the following days.
Wildfire Town Knight 'Clarence', as a veteran knight, has trustworthy combat capabilities and sufficient loyalty to Kaiyuan City. Under Enzo's appointment, he served as the commander of the crusade mission and led the army into the wilderness the next day.
, launched a crusade against the Bloody Hand Gang!
In the blink of an eye, twenty days passed.
Late at night, inside the castle.
The firelight in the fireplace danced slowly, dispelling the coldness of the night.
The room was quiet. Enzo was sitting cross-legged on the bed, his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping. The light spots visible to the naked eye around him were beating like elves, slowly rotating and gradually disappearing into his body.
Enzo's eyelids rolled, and then he opened his eyes.
"Chip, how long have I been meditating this time?" Enzo asked in his heart as soon as he opened his eyes.
"Duration of this meditation: 4 hours and 21 minutes."
"Very good, this meditation lasted for another 12 minutes." Enzo's lips rose, satisfied, "The longer the meditative state lasts, the stronger my mental power is, and the improvement of my physical qualities.
It will improve accordingly!”
The army to conquer the Bloody Hand Gang has been out for 20 days.
During this period of time, the surroundings of Kaiyuan City were calm and nothing major happened. Enzo simply left the daily management work to Pariste, while he hid in his room and studied the wizard's inheritance in the iron box as much as possible.
After half a month, Enzo had a preliminary understanding of the wizarding civilization and thoroughly mastered the "Ancient Memory" meditation method.
In the process of continuous practice, Enzo can clearly feel that his mental power is getting stronger and stronger, and his body begins to gradually produce "magic power". Only when the accumulation of this "magic power" reaches a certain level can Enzo learn the simplest zero skills.
Ring witchcraft.
According to the records in "Basic Introduction to Wizard Apprentices", before becoming an official wizard, those who possess magical powers are called wizard apprentices.
The levels of wizard apprentices are divided into first-level apprentices, second-level apprentices, and third-level apprentices.
The improvement in level means strong mental power. Only when the magic power in the body is enough to release zero-ring witchcraft can one be considered to enter the category of first-level apprentice. People without wizard talent will not be able to become a first-level apprentice in their lifetime.
Enzo didn't know what his talent was, but every time he meditated, he could feel the magic growing in his body.
"The release of witchcraft lies in the arrangement of runes. The more magic power is in the body, the more runes can be constructed." Enzo's eyes flickered and he thought, "My current magic power is enough to build 5 runes at the same time, but
If you want to learn zero-ring witchcraft, you need at least 7 runes!"
"With my current mental strength, I can enter a meditative state for more than 4 hours a day, and for every hour of meditation, the magic power generated in my body is approximately equal to one-tenth of the runes required."
"At this rate, in about 5 days, I will have the magic power to build 7 runes."
"At that time, you can officially learn zero-ring witchcraft!"
Enzo's expression was complicated, and he exhaled slowly, his eyes couldn't help but look at the mahogany square table not far away, on which three purple crystals were quietly placed, which were dim and dull, but had a fantasy texture.
Through "Introduction to the Basics of the Wizard's Apprentice", Enzo already knows the origin and use of purple crystals.
That is a fantasy item called a 'witchcraft model'.
When a wizard apprentice wants to learn witchcraft, the simplest way is to use a 'witchcraft model'. As long as magic is injected into it, the witchcraft model will arrange the witchcraft runes sealed inside in the most intuitive way.
The status is presented until the user fully understands it.
The witchcraft contained in these three witchcraft models are: Shadow Stealth, Shadow Spear, and Death Awakening.
Although these three kinds of witchcraft all belong to the zero-level witchcraft of the shadow system, they are very different in the difficulty of practice. The simplest shadow stealth requires mastering the changes of 7 runes before it can be released, while the spear of shadow requires 12.
Just runes.
As for the most difficult death awakening, you need to master 23 runes, and if you want to release it, you need other special conditions!
"Haste makes waste, let's take it slow." With his eyes back from the three witchcraft models, Enzo rubbed his forehead, suddenly feeling a little hungry in his belly, and couldn't help but smile slightly, "After meditating for half the night, I felt a little
I’m hungry, but luckily it’s getting daylight soon, just in time for breakfast.”
