Volume 1, The World of Wizards Chapter 60, The Return
Ian had always thought that since the earl was a noble, he should have a lot of good things in his secret treasury. Coupled with the large number of soldiers at his disposal, the collection should be even richer, but this was a huge disappointment to him.
The so-called secret vault is nothing more than a plywood secret room. The space inside is extremely small and cannot hold many things, but when the two of them walked in, Ian saw that it was still very empty.
Seeing Ian's expression, Fan knew what he was thinking, so he explained: "The family's expenses are huge, and there is basically no good things left. These magic stones and spells were all obtained by the master at a high price.
In order to maintain this family, it is not easy for me."
Faced with Fan's excuse for Arlin Hyde, Ian remained silent, walked straight to the place where the magic stones and magic spells were placed, picked up the bag and asked, "Is this all?"
When Fan nodded, he picked it up and put it in his arms. Then he looked at other things and found nothing that could be used, so he turned around and left without stopping.
The count collected not many magic stones, but there were ten. Although Ian didn't know the market price, he must be worth a lot. These fourth-level magic stones were enough for him to practice for more than three months, and they would greatly improve his mental strength.
few.
In the main plane, there are countless alchemical potions that can increase the energy in the wizard's body, improve the physical condition, and accelerate absorption; but in terms of increasing mental power, the magic stone is the only known item in the entire plane. It can be seen from this that
It is precious. It has always been controlled by the Wizards' Union and is basically not spread outside except for supplying it to major monasteries. The Earl probably paid a lot for these things.
The magic spells also inspired him. The Earl collected two spells, namely Bone Shield and Red Ant Acid Mist. It is probably because Ian studied at the Hydrarian Monastery, he collected all dark magic.
, just right for Ian.
Let’s talk about the bone shield technique first. As the name suggests, the wizard uses negative energy to create a shield to resist attacks. The material of this shield tends to be the bones of the undead, which is particularly hard. In addition, the spell is very short, and it is an excellent defense method. Once Ian gets started,
Just fell in love with it.
Red ant acid mist is a magic that changes the environment. The wizard uses negative energy to create a gray mist that can corrode mental power. It is spread around during battle. It can block the enemy's sight and consume his mental power. It is equally powerful.
.
However, the disadvantage is that the range is also large. The lower the concentration, the worse the corrosion effect.
But for Ian, this is enough. So he has been practicing in his room, trying to master these two magic spells as soon as possible.
Originally, he planned to use these five days to digest the witchcraft mixture, but in the past few days, people kept disturbing him, whether it was Warren, the Earl, or Faun. As a result, he really had no time to take it, so he had to wait until he returned to Norton Mountain.
Let’s talk about it later.
Five days later, Prescott came to visit again. The Earl was not at the house that day. He had gone to the Knights' headquarters the day before, saying that he had official business to deal with there.
So only Enya came to see her off, and Varun was also there.
Enya's outfit today is in line with the image of a noble girl, noble yet cute. Compared with the petite armor she wore that day, she is a little less heroic, but Ian still likes this outfit more. In his opinion, the little girl is very important.
What heroic spirit.
He touched Enya's head. Over the past few days, Enya no longer objected to his action: "That armor is too ugly. It doesn't suit you at all. I have asked Grandpa Fann to have someone give it to you again."
Make one, I believe that one will look good."
Ian was talking about the two pieces of meteorite. He originally planned to make a pair of armor or weapons by himself, but after seeing Enya, he changed his mind and asked Fawn to send someone to make one for Enya.
According to Earl Hyde's military style, he felt it was necessary to strengthen Enya's equipment. God knows what tasks the old guy would ask Enya to perform. And as a wizard, if he wore a suit of armor in the future, he would probably be laughed out of his peers.
, it was a shame to become a wizard, and based on these two reasons, he gave up.
Enya faced Ian's gentle instructions. Although she was still not used to it, she did not show any resistance. She just looked directly at him until Ian finished speaking. Although there was no verbal reply, the young
She also knew that Ian was caring about her, so she nodded lightly as an answer.
In response to this, Ian could only laugh silently, then turned around and said to Warren: "In the future, when I am away, you must protect Enya well."
He looked into Valen's eyes and said with rare sincerity: "This is not an order from a young master to a soldier, but a request from a friend to another friend. Do you understand, Xiao Wa!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at him, especially Prescott and the Cavaliers behind him.
Warren also didn't expect that Ian would say these words in public, and his eyes couldn't help but turn red when he was stunned. The hierarchy of this era was extremely harsh. Even though the two of them had a good relationship in private, he still couldn't rely on himself in public.
This kind of relationship is arrogant, and there is a natural gap between the common people and the nobles that cannot be bridged.
Ian said this in public, which was obviously not hypocritical, which moved him deeply. But he glanced at Scott, quickly came back to his senses, and said in panic: "Master, you are joking, how can I be qualified to talk to you?"
As friends, please take back what you just said."
After saying that, he grinned again and said: "Besides, I will go on the road with you, so I am destined to be unable to fulfill your instructions."
"What do you mean, "Let's go on the road together?" Ian was puzzled.
Warren chuckled and said: "This is the count's order. I have led a small team to break away from the Knights. From now on, we will be loyal to you as your personal guard."
"Why?" Ian asked.
Warren scratched his head. He had been confused when he received the order the day before yesterday, but he quickly understood that this was an arrangement made by the earl to protect Ian. He touched Dou Jing in his arms again, shrugged and said, "Maybe
Your Majesty, the Earl, must be afraid that you have no one to command, haha, I can be with the young master again from now on."
As he spoke, he waved his fist excitedly, as if he could go back to the old days. High salary and low risk. It was really a nostalgic time.
Ahem, that's not the case, I'm here to protect the young master's safety...
Ian looked at Warren's excitement and couldn't bear to tell him that outsiders were not allowed to enter Norton Mountain. Even if they wanted to be stationed in the nearest town of Avon, they would need the approval of the local autonomous council, otherwise they would have to camp in the wilderness.
Furthermore, since they are separated from the Knights and far away from Yorkshire, there is a high probability that they will have to deal with the logistics and supplies themselves.
The earl only considered that he needed protection, but did not care about it. He didn't know whether he was cheating his son or trying to test him. But in any case, before Ian could take action to solve these problems, Warren and the others had to rely on themselves, so
This was not the good day Valen had in mind.
He was about to explain a few words when Prescott suddenly said, "Let's go, don't delay any longer!"
By this time the sun had risen and it was getting late.
"Enya, goodbye, don't forget brother."
Ian waved and followed Prescott away. A group of ten well-equipped cavalry waited silently outside the gate.
He didn't say anything when he saw them coming out. He just followed a few people quietly and soon left Laicheng behind.
