Richard, who had already accumulated several combat experiences, was directly promoted to level 4 after returning to the Great Stone Castle Council Hall to submit the mission award.
…
Richard: Human race
Level:4(560/8000)
Strength:9.8
Physique:9.9
Agility:10.1
Spirit:3.6
Skills: Beast Breathing Technique (Grandmaster) is already at the highest level, General Air Entrainment Technique (Elementary) can be improved, Offensive Technique (Elementary) can be improved
After the upgrade, Richard's physical fitness has improved slightly. If this momentum continues, maybe after a few more levels, Richard will be able to fight against knight-level experts with his physical body alone.
As for the skill point that came with the upgrade, Richard thought about it for a while and then allocated it to offensive techniques.
Offensive Technique (Intermediate Level): Increase the attack power of your soldiers by 20%.
Intermediate offensive skills have a more obvious improvement on the units of the subordinate system, and the combat effectiveness of the subordinates has been greatly improved.
In addition to experience rewards, there are also rewards for choosing between resources and troops.
At present, Richard has no shortage of wood and stone that are urgently needed for the development of the human castle. However, Richard still gives priority to military unit rewards that can strengthen his strength.
"Congratulations on getting: Royal Griffin (5), Lancer (15), Archer (10)"
Soldiers appeared in front of Richard one after another, and several royal griffons even rushed to Richard and pushed aside the first six griffons.
Richard stretched out his hand and stroked the snow-white wings of the royal griffins. After careful observation, he found that these royal griffons were larger than the previous griffons, with a body length of nearly 4 meters, almost the same as a forest giant bear, although not as strong as a giant bear.
But its advantage of being able to fly makes it more powerful in attack. Under the dive, ordinary quasi-knights may not be able to survive.
It's a pity that there are not many crusaders. If there are more knights, I can have more initiative in the next thing. Richard thought a little greedily.
Having tasted the sweetness, Richard opened the meeting hall again and prepared to receive new tasks.
"Destroy the ogre(50)"
Rewards for completing tasks:
1. Reward experience 3000
2. Reward random resources or troops
"There are always some terrifying figures wandering in the dense forest. For the safety of the territory, we must eliminate them."
After taking this task, Richard felt a little bit troubled for a while. There were very few ogres in the Hunter Territory. In so many years, Richard had only seen one ogre who was separated from the tribe appear in the Iron Wood Forest. At that time, it was
Father Sauter personally took action to solve the problem. These ogres usually live in dense forests, and it is difficult to search directly in the air with griffons like the snow pirates were found this time.
And these guys are not easy to deal with. Adult ogres are generally three meters tall, and their arms are thicker than human waists. Any adult male ogre is five or six times stronger than a human, and is as strong as a peak accuracy.
If you are a knight, you will pick up a log and smash it when fighting. If you are a knight, no matter if you are in plate armor or chain mail, you will die from internal injuries if you get hit by it.
To sum up, this mission is hard to find, but once you find it, you can't easily defeat it.
Forget it, this task has to be postponed. It must be done. Not to mention the rich experience rewards, this council has not given up the task option. You must complete the tasks one by one. If you don't do it, there will be no new tasks.
Richard planned to search for traces of the ogres first, and then it would be much easier to complete this task when the Crusader camp was built and he had a dozen or so knight-level forces.
Otherwise, it would not be worthwhile to forcefully fight the ogre tribe now and risk the lives of ordinary soldiers.
After several days of delay in the Stone Fortress, Richard had completed the basic management arrangements and assigned some experienced officials to the newly occupied territory. Fortunately, Richard had begun to deliberately train grassroots officials a long time ago, and now he has annexed Wei.
You can also arrange enough officials for management to prevent long-term chaos.
"Quil, get your troops in order and prepare to return to Ironwood City."
"yes"
Quill, who led the city guards to stabilize the village and declare his sovereignty, finally returned to Stone Fortress. After a few days of delay, Richard was also ready to return to Ironwood City. After the war, he had to deal with some important matters in person.
In Richard's plan, the Stone Fortress will be completely used as a military fortress in the future, and there will no longer be civilians. After all, it is related to the secrets of the system. In the future, only soldiers produced by the system will be left. Ironwood City will serve as the center of the two territories.
Administrative and economic center.
…
Richard rode at the front of the team, followed closely by Quill and Ron, followed by more than two hundred city guard soldiers.
The snow along the road has melted away, and the remaining traces of snow can no longer cover up the abundant spring feeling. The grass and trees have begun to grow, and life is slowly returning to this land.
Some people have begun to cultivate the farmland along the way, but in the past, the villagers led by Will would stay away from the army led by Richard. Richard did not care. People's hearts need to be accumulated slowly. He is confident that his
His ability to rule is stronger than most nobles in this world.
Looking back, Richard gave instructions to Quill
"Quil, give me an order not to step on the farmland. Anyone who disobeys the order will be severely punished."
"Yes" Sometimes, Quill, the silent officer, is like a robot who answers "yes".
After giving the order, Richard leaned over and gently stroked the horse's mane. He murmured in its ear.
"If you dare to make me embarrassed like Boss Cao today, I will stew horse meat tonight."
Fortunately, the horses were not frightened, and the team successfully reached the Xiaoling River, crossed the river, and returned to Hunter Territory.
More than ten days had passed since the battle on the Xiaoling River. The traces of the war were no longer obvious. The ice on the Xiaoling River had melted and turned into gurgling water. The team had to take a detour and cross a stone bridge to return.
Back in the Hunter Territory, the mood of the soldiers was obviously a little higher. Some farmers they encountered on the road no longer avoided the army, but some waved hello from a distance.
Richard didn't care. The Will Territory also copied the Hunter Territory's management methods. In a few years, the Will Family would become history completely, and there would no longer be any obvious difference between the two territories.
After entering Hunter Territory, the soldiers obviously accelerated their marching pace without Richard urging them. Returning home was always a pleasant experience.
The team returned to Ironwood City at noon on the second day, and Richard, who had arranged the team, returned to Ironwood Castle.
"Master, the Viscount is waiting for you in the garden and wants you to go see him." As soon as he returned to the castle, the butler came up to him and sent a message to Richard.
"Um"
Richard walked towards the garden. On the way, he could feel that the servants were in a good mood. It was probably Viscount Sauter who was handing out rewards to celebrate the victory.
"Father."
Richard came to the garden and saw Viscount Sauter sitting on a chair, drinking something, looking a little haggard.
"Son, you are finally back. Part of the reward has been released. You can discuss the rest with the butler."
Viscount Sauter was forced to manage the territory during Richard's absence. The complicated management work was simply a kind of torture for Viscount Sauter. If he were an ancient emperor, he would definitely be a weak emperor who did not do his job properly.
"Yes, I will take care of it next." Richard also knew Viscount Sauter's temperament. It would be okay to let him lead troops in war, but let him manage government affairs. He would be visibly worried until his hair went bald.
"Richard, what are you going to do, Will?" Viscount Sauter suddenly asked in a serious tone, changing his previous joking tone.
"I have thought about this issue before."
"Um?"
"The female members of the Will family are now settled in Ironwood City."
"Ron does not have a surname. From now on, he will be called Hunter Ron. He is your illegitimate son who lived abroad in his early years."
Viscount Sauter:......
While wandering around the city, Ron's ears got angry for no apparent reason. Ron covered his ears and was a little confused.
