Chapter 9 Shadow
The sky was overcast and it was raining lightly. Ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and Sean completely took root in Greenfield Town.
Ten days was neither long nor short. With the arrival of Sean, slight changes began to occur in Greenfield Town. During this process, Sean spent most of his time except occasionally communicating with the four chief officers. All remain in the botanical garden.
In the meditation room, Sean is meditating. As a profession that requires the ability to endure loneliness, the fundamental spiritual power of a wizard requires constant meditation to increase continuously.
"The world is indeed different. Magic has become more active and easier to absorb, and this is just the prelude."
After finishing his meditation and feeling his growing spirituality, a smile appeared on Sean's lips.
After walking out of the meditation room, Sean turned his eyes and saw a shadow wearing an evil spirit mask and a black hood standing in the shadow of the corner.
"Master, we have found the Bloodhoof herd."
The voice was dry and hoarse, and the words were concise. After finishing speaking, the shadow stood there motionless like a wooden man waiting for Sean's instructions.
Hearing this, Sean did not hide his smile. This is really good news. If the domestication is successful, he can not only harvest money, but also obtain a stable source of harvesting point. You must know that after absorbing the purchased After the two rubbish rare items, he now only has a total of two source points, which is in urgent need of replenishment.
"Tell me the specific situation."
"yes."
After listening to Shadow's detailed introduction, Sean walked out of the room, and Shadow had disappeared without a trace, as if he had never appeared before.
As the shield of the core members of the Montel family, the most outstanding thing about Shadow is its ability to hide, and of course, its absolute loyalty. In addition to being brainwashed since childhood, what is more important is that the Montel family has something called the Loyalist. The strange thing of the mask, this strange thing can split into a sub-mask every once in a while. Once someone puts on the sub-mask, the sub-mask will subtly distort their beliefs.
Of course, although the Loyalist Mask is powerful, it also has limitations, the most important of which is that the sub-mask will only distort the belief of the sub-mask if worn for a long time, and this time is often more than three years.
In addition, because the wearer is affected by the Loyalist Mask and has his beliefs distorted, it is impossible to break through the fifth level. However, this shortcoming has little impact at this time, and the fifth level is a big hurdle. In addition to rich In addition to resources, talent is also very important, and not everyone can break through.
With outstanding abilities and absolute loyalty, the shadow has become the perfect tool for the Montel family. In addition to protecting the safety of family members, it is also within their scope of responsibility to handle the dirty work for their master.
A shadow is a shadow and has no name. The weakest of every shadow is the third level. Although it is only a potion system, the ability of the third level shadow hider is definitely not weak, and in the current environment, the potion system is the mainstream. .
Of course, with the rising tide of magic, the long-standing and mature wizard system and knight system will surely return. This is a destined result.
The wizard system sprouted from the Age of Ignorance, developed and expanded in the Golden Age, and reached its peak in the Silver Age and was divided into eight levels, namely the first-level gray-robed wizard, the second-level white-robed wizard, the third-level red-robed wizard, and the fourth-level great wizard. The fifth-level true spirit wizard, the sixth-level titled wizard, the seventh-level rule wizard, and the eighth-level powerful wizard. It was only during the Bronze Age that it began to gradually withdraw from the world stage and fade out of public sight.
The knight system appeared in the Golden Age and did not develop much in the Silver Age. It was not until the Bronze Age that its influence suddenly increased and gradually became the mainstream. It was divided into seven ranks, namely the first-order gray knight, the second-order white knight, and the third-order white knight. Level 4 Red Knight, Level 4 Great Knight, Level 5 Glory Knight, Level 6 Titled Knight, Level 7 Throne Knight.
The potion system has appeared since the Bronze Age. It was originally studied by wizards in order to reduce the impact of the environment and reduce the difficulty of practice.
Unfortunately, it ultimately failed. However, nothing is absolute. At the end of the Bronze Age, as the concentration of magic power further decreased, potions that were originally failures began to shine with a strange brilliance. With their low demand for magic power, low threshold, and quick success, they gradually became mainstream.
Of course, although the current potion system is the mainstream in the Black Iron Age, it has a fatal weakness, that is, the most mature potion sequence so far only reaches the fifth level, and most of them can only reach the fourth level.
If the magic tide does not revive, this weakness can be ignored based on the conditions of the Black Iron Age. However, if nothing else happens, now that the magic tide has revived, the potion system will inevitably be abandoned or supplemented as time goes by. Unless the potion system can If you make a breakthrough again, you can reach the sixth level or even the seventh level.
Leaving the botanical garden and returning to the Lord's Mansion, Sean met with Guards Officer Mons and Military Director Ferrolet in the small garden.
"Knight of Feroli, is the situation around Greenfield Town stable?"
Ferrolet was surprised to suddenly hear such a question from Sean, a lord who rarely took care of things. However, his long military life still made him stand up quickly and answer Sean's question.
"Lord, the area around Greenfield Town has been relatively stable recently except for a few wandering Cherochi people."
After hearing this, Sean nodded. The new world was different from the old world. The folk customs were fierce and many people were retired soldiers. Basically every family had weapons. Although most of them were just old-fashioned matchlock guns, they were used to It was enough to deal with the small group of Cherokee.
"Very well, Knight Ferret, you did a good job. Next, I am going to mobilize part of the army. Do you have any problems there?"
Hearing Sean's words, Ferrolet looked solemn and did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked:
"I wonder how many people the lord will deploy?"
"About twenty is about right."
"No problem, the lord can mobilize at any time."
Breathing a sigh of relief, Ferrolet gave an affirmative answer. Greenfield Town's conventional military force is mainly divided into two parts. One is the 200-man infantry brigade under his command, equipped with Lester single-shot rifles and well-trained. They have rich combat experience and strong combat effectiveness. The second is the militia patrol team. Although there are many people and more can be recruited temporarily, in addition to undergoing certain training during their service, these militiamen are out-and-out farmers, equipped with The weapons are only flintlocks and matchlocks, and their combat effectiveness is unreliable. If Sean deploys too many troops, then he will dissuade him, because that is his responsibility as the military director. Of course, he will only dissuade him, and it is Sean who makes the final decision.
After receiving Ferrolet's affirmative answer, Sean turned his eyes and looked at Mons, who was sitting by the side without moving from beginning to end.
"Lord, the Guards are at your disposal at any time."
Without hesitation or doubt, Mons clearly expressed his attitude.
