Chapter 228 The Book of Curse
There are only two ways for human scouts to turn the tables.
The first is to develop their own aerial reconnaissance force and establish aerial magic beast cavalry. For example, the Lion Duck Knights and the Wyvern Knights are high-end flying military forces.
The Kingdom of Ryan can suppress the harpy because it has developed the Lion Duck Cavalry.
The second way is to send magic beast cavalry to perform reconnaissance missions. The individual combat effectiveness of magic beast cavalry is very strong, and they are not afraid of harpy when encountering in the wild.
Although the battlefield will still be transparent to the orcs, it is difficult for the harpy to cover the battlefield and hunt the magic beast cavalry.
These two methods are difficult to do in the Harland Territory. Not to mention the formation of the Flying Knights, flying magic beasts will not appear in the trading market at all.
The Flying Magic Beast Knights are one of the most powerful combat forces in the Dawn Plane. If you want to buy flying magic beasts, the difficulty is equivalent to buying nuclear missiles in the previous life.
Moreover, the large forces in the Dawn Plane are relatively conservative and it is impossible to sell flying magic beasts to outsiders.
It is also difficult to send magic beast cavalry to perform reconnaissance missions. There are only more than 100 Warcraft Cavalry in Harland Territory, and the combat mission they undertake is very heavy. The power of Warcraft Cavalry is to concentrate their strength and defeat the enemy like a rotten wood.
If the Warcraft Cavalry is dispersed to gather intelligence, it will be difficult to concentrate in the war.
If you want the Warcraft Cavalry to perform reconnaissance missions, you must expand the number of Warcraft Cavalry.
There are about dozens of iron-horned horses in the current Warcraft breeding base in Harland Territory. Some of these iron-horned horses come from Baron Harden's territory, and some come from wild iron-horned horses captured in the Eagle Mountains.
Fifteen iron-horned horses can be drawn from the Warcraft breeding base without affecting Warcraft breeding. Richard plans to buy castrated horses from Duke Edward for the remaining shortage.
The iron-horned horse has a high IQ and is already considered an intelligent creature. Castrating intelligent creatures is a very inhumane thing.
The Warcraft Cavalry in Duke Edward's territory does not castrate iron-horned horses.
However, in order to prevent the spread of the iron-horned horses sold outside, the Warcraft Cavalry Regiment was bred to compete with itself. The iron-horned horses sold by several Warcraft breeding bases were all geldings.
Richard also hated the conservative atmosphere of the Grant Kingdom and was very troubled.
He spent three thousand gold coins to buy thirty geldings and formed forty-five Warcraft Cavalry.
Although there was a war this year, there were still more than twenty soldiers promoted to professionals from the Harland Territory Army.
These twenty new professionals were all transferred by Richard to the newly formed Warcraft Cavalry.
Most of the people in the northern border can ride horses, and the Warcraft Cavalry has a high IQ and is easier to communicate.
Richard plans to disperse the newly formed forty-five Warcraft Cavalry among the scouts.
At that time, a group of several people, with the Warcraft Cavalry as the core and ordinary scouts as the auxiliary, will be enough to resist the attack of the eagle-like people.
After forming forty-five Warcraft Cavalry, Richard also expanded two squadrons of scouts.
Richard mobilized some of the backbones from the old reconnaissance squadrons for the new scouts of the two squadrons, and the rest were selected recruits.
The two new reconnaissance squadrons need at least one or two years of training to form combat effectiveness.
The next time the orcs invade, the reconnaissance force of the Harland Territory will increase dramatically.
In November, Sophia has made new achievements in the study of magic.
Because Richard proposed the alien version of the periodic table, the magicians of the Harland Territory discovered many new elements based on the guidance of this periodic table.
With the continuous adjustment of the periodic table, there are already 48 elements recognized by humans in the Dawn Plane. In just one year, 15 new elements have been discovered in the Harland Territory.
There are not only rare gases and unknown metals, but Butler also discovered two radioactive elements.
Sophia discovered X-rays through her study of the particle theory written by Richard.
By drawing a special magic circle and using magic crystals to provide energy, Sophia invented a stable X-ray emission device.
Just when the research reached a critical point, Sophia became pregnant again.
Sophia got pregnant in June. Because it affected her magic research, Sophia was not very happy about this pregnancy and her will was a little depressed.
In August, Sophia's belly gradually showed, and the doctors confirmed that she was pregnant with a boy based on their experience.
Richard and Sophia's eldest daughter Margaret is already three and a half years old. After the Goddess' Birthday, Richard plans to send Margaret to Riverbank Primary School.
Next year will be the fifth year of Riverbank Primary School. After five years of accumulation, the teaching quality of Riverbank Primary School has gradually improved.
Starting this year, the schools in Harland Territory can steadily send primary school graduates to the territory every year.
The students of Riverbank Primary School can write and calculate, and long-term collective life has cultivated their discipline. After the fourth grade, there are history, geography and other courses.
Now the territory is full of illiterates, and such trained readers are very welcome by various departments.
After Richard and Sophia discussed, they decided that their children would be different from the tradition of the nobles and would not hire a tutor. When the children grow up, they will receive education at Riverbank Primary School, so that they can get in touch with the grassroots from an early age.
The principal of Riverbank Primary School is Margaret's cousin Flora, who will certainly take care of Margaret at school.
Moreover, Richard will send guards to protect Margaret's safety.
Riverbank Primary School is just outside the walls of Fort William, very close to the city lord's mansion.
Studying at Riverbank Primary School is safe enough.
Margaret was very smart since she was young, but her childhood was lonely.
In the city lord's mansion, Margaret had no peers. Richard and Sophia were very busy every day and did not have much time to accompany the child.
Because of the lack of communication with her parents, Margaret was obviously closest to Anne, who had taken care of her since she was a child.
Children are very innocent and what they need most is companionship. But for most ordinary people, even accompanying their children is a luxury.
Richard has seen some babies who were not taken care of by anyone, bitten to death by cats and dogs, bitten to death by snakes, eaten by wild beasts, and some fell to death or drowned.
Most of the parents of these babies are indentured servants who need to undertake heavy work and have no time to care for their children.
Grant's territory is not the earth, where mothers can take maternity leave and have time to take care of their children.
Pregnant indentured servants in the territory have to go to work a few days before giving birth. Many women give birth to their children in farmland, in the wild, and on construction sites.
Compared with ordinary people at the bottom, Margaret was already a winner in life when she was born.
Things in the world can never be perfect.
They got superior material conditions, but lost the company and care of their parents.
Richard felt a little guilty towards Margaret because he didn't have time to accompany his children. It was also a good thing for Margaret to go to school at Riverbank Primary School.
Richard knew that radioactive elements had radiation and were very harmful to the human body. After Sophia became pregnant, he stopped her from continuing to study radioactive elements and X-rays to prevent her from becoming the Marie Curie of the Dawn Plane.
Although Sophia stopped her research on X-rays, she started it. Other magicians were not afraid of risks and chose to continue to follow up.
Many studies on magic carry powerful energy radiation, which is dangerous in itself.
Wendy and Heath worked together to find that X-rays have extremely strong penetrability and can penetrate muscles and reveal the outline of bones.
After this discovery, Adrian from the hospital also joined in and began to study the application of X-rays.
They traced the radiation principle of X-rays and created a new one-ring magic, detecting rays.
After using this magic, X-rays can be emitted.
This new magic can be used to cure diseases and save lives immediately.
With this detection magic, the surgical level of the Harland Territory Hospital will be improved.
Especially for the treatment of bone injuries, the effect is improved very quickly.
Participating in the creation of new magic is very beneficial to Adrian. During this period, his meditation feedback was particularly good. In winter, he completed the advancement and became the seventh magician in the territory.
Adrian has been studying magic for five years, and it took five years to become a formal magician. His magic talent is obviously very ordinary, and it is difficult to be promoted to the fourth ring in his lifetime.
If it weren't for the new research results, Adrian would need to accumulate one or two years to be promoted to a formal magician.
By this winter, five middle-level apprentices in the territory had broken through. Bonova, Connie, Alice, Harrison, and Greta had been studying magic for two or three years and were successfully promoted to high-level magic apprentices.
Because the meditation method of the magic apprentices in the Death Tower was too extreme, Richard was not going to let them practice the Book of Death.
Because the understanding of the elements became deeper and deeper, Richard's understanding of the essence of magic became deeper. The Book of Fire he compiled became more and more complete and had reached the ninth level.
This fire attribute meditation method can be cultivated to the sixth ring.
A meditation method that can be cultivated to the sixth ring is a precious heritage for an earl family.
If Richard is willing to sell it to the great nobles of the Grant Kingdom, the value of this meditation method will exceed 100,000 gold coins, the same as a complete breathing method.
After the Book of Fire was deduced to the sixth ring, Richard gave up continuing to deduce the Book of Fire because he did not understand the high-level realm very well.
Instead, he studied the Book of Death to see if there was any way to improve it?
The meditation method of the Book of Death can be used all the way to the Legend.
But when it reaches the second level of Legend, the potential of this meditation method is exhausted.
The meditation method of the Book of Death is a standard meditation method for the undead faction. Using the Book of Death to meditate will absorb and refine the magic energy particles of the undead attribute.
As more and more undead magic energy particles are refined in the spiritual power space, the essence of the magician is getting closer and closer to the undead creature.
The soul of the legendary undead mage has also undergone serious mutations and can no longer be considered a human being.
Through research, Richard found that curse magic particles are closest to undead magic particles.
However, there are still many problems in converting two meditation methods with similar attributes.
Magic particles also have special volatility and are very exclusive.
Switching to meditation is very dangerous.
However, many magic apprentices from the Death Tower are eager to increase their strength.
They are not afraid of risks, and are willing to switch to other meditation methods even at the cost of their lives.
Richard also wants to study the problems encountered in switching to meditation.
In November, he began to deduce the Book of Curse.
Richard is not very good at curse magic. When deducing meditation, he sought the opinions of other magicians. After many discussions, it was not until December that the deduction of the meditation method for the first three levels of the Book of Curse was completed.
After completing the deduction of the apprentice-level Book of Curse, four magic apprentices from the Death Tower took the initiative to act as pioneers and switch to the Book of Curse.
Before making the final decision, Richard finally asked for their opinions.
"If the four of you don't switch to meditation, although you won't be able to become necromancers, you can live a stable life for the rest of your life. The apprentice-level magic ability will also make your living standards and social treatment better than ordinary people. Safe and stable Steady, having a wife and having children for a lifetime is actually a happy thing. The risk of converting to meditation is very high, and people will die if you are not careful. You should consider this carefully before making the final decision. "
"Master Richard, our birth was very ordinary. I came from a serf family, and my life's fate was already determined after I was born. It was the necromancers who changed our fate. They killed my family, but they pushed me away. The door to the magic palace.
When I became a magic apprentice, at that moment I truly mastered the power, how happy I was? I don't know now whether I should be grateful to the Necromancers or resent them. Life is short. We don’t want to be mediocre all our lives, so we will become the first batch of experimenters. If we fail to transfer and die, our bodies will be handed over to the hospital for dissection and used for magical medical research. I hope that our death will contribute to the research of magic. There is promotion. "
Seeing how determined the four apprentices were, Richard felt a little moved in his heart. He turned his head and said to the other three people: "I already know Lange's thoughts. What are the opinions of the three of you? This matter is related to life and death. It is better to make a decision after careful consideration!"
"There is no need to think about it. Lange and the three of us have thought about it for a long time and are very determined. We must stand out and become respected magicians. We are not willing to live in mediocrity all our lives."
Seeing that the four people were very determined, they had already put life and death aside.
Richard immediately organized research efforts, and all the magicians in the territory put down their research and participated in the meditation method experiment.
Changing the meditation method was difficult at the beginning. The four apprentices had just changed their cultivation, and cracks appeared in their mental space.
Everyone needs to use requiem treatment every day. In addition, Richard also needs to use dreaming to enter the subconscious and correct the wrong knowledge in his thinking.
In addition, Sophia also needs to refine some potions to treat soul damage and give them to the four apprentices who have switched to meditation to treat the pain in their souls.
Although Richard and others tried their best and worked very hard during this period, only two of the four undead apprentices successfully transferred. Wild magicians rashly switch to meditation. Richard can be sure that they will not be as lucky as William, and they will definitely die without rebirth.
