Chapter 14 Pocket Watch
"Wizard Apprentice... This shows that wizards are not legends, but real. [🆆🆆🆆🆂🆃♦♦♦♦🅲♦🅼]"
Herag had a desire in his heart, he wanted to become a wizard.
"Deep Blue, temporarily name the unknown radiation energy as magic."
"The naming is complete."
Based on the message on the pocket watch, Herag guessed that this unknown radiation energy was magic.
What he was wondering was why he had never learned any knowledge about wizards, but his body could absorb and store magic.
"Deep Blue, how much magic can I store in my body now."
"Full storage."
"With the current magic power as 100%, add the magic power item to the personal body data."
"Herag Merlin: Strength 0, Agility 6, Constitution 2, Spirit 5, Magic 100%."
Herag wanted to try the holy healing enchantment on the pocket watch, but he didn't know how much magic power it would consume and whether the magic power in his body was enough.
Another problem is that he has no other source of magic power for the time being.
Now the magic power in his body is used up a little bit less, and he doesn't think he can get a magic item like a pocket watch in a short time, so the magic power in his body should be used sparingly.
"Nicholas Carlos Camby..." Helag remembered the name silently.
He didn't know why the wizard's pocket watch appeared in this place, and it had existed for at least forty years, because the disappearance of the guards started forty years ago.
From Nicholas's original intention, this pocket watch should not have the face attached to it.
From Helag's point of view, the face was more like living on the pocket watch, and relying on the pocket watch to obtain a certain extraordinary power, which led to the subsequent events.
"Just now I heard that scream again, coming from the bottom of the lake, and I thought you were in trouble." Emil said.
Herag held the pocket watch and shook it a few times: "That scream is useless to me, so I dare to go down. It seems that the dirt on it is gone."
"This must be a treasure. Its value alone is already incredible. You must keep it well." Emil exclaimed.
"This thing should still hide many secrets." Herag hung the pocket watch around his neck and stuffed it into his clothes.
The two of them picked up the bones on the ground. Since they were scattered all over the ground, they couldn't tell which bone belonged to whom, so they simply buried these bones and armor together.
The five guards who had been missing for many years finally had a burial place.
It was sunrise when they finished all this. The sun peeked out from the edge of the snow-capped mountains. The sunlight instantly cut through the darkness of the pumpkin farm and dispelled all the haze.
When Herag returned to the farm, he saw Massimo standing at the door with a broken lock in his hand, cursing: "Damn you two brats! I gave you the key!"
Emile could only bow his head to apologize, and Massimo kept muttering.
"I didn't expect you to come back. Those people also disappeared in the middle of the night before, and then disappeared." Massimo looked at the two with strange eyes after he was tired of scolding.
"We have found the missing five guards." Herag said after approaching.
"Found?" Massimo was surprised.
"In the lake in the north, we have buried them in the woods by the lake." Emil said.
Massimo looked emotional, as if recalling something: "It's good to find it, it's good to find it."
...
More than half a month has passed, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the entire pumpkin farm has been covered with snow.
Looking around, it's covered in silver.
Herag walked in the mountains and forests covered with thick snow, holding a hare in his hand.
There are few animals that come out in winter, and hunting is not easy.
Emile was in a bad mood these days, and he often locked himself in the house for a whole day.
Herag knew the reason, Melissa's wedding date was coming soon.
People who love each other can't be together, such things always make people helpless.
Herag was glad that he didn't have these troubles. He just wanted to try his best to find a way to contact wizards after returning to the castle.
Since he could absorb and store magic power, it meant that he had the qualifications of a wizard.
Emile didn't have any information about wizards, so he had to go back and ask Baron Buck.
Herag thought about this and suddenly heard a movement in the distance. He stopped and listened carefully.
"Horse hoofs, there are still many people."
He immediately became alert in his heart. The direction of the sound was to the west, and the west was the territory of Behard.
Herag climbed to a high place and looked into the distance. He found that at the foot of the mountain in the distance, a team of fully armed people were riding horses and moving quickly on the mountain road.
This group of people came with great momentum. It seemed that they would soon pass through the Pumpkin Farm, and then cross the Emerald Mountains to kill the castle.
And in a few days, Melissa would get married...
After confirming the situation, he immediately returned to the farm to inform Emile. Now only he and Emile were capable of fighting in the Pumpkin Farm.
In the farm, Emile and Herag were fully armed.
"I thought Behard had given up. I'm afraid that it's not that simple for them to invade at this time." Emile said in a deep voice.
Herag brought six bags of arrows and said, "Let's go. They probably didn't expect that there would be people stationed at the Pumpkin Farm. Kill this group of people first, and then leave one alive to ask about the situation."
"Let's go!" Emile jumped on his horse with murderous intent in his eyes.
He was already in a bad mood recently, and now this group of people seemed to be going after Melissa, which made him even more angry.
Herag and Emil quickly came to the mountain pass in the west, which was the only way.
They occupied the commanding heights and fought from above.
Herag took out his fine steel bow and was ready to go.
He had returned old Henry's longbow and hung it on the wall as before.
But now he was the one who maintained the longbow because old Henry was lying in bed and it was inconvenient to move.
This fine steel bow requires a lot of force to pull it open, and its lethality and range are not comparable to wooden bows.
"A total of fourteen people, fully equipped, led by a knight-level strongman, with the armor printed with the family emblem of the Simon family." Herag counted the enemy's situation.
The armed forces of one territory entered another territory fully armed. In this case, no questions were needed because it represented a declaration of war.
When this team entered the range, Herag did not rush to shoot arrows, but let this team come in a little further to prevent them from escaping.
Seeing that it was almost time, Herag shot the first arrow.
The arrow made a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and it was extremely fast, directly piercing a man's throat. After passing through, the speed did not decrease, and the arrow pierced deeply into the tree with blood.
"There is an ambush!" The group of people did not panic, and immediately dismounted and hid in the cover.
Herag continued to pull the fine steel bow to the full. He had deep blue assistance, so hiding was useless to him. As long as the opponent was not in a blind spot, he could launch an attack.
