No one thought that King of Andara would issue such an order, so the nobles with good intentions once again brought up the unorthodoxy of Adams.
"After Crown Prince Hernan became a heretic, King of the Andara Kingdom should be McPherson·King of Andara."
Obviously, this is a noble with position the Church. Regarding this, several nobles in the empire cut off trade relations with each other. Now, the nobles no longer dare to speak out openly.
"Praise the light."
Andara Kingdom King said proudly. As the imperial people entered the kingdom to build kingdoms Church of Light and Magic Academy, his confidence suddenly increased.
Ryan cannot comment on these behaviors of Adams. Whether it is good or bad will probably have to wait until later.
In front of him, Mage Lula was thinking about what kind of materials his Mage Tower needed, and finally concluded that there is no standard for magic materials, and you can only know it after seeing it in person.
"Levitation Stone is necessary. It can save the consumption of floating magic and Magic Power, freeing up space for other magics. However, the reserve of Levitation Stone is not enough, and a batch needs to be ordered."
"Magic Academy There must be a way to do this. I will buy it from the demons Mages through Grand Mage Macken."
"A list of the remaining materials will be sent over. Those merchants have such methods. It is said that magic materials are all illusory images, and some magic Mages will even leave their own experimental processes to ensure the stability of the magic materials."
In the same way, Ryan also went to find Grand Mage Macken, but Grand Mage Macken had already thrown over a list before he opened his mouth.
Also, this Magic Academy Grand Mage, who has a well-established career, all he needs now is his own exclusive Mage Tower. His understanding of magic materials is much clearer than Ryan.
"A total of 670,000 Gold Coin."
Ryan looked at the list and the price that was almost impossible to reduce and nodded, which made Grand Mage Macken curious.
"How much did you earn from going to the Kingdom? This is 670,000 Gold Coin. The actual cost may be more than 700,000."
"Not much, more than two million Gold Coin worth, of which three or four hundred thousand cannot be converted into Gold Coin."
Ryan also laughed after finishing speaking.
"And who said that six to seven hundred thousand Gold Coin needs to be paid in one lump sum?"
Grand Mage Macken was suspicious and said:
"Those demons Mages can't make you pay."
"I trust your judgment, but what if they owe me a debt."
"This is a rare opportunity."
Frozen Earth Territory's economic development needs to focus on volume and the low-end route at the beginning.
But in the final analysis, you still need to reach the high-end market, especially the extraordinary market, that is the real huge profit.
The Mage Tower needed by Mage Luna and Grand Mage Macken is the stepping stone for Ryan to enter the extraordinary field market.
First of all, Mage Tower's materials show that the tickets in Ryan's hands are at least two Grand Mages, which is enough to be recognized by the magic Magess.
Secondly, having tickets means that Ryan needs them, but do they not need Ryan?
The extraordinary also needs the help of mortals. If it is just a mortal, then the extraordinary will be superior, but if it is a powerful noble who rules the mortals, then it is an equal deal.
Transactions will generate benefits.
Benefits will bring unexpected results to Ryan.
Not long after, Rose also came. This Saint Realm Alchemist needed less things than Ryan imagined.
"Alchemist will not trust other people's crops. We prefer that everything be created by ourselves."
After Rose finished speaking, Ryan also understood why the things he needed on his list were basic tools, such as crucibles.
"By the way, the things you asked me to research before that can be controlled or even manufactured by ordinary people are also somewhat promising."
Rose said, and then took out a piece of paper with a drawing similar to a wood chipper.
"This is..."
"The energy consumption used to cut down trees is currently gold."
"Gold?"
Ryan opened his eyes wide. It was the first time he heard that gold could also be used as energy?
"Well, gold is one of the best substances for guiding Magic Power. The tools you want that are purely used by ordinary people cannot yet fully appear. I can only use alchemical methods to combine them to make gold an energy source. But essentially, the role of gold is to absorb and guide Magic Factor in the void, thereby generating mechanical-like power."
"Can't it be simpler?"
Rose shook his head.
"There is no way to make it simple. Pure mechanical power is a waste of energy and it is better to just use an ax to chop down the tree."
"But if there are higher research results in the future, maybe the gold can be replaced with something cheaper."
"It's also very troublesome to make. There are probably only one or two people in Frozen Earth Territory who can create such a creation."
Needless to say, we all know who they are. Frozen Earth Territory There is no one whose craftsmanship can surpass the Brock brother and sister.
Ryan can only give up. In this extraordinary world and extraordinary methods, there is always something that makes his eyes shine.
"I will also send people to find new energy sources for you."
Three extraordinary people in high positions made Ryan lose most of the wealth he earned in one go, and also made him understand that war is definitely not the best way to obtain wealth.
Soon after, Rose left and returned again. Behind him was a tall skeleton puppet holding a dozen dry corpses.
"They were found outside the territory. I think they are targeting you."
Ryan nodded, he had destroyed the Church's foundation in the Andara Kingdom. With the Church's temper, he would definitely find a way to assassinate him. After all, even a Marquis was killed by them.
"It seems that Frozen Earth Territory's defense needs to be strengthened."
On the streets of Frozen Earth Territory, with the arrival of spring and the return of the lord from the distant kingdom, Frozen Earth Territory became a lot more lively, the taverns were overcrowded, and the market was also filled with a large number of pedestrians.
Parker Followed behind the old captain who was said to have retired from the battlefield, a group of five people stepped on the gray stone street. The ground under their feet was very solid, and there were people cleaning it in the early morning, so they didn't have to worry about the mud.
Wearing leather armor and holding spears, the five-man team walked in a line on the street. Everyone who saw them turned to both sides to avoid them, lowering their heads in envy and awe. This feeling of superiority made Parker intoxicated, and he couldn't help but hope for a better status.
As the son of a commoner, Parker is still a little smart. For example, he knows that if he wants a higher status, the old captain in front of him is his only noble person.
Although he is called the old captain, in fact, the captain is not old at all. He is only five or six years older than Parker.
The group of people walked silently through two streets, and finally returned to their station, a slightly imposing three-story stone building. There were fifty police officers in the zigzag building, responsible for the affairs of the five to six thousand people in the surrounding streets.
"Well, the morning's mission is finally over."
A patrol lasts two hours, and Parker needs to go through three patrols every day. Today's patrol is the same as yesterday, and maybe it will be the same tomorrow. Nothing major happens on the streets, and the noisy residents are not under their control. As long as no bloody conflicts break out, the consul will solve the trouble.
The work at the security station is relatively easy. When you go out, you also receive the awe-inspiring looks of others. The extra time is either spent on training or on the way to the pub.
Training is necessary for peace officers, and the tavern is to show one's status in front of others and make others admire and agree with them.
But Parker didn't go to the tavern very often, which made his old captain look down on him.
As a veteran who retired from the battlefield, Amy is not depressed, so he has high requirements for his team members.
"If you want to be a peace officer for the rest of your life and receive a salary of one silver coin and fifty copper coins every month, then get out of my team."
"Because you have no chance to become a captain and get a salary of three silver coins and one hundred copper coins. This position is reserved for the soldiers who follow the lord."
Parker listened very carefully. He knew that although the old captain was strict, what he said was really useful and hit the point.
"If you want to live in a better house and marry a better woman, your only chance is to pass the Sheriff's examination and become a patrol guard. Guards are already qualified to directly serve the distinguished Lord Baron Ryan. If you are good enough and stand out among the guards and become Apprentice Knight, then you will have the opportunity to become Knight Retainer of Lord Ryan."
"At that time, you will be a noble knight. Your monthly income of ten silver coins is the wealth you can get by being a sheriff for one year."
Parker listened intoxicated. The old captain also told them that ten silver coins were only the basis. After becoming Knight Retainer, there would be many opportunities to gain wealth.
He even took out his own Knight's Greatsword, which was given to him by the lord as a reward for his performance in the war.
"I originally had a pair of armor, but I couldn't wear it anymore, so I kept it at home."
When everyone else went to rest, Parker came to the old captain again and asked for advice on how to become Lord Ryan's attendant.
"There are two opportunities. One opportunity is when the war breaks out. You join the army as a reserve and see if your performance allows you to stay."
"The second opportunity is much more ordinary. It only takes three to five years to complete the quickest one, but the work of the police station can make you one of the quickest."
"Take time to exercise every day, keep your body strong, and adapt to the cold winter without getting sick. When the time comes, I can recommend it and you will naturally enter the guard camp."
"If everything goes well, you won't be in the guard camp for too long. It will take almost a year to pass the assessment and enter the attendant camp. There will be Knight Retainer's reserve. When Lord Ryan accepts your oath of loyalty, you will become the real Knight Retainer."
The status and treatment of the police station are good. In just two steps, an ordinary police officer can become one of the top three in Frozen Earth Territory.
The first circle is the only one, that is the distinguished Lord Baron Ryan.
The second circle is Lord Ryan's followers, including those extraordinary demons Mages and knights, as well as those Lordship in the territory.
The third circle is Knight Retainers.
At noon, Parker couldn't fall asleep and kept sweating. Other colleagues looked envious and said they couldn't do it.
In the afternoon, they need to continue patrolling. They tidy up their appearance, put on their leather armors, and follow the old captain through the streets with spears in hand.
Everyone around them will avoid them when they see them. There is no difference from yesterday, and there is no difference from the day before yesterday.
Parker enjoyed such treatment, but the next moment, the old captain led them out of the center of the road and stood quietly on the side. Parker, with his back to the pedestrians behind him, could also see who was occupying the center of the street.
Pfft~
He needed to look up to the tall Northern Warhorse, not to mention the knight riding on a war horse, his armor shining in the sun.
Parker's breathing stopped. At this moment, he understood what ordinary people felt when they looked at him. No, it was a hundred times worse than that, because even when he was looking at the tall war horse and not looking at the majestic knight, he felt that he was infinitely close to the edge of death.
He sadly discovered that he might not even be able to beat this horse.
There were ten people in the group, ten fully armed knights. Their faces could not be seen due to the cold visors. The gentle collision of the skirts of the armor drowned out the noisy people on the street. It was not until they left for a long time that the people on the street seemed to have ended the process of being frozen and numbly started to move again.
Some people were discussing how majestic the knight just now was, and imagining what they would do if they were them.
Some people are also curious about why the knights will appear today. They usually patrol the streets near Rhino Horn Mountain. Today does not seem to be the time for the knights to patrol this area.
"It's General Mikaela."
It was the first time Parker saw his old captain showing such a fiery look. He knew the knight, which was why Parker thought the old captain would be his noble man. The other party retired from the army. He knew Frozen Earth Territory many big shots, even if those big shots might not know him at all.
Moreover, the general in the old captain's words also made Parker stiff and numb at this moment.
"Brother Amy, are you talking about being able to command a thousand Knight Retainer to get the general rank granted by Lord Ryan?"
He asked in shock, as if it was hard to believe that he would see such a person on the streets he was patrolling.
"Of course, Lord Mikaela is Frozen Earth Territory's first general and also the deputy of Commander Brandt Legion. After the war, Lord Ryan personally asked Master Brock to forge a series of equipment such as armor and weapons for him, but Master Brock probably hasn't finished it yet."
"I said before, if you become Knight Retainer in the end, but you become Knight Retainer, you will have a captain of ten and a centurion above you. Above the centurion, you will be the general."
"Lord Mikaela is a powerful Silver Knight. He won Zhuoyue's military exploits in the kingdom's war. I followed him at the beginning."
Amy said enthusiastically:
"Those military exploits may even turn Mikaela into Golden Knight."
There were crowds of people ahead. Parker They ran over to maintain law and order. Although they said it was to keep pedestrians in order, in fact, they also wanted to drive away other people and see what was happening in front.
Standing at the front of the crowd, they could no longer move forward, because the guards wearing armor stood in front of them with chills, and a well-dressed political officer was explaining to everyone what was recorded on the posted paper.
"The noble lord, Lord Baron Ryan, is going to recruit a team of three hundred people to walk on the land of the kingdom and empire in the name of Frozen Earth Territory, requesting..."
This afternoon, Parker couldn't get a good rest either. He felt that the opportunity mentioned by the old captain had come.
"Perhaps this is indeed an opportunity."
The old captain said this, allowing Parker to make a decision.
"It's just... there are only 300 people, and there are only 50 members of the escort team."
Parker hesitated, he might not be able to compete.
Amy patted his shoulder.
"I still have some connections up there. Now that you have decided, I will definitely let you in."
The night patrol, which is also the last patrol of the day, is more intense than during the day.
Patrolling during the day is their time to show off their power, but at night, I recently heard that an assassin entered Frozen Earth Territory and actually wanted to assassinate the distinguished Lord Ryan. The adults from the security station angrily canceled everyone's vacation. Whenever night comes, everyone from the security station will appear on the streets looking for any sneaky guys.
"Stop!"
Parker shouted loudly. He knew that he was mediocre. Although the old captain helped him, he couldn't be too mediocre. He needed credit.
He rushed out and forced the black shadow in front of him to hide in an alley. This alley was originally used as a ditch and could only allow one person to pass sideways. Parker was a little nervous. The dimly lit world made it difficult for him to see what was inside.
At the critical moment, the old captain, who was still more perceptive, was already standing on the other side of the alley, shouting at the people inside to come out.
"Someone dares to sneak around Frozen Earth Territory."
The people in the alley were a little nervous. Finally, after other people gathered around them, they couldn't help but come out and kneel on the ground.
"Wright?"
The old captain was surprised. He recognized who this person was.
Then he said sharply:
"Why are you sneaking around at night?"
He scolded, but Wright hesitated before speaking out.
"I'm here to find Fox."
"What exactly do you want to do?"
The old captain's voice was filled with murderous intent.
Because he knew the identity of the person in front of him, and also knew the identity of Fox in his mouth.
They have the same origin, that is, they are Kingdom people who were drafted into adulthood during the Kingdom War.
"I... we just want to bring our family over."
In the process of recruiting young men, of course women, children and the elderly will not be allowed to join the army. These young men and women are the important labor force and the breadwinner of the family. After coming to Frozen Earth Territory, they miss their families.
