After being reminded by senior Yaqian, Reilo came to the Munitions Department.

Different from the various types of rewards in the academy Elite Rank, most of the rewards from the military department tend to be things that can immediately increase combat power, such as energy infusions, potions, military ranks, weapons, battle armor, magic guides, high-level mounts of Magical Beast bloodline, free holidays, gold coins and silver coins, etc...

"A little military merit, ten silver coins."

Recalling that students can exchange 1 Elite Rank points for 1 silver coin, Reilo couldn't help but sigh. The college has made a sure-profit deal. It only needs to borrow the grade exam to transfer a large number of students' military merits to themselves at one-tenth of the price.

Of course, in the long run, since the college Elite Rank points are cumulative in nature, they are not really about earning benefits.

However, the reason why Yaqian asked Reilo to come here is because of the Magic Props and magic potion here.

There is no doubt that the military department has assembled almost the best pharmacists in Grand Duchy!

Only the military has enough power to support pharmacists in giving full play to their talents. After thousands of years of research and accumulation, pharmacists have gradually developed a series of exclusive potions for the military. It is said that some of the materials are so special that outsiders cannot copy them at all.

The most famous potion is the body tempering agent.

The body tempering agent is a magic potion that can help soldiers temper their bodies. It has no side effects. It is said that some extremely powerful Magical Beast blood must be added to the raw materials before it can be refined. It is divided into five models. Each model can only be taken once, and the effect of repeated use is halved. Among them, the most expensive S type actually requires 10,000 military merit points, while the lowest D type requires 100 military merit points.

Of course, the military's recovery potions are also very good, but most of them are quick-acting and have certain side effects, so they are not suitable for outsiders.

Reilo The color of contemplation.

"According to Senior Sister Yaqian, if you have the opportunity, it is best to exchange your military merits for a bottle of Type D Body Tempering Agent here. If you take it yourself, the effect is quite significant. If you sell it to senior students, the value will increase several times instantly. Compared with accumulating Elite Rank points early, strength is the most important..."

The reason why Yaqian didn't talk about exchanging other potions was naturally because he thought it was impossible for Reilo to accumulate enough military merit.

"I don't know how much merit the military will give me after the investigation of the attack on the airline route is completed?"

Reilo showed some expectations.

As for whether to use military merit to enhance one's own strength as Yaqian said, or to redeem Elite Rank points, it still needs careful consideration.

Then, Reilo looked at Magic Props in the munitions department.

Different from the Magic Props in the academy, which are refined and contributed by the instructors, most of the Magic Props here are left by enemy magicians who died in the war. Because they are useless to ordinary soldiers, they become a reward from the military to attract more magicians.

"Eh? Thunder Sigh wand only costs 2,000 military merits?"

Reilo clearly remembers that student Elite Rank also had a Thunder Sigh magic wand, but it cost thirty thousand points.

Looking at the other Magic Props, if converted into gold coins, they seem to be much cheaper than the magic shop. As a result, Reilo can't help but feel a little secretly moved.

"Almost every scholar is a noble of the principality. They are indulged in travel and laboratory research all year round. Few people are willing to take the initiative to come to the fortress with difficult conditions and stay with the rude soldiers. However, scholars have the power to influence the battlefield pattern in the war. The military department can only start with resources."

Thinking of this, Reilo couldn't help but take a deep breath and look for Magic Props that he can use at this stage and has a reasonable price/performance ratio.

Flame Heart Wand/60 Military merit: Active skill 1: Release a 9-degree burning fireball, Active skill 1: Release a resistance fire ring that lasts for 3 seconds.

Dragon's Roar Wand/90 Military Merit: The magic released through the wand has an energy level of +1, and the wand's head is sealed with dragon's roar melee magic.

Cursed Robe/65 Military Merit: Energy level +2, but after being attacked by energy, the aging curse will spread to itself.

Wolf Soul Necklace/150 Military Ability: Summon a Frost Wolf to fight together.

Not to mention the ambiguity in the names of scholars and magicians in the fortress, the first two wands each have their own advantages.

The advantage of Flame Heart Wand lies in the integration of offense and defense. Reilo has already consumed a Energy Shield scroll on the road, and knows how valuable defensive skills are. The advantage of the second wand is that in addition to increasing the energy level of its own skills, the melee skills sealed on the head of the wand are equivalent to the enhanced version of its own Vibration Gloves.

As for the cursed robe, its advantages and disadvantages are very obvious. Wolf Soul Necklace can summon an elemental creature to fight together, and its value is needless to say.

In addition to these Magic Propss, which Reilo thinks are cost-effective, Reilo was also surprised to find a Magic Props that was closely related to the task he was currently performing.

Time and Space Scroll/800 Military Merit: Within a range of thirty kilometers, you can instantly return to the Furnace Fortress High Tower altar. It only works for magic apprentices/Apprentice Fighter.

Uh...

It seems that this prop is only designed for a small number of people, and its effective range is within Furnace Fortress thirty kilometers. If the magic apprentice/Apprentice knight has 800 military merit, he will definitely be there early. Just exchange it for something that strengthens yourself. How can it be exchanged for something like this? Based on Reilo's experience of the difficulty of obtaining merit, how can the magic apprentice/Apprentice knight have 800 military merit?

In other words, the person who can use this kind of scroll must have an unusual identity.

After leaving the Munitions Department, I noticed the energy fluctuations of Magic Mirror, took out Reilo from the chest, and it was Bai Xing.

"There is no mission that is particularly suitable for us to act together. What are your plans?"

The energy consumption of maintaining Magic Mirror's call was very fast. Reilo frowned and said, "My task will take ten days to complete. I don't have any plans yet."

"Hmm."

Bai Xing responded, also noticing that Magic Mirror was consuming energy very quickly, and frowned slightly.

"Magic Mirror consumes energy faster than we thought. To make a long story short. My mission requires five days of duty in the fortress, and then I have to go to a secret post to monitor for half a month. Yulia's secret mission will take three days to complete. At that time, she plans to carry out the monitoring mission with me."

Speaking of the latter, Bai Xing looked questioning.

Reilo knew that she was asking about her and Xiao Kang's plans.

Reilo pursed his lips and thought, "Xiao Kang's mission time is relatively free, but I don't think he intends to end the current mission easily. I'll talk about it then."

"That's fine."

After Bai Xing responded, the call with Magic Mirror was ended because the energy consumption was too fast.

A few days later.

Through the window of High Tower, Reilo looked at the terrifying creature flying overhead. It was shrouded in shadow and spread its wings for more than ten meters, releasing a terrifying aura that made people tremble. His heart was beating hard.

I don't know which Sky Knight's mount this is, or which powerful scholar's tamed beast it is.

"War deployments are becoming more and more frequent."

Muttering to himself, Reilo slowly sat down on the wooden chair and opened the book he carried with him.

This is another book about the moon that Reilo found after searching through thousands of things in the academy, besides "The Moon Leads Tides".

It seems that because there are so few students reading this book, this book was actually found in an inconspicuous corner on the second floor of the library by Reilo as if it were searching for rubbish.

The pages of the book are already a little yellow and shabby. It seems that without good care measures, it will completely decay in a few decades. Even the librarian frowned slightly and murmured that he would wait for Reilo to return the book and make notes, rubbings, etc.

It was in this book that a material called Moon Crystal Stone was mentioned. Two young lovers beside Reilo on the balloon airship also mentioned this extremely precious Magic Material.

According to the speculation in the book.

Moon Crystal Stone is a fragment of the moon. Because of this, we can borrow some of the moon's abilities at night!

It is said that after the weapon is integrated into Moon Crystal Stone, it will be equipped with some kind of mysterious spiritual attack, inflicting a terrifying soul curse on the enemy, and pulling the opponent's spiritual will into a dream full of loneliness and absurdity.

The enemy in reality will gradually turn into a soulless idiot because of this.

However!

In this book, regarding the use of Moon Crystal Stone, the author actually used a special tempering and extraction method to transform himself, establishing some subtle connections between himself and the moon, and developed a concealment skill to turn himself into a shadow under the moonlight, named Submerged Moon Technique.

"Submerged Moon Technique..."

In the past few days, I have read this book Reilo several times. However, every time I read this, I can't help but shake my head with regret, but deep in my eyes, I feel as if I have discovered a precious treasure.

The author of this book is undoubtedly a talented person in terms of wisdom.

However, regarding his understanding of the celestial bodies of the universe, in his subconscious, he did not realize the greatness of the macroscopic laws of the celestial bodies of the universe. He was unwilling to admit White Niven's <Heliocentric Theory>, and still believed that Star Curtain World was the center of the universe, and that the sun, moon and stars were only part of the rules of Star Curtain World.

If he believes in <Heliocentric Theory>, believes that Star Curtain World is just an ordinary one among the countless spherical celestial bodies of Cosmic Starry Sky, and believes that Cosmic Starry Sky is vast, then since he can establish a subtle connection with the moon, then the power he pursues should never be limited to this planet and his own evolution.

Instead, we try our best to deepen this connection and try to use the powerful power brought by the macroscopic laws of Cosmic Starry Sky!
