City of Sin: In the 161 territory

. The Duke in Chapter 161 took the pencil, made a point on the map, and then outlined a small area and said, "I have given you the title of Pioneer Knight. You know that the title is just a piece of paper. , So that you can fight in my name. But Pioneer Knight is not a real aristocrat. For the sake of convenience in the future, I will give you a title of jazz. As for the title, the family lineage that you originally inherited is good, so that you are true You are a member of the nobility. As for the higher title, you need to fight for yourself. This place will serve as the territory of your jazz. You can first look at what needs to be added. "

Richard stood by the map, carefully watching the area outlined by the Duke.

It is a piece of land with a radius of several kilometers, covering the original Bran village, which is the junction of the three areas of Sequoia Kingdom, Turbulent Land and Bloodstained Lands. One-third of the area is mountainous, and a small river runs through the center of the territory, and the two sides of the river are fields of farmland. But what Richard values ​​more is that the main road leading to the hinterland of the kingdom passes through the edge of the territory, and in the mountains, there are signs of iron, copper, coal, and redwood trees. It seems to be ordinary deposits, but most of them are in an undeveloped or even fully explored state, and no one knows how much underground veins are. However, Richard learned a lot of mineral knowledge in the dark blue. Knowing that the depth of the ordinary vein is likely to be accompanied by some rare minerals, I hope this Plane vein also has this property. As for the Sequoia tree, it is the most famous specialty of Sequoia Kingdom, which has both toughness and hardness, and has a good fit with Mana. It can be used to make magic longbows, weapons and ships.

If this jazz collar is well developed, the quality is no worse than that of Fontaine Baron.

"Thank you for your care!" Richard said.

Direwolf Duke waved a big hand and said: "It's just a trivial matter. I also hope that you can start faster and eventually build a career here. Time is very important!"

The voice of the Duke ’s last sentence was aggravated, and Richard knew exactly what he meant. Perrin is now equivalent to a 70-year-old man. If he calculates according to the aging level of the previous five years, he will be ten years old almost every year. He cannot become a strong Saint Realm, so optimistically, it is also the most Support for only three years.

"Okay, it's not too early, Richard, you will stay one more night at Deepcliff City Fort, and we will have dinner in the evening. Just introduce some of my sons and partners to you. Now, we can talk about Rune Now. "

This time, at the request of Richard, the place to try Rune was placed in the magic lab of the Duke ’s Chief Mage. The chief mage of the Duke is an Grand Mage of Level 14, and he is particularly good at Magic Potion, so there are a lot of friends and apprentices. He was already fifty years old, so when he saw the young Richard, he couldn't help but look strange.

Richard briefly introduced the Rune for the Duke, which is a general-purpose power-amplifier type Rune, with six locations where Magic Crystal can be implanted. After all the crystals are implanted, they can provide a 20% strength bonus stably for three months. After replenishing the crystal four times, the Rune will be damaged and you need to replace it with a new Rune.

"20% strength! This is a huge increase! It's unbelievable." The Duke said as he took off his robe, exposing a wire-like muscle. He stood safely in front of Richard, the strong man's breath faintly revealed. Richard applies the prepared Detection Spell to the Duke.

With a loud bang, the Duke's whole body was gleaming, letting the Richard, who had always been able to control himself well, could not help shaking his hands. The Duke's carrying capacity is very strong, and there are up to six Rune positions on his body, which fully meets the conditions of Rank 3 Rune Knight, and can be installed with two Rank 4 Rune. If all Rune can be loaded, then the Duke can immediately reach the level of Gordon thirteen knights!

The Duke saw the change in Richard ’s expression, stretched his body, and asked casually: "Why, am I not suitable for loading Rune?"

"No, it has nothing to do with Rune, I was shocked by your strength. I didn't expect your real power to exceed Kingdom Guardian!" Richard said calmly.

The Duke smiled slightly at the words and said nothing.

The chief mage of the Duke looked at Richard strangely again. You know, Richard only has Level 11, and the Duke is Level 18. It is not uncommon to learn that the Duke's level with the magic Detection Spell, but it was able to cross such a large difference Precision (accurate) to take effect, and to detect the upper limit of the Duke's power, the chief mage asked himself that he could never do it when he was Level 11.

Richard tries to be as natural as possible, turning around and starting to get busy on the workbench. After Detection Spell was used, he knew that the Duke was actually close to Level 19, so he replaced the secret of carrying capacity and Rune with this relatively minor secret for him. In order to make the fragile alliance steadily move in the direction he needs, in the face of the duke, who is almost discerning and powerful, every action needs to be given a reasonable explanation.

Richard prepares the prepared magic solvent, then removes the Rune plug-in from magic seal box, and inserts Magic Crystal in the corresponding position in front of the Duke. After the bursts of magical light flashed, the light in Magic Crystal condensed into shining crystal spots in Magic Array. The Magic Crystal in the hands of Richard is less than half the size, and it has become gray and bleak.

Before loading Rune, Richard solemnly said: "Your Excellency, I have a place to explain about this power Rune. Because I did not know your power traits and Battle Aura characteristics before, to prevent accident/surprise from appearing, Rune takes safety and does not affect the original Battle Aura Martial Skill operation of the loader as the first consideration. Therefore, the power bonus is worse than the Rune that requires tailored and needs to change the carrier power operation accordingly. In addition, this Rune uses Magic Crystal The main Mana source can be used for about a year and a half. Its advantage is that it does not need to draw the Battle Aura energy drive of the carrier, so it will not cause a burden during combat. The disadvantage is that the Rune bonus will be reduced and the use time is compared The Rune that needs power drive is about half as short. "

The Duke said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. And, you are very thoughtful."

People such as Direwolf Duke who combine personal force and power will never allow Richard to change their Battle Aura and power until they have established full trust. Only in Norland, Rune has become an indispensable part of the power of every strongman, and is also an extremely important part of the knowledge system of the strongman, so he will accept the directly drawn Rune.
