lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapters of natural disasters!
Naka Manor not far from Maple Leaf Town, although it is night, it is brightly lit, like a festival.
Naka Manor is not so much a manor as it is a castle. With such a strong wall, thanks to the continuous reinforcement of the owners of the manor, it looks like a fortress. Even if there is a bandit, you can’t be afraid Easily captured.
Naka Manor itself has many guards, which is one of the reasons why Naka Manor is so famous that no one dares to mess with it.
"Master, are you back?" Seeing Master Kitley, the chief steward of Naca Manor greeted him and saluted him.
Kitley nodded: "Where is my father?"
"Master, master is waiting for you in the study..." said the housekeeper.
Passing through the somewhat gloomy aisle, Kitley came to his father's study, knocked on the door, and called out, "Father..."
"Come in..." There were not many answers, but there was an irresistible majesty for Kitley.
A burly man sits on the desk in the study. He is holding a sword in one hand and a rag in the other. He is gently wiping back and forth, with an extremely serious expression. His eyes are full of tenderness when he looks at the sword. It's like looking at your own wife.
He is the manor of Naka Manor-Geralt, who saw his son come in and said without looking back, "Sit down..."
Kitley sat down nervously. From childhood to adulthood, he was most afraid of his father.
"Your cousin and Master McKinsh are already asleep, right?" Geralt asked.
"Yes, father..." Kitley replied.
Geralt turned around, glanced at his son, put the sword in his hand back into the scabbard, and put the rag on the table casually, "For the arrival of your cousin Jordin and that Master McKinsh, you To be a good hospitality, don’t neglect others..."
When he said this, Geralt had a humble expression on his face. For Geralt, the arrival of Jordin and McKinsh made the Naka Manor shine, to say Aristocrats like Jordin usually want to invite them but can't invite them. They can come to give his family face.
"Yes, father." Kitley answered honestly.
"Did they still have fun here today?" Geralt smiled and asked, "Where did you go without being in the manor all day?"
"We... went to Maple Leaf Town..." Kitley panicked, wondering if he should tell the story this afternoon.
"Well, Maple Leaf Town, yes, autumn is here, the maple leaves there are very beautiful, um... as long as they have a good time..." Geralt didn't feel anything strange, and asked with a smile: "You How do you get along with them?"
"Fortunately, Cousin Jordin treats me well..." Kitley said.
"That's good..." Geralt nodded in satisfaction, and was able to establish a relationship with Jordin, which showed that Kitley did a good job.
"You are the same age, you should have various topics in common..."
Looking at his father's expression as usual, Kitley let go of his heart, knowing that his father was quite satisfied with his performance, he couldn't help but could not help asking for credit, and smiled, "Father, I passed this May is the fifteenth birthday, look..."
Zhizi Moruofu, Kitley hasn't finished speaking yet, Geralt has understood what he means and smiled, "What do you want?"
"Is there a show?" Kitley's eyebrows jumped, and his heart was ecstatic, his father was not so easy to talk.
He took a step closer and said boldly, "Father, I want a sword." He paused, "Well...a sword like Cousin Jordin will do."
Geralt heard the first half of Kitley's and didn't feel anything yet, but when he heard the second half, he almost slipped in fright.
"What? You want a sword like Cousin Jordin?"
"Yes." Kitley hadn't realized that there was a problem with his condition. In his opinion, a sword was nothing but a big deal.
Geralt smiled bitterly, "Dear Kitley, I don’t want to buy such a sword for you, but I can’t afford it at all. You know, how much is Cousin Jordin’s sword? ?"
"How much?" Kitley was still at a loss, but he knew it must be expensive.
Geralt smiled wryly and stretched out three fingers.
"Three hundred gold coins?" Kitley asked.
Geralt shook his head.
"Three thousand gold coins?"
Geralt still shook his head, and then said, "Your cousin Jordin's sword is called "Cold Long Song". The lower-level dark gold equipment costs more than 30,000 gold coins..."
"Thirty thousand?" Kitley was taken aback by this number. "This sword alone is worth thirty thousand?"
Geralt nodded solemnly, "Thirty thousand is the basic number, which refers to the lowest level attribute. If it is the upper level attribute, the value of the light essence core is 150,000, and the price of dark gold level equipment must be doubled. , The value is at least more than 300,000, and it is estimated that it can be even higher if it is auctioned."
"What is a dark gold level? Superior attributes?" Kitley still didn't understand.
"Don't you know?" Geralt frowned and said dissatisfied, "Kitley, I usually ask you to read more books and you don't listen, but now you don't understand anything, huh, no Learn nothing..."
After giving lessons to Kitley, Geralt answered him, "We can upgrade the weapons we commonly use. Like our usual swords, they have not been upgraded. They are ordinary weapons. The process of leveling, we call it enchanting..."
"The enchanted sword, with magic attributes, makes it easier to use and powerful, and its attack power increases..."
"Weapon enchanting requires the use of essence cores. After the upgrade is successful, the first level is Azure, the second level is aquamarine, the third level is gold, and the fourth level is dark gold. Your cousin’s sword is The fourth level of dark gold..."
"Then what rank and attribute are all about?" Kitley still didn't understand.
"As for the rank and attributes, your cousin is now an intermediate swordsman. He can only use lower-level weapons. The highest level of the lower-level weapons is dark gold. As for the attributes... I don’t know. It is already the best among the lower-level weapons...So the price of 300,000 yuan is not high."
Kitley thought for a while and asked, "Why are the prices of weapons with high-class and low-class weapons so different..."
Geralt smiled, "This is about the price of the essence core, think about it, the price of a fourth-level core is 1,000 gold coins, the price of a fifth-level core is 2,000 gold coins, and the price of a sixth-level core is 5000 The price of a gold coin, just a six-level core, our family can’t afford..."
He paused and continued, "Furthermore... Weapon enchanting is not easy. The probability of failure is very high. Once you fail, the essence will be gone. This is the same as gambling. The higher the weapon level, the probability of failure also changes. The higher the gain, many people enchant their weapons, and some of them end up ruining their family..."
"And for a lower-level white weapon to be upgraded to dark gold level, it usually requires 30 essence cores, and light essence cores cost 150,000. When it is made into a dark gold level, the price is doubled, which is 30 Wan..."
Kitley stretched out his tongue, "300,000 a sword, the price is too exaggerated..." He knew that his manor’s annual income was only a few thousand gold coins, and these 300,000 swords were simply not cut. Actual fantasy.
"It's fine if you know... It's not that my father doesn't buy it for you, but I can't afford it..." Geralt smiled, "The Salt family is incomparable to us, their family The Holy Roman Empire is also a big family ranked. If your aunt hadn't married the patriarch, how could our Naka Manor have today’s glory..."
Kitley nodded. He knew that his family was nothing more than a rich countryman, and his cousin and his friend McKinsh were the real nobles. His family provided shoes for others. Not worthy.
Jording is the son of his aunt. If it weren't for this level of relatives, as Master Jording, how could he have come to a place like Naka Manor?
"Jordin may become the heir of the Salt family. You get along well with him, and you will benefit from it in the future..." laughed.
"Yes, father..." Kitley nodded, "I will."
"I'll give this sword to you..." Geralt thought for a while, and handed the long sword that was wiped to Kitley, "This sword belongs to the lower azure long sword, inferior attributes, The price is worth at least five or six thousand gold coins, so I will give it to you..."
Kitley was overjoyed, reached out to take it happily, thanked him, took the sword and left his father's study. With this sword, you can show it off in front of your cousin and his friends tomorrow. Although this behavior seems very ridiculous, Master Kitley also wants face.
Geralt's study was calm again, and after a while, the knock on the door rang again.
"Come in..."
The one who came in was the chief butler of Naca Manor.
"Master, are you looking for something to do with me?"
Geralt narrowed his eyes into a line and asked the butler, "What happened to Kitley going to Maple Leaf Town today?"
Kitley's panic expression still couldn't be concealed from him. From childhood to adulthood, Geralt knew his son best.
Sure enough, the butler bowed deeply and said, "Yes, sir, something really happened to the young masters in Maple Leaf Town today."
Then I said what happened this afternoon, and the butler was also strange in his heart. This is a trivial matter for Naca Manor. He can handle it, and he believes he can handle it well. , Isn't it just a beggar? I don't expect the master to intervene personally.
"Oh, it turns out that I accidentally killed an old beggar..." Geralt was disapproved after hearing this. "A pariah, kill and kill, it's not a big deal..."
If it is a townsman, it is estimated that it will be a little troublesome. For the benefit of the townspeople, it may be inevitable to lose some money. If you are just a penniless beggar, it will save you a lot of trouble and you don’t even have to pay.
"But Kittery was so hopeless. He did the evil as he did it, but forgot to wipe his butt." Geralt snorted and said dissatisfiedly, "Call me Kitley. ……"
Kitley came to his father's study again, and when he saw the housekeeper, he knew it was broken, and his father must have known what happened today.
Geralt asked with a cold face, "Kittley, do you know that you are wrong?"
Kitley looked flustered, "I...I...it's nothing to do with me, he came across..."
"I didn't mean you..." Geralt's eyes fixed on Kitley, "Why didn't you kill that bastard?"
"Uh... there were a lot of townspeople onlookers that day..." It wasn't that Kittery hadn't thought about this, but there were so many people that day, he couldn't get started.
"It doesn't matter how many townspeople are, it's just killing a little beggar..." Geralt was extremely dissatisfied with him.
"Father, since you said you were just a little beggar, do you have to be so serious? It feels like we are afraid of him like this..." Kittery said cautiously.
Geralt frowned, took a breath, and asked, "Kitley, do you know mountain ants?"
"Mountain ants?" Kitley had a question mark in his head. He didn't know what his father was referring to?
"Yes, that's the kind of mountain ant, big..." Geralt gave a meaningful smile, "Although the mountain ant is small, it hurts to be bitten by it, isn't it? "
……
In the middle of the night, after almost everyone in the Naka Manor was almost asleep, the door slowly opened, and a few fast horses rushed out of the manor and ran straight towards Maple Leaf Town.
The lamp was still on in Geralt's study at the Naca Manor. Geralt stood in front of the window, watching the fast horse going away, with a cruel smile in his eyes.
"This kid's tail, I have to let my father clean it up..."
