678 Something feels like something isn't right
After winning the duel again, the third young master walked back with his subordinates with joy.
Although the duels were fought with wooden weapons, the cavalry charged with too much force, and both sides were killed and wounded. Dead soldiers were given a pension of ten silver coins, and dead pack horses were also good rations made into jerky.
In the past, my father always felt that the eldest brother's concept was right, but now, the third young master obviously felt that my father was more interested in his concept.
Sure enough, victory is the best way to convince a person.
The third young master waved his hand to the eldest young master a little proudly, and regardless of the latter's fire-breathing gaze, he first let most of the cavalry return to the camp, and then took a small group of cavalry to go another way, happy things, of course, to share with important people, but as he walked, he found that there was a person in front of him blocking the way.
If ordinary people dared to block the way of the army, the third young master didn't say a word, and directly stepped on the cavalry and crushed people into pulp.
But the person in front of him was wearing a Ming magic robe, and the light patterns on it flowed.
He immediately reined in his horse and looked at the young man in front of him.
"Who are you, and why are you blocking my way?" The Third Young Master asked with a frown.
For the profession of magician, it is already a consensus that if you can not be offended, you must not be offended. The other party was just blocking the way, and it didn't seem to be too hostile, so the third young master held back his unhappy emotions and tried his best to speak in a calm tone.
Beta said, "Give me a pack horse." ”
As soon as he heard this, the third young master smiled: "It's no problem to give you a pack horse, but as a spell caster, you actually robbed my head, isn't it a little out of identity?" ”
Beta said with a flat expression: "My horse was stolen by your subordinates last night, and I don't know where it was taken by your cavalry, so I only came to ask you for one directly." ”
The third young master is very smart, and as soon as he heard this, he understood that it must be the people below who are in charge of their own affairs. In the face of the caster, they don't dare to come hard, so they can only take this kind of shady means.
The third young master only guessed half right, when Beta slept yesterday, he didn't wear a magic robe, he just wore an ordinary fancy dress, and the soldier thought that he was a small nobleman who was traveling, and he didn't dare to offend him openly, so he tried to steal the pack horse. If they knew that Beta was a spellcaster, they wouldn't even dare steal.
"I'm sorry, I apologize for the recklessness of the soldiers."
The third young master dismounted, bent down slightly, and then scolded those soldiers in his heart, who didn't mess with anyone, he actually dared to provoke a spellcaster, didn't he want to harm him.
Fortunately, this magician seems to be very easy to speak.
A soldier pulled a pack horse over to Beta and then stepped back again.
Beta was about to ride away, when the third young master suddenly said, "Your Excellency, can you come and sit on my manor?" ”
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry."
Beta declined the invitation, mounted his pack horse, and turned to leave. He went back to the hotel to pay the rent, and he didn't need to pack anything, so he got on his horse and left. As soon as he left the city, he saw a cavalry blocking the intersection in front of him.
However, they did not stop Beta, because they saw Beta from a distance and took the initiative to get out of the way.
The identity of the caster, no matter where he is, is very easy to use.
Beta continued on his way, and as he approached, the two sides nodded to each other as friends.
Seeing that Beta was about to walk past the group of people, Beta suddenly became distracted, stopped, and his gaze fell on one person.
This small action naturally aroused the vigilance of the other party, and most of their hands immediately pressed on the hilt of the sword at their waists, looking at Beta with fierce eyes.
The one who was noticed by Beta was a young man, who looked a little similar to the third young master.
"Is there anything you need?" The young man spoke first: "We don't seem to know each other. ”
"I'm Cook Green, a dragon vein warlock." Beta shifted his gaze to the other person's face, "Sorry to disturb you." ”
Dragon Vein Warlock, hearing this, the young subordinates became even more nervous, and many of them had their weapons half unsheathed. Warlock is surprisingly strong in everyone's hearts, especially the dragon vein.
The young man graciously raised his hand and pressed it downwards to keep his subordinates from getting excited, and then he looked at Beta and asked with some curiosity: "Your Excellency, what are you looking for me?" ”
"Can you show me the ornament around your waist?" Beta pointed.
On the other party's waist hung a square-shaped ornament, with strange lines on it, and a faint magical luster flowing.
"Okay. My name is Reece Sorrin. The young man took the ornament from his waist and handed it to Beta: "This magical object is strange, it is our ancestral heirloom, and it is usually worn by the eldest son, but no one knows what it is used for. ”
"Well, I know you. I also watched the duel between you and someone else's cavalry just now. Beta took the ornament and said, "Although you lost quite badly, I was still quite impressed." ”
"I'm sorry, but I did make a fool of myself." Reece smiled wryly.
The thing was in his hand, and then the system sound of 'tick dong' sounded, and Beta's mind moved, and found that there was an orange epic quest in the quest system bar: National Treasure.
It's definitely a precious thing.
Beta felt the texture of the ornament with his fingers, then looked at the lines on it, and after checking it again, he determined that this thing was indeed the entrance key to the Ancestral Tomb of the Frans, he had seen it in the game, and the Silver Winged Guild somehow got this thing, they ransacked the ancestral tombs of the Francis royal family, and then posted the process and the quest item patterns on the forum.
Of course, the Frans royal family also knew about this, but at that time it was already the middle and late stages of the game, and a large number of legendary professions appeared among the players, and Silver Wing, as the second largest guild, was naturally very strong.
Beta is strange...... How could something so important be in the hands of this young man.
"This thing is worth studying, I'm quite interested, can you sell it to me." Beta asked as she returned her things to the other party.
Reese shook his head: "I'm sorry, this thing was given to the ancestors by a strange spellcaster more than three hundred years ago...... All in all, it's precious. ”
Seeing that Fang was reluctant to reveal too much information about the key, Beta didn't care, he said, "I'm very interested in the magic patterns on this thing and the magic knowledge involved, can't I really sell it?" ”
"I'm sorry."
Beta thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll trade with you with other things, for example, so that your cavalry regiment can win against your brother." ”
Reese's eyes lit up and he looked excited, but he shook his head with difficulty.
Beta saw that the other party did have the idea of trading, but he was afraid of losing money.
When trading with people, it depends on who is the first to lose their breath. The key to the royal tomb is indeed very important, but Beta believes that there should be no one who knows what this thing is and what it does, except for himself.
Since this is the case, he is not in a hurry, anyway, in the future, there will be more means to get it, such as ...... Find a chance to steal it.
"It seems that you don't want to, that's a pity."
Beta left a word, turned and left. After walking a few steps, Reece finally lost his breath and called out to Beta: "Your Excellency, please wait, would you like to come to my manor to chat?" ”
"No problem."
After about ten minutes, Beta sat down in Reese's study.
"Although this thing itself has been kept by the eldest son, it is not in itself a proof of succession." Under Beta's curious questioning, Reese told the origin of the key: "I don't know the details too much, I just heard that this thing was given to our family more than 300 years ago." They said they would let us keep it, and one day, someone would come and take it. That spellcaster has been so helpful to our family that this thing has been passed down from generation to generation, but no one has ever asked about it in three hundred years. You're the first ......"
Beta's mind moved, and he suddenly felt that there was something strange about this story.
"Are you the one who came to take it?" Reece looked at Beta curiously.
Beta shook her head, "It should have been an accident, I was just curious about the magic patterns on it." ”
"It doesn't matter, for so many years, you are the only one who speaks, whether it is you or not is no problem." Reese smiled and said, "So, can you tell me how to defeat my brother?" ”
As he spoke, Reese pushed the key in front of Beta.
Beta did not take the key, but said, "In fact, your heavy cavalry, facing your brother's pack horse cavalry regiment, is unlikely to win. Light cavalry is inherently restrained by heavy cavalry. ”
"The most powerful part of the heavy cavalry is the shock infantry formation, not to deal with the light cavalry."
Reese knew these things, too, but he didn't stop Beta from talking, but listened quietly.
"It's not too difficult to deal with your brother, as long as you are willing to put some effort into it." Beta tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and then said: "First of all, you have to sharpen the weight of the armor of the cavalry and the war horse, the horse and the man, only the front armor is equipped, and the back armor is removed, so that the horse can be relieved of a lot of burden." ”
Reece was moved, but still asked, "In this case, isn't the back of the cavalry very vulnerable?" ”
"The cavalry is attacked on the back, and whether there is that layer of armor or not, they are all dead."
Reece nodded, feeling that Beta had a point.
"The second is that you have to strengthen the endurance of the military horses."
Reece shook his head helplessly: "The military horses I have cultivated are already the best in the world, but their lack of physical strength has always been their weakness. ”
"What ordinary means can't do, magic can." Beta's fingers swiped lightly on the table, and a miniature magic circle appeared on the table: "This is an endurance-strengthening magic array, which can be carved into the war horse to strengthen the horse's endurance." ”
Reese's expression was visibly surprised: "How much stronger." ”
"At least on the same level as pack horses."
In the game, many magicians can use this magic array, and both military horses and pack horses can be carved above, so military horses are still not as good as pack horses in terms of physical strength.
But in this world, Beta thinks that not many people can, otherwise in Reese's identity, his elite military horses should have this thing engraved on them.
"But what if the enemy captures my horse, he will also learn this magic array?"
"Don't worry, there are many magic traps in this magic array, if they are not drawn in order, and the method of injecting magic power is not right, they will fail, and ordinary people have no way to imitate them. Therefore, I need you, Lord Reese, to find a trusted magician to learn from me. ”
"No problem, then please stay here for a few more days."
Beta nodded in agreement. Reece took a magic circle from Beta and put it on a military horse to test it on, and found ...... The effect is really noticeable.
Then at noon, Beta met the caster of the magic circle, 3 mages who were going to learn from him.
"This is my lover, Sheila. She has a lot of research on magic arrays, and she should be able to learn it. ”
The Endurance Enhancement Magic Circle is not too profound, but if you add anti-replication means to the magic array, it will become more profound.
The young woman had been studying with Beta for seventeen days, and when Beta was about to run out of patience, the young woman finally learned the magic array.
Reese looked extremely embarrassed, he presented a bag, and said, "I'm sorry for delaying Your Excellency for so much time, this is a little bit of my heart, please accept it." ”
The bag contained some beautiful gems, Beta accepted them with a smile, and left the city with the keys.
To get to the Sanctuary, you have to pass through the royal city of Frans, the city of Frans.
As he was approaching Frans, Beta saw a carriage rushing in front of the road, and the carriage was very fast, bumping and clattering on the road that was not very smooth, and the noise was so loud that it seemed that the carriage would fall apart in the next second.
The carriage was of good workmanship, of excellent quality, and did not fall apart, but a man was thrown out of it, fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and then two arrows were shot in the distance, and with two groans, they accurately hit the people on the ground, and they died directly.
This person was more than a hundred meters away from Beta, and even if Beta wanted to save him, it would be too late.
Then the carriage stopped, and the coachman staggered to the deceased's side, picked him up, and only shouted angrily: "The Seventh Prince......"
Then he was also shot in the head with an arrow.
I'm going to ...... This was Beta's first reaction, how could he encounter this kind of palace fighting vendetta on the road.
He suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when he touched his body, he found that it was the key to Wang Ling's fever.
When Beta was frowning, the five men in black who had been chasing behind the carriage walked up to the two deceased, circled around, and after making sure that the two were dead, they turned their eyes to Beta.
"Magician? Killed. ”
Even if the other party is masked, Beta can hear it, and the person who speaks has a very old voice.
Beta sneered in his heart, and a gold coin was already in his hand.
