Budo in the piece bathed in the noon after the sun rice under the golden boiled cold forest! In the clearing, he saw the riders bringing people who wanted to see him, no, not one, but a group. He followed the mercenaries leading the way down the hillside covered with cold shirts, and as soon as he stepped out of the woods, he saw about a dozen haggard-looking men scattered in the glade, two or three of them with horses. Some were bandaged, and most of them wore thick leather armor or tight chain mail, and a small round shield and long sword painted in color hung from the belt, and they looked like mercenaries like Mano and the others.

Not far away was the leader of the group who stood with Ulliel. Brando had to admit that he rarely saw such a burly man in the southern part of Goran Elson Province, presumably from the Anlek of the North, or at least the blood of the other party with a striking red beard, a square face, and a sword mark on the corner of his eyebrows. He wore an open-chested shirt with sleeves rolled up above his elbows, revealing the knotted muscles underneath.

This man must have been quite confident in his own strength. Otherwise, you won't just be wearing a simple leather shoulder pad, and there will be no protective gear on your body. His weapon was a string of hand axes attached to his belt, a weapon commonly used by the native warriors of Anlek. Not only can it be used in hand-to-hand combat, but it can also be thrown at any time to kill unprepared.

When the berserker-like man saw Brando, he took off his hat respectfully and buried his head: "Hello, respected knight, I only pay tribute to you on behalf of the Red Shooting Wolf Mercenary. I am their chief, Bartom. ”

Bartom means "red, red and vermilion" in the Anlek language. Brando further determined his origin. He pressed one hand on his sword, nodded without a trace, and looked at the other man, waiting for him to show his intentions.

Brando's status at the moment was that of a noble knight among the refugees, and it was in his interest at this time to maintain it, so that Brando would neither admit nor object, but rather show a playful attitude that would help him establish his prestige among them.

Brando didn't say anything, but Bartom was in a tangled mood. He cautiously asked, "May I ask the knight lord, are you going to take these refugees away from the pursuit of the Madara army?" ”

Brando glanced at him and nodded.

"Then dare Ran, do you still lack manpower?"

"What, you want to join us?" Brando was stunned, and immediately realized that the mercenaries had probably retreated from the Sharp Rock Valley, and that they were in need of shelter.

That said, the White-Maned Swordsmen and the "Dead Maggots." The battle of Magus has come to an end, and judging by this situation, Luc Besson should have been defeated.

Brando looked up, and the sunlight shone through the cascading forests of cold shirts in front of him and onto the rolling hills outside. I thought that the refugees who had retreated and the soldiers of the White-Maned Swordsman Regiment would arrive here, and the size of the refugees would increase again.

Bartom couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when he saw the young nobleman pressing the hilt of his sword with one hand and staring ahead in distraction. He hurriedly nodded and replied, "Yes, Lord Knight, we only need a little food and medicinal herbs, and after a little rest, we can fight for you again." ”

"What's up ahead?" Brando asked suddenly.

Bartom was stunned.

"I mean the Pinnacle Valley, how many undead armies of Madara there are."

"I can't count, my lord. The skeleton cavalry of the brigade, they have been chasing the refugees since the night, driving the refugees forward, Luc Besson, that bastard did not resist at all, he was chased all the way, and then met the monster ambush of the brigade, and almost the whole army was annihilated"

Brando was not surprised by Luc Besson's expression, "Tiger, Luc Besson is indeed one of the best generals in the White-Maned Army, but he can't get rid of the limitations of this history, and defeat is inevitable."

Brigade of skeleton cavalry, Kabaith and Dead Maggots combined? He suddenly thought of this question: "Brigade of monsters? What kind of monster? ”

"They are about the height of a human, with smooth skin, a blue-black body, long iron claws, and a foul stench. They leapt out of the rocks around the valley and attacked us, and we were caught off guard by less than two or three out of ten survivors. ”

Ghouls, just don't know if there are ghouls. Brando didn't say a word, what he was most worried about was the ghouls, these undead creatures came from the Black Border region, and were one order higher than the skeleton cavalry in Madara's military sequence, one order lower than the Black Knights and Pale Knights, but they were the highest first-order troops that Madara's low-level troops could gather on a large scale in this era

He thought "dead maggots." How many ghouls did Magus have at least on his hands? Hundred? Two hundred? Umbrella ghouls are force-level creatures, each with the strength of the lower reaches of the black iron, and it is only natural that the white-maned swordsmen will be crushed by them in a surprise attack. "Lord Knight?" Bartom looked at Chelando, a little apprehensive.

Brando nodded: "If you want to join my team, you have to follow my rules." I am saying that I am employing you, and in addition to the honorarium, I will give you a place to rest, and if you go with him, he will give you some food, herbs and bandages, and when you are ready, you will be ready to fight. ”

As he spoke, he patted the mercenary beside him on the shoulder, "Take them over." ”

"Thank you for your generosity, Lord Knight." Bartom hurriedly bowed deeply. Brando's offer had greatly exceeded his expectations, he had been to many places, but he had never seen such a generous nobleman.

But the rider who came down with him asked, "What about you?" My lord? ”

"You go back first, and let me meet alone." Brando looked at his surroundings and replied that it was just what he needed.

Brando, of course, is not to be alone for a while, but to complete an alchemy. Alchemy is not a mysterious skill in Vainde, the civilization of magic dictates that many workshop craftsmen are more or less skilled in alchemy. But to elevate it to the level of an art of magic, it takes a lot of knowledge and a long period of accumulation.

In the language of the game, the skill of alchemy is two skills before and after the level, before the level it looks more like chemistry, and the craftsman uses this skill to obtain some materials that are different from the usual.

After that, it became a mystical art, with wizards using advanced alchemy to extract pure crystals and magical materials. Even make magic potions, and some natural magic items.

And when you combine it with the skills of forging, crafting, and enchantment, it is the legendary skill of making magical equipment.

There are many craftsmen and workshop apprentices among the refugees, and it is not difficult for Brando to learn alchemy, he only needs to find one to ask casually to start "basic alchemy." As a nobleman, naturally no one will suspect that he will steal a teacher to learn the art

However, Brando happened to be stealing from the teacher this time.

Upgrading alchemy from level 0 to level requires a total of sub-skill experience, but this is not a problem for Brando now. After the previous night's battle, he had a total of enough experience on hand to allow him to raise his class level to the mercenary level, so that he could have free skill experience. more than enough

It's a pity that alchemy is a mysterious skill, and the physics profession can only put it under the basic identity of a civilian. Because the basic identity is different from the profession. Any skill under this identity is considered to be the job, but since the basic identity cannot be leveled, a skill can only be upgraded to a fixed level in this role.

For example, civilians can raise alchemy to a level. The nobility is level 7, and the alchemist is the occupancy level. In fact, the Sword of Amber. Identity and occupation matching is a very particular skill. Sometimes a warrior player wants to change his identity in order to gain the skills of a wizard, or a wizard player in order to obtain the skills of a warrior, if he does not want to waste experience and attributes on a part-time job.

Brando's ideal state is to raise alchemy to level 6 to create magic potions, but at this moment, the conditions can only be limited.

He waited for Bartom and the others to follow the rider away. After waiting for a while to make sure that there was no one around, he came to the center of the clearing alone, carefully swept a clearing on the ground, and then drew his sword and drew a simple circle in the clearing:

Energy Conversion Circle

The knowledge of the circle comes from Level 4 alchemy, which is used by craftsmen to extract free energy from physical entities and seal them into a crystalline state.

Then there is the Blood Refining Circle.

That's why Brando avoided the others, the blood refining technique was actually derived from the alchemy technique of Madara, and it was one of the forbidden techniques that were strictly forbidden within the confines of the Sanctuary of Fire. This is mainly due to the fact that the blood refining will cause damage to the caster itself, which is not in line with the basic teachings of the Fire Temple.

But it has to be said that blood refining is a very practical skill for Yi'er, because it can ignore alchemy equipment, allowing alchemists to complete some simple material synthesis in any situation.

To be honest, although the Temple of Flame strictly forbade it back then. There are not a lot of players who use this technique in Eruin and Cruz, and the players only pay attention to practical results, and at most they are only found to drop one level.

Besides, it usually doesn't go undetected, does it?

However, Brando is still a little nervous at this time, and for the player, dropping one level is a matter of losing his head for him. Although Charles was already helping him outside, he really didn't dare to challenge the authority of the Flame Temple so blatantly.

He took a breath, took out the teeth he had plucked from the mid-level corpse witch in Ridenberg and placed them in the center of the circle, then stood up and stabbed the tip of his sword in his finger, a drop of blood oozing out. He flattened his finger and let the blood drip in the center of the circle, and the circle flashed red, and the tooth immediately turned into a gray crystal the size of a little finger.

And the moment alchemy is completed. Brando felt his heart skip a beat, and he was already being hurt by the backlash.

He wiped a cold sweat on his pale forehead, and then picked up the crystal, which was actually just a pure soul energy crystal. However, unlike the soul crystal, if this turbid soul energy is absorbed by someone, I am afraid that it will be poisoned to death immediately.

But don't look at it, it's crude, but it's one of his most important props for the night.

But he couldn't breathe a sigh of relief at this point, because he had more work to do. Thirty-two teeth, four fingers, Brando was already planning to squander his bottle of holy water here. He can only hope that these investments will pay for themselves sufficiently.

However, he was only halfway through the net, and about a quarter of an hour later, he heard the voice of Charles outside: "Who? ”

Brando's heart tightened, and he hurriedly smoothed the magic circle on the ground, put away a qiē material, and then grabbed the Thorn of Light and ran out. As soon as he reached the edge of the cold shirt forest, he saw a middle-aged man standing opposite Charles, and he took a look to find that this middle-aged man was the one he had saved last night.

How did he get here?

In Brando's memory, this middle-aged man was quite backbone, and he dared to resist under Makov's guards. It's just a little too unwise.

But what he didn't expect was that the first thing the middle-aged man said when he saw him was: "My lord, are you using the blood magic array, please use your own body as "

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, not only Brando, but also Charles. How did he know? Could it be that he has been here for a long time? Impossible! Charles didn't believe that he didn't even know that the civilians couldn't notice it.

The young wizard had to prepare a spell from a knee-jerk.

But the middle-aged man saw their doubts, and said deeply: "My lord, I haven't thanked you for your rescue last night, my name is Tamar, and I am an alchemist. ”

"Tamar?"

"You're Tamar!" Brando felt the name a little familiar at first, but then remembered that this was not the chief court alchemist of Madara after the year of Venus three hundred and eighty?

He was almost stunned by the name for a moment.

He couldn't help but look the other person up and down, trying to see if this was the Tamar. But it seems likely that it is the same one, it turns out that Tamar was not originally from Madara, and he must have been transformed into an undead spirit during this war. If it was because of Makov's bastard, it was not impossible for him to turn to hatred for the country. Presumably, the reason for the hatred was the death of his son. Thinking about it this way, it is logical to say that it is a qiē.

However, what really confirmed Brando was the other party's sensitivity to alchemy, and it could be seen from the counter-devouring effect that he was using forbidden arts. This is not something that ordinary alchemical talents can do.

Historically, Tamar was a strong man against the sky, and most of the high-level undead transformation results of Madara were completed by him, Mesat, and Thrilando, three undead alchemy masters in the past and present. And Tamar's most famous achievement is the black circle technology that directly transforms skeleton soldiers from corpses, which can be said to directly double Madara's military strength

Now, it seems that it will be a little difficult for Madala to achieve this result again.

Brando looked at Tamar, who was still a human in front of him, and couldn't help but smile a little.

"Your Excellency?" It didn't matter if he laughed, but it startled Tamar, and he said in his heart, could it be that this knight master actually has a special habit? He had heard the filthy rumors among the nobles, so even if he was close to the age of confusion, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

It was Charles who coughed angrily on the side to make Brando come to his senses, and hurriedly explained, "You are the alchemist master of Rydenberg." Tamar? ”

Master of Alchemy? That's one of the top titles in the field of alchemy, is he that famous? Tamar was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook her head: "I'm just an unknown little alchemist, my lord, I have been working for the noble council before. Nothing came of it."

Not famous yet? Now that he has found a treasure, Brando is overjoyed.

Fourth, today's monthly pass is not powerful, students ask for support, and it hurts a little to watch

Seeing that I'm working so hard to update, ask for help."

There are 2 more at night that should be just old and old... ８。 ０… Fisherman's book is not the same body clam!
