Chapter 190: Arrived early
Early in the morning, the morning training of the Knights of Fecharon began as usual again.
The appearance and departure of the Gao Sai people yesterday did not affect the enthusiasm of the young people for morning training, after all, it was about the ownership of a steel cuirass.
However, as the training time went by, looking at Dean's figure looming in and out of the fog, these young people were stunned for a while.
"The speed of the regiment commander seems to be a little faster!"
Ceren, who had always looked to Dean as a role model, was the first to notice the difference.
"It's not that the head of the regiment has become faster, but that you guy has slowed down, right? Yesterday afternoon at the entrance of town, I saw a guy get very close to Mette and disappear for a while! ”
Ike teased his friend.
"I was asking about the fate of the Gaussie fugitive!"
Ceren blushed and argued loudly.
"Oh!! Is it?? ”
Ike's voice lengthened slightly, and so did the young people around him.
"I won't tell you, the first cuirass must be mine!"
After saying that, Silun's face was already flushed, and he sped up and ran forward.
"How could it be yours? That must be mine! ”
As Siren accelerated, Ike was not to be outdone, and Chad, who was on the side, rushed forward without saying a word, even an auxiliary soldier like Maher gritted his teeth and tried his best.
Huck was running beside the young people, smiling at the healthy competition.
Huck was full of admiration for his leader's practice of taking out a cuirass as a reward, rather than sealing it or one for each person—only what he worked hard to get would be cherished.
This. Huck himself has quite a knack.
"Still. The speed of the regiment commander seems to be really a little faster! ”
Huck looked at Dean, who was long gone. Secretly thought to himself.
And in fact, it's the same -
After the special baptism potion was taken, Dean's [Strength] and [Agility] were each increased by 0.2, and similarly, the disadvantages of continuous baptism were also revealed: the upper limit of [Constitution] was reduced by 0.5, and although he also obtained a talent [Psychic Suggestion] that belonged to a psychic warlock, but because the upper limit of [Constitution] was reduced, his life and energy. As well as the duration and cooldown time of applying skills, they have been reduced.
So, in general, it's just a relatively equal 'transformation'.
Of course, this still has the blood of the Psychic Warlock as a neutralizer and increases the potency.
Otherwise, the effect will be weaker!
However, the immediate changes still make many people addicted to it.
Even after Dean felt the speed of the obvious change at this moment, he couldn't bear it and sped up his speed.
But. When we are about to reach the goal we have been aiming for a few days, it is becoming more and more difficult to take steps. The vigilance in Dean's heart became more and more intense: "The 0.5 attribute is exchanged for the 0.4 attribute, although it opens up a talent again, but the 0.1 attribute is completely lost due to the effect of the drug, and it is not like the first baptism, there will be accumulated medicinal properties...... Some of them are not very cost-effective, my current situation is much better than in my previous life, and I should be more secure - I should not be on such an adventure until my body has reached the Great Knight! ”
While adjusting his breathing with the [Body Forging Technique (Jade)], Dean pondered.
When his breathing had calmed down, Dean's gaze turned to the talent bar on the character panel.
[Psychic hint Lv1: The power contained in the bloodline makes your words and eyes become special powers; Effect: Spend 10 energy, you can plant a hint to a person or a sapient creature, and both parties need to perform a will test - their own will - 2.5 > each other (when you face a person who is wary of you, hateful to people or animals, even if you cast a hint, it will be ineffective)]
(Note: Implies that once planted, it will continue forever, unless something very unexpected happens)
"With the remaining 1.09 minus 2.5 Will, even with the bonus of [Indomitable], it will have no effect on most of the people I need to face...... You must do your best to increase the level of [Psychic Suggestion], or the value of [Will]! ”
Dean was not surprised by the appearance of the talent [Psychic Suggestion].
Because, according to the Lunde. Fendi's cousin, the power contained in the other party's bloodline, is obviously inclined to affect the side of people's minds, and the other party's nominal uncle, in essence, is in the same vein.
Although some of the methods used by the 'Psychic Warlock' to trap and confuse the enemy are also very powerful, for Dean, [Psychic Suggestion] is the most appropriate.
After all, he has too many things to be known about, and, in many cases, more people are needed.
Whether it's Jack from Jan, or Little, who is in charge of the Vauban County Gausai spy network, or even spies like Cedar, they are all Dean's targets.
Of course, it will take some time for the specific implementation.
At the very least, after boosting Psychic Suggestion or Will.
The heat flow in his body that belonged to the [Body Forging (Jade)] began to subside, Dean picked up his clothes, greeted Huck and let him take charge of the next training, and walked quickly towards his room.
You know, the Gausai people had set off ten hours before him.
As for the reason for his departure?
"Sir!"
Old Ander, who had been waiting in Dean's room for a long time, stood up and bowed as Dean appeared, and took out the package and box he had brought with him.
"Sir, this is ninety grams of brandige flavor!"
First of all, Old Ander put the cloth bag in front of Dean, and then, with a very cautious attitude, he held the box in his hand and opened it gently: "Sir, this is the family crest and your identity certificate that the Marquis asked me to bring you, as well as the family seal!" A qiē is made according to your requirements! ”
Inside the small box, there are three things-
Parchment identification. Put it on the top layer. It was tied together in the form of a bow with a red ribbon. Underneath is Dean's coat of arms and seal, and the box is lined with a red velvet quilt that is pressed into a very appropriate depression to hold the family crest and seal completely.
The family crest, the texture of pure gold, was shaped into an oval shape, and against the backdrop of silver-white, an emerald green tower stood in it.
The seal, on the other hand, is in the style of most of the nobles of jadeite. It was made in the shape of a ring, where it should have been set with a stone, a shrunken family crest and letters representing Dean's name jumped out of it.
Dean gently stroked the family crest and seal, with an inexplicable love in his eyes.
In fact, in the previous life, Dean was also knighted.
However, before the knighthood was conferred in the true sense, the Archduke of Jade died in battle; Naturally, the knighthood ceremony did not take place, although most people would still refer to Dean as a knight. But a lord who has not been knighted in the true sense of the word, and who is a dead country. Obviously there is not much value.
It's just out of etiquette.
"We can't afford to repeat the mistakes of the past!"
Dean put the family crest and seal back in the box, checked the identification form again, and after confirming that it was correct, carefully put the box away.
Whether it is the subsequent enlistment of retinues or the issuance of some private orders, these three things are indispensable.
Even, in the future, his armor and carriage will need to have his own family badge.
And that's what Dean needs to do.
Otherwise, blacksmiths and tailors would never dare to make zuò in private.
You must know that copying the family crest and seal of the nobles without permission is to be hanged.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for me!"
Dean put away the box and turned to old Ander to thank him - after all, in addition to being hired by him, old Ander represented the Marquis de Vauban at this moment.
"Lord Marquis, let me convey to you, if you need it, he will introduce you to good blacksmiths and tailors!"
Old Ander told him what the Marquis de Vauban had told him when he left, and told Dean in full.
"I can't thank you enough!"
Dean thanked him again.
After that, Old Ander explained in detail the operation of the shop, and made a decision with Dean to come to report the account every month - after Dean made it clear that he could not return to Vauban City in a short time, Old Ander proposed this method a long time ago, but in Vauban City, because Dean left in a hurry, it was not really settled, and it was finalized here.
Obviously, old Ande, who had completed a major event in his heart, let out a long sigh of relief and got up to say goodbye.
"Do you need me to send you? It's not been very peaceful lately! ”
Dean asked.
What would happen to the Baron de Fendi under the dog's rush to jump over the wall, Dean couldn't guarantee it.
"Thank you for your concern, sir, I'm just a bad old man, no one will shoot at me, if there are more guards, it will attract attention!"
Old Ander smiled, rejecting Dean's kindness.
"Have a nice trip, then!"
Dean sent the other party to the door of the Knights' station, and watched the other party turn over and get on his horse neatly before returning.
For the safety of old Ander, because of the other party's assurance, and the relationship with the Marquis de Vaubana, Dean just flashed in his heart, and then left it behind.
When he returned to his room, he began to organize his belongings, and then, instructing his deputy—
"This is the brandige essence that I owe to the barbarian lady, and I need to send it to the Cloth Piercing, who will then act as an intermediary for us to complete the transaction...... It takes about four or five days, and if I'm lucky enough to be invited to Chikta, it's extended to about a week! During this time, the Knights will be handed over to you for the time being! ”
After Dean's mental estimation, he informed his deputy of an approximate time.
"Well, I'll leave it to you!"
Huck nodded earnestly.
It wasn't the first time Huck had heard about Dean and the barbarians trading white lanzhi essence, after all, he had seen that magic necklace before.
Naturally, Huck admires the integrity of his leader, and Huck is helpless against the traditions of the barbarians.
The only fortunate thing is that the stockade of the cloth is not very far from the straight-line distance of the Knights, and the time consumed back and forth. Not too much.
Even if he was really invited to the big village of the barbarians, Chektor. There won't be any hassle either.
But. Huck still reminded his captain-
"If you can, please come back before the Midwinter Festival, the Baron will have a dinner party, invite the famous people of the whole Tyre Territory, and if you want to recruit retinues and guards, it is the best time!"
"Okay, I remember!"
Dean nodded, and took the dry food and water needed for the journey from Huck. and the liquor prepared for the cloth, put it all into the rucksack on the saddle floor, and then patted the horse away.
Looking at Dean's departing back, it wasn't until he was completely gone, that Huck turned around and returned to the Knights' station.
"It takes about a week for the head of the regiment to go on some private business! And during this week, I'll be training you even more! ”
Looking at the young people gathered over, Huck immediately shouted mercilessly.
"Deputy Commander, how can this be?"
Suddenly, looking forward to Dean's departure. And the young people, who may have taken a small vacation, immediately wailed.
But. After being kicked twice in the ass by Huck, he trained one by one.
Obviously, a short vacation was important, but so was the steel cuirass.
……
"First go to the village of the cloth and give the white lanzhi essence to the cloth and then transfer it to Takri, according to the distance between the two villages, it will take about three days...... And this, three days is my time! ”
Dean, who was on the horse, quickly knew the time he had.
Three days, one is not very abundant, but if it is smooth, it is enough time for him to complete everything.
And what he needs now is to keep filling in the complete plan to minimize the chance of the unexpected happening.
Naturally, Dean spent the whole day thinking and hurrying like this.
When it was dark, Dean, who had been going all the way, began to see the stockade where Bu Gong was located.
"Dean! Dean! ”
When Dean identified himself from afar, Bu Gong, who was the patriarch of this barbarian village, ran out quickly to greet Dean.
"Next!"
And Dean naturally knew that the other party's enthusiasm was not just to welcome him, and he threw the bag containing the spirits that had been prepared a long time ago.
"Hahaha......"
Suddenly, the cloth gong let out a series of loud laughs.
After that, there was a series of sounds of the Adam's apple squirming up and down and swallowing.
When the swallowing stopped, the cockpit let out a long breath, followed by a series of laughter, and embraced Dean with the etiquette of a barbarian.
"Welcome, my brother!"
Slapping Dean the back, the hammer roared loudly.
"Long time no see!"
Although he knew the habits of the barbarians, Dean was still a little unaccustomed to them.
As for the title of 'brother'?
After Dean's overwhelming victory in a battle between the two sides, Bu Gong has always called Dean - in the barbarian tradition, the strong are always respected and recognized.
It's like now-
Dean didn't need to look for leftovers in the tent for outsiders, but went straight into the tent and feasted on the barbarians' traditional delicacies: oily, chunky, golden roasts and spirits.
The meat is naturally good.
The spirits, on the other hand, were obviously worse than those brought by Dean.
It's not that the barbarians don't care, it's just that the raw materials and methods of brewing are different.
"Do you know the Tacker of Checta?"
During the banquet, Dean, who was sitting cross-legged, asked directly.
"Of course I do! My brother, Takri, was the most famous woman in Chiktor, not only strong, but also hot-tempered...... A lot of men love her! ”
As he spoke, he looked at Dean with a strange look in his eyes, obviously misunderstood.
Dean immediately waved his hand again and again - although Dean was not a celibate, the women he needed were definitely not described as 'strong' and 'short-tempered' in the prefix, and Dean had always been insensitive to the aesthetics of barbarians.
"No, no, I'm just here to close a deal we didn't finish!"
At that moment, Dean recounted what happened in the Vauban-Citad store.
"Hahaha...... Worthy of being my brother, honest and reliable, much better than those bastard, cunning merchants! Leave this matter to me! ”
Butt laughed and raised his glass to Dean frequently.
And Dean did not refuse, and drank with the cloth until the other party was unconscious in the real sense.
People who love wine don't have to be massive.
Such words are very practical for barbarians.
In fact, if it weren't for their strong bodies, most of these barbarians would not have been able to drink some of the senior drunkards - although Dean was not a senior drunkard, his body was obviously stronger, even after just cutting some of them, compared to the cloth gong.
And with the Cloth Shovel drunk, Dean's welcome ceremony is over.
The next day, when Dean proposed to go to the nearby area to practice and store the horses temporarily, the barbarian patriarch was not really awake, but only vaguely said-
"I, I...... Will send the brandichi flavor to the Chicta! ”
"When you return, just put up a torch on the top of the stockade at night, and when the time comes, I will be back!"
Dean left with such a sentence and left in a hurry.
Although he knew where the Gaussians were going, he couldn't drag it out indefinitely.
After all, some arrangements are still indispensable!
