In Chapter 161, the Duke took a pencil, put a little on the map, and then sketched a small area, and said: "I have given you the title of Pioneer Knight, and you know that the title is nothing more than a piece of paper to allow you to fight in my name." However, the Pioneer Knight is not a true nobleman, and for the convenience of the future, I will give you another knighthood. As for titles, the family lineage you inherited is good, so you can be considered a member of the real nobility. As for the higher titles, you need to fight for them yourself. This place is your Sir territory, and you can see if there is anything that needs to be added. ”

Richard stood at the edge of the map, carefully looking at the area outlined by the duke.

It was a land of several kilometers in circumference, encompassing the original village of Bran, and was the junction of the three regions of the Redwood Kingdom, the Land of Unrest, and the Land of Blood. A third of the area is mountainous, with a small river running through the middle of the territory, flanked by farmland on both sides. However, Richard was more interested in the fact that the main road leading to the hinterland of the kingdom led to guò from the edge of the territory, while in the mountains, iron, copper, coal, and redwood trees were marked. They all look like ordinary deposits, but most of them are in an unexplored or even unexplored state, and no one knows how much underground ore vein reserves there are. However, Richard learned a lot about minerals when he was in Deep Blue, and knew that the depths of ordinary ore veins were likely to be accompanied by some rare minerals, and he hoped that the veins of this plane also had this property. As for the Sequoia Tree, it is the most famous specialty of the Sequoia Kingdom, which combines toughness and hardness, and has a good compatibility with magic. It can be used to craft magic bows, weapons, ships, and more.

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

"Thank you for taking care of you!" said Richard.

Duke Blue Wolf waved his hand and said, "It's just a trivial matter. I also hope that you can get off to a faster start and eventually build a career here. Time is important!"

The Duke's last sentence was a little louder, and Richard knew exactly what he meant. Perin is now equivalent to a seventy-year-old man, if you extrapolate according to the aging process of the previous five years, he will age ten years old almost every year, and it is impossible for him to become a powerhouse in the Holy Realm, so optimistically, it will only last for three years at most.

"Alright, it's getting late, Richard, you can stay at Deep Rock Castle for one more night, and we'll have dinner in the evening. I'd like to introduce you to a few of my sons and partners. Now, let's talk about builds. ”

This time, at Richard's request, the place to try out the build was in the Magical Chamber of the Duke's Chief Mage. The Duke's Chief Mage was a rank fourteen great mage who was exceptionally accomplished in magical potions, so he had a large number of friends and apprentices. He was already over fifty years old, so when he saw the young Richard, he couldn't help but look a little strange.

Richard gave a brief introduction to the Duke's build, which is a universal power-amplifying build with six locations where mana crystals can be implanted. When fully implanted, the crystals provide a 20% strength bonus for three months. After replenishing the Crystal four times, the build will be damaged and will need to be replaced with a new one.

"20% power! That's a huge increase! It's unbelievable. The Duke said as he took off his robe, revealing a body of muscles knotted like a steel wire. He stood peacefully in front of Richard, and the aura of the strong man was faintly revealed. Richard cast the prepared detection spell on the Duke.

With a soft bang, the duke's whole body lit up with a misty light, so that Richard, who had always been able to control himself well, couldn't help but tremble his hands slightly. The Duke's carrying capacity is very strong, and he has as many as six construction positions on his body, which fully meets the conditions of a third-order construction knight, and can be equipped with two fourth-order construction positions. If all of them can be loaded, then the Duke will immediately reach the level of the Thirteen Knights of Gordon!

The Duke saw the change in Richard's expression, stretched his body, and asked very casually, "What, am I not suitable for loading the structure?"

"No, it has nothing to do with the build, I'm shocked by your strength. I didn't expect your true strength to surpass that of the powerhouse of Zhenguo!" Richard said with a fixed mind.

The duke smiled slightly when he heard this, but did not say anything.

However, the chief mage of the duke looked at Richard with a strange face again, you know, Richard is only eleven ranks, and the duke level. It is not uncommon to know the level of the Duke with magic detection techniques, but it is impossible for the chief mage to be able to accurately take effect beyond such a large level difference and detect the upper limit of the Duke's strength.

Richard, on the other hand, tried to keep his movements as natural as possible, turned around and began to get busy at his workbench. After using the reconnaissance technique, he realized that the Duke was actually close to level nineteen, so he replaced the secret of carrying capacity and construction position with this relatively minor secret to him. In order to push the fragile alliance steadily in the direction he needs, every move in front of a strong man like the Duke, who is almost discerning, needs to be given a reasonable explanation.

Richard prepared the mixed magic solvent, then took out the construction inserts from the sealing box, and embedded the magic crystals in the corresponding positions in front of the duke. After the bursts of magic light flashed, the light in the magic crystal condensed into shining and crystalline spots in the magic array. The magic crystal in Richard's hand was half less in size, and it became gray and gloomy.

Before loading the structure, Richard said solemnly: "Your Excellency, I have a point to explain about this power build. Since I didn't know your strength traits and Dou Qi traits before, in order to prevent accidents, this construct is based on safety and not affecting the operation of the loader's original Dou Qi martial arts. Therefore, in terms of power bonus, it is a bit worse than a build that needs to be tailored and change the power operation of the bearer accordingly. In addition, this build uses mana crystals as the main source of mana, which can be used for about a year and a half. It has the advantage of not having to absorb the bearer's Dou Qi energy, so it will not be burdened when fighting. The downside is that the build bonus is reduced and lasts about half as long as a power-driven build. ”

The Duke smiled and said, "It's okay. Moreover, you are very thoughtful. ”

A big man like Duke Wolf, who combines personal force and power, will never allow Richard to change his fighting spirit and power until he has established full trust. Only in Norland, where the construction has become an indispensable part of the strength of every strong man, and it is also an extremely important part of the knowledge system of the strong, will he calmly accept the construction drawn directly.
