The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

In the afternoon.

Olena found Wren again.

This can't help but make Ren a little confused. He feels that the other person is not like the undersecretary of the mission hall, but more like his personal secretary. He visits him several times a day.

"Sir Ren, in the morning, I suddenly remembered why you were still in the freshman building."

"So, I immediately contacted the people in the logistics department, and then I discovered that the office had not yet had time to convey the news that you had identified it as a diamond star."

Olena told the story with a smile on her face, adding a little courtesy at the right time, which made it hard not to feel good about her.

"Now we have arranged it for you. According to your Diamond-level treatment, the new suite is arranged over the training ground and opposite the training building. It is also the suite with the best conditions in the branch."

"suite?"

"Yes, Sir Ren, it has a bedroom, a living room and even an indoor training room, everything is available."

Ren nodded. He didn't expect that diamond-level sword wielders would be treated so well.

"Look, how about you move there now?"

Ren thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll trouble you, Olena."

When he heard that there was a training room, Renn was quite excited. After all, some of his moves were not easy to use in a public training room.

The other one is that as the captain of the sword wielding team, he now convenes team members for gatherings or meetings. The current freshman dormitory is too small.

When Ren nodded in agreement, Olena waved, and two tall guards came from the end of the corridor to help move things.

Actually, there isn't much in Rennes, but there are a lot of trophy weapons in the cupboard.

Under the leadership of Olena, several people walked towards the distribution training field.

"By the way, Your Excellency Renn, don't forget the investiture ceremony held at the Münster Administration Hall this Sunday."

"By the way, if this takes place in a few months, it's very likely that you won't just be a viscount, but a count." Olena smiled.

"Thank you, Your Excellency Olena, you are overly complimentary." Renn smiled and said nothing more.

On Sunday.

That's still six days.

Suddenly, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground came from behind.

"Plop!"

I saw only one guard, with a red face and red ears. He raised his blue and white war hammer again, "Hmph!"

Ren was speechless, smiled, turned around and walked over, picking up the war hammer with one hand.

"Just help me get the other weapons." Ren said casually.

"Okay, thank you Lord Ren."

The guard looked at Ren with gratitude and was stunned at the same time.

This hundreds of pounds of war hammer seemed like nothing in Lord Ren's hands, being carried easily.

Only then did he understand why the young Lord Ren in front of him was a diamond-level sword wielder.

When Renn walked into the diamond-star suite on the third floor, he couldn't help but marvel at the excellent accommodation conditions prepared by the Sword Bearer Branch for the diamond-star captain.

Sure enough, as Olena said, the kitchen, living room, bedroom and training room are all available. Moreover, there is a dedicated service team in the corridor responsible for some tasks similar to housekeeping services.

Of course, you will only come in if the owner of the room rings the bell.

Naturally, Renne took a look at the training room at the first glance.

It is spacious, bright, and transparent from front to back. It contains training dummies, archery targets, and all kinds of weapons. The ground has also been specially reinforced.

Generally speaking, it is not much different from the training room in Earl Habsburg's mansion.

In this regard, Ren nodded with satisfaction.

A few hours later.

The private training room of Rennes’ new house.

I saw Renn standing at ease in the middle of the open field, surrounded by three dark kite-shaped shields, and opposite, Vieri was holding a two-handed sword with a serious face.

The next second!

Vieri exerted force on his toes and quickly circled Rennes, looking for flaws.

good chance!

The gap between the two shields here is a bit big!

Vieri narrowed his eyes, and his hand movements were not sloppy at all, and it was a cross slash!

"Clang!"

it is a pity!

All in vain!

The two swift and fierce slashes were all blocked by the kite-shaped shield.

This made Vieri feel a little discouraged.

He clearly felt that there were flaws all over Ren's body, and the gap between the two kite-shaped shields just now was big enough, which should be a good opportunity for him to slash in with his two-handed sword.

But when his big sword struck down.

In an instant, the speed of the kite-shaped shield suddenly accelerated, and it happened to be blocked in his slashing path.

Vieri tried this several times, no matter whether he went around to Rennes' rear, side or frontal attack, it had no effect.

It is simply an iron wall!

Desperate!

Renn, on the other hand, crossed his arms and pointed out problems in Vieri's swordsmanship from time to time.

With his level of Arcadia Swordsmanship level 16 or above, he would have no problem instructing Vieri on his two-handed sword.

Vieri is currently his only follower. While asking the other party to cooperate in improving his 'metal barrier' proficiency, Renne also pointed out the minor problems with the opponent's two-handed sword, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

The red-haired beauties Evelin, Neoro and Angus, who were watching from the sidelines, were whispering at this moment.

"Captain Renne's witchcraft 'Metal Barrier' is too defensive. I guess there's nothing I can do about it." Angus thought hard and shook his head.

He specializes in sword and shield. Although he is stronger than Vieri in terms of strength, he is only about the same as Vieri in terms of attack power.

After all, Vieri is a two-handed sword, and his attack power is naturally stronger than that of a one-handed sword.

"Neoro, do you know the witchcraft of "Metal Barrier"? It's a bit too powerful." Angus asked with his head tilted.

"The power is indeed extraordinary! It feels much stronger than the power of ordinary elemental defense witchcraft. Logically, it shouldn't be!" Neoro also frowned and thought.

"If it's not that the elemental affinity is extremely high, then there is only one explanation."

"What explanation?" Angus immediately looked at Neoro.

Hearing this, Evelyn's beautiful eyes couldn't help but look over curiously.

"This may be related to the metal used by Lord Ryan." Neoro had a clear expression.

"I don't know if you have noticed that Lord Ryan's dark kite-shaped shield is made of a special metal called hardened fine gold, which has very high hardness and toughness."

"Even for a peak knight, it is really difficult to break it." Neoro on the side thought he had pointed out the key point.

However, soon, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Because he immediately remembered something.

At this moment, Lord Ryan, who was standing in the center of the venue and defending like a barrier, was actually best at attacking.

"Neoro, if you use witchcraft to attack, can you break Lord Ryan's metal barrier?" Angus asked.

"Difficult! Do you see the dark silver metal on Lord Ryan's forearm?"

"See, what is this?" Angus looked thoughtful, and he seemed to have some impression.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be magic thorium. This metal has a very high resistance to all elemental energies."

"That is to say, if Lord Ryan faces a wizard, he will most likely use magic thorium to deal with it." Neoro crossed his arms and said.

"Hiss~ Magic thorium! But this... How many merit points does it take for such a large piece?" Angus had served in the army before, so he naturally knew and had seen magic thorium.

However, most of the time, magic thorium is used as a special coating, with a thin layer of coating.

Who has ever seen such a large piece like the one on Ryan's forearm.

Moreover, how many merit points does it take to redeem it!

Hearing this, Evelyn's beautiful eyes were already shining.

"Angus, don't forget. Captain Ryan completed a diamond star plus four gold-level tasks. Do you think he will lack merit points?"

When Neoro said this, he did not forget to glance at the red-haired beauty Evelyn.

In fact, he had one more thing he hadn't said.

Just to send people, he gave away three silver evaluation medals and two thousand merit points.

I'm afraid that their captain has at least tens of thousands of merit points, so exchanging some magicized thorium is nothing.

Originally, they didn't know that Ryan had completed the diamond-level mission.

It was not until just now when Ryan invited them to exchange and compete that they found out that this was a suite with diamond-level treatment!

This is located in a three-story building next to the training ground.

The entire third floor, covering an area of ​​more than 8,000 square meters, has only less than 20 suites. It is the place where the entire Sword Bearer Munster branch arranges diamond-level captains.

Each suite has a small training room, bedroom, dining room, reception room, etc.

In addition, there is a special housekeeping service team in the corridor, which can be summoned by ringing the bell 24 hours a day.

When they arrived just now, they were stunned!

In comparison, their new dormitory is completely a shabby room.

"Angus, it's your turn."

Vieri was panting with his two-handed sword, but he still didn't even touch Ryan's sleeve.

In a high-speed full-strength battle, even a great knight would use up most of his physical strength within ten minutes and need to rest and adjust.

"Okay!" Angus was excited, holding his sword and shield and knocking twice, and stepped forward.

Angus didn't know before, until just now when he was chatting with him, he found out that Ryan could actually give him a lot of suggestions on the coordination of sword and shield moves.

This surprised him greatly!

Because Angus had always thought that Ryan was specialized in two-handed warhammer and greatsword, he had never expected that the other party also dabbled in sword and shield.

No, the word dabbled cannot be used, but proficient.

Ryan's proficiency in sword and shield is likely to be no less than his.

After more than ten minutes, Angus, holding a sword and shield, was also panting and sweating all over.

At this time, Neoro tightened the short staff in his hand and walked forward.

Seeing Neoro, Ryan smiled slightly and slowly cast the innate magic "Metal Transfiguration", retracting the original three-sided hardened fine gold kite shield and covering the left and right knight's gauntlets and forearms.

The original magic silver on the forearm was transformed into a dark silver kite shield.

Of course, this process took nearly ten seconds.

It's not that Ryan deliberately concealed it, but it was too troublesome to explain.

He thought that after the level of the metal barrier was improved and the speed of casting was greatly accelerated, it would be so real that it would be difficult to tell which one was the innate magic.

Seeing this, Neoro couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Captain Ryan, you are too targeted!"

The red-haired beauty Evelyn heard this and couldn't help but burst into laughter, shaking for a while.

And Angus and Vieri also laughed.

After the exchange with Neoro, Ryan, who had fought three people in a round-robin battle, retracted the witchcraft 'metal barrier' and temporarily came to an end.

He glanced at the Warhammer Wizard (Legend) profession panel. Thanks to the strong cooperation of Neoro and the other three who had just joined the team, his witchcraft metal barrier had reached level 2 (218/300) at this moment.

The improvement speed is quite gratifying!

Judging from the current turbulent situation, Ryan initially planned to upgrade it to level 3, and then use skill points to directly upgrade it to quickly form combat effectiveness.

Several people sat around the tea table to rest.

The waiter in the corridor respectfully poured the tea, put the snacks, and quickly left the room.

"Tsk tsk, Lord Ryan, your treatment as a diamond-star captain is beyond words." Angus said enviously.

Ryan smiled slightly and said, "Do you know what happened last night?"

"Lord Ryan, are you referring to the evil spirit attack that happened yesterday?" Neoro raised his eyebrows and said.

"So it was an evil spirit attack last night?" Vieri and Angus looked at each other, and they were suddenly enlightened.

Evelyn stared at Ryan with her beautiful eyes, as if waiting for his next words.

Ryan looked at several people.

It seems that Neoro, as a noble descendant of Munster, is very well-informed.

It's not that Vieri and Angus are not sensitive enough, but by the time they noticed something, the battle was over.

Yesterday's battle lasted less than two minutes and ended.

"It's not just the evil spirit attack, there is another thing, Archbishop Gomes was assassinated." Ryan said a heavy news.

"What!" Several people's faces changed.

Those present were either descendants of nobles or military backgrounds, so they naturally understood the status and strength represented by the Archbishop of the Goddess Church.

The assassination of such a big man meant something, it goes without saying!

"Please keep this matter confidential for the time being. The main purpose of telling you this is that if your family has not moved to Munster yet, you should hurry up."

"It is very likely that the situation in the empire is more turbulent than expected." Ryan looked at them seriously.

Now they are all teammates of a team, and Ryan revealed this news to them at the right time.

"My family has moved some people here. But my father is a feudal noble and cannot leave Rossby County." Evelyn nodded and said.

"I am the only one in my family." Vieri shrugged and looked at Ryan.

"Huh? Just you?"

"Yes, my mother died of illness a long time ago, and my father was a colonel in the empire. He died in a battle to suppress a ferocious beast." Vieri said with a bit of loss in his tone.

"Vieri, if you don't mind, you can move to my mansion." Ryan said.

"Is this okay?" Vieri showed a look of joy, but there was a hint of hesitation.

"Of course." Ryan nodded and said.

Ryan had this idea before, but his family background was still a little shallow. Apart from him, there was no fighting power to show off.

Now that Vieri has a follower, the situation has improved a lot.

"I will contact my family right away. My family is in Cantal County, and the situation is similar to Evelyn. My father cannot leave as a feudal noble, but others can." Angus nodded and said.

"Sir Ryan, have you heard about what happened up there recently?" Neoro suddenly thought of something, pointed his finger up there, and said a little mysteriously.

"Imperial capital?" Ryan raised his eyebrows and said.

"Well, I heard that for some reason, the top strongmen in each province were transferred to the imperial capital." Neoro said in a low voice.

He just happened to hear the Marquis' father mention this matter, which should be a top secret of the empire.

"Are you sure? Is there also one in Munster?"

"Sure, there is one in Munster." Neoro nodded.

Ryan suddenly understood a little bit, it should be something important happened in the imperial capital, involving the high-end combat power of the empire.

But what exactly is it that will involve the high-end combat power of the empire for a long time?

This made him a little confused for a while.

However, this news should be true.

Evelyn told him yesterday that Neoro is one of the five marquises of Munster, the second son of Marquis Wenger.

As the second son of a marquis, the source of information is naturally more informed and extensive.

After several people left, Ryan began to study the inscription.

After Neoro's teaching, Ryan basically mastered the "primary defense inscription" in the inscription.

Because his innate witchcraft is metal deformation, it also makes it much easier for him to engrave inscriptions on plate armor than others.

Even if he does not use the bonus points, the efficiency is dozens of times that of others.

Ryan's carving knife scratched the plate armor, as easy as carving on a candle, smooth and silky.

The metal particles seemed to automatically disperse according to his will.

Moreover, Ryan also experimented a little bit and found that the knight's breastplate engraved with the 'primary defense inscription' has a defense ability that is about 10% higher than the breastplate without the inscription.

Don't underestimate this 10%, which also includes the defense against elemental energy.

In other words, the effect of the 'primary defense inscription' is all-round.

On the other hand, Ryan also learned that the inscription on the 'mithril carved plate armor' is actually called the 'primary energy inscription'.

An inscription that can enhance the efficiency of energy conduction of various systems.

Now, he plans to start trying to make the 'mithril carved plate armor'.

Due to the special nature of Ryan's innate witchcraft, he does not need to go to the blacksmith shop to do this.

'Knock, knock, knock! '

There was a knock on the door.

Ryan opened the door and saw Olena appear again.

"Sir Ryan, the last evil spirit incident has been investigated. According to the ancient books of the Goddess Church, this evil spirit is likely to originate from an evil object, an oil painting called 'Gazing Eyes'."

"When everyone arrived, there was a painting missing from the gallery, which should be this 'Gazing Eyes'."

Ryan glanced at Olena's serious face and said, "The painting was not found?"

"Yes, but the trouble is not just that." The capable young woman Olena nodded.

"According to the records of the Goddess Church, this 'Gazing Eyes' has the ability to summon other evil spirits to come after absorbing enough soul energy."

Ryan raised his eyebrows and said, "So, the evil spirit that day was not in its strongest state?"

"That's right, Sir Ryan." Olena nodded.

Hearing Olena's words, Ryan nodded, thinking.

——

At the same time.

Munster Administrative District Airship Platform.

As an airship from the imperial capital docked.

Soon, a group of three people walked down.

The leader was a middle-aged man in a gray robe, holding a fiery red cane and with a deep breath.

On his left was a very sturdy man, more than two meters and three meters tall, carrying a huge shield.

On the right was a charming woman with some kind of purple eye shadow, a clear scorpion pattern on her forehead, and a curvy figure.

"Mr. Asimov, you are finally here." Draco and Fabien, who had been waiting nearby, came forward and greeted them warmly.

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Mr. Draco, I've been waiting for a long time."

After a simple greeting, the group of people gathered and got on several luxurious carriages and headed towards the headquarters of the Münster branch of the Axon Auction House.

In the reception room on the second floor of the auction house.

Draco and the three members of the Bloodtop Mercenary Group were chatting about something.

"By the way, what big thing is going to happen in the imperial capital?" Draco thought of the content of his brother Marquis Orenz's letter and couldn't help asking.

Asimov looked around and shook his head and said:

"We only know that it is related to the one in the empire, and the specific content is not clear. In the past two days, the top strongmen from various provinces and special departments of the empire have been transferred to the imperial capital."

"It seems to be to deal with some risks, or troubles."

"Let's not talk about this. By the way, Mr. Drake, tell us about the situation of Ryan. Grant and Elihu both died in the hands of each other."

Grant and Elihu, although not descendants of the bloodline family, have good talents and are considered important members of the Bloodtop Mercenary Group. They were previously responsible for control, attack, and reconnaissance and assassination.

"By the way, I just saw patrol personnel on the street. The density is very high? Has Minster always attached so much importance to safety?" A charming voice sounded.

"This. Not really. It's just that a special incident happened in the past two days. The Archbishop of the Goddess Church of Minster was assassinated, so the patrol force has been strengthened several times."

Drak briefly explained the matter.

"Is that so? That's not going to be easy." The Scorpion Girl nodded and said.

"No, that's not necessarily a bad thing. If we cause casualties, we can blame it on the Black Flame Cult." Asimov thought for a moment and said.

"That's right, but the difficulty of this mission is to get the opponent's heart blood. This can only be best if it is taken while the opponent is alive." The Scorpion Girl chuckled.
