The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

"Sir Viscount, you are really a rare tailoring genius. If you become one..." Julis couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw Ren's rocket-like learning and mastering speed.

But soon, Julis realized that the person in front of her was a noble, the Viscount, not an apprentice in her tailor shop. It was quite inappropriate to praise him as a tailoring genius.

So, Julis quickly changed her words:

"No, no, Lord Viscount, I mean, no matter what skill it is, you learn it very quickly."

Renn waved his hand, not taking it seriously.

"Julis, I have a problem now, that is, the elasticity of my pants is not enough. How can I solve it?"

"The waistband can be solved with beef tendon or something like that, but the fabric doesn't seem to be very elastic."

"Because if the body expands, it will tear."

As soon as Ren finished speaking, the whole study was completely silent!

Expansion? !

Will it tear?

Lord Viscount, would you really like to talk to me about this?

Besides, this is too much praise for myself.

I've never heard of anyone being able to tear their underwear off.

Ren's harsh words made Julis, a woman with experience in that field, feel a bit overwhelmed at the moment, and her fair face immediately turned red.

The beautiful woman Jennifer who was standing by was also stunned when she heard this. Her beautiful eyes were swaying as she looked back and forth at Julis and Renn.

Um?

My dear, these words are too flirtatious, right?

The other person is about the same age as you, but his skin is not as good as yours, and his face is more dignified, which is different from your own style. Could it be that my dear, you really like him?

Wait, it should be the professional attributes of the other person that make my dear one more interested!

The beautiful woman's eyes immediately lit up.

She thought she'd hit on the key.

After all, this hobby is actually relatively common among the upper class.

Not to mention the nobility, even wealthy businessmen can often hear these scandals and gossips.

For example, a certain wealthy businessman likes to find maids for pleasure, or there are certain nobles who are particularly interested in female teachers. There is also the viscount she heard about last time who is only 1.6 meters tall and likes to find maids who are more than 1 meter tall. Eight women and so on.

Suddenly, Jennifer thought of a lot.

Seeing the expressions of the two mature women, Ren immediately came back to his senses. His words just now seemed a bit ambiguous, but he couldn't reveal his dragon transformation.

After thinking about it, Ren said: "Well, it's like this. When I fight, my muscles will expand, so I need underwear with better elasticity."

"That's it." Julis nodded, although she still didn't believe it in her heart.

After all, as a master tailor and not at the bottom of society, I have never heard of a great knight tearing his underwear when fighting.

"Um, Lord Viscount, how much does it expand to? It depends on the choice of material." Julis took a deep breath before she had the nerve to ask this question.

"At least twice as much, right?" Renn thought for a moment and said.

"Twice? Hmm. From the perspective of elasticity, silk has the best elasticity among all kinds of fabrics."

"However, relying solely on the elasticity of silk may still not be able to meet your requirements." After being shocked, Julis thought for a while and said.

"Is there no solution? No other materials?"

"Well, some animal skins have good elasticity, but when it comes to underwear, you still have to consider comfort."

Animal skin?

Ren thought for a while and decided to forget it.

It was so overwhelming that I panicked.

Moreover, the leather shorts easily reminded him of gigolos and the like, which were too fashionable.

"By the way, if you don't mind a different style, I have another suggestion. You can make the underwear pleated to avoid tearing, just like a pleated skirt."

Julis saw Ren's frown and came up with another idea.

"Are you adding wrinkles?" Renne quickly understood what Julis meant.

The waistband of the underwear is made of elastic material such as beef tendon, and even the silk fabric of the underwear cannot meet this elasticity requirement, so the only way is to add wrinkles.

Once the body expands, the underwear can make up for the lack of elasticity by smoothing out wrinkles.

Although the 'pleated underwear' seems a bit weird, it is better than being exposed after transforming!

Moreover, comfort is also taken into consideration.

"Julis, what a great idea."

Ren's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned to the beautiful woman and said, "Jennifer, have someone prepare some beef tendons right away. Let me try it."

"Ah? Oh, okay, Your Excellency Viscount." After hearing Ren talking to her, Jennifer came back to her senses. In addition, she still adhered to the title of Ren Ren in front of outsiders.

Jennifer left the study to prepare beef tendon, but Ren was not idle and began to carry out the previous process, proofing.

"Lord Viscount, please dig a hole in your underwear. This is..."

Julis looked surprised and thought to herself, Sir Viscount, you just praised yourself for being so big, but in order to avoid tearing your underwear, is it too exaggerated to dig a hole?

"Haha, this has a special purpose."

At this time, Julis really couldn't resist, especially at this time, Jennifer also went out to arrange for people to prepare beef tendon.

Although she has been through this before, she can’t resist such flirtation!

The face of Julis, the master tailor, was red at the moment.

It's just that Yulis observed the location of the hole that Ryan dug again, thinking, I know there is a special purpose, and this hole is too big, right?

Hey, why is this direction at the back?

"That. Viscount, did you draw the location of this hole the wrong way?" Yulis couldn't help but remind him.

"No, it's like this." Ryan shook his head naturally.

The tail is naturally behind the buttocks.

If it grows in front, is it still a tail? !

Suddenly, Yulis froze! His eyes were blank.

Soon, a bunch of beef tendons were delivered.

Since Ryan had already started the preparation work before, he soon completed the production of the first pair of beef tendon shorts.

And the system prompt also sounded:

[You have made beef tendon pleated silk shorts, and the relevant comprehension has been improved! ]

[You have comprehended a new skill - making beef tendon pleated silk shorts]

[Your skill in making beef tendon pleated silk shorts has been improved, experience value +5]

[Ding! The host has been detected to have innovated a tailoring product, triggering a job change - Tailor! ]

[Preconditions for promotion to Tailor are: 1. Tailor Apprentice lv3 full level; 2. Agility 5 points or more, Constitution 5 points or more; 3. Produce any ten qualified tailoring products! The current conditions are not met! Promotion to Tailor failed! ]

"Huh? Experience value +5?"

"Are the subsequent promotion conditions also triggered?"

"Innovation is indeed the primary productive force."

Ryan couldn't help but be overjoyed!

So, next, Ryan made ten pairs of cow tendon pleated shorts in succession, and the whole process changed from the original stumbling to smooth.

Julis was almost dumbfounded.

She vaguely felt that the young and handsome Viscount Ryan in front of her was not here to tease her, but was really learning to make underwear.

"My Lord Viscount, do you need to learn how to make clothes for other parts?" Julis couldn't help asking.

"No, by the way, let's stop here for today's tailoring training. Thank you for your hard work, Julis."

"Jennifer, send Julis off. I will practice making shorts for the next few days and learn other things later." Ryan said to Jennifer again.

"Okay, Lord Viscount."

After the two left, it took only half a day for Ryan to upgrade the tailor apprentice from lv1 to lv3 (127/500), gaining two attribute points and two skill points.

The seventy or eighty cow tendon pleated silk shorts piled up next to him were the fruits of Ryan's labor.

Adding his original remaining points, the total remaining attribute points are now 7 points, the remaining skill points are 6 points, and the gold skill points are still 23 points.

Just when Ryan was about to rush the tailor apprentice to the maximum level of lv3 in one go, there was a knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Lord Viscount, there is a visitor from Meyster County, Lord Hamady, at the door of the mansion." The servant said at the door.

"Viscount Hamadi? Eh? Why did he suddenly come to visit?" Ryan looked puzzled.

Although the other party was the boss of his former boss, he always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the other party, so he never had any in-depth exchanges.

"Please ask him to come to the reception room, I will come right away." After thinking about it, Ryan decided to meet him and listen to the other party's intentions.

In the reception room.

"Sir Ryan, long time no see." Hamadi said with a smile.

"Sir Hamadi, long time no see." Ryan smiled and used the name he used in Meister, which was quite polite.

"No, Sir Ryan, with your current reputation, I should call you Sir."

"I am sorry to bother you this time, but I was asked by someone." Hamadi laughed and put a dark brown wooden box on the coffee table. After opening it with a "click", he turned the wooden box to Ryan.

Hmm?

There were complex array patterns engraved in the wooden box. Three hexagonal crystals emitting energy fluctuations were neatly placed in the box. In addition, under the crystals, there was a letter.

Ryan looked at the three crystals in the wooden box with surprise.

Although he didn't know what it was.

But judging from the box and the items inside, it seemed very precious.

Moreover, this fluctuation could vaguely evoke a certain connection with mental power, as if this was.

Hamadi looked around, as if to confirm that there were only him and Ryan in the reception room, and then said with a smile:

"This is the lady of the special envoy Terena, who asked me to send it to Mr. Ryan."

"Special envoy Terena?" Ryan raised his eyebrows.

In an instant, he understood a lot of things. It turned out that Viscount Hamadi had always been a member of the Federation. He might be an insider or a noble who was won over.

No wonder, when he was in Meister, he always felt that the other party was a little bit wrong.

Originally, he once thought that the other party was a member of the resistance army, but it turned out that he was a member of the Federation.

However, Ryan did not understand the other party's intention, so he naturally could not accept the gift. He just waved his hand and said, "This is too valuable. I can't accept it."

"Sir Ryan, you might as well take a look at the handwritten letter from Envoy Trena first."

After thinking for a while, Ryan nodded and said, "Okay."

Then, Ryan took the letter out of the wooden box.

The red wax on the letter was intact. In addition, Ryan could feel that there seemed to be a faint witchcraft fluctuation in the envelope.

"Mr. Ryan, for confidentiality reasons, the letter will self-immolate after reading."

Hamadi, who was standing by, saw Ryan suddenly stop and immediately understood what was going on. At the same time, he also appreciated Ryan's caution and sharpness.

"I see."

Ryan nodded and opened the letter.

The content is as follows:

"Dear Mr. Ryan: Your strength and talent are among the few young people I have ever seen. The Eagle Federation welcomes you to settle down."

"If you are interested, I can guarantee that you will receive treatment and development prospects far beyond your current status in the Dragun Empire. At the same time, we will arrange for someone to secretly transfer your family to the Federation."

"Of course, if you don't have this intention for the time being, we also hope to maintain a good friendship and contact with you."

"In recent years, the Federation has developed rapidly and has far exceeded the imagination of many people in the Dragun Empire. For example, the Federation has achieved several times the output of soul crystals. I look forward to your joining the Federation as soon as possible."

"If you have any questions, you can contact and ask Hamadi."

"Here, I would like to present three soul crystals as a gift, Trena Hayden."

After a few seconds, the letter slowly burned with a light blue flame and quickly turned into ashes.

"Mr. Ryan, I have delivered the gift of the special envoy. I look forward to your contact. I think I should say goodbye." Hamadi stood up with a smile on his face and said.

"Okay, Viscount Hamadi, I'll take you there."

After Hamadi left, Ryan paced back and forth in the room, thinking about the other party's purpose this time.

"No wonder the Federation has developed so rapidly, and its infiltration into the Empire is very strong. Moreover, it has spared no effort to attract talents."

After seeing the four words "Soul Energy Crystal" in the letter, Ryan knew what these three hexagonal crystals were.

Generally speaking, those potions or items that can increase mental power are already very precious.

The preciousness of soul energy crystals is even higher, because its function is to promote the speed of mental power atomization and liquefaction.

Ryan had asked Olena before, but unfortunately there was no quota for soul energy crystals in the branch.

Of course, the headquarters in the imperial capital naturally has some, but they are also extremely precious.

In other words, if Ryan wants to exchange, he has to transfer to the Sword Bearer Headquarters.

"What's even more powerful is that sentence - 'The output of soul energy crystals is several times higher than before', which not only reveals the strength of the Federation, but also is a great temptation."

"If it weren't for my extremely fast atomization speed, I'm afraid it would be hard not to be tempted."

Ryan walked to the wooden box and picked up a soul energy crystal to look at it.

"Soul energy crystal, good stuff."

This is why Ryan did not refuse the other party's gift. At this stage, soul energy crystals are really useful for improving his strength.

Ryan glanced at the attribute panel:

Spirit: 62 (atomization 6%)

Spirit power increased from 60 to 62, one of which was the previous addition, and another one was the improvement effect of the advanced meditation method in the past few days.

The degree of atomization also increased by 1 percentage point.

After repeatedly checking the soul energy crystal again and confirming that there was no problem, Ryan immediately decided to use a soul energy crystal to see the effect.

This thing is also very simple to use, just hold it in your hand and run the meditation method.

A few minutes later

As Ryan started to use the Iron Heart Advanced Meditation Method, the soul energy crystal in his hand seemed to be resonated in some way, and a wisp of transparent breath emanated from it and quickly merged into Ryan's body.

Ryan felt that in the sea of ​​​​spirituality, the huge spiritual power was being slowly purified, and the silver mist became more and more.

At this time, the system prompt sounded:

[Ding! Soul energy crystals that can improve the degree of spiritual power atomization are detected. Is it accelerated to absorb? (Note: The system can remove impurities and can absorb all at once.)]

"Hmm? Remove impurities?"

"Can it be absorbed all at once?"

Ryan raised his eyebrows and thought to himself.

Just now, he also tried it. If he meditated for about half an hour every day, it would take him more than half a month to absorb such a thumb-sized soul energy crystal.

It is naturally a good thing that the system can absorb it instantly.

"And if the impurities can be removed, doesn't it mean that I can use it continuously?!"

Normally, although soul energy crystals are good, wizards use them for a period of time. When the impurities absorbed by the body reach a certain concentration, they need to stop for a period of time.

After the body eliminates the impurities in the soul energy crystals, it can be used again, and it cannot be used continuously.

Judging from the system prompt, Ryan should be able to absorb it continuously.

Without hesitation, Ryan immediately chose "Yes!"

In an instant, Ryan felt that the silver mist in his mind increased rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon reached nearly twice the size before.

This feeling is indescribably good.

The mental power is more refined. Compared with before, the same amount of mental power can mobilize more energy particles around.

Ryan glanced at the system panel:

Spirit: 62 (atomization 11%)

"Hiss~ Increased by 5% at one time? No wonder it is so precious!"

"The mental value is no longer decreasing. It seems that the previous impurities should be almost removed."

Seeing that the effect was so good, Ren thought about it and used the other two soul energy crystals in the wooden box.

Finally, the mental value on the attribute panel is displayed as: 62 (atomization 20%).

Based on the calculation that for every point in atomization level, the power of witchcraft increases by 0.5 points, the power of witchcraft currently performed by Renne has increased by about 10% compared to when he first switched to wizard.

Don't underestimate this percentage. Many times, the improvement of strength is achieved through the accumulation of such small steps.

Obviously, when the atomization level reaches 90%, the increase in the power of witchcraft will be very considerable, by about 50%.

As for why it can’t reach 100%?

Generally speaking, when the level of atomization of level one wizards reaches over 90%, they can choose to break through to level two liquefaction wizards.

Because the difficulty of mental power atomization is not linear, that is to say, the further you go, the harder it becomes.

This can be seen from the increase in the soul energy crystal just now, because it stands to reason that if each soul energy crystal is increased by 5%, Renn's current atomization level should be 21%. You guessed it right, but now it is only 20%. .

This shows that the degree of atomization is not linear, and will become more and more difficult in the later stages.

Renn tested several witchcrafts, and after feeling the increase in power, he once again focused his attention on his newly learned tailoring.

He planned to change his job as a 'tailor' as soon as possible. After all, he only had one final step left.

At this time, the knock on the door rang again.

"Please come in."

The person who came in was Olena, a capable young woman. She smiled and congratulated: "Sir Ren, I heard that you slayed the dragon yesterday? Congratulations, you have become a dragon-slaying hero."

"Thank you, has this matter spread throughout the world?" Renn couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Of course, this is a dragon slaying. Besides, not only us sword holders, but also the gryphon knights and the defenders of Breitsin all saw it. They were all helping you promote it."

"I think your reputation will soon spread to several nearby provinces." Olena covered her mouth and chuckled.

Ren couldn't help but shook his head and thought to himself, good intentions lead to bad things.

This shortens the time he can stay in Munster.

"By the way, Sir Ren, I have news about the people in Sam's group you asked me to investigate last time." Olena handed a stack of paper to Ren.

Ren nodded and compared Olena's information with the beautiful woman Jennifer's. It was basically correct.

"Perhaps, what you are more concerned about is the following news."

"Oh?" Ren couldn't help but look at Olena.

"Before, you asked me to focus on the news about the barbarian tribes in the Howling Tundra. It just so happened that an acquaintance of mine in the intelligence department at the Imperial Capital headquarters told me about a request for help he received in the Imperial Capital three days ago."

"Currently, the barbarian tribe is in a worrying situation!"

"Oh? Your Excellency Olena, please tell me in detail." Renn raised his eyebrows.

"Well, the barbarians on the Howling Tundra are mainly divided into two major tribes. One is the Norton tribe, also known as the Norton people, and the other is the Rich tribe, also known as the Rich people."

"Although I don't know which tribe you asked me to focus on last time, Mr. Ren, but judging from the intelligence, both tribes are not having a good time."

"Now the Black Flame Cult is rampant in the Howling Tundra. As a cult that worships fire and hunting, it has spread very quickly in the Howling Tundra. Many indigenous tribes have become followers of the Black Flame Cult."

"And the barbarian tribe is not weak, so fierce battles broke out with the Black Flame Cult one after another."

"But over time, the Black Flame Cult mobilized many strong men, which made the barbarian tribes unable to resist and retreated steadily. Therefore, some time ago, the barbarian tribes sought help from the empire, but currently, the empire has not Send the guardian there."

"Now, both barbarian tribes are migrating to more remote areas in the north of the tundra."

"Huh? It's the Black Flame Cult again, these haunting things." Renn narrowed his eyes and said.

"Isn't the empire taking action?"

"It will probably be difficult in a short period of time. The empire will definitely focus on the country. As for the windy tundra, it may not have time to take care of it."

Ren nodded. Indeed, under the current situation, the empire is likely to do this.

"By the way, Your Excellency Olena, after the barbarian tribe migrates, it should be much safer, right?" Renn couldn't help but ask.

"Uh, Sir Ren, I'm sorry, I didn't finish what I said just now. The problem now is that the north of the Wind Tundra is not stable either." Olena said apologetically.

"Huh?" Ren said with a raised eyebrow.

"It is said that an ancestral dragon named Corathius was resurrected from the glacier in the far north not long ago. It is currently expanding its territory and gathering its relatives. It is said that several large northern furbolg tribes have taken the initiative to join the army."

"If these two barbarian tribes continue to migrate, they will definitely be noticed by each other."

Olena's words immediately made Ren's expression cloudy.
