The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

"Thank you, Marquis Javier." Ryan smiled and bowed to express his gratitude.

"The awarding ceremony will be held after His Majesty the Emperor has fully recovered, and the time will be notified separately."

"Okay." Ryan nodded.

At this time, Javier gestured to an attendant beside him, and the man smiled and said:

"Count Ryan, the Conferment Committee has reserved a new mansion for you in the second ring of the imperial capital in consideration of your position as an Imperial Gold-level Sword Bearer, with a relatively spacious training room."

"Whenever you are free, you can go and sign for it at any time."

"Thank you."

Ryan noticed Javier's actions just now, and naturally understood that this should be a slight push from Marquis Javier.

You should know that although there are a small number of earl mansions in the second ring of the imperial capital, most of them are marquis mansions, and most of the mansions allocated to the newly promoted earls are in the third ring, which is similar to the location of his current mansion.

Not to mention the spacious training room, it must be the result of someone deliberately showing goodwill. A little thought will tell that it must be the work of Marquis Javier who serves on the Canonization Committee next to him.

After the official procedures were completed, Javier did not stay for long because of the presence of other entourages, but just made an appointment with Ryan to get together.

"Count Ryan, then we will not disturb you! Congratulations again!"

"Thank you, Marquis Javier, thank you, Your Excellencies." Ryan stood up to see him off and smiled.

After Javier and his party left, Ryan thought for a moment and decided to take over the new mansion first.

Because he was going on a long journey this time, if the mansion was moved to the second ring of the imperial capital where the high-level nobles lived, the security would naturally be improved.

In addition, the Ereda sisters, whose strength has reached the peak of legend, are stationed in the mansion, so it should be safe.

He also did not have to worry about the future.

So, Ryan called the Ereda sisters and their families, and a total of three carriages headed towards the new mansion.

Mother Emma and father Old Ryan were a little confused at first, until they heard the story of the little Matteo, they knew that their son was promoted to the earl of the empire, and they were shocked immediately.

It has been less than a year since he was promoted to viscount, and he has become an earl again?

The two old people couldn't help but look at each other, but Little Mint's eyes were bright. He always thought that his brother Ryan was the best, and it was natural for him to be promoted to earl.

Although the second and third rings are adjacent, both the greening beauty and the patrol frequency have been upgraded to a higher level, which fully reflects the hierarchical differences in the empire, and clearly distinguishes the treatment of high-level nobles above the earl and middle- and low-level nobles such as viscounts and barons.

After a while, everyone arrived at the destination.

I saw that Ryan's new mansion covers a large area, with front and back gardens. The front yard is slightly larger, where the main building and auxiliary building are located, and the back yard is slightly smaller, where the stables are located.

The Erida sisters looked at each other, and the sisters immediately telepathically said:

"Sister, I originally felt that Lord Ryan's mansion was a bit mismatched compared to his strength, but this mansion is quite impressive."

"Well, according to Lord Ryan's strength, I actually think he should live in the inner ring. But we should talk about this privately, and remember not to tell others, otherwise people will misunderstand."

"Yeah, sister, I know, I'm not stupid."

It's no wonder that Erida had complained before, because the original mansion of Ryan had only a small lawn and the training room was not big enough. For her, practicing extraordinary combat skills was really a bit cramped.

At this time, little Mint ran over with a smile and said, "Sister Erida, why are you smiling so happily?"

After two days, Mint had already become friends with the Erida sisters.

She was curious and a little reserved about the two twin sisters at first, but after getting to know them, she found that they were easy to get along with, especially the lively Elida, who became familiar with them immediately.

Elida and Mint have a particularly close relationship.

"Little Mint, because sister has a bigger place to play with you." Elida pinched Mint's delicate and tender face with both hands, and said rather dotingly.

"Oh, sister Elida, you are good in everything, but can you please not pinch my face? It won't look good if you pinch it too much!"

"No, no! Little Mint is the prettiest."

"Hehe, really? Sister Elida is so nice. By the way, I just heard from my brother that there is a very large training room on the first floor of the main building. Sister Elida, when will you teach me the war blade?" Mint smiled and said.

As Mint grew up, she also became interested in combat skills, of course selectively, and she was particularly interested in "beautiful" combat skills.

For example, Elida's combat blade, the gorgeous knife flowers that were swung up made Mint dazzled for the first time.

"Okay, if you like it, I'll teach you." Elida agreed.

Although Elida wondered why Lord Ryan didn't teach his own sister, at first, she thought there was some deep meaning, but later she found out that it was not.

The key to the problem lies with Mint. She is more interested in gorgeous fighting skills, but has little interest in her brother's low-key but extremely practical extraordinary fighting skills.

Sure enough, girls are emotional creatures most of the time!

Of course, it's not that Ryan's extraordinary fighting skills are not gorgeous enough, but his gorgeous ones are not something that ordinary people can perform, but knife flowers are different. Ordinary people can also do it after they become proficient.

An hour later, everyone who had finished the visit, including Ryan's mother Emma, ​​was very satisfied with the new mansion and decided to move in immediately.

This was naturally the best thing for Ryan, saving the trouble of persuasion. Soon, the servants and guards began to move.

Ryan found a gap and told the two sisters Erida some things:

"I plan to go to Ferdinand Forest tomorrow, so you don't have to go. You are responsible for the safety of the new mansion."

"In the imperial capital, it is difficult for the people of the Secret Snake Cult to make any big moves, so there should be no big problem with safety. You have just left the Secret Snake Cult, so it is safer to stay in the imperial capital for a while."

Hearing Ryan's words, the two sisters couldn't help but move in their hearts, looked at each other, and felt a little warmth.

"Thank you, Lord Ryan, but do you really not need any manpower here?" Erida couldn't help asking.

"The Sword Bearer Headquarters is responsible for the logistics of this operation. It is convenient for me to go alone." Ryan smiled slightly and said.

"Well, Lord Ryan, then you should be careful. If you need support, please write to me at any time." Sister Elida said.

But as soon as she said it, she suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing.

After all, if Ryan couldn't solve the enemy, then the two sisters would just be sending food.

"Pooh! Pooh! Sorry, Lord Ryan, I said the wrong thing! Lord Ryan wishes you a safe journey!" Elida quickly changed her words.

"Thank you!" Ryan said with a smile.

He didn't mind Elida's straightforwardness.

After getting along for a while, he found that it seemed that because Elida's extraordinary combat skills were biased towards speed, sometimes her hands turned faster than her brain, and as for her mouth, it was faster than her hands!

After explaining some things to his family, Ryan planned to go to the headquarters. He wanted to test the power of the new witchcraft, so naturally he had to go to the witchcraft test room at the headquarters.

Soon, Ryan took a carriage to the Sword Bearer headquarters.

Under the guidance of the young female staff, Ryan came to the third-level witchcraft test room with familiarity.

"Lord Ryan, if you have any other needs, please call me at any time."

"Okay, thank you." Ryan nodded and said.

"It's my honor to serve you!" The young female staff smiled and bowed, and took the initiative to close the door.

After the female staff left, Ryan did not test immediately, but began to release "Metal Transfiguration", "Cutting Net" and "Sawtooth Ring" repeatedly to experience the connection between them.

Since Metal Transfiguration has long been a natural witchcraft, the latter two have also reached lv20, and the proficiency is beyond words.

So, soon, Ryan grasped the trick of how to release the three in series.

At the same time, the system prompt also sounded:

[Ding! The host comprehends the prototype of the crystallization killer move. Yes/No consume 79 gold skill points to deduce and perfect it? ]

"Hiss, it actually consumes 79 points." Ryan couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Because these three witchcrafts can form a crystallized killing move without additional deduction, it seems that the deduction perfection expressed by the system also includes the content of personal adaptability changes, but it is precisely because of this that Ryan feels that the consumption of gold skill points is too much.

However, Ryan seemed to understand something and suddenly laughed.

"Because if the greater the consumption, the stronger the killing move, then there is nothing wrong with it. It is a good thing to consume more gold skill points."

Ryan remembered that the previous deduction of the liquefied killing move "Multiple Cutting Nets" only consumed 42 gold skill points, and this time, it consumed nearly twice as much. It is very likely that there will be a surprise waiting for him.

As the points were added, a surging torrent of witchcraft training memories poured into Ryan's mind in an instant, as if he had been practicing the coordination of these three witchcrafts repeatedly in a mysterious space for more than a hundred years!

When Ryan opened his eyes again, his understanding of the correlation between these three witchcrafts had become one.

[Ding! Deduction successful! The host comprehends the metal-based third-level combination witchcraft "Sawtooth Cutting Net"! 】

"Finally, I have my own crystallized killer move." After Ryan carefully comprehended the new killer move, he immediately showed joy on his face.

Before, he only had one liquefied killer move "Multiple Cutting Nets", and no other witchcraft killer moves. Of course, there is another third-level attack witchcraft "Thorn Iron Ball".

But the power of the former is top-notch if it is placed at the level of a second-level liquefied wizard, but if it is placed among a third-level crystallized wizard, it is only equivalent to the power of an ordinary third-level witchcraft.

As for the latter, it is more of a single attack. Although it is powerful, it is not flexible enough. Even though Ryan has upgraded it to lv20, this witchcraft is straight and easy to be dodged by the enemy. It needs to be combined with the "Metal Cage" to fully exert its power.

But now it is different.

This crystallized killer move "Sawtooth Cutting Net" is far superior to the previous two in terms of power and attack flexibility.

"The first-level innate magic 'Metal Transfiguration', the second-level magic 'Cutting Net' and the third-level magic 'Sawtooth Ring' are released continuously to form a combination magic: Sawtooth Cutting Net!"

Ryan couldn't hold back his excitement and immediately started to try.

"First-level magic Metal Transfiguration!"

"Second-level magic Cutting Net!"

"Third-level magic Sawtooth Ring!"

"Crystallization Killer Move: Sawtooth Cutting Net!"

As Ryan quickly chanted the spell, he saw six serrated metal rings suddenly appear in front of him, making a 'buzzing' sound and spinning at high speed.

The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6@9书#. Please go to 69书吧 to read it!

The metal jagged ring is silver in color and about two meters in diameter. Renn can quickly adjust its direction with a slight thought. In terms of attack range, it is much larger than the previous liquefied ultimate move 'Multiple Cutting Nets'.

In addition, according to the information given by Nahamadi, the crystallized ultimate move 'Zigzag Cutting Net' should normally consist of four metal zigzag rings, but Renn was able to display six.

This is most likely a special situation due to his super metal element affinity and the bonus of the three-layer Iron Heart advanced meditation method.

As for the power, you will know it after you try it.

With a wave of Ren's right hand, six buzzing and rotating metal jagged rings attacked the metal cylinder directly in front of him one after another!

"Chi! Chi! Chi!"

The originally flat section of the giant metal block was instantly marked with six criss-crossing cutting marks, and then, several loud sounds of "Boom! Boom!" were heard.

The metal cylinder weighing several tons was actually cut into several sections and fell to the ground.

And on the stone slab next to it, there was a numerical value clearly displayed that made Renn very speechless——? ? ? .

"Three question marks? Is this an explosion?" Renn was a little speechless. He didn't expect that the level three witchcraft testing room couldn't test the upper limit of the witchcraft power of his new killing move.

"Dong dong dong!"

There was a rapid knock on the door, and at the same time, the voice of the female employee just now sounded, and obvious anxiety could be heard from it:

"Lord Ren, what happened to you? Do you need rescue?"

"Sorry, I'm fine here. But you may need to contact your contact person to report for repairs. The cost will be deducted from my side." Ren opened the door and said with an apology on his face.

"Okay, okay, Lord Ren." The female staff member looked through the crack in the door and was stunned. Her eyes widened and she stammered.

Noon the next day.

On the small airship that had just taken off from the Sword Bearer's headquarters.

At this moment, Renn was working alone in the cabin on a new leather armor - the 'Murloc Scale Breastplate'. Since the journey required a day and a half of flying time, Renn decided not to waste it and took the raw materials and tools with him. They boarded the airship together.

The Murloc scale breastplate is based on a thick leather breastplate, with the scales of an adult black-finned Murloc sewn on both sides of the front and back. This scale is quite strong, and its defensive power even exceeds that of chain mail, but it is It's very light, but of course, it's also very difficult to make.

But precisely because of this, Renn chose it, as it can bring a lot of experience points.

However, Renn's behavior naturally made the headquarters logistics staff accompanying him quite strange.

They have also served many fine gold level sword wielders, but this is the first time they have encountered one like this.

"Your Excellency Olena, is this a hobby for Lord Ren?" Claire couldn't help but asked curiously to the capable young woman Olena beside her.

This time, both Claire and Beyoncé came. During a chance chat with Olena, they heard that their captain was going on a mission.

The two immediately found Renn and offered to accompany Olena on this mission as logistics personnel.

This immediately gave Renn no reason to refuse.

After all, Olena, who is almost a second-level wizard apprentice, can go, but it cannot be said that these two sword-wielders, whose strengths have reached the magic iron level and the mithril level respectively, cannot go.

"Don't ask about Lord Ren's affairs." Olena lightly patted Claire's smooth forehead and scolded with a smile.

Since Renn, as the captain, has been absent from the headquarters for a long time, Olena and the two women in Renn's team are more familiar with each other.

"You can't ask this!" Claire shrank her head and said.

"This should be a way to adjust your mood before the battle." Olena said softly.

Regarding Renn's strange behavior, Olena had discovered it once before. When she was in Münster, her young boss Renn was studying tailoring at a tailor.

Later, she searched for relevant information and found that some combatants would use artistic methods such as painting and singing to improve concentration.

Come to think of it, Master Ren should be in a similar situation.

"That's it, okay!" Claire nodded as if understanding.

On the other hand, Beyoncé, who was dressed in close-fitting leather armor and had a hot figure, listened and took it seriously!

After a day and a half of flying, Ren also walked out of the cabin and looked into the distance.

After more than a day of production, his leatherworker career level has been upgraded to lv9, allowing him to gain 2 attribute points and 2 skill points again.

Currently, Renn has 14 attribute points, 2 skill points, and 124 gold skill points.

Basically, 14 attribute points can basically support three medium-intensity battles in his fourth form.

"Look over there!"

At this time, someone suddenly stood on the side of the ship and pointed slightly excitedly.

Ren followed everyone's gaze and saw a vast expanse of lush forest in front of him. For a moment, everyone seemed to be in the ocean of the forest, feeling relaxed and happy!

However, Ren soon discovered something strange in the forest in the distance.

"Hey, over there?"

Ren was seen staring at a forest in the distance with a solemn expression.

Because his eyesight was far beyond that of ordinary people, he could clearly see that at the end of the forest field of view dozens of kilometers away from the airship, there was a forest with extremely strange colors.

It seemed to emit a faint red glow, and there were also wisps of gray mist.

Judging from the map that Ryan had seen before, that place should be the southern part of Ferdinand Forest.

"This should be the earliest breach, the area where the Mother Tree Cult first launched an attack." Ryan thought to himself.

At this time, Olena stepped forward and pointed to a rocky outpost several kilometers away, saying:

"Lord Ryan, the No. 7 outpost is ahead."

"Yes!" Ryan nodded.

This No. 7 outpost was built on a slightly higher hillside. It was built with huge rocks to form a three-story circular outpost, which also served as an observation tower and a small airship berthing point.

Ryan noticed that the rocks of the outpost were special, grayish white, and looked very solid. This kind of stone was either brought up from underground by high-level earth wizards or transported from other places.

"It seems that the elves are cautious about the empire, but similarly, the empire also has necessary defenses against the elves." Ryan said.

"That's right. There are dozens of sentry towers like this, most of which were built hundreds of years ago and are scattered around Ferdinand Forest. Their main purpose is to monitor the movements of a certain scale of elves." Olena introduced.

As the airship slowly docked on the third floor of the sentry tower, Ryan took the lead and walked off the airship.

"Sir, welcome to the No. 7 sentry post. I am the sentry post chief Ian." A burly middle-aged man in the uniform of an imperial colonel, accompanied by two lieutenants, saluted Ryan at the berth.

While saluting, Ian quickly looked at Ryan and his party.

He just received news yesterday that the head of the imperial special forces would arrive in the near future, but he didn't expect it to be so fast. They were notified yesterday, and they arrived today.

At first, he thought it was a surprise inspection by the military.

In addition,

This sir looks too young!

However, this trip was quite impressive. A young woman in a business suit standing beside him was obviously a secretary. The people holding various equipment seemed to be a complete logistics support team. Hey, there was also a beautiful female wizard and a ranger behind him.

Hiss, this ranger! What a great figure!

For a moment, Ian's mental activity was quite intense.

You know, they have received quite a few special operations teams here, but this kind of configuration is still very rare.

No, it can be said that this is the first time I have seen it!

It seems that there is only one combatant? Or three? But the logistics staff is almost 20 people.
