In the study of silver moon manor, Victor fell on the writing desk and wrote hard.
It is said that the study is actually just a writing room. The bookcase is filled with all kinds of sheepskin scrolls, quills, ink, fire paint seals and decorations, but there are no books in the real sense.
Book making is often the task of monks. In the clerical room of the monastery, monks have to copy books on parchment by hand. These parchments are made of sheep, goat or calf leather and cut to the right size. The manufacturing process of parchment is extremely complex and expensive. Each calf skin is selected by thousands to ensure that there are no cracks before the following processes can be carried out. The finished parchment is soft and smooth, and can be preserved for thousands of years.
Book copying is also a time-consuming and labor-consuming project. The monks of the monastery work in groups of more than a dozen people, cooperate with each other, and it takes several months to complete. Monks often use expensive metals and gemstones to decorate books and make exquisite book bags to prevent damage to books.
If the nobles want to own such a book, they may have to donate a large amount of money or materials to the monastery, which is equivalent to the harvest of a village for five years. At the same time, it also depends on whether the church is willing to reward the LORD with books.
The collection of books has become a symbol of family heritage. Victor saw a wall full of ancient books in the kite castle of the August family, and Sylvia''s Rose Manor also had hundreds of hand-made sheepskin books.
The Randall family has only four years of history. It is as young as a baby. Naturally, there will be no collection of books. The beautiful crystal chandelier and the crystal window with a price higher than gold make the study look shabby and empty.
Victor has the ability to never forget, and the York family''s books have long been engraved in his mind through the memory function of x-3. However, most of those books are bards'' travel stories, Historical Biographies, epic legends and literary works praising the Supreme Lord. They mainly carry forward the virtues of knights and clergy, and have little practical value.
Victor often thought that Sylvia in her childhood might have been influenced by these books to establish the belief of guarding the family. If it was just cosmetic, Victor could have the alchemists copy these books, but he didn''t think it was necessary. He has modern values and pays more attention to practicality.
Animal and plant brochures, monster brochures, medicine formulas, training secrets and various design drawings are all hidden in the secret room of the mountain fortress. In the study of Yinyue manor, there are only account details, work logs, meeting memoranda, deed documents, and various rules and regulations.
Victor is now writing the bylaws of the golden regiment.
Goose feather strokes rustle on the sheepskin scroll, and the handwriting is elegant and smooth, which is very artistic.
At the end of the detailed rules, a full stop was pointed, and the breeze lingering around the quill was waved away. Victor nodded with satisfaction.
After understanding the activation talent in the dark forest, the moon elf blood seems to have been further released. As long as victor enters the state of concentration, he does not need to spend spiritual power. The breeze naturally lingers, and the time to condense the elements of the void wind is much faster, from the original 15 seconds to the current 10 seconds. Although it is not as good as the real-time mastery of high-level knights, it greatly improves the shooting frequency of wind element. His physical strength reached an unimaginable level. Victor ran with all his strength in the mountains on the west side and crossed a distance of 210 kilometers in three hours, which was beneficial to the natural lingering breeze and made him as light as a swallow, but he did not trigger activation, and surpassed Gillian by his physical strength.
Well, Victor has personally verified this countless times.
Victor''s facial lines become softer, his skin color is as bright as jade, looks like a handsome 16-year-old boy, his black eyes are as deep as the night sky, and always exudes a natural and fresh breath. Every time miss chebman saw him, her eyes lit up and she wanted to swallow it into her stomach. Nicole, not to mention that even Sylvia was "jealous" of Victor''s current appearance. She joked that if she "lent" him to Queen SUS, she would be able to get an interest free loan of 5 million gold sol.
Viscount Randall angrily threw the goddess spirit knight on the soft bed and let her experience the activation talent again.
In fact, high-level knights are extraordinary and not dominated by sensory enjoyment. They pay attention to blood and emotion. Ordinary nobles can only look up to the popular shooters of the silver class, and dare not be rude at all.
The change in appearance did not bother Victor, but he was particularly annoyed that his physique attribute was reduced by 1 point. Fortunately, the blood talent has been improved, so that the duration of Apocalypse has been extended to 12 minutes. Victor vaguely felt that if the blood of the moon elves sublimated again, the popularity would become a passive talent like super sense and blind sense. The duration of the Apocalypse would reach 20 minutes, which is exactly the duration of x-3 overrun.
The light footsteps came from the distance of the corridor, and Victor outlined Lilia in his mind.
Before the guard knocked, Victor said, "please come in, Mrs. Lilia."
Lilia walked into the study, smiled sweetly at Victor, twisted her waist, fluttered the light yellow skirt, the symmetrical leg lines loomed, and the fullness of her chest trembled, inadvertently revealing a charming and moving style.
Victor took hold of his amazing elastic waist, followed his partner''s tradition, first kissed Lilia''s pink cherry lips, and politely opened a chair for her.
"Has barrow set out?" He asked.
"Well, just left." Instead of sitting in the chair, Lilia rolled up her skirt and sat on Victor''s leg, put her arms around his neck, took a deep breath, and her pretty face showed a charming and complacent look.
"Barol took 3000 gold sols and 50 people... My dear, Urie, they are all excellent craftsmen. You let them join mercury to fight with the mask... I don''t think it''s appropriate." Lilia hesitated.
The underground war between mercury and the mask has begun. In order to ensure the advantage, Victor issued an order to Fermi''s kestrel mercenary regiment and Barrett''s bear regiment, asking them to suspend their mission and support Mercury''s operation at any time. Barol also has 18 alchemical militia in his hand. With the help of kestrel and bear regiment, mercury can use 45 alchemical militia and 11 alchemical war mastiffs. But there was a problem in front of victor.
The strength of the alchemy militia is similar to that of the shadow soldiers, and it is impossible for both sides to keep their hands. Even with the cover of bucks and southerly merchants, there is still a risk of exposure. Therefore, the high-end forces of both sides will not fight. They can only hide under the water and wait for the opportunity. However, the masked brotherhood also has a group of elite soldiers and well-trained thugs. If the shadow soldiers adopt the late strike strategy, Mercury''s situation will be very embarrassing.
The villain controlled by mercury is not the opponent of the masked mercenaries. If the alchemy militia does not fight back, Mercury will be defeated. If they do, they will expose their whereabouts. Shadow soldiers will come one after another to carry out assassination, or draw the attention of DoRdOr secret agent to the alchemy militia.
In view of this, Victor arranged a group of alchemy auxiliaries to add mercury.
Alchemy auxiliary soldiers have stamina 10, spirit 7, perception 7, life 3, manufacturing cost 500 kingsol, consume 7 soul fire and have 3 skill bits. Victor has loaded them with a production skill. They are proficient in spirit monkey stealth and long-range weapons, which is only one less proficient in melee weapons than the spirit monkey militia.
The physical quality of the alchemy auxiliary soldiers has reached the level of elite soldiers, loaded with the mastery of the monkey''s secret form and long-range weapons. They are all first-class bowmen. They can shoot the escaping hare with a hard bow 80 meters away. Cultivating the monkey''s secret form makes them agile, and the alchemy human''s own learning ability enables them to quickly master the application skills of various weapons. In terms of strength alone, the alchemy auxiliary soldiers are not lost to the tusk soldiers of the York family. Of course, individual strength does not represent combat effectiveness. Twenty tusk soldiers can entangle with ogres, and twenty alchemy auxiliary soldiers will only be torn apart by ogres. However, the alchemy auxiliary soldiers are not afraid of death and pain. On this alone, they are the most terrible soldiers. As long as the number is enough, the alchemy auxiliary can defeat any enemy head-on like the ant man.
Compared with the alchemy militia, the alchemy auxiliary soldiers cost less and consume less soul fire. They have the same service life, learning ability and fearless characteristics. They are the most cost-effective alchemy creatures and are not easy to expose the secrets of the alchemy tower. At the beginning of developing Randall''s leadership, Victor planned to manufacture a large number of alchemy auxiliary soldiers as the basic force. During the outbreak of ant disaster, the alchemy tower suddenly changed from a poor man to a local tyrant. Victor produced alchemy militia in large quantities.
Now, the Randall family''s stalls are becoming larger and larger, and the number gap of alchemy creatures is also highlighted. The grand Legion plan, the smuggling caravan, the development of lizard swamps, and the development plan of the southern continent all need the support of alchemists. Therefore, Victor readjusted the manpower structure of the alchemy tower. On the one hand, by introducing camel antelopes to enslave goblins and lizard people, the alchemical militia in mountain fortresses were liberated. On the other hand, alchemical auxiliary soldiers were made.
In fact, as early as two years ago, Victor began to manufacture alchemy auxiliary soldiers for military purposes. One is the archer who is proficient in gathering, monkey secret form and long-range weapons, the other is the Spearman who is proficient in gathering, Funiu secret form and long weapons, and the third is the baggage soldier who is proficient in gathering, Funiu secret form, construction or forging skills. Victor called them soldiers.
These soldiers spent more than a year among migrant workers, and were recruited by Jack, the first monkey militia, to receive militia training. When the time was right, Victor would arrange for them to join mercenaries and private business groups.
Barrett''s men have 15 alchemy militia and 40 soldiers. They are the backbone of the bear group, and can also become the backbone of the smuggler group and mercenaries.
As Nelson said, the ability of elite soldiers should not be underestimated. The alchemist may not be as flexible as the masked mercenary, but in terms of will, the Alchemist is eight blocks away from the masked mercenary. When the strength is almost the same, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. If they want to fight for consumption, who can fight more than victor? A soldier is 500 gold sols. Others pay. If you want to fight a mask, fight it.
This kind of thing can''t be told to Lilia.
Victor pondered for a moment and said, "honey, you don''t think I have only elite guards?"
"Are they your people, too?" Exclaimed Lilia.
"Yes." Victor nodded: "Not everyone can become elite guards. Uriel is not talented enough. They were eliminated in training and turned into logistics personnel... Remember Butz? I tell you, Butz actually survived the ant disaster and was placed in a secret camp by me to produce military equipment. Don''t tell anyone about this. One day, I will take you and Nelson there Look. "
"Booz is not dead?! that''s great." Lilia covered her mouth, her eyes were slightly red, and said with a slight cry: "my Lord, Butz, they are loyal to you. Why did you prefer to sacrifice them to protect us?"
"There are some things we can''t choose. Everyone has everyone''s destiny. We just have to try our best." Victor was silent for a moment and smiled, "who makes you my wife? It''s their responsibility to protect the family wife."
"Uriel, they are excellent craftsmen! They are all precious talents of the family. How can they give them to mercury? No, I''ll send someone to catch them back."
Lilia jumped up, but Victor pulled her into her arms.
"Uriel, they are first soldiers and then craftsmen."
"But..."
"Baby, you don''t need to think so much. Soldiers have the fate of soldiers. If the elite guards are exposed, I''ll be in great trouble."
Victor put his hand into his skirt and rubbed his smooth skin. Two red clouds flew up on Lilia''s white face. She was panting and thin, and her eyes were as beautiful as silk. She couldn''t say anything when she was confused.
What the little Baron learned was not useless at all.
After a moment of tenderness, Lilia said faintly, "Victor, if we fight the mask, Mrs. Sophia won''t join Randall. Is it really good for the family to lose several knights for a little benefit?"
Victor suddenly froze, took out his hand in his skirt, frowned and asked, "honey, who told you that Sophia would join Randall collar?"
When Lilia saw Victor''s cold look, she panicked and said, "yes... It''s Mrs. Uriel."
"Mrs. Uriel?"
"Mrs. Uriel is the chambermaid of Rose Manor and the lady of Lord mortis, the manor housekeeper."
"Rose Manor? Sylvia''s confidant housekeeper?"
Victor sneered, "when did you get so close to the York family?"
Lilia looked up at Victor and said bravely, "my Lord, I''ve been following you. I''ll approach whoever you approach."
