"Okay, today I will tell you about the principle of releasing magic missiles, and also demonstrate the entire process of casting spells. You should experience it more after you go down. Arcane magic is the basis for magicians to cast spells, and it is also the key to the success of magic apprentices. ." Ryan said loudly: "But I want to remind you that if you are not strong enough and forcefully release magic that exceeds your own strength, you will be subject to the backlash of the magic, which can range from serious injuries to death in serious cases, so be sure to do it. Be careful, the road to magic is long, don't abandon your bright future just because of your impatience."
"I understand." More than 500 magic apprentices under the stage responded in unison: "Thank you, Teacher Fabia."
"Well, that's it for today." Ryan waved his hand, turned around and walked off the podium, but he had only taken a few steps when he saw Barbara running up to him quickly and said: "Master Fabia , Sister Vivian asked me to tell you that I hope to have dinner with you tonight because Sister Adela is here."
Ryan patted Barbara's head lovingly and said casually: "Okay, I understand, oh, by the way, how far have you achieved meditation now."
Barbara lowered her head and thought for a while, then answered Ryan: "I seem to have a little feeling, but I always feel powerless when releasing magic."
"Well, this is normal. Remember not to rush in. Put your own safety first in everything." Ryan gave a few words and walked out of the simple magic school. It has been three full months since he defeated the Seremis family, and now it is the final time. In the hot summer, as soon as Ryan walked out of the room, he immediately felt a wave of heat blowing against his face.
Two and a half months ago, Ryan personally led 5,000 troops from Emilio and Saranar to the city where the Seremis family was stationed. The severely injured Seremis family had to surrender to Ryan. As punishment, Ryan The territory of Seremis was divided into three parts, allowing them to keep only their family's residence and nearby land, while the other parts were divided equally between Emilio and Saranal.
After becoming the actual overlord of the Cassano Plain, Lane put all his efforts into the construction of the territory. In order to conceal his identity, Lane did not show any goodwill or hostility to any surrounding forces. Even the imperial capital did not know about this out of thin air. Where did Fabia come from
The current Iron Fist Castle has become the center of the entire Cassano Plain. In order to ensure the safety of this place after he went to the imperial capital, Ryan decided to expand it and turn it into a city with the Iron Fist Castle as the core. His first step That is to personally inspect the surrounding environment and then draw a design map of the entire city.
With Ryan's artistic accomplishment, this design is naturally not flattering in terms of its beauty, but everyone who has seen it admires it. This is not because the craftsmen are afraid of Ryan's power, but because of Ryan's design. It is basically an extremely complex magic array, and the city of the future will be located on the entire magic array.
A large number of boulders were quarried from the Valo Mountains and transported to Iron Fist Castle for use. Ryan also secretly ran back to Draenai's magic tower to explain his plan in detail and received the support he wanted. A large number of drawings were made. As the raw material for the magic circle, Ryan drew a part of the magic circle on the earth, and his blacksmiths poured the smelted hot liquid mixed with fine steel and mithril into the grooves of the magic circle. After the seed alloy cools, coolies will cut the boulders into pre-conceived shapes under the command of the craftsmen, and cover them on the magic circle...
In order to build this city, Ryan almost went bankrupt. The little money he had saved before was considered a huge sum of money to spend on his own, but once it was invested in city construction, it became a negligible amount. Fortunately, Della With the support of Nai, at least 200 years of accumulation starting from Archmage Melen, Ryan does not have to worry about the source of magic materials, and other expenses can only be paid by Ryan drawing magic scrolls and making magic items.
At Ryan's insistence, all Cassano's people will receive corresponding rewards according to the number of days when they participate in the construction of this city. The promulgation of this decree reassured those doubtful people, at least their new The master is not a greedy guy, and those chambers of commerce and mercenaries who came from Free Paradise and even Seawind City after hearing the news regard Ryan as their major patron: the expansion project of Iron Fist Castle is enough to keep them from having to worry about it in a few years. Eat and drink,
Ryan looked at the people who were working hard in the distance. Under heavy rewards, they came up with various ways to improve efficiency. This was unimaginable in the era when they were regarded as semi-slaves. Although the whole project had just passed It has been more than 2 months, but the prototype of a city has already appeared in a large area.
Even without Barbara as a mouthpiece, Ryan estimated that Adela was coming back soon. She returned to move the management core of the Saranal family to the Iron Fist Castle. In the future, under Ryan, the overlord of Cassano, she would There are three large families, Emilion, Saranal and Seremis, as well as other vassal families, large and small. These families can have their own territories, but they must abide by the rules established by Ryan. Set management order,
This order was conceived by Ryan under Vivian's suggestion and with reference to the situation in the Imperial City. It is actually very simple and even a little rough, but it is a very good order in the entrepreneurial stage. Under the prestige of the magician , but in the small Cassano Plain, no one dares to challenge Ryan's authority, and Ryan can also use this order to integrate all the power of this plain,
Under this order, Ryan became the overlord of Cassano, that is, the nominal supreme ruler. He had a management team headed by himself. All the family heads and subordinates were members of this team. They followed The strength of his family will be used to distribute the benefits obtained by the entire Cassano. This is why Ryan wants to divide the territory of Seremis first. He can't let his subordinates who are forced to surrender get higher benefits than loyal subordinates. , who has the most land called Seremis
Adela's return means that this new management team is about to start operating. Once Ryan has completed the magic aspects of the new Iron Fist Castle and the entire Cassano Plain is operating smoothly, Ryan will begin to restart his temporarily shelved project. In order to meet Faras as soon as possible, Ryan has been working extremely hard during the past three months. He has to be responsible for the production of magic circles at the construction site during the day, and also takes time to teach magic to the magic apprentices, and at night , Ryan also had to work hard, making a large number of magic scrolls and magic items to cash in. Fortunately, all the magic materials were provided free of charge by Ryan's teacher Delanai from the magic tower of the great mage Mellen. Otherwise, Ryan would have gone bankrupt long ago. ,
The only thing Ryan is worried about now is that the forces around Cassano suddenly launch a war, which will delay the execution of his plan. According to the scout's report, the eastern city of Seike has dispatched tens of thousands of troops stationed at the border and can cross the border to enter at any time. In Cassano Plain, after discussing with Adela, Vivian mobilized 5,000 soldiers who participated in the Battle of Crimson Castle to protect her territory. At the same time, she stepped up training of soldiers in the territory. As long as it can be delayed until the autumn harvest, she can continue Get 20,000 warriors,
With these 20,000 soldiers, Cassano's military strength has reached 40,000. This number is very small if he wants to expand outward, but it is still enough to protect the security of his territory. In fact, in this matter, , Ryan, Vivian and Adela are not very clear about the situation on the entire continent. They don't know that the Sike City, Clay tribe and orcs are currently attacking the imperial capital in turns, desperately consuming the imperial capital's resources. military power,
Three guys with different dreams are besieging the same enemy. In addition to their tacit understanding of hoping to suppress their common enemy, they also have the intention of using the enemy's help to weaken the alliance. If Senat dares to divide his troops to attack Cassano at this time, as long as If they cannot conquer this place in a short period of time, they will fall into a situation of insufficient troops. Maybe the orcs and the Clay tribe will watch the show peacefully and watch the imperial capital and Cassano join forces, with Orlando's Royal Knights as the main force. Annihilating the invading army of Seck City in the Cassano Plain would be very detrimental to Senat.
Compared with the eyeing Seike City, the attitude of Moon City to the south of Cassano is much more ambiguous. They sent a special envoy to Iron Fist Castle, hoping to establish an alliance with Cassano. Naturally, Ryan would not agree, because in his In his heart, Cassano is just an independent lord under the imperial capital, and the only thing this autonomous territory does not have is diplomacy.
The special envoy of Wangyue City did not sign a secret agreement with Lane, but he achieved his goal. At least Cassano under Lane's rule would not be the enemy of Wangyue City, and the six-member council of Wangyue City could continue to focus on military affairs. Further south in the Whispering Forest, the emerging Hunter Alliance is their biggest concern.
As for Moses and his Sword and Rose mercenary group, although Ryan signed a cooperation agreement with them and gave them enough trust and rewards, Ryan did not intend to let Moses and the others enjoy everything here. A large number of mercenaries from Free Paradise poured into Cassano. While appointing Moses as the Sheriff of the Iron Fist Castle here, he also handed over some less important things and tasks to other mercenary groups. Regarding this, , Moses couldn't say anything, because he brought half of the men with him, but they only had about 40 people. In Cassano, which has a population of hundreds of thousands, less than 50 people were still too few.
Ryan first looked at how Moses and his mercenary partners were training new recruits in the distance, and then listened to the sound of tinkling coming from the blacksmith shop. After thinking for a while, Ryan decided to go to Moses' training ground first. Look, after all, the finished products he makes are for people to use, and the opinions of users can definitely help him make more beautiful and practical finished products.
As soon as Ryan walked out of the civilian area, he heard the rapid sound of horse hooves. Five people on war horses galloped towards him from a distance. Ryan only glanced at it, and his heart beat wildly, because he saw among the five people, Two guys were actually wearing the uniforms of imperial soldiers.
