Bai Xuan immediately confirmed to check, and with a bang, the golden streamer swirled, forming a silkworm cocoon that expanded and trembled and exploded, and a card emitting a milky white hazy light reappeared, showing a white shield pattern on it.

【Shield of Light】

Plane: 0110

Rating: S

Attribute: Buff skill

Use: Get bindings, suitable for all objects, humanoids recommended

Trait: Plane affinity, 15% increased potency

"Holy Light Shield, get the binding skill, from Tirio Furding, the receiver of the Black Pack, do you want to use it?"

"Paladin's invincible skill-can?" Bai Xuan was completely stunned, he never expected that he would even have such a thing.

He thought of infinite possibilities for a moment, and his heart beat strongly.

"What does it mean to get bindings?"

"Can only be used by the person who acquired it, and has this skill forever after use. ”

What does it mean to be in a happy mood? This is Bai Xuan's mood at this moment.

"Confirm use. ”

There is no strange feeling, obviously this skill will not be effective if it is not activated.

He skimmed through the skill description, and sure enough, it was similar to what he remembered: instantaneous, immune to all physical and magical damage, for 9 seconds (including plane affinity boosters).

There are also differences: the cooldown time is 24 hours.

This is a life-saving skill that can be activated instantly, but can only be used once every 24 hours.

Bai Xuan really wanted to hug the system and cry twice, shedding tears of excitement to express his mood at the moment, of course, it would be better if he could hold the falling mind, but he was afraid that she would kick this shameless monster away.

After lunch, Bai Xuan began to sit at his desk and read the various Ember City documents sent by Dong Lei, most of them were about finance and taxation, although it was boring, Bai Xuan still read it patiently, but soon he found that he didn't actually need to look at the process records, he just needed to look at the results.

The result, of course, is that there is not much income, but there are many items to spend, and the construction of the city wall alone is a bottomless pit. The income and expenditure are barely balanced under the care of Dong Lei, which also shows Dong Lei's excellent management ability in finance.

Time flew by, and before dinner, Cares came to report on the integration of the armed forces, the fifty members of the guard were considered full, only a few people were slightly injured when they encountered the giant bear in the Black Curse Forest, and Paul's hunting group reorganized the team of thirty people, half of whom were newly recruited mercenaries.

The guard has two vice-captains, both of whom are golden samurai, and the guards only have ten silver guards, who are silver samurai, and the rest are all guards, that is, the rank of trainee samurai.

The rank of the Royal Guard is higher than that of ordinary soldiers, and the lowest is also a trainee samurai, while the ordinary soldiers are ordinary people, and most of them do not cultivate fighting spirit.

Local battles rely on the strong force of the samurai, while large-scale battles still have to be decided by a huge number of soldiers.

Bai Xuan frowned, he knew the situation of the guards, and the situation was basically satisfactory, while the situation of the hunting group was not optimistic, there were everyone, rangers, mercenaries, miscellaneous magicians, and so on.

"That's all Paul has to do?"

"There is no way, Your Highness, they are not an official hunting group in the first place, and they are not mainly hunting, but gathering. Kares spread his hands, also helpless.

Bai Xuan clenched his fists, he knew too well the impact of money on force, he had just counted, and when he came from the royal capital, he only brought three thousand gold coins, half of which was still his private money, which was not enough for too long.

Once Ember City is divided into his domain, as a lord, he will have to be self-sufficient, so he has to start thinking about how to make money now, otherwise all development will be lost.

If it is in other territories, it is okay, relying on taxes to achieve a well-off level, assuming that the territory is in a good location, there are minerals and other resources, and agriculture is a little more developed, the lord can live a rich life, comparable to a small kingdom.

Ember City's opportunities are in the future, not now, but if you develop slowly, it's too late.

The Rift Beast is a way to make money, and it must be fought for.

"Let Master Thomas move to the castle tomorrow and open up a separate place for him in the back to be used as an alchemy room. Bai Xuan called Dong Lei over, "Bring all his magic energy materials, as well as apprentices, including magic energy fire powder." ”

Dong Lei wrote it down and hurriedly went to arrange it.

Dinner was also solved in Bai Xuan's house, he called Luoshen, Donglei, and Kareth over, and several people gathered around the table to eat and talk, and even asked people to find two wooden sticks to sharpen into chopsticks to use, the atmosphere of dinner was very awkward for a while, except for Bai Xuan, everyone else was not used to this way of eating, especially he used two wooden sticks to pick up food.

The expressions on the faces of Carres and Donglei were truly indescribable.

There is no way, the habits of the original world are difficult to change, if there is no one to accompany him, Bai Xuan suspects that he will not be able to eat at all, or he will starve to death soon.

Fortunately, as time went on, everyone gradually got used to it a little, and for Carres, the main thing was not that they were not used to sitting and eating together, but that they were not used to putting all the dishes together, which was so special.

Shouldn't they be served one by one? This is not breakfast, what about the process? What about the ritual sense of the aristocracy?

None of them.

The gods are more accustomed to it than they are, and the elves are particular about the beauty of their food, not so much about the way they eat.

"In the far eastern continent, there are many incomparable cuisines, such as ...... Oh, I've just heard that I'll try to make it for you when I have the chance. Bai Xuan sighed in his heart and put a piece of bacon in his mouth.

It's not unpalatable, but it's definitely not delicious to him.

Kares dipped rye bread in the black pepper gravy on the plate without squinting, and slowly put it in his mouth, his expression was very satisfied, but what he thought in his heart was, what kind of nerves was His Highness making, when had he heard of the delicacies of the Eastern Continent, and he still had to start making them?

The gods are above, and he's probably never been in the kitchen.

Viscount Donglei is obviously a person who pursues food, and the cook in the castle was brought by him from the royal capital, and his skills are very good, but seeing that His Royal Highness is not very satisfied, he began to think about whether he should change the chef again.

The Falling God did not speak, especially after she saw the tiny Brillium Ring on her left hand flicker twice with an almost imperceptible light, then stood up and greeted a few people slightly, and then withdrew.

"Do the elves eat so little?" said the fat man, "no wonder they are in such good shape." ”

"Miss Falling God is a powerful elven warrior, and strong warriors have strict control over their diet. Kareth smiled and looked at Winter Thunder's belly.

"I'm not a fighter. Winter Thunder shrugged his shoulders and shoved a slice of roast meat into his mouth.

Bai Xuan looked into the distance, his spiritual power spread, scanning like radar, since absorbing that black crystal, his spiritual power has become more and more acute, and now it has spread out to the point where he can sense the wind and grass within a range of about a few tens of meters around, but this time he didn't find anything.

As he was leaving, he clearly felt a faint wave of magic power on her left hand.

As long as there is no threat, he will not explore the secrets of the elves.

Luoshen always felt that Bai Xuan's gaze was still on her back, even if she returned to the room, this feeling was still there, she didn't know where this perception came from, but with the sensitivity of the elf, she still made a guess: His Royal Highness, the prince of this human race, seems to have strong spiritual power.

But this is obviously unlikely, under normal circumstances, only powerful magicians can achieve mental progress through daily meditation, which is very difficult.

She looked at the ring and pondered for a while, changed into a leather armor and dress, sat quietly on the edge of the bed and began to meditate, until three hours passed, she slowly opened her eyes.

In the evening when there is no entertainment, the people in the castle should have fallen asleep by this moment.

She took out a small gray ball and gently crushed it.
