Chapter 359: Waste of Mana
The sun was shining, and Richard was wandering in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window on the top floor of the castle.
"BΓ©drik decided not to succeed to the throne until the murderer of His Majesty Sagre was caught, and temporarily acted as the crown prince. Buckland pinched a message from the Noble Garden, and couldn't stop smacking in surprise, "I feel that the young man is quite ambitious." β
"Ambitious, he wants to evade responsibility. Richard was silent for a while, then sighed helplessly, "Forget it, let him go." β
"By the way, why didn't Zara come back with you?"
Now that the lords had withdrawn to Takayama Fort one after another, the lord suddenly remembered that it seemed that he had not seen him again for a long time.
"That goblin has a very stubborn temper, and he doesn't want to go. Buckland put down the letterhead, "I can tell at a glance that he doesn't have much time to live, but he has to stay in the goblin ruins to study the vapor ball, saying that he wants to derive more than three hundred basic runes backwards." β
"Alas, there is no need to persuade. Richard waved his hand.
For Zara, it may be true happiness to be able to find something to do at all costs at the last moment of her life.
Besides, he really knew too many secrets of the mountain castle, and the lord was also having a headache about how to deal with it. Now that Zara volunteered to stay in the New World to study goblin runes, it can be regarded as embarrassing everyone.
"Richard, do you think he can push the goblins' alchemy backwards? If it's true......" Buckland held it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Our Alpine Fort will be a big deal!"
Richard shook his head and smiled bitterly, not at all as optimistic as the old white tiger, "Dreaming." β
The rune system is the crystallization of the wisdom of the entire goblin clan from generation to generation, and I don't know how many subtle and delicate things are contained in it. No matter how smart he is, he is just a mortal, how can he restore the entire system by himself.
In fact, he didn't have the idea of cracking the steam ball to master the rune system, after all, it was something that allowed the goblin to compete with the Titans with a weak body, as long as the brain was not broken, how could he not want it.
And Richard deeply understands the truth of a good man and three gangs, and has never pinned his hopes on one person, but secretly went out by himself to sign a few wilderness goblins.
According to the best predictions, since the system can allow the degraded trolls to become silver giants through advanced atavism, it may also be possible to restore the lost minds of the mentally retarded goblins.
The ideal is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
The three-level class of "Goblin Beggar", "Goblin Thief", and "Goblin Robber" is a solid lesson for the lord.
The degree of waste of this class tree can be said to be the only one in his life, and the top soldiers and first-class soldiers are also mentally retarded, and they can't even see much improvement in physical fitness.
If there is anything to gain, it is to make Richard deeply feel that there is still waste wood that even the system can't save.
But in hindsight, it makes sense.
From the Silver Giant to the Troll, it is an all-round deterioration caused by the downturn of the Elemental Tide. From the perspective of the silver giants back then, the so-called trolls must all be underdeveloped deformities.
The role of the system is to force them back to their original trajectory, not only in the case of the trolls, but also in the entire army of Rippers.
They are all developing with advanced secondary development, and their height is generally a lot taller than their outside counterparts, and they look extremely majestic.
However, the situation of the Wild Goblins is different, and their hardware configuration is not much different from that of the Ancient Goblins. The problem is that the effects of the psychic storm are in the bloodline, and they can't be shaken off like maggots of rotten bones, obscuring the wisdom that should have been.
Therefore, what the wilderness goblins need is not the so-called "growth" at all, but the "elimination", and the system has nothing to do about it.
"How's the war going in the Northeast Province?" the lord lifted the teapot and made a glass of water for Buckland.
"It is said that there were three rounds of sniper battles in a row, and in the end they won anyway, but the specific battle report did not say. β
"Richard!" Anne hurried over with a piece of letter like a gust of wind, her cheeks flushed and a little panting, "you...... Why did you send Higuain into battle with twenty Wyverns?"
"Isn't it okay?" asked the lord with a smile.
After the defense of Alpine Fort ended, he did send people to Coren to help as soon as possible. For the sake of convenience, the air cavalry was obviously the most suitable choice.
"Yes...... However, don't people know that there is an empty cavalry establishment in the high mountain fort?" There is always a motto in the life of a half-elf merchant, which is that wealth is not exposed.
We firmly believe that every gold coin should be carefully hidden in the treasury and never be easily revealed until it is a critical moment, so that we can live a prosperous and stable life.
"It's not long before you hide it, you have to show your muscles when you need to show your muscles, otherwise everyone will treat you as a green onion. Richard pulled out a chair and motioned for her to sit down.
In fact, although Alpine Fort has been in the limelight in recent years, most of the attention is still focused on Richard himself. I can't imagine that this small pioneer leader now has thousands of elite and staffed spellcasters.
But as its strength grows further, this mystery can't last long, as the mountain fort also needs to step out of the wilderness and step into a bigger stage.
And according to the lord's own temper, he doesn't like Taoguang in his heart. He believes that the strong do not need to hide themselves, and the weak are useless no matter how much they hide themselves. Whoever doesn't accept it will be defeated until it is served, as long as the fist is hard enough, it can always eat all directions.
"Yes, Annie, don't be so petty. Buckland picked up his teacup, "Tell me, how did they play?"
"It is said that there was a skeleton dragon in the tide of undead faced by the Northeast Province, which once caused a lot of trouble for the regular army of the kingdom. β
"Higuain is a genuine dragon knight, so there shouldn't be any difficulty in dealing with a skeleton dragon, right?"
"It didn't take his hands. Anne shook her head, "Twenty cavalrymen fired holy water-soaked crossbow arrows from the bed crossbows carried by the Anemo Pterodactyl, and two volleys easily hunted the skeletal dragons. Now Higuain is so famous that the people of Coron call him 'the rose on the dragon's back'. β
The old white tiger was slightly stunned, and suddenly laughed, "Beautiful but with spikes, it's quite appropriate." β
"What about the undead pollution left over from the battlefield, how to deal with it. Richard suddenly asked with concern.
Anne looked down at the letter for a moment before saying, "Bishop Paul himself will preside over the purification." β
"So much undead magic power has been wasted. The lord was immediately distressed, "Do you know, Chief Setos said that if the magic power required by ordinary people for semi-undead transformation is regarded as a unit, there are about 10,000 reserves in the Book of the Undead now. β
"So much?" the half-elf chick startled.
