Can an experienced and skilled journeyman be the same as a rookie intern?

Although generally speaking, once the territorial seal is granted, it will not be withdrawn, and will be passed down with the inheritance of the noble family, unless the descendants of the nobles are too uncompetitive and have not made achievements to promote the title, as the father passes from son to son, son to grandson, the title is reduced from generation to generation, and finally the fief is canceled, and it is possible for the royal family to take it back.

However, there are also some nobles who have committed crimes and are exterminated, or the blood of the noble family is cut off, and the family is destroyed, so that the territory and the seal of the territory will be nationalized by the royal family.

What Zhuoya didn't say was that although "journeymen" have more work experience than "interns", usually nobles don't like to get a light butler who has served other families, but often choose to cultivate it slowly, after all, the light spirit that has opened the spirit is no different from humans except for having no substance, and also has its own surname, ideas, and habits accumulated from work.

Although it is rare to encounter the situation of the light spirit betraying the master, but if it were you, would you choose an "old fritter" light spirit who doesn't know what is wrong with it, or will you choose to cultivate a light spirit Lori by yourself and slowly cultivate it?

Therefore, it is usually difficult for those territorial seals that have been collected by the royal family to be granted again, but when Sycamore obtained the territory, it was in a period of chaos within the Adele royal family, and Sycamore was not like the aboriginal nobles, who knew the twists and turns in it, and the royal ceremonial officer who had no intention of following Sycamore and more mushrooms, when granting Sycamore titles and seals, he randomly picked one for him, and as a result, Zhuoya was sent to Sycamore.

And according to Zoya herself, her "work experience" is indeed rich, from the [Twilight Age] to the [Twilight Age], or since the Kingdom of Anderle, she has served a total of more than a dozen lords in three or four thousand years, including several dukes, and of course there are also insignificant third-class barons.

The longest of them was for nearly a thousand years of service to a duke's family, but unfortunately the duke committed a great crime in the war, and the family was deprived of nobility, and the shortest master was actually less than three months old, and the poor little baron's territory was razed to the ground by a powerful group of thieves, and the family did not even have a mouse to run away alive, so she naturally had to return to the royal family of Adele, waiting to be assigned a new job-

Seven hundred! Tomorrow to make up for thousands of years of "work experience", it is really rich, even for the light spirit who has no concept of time, this qualification is long enough, and it can be regarded as an old qualified senior among the light spirit butlers

"Wait!"

Wutong suddenly noticed the loophole in Zhuoya's words: "You said that you have been opening your spiritual wisdom for three or four thousand years? ”

"You're so sharp! Your Excellency! ”

Zhuo Ya shrugged her shoulders and said helplessly: "Although I don't want to admit it, but at the same time as being opened to the spiritual wisdom and becoming the light spirit steward, we are required not to betray the master, nor can we lie to the master, and we need to maintain absolute loyalty to the master, so I have to answer this question to you, yes, to be precise, I have been opening the spiritual wisdom for 4537 years." ”

Sycamore's eyes couldn't help but widen, 4537? It all goes back to the Kovaré calendar, the ancient times when the five nations of mankind launched the [War of the Races]!

You must know that it has only been more than 5,000 years since humans landed on the Kovarare continent, of which the [Kovalé Calendar] from the time of landing is more than 2,000 years, and the [Twilight Calendar] of the [Dark Civil War] period of the Five Kingdoms of Mankind is a full thousand years, plus the [Dawn Calendar] of the more terrifying [End War] period, it has been more than 2,000 years!

And the time when Zoya was turned on for spiritual wisdom goes back more than 4,500 years from now, that is to say, she already had memories when Galifa I the Great unified the tribes of the continent and established the [Galifa Empire]!

It's going to catch up with the whole history of mankind!

"Zhuoya, you're really an old senior!?"

Wutong couldn't help but sigh, with such an experienced housekeeper, there should be no problem in managing and operating the camp.

"Then Your Excellency, do you want to keep me?"

Zhuoya could see that You Pitian's hands were clasped together, and she was holding her small chin against her small chin and making a pitiful pleading.

"Of course! Why not? ”

Wutong was inexplicable: "I only have this one territory seal, how can I manage the territory if I don't leave you?" ”

"Really? That's great! That's great! Finally, I don't have to stay in a crystal ball and be locked in a black warehouse! ”

Zhuo Ya raised his hands and cheered: "Yay~!" Long live the dear master! It was only then that Zhuoya officially changed his name to "master" instead of politely calling him "Your Excellency the Lord".

Even if time is meaningless to the light spirits, but when they are not working, they must sleep in the crystal ball, these more than 4,500 years, Zhuoya to half of the time fell into a deep sleep, which is not fatal for the light spirits who look forward to the sun, the process of sleeping is not painful, but it is definitely not a nostalgic experience.

Compared with those nobles who like to slowly cultivate the light spirit Lori and play the cultivation game, Wutong still prefers the experienced "mature woman", he doesn't have so much time to cultivate the territory management experience of the light spirit Lori, and Zhuoya, who can directly take over the operation of the territory, is of course the first choice for the housekeeper.

Besides, where is he going to go to the royal ceremonial officer now to change the territorial seal? Not to mention that he was hunted down by the priests of the Silver Flame Church, the floating imperial city of the Adele royal family was also surrounded by the queen's own brother, the Grand Duke of Ador, with eleven floating war mage towers, and frequently attacked, not to mention going to the palace, he couldn't even go to the Venane Academy now.

"I'm curious!"

Wutong obviously thought of another question: "You said that you have opened the spiritual intelligence for more than 4,500 years, but just now you said that this arcane technique that opens the spiritual intelligence is just developed by a certain 'lazy' ** master who wants to find some assistants who will take care of the mage tower for him?" It's only been more than 5,000 years since humans landed in Kovare, so doesn't that mean that Zoya belongs to the first few generations of light butlers? ”

Zhuo Ya thought for a while: "To be precise, my sisters and I should be regarded as the first generation of light spirit butlers, because we are the 'lazy' ** master, the first batch of light spirits who opened the spiritual wisdom with their own hands, I didn't tell you, in fact, the person who is responsible for managing the lazy ** master mage tower, and the current management of the royal palaces of the kingdoms, as well as the territories of the thousand-year-old noble families of the countries, are they all my first sisters?" ”

Wutong was stunned: "You are actually the first generation of light spirit butlers?" ”

Zoya tilted her head and thought for a while: "If Adele's grammar has not changed much in the hundreds of years that I have been sleeping, it is what you understand, by the way, my last master, the Baron I only served for three months, six or seven hundred years ago, this is the longest period of time I have been asleep." ”

I don't know if there is a problem with Zhuoya's expression ability or Wutong's comprehension ability, the two sides communicated for a long time before Wutong figured out the ins and outs.

Zhuoya's so-called "first and second generation" light spirit butlers actually refer to the offspring bred by the first generation of light spirit butlers!

Because the creatures of the light spirit have no surname at all, although their external images are basically beautiful girls, but they are all presented through transfiguration.

And the birth of their lives is not through reproduction, but directly in the area of strong positive energy, there is no blood relationship between each other, and naturally there is no concept of parents, ancestors, and descendants, whether it is a light spirit born tens of thousands of years ago, or a light spirit born after tens of thousands of years, theoretically speaking, they are all "brothers and sisters" of the same generation.

The so-called "first generation" of light spirit butlers refers to the group of light spirits who were opened by the lazy ** master, and the "second generation" refers to the light spirit butlers taught by the mages who learned the method of opening the light spirit spirit from the lazy ** master.

Because the mages who have mastered the method of opening the spiritual wisdom, each of them is good at different fields, everyone's comprehension ability is different, and everyone's strength is different.

Theoretically speaking, of course, it is the light spirit taught by the lazy ** teacher, the most intelligent and more growth, belonging to the "hardcover collector's edition", and it is naturally called the "first generation of light spirit".

And the disciples who have inherited the skills of the lazy ** master, the light spirits taught by them, due to the perfect technology, are only the poor strength of the mage disciples, and the wisdom that can be given to the light spirits is limited, so the light spirit talent and growth surname that are turned on are poor, but because of the large number of light spirits that have been turned on by this batch of light spirits, it is considered a "simple popular version", and this group of light spirit butlers is called the "next generation of light spirits".

In addition to these two batches of light spirit butlers, which can be regarded as "original and genuine", with the outflow of technology, the strength of the mages who have learned to open the light spirit intelligence technology is uneven, and their understanding of technology is strange, which leads to the emergence of various strange states of light spirits, which can be regarded as "DIY replicas", which is the so-called "three generations of light spirits".

Since then, due to the war, the technology to open the light spirit spirit has gradually been lost, and it was once broken until a long time later, this technology was reproduced by the mages, and some technological innovations were added, and a new light spirit butler appeared.

These light spirits who can only maintain low intelligence and almost no growth talents, although they can complete simple tasks, but don't expect them to do anything too surprising, it can be regarded as the fourth generation of "reproduction and innovation version", so far the four generations of light spirit butlers have basically no relationship with the first generation of light spirit butlers.

Of course, this is just the division of the generation system by the light spirits themselves, but for humans, there is no such concept, after all, if the contact time is not long enough, it is impossible to detect the wisdom and talent growth of the light spirits, whether it is the first, second, third and fourth generations, the things that can be done are actually the same, but in the process of managing the territory for the master, the abilities presented are very different.

For some lords, a light spirit butler with subjective initiative and independent judgment ability is not a good thing, what they need is just a steward who strictly obeys their own orders, completes their own tasks, has no own thoughts, and will not make their own decisions.

Otherwise, there would not be a situation where some light butlers with a surname and work experience would be returned to the royal family, because the nobles did not want to see their territory in the hands of a butler who was not under their control.

The abilities of the light spirit stewards are very powerful, and almost any affairs of the entire lord's fiefdom are in their hands, and once they do not obey orders, they are no less harmful than the robot rebellion that humans fantasize about in reality.

At present, devastated by time, the number of the first and second generations of light spirit butlers has been very small, only those royal families and large families that have been inherited for thousands of years, there may still be the first generation of light spirits, the total number is estimated to be no more than ten, the number of the second generation is a little more, but it will not exceed a hundred, most of them are used by some ** masters to manage their own mage towers, and few have fallen into the hands of nobles, and now they are used in the territory of the nobility, basically three or four generations of light spirit butlers.

How to distinguish the first, second, third, and fourth generations of spirits, you can't tell just by looking at the crystal ball, and over time, the various generations of lights are mixed together, and when you encounter a first-generation spirit mixed in the third and fourth generations of lights, it's almost as rare as buying an antique and picking it up.

Wutong had to sigh his luck, Zhuoya was one of the light butlers who were personally created by the lazy ** master, and were given to Galifa I the Great by the ** master to manage the territory at that time, covering the entire Kovarare continent in the huge Galifa Empire.

After more than 4,500 years of wandering and changing more than a dozen owners, Zhuoya, a light spirit that originally did not possess the complex emotions and sophistication of human feelings, has also been honed into the current appearance, showing the most perfect state like a diamond.

For the light spirits whose work is life and work is the sunshine, only the work that satisfies the owner can reflect their true value, so they will be particularly rare and hard-working, and at the same time love their work.

"Can you tell me the story of your dozen masters?"

Wutong couldn't help but be curious: "Especially which lazy ** teacher, and Galifa I the Great." ”

"Dear master." Zhuo Ya smiled and said, "Among the rules of work of the light spirit butler, there is no way to reveal the master's secret to outsiders!" ”

Wutong said unexpectedly: "Aren't I your master now?" ”

"So I won't reveal your secret to the next master!" Zhuoya said with a smile.

Wutong understands that the aristocratic family usually leaves some secret legacies for future generations just in case, and these inheritances are usually in the hands of the light spirit butler, if the light spirit butler will easily reveal the master's secrets, then who would dare to do this?

No one wants to leave an inheritance to future generations after they hang up, because with the change of ownership of the light butler, it has become someone else's spoils.

"Well, that's not a secret story, you can tell me something, right?"

Wutong did think a little cautiously just now, as an "old monster" who has lived for more than 4,500 years, Zhuoya's wealth is not just those legacies, it can be said that she casually revealed a little secret about Galifa I the Great, which is enough for him to have several great achievements in archaeology.

"Of course this is possible, as a qualified and competent housekeeper, Zhuoya inherited from the previous master, and the only thing that can be dedicated to the new master is rich experience."

Zhuo Ya smiled and said, "This is not in the work rules of the Light Spirit Butler, but it is a long, long story, are you sure you want to listen to it now?" ”

"Well, let's wait until we get a chance."

The ultra-long story with a time span of more than 4,000 years is much longer than "One Thousand and One Nights", and Wutong feels that he will have time to listen slowly in the future, and by the way, learn from the experience of the previous lords in managing and developing the territory.

"I don't think you have time to listen to the story now, it seems that there are a lot of guests coming to visit!"

Zhuoya clicked a few times on the whole map of the territory, zoomed in on the screen, and saw the surroundings of the obsidian field, I don't know when, maybe it was when they were chatting, a large group of skeletons surrounded the obsidian field, and the number suddenly startled Wutong! What is it? Monster siege?

Boy! From the 3D three-dimensional virtual reality map, the group of skeletons from the three directions of the Northern Province Defense Line, the Gray Bone Plain, and the Wailing Wilderness condensed into three gray spots, crowded and crowded outside the obsidian field.

Looking at the three major groups of skeletons dumbfounded, this almost gathered all the skeletons on the Northern Province defense line, the Gray Bone Plains, and the Wailing Wilderness, right? Wutong understood, these skeletons that were still gathering were not able to be howled by the roar of the undead who the former bone lord Ah Gu thought was ineffective.

Fortunately, that strange purple light curtain actually blocked such a huge number of skull seas from the obsidian field, like flies blocked by glass, and they couldn't get inside.

"Zhuoya, is this light curtain the protective function of the Territory Seal? How come I haven't seen it in other noble territories? ”

Wutong was very surprised, to be honest, even in Duke-level territories like Weishire, Breeze County, and Arcarix County, there is no such force field wall as the protective wall, theoretically speaking, this kind of "high-tech" thing actually appeared in his small third-class baron's territory, which is a little too unscientific.

"Territorial protection? How could you think that? To envelop the entire territory under the force field wall, how much arcane energy consumption must be generated? ”

Zhuoya looked at Wutong in surprise: "Even the Adele royal family, I'm afraid they don't have the ability to afford such a huge amount of arcane energy expenditure, right?" ”

Wutong thought about it, who would have nothing to do to cover the entire territory with a force field wall? Although Ao Neng is not electric energy, nuclear energy, and light energy, it is also a kind of energy after all, since it is energy, it will naturally be consumed, and even the floating imperial city of the Ander royal family is just barely covered with a force field wall on the floating imperial city, and it is not said that the entire Principality of Adele is shrouded, right?

With the savings of the Andree royal family, a royal family that has been inherited for thousands of years, it is impossible for him to do it as a little baron.

"But what is that purple light curtain?" Sycamore was puzzled.

"Although it is not as exaggerated as enveloping the entire territory, in order to prevent assassination and ensure the safety of the lives of the expatriate lords, in fact, all the territory seals have this function, but the people's territory seals, at most, can release a layer of force field wall, shrouding the lord's lord's mansion, and it can't be opened for a long time, because every second it opens, the huge arcane energy consumed is very amazing, and no one can afford it. At most, it is used as a last resort to protect oneself in the event of a rebellion or war. ”

Zhuo Ya smiled: "That's why I don't say that you are a 'lucky person', remember I told you, our light spirit butler, our own ability is actually very limited, all abilities can only be achieved from the 'hardware' given by His Excellency the Lord, without 'hardware', we can't do anything!" ”

Stretched out his little finger and pointed to the purple force field wall, and then pointed to the territory seal, that is, the crystal ball that Zhuoya was living in: "If I am not mistaken, when you got the territory seal, someone should have taught you how to use it, right?" ”

Wutong nodded, and took out a few soul energy crystals full of soul energy, this is still the empty soul crystal trophy he brought out from the trial island, what kind of good thing obtained by the hill giant zombie in the underground temple, this thing is usually useless, only used when enchanting, alchemy, or creating some kind of arcane item that consumes soul energy, because the soul energy stored in this thing can be used instead of the mage's own soul energy.

And the territory seal, you need to inject a lot of soul energy to activate, if you want to activate more functions, you need to invest more soul energy, to put it bluntly, although the territory seal is powerful, but it is also a large energy consumer, and the soul energy spar, which is equivalent to the energy source, you say that it is a "battery" is not an exaggeration.

However, just now Sycamore had just put the Territory Seal on the [Baron] Seal, and it was automatically activated, and Sycamore didn't have time to put the Soul Energy Crystal on it!

Since the sycamore didn't consume its own soul energy, and it didn't install a "powerful battery" like a soul energy spar, how did it start?

Wutong's gaze fell on the golden meteorite, and he said in surprise: "Is it because of this meteorite?" Is it a meteorite that is feeding the territory seal? ”

"Yes! If I'm not mistaken, in the Floating Imperial City of the Anderle Royal Family, a stone similar to this is used as an energy source, and it is far less big than the one you own, and the type does not seem to be quite the same, the one in the Floating Imperial City of the Anderle Imperial Family, is close to brown earthy yellow, and yours is golden! ”

This meteorite turned out to be a "power stone"?

Wutong, who suddenly realized that he had made a fortune, couldn't help but lie down and touch the huge meteorite under his feet, didn't he listen to Zhuoya? The brown piece of the royal family, which is not even as big as the sycamore, is actually enough to make the floating imperial city float up, and maintain a full eighteen layers of force field walls for a long time!

Is this a decay-free nuclear reactor?

"Although I don't know what this thing is, I remember vaguely hearing that this meteorite is called 'Dragon Crystal', which is a very rare and precious item! With this meteorite, I can do almost all the functions of the territory seal. ”

"Rich!"

Wutong couldn't help but exclaim.

"Yes! Get rich! ”

Zhuo Ya also excitedly circled around the huge meteorite: "The force field wall protective layer function of the Territory Seal should be automatically activated under the huge supply of arcane energy!" ”

Wutong suddenly realized that he seemed to have found a safe "shelter", as long as he stayed in the territory and was protected by a strong field wall, that madman-like Silver Flame priest should not be able to break in, right?

"Shut it up! Closed! How much energy does it take? ”

Wutong reacted suddenly, he didn't know how long this big meteorite could supply the arcane energy, and now it was not a matter of life and death, so there was no need to waste it in vain, right?

"Shut it up!? There are at least hundreds of thousands of skeletons surrounded by your territory!? And their number is growing! ”

Zhuoya pointed to the group of skeletons on the light curtain in surprise.

Wutong was stunned, yes, there were so many skeletons outside, Wutong was worried: "But it's just open, what if the energy of the meteorite is exhausted?" With such a large piece of territory, how much arcane energy does it have to consume in one second? ”

"Territory? No, no, no! ”

Zhuo Ya shook her head: "What is under the scope of the force field wall is not your territory, but your lord's mansion!" ”

"Lord's Palace? No way? How could such a huge area of the Lord's Mansion be divided? The area of the Ann Le Palace of the Ann Le Imperial Family of the Andel Imperial Family is not so wide, right? ”

Wutong said with a bitter face: "I don't even have a brick to decorate the Lord's Mansion now, what do you want to do with such a large scale of the Lord's Mansion?" ”

"Can't blame me for that!"

Zhuo Ya looked innocent, and spread his hands to Wutong: "That is the territory seal letter automatically sensed the abundant energy, and the size of the lord's mansion under the surname, usually no one will use this precious and rare dragon crystal as the consumption of energy, after the territory influence is sensed, it automatically opens the force field wall scale of the corresponding energy level." ”

"Can you narrow it down?" Although Wutong knew that there were a large number of skeletons waiting outside, he still wanted money and tried to save as much as possible.

"That's fine!"

Zhuo Ya was a little casual, and she didn't know what she did, the purple force field cover like a bowl began to shrink slowly, until it shrank to the periphery of the obsidian pillar where Wutong was located, and at the same time, the range was greatly reduced, and the defense ability was also greatly improved.

"I've got to get out there and deal with those skeletons!" Wutong hurriedly planned to leave this "obsidian universe" and return outside to deal with the group of cannon fodder skeletons.

(To be continued)
