Chapter 20: Teleportation

When Donald broke through in the training ground, all the mages in the clubhouse felt the fluctuation of mental power.

For Donald to be promoted to Black Iron Mage in such a short period of time, the mages led by Messer were shocked and very happy.

After all, if there is a powerful mage in the clubhouse, it means that the mage power of the North County has also gone further, which is a good thing for all the North County mages.

"In the name of arcane, the pursuit of truth and fearlessness!"

Under the auspices of Messer, all the mages present collectively witnessed Donald's mage level certification.

"Apprentice Donald Melinner, from today onwards, you will officially become a member of the Great ** Master, and you should uphold the ancient rules, with the highest will to pursue the truth of the world, and pass on the glory of the arcane to the next generation!"

"Yes, I keep my oath and never violate the faith of the mage!"

After saying that, Messer personally put on the badge of the Black Iron Mage for Donald.

The original apprentice badge was blank in the center, but now Donald's badge has an extra arcane pattern representing elements and wisdom. Unlike other mages, the summoner's badge is set against a starry sky, and in it is a circle representing the six stars connected to the Otherworld.

"With the level of Donald's previous apprentice, he was able to defeat the Black Iron Peak Mage, so now that his ability has increased to the level of the Black Iron Mage, I am afraid that his strength can already face the mage of the early stage of Bronze. ”

All the mages couldn't help but think this way in their hearts.

The fact that such a talent has come out of the club is the glory of the entire North County mages, and it also makes the mages of the North County even more powerful.

You must know that there are only a few rare spell-casting professions like summoners in the entire Celt Kingdom, and most of them are below the bronze mage. Judging by the talent of Donald, a young mage, at least becoming a bronze mage is certain.

After becoming a bronze mage, the summoner may already be able to fight against other silver-level professionals without falling behind, which means that in the future, Beijun may have one more caster whose strength has reached the silver level, which is a grand occasion that has not been seen for decades.

That evening, the mages collectively threw a small but sumptuous celebration for Donald, the new mage.

Many of these mages gave some gifts, some were spell spells, some were alchemy recipes, and some were mage equipment, although they were not too high-level items, but they were exactly what Donald needed at the moment, who lacked foundation.

Messer, knowing that Donald already had an excellent staff, took it upon himself to enchant his apprentice's staff.

The Veto Scepter is no longer a game gear that can only cast one skill, but a high-level staff that can actually amplify the effects of the Mage's spell casting, and also comes with two spells.

However, the price paid by Master Messer was that he had to rest for half a month to recover the lost mental power, and the price of not being able to cast those two additional spells for at least half a year.

This affection is great, and while Donald is grateful to this teacher, he also has a high level of admiration. This teacher can be said to have only met him a few times, but he has already given him heartfelt care, and for the development of the mage profession, for the strength of Beijun and the kingdom, the teacher can be said to spare no effort to help the mages around him, what a dedication!

The old mage is much richer than some wealthy and rich people in his previous life, but even the celebrities and rich people who only make charitable donations are much greater!

Although Donald himself would not have made such a selfless devotion, it did not prevent him from paying tribute to such a person.

After the enthusiasm, the mages gathered their minds and devoted themselves to their own research and cultivation.

With infinite sighs, Donald ended his trip to Boulder City, and after bidding farewell to Mr. Messer, he came to a secluded alley where no one was around, and in his mind he imagined the appearance of his own house, a teleportation array composed of white light that appeared and disappeared in an instant flashed, and then there was no figure of him in the alley. However, the only witnesses to this scene were a few rats in the dark alleyway.

The courtyard of Melinna's house was full of building materials, and it was very difficult to walk outside the house.

The first experiment with teleportation was a perfect success. After the teleportation process ended instantly, Donald showed up in his backyard without alerting anyone.

"There is not more than a hundred kilometers between Red Maple Town and Boulder City, and it seems that it will be very convenient to travel between the two places in the future. ”

Donald said in a good mood, and then through the spiritual detection ability he had mastered after being promoted to Black Iron Mage, he found that his butler was instructing the aunt of the servant and cook lady in the kitchen to deal with those aristocratic tableware. Other than that, there were no other outsiders within 100 meters of the house. And because it was early in the morning, some residents in the neighborhood were just getting ready to get up, and they didn't have to worry about being seen at this time.

Thinking about the location of the manor, I wanted to activate the teleportation technique again, but I felt dizzy, and the teleportation was not successfully activated. Seeing this, Donald couldn't help but sigh:

"It seems that the data given by the Book of Truth is really accurate, there is not the slightest loophole to exploit, and the cooldown time of the primary teleportation technique is half an hour, which is to prevent it from causing a burden on the body and cannot be used continuously!"

"It's better to wait and take a look at the manor, these materials should also be sent! Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the house next time I come back!"

So Donald once again spent the elemental spars he had in hand to increase the spatial imprint to thirty cubic meters, and then put away some of the building materials currently needed in the courtyard and stored them in the space, and then walked into his house with ease.

I got up early in the morning, and the butler Curd, who had just left the kitchen, immediately greeted him.

"Young master, you're back!" I immediately ordered the kitchen to prepare breakfast. ”

"Hmm!" Donald nodded.

"The empty materials outside have been transported by me, I'll go to the manor after eating, and you continue to process the order for the remaining materials!"

The upfront was all infrastructure, and Donald didn't hire outsiders to help. Instead, he was ready to build the estate on his own.

Kede asked with some confusion:

"What about the workers who build the manor, we can't muster enough workers temporarily, and the design of the manor building also needs an experienced designer!"

The old butler didn't know why, but Donald knew how lucky he was to have the artifact of the Book of Truth. Donald didn't explain either, only showed the newly changed badge and said:

"You don't have to worry about this, Uncle Cod! The power of a mage can solve everything! I am now an official Black Iron Mage!"

When Kede saw this, he let go of his doubts, his face was overjoyed, and his heart was full of pride.

"Okay! Okay! Great! The young master is already an official mage, and the rise of the Merlina family is just around the corner!"

Looking at the housekeeper's excited and relieved appearance, Donald's heart was also happy, and it was not in vain that he would live in this world instead of Donald, who had gone!

After a hearty aristocratic breakfast, Donald left the house satisfied. At this point, the cooldown of his teleportation skill had ended, and after coming to a deserted place outside the town, he cast his teleportation spell and reached the wooden house in the small manor waiting to be built.

Releasing the materials that had previously been stored in the spatial imprint and stacking them in the open space of the manor, Donald looked at this land of his own with joy in his heart.

"Although this manor is close to Boulder City and the Red Maple Barony, it is now a territory directly under the royal family, so I don't need to pay taxes to these two lords, I only need to pay a symbolic three percent of the net profit to the royal family every year in accordance with the manor law!"

"But there is also a trick in this, and the average manor owner will try his best to increase the cost on the books and reduce the net profit in order to save the cost of paying taxes!

Donald knew more or less about this in his childhood memories.

The nobleman's estate is not a territory, but a territory can replace multiple estates!

In the beginning, manors appeared because the state or the big lord lacked funds for some reason, so it was a way to make money by enclosing a piece of land and selling it to his subjects who had no territory but had a high status. Under the witness of the true gods of this world, if the owner of the manor does not lose his heir, the royal family or nobility as a lord cannot be recovered.

Over the years, the manor has become the exclusive private land of the nobility. However, the manor is not as good as a real territory, and the owner of the manor can only grow crops, open workshops and other economic development projects, and has no power to collect the people and raise private soldiers.

The meaning of the previous sentence is that the nobles with manors are not necessarily the nobility of the field, and the nobility of the field with fiefs can divide as many manors as they want from their own territory. Of course, except for a very small number of nobles, it is rare for them to divide their own territories in this way. Generally, the creation of manors was a reward given by the upper nobles to the knights and retainers who were loyal to them.

Insiders, including his butler, were puzzled by Donald's choice of these two legendary cursed manor fights.

But after all, Donald's soul comes from the era of information explosion, and his vision is naturally different from that of some merchants and aristocrats in this world. Donald had the foresight not to buy a few fertile estates for sale near Boulder City, but instead chose this wasteland under the Green Cloak Forest and the Cape of Izumo Mountain with the foolish eyes of some insiders.

The reason for this choice is that the manor near Boulder City, although fertile, has been well run by successive owners. But those places are not only generally expensive, but also have little room for development. Although he has the wealth of thousands of gold soles in his hands, for a wealthy local nobleman like Baron Red Maple, it is only equivalent to the production of a territory for a year or two.

The remote wasteland he purchased was not only low-cost, large-scale, but also remote, which was very suitable for his own development. As for the Demonic Beast Infestation and the like, they don't come, and they do to increase the production of his estate.

"Although I haven't studied running a farm manor, I've played a lot of farm manor-like simulation construction games, and with the super cheat of the Book of Truth, building and running a manor is not a piece of cake?"

Looking up at this vast piece of land, which would be the beginning of his development, Donald walked to the previously planned position in a good mood.

There was a portion of wood and stone piled up, and where the Book of Truth was opened, Donald chose the call of the Terran basic construction unit Farm.

"Book of Truth, summon the Terran farm for me!"

Because of the preparation of basic materials, the energy required to summon the farm can save 80% of the energy required to summon the farm.

As soon as Donald's words fell, a large area of golden light ingested those materials, and after the light flashed, a farm covering an area of twenty acres instantly appeared on the large land on the left side of the manor.

After a few breaths, the phantom turned into reality under Donald's excited gaze, and a small but well-planned farm was established.
