Chapter 11: The Mage's Tower (Part II)

As a mage's apprentice, Modell's knowledge and knowledge are more than those of Fei Xi around him, and only he can keep up with Lu Bin's leapfrog thinking. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It is said that the accumulation of burnt ash in farmland is a way to replenish soil fertility, and straw residue is left in the ground to soak and rot. Well, let me think about it again...... Planting legumes can slightly increase the yield per mu. ”

Fisc didn't know the value of the information revealed by the wandering mage Lord Reze, and only Moder sat up straight in awe, memorizing everything word for word.

Some of them were secrets he knew, and the other was a method of increasing production that he had never thought of, which was naturally of little use to the mage, but for the territory, as long as it could increase the production a little, Baron Freuyd would laugh even if he dreamed.

"It is true that I have traveled all over the world and met many wandering mages who have met many customs and customs, and every word contains the insight of wisdom and insight. It's just that I'm a little confused about whether he did it on purpose or if it was unintentional. ”

There was a slight bump of the wheels running over the bumpy gravel road from under the seat, and the anti-shock force of the rigid suspension made Lu Bin, who was used to comfortable travel, couldn't help frowning, but he restrained himself well and didn't show too much emotion.

Unexpectedly, Moder, who was always paying attention to him, discovered in time that in order to extract more valuable knowledge from this "treasure mountain", the mage apprentice with the image of an honest scholar had to use some Feys-style tricks.

Lu Bin's answer was not complaining, but he had a unique insight into the design of the wheels, and according to what he saw during the trip, he vividly proposed a spring-based shock absorber auxiliary structure.

This time, even Fisch was overwhelmed by the idea of "Lord Reiz", there were no frequent bumps that people could only endure so hard, and there was only a slight shock in the whole process.

"This will help improve the Territory's bus transport system!"

Master Mountbatten, who learns everything with the help of the Eye of Watch, has reinstated the importance of the wandering mage, a mage who roams the lands and whose knowledge along the way is a great asset that will bring foreseeable prosperity to the Barony of Freud.

"Such a man must be firmly grasped in his hands, and the leader of the harpists dares to try to solicit, and cut off his claws in advance. ”

Fifty miles was not a short journey, and even the best-maintained stagecoach had to change horses twice along the way, and it would have taken nearly four hours, and it was getting dark to get the three casters to the Mage's Tower, which was not far from Eton Manor.

The owner who sent out the invitation letter greeted him at the door in person, Lu Bin, who didn't know the rules, had a normal face, Moder and Faich glanced at each other, and the female apprentice was a little puzzled by Master Mountbatten's grand treatment.

Only Moder knew the details of "Lord Reez", and it was indeed worthy of the teacher's condescending greeting, and he took a few quick steps to greet Master Mountbatten on his chest, and then stepped aside.

In spite of his usual arrogance, Fisch had to maintain a "ladylike" posture in front of his esteemed teacher, and after following the same etiquette, he retreated to Master Mountbatten's side.

At the invitation of the master, Lu Bin walked through the gate of the Mage Tower, and immediately felt refreshed, waiting for Master Mountbatten to sit down in the living room on the first floor before sitting in his own place.

This unpretentious respect pleased the master, and although he had a rough understanding of the other with the help of the two apprentices, he introduced himself politely, followed by a less in-depth conversation.

Master Mountbatten's clever conversation skills made Lu Bin feel like a spring breeze, but Moder and Faich, who couldn't open their mouths because of the rules, sat on the chairs in the living room, and couldn't get up to leave, very boring but could only forcibly endure it.

When the two talked about spell-casting techniques, the stomach of Lord Rez, the wandering mage, rumbled at the right time, which was embarrassing and relieved of the awkward atmosphere.

Through the skylight on the first floor of the Mage Tower, it was already dark outside, and Master Mountbatten got up to apologize, and the dinner that had been prepared for a long time was served to the two apprentices.

A plate of lightly browned white bread slices, accompanied by a plate of sweet strawberry jam, fried smoked herring, sprinkled with a little lime juice, the familiar taste surprised Lu Bin a little, and then understood.

There was freshly pressed juice on the table, warm water mixed with honey, but there was no ale wine with even a very low degree, Lu Bin remembered that Moder had said that the mage was taboo, to follow the precept of not drinking a drop of alcohol, originally thought it was just talking, but he didn't expect it to be true.

After a brief dinner, and there was no aftermath of a fireside chat, Master Mountbatten was quite sympathetic to "Lord Reze", who had gone through a long journey and needed a good rest, and specially instructed Modell to clean up the guest room on the second floor, and stuff a silver key into the hand of the proud apprentice.

"As is customary, the teacher would rest in his meditation room after dinner, and he didn't want to interrupt his daily practice for trivial matters. Dear Lord Rez, please follow me to the second floor to rest. ”

In the huge living room, only Fei Xi was left alone, pouting and sullenly cleaning up the mess alone, Lu Bin did not step forward to help, he found that he had better not act rashly.

In the guest room on the second floor of the Mage Tower, Moder took out the upturned bedding, and although the movement was a little rusty, it was quickly laid.

After Lu Bin thanked him, he watched the other party retreat and leave the room, and after closing the door, he did not immediately go to bed, but meditated alone in the dark after becoming familiar with the surrounding environment.

It wasn't until the moon shone through the clouds and fell on the wandering mage through the windowsill that he raised his head, and the corners of his eyes were imperceptibly a little damp.

He suddenly wanted to get up and walk, just walked back and forth in the room, and it didn't take long for Lu Bin to come to the door and reach out to hold the latch.

In the meditation room on the third floor of the Mage Tower, Master Mountbatten opened his eyes and looked at the every move of Lord Rez in the crystal ball, without any expression, and Faich next to him showed such a smile, while Moder looked a little melancholy.

"Look, look! I knew he was restless, and wanted to take advantage of the cover of the night to move around the house wantonly, and maybe he had a habit of taking sheep by the hand. ”

Moder didn't open his mouth to refute, he just whispered to Master Mountbatten: "Teacher, I used the key you gave me to open the internal protection of the second floor. Has an animate armor and is a knight rank trainee, proficient in slashing and stabbing. ”

After hearing this, Fei Xi was like a frightened night cat: "There is only one activated armor, how can it be so small, the number must be at least doubled." ”

Moder was about to open his mouth to refute, but the owner of the mage tower was already very much looking forward to the next development, and reprimanded.

"Quiet!"

Lu Bin, who pushed the door out, walked around the second floor, and when he came to the bookcase in the northeast corner, there was a full-coverage armor set on a stand on the left and right, and he stared curiously at one of them.

Fei Xi was a little strange: "Instead of going to the bookcase to flip through the books, but looking at the knight's armor, he is really a spellcaster?"

Moder couldn't help but open his mouth to fight back: "The cabinet is full of ordinary books, but on the contrary, it is the armor that casts the activation technique, and the thin arcane energy, maybe he will be aware of it." ”

Lu Bin studied for a long time but didn't find it, and according to Fei Xi's idea, he finally stretched out his dirty and sinful hand to the bookcase and took out an ancient book with a bronze cover, triggering the conditions for activating the armor to activate the internal protection.

A knight's armor half a head taller than ordinary people walked down from the iron support, and the slight movement immediately woke up Lu Bin, and in the face of the sword blade that slashed over, he released the defensive rune without hesitation.

"Boom!"

The invisible defensive barrier, cut out of a faint crack by the sword of the steel fire, this scene made the careful Fei Xi see it, and immediately let out an exclamation, covering his mouth with his left hand, and pointing at the flaw of Lord Reze with his right hand.

"Don't jump to conclusions!" Moder was still waiting for the wandering mage to fight back, and a mere activation armor should not be difficult for Lord Reze.

Lu Bin currently only has the defensive runes of the unupgraded "Wandering Mage", he knows that he will lose if he defends it for a long time, and understands that too much movement may alarm the people of the Mage Tower, so he turned his heart to the side in a hurry, and summoned the "rancid lone wolf" who had not been in the place of bones for a long time to transform.

"Huh...... Minions"

The spell book unfolded, and a cloud of black mist poured out, like the ink spit out by an octopus in danger, as if a portal had opened out of thin air, and a wild wolf with tattered fur burst out of thin air.

Round 2, begin!
