Chapter 41 Training and Construction
The assessment is the same as last time, still lifting stones. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info according to the strength of the 180 lords selected from high to low to join the knight guard.
In the morning's recruitment, the knight guard was full, and all 180 warriors were recruited.
Those who failed to join felt regretful, and those who passed the assessment were excited.
The Knight Guard has grown suddenly, and the management needs to be adjusted. The supreme commander of the guard is naturally Sean, and below Sean are the two captains, namely Bennett and Osvid. Under the two group leaders, there are ten squad leaders in each. Everyone competes for the post, and the strong is on top.
Once a month.
Aside from Bennett and Osvid, the 18 veteran members undoubtedly occupy the 18 squad leader spots. After high-intensity training, they cultivated the Demon Flame Combat Technique, and their strength, endurance, and physique improved a lot in all aspects, completely crushing those new members.
Of course, they have only been training for a month, and no one has become a first-level fighter for the time being, and the new members still have a chance to catch up. The training of the knight guards is even more perverted than before, with the addition of a doctor, and an abundance of recovery and healing potions, Sean trains them to death.
While training them, Sean is also training himself.
The combination of ordinary training and combat skills practice is the fastest way to progress.
With Sean as the lord taking the lead, the others worked harder. You can feel your own improvement every day, and no one will be lazy. In addition to the training of personal strength, Sean also made a lot of hard work in cooperative operations. In his previous life, he had heard and heard many methods for training the army, all of which were used by Sean on the knight guards.
Without firearms, there was no way to train what to line up to shoot, so Sean trained them to line up to shoot arrows.
Fifty sets of warrior equipment arrived, among which were fifty strong bows. The bow and arrow are not small, and Sean can't pull it to the limit even if he pulls the bow with all his might. Those Guards soldiers are even more inadequate. When the weapons are insufficient, the bifurcation time allows them to rotate continuously.
Fifty people practiced bayonet spears, fifty people practiced sword chopping, fifty people practiced drawing bows and arrows, and fifty people wore iron armor to practice carrying weights. Rotates every five days.
Sean also practiced archery.
The arrows are faster with the blessing of Wind Breaker. It's just that the accuracy of the arrow needs to be strengthened.
Wind Breaker is a new spell that Sean learned from the Complete Interpretation of Wind First-Order Magic, consisting of three basic runes. A third-level mage can unleash all first-order magic, and Sean doesn't need it, he is ready to master it completely.
There are a total of thirty-seven first-order magic of the wind system, and it takes a lot of time to fully master them.
Sean is not in a hurry, practicing one by one.
Every day in the knightly realm is fulfilling.
Train the guards to train themselves by the way, meditate, practice magic, learn apothecary, refine potions, write books...... These things fill Sean's time, and even if there is four times the speed of time flow in the bud space, it is a little insufficient.
The construction of the knightly domain is also underway.
The construction of the lord's manor is completed, and the next step is the construction of the watchtower and the city defense of Beecher Town. The watchtower is simple and can be built by cutting wood on the spot. Sean plans to set up three watchtowers in each of the south, north, and west directions of Beecher Town.
To the east is the Star Field Misty Sea.
Be prepared for danger in times of peace.
The watchtower was built not only to guard against the invasion of roaming bandits, but also to guard against the movement of fierce beasts in the mountains and forests. Of course, it was more to guard against Egbert's petty movements.
"Egbert, this guy won't be too honest, the last operation failed, and this time the offensive force will definitely be stronger!"
Thinking of the mole mercenary group that slaughtered the knight's manor, Sean felt even more pressed for time.
As for the urban defense construction of Beecher Town, the original Beecher Town will be used as the core to build a small city that is five times the size of Beecher Town. Such a city is not as good as Zilan City, but it is not a problem to accommodate tens of thousands of residents. Sean is ready to relocate the residents of Evan Town to make it easier to manage.
There are no resources near Avon Town, as long as there is a house and a certain settlement fee, it is not difficult for the residents of Avon Town to relocate.
The construction of the city walls is underway.
The knights received money to hire the labor of Beecher and Evon to build the walls. Sean also specially invited a master builder from Zilan City to plan and prepare to build the knight's lead into the strongest rear.
Funds are spent like water.
The lion's share of the cost was in the training of the knights and the construction of the city walls.
15 copper coins for a normal recovery potion, and 20 copper coins for a normal healing potion.
The Knight Guards train and consume about 40 silver coins per day for recovery potions and healing potions. The two team leaders have a warrior's elixir every day, the twenty squad leaders have a warrior's elixir every five days, and the ordinary members have a warrior's elixir every half a month, adding up to 540 warrior's elixirs for one month.
The 300 copies that Sean got from Philomena could only last for half a month.
Counting the monthly salary expenditure of 228 silver coins, just 200 guards soldiers would need 916 silver coins. Combined with the expenditure of military doctors and medicinal materials, the total cost is about 10 gold coins.
"Burn money!"
Seeing the money spent like flowing water, Sean felt distressed for a while.
But this money is necessary and cannot be saved.
200 Guards Warriors can take out 10 Tier 3 Warriors or Tier 3 Mages in a single salvo. Even if it is a lone level 4 mage and level 4 warrior, 200 guard soldiers will be able to deal with it.
There is strength in numbers!
Ants bite elephants to death!
In the face of the strength of the army, the strength of the individual is limited after all. At least for now.
The construction of the army was in full swing, and the construction of the city walls was somewhat slow.
There is a shortage of various basic construction equipment and a shortage of stones, which seriously delays the construction process. There's not much Sean can do about it. The large stones for the construction of the city need to be transported by wheelbarrows, and they need to be lifted by pulleys. The stones need to be cut, and there is a lack of cutting equipment. Stone bonding, which requires adhesive materials......
All kinds of problems, Sean is a little anxious.
Whether it's wheelbarrows, pulley lever lifting equipment, stones, stone-cutting equipment, or adhesives, the Knight's Collar cannot be produced in-house and needs to be purchased from outside. These big money eaters made Sean's funds bottom out all of a sudden. In comparison, labor is cheap.
"I thought it was easy to build a city. ”
At the end of the morning training, Sean stood on the towering trees of the swampy forest, looking at the construction of the city wall in full swing in the distance, and felt bitter in his heart.
The 35 low-grade magic crystals were not used, and most of the 152 gold coins that Sean brought back had already been spent. The construction of the city walls has only just begun, and not even a complete section of the wall has yet to be built. Various equipment was purchased one after another, and the stone and adhesive were bottomless holes, gulping down gold coins.
"Damn, isn't burning cement a must-have skill for traversers?"
Thinking of cement, Sean was full of resentment.
In my previous life, I read a novel that said that it was not too easy for a fire mage to burn cement. So Sean asked people to dig a cave in the mountain, and tricked Novia into releasing flames to burn cement, but Novia, who was choked with a black face, held a fireball technique and almost chased Sean to the Star Field!
The development of cement ended before it began.
I had no choice but to use a lot of gold coins to continue to buy those high-priced adhesives. The good thing is that these are things that can be solved with money.
There are many problems with building the city, which makes Sean upset for a while. But in terms of his own cultivation and improvement in all aspects, Sean is very satisfied.
After half a day of training with the guards every day, Sean's physical fitness improved rapidly. With the assistance of the Warrior Spirit, it won't take long to be promoted to a second-level warrior.
In terms of magic, after switching to the Abyss Meditation Method, Sean's mental power grew faster. Sean, who was about to reach the peak of the third level, had already touched the bottleneck of the third level on the third day after returning to the knight's domain. After breaking through, you will be able to reach the fourth-level mage level.
From a third-level mage to a fourth-level mage, as long as they accumulate a lot of strength and have strong spiritual power, they can break through directly with their strength. This method is the most brutal and the most direct. The disadvantage is that it takes time to accumulate, and it takes a lot of energy to improve every trace of mental power after reaching a bottleneck.
Another way.
The three wind blades of the spiritual power space are full of repulsive force, and the wind whirlwind is constructed to produce suction. Suction and repulsion are balanced, so that the three wind blades form a triangular matrix, and they can also be promoted to a fourth-level mage.
Sean uses both methods.
While meditating for ten hours a day to improve mental power, he studied the triangular matrix and pondered the repulsion and suction. According to Sean's speed, perhaps before becoming a second-level warrior, he can be promoted to a fourth-level mage.
In terms of pharmacy, the fundamentals of pharmacy copied from the academy library were digested little by little by Shaun.
Every day, in the bud space and reality, refine the elixir of the gods and the elixir of the warrior. The Cleansing Elixir was provided to Panis and Novia for use, and the two of them used one Elixir for three days, and Sean could still have more than ten copies of the Elixir Cleansing Potion refined every day.
Twenty servings of the warrior's elixir are refined every day, enough for Sean and the knight to lead the guards to use, and there are still some left.
The refining of both potions was extremely proficient, and the refining of twenty parts of each could not even take two hours to complete.
The Demon Sect Potion is also working research.
With a total of eleven steps of Demon Sect Elixir, Sean has mastered the ninth step. After Sean reaches the fourth level mage, he should be able to master them all, and he can directly refine them at that time.
Every afternoon, Sean takes the blue moon deep into the swampy forest, or the Ogre Mountains to explore. Fight fierce beasts and demonic beasts to hone your combat skills, and at the same time find suitable domesticated beasts.
The knight led the guards without mounts, and the ordinary war horse Sean was not satisfied. He was going to look in the swampy forests or the Ogre Mountains. In these places, it is likely that there are large group beasts and monsters. Qingyue gradually grows, and with the coercion of Qingyue's third-order lower demonic beasts, he may be able to tame them.
The mastery of magic and combat skills grew rapidly in actual combat.
The magic on the "Complete Solution of the First Order of Wind Magic" has been mastered one by one, and the Demon Flame Combat Technique, the Wind Thirteen Strikes, and the Wind Leg Combat Skill have become more and more proficient.
Time passes.
Sean is undergoing a metamorphosis in the Knight's Domain.
Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
