The reason why Sean thinks that this thing has not been taken by the nobles is not because of how hidden it is, but because it is so common and ordinary that it is unrecognizable to anyone who sees it.

Full of anticipation, Sean ascended to the tenth floor of the Mage's Tower, also known as the top of the tower.

Most mage towers have a stargazing platform at the top of the tower, which can help the elemental pool absorb energy from the sky and also provide some help for mages in casting spells.

Lauren's Mage Tower, on the other hand, has no elemental pools, so there are only a few open-air areas on the tenth floor, and some miscellaneous items are piled up elsewhere.

In addition to this, the wall in a small corner of the tenth floor is actually hollow, and it can be opened by entering the correct mana fluctuations into it, and inside are some items of unknown effect that Lauren has acquired over the years.

Walking to the corner, Sean found that it had been found and destroyed, the thick walls and some rune enchantment devices had been smashed to pieces, and he could even see the empty room inside directly from the hole.

However, Sean still had a hint of luck in his heart, and he walked straight in, finding that the spell traps originally arranged by Lauren had all failed.

Looking up again, the place where the illumination runes were burned was also opened, and it was a secret room within a secret room, which mainly stored several rare and small items.

"Tsk, there's nothing left."

After a slight glance at the interior of the small chamber with the mage's eye, Sean muttered with some regret.

Although there weren't many things placed here before he left, and even if they were taken away, it wasn't worth a few dollars, but he was still a little distressed, and the killing intent towards Count Broad in his heart became even stronger.

But then again, who would put a real treasure in a secret room?

With an uncontrollable smile on his face, Sean walked out of the secret room, carefully counted the shelves with miscellaneous items on the side, and finally confirmed his goal.

These metal racks look unremarkable, as if they are made of some common alloy, which is not only cheap and difficult to carry, but even has poor plasticity, and even if it is taken back, it can only be sold as scrap metal.

Of course, the money-hungry aristocrats would not pay attention to these broken shelves, but they must not have imagined that between the countless pluggable boards on these metal shelves, some of them have hidden mysteries.

Sean crouched down in front of one of the metal shelves and removed the bottom slick board.

On the surface, it is no different from other metal plates, but in fact, its material is wonderful, and although it has extremely powerful magical powers, if it is analyzed with a psychic examination, there is nothing out of the ordinary.

According to Lauren's research, this is likely to be the legendary universal metal, which is a special alchemical product that is widely used by professionals above the official level.

The reason why the universal metal is called universal is that the user can change its various parameters by some simple means, although the limit is not high, but because it has the property that can be used many times, so it has this name.

Some less affluent professionals, or professional organizations, often use a large number of all-purpose metals to avoid the high cost of replacing basic materials for large equipment.

Of course, the low level here is for the precious materials in the eyes of those powerful professionals, and for apprentice-level mages like Lauren and Sean, universal metal is of course a good treasure that is hard to find.

Lauren studied this thing for a long time to figure out how it should be used, but the freedom to change its parameters was very high from the perspective of a trainee mage.

So after transcribing the runes and energy circuits on it, Lauren incorporated them into her staff.

It wasn't until he had sold his fortune in large quantities in order to break through the formal hierarchy that he stripped the almighty metal and made most of its parameters the same as the cheap metal that was made into the shelves.

This thing is different from the staff, even after being promoted to the official level, it is very useful, although it is not worth a few dollars for the official level professional, but Lauren saw that the things used for the breakthrough were almost purchased, so he did not sell them together.

After Sean got the metal plate, he reshaped it into a small piece and carried it with him.

This is also an excellent material for strengthening staffs, although not as effective as Mithril, its versatile nature can replace many auxiliary materials, and make the two energies of the samsara staff more harmoniously combined.

Standing on the edge of the tenth floor, Sean glanced at the mage tower at his feet and jumped straight from the top of the tower.

His figure cut through the air and fell straight to the ground, slowing down a second before he hit the ground.

The mage's mana is like their own hands and feet, which can be mobilized and transformed at any time, and the reason why they need to build spell models and chant spells is actually just to allow the free ether in the air to amplify the spells.

It is said that before the birth of the professional system, that is, in the age of the gods, there were two main ways for mages to cast spells, which were to use spiritual power to mobilize the surrounding aether to cast spells, and to use the soul to store the aether in the body to cast spells.

Mages who use mental power to cast spells claim to pry the rules for their own use, but in fact they are very affected by the environment, and their power fluctuates in a large range, and the way these mages cast their spells is to build a spell model to directly absorb the ether, and once the model collapses, it will even be killed by their own spells.

The other is even more ridiculous, although their spells are relatively safe and convenient to cast, they have the so-called spell bit limit, that is, they can only store a certain amount of spells in the soul every day, and once they are used up, they need to be stored again after the soul is restored.

It was not until the rise of the Practitioner System that the Modern Mage, as one of the first professions to be integrated into this system, successfully combined the advantages of the two early mages, while discarding the shortcomings, and truly spread the name of the mage all over the world.

This is the core of the professional system, that is, the combination of soul power and aether to form a special aether that can be manipulated, and the professional will fuse spiritual power with soul power, so that when the soul power increases, it will increase synchronously with spiritual power.

Although the precision and strength of these synchronously increasing spiritual powers are much inferior to those of the transcendent systems that specialize in spiritual power, it is not difficult to synchronously strengthen them when the profession uses the xenoether as a support.

After a successful landing, Sean rode his Scarlet Horse and quickly left Lauren's Mage Tower, the army was not slow, he hoped to catch up with the vanguard and reach Teresa City at the same time as him, and find out about Brent Brodt by the way.

……

The speed of the Scarlet Warhorse did not disappoint Sean, and it didn't take long for him to catch up with the other members of the thirteenth team and lead them to the front of the group.

As the sky grew dark, the Silver Eagle Legion finally approached the city of Theresa.

Looking at the familiar road nearby, Sean couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

The days of more than a year have been like a dream, although he has worked hard every day, the level of the professional has risen rapidly, and he has even broken away from the bottom of the professional and successfully promoted to the apprentice level.

The news of the arrival of the Silver Eagle Legion quickly alarmed the nobles of Theresa, and they huddled outside the city of Theresa, and all kinds of flattering words followed.

Ignoring the surrendered guys, Camillo marched into the city with his army, intending to catch a few fatter pigs and slaughter them.

Yes, pigs.

This is the status of the nobles in front of Camillo's eyes, and the professionals in the Silver Eagle Legion have always looked down on these ordinary people who play with power all day long, especially Camillo, who is the commander of the legion, and regards them as a source of wealth.

Camillo has never been merciful to his enemies, and if it weren't for the battle of Lane City to make these nobles realize the absolute disparity in strength, I'm afraid their attitude would not be as humble as it is now.

"Ah, I found you."

A sneer tugged at the corners of Sean's mouth, and his gaze locked on a slightly obese guy in the crowd.

He was dressed in a gorgeous costume, and the smile on his face looked very sincere, and he looked like a good old man, if it weren't for Sean knowing his true nature, maybe he would really be deceived.

Brent Broad, Count of Wagner, is one of the weaker of the counts, and is said to have only one or two apprentice professionals under his command, far worse than Satuk Scarlet, who is also an earl.

Despite this, there were few people who could compete with him in a small place like Teresa, so Brod was one of the few nobles who stood at the front to meet the army, and only then was discovered by Sean.

However, there is one thing that makes Sean slightly puzzled, that is, there are inexplicably more people in these nobles than he knows, and they don't seem to be badly powerful, and they don't seem to be the native nobles of Theresa City.

Then it dawned on him that it was most likely a nobleman who had escaped from a few small nearby towns.

After their territory was cleared, they were forced to move to the city of Teresa, which had a large enough population and better living conditions than other places.

Yes, long before the war began, the city of Lane was chosen as a stronghold, and some of the most intelligent and mobile civilians left the city of Lane, and most of them came to the sparsely populated city of Theresa, with more vacant land and houses.

According to the information just came, the population of Teresa City has at least doubled, that is, more than 100,000 people, and although there are large rye and no large number of deaths due to famine, the living conditions are not very good.

But this has nothing to do with Sean, the only thing he wants to do now is to let Brent taste his own methods, and it is best to send this guy's soul back to the source sea after some torture.

It just so happened that along the way, Sean and Camilo also had a good relationship, and he knew that Camillo had the habit of picking some people to stand up for each place, so he used his mental power and mana to wrap his voice and whispered a few words to Camillo.

After hearing the news and advice given by Sean, Camillo turned his head and looked at him in surprise, but quickly nodded and agreed to his request.

……

At this time, Brent Broad was not aware of the danger that was coming, and he was like the other nobles, following the blood-colored horses of the Silver Eagle Legion, with a flattering smile trying to get in touch with these professionals.

Soon, Camilo himself came behind him on a blood-colored war horse and looked at him with a condescending expression.

The shadow shrouded Brent, and when he turned back in surprise, he was instantly startled by Camillo behind him.

Before he could offer his words of flattery, Camillo suddenly waved his hand to the soldiers around him, signaling them to arrest Brent.

"Big ...... My lord, may I ask you what is the matter? ”

Brent panicked instantly, bowing his head in front of the soldiers' weapons, not daring to move.

"I have never done anything to harm your interests, and I was even the first to surrender to you, although I am a nobleman of the Wagner Kingdom, I swear that I will fight for you!"

Camillo remained silent, still staring at his face, as if waiting for something.

……

Silence, short silence.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little strange, Brent gritted his teeth and said again.

"I am willing to give a thousand gold coins to support your army, please raise your noble hand and spare me."

"Huh." Sean sneered and rode to his side, but it was a pity that Brent kept his head down, and even if he occasionally glanced over, he was staring at Camillo, not paying attention to Sean's appearance.

When the surrounding nobles saw that Brent was in trouble, not only did they not want to help, but they even gloated a little, and they wanted to applaud on the spot.

"Brent Broad, do you still recognize me?"

Sean came up to Brent and asked with a hint of pleasure in his heart.

"Who are you?"

Slightly overwhelmed, Brent looked at Sean with a confused look, desperately searching his brain for similar faces.

Although Sean's appearance changed slightly after becoming a professional, it was not to the extent that he was unrecognizable, and seeing that Brent couldn't even remember who he was, Sean's face finally showed a trace of anger.

"It's okay, even if you don't know me anymore, we'll get acquainted with each other later."

Sean shook his staff, his expression gradually becoming cruel, "Legion Commander, leave this guy to me to deal with later." ”

Camillo on the side nodded casually, he already needed someone to cooperate with him, since Sean has an enmity with this person, it is not bad to target him.

"Mr. Brent Broad, that's right."

Camilo said slowly, the expression on his face not changing much.

"We've received reports that you once had a deep connection with a group of kobolds, and used them to do many bad things, even causing some harm to our legionnaires."

"This behavior of yours has seriously damaged the interests of our Karis Kingdom, so I have decided to sentence you to death and confiscate all your property, if you have any objections to my actions, I suggest that you appeal to the Temporary Command of the Karis Kingdom War after the punishment is completed."
