Chapter 61: Demon Plant-Evergreen Ivy [2-in-1]
The three adult dragon eagles circled for a moment before landing in the clearing in front of William.
William looked up at the dragon eagle.
That's right, even if the dragon eagle is standing on flat ground, it is taller than William, which shows the strength of this creature, flying creatures are not known for their height, even so, the dragon eagle has such a height, not to mention its wingspan.
"Phew-"
A dragon eagle cried, stretching its neck and rubbing against William.
William didn't pay attention to it and was almost knocked over by it, but fortunately he adjusted the center in time to avoid falling.
"That's a lot of strength!"
Carefully look at the dragon eagle in front of you,
The goshawk-like head has a sharp beak, sharp eyes, and white feathers with a steely sheen on the skull. As for the body of the dragon eagle, it is a bit mysterious, seven points like an eagle, three points like a dragon, the dragon here refers to the classic Western dragon, especially the wings, the characteristics are more distinct.
The feathers on his body are not as shiny as ordinary birds, but more like they are made of steel.
William jumped lightly and jumped onto Long Ying's back, his legs were just enough to clamp the depression of Long Ying's abdomen, with a slight force, Long Ying did not react at all, William understood, riding Dragon Eagle can be without reins, as long as the legs are clamped tightly, everything is not a problem.
Of course, if the strength of the lower limbs is insufficient, it is a big deal to bend down and hug Long Ying's neck.
"It's just a little prick in the butt."
Although the feathers on the dragon eagle's back are not real steel, under William's feelings, the defense is probably not inferior to steel.
William didn't wear full body armor today, and only put on two pieces of cloth clothes on his lower body, and sat on Long Ying's back a little bit.
The thought turned back and gently patted Long Ying's back.
So, under Just's gaze, the dragon eagle rose from the ground, pulled up in an almost right-angled arc, and flew into the sky in an instant.
A hundred miles away, but a cup of tea.
It's the first time to ride a dragon eagle, and although it has an equestrian body, it is two completely different types of mounts.
William thought it would be very jerky, but it turned out to be the opposite.
During the flight, William hardly had to control the dragon eagle, because the dragon eagle was quite intelligent, or very spiritual.
"There's a pack of wolves down there, test your strength."
With a slight order, the dragon eagle suddenly swooped down.
It's an arc of nearly 90 degrees.
William was riding on the back of the dragon eagle, his upper body parallel to the ground, and if it weren't for the tight clamping of his legs, he would have thought he was experiencing a fall after being accelerated by a magnetic coil.
"Phew-"
Ordinary birds rarely make sounds when hunting, so as not to alarm their prey.
But the dragon eagle is different, it actually took the lead, in William's observation, more than a dozen wild wolves on the ground were shocked, and before they could react, the dragon eagle had arrived!
Like a dragonfly dotting water, the dragon eagle swept above the wolves.
Under the talons of each of the two eagles is a wild wolf.
The wolf struggled a few times, and with the blood gushing out of its belly pierced by the eagle's talons, it quickly turned into a corpse.
William then experimented several more times, allowing the dragon eagle to attack stones, walk through the woods, dodge obstacles, and so on.
The results were encouraging.
Aside from the extremely hard stones of black porphyry, ordinary mountain stones are no different from sackcloth under the talons of eagles.
β¦β¦
"How's it going, sir?"
"It's worthy of the special mount of the original Plegwe, it is indeed amazingly strong!"
William couldn't help but shake his head and smile when he saw Just's fiery eyes.
Resolute and reliable Just Thorn can't keep his heart steady when facing the Dragon Eagle mount.
"Three adult dragon eagles, you pick one by yourself, and the remaining two will stay in the rock pillar peak to raise fish cubs, and after a year, the little dragon eagle can forage alone, and the two adult dragon eagles can leave the rock pillar peak a little."
"My lord, why don't you pick one?"
Justter hesitated, if the lord himself didn't pick one to mount, he wouldn't be able to.
"Of course, who doesn't love a mount like Dragon Eagle."
Patting him on the shoulder, William smiled: "It's just that I am a lord after all, and I rarely have the opportunity to leave Black Rock Fort, and now bringing them to Black Rock Fort can only waste their talent, you pick one first, and I will have a task for you later." β
At this point, Just said no more.
Avoiding the dragon eagle that William had ridden just now, he chose one of the other two.
β¦β¦
Black Rock Fort,
Barron led all the officials together, and when they saw Just, who was riding a dragon eagle, they were all stunned.
This creature has never been seen in the entire kingdom of Saidus, especially as a mount.
Scoot's eyes reddened.
Goulande was envious.
Brayman was a little afraid to blush because he was the knight.
The other warriors were okay to say, but why were government officials like Picios so hot-eyed, staring at the dragon eagle intently, and the ghost sent him forward to caress him, but he was flapped by the dragon eagle's wings and flew three meters away.
"Good! Good! Or the most powerful mount of this kind! β
Pisius, who was fanned away, was not angry, and output all kinds of praise to the dragon eagle without repeating the same.
"Alright, don't revolve around the dragon eagle."
After everyone admired the dragon eagle, William spoke:
"Because I have a task to give Just, I will equip him with a dragon eagle first, but don't worry, as long as you work hard, you will also have a chance to get a dragon eagle in the future."
Whispers erupted in the council chamber.
From William's words, they learned a message that this dragon eagle was not an exception, and perhaps the lord had a stable way to tame the dragon eagle. What makes them even happier is that everyone has a chance to get the Dragon Eagle!
Scott's face was already red.
Dragon Eagle Knight, he's done!
But when I thought about it, the passion was extinguished in an instant.
He is the great knight sent to William by the royal capital, and he can only protect William for one year, and he will return to the royal capital at the end of the year.
Neither could he follow William for long, nor did he swear allegiance to William... In this case, how can you have a mount like Dragon Eagle.
"Alas... Suddenly I don't want to go back to the royal capital......"
William took a sip of white water and took in the expressions of everyone, especially Scott and Gooland.
After seeing Scott's expression, William nodded secretly, this is what he wants, otherwise he wouldn't have deliberately let Jaster ride the dragon eagle to the meeting, isn't it just to stimulate them.
Now, it seems, Scott was already moved.
Perhaps we will soon be able to discuss with him about staying in Barron's Territory.
As for the Goland... William glanced at it and retracted his gaze.
From the previous information and experience, he had already figured out how to deal with Guland, that is, to try his best to win him over, even if he couldn't win him over, he couldn't let him go back to the second prince.
The big knight who picked it up in vain has no reason to return it the way it came.
And if you want to impress Guland, it depends on whether Long Ying is attractive to him.
"Just."
Putting down the water glass, William looked at the powerful knight.
"Your Excellency."
"The flight speed of the dragon eagle is amazing, and the staying power is not weak, you can double as an aerial scout first, and the time limit is a week. During the week, investigate the traces of the alien... I guess they won't leave Barron so easily... Find them, look for opportunities, if there are no opportunities, then create opportunities, and then take the dreadnought vanguard to train the soldiers. β
Training?
Using a foreign race to train troops?
I'm afraid that in the entire border of the Side Kingdom, only Lord William has this kind of domineering.
"Do you want to do your best to destroy the leader of the other party?" Just asked.
"No, the first task is to train soldiers, and I hope that the Barron Territory can give birth to more knight-level warriors."
"Yes!"
Then everyone discussed a series of things that were not significant, but needed to be decided by William, such as the war pension, the promotion of soldiers, and the replenishment of vacancies in the garrison legion... The main thing is around the garrison legion.
Because the alien race failed to break through the city of abundance this time, there was no loss in other aspects except for the soldiers.
Many of the plans prepared before to deal with the destruction of Rich City failed to be used.
At the end of the meeting, William looked at Picios and said:
"This time to repel the alien race, the Barron Territory should usher in a short period of peace, this time is precious, we must quickly develop the Barron Territory's commerce."
"Business?" Pisius said respectfully: "There are no unique commercial resources in the Barron's realm, and the previous commercial taxes relied on a few nobles, who traded between the Barron's realm and other realms, so as to maintain the main commerce of the Barron's realm.
If commerce is to be strengthened, perhaps some nobles will be needed to support it. β
"Well, no problem."
William nodded,
"If you want the horses to run, you have to give them grass. Tell those nobles who have influence in business, no, not limited to nobles, but all merchants above the middle scale, you can tell them.
As long as I can increase Barron's purchasing power and productivity, I can fully support him.
This includes, but is not limited to, the military escort of caravans, the reduction of taxes, the granting of official positions, the training of knights for their children... As long as they are able, they will be the most glorious merchants in my Barron's Territory! β
William's plan was inspired by a past life.
If you want to develop a city's economy, in addition to the advantageous resources within the city, the biggest help is policy support.
For example, the reason why they were able to achieve economic take-off on the other side of the sea is that they have found a father, and on the other hand, it has something to do with the policies they implement.
During a certain period of time, they implemented the national policy of the military government and devoted all their efforts to supporting leading enterprises.
The effect is obvious.
The economy has indeed taken off.
β¦β¦
The meeting ended, and everyone left.
William practiced in the training ground for half an hour, took a shower, and sat down in the study.
Suddenly, his mind sank into the Heart of Origi.
As was customary, a hero could be summoned each time a node building was built.
After the dragon eagle's lair was built this time, he hadn't had time to summon it.
[Congratulations on the completion of the reconstruction node - Dragon Eagle Lair, you can summon a pet, do you want to summon it?] γ
William subconsciously prepared to summon, but suddenly stopped his voice.
"Can you summon a pet?"
"How is it to summon a pet, wasn't it a hero who was summoned last time?"
It's a pity that O'Rigit's heart didn't answer, William thought for a moment and said softly: "Summon." β
γSummoning......
[Congratulations on summoning - Demon Plant - Evergreen Ivy.] γ
[Introduction: A magic plant with low intelligence, once rooted, it can only move in a small area, and can be used as a defense, this evergreen vine has three main vines, twelve branches, and countless roots and leaves. γ
[Note: The leaves of the evergreen ivy have a good buff effect on cultivators, and the growth rate of the leaves is extremely fast. γ
The first time a pet is summoned.
William looked at the introduction word by word in great detail.
His gaze lingered on the [Demon Plant] for a few breaths.
Since there are [Demon Plants], is there still [Animals]? The odds are high.
In fact, strictly speaking, the dragon eagle is also a kind of pet, but the dragon eagle and the [Dragon Eagle Lair] belong to the binding relationship, and the system also directly gives a group of dragon eagles.
"There are indeed many magical plants and magical animals on the continent of Origi, and they are similar to Seranie, they are all lucky people born with magical powers."
"This ivy must be one of them."
After a closer look,
William came to the outside of the castle, planted ivy on the right side of the main castle, and looked up to see the window of his study just above.
It's a good location to play the defensive role of the ivy perfectly.
The seeds fall to the ground, grow rapidly, and go up the wall, like creepers, and even the distribution of branches and vines is almost the same.
Soon, the growth ends.
By this time, the ivy had covered one-third of the wall, and the branches at the top even exceeded the windows on the second floor.
"Sure enough, there are a lot of leaves!"
The leaves of the evergreen vine are very dense, covering the vines firmly, and then pinching them, it is estimated that there are dozens or hundreds of pieces.
William was a very careful person,
So he became a mathematician and counted the vines one by one.
It is determined that there are three main vines and twelve branch vines.
What William cares about the most is not the defensive ability of the ivy, but its auxiliary ability. First, it can only move in a small area, this small range is really small, limited to Black Rock Fort, and second, Black Rock Fort is his base camp, if he really lets the enemy kill here, presumably an evergreen ivy can't reverse the form.
- Has a good buff effect on cultivators.
Does this cultivator refer to the Dou Qi class or the magic class?
Get your feet wet.
Pluck a leaf, small, only the size of a thumb print, emerald green throughout, shallow veins.
Follow the prompts and stuff it directly into your mouth......
Then he began to cultivate, according to the upgraded version of the [Basic Knight Sword Technique] [Golden Dou Qi Cultivation Method], this is a static skill, not a dynamic skill like cultivating a sword technique.
[Golden Dou Qi Cultivation Method] is the exclusive cultivation method of the Sydes royal family.
Calm your mind, mobilize the fighting energy in your body, and find a specific way to function.
Suddenly, the evergreen vine leaves were like ice and snow, exuding a hint of coolness, and William swallowed it into his stomach in time, only to feel that from the tongue coating to the throat, and then to the stomach, the entire organ passage was cold.
Five minutes later,
"Whew!"
William slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath, an excited expression on his face.
"A leaf, worth my progress in two or three days, it's amazing."
You must know that he is now an official knight, and he is cultivating the [Golden Douqi Cultivation Method] that can only be cultivated by princes and princesses, and the progress is already extraordinary... It can be seen that the buff effect of evergreen vine leaves is very strong.
"I don't know if it will have an effect on the Grand Knight, but what about the Magician......"
"What kind of effect will it be if it is used when breaking the realm......
