Chapter 279: The Academy and the Army, Knowledge and Power (2/4)
The high-level and elderly apprentices who came from afar, on the first day they met, basically had no trust at all.
But if he is trustworthy and cultivated, he will become his most effective assistant in the future.
So Rosen is very interested.
After making some preparations, he got into the carriage of the Bright Moon and left the Lord's Castle with Anvinia.
In the carriage, he talked about his initial arrangements.
"Although you are my apprentice, you are also a high-level 8-star official mage, so I will give you a 2-ram single-family courtyard as your residence, and I will also send four servants to take care of your daily life."
Anvinia was delighted: "Thank you, mentor. ”
Rosen continued, "Mentors and apprentices have their own obligations. It is my duty to teach you about spells and to ensure that you have the ability to cast spells safely. ”
"But since you're an ordinary apprentice now, I'm just going to teach you some of the basics of spells that I've created, including how to meditate more efficiently, how to better quantify spells, and how to get started with flow numbers and gravity."
Anvinia's eyes lit up: "Thank you again, mentor." ”
At her age, she did not hesitate to put down her face and worship Rosen as a mentor, the main purpose was to learn the flow number and gravitational spells, and this kind of knowledge was unique in the entire golden land.
Rosen continued, "And your obligation is to be my magic assistant and complete some of the tasks I assign on a daily basis. ”
"Of course, I won't assign more tasks than you can handle. Because it's irresponsible to you and a waste of my time. ”
"I remember, Mentor."
"It's also because of your status as a high-level official mage, and you have paid a high tuition fee. A decent daily life also requires financial support, so I will temporarily send you a monthly payment of 100 crowns. ”
"It's 1000 kroner. 100 CZK is the monthly payment for the next month, and 900 CZK is your settling-in allowance.
"Go buy a carriage, and if you need anything in the house, let the servants go to the bazaar and buy it."
He took out a blue-gold paper stub and handed it over.
"The money is taken by yourself to the Crescent Moon Village, the location of the money village is in front of the building, and there is a crescent moon sculpture on the roof, do you see?"
"See." Anvinia carefully put away the stub.
After a while, the carriage turned into an auxiliary street, and on both sides of the auxiliary street was the residential area.
According to the original plan, a single courtyard was neatly arranged, of which 30% were occupied, and the remaining 70% were still empty.
This empty house belongs to the lord of Lawson, and it is the lord's property.
It can be rented out to tenants, it can also be used to reward meritorious men, or it can be used to give your apprentices a temporary stay, as is the case now.
Because these stone houses were built last, the craftsmanship of the construction mages has improved to the boss, so the details of the houses are much more refined than the first phase of the project.
Soon, Rosen stopped in front of a stone house near Main Street.
"House 19 of Crescent Second Street, with water, the interior decoration is basically complete, there are beds, but you have to buy other furniture yourself."
Anvinia looked at the exquisite stone house through the car window, her emerald green eyes flashed with surprise, and she couldn't help asking, "Mentor, will you teach me petrification in the future?"
Rosen nodded: "If you gain my trust and become my personal apprentice, I will naturally teach you petrification." ”
"I'll try."
Lawson didn't get out of the car either, and said to the coachman: "Go to the college construction site in the north of the city." ”
"Yes, my lord."
The Bright Moon carriage galloped all the way, and soon passed through the city gate and town gate, and drove along the wide and flat petrified road to the Northern Reservoir.
"What is being built is the Crescent Branch of La Falella College, of which I am currently the Executive Vice President."
"As my apprentice, your job for the next month is to follow Master Ladia as her assistant and assist her in completing the work of building the academy."
It's not a difficult job, the main purpose is to observe Anvinia's personality and abilities, and if she has outstanding abilities and can be trusted, then reuse them.
Anvinia has lived for 48 years, and her experience and experience are very rich, so she can naturally feel Rosen's potential meaning, and immediately said: "Mentor, I will never let you down. ”
Rosen waved his hand: "I believe that actions are far louder than words, verbal promises are less, and actual actions are more done." ”
"Yes, Mentor, I remember."
The location of the college is not far, only three miles from the main town area, and the horse-drawn carriage soon arrives at the construction site in full swing.
Not far from the construction site is the sparkling Yuexi Reservoir.
It is entirely conceivable that when the college is completed, it will be a good place with pleasant scenery.
There are both construction mages and many young and strong lords on the construction site.
It's farm time, and they're all here to earn wages.
More than one gram a day, never in arrears, delivered when the time comes, very crisp, has established an excellent reputation.
When the Bright Moon carriage with the Lord's Night Crescent Moon Banner arrived, the head of the construction site, Master Ledya, greeted him.
She wears a thick leather-rimmed hat similar to that of a rider and warm leather armor.
"Baron, how come you have time to inspect today?"
Lawson jumped out of the carriage and pointed to Anvinia, who was following the carriage: "I brought you a very powerful assistant." ”
Ladia looked at Annvinia, not understanding for a moment: "It doesn't look outstanding, right?" ”
Lawson gestured to Annvinia, "Take out your official mage badge and open Miss Lydia's eyes." ”
Then Lydia saw the emerald green 8-star official mage insignia, and her mouth immediately opened into an O-shape.
Rosen began to introduce the two sides.
"This is my new apprentice, the high-level mage Anvinia from White Sand City in the east, she should be able to help you greatly speed up the progress of building the academy."
Lydia looked devastated: "Baron, your helper has dealt a huge mental blow to me. I feel like I'm probably not fit to learn spells anymore. ”
Anvinia on the side immediately comforted her softly.
"Miss Lydia, I'm a half-elf, 48 years old, and this mana realm is not outstanding."
Rosen's heart was moved when he heard this, and he found that Anvinia's voice was very sweet, and if he didn't look at her face and listen to the voice, she would definitely think that she was a beautiful woman.
He felt more and more strange in his heart, and couldn't help but take a closer look at his apprentice's side face.
But after looking at it for a long time, I didn't see any trace of the illusion of the spell.
And he believed that there should be no illusion in this world that could escape such close observation by himself, unless it was a transcendent illusion.
Although there are some doubts, it is normal to think about it.
It's not surprising, many voice actors in their previous lives were also mediocre in appearance. ”
On the other side, Lydia was comforted, and her mood suddenly improved: "Hmm~ I'm alive again." ”
Lawson raised his hand again and patted Lydia on the shoulder: "This is Lady Radia's mage, a mid-level and high-grade mana, proficient in flow numbers, and a top five petrochemical building master in the highlands. ”
After the next month, she will also arrange specific work for you. As for questions about work, you can just ask her. ”
Lydia's face turned red.
"Although I do have a lot of experience in the field of petrochemical construction, it is far from being a master. Also, I'm still learning the flow of numbers, and there are still a lot of deficiencies, so I'm far from proficient. ”
Although he goes to Rosen's master class every week, and there are an additional five hours of overtime class, the flow number has been developed by Rosen, the master of flow number, to the point of extreme difficulty and even some perversion.
The difficulty is amazing, but the usefulness is also amazing, forcing people to learn.
She felt that the more she learned, the more questions she had, and even a feeling of regression, in short, she didn't dare to be proficient in two words.
Anvinia immediately said, "Since the master said that you are proficient, then you must have a level of skill that other mages can't match." ”
Lydia thought for a moment and nodded, "That's just as well." For example, Howl, he is far inferior to me. ”
Seeing that the two sides recognized each other's familiar faces, Rosen greeted Anvinia: "Send you home first, and arrange your accommodation." ”
Without thinking about it, Anvinia shook her head.
"No, mentor, I don't have high requirements for accommodation, just have a bed to sleep in, and I will take the time to arrange it."
"So, just let me stay here and help."
Rosen was very happy, after all, everyone likes an apprentice with a living eye.
"Then you can stay here. Lady, she's new here, so I'll take care of you more. ”
"No problem."
Lydia responded easily, and looked at Rosen again: "By the way, why don't you just accept me as an apprentice?" ”
Rosen smiled: "Is there a difference between you and my apprentice now?" Or am I not paying enough attention to teaching you how to count? ”
"But I also want to learn your other skills, such as petrification, such as your high-level logic spell that can block the Silver Moon Sword God head-on?"
Hearing this, Anvinia on the side snorted.
"Do high-level logic spells really exist?"
Lydia smiled proudly.
"Your knowledge of spells in the East is outdated, and the current logic system has been advanced to a high level by the Baron."
Anvinia's eyes brightened, and she looked at Rosen with reverence, and she had the feeling of stars in her eyes.
She praised loudly.
"Mentor, you are so great!"
A 48-year-old half-elf who has gone through the vicissitudes of the world, but made such a little girl worship a star and made such a loud fart.
In addition to feeling strange in Lawson's heart, he also felt a little unbearable, and coughed lightly.
"Miss Lydia, you don't need to apprentice, when you understand the flow math, I will teach you petrification."
"That's what you said, don't go back."
"No repentance."
Rosen waved his hand: "I have something to do, so I'll leave first." ”
Get in the carriage and fly back to the castle of the lords.
The academy has been on the road, and knowledge can be expected.
But knowledge alone is not enough, it is also necessary to transform knowledge into power!
The greatest strength of the lord is the army.
According to the army building plan that I thought of last night, find Harrick first.
"Uncle, I plan to form a full-fledged Crescent Legion. You should first issue a recruitment order, recruit 1,000 people, be physically strong and decent. ”
"Preferably Highland natives. If you are a foreigner, you must be innocent, your personality must be dignified, and you don't want hooligans and scoundrels. ”
"In terms of monthly gold, ordinary fighters start from 3 crowns. The ten-man captain is 7 crowns, and he asks for a low-ranking samurai. 100 sergeant majors 15 crowns, requiring mid-rank samurai. ”
"The commander of the legion is 50 crowns, and he asks for a high-ranking samurai. The deputy commander of the army is 40 crowns for 2 and also requires a high-ranking samurai. ”
He first followed the tradition to spread out the stall quickly and steadily, and then slowly improved according to the actual situation.
Harrick took a quick note with his pen, his face full of sadness.
"It's not a lot of money, or are you planning to sell Starfall Gold?"
"It's not cost-effective to sell something like Starfall Hengjin."
Lawson leaned into his ear and said, "The princess of the Eastern Realm just gave the new payment in the morning, which is 500 gold coins. ”
After speaking, he took a step back and looked at the stunned Harrick: "Uncle, is it enough now?" ”
Harrick nodded repeatedly: "Enough, enough!" ”
The last time it was 100,000, this time it was 500,000, which made him feel that Lawson was being taken care of by the princess of the East.
"Lord, the princess won't take a fancy to you, will she?"
Rosen spread his hands: "What the hell knows? But it's not a bad thing, is it? ”
"It's really not bad."
"Then since I have enough money, I'll let go of recruitment."
After giving Harrick's instructions, Rosen hurried to the castle's backyard and found Thrandis chatting with Sophia in the backyard garden.
The two weren't chatting, they were discussing spells.
As soon as she saw Rosen arrive, Sophia said, "Rosen, Anna is such a genius logic mage, in front of her, I feel ten years older." ”
At this time, Thrandis was Anna, and she smiled shyly: "The master exalts me too much, I am far worse than Rosen." ”
Sophia smiled: "Rosen is not a genius, he is a natural grandmaster, haha." ”
Rosen spread his hands and sighed with emotion: "The real master is humble, but we juniors are pretending to be masters." ”
As soon as these words came out, all three of them laughed.
After laughing, Thrandis asked, "Something?" ”
Lawson nodded and said what he thought.
"I had an idea last night, and I came up with a new type of magic weapon for ordinary people."
"If you use it well, it may be able to greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the army."
He plans to build a new army, and the core of the new army is new weapons.
At this time, the two women were interested, especially Sophia, who had been a lord, and she was extremely concerned.
She immediately said, "Come and listen." ”
