Chapter 2 The Second Son of the Baron
The golden wheat waves are wave after wave, the cool autumn wind blows the people's spirits, and the Barony of Rondo has ushered in another harvest.
It stands to reason that as the second son of Lord Baron, Mu En should really be happy about the harvest, but the second young master who came back from a trip from the countryside was not energetic at all, even if last night's meditation had some signs of breaking through the first-level magician, it could not change Mu En's bad mood.
This qiē really sucks!
Since his father Rondo came back with a sigh of relief in the war with the northern barbarians half a year ago, seeing that it would not last long, the eldest Murdoch took advantage of his father's serious injury to control most of the rights of the Palatine family and the barony, and Muen's life has become more and more difficult day by day.
Isn't it just that her mother is the cousin of Viscount Guanxi, maybe there are many dirty deals in private, Mu En cursed Murdoch through gritted teeth.
He never wanted to take the title, so he hoped that when his father died, he would leave him a family property and support him to continue learning magic from Odom, the magician of the realm.
But the sinister and stingy Murdoch has long been tired of his father's favor for him, and as soon as he takes power, he will do everything possible to rectify himself.
First of all, under the pretext that it would cost a lot of money to heal his father's injuries, the monthly income of the baron's son was reduced to a quarter.
When my father was healthy, he practiced magic and never distracted himself, and Murdoch found himself in three days and arranged a lot of thankless errands for himself, or the kind that was not paid, and if you asked him for it, he would say to you with a stiff face: "Brother, do you need money to do things for your family......?"
When Mu En thought of this, he couldn't help but want to beat him to pieces with his apprentice's staff, maybe Murdoch just wanted to provoke him, so he had an excuse to clean him up!
In order to avoid Murdoch's troubles, Mu En left Aoki Town under the pretext of going to the countryside a week ago, and finally felt a little easier, but only a week later, Murdoch sent someone to find Mu En and let him go back to Aoki Town.
With Murdoch's temperament, Mu En knew him too well, and he didn't know what more vicious plans were waiting for him for a week, Mu En didn't agree, but he didn't want to find an excuse for him to rectify himself, so Mu En decided to go back after weighing it.
Mu En was very annoyed in his heart, when will this day end, he originally wanted to be obedient, and when his father leaves, he can share a little bit of the family property, but Murdoch, the bastard, clearly wants to force himself away, what should he do?
Can he still let Murdoch give him a star and a half? This possibility has become a luxury, and Mu En has gradually lost hope, maybe he will not be able to get a penny from Murdoch by then.
Immediately Mu En denied this idea, regardless of the fact that Murdoch was the heir to the barony that had already been determined to the Grand Duke, and when Rondo died, he had the final say on the entire barony, and in terms of background, behind Murdoch stood the more powerful Viscount Guanxi, whose mother was just a businessman's daughter who didn't know the details, not to mention that she had already disappeared when she was three years old.
Thinking that as soon as his father died, he might immediately change from a noble young master to a worthless pauper, Mu En was full of fear for the future.
The only thing he could rely on at the twelve-year-old was his mentor Odom, a barony's seat mage, a fourth-level mage.
In terms of mage level, the first level is a magic apprentice, who can work in a magic workshop to earn a relatively considerable income, and the second level is a trainee mage, who can already privately make some of the most common magic supplies for sale, such as magic lamps and lanterns for civilian homes, install magic anti-theft doors and windows for people, etc., but generally speaking, trainee mages will strive to become a junior mage of the third level, because the junior mage of the third level can choose to join the magic legion of the army, join the research team of some small magic workshops, and even become the assistant of some higher-level mages, which is obviously a more superior condition, and the fourth level is a more embarrassing career level, Level 4 junior mages generally choose to go out on adventures, looking for opportunities, and strive to break through level 5, because level 5 senior mages enjoy noble status in Tyrande 6 and have more power and freedom, which is a respect for the strong.
Odom and Baron Rondo are more of a combination of interests, Baron Rondo relies on Odom to provide magical power for his territory and himself, and Odom relies on the Baron to gather the resources he needs to advance to the high-level, especially if Odom, who is already thirty-three years old, can reach level five before the age of thirty-five, he will have a better future.
In short, Odom may not be able to provide much help to Muen, which is something that Muen, who is only 1o years old, cannot know.
In the barony's study, Murdoch looked at his half-brother Mun with a cold face, and with hidden contempt like looking at a humble bug, he raised the three reports in his hand and handed them to him, and then said: "This group of damned adventurers is a group of filthy rats, and this is the third time in two months! As a father's son, you must come forward to solve this matter!"
Mu En sneered in his heart, it's such a trick again, just let me do these bullshit things so that I can give up on my own initiative, what a damn bastard.
Received three reports, which showed that a copper pit in Baron Londo on the Black Dragon Mountain had been attacked three times in two months by passing adventurers, and that this group of daring adventurers had killed all the slaves and guards who were mining, looted many copper mines, and caused considerable losses to the territory. According to the investigator's analysis, the situation at the scene of the three successive scenes is almost the same, it should be done by the same group of people, it may be a conspiracy against Baron Ridge, and I hope that the lord can send someone to investigate deeply.
Mu En pursed his lips, this is really good news, it won't be his own anyway, just let these adventurers make trouble, I heard that there have been more adventurers in the entire Baron Ridge recently, let these guys make a lot of trouble, and it's best to destroy the guys in front of you.
But he said: "This group of lawless bandits, we must catch them and kill them." ”
Murdoch watched his brother's poor performance, and secretly said in his heart: What a stupid child, you still want to fight with me, die, you won't get anything.
After a few minutes or so, Murdoch stopped, began to write a document in his hand, and said to Muen: "This matter must be done by you, the father only has our two sons, and it is our mission to guard our wealth." I'll give you a spot on ten city guards, and you can take them to find these bandits. ”
Oolong Mountain is located in the north of Aoki Town, on the edge of the Baron's Ridge range, and crossing this mountain is someone else's territory, and Mu En now hopes that these daring adventurers have fled to the territory next door, so that Murdoch will have a headache, and it is better to let his viscount uncle Wei.
Leading ten heavily armed city guards straight to Oolong Mountain, Mu En must not be worried about the safety along the way, the city guards of Aoki Town are very powerful, this is the power to deter past adventurers, otherwise Baron Ridge would have been made by restless adventurers, Mu En even hoped that the soldiers of Aoki Town would be worse, so that Murdoch would be good-looking.
But this is impossible, since his mentor Odom joined the barony, with the support of Baron Rondo, the territory vigorously developed its magical powers, and invested in Odom to set up a small magic studio.
Let's talk about the equipment of the ten city guards led by Muen, which can be regarded as armed to the teeth: the one-handed short sword with fire damage makes the person who is cut doubly painful and quickly loses its combat effectiveness, the green wolf skin armor that solidifies the petrified skin, protective arrows and deflected force field is the "functional battle armor" that Odom Studio has vigorously researched, allowing anyone equipped with it to ignore most attacks below level 3, and the helmet of solidifying reconnaissance spells makes it impossible for any creature that sneaks within 2 meters of the soldier to hide.
If you encounter a mage or a magic archer, ten Flame Hand scrolls, five strong acid arrow scrolls, two Flame Curtain scrolls, and one Fireball Scroll, what kind of mages can be killed with an instant saturation attack, Mu En also wants to know.
I heard that Viscount Guanxi had three magic chariots, and it was a nightmare in the hearts of all professionals, and this is the power of magic.
He would rather give up his status as a nobleman than lose hope of advancing in magic, Mu En thought proudly.
