Chapter Seventy-One: The Village
Count Hune was going to arrange a bunch of guards, but Herag thought about it and refused.
The symbolism of these guards is greater than the actual meaning, you don't need them if you can fight them, and it's useless to fight these guards if you can't beat them.
What's more, in the territory of the Banks family, few bandits dare to attack the carriage of the Banks family, and the guards seem to be a little redundant.
In the end, Herag left only the driver who drove the car, and there was a man who knew the way to drive, so that he could worry a little less.
"Mr. Herag......" Joe was about to speak.
As he was about to board the carriage, Herag turned around and smiled, "Your father will live a long time, and there shouldn't be too much trouble." ”
If the dark energy particles on Count Huen's body are not removed, it will indeed be short-lived, and the two brothers will definitely fight for power and profit.
Now that Hunn can live for at least a few decades, then there is no need for these two brothers to fight to the death, just be the sons of nobles honestly.
Josh nodded earnestly, "Mr. Herag walks slowly." ”
The carriage in Herag was clearly prepared by Hunn, and it had a large bed covered with soft satin, so that he could lie down and rest during the journey.
There was also a cabinet on the wall behind the bed with a bottle of red wine.
Grain and other supplies were placed in the back half of the wagon, and a lot of them were piled up, enough for Herag and the coachman to eat.
The coachman's name was Sid, he was nineteen years old, and he seemed to be a very clever young man.
The exterior of the carriage was very richly decorated, especially the coat of arms of the Banksy family, and the passers-by on the street all avoided it for fear of avoiding it.
Herag lay in the carriage and meditated quietly.
The seventh star in his mind was slowly taking shape, and Herag was unhurried to complete his daily meditation practice, and he was not in a hurry.
Until you find an effective way to speed up your meditation, you can't rush it.
Two hours later, Herag slowly opened his eyes.
He rubbed his chin and thought, "It is estimated that it will take another three months to complete the meditation of this star, and if this is calculated, it will take more than a year to reach the promotion requirements of a third-class wizard apprentice." This body is fifteen years old, and I need to be promoted to the official wizard before the age of eighteen......"
Most official wizards are promoted before the age of eighteen, and if they are more than eighteen, the probability of being promoted to a full wizard is very small.
Herag didn't know how it worked for the time being, what he could do was to improve his strength as soon as possible, so that his mental power could reach the target earlier.
"Deep Blue, search for ways to speed up meditation or increase mental power."
"Searching for ......"
"165 ways have been found."
Herag looked at the large list and continued to give instructions: "Screening, no side effects, suitable for me, the method that can be achieved at this stage." ”
"1. Configure potions to assist meditation and speed up meditation."
"2. Configure potions to increase mental power and meet the promotion requirements faster."
Deep Blue offered two methods that were more feasible at this stage, and Herag continued to ask, "Is there a potion recipe to speed up meditation?" ”
"Formulations need to be deduced and studied, and the subject needs to be experimentally verified."
"Then how long does it take to deduce the formula for a potion that speeds up meditation?"
"The mission has been filed, it is expected to take six hours, and it is estimated to consume 19% of the mana."
Herag was a little surprised: "It took so long, he didn't expect it to take six hours for Deep Blue to complete this task." ”
"This task involves a lot of data calculation and deduction, so it will take a long time." Deep Blue explained.
Herag was ready to let Deep Blue complete this task before continuing to deduce the recipe for the potion that increased mental power, but he didn't have much hope.
There are also existing potion recipes that can increase mental power, but that cost is not something that the current Herag can consider.
Potions that could directly increase mental power were very expensive, and Herag didn't think that Deep Blue could make a cheap version.
After three hours, the carriage slowed down.
They had long since left the city and had been driving for a long time in the deserted wilderness.
Sid sat down at the front of the car and said, "My lord, I remember that there is a village ahead, where we can rest tonight." ”
"Hmm." Herag replied softly.
There's no harm in spending the night in a crowded place, and anything can happen in the wilderness.
The carriage came to a slow stop, and Sid lifted the curtain, bowed his head, and said, "My lord, it's here." ”
When Herag got out of the car, he saw a dilapidated village with houses made of mud that looked like the caves where primitive people lived.
Most of the people in the village hid in their houses, poking their heads out of the door or window to observe the two Herags.
There was an old man with gray hair at the head of the village, and when he saw Herag get out of the car, he knelt down tremblingly: "My lord, spare your life, the taxes we owe must be paid as soon as possible, and now we really can't receive the money, so give us a little more time." ”
Herag glanced at him and said, "I'm not here to collect taxes, I'm just passing through, and I'm going to stay here for the night tonight." We apologize for any interruptions. ”
"Isn't it?" The old man raised his head with difficulty and stared at the carriage with difficulty, "but it was obviously ...... on it."
Sid explained, "Lord Herag is a guest of our Banksy family, and he was just passing by you today. ”
As soon as he said this, the old man realized that he seemed to have made a mistake, and the stone in his heart was put down a little.
"You have all the delicious food here, the adults are tired from the journey, clean up your best room and let the adults rest." Sid shouted unceremoniously.
The old man's face was embarrassed, but he didn't dare to disobey, and said in a low voice: "I'll go and prepare." ”
When Herag saw that the village was so poor, he thought to himself what else they could prepare.
He stretched out his hand to stop the old man: "No need, the food we brought with us is enough to eat." I took a look, and you don't think you have any good places to stay, so I'll rest in the carriage at night, and won't bother you too much. ”
"This ......" Sid was surprised, for he was a natural arrangement, but he did not expect that Herag actually planned to sleep in the carriage.
He had already thought that he would pick a good-looking girl from among these civilians and send it to Khrag in the evening.
Herag glared at him, "We're just here for one night, don't make them fussy, I like to be quiet." ”
Sid looked at his slightly threatening eyes, bowed his head, and said, "Understood, my lord." ”
Herag didn't see himself as a savior, and he couldn't help the civilians. This is a problem in this society, and it is not something that he can change alone.
But he wouldn't suck the blood of these hungry civilians when he had enough to eat.
