Chapter 8: Bandit

"I think we can agree to Golden City's request, but the remuneration aspect needs to be reconsidered!"

"The power of the Blood Hand Gang continues to expand, and it may also be troublesome for Kaiyuan City in the future. Before the winter comes, it's okay to clean up the wild dogs in the wilderness." Paris had a cunning look and sneered." However, since Golden City took the initiative to make a request this time, I believe that those timid businessmen are definitely willing to pay a sufficient price!"

Enzo thought about it in his heart, pondering for a moment.

"How many cavalry should be sent to eliminate the blood hand gang?" Enzo raised his head and asked Pariste.

"To deal with the stray dogs, only 500 cavalry and a knight leader are enough!" Pariste said with confidence and a relaxed tone. "Although the power of the Blood Hand Gang has expanded by a thousand people, it has not been trained. The rabble of people in the world will be shattered in just one charge."

Enzo couldn't deny it and nodded slightly.

As Pariste said, although there are a large number of gangs gathered in the wilderness in a short time, due to lack of equipment and no high-ranking knights, they are simply vulnerable to a blow under the iron hoof of the cavalry.

"In this case, then agree to Golden City's request."

"Assemble 300 cavalry from Kaiyuan City, and then transfer 100 cavalry from Wildfire Town and Lighthouse Town, with Wildfire Knight Clarence as the commander, ready to crusade against the Bloodhand Gang!" Enzo made a decision and ordered. .

Both Wildfire Town and Lighthouse Town are small towns within the sphere of influence of Kaiyuan City. Each is guarded by a knight and about 600 soldiers.

Crusade against the Bloodhand Gang requires 500 cavalry. If they are all recruited from Kaiyuan City, it will inevitably weaken the defense forces in the city. According to his own ideas, Enzo decided to draw 100 people from each of the two towns to gather the army in the most cautious way.

"As you wish, master." Pariste bowed slightly, then turned and left.

Now that he decided to crusade against the Bloodhand Gang, Pariste re-discussed the remuneration issue with Golden City under Enzo's instruction.

After a battle of words, the Golden City merchants expressed their willingness to pay enough food for Kai Yuan to survive the winter, and on the original basis, additional 5000 gold coins as a reward, Enzo readily agreed, and then ordered Pariste to assemble an army.

The 300 soldiers in Kaiyuan City quickly got ready to go, and soldiers recruited from Wildfire Town and Lighthouse Town also arrived in the next few days.

As a veteran knight, Clarence of Wildfire Town has a trustworthy combat power and sufficient loyalty to Kaiyuan City. Under Enzo's appointment, he served as the commander of the crusade mission and led the army towards the wilderness the next day. , Launched a crusade against the Blood Hand Gang!

In an instant, twenty days passed.

Late at night, inside the castle.

The fire light in the fireplace beating slowly, dispelling the cold of the night.

Quietly in the room, Enzo sat cross-legged on the bed, his eyes closed, as if he was asleep, and the light spots visible to the naked eye all around his body beat like an elf, slowly rotating, and gradually submerged into his body.

Enzo rolled his eyelids, then opened his eyes.

"Chip, how long did I meditate this time?" Enzo asked in his heart as soon as he opened his eyes.

"The duration of this meditation: 4 hours and 21 minutes."

"Very well, this meditation lasted another 12 minutes." Enzo's lips raised and he was satisfied. "The longer the meditation state can last, the stronger my mental power and the various physical qualities. Will improve with it!"

The army against the Bloodhand Gang has been out for 20 days.

During this period of time, the surroundings of Kaiyuan City were calm and there was no major incident. Enzo simply handed over the daily management work to Pariste, while hiding in the room, studying the inheritance of the wizard in the iron box as much as possible.

After half a month, Enzo had a preliminary understanding of the wizarding civilization and thoroughly mastered the idea of ​​"Ancienty Memory".

In the process of continuous cultivation, Enzo can clearly feel that his mental power is getting stronger and stronger, and at the same time, the body begins to gradually produce'magic power'. Only when the accumulation of this'magic power' reaches a certain level, Enzo can learn the simplest zero Ring witchcraft.

According to the records in the "Basic Introduction to Wizard Apprenticeship", before becoming an official wizard, a person with magic power is called a wizard apprentice.

The apprenticeship of the wizard is divided into first-level apprentice, second-level apprentice, and third-level apprentice.

An increase in level means a strong spiritual power. Only when the magic power in the body is enough to release the zero-ring witchcraft can it be considered as entering the category of first-level apprentices, and people without the talent of wizards cannot become first-level apprentices in their lifetime.

Enzo didn't know what his talent was, but every time he meditated, he could feel the growth of magic in his body.

"The release of witchcraft lies in the arrangement of runes. The more magical power in the body, the more runes can be constructed." Enzo's eyes flickered, thinking in his heart, "My current magic power is enough to construct 5 runes at the same time, but If you want to learn Zero Ring Witchcraft, you need at least 7 runes!"

"With my current mental power, I can enter the meditation state for more than 4 hours a day, and every hour of meditation, the magic power that grows in the body is about one-tenth of the rune required."

"At this rate, in about 5 days, I will have the magic value to build 7 runes."

"At that time, you can officially learn Zero Ring Witchcraft!"

Enzo's expression was complicated, and he slowly let out a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but stare at the mahogany square table not far away. On it, three purple crystals were quietly placed, which were dull, but with a magical texture.

Through "Introduction to the Basics of Wizard Apprenticeship", Enzo already knows the origin and purpose of the purple crystal.

It is a fantasy object called a "witchcraft model".

When a wizard apprentice wants to learn witchcraft, the easiest way is to use the "witchcraft model". As long as the magic is injected into it, the witchcraft model will arrange the witchcraft runes sealed inside, in the most intuitive way The status is presented until the user fully grasps it.

And these three witchcraft models, the witchcraft sealed are: shadow stealth, shadow spear, death awakening.

Although these three types of witchcraft belong to the zero-ring witchcraft of the shadow system, the difficulty of practicing is quite different. Among them, the simplest shadow stealth requires 7 rune changes to be released, while the Shadow Spear requires 12 Runes will work.

As for the most difficult death awakening, you need to master 23 runes, and you need other special conditions to release!

"Haste is not fast, let's take it slowly." With his gaze taken back from the three witchcraft models, Enzo rubbed his forehead, and suddenly felt a little hungry in his belly, and couldn't help but smile slightly. "After meditation in the middle of the night, I felt something Hungry, but luckily it's almost dawn, just in time for breakfast."
