Full Time Mage Lord

While the banquet was in full swing, Reinhard began to wonder. Could it be as simple as William just talking to him about marrying Catania and then just having a drink?

Just when Reinhard was puzzled, William said, "Good son-in-law, I heard that not only are you superb in martial arts, but you also have to forge the true biography of the blacksmith. Is there such a thing?"

Come on, maybe this is William’s real purpose!

That's right, the current new emperor Cinder alone is not enough to make the old fox accept him. Although he has great influence, what does the Lear family do?

The emperor had just finished talking about the wealthy family that controlled most of the mines in the empire.

What is the most valuable thing in a mineral vein? In the Divine Continent, gold may be precious, but there is something that is a thousand times more expensive than gold!

Soul crystal.

Especially the special soul crystals processed by the forging master.

Currently, the empire does not have the ability to produce mid-level special soul crystals. Thinking of this, Reinhard already understood William's intention of calling him!

"Well, yes. It's just that at the moment I can only make mid-level special soul crystals, and I have been supplying low-level special soul crystals to the special soul crystal shop in front of the Knight Academy for a long time." Reinhardt didn't think much about it. Said, William had known this for a long time, so he did not hide it.

"Okay! In this case, you come with me and take a look."

When William heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. He stopped drinking and took Reinhard to another room in the mansion.

Inside the house, William opened a secret compartment on the wall, took out a staff from inside, and said to Reinhardt, "Come on, take a look, what is the texture of this special soul crystal?"

So Reinhard took the staff and looked at it carefully.

The staff itself has nothing special. It is just made from ten-year-old fire vine branches. It is the most commonly used magic staff for fire-attribute magicians. However, the difference is that there is a fiery red special soul crystal on the top. Look at the flow. The elemental aura of fire attribute is an intermediate-level special soul crystal.

It's just that there are still a lot of impurity elements in it, it should be said that it is not very pure, and the lifespan of soul crystals of this texture is not long.

If it is an intermediate fire attribute soul crystal, then this staff can increase its power by half!

After reading it, Reinhard handed the wand to William and said, "Master Patriarch, the texture of this mid-level fire-attribute soul crystal is not pure enough. In my opinion, it can be regarded as a middle-to-lower manufacturing process."

There was nothing wrong with Reinhard's own words, but that was not the case in William's ears. He immediately said in shock, "What? Can this only be considered a middle-grade or low-grade one? This is the highest quality in the Moonlight Kingdom." It’s the craftsmanship accomplished by a good blacksmith.”

"Oh?! Did Yueyao's best forging master complete it? In this way, I was indeed a little presumptuous just now. However, I will not change my conclusion just now. In this way, you give me the special soul crystal, and I will help Change it."

It turns out that Yueyao Kingdom's forging technology only has this level. If this is really the case, then the empire's southeastern mainland does not have to worry too much. He is responsible for the northern warcraft and ice barbarians. It seems to be the key to the empire.

However, Reinhard didn't know that his mentor was the dwarf Moffett. Who was the dwarf Moffett? He was more than a hundred years old and had spent almost a hundred years researching the manufacturing technology of special soul crystals. Madman, the theoretical knowledge provided by such a person is so terrifying. What he taught Reinhard is naturally another method, so Reinhard just said it casually, because in his heart, this staff Not much.

How would an ordinary forging master know about multiple processes? Each different elemental impurity requires different methods of extraction. After classification, the addition of special materials, different furnace forgings, and the injection of soul power with different attributes...

To put it simply, the proportion of materials, the control of soul power, how much material to add, and how to divide it?

This is the knowledge and experience of centuries-old dwarves!

When William heard this, he was also very interested. He took off the special soul crystal and handed it to Reinhard, hoping to open his eyes. The old dwarf in the Knight Academy, even the old emperor at that time, could not invite him. Now it is Reinhard. Hart's master, oh, I really want William to say that William doesn't like any grand duke. What he wants is the special soul crystal, the monopoly soul crystal. Half of the true power of this empire is in his own hands!

Reinhardt casually took the special soul crystal, concentrated his perception, and at the same time used his soul power to refine the special soul crystal in his hand.

In ten minutes, he performed hundreds of compressions, extractions, shunts, and isolations. Finally, the fiery red special soul crystal in his hand emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the entire back hall.

Reinhard put away his perception and mental power, handed the special soul crystal, which had become extremely pure, into William's hands and said, "Master Patriarch, look at this, this is the real forged Zhongshi." The high-level soul crystal will not waste this precious mid-level special soul crystal mineral raw material. Now this special soul crystal can play half of the role of increasing the magic power."

On the spot, he saw a disciple of a generation of forging masters refining the special soul crystal. It was an extremely rare thing. William excitedly took the special soul crystal and put it on the staff. A burst of fiery red light suddenly lit up. This one in his hand The staff is completely different. What does this mean?

This is equivalent to Reinhardt turning trash into treasure with a wave of his hand!

In other words, it is money, infinite money. Money is the glory of the Lear family, the glory of their family that has stood for five hundred years!

Putting away his staff, William pulled Reinhard with an excited expression and said, "Good son-in-law, now we are prosperous!"

William kindly led Reinhard to a warehouse and said to him, "Son-in-law, look, there are staffs and weapons inlaid with soul crystals everywhere. These are the inventory of our Lear family. , Normally we sell these weapons, the staff just now is relatively high-end, and these are usually inlaid with primary-level special soul crystals."

William stood very close to Reinhardt, with a smile on his face that was almost the same as his previous life, "Good son-in-law, let me ask you something, do you refine these impurities in the primary trait soul crystals every day? How many times can it be done?”

"As for the mid-level special soul crystal just now, it can be refined almost ten times. As for the low-level one, it should be refined hundreds of times..." Reinhardt had already guessed what William wanted him to do. .

"Hehe! Yes, you understand now. Making the original special soul crystal into special soul crystal is difficult to mass-produce with the current mining technology, but with the forging skills, it is much easier to extract it. , look, it’s just like that.” William said with a smile.

"Good son-in-law, don't worry. Since Catania will be yours sooner or later, it is all his family!" William stretched out his hand and shook Reinhardt's hand tightly. "Reinhardt, I know Xin Maybe you know better than you who De is, so I will support you no matter what the situation is. Do you know? Why am I willing to let Catania marry you and be loyal to Cinder?"

Humph, you are not doing it for profit!

Reinhard couldn't help but think so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it with his mouth.

Seeing that Reinhard remained silent, William continued, "You must think that I am a profit-seeking businessman. Indeed, as the leader of the clan, I am like this, and I must be like this. The Lear clan emerged from the War of the Elves, and now, it is... We have followed the empire to a crossroads, Reinhardt, as a father, I sincerely hope that Catania can be happy..."

Reinhard was easily affected by the atmosphere, and was a little excited when William said something sincere and emotional.

"Sir, don't worry, even if Reinhard is killed, no one will harm Catania!"

…

After coming out of the Lear family's mansion, Reinhard went straight to the Knight Academy. It was dark at this time, and there were few pedestrians on the street. Especially on the road to the Knight Academy, there was almost no one in sight, and every house was closed. Turn off the door and take a break.

Reinhard felt something was wrong.

A gust of wind blew by, and the trees on both sides of the road swayed their branches and dropped leaves all over the ground. Reinhardt stopped in his tracks, quickly pulled out the Dragon Killing Blade, held it in his hand, and observed vigilantly. All around.

Uh-huh!

The sound of a sharp weapon cutting through the air suddenly sounded from behind him. Reinhardt immediately ran forward, and at the same time, his body suddenly dwarfed forward, and he was able to avoid this sudden attack.

"Huh!"

The visitor seemed a little surprised that Reinhard had avoided the blow in time, but in less than a breath, the sound of a sharp weapon cutting through the air sounded again.

"Hmph! Are you annoyed? I attacked once, am I stupid enough to let you attack me again?"

Reinhardt did not rush forward this time. On the contrary, he moved his body and quickly rolled back. The two sound judgments allowed Reinhardt to already determine the location of the sneak attacker.

This change caused the visitor to be stunned for a moment, but Reinhard had already appeared in front of him.

boom!

The Dragon Killing Blade was shaken loudly.

Reinhard and the visitor seemed to be evenly matched, and they retreated. Only then did Reinhard see the visitor clearly.

I saw a man with half his face covered, wearing a black mask and black night clothes, holding a long sword. He was also staring at Reinhard at this moment, maintaining a defensive posture vigilantly.

"My assassin? Who sent you?"

Reinhard thought to himself, could the Bibo family come to trouble him so soon?

As for the sect, they would not send such a person yet, and from the previous confrontation, it was not clear that he was a member of the sect.

The man in black ignored Reinhardt, but his momentum began to rise. After a while, his whole body was finally ignited with a blazing purple soul energy.

A sneak attack can't kill Reinhardt, so I plan to be tough.

This was the first time Reinhard saw the purple soul power, and he was a little surprised. It seemed that he had heard of this purple attribute before, but he couldn't remember it now.

Since the other party made it clear that he would not let him go, he had no choice but to gather his soul power. Under the moonlight, Reinhardt's strength was comparable to that of a paladin.

For the first time, he felt the dragon-killing blade in his hand tremble greatly. Reinhardt was also very excited. He finally felt the strength of Odin from thousands of years ago again, although this strength was only available at night, and It is still far from the complete form of Dragon Rider.

The man in black obviously did not expect that Reinhardt's strength was much higher than the information she received, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

The man in black was not at the level of a paladin. He was surrounded by the powerful aura field exuded by Reinhardt, and the purple soul energy glow immediately dimmed a lot.

Seeing the rare opportunity, Reinhard slashed at the man in black with his big sword just like when he was strong against the Bibo family, and the dragon-shaped soul light roared out.

The man in black was startled by Reinhardt's attack and quickly released a stream of flower-like soul power toward the blue dragon shield.

Poof!

As if being splashed on the ground by a basin of water, the huge blue dragon's glow paused for a moment. Seizing the opportunity, the man in black quickly dodged away and headed towards Reinhard without retreating. Attack comes.

Seeing the reaction of the man in black, Reinhard knew that his opponent was not weak.

If he retreats, his evolved Sky-Breaking Dragon Slash will still continue to haunt him, but if he moves forward now, his purpose is to kill himself first, then the threat of the soul skill will naturally be eliminated.

Reinhardt chose to continue the soul attack. Combat experience told Reinhardt that if he lost this attack opportunity at this time, the man in black would probably have another move.

boom!

The man in black was knocked away by Reinhardt's powerful soul power.

"Ugh," the man in black groaned, already injured.

The body that was hit flew several times in the air, and finally balanced the body. The moment the body fell, the tip of its toes hit the ground, a purple light flashed directly, and the body disappeared into the night.

When Reinhard saw this, he knew that he could no longer catch up, because his body was slightly scratched by the blue light move of the man in black. Now that his fighting spirit had subsided, his body suddenly felt a sense of numbness.

After two seconds, Reinhard finally recovered from his paralysis.

At the same time, he was shocked because he already knew who sent this man in black.

The Yao Zhihui family...

Why?

Reinhard thought about it and realized that he had no connection at all with the Yaozhihui family...

Since he couldn't figure it out, he ignored it for the time being. Reinhard put away the dragon-killing blade and accelerated his pace back, because no one knew if someone would cause trouble for him later.

If there were another paladin master, it was hard to tell whether he would be killed.

It seems that I have to find a day to have a good talk with Bahamut. This guy will be here as soon as he sleeps. Otherwise, he can carry out the third stage of training and become a real dragon rider as soon as possible.

Under the cover of night, the man in black hid in a corner not far away. Seeing Reinhardt walking away, he finally couldn't help it, and with a "pop" sound, a mouthful of blood spurted out.

"I told you not to be reckless, but you didn't listen. Now, he must know that it was our clan who did it." In the darkness, another man dressed in black appeared next to the man who had just assassinated Reinhardt. , said with an obviously dissatisfied tone, "Huh, if you don't speak, you must be dissatisfied. Even if you go to test him, you have to find out his strength first. Now that you have been beaten, you know how to hide here. Are you a coward?"

"Humph!" The man in black just snorted coldly, put away his sword, and still ignored him.

"I know that you have never listened to me, and you have never recognized me as the leader of the clan, but as a father, you must listen to me."

The person who came turned out to be the clan leader of Yao Zhihui. Seeing that the man in black still ignored him, he said helplessly.

These words made the man in black seem even more angry, and he simply walked away. Seeing this, the leader of the Yao Zhihui clan had no choice but to shake his head helplessly, followed closely, and left the dark corner...

…

Reinhard returned to the dormitory safely. When he opened the door, he smelled a strong smell of alcohol and was shocked when he saw it.

It turned out that Gude, Martial, Catanya, and Languli had started a small stove in their dormitory. The floor was staggered with wine bottles, and the four of them were lying drunk on the floor. superior.

Reinhard picked one up and looked at it. It turned out to be that kind of low-grade spirit. This kind of wine is very easy to get drunk. I'm afraid they will be drunk tonight.

I don’t know why they suddenly drank, and drank too much. Is there anything special to be happy about? That is, Catania was snatched back, but didn’t she dislike Languri? This would be good, They all drank together.

Reinhard shook his head helplessly. He was assassinated tonight. It would be better for them to make a mess and clean it up for themselves.

He hurriedly took out the trash, tidied up the room, and carried Gude and Martial back to their dormitory. When Reinhard came back, he saw Languli sitting on the bed with a smile, looking at him. He still looked drunk just now.

"Reinhardt, you are back."

Languri's sweet voice made Reinhardt's originally not very good mood gradually relax.

"Well, what are you doing at night? Drinking so much low-quality wine is very harmful to your health." Reinhardt walked up to Languli and reached out to gently tidy up her slightly messy hair.

Reinhardt's move provoked Languli. She actually grabbed Reinhardt's hand tightly, covered it in front of her chest, and said with a blush on her face, "Reinhardt, you now know how to care about others." . As for the reason for drinking, it wasn’t this bad lady’s bad idea. She said that as a soldier, you should drink the strongest wine. The two idiots Goode and Martial also followed suit, and the result... you also saw it. .”

Reinhardt was not surprised at all about Catania's performance, "Well, she was educated by her father since she was a child, so she became like this. By the way, I have something to ask you. Do you remember that a thousand years ago, Has the Yaozhihui family ever appeared on this continent, or does it have any grudge against Odin?"

"The Yao Zhihui family? I never heard of it thousands of years ago. Today is the first time I heard about it from you. You know, I have been unable to leave the lake center island for thousands of years. I don't know much about the outside world. You Is there anything other than asking this?"

"Just now, people from the Yao Zhihui family caused trouble for me!"

Seeing that Languli didn't know anything, Reinhard told her everything that happened that night.

After hearing this, Languli pondered for a while and said to Reinhardt, "In this way, Yao Zhihui is just testing your strength. The purpose is not clear at the moment. There are various possibilities. Maybe it has something to do with the internal struggle within the empire. "Relationship, didn't you just come out of Catanya's house at night? This must be an important clue. You might as well wait until Catanya wakes up before asking her, or maybe..."

"Or maybe what?" Reinhard saw Languli stop mid-sentence and didn't know what the reason was.

Seeing Reinhard's puzzled expression, Languli covered her mouth with a smile, put her arms around Reinhard's neck, and said shyly, "Or maybe you wake her up now, and the three of us can discuss it together in bed! Anyway, she Aren’t they all yours sooner or later?”

ha! ?

Just now he was talking about business, but now he was thinking about those messy things. Reinhard reluctantly stretched out his finger and scratched Languli's nose, and said with a smile, "Come on, I will carry her to the bed and sleep with you. I'll sleep on the floor..."

Before going to bed, Reinhard thought of Jessica and should pick her up and follow him to the north.

Well, there is also Meilin. It would be best to bring Meilin with you...

…

The next day, Reinhard went to the dean early to ask about Jessica, but was kicked out by the dean on the grounds that Jessica was at an important juncture in her training and could not see him.

Since Jessica can't go north with him, it's hard to take Mei Lin and Catanya with him, otherwise, Reinhardt will always feel a little guilty.

Having known Jessica since childhood, Reinhard would be lying to himself if he said he had no further thoughts about this little girl.

Reinhard went to the palace to meet the emperor and was officially granted the title. There were a lot of flattering officials busy. When Reinhard walked out of the palace, there were already many carriages carrying various gifts given to him by the officials and the royal family. He also put on the standard armor of the Imperial Eternal Knights.

"Reinhardt! You are really shameless. You went to the north without even telling us."

"That is, have you forgotten the many difficulties we have experienced together?"

"Is it possible that you dislike our lack of fighting power? Humph, you really have become a noble and you have forgotten your roots!"

Reinhard looked in the direction of the sound, and it turned out to be Romina, Ankarina, and Tiramina. When they saw Reinhard, they all said together.

There was also Languli, who, along with Gude and Martial, were waiting at the gate of the imperial city early.

"Why are you here?" Reinhard asked curiously.

"Boss, we received personal notification from the dean this morning, allowing us to graduate early. Of course, there are conditions, which are the merits of the empire. So, hey, aren't you all going north with you?" Long Meina said.

"Hehe, so we all decided to follow you from now on!" Tiramina puffed out her chest and smiled majestically at Reinhardt.

"Reinhardt, let's come together." Goode and Martial said together.

After all, they all fought together, and the important thing is that Goode and Martial were unwilling to just watch their boss have a woman.

Seeing everyone's persistence, Reinhard was also quite moved. This trip to the north was not to visit the mountains and rivers, but to resist foreign aggression.

War is dangerous.

"Knights are not afraid of any danger!" Ankarina saw Xiu Yin's last concern.

"Okay! Brothers and sisters, let's go!"

Since the empire is currently not very stable, the various functional departments within the empire have limited cooperation and cannot spare any extra military entourage. Fortunately, those who followed Reinhard north were his brothers and sisters, otherwise Reinhard would have been in trouble. I will go north alone, one person and one horse...
