Chapter 183 Dreams come true (three-in-one)
"Impulse is the devil, Chicken."
Faced with Chicken's proposal to attack Cuihai Valley, Duke could only express his rejection tactfully.
The Green Sea Valley is the target of Bernoulli's arcane earth mage, and the medium-sized spiritual spring is in his bag. The ancient spirits in it have obviously already belonged to him.
"Eat the spiritual crystal, little chicken. When you evolve into a 3rd level elf, maybe Bernoulli can give us a favor and return your grandma back... Anyway, don't worry. If he doesn't give it to you, just wait until I advance to the 4th level. , ask him for it in person!"
"But I'm afraid that my grandma will also be made into a taxidermy." "
This is definitely not the case. The ancient spirit is extremely valuable, and no one would be willing to make it into a taxidermy." "
Are you sure?"
"Very sure. , and affirmation."
"I feel much better, Duke, give me the spiritual crystal quickly, I want to grow up quickly and save grandma!"
Bang, bang, bang, a spiritual crystal was chewed to pieces by the chicken .
After eating one, he ate another one, finishing the New Year meal that Duke had prepared for him in one go.
"Uh..." He burped and swayed in mid-air.
Duke observed the chicken carefully and determined that every time the chicken ate the spiritual crystal, its body changed slightly.
Mainly concentrated on a pair of short legs at the junction of the tail and the head.
It is still disproportionately short, but it has grown a little bit, which is not obvious. If it weren't for Xiaoyi's outstanding image analysis ability, this subtle change would not be noticed at all.
"With this growth rate, I'm afraid it will take several tons of spiritual crystals to grow matching hind legs, right?"
Duke thought in his mind.
"In addition to a pair of hind legs, it also needs a pair of front legs. Tsk tsk, just relying on the spirit crystals, how many tons will it eat?" Yawning, the
chicken bumped into Duke's belly and returned to the sea of air to rest.
It prefers Duke's Qihai to Beverly Manor.
Although the spiritual seed given by the Mysterious Vine has not matured yet, as long as it is next to the spiritual seed, the chick can feel that its body is slowly growing along with the spiritual seed.
Evolution is the instinct of living things, and the same is true for chickens.
"Xiao Yi, report the progress."
"Okay master, there are five processes currently running... Process 1: Exclusive Meditation Method... Process 2: Arcane Shield Wonder... Process 3: Production and Research of One Ring Spirit Storage Card …Process Four: Sand Eagle 1.5 Special Effects Bullet Edition…Process Five: Interactive Program…”
There are still 53 days left to complete the wonders of the Arcane Shield.
The production and development of a one-ring spirit storage card requires cooperation with Duke to personally experiment on the card materials. The rest of the time, the research and development progress is slow.
Therefore, Xiaoyi can still squeeze out part of the power for the development of the Sand Eagle 1.5 special effects bullet version.
"Everything is developing steadily, very good..."
The New Year passed quickly, and the snow had not yet melted. Vivian, Mulali and others rushed back and continued to circle around No. 17 Beverly Manor, surrounding Du Start your own life.
January 7, Storm Calendar 4413.
Penrose Wizard Tower, which has been on vacation for more than a week, has returned to its former glory.
"Good morning, Assistant Leadman."
"Good morning, Oriana, are you having a happy New Year?"
"Good morning to you too, Dras, Mitchell..."
"Good morning, Sanfis ."
Duke greeted him all the way, took the spiritual staircase to his office on the seventeenth floor, drank a cup of coffee and read the newspaper.
Immediately, he set off to the laboratory on the fifth floor to draw spell models of the mage's hand and arcane shield for the research team to use in the team members' spiritual material comparison experiments.
After doing this, he returned to the office again, asked Mulali to apply for a batch of blank spirit cards, and then practiced silently on the blank spirit cards.
Cooperating with Xiaoyi, he repeated the research and development experiments of the 1-ring spirit storage card.
With the cooperation of hands-on experiments, Xiaoyi's "one-ring spirit storage card production and research and development" process is progressing rapidly, making rapid progress.
In the afternoon, Assistant Vikas came over and said, "How are you practicing the spirit cards? Did you encounter a lot of problems in the process?" "I encountered a lot of troubles
. It's hard to make it as easily as you did." "
Haha, I can't. Relaxation, that is what I have achieved after decades of continuous improvement of my skills. You have just started to get in touch with it. If you study hard for two or three years, you should be able to make it successfully... As long as you make one successfully, one method will work for all. , it will be easier later."
Two or three years?
Duke smiled and said nothing.
According to his current experimental progress, in another ten days and a half, Xiaoyi will be able to thoroughly study the production of the 1-ring spirit storage card.
After the assistant Vikas left, Duke continued his boring repetitive exercises.
Failure again and again will be a great torture for ordinary people. It is impossible to predict when they will succeed, and they cannot know whether they have made progress.
But with Xiaoyi's assistance and seeing the progress on the schedule increasing bit by bit, Duke was full of motivation.
To him, every failure is a step toward success.
So he could happily hide in the office and practice making a 1-ring spirit storage card all day long, and he could repeat it every day without hesitation.
"You mean, Duke consumes nearly two to three hundred blank spirit cards every day on average?" Penrose asked his secretary with curiosity in the top office.
Secretary Levski nodded and responded: "Sir, it is indeed true. When the card production department reported to me, they complained quite a bit, thinking that Lord Duke consumed too much of the blank spirit cards, and speculated whether they were secretly carried out of the tower. "
So, he didn't carry it out of the tower, but really hid in the office and practiced on these blank spiritual cards?" "
Yes, sir."
"Where are the discarded blank spiritual cards, give me a few." Penrose suddenly ordered.
Levski has been a secretary for decades, so he was naturally prepared. He took out a few discarded blank spiritual cards from his pocket: "These are some of the consumables that I took out at random from His Excellency Duke." A blank spirit card."
Penrose took it, pulled out a spirit card and put it in his hand.
Psychic energy penetrates it.
He soon hissed: "Are you sure you got it right?"
"No, sir." Levski didn't know why.
Penrose put down the card in his hand and replaced it with another discarded blank spirit card. He quickly raised his eyebrows after detecting his spiritual energy.
Then continue changing until all discarded blank spiritual cards on the table have been checked.
He clicked his tongue and exclaimed: "I asked Vikas to teach him how to make spiritual cards. It has only been a few days, not even half a month."
Levski quickly replied: "You were on December 21 last year. Let me inform Lord Vikas to teach Lord Duke how to make cards.”
"Except for the New Year holidays, he has been practicing for less than half a month..." Penrose was a little unbelievable, but he laughed, "It's interesting, it's interesting, Lewski, inform the card production department, The supply of consumables is open to Duke."
"Yes, sir."
After answering, Lefsky asked curiously: "Sir, what did Duke do to make you feel so happy?"
Penrose leaned back in his chair. On his back, there was a smile: "This genius arcane mage, I wonder if he can become a genius card maker... I never believe in genius characters, but this time, there seems to be something worth looking forward to."
...
Mage Tali's supplies of consumables are unlimited, which makes Duke very satisfied, so he spends other people's money to improve his abilities.
Wonderful, wonderful.
Since consumables are not allowed to be taken out of the Mage Tower, Duke's card-making experiments are all completed in the office and he does other things after get off work.
Today he got off work at the right time, went to the castle under the mage tower, and walked into a cafe.
"Sir, here!" James, who had been waiting here for a long time, waved.
"Don't worry, Boss James." Duke walked into the private room and asked the waiter for a cup of strong coffee. "I'm a little busy at work." "
I just came here for a while and walked around the castle. Please ask Sir With your blessing, this is the first time I have walked into the Mage Tower, and it turns out this is what it looks like inside." James had an eye-opening expression on his face and admired him sincerely.
The Mage Tower is not a forbidden place, but except for relevant service personnel and some spiritual apprentices, few outsiders can enter.
As a 1st-level Great Spirit Planter, James is about the same status as a 1st-level Great Knight.
But in the eyes of arcane mages, they may be no different from civilians.
Without permission, you can't enter any mage tower at all.
"The Mage Tower is just like that. It cannot compare with the Union Tower, Magic Spirit Tower, Element Tower, Erudite Tower, and Observation Tower in the city. You should have been to these five towers, right?" "Indeed, sir, you have forgotten one thing
. , I have only been to the service halls of these towers, and have never been to them at all... In fact, the highest floor I have been to in my life is the seventh floor, the seventh floor of the United Tower. A farming conference was held at that time, and I was honored to attend."
Shen Jiaoshi is not a modern society with many high-rise buildings.
Although there are many towers over 100 meters high in the city, ordinary people rarely have the opportunity to enter. It is like there is an invisible ceiling that restricts ordinary people to the lower floors. Only arcane mages like Duke can freely enter the upper floors. In and out.
"Well, I can take you to visit my office later." Duke said casually.
James stood up excitedly: "Really, sir, thank you so much. I have always wanted to stand on a high floor and take a look at our Shenjiao City!" "Then let's go to my office and talk."
Duke Picking up the coffee cup simply.
James followed step by step and climbed up the spiritual ladder.
When he entered the office on the seventeenth floor, he stood in front of the window and carefully looked at the distant land, realizing his dream, James' hands were trembling.
I don't know if I'm scared or excited.
It took a while to calm down: "It's a joke, sir."
"It's nothing." Duke took a sip of coffee and said, "This time the owl asked you to come here because there is something important to discuss." "
Sir, please tell me." James' posture was correct.
Although he cooperated with Duke and founded Duke James Farm together and became a business partner, it does not mean that he can be on an equal footing with Duke.
Even if Duke just let Levine hold the farm's shares on his behalf.
"Let me show you something first." When Duke said this, he suddenly thought that if the chicken heard it and called it "something", he would be scolded. "Remember to keep it secret after reading this." James nodded hurriedly
: "Don't worry, sir, I have the strictest mouth."
Duke patted his belly. The next moment, the chicken reluctantly emerged from the sea of air, shaking his head and tilting his head at James: "Duke, why are you calling me? , who is this guy? He’s so ugly with his fat head and big ears. It’s so annoying!”
“Don’t tell the truth.” Duke touched the chick’s head.
The big green tadpoles were floating and swimming on the table. They looked so beautiful no matter how beautiful they looked. Their jasper-like bodies exuded the refreshing fragrance of plants.
"Ah...ah..." James' eyes widened at that time.
He is a level 1 Great Spirit Planter, and every Great Spirit Planter will have an illusory dream deep in his heart.
That is to cultivate a 2-ring elf spirit plant and give birth to an elf.
After the contract, he was promoted to Level 2 Elf Envoy.
So when the chicken appeared in front of him, even though he didn't know what the elf looked like. But the rhythm coming from the sea of qi made him suddenly realize that this was the dream coming into reality, and the great spirit plant envoy saw the elf!
pity.
The elf is not his, so he can only look at it twice.
"Ah...this is...my lord, this is..." James was already incoherent.
"This is a chicken, an elf, who has completed the elf contract with me." Regarding James' excitement, Duke was in a good mood and said with a smile, "So, what is in front of you is not only a level 1 arcane mage, but also a A level 2 elf envoy."
"It's incredible, it's incredible!" James swallowed hard his coffee and tried his best to suppress his excitement, "Sir, you... this is really incredible, elf, the legendary one The elf actually appeared in front of me!"
"Damn fat man, stay away from me, or I'll let Duke bite you!" The chicken didn't like the look in James's eyes, which gave it goosebumps.
Duke's face darkened: "Shut up if you can't speak."
Chicken grinned nonchalantly: "You called me out and you asked me to shut up, Duke, you are still not my brother!" "Go
in! "Duke grabbed the chicken and stuffed it directly into his belly.
After stuffing the chicken back into the air sea, he rearranged his clothes and said to James: "As you can see, I am a level 2 elf user... so I am going to let you buy a batch near Penrose Mage Tower. The land was reclaimed as a farm."
The chicken entered the Qi Sea, and James had regained his composure: "What do you mean, sir, is that this farm is centered around the 2-ring elf spiritual plant, and the spiritual plants are cultivated and sold?" "Yes, once you come
, To make money, and secondly to help the chicken evolve."
"I understand."
"So you should do this as soon as possible, remember to cover it up, I don't want too many people to know my identity."
In case other arcane mages find out , if you have to borrow chicks from him for research, it will be very troublesome whether you refuse or agree.
James nodded and responded: "I understand, please rest assured, sir, I will arrange confidentiality measures for the farm, and I will sign confidentiality contracts with my team of spiritual plant envoys one by one, and will never reveal your situation. "
Then you go do it as soon as possible. If you don't have enough money, come to me... Oh, by the way, the chicken's body is the 2-ring Ji Yulu. The farm mainly grows various Yulu related varieties."
"Jade dew?" James immediately thought, "The cultivation of jade dew is mainly done in greenhouses. I plan to open a greenhouse planting area in the center of the farm, dedicated to greenhouses, and grow greenhouse mushrooms in the outer areas for cover. Sir, do you think it's okay?" "In this regard
? You are a professional and do what you think." It is Duke's principle that professionals do professional things.
Although he is a level 2 elf user, it has nothing to do with hard work and all depends on luck when he bumps into a chick.
James was promoted from a 0-ring spirit plant servant to a 1-ring great spirit plant envoy step by step. He has many years of planting and management experience.
In terms of spiritual planting, James is more professional.
James, who got the new task, responded with joy: "Yes, sir!"
Making money was second, and being able to get in touch with Ji Yulu, the second-level elf spirit plant, was the most precious opportunity for him.
Perhaps in the process of taking care of Ji Yulu, he continued to increase his understanding of elves.
Ask Duke for advice.
It will give him the slightest chance to cultivate his own elf, and then be promoted to the second-level elf user that he dreams about.
...
After seeing James off, Duke got into a Tiger car and returned home to Villa No. 17 in Beverly Manor.
"Sir." Butler Morris greeted him at the door, took Duke's coat, and followed Duke into the house. "There is a happy event today. Captain Vivian's contract partner, the black-spotted serval cat, successfully broke through to become 1 Ring Spirit Beast, I'll let the kitchen celebrate a little."
"Well, the black spotted serval cat has made a breakthrough, it's time to celebrate!" Duke said happily.
The promotion of the black-spotted Serval Cat to the first-level spirit beast means that he will soon be able to feed Vivian back and help Vivian break through to the first-level knight.
Entering the villa, I soon saw Vivian feeding the black-spotted serval cat.
Duke said loudly: "Congratulations, Vivian, my 1st ring knight captain." "
Thank you, sir." Vivian stood up, with an embarrassing smile on her face, looking bright and moving, " Mimi did not disappoint me."
In the past, Vivian always gave people a stereotyped impression, she was beautiful but lost her agility.
At this moment, she seemed to be glowing with light, giving Duke a sense of dazzling surprise: "Butler Morris has arranged a celebration dinner for you, and will arrange some fresh dishes for Mimi later." Don’t feed the spirit beast meat with dried meat."
Vivian hurriedly declined: "You don’t have to be so polite, sir, Mimi is used to eating dried meat."
"You are my knight, and I want to celebrate you and Mimi. It should be." Duke couldn't refuse. After admiring Vivian's bright colors, he turned his attention to the black-spotted serval cat.
He knelt down and touched the head of the black-spotted serval cat.
Part the hair on top and look closely at the mark of the knight's contract on the skin.
The mark is an intuitive manifestation of the power of the contract, and the same is true for the knight's contract mark. When the contracted spirit beast evolves to level 1, the mark will form a complete ring.
There is a complete ring on the top of the black-spotted serval cat's head.
"Xiao Yi, write down this ring mark completely." Duke separated the hair bit by bit and searched for the details of the ring.
Xiaoyi was in the spiritual sea, following Duke's gaze, and re-engraved the circular mark bit by bit.
Know the ring, study the ring, understand the ring.
This is something that any arcane mage would do every day.
Assistant Mulali, who had been following Duke, finally found an opportunity to congratulate Vivian: "Sister Vivian, congratulations to you. You are a 1st-level knight. My sister is really outstanding. Sir's safety depends on me." Give me protection for my sister."
Faced with Mulali's compliment, Vivian replied reservedly: "Your Excellency is a noble Arcane Mage. Although I am still weaker than you, if anyone dares to threaten you, Vivian will Andu will stand in front of me and stop me!"
"Sister Vivian, when you protect the Lord, will you also protect me?" Mulali asked sweetly.
Vivian's tone was gentle: "Although I have no such obligation, I will still protect you, Sister Mulali." "
Thank you, Sister Vivian."
"This is all to serve the adults, there is no need to be so polite."
After the two of them finished speaking, they looked at each other and smiled.
Butler Morris came over with a cup of freshly brewed green tea: "Ladies, Cook Virginie has made a few cups of tea. You might as well go over and have a drink to get rid of the cold."
Duke had already recorded the black spots . With the contract mark on Serval's head, he stood up, took the green tea, and said, "You all go to rest. I also want to go upstairs to change clothes." After
changing clothes, he lay down on the rocking chair on the large terrace for a while.
With Dou Qi protecting his body, severe cold weather has no great impact on him, and it doesn't matter if the wind blows in winter or in summer.
"Is this the complete 1-ring contract mark?"
Looking inside the Linghai, looking at the contract structure reproduced by Xiaoyi, Duke carefully considered it and observed the subtle structure of the mark.
There is also a contract mark on Xiao Kabuto's head, but it is incomplete.
There is no contract mark on the chicken, but when the chicken merges with him or hides in the air sea, the contract mark will be transformed into him.
However, the Elf Contract Mark and the Knight Contract Mark are constructed in different ways.
"It's a very interesting ring structure... but the data samples are too small to analyze. When I slowly collect it, I may be able to analyze something." The
mind exited the spiritual sea.
Just in time to see Kabuto running over jumping.
Before Xiao Kabuto could come over, Duke scolded him seriously: "Mimi has been promoted to the first level. What about you, Xiao Kabuto!" "
Jiji..." Xiao Kabuto was stunned.
Duke continued: "The gap between you and Mimi is getting bigger and bigger. If I were you, now you can't eat dried meat at all and you have to train hard until midnight every day! What about you, look at your growing belly. , eats better than Mimi, but is so much weaker in strength, why?"
Xiao Kabuto lowered his head in shame.
"It's sweat. The difference between you and Mimi is sweat!" Duke concluded.
Xiao Dou poured a bowl of poisonous chicken soup on his head and immediately cheered up. He activated the solidifying arcana - sharp burrs on the large terrace on the spot.
Then he jumped off the big terrace and ran left and right in the yard, constantly releasing his energy.
"Know your shame and then be brave. My little Dou is still a good boy." Duke smiled slightly and praised Little Dou's hard work.
Speaking of which, Xiao Kabuto is not yet 3 years old.
The growth period of a spiritual beast is slower than that of an ordinary beast, and it is still a child.
However, Vivian's black-spotted serval cat is only a little over 3 years old and is not an adult black-spotted serval cat. The blood refining method has promoted its growth.
Duke's daily blood training is limited, and his training time with Kabuto is even shorter, which is also a factor that limits Kabuto's growth.
"I don't have time to practice fighting spirit, so I can only ask Kabuto to be more diligent and train by himself." Duke felt a little guilty.
Decided to let Levin give Xiao Dou extra food in the evening.
...
Not long after the black-spotted Serval Cat broke through the first level, about five days later, Vivian successfully broke through to the first level knight, her fighting spirit changed, and her strength increased dramatically.
"Sir, this feeling is like fighting spirit changing from a loose state to a state that can be restrained." On the large terrace at night, Vivian explained to Duke the changes after her breakthrough, focusing on the state of fighting spirit.
"Well, describe it carefully."
"Before the breakthrough, my fighting spirit was like riding a horse, you need to control it, but now my fighting spirit is like writing, you can master it without controlling it... In short, my fighting spirit now is like It's my instinct, it's amazing."
Duke stretched out his hand, Vivian was stunned for a moment, and then held Duke's hand.
As the two shook hands, Duke's fighting spirit had flowed down his palm and entered Vivian's body, stimulating Vivian's fighting spirit.
The two fighting spirits entangled each other, and soon Vivian's fighting spirit defeated Duke's fighting spirit.
"Don't stop, you also try to attack me with fighting spirit." Duke reminded.
Vivian nodded: "I'm sorry, sir."
Then a fighting spirit rushed into Duke's arm. This fighting spirit was like a snake, condensed, agile, and full of vitality.
Even if Duke channeled all his fighting spirit, it would be difficult to drive the snake away.
In the end, it was Xiaoyi's micro-control and the use of fighting spirit armor that successfully strangled the snake and defeated Vivian's fighting spirit.
"My Lord's control of fighting spirit is very exquisite, much better than Vivian's!" Vivian sincerely admired.
She once had such a sparring match with her knight instructor. Once the instructor's fighting spirit rushed into her body, she could not expel it at all and could only admit defeat.
But this time, she didn't give in at all, but was still defeated by Duke.
Under the control of Duke, the weak fighting spirit was as smooth as a knight, using the weak to attack the strong and winning a battle.
"The fighting spirit after the breakthrough is indeed very strong." Duke carefully recalled the feeling just now, "Soft and rough, the soft ones are the palms, the rough ones are the cocoons..." (Three chapters in one, all chapters will be updated in the future
