Arcane Universe

The so-called gentleman collar is actually the Knight collar.

When the descendants of the territory Knights cannot become Knights, they will lose their titles and become civilians. However, such civilians are very different from real civilians. They have land, money, and nobility. There is a certain degree of in-law relationship, and, as the offspring of Knight, their next generation will go to the Knight School and receive the most orthodox training. The chance of becoming Knight is much greater than others.

In the successor of a gentleman, once someone successfully advances to Knight, because there is a ready-made Fiefdom, according to the noble law, he will immediately be conferred as Knight again.

Over time, this kind of Knight family has formed a class, that is, the gentleman class. Even if the gentleman loses the knighthood of Knight, it will be recognized and accepted by other knights, and is considered to be in and the others.

……

After entering the forest, Feng Chou took out a horse from the Universe Pagoda.

He rode a horse through the forest for more than ten kilometers, suddenly he opened his eyes, and a river appeared in his sight.

There is a castle beside the river, and thousands of acres of land are cultivated on both sides of the river.

This is a simple castle not much stronger than Leo father’s castle.

The castle is located on the southern bank of this fairly wide river. Large tracts of farmland are cultivated along both banks of the river. Depending on the scale of the farmland, this territory barely meets the standards of a jazz collar.

To Feng Chou’s surprise, there are no irrigation facilities in this farmland, nor can you see the waterwheels that are common in other territories on both sides of the river, but the growth of the crops in the field is quite the same. Not bad.

Feng Chou rode a horse through the farmland and came to the north gate of the castle. The guard on the city wall poked out his head and asked: “Who you are? What are you doing with Vito?”

Judging from his expression, he is not very nervous, even a little interested.

In fact, the castle Lord of this World wants to defend against wild animals. For areas like Antalia County that are not bordered by other countries, wars between human nobles seldom occur, because in the human domain There are large tracts of wasteland outside, and instead of attacking other nobles, it is better to open up the wilderness.

Feng Chou said: “I am a mercenary commissioned by Gentleman Claire. Is Gentleman Claire in that direction?” Feng Chou pointed to Northwest, which is the direction upstream of the river.

I heard that he was going to lead Claire, the soldier suddenly lost his energy, said “yes,” and then retracted.

Feng Chou slightly smiled, bypassing the castle, and proceeding upstream along the river.

He walked a short distance upstream along the road along the river bank, and then left the agricultural area of ​​Vito Ning. On the clearings on both sides of the road, puddles and clumps of reed-like water began to appear. plant.

This phenomenon undoubtedly shows that there is abundant groundwater here.

This reminds Feng Chou of a lake that should not be far from here.

Feng Chou once saw a map of Antalia County in the library of the Master School. It was a map drawn by a wizard who mastered flying skills. It was very accurate and detailed.

So Feng Chou knew that there was a lake about 20 kilometers away from the Northwest of Vito.

The lake of hundreds of square kilometers was formed by several rivers from the northern mountainous area poured into a low-lying land.

Earl Antalia built a dam on the south side of the lake to consolidate the scattered water on the south bank of the lake into a river, turning hundreds of thousands of acres of swamp wetland downstream into fertile land.

The abundant groundwater here should come from that lake.

Feng Chou walked a short distance upstream along the road, and saw a piece of territory. This is a Knight’s collar with only more than 2,000 acres of farmland.

On the upper reaches of this river, there are three Knight collars, and the Claire collar is the closest one to the upper reaches.

The condition of the farmland around the Knight collar is the same as that of the Vitor collar. There are no irrigation facilities, but the crops are growing well.

The speculation in Feng Chou’s mind is basically certain.

The crops here are on the rise. It should be moistened by the groundwater spreading from the lake in the northwest.

Just don’t know why, no one is doing large-scale development here.

Such thoughts flashed in Feng Chou’s mind. This is not his concern now.

He raised his eyes and looked at the castle not far away by the river. It can’t be called. It is a castle. A dirt wall surrounds a village with only about 20 households. It is on the edge of the wall. It is even less than fifty meters long. In the middle of the village is a small round stone fort, which is much shabby than the one in Leo’s house.

Feng Chou rode a horse to Tuweizi.

On the Tuweizi, a few militiamen wearing crude armor and holding axes and guns shrank and looked at Feng Chou riding a tall horse with bright armor.

This World has rolled armor, and in some shabby blacksmith shops, you can also see rolled armor for sale. Compared with plate armor and chain armor, most of this World’s armored workmanship is very rough. The nails are also very thick.

Only the caravan’s coachman, man, and the country’s militia will use armor.

It’s not because armor rolling is not good. It’s said that before Arcane Empire, armor rolling occupies half of the armor in this World. However, during the Arcane Empire, a genius young mage invented a genius spell, which directly led to the elimination of the rolling armour.

This spell is called “Dissolve Armor”. It is only a zero-level spell, but it can cut all the leather cords on the armor and dissolve the armor into a pile of iron pieces. Later, an improved version of Level 1 spell “Armor disintegration” and even riveted chain mail can be disbanded.

It is also the spell of “Armor Disintegration” that gave birth to the production of welding magic in the “Alchemy” department.

Today’s chain armor connection has eliminated the ancient riveting technology, using magic items with welding magic, such as “magic welding tongs” and other alchemical items to connect, not only against armor Disintegrating this spell has also greatly increased the defensive power, but the cost has also been raised quite high.

The reason why those low-level caravan buddies and militias still wear this armor is probably because they are not even worthy of their opponents using spells on them, even if it is a zero-level spell.

In the end, the militiamen did not have the courage to question Feng Chou, who was riding a tall horse and wearing shiny armor, and Feng Chou did not bother to pay attention to them.

Professionals above Fifth Level will never appear in this kind of soil.

After passing through two Knight collars in succession, Feng Chou finally arrived at Claire collar.

This is a territory that is even more shabby than the first two Knight territories.

Feng Chou came to the gate of Tuweizi tied with round wooden tenon and explained his intention to the few divine wood-eyed militiamen inside.

Several militiamen looked at each other, and one of them ran to the small stone fort in the center of Tuweizi.

Soon after, two middle age persons in old gowns and cocked hats walked over with a sturdy man in old plate armor that didn’t fit well.

After issuing a document issued by the mercenary union and signed by Gentleman Claire, a strong man in old plate armor ordered the militiamen to open the wooden door and put Feng Chou in.
