Chapter 38 Transformation and Inheritance
(The last chapter of the three volumes, the next volume goes to the battlefield, thank you for your support!)
The neatly planned farm in the Dark Night Manor, the lush crops and groups of healthy and strong livestock, did not attract Chris' attention at all, but when the wizard saw the three statues standing in front of the villa being built, he rushed forward with disbelief.
Fortunately, this person was not hostile and did not launch an attack, so he did not cause the reaction of the Tree of Life. The combat puppets and gargoyles were also guarding the spot without activate the attack mode.
"This..., Master Donald, do you have alchemy devices in your three statues?"
When Donald heard the bronze mage's voice deformed inquiry, he did not expect that the other party would see the difference between his three puppets at a glance. You should know that the puppets created through the Book of Truth are very perfect. If you sit there motionlessly, it will basically be like a real statue dead object, and ordinary people will not pay much attention to it.
However, since he had discovered this secret, he had to tell the truth. He thought that with the other party's identity as the peak of bronze, he would not have the idea of making a puppet.
"Yes, these three are my alchemy puppets. They are placed here to protect the safety of the manor when I leave!"
Obviously, Donald's estimate made some mistakes, underestimating the attractiveness of this alchemy puppet to a senior mage.
After hearing this, Chris's shock could no longer be described in words.
"Alchemy puppet...an ancient alchemy creation that has been lost for thousands of years!"
"No, I must ask this little mage to let me study these puppets!"
After thinking about it, the bronze wizard turned his head and his face was stiff, but his eyes were burning and said to Donald:
"I want these three puppets. I want to use them for research. You can offer a price!"
Compared with the profound attainments of Mr. Donald Messel in alchemy enchantment, Chris, a bronze peak mage, has a favorite in addition to spell cultivation, which is the study of ancient relics left over from ancient times. This ancient alchemy puppet is exactly what he tastes.
Donald was a little amused and said in embarrassment:
"Master Chris, these puppets are the most important defensive force in my manor. You also know their value. If you use it for research, it will definitely not be repaired for a period of time..."
Donald was interrupted by the Poker Face Mage before he finished speaking.
"Your manor is safe, don't worry at all! I will call Morgan and the two of you to live here to study the alchemy puppet together. Until you come back, there will be no harm to the manor and the people inside! Now, tell me your conditions!"
Donald was surprised when he didn't care about Master Chris's stiff tone. The Morgan in Chris's mouth was one of the other two bronze peak mages in the club. They were all people who were only one step away from being promoted to the silver level, and they were a hot figure in the North County mage world.
With these three masters in charge of the manor, there must be no traitors who are not open to their eyes to touch their bad temper. If there are really enemies who are ignorant of life and death to make trouble, then the outcome depends on his luck!
Donald believed that even if the enemy sent the silver rank, facing the anger of three bronze peak mages, he probably wouldn't be able to get anything out.
"Since you said that, Master, then you can use these three alchemy puppets to study them casually and give some elemental crystals as compensation! Please ask Master for the safety of the manor!"
After saying that, Donald lifted the three alchemy puppets to cooperate with all their actions.
As soon as Chris obtained temporary command of three puppets, in addition to sending his mage magic pet, a red-mouthed falcon to send a message to the other two mages, he immediately became immersed in his research on them, and even Donald, the master, didn't care about it.
He was already prepared and added a strong defensive force to the manor. Now he has three more bronze peak mages to protect the manor, ensuring the safety of the manor, which makes Donald feel more at ease. He can leave with confidence now.
Before we were about to rush to the battlefield, a small episode happened.
"Sir, please bring us with you! We want to follow you to the battlefield together!"
After hearing the news of the call, William's two sons followed their master to the battlefield regardless of their parents' opinions. As knight attendants, this is indeed their basic responsibility.
Having said that, although they all have great strength close to the middle-level warriors of the Black Iron, the one who is worse than the newly recruited manor guards is only combat experience. However, both little guys are just children, and the oldest is only fifteen years old, Donald has to consider the meaning of their parents.
Donald did not immediately reject the request of the two little guys and sent someone to invite their parents.
When William and his wife came to see Donald, they immediately guessed what was going on when they saw their two sons were there.
"Sir, the two children are ignorant, please don't blame them!"
Donald shook his head and smiled:
"William, your sons are brave. They want to follow me on the battlefield, but considering that they are too young, I'll ask you for your couple's opinions."
I originally thought that the couple would definitely not agree to their son and let the two little guys follow him to the battlefield. Unexpectedly, William said:
"As the attendants of the adults, they should follow the adults to fight the enemy and make achievements. Eli is still too young, and going out can only cause trouble for the adults. However, Elic will hold the coming-of-age ceremony for more than two years, which is no worse than that of the adults. Let him go out to see it with the adults, and there is someone to serve him!"
Even William's wife Isabella couldn't bear to see her son leave, but she agreed with her husband's decision.
Seeing this, Donald could only respond: "Okay! Elick and Clinton come with me, George and Bush, you stay to protect the safety of the manor. Cod and William, you two, try to minimize going out after I leave, just manage the construction of the manor and farm affairs, and don't worry about anything else! I'm ready for Moonlight Wine's share next month, and a mage will come to pick it up at that time!"
Although Donald is the heir of the hereditary nobles, he has lost the name and power to recruit private soldiers since his fiefdom was taken away. Even if he participates in the battle, he can only participate alone. At most, he is allowed to bring two knight attendants because of the title of the knight family. If he brings multiple subordinates, he will easily be convicted of illegally raising force and making illegal intentions. Maybe he will be in prison before he even goes to the battlefield.
Of course, it is also possible to choose to hire a warrior, but the cost is too high, and you may betray the employer in the end because of your military achievements. Traditional followers of mages can fight together, but the candidates must be cautious. Once they are determined, they must be responsible to the end. Until now, Donald has not discovered a follower who is worthy of his talent and potential.
Road alone is Donald's best choice at present, not to mention that with the summoning army in hand, it is worth carrying a thousand-man legion with him. So he doesn't need any private soldiers or attendants at all.
However, since William hopes that his son will be trained, he can bring Eric with him. The young saplings will not grow into towering trees without storms. Donald, who has great hope for his two young servants, will naturally not give this opportunity.
Having decided to bring Eric with him, Donald simply brought Clinton to facilitate the handling of trivial matters on the road, leaving only two left-behind mentors, George and Bush, who were left to command the newly recruited manor guards.
