The team of the Zelgaon family continued to move forward at a considerable speed.

Inside the large carriage, Tom handed a clean towel to Dean——

"My lord, it's better to leave these matters to Haim. The strength of Haim and the other nine people is enough to send those robbers away..."

Seeing Dean wiping his tea-soaked palms with a towel, Tom couldn't help but said.

"But it will delay saving people, won't it?"

Dean replied with a smile, and at the same time, returned the towel to Tom.

In the previous attack, Dean condensed a pot of tea with the frozen air, and then popped out the tiny ice slag one by one with his fingers.

Whether it is or not, it is impossible to directly achieve long-range attacks.

In Dean's view, this is also the only shortcoming of the two secret arts.

However, Dean doesn't think that such shortcomings will reduce the value of the two secret arts. After all, any secret arts and secrets have emphasis.

As a person who practices secret arts, what is needed is to select and combine these secret methods and secret transmissions with their own emphasis, so as to achieve the most suitable level for themselves.

"Is it because of that boy's reminder?"

Tom was taken aback.

"That's a kind young man!"

Dean replied with a smile.

Facing such an answer, Tom didn't speak any more.

Because, this is a fact.

People who can still give reminders in such an environment have to be said to be kind.

Do good people get rewarded?

Tom subconsciously glanced at the loyalist of his soul. The corners of his mouth turned upward, and after putting the towel away, he picked up the book that belonged to him in front of him again.

And at the side, Mi Weier was holding Ke Er.

But from the beginning to the end, he never took his eyes off the book, and didn't care about the outside things at all.

For this young girl, the books in front of her are the most important, and it is an unparalleled enjoyment to be able to read a book with Ke Er in her arms.

In fact, among Dean's companions, Tom, Michelle, Kerr, and Tiger, who could only sit outside the carriage because of his size, were excluded. In addition to those that Dean had already decided on, there was also an escort team of ten people outside. It consists of one big knight and nine knights; and this was stuffed in abruptly by the elder Lunk.

‘Master, you are the patriarch of the Zelgang family, how can you not have personal guards around you? '

Saying such words, Elder Lunk almost cried bitterly. Dean had to agree.

Because Dean was worried that if he refused again, the old man would draw his sword and kill himself.

Dean couldn't sternly refuse this old man who put his whole heart on his family.

After all, the other party is a selfless person.

However, regarding this matter, after seeing the guard team consisting of a hundred people, Dean still maintained his persistence-the elder Lunk obviously pulled out the elite of the Zelgon family.

In the end, Dean used the reason that 'the Zelgon family's foundation in the south also needs to be protected'. The two sides agreed for two hours before reducing the guard team to the current ten.

Naturally, these ten people were carefully selected by Elder Lunk.

Except for the leader, Heim is a great knight who has already reached the level. Except for the middle-aged men who are approaching the silver level, the remaining nine are also young people who are above knights and close to the level of great knights.

It is no exaggeration to say that these are the backbone of the Zelgon family in the future.

In Dean's view, it is only a matter of time before Haim becomes a silver class, and these young people. It is also only a matter of time before becoming a great knight.

There is a tilt of the entire family's resources. Coupled with extraordinary talent, all this has become a matter of course.

Looking at these guards, Dean subconsciously thought of the young people he had chosen.

"More resources are needed to cultivate - not just secret techniques, secret transmission, but also medicine, and corresponding guidance..."

Dean thought silently.

Then, he glanced at his skill bar——

(Percentage return power, will refer to own attack power)

(Note 1: The special option is constitution 04)

(Note 2: The upper limit of this skill has been reached)

After the body-forging secret technique was recognized by the system, the skill limit of the fusion secret technique that Dean has always attached great importance to has been raised again.

From lv4 to lv7, the diamond body directly gave Dean a solidity of 15 again, and the judgment advantage of special effects also increased by 15.

Although the physique has only increased by 02 because it is close to the limit, other changes are what Dean can't wait for at the moment - when facing more and more powerful opponents, it will be difficult for the original level to perform as it should role.

Even with the excellent defense he brings.

And the changes brought about by the level up now, plus Dean's increased physical attributes and talents at the moment.

Full 1902 solidity!

With this value, Dean can easily face any opponent who is not at the gold level.

Unless the opponent has a special weapon, magic, attribute attack, or long-distance attack, Dean only needs to stand in place and rely on the real damage of the rebound to make the attacker unable to eat.

And it will cost Dean 3600xp value from lv4→lv7.

For Dean, whose xp value reached 3700 after killing the 'Shadow Arrow', it was naturally a lot of consumption, and it could even be said to be exhausted.

After all, no matter the secret technique being studied. Whether it's a secret transmission or a mere 100xp value can't be done.

Therefore, Dean's shot before also had the meaning of supplementing the xp value.

but. The result was somewhat surprising to Dean——

Glancing at the xp value obtained, Dean frowned.

It's not too little, on the contrary, it's a little too much.

Then Dean carefully pulled the information bar of the system. When he found that there were five messages, Dean frowned more and more.

"Among a group of bandits with just over a hundred people, there are five knights!"

Dean sneered inwardly.

A person with the strength of a knight. It's not like you won't be a robber.

Like someone who made a big mistake and was wanted. Under forced and helpless, in order to survive, they will all become robbers.

For example: In the dense snowy forest in the north of Emerald, there are bandits in a similar situation.

but. It was in the snowfield dense forest, far away from the Emerald, on the edge of the harsh climate.

And here is the junction of the emerald capital and the three southern counties.

Although it is a vacuum in a certain sense, this vacuum is only for ordinary bandits. If it is a bandit team composed of five knight-level people, neither the Emerald City nor the three southern counties will sit idly by. , will definitely send troops to encircle and suppress.

"Midsummer's Eve is still two months away, can't you resist the wind and rain?"

Dean narrowed his eyes, guessing the origin of this gang of robbers.

naturally. The three southern counties were the first to be excluded.

With the character of Grand Duke Jade, he would never do such a thing, and among the three county kings under his command. The Countess of Detta is far away in Nangang County, and she can't reach here; the knights under Earl Merry, because they acted at the same time, are still fresh in Dean's memory, and they were not among the previous robbers.

And the nearest Countess Kaqiu?

Chi Yanlan has a fiery temper and a disposition of jealousy. Dean really understood that it was also impossible for the other party to do such a thing.

And after excluding the three southern counties. Naturally, only the royal family of the emerald capital, the nobles in the north, or... some dark forces remained.

"Even if you are jealous of your sister and feel dissatisfied, you will not do such a self-destructive thing, and the nobles in the north?"

Excluding the young king, Dean frowned subconsciously.

He thought of the second son of the Duke of York.

If anyone is most likely to do this, the second son of the Marquis is undoubtedly the biggest suspect.

Based on Dean's understanding of the other party, the second son of the Marquis can definitely do such a thing for his own self-interest.

The opponent in memory, but in order to bring down his brother, he 'sold' the entire Yorkshire to Xiti!

"Deron York..."

Dean chanted the name, and subconsciously picked up a piece of parchment from the side.

This is the news from Bugle Town, which was recorded by a special person.

Among them, the general meaning is: several new medicines launched by Ike are very popular, but they are targeted by some nobles and want to 'poach' Ike away. After a severe lesson, he restrained himself temporarily; however, according to Lauder's private investigation, these nobles are just some pawns, and the real behind-the-scenes person should be the second son of the Marquis of York.

The one who delivered the message was, of course, Leni.

The person who relayed the news narrated in the tone of a bystander.

Therefore, it seems a bit nondescript, but it will not prevent Dean from understanding the meaning.

And it was precisely because of this incident that Dean left Nangang County early, and the Emerald Duke did not stop him in the slightest.

Every family has a so-called root.

Some are secret techniques, secret transmission, and some are special knowledge.

Medicines are the latter.

Any outsider who seeks to seize these things is undoubtedly the enemy of life and death.

Facing the life-and-death enemy that suddenly appeared in the Zelgon family, Grand Duke Emerald naturally would not let Dean go with her for delaying time; however, some warnings were unavoidable.

After all, the Marquis of York is one of the two gold powerhouses of Emerald.

"Your Highness, you are always so kind!"

Thinking of Grand Duke Emerald's advice, Dean couldn't help but chuckled.

However, the next moment when his eyes looked at the parchment in his hand, his gaze became extremely cold.
