Chapter 281 Both Advance

Speaking of which, none of Clown's subordinates seemed to have experienced a major war, and neither did he. The only war experience he had was fighting two battles with cultists in Zak Town.

He also fought two battles in Lorente Town, but he didn't fight directly, and used long-range attacks.

Leah said, "Sir, we don't need armor. The physical fitness of the spirit masters is worse than that of the knights, so we can just use leather armor."

"Yes," Lorin agreed, and the two of them still owed a sum of money for potions.

"Okay, don't be reluctant to spend money on equipment."

Clown felt that the spirit master was a bit like the mage in the game, and couldn't be equipped with heavy armor.

He looked at Del and asked, "How is the operation of the blacksmith shop now?"

Del is now in charge of the blacksmith shop. When he is not there, he only needs to report the income to the housekeeper every month.

Del immediately straightened his back and said, "Sir, there are many orders now. Ordinary weapons are forged by low-level blacksmiths. We senior blacksmiths are only responsible for forging extraordinary equipment.

With a lot of practice, the skills of the three of us have improved, but the speed of forging is still far behind yours, and sometimes we even waste a few. The net profit of the blacksmith shop last month was 470 gold spirit coins."

His tone was very steady, but he could not hide his joy. He could not imagine that he would handle so much money like now.

Crown smiled with relief: "Not bad. I hope you have not relaxed and improved your strength after work."

"Of course not, I will remember your words. Besides, I want to see the day when Janice becomes a high-level extraordinary."

Speaking of his daughter, Del's eyes were full of pride. This was the old father's ardent expectation for his daughter.

Seeing that the other party was not blinded by money, Clown was even more relieved: "How much is the reserve of refined iron in the blacksmith shop?"

The fastest speed of the Fire Seed Cube to devour metal essence is refined iron ingots. Before he went to the Holy See, he asked to keep a batch in the warehouse.

"The warehouse is already half full, I estimate it is about 50,000 pounds."

Del replied. He was concerned about the things the bishop told him to do and supervised every day.

If the orders in the blacksmith shop were not too close and there were not many people available, the warehouse should be filled.

"I am assured of your work," Clown said with appreciation. He paused and turned his head:

"Liya, Luo Lin, how are you two doing? Has the spirit been purified?"

The two spirit masters stood up and bowed deeply: "We will always remember your kindness."

The spirit has completely become their helper, which is a blessing of rebirth for every spirit master.

"Get up, the stronger you are, the better for me. Now that there is no worry, I hope you can improve the level of your spirit control as soon as possible.

Lorraine, I am very curious, what combat methods do you have for your spirit control now?"

Crown remembered that when Lorin was still a first-level spirit control master, the spirit control could only provide auxiliary functions. This ability is very useful for criminal investigation and solving cases, but it will be much less useful for war.

The spiritual collision on the battlefield is particularly fierce, and the emotions are too chaotic, so the opponent cannot collect too much useful information.

If she has no combat methods, it is best to stay behind when the war breaks out to help deal with things in Hamers City.

Lorin's face suddenly turned slightly red, and she said a little embarrassedly:

"Sir, after I advanced to the second level, the ability I gained is a kind of mental spell that can control the emotions of the enemy, making them furious or fearful, or soothe the emotions of my companions, making them fearless and peaceful."

This is also an auxiliary ability, without any offensiveness, and she felt very useless.

Lorin looked at the bishop's face with some uneasiness, and found that the other party did not show disappointment, but was a little happy.

‘This is a very powerful auxiliary spell. If used well, it can have unexpected effects.’

Crown’s thoughts turned rapidly and he asked kindly:

“How far is the casting distance and how big is the casting radius?”

During the war, this spell can provide soldiers with a better state. Facing a strong enemy, being timid or not is a completely different matter.

"The casting distance is thirty meters, and the release radius is about three meters. However, it only has a significant effect on the second-level and lower supernatural beings, and can last for five minutes.

The effect is very poor for higher-level supernatural beings. I once did an experiment on Bishop Nick, and I could only provoke some of his emotions. The duration was very short, about thirty seconds."

"Are your spells blocked by obstacles? For example, can they be effective across the wall? Have you ever done an experiment?"

Lorraine sat up straight. She realized that the bishop really valued this skill:

"These have been tested. Walls, ordinary steel, and even ordinary magic circles cannot block my spells."

"Very good, this spell is very useful, and it will become more and more useful as time goes by.

In the future, I will provide you with an interest-free loan of one hundred gold spirit coins every month. You should practice spells and strive to advance as soon as possible."

"Ah?!"

Lorraine exclaimed in a low voice, thinking: 'From this point of view, when can I pay off my debts? Bishop, can I not? ’

Crown didn’t know what the spirit master was thinking, nor did he care. Only when the other party reached a higher level could the value of this spell be demonstrated.

Imagine that the spirit master waved his hand, and a large number of brave warriors rushed towards the enemy with full combat power, which was equivalent to adding an extra buff. This was a great thing for the commander of the troops.

He now has a private armed force of more than a hundred people. After being tempered in the war, they will become an elite force in the future.

Liya smiled and said, "Luo Lin, thank the bishop quickly. With this gold spirit coin, you can quickly improve your spirit control ability. Wouldn't your ability also increase with the tide?"

She actually envied the opportunities of her old teammates. As for the debt, when she became more capable, there would be more ways to make money. These were not a problem. She wished that she was the one who received such a favor.

Luo Lin retracted her depressed expression, realizing that she had actually taken a big advantage, and said respectfully: "Thank you, Bishop, for your support."

"Improving my abilities as soon as possible is the best reward for me," Clown nodded with a smile, and continued:

"Melissa, my knight unit commander, do you have any good news?"

Finally asking me, Melissa sat up straight:

"Sir, the first batch of guards is fifty people, and currently forty-two people have advanced to the extraordinary level.

The second batch of guards is one hundred people, and the training will be completed before next spring.

These guards have the excellent melee ability of the knights, and their shooting skills are also quite good after training."

She smelled the breath of war very early, so she trained the guards very hard, and she also trained hard.

War is a journey through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, so she can't help but pay attention to it.

Clown nodded approvingly and smiled:

"After this war, I hope that the guards in my hands will become an elite force like the Crusaders.

Melissa, I hope that when facing the enemy, you can lead them to charge forward fearlessly without fear of life and death."

This is his expectation. He is ready to increase the training efforts. These people are not cannon fodder.

"Yes, sir, I will definitely not let you down."

Melissa's eyes were firm and her voice was sonorous. Although she was still a woman, her momentum was not inferior to that of men.

"This is the spirit we want," Clown smiled and said slowly:

"Everyone, I have advanced to the silver level, and the war is just a stepping stone for us."

His voice was not loud, but it was like throwing a boulder into the calm water, and a word caused a thousand waves.

"Doesn't this mean that your strength has reached the level of His Holiness the Pope?!"

Del's eyes were wide open, and he felt that everything was so unreal.

Liya and Luo Lin looked at each other and congratulated loudly: "Congratulations, Your Excellency! May the Lord of Fire illuminate your way forward."

They are not devout believers, but their voices are full of piety at this moment.

The stronger the bishop is, the more secure their future will be. In this increasingly dangerous world, it is certainly a kind of luck and honor to be able to rely on the top strong.

Melissa had already guessed it, and now she heard the bishop say it himself, she couldn't help but be happy.

William didn't know the meaning of the silver rank, but he was shocked when he heard Del's words:

"Your Excellency, I will prepare a banquet tomorrow. Such a big event must be celebrated."

'Using my money to treat people to a meal, why does it sound so awkward? 'Crown shook his head secretly and said:

"You go and arrange it. There is no need to invite many people. I don't like too lively environments."

. . . .

After the meeting, Clown returned to the bedroom. He was ready to think carefully about how to improve himself in the coming days.

Jin Guang Zhu was brushing up his proficiency in the alienated land as planned. The soul control technique was only more than 2,000 points away from advancement. If he could break through, both the time hourglass and the fire cube would benefit.

At least the time hourglass could provide longer bullet time, and the fire cube would devour metal essence a few points faster, and it could also store more metal on its body. He was one step closer to the goal of turning the metal clone into a Transformer.

This winter, he could strengthen the two pets. If he could get a third-level pet, it would be helpful to him.

In addition, he needed to decide which pet to contract.

His goal was a ferocious large pet that could also serve as a mount. He thought the giant bear was a good choice.

There was a white bear in the Farouk Kingdom called the Northern Giant Bear. It was a circle larger than a normal brown bear. It was more than two meters long when lying on the ground and four meters long when standing upright.

If he made a set of extraordinary quality armor for the giant bear, wouldn't it be a bulldozer running rampant on the battlefield?

Combined with his own silver-level strength, it must be a "small harvester".

The only difficulty is that this kind of giant bear is rare, mostly in the Andes Mountains.

There is no point in being anxious about contracting a new pet. What he can do now is to make more high explosives. This technology requires superb alchemy. If low-level alchemists can also make it, it will be much easier to face the attacks of cultists.

Thinking of this, Clown began to think about how to deal with large-yield bombs filled with high explosives.

The evil god can bewitch people's minds. If someone's consciousness is bewitched and throws a bomb at you, how can you defend yourself?

This must be prepared in advance. I don't know if it will be successful to rub a giant metal door on the spot to block the explosion.

His life level has reached the silver level, and his body is very tough from the inside out. The shock wave overpressure generated by the explosion should not cause much damage.

After thinking for a while, he didn't come up with a better plan. He planned to find an opportunity to do an experiment to see how to deal with it more comfortably.

With the seventh sense, he can deal with danger more calmly. Clown is not particularly worried about such accidents, but it is still good to be prepared for everything.

He stopped thinking about it, gathered his thoughts until his heart was calm, and then began to visualize the Golden Light Mantra.

Although the proficiency of the Golden Light Mantra can be quickly improved in the alienated land, it cannot produce the Sun Essence and Moon Essence, so the visualization time must be guaranteed every day.

Fortunately, the materials obtained from visualization are much more than at the beginning, so there is no need to worry about insufficient materials.

. . . .

The white wind whistled past like a bone scraper.

The snow kept falling, occasionally stopping for a day or half a day, and then continued to fall. The snow in the wild could reach the thigh of an adult.

Soon, a week passed.

In the warehouse of the blacksmith shop, Crown picked up a piece of fine iron ingot in each hand. It only took more than ten seconds for the white iron ingot to turn into a pile of rotten black residue.

Continuously using the ability of the Fire Seed Cube, the proficiency of the spirit control technique slowly and steadily improved, and it has reached the edge of advancement.

In the past few days, he forged two second-level extraordinary armors and ten first-level armors every day. These tasks only took him five or six hours. He spent the rest of the time on visualizing the golden light spell and swallowing the metal essence.

With great power, he only needed a dozen hammers to complete a part of the forging work, which was completely due to the power of force.

Clown quickly grabbed the fine iron ingot and mechanically used the spirit control ability to swallow the metal essence. He felt a little numb after maintaining this action for a long time.

Suddenly, he felt a sudden light in his mind, and the silver light woke him up from the numb state.

A strong sense of joy rose from the bottom of his heart, and all the pores on his body opened up, and he felt an indescribable comfort.

He immediately summoned the golden wall.

[Spirit Controlling Technique: 3/30000; Level 4] (Enhances the ability to control spirits by 40% and reduces the consumption of spirit control power by 20%, and speeds up the generation of spirit control power by 50%.

Passive ability: Each spirit control can help you share 10% of the spiritual pollution and negative mental spell status, and can reduce the impact by up to 20%.)

Compared with the third-level spirit control technique, there are no new passive abilities, but the original abilities are improved.

Now the spirit control ability is enhanced by 40%, which was originally 20%; the reduction of spirit control power consumption has not changed; the speed of spirit control power generation has increased from 30% to 50%, which can save a lot of gold spirit coins if a long-term high-intensity battle is carried out.

Now the spirit control can provide 20% spiritual pollution, and the passive ability has also been improved.

Crown's resistance to various spiritual pollution and negative mental spells is getting higher and higher, which is a good phenomenon, because the pollution of the evil god is very strong, and he is leading the way in overcoming spiritual pollution.

I don't know if he will be immune to mental pollution in the future, and he is looking forward to it.

He recalled the silver light that flashed in his mind, and he had a guess in his mind, and then he immediately sank his consciousness into the sea of ​​consciousness.

The skill level would not cause such a strange phenomenon. If he guessed correctly, then it must be that the spirit control has advanced!

Klauen's consciousness descended into the sea of ​​consciousness space, and he saw that the size of the Fire Seed Cube had increased a lot, and the shape had also changed. The original cube turned into a sphere.

'Is it because it has been beaten by society and the years have smoothed its edges and corners and become smooth? '
