Chapter 375 Construction School
Soon, the airship began to slow down, and a giant cylindrical tower nearly 100 meters high appeared in front of it. Obviously, this was the airship berthing point.
Around the berthing point, there were several small black dots flying up and down. They were the griffin knights who maintained order.
Compared with the number of griffin knights in Munster, there were much more in the imperial capital Tamriel. From time to time
, a team of griffin knights flew across the sky. Ryan could see with his naked eyes that the huge imperial capital Tamriel actually had four such airship berthing points, located in the four directions of southeast, northwest, and northeast, all of which were tall towers.
At the same time, seven or eight long piers extended in different directions on the towers for various airships to berth.
When Ryan and Anna slowly walked down the airship with the flow of people, he soon saw the short man Matteo who had been waiting for a long time at the exit.
Standing next to him was an old man dressed in a tuxedo and a butler.
"Lord Ryan, Miss Anna, I'm glad to see you. Everything has been arranged." Matteo stepped forward and saluted.
"Thank you for your hard work, Matteo." Ryan smiled and said.
This was suggested by the beautiful woman Jennifer. She sent the short Matteo to the imperial capital to make preparations.
Originally, the beautiful woman was going to help Ryan buy a house to settle down first.
But Ryan's title is still only a viscount, and his fiefdom belongs to the province of Munster. If he wants to buy a house in the imperial capital where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, even if he has enough money, he can only buy the third ring and beyond.
But even the third ring requires the fiefdom nobles in the imperial capital and the surrounding areas to buy directly, or they can buy it at a premium of several times as a wealthy businessman.
Ryan thought about it and still declined the beautiful woman's plan to buy a house, but he accepted the suggestion of letting Matteo go first to play the outpost.
Because before coming here, during a gathering with the Duke of Munster, the other party took the initiative to propose that Ryan could stay temporarily in the Bavaria family's mansion in the imperial capital.
Considering Anna and safety, Ryan accepted the olive branch thrown by the Duke of Munster.
The Bavaria family's mansion in the imperial capital is in the inner ring, and its safety is undoubtedly much better than the third ring and beyond. Moreover, it is very close to the Sword Bearer headquarters, which is convenient for Ryan to travel back and forth every day.
"It should be. I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to come to the imperial capital Tamriel. Thank you Lord Ryan for giving me this opportunity." Matteo said with a little excitement.
Although he was originally a young man from the small town of Shimmering Gold Town, he has been in the imperial capital for almost ten days, but he is still overwhelmed by all kinds of new things every day.
"By the way, Lord Ryan, I forgot to introduce you. This is Mr. Orledo, the butler of the Bavaria family mansion." Matteo patted his head and said.
"Good day, Lord Ryan, and good day, beautiful Miss Anna." Orledo smiled and saluted respectfully.
"Hello, butler Orledo."
"The Duke has already written to me a long time ago. I have already arranged the residence for you and Miss Anna."
"Yes, thank you."
"By the way, Lord Ryan, where is your pet tag? I will help you register it. The management of war pets in the imperial capital is quite strict."
"Okay, thank you."
Ryan came to the imperial capital this time and brought the blood-feathered horned eagle beast with him again.
As for the greyhound war dog Cookie, because he was very close to his sister Mint, Ryan left him and the fast-walking wildebeest Xiao Hei in Munster.
Soon, Ryan and Anna got on the luxurious carriage of the Bavarian family and drove to the inner ring.
In the carriage, butler Orledo talked about some of the situation in the imperial capital.
"There are far more than four airship berths in the imperial capital, and this does not include the exclusive airship berths of the royal family, the military, and the sword bearers."
"Oh? The Sword Bearer Headquarters also has an exclusive airship berth?" Ryan raised his eyebrows and said.
"Yes, Lord Ryan. By the way, whenever you go to the Sword Bearer Headquarters, if you need a carriage, just tell the servant."
"Okay, thank you, but I won't need it for now. I plan to take a walk first."
Ryan had already decided on the way to go to the Bixiu Construction School to find Instructor Mogaro.
Because the second volume of the Iron Heart Advanced Meditation Method is crucial to the process of his spiritual power liquefaction. After all, things like divine power crystals are hard to come by.
If you want to improve the liquefaction process as quickly as possible, you have to rely on the advanced meditation method.
"Okay, Lord Ryan, there are too many fun places in the imperial capital. You can take Miss Anna to walk around and take a look." Oledo, who was in charge of the reception, said respectfully.
This respect is naturally for a reason, because the Duke of Munster wrote very clearly in the letter that all the requirements of the young Viscount Ryan should be met as much as possible.
If there are difficulties, they must be overcome.
If there are really problems that cannot be solved, contact Master Harlowen immediately to help solve them.
Orledo, who was in charge of the reception, was the first time to see his Lord Duke attach so much importance to a viscount, almost more than the importance he attached to his own son, Harlowen, known as the 'Spear of Bavaria'.
The Duke did not give a detailed account of the specific situation of Viscount Ryan.
Orledo only knew that Ryan was a sword bearer, but even if he was a magic iron-level sword bearer, the Duke seemed to attach too much importance to him.
However, although he did not understand, he would still complete the tasks assigned by the Duke meticulously.
The next day, the dawn was slightly revealed.
In a luxurious bedroom in the Bavarian mansion.
Ryan slightly loosened his arms that were hugging the girl's white and smooth skin and began to get up.
He planned to go to the Bishu Construction School today according to the address recorded on the memory crystal.
"Ryan?" Anna opened her sleepy eyes and said.
"Anna, you take a rest for a while, and help me take care of Xueyu later. I'm going to the school."
"Well! Come back early."
Anna naturally had no objection since she knew that Ryan was going to the school.
Following the address in the memory crystal, Ryan quickly took a carriage and arrived at his destination.
It was located deep in a quiet alley. On the iron sign of the shop, there was a large barrel of beer painted brightly, and a wine glass was placed under the tap of the barrel. The shop sign read "Craig Winery".
Although it was still early in the morning, it was already open for business.
Ryan looked up and couldn't help but wonder, "Is this a stronghold of the school, or is it the effect of some witchcraft?"
"This strange guest, is this your first time to Craig Winery?" A female receptionist stepped forward and asked with a smile.
"Well, I'm looking for Lord Mogaro."
"Oh? Lord Mogaro? You are... Please follow me." The female receptionist's eyes lit up and she said immediately.
Soon, Ryan followed the female receptionist to the wine cellar on the underground first floor. She rang the bell, and soon the wooden door of the wine cellar was opened. A sloppy middle-aged man in a gray wizard robe came out and said,
"Joey, why did you disturb my sleep so early in the morning?"
But when he saw Ryan and sensed it a little, he immediately rubbed his eyes, his eyes widened, and looked at Ryan with an expression of disbelief.
"Hmm? This sir, who are you..."
Because although he didn't know Ryan's specific situation, judging from the obscure and powerful aura on Ryan, even a fool knew that the other party was not a third-level wizard apprentice, but at least a formal wizard.
"I'm here to see Master Mogaro."
"Master Mogaro? Sir, if you want to enter the school, you need to show your badge." The sloppy man looked at Ryan in confusion.
He confirmed that he had never seen Ryan.
But the other party called Mogaro a mentor, and it seemed that he was a member of the school.
"Please check. My name is Ryan. Instructor Mogaro should have told the school."
"Please wait a moment. I will check it right away." The other party hurried back to the door.
In less than a minute, the other party came out again and said respectfully: "Lord Ryan, it has been confirmed that Lord Mogaro has reported to the academy more than a month ago. I will take you to the school now."
"Yes, thank you."
As Ryan stepped into the cellar.
The next second, a complex array of light flashed on the ground. Ryan seemed to have entered a bubble. After a layer of ripples flashed, he disappeared at the door of the cellar.
After a blurry vision, Ryan found that he had come to an underground hall.
"Hey, is this a teleportation array?"
"Yes, this is a short-distance teleportation array. The specific technology has been lost. This was moved from the ancient ruins by the strong men of the school a long time ago." The sloppy man said proudly.
At the same time.
In a spacious room in the residence of the Bixiu Construction School.
From a distance, a series of ding-dong sounds could be heard.
I saw a group of young men and women in grey wizard robes, all rolled up their sleeves, busying themselves with various shapes of metal blocks, some of them holding a hammer in their hands, knocking them from time to time.
"Audrey, you are getting more and more proficient in metal deformation. Unlike me, every time the deformation of the component is not completely successful, it needs to be corrected manually."
"Alas! Why do I feel that I, a metal wizard, am more like a blacksmith? Oh my God! There are so many things to do, and the workload of this job is too heavy." A male wizard with chestnut short hair complained with a bitter face.
"Puchi, Joseph, don't complain. Have you not complained for a day this month?" The speaker was a slender girl who looked only in her early twenties, with a tall and graceful figure and a pretty face.
"If you have this energy, you might as well practice metal deformation." After the girl finished speaking, she pressed a pair of white and slender palms on a piece of metal.
As she silently recited the spell.
The washbasin-sized iron block began to slowly deform. After nearly half a minute, an iron component similar to a hollow cylinder was completed.
However, beads of sweat also appeared on the girl's forehead.
Obviously, the metal transformation just now was still very difficult for her.
"I agree with Joseph on this point. Recently, we have too much work in the metal department. I don't have time to attend the wizard salon." Another older, more mature female wizard with a curvy figure also said helplessly.
"Hey, have you heard about it?"
"Paul Nixon of the clay department entered the late stage of the first-level wizard the day before yesterday. The degree of mental atomization exceeds 60%. I heard that he is only 27 years old. It's really amazing!" The mature female wizard told a little gossip.
"What? Didn't he come to the school for only half a year? He has entered the late stage already?" Joseph said in surprise.
"What's so strange about this? Don't forget that the other party is the heir of the Duke of Nixon's family in the imperial capital. He has been carefully cultivated since childhood. It is normal for him to have such talent and progress speed." The mature female wizard rolled her eyes at Joseph and said.
"By the way, Alicia, who is better, Nixon or the new student of Teacher Mogaro?" Joseph suddenly thought of a question and asked the mature female wizard.
"Are you talking about the Ryan that Teacher Mogaro has been talking about recently? It is said that the other party has amazing talent, is also a formal wizard, and is very young." The mature female wizard was stunned, but immediately remembered something.
"It's hard to say, but I think Nixon should be better. The foundation of the bloodline family is not what ordinary people can imagine." The female wizard named Alicia shook her head and said.
"I think so too. If the talent is similar, or even slightly better than Nixon, it's useless. The other party has the guidance of high-level wizards in the family and has various rare resources." Joseph nodded and said with envy.
"That's not necessarily true. After all, no one has seen Ryan. How can you make such a conclusion so arbitrarily?" Only Audrey disagreed. She frowned and said.
She was also quite curious about Ryan, who Teacher Mogaro had been talking about many times.
And from what the teacher said, the other party's talent is extremely high.
Maybe, after the other party comes, they can inject new vitality into the metal department.
"Audrey, that's you." When Joseph was about to say something.
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded: "Well, if you have time to chat, spend some time to make a few more puppet components to exchange for college contribution points."
As the voice fell, a short red-bearded old man suddenly appeared behind them.
"Ah! Teacher Mogaro!" Joseph couldn't help but be startled and said in a panic.
"Teacher Mogaro, good day!" Audrey couldn't help but stick out her tongue and said playfully.
All the wizards and wizard apprentices present greeted him.
"Hello, Master!"
"Good day, Master Mogaro!"
On the corridor back, Mogaro couldn't help shaking his head and sighed: "These few! Although Joseph has a good character, his talent is really average. After ten years, the degree of mental atomization has not reached 20%."
"Alicia is a little better. The degree of atomization has exceeded 30%, but she is already 39 years old, which is not a fast progress. Moreover, she is thinking about finding a partner and is not interested in studying witchcraft at all."
"Among the three, only Audrey has the best mental qualification and the most perseverance. Unfortunately, her affinity with metal elements is average."
"Alas! Trevor will soon be back from the Rage Canyon, but these three people don't seem to be able to fill the gap."
The others are still wizard apprentices, so Mogaro naturally doesn't consider them.
At present, among the school's residence, only these three students he has taught have entered the formal wizard stage.
"Speaking of Ryan, should I write a letter to him?"
"But. He is a sword holder, and he should be helpless in many cases. Let's wait a little longer." Mogaro thought.
"Master Mogaro, there is a Mr. Ryan outside who wants to see you. He said he is your student, but the academy has not yet recorded his exclusive mental power identification, so you need to confirm it again."
"What? Ryan is here?" Mogaro immediately put down the wine glass in his hand and stood up immediately.
Ryan did not wait in the hall for long. After a few minutes, he saw a familiar red-bearded old man who was only about 1.5 meters tall, with a happy face, walking quickly.
"Teacher Mogaro, long time no see." Ryan bowed slightly and said with a smile.
"Hahaha, Ryan, you are finally here!" Mogaro saw Ryan, laughed happily, took Ryan's hand, and walked inside.
"If you don't come again, I want to write you a letter!"
"Hey, wait!"
"Ryan, you, have you entered the second-level liquefied wizard?" As a veteran wizard at the peak of the first level, Mogaro was naturally very sensitive to perception. He was too happy just now and didn't pay attention, but after walking two steps, he found something wrong.
The surging and condensed mental power fluctuations of his student Ryan have actually reached...
"How can I teach a student who has just entered school and has surpassed the instructor in strength?" Mogaro was dumbfounded!
You know, more than a month ago, when he taught Ryan the Iron Heart Advanced Meditation Method, Ryan's aura had just entered the first-level wizard not long ago, but now, he has become a second-level liquefied wizard, surpassing him?
"This"
in Mogaro's office.
Ryan and Mogaro sat opposite each other, and Mogaro said excitedly: "So, Ryan, you have completed the first level of the Iron Heart Advanced Meditation Method, and now you need the second level, right?"
"Yes, instructor, I came to the imperial capital this time and chose to come to the school first, just to learn the second level of Iron Heart as soon as possible. In a few days, I will report to the Imperial Capital Sword Bearer Headquarters." "
Huh? You were transferred to the Sword Bearer Headquarters? You are so young, and you have become a magic iron-level sword bearer?" Mogaro looked at Ryan and couldn't help but admire him more.
As a veteran wizard, he naturally understood the Imperial Sword Bearers and knew that the promotion of the Sword Bearers was achieved through hard work.
Similar to military merit, one had to go through many battles and complete various difficult tasks before being promoted.
If you are not strong enough, it is not a good thing to be promoted, because the difficulty of the tasks you have to face will increase suddenly.
This is also the reason why the sword holder has a very high gold content. Other factors, such as background, have less impact.
"Uh, mentor, I am not a magic iron-level sword holder." Ryan hesitated and said.
"Huh? Is it a temporary job training? Admiral Edward thinks highly of you." Mogaro raised his eyebrows, thought of something, and smiled.
"I am a fine gold-level sword holder." Ryan felt that there was no need to hide this from the mentor, because once he reported to the sword holder headquarters, many people would know about it.
If it was concealed, it would cause Mogaro to misunderstand, resulting in a decrease in trust, which would not be worth the loss.
"What!" Mogaro's eyes widened, his hands shook suddenly, and the Bordeaux aged wine he had just picked up fell directly on the wizard robe.
But he didn't care about the wine at all, and immediately asked: "A fine gold sword holder? How is that possible?"
"You"
The next second, as if he thought of something, Mogaro calmed down, waved his hand, and said: "You sword holders have confidentiality regulations, so you don't have to tell me. I believe what you said."
"By the way, Ryan, if you come here to exchange for the second level of Iron Heart this time, there is a small problem that is more troublesome. You don't have enough contribution points in the school."
"Oh? Contribution points? Do you need to make contributions to the school to get them?"
"Well, it's a pity that contribution points cannot be transferred, otherwise, I will give you some." Mogaro nodded and said.
"In fact, this problem can't be blamed on the school. I guess there has never been someone like you in the history of the entire Bixiu Construction School. You just came to the school and you need the second level of meditation." Mogaro couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Teacher, how can I get contribution points quickly?" Ryan could understand the school's approach.
"Generally speaking, you can earn contribution points by completing the tasks of the school. Since our school is not good at combat, there are many manufacturing tasks in addition to combat tasks. But these cannot be learned overnight, and you need to master a certain amount of inscription knowledge."
"Oh? Manufacturing? Inscription?" Ryan's eyes lit up.
If it is metal manufacturing, Ryan has not found anyone who can solidify metal deformation into a gifted witchcraft faster than him.
As for inscription, although he is not proficient, he is also at the level of a junior inscription master.
"Is it about metal puppets?" Ryan confirmed.
"Well, recently our metal department has received a large order from the military to make 100 furious hammer combat puppets."
"In fact, with your identity as a sword holder, it should be easier to complete the school's combat, garrison or patrol tasks." Mogaro thought exactly the opposite of what Ryan thought.
In his opinion, it was a waste for his student with rich combat experience and strong strength to make puppet parts to earn contribution points.
"However, you will report to the Sword Bearer Headquarters soon. It may be too late to complete the combat mission now. It won't be too late to come to the school after you report."
"In the next two days, let someone take you to familiarize yourself with the environment."
In Mogaro's eyes, Ryan's progress speed is already shocking. He is not in a hurry to complete the mission to earn contribution points. Instead, he can stroll around leisurely.
"Well, teacher, I want to ask, how many contribution points are needed to exchange for the second level of Iron Heart?"
"This is not much. The second level of Iron Heart is a meditation method, and the contribution points exchanged are much less than the same level of witchcraft. If I remember correctly, it should be 500 points."
"Then how many contribution points are rewarded for making the parts of the Wrath Hammer Combat Puppet that you just mentioned, teacher?"
"Well, are you really interested?" Mogaro looked at Ryan in confusion and said.
"Yes!" Ryan nodded.
"Different parts have different contribution points. I am responsible for the final assembly and debugging, while others are responsible for the production of parts, engraving of inscriptions, etc. Ryan, if you are interested, you can ask someone to take you to learn more about it."
"Okay! Teacher, I'll go and take a look." Ryan nodded and was about to get up.
"Hey, Ryan, are you in such a hurry?" Seeing Ryan was going now, Mogaro couldn't help but shook his head helplessly and said.
"Okay, I still have to debug these furious hammer combat puppets. I'll let Audrey take you to familiarize yourself with the production process."
"Audrey~"
"Teacher, you called me?" A girl with lively eyes walked into the room.
