Chapter 24: . Stupid speed
The Kingdom of Portoroa is the product of a bet by a pair of brothers.
At that time, the elder brother was supposed to inherit the throne of an empire, but he was defeated in a magical contest with his younger brother. According to the stakes, the person who won can become the king of the empire, so the person who inherited the throne became the younger brother. , And my brother became a grand duke.
The follow-up part of the original story should be the development of the happy ending of revenge against the brother and finally killing the brother to become the king of the empire, but the result is not.
The elder brother developed the Principality extremely powerfully with extraordinary means, and then annexed several neighboring principalities one after another, and formally developed into a kingdom. At this time, the younger brother finally found out that it turned out that his elder brother had left his hand in the match that year, so he was able to win, only because the elder brother was worried that his pampered younger brother could not get used to the outside of the palace. That’s why he gave up the throne to his younger brother.
After understanding the truth, of course the younger brother wanted to return to the throne, but the elder brother did not agree. After a dispute, the younger brother continued to be the king of the empire, and the elder brother became the king of the kingdom, and then the two brothers again He has signed many common development treaties for his descendants.
The empire is one of the most powerful empires in the Marvel Continent today, and the Maggie Empire, which is also famous for its magical powers.
"So, you now know the origins of the Kingdom of Portoroa." Cecilia told Sean the story about this magical kingdom as if offering a treasure, with a look of pride and satisfaction on her face.
As a player, especially a senior player, even if you don’t know much about the background information of each country, you can’t know it at all, because it often involves many hidden missions and relics. Therefore, what Cecilia told Sean about the history of the Kingdom of Puerto Rico, he knew it a long time ago, and he even knew more about the various territories of this kingdom than the members of the royal family, but looked at Cecilia’s smile. , He can only regard it as not knowing anything.
Although the Timberland under the rule of the Marquis of Perot de Royce is considered to be a very prosperous territory in the entire Kingdom of Puerto Rico, the Royce family is not an ancient family, just a few generations. Human development is nothing more than human development, so even with the title of Marquis, the area of the territory is still no more than an earl family that has experienced more than a dozen generations of development, let alone those ancient families that have existed since the establishment of the kingdom.
After all, the royal family of the Kingdom of Portoroa is supported by the royal family of the Magi Empire, so its regime is very strong. All civil wars are forbidden in the kingdom. Therefore, if you want to expand the territory, you need some special management methods. Of course, the most important thing here is that you must Get permission from the royal family. In the Kingdom of Portoroa, the imperial power is supreme. Even a duke would not dare to resist the royal family, even if he wanted to revoke his duchy title and reclaim his territory-this is completely different from the Kingdom of Selian.
In the Kingdom of Selian, the rule of the royal family has long existed in name only. To put it nicely, it can only be regarded as a stronger noble. The relevant affairs of the entire kingdom are completely determined by the powerful rulers of the region, even the royal family. Can't get in. Even if the opposing party's title is only a viscount, as long as the word "strength" is placed in the front, it will have an equal status with the royal family. Without strength, it is just an empty vernacular in the Kingdom of Selian.
However, for players, they naturally prefer the Kingdom of Celian, because as long as they are strong enough, they can even become the ruler of a region.
It’s just Sean, who doesn’t have much interest in the Kingdom of Celian. If there is no place to use that chaotic place, he doesn’t even want to go back.
At this moment, Cecilia and Sean are in a small city led by Tindes.
This is a small city named Arthur. The entire city has a population of only about 10,000. Compared with another city Anluola under the Timbers, the scale of development, population, trade flow, etc. are much smaller. .
The two were just wandering in the city. Cecilia said a few words about the history and customs of the Kingdom of Portoroa from time to time, but more of them were evaluating the magical materials that Sean liked. Halfway through, there were a few profiteers who tried to deceive Sean with shoddy ones, but they all failed under Cecilia’s "fire-eyed eyes". At first they wanted to bully Cecilia, who was just an apprentice of magic and lacked knowledge. , But after Cecilia simply said a few words about the medicinal properties and quality of these magic materials, these profiteers left in a desperate manner.
Although Cecilia is an apprentice of magic, she is not an ordinary apprentice of magic. For theoretical knowledge and magic-related knowledge, even an ordinary formal magician cannot match. Moreover, after wearing the blood-stripe hexagonal ring, Cecilia's wisdom and will have risen to an astonishing 33 and 35, respectively. Compared with those official magicians in peak state, they are not much better, even with memory. Followed up a lot.
Sean has also seen the huge magic book that Cecilia has always cherished. It contains a lot of content about magicians. There are also many kinds of materials, from medicinal properties, growth sites to cycles, Applicable places, etc., are all explained in detail. Cecilia could only memorize a fraction of it before, but now that her wisdom attributes have soared, she has only memorized nearly one-third of the content in a few days, and even she herself feels a little weird.
The improvement of personal attributes is more than just attributes in the real world.
"Why not go to Enrolla?" After shopping for most of the day, almost nothing was gained, and Cecilia was inevitably tired. "The Black Cat Chamber of Commerce has opened a branch there. If we are looking for magic materials, go Isn't it more convenient over there?"
Xiao En smiled, and said casually: "There are some things, even the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce, they may not have them."
He does not mean that.
As soon as Sean’s words fell, a young man about 27 or 8 years old suddenly spoke, with a somewhat indifferent and hostile tone: "Oh? I don’t know what precious material it is, not even the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce. There must be?"
"It's too much." Xiao En smiled slightly, as if he didn't hear the indifference and hostility in the other's tone at all, "For example, the flower of Darrow Morgan, the seven-color gem leaf, the pure white ice bone..."
Each time Sean uttered a name, the young man's face became darker, but after only four or five materials were mentioned, the young man's face was already like the bottom of a pot. However, the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce does not have these things that Sean said, so there is no way to refute it directly, so he can only coldly snorted: "These things, even if the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce, you can't afford them."
"That's true." Xiao En nodded, but did not continue to argue. This attitude made the other party a little stunned. "But there is something that even a magic apprentice can afford, but the Black Cat Chamber of Commerce still doesn't have it."
"Oh? Then I am really curious." The young man raised his eyebrows.
Sean grinned, looking very brilliant: "What do you want to do with me?"
"You..." It seemed that Sean hadn't expected to say that, and the young man's face looked a little annoyed.
"Let's go, Cecilia." Shaun glanced at the other person, still smiling, but never looked at him again, and took Cecilia out of the magic material shop. Walk towards the hotel I rented before.
Arthur City is just a small city, the city area is not too big, most of the day is enough time for Cecilia and Sean to finish shopping. However, if this trip is really fruitless, it is not at all. The facts are exactly as Sean said. The purchase of materials, especially magic materials, in the Kingdom of Portoroa is indeed better than in the Kingdom of Celian. The edge is much cheaper, so Sean also bought several magic materials.
However, these materials are not the commonly used magic materials in Cecilia's imagination. Instead, they are magic materials that few people will use. Therefore, the price of them is naturally too low, even the price of ordinary herbs. Almost—you can buy a lot with just one silver coin. Although Cecilia didn't know what Sean was buying these things for, and several of them had obvious conflicting nature, since Sean bought them, it was enough to arouse Cecilia's curiosity.
However, what interests Cecilia even more is another.
Sitting on the bed in the hotel room, Cecilia took off her boots and asked, "Why are you arguing with that person today? It's not like your character."
Shaun was taking out the materials he bought one by one, and then laying them out on the table. He was thinking about how to strengthen his combat effectiveness. If he hadn’t discovered anything about the "skill" system in this world in the Forest of Starfall before, he planned to go all the way to the dark on the road of warriors, but now that he discovered this, he couldn’t help but start to hesitate whether he wanted to go. The swordsman's rank in this respect is closer, after all, the feeling that mystery swordsmanship brings to him is really wonderful.
So at this moment, after hearing what Cecilia said, Sean said absently: "Because that person is a mobile trigger point."
"Mobile trigger point?" Cecilia looked confused, "What's that?"
Hearing Cecilia’s puzzled voice, Sean was surprised and immediately realized that he had said something wrong.
The so-called mobile trigger point is actually the name of the player's way of accessing certain tasks in the game. The triggering of these tasks is not obtained from normal channels, but from some npcs, and these npcs do not stay in a fixed place, they move randomly, so they are called mobile trigger points. However, it is not difficult to find these task NPCs. The real difficulty is how to obtain tasks from them, or task rewards.
There are a total of four movement trigger points in the entire Tindes collar. These tasks are unique. Once a player receives them, no other players can receive tasks from these tasks npc before the task fails.
But now, no one fights with Sean anymore. He has a lot of time to choose tasks slowly.
The mobile trigger point of Arthur City is the best reward among the four missions, and it is also closely related to Cecilia's inauguration as a wizard.
At this time, after Sean realized that he had said something wrong, he couldn't help but answer Cecilia's curiosity in his eyes, so he thought about it, and finally squeezed three words from his mouth: " Stupid and faster."
"How stupid is it?" Cecilia chanted these three words, the confusion on her face even more obvious.
"Yes, it's stupid and fast." Sean thought for a moment. Most mobile trigger points are a little stupid. As long as they meet the conditions, they will lose the task. The task rewards are usually very good, but it attracts many people desperately. To find it, it is indeed in line with these three words, "It means that others are stupid and have a lot of money, so please go find him."
"Puff", Cecilia laughed happily: "Then how are you going to trouble him?"
