A Realistic Mount & Blade Game

Those two areas were obviously just as Zhang Bo had guessed, Deherim was preparing to expand again, but unexpectedly the expansion area vaguely had an area as large as the current town area.

Mainly, Zhang Bo was slightly stunned, looking at the parchment and forcibly withdrawing his gaze, looking back at Shen Mu.

"Yes, Lord Shen Mu, I do have very important matters to report. In my backpack, I obtained special magic items," Zhang Bo said, taking off the two backpacks he was carrying on his back and placing them on the table.

The backpacks were bulging, obviously containing something.

"Obtained special magic items?" At this time, not only was Shen Mu slightly surprised, but even Manid next to Shen Mu turned his head to look.

"Yes, magic items, and magic items with the power of light and magic items with the aura of nature."

At this time, Zhang Bo reached into his backpack and took out the two magic items.

One of them was white, and the other was green.

The white magic item was in the shape of a spear, but the spear was already full of cracks, and only the spearhead remained, with the spear shaft broken off.

The green one was in the shape of a branch, also broken off from a large tree branch.

At this time, the white spear flickered, and the white light carried a trace of sacred aura, obviously the aura of light, dignified and solemn, and it gave people a feeling of majesty and awe.

On the green branch, green light flickered, and at the same time, after looking at it, one could feel the peaceful and fresh aura emanating from it, and even taking a light breath because of being close could make one feel a sense of tranquility spreading in the heart.

And at this moment, a dialog box suddenly appeared in front of Shen Mu.

【Ding! The system detects special magic items that can be analyzed. After absorption, it will produce a strong amplification effect on the power of light and the power of nature.】

【Among them, the power belonging to light will produce an amplification effect on the special building "Holy Light Torch Tower of the Holy White Council".】

【Among them, the power belonging to nature will produce an amplification effect on the special magic plant "Holy White Oak".】

【Do you want to receive these two magic items and analyze them?】

"These two items can indeed amplify the buildings and special magic plants I currently own," Shen Mu had already guessed that it would be useful to him when he heard Zhang Bo say that he had two magic items, one a magic item of light power and the other a magic item of natural power.

Unexpectedly, the system directly popped up a dialog box, also directly indicating to him that these two special magic items were indeed quite useful to him.

"Well done, Mage Zhang Bo," Shen Mu nodded, looking at Zhang Bo's humble appearance, his eyes also showed some shock.

He didn't expect that Zhang Bo, this Blue Star human, would directly hand over these two precious magic items to him.

He could imagine that if these two special magic items were in Zhang Bo's hands, then as a spellcaster, he would definitely be able to find some special power from them to help him improve his mage level.

After all, magic items greatly amplify professional practitioners, and spellcasters among professional practitioners are even more powerful existences, and can obtain more useful power from special spiritual realm magic items.

Moreover, even if Zhang Bo did not hand over these two special magic items to him, but kept them privately, Shen Mu would not be able to say anything more, after all, this was found by Zhang Bo himself, and it had nothing to do with him. It had nothing to do with Deherim, and as long as Zhang Bo didn't want to say it, Shen Mu would not be able to know.

Even if Shen Mu knew, he would not be able to plunder them by force, but could only make up for Zhang Bo in other ways, so that he could safely and securely hold these two magic items in his hands.

Now Zhang Bo actually handed over these two magic items directly to him, which shows that Zhang Bo has indeed recognized Deherim in his heart, and also recognized Shen Mu.

At least that's what Shen Mu himself thought.

You know, before, Sun Zhiru only offered him a special magic item, but looking at that magic item, it was related to the power of light and the storage of the power of faith, and it could produce corresponding fusion with the Dragon Banner fragments. In a sense, it was indeed of a higher level and had a greater effect than the two magic items that Zhang Bo gave him.

However, according to Shen Mu's speculation, Sun Zhiru also hesitated for a long time before choosing to hand over the statue fragment to him in exchange for the opportunity to live in Deherim.

And Zhang Bo actually handed over these two newly acquired magic items to him on the spot without hesitation. He really felt a sense of emotion.

"Lord Shen Mu, this is a gift I give to you. You should know that I have always admired you very much since the days when the Diesel Company still existed. Now that I have joined your Deherim, I always want to do my part and do my best. Now I can finally do it."

Zhang Bo said quite sincerely: "Before, I was just an unknown divination mage, and maybe my future will be better, but now, my ability is not enough to support the development of your Deherim, so I can only repair my magic crystal ball as soon as possible, and then use its function to explore whether there are any magic items. Now I have finally found an opportunity to obtain these two magic items, and then hand them over to you."

"Very good, Mage Zhang Bo, very good. I don't know how to repay your sincerity to me." Looking at the two magic items placed on the table in front of him, Shen Mu's eyes were also a little moved.

However, he looked at Zhang Bo and nodded solemnly and asked: "Then, Mage Zhang Bo, what kind of reward do you want to get?"

Shen Mu gave this question to Zhang Bo, after all, he also understood that Zhang Bo was a divination mage, a spellcaster from a spiritual realm inheritance. And he has also resonated with the little sprite at the soul level, so he doesn't care about his position as a Kishi Centurion at all.

If Zhang Bo cared, he would have already submitted an application to him and transformed himself into a centurion.

But no.

So Shen Mu didn't know how to reward Zhang Bo, so he directly asked this question, giving the question to Zhang Bo himself. If what Zhang Bo proposed was not so excessive, then Shen Mu would be willing to fulfill his request.

“Thank you, kind and generous Shen Mu. Sir, as you know, I am a spellcaster, and I wish to enter your castle to see the mysterious Torch Tower that radiates the power of light.”

Zhang Bo's face showed little emotion at this time. Instead, he looked at Shen Mu seriously and said piously, "Every time I approach that Torch Tower that radiates the power of light, I can feel the pure power of light within it, flickering in my heart. As a divination mage, I am naturally close to the power of light. I also want to know what the light fluctuations and light structure are like. In my heart, if I can go to the Torch Tower and often feel the power of light, perhaps I can improve my spellcaster level."

Zhang Bo said this without the slightest concealment, and the gaze he gave Shen Mu was very sincere, and his tone was without any fluctuation. Everything was like words spoken by a seeker of knowledge.

“Enter the Holy Light Torch Tower in the castle area?” At this time, Shen Mu was slightly stunned and looked at Zhang Bo, also carefully observing the expression on his face and in his eyes.

However, he did not directly agree, but remained silent for a moment.

Because the castle area was too important, he originally did not intend to allow any Blue Star humans other than Liu Na to enter the castle area.

The reason why Liu Na was allowed to enter the castle area was because Shen Mu had restricted Liu Na to the castle area, preventing her from coming to the town area.

After all, Liu Na had been following Shen Mu from the apartment building to the independent town and now to the castle.

She knew too much.

Therefore, Liu Na was treated differently, but not in a particularly special way. Instead, Liu Na was trapped in the castle area, unable to communicate with those normal Blue Star humans in the town area.

In this way, it was as if Liu Na was under house arrest in the castle area.

Completely isolated from the Blue Star humans outside.

Therefore, in the castle area, whether it was the Holy White Oak, the Holy Light Torch Tower, or the deployment of various barracks and forces, Shen Mu personally arranged them as an absolute forbidden area, his trump card, and it was impossible to reveal them through Liu Na.

The castle area was still self-contained.

However, what Zhang Bo said was indeed irrefutable, and the reason was quite sufficient: as a spellcaster, he felt the sacred power in the Torch Tower and wanted to go over to comprehend the magical power within it, and then improve his level.

To the point that Shen Mu now wanted to refuse, but didn't know how to refuse.

The castle area was indeed not allowed for any Blue Star humans to enter. This was a rule he had set at the beginning.

“But perhaps this rule should be changed.” Shen Mu frowned, looked at Zhang Bo in front of him, hesitated for a moment, then nodded again and said, “In that case, you are indeed qualified to enter the Torch Tower. Moreover, Mage Zhang Bo, the Torch Tower is not just a simple magic Torch Tower. In fact, it is also my library and mage tower. Among them, there are also many mages from the Spirit Realm Human Empire studying the mysteries of magic.”

“This is really amazing. I didn't know that Lord Shen Mu actually had a group of mages studying the mysteries of magic.” At this time, Zhang Bo showed an extremely shocked expression, looking at Shen Mu with wide eyes, and also with some self-deprecating look on his face: “I thought I was the only mage in Derheim. I didn't expect that Lord Shen Mu also had other mages. My previous arrogance and self-esteem now really feel very ashamed.”

“These are all gifts from the Human Empire, and you, Mage Zhang Bo, belong to our Blue Star human's own mage spellcaster. I still respect you very much.” Shen Mu comforted him with a smile.

“Thank you for your comfort, Lord Shen Mu. I understand all of this.” Zhang Bo sighed, still bowing respectfully to Shen Mu.

However, for Zhang Bo, he was indeed quite shocked in his heart.

He really didn't expect that in that Torch Tower, there was actually a group of mages studying the mysteries of magic.

That's right, it was a group.

Not just one or a few.

This meant that Shen Mu's castle had a complete mage team operating that Torch Tower, which was the same as what Shen Mu said, a library and a mage tower.

This really surprised Zhang Bo, and at the same time, he was glad that his plan was implemented as soon as possible. Otherwise, if he continued to wait, not only would Derheim's city construction become stronger and stronger, but also, in secret, Shen Mu's mage team would become stronger and stronger.

If there really was a growth in transcendent power at that time, and Shen Mu's transcendent mage team obtained stronger magical power.

Perhaps due to unclear information, if he led the wood elves to kill in, he would suffer a big loss.

Zhang Bo subconsciously pressed his chest while bowing.

His heart was pounding.

No wonder he had sensed some magical fluctuations in the castle area before. Although subtle, it was noticeable, and it was not a naturally formed magical fluctuation, but rather a magical fluctuation generated when someone was casting a spell.

Thinking about it now, it was indeed those spellcasters practicing spells or releasing spells, and studying the magic structure to become stronger.

“Well, Mage Zhang Bo, I will give you a privilege to commend your contribution.” Shen Mu also thought for a moment before continuing to say to Zhang Bo: “I will allow you to go to the Torch Tower of the Holy White Council in the castle area every day for 4 hours of comprehension time.”

“This is already more than enough, respected Lord Shen Mu.” Zhang Bo hurriedly bowed again, looking quite excited.

“But Mage Zhang Bo, after entering the castle area, you can only go to the Torch Tower of the Holy White Council, and there will be someone to lead the way for you. You are not allowed to go to other places.” For safety's sake, Shen Mu still made a little guarantee, and also told Zhang Bo in advance to avoid some emotions in Zhang Bo's heart.

“I understand, Lord Shen Mu.” There was not the slightest expression of dissatisfaction on Zhang Bo's face, and he still bowed respectfully.

Shen Mu felt that Zhang Bo was quite good.

At least in Shen Mu's view, everything Zhang Bo had done so far was quite satisfactory.
