black wizard Zhu Peng

A middle-aged man with a majestic appearance and a strong physique, wearing a dark red aristocratic costume strode in.He held a small silver bowl in his hand, and bursts of tempting meat aroma wafted from the bowl.

"Rod, are you feeling better?"

The man frowned and walked to the bed.He casually put the silver bowl on the bedside table, and stretched out his rough, calloused hands to touch Zhu Peng's forehead.

"Well, I don't have a fever. I'll drink the broth in a while, your body is too weak now." The strong middle-aged man said so, and at the same time Zhu Peng quickly recalled the relevant memories of the man in front of him from his mind.

William Custer, the current patriarch of the Custer family, is also the viscount in charge of the territory.But in front of Rod Custer, he is just an old father who loves his youngest son.

"I remember I told you."

Viscount William said in a deep voice: "Don't hang out with those bastards of Riva Cheze. Even if you are companions studying together, don't get too close to them except for necessary contact."

"I made you worry, father, I promise I won't do it next time."

Zhu Peng bowed his head weakly to hide his unnaturalness. After all, he had no special training in acting skills. If he talked too much, it would be easy for the Viscount with sharp eagle eyes to notice something strange in front of him.

"...But it's a good thing that you killed that little bastard Kyle this time. Kyle is the only son of the Albuquer family, and he was killed by you suddenly. Old Albuquer will definitely Going crazy, I've wanted their castle for a long time." Seeing his son's pale face and guilty expression, Viscount William unconsciously slowed down his tone a little, and he even described a traumatic war as a war Chance.

In other words, it is really a blessing in disguise.

Rhodes was seriously injured this time, but he stabbed to death the only son of old Elbock. The old man who lost his only heir went crazy and led almost all the Nord infantry in the castle to fight out, vowing to avenge his blood relatives.

Facing such an old man who has completely fallen into madness, more than [-]% of the nobles in Calradia will choose to surrender their young sons to appease the other party's anger. After all, the son can be regenerated without a son. If you pay for it, it's not worth it.

However, the idea of ​​handing over Rhodes never appeared in Viscount William's mind. He chose to gather the fifty Vaegir cavalry he had accumulated in half his life, bring twenty Vaegir archers and five Ten Vaegir infantrymen and two hundred Nord infantrymen of Old Elbuck just came to the front.

Of course, nothing is said if the battle is won. If the battle is lost, Viscount William Custer will have to carry Rhodes on his back to wander the world. At his age, he probably doesn't even have the time capital to make a comeback.

However, Zhu Peng was very clear about such a big event.

Viscount William passed in front of Rhodes lightly, saying that this was an opportunity instead.It's just this responsibility that Zhu Peng's real father, Zhu Youxi, does not know how many universe light-years away...

"Your elder brother went to Zhiwadin to join the army. It doesn't matter whether he comes back or not. The heritage and hope of my Custer family rests with you, Rhodes. If something happens to you, I can't even imagine that." The consequences of this..." Viscount William sighed at this point, and stopped talking.

In Rhode's memory, Zhu Peng also knew that the father in front of him had such a temperament.

To the outside world, he is a powerful viscount of the Custer family, strong and cruel, almost cruel, and there are not a few servants in the family who were executed by him just because of some small mistakes.

And this viscount started from scratch, started as a commoner and worked hard from the humblest mercenary, established a mercenary regiment, participated in the national war, and finally became a nobleman with allegiance to King Vagia Rogerk.

When he was young, he went to Zhiwading, the capital of Vaegia, to learn military strategy, and participated in the national war as a powerful warrior and battlefield commander. He once beheaded fifteen Swadian heavyweights on the cruelest battlefield with his own sword. The cavalry almost turned the outcome of a battle with one man.

In the circles of nobles and commoners in Vaegia, what people talk about the most is Viscount William's cruelty, ruthlessness and unrestrained arrogance, and William Castor's insidious, cunning and vicious ruthlessness as a rising nobleman step by step. .

However, such a man has unique feelings for his youngest son Rhodes.

In other words, he was very fond of his commoner wife who died of dystocia after giving birth to Rhodes.No matter how strong and terrifying a man is, there will always be a soft spot in his heart.

"You have to remember, Rhodes. No matter what kind of interests you face, as the future heir of the Custer family, your life is the most important priority. Nothing is more important to the Custer family than your life." It's more valuable." Viscount William said to Zhu Peng after standing up.

"I remember, father." Rhodes or Zhu Peng nodded solemnly.

"Okay, you can rest after drinking the soup. I still have things to deal with. The old butler will find someone to take you back to the castle later. I'll go first." The Viscount nodded and turned to leave.

The moment Viscount William walked out, the bedroom door closed.

Zhu Peng's gaze inadvertently saw several knights in iron armor standing outside the door, the Vaegir knights, the most powerful fifth-level troops in the entire Vaegir, and there were only twelve of Viscount William's 50-man cavalry. The Vaegir knights, and the rest are filled by the next-level fourth-level cavalry Vaegir riders. They follow around, explaining that the matter that Viscount William will deal with this time is the trouble caused by Zhu Peng:

The Earl of the Nord Kingdom, old Elbuck and the two hundred Nord infantry under his command!

With a bang, the bedroom door slammed shut.

The viscount's soft voice and footsteps could be heard from the courtyard outside, and gradually faded away until they were completely inaudible.

(Although I am sorry, I am not your son, your son is dead... But people respect me a foot, I also respect others, the love owed today, I will definitely ten times in the days to come A hundredfold reward.)

Thinking so, Zhu Peng picked up the bowl of broth from the bedside table.

Looking inside, I saw a mass of waterweed-like hair-like lines hovering in the milky white soup. As the soup was shaken consciously by Zhu Peng, the lines floated, and a pale woman's face emerged from the soup. It floated out, and the scene was extremely weird and terrifying.

"The origin of this world has collapsed to such an extent...the more it gets to the later stage, there will be more things that make people crazy, but this process is like boiling frogs in warm water for humans in this world. Got used to it." Zhu Peng muttered to himself, he looked at the pale woman's cheek in the bowl, and the next moment, he raised his wrist and swallowed the whole bowl of soup and the pale woman's face in the soup. .

After all, it was just a small bowl. After drinking the soup, Zhu Peng leaned on the bed and rested for a while, and a warm force spread from his stomach to his whole body. Although it was weird and terrifying, the effect was astonishing. Zhu Peng could almost feel his body recovering some strength gradually.

(I don't know whether Viscount William can defeat Old Albuquerque. Although Viscount William is the most powerful emerging nobleman in the Vaegir Kingdom and led the mercenary regiment for a while, as a nobleman, his background is still insufficient , the old earl of Nord is a long-standing family inheritance, and the Nord infantry under his command are brave and good at fighting, and their loyalty is extremely high.

With 120 cavalry, [-] infantry and [-] Vaegir archers, [-] people face [-] senior Nord soldiers. The chances of winning on the frontal battlefield are extremely low. The battlefield commanding ability won the final victory, and I am afraid that the strength of the troops will also be greatly damaged... The most terrible troubled times, the craziest doomsday is about to come, and the power in hand is exhausted, how can the Custer family continue to build a family? , After all, hundreds of lives were lost! )

While lying on the bed and retrieving his own memory and knowledge loss, Zhu Peng was also decomposing and thinking about the memory that Rhodes left for him.

Even the dandy is a well-educated son of aristocrats after all, and Zhu Peng can still search the basic knowledge of military strategy from his memory, including the comparison of the pros and cons of various arms in Calradia.

Chapter 14 The Path of the Steel Plate Hero, The Lantern Council

In the continent of Calradia on the plane of Zenda, there are five rogue powers that dominate the world.

However, what they rely on is not nuclear warheads, but their strong military strength, horses under their crotch, swords in their hands, and human bravery and bloodiness.

The Vaegia where Rhodes lives is covered in ice and snow, so the Vaegia Kingdom is also known as the Land of Snow. The warriors here, whether they are cavalry or infantry, can move quickly in various terrains. The precise and quick archery skills of sub-shen archers are world-renowned.

It’s just that it may be because of the cold climate and abundant fur. The country’s iron smelting technology is relatively average. The soldiers mainly wear leather robes and light iron chain armor. The overall style of dying happily when others slaughter.

And the neighboring country Nord dominates the world with the strong physique of the coastal fighters and the invincible powerful infantry!

Of course, it is unrealistic for this country not to rely on infantry, because no horses are produced in Nordland, and it is difficult for the entire country to piece together a cavalry team of 200 people.

However, the throwing axes and javelins of the Nords are indeed extremely powerful. If Viscount William is so unwise as to use his fifty cavalry to charge the Nord army... I am afraid I will never see this heroic viscount again. If you really rush to the front of the infantry formation, you will be knocked down in half by heavy throwing axes and javelins.

The strong physique of the Nords has created the most cost-effective third-level infantry. The kingdom's top heavy infantry "Nuo Huang" is also the most powerful infantry unit of mankind, but the sixth-level Nord royal guards are too difficult to train. Difficult to form.

Specialties: Level 1 Leadership (morale +1), Level 2 Defense (Defense of the units you bring +6%)

When the source liquid metal intelligence (hereinafter referred to as Yuanzhi) completely scanned its own attributes and popped it up in front of his eyes, Zhu Peng was really taken aback by the exaggerated attributes and talents in front of him.

The total attribute of the main body is as low as fifty, which shows that his combat talent is miserable.

Just a few hooligans popping up from anywhere can completely abuse his body. Zhu Peng thought that the weakness at this moment was only due to serious injuries. Now looking at the fifty attributes in front of him, it shows that even without the actual use of the weak state Half, his paper attribute is as bleak as it can be.

However, in stark contrast to this is his own exaggerated special talent skills, strategic level 0 can increase the defense power of the fighters under his command by nearly [-]%. Isn't ability against the sky?

Thinking about his own "Zhu Gang" road in his heart, at the same time, he recalled in his mind the scenes he saw when all the power of fate spread in the "Fate Trajectory":

The fog of war will gradually cover the entire continent of Calradia, and the whole world will become more and more different. The surface changes, and fantasy and undead creatures appear to compete with humans for living space. The country gradually loses the strength to continue fighting, because with each time the fog of war thickens and dissipates, as the world plot continues to advance, fantasy species invade, and undead life crawls out of the original tomb, the whole world was originally The style of painting will undergo drastic changes, and the fifteen spy shadow wizards will only be considered as the end of the game when only one party is left.

However, other people may not be clear about it, but Zhu Peng has faintly peeked into the future through the power of his hole cards.

If the plot continues to develop like this, it will become more and more difficult for the Spy Wizards to survive in this world, not to mention killing each other. That also takes time and resources.

The original Zen Da world has been exploited and squeezed for countless years. It is hard to find many cultivation resources in this withered and dying world.

This resource depletion situation will gradually be alleviated with the integration of the world's origins, but in the middle and late stages when resources are more abundant, I am afraid that the fifteen spy shadow wizards will no longer have time to practice with peace of mind.

Lie on the bed for a while to recover his energy and organize his thoughts. Seeing that it was already the dead of night outside, Zhu Peng turned over and got out of bed.

He pushed open the door of the bedroom, and as expected, he saw a fat and strong maid dozing on the wooden table like a bear in the shed not far away.

As the most beloved son of the lord of this village, even in his own village, even when the military strength is the most tense, there are indispensable manpower to serve and guard.

What's more, the village head of Mazan Village didn't dare to neglect Rhodes. If anything happened to this young master here, the whole Mazan Village would have to die to make up for it.

The stout woman in the barn seemed to be in a light sleep, and Zhu Peng woke up when she got close to her, and grabbed the dung fork beside her...

Zhu Peng sized it up, and found that with this figure and the weapon in her hand, she might really be the most powerful creature in Mazan Village. Generally, the lower-level Vaegir warriors might not be able to compete with this wielding weapon. Tiecha's over 200-jin fat lady, at least at this moment, is hard to beat her.

European and American women are beautiful when they are young, but after their prime years, their bodies will swell and become fat like inflated balloons. When they were young, they were bullied and beaten by their husbands, and when they were middle-aged, they crushed their thin husbands and flattened them. Only two, so European and American men are generally dissolute and rascal when they are young, and more than 80.00% of them are honest after middle age.

Being beaten by two to three hundred catties of meat from time to time, it is indeed easy to lose interest in the opposite sex from now on.

"Young...Master, I didn't intend to be lazy, but, I just worked during the day...and at night..."

The stout woman was dressed in gray and simple clothes, bowed her head nervously and rubbed her sarong with both hands when facing Rhodes, it was obvious that there was such a huge difference in physique between the two, but the woman still showed an expression of awe and fear on her face. It made Zhu Peng feel like a lion walking in front of a sheep.

"It's nothing... I can't sleep because of a headache, go and prepare a basin of hot water for me, I want to wash my feet. Also, bring me a black cat, there seems to be a mouse in the room." Originally wanted to comfort the other party, but Seeing the other party's increasingly fearful expression, Zhu Peng decisively changed to giving orders.

Sure enough, this way of communication made the fat aunt feel more relaxed.

Zhu Peng turned and went back to the bedroom, but the fat bear-like woman was very efficient, and she came to the room with hot water and the cat in less than 10 minutes.

Zhu Peng took out five copper coins, which are dinars, the common currency in the Calradia continent. The gold and silver in the entire Zenda world have been extracted by the hands of sin, although those are not precious materials for casting spells. , but in the heavens it is a relatively circulating equivalent, leaving only copper and iron minerals that are really not worth the cost of transmission to this world.

"...Master, I don't want to..."

"Take a day off tomorrow, take the money and buy something delicious for your children, what's your name?"

"...my name is Pansy."

"You are fine. If I have time, I will tell the housekeeper to exempt your family from taxes for two years. It is not easy for a widow to live with a child. Well, go out, I have to wash my feet." Zhu Peng waved his hand, Tell the flattered Pansy to leave the room.

The fat woman scratched her head, she never thought about how the young master of the lord's family would know about her affairs.

In fact, for Zhu Peng, who is proficient in the basic deductive method of the Department of Human Anatomy and Foresight, it is really easy to see something from Pan Xi's apparent muscular structure and callused palms. In the combined damage mode of space, Zhu Peng damaged 20.00% of his virtual soul, lost a lot of knowledge and memory, and his abilities in various aspects will become even stronger... This is the Spy Shadow Wizard, and the incomparably powerful core makes them Even if he travels through the heavens and descends on ordinary people, he will show his head and feet very quickly and stand out from the crowd.Then establish a coordinate wizard array, so that the wizard world countless light years away can lock the target world and launch a cross-plane aggression war.

After listening to Pan Xi's heavy footsteps going away, Zhu Peng held the black cat in his arms, stroked its fur with both hands, and soaked his feet in hot water at the same time, looking down at the black cat's eyes.

Water is an excellent medium for traveling, and cats, especially black cats, are born with weak magical powers, but even so, if you want to open that world, you need source energy as the key.

"There is only 5.00% of the source energy remaining, is it consuming one percent of the energy reserve?"

"Yes."

Staring at the orange eyes of the black cat, with the consumption of source energy, the soul instantly penetrated into the alien space, and the candlelight in the bedroom room changed from dim yellow to light blue in an instant. An exclusive space for wizards to cooperate and exchange information: the Lantern Council.

"Phew...you are finally here. I thought you had already flown out of the world of Zen."

An illusory pentagram array in a different dimension, with a flame burning at each of its four corners.

When the crimson flame belonging to Zhu Peng burned, at least it meant that the five pawns from the evocation camp had successfully landed on the continent of Calradia.

Gruno Gill's flame was a gray-white chaotic light. After the flame representing Zhu Peng's will was ignited, he breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that he finally didn't have to face the most tragic and unfavorable start.

...The wind of war of horseback riding and blade, let's ride the fantasy medieval together...

In the alien space, the Lantern Council, each of the five corners of an illusory pentagram circle ignited a flame.

Gold is King Hathaway, gray and white is Shogi Gruno, blue is Sage Lyra, green is Cleric Wentus, and crimson is War Chess Zhu Peng.

"Although Ventus and Zhu Peng are a bit late, they are all here at last. Everyone will report their progress and where they will arrive, and see if they can develop together with each other..." Hathaway, as the king chess player with the most abundant source energy, naturally To have leadership, at least until she was proven unsuitable.

"I was in the 'desert country' Sultan of Sarande, one of the five great countries, and I descended on a young sand bandit. This kid is a ferocious elite template, with blood feuds for genocide. As soon as I tempted him, he sold his soul to me Yes. I will use the name of Gruno Gill directly. Anyway, few people knew him. Except for a small part of the remaining source energy to open the Lantern Council, the rest is used by me To strengthen my body, I am already a first-level barbarian. After all the energy is digested, I should be able to advance to the second level. I killed the original sand bandit leader and became the new commander. I am recruiting troops to plunder everywhere... already I slaughtered a group of dwarves and grabbed a burning battle ax with a strategic attack +2. I am currently preparing for a big event. In order to prevent any of you guys from being caught and forced to give out information, I will not discuss the specific event. You said it." The gray-white flame flickered, and a thought was transmitted to everyone.

Gruno Gill is really tyrannical and fierce. On the first day just arrived, he had already pulled up a team across the desert, but his approach was also very gambled. He reincarnated as a sand bandit at the beginning and put all his eggs in his hand All chips are exchanged for early advantage.

The reincarnated target has five hierarchical levels:

Paper-level templates, strong-level templates, fierce-level elite templates, hero-level templates, and boss-level templates.

Needless to say, the paper-level templates are the poor, hooligans, and beggars, who often have no skills, luck, social status, or development potential.

However, this kind of people who have been forgotten by the world are often the easiest to be reincarnated. Even forced reincarnation that oppresses their souls will not consume much source energy.

But this kind of existence, unless it is absolutely necessary, almost no spy shadow wizard will actively choose to reincarnate on them, because after reincarnation, the increase in level increase ability is surprisingly low, whether it represents the tactical level of personal combat power or represents the level of team warfare. There is no room for improvement at the strategic level of strength.
