Lord Harland.

After getting the life evolution potion, Richard immediately gave it to William.

William asked the officer's internal pharmacist to appraise it. After confirming that there was no problem, he immediately asked for a period of leave and took life evolution medicine at home to prepare for advancement.

He has broken through the sixth level for many years and accumulated rich experience.

After taking the potion for a short time, I successfully broke through to the seventh level.

By becoming a senior professional, William's status within the Northern Army has improved a bit.

Inside the Northern Legion, there are only eight high-level professionals in total. Except for the captain of the Knight Brigade and the captain of the First Brigade, they are all the commanders of the Legion Department.

Now that William has been promoted to a high-level professional, he should have been promoted to a senior official at the legion headquarters.

But now there are no vacancies in the Northern Legion. The only one who is not a high-level professional is Tengwei Saman, who is William's old superior and old chief.Besides, Tengwei Saman also broke through to the sixth-order knight some time ago, and his real combat power is a little stronger than William.

After discussing with the new legion commander Zachary, William decided not to take office at the legion headquarters. Instead, just like the captain of the first brigade, he continued to work below.

Just after Christmas, William was promoted to the military rank and transferred to the third battalion as the captain.

His military rank has been promoted to major general, and if he zooms in on the entire Grant Kingdom, he is considered a heavyweight officer.

Counting the armies of the noble lords, the Grant Kingdom has more than thirty legions in total. Counting the reserve officers who have retired from active service and command the private armies of the nobles, the total number of major generals does not exceed 200.

As an ordinary man of civilian origin, his development in the army has reached its peak.Even if one is promoted to a ninth-tier professional, it will be difficult to advance in the future.

For ordinary people and low-ranking nobles, the rank of major general and deputy army commander is an invisible ceiling.

The commander of the main army must have inextricable connections with the royal family.

Although the previous Earl Martins was a minor nobleman in the north, he had served in the Royal Guards for more than ten years and served as a guard for a period of time. At that time, he was responsible for protecting Charles, who had not yet become the king. The prince is now the king's loyal supporter.

Zachary, the head of the legion, has a richer resume. He has served as the head of the second-line legion and served as the adjutant of King Charles.

Only by breaking through the realm and being promoted to a legendary professional can one become a great nobleman and break through this ceiling.

After William advanced, the influence of the Harland family increased a bit.

At Christmas time, Powell and Uncle Bernie's children came to Fort William.

Sophia tested their talents with a crystal ball, and only the eldest son of the second uncle, Adrian, reached four points in mental power.

But his elemental affinity is average, although it's a pity that he learned magic, and I'm afraid he didn't develop very well.

Even if you work diligently all your life, it is estimated that it will be difficult to break through to the fourth ring.

Adrian is one year younger than Richard and will be twenty years old after Christmas. He broke through as a high-level warrior student last fall. His warrior talent is about the same as Hayden's, considered above average, and slightly better than his eldest brother Ron.

Now that magic talent has been detected, his energy must be allocated to the magic field.

Whether he liked magic or not, the Harland family was extremely lacking in magical power.

As a member of an aristocratic family, when necessary, one must sacrifice one's hobbies, even freedom, and marriage to contribute to the family.

Adrian has graduated from the Knight Academy and is preparing to join the Mad Lion Legion as a junior officer.

Now that the magic talent has been detected, it is impossible for the family to let him join the army.

After Christmas, I have to learn the method of meditation, and I am temporarily incorporated into the No. Squadron as a grassroots officer.

After getting the Breathing Technique of the Mad Lion Legion, Richard quickly completed the advancement.

This time the warrior advanced, he did not choose to add killing experience.

Three months ago, Richard was not far away from becoming a warrior, with only a difference of 2400 experience points.

He continued to practice the breathing method for three months, and as early as November, he had completed his experience.

After getting the follow-up breathing method, Li Cha did not take any medicine, and was promoted to the fourth level smoothly.

After being promoted to the fourth rank, Li Cha's attribute panel changed.

Strength increased by 3 points, agility increased by 0.2 points, physical strength increased by 0.3 points, and mental strength also increased by 0.3 points.

In addition, in three months, Li Cha also learned a second-ring magic defensive arrow.

Li Cha is a double-cultivator in magic and martial arts, a fourth-level fighter, and a fourth-ring magician. His real combat power may be stronger than that of his father William.

The power of the Haaland family has grown tremendously in the past year.

After Richard married Sophia, he took control of three baronies. Although they belonged to three people in name, they had not yet been merged. William is an officer in the Northern Army, and Sophia is devoted to studying magic. In fact, Richard is in charge of everything.

According to the progress this year, the construction of Sophia Castle was completed in summer, and the construction of Iron Mountain Fort also started.

Powell knocked on the door and entered the room after hearing Richard's answer.

The room is hung with thick curtains, which are only opened when the light shines in at noon, and the windows are opened for ventilation.

Although Christmas has passed, it is still winter, and the windows are still hung with thick animal skins.

The territory cannot produce large pieces of transparent glass, so it can only keep warm in winter.

Although the fireplace is burning and the sun has not been seen for a long time, the house is still a bit dark, and some mildew spots often grow.

"Uncle Powell, I bought some elf black tea at Black River Fort before Christmas, and sat down to taste a little."

Li Cha poured Powell a cup of elf black tea.

Chenxi Continent also has the habit of drinking tea, but the tea trees in this world are somewhat different from those Li Cha had seen in his previous life.

Living in Grant Kingdom for many years, Richard has only seen one type of black tea.

This kind of black tea is also a first-level magic plant. It has a very rich taste, some bitter, some sour, and some sweet.

Drinking this kind of tea often can slightly improve mental strength, and can also make people fall asleep quickly.

This kind of black tea also has medicinal value and can treat some diseases such as dementia.

The first people to pick this kind of tea were the elves in the Eastern Continent. Later, the elven black tea was successfully domesticated by magicians and transplanted in magic plantations. It was only in the past few hundred years that it spread to the aristocratic circles.

Because it is a magical plant, the price of elf black tea is very high, and a catty of elf black tea costs eight gold coins.

Recently, the income of Harland's territory has increased greatly, and Richard only bought a few catties.It also needs to be supplied to Sophia, Wendy, and Adrian. If the four magicians drink black tea every day, the annual consumption of gold coins will exceed .

This expenditure is also a big burden for the Harland family, which is currently in embarrassment.

However, drinking elf black tea often is good for magicians. Even if they save money in other areas, the investment in black tea cannot be reduced.

Strength in the Northern Xinjiang region is everything, as long as it can increase the power of the family, it is worth investing resources in.
