Reincarnation of Soul Cultivation 2

The ghost ship that Klein and Barton were on broke through the ice. At this time, they could still go fishing in the south, but in the northern Principality of Noel, the sea had already been frozen and sealed.

The Principality of Noel has also set up a port near the sea, which is convenient for fishermen and merchants to travel by sea, but that is when the weather is warm.

In this kind of cold winter, even the sea is frozen, fishermen can no longer go to sea, and even sea merchants no longer travel by boat, so there are almost no people around the port.

It was precisely because of knowing this that Klein dared to command the ghost ship to dock at the port.

However, he was blinded as soon as he landed, because the weather was too cold. After breaking away from the barrier in the ghost ship, and suddenly appearing in the cold outside environment, Klein shivered and sneezed involuntarily.

Fortunately, the butler Barton had already prepared for it. A fur cloak and thick leather boots suitable for this cold weather had already been prepared in the storage bag.

Klein and Button changed into their winter clothes, let out a breath, and then began to trek in the snow.

The port was empty, so the taboo of the ghost ship could appear without any scruples, but it was also because of this that Klein would never be able to find a convenient means of transportation such as a merchant's carriage.

Fortunately, from the map, there is a small city about three kilometers away from the port. Klein and Barton can only walk on two legs.

Because they were worried about bumping into people, when Klein and Barton left the ghost ship, their genius was dim.After tossing around for a while, the sky gradually brightened. By the time Klein and Barton approached the city, the sky was already bright, and there were already guards on duty at the gate of the city. It seemed that people in the city had already gotten up and moved around.

After Barton paid the entrance fee for two people at the city gate, Klein and Barton set foot in the city.

Because it was winter, there were no people on the street, but smoke from chimneys on many roofs let people know that there were people living in many houses.The whole city is covered in snow-carved silver, and the original background color of the city cannot be seen, but it looks very clean and beautiful.

Klein and Barton's leather boots creaked as they stepped on the snow. They didn't meet any pedestrians on the road, so they couldn't find anyone to ask for directions.Fortunately, this is only a small city, and the business district in the city center is easy to find. When Klein and Barton were about to freeze, they finally found a hotel.

After asking for the best room and breakfast, Klein could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Staying outside in this cold weather was a pain, and his ears felt like they were freezing.

The Duke of Elton's mansion is in the middle of the Principality of Knoll. To get there, they need a carriage or other means of transportation. It is impossible for them to walk there.So they will rest in this city for a few days, buy carriages, stoves, charcoal fires and other items.Traveling between the cities of the Principality of Noel, unless you encounter human bandits, there will be no major dangers such as alien races and monsters.

Barton has always lived in the south and has never been to the north, so he is not used to the northern weather. After settling down in the hotel, he caught wind and cold.They had no choice but to stay in the hotel to recuperate, waiting for Barton to recover before heading on their way.

Klein is a necromancer, and from the moment he became a necromancer, he never had the opportunity to touch or learn any natural magic.There are many classifications in natural magic. In addition to the common attack and defense magic, there are also more partial prophecy magic, healing magic, and so on.A powerful wizard can use magic to solve all the problems encountered in life.

But there is no such good thing in undead magic, so there is nothing he can do when he encounters Barton or his own illness.Considering the existence of the gods, he did not dare to take out the spiritual spring or the healing medicine in the artifact for others to use.I could only watch Barton slowly heal his body while eating the bitter herbal medicine.

Of course, undead magic is not without advantages, that is, it consumes extremely little magic power. If there are a lot of dead bodies in a cemetery or a battlefield, it can be used as a hundred, and one person can form an army.The last thing that undead magic is afraid of is consumption.However, natural magic is limited by the magic power and spiritual power of the wizard himself. The magic that a wizard can use every day is limited. A wizard who has exhausted his magic power will have no combat power at all.

Barton is not used to the climate in the north, but Klein likes living in the north. He likes snow, and he also likes life with distinct climates in four seasons.

It's a pity that there are not only snow-white beauty in winter.The heavy snow in winter also blocked roads between nearby cities. The snow layer was half a person's height. Before the snow melted in spring, even if Barton's wind and cold recovered, they would still be temporarily trapped in this city.

In fact, there are many solutions to problems in Klein's artifact. If he uses the flying boat, he will be able to reach Duke Elton's castle in no time.It's a pity that Klein never planned to use the function of the divine tool in this world because he was afraid of the existence of gods and demons who could spy on the soul in this world.Then he can only choose to use ordinary methods to solve the problems he encounters.

For example, at this moment, because the road was blocked by heavy snow, he could only honestly wait for the arrival of spring.

Barton suggested renting a house in this city, and buying a few slaves, because the food in the hotel was really rough, and because fish and dragons were mixed together, it was not very safe to live in.

Klein thought about it, and felt that instead of renting a house, it would be better to directly buy a house in the city.

Because there is a port near this city, as a necromancer, he needs a suitable place to practice undead magic.Undead magic will bring a negative energy field, and this negative energy field is harmful to the living creatures around, so Klein must not be able to gather in the crowd to practice, even if it is in his own house, then Klein cannot harm himself around him man!

So Klein can only find places that are inaccessible, or take a ghost ship to go to sea, because living near the port is still a better choice.

And even if he has a formal noble status in the Principality of Noel, Klein still needs his own source of money.As a well-informed person, he naturally knows that although land is a stable property that can preserve its value, in this society of serfs and hired farmers, the output of the land will not be too much, and it is faster to make money from business.Now there is a port near this city, and the butler Barton also has experience in running caravans and fleets. In the future, their family will be able to operate merchant ships again. With the secret escort of him driving a ghost ship, there will be no danger of natural disasters at sea. Greatly reduced, transactions from south to north, one trip will have several times the profit, and this will be the bulk of the family's financial income.

Originally, Klein thought that he would not enter the mainstream upper-class society, and he had no intention of continuing the family. His own material desires were not high, so he had no intention of running a family business.

Everything is different now. His father Kevin found him a noble status. He will marry a wife and have children in the future to continue the family, so he always needs to accumulate some family property for his children and grandchildren.

After discussing with the butler Barton, Barton went out to search for it, bought a single-family villa and manor, and bought a maid and slave to take care of it before Klein moved in from the hotel. .

While Klein was in the house, his father Kevin quietly came to the door.

This was the first time Klein saw Kevin after he was defeated in the "Dark Castle". Before, there was only news and letters.Even knowing that he was an undead lich, Klein was not unconcerned. Seeing that Kevin was doing well, he was also relieved.

Kevin's letter asked Klein to come to the Duke of Knoll to find Duke Elton, but he did not elaborate on his relationship with Duke Elton, or any specific transactions, so Klein was quite uncertain about facing Elton himself. Duke's attitude.

"Elton and I met during our travels and adventures when we were young. At that time, I was just a low-level wizard, and Elton hadn't inherited the family business. At that time, we experienced many things together. A life-and-death relationship. But then Elton returned to the north to inherit the family business, and I also started a family in the south, because the distance is far away, so there are fewer contacts. But Elton is someone I can trust, and at the same time, we also have some transactions, It is an alliance of interests, and I can rest assured that you will settle down in the Principality of Noel, and at the same time, Elton can also rest assured."

Kevin and Klein talked late at night, and Kevin left Klein a lot of books and gold coins, and left in the night.

These books are all books related to magic knowledge.The difference from the past is that they are all natural magic books.This is also a matter of course. If Klein has children and grandchildren, then of course it is impossible for them to continue learning undead magic. As nobles, if they want to stay in the mainstream society for a long time, of course it is best not to become a heretic in the eyes of the church forces of various gods. With their family background of legendary wizards, it is the best choice for future generations to become natural wizards.

After talking with Kevin, he also figured out the aristocratic relationship in the Duchy of Noel.Because the Principality of Nuoer is located in the extreme north of the continent, one quarter to one third of the year is extremely cold. No matter what kind of crops, they can only produce one season.There are no valuable minerals or specialties in the Principality of Nuoer.It is a rather barren place on the continent.Therefore, apart from the family of Duke Elton, there are no other great nobles.Except for a few distant relatives of the Duke of Elton's family, most of the aristocratic class is the class of military knights conferred by the Duke of Elton in the past.The Duchy of Knoll can be regarded as a place with relatively simple aristocratic relations, and it can be said that it is the only one family of the Duke of Elton.

When Klein came to the Principality of Knoll, he also obtained a minor title as a distant relative of Duke Elton.There aren't so many aristocratic confrontations here, or dance parties and singing and dancing every night.Because it is located in the extreme north of the mainland, there are foreign wars against the snow werewolves and other intelligent races every year, so there is no situation of slack in armaments here. The aristocratic class of military knight origin attaches great importance to personal force, and interpersonal communication is relatively simple.

Klein felt that this place was very suitable for him.

However, because the identity of the necromancer cannot be revealed, the impression he gave to the outside world is probably a little white-faced nobleman with no force value.
