Chapter 167

Ren groped for a moment for each of the three pieces of equipment.

He moved so many books in the Silver Star Great Library. When he was still in Longshande, he used to read books to learn rune knowledge by himself when he was free. He asked Viola for advice and mastered the preliminary identification ability.

The first is the staff. The main material is the heart of the Mingfeng wood. The whole is light blue in color. Can feel the presence of wind elements around.

There is a line of small text on the body of the staff, which reads: Wand of Hurricane.

Ren identified the function of this hurricane wand, which comes with a five-ring "hurricane", which is a large-scale destructive spell that can be cast three times a day.

The spellcaster holding the hurricane wand can gain the affinity of the wind element, and increase the power when casting wind spells.

Finally, this staff has the effect of speeding up the casting of spells, regardless of the type, all spells below the sixth ring can get a 10% speedup!

The superposition of the three enchantments makes this hurricane wand one of the best wands.

"What a fine staff!"

"No wonder Mytil's spellcasting speed is so fast."

Ren sighed in admiration. It is indeed a legendary wizard's weapon. Even among the best enchanted equipment, the Hurricane Wand is the top. If it can be improved, it may even become an epic weapon with a certain probability.

Of course, this probability is very low.

Even so, the Wand of Hurricane is also the staff that casters dream of, especially the Wind Elementalist, which can be called tailor-made.

Putting down the hurricane wand, Ren picked up a ring inlaid with purple diamonds.

He recognized it as a Soul Diamond.

The soul diamond is a very special gem. After being transformed by an alchemist, it can be used to store soul power and be made into a soul ring.

This ring is undoubtedly a soul storage ring.

Ren tried it out and found that this soul storage ring has a huge reserve, which cannot be filled with his current soul power. After some calculations, it should be able to store one-third of the soul power of a tenth-level legendary wizard.

This is a very astonishing reserve. After wearing it, it is equivalent to increasing a lot of soul power in the air, greatly extending the combat endurance of the caster.

Ren decided to keep it for his own use, and immediately put it on his hand.

The last ring was what he was looking forward to the most.

The silver ring body looks a little ordinary, like a metal ring made of mithril, and its weight can hardly be felt. Inside the ring, there is a circle of purple runes connected end to end, with a dim glimmer.

Ren carefully identified it for a while, and probably saw the way of the rune.

Obviously, this is a ring with dimensional space.

Dimensional space is a six-ring arcane technique. By keeping it constant on the carrier, an independent dimensional space can be created for storing items.

Constant spell is an extremely superb skill, the higher the ring number, the greater the difficulty.

Six-ring arcane art, which can only be achieved by a master alchemist, has extremely high requirements on materials. The value of any space ring is far above the best equipment, comparable to epic equipment.

Ren put on the dimensional ring and concentrated, and an irregular and strange space immediately appeared in his mind.

The space is five feet square, converted to about three cubic meters.

There are many things stored in it.

Ren made an inventory of books, potions, scrolls, alchemy materials, a few seals, and some food and daily necessities.

These are Maitre's belongings.

Among them were a small pile of gold shields, more than 2,000 in number, and a stack of gold tickets, all with a face value of 100 gold, and there were hundreds of them in total.

"I'll go, get rich!"

Ren was pleasantly surprised. The legendary wizard's net worth was indeed different, with more than 10,000 gold in cash alone.

The most valuable thing is the ring itself.

This kind of space ring has always had a price but no market, and there is no place to buy it if you have money. Even the ring with the smallest space can sell for a sky-high price of 40,000 to 50,000 gold shields.

However, Ryan never thought about selling.

He had envied Viola's necklace for a long time, it was very convenient to use.

Now I finally have one.

Ren was wearing the ring happily, and tried to put various things into the ring in the study, then took it out again, cleaned up some Mattier's things, cleared the space, and finally put the Rambo gun in.

Rambo's gun weighs more than two hundred pounds, and it actually takes up very little space. It is not a problem to put five or six guns in.

After entertaining myself for a while, there were footsteps outside the door.

"Your Excellency." The wind spirit Fabian knocked on the door and came in, holding a plate of sumptuous food on the table, and respectfully said: "This is the dinner I asked the chef to cook for adults, please enjoy it."

"Well, you have a heart."

Ren nodded with a smile, and quietly opened the eyes of the soul to observe Fabian's soul, making sure that he had no other intentions and that the food was fine.

He quickly wiped out the dinner, and Fabian Cheng stood by his side to serve.

This wind elf has learned the essentials of serving superiors, and he has a good grasp of the scale. He will neither be too close to hinder the meal, nor make Ren feel that he is just putting on a show. Everything is just right.

If you don't look at Bi'an's appearance, Ren will definitely mistake him for a human being who has been a housekeeper for many years.

After taking the glass from Fabian and taking two sips of red wine, Ren glanced at him and said, "Fabian, what do you want to say?"

"Your Excellency saw it."

Fabian bowed politely, then took out an account book from his arms, and handed it over: "This is the asset list in the castle. I have already counted it. Please have a look."

"So fast?" Ren was a little surprised at the work efficiency of the wind elves.

He took the ledger and started flipping through it.

The above content is not much, only a few pages, but it lists the assets of the castle in detail, including the population, food reserves, furniture, horses, cash stocks, etc., each of which is clear, and even the castle's later. Proposals and budgets for repairs, hiring, and more.

After reading this ledger, Ren was very satisfied. This is a talent!

With a smile on his face, he praised without hesitation: "Fabian, you did a great job."

"Serving the Earl, this is what I should do." Fabian stood up quickly, with a humble expression on his face.

Ren's soul eyes saw that the wind elves were humble on the surface and did not dare to take credit, but in fact they were very proud of themselves.

This is an ambitious person, no wonder he dared to take the lead in surrendering himself.

He smiled secretly and asked, "With your working ability, why did you just work as a tax adjutant before?"

Fabian's face was slightly startled, and it took a few seconds before he replied: "I entered Bishui High Castle to work more than 20 years ago, and served three managers, but I am an elf, so..."

He didn't say any more, the meaning was obvious.

Ren nodded suddenly.

The elves once ruled most of the world of Arrenus, but that was a very ancient history, thousands of years ago, and now the elves have retreated to the far western continent, and the glory of the past has long been lost.

Now is the era of human beings, and elves are just a foreign race to people.

Most elves are stronger than ordinary people. People envy them for their long lifespan and beautiful appearance. They can often be seen in the empire, and there is not much sense of mystery.

The elves' attitude towards humans has always been arrogant and difficult to get along with.

Humans also don't like elves to blend into their own world, maybe they can work together, but the difference in appearance always reminds people that elves are not their own kind.

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

Allenus does not have this sentence, but has a similar reason.

To put it bluntly, it is actually racial segregation. Not to mention on the surface, but in actual work there is an invisible glass ceiling.

Unless they possess extremely strong power, it is difficult for ordinary elves to climb to a high position in the human kingdom.

Fabian's strength is good, but he can only be regarded as a middle-level magic swordsman. The nobles of Mordu will not take him too seriously, and they may be defensive.

Ren closed the account book, straightened his body, and said seriously: "Fabian, with me, I only look at ability, not background. As long as you work hard, I will not treat you badly."

Fabian froze for a moment.

Because Ren said the above words in Elvish language.

"Lord Earl..." Fabian was very excited, raised his right hand and made a strange gesture, and said solemnly: "In the name of the moon god Elna, I, Fabian*, sing lightly, and I wish to sing for Gra Earl Morgan offers my loyalty and strength, and will never betray."

It is a very formal oath to swear by one's faith. Although there will be no real loss after breaking it, very few people violate the oath of faith in Allen Erth.

Ren saw that the fire of Fabian's soul was beating, without a single false word.

He also stood up and responded, "I accept your allegiance."

After the oath, Fabian was overjoyed, feeling that his relationship with the Earl was getting closer, and he completely regarded him as his own.

"Okay, sit down and talk."

Ren had already seen that Fabian had something to say, and it wasn't as simple as sending the ledger.

Fabian pondered for a moment, "Sir, if you want to control the territory, it is useless to occupy the High Castle of Bishui, you need more manpower, not only to protect yourself, prevent the enemy's counterattack and assassination, but also clear the territory Various forces in the city, especially the two docks, where the guarding strength is not much worse than that of the castle."

Ren nodded, he had considered this issue.

You don't have to worry about your own safety, as long as the council of six doesn't take action, and Oxilia is secretly protecting you, there will be no problem.

The main thing is to find someone to rule the territory, and a team of silver knights is far from enough.

Without the backing of private armed forces, how to collect taxes in the territory?

He could ask the Duke of Silver Star for help and send a few teams of Silver Knights over, but this would take time, and doing so would be equivalent to leading wolves into the house. It would be very difficult to refuse the Duke of Silver Star to intervene in the affairs of the Glamorgan Territory in the future.

"What's your idea?" Ryan asked.

Fabian expressed his thoughts: "Your Excellency may not know that there is the largest talent market in Modu in the territory, gathering a large number of superhumans and alien masters, and there are many adventure groups and mercenary groups. As long as you have money, even Legendary powerhouses can be hired."
