This crazy wizard is quite stable
Chapter 151 Curious Baby
Chapter 151 Curious Baby
Azshara didn’t know much about the Kingdom of Itra, because Isaac’s intelligence system was almost nonexistent at present. Even with the help of the family shadow guards, their family didn’t know much about foreign intelligence.
The Shadow Guard mainly collects intelligence within the empire and in the wilderness, and his understanding of foreign countries is only slightly more than Isaac.
So after so much time had passed, Isaac didn’t know much about the Kingdom of Itra.
However, this did not affect his rough speculation about the uprising in the Kingdom of Itra!
This thing is definitely not normal!
Isaac was no stranger to uprising. After all, he had learned a lot about it in his previous life.
In his previous life, the root cause of all uprisings was that the lower class people could no longer make ends meet!
Don’t worry about whether someone deliberately instigated an uprising with ulterior motives. In short, once an uprising occurs, the people at the bottom will definitely not be able to survive. Otherwise, it will just be a simple rebellion.
In this world, the situation is similar, except that there is an additional factor of supernatural power, which means that the uprising may be caused by bad guys using magic to control the lower class people.
But no matter what kind of uprising it was, the uprising in Ithra was definitely not normal!
After all, this uprising happens once a year. How could it be so frequent under normal circumstances?
If the cause of the uprising was the former, then the people of the Kingdom of Ithra would have died out in a few years. After all, war kills people, and so do hard times. If the cause of the uprising was the latter…
That’s even more strange. Every year, someone comes to plan an uprising. Are the leaders of the Ithra Kingdom all idiots? Don’t they have any precautions?
But if we look at it from the perspective of conspiracy theory or ritual, it becomes much easier to explain.
Not to mention conspiracy theories, the Kingdom of Ithra still has a lot of rare renewable resources like the Kaleidoscope Eye. It is difficult to buy them normally and they are very expensive, but if they are used to help the royal family of Ithra overcome “difficulties”, it will be much easier to obtain them.
Isaac also tends to prefer this possibility, because according to the intelligence he collected, the Kingdom of Itra would mobilize people for every uprising, and those few precious renewable resources would basically be in the open treasury.
Isaac absolutely didn’t believe that this was just a coincidence.
But the ritual is not impossible, because there are indeed several countries in the world that hold rituals specifically for legendary wizards!
It has become an industry!
Maybe Ithra is the same way?
But you will know the specific situation when you go there!
Isaac put away the magic book, stood up and left the laboratory, and called everyone to gather in the meeting room. It was time to set off.
In the meeting room, Isaac gave a brief account of the situation and then began to assign personnel. Now that the number of people has gradually increased, the territory no longer needs to mobilize all its forces unless it is necessary.
In addition to the inconvenience caused by the large population, some industries have begun to emerge in the territory and need someone to protect them.
Although this is the heartland of Solomon and is theoretically safe, it can only prevent large-scale invasions and is completely useless against petty thefts.
“Holy Lord, you stay in the territory and continue to train the secret magicians. Don’t forget to train yourself. When you come back, you can start trying to devour the dimensional magic.”
“Yes, Master.”
“Liuli, I need you to supervise the construction of the Mage Tower. If you have any questions, please contact me directly through telepathy. At the same time, build the defensive barrier.”
“I understand, Master.”
“Smith, come with me to the Kingdom of Itra. Shushu will stay in the territory to continue studying your necromancy and complete the construction of the tactical system as soon as possible. As for you…” After assigning his own people, Isaac looked at Rona and asked, “We will definitely need to fight when we go to the Kingdom of Itra this time. Do you want to go?”
“Hey? Can I go?” Hearing Isaac’s question, Rona, who was sitting next to him, was a little confused. She pointed at herself and was full of doubts. “Is it appropriate for me to participate in such an important matter?”
“There’s nothing inappropriate about it, and it’s not an important matter. Of course, if you don’t want to go, that’s fine. You can stay with Liuli to set up the defensive barrier.”
“I’ll go!” Upon hearing this, Rona immediately agreed.
Firstly, she felt that she had just joined, and as a newcomer, it was very important to avoid suspicion. Things like setting up defensive barriers were definitely not allowed, as that was too tactless!
When she was working part-time, she was fired many times because she saw things that shouldn’t have been done.
Secondly…
Although it felt a bit nonsensical, she was quite afraid of Liuli. She felt that Liuli seemed to be hostile to her!
The reason why I used the word “seems” is because up to now, Liuli has not done anything against her, and he has the same expression towards her and other people.
But her intuition told her that Liuli was hostile to her!
“Okay, then pack up and get ready to go.”
“Hmm?” Seeing Isaac looking at her, Rona blinked and said, “I can leave at any time. I don’t have anything to prepare. I have all my weapons with me!”
After saying that, she stood up and proudly drew out the iron sword that was at her waist.
“Ah~” Isaac held his forehead and couldn’t help but sigh. That’s why we need to prepare…
But thinking of her limited knowledge, it would probably be the same if she went to the lake town again, so Isaac waved his hand and said to Smith, “Smith, take her to buy a set of equipment. Just buy her a battle mage suit.”
“Yes, Master.” Smith bowed slightly, then looked at Rona with a smile, “Miss Rona, please follow me.”
“Oh… no need for that? I think what I have on is enough.” Rona didn’t know whether she didn’t want to spend more of Isaac’s money or she simply didn’t know much about equipment. She frowned as she looked at the leather armor on her body and said.
“Go buy a set. What you’re wearing… doesn’t look like the equipment of a noble. Although you’re not a noble, I am. If you go out with me, you represent my reputation. If you’re dressed too poorly, I’ll be very distressed.”
Although they had not been together for a long time, Isaac had already simply summed up a set of ways to get along with Rona. This girl had completely different attitudes towards him and towards others.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Rona’s expression changed. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded to Smith: “Thank you for your help, Mr. Smith.”
“This is what I should do. Please follow me.” Smith bowed with a smile, and then walked out of the meeting room with Rona. After they left, Isaac made some more detailed arrangements for Liuli and others, especially for Shushu. It was not easy for Shushu to build his own tactical system.
Because it is a standard mage profession from Isaac’s previous life that couldn’t be more standard – fragile!
Very crispy!
Crunchier than Isaac!
Isaac just lacks defensive means. He is actually quite strong, but he cannot compare with a melee fighter. However, Rat has an innate racial disadvantage. Not only does he lack defensive means, but his body is also fragile!
The most crucial thing is that necromancy spells themselves are not easy to find, especially many of its concepts are in conflict with the Sect of Flesh and Blood, so Isaac can’t help it in this regard.
At least it can’t help now, it can only rely on itself.
Because the materials for the evil god transaction ritual related to the dead have not been collected yet…
Therefore, it can only develop its tactical system by itself. Of course, it is unrealistic to rely entirely on itself. Isaac sometimes also assists from the side. After all, although Isaac has not learned necromancy, he has obtained relevant taboo knowledge from the God of Black Orcs.
Besides, it was Isaac who passed on Shushu’s knowledge of the dead. With his intelligence, he should have no problem assisting Shushu.
Not long after, Smith came back with a somewhat embarrassed Rona.
At this time, Rona had changed her extremely cheap leather armor and put on a brown windbreaker-like outfit. Although it had a longer back, it had a special spell effect attached to it, which would not affect her flexibility in battle.
This is the most commonly used style for battle mages. There are multiple pockets on the inside of the clothes, which can hold many small weapons or spellcasting materials. Although the overall structure is mainly made of fabric, its defense against physical attacks is no worse than that of a knight’s armor.
As for magic resistance, there is no need to mention it.
In addition to this dress, the long sword hanging on Rona’s waist and the dagger on her thigh have also been upgraded. The dagger looks ordinary and has no special features, so Isaac doesn’t know what’s special about it, but since Smith bought it together, it must be better than the original one.
As for the long sword, Isaac recognized it because he had known about this series of weapons before!
The difference between the overall appearance of the longsword and the knight’s longsword lies in the magic gem on the hilt. Yes, it also has the function of a staff. The academic name of this type of weapon is a staff sword, and it is also a weapon exclusively used by combat mages.
It can be used for melee combat as well as spellcasting, and it has the power of both.
It fits Isaac’s aesthetic perfectly, but unfortunately, this thing requires a talent for melee combat, and also requires a lot of hard training and actual combat, both of which Isaac unfortunately cannot satisfy. He doesn’t even have enough time to study magic, so how can he have the energy to devote to melee combat training?
It would be fine if the melee mage was very strong, but it is not that strong, especially getting weaker as time goes on.
Because human energy is limited, you can’t keep up with spell research while maintaining sufficient combat training, so the battle mage has always been a relatively unpopular faction, and the later it gets, the weaker it becomes…
They are not as good as knights in melee combat, and not as good as pure wizards in spells. It is just a faction of faith for some enthusiasts.
“Well, it fits me well. I should have changed into this outfit a long time ago.” Looking at the heroic Rona, Isaac nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing Isaac’s satisfied look, Smith behind Rona also showed a satisfied look. Very good, it seems there is hope.
But compared with the master and servant, Rona was not very satisfied. Her white and tender hands were intertwined in front of her belly, and she frowned cutely and said, “But this is too expensive! Do you know? It costs nearly 10,000 gold coins for these!”
“Hey~ Money is nothing but a thing… Huh? What did you say? Ten thousand gold coins?!” Isaac was about to be generous, but when he came to his senses, he widened his eyes and looked at Smith. What’s going on? Equipment worth ten thousand gold coins? He was still wearing the novice suit when he first became a legendary wizard!
Smith spread his hands helplessly and said, “Master, it’s 10,000 gold coins. The main reason is that there are not many equipments for battle mages. Only this set is suitable. There is also a cheaper set and a more expensive one. The cheaper one is 500 gold coins and the quality is very average. The expensive one… 3 million gold coins, we can’t afford it…”
Isaac: “…”
Is this the wizard?
He now has a deeper understanding of this word. It seems that he needs to master the alchemy skill as soon as possible!
You see, this is how the market for wizard products became so corrupt.
“Oh~” Isaac sighed and waved his hands. He had already bought it, so let it be. After all, he was a man with a net worth of tens of millions. Ten thousand gold coins were just a drop in the bucket. He should adjust his mindset as soon as possible!
“That’s it, stand up, it’s time to go.”
Hearing this, Smith and Rona, who still looked conflicted, walked behind Isaac.
After the two men stood still, faint spatial ripples appeared behind them and slowly swallowed them up.
Phase space·Phase shift!
Countless lights and shadows flashed before their eyes. When their vision returned, the three of them had already left the Terra Empire and arrived at the gate of the Itra Royal City.
“Let’s go, first let’s find a place to stay, and then go meet two acquaintances.” Isaac glanced inside the royal city, raised his eyebrows slightly, and walked in with Smith and Rona, who was full of surprise.
Following Isaac, Rona looked around curiously. She had never been to such a big city. Is this the royal capital of a country?
Amazing!
In fact, Rona was not only curious about the royal city, she was also curious about Isaac’s space magic. Although she didn’t know how far the Kingdom of Itra was from the Terra Empire, based on her wandering experience over the years, she knew that as long as she went abroad, it must be very far away!
And Isaac didn’t even feel embarrassed or nervous when he moved such a long distance, especially with two people involved. This is not an ordinary space spell!
In addition to magic, Rona was also curious about the “acquaintance” Isaac mentioned. Although he was an acquaintance, there was a hint of playfulness in Isaac’s tone, which was obviously not the kind of acquaintance she understood.
However, although she was curious about everything like a curious baby, Rona did not ask. Well, she was embarrassed to ask.
In this way, after showing the noble medal and the magic book of the Flesh and Blood Sect to the guard at the city gate, Isaac successfully brought Smith and Rona to an inn.
A rather special hotel – Terra Lodge.
After Isaac officially completed the check-in procedures, the person who had been secretly watching them since they entered the city left.
“It seems like he left?” Rona said uncertainly.
It’s not that her perception is bad, but she doesn’t quite understand. The person behind the scenes has been following them since they entered the city, so why did he suddenly disappear now?
This doesn’t make sense. Did they do something to reassure the other party?
“Yes, he has left.” Isaac smiled and shook the three room cards in his hand.
