Emperor of Arcane

No matter how big or small, every ogre is a big eater.

Fortunately, they are not picky eaters, and they happily eat the marching rations carried by the soldiers.

There were happy expressions and smiles on their faces, and everyone could feel the real joy.

However, the brutal appearance of the ogres fighting still reminded everyone.

No matter how gentle you are while eating, you can't forget their ferocious side.

What is interesting to everyone is that the female ogre takes very good care of her young.

If there is food, give it to them first. When they are full, surround them in the safest place and eat later.

Then, the female ogres fought with each other for food, which surprised people again.

A lazy and cruel creature, a complex contradiction!

Matthew naturally knew what was going on. The love and care for the cubs was engraved in the ogre's genes and instincts.

The other two are more affected by an average intelligence of less than 5 points.

A smart little guy like Yagron might not be able to produce even one out of 100,000 ogres.

Yagron's eyes widened and he looked curiously at Jifan in front of him.

There was a faint smile on the latter's face, and he was holding a small dried fish that he liked very much in his hand!

Why does Yagron like it?

Because he just tasted it!

"fish!"

Jifan pointed to the dried fish in his hand and spoke slowly.

Smacking his lips gently, savoring the delicious and sweet taste of the dried fish, Yagron tried his best to open his mouth and spoke a half-baked common language:

"Xu..."

"fish!"

"Xu..."

"fish!"

"fish!"

Under Yagron's surprised gaze, Jifan happily handed the dried fish to his hand.

Watching him eat it in one bite and chew it carefully, Jifan took out another piece of black bread from his backpack.

He did this not for fun, but as a task assigned to him by the mysterious Arcanist!

Meticulous Ji Fan is determined to seize this opportunity!

Not only for himself, but also for his sister!

Although the hope is slim, Jifan will never give up easily!

"Find out how big this konjac area is, and arrange manpower to patrol it."

"Be especially careful in the direction of the troll camp. If there is any big movement, report it to me in time."

Matthew gave Alice a few words of advice, walked into the tent that had been set up, and quickly sat down cross-legged.

Start meditating!

The method of restoring the mana of the phantom clone is almost the same as that of the main body. Without the threat of battle, meditation is the best choice to restore the mana.

This is why the arcanist path was developed.

By virtue of the method of restoring mana, the arcanist has a sustained combat capability that far exceeds that of other spellcasters such as mages, and is no longer limited by the number of spell slots!

What surprised Matthew was that the feeling of the phantom clone during meditation was no different from the original body.

While restoring mana, it can also increase the experience of meditation skills.

Then, a "ridiculous" idea flashed through Matthew's mind:

"When I am not projecting consciousness, the phantom clone can also act independently..."

"Then, before I cancel the consciousness projection, will I give the phantom clone the command to meditate..."

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed that it was possible. Matthew decisively gave the phantom clone a meditation prompt and then withdrew the consciousness projection.

After passing through a period of darkness, Matthew felt his body again, and his consciousness returned to its original form.

Just as he wanted to see the status of the phantom clone, the digital display responded.

"Phantom clone:

Status: During meditation, 4 mana points are restored every minute.

Health: 33/33, Mana, 45/270. "

It actually works!

Matthew rubbed his hands very happily. He immediately realized the benefits of the fantasy clone being able to meditate independently to restore mana!

Double the mana, cycle through spell-casting training, and gain double the proficiency!

The phantom clone is located in the Troll Valley, and Matthew is in charge of the territory.

Dual-line operation, double the happiness!

It's noon.

Matthew had a meal first, checked Lianna's homework, answered some questions for her, and then assigned new tasks.

It happened that Butler Ralph came to report, and when Matthew told him about the situation in Troll Valley, he was suddenly surprised and said:

"Destroyed an ogre camp? And captured some ogre cubs as prisoners? This is really great!"

"If possible, we can establish a stronghold like a lumber camp there and try to tame those ogres..."

No wonder Butler Ralph is so happy, it is actually the kobolds subdued by Yaya who have made great contributions to the construction and development of Bay Village!

They built the gravel roads, dug the water diversion ditches, and made the sewers. The quality is quite good and the speed is very fast.

It saves Bay Village a lot of manpower, material and financial resources.

Moreover, the kobolds, under Matthew's instructions, have begun to dig the kobold mines.

The kobolds also smuggled the excavated ore into the warehouse through underground tunnels.

These ores have not been made into weapons for the time being, but are used to make various agricultural tools that are in increasing demand.

Kobolds are very inconspicuous, but very important!

The only weakness of kobolds is that their combat power is too weak, and only a very small number of them can become dragonborn.

And now, the lord has captured the ogre again.

This is a creature with quite powerful combat power, which can just make up for the lack of development of the Gulf Territory's combat power!

How could this not excite Butler Ralph?

Matthew is not so optimistic. He is very aware of the shortcomings of the ogres. It is not easy to cure their lazy and irritable character.

However, compared to the chaotic and violent gnolls who worship the moon, the ogres are indeed much easier to deal with.

We need to find a good "instructor" for them!

With this thought in his mind, Matthew suddenly remembered something and asked:

"What about Adam Smith?"

Eliminating the ogre camp only reduced the luck value from -3 to -2. The crisis was not completely over yet.

But Matthew already had preparations and goals. After so many days, he naturally wanted to know about Adam Smith's situation.

Butler Ralph frowned and replied hesitantly:

"Adam Smith responded two days ago. He had a conflict with some businessmen, but he was not in danger. The clay golem and soldiers played a big role."

"However, Adam Smith suspected that the other party might not give up."

"He sent me a message. The supplies have been collected. Do you want to take the risk and send them back?"

Don’t give up?

The other party will definitely launch an attack!

The battle is inevitable!

"The fish is hooked!"

Various thoughts flashed through Matthew's mind, and a little chill appeared in his dark eyes. He sneered and said:

"Inform Adam Smith and ask him to wait five days before leaving."

"Let's prepare well and give them a surprise!"
