From Baron to Lord

Tasmiz, however, showed little interest in Jackson.

But at least it was a start.

It was late at night when Allen brought Jackson back to the royal capital.

He instructed Jackson to come over one day each week so that he could take him to see the Steel Dragon Tasmiz.

Chapter 356: Allen and His Raised Dragons (1)

Since the auction, Allen's Sapphire Chamber of Commerce has rapidly expanded in the South, opening several branches first. Finding the effects were good and business was booming, they continued to expand again.

Although it can't be considered a large chamber of commerce, it is still a well-known one in the South.

Allen was very satisfied with this, and Sparrow could bring him a lot of good news every time he came.

"Duke, this is our duchy's income and expenditure report for the past month. Iron ore can now be found everywhere in the duchy, and crop yields have doubled. A batch of crops has already been harvested, and the second batch has already grown. The seafood business is even more booming, with a net profit of 30 million gold coins in one month. It seems that we will be able to fill the national treasury in perhaps just one year, instead of several years."

Sparrow was currently speaking in front of Allen.

Allen was drinking wine while looking through Sparrow's financial report.

In the past month, Allen's duchy has developed rapidly. In addition, with the emergence of iron ore, spending in this area has been reduced by more than half, and income has gradually exceeded expenditure.

"Very good, Sparrow. Transfer some gold coins over recently. I need to create golden knight armor for my dragon knight regiment. Speaking of which, we don't have many high-level blacksmiths in our duchy."

Allen frowned and said, "Our duchy is rich in iron ore. Although most of the iron ore is needed for industrial use, a considerable portion can also be provided to the blacksmiths."

"However, due to the war, a large number of talents in Allen's duchy have been lost. Without high-level blacksmiths, we cannot create golden knight armor ourselves, nor various weapons. As a duchy, if we still need to purchase standard weapons from other chambers of commerce as before, it will be a huge disadvantage for us."

Allen said, and he looked at Marco on the side: "Marco, how many sets of golden knight armor do we need to make?"

"Duke, more than one hundred and fifty sets are needed. All the golden knights who have just broken through are still wearing the previous ordinary knight armor."

Marco immediately answered.

"This is the problem we need to solve. We need to form a self-sufficient environment. This is a complete and independent country. r ."

Allen said seriously. He now needs to get rid of all constraints and improve his own system. Only in this way can his territory be perfect and without flaws.

"More than one hundred and fifty sets of knight armor. Can't our dignified duchy even find high-level blacksmiths to create one hundred and fifty sets of golden knight armor?"

Allen sighed: "Sparrow, we still need to solve many problems."

Sparrow immediately calmed down from his previous joy.

"Indeed, although the duchy is developing rapidly, we have not taken care of these aspects. We have failed to live up to the Duke's trust!"

Sparrow said with some shame in his tone.

Allen waved his hand, asking him to go down and prepare the blacksmith matters. A group of high-level blacksmiths must be recruited, as well as a large number of intermediate and primary blacksmiths.

Allen's duchy needs to have its own blacksmith workshop.

After Sparrow went down, Allen then said to Marco: "You go down too."

Marco immediately bowed and left the room.

"It's time to go see those dragon cubs in the dragon's nest."

Allen stretched slightly, and in the next moment, he disappeared from the room and appeared in the dragon's nest.

The situation here was completely different from before. Not only was there the Emerald Dragon, but also eight other young dragons.

That's right, there were a total of nine dragons here.

In addition to the Emerald Dragon Fael, the others were all small dragon cubs.

The most conspicuous of them was the gray-white Mind Dragon cub.

As a forbidden dragon cub, the Mind Dragon had already shown power different from other dragons at a young age.

Wherever it was, the other dragons, even the Emerald Dragon Fael, which had grown a lot, were extremely awed by it.

It was almost the focus of the dragons.

All the dragons revolved around it.

Seeing Allen appear, the Mind Dragon cub, who was riding on Fael's neck, immediately threw Fael off and pounced towards Allen.

A pair of big eyes looked at Allen eagerly.

Allen casually took out some meat and distributed it.

Then, he personally held the Mind Dragon cub and fed it.

Obviously, this little guy's power far exceeded that of the other dragons. It was only one month old, but it already possessed the power to beat Fael, and it had already mastered the power of mind and nightmare.

It was able to sneak into the subconscious and dreams of creatures, and disappear directly from this material world to a place where no one could find it.

Only Allen had the power to pull it out of other people's minds. "Eat, little thing."

Allen fed the Mind Dragon while watching the other dragons around him eat.

From the day he bought the dragon eggs, he felt a sense of pride for the first time.

That's right, a sense of pride and accomplishment.

He didn't know about other places, but in the Norton Kingdom, he had never heard of anyone who could raise so many dragons alone.

When these little guys grow up, and I train other dragon knights, will I be able to establish a kingdom by then?" … 〃 Clang! ”

The surrounding dragon cubs were happily eating lunch. Because they could freely choose dragon eggs, almost all of the seven dragon eggs that Allen chose before were gem dragons.

As the nobles among the dragons, gem dragons possess both elemental and mental characteristics. Regardless of their strength or value, they far surpassed different dragons such as fire dragons and water dragons.

Among these seven dragons, four were gem dragons: ruby dragon, yellow sapphire dragon, purple sapphire dragon, and black sapphire dragon.

The remaining three were bronze dragon, light dragon, and thunder dragon.

These little guys were all carefully selected by Allen.

Gem dragons can provide abundant resources, while bronze is another type of iron ore resource in this (Qian Nuo Hao) world, and is also very needed. Light dragons and thunder dragons are the two elemental dragons Allen chose.

These two types of dragons are handsome and strong.

Allen was very satisfied with his choice.

Even if he wanted to train dragon knights, when the time came, he could ride whatever he wanted.

Ah, I accidentally ended up with so many dragons.

Allen would come in every day to see these dragon cubs.

When satisfying the sense of accomplishment in his heart, it could also be considered as cultivating feelings.

After playing with the dragon cubs in the dragon's nest for a while, Allen came out of the dragon's nest.

Judging from the growth of the dragons, except for the steel dragon, whose dragon knight needs to be cultivated quickly, other dragon knights can slowly select manpower. "Who should I choose?"

This has become a problem that Allen needs to worry about recently.

Chapter 357: The Problem of Mages and Familiars (2)

Selecting the remaining dragon knights also needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible, Allen thought while cultivating.

Recently, there has been some friendship between Jackson and Tasmiz.

Jackson is also secretly being cultivated by Allen with all his resources.

Now his strength has broken through the ninth level.

"In the end, the strength of the people under me is too low."

Allen sighed. If he had a few Saint Domains under his command, he would be able to complete the main quest directly.

But soon he stopped thinking about it.

After all, there are always some good things.

For example, a large number of advanced alchemists have sprung up under Allen's command!

The previous alchemist apprentices, a group of talented ones, have passed all the tests and become advanced alchemists.

This has made the number of advanced alchemists Allen has officially break through double digits. Of course, this does not include the four puppets.

At the same time, because of the final gift of magic potions and the recognition of the genius alchemist Chris, Allen's duchy has a fatal attraction to alchemists, especially low-level alchemists.

All along, a steady stream of alchemists has continued to expand Allen's alchemist camp.

Now the alchemists of Allen's duchy are already fully capable of supporting Allen's knight order.

This made Allen very satisfied, and he even spent money to build two more knight training grounds in the knight camp, which allowed the knights in the knight camp to grow faster.

In addition to the knight training ground, Allen did not favor one over the other, and the mage training ground was also expanded by two.

Speaking of which, the number of high-level mages in Allen's duchy has also officially broken through double digits, and there are hundreds of intermediate mages.

Allen has formed a court mage regiment.

As mages, they are completely different from knights. They don't need mounts.

They are completely different from knights. They don't need to charge into battle, and they haven't learned equestrian skills. For mages, what they need are familiars.

It is another type of companion.

So far, familiars need to be summoned by mages themselves with their own will, or they need to be captured and tamed.

Of course, every mage has different needs, and the familiars they need are also different.

A familiar is a mage's closest companion, a partner chosen by the mage to make up for their own shortcomings or to enhance certain aspects of themselves.

(cfbh) Its importance is extremely important, and whether it is summoning a familiar or taming a familiar, the materials that need to be used are very expensive.

On the continent, mages often cannot obtain satisfactory familiars due to various objective reasons.

Most mages' familiars are not special, and are mostly ordinary goods.

After all, familiars are really too difficult to capture.
