Great Nobleman

Brand didn't understand something as profound as the extraordinary bloodline.

He only knew that people with such a bloodline would show talent beyond ordinary people in a certain field.

Letting Catherine practice knight training is also out of the consideration of giving full play to her blood talent.

At least from the current point of view, the effect is very good.

Brand remembered Catherine's letter from last month saying that she had become an intermediate knight apprentice, and now she didn't know if she had gone any further.

Out of curiosity, Brand asked directly.

Hearing this, Catherine felt a little ashamed and said:

"Master, I am still at the level of an intermediate knight apprentice. It will take at least one month before I can reach the level of Master Yersin's current senior knight apprentice."

"Keep going!"

After knowing the progress of Catherine's cultivation, Brand thought it was a good thing he didn't tell Yersin about Catherine.

Yersin just knew that Catherine was training as a knight.

If he knew that Catherine's strength was about to catch up with him, he didn't know how sour he would be!

Because Catherine was still looking at him eagerly, Brand rubbed the head that was sent up again, and said loudly:

"Isn't it just armor? Find a time and I'll buy you another set."

Compared to the various expensive items of the mage, the equipment of the knight is relatively cheap.

Catherine's current armor only cost 30 magic gold coins.

Among the knight armors in the store, Catherine's set is already the best equipment, and there are only master works and magic equipment with magic effects.

In the Farnese Continent, no matter what it is, as long as it has something to do with magic, the price will at least increase several times.

Knight armor is no exception.

Although because of the cooperation with Professor Morian, Brand's small coffers are much more abundant.

But buying magic equipment for Catherine, Brand thinks, let's talk about it later!

...

Not long after Catherine brought Brand to the south gate of the imperial capital to gather, the caravan loaded up and set off quickly.

In addition to taking Brand home this time, the caravan also had the task of selling and purchasing goods and materials.

But at this time, most of the goods brought by the caravan from the territory have been sold out, and the materials that need to be purchased have also been loaded.

So they have no other tasks except to hurry.

From the imperial capital to Viscount Holland, they will pass through four counties and more than ten territories on the way, and the total distance is about 1,000 kilometers.

If the road goes well.

With the normal speed of the horses of the blood of the Warcraft blood of the Holland family caravan.

It only takes three days and nights to return to Viscount Holland.

But from a practical point of view, it is inevitable that they will not be able to go smoothly on the way back.

Judging from past experience, walking near the city will not pose any safety hazards.

But if it is in a wild area far away from human habitation, it is hard to say.

After all, although there have been no wars around the Kaya Empire in recent decades, and no turmoil in the country.

But after all, it is a feudal slavery society, and the area covered by order is very limited.

In the wild, bandits and bandits are not uncommon, except for the monsters who occasionally go out to fight their teeth.

This has become a major feature of the Farnese Continent.

Fortunately, the caravan is still in the imperial capital area.

Compared with other places, the law and order around the imperial capital is obviously much better.

So Brand slept peacefully all morning in the special carriage equipped with a shock-absorbing system.

In the afternoon, after leaving the imperial capital area.

All the guards raised their vigilance.

Although they had already displayed the aristocratic crest of the Holland family, there were also a large number of guards in armor.

But the daring bandits who lick blood at the knife edge don't necessarily care about this.

Noble caravans were not without precedent.

In the eyes of the bandits, as long as the goods are confirmed to be plunderable, no matter how well-equipped the opponent is on the surface, as long as the difference in numbers is not too large, they can run into each other.

On the carriage, Brand, who had eaten some dry food symbolically, suddenly felt some noise outside, and then the carriage gradually stopped.

Looking out from the window of the carriage, in the jungle in the distance, dozens of "farmers" dressed in brightly colored clothes rushed towards the caravan, shouting unknown slogans and carrying various weapons. down.

Faced with such a scene, the caravan of the Holland family showed excellent qualities.

Under Yersin's command, the entourage who were not capable of fighting immediately searched for sheltered locations to hide.

The well-trained guards were divided into two teams at the first time, and one team was on standby to protect the safety of the carriage cargo and the entourage.

The other team dismounted and formed an infantry formation to face the bandits' attack head-on.

Unavoidably being injured by Ruya, Brand pulled down the iron shutter of the window, leaving only a small gap to observe the "battle situation" outside.

Catherine also put on her helmet at this time, drew out her long sword, and guarded the car door cautiously.

After about a few minutes, the bandits were more than half injured, and after leaving a pile of corpses, they began to flee in embarrassment.

The entire caravan suffered no casualties.

After a simple cleaning of the battlefield, Yersin stood next to the corpses of the bandits holding the blood-stained long sword, frowning slightly.

In Yersin's view, compared with the "thin" clothes of the bandits, their weapons were somewhat conspicuous.

Although these weapons are of low quality, they come in a variety of styles.

But this is not something ordinary civilians can get casually.

——The empire has strict controls on arms trade.

In addition, the entire Holland family caravan has hundreds of guards on the surface, and each guard has horses and wears standard iron armor.

Although it is impossible to tell the specific strength of these guards with the naked eye.

But you can know it with your feet.

This is not something that dozens of rabble in civilian clothes can shake.

The most powerful bandit among them is nothing more than an intermediate knight apprentice.

At this time, Anderson, the head of the guard, came over and said to Yersin:

"Young Master, according to the captives, they are rogues wandering around here. This time they are out in force, and the weapons were seized not long ago."

...

"Master, Chief of Guards Anderson told us to be vigilant, those bandits just now should be just a test."

In Brand's carriage, Catherine, who was looking for good news, explained the situation to Brand.

Brand nodded knowingly.

As a weak chicken with self-knowledge, Brand is very clear.

The only thing he can do is not to trouble his own guards.

Of course, if he encounters any special circumstances, he is not as defenseless as outsiders imagine.

After all, not long ago, Brand hugged the thigh of a "rich woman".

In the few days after being accepted as a disciple by Celine, Brand drank several bottles of refreshment potions every day.

The purpose is to manifest some "precious specialties of the Holland family" to express his "respect" to Celine.

Although Celine is not an alchemy pharmacist, she doesn't know the value of the "special product" that Brand gave her.

However, under Brand's "sweet talk".

Celine gave Brand several life-saving spell scrolls in return with a satisfied face.

Judging from Celine's return, Brand undoubtedly made a profit.

Of course, Celine is definitely not at a loss, after all, what Brand sent out were all unique "precious specialties of the Holland family".

In addition to the magic scroll, as Brand's teacher, Celine also fully fulfilled the duties of a teacher.

She taught Brand very practical magic knowledge at the level of "Mage Apprentice".

When asked what he learned specifically, Brand could only say that it was a bit "hard to describe."

Of course, if you insist on asking, Brand can also tell you with certainty that he has not learned nothing!

At least the release method of the spell scroll is more proficient than before!
