Great Nobleman

Sensing the violent movement from the central area of ​​the mine behind him, Brand stopped checking the harvest and led Catherine to concentrate on running.

In terms of body size, the tauren in the mine behind him was almost the same as the tauren encountered at the bottom of the furnace and volcano.

You know, the tauren from Furnace Volcano resisted several of his sublimation-level spell scrolls, and finally used the Twilight Cross to completely kill him.

——The strength of this tauren is almost the same.

So if this tauren is really provoked, he will most likely have to consume two more spell scroll reserves at the level of high magic to "fix" him!

Based on this fact, Brand felt that he could run as long as he could.

The opponent didn't provoke them, so there was no need to consume precious spell scroll reserves for this.

What's more, this is still outside the border area.

——There is no merit for killing the orcs!

When Brand ran out of the mine area with Catherine, he felt a force similar to the power of the great knight spreading around.

——This is the power called "will" unique to the big orcs!

Lord Holland had told him about this special power.

Ordinary big orcs can only use it to strengthen themselves, and only the best among big orcs can make it spread around, and then give "orders" to the surrounding environment like the power of a big knight.

It can be seen from this that the tauren behind him is indeed very powerful!

But unfortunately, this method can't find him and Catherine who are in the hidden enchantment.

According to my teacher, it is almost impossible for Farnes mainland magisters to be of equal or lower strength to detect this hidden barrier.

——This is also the confidence that Brand dared to come to this tauren to do things!

After leaving the mine and leading Catherine to the direction of Snow Cedar Castle for a certain distance, Brand suddenly pulled Catherine to change the direction.

——In the field of vision, the big orc moved towards them with a large group of orc boys.

The speed of the other party's movement is not very fast, like a carpet search all the way here.

Soon, not far from the two of them, the big orc led a group of younger brothers in different clothes, and explored southeast along a straight line.

——It is the direction of Snow Cedar Castle!

Seeing this scene, Brand rubbed his chin with one hand, guessing and said:

"The moment before I opened the concealment barrier, the tauren should have sensed the two of us.

Because the team of orcs didn't find us later, he probably suspected that we two humans had stolen his animal skin bag.

And since they were human beings, the direction of escape should naturally be the nearest Snow Fir Castle, so they searched all the way in the direction of Snow Fir Castle? "

At the end, Brand's tone was a little uncertain.

——After all, there are so many loopholes in this analysis!

However, Catherine nodded with approval, showing that she thought what Brand said was very reasonable.

Seeing Catherine's posture, the corners of Brand's mouth could not help but slightly upturned.

After staying in place for a while, and looking at the surrounding situation, Brand said:

"Let's go back, this big orc is wandering around, we don't want to run around."

Catherine smiled and said, "All you have to do is listen to the young master!"

Next, after adding the acceleration spell to himself, Brand maintained the barrier of concealment, followed the track of the orcs, and led Catherine towards Snow Cedar Castle.

Driving all the way, Brand thought that the tauren and his little brother would stop somewhere.

But what surprised him was that this had already passed the boundary line, and there was no sign of the other party yet.

——If it goes any further, it will be covered by the empire's large war circle.

If the opponent doesn't have that kind of special concealment means, the intelligence map of the war information room will mark the opponent immediately, and the garrison of Snow Cedar Castle will also gather and dispatch immediately.

Thinking of this, Brand took out the external screen of the empty video screen and connected it to the war information room.

——I saw a big red star slowly moving towards the direction of Snow Cedar Castle in the area near the border in the north of Cedar Castle.

Seeing this scene on the intelligence map, Brand couldn't help admiring the courage of this big orc.

Catherine beside her also saw the intelligence map, she was a little puzzled and said:

"Could it be that there is something important to him in this animal skin bag?"

After shaking the heavy animal skin bag in his hand, Brand said leisurely:

"Who knows, it's ours now anyway!"

Because judging from the intelligence map, Snow Cedar Fort has sent three imperial legions to intercept it.

Therefore, to avoid being affected by their battle, Brand and Catherine took a little detour.

When the sun reached the atrium, the two returned to the legion garrison in Snow Cedar Castle.

After freshening up and changing clothes, Catherine went to prepare lunch, while Brand prepared to count the harvest.

But at this time, Yersin and Finn came over.

Brand thought they were here to see the shape of the shield.

After all, according to the previous communication, Finn is going to build a two-handed shield.

But after a simple conversation, he found that it was not the case.

"Did Catherine find a knight's secret skill that can add the characteristic of immunity to weak damage to the attack?"

Hearing Yersin ask this question suddenly, Brand was puzzled for a moment.

After thinking for a while, Brand realized that what Yersin was talking about should be the "shield attack knight secret skill" that Catherine used in the underground mine.

He obtained that book of knight secrets half a year ago from the bandits in the chaotic area.

Although knight secret skills of this category are indeed relatively rare, their power can only be said to be very average.

Brand is also relatively clear about the specific effect of this knight's secret skill.

Specifically, the internal form of its damage to the enemy is "the enemy hits the shield", and the specific external manifestation is "the shield slams quickly".

Originally, the function of this knight secret skill was just to allow Catherine to swing the heavy shield at a faster speed, so that she had a certain attack power when using the two-handed shield.

However, because of the shield with the special characteristic of being immune to weak damage, Catherine's attack ability when using the two-handed shield has also increased a bit.

In fact, the rate of increase is not too high, at most, it only allows Catherine to have the attack power of an ordinary great knight.

And in order to have such attack power, in addition to using the shield that Brand carefully crafted for him.

It is also necessary to superimpose various knight secrets that can improve the defense of the shield, so that the shield can "immune" to the maximum damage.

According to Catherine, if she really wants to pursue attacks, the Holland family has several knight secret skills, which can directly allow her to attack at the level of a great knight, without such a cumbersome process.

It's just that the damage caused by those knight secret skills is a small point or a thin line, and the damage surface is not as big as a shield hitting it.

——Since the Holland family has better offensive knight secret skills, why does Yersin care so much about that rare but ordinary knight secret skill?

It can't be that Yersin is also planning to replace his weapon with a two-handed shield, right?
