Start with Island Lord

Early in the morning.

Selena was awakened by the crisp cry of the snowbird.

She opened her eyes and saw the golden sunlight coming through the narrow window into the bedroom, forming a golden light curtain in the room, which was very beautiful.

She subconsciously tried to wake Rosen up, but she found nothing. Then she recalled what happened last night.

At ten o'clock last night, there was an invasion of forest spirits. After more than an hour of anxiety, they said that the forest spirits had been completely wiped out.

Then she yawned and was asked by Rosen to go back to the room to rest.

She wanted to insist, but he said that girls who stay up late get old quickly, and told her to sleep first, and he would follow after finishing the chores at hand. Anyway, after a series of soft and hard reasons, plus she was really sleepy, she went back to the bedroom in a daze.

Now it seems that her husband has been busy all night.

She was grateful for her husband's care, but she was worried about his health, so she got up quickly, washed up simply, and went straight to the underground alchemy room with breakfast.

The entrance to the alchemy room was covered by a magic barrier, but of course it would not stop Selena, just like the barrier Selena set up would leave a special passcode for Rosen.

As soon as she entered the basement, Selena found that it had changed a lot compared to last night.

There were many more strange-looking craftsman puppets.

Some had arms that could rotate and move, some were flat plates that moved steadily on the ground, and some were some that had never been seen before.

These puppets were busy all the time.

Transporting materials, carving runes, operating alchemy equipment, etc.

In the middle of these craftsman puppets, a human skeleton had been completed for more than half, and was taking shape at a very incredible speed.

But as a mage, Selena could see clearly at a glance that these fancy craftsman puppets were not the key.

The most important thing was a huge rectangular block with a side length of more than 4 meters and a height of 3 meters in the corner of the room.

The outer surface of the rectangular block was engraved with strange inscriptions that she had never seen before, which looked similar to lightning inscriptions, but with many unique changes.

Her husband was standing beside this strange rectangular block, one hand around his chest, the other resting on his chin, deep in thought.

After hearing the noise, he turned around, with a gentle smile on his face that Selena felt very familiar with.

"Good morning, my beautiful lady."

His tone was cheerful and his complexion was very good, not like he had stayed up late at all.

Selena was relieved and handed over breakfast: "How are the invading forest elves?"

"There were 200 of them, and we killed almost 180 on the spot, captured more than 20 alive, and none of them ran away."

"What about our soldiers?"

"Five or six were injured, and no one was killed."

"Oh~ That's great."

Selena was very happy, but also worried: "Will such night raids happen frequently in the future?"

Rosen shook his head: "No, this may be the last battle. If you are unlucky, you will fight one more battle. But there will never be a third battle."

Seeing Selena's confusion, he explained more.

"The battle last night defeated a group of the most capable forest elves. Their status in the rebels is no less than that of the Flame Corps to us."

"Beat them, and we will establish our prestige."

"Oh~ I see."

Selena felt relieved and turned to look at the cuboid: "Is this the lightning container you mentioned? I think it should be called the Lightning House."

Rosen smiled: "Then let's call it the Lightning House."

Selena walked around the Lightning House: "I saw many light-guiding runes. Are they guiding sunlight from outside?"

"Yes."

"What is the conversion efficiency of light power into lightning?"

Rosen squinted and smiled: "About 10 parts of sunlight can be converted into 6 parts of lightning."

The photoelectric conversion efficiency of 60% would make a group of scientists jump up on Earth, but in this alien world, there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Based on Rosen's current research level, the limit should be 91.5%.

Selena's eyes lit up: "That's great."

Then he asked: "How long will it take to build 50 combat puppets?"

"We work together, and with the help of these craftsman puppets, we can make it in seven days."

Rosen explained while eating breakfast.

After eating, he clapped his hands and said: "Let's get started, Madam. The next seven days will be our busiest seven days. After that, there won't be much heavy work."

Selena was stunned: "You are the lord, how can you stay in the laboratory all the time?"

The lord is a person who is the focus of everyone's attention. I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him. If he has diarrhea, it will spread all over the city, not to mention that he doesn't show up for a long time?

Rosen clapped his hands: "Wake up."

In the corner of the room, a curtain was lifted and a person walked out.

This person is exactly the same as Rosen, and it is Puppet No. 2.

This is the first time Selena has seen Puppet No. 2, and she immediately walked over to check it carefully.

A few minutes later, she commented: "It's very similar to you, but there is still a sense of stiffness."

Rosen smiled: "Madam, you are a master of magic and you are very familiar with me. Naturally, you can easily find the difference, but others can't see it."

"That's right. But how does he cast the spell? Is it the common method in "Standard Magic Puppet"? "

"Yes, it is to use the crystal lattice in the body to cast spells."

"I installed four types of crystal lattices in total, including mind, wind, force, and arcane, a total of 58."

That is, this puppet can release a total of 58 low-level spells.

This is very cumbersome, and subsequent recharging is also very troublesome. An obvious ultimate solution is to use the "pure mana lattice".

Whatever spell energy is needed, use pure mana to convert it in real time.

Unfortunately, this is a dream.

Because there is an iron law of magic that has made countless geniuses bow down, called the "Supreme Law of Life".

That is, "pure mana cannot be stored in any non-living container other than the soul. '

So far, there has been no exception.

Back to the topic.

Selena sighed with emotion: "It's really hard for you to put 58 low-level lattices in such a small body."

"It's really a bit troublesome."

Rosen controlled Puppet No. 2 to walk towards the exit of the laboratory.

"Next, I can remotely control him to handle government affairs while busy in the laboratory. After all, most of the time, the lord just needs to sit in the study and take a nap."

Selena praised: "This is a good idea."

She also calmed down and focused on helping Rosen continue to improve the magic laboratory.

The view returned to Puppet No. 2.

After walking out of the underground laboratory, ‘Rosen’ immediately took 5 bottles of Dragon’s Blessing and went to Wei Ge’s potion room.

After the battle last night, the rebels were either scared and dared not come, but if they came, they would definitely be very well prepared and there would be a lot of people. It would be a decisive battle in all likelihood!

As a lord, of course, he did not want to see the worst situation, and would try his best to avoid it, but he had to prepare for the worst situation.

Soon they arrived at the end of the field.

Wei Ge had already laid out all the alchemy equipment and various materials.

In addition, she also recruited five young apprentices with a good foundation in magic and a clean background on the island as assistants.

When Rosen arrived, she was studying the improved steel potion according to the task originally assigned by Rosen.

After seeing Rosen, she turned her head and looked at him, and her eyes quickly fell on the pottery jar.

After taking a closer look, she immediately handed the work at hand to a young apprentice beside her.

"Is this the Dragon's Blessing of the Forest Spirit Witch Master?"

Rosen handed over the potion: "It seems that you already know a lot of things."

"This potion is very strong. After drinking it, you will be extremely powerful and your body will be as strong as steel. And I haven't found a dispelling spell to remove the effect yet."

Wei Ge's eyes suddenly showed a very interested light: "Hmm~~ Even you can't dispel it? It seems that this witch medicine is really something."

In her opinion, although Rosen's magic power is not high, he is extremely knowledgeable.

She opened the medicine jar, sniffed it gently, and tested various potion reagents one by one.

Finally, she closed her eyes and thought for a while, and concluded: "This is not the witch medicine of the primitive tribe, but the medicine refining method of the ancient Set Kingdom."

Rosen's eyes flashed when he heard it: "The Set Kingdom on the giant island of Weilan?"

He had always been afraid of the witchcraft master of the forest spirit because the other party was a wild way of unknown origin.

But if there is evidence, the threat level of the other party will instantly drop by an order of magnitude.

As long as you look up the relevant information of the ancient Set Kingdom, you can feel the veins of its power.

And Lai Fu has this information in his database.

‘I have to take the time to take a good look. ’

At this time, Wei Ge’s voice came again.

“Yes, it is the ancient kingdom destroyed by Saint Weilan. According to the research of Master Samira, a famous naturalist in our country, when the country was destroyed, some scholars of the Set Kingdom took the magic data and fled by boat.”

“Now it seems that some scholars should have fled to the White Sturgeon Island.”

Rosen was very happy: “This news is very good.”

This is the benefit of cooperation and exchange, you can borrow other people’s knowledge to fill your own knowledge blind spots.

Wei Ge carefully poured out a little potion again, stirred it with some new reagent potion and tested it, and came to the second conclusion.

“There is a very powerful raw material in the potion, which is blood. But I don’t know what animal’s blood it is for the time being, and I need time to explore it.”

Rosen immediately left the remaining four bottles of potion: “These are all for you as test products.”

Wei Ge nodded happily and gave Rosen another idea.

"In fact, the method of refining this potion is very crude, which greatly wastes the power in the blood."

"I know a potion formula that can use ordinary materials to create a potion with similar effects or even stronger."

"This is Levender's court secret medicine, known as the 'Heroic Hymn'."

This is also a very good solution.

Rosen immediately asked: "What is the output?"

"According to the current situation, about one liter a day, 50 bottles can be filled."

"Are there any side effects?"

"After drinking it once, the effect lasts for one hour, but it will weaken you for ten days, so you can only use it desperately."

"I understand."

Rosen thought for a while and said: "Then prepare the next batch as soon as possible, as many as possible, at least 200 bottles."

This potion is enough to be his trump card to defeat the rebels.

"No problem."

Rosen was very satisfied with getting a new trump card unexpectedly.

Just about to leave, he heard Wei Ge say again.

"Lord, if you want to mix the Heroic Hymn, the improvement of the Iron Potion will have to be postponed."

"It's okay, the Heroic Potion is more important right now."

Rosen was not disappointed at all. He now felt that this court alchemist was a real treasure.

After leaving Wei Ge's alchemy room, he immediately went to the refining room of the Kao mages and found that the progress of the Lightning Torrent Crossbow was also very good.

It is estimated that the first batch of finished products will appear in half a month.

This Lightning Torrent Crossbow is his second trump card.

After a few words of encouragement, he finally came to Alonso's refining room.

Alonso also recruited a few local apprentices from the island as assistants. When Rosen arrived, he was carefully debugging various refining equipment.

After seeing Rosen, he was very happy: "Lord, this is the best alchemy equipment I have ever used, and the performance is surprisingly good."

Seeing that he liked it, Rosen was also very happy. After a few greetings, he got to the point.

"I have an urgent job on hand to deal with the threat of the rebels."

Alonso immediately became serious.

"Lord, please give me your orders."

'Hua La~'

Rosen handed over the transformation refining book of "Intermediate Lightning Amulet".

"I will provide you with sufficient materials, hoping to forge a batch of induced defensive amulets as soon as possible."

Alonso took the refining book, quickly glanced through it, and smiled: "If you use transfiguration to forge it, the difficulty is very low. I can make at least 30 amulets a day."

He has been studying transfiguration alchemy for some time, and has become quite proficient in the transfiguration refining techniques of some low- and medium-level magic tools, and has gained a lot of experience.

"But we have to ask other mages for help to charge the amulets."

"Don't worry about charging, I have a way. I need a batch of such amulets, the more the better, at least not less than 300."

This is serious business, Alonso immediately promised: "I will get it out as soon as possible."

"Very good, just tell me if you have any requirements, I will try my best to meet them."

Alonso shrugged: "Apprentices~ I need a group of smart and capable apprentices, preferably those with a basic knowledge of refining, who can help me with the work right away."

"Okay, I'll go to Shire County to recruit them."

Alonso grinned: "Uh~ I want civilians, because they are smart and hardworking."

"No problem."

In this way, the third trump card is also available.

After leaving the refining room, Rosen went to find Knight Commander Codlin again.

To be more precise, he went to see the forest elf prisoners of war.

He has a lot of use for these prisoners.
