Mythic Card Master: Start with a Knight

Chapter 174 Rest, Crystal Game

The Cavaliers stopped, and the Cavaliers formed a circle around Chu Ming and Lei Te and others quickly jumped off their horses.

"Are you okay?!"

Isabel trotted over anxiously, regardless of the dirty blood on the ground, and knelt beside Chu Ming to help him up.

Chu Ming shook his head weakly. The two black wizards continued to provide him with mental power in the nightmare. His mental power improved a lot, but his body was weak.

Burrett on the side supported Edel's arm and pushed him onto the horse's back.

"Ouch, can't you be lighter?"

Edel gasped and collapsed on the horse, unable to move.

Burrett ignored him, his eyes were calm, and he directed everyone: "Everyone return to the capital immediately, be careful of the dark wizard."

Isabel nodded, carefully lifted Chu Ming, and helped him get onto the horse.

Chu Ming gasped for a while, then chuckled lightly, "Because Edel and I made such a fuss, I guess these dark wizards are scared out of their wits."

Hearing the words, the two vigilant wizards of King's Epic couldn't help but smile, and looked at Chu Ming with admiration.

The girl got on the horse, held his body steady, joined the cavaliers, and returned in the direction of the capital.

Along the way, Isabel shimmered in her hands.

Under the shining light, Chu Ming's physical strength gradually recovered, and his trembling hands finally calmed down.

As for Edel, with his knight physique, he recovered quite a bit without any medical treatment.

When the Cavaliers returned to the capital, Chu Ming and the two were able to walk normally and jumped off their horses.

boom!
With a loud noise, the city gate was closed, and the knights surrounded the gate, staring at Chu Ming and the two of them, with joy and admiration in their eyes.

"Lord Narende!"

"Lord Edel!"

"hero!"

The Coutts knights inside saluted one after another, and couldn't help shouting out enthusiastically.

Under the influence of this atmosphere, the other knights couldn't help but raise their hands to salute the two of them.

Being stared at so enthusiastically by everyone, Edel blushed slightly, feeling an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Chu Ming also smiled lightly, and then looked at Buret and High Priest Lysa who came slowly to greet him.

"Earl Brett, High Priest Lysa, this matter is not over yet."

"The epic wizards of the Truth Society have suffered heavy casualties, and they will definitely plan more violent attacks in advance."

He looked around everyone, "I think we have to leave the capital."

Everyone's faces were different, and the joy and excitement washed away a lot.

Buret nodded and said: "Please also inform the other earls and the people in the capital that we are moving north. The nobles and people who want to leave the capital can accompany them. The Cavaliers will try their best to ensure your safety."

"We will not restrict the freedom of the entourage, and they can leave at any time after they arrive at the northern border."

"The time to leave the capital is probably tomorrow. After everyone recovers, they will leave immediately."

In fact, even if Burrett wanted to bring all these people to the Earl of Coutts, he couldn't do it.

Not to mention the long distance between the Earl of Kutz and the capital, there is not enough supplies to support the consumption of so many people.

And the more people in the team, the slower the forward speed, and it is very likely that the black wizard will catch up.

Everyone struggled for a while when they heard the words.

After a while, Emeka and Dino looked at each other and nodded, and said to Burrett: "Earl Burrett, we are willing to lead the wizards from the Wizard Tower to follow you to the Earl of Coutts. The Earl took it in."

Burrett was stunned for a moment, then laughed happily and said, "Welcome to the Earl of Coutts."

In fact, he knew that the reason why these two epic wizards wanted to join the Earl of Kutz was not because of him or the Earl of Kutz.

After all, the Earl of Kutz is a barren and remote country in the mind of wizards. If he hadn't been shocked by Chu Ming's powerful wizard power, then he really couldn't think of a reason for two epic wizards to join the Earl of Kutz .

In any case, the addition of two epic wizards will greatly promote the development of the county. A large number of wizards and apprentices will enter the county and be transformed into spiritual wizards.

As long as they are given time to rest, the Earl of Coutts will surely usher in a transformation.

The two epic wizards saluted Chu Ming, then hurried back to the Wizard Tower to summon the wizards to prepare for the northward move.

Seeing the people from all major forces go away, Chu Ming turned to look at High Priest Lysa, "High Priest, how about the Church of Life going north with us to the Earl of Coutts?"

Isabel's ears moved slightly, and she quietly looked at High Priest Lysa, with a hint of hope in her eyes.

High Priest Lysa smiled and said, "That's fine, we also have a care for each other."

Isabel supported the old man, and unconsciously raised her brows and eyes, "Grandma High Priest, let's go back and pack our things."

The old man said angrily, "What are you in a hurry for, kid? There is still a long way to go from the Earl of Coutts."

"whee……"

Isabel helped the old man to walk towards the carriage, during which she turned around and smiled at Chu Ming.

Chu Ming smiled and waved, watching the girl leave.

Soon, there were only Chu Ming, Edel and Burrett left at the door, as well as some guarding knights.

Burrett walked towards Chu Ming, patted him on the shoulder and sighed, "Nalend, without you, we don't know how much we would have to pay to break out from the siege of the black wizards this time."

"Father, and me."

Edel quickly raised his hand.

"Ahem, Edel, you did a good job."

Burrett looked at Edel, his eyes softened.

Without disturbing the conversation between the father and son, Chu Ming, led by the knight, went to a nearby hotel and changed the blood-stained gray robe.

After meditating for a while in the hotel, when he opened it again, it was already night.

After a day of meditation, his mental strength has fully recovered, and his physical weakness has also disappeared.

Standing up and moving his body, Chu Ming returned to the city wall and found Burrett.

Seeing Chu Ming approaching, Burrett led him up to the city wall.

Then a knight came and placed the heavy box in front of Chu Ming.

"This is?"

Chu Ming opened the box under Burrett's gesture.

In the gap of the box, a gleam of light lit up, and countless crystals appeared in front of him.

"Are these top-grade crystals?" Chu Ming suddenly looked at Burrett, "Earl Burrett, where did you get all these crystals?"

Burrett smiled and said: "The bastards in the royal family want me to guard the capital, so I naturally have to blackmail them."

"There are a total of [-] top-quality crystals in it, I don't know if there are enough."

Chu Ming did some calculations, and it took an average of [-] top-quality crystals to manufacture a rune equipment capable of unleashing extreme witchcraft.

And there are [-] crystals here, that is to say, as long as all the crystals are made into rune equipment, five epic wizards can be born in the territory!
Thinking of this, Chu Ming couldn't restrain the smile on his face, "Earl Burrett, the crystals here are enough to train five epic wizards."

Burrett was stunned for a moment, with a shocking expression on his face, "Then add Emeka and Dino, the two epic wizards of the capital city, and the two epic priests of the Church of Life, wouldn't the number of epics in the territory reach Fourteen already?!"

Not to mention the fourteen epics, in the history of the Coutts family, one of the ancestors of the earldom was an epic.

When he came to him, not only his son Edel became an epic, but the number of epics in the territory even broke through ten figures!
Burrett took a deep breath, looked at Chu Ming, his heart was surging.

He knew that all of this came after the young man in front of him came to the earldom. If it weren't for Chu Ming, the territory might still be troubled by the intrusion of black wizards.

Thinking of this, the man also decided to follow in Chu Ming's footsteps.

The man sighed: "Narend, I have lived most of my life, and I have never met a genius like you."

"As long as the territory continues to develop, maybe one day it will be able to compete head-on with the black wizard."

Chu Ming chuckled, then shook his head, "The horror of black wizards lies in the god of knowledge and the terrifying power of distortion behind them."

"After accepting the baptism of distortion power, a small number of dark wizards have broken through the limit of wizards and reached a new level."

"Although I don't know why these powerful dark wizards didn't appear here, we can't underestimate the dark wizards because of this."

"We still have a ways to go."

After listening, Burrett walked to the city wall and looked over, "Sorry, I was too excited."

He sighed, "Sometimes I think that the darkness has appeared in ancient times, and there is still no sign of abating until now, even the eternal gods are submerged in the darkness, we mortals can really succeed Drive out the darkness?"

As he said that, the man shook his head, and said amusedly: "Now that even the black wizard can't solve it, it's ridiculous that I thought about such a profound question."

Chu Ming walked beside him, lost in memory, and said after a long time: "Actually, darkness is always with us, and it's really hard for Intinuit people to imagine what it would be like without darkness."

"But no matter what, even without the protection of the gods, we have been able to go from ancient times to the present in the erosion of darkness, which is enough to prove the resilience of human civilization."

"As for how to go on the next road, do your best, and the destiny will come naturally."

……

Late at night, a hotel near the north gate of the capital was lit up.

If someone comes in, they will find that there are some well-known figures in the capital, such as some powerful earls and nobles, the captain of the knights with the right to judge, the master of the wizard tower...

But even if these people have great power in the capital, they still have to focus on the young man in front of the long table.

Following everyone's gaze, Chu Ming was sitting at the end of the long table, with his eyes closed, breathing heavily, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.

Behind him are two epic wizards, Edel and Emeka, who are also epic, but at this moment they are willing to accept the order of the young man in front of them.

These former big men didn't dare to take a breath, and kept their eyes on Chu Ming, cautiously, for fear of disturbing his rest.

After a while, the sound of metal chains sounded, and Burrett walked in with two knights.

"Narend, no one is coming."

Hearing this, Chu Ming slowly opened his eyes and looked at the crowd.

The big shots were swept away by this plain gaze, and their hearts were frozen, and they dared not speak.

They could never have imagined that the heroic wizard who had been widely rumored in the capital a few years ago had grown to such a level.

Now even if Chu Ming just stomped his feet, it would cause an earthquake in the entire capital.

Taking a full view of everyone's different expressions, Chu Ming said, "I called you here for a late-night meeting, not to give you a bad impression."

"I just want to remind everyone here that if you want to escape from the hands of the dark wizard, you must gather all your strength."

"I suggest that before entering the northern border, all the forces in your hands should be gathered and handed over to Earl Burrett for management."

"After entering the northern border, it is your freedom to go wherever you want, and we will not stop you."

"Of course, if anyone is willing to follow us north to the Earl of Coutts, we also welcome it."

"Everyone, do you have any objections?"

When everyone heard the words, they shook their heads quickly, for fear that they would be noticed by Chu Ming if they were too slow to express their views.

Just kidding, if you really want to raise an objection, whether you can get out of this hotel today is a problem.

They still have a clear understanding of the situation, at least before entering the northern border, this man's words must not be violated.

After all, the remaining four epics in the capital all followed in Chu Ming's footsteps, even himself and Edel Knight were epics.

With such a huge force, it is no problem to sweep the entire king.

Not to mention that the young man in front of him has a strong record of repelling more than a dozen epic wizards. Anyone who sees this will want to kneel down and call his foster father.

Most of these forces are still very moved by Chu Ming's suggestion to go north to the Earl of Kutz.

The black wizard already has the power to capture the southern border, and after the king's capital passes, the northern border will also be in jeopardy.

At this time, seeking the asylum of the Earl of Coutts, which has many epic powers, is an irresistible choice.

Of course, some forces have a deep relationship with the royal family or other nobles of the counties, and they may not necessarily choose the Counties of Coutts.

But in fact, to Chu Ming, the choice of these forces is really not important.

The only things he has eyes for are the priests of the church and the wizards of the wizard tower. As for these forces, only some cavaliers can barely enter his eyes.

Seeing that there was no objection from the crowd, Chu Ming continued to speak: "Of course, our protection is not without cost, please give me the useless top-quality crystals in the inventory in exchange."

As soon as these words came out, the scene was quiet, and someone was already secretly cursing in their hearts.

What is a useless top-quality crystal? This thing is considered scarce everywhere, and it is a resource that is usually reluctant to use.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Chu Ming opened his mouth, he wanted the top-quality crystals in their inventory, which made it difficult for everyone to accept for a while.

Seeing everyone's ugly expressions as if they had eaten flies, Chu Ming said calmly, "Think slowly, everyone, we still have one night."

"After tonight, it's useless even if you have top-quality crystals, and there's a high probability that they will fall into the hands of the black wizard."

Hearing such a blatant threat, everyone cursed inwardly, gritted their teeth angrily, and finally could only agree.

Looking at their expressions, Chu Ming knew that his actions had offended many people.

But so what, as long as the best crystals can be obtained, a few more epic wizards can be added to the territory.

Those forces that wanted to enter the territory would only be absorbed by the Wizard Tower or the Earlland Knights, and there was no threat at all.

And those forces who want to go to other earldoms, facing the earldom of Kutz with many epics, dare not even fart, maybe they will die directly in the confrontation with the black wizard in the future.

To be honest, Chu Ming would be giving them face if he didn't directly start the robbery.

After the meeting, the Cavaliers followed many powerful figures back to withdraw the best crystals.

In the hotel, after everyone left, Edel's tense face finally relaxed.

He hesitated for a moment, and said to Chu Ming, "Nalend, isn't it too extreme for us to do this?"

Before Chu Ming could reply to him, he received Burrett's slap on the head, and the man said angrily, "Why are you being polite to them, maybe they will bring disaster if they join the territory."

Edel rubbed his head and asked, "Father, are you saying that their entry into the territory will disrupt the order in the city?"

Burrett sighed, "You just think too well of them."

"These people have been in power for a long time, and they will definitely not be too peaceful. Entering the territory is also a disaster."

"But as long as they can absorb the wizards and knights they brought into the territory, it will also promote the development of the territory."

Chu Ming also said at this time: "Earl Burrett is right. After returning to the territory, we must find a way to take away their power control."

"In this period, stability is the most important thing."

Edel nodded half-understanding.

After waiting for an hour, a nobleman soon delivered the first box of top-quality crystals.

Chu Ming opened the wooden box, and there was a faint light inside, and more than 20 top-quality crystal fragments lay quietly inside.

After the first box of crystals was delivered, people with a series of identities such as nobles, guards, and businessmen successively sent box after box of crystals.

The sky was slightly bright, and when the last box of crystals arrived, Chu Ming had four hundred more top-quality crystals in his hands.

Including the crystals that Burrett begged from the royal family, the number of top-quality crystals exceeded [-]!
One piece of extreme rune equipment needs sixty crystals, that is to say, the number of crystals he now has is enough to create eleven pieces of extreme rune equipment, and the number of epics in the territory will reach 20!

Not to mention confronting the Society of Truth, this force is enough to sweep across the northern border.

Thinking of this, Chu Ming was calm on the surface, but a little excited in his heart.

In contrast, Edel was more excited than him, his eyebrows were beaming, and he almost didn't write the word joy on his face.

Seeing that Edel was so excited, Emeka and Dino on the side were a little confused.

Although the top grade crystals are indeed very precious, they shouldn't be so excited.

Thoughts flashed through the minds of the two of them. After thinking for a while, they labeled Edel as greedy for money, and they were already thinking about how to use money to build a good relationship with Edel.

Edel looked at the top-quality crystals all over the floor with silly joy, completely unaware that he had been labeled with an inexplicable label by others.
