Chapter 43
Everyone in the Continent of God knows that elemental ores, magic cores, and plant ores are the three most important energy sources of the entire continent. Among them, the easiest thing to absorb and utilize is elemental ores. People's demand for elemental ores is unimaginable, and no matter how many there are, they are not enough.
If we can really find a new energy source, then...
Seeing Feleg nodding, Mira flashed into the crypt. After a while, she came out of the crypt and held a few stones in her hand. Feleg took them and saw that as he thought, these were all full of energy.
"This is a mine cave, and that guy thinks it is a restaurant." Mira said, and after entering the crypt, after digging a few times, he dug out several identical stones.
"Well, it seems that's the case. No wonder it has to stick here. Unfortunately, I can't help it with such a stone. I have to look for Antonio. He is an alchemist, maybe he has a way." Feleg said with uncertainty. The alchemist should be considered a branch of the magician, and it is the worst kind. I can't help it myself, and Antonio hasn't necessarily.
"Okay, but it's difficult to locate the Magic Realm forest. It's not easy to find this place next time." Mira said with a frown. He was right. The Magic Realm forest is densely packed with plants. In addition, the climate is suitable, and the plant growth rate is very fast. It will change the original landform in less than a month or two.
"I can't do anything about this." Feleg shook his head and said. Magic marks are a good choice, but after a period of time, the magic seed energy will slowly disappear. I am afraid that there will be nothing in less than a month.
This is different from the valley grassland. It is home to hurricanes. Even if Filigo cannot be found, hurricanes have a way to find a place. What's more, the valley grassland is only a few hundred kilometers away from the small mountain village, which is much closer than here.
After breaking up with Mira, Ferleg walked in the forest for more than two months. Not to mention teacher Beca, he couldn't even see his figure. He often saw the figure of the monster. Fortunately, it was still an intermediate monster area here, and there were not many monsters, so there was no trouble.
In the end, Ferleg had to give up helplessly. It was too difficult to find someone in the Demon Realm Forest. You should know that the area of the Demon Realm Forest is much larger than the total area of all empires.
Back to the valley grassland and seeing Merlin, Ferlig was very moved. This girl who had a very poor magical talent. With the financial resources of her family, she could barely have the opportunity to become a magician. She endured endless loneliness alone in the valley grassland, and was still working hard while eating dry food that could only fill her stomach and tasteless.
As Ferlig thought, Merlin's talent was really bad. Even with enough elemental ore, her progress was still several times slower than Ferlig's back then. Five months ago, she was able to use a paper-like magic shield, and now she only barely released a pitiful magic bullet, and it had no power at all.
Looking at the row of exhausted elemental ores on the ground, Ferlig wondered if he had done something wrong. If these elemental ores were used by a talented magic apprentice, they would probably have been a junior magician, but Merlin could only be considered a magic apprentice, and it was the worst.
"We went back and the food was almost done and needed to be supplemented." Although we were disappointed, Felleg said gently. It was definitely the right choice not to accept her as a magic apprentice. Even if she worked hard, her future achievements would not be very high.
Merlin has been here for more than a year, and has never seen anyone except for occasionally seeing herself. This is too cruel for a girl under twenty years old.
Merlin lowered her head and started to pack up her things. In fact, there was nothing to clean up. She would need to come back here to continue practicing in the future. She didn't need to take away the tent and bed, and the food was almost consumed. In addition to the few elemental ores in her hand, the chain mail that Ferry gave her on her body and a magic wand that could be used as a spear.
When it was more than ten kilometers away from Kuka Town, Feleg felt that it was not right. Along the way, he had seen four grain transport teams, each grain transport team had dozens of big trucks, and now is definitely not the season for harvest.
"It's so strange." Feleg murmured to himself.
"Maybe... it might be a war." Merlin behind her said softly. She was a little afraid of Feleg. She knew very well that her magical talent was too poor, and the little teacher didn't like her at all. However, she was still very grateful to Feleg. No one except him was willing to accept him as a magic apprentice. Although Feleg also did not agree to accept him, he had been helping him become a magician.
"Oh?" Ferlig looked back at Merlin, pondered for a moment and asked, "Why do you say that?" In terms of age, he is not as good as Merlin. In terms of knowledge, Merlin is the daughter of the great duke.
"It is not the harvest season now. There are many grain trucks. Once the direction arrives, I also see several cars on the sign of the Infantry Club of the Duchy of Land." Merlin said softly.
"So, our principality is fighting with other countries?" Ferleg left his hometown with Beca at the age of six. Except for living in the Imperial Magic Academy for half a year, he spent the rest of his time in the Magic Realm Forest. Not to mention the female princess like Merlin, even ordinary people should have more knowledge than him. Of course, this knowledge refers to common sense, not magic knowledge.
"No, it should be that the Empire or the allies of the Duchy of Terran were going to fight, and the Duchy of Terran produced a lot of food." Merlin reminded that the female princess from the Duchy family had poor magical talent, but she was a very smart woman.
"Well, there are some truths, you will know when you get home." Under Ferlig's urging, he arrived at his home in Kulin Town in just a moment. With the hurricane's journey, these more than ten miles were nothing.
Outside the chain mail, wearing a magic robe that portrays the Blizzard magic array and a hurricane exactly the same as the family badge, allowed Ferig to enter the door of his home smoothly, without being almost turned away like the last time.
"Three brother, are you back?" The first one to rush out was Jenny, the little princess of the Landis family.
"Jenny, where is my parents? And what's going on in our Principality?" Felleg couldn't wait to ask after jumping out of the hurricane.
"It seems that it was an announcement issued by the Empire. They didn't tell me what it was." Jenny seemed very unhappy, but Jenny was still very happy to meet her idol, the great magician third brother.
Before dinner, Fellig met his parents after a busy day. They went to help his in-laws Lord Virgis. As the mayor, there were too many things to be busy during this period. However, his only son went to Fellig's territory and went with his daughter-in-law and two brothers. As a result, the number of people he could rely on was reduced by half, and he had to invite two young in-laws to help.
"Two months ago, Kuka Town received a notice from the Empire, requiring our Duchy of Terrain to enter the third-level combat readiness and issued a military food supply task. We have been busy with military food during this period. Feileg, you know, the specialty of our Duchy of Terrain is food. Although the grain production around Kuka Town is not high, it is still much higher than other kingdoms and principalities." The speaker was Lord Virgis, who heard the news that Fellain came back and came back with Resno and his wife.
"Level 3 combat readiness? Will our Duchy of Terran also send troops?" Feleg asked. He knew that the Duchy of Terran had a lot of food, but he really didn't know the Duchy of Terran's army. He only knew that there was an infantry station in Kuka Town, with two hundred infantry stations in it.
"It is very likely that the troops will be sent, but the possibility of going to the battlefield is extremely low. You must know that the two empires adjacent to our empire are not strong, and the target of this war is the Mayan Empire, which ranks seventh in the East Continent of Gods." Lord Virgis said.
Filig quickly found information about the Mayan Empire from his mind: the seventh place is 1,200 square kilometers, eight
With a population of 100 million, nine kingdoms, one hundred and twenty-two principalities, forty provinces, two hundred and twenty cities, and a directly-regulated population of 480 million. From the perspective of overall strength, the Mayan Empire is much weaker than the Auckland Empire and is no match for at all. How could a war break out?
"Even if our principality needs to send troops, it should be used as logistics forces. Our Principality of Terrain only has eight thousand permanent soldiers, and the number of troops is too small. Apart from the better equipment, there is almost no combat power. After all, we have not experienced war for more than a hundred years." Lord Virgis continued.
Ferlig nodded. The Duchy of Terran only has three million people, and the few neighboring countries around were all ally of the empire, and their relationship was pretty good. The situation in the country was also very good, with almost no robbers and bandits, and there was no need for too many troops. In addition, there was no baptism of war for more than a hundred years, such an army did not have much combat effectiveness.
However, it is precisely because of such good conditions that the principality produces abundant grain and has refined iron ore, so the troops' equipment is quite good, better than those of several neighboring countries.
If the war really comes, with the strength of the Duchy of Terran, it can recruit no less than 50,000 troops in a short period of time and bring out corresponding excellent equipment. However, someone has equipment, it does not mean that he has combat effectiveness. Even if he has no war, Felleg is very clear about this.
