The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Chapter 472 Return to the Imperial Capital
Since the fourth-level wizard Steelthorn Forest becomes a natural wizard when one enters the fourth-level Dawn Wizard.

Now, with the last two second-level witchcrafts, Iron Thorn Road and first-level witchcraft, Iron Thorn, also reaching level 20, in terms of proficiency, the four witchcrafts of different levels have all reached the requirements for releasing the Dawn killing move.

Next, Ryan will have to keep trying and master the trick of releasing the four kinds of witchcraft in series.

This link is actually the one that Ryan is most confident in.

Because after he consumed 16 gold skill points, he now had a total of 516 gold skill points.

Ryan looked around the garden and walked straight forward. He soon found a relatively open clearing in the forest, and then he began to try.

"Level 1 Witchcraft Iron Thorn!"

"Level 2 Witchcraft Ironthorn Path!"

"Level 3 Witchcraft Thorn Iron Ball!"

"Level 4 Witchcraft Steelthorn Forest!"

More than ten minutes later, the system prompt sounded:

[Ding! The host has comprehended the prototype of the Dawn's killing move. Yes/No, spend 286 gold skill points to perfect it? ]

"Hiss~ It actually consumes 286 points." Ryan couldn't help but open his eyes slightly, quite surprised.

"This is too exaggerated!"

"You know, the last time I used up the crystallized killer move 'Sawtooth Cutting Net', I only spent 79 gold skill points. This time, it has more than tripled!"

"I originally thought that more than 500 gold skill points were a lot, but now it seems that it is not that much." Ryan couldn't help but think to himself.

Of course, despite his grumblings in his heart, Ryan quickly chose "yes"!
I save up so many gold skill points just to use them.

If it can improve combat power, there is naturally no need to be stingy.

As before, the deduction and improvement described by the system is, in essence, to adapt Chenxi's killer move "Iron Forest" to Ryan himself and make personal adaptive changes.

This makes the Dawn Killer Move more suitable for Ryan to perform, the casting speed is faster, and the power will also be slightly improved.

Therefore, no matter how much it costs, Ryan knows that it is still quite cost-effective.

If any other Dawn Wizard were to do this, it would probably take at least a hundred years!

With the addition of points.

In an instant, a surge of witchcraft training memories flooded into Ryan's mind, as if he had been in some mysterious space, repeatedly practicing the coordination of these four witchcrafts for two or three hundred years!
When Ryan opened his eyes again, his understanding of the four witchcrafts had become one.

[Ding! Deduction successful! The host comprehended the metal-type Chenxi killer move "Steel Forest"! ]

"I finally have my own killer move of Dawn." Ryan showed joy!
He could hardly contain his excitement and planned to find a place to perform the first Dawn Killer Move he had mastered.

Since this place is located in a corner of the Elf Royal Palace garden, performing the Dawn Killing Move here would cause too much noise and might alarm the entire elven high-ranking officials.

So, Ryan rode Blood Feather to a clearing in the dense forest dozens of kilometers away.

As Ryan silently chanted the spell, the metal energy fluctuations around him began to suddenly become violent.

"Chenxi's ultimate move: Iron Forest!"

Ryan gently pressed one hand on the ground.

next second!
Dark silver ring ripples quickly spread out from where he was standing.
Fifty meters.
one hundred meters
Two hundred meters.
Two hundred and twenty meters.
"Shhhhh!"

If you look down from mid-air, you can see a huge circular area where all the trees, shrubs and low flowers have turned into metal.

In an instant, trees and thorns of varying sizes, with sharp spikes and a metallic luster, appeared on the open ground.

For a moment, it seemed as if the area around Ryan had turned into a steel forest.

A few seconds later!
"boom!!!"

The steel forest shattered!

All the trees, bushes and even vines within the coverage area were turned into pieces, leaving only a huge circular wasteland.
At this moment, a shivering groundhog poked its head out of the hole, looked at the bare ground, and immediately shrank back in with a whoosh.

"It has a similar effect to petrification," Ryan thought to himself.

“It’s almost the concept of metalization.”

Judging from the effect just now, the original shrubs and trees seem to be covered with a layer of metal.

The open space will quickly be covered with metal bushes.

But no matter which one, dense metal spikes will quickly form on the surface.

"Plus piercing effect."

Ryan was naturally satisfied with the power of this Dawn's killing move.

"not good!"

Ryan's expression changed and he quickly rode on Blood Feather and left the scene.

Because he was just looking for a deserted place, but he didn't expect to completely destroy a large area of ​​forest.

You have to know that what the elves value most is protecting the natural environment, and druids are extreme environmentalists among them.

Ryan naturally had to leave quickly, otherwise, although there would be no trouble, Anna might complain about him.
And Ryan left just a few minutes later.

Sure enough, soon several great druids arrived at the scene and checked the scene, all with solemn expressions.

However, with the arrival of Elder Nesha, she looked strange, as if she was thinking of something.
That afternoon.

The airship landing point in Ferdinand City.

A group of people are seeing Ryan off.

"By the way, is that the big open space in the forest over there you?" Anna whispered in Ryan's ear, her sparkling eyes seeming to say, it must be you.

"It was just an accident." Ryan said with a slightly red face.

"Well, the teacher also guessed that it was you who did it, so the matter was left unresolved."

"Ryan, be careful on your trip." Anna looked at Ryan reluctantly.

"Ah."

As the Sword-Bearer airship slowly took off, Ryan ended his trip to Ferdinand Forest.

His gains this time were undoubtedly huge.

At this moment, his cabin was filled with elven leather-working supplies, all of which were given to him for free by the elves.

Although he has not yet changed his job to Elf Leatherworking, his study with Elder Nesa in the past few days has already triggered the conditions for the job change.

In other words, as long as he follows the steps, he will be able to successfully complete the job change.

at the same time.

Hammadi Palace, Imperial Capital Tamriel.

In the study room.

Hamadi asked his men again anxiously,

"Is Lord Rennes not back yet?"

"My lord, no!"

"We have arranged two teams to guard Earl Ryan's residence 24 hours a day. Once Earl Ryan returns, we will know immediately." The servant said respectfully.

"Well, report immediately when you get any news!" Hammadi said, then waved his hand slightly irritably and sent the servant away.

And he was still pacing back and forth in the study.

After a while, he sighed and said:
"Alas, why hasn't Lord Ryan come back yet? If he doesn't come back, it won't work!"

Two days ago, he received a message from his boss Royce saying that the Empire would send a delegation to visit the Federation.

After the two discussed it, they agreed that this was a great opportunity to invite Ryan to the Federation.

As for the operation of the members of the imperial delegation, if they only wanted a quota, it would not be too difficult for them. But the problem was that Mr. Ryan had not returned since he went to Ferdinand Forest.

The operation of this matter naturally requires the consent of Ryan himself before it can be carried out, otherwise it is likely to backfire.

I have been waiting until now.

But more importantly.

Just yesterday, his boss Royce told him very seriously that he must persuade Ryan to join this delegation.

The reason was that the news from Ferdinand Forest showed that the potential of Lord Ryan was even greater than they had expected.

This shocked Hammadi at the time. Is it higher than previously expected?

Doesn't that mean he is at the top of the federal talent recruitment queue?
Hammadi is well aware of what this means.

"Your Excellency, Lord Viscount, Count Ryan is back!"

Suddenly, a servant's hurried report came from outside the door!

"Great! Arrange a carriage immediately."

Hamadi showed a happy expression and said quickly.

The inner ring of the imperial capital.

In the study room of the Second Prince’s residence.

"Your Highness, it has been confirmed. I found two imperial personnel who participated in the battle and bribed them with a large sum of money. I confirmed that this Ryan transformed into a two-headed dragon and completed the final blow to the evil god's clone."

Buchanan said this with a grim expression, but his thoughts were scattered.

Ever since he received the news of Bostaf's death in battle a few days ago, he has been terrified!
You know, this is Lord Bostaf, whose strength is comparable to that of the Guardian of the Empire!
He was no match for Ryan.

The following series of news shocked him even more.

Even His Royal Highness the Second Prince was extremely surprised when he heard the news, and immediately ordered him to conduct a comprehensive and detailed investigation to determine what had happened in Ferdinand Forest.

But the more he investigated, the more frightened Buchanan became!
This Ryan is a monster.
".According to their description, the dragon form that Ryan transformed into at that time was completely different from the Imperial Dragon Rider dragon they had seen before. One of the dragon heads was almost translucent."

As Buchanan finished his story, the Second Prince Everton nodded and said:
"That's right. This is quite different from the news reported by the official channels of the empire."

That's why he asked Buchanan to investigate in detail.

As the second prince, he could naturally access the top-secret intelligence related to Ferdinand Forest, but the problem was that the description of the battle with Ryan was only briefly mentioned, and only the result was informed.

This made him a little confused at the time.

"Buchanan, remember that void dragon?"

"I always felt that there was something wrong with the previous report. Now it seems that my feeling was correct. Is someone covering up something for this Ryan?"

The second prince said with certainty after taking a detailed look at the investigation report handed to him by Buchanan.

"Oh? Could it be the sword-bearer? Marshal Alfred?" Buchanan raised his eyebrows, his eyes lit up, and he gave an answer.

"No, the sword holder does not have that much power." The second prince Everton shook his head and said.

"This time in Ferdinand Forest, the leaders of the imperial reinforcements are Lothar and Reginald. These two imperial guardians are not from the Sword Bearer system. Even Alfred doesn't have such a big face."

"But after that, Her Highness Menea arrived at Ferdinand Forest. From then on, she will be fully responsible." Buchanan frowned and asked in confusion.

Second Prince Everton remained silent in response to Buchanan's words.

After a long while, the second prince murmured softly:
"Could it be that Aunt Menia is covering up for Ryan?"

this.
Buchanan was stunned when he heard the second prince's words, and then he lowered his head even more.

He is totally unfit to comment on this.

Because the 'Red Queen' Menia is not an ordinary person. She is also of the respected imperial royal bloodline and is the aunt of His Royal Highness the Second Prince.

It can be said that this is entirely the second prince’s family affair.

The second prince just waved his hand, signaling Buchanan to leave first.

He himself continued to think.

"If that's the case, what's Aunt Menia's purpose?"

"You know, the multi-headed dragon has long disappeared from the records of the dragon clan in the long river of history. In the past, it was even the biggest enemy of the five-colored dragons of the Dragun Empire. Aunt Menia cannot be unaware of this."

"And during the battle, a translucent dragon head appeared. This..."

"Combined with the corpse of the Void Dragon that Ryan brought out from the Dragon Valley Secret Realm, could it be that this guy has some ability to absorb and fuse the blood of other dragons?"

"I really want to catch him and do experiments on him." The second prince couldn't help but sigh.

"Unfortunately, the opponent's strength has reached the epic level. This is a bit troublesome."

And here is Ryan.

After arriving at the Sword Bearer Headquarters in the Imperial Capital, he naturally planned to visit Marshal Alfred.

But unfortunately, the marshal just left the imperial capital.

Although General Augustus was in the imperial capital, he was attending a meeting in other departments at the time.

So, Ryan returned to the mansion first.

But as soon as he arrived, before he could even have a chat with his family, Hammadi came to visit him.

In the reception room.

"Mr. Hamadi,"

"Mr. Ryan, do you still remember our agreement last time?"

"Of course I remember." Ryan nodded.

Previously, after he obtained the 'Sawtooth Ring' from Hammadi, he had promised to go to the Federation within half a year.

"Mr. Ryan, due to time constraints, I will get straight to the point. The Empire will send a delegation to visit the Federation soon. I highly recommend that you go with them this time. Of course, we will help you solve the quota issue."

"This time I came to ask for your personal opinion."

"Oh?" Ryan raised his eyebrows and didn't say much.

It seems that the federal spies don't know that he will also join this delegation.

That’s right, the original candidate for the Sword Bearer’s visit seemed to be General Augustus, and he had just agreed to it two days ago.

Of course, Ryan mainly wanted to hear the other party's reasons.

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"Yes, Lord Ryan, the current situation is worse than you know."

"The Empire and the Federation are able to control some dangers at present because they have sufficient power as a backing. But you may not know that outside the Empire's territory, many tribes have completely fallen and become supporters of the evil god."

"Just like the Ferdinand Forest incident this time, if there was no support from the empire, how do you think the situation would have developed?" Hammadi asked.

"Yeah." Ryan nodded, agreeing with Hammadi's opinion.

This is basically consistent with what he learned from the confidential intelligence within the empire after being promoted to deputy chief.

"Many primitive tribes on the islands were seduced and corrupted as a whole, throwing themselves into the arms of evil gods."

"So, in the near future, there will definitely be a demigod-level evil god clone descending."

"By then, the Dragun Empire will face great crises and challenges! Sir Ryan, so we very much hope that you can go to the Federation as soon as possible."

"In that case, that's fine. As for the number of delegation members, there's no need to bother Mr. Hammadi. I should be able to take care of it."

"However, I also have something that requires the help of Mr. Hammadi." Ryan said with a smile.
