Chapter 157 The Magician's Tower

Anna was originally worried that Roger would be angry because she prevented him from doing anything to Jenson, but now that he understood her good intentions, she was relieved and secretly relieved. 【】After comforting Roger a few more words, Anna left in a hurry and went to her father's staff to discuss whether she could get some benefits from what happened just now.

Anna, who is the heir to the duke title, is no ordinary girl, and she showed her shrewd and capable side at this time.Today Jenson made a mistake due to jealousy and impulsiveness. Although he cannot be punished as he should, he can still use this to force the Barton family to give up some benefits. Of course, Anna will not let go of such a good opportunity.

After Anna left, Roger sat down on the stone bench in the garden thoughtfully, still brooding over what happened just now.Roger has long known that the rule in the world of Turonzo is to speak with strength, but he didn't feel this so clearly as before.

Obviously, it was Jansen who attacked Roger maliciously, but because he had the backing of an aristocratic family and he was a promising magician himself, even Anna couldn't do anything to this guy.

Thinking of this, Roger couldn't help being a little bit aggrieved, and couldn't help but slapped the stone table beside him heavily and said: "Isn't it just because of the title of heir to the title and the name of a magician, I will be better than you sooner or later!"

If you want to become a great nobleman or even have a position in the Senate, you need to make contributions to the country. This can only be done slowly, and there is no rush.But regarding the magician's problem, Roger has his own solution.

When the castle reaches level three, a new building, the Tower of the Mage, can be built.This kind of building can be built up to four floors, and magic apprentices can be trained from the first floor, and senior magicians can be trained after all four floors are completed.

Because the magician is a very rare profession in this world after all, the consumption of building the magician's tower is also very high.In the past, Roger had always focused on buildings that were easier to build, but today, knowing from Anna's words that magicians are so valued by people, he couldn't help but have the idea of ​​building a magician's tower.

"When the magician's tower is built, who will dare to mess with me after I go out and follow a row of magicians." The more Roger thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was good, so he asked the castle hub in his heart: "Let's build the magician's tower." Well, how are you?"

"It's not easy to build a magician's tower. The castle hub is always very interested in the development of the castle, and soon said to Roger: "Even to build the first floor of the magician's tower requires a lot of materials, obsidian, magic crystal , gold, silver, ordinary wood and stone, and finally high-quality gemstones and a lot of soul power..."

Hearing the names of so many materials, Roger began to feel a little headache. He checked the warehouse according to the list issued by the castle hub, and found that except for silver and ordinary wood and stone, almost all other materials were not enough.Especially magic crystals and obsidian are very difficult to get, and I couldn't help but sighed: "Oh...it's really not easy to build a magician's tower."

However, although many materials were still lacking, Roger was not discouraged by this. He made up his mind to get the materials together as soon as possible, and began to build his own magician's tower.

While Roger was planning how to get the materials to build the Tower of the Sorcerer, Jansen was also investigating his background.As an old aristocratic family, the Barton family certainly has some powers unknown to outsiders. It is not too difficult to find out a person's background.

Jenson soon knew Roger's identity, but he didn't attack him right away.After all, Roger is quite well-known in the aristocratic circle of the capital, and even the king knows that there is such a person.Coupled with his status as a student of the Knight School and the good relationship with the Hamilton family, Jenson couldn't deal with Roger the way he dealt with ordinary civilians.Jenson wanted to wait for an opportunity, an opportunity that could kill Roger with full confidence and at the same time prevent others from suspecting him.

The opportunity came quickly, and the first trials of the knight school began.

It is not so easy to get the title of knight. After all, the students have to pass several trials.The content of this trial is to test the students' field combat ability. All the students will be divided into several groups, and each group will be led by a teacher to complete a primary adventurer task.

Only students who have completed the task are eligible to continue learning and participate in the next trial.And those students who fail the task will be expelled, and if they want to get the title of knight, they have to wait three years later.

The tasks to be completed by each student are random, and the school will select some suitable ones from the tasks of the Adventurer's Union, and the teacher and the students will draw lots to decide which task to participate in.Originally, this method was relatively fair, but there are loopholes in everything, and this matter is naturally no exception.

Roger and Bonnie "coincidentally" took the same mission to go to the depths of the mud swamp nearly a hundred miles south of the capital to eliminate a group of rotten-finned murlocs that had recently entrenched there.

For Roger, it doesn't matter what task is drawn, it must be completed anyway.However, it is always a pleasure to be able to walk with a beautiful female swordsmanship teacher.Thinking of staying with the beautiful and fit female knight day and night for a period of time in the future, Roger is looking forward to this trial very much.

The only thing that bothers Roger a little is that there are five or six other students accompanying him on this mission, which ruins his and Bonnie's two-person world.In fact, this is also a very normal thing. After all, it is impossible for only two people to draw the same task.Although these tasks are simple, they cannot be completed by two people. A team of students must participate.

What Roger didn't expect was that all the other students in the same group were deliberately arranged.Before the task was drawn, these people knew that they would be in the same group as Roger and Bonnie, and they all knew exactly why.

Without knowing it, Roger and Bonnie embark on a trip to the Sludge Swamp.After leaving the city of Mandos, everyone headed south all the way.Roger and Bonnie walk in the front, and behind them are other members with ulterior motives.

Not long after Roger and his party left Mandos City, another group of adventurers walked out of the city gate.In addition to two magicians in robes, these people also had several adventurers with weapons.Their destination is also the mud swamp in the south, but this is definitely not a coincidence, but to complete the task ordered by someone.

At this moment, none of these people, including Roger, thought that this trip to the mud swamp would eventually develop in a completely unexpected direction, and the final result was beyond anyone's expectation.
