Mage Lord: The Tech Tree is Skewed by Me

Whoosh——

The sharp arrows shot through the air, like the sickle of the God of Death, nailing the black pine not far away.

Good archery skills!

Todd clapped his hands excitedly and couldn't help but praise loudly.

But then he seemed to realize something was wrong, and turned around in a sullen voice. The dark-faced Lord Viscount instantly came into view, and the colleagues around him also looked at him like a silly roe deer.

Good archery skills?

Leon took out an arrow from the quiver and asked calmly.

To know,

He was out for hunting, not target shooting.

The object Leon was aiming at just now was not the pine wood that had stood in place for decades, but the elk and goose that had just been frightened away dozens of meters away.

Not good, not good……

Todd quickly added.

Leon shook his head helplessly: If you really can't speak, then don't speak.

He bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and took aim at the fat body escaping not far away for a long time. He finally put down the bow and arrow in his hand: Archery is really not suitable for me.

Turning the horse's head, Leon gave up the plan of hunting in person: I want two pairs of elk and goose antlers.

…

As the lord of the Thorn Territory and the entire Antolia, Leon has already had the consciousness of being a noble.

Although weaving moon velvet can bring a lot of wealth to the territory, it cannot be rushed or rushed.

then,

Taking advantage of the leisure before the cold winter, Leon naturally turned his attention to his golden finger.

Leon has never stopped exploring his golden fingers.

For him, it was not only a treasure trove of knowledge, but also a basis for managing his territory.

The scientific instruments taken out from the ancient archives showed Leon the value of this treasure house in just a few days.

No matter how hard Leon racked his brains, he still couldn't figure out why that strange machine that looked ordinary and was almost entirely made of wood, stone and gold-plated gears could play a magical role like an encyclopedia.

He didn't understand, so he chose to read.

The books in the ancient archives are numerous and messy, and the sound of shadow monsters eating the black mist is equally annoying.

Fortunately, almost all the objects and books existing in the archives can be taken back to the real world like scientific instruments, allowing Leon to read them quietly by the fireplace in the room.

Due to the scientific instruments, the floor where Leon's room is located has become a forbidden area in the castle under the order of the young viscount.

No one is allowed to set foot except for personal attendants and core personnel of the territory such as Aaron and Todd.

Many people have seen with their own eyes the scientific instruments placed in Leon's room, but no one has ever had any doubts about it.

Although in Leon's self-perception, he is just a fledgling mage apprentice.

But in the eyes of everyone in Antolia...

My master is a mage!

He is also a mage who has studied in Parma City for many years and has experience of study abroad!

Is it normal to come up with some machine tools commonly used by mages? It’s normal to have a storage ring in your hand, right?

All the unusual things seem so reasonable under Leon's identity as a mage.

Even without Leon having to explain the scientific instruments that appeared out of thin air, everyone had already completed the closed loop of their thoughts.

The reason why Leon went to hunt elk and geese outside the city was definitely not a whim or a whim, but an idea that came to him after he stuffed the antlers hanging on the wall of the room into the scientific machine.

After stuffing the moon mushroom into the scientific machine, Leon obtained the papyrus recording the weaving method of moon velvet.

As a result, the young Viscount showed his unparalleled ability to demolish homes in front of everyone.

Since even the mediocre moon mushroom can become Antolia's future cash cow, what about other things?

Adhering to the concept of true knowledge through practice, the bearskin rug in the room and the antlers hanging on the wall became raw materials for his scientific instruments.

Even the wooden bed where Leon himself slept had a corner cut off from the edge.

It was during this process that the antlers of the elk and goose successfully entered Leon's field of vision.

The black pine forest on the east side of the Thorn Territory is home to a variety of creatures that change under the influence of the black mist, and elk and geese are one of them.

They have antlers as big as elk and a body as fat as a dodo. They cannot fly, but the antlers on their heads are their sharpest weapons against natural enemies.

Coupled with the eyesight of less than ten meters of visibility, this special creature has become the most famous forest destroyer in the black pine forest.

But what Leon cares about is not the plump goose legs underneath them, but the antlers on their heads!

That is an excellent material for making a staff!

As a solid mage apprentice, Leon already has his own staff, an oak staff inlaid with sapphires.

But in the process of looking through the archives' books these days, Leon came into contact with a broader world - ancient magic!

Ratel raised the staff in his hand, and in an instant, ice and snow covered the world. The howling cold wind pierced the soldiers' thin armor, and the burning flames exuded a chill like ice and snow.

This is the description of the priest in the history books of the archives.

Priest is what the ancestors called the mage.

This is the conclusion Leon came to after reading dozens of books about magic.

Even though the political power established by the ancestors thousands of years ago has long since collapsed, no one can deny that the priests, or mages, of that era were far more powerful than they are today.

The ancestors could use powerful magic to walk in the sky, and even used the power of mages to tear a terrifying crack in the earth.

This made Leon, who was accustomed to the low-demon world in front of him, feel a little unreal.

Immediately afterwards,

A strong curiosity about ancient magic emerged in his heart.

No one can restrain their pursuit of power, especially Leon, who is a time traveler.

According to the records in the books, a wide variety of ancient magic texts and ancestors' staffs of different materials together created a prosperous age for priests thousands of years ago.

What was the difference between the staffs of the ancestors? Does the power of the priests come from those powerful staffs or the ancient magic texts in the books?

Countless questions lingered in Leon's mind.

Leon didn't know the answers to these questions, so...he chose the elimination method.

The complexity of ancient magic texts cannot be sorted out by Leon in a day or two.

Since there are traces of elk and geese activities around the territory, they will first kill the geese and take the horns, and then create a brand new staff of their own according to the method of making staffs in the archives.

Only in this way, maybe he can gradually get closer to the answer that seems to be the most correct.
