The ideal is full and the reality is skinny.
Although Phyllis set various restrictions on Su Lun and let Su Lun suppress her strength at the same level as her, the final battle was no accident. Su Lun still won, and it can be said that it was very easy to win. Although at the same level of strength, there are restrictions on Hathaway's spells, Su Lun's rich experience, skilled combat skills and combat intuition cannot be limited.
So finally, Phyllis was taught a lesson by Suellen, and had to promise him a condition.
"Now you know the difference," said Suellen, looking at Phyllis reluctantly.
"Dragon blood baptism is very powerful, but you don't master your strength. It's normal to be defeated by me. The physical quality of dragon warlocks is no worse than that of soldiers, so combat training is necessary."
"Next, I'll teach you swordsmanship. Of course, it's not just swordsmanship. The Zhuo elf martial arts here are also very good. There are those semi elf Rangers. You need to take time to practice with them every day. When you can defeat them all, even if you graduate."
Although Su Lun's main weapon is the long halberd, he has not put down his swordsmanship, so his swordsmanship is still very good. Moreover, the Florentine royal family also collected a lot of swordsmanship, such as the famous white crow swordsmanship, cross swordsmanship, rock swordsmanship, etc.
"And you, don't think that only Phyllis needs training, and you also need it." Su Lun glanced at Hathaway and others nearby and said.
"Although you are spell casters, your melee strength is average. You may encounter any situation on the battlefield. Once you are close, you often have no time to cast spells. You must master swordsmanship whether you are familiar with the enemy's attack methods or used to attack."
"And when you run out of spells, you can only kill the enemy with a long sword!"
Generally speaking, in the wizard college, orthodox wizards will study close combat. A qualified combat wizard has not weak close combat ability. In addition, there are some deformation schools among wizards, which can directly become some powerful races, and some change spells can turn a wizard into a hand to hand madman.
Even some radical wizard schools claim that a wizard who can't fight close is not a good wizard. It's better to be the type like Gandalf. One fireball in the left hand and one homeopathic chop in the right hand. A good wizard should be able to cut all the way from one end of the battlefield to the other with a stick and a long sword.
......
Northern Wilderness, death canyon.
This valley that ordinary people have only heard of is located in the depths of the northern wasteland. The surrounding ecological environment is extremely complex. There are sunflowers, cannibals, mutant monsters and so on. At the same time, there are a wide variety of poisonous insects and beasts. The terrain here is also very dangerous, the mountain walls are steep, and there are often falling stones, Even a thumb sized stone can hit a big bag on the head.
Even the best adventurers in this place don't want to come.
But these are not the most deadly, the most dangerous creatures are the undead!
In this valley, a large number of dead people are sleeping. It is said that there is a dead Lord sleeping deep in the valley, but so far everyone has seen it.
Su Lun knew that the legend was true. The Lord of the dead was sealed here by ancient arcane masters, but Su Lun didn't know why those arcane masters didn't kill the Lord of the dead, but sealed it.
But since then, the originally beautiful valley has changed. The power of this dead creature radiates the whole valley. Then the creatures in the valley began to change, and the dead began to be born here.
With the passage of time, there are more and more mutant animals and undead in the death valley, and it becomes very dangerous here. Some powerful undead will basically fall into a deep sleep, but as long as there is too much movement in the valley, these powerful undead creatures will wake up.
Almost every year, some monsters or adventurers who accidentally enter them die inside. Fortunately, the death valley is far away from the north city of the town, thousands of kilometers. Unless the Lord of the dead breaks the seal, it will not affect here.
At this time, a fierce fight suddenly came from the death valley, and then several adventurers rushed out of the valley. Behind them, dozens of undead were chasing after them.
One of the adventurers took a scroll out of his arms, tore it open with heartache on his face, and then suddenly threw it back.
"Boom!"
As soon as the scroll fell to the ground, a large number of flames rose directly. In an instant, a fire wall appeared on the ground. Several chasing undead rushed directly into the sea of fire. The flames burned violently, and the undead creatures soon turned into a ball of fire. After seeing the wall of fire, the other undead creatures had to stop and roar at the adventurers in the distance.
"Shit, I've lost a lot this time. This is the magic scroll I use to save my life. I'll take the big head after I go back!" said the adventurer who had just used the magic scroll with heartache.
"Blair, thanks to your scroll, you can get another one this time," said another adventurer who should be the leader.
"Boss, we should make a lot of money this time. We collected 16 ghost mushrooms, ghost grass and many other magical plants. Although this place is dangerous, the harvest is really big!" another thin wanderer said excitedly.
"There are a lot of good things in this place, but it's too dangerous. The scar almost broke inside. Now he's seriously injured. It's estimated that he'll have to rest for a month. He can't come here next time," said the lead adventurer.
"Cough, Blair, thank you, or I won't get out this time!" another pale middle-aged man gasped for a moment.
"Hey, hey, Quint, it's okay. You saved my life at the beginning, didn't you?" Blair said with a smile.
"I'll have a good rest after going back this time! Cough!" Quint coughed violently, and some sick flushing appeared on his face.
......
Time passed quickly. A month has passed in the twinkling of an eye. After staying in the north wind tower for a period of time, Su Lun went to the deep water city. After the deep water city obtained the trade of Yancheng port, the second fleet finally returned, and this time there are more than a dozen merchant ships of other caravans in addition to the fleet of deep water city.
After more than two months of communication, the deep-water port has been known by more and more people. Su Lun's stronghold in the deep-water port is indispensable. Last time, Su Lun traded in Yancheng port with his fleet, leaving a lot of sucrose and honey. The sales of this luxury goods are very popular. Those information sensitive businessmen began to inquire about the news of deepwater city one by one when they learned that the sucrose and honey had been transported from deepwater city.
After learning that this is a newly opened port city, each one has his eyes shining. In the eyes of these businessmen, this represents an undeveloped market. If no one knew the route to deepwater City, these businessmen would be eager to go.
Fortunately, these merchants did not wait long. The second batch of fleets from the deep water city arrived at the port. Therefore, when the caravan returned, a large number of merchants directly sent a ship to follow the fleet to the deep water port.
Due to the arrival of a large number of merchants, the deep water city suddenly became very lively. A large number of goods were transported for trading. All kinds of goods already prepared in the deep water city were sold out. Even many caravans established warehouses here to trade for a long time.
These businessmen were also very surprised when they knew that this was a wasteland in the north. They were very surprised when they learned that the Principality of Beifeng had opened up business routes from here to the kingdom of Florence and the Kingdom closer to the West. Then it's even hotter for the port.
Obviously, they see the potential of this trade route.
Sulun returned to the north town with the caravan, but when he came to the city, he found something unusual. When the caravan entered the city, many people in sulenfa city were coughing, and many people lined up at the gate of the hospital.
"What's going on?"
Suellen looked a little dignified. Seeing a low-level official recording the tax of a store not far away, Su Lun went directly to inquire.
"Your Majesty... Your majesty!" the official immediately became nervous and stammered when he saw Suellen.
"Don't salute!" Su Lun stopped him directly, and then asked, "what's the matter with the hospital? Why are there so many people lining up outside?"
"Your Majesty... Those people are ill, have a fever and cough, but there are not enough doctors here. They can only line up here," said the grass-roots official.
"Doctors are not enough?" Su Lun was slightly stunned and immediately responded that there are really few doctors in this era, because almost every city has a temple. Usually, when a rich man is ill, he can go directly to the temple. The priest can cure it by casting a spell to eliminate the epidemic disease.
But this is money. Even if you use the lowest magic skill, it costs a lot of money. At least five jinnars are needed. Such a sum of money can be taken out by several civilians. Many times in this era, the poor can only fight hard at home when they are sick. It's OK to carry it, but if they can't fight it, they will die. Of course, in order to develop believers, every church will go to the slum to treat several poor people for free, basically about five at a time, and will carry out various publicity in order to make more people believe.
For example, the residents of Zhenbei city have some money, and the price of the hospital is not expensive, but the number is a little less. But this is very good. At least ordinary people and the poor can see a doctor.
