Although there were some twists and turns, Roger was quite satisfied with the outcome of this trial. Not only did he get one step closer to the title of knight, he also gained a lot of soul power in the process of completing the trial, and he was able to build many castles.
The materials needed for construction even included a few bottles of primary potions and some magic scrolls. More importantly, Roger also got Bonnie's sincerity. Although the two of them have not yet broken through the last line of defense, Roger believes that this will happen sooner or later.
Just a problem.
Compared with the many benefits gained from the trial, Roger's improvement in strength was mediocre. After returning to the knight school, he still trained as hard as before, but he could never make significant progress and break through the obstacles in front of him.
obstacles, successfully reaching the level of Bronze strength.
"There are still two months until the strength test. I'm afraid...it will be difficult for you to pass if you continue like this." Roger, who was practicing swordsmanship with Bonnie, frowned in embarrassment and said: "You are so good at martial arts."
My understanding is mediocre to begin with, but to reach the bronze level in such a short period of time, alas..."
At the end, the female knight ended her words with a sigh, which made Roger couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. He knew very well that Bonnie was being soft-spoken when she said that her understanding of martial arts was generally poor. In fact, she probably had a very poor understanding.
Yes. Except for the obvious progress during the period when I first obtained Lawrence's "Compendium of Dragon Slaying Swordsmanship", the progress has become slower and slower, and there has been almost no progress recently. If this continues, it will be impossible to
Reach bronze strength before the strength test.
Thinking of this, Roger couldn't help but feel very irritated. He didn't want to wait another three years. There were many powerful noble ministers in Mandos City, and there were many people who had ill intentions towards Roger, so they kept him here.
It feels very depressing. If he has to live here for another three years, Roger would rather go on adventures across the continent, which can not only improve his strength but also achieve freedom, which is much better than staying in some knight school.
"Are you anxious? Just when Roger was secretly worried, the voice of the Castle Commander suddenly rang in his mind: "I really don't know whether merging with you is a good thing or a bad thing. Come to me if you have any difficulties. You forgot the three
Can a primary training ground be built in a level castle?"
Roger has never been used to searching for knowledge that originally belonged to others in his own mind. After hearing Castle Hub's words, he subconsciously asked: "What training ground?"
"Supreme God, who on earth is this!" The Castle Master sighed exaggeratedly, and then said at an extremely fast speed: "The training ground can consume the power of your soul to improve your strength. The primary training ground can upgrade you to bronze at the highest level.
Advanced strength!"
"There is such a good thing!" Roger smiled happily after hearing this, and then said to the Castle Master bitterly: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? You really don't know how to behave!"
"I am not a human being!" the Castle Priest retorted confidently, which made Roger choke.
Now that there are buildings that can enhance his strength, Roger is no longer in a hurry to train, but begins to collect the materials needed to build a primary training ground.
Anyway, it was still early at this time, so Roger hurriedly asked for leave from Bonnie and rushed to the market in Mandos City for a crazy purchase. When passing by the Duke's Palace, Roger took Lisa with him. Recently, he was not with
Bonnie trained hard together, learning various dance steps and etiquette from Anna. She really neglected this gentle and lovely maid, so she just took this opportunity to make up for it.
Needless to say, Lisa was in a good mood as she was rarely alone with her master. Xiao Nizi looked around in the market with a sweet smile, and ran back to Roger from time to time, smiling softly and telling him what new things she had just arrived.
Seeing the girl's cute and non-pretentious behavior, Roger's mood also became brighter, and he secretly decided to take Lisa out to play more often in the future, so as to see the girl's bright smile more often.
But what Roger didn't notice was that the beautiful and lovely Lisa had attracted the attention of many people in the market. Of course, most people looked at the lively girl with admiration, and some people inevitably had a crush on Roger.
I was extremely jealous, thinking to myself how pleasant it would be if this little maid was my own.
But most people just think about it in their hearts and don't dare to take any actual actions. After all, Mandos City is the capital of the kingdom. Even if you are a powerful noble minister, you will not do it in public.
You have raped someone else's maid. If this kind of thing gets out, no matter how high your status is, you will be despised.
However, there will be a very small number of people who don't understand this truth. At this time, there is a pair of wretched eyes staring closely at Lisa's petite body full of youthful vitality, with eyes full of greed and evil.
Roger didn't notice that someone was secretly coveting his pretty maid. He didn't just take Lisa out for fun today, he also had more important things to do.
Roger took Lisa all the way through the market. He found the materials needed to build the training ground and bought them without hesitation. Silver, fine iron, wood, stone, fine emeralds and rare coniferous ironwood were all the same.
A lot of land was bought by Roger and the merchants sent it directly to the Duke's Palace.
Some of these materials are expensive, and buying them all cost Roger more than 10,000 gold coins. Fortunately, Alonso III gave Roger a gold coin as a reward, otherwise he really couldn't afford such a large expense.
.
Of course, while doing the crazy shopping, Roger didn't forget to buy something for Lisa. Of course, what he bought were gadgets that girls like, such as small pink bags and cute earrings made of silver.
Dolls that shake their own heads, etc.
Although they were all worthless things, Lisa seemed very happy. In the girl's memory, this was the first time the master gave her gifts. Lisa didn't care about the value of these gifts at all, as long as they were given by Roger.
It is very precious to her.
Different from the happy Lisa, Roger is a little depressed. Although he has gained a lot today, there is still a crucial material that he has not bought. This device called "Small Puppet Heart" is
One of the most important materials for a training ground. If you can't get a small puppet heart, you can't even think about building a training ground. Roger shopped almost the entire market but didn't see this device, and of course he was very disappointed.
Roger was not someone who would give up easily. He walked into one of the largest stores and asked the boss: "Boss, do you sell small puppet hearts here?"
"Sir, do you want to buy a small puppet heart?" The store owner shook his head at Roger and said, "This is too difficult, I'm afraid you have to give up this idea!"
