Arcane Universe - Chapter34

Walking on this quiet forest road, Feng Chou finally had a chance to sort out the gains he had just gained in the underground fortress battlefield.

First of all, the "power of the soul". He took the risk of attaching Qiankun Pagoda to the tiger cub that was used as bait, hoping to fish in troubled water and absorb some power of the soul.

It turned out that his risk was worth it. Qiankun Pagoda told him that in that battle, the Reincarnation Mirror had absorbed a total of 7663 standard units of the power of the soul, which was enough to open the highest time acceleration in the Universe in the Tower for more than two years.

Secondly, he took the opportunity to collect a lot of high-quality weapons and armors left by Drow when Simon and others did not pay attention to him. In order to collect the armors, Feng Chou even collected dozens of corpses of Drow's priests and high-ranking warriors.

The best equipment on the battlefield certainly belonged to the three priests, followed by more than a dozen high-ranking warriors. The two spider elves' equipment were also high-level alchemy items. Next, more than 30 middle-ranking priests' equipment were also good.

Of course, the equipment of the three priests belonged to Simon and Anrui. The two also took a lot of weapons from the hands of the spider elves and high-ranking warriors of Drow. The weapons were light and easy to take away.

Feng Chou used Qiankun Pagoda to collect things. As long as he put his hand on it, Qiankun Pagoda could put the items into the Universe in the Tower according to his will. It was very fast.

He took the opportunity when Simon and others were concentrating on collecting high-ranking equipment, and put some high-ranking warriors, middle-ranking priests, and their corpses into the Universe in the Tower.

The two spider elves did not dare to move because it was too obvious.

At first, Feng Chou did not pay attention to the simple equipment left by the tiger man, but Qiankun Pagoda reminded him that some of the bone weapons, shields, and simple metal weapons and shields left by the tiger man seemed to have a special energy reaction.

Feng Chou thought that since he had a lot of space, it would be a waste if he didn't take it. So, he collected a lot of the simple equipment left behind by the high-level Tigermen.

When they finally left, Simon and Anrui were both carrying large bags. Only Feng Chou was clean and nimble. He only took a clean set of clothes and an intact set of armor from Drow and put them on. He also picked up two high-level warriors' scimitars and hung them on his waist.

Simon thought that Feng Chou, who was born a noble, would not be interested in these bloodstained equipment, so he did not say much.

In fact, Feng Chou's harvest was much more than theirs.

According to Qiankun Pagoda's calculations, he had collected more than 70 Drow's heavy scimitars, more than 20 sets of medium armors, and more than 10 sets of light armors.

The so-called medium armor was a custom-made plate armor with a helmet and body armor. The limbs were chainmail, which could protect the head and body and ensure the flexibility of the limbs.

Drow generally did not use a full body plate heavy armor.

Light armor was a kind of armor that had two layers of leather armor that had been treated with alchemy and embedded with metal plates. This kind of armor's defensive power wasn't weak, and when moving, it wouldn't make a sound like a medium armor.

In order to make it easier to escape, Feng Chou and the other two all chose to wear light armor.

In addition to these Drow's equipment, Feng Chou also collected a lot of bones and crude metal equipment used by the Tigermen.

At that time, Feng Chou had only listened to Qiankun Pagoda's suggestion and did it in passing. Now that he thought about it, these things should be extraordinary.

Almost all the dead Drow's were smashed to death by heavy weapons. With the powerful strength of the Tigermen's advanced barbarian warriors, if it were ordinary bones, they would have been smashed to pieces by the metal armor. But these bone weapons were all intact. Some of the bone shields were cut by the Drow's heavy scimitars, but even the marks were very vague.

The metal weapons in the Tigermen's hands were also very crude. It gave the impression that they were made by randomly digging a hole in the mud. It was just that they had a convenient shape and could be used as a hammer.

Some of the metal shields were also like that. It was as if they had randomly dug a shallow hole and poured a metal solution into it to cast a flat metal block.

These metals didn't look like they were made of iron. They looked dark, but their reflections were mixed with dense golden light spots.

Although the appearance was ugly, these metals were definitely not ordinary. Because of the fierce battle, there were no marks on the surface of these metal weapons.

The heavy scimitars in Drow's hands were all made of high-grade black steel, and some were even made of secondary arcane steel. With the addition of alchemy processing, their hardness and sharpness were so high that ordinary steel was like wood in front of steel. The fact that they could not leave a mark on these metals showed that these metals were not ordinary.

The value of the equipment left by the Tigermen was not easy to judge, but the value of Drow's equipment was definitely not low. Simon, as a level 6 warrior and level 3 rogue, was already considered an elite among human warriors. When he saw these equipment, his eyes almost shone. When he left, he looked at the equipment all over the ground. His face was twisted, and he felt like his heart was bleeding.

After calculating the income, Feng Chou's mood, which had been extremely bad after seeing Leo's father's territory, gradually improved.

Feng Chou did not find it difficult to understand why his mood was affected by Leo's memory. A person's personality itself was shaped by character and memory. Accepting the memory naturally meant accepting part of the other person's personality.

The three of them followed the road to the knight's territory.

This territory belonged to Sir Cecil's family.

This was an old family of knights. After several generations of development, the size of Sir Cecil's territory had far exceeded the lower limit of a knight's territory. According to Qiankun Pagoda's calculations, this territory had about thirty thousand mu of arable land. Among the knights, it was considered to be above average in size.

After the Pedro River entered the Cecil family's territory, it would be called the Cecil River.

The Cecil family took advantage of the difference in topography in the territory. In the upper reaches of the Cecil River, they built a simple dam and diverted the raised river water into several channels. Taking advantage of the topography, they cleverly built a set of irrigation system. This allowed more than half of the arable land in the territory to be fully irrigated.

The Cecil family's castle was also much larger than Leo's father's castle.

Leo's father's castle walls were less than a hundred meters long, but the Cecil castle walls were almost three hundred meters long. There were nearly three hundred families living inside, with a population of more than a thousand. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a small town.

The town's walls were the stone walls that Leo's father dreamed of.

At the center of the town was a real castle, not the simple one in Leo's father's territory that looked like a defensive tower.

It was a square-shaped stone castle with sides of about 30 meters and a height of about 30 meters.

At the four corners of the castle were four small square towers that protruded out of the castle walls. They could provide long-range support from the sides of the castle walls.

The top of the four small square towers was higher than the entire castle and was the highest point of the town. There were four large ballistae placed there that could provide powerful firepower support to the town's outer walls.

The construction cost of such a standard small castle was about a hundred thousand crowns. Only a knight's family like the Cecil family could afford it.
