Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords.

Chapter 317 Overthrow of the Derby Regime
"I once dreamed of becoming a court wizard, but in the end I could only become a junior magician. It is impossible for me to improve in this life." He stroked the magic book with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "Powerful and destructive magic is not for me. I can only find another way to study those ancient marginal magics."

"Since you can't be a leading magician, why not be a practical magic scholar? After all, magic is meant to serve people, and there is no distinction between high and low."

He smiled and put the book back.

"I understand. I used to plan my life to be a poet." Levi bent his arms and looked at his well-developed biceps with a complicated expression. "It's a pity that when God gives a person an excellent talent in a certain aspect, he will take away other talents to supplement it. Maybe this is the so-called way of balance. Strength and knowledge cannot coexist after all."

The two looked at each other and invited each other to go to the garden at the back for a discussion.

Clearly defined fields have been opened up here, planted with exotic flowers and plants. Each plant exudes a faint scent of magic, making the elemental power here unusually active.

Ever since the Lord practiced the "Book of Holy Words", he has been able to feel the elemental power around him and is therefore extremely sensitive to it.

"You did the telepathic communication at the city gate earlier through magic, right?"

The two sat down in a pavilion in the center of the garden. Levi took the tea handed to him by a beautiful maid with a mole on the corner of her mouth, took a sip and asked.

"Yes, it's a very simple spell." Ferro nodded.

"Can I learn it?" the Lord asked bluntly.

He never minded wasting some time learning this kind of magic to add fuel to the fire.

"I think it should be possible even with holy light, right?" Ferro said, a little unsure.

Although holy light and magic power are both elemental attributes, the difference between them is even greater than that between ants and elephants.

But after all, it is not a profound spell. As long as you know some principles, you can probably do it even with holy light.

Soon the prince explained the detailed principles to the lord.

When Levi heard this, he was stunned. Isn’t this just the cardboard microphone he used to make when he was a child?
He tried to use the holy light to condense the shape of a paper box with a voice transmission, with one end pointed at himself, and the other end, which had expanded several times, was aimed at Zamanzi, who was squatting at the edge of the garden and teasing ants.

Levi called out softly.

A voice several times louder immediately sounded from the other side.

"Fool!"

Zat immediately looked up at the pavilion in the center of the garden in doubt. When he found that his boss was not looking here at all, he touched the back of his head with a puzzled look on his face.

"Lord Levi is truly a genius!" Ferro exclaimed in surprise.

He thought that even if this little trick was simple, it would take several attempts, but he didn't expect to succeed in just one try.

"But as for imitating other people's voices, you have to learn it yourself from books," he continued.

"Okay, I'll go and have a look when I have a chance." Levi nodded.

"I see that you are studying the agricultural school, Ferro. I wonder if you know the spell of soil fertility?"

The Lord remembered something and asked casually.

It can be said that Gaoya Fort has a good harvest of crops, and this spell has played a vital role. In addition, the flower-growing family has the farming attribute in their bones, so it is inevitable that they will pay special attention to this spell.

"This is a school of magic that is underestimated by everyone!" Ferro said seriously, with a hint of regret: "This school originated from the ancient Mountain Kingdom, but this magic, which I think is the most magical, was completely lost after the fall of the Mountain Kingdom."

"Oh? How magical is it?" The lord did not expect there would be any extra gains, and asked calmly.

"You know, I once saw in a miscellany that a wizard from the School of Agriculture used this spell to cultivate Moon Orchid!"

"The Moon Orchid is a magical plant that is often used to make various magical potions. It is extremely demanding on the growing environment and can only be seen on the top of snowy mountains. It cannot be cultivated artificially at all."

"But this agronomy wizard cultivated it in his own yard using soil fertility techniques."

"You may not know how difficult this is. In other words, it is as difficult as growing rye in a desert without a drop of water!" Ferro stood up and walked to a corner of the garden, which was surrounded by glass and filled with ice. There was only a beautiful orchid inside.

Compared with the other crappy plants that are squeezed into a hole around it, it is treated like the king of flowers.

"No matter what ancient records I looked up later, they all proved that this incident was recorded in reality."

"This is the Moon Orchid that I bought at a high price. Unfortunately, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't make it survive." Ferro stroked the glass cover with one hand and sighed.

"What if, I mean what if." Levi coughed twice and emphasized that he was just asking casually: "What if we have this spell, we can cultivate large tracts of precious magical plants, and then sell them at high prices to those wizards who regard money as dirt?"

There was once a saying circulating in the Seven Kingdoms that every highly skilled magician was a pauper.

It’s not that they don’t have money, but a huge amount of money is spent on magic, causing every magician to live a very tight life.

As we all know, the luxury of researching and learning magic is simply a waste of money, but this is something that cannot be compromised in the slightest.

These magicians are all very rich, but they spend money like water.

So some magicians have to rely on a country to get money to continue studying magic.

"Of course there is no problem. If you can do it, you will become the richest person in the Seven Kingdoms." Ferro smiled, "But if is always if, it is as far-fetched as a dream."

"Yes, this is indeed just a hypothesis." The lord smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.

"Since this spell is so powerful, it stands to reason that this agricultural school would have allowed it to be passed down, right? It wouldn't be possible that not even a single word was passed down." After finishing the old topic, Levi continued to ask.

"Unfortunately, this is the truth." Ferro shook his head. "The Mountain Kingdom fell so quickly and so strangely that none of these spells were passed down. There is only a thin page of records about this country, which is pitifully small. We only know that the god they believe in is the goddess of nature."

"It can be said that the effect of this spell is more than just that. If it is applied to agronomy, then..." Ferro turned and came to a small field. The black soil, which was only a blade wide, was covered with emerald green grass: "The entire medieval continent will no longer have to worry about having enough food, and there will no longer be people starving to death in the Seven Kingdoms. It will be an era where everyone has enough food and clothing!" These were obviously very calm words, but they were spoken with an inexplicably heavy sense of surprise, and at the same time were full of yearning meaning.

"Indeed, if we can cultivate all the magical plants and apply them to crops, it is not an exaggeration to increase the yield several times. It is common for them to resist the harsh environment."

Levi nodded.

I thought of the wheat planted in Gaoya Castle last year. The weather in the wilderness has been bad in the past two years, and it has snowed almost all year round. As a result, with the help of this spell, the yield has not decreased and is even higher than expected.

Levi also discovered that this spell even had the ability to optimize crops. The wheat stored in the warehouse was larger and fuller than that purchased from Bailiu City, and even the taste was well received by everyone in Gaoya Castle.

Unfortunately, the only one who has learned this spell so far is the kobold Neil, and it is already his limit to be responsible for taking care of the fields that have been developed so far.

Levi also knew that although this prince was a veteran in officialdom, he was not like those arrogant pigs. Instead, he cared deeply about the peasants.

Otherwise, we cannot say that everyone has enough food and clothing.

I heard from Sikai that the other party was a prince without a large fiefdom, only a manor and a few hills around it.

But in other people's territories, I heard that even farmers can wear thick cotton clothes in winter, and even have spare money to prepare gifts for their children on the winter solstice.

Their living standards are several levels higher than those of farmers in other places.

Li Wei looked at the prince deeply for a few times, stroking his chin and thinking about something. It seemed that the agricultural manager of Gaoya Castle had not been found yet...

He did not expect that his actions were seen by Ferro, causing the prince's hand stroking his mustache to freeze and he shivered uncontrollably.

The two returned to the pavilion, and Levi found that this guy had a sense of fear in his every move. Although he was confused, he immediately attributed it to the fact that his domineering aura was too obvious and frightened the other party.

"Fero, why don't we let those guys rehearse their lines?" After a while, the lord finally couldn't help but asked.

"That's unnecessary. Those people know that we are fabricating more charges for this matter." Ferro smiled, feeling as if he was in control of the situation. "But what does it matter if they know? As long as the person is in our hands, how can we not still depend on us?"

"As long as we keep holding on to this matter, we can muddy the waters even further."

"However, the success of this plan is still thanks to you, sir. A legendary strongman was involved in this incident. I think some people are so anxious that they can't sleep now."

"If there are two tigers and a fox on a mountain, the ambitious Greedy Wolf will definitely instigate the other two tigers to fight, and watch the show from the sidelines to get more prey." Ferro raised three fingers: "The mountain is Debe, and you and His Majesty the King are the tigers. As for Greedy Wolf..."

Ferro smiled, saying everything.

"Someone is plotting something bad, trying to sow discord between His Majesty the King of Derby and the Lord of Highcliff Castle, overthrowing the Derby regime and changing the world." The Lord snorted twice, slapped the table, and said domineeringly: "As the Marquis of Derby, I will never allow such a thing to happen. Even if I have to break steel, I must find the culprit and punish him!"

He didn't expect that such a simple matter could be made into such a fuss. He could only sigh that Ferro was indeed a veteran in the officialdom, and he admired Florina's ability to judge people even more.

After all, the other party doesn't have a system that can view attributes like him.

……

Not far outside of Gonda, beside the Lionheart Lake, sits a manor surrounded by towering trees and gorgeous gardens.

The main building of the manor is an elegant white main building. The exterior walls of the main building are covered with vines, making it look simple and elegant.

The front door of the manor is a wide cobblestone path lined with neatly trimmed shrubs and blooming flower beds filled with roses, lilies and tulips.

This is Bedoyer's private territory, where he can stay away from the hustle and bustle of the palace and enjoy supreme power.

He doesn't have to endure a bunch of people pointing fingers at him. Here he is the only king and everyone has to obey his orders. Those who disobey will be beaten to death or fed to the dogs.

But at this moment, the prince was running around in his own territory in a panic.

Ba Jin lowered his head slightly, but his eyes were secretly looking at the group of maids in the room. These maids only wore aprons to cover their bodies in front, and the back was white. The prince's two hairless legs were constantly walking back and forth on the ground, and it seemed that he was not wearing any pants.

It's hard to overstate what just happened in this room.

However, he was not surprised that the prince did not inherit the great talent and wisdom of His Majesty in the first half of his life, but instead learned the debauchery of the second half of his life.

I heard that he also had an affair with one of his sisters.

"Why didn't you stop them?!"

After a long time, Bedoyer drove the maids out and started questioning them without asking any questions.

"Your Highness, even those guys from the Holy Sith Kingdom, with their several iron men, couldn't stop Lord Levi at the city gate, let alone me?" The sheriff who had hurried over to deliver the message said with a look of grievance.

In his heart, he had already started to use all kinds of country slang. If he were to stop them, even a hundred lives wouldn't be enough.

"Damn Kro, I really want to chop him to death right now. Why would he bother to provoke the people from High Cliff Castle for no reason!" Bedoyle was very angry.

Although he was not very fond of the Lord of Highcliff Castle because of Fatih's incident, he would not take the initiative to offend him.

Now it was obvious that the other party was going to use this as an excuse to deal with him, and he couldn't help but start to panic.

If it were anyone else, he would simply have shown disdain, but this Lord of High Cliff Castle was not only extremely powerful, he also had a very high status and had many supporters among the people.

If a lot of accusations were put upon him, affecting his reputation among the common people, it would be hard to say whether he could keep his position as heir.

After all, there is more than one prince in Debe, and his younger brothers have been coveting the position of heir for a long time.

"Your Highness, Margaret has also been captured." Ba Jin had always placed his hopes on the prince, and now he couldn't leave this ship, so he couldn't help but suggest, "Why not go and find Her Majesty the Queen and give it a try."
