Chapter 49 Recruiting Talents! Dragon Egg Hatching

Duncan didn't expect Anya could give him another surprise!
When he saw that Anya was surrounded by several more followers, he knew that Anya's mission had been accomplished.

But Duncan didn't know that there was an even bigger surprise waiting for him.

Anya is very tight-lipped.

Before the matter was accomplished, she kept silent about it, preparing to quietly deal a heavy blow to the Raven Queen, Triss.

From now on, Anya has stood up!
Anya suffered a heavy loss this time, and even lost a large estate near Rome.

She is not as strong as the Raven Queen - Triss, but she is serious about fighting for the position!

Especially after the Raven Queen Triss summoned members of other witches' covens, Anya's pressure doubled for a while. It goes without saying that the Raven Queen Triss was planning to distract Duncan and prevent him from indulging in Anya's gentle embrace.

Fortunately, Duncan has been busy with government affairs recently and has no time to pay attention to other witches.

To be honest, this kind of thing is necessary, otherwise there is no place to vent stress. But if you are obsessed with women every day, how can you have the energy to do other things? There are only seven women in total, changing one every day. Duncan still knows the importance of things.

——"Agricultural Expert (Follower): An expert in agriculture who can increase agricultural yields and improve the territory's agricultural farming technology."

——"Architect (Follower): Reduces the cost of buildings, improves city layout, and reduces squalor and clutter."

——"Armor Craftsman (Follower): Improves forging skills, allowing you to build large-scale equipment forges and produce military-grade equipment."

——"Judge (Attendant): An official who, after being hired, can improve the law and order of the territory and resolve private conflicts among barbarians through the law."

——"Troop Instructor (Attendant): Retired troop instructors of the Empire can be rehired to strengthen training and improve the marching and combat capabilities of the infantry."

There are five followers in total.

There are four men and one woman. What is surprising is that the architect is a woman. Perhaps she is not valued in the empire.

Dear Anya is back!

I miss you so much.

Every time she comes back, she brings some surprises to Duncan.

Needless to say.

I must reward her well tonight.

On the afternoon of the same day that Anya returned, Severus also returned from Gaul, and he was accompanied by his entourage.

——"Druid (Follower): Maintain the temple sanctuary, strengthen our morale during battle, and help command the Celtic troops."

——"Drunkard (Follower): Strengthens influence. Drunkards can easily spread information in taverns, hotels, poets' boxes, and other places. They all have a first-class drinking capacity and can quickly open up the local situation and spread the information you need."

To put it simply, it means bragging, telling your deeds to everywhere in the pub, but you have to spend money to support such a person, but it won't cost much.

The talents recruited by Raven Queen Triss have also arrived.

This time, in addition to the three temple guards, there was also a target marked as 'Follower'.

——"Librarian (Follower) (1-star gold): Former librarian at the Imperial University. Possessing extensive knowledge, he can assist in the management of the territory and strengthen his influence in the upper class. People with extensive knowledge are always respected."

If the Raven Queen - Triss doesn't make a move, it's fine, but when she does, it's an ace.

This was the first follower with an asterisk mark that Duncan saw. He was a man in his fifties, dressed like a scholar, looked gentle and well-educated, a bit like an ancient Greek philosopher.

He had great respect for Triss, the Raven Queen. After seeing the mess in Southampton, he frowned slightly. He was Greek, and Greece was a civilized country.

It seems that after Duncan took over the territory, many people on the projection page can be marked and converted into followers.

They are different from ordinary people, most of them are people with professional skills.

However, their abilities will only be discovered over time, and if a corresponding follower mark appears, it means that they do possess talent in this area.

You can't fish in troubled waters.

Those who do not meet the professional skill requirements will not have the follower mark appear at all.

This makes Duncan much more relaxed.

He even had time to train the reorganized army, and he found that after an army was reorganized and trained for battle, an additional mark would gradually appear. It was not an asterisk, but a mark of 'Combat Experience +1'.

After focusing, it read, "This unit possesses considerable combat experience, their combat skills honed beyond those of comparable units. A team of experienced veterans is a treasure to the entire nation." [A unit with extensive combat experience is more likely to produce star-level combat units.]

The rate at which this combat experience increases is very slow.

The troops under Duncan's command, namely the General's Guards and the British Legion led by Kveto, have 1 point of combat experience. They were also the main forces in the previous battles.

If the personnel are reorganized and supplemented, the combat experience seems to decrease slightly.

People will die in war.

It is very difficult to accumulate this combat experience, but recently there have indeed been more than ten people transformed into one-star combat units.

Anyone who survives the battlefield of life and death must have some skills.

Night falls.

Anya rode her horse wildly until midnight, and was pierced several times. The grease on the candlesticks was drained out. Finally, she was exhausted and collapsed on the side, falling into a deep sleep.

Duncan felt like it was just a sprinkle of water.

Recently, the effects of the Holy Grail's blood and the giant's power have been superimposed, and his physical fitness has become stronger and stronger. He is no longer afraid of being drained by the witch.

"In one day, the dragon eggs will hatch."

Duncan’s current focus is on Southampton, a port town with a great geographical location and a priority for development.

He would occasionally outsource training to the army, and would also go in himself from time to time, but the effect of his own training was not as good as outsourcing the training.

After reorganizing the foreign mercenary corps, Duncan also sent out his spies.

He hasn't forgotten Scandinavia.

As a lord, Duncan doesn't have enough time to search the world for supernatural monsters, so naturally he sends his men out to investigate.

Who is the most suitable person?
There was no doubt that they were Saxon mercenaries. He first asked them to find out some information about the monsters, specifically which area they were in, and where there were rumors of supernatural monsters. Only after they were confirmed would Duncan set off, so as to avoid wasting time and searching all over the mountains for half a month, only to find nothing.

In the Middle Ages, those supernatural creatures almost became legends.

If Duncan really wanted to look for them himself, he would probably have to travel all over Europe, all the way to Northern and Eastern Europe, before he could possibly find them. They are also gradually fading away.

It’s just a matter of spending a little more money and focusing on efficiency!
It is impossible for the British Isles to be at war every day. What he needs to do now is to learn as much as possible, learn a little about everything, and maybe it will be useful in his future human body.

There was no movement from Merlin's side.

Perhaps because Duncan had settled Duchess Igraine and no longer had to worry about King Arthur's birth, she had become much more obedient. He had heard that King Uther had recently suffered a minor setback on the battlefield. If anything, Duncan always felt that there was something wrong with Igraine's gaze on him, a hint of reverence. The last time he went to Cornwall to recruit riders, she personally brought a group of maids to prepare his room, make his bed, and arrange his daily meals. It could be said that she was completely dedicated, without a trace of the Duchess's airs.

Moros officially became the Duchess of Cornwall and inherited the Duke of Tintagel's estate, but she had no power and was only surrounded by a dozen guards to protect her safety.

Duke Dintagir's inheritance was enough for her to live comfortably for several lifetimes.

Time passed quietly like this.

The next day, Duncan handed over the tasks at hand to others and focused on observing the dragon egg hatching, preparing to load it into the second human body.

Dimensional space.

As Duncan regained consciousness, information began to appear on the projection screen before him.

"Loading human body number two!"

"Break through the dimensional barrier and enter real space."

"Loading complete."

Inside a completely enclosed underground ice cave.

suddenly.

The dragon egg before him began to tremble, and then a young dragon claw broke out of the shell. Its ferocious and tender dragon head poked out, and it opened its mouth and spoke its true name in its natural dragon language: "Augustus!"

So sad.

The moment Duncan loaded in, he knew why his soul compatibility was so low.

He was now crawling on all fours, with wings on his back, a very long neck, hungry and weak, and his soul seemed to be out of sync with his body.

The physical body of the alien life form rejects the human soul form, the degree of compatibility is very low, and the operation is quite inconvenient.

"It's so uncomfortable."

"Who can stand crawling every day?"

Duncan directly entered the dimensional space and used a God's perspective to control the young dragon to gnaw on the dragon eggs. The eggs were hard and tasted bad, and the young dragon was choked to death.

This is attack, this is defense.

This is?

Dragon language?

No! It's a dragon roar!

Dragon roar is simply dragon language magic, a language with supernatural power that can produce certain magical effects when the sound is uttered.

It is now gray, and when you focus your mind, it reads 'Dragon Language: Frost'.

"The magic level in this world seems to be very high?"

Duncan waited for the dragonet's stamina bar to be replenished, and then began to dig a hole. Without digging a hole, he couldn't get out, and he was trapped to death in the underground ice cave.

At this time.

A line of words appeared on the projected page - "It's time for me to go fishing!" (Dragon Clan inherited memory)

The intelligence level of a young dragon is relatively low and is not much stronger than that of a clever beast.

However, they are born with their grandfather, that is, the inherited dragon memory, which contains certain knowledge and instincts that will tell them what to do next.

When you're hungry, catch fish to eat.

This thing is like a task prompt, telling the baby dragons how to grow up step by step, and even telling them how to avoid danger.

"interesting!"

"The talent of the dragon race is truly abnormal!"

Dragon claw shaved ice.

Duncan controlled the baby dragon to dig for a long time and finally fell into the water. It was born with the ability to breathe underwater. The projection page was just like the underwater world. The baby dragon swam more smoothly than walking. Duncan found that he was controlling a human body and might have drowned.

The hands, feet and wings are completely uncoordinated.

attack!

Duncan controlled the second human body to hit the target with one strike, grabbed a fat fish, and then swam upstream.

——"I should eat and have a good sleep."

——"The young dragon is very weak."

——"Hide."

interesting.

Duncan felt that this human body No. 2 was just like the character in the game he played. The dragon clan's inherited memory would automatically prompt him on what to do next.

However, just after eating the fish, the young dragon showed signs of sleepiness, as if it needed to rest.

It hasn't even been a while?
