Chapter 346: Harbinger of War
Chapter 340 – Omen of War
Soon Owen figured out that the so-called special class was a sheep herding class, with only two days of classes a month, and the rest was all self-study.
The rest is self-study. Sheep grazing, eat enough to eat less all depends on their own skills.
If the previous life school has this treatment, Owen is afraid to be able to die of joy, and then enter the society and cry to death, because they can not eat.
Although the class time is short, but is full of dry goods, a legendary alchemist, a master alchemist, up is a variety of theories plus data, if it is replaced by other alchemists in this, I am afraid to kneel to listen.
But for the students other than Owen and Cortana, it is purely a duck listening to thunder, what the hell?
However, with the depth of the course, Owen and Cortana can not keep up, they are smart, but the relevant knowledge system can not keep up, venture into the high end of things will be very difficult, need to spend a lot of time to fill the gap.
Cortana can ask the teacher, Owen also has a group of subordinates, let them help to analyze, he then open the wisdom of the art of copying can be.
In any case, Owen had a lot of time, after trying a few times, he simply traveled back and forth to the Northlands through the Gate Keys, which didn’t delay him from gathering knowledge of the Academy City anyway, and even the Hydra Interest Learning Group was gradually growing under his operation.
It is the bitter Carl, from time to time by his sister into the small black room, first a whip, followed by a variety of props in turn, and finally carried by a group of black tights strong man to send back to the Department of Alchemy, have become a scene of the Academy City, many students have taken this bet, and even specifically come over to spectate.
Nowadays, Karl finally understands that there is no future in fighting alone, so he began to look for people to join forces.
For his younger brother’s growth, Carla was very pleased, in order to give him a boost, pumping harder, and even sent back when he did not leave his top, but also smeared with oil.
Think of a group of wearing black tights gear convex with stuffed bunches of grapes like a strong man, holding up a whip marks all over the body but also smeared with oil handsome man parade, this scene, men look at the hot eyes, women look at the road, you can imagine Karl now in the college city how famous.
Now Karl even put down his father’s revenge, is simply want to kill Carla.
I have to say, in a way Carla succeeded, she succeeded in making her brother forget the hatred of that year, and now there is only a new hatred.
Owen, who helped with a lot of ideas and provided a lot of props in the process, didn’t dare to take credit for it, and kept a very low profile in case he was mistaken for a pervert.
On the contrary, those Hydra minions are more and more free to fly, tights a wear, headgear a wear, that is no one love, and secretly developed a lot of people, after all, when you are surrounded by all the perverts, you will not look out of place.
This is aware of Owen can do nothing, although he did not want to become a group of perverts in the head, the problem is that from the time he made plans for Carla has gone to the point of no return, and then how to prove their innocence is useless, helpless can only hide their identity, through the Carla, the school sister, Obadi, and Braudy, control Hydra interest learning group, and learn one-eyed halogen egg to engage in a grading system, try to avoid their own The identity of the person is discovered.
During this period of time, Owen put most of his energy on the territory, because with the implementation of the Northland nobility enshrinement, many forces within the empire will reach deep into the Northland, although it brings a lot of opportunities to speed up the development of the Northland, but it also brings countless hidden dangers and strife, such as the population of the resources of the competition.
Nowadays, the border of the empire is wide open, allowing the empire’s landless peasants and wealth-hungry merchants to enter the Northland, but the sparsely populated Northland’s desire for population is endless.
This is very realistic, because no matter whether it is land development or army training, it needs a large number of people to support it, so the border of the empire often compete with each other for population, Owen’s territory hasn’t had a large number of stragglers coming in for a long time, and there are only a small number of people following the caravan, so it shows how fierce the competition for population is.
If the competition for population is fierce, then the competition for resources is tragic. The Northland has never lacked resources, especially mineral veins.
Before limited by human and material resources, these veins can only sleep in the ground, because compared to digging these mines, planting land to feed themselves is more important, because the environment of the Northland that is holding the gold brick can not buy food.
But with the influx of a large number of stragglers into the north, coupled with the formal enshrinement of the nobles of the north, these mines have a value.
The nobles are qualified and capable of digging up the veins and turning them into wealth.
The problem was that some of the territories were barren iron mines, some were good copper mines, and some were maddening gold mines, so conflicts and strife arose.
This kind of contradiction and strife is irreconcilable, you have I do not, want to do, can only be robbed, robbed unwilling, can only fight to the death, so the war appeared.
As the Northland veteran count of Ferrier and Solari, now the days are equally bad, but also faced with the emerging forces of provocation, the original Northland fur and horse monopoly began to become shaky.
These two are the two territories of the fundamental, once the problem, from the collapse is not far away, so can only fight, who touches who, fight until no one touches.
For the turmoil in the north, the empire ignored, not chaotic and how they have the opportunity to intervene, and then the empire on the fight between the nobles is not asked, unless the need to mediate, and not all nobles are qualified to let the empire mediation, at least it must also be the level of the count.
The annoyance is not only these, through the black hand intelligence network, Owen learned that Sylvia’s father, Archduke Macaron finally made a move, but because he is in the academy city in the open, and exposed the elf royal lineage, so he did not dare to come in the open, and secretly guided an undercurrent aimed at the north city.
At the same time, Sylvia also received a letter from her father, allowing her to leave behind Owen’s bloodline, simply put, it is to leave behind seeds to improve the family’s bloodline through hemming and hawing.
Archduke Macaroon is daring to think, a magical girl plus the bloodline of the elf royal family, certain aspects are afraid that it is not worse than a demigod.
If these are still just hidden dangers that have not yet broken out, then the sudden drop in temperature in the Northland this year is a prelude to a large-scale war.
Before half of the fall season, a shallow layer of white snow covered the vast majority of places in the Northland, which is not an auspicious omen of a good year of snow, but an omen that many people will die.
The further north it gets, the colder it gets, the more barren it gets, and the more scarce the food gets. If Owen hadn’t been so lucky, there wouldn’t have been so much good land in the North City.
In contrast, the barbarians in the north will rely on the sky to eat, so they must reserve enough food to eat a winter before the winter, less than one person’s share of the food, die a person, less than ten people’s share of the food, die ten people, it is so cruel.
Therefore, once faced with the problem of insufficient food, the barbarians in the north have only one way to fight for their lives, either to hunt desperately or to rob desperately.
But the large-scale cooling led to the difficulty of hunting straight up, compared to the south plunder became their only choice.
