Chapter 157 Reasons for War
Since you understand the principle of capturing a star body, the following things are simple. Richard only needs to constantly calculate a new orbit to accommodate more star bodies. Theoretically, when five star bodies appear, the magic recovery is equivalent to the existing well of stars. That is to say, the five star bodies plus the well of stars can double the magic recovery speed. According to this calculation, when Richard has eighty-one star bodies, the magic recovery speed is equivalent to the consumption of a normal great magician when casting spells. This means that if Richard fights at the normal rhythm of an ordinary great magician, the magic will be endless.
Thinking of this, Richard was suddenly excited, but then he realized that if he wanted to capture eighty-one star bodies, the difficulty of orbit calculation was probably no less than that of completely analyzing the rules of the divine nest in the Xiulan plane. If he really had that level, Richard probably had already gone deep into the legend and had to work hard according to the method of a great magician.
However, since the increase of orbits is so difficult, Richard has to carefully select the captured star bodies instead of capturing them at will, so as not to waste a precious orbit. The best choice is naturally various plane origin forces. This energy itself contains rules and is of great help to analyzing the rules. However, the plane origin power is very rare. Over the past long time, Richard has only obtained two plane origins.
In this way, the star bodies found in the rock plane are not suitable. In contrast, the energy of the Liujin Valley is more inclined to pure magic, which is more helpful to Richard. The earth elements of the rock plane have limited effects on Richard. In addition to the origin of the plane, Richard also needs pure star power, because only the star power can strengthen the bloodlines of Archmond and the Silver Moon Elf at the same time.
In the next few days, the army reorganized the rock plane continued, and then about a hundred Archmond infantry knights entered the rock plane. They served as middle-level officers of the defenders, which formed the backbone of the army. After repeated thinking, Richard left Raya as the temporary chief officer of the guard plane. After the elf poet Oral was transferred, Raya could serve as Oral's deputy. Richard spent a few days to see the surrounding environment of the base and the location of the iron concentrate vein, and then returned to Norland.
For some reason, when he returned to Ukiyo-se, Richard always felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. After interrogation, the situation in Ukiyo-sei and Ukiyo-sei was normal. No major events happened during the period when Richard left, and the same was true for the news from Nolan. If the news received by the secular and Eternal Dragon Palace was nothing big, then nothing should have happened. Richard comforted himself like this, but his heart always seemed to be covered with a shadow, and it was very uncomfortable to be gray.
When Richard was preparing griffins on the floating island, Neris got the news from somewhere and rushed over. He was wearing a gorgeous close-fitting soft armor, but wrapped in a heavy cloak. He even brought a sterling silver mask under his cap to cover people's ears. The Fourth Prince's outfit scared Richard, not understanding what new tricks this guy came up with.
"Richard, are you going to trouble the Silver Sword Family?"
Richard nodded and said, "Yes, the time is almost over. I want to join the army. This war must be won, so I have to command it myself. The Silver Sword Family itself is not worth worrying, but I am worried that the guys hiding behind the scenes may start secretly."
Neris took off his mask and showed his fairy-like face, asking, "What if the guys behind the scenes weren't drawn out by you."
"Then just clean up the silver sword and destroy Canan by the way." Richard replied,
Neris frowned and asked, "But what kind of reason are you looking for."
Richard smiled and said, "It is very clear in history. As long as you want to fight, it's enough. There is no need to have any reason. If you need it, it will be too late to find it after you fight."
Neris shrugged and said, "It's very insightful, but you have to win."
"I have brought a lot of people and prepared some good things. If I can't win, I won't have to mess up." Richard said with a smile.
Neris patted Richard on the shoulder and said, "I'll go with you too."
Richard looked at him in confusion and said, "You are so idle."
"I'm in a bad mood, so I'll learn how you command."
While speaking, Neris never put down his hand. He used to pat his shoulders very normally, but now he has become a shoulder-to-shoulder. Richard quietly patted Neris' hand off and said, "You can do whatever you want, but you can't learn the way I command in the battle. You are not worse than me in terms of military strategy."
Neris shook his head and said, "I won't say so much. Are you going to set off? Then let's go now."
Richard fixed his bag on the griffin, looked back at Niris who had only carried a small bag, and said, "You brought such a little thing."
"Well, a little clothing, everything else is yours."
For some reason, Richard always felt that this topic was a bit strange today, so he didn't say more and turned on the griffin. Fortunately, Archmond is rich now, and there are many top-quality griffins in stock, so it's not difficult to install one more Neris. After a while, six griffins took off one after another and flew towards the west.
On the way, Richard asked tentatively: "Why are you in a bad mood?"
Neris was silent and did not answer, but just flew forward.
Two days later, Richard and Neris, who had only a short rest in the middle, caught up with the troops that had set out before, fifty cavalrymen, two hundred cavalrymen, one hundred spear throwers and eight hundred cavalrymen on horseback. This is the pilot force. This pilot force marched at full speed, leaving the follow-up army far behind. The leading troops were Feise and Tiramisu, and there was also a thinker. Such equipment, even if Richard did not come, would be enough to defeat the Silver Sword Earl head-on. Now, not only Richard has come, but also brought an additional Neris. If he is not biased against Neris's appearance, the Fourth Prince is indeed a strong support.
After joining the troops, after another half a day of march, they arrived at the Count of Silver Sword. The Silver Sword family has a long history and there are many nobles in the clan. Most of the territories are on the western border. They lead each other and are scattered, forming a complete mutual assistance system. Most of the new territory of Silver Sword is expanded outside the alliance boundary. At the same time, they also illuminatedly blocked the expansion of other families in this area, and they have shown the stance to turn this boundary line into the inner boundary of the Silver Sword family.
The Yinjian family, who received the news, had already gathered 7,000 people to "welcome" Richard.
If Richard's pioneer troops had not arrived too quickly, the Yinjian family could have assembled tens of thousands of troops. The scouts would have long passed the news back to the Yinjian Leader, so when Richard's cavalry trotted all the way to the border of the Yinjian territory, they saw a neat military formation that firmly blocked the main road through the territory.
Richard glanced at the stern and majestic military formation opposite, nodded, and said, "It's pretty good."
Neris also said: "The old family that can take root in the borders is somewhat confident. How about it? Do you feel like it's hitting the iron plate?"
"Iron plate." Richard just smiled, then pointed forward and said, "I didn't see where their Knights are."
Neris sighed and said, "Who will foolishly give the precious knight to your Danfeng Knight with the precious knight."
Richard smiled and said, "This is the effect you want." After saying that, he rode his horse forward and walked alone towards the Silver Sword Family, who was waiting for battle.
Several nobles in the Silver Sword Army rode out and met Richard.
Richard glanced among the few people and asked, "Where is Fenriel, why didn't I see him?"
A middle-aged nobleman bowed slightly and said, "My father has something else to do. He is not in the territory at this moment. Now I am temporarily responsible for the territorial affairs."
"Virgin Viscount Fur, the first heir to the Silver Sword Family."
"It is also the only heir so far." Fu Nan added,
Richard nodded and said, "It seems that it is the same for you. Move your army away, they block my way."
The smile on Fu'an's face stagnated, his anger flashed, and then he returned to normal, saying, "This is the territory of the Silver Sword Family. Where my soldiers stand, it is completely our freedom."
"Then let's take a detour." Richard smiled harmlessly.
But the people of Silver Sword changed their faces, and they were passing by. The territory of Silver Sword Territory was flat. Richard's cavalry was free to go. He bypassed the avenue and bypassed the gathered troops. Then Richard could go wherever he wanted. If Richard wanted to go, Jianfeng City, the main city of Silver Sword, wouldn't he have copied their nest?
"This is the Silver Sword Territory. You can't enter, please go back." Fu Nan said word by word,
Richard suddenly stopped smiling and said, "So, Silver Sword is planning to declare war with Archmond."
Fu Nan sneered: "Declare war, we just want to defend our territory. Lord Richard, don't think that as a nobleman from the floating island, you can bully others by virtue."
"You blocked my way, just don't want me to open up my own duke. Isn't this a declaration of war or something." After saying that, Richard's smile was calm and he said, "As a nobleman from Fudao, I have never heard of any family that will not be beaten back after being slutted by someone."
Fu Nan confronted him: "Mr. Richard, I don't understand what you mean. I think you can choose another place to develop the Duke."
"Oh, isn't this the boundary of the Holy Alliance? I can't open up my territory in this direction. Why, this area has become the private land of Silver Sword." Richard asked lightly,
The Fu Nan was unmoved and said toughly: "No matter where this place is, you cannot pass through the territory of the Silver Sword."
