035. Successive breakthroughs, Hogan’s past (5)
Chapter 35
“Eighty-five thousand six hundred and thirty-one gold coins…”
When Joshua threw all the gold mines into the system mall, his wealth value reached an unprecedented 85631.
This didn’t even count the corpses of the desert sand scorpions, especially the seventh-level sand scorpion. The high-level monsters were full of treasures, and Joshua was reluctant to throw them in the store.
As for the eight sand scorpion eggs, Joshua took out two of them as quest rewards and gave them to Soros and Duanyu, and also earned a wave of pet scroll money by the way.
He is going to keep the rest to hatch, and after hatching into sand scorpions, he will continue to act as a gold converter.
With the money in hand, the first thing Joshua will do is to build Bambi City.
“Build, level 1 barracks.”
“Level 1 barracks are under construction…”
In the open space outside Bambi, the training of the city guards is in full swing.
As their training intensity increased, the space in the center of the city was obviously no longer sufficient for their training, so the training venue had long been moved outside the city.
The earth suddenly trembled slightly, and the faces of the city guards changed. Before they could react, they saw black bricks spread out under their feet, and a huge building rumbled out of the ground.
In a short period of time, the sun above has disappeared, and it was blocked by the high ceiling.
There are all kinds of brand-new training equipment, and all kinds of weapons…
The city guards were all stunned, and suddenly someone shouted: “The miracle is a miracle performed by the city lord!”
There was excitement on everyone’s faces.
Yes, such a thing can only be done by the great city lord, the noble third prince, and it is not the first time they have seen each other.
“His Royal Highness the third prince built the barracks for you, not for you to cheer in a daze…”
Hogan’s icy voice rang in everyone’s ears.
The city guards trembled and continued to train in haste.
This time, they threw away the crude training tools in their hands and rushed to pick up those more targeted and efficient training equipment, one by one with high enthusiasm.
Everyone was desperately trying to squeeze their own physical strength, and even Hogan was a little surprised.
“boom…”
Suddenly, a strange wave came out in the field.
Hogan’s eyes lit up and he rushed over quickly. A middle-aged strong man with dark skin and a strong body was looking at his hands with surprise.
“Lord Hogan, I made a breakthrough! I cultivated a grudge!”
As he said that, a white light burst out from the middle-aged strong man’s hand. It was the light of battle qi that only a middle-level knight could have.
Everyone around looked at him with admiration.
“incredible…”
Hogan sighed in a low voice.
He knew this middle-aged strong man, his name was Sean, and he was one of the third-level knights who received his attention in the first round of selection.
However, later Hogan found out that he had an old injury on his body, and even the magical healing medicine sold in the pharmacy was ineffective. It was very difficult to break through to the fourth level.
That’s the truth. After two rounds of selection training, talented level 2 knights like Archie have surpassed the latecomers and have broken through to level 4. Sean has not yet broken through.
But now, Sean, who was originally sentenced to “death penalty” by Hogan in his heart, has broken through? !
Incredible indeed.
But before Hogan recovered from his surprise, there were several cheers of surprise on the field.
“I broke through! I also broke through to level four!”
“Level 3, I seem to have broken through to a level 3 knight!”
This is just the beginning.
In just one afternoon, more than a dozen people in the city guards have completed the breakthrough and advanced to the next realm.
The rest of the people who did not make a breakthrough were also surprised to find that the training in the afternoon was nearly one-third longer than usual in terms of efficiency and persistence!
Miracles can only be explained by miracles.
When Hogan reported this to Joshua, Joshua laughed.
“The high-intensity training during this period, coupled with the 30% increase in morale of the first-level barracks, the 30% increase in training efficiency, and a small part of the psychological suggestion of witnessing the ‘miracle’ happening in front of us. It is also normal for the city guards to break through with a blowout…
However, the barracks built with these 20,000 gold coins are also worth the money. ”
Joshua looked at Hogan with satisfaction, then took out a crimson potion and handed it to him, saying, “Drink it, Hogan.”
Hogan glanced at the potion, and said after a moment of silence, “Your Highness, although this potion is miraculous, it is useless to my injury.”
Joshua had already seen that there was a dark wound on Hogan. In fact, Hogan had also taken the blood medicine sold in the pharmacy, but it had no effect.
“No, this one is different.”
Joshua looked at Hogan with a smile and encouraged, “You’ll know when you try it.”
The pharmacy only sells low-level potions, and the bottle Joshua is now taking out is a high-level healing potion just exchanged from the system store. The cost is only fifty gold coins.
Hogan took the potion suspiciously and drank it.
Soon, he felt a strange power surging in his body. Those dark wounds left behind melted like snow and disappeared. Even the strength bottleneck that had been stuck for a long time seemed to be loosened.
“This..”
Hogan’s eyes widened, looking fixedly at Joshua.
Joshua patted Hogan on the shoulder and said lightly, “I’ll help you again.”
A huge force poured into Hogan.
“boom!”
A strong silver vindictive light erupted from Hogan’s body, which flourished for a while.
Breakthrough, eighth-level knight!
“Breakthrough… I actually broke through, eighth-level knight…”
Hogan looked at his hands in disbelief, unable to contain his excitement.
Joshua had the urge to cry when he saw the taciturn and strong-armed captain of the bodyguard under his command.
Hogan is also a storyteller…
Joshua sighed inwardly.
“thump..”
Hogan suddenly half-kneeled in front of Joshua and said very solemnly, “I, Hogan Bryant, swear by the glory of a knight, that I will always follow in His Highness’s footsteps until death.”
Hogan was only under the order of Charles III to follow and protect Joshua, and the object of allegiance was actually Charles III.
Now, he’s officially offering his allegiance to Joshua.
“Bryant…”
When Joshua read the name, he suddenly said in surprise, “Bryant family, are you the genius knight of the Bryant family who competed with Harold for the command of the Bauhinia Legion? !”
Hogan smiled wryly and nodded slightly: “It’s been ten years since that incident, Your Highness…”*
