Chapter 585 Fire
Roland was inspecting the magic flying ship at this time.
The group of handymen and magic apprentices who were responsible for piloting and maintaining the group of flying ships followed behind Roland in trepidation.
Andonara, holding Roland’s arm, pointed quite happily at the slanting hole that ran through the entire flying ship. “I wanted to shoot this thing down, but after I hurled the spear, only a hole came out… I thought I could make it explode.”
“The next time you throw a spear at a large object or building, flatten the tip a bit and make a cross-shaped groove in it to increase the speed of the spear’s rotation when thrown; it will drastically increase the laceration ability and the damage to large objects will skyrocket.”
Andonara’s eyes lit up. “Roland you know so much.”
“It’s just common sense.” Roland waved his hand. “Why don’t I help you study the combat system of Great Swordsmen and Heroes later.”
Andonara nodded her head repeatedly, feeling quite happy.
Generally, although Warriors were aware that spellcasters discriminated against them, if it came to combat ability, they would say: Spellcasters know nothing about frontal combat. They only know how to cast spells at a distance. They have no courage and don’t know what power is.
This was a kind of affirmation and reassurance for their profession.
Subconsciously, they assumed that others didn’t know what they were good at to ensure their authority in this area.
But Andonara was different.
She knew Roland was very knowledgeable, though he didn’t have much common sense about this world because he wasn’t from this plane.
But that scholarly temperament, and that scholarly way of thinking only, she could still see.
After all, there were many scholars raised in the royal court, and she had come into contact with them enough to know some of the behaviors of such people.
Roland, for his part, was more scholarly than all the scholars she had come in contact with.
And almost all of his time was spent studying magic and reading books about this world.
Now, he was coming to know more and more about this world.
Even many of the royal court scholars, in terms of common knowledge, were no match for him anymore.
What made Andonara fall head over heels was the speed of Roland’s progress in magic. Since she became a Legendary Great Swordsman, she looked at everyone as though they were beneath her. It wasn’t that she was conceited, it was just the way it was.
Aside from the two divine angels who had descended, or the World Tree, there wasn’t anyone in the world who could pose much of a threat to her.
If she had to find someone who would scare her, it would be Roland.
As a clingy woman, she had already identified with him.
Another reason was that she had seen Roland’s frightening rate of progress.
At the time she became a Legend, she thought he was so weak.
But now he was able to give her the impression of a strong man.
At this rate, she thought Roland would surely be able to catch up with her in less than five years.
And Roland’s ability to grow so fast couldn’t be separated from his scholarliness.
Researching, thinking, researching again, thinking again, doing experiments repeatedly, searching for the truth of magic…
Many people had a substantial impression that seriousness and hard work were just nouns; they had no actual impression.
But as his partner, Andonara was well aware of how hard Roland was working.
This wasn’t surprising since the Golden Sons didn’t need to sleep and rest. But he had almost no interest in parties and socializing.
Time was devoted almost entirely to studying magic and learning.
Because she was too worried about Roland’s physical and mental health, Andonara, who had always been shy, became bold and actively sought out opportunities to get intimate with him from time to time; she had truly worried about this.
So in Andonara’s eyes, her man was smart and knowledgeable, and he could do things that no one else could imagine if he wanted to.
She was the best witness to this.
She witnessed a weak Golden Son become strong with shocking speed.
She witnessed his rise from obscurity to fame among the noble class of Hollevin.
All of this made her think that there was nothing her man could not do.
Helping her to improve her combat skills didn’t even need to be mentioned.
After Roland inspected the whole flying ship, he was somewhat excited
It was something he had been on a few times before. It was essentially an airborne luxury yacht.
Men all wanted to have some luxury cars and yachts and other things of the sort, and Roland was no exception.
Besides, this flying ship contained very advanced magical concepts, and if Roland could absorb them, he was certain that his level of magic knowledge would advance further, and perhaps some of these techniques could even be used in the construction of his floating city.
en
He then gathered the ship’s handymen and magic apprentices.
“You are all captives now, and I have the right to dispose of you, both according to the rules of the Fareins and the rules of Hollevin.”
Hearing these words, the near-hundred people in front of him all looked confused and scared.
They were just ordinary people, and those magic apprentices were also commoners.
If they were magic apprentices of noble origin, they wouldn’t be put on this flying ship for hard labor.
“Now you are given two choices. You can remain on duty on this ship and I will send you home on the flying ship once you have worked for a year, or, of course, you can stay and continue working.”
This group of people spoke in a flurry, like the scenes at a food market.
