Chapter 112 Animal Evolution
"In terms of animal evolution, the first priority is the icebreaker. This giant snow beast is irreplaceable in terms of sieges and charge in wars, as well as daily cargo transportation and farming."

Rhodes looked at the Ice Vein Fruit in his hand.

After experiencing the unstoppable power of the Icebreaker Beast in breaking through the enemy's formation on the battlefield, his attention to this kind of magical beast was infinitely increased.

If the icebreaker beast is covered with heavy armor and three or four longbow knights stand on it.

The number does not need to be large, a dozen or so icebreaker beasts will be enough to form a team.

After launching the charge, it is enough to break up any infantry formation head-on!

Rhodes hurried to the cowshed on the top of the mountain and carefully observed the black yaks living there one by one.

After careful selection, he found a total of five strong black yaks that were on the verge of evolution.

Take special care of them.

The Ice Vein Fruit was then mixed into an evolution potion and fed to one of them for experimental observation.

He was not disappointed. After consuming five ice vein fruits in succession, the black yak successfully began to evolve.

It has a voracious appetite and consumes sixty pounds of roughage made from high-quality barley stalks every day to provide itself with the nutritional needs for its evolution.

"According to this progress, it is estimated that the entire process of a powerful black yak evolving into an icebreaker beast will take two months and require the consumption of twenty ice vein fruits."

Rhodes observed its evolution and recorded the summary.

After confirming that there was no problem, he quickly fed the other four black yaks and allowed them to start evolving as well.

He now has a total of three hundred and sixty Ice Vein Fruits in his hand.

The winter wolf test experiment consumed six pieces, and the evolution of five icebreaker beasts is expected to consume one hundred pieces.

There are 254 pieces left, which Rhodes intends to use to train snow horses.

According to his tests, it takes six ice vein fruits and one month to evolve a strong mane horse into a snow horse.

The remaining fruits are enough to train forty snow horses, and ten can be left for emergencies.

After a month, the army will have enough knights and snow horses.

Rhodes thought that by then, the extraordinary army he had been looking forward to for a long time - the Snowfield Cavalry - would be officially formed.

With these forty snowfield cavalrymen, coordinated with hundreds of ordinary cavalrymen, the strength of the First Guard Battalion will achieve a qualitative leap.

At that time, he would truly possess the military strength to dominate the Hanshui River Basin.

Become the leader of this area, pioneer the knights and nobles of the duchy, and be more confident in facing the upcoming unrest in the north.

"There is another problem that needs to be solved first. Preparing potions has wasted too much of my time."

Rhodes was listing the development plans on his to-do list when he suddenly stopped writing and frowned.

Attention should also be paid to the selection of personnel for the army's extraordinary arms, the planning and construction of the magic pool, and the plain arable land in the Hanshui Valley.

There are too many things that need to be handled by him personally.

But whether it was high-grade black wolfberry or ice vein fruit, it would take him a lot of time to prepare them into potions, which was both time-consuming and energy-consuming.

As for not mixing the potion and just consuming it directly?

It’s not impossible, that’s what advanced lavender does.

Rhodes asked Lunsa and the medical soldiers formed by the girl to crush and prepare the disinfectant themselves.

But without his magic power to harmonize, the result is that the medicine is difficult to be absorbed by the human body and half of it is wasted!
The entire White Frost Cult was buried in the soil, and only such a small amount of fruit was harvested. Rhodes could not accept that the results were only cut in half.

He needed help to mix the potion for him.

Humans can't do that. Rhodes shook his head helplessly.

His strength was too low to express the meditation method in his mind, and he could not train other wizards.

If you don't become a wizard, you won't be able to control magic accurately.

Only after ordinary humans step into the second level and use their blood incarnation to gather magic power can they exert extraordinary power.

Rhodes could only target the monsters around him.

Hoping to find an animal that can inherit his magical harmonizing abilities.

"My spirituality for promotion to a first-level intermediate wizard has been completely stabilized, and there is one more spot for the spiritual contract." Rhodes felt the condition of his soul. As he continued to meditate in the Star Spirit Heaven, his soul became stronger.

In addition to the Mist Raven, you can choose another animal to make a spiritual contract with.

It would be best if the animal was small enough.

Because unlike a pasture contract, a spiritual contract would place a huge burden on his soul.

The body and the soul are closely related. He has currently contracted a total of 120 birds, such as the Mist Raven, and it is not too much of a burden.

But if it were ice-breaking beasts, less than ten of them would probably be enough to make him dizzy and spiritually overloaded.

"Preparing potions requires flexible forelimbs. Monkey? There don't seem to be native monkeys in the North."

Rhodes scratched his head. At least there were none in Hanshui County and Hanshui Valley where he was.

It is said that there is a hot spring area on the other side of the Agate River, where snow monkeys may live.

But it cannot be bought in Broken Dragon Fortress or nearby caravans.

Now we have commissioned mercenaries to capture it, and it will take at least two or three months to bring it back.

Just as Rhodes was in distress, he heard a familiar howling sound in his ears.

White Bread pushed open the door of his room and squeezed in lively.

"Have you found a suitable target?" Rhodes looked at it in surprise.

He did tell White Bread and Sabretooth about the relevant requirements through the ranch contract and asked them to keep an eye on it for him.

But the main expectation is still on the saber-toothed tiger.

The saber-toothed tiger strolls around the snowfield all day long, and will take a bite of anything that moves, so it can be said to be very knowledgeable.

But Rhodes didn't expect that the first one to come back to report was this greedy dog ​​who lay at home and slept all day.

Feeling Rhodes' distrust, White Bread rolled his eyes.

It quickly lay on its side on the ground, wagging its tail to signal its younger brothers behind it to come over and work.

In Rod's dazed eyes, he saw five rabbits following behind White Bread.

It is the size of two fists, with pure white fur. It is a snow rabbit unique to the North.

Five snow rabbits, with human-like expressions of grievance on their faces, came behind the white bread.

A magical thing happened. They actually straightened their upper bodies and stretched out their two front legs to beat White Bread's backs.

In contrast to their round bodies, the snow hares have two pairs of strong long legs when they stand up.

Their limbs are longer than their bodies, but are usually hidden under their bodies.

Now he is giving the wolf a back massage expertly.

"Is this how you deal with snow rabbits? Awesome." Rhodes watched the scene speechlessly.

White Bread was enjoying the service of these snow rabbits, and it was obviously not the first time.

Two months ago, Rhodes received news from Pingdingshan that a large group of snow rabbits had sneaked into the granary to steal food.

He was not in Pingdingshan at the time, so he asked Baimianbao to handle it.

After receiving a reply that the problem has been solved, I will no longer pay attention to it.

Now it seemed that the way white bread was handled was very different from what he had imagined.

"Tsk, Master Bai, it seems you are the real lord here."

When I think about how busy I have been recently and compare it with this one, jealousy makes me feel completely unrecognizable.

Rhodes couldn't bear it anymore, so he stepped forward, grabbed the white bread by the scruff of its neck, and threw it out.

I was so busy all day that I had no time to rest, but this greedy dog ​​was lying at home.

Not only was there someone who fed him attentively, but he even had a group of little brothers come to give him leg and back massages, and now they were showing off in front of him!

This person's life was much more comfortable than his, and the lord said he could not accept it.
