"You're talking about Flemann Edric, of course I know" Mikhail is a perennial profiteer in the North Gulf trade circles and is familiar with local celebrities.
"Mr.
Edric is the modern-day lord of Eagle Island, known as "Lord Eagle", and their family has lived on the island where the eagle is entrenched for generations, domesticating the eagle for a living and making a fortune, but it is really unexpected, it is no wonder that their family has always been low-key and simple, and has little contact with the nouveau riche of the North Bay. ” "Do the locals use eagles to hunt and fish," Bloom interjected curiously, sitting across from the table.
Haha, you're talking about falcons, it's pelicans, giant eagles are not the kind of ordinary birds, they are a kind of magical beasts unique to the North Bay, very large, and very intelligent, able to use language proficiently to communicate with humans, some old giant eagles are also very knowledgeable, so the place to domesticate giant eagles is similar to kindergarten, but the young eagles are far more naughty and stubborn than children, not to mention domestication, just try to get close to them will be violently attacked, So far, only the Adric family has mastered the knack of taming the eagle obediently, and it is said that the reason for this is that their family has a special transcendent professional inheritance, called the Lord of the Giant Eagle. ” Roland listened attentively to Mikhail's narration while searching his mind for memories of the "Giant Eagle" and the "Lord of the Giant Eagle".
Indeed, as Mikhail said, the giant eagle is closer to magical beasts such as griffons and vultures than ordinary falcons.
Although this creature is a ten-fold magnified falcon in appearance, and does not possess any spells or supernatural abilities, it has the strength of a horse and an intelligence comparable to that of a human, and is accustomed to living in groups on desolate islands, hunting large fish for food, and has a rebellious temper and strong aggression, not to mention ordinary people, even druids can hardly domesticate it as animal companions.
Roland was not impressed by the name "Lord of the Giant Eagle", but according to Mikhail's description, and considering that the Adric family was able to domesticate the Giant Eagle, it was thought that this was a branch of the Ranger and Druid's advanced class "Lord of the Animals".
For the "lords of animals", the appearance of humanoids is merely an accident at birth, and in the depths of their souls, they belong to wolves in the wilderness, galloping horses, soaring eagles, or schools of fish cruising in the deep sea.
Each "animal master" can form a spiritual contract with a specific class of animals: the animal who enters into the contract regards the animal owner as his own relative and chief, and obeys his leadership, while the "animal master" devotes his life to the cause of protecting such animals, in return for the love and loyalty of the other party.
There are countless types of animals in the world, including magical beasts, and most of them can establish a spiritual contract with the lord of animals, and the lord of animals is therefore divided into countless branches: those who establish a spiritual contract with the monkey group are called the "lord of apes", those who establish a spiritual contract with wild horses are called "the lord of horses", those who establish a spiritual contract with pandas are the "lord of rolling", and those who establish a spiritual contract with huskies are the "lords of Erha".
"I said Mikhail, you are talking a lot, not getting to the point at all, I asked what is the use of the giant eagle, it is not used for fishing, can it still carry people" The dwarf angrily pulled back the topic of deviation.
Mikhail shrugged: "You're right, the giant eagle is indeed used to carry people, of course, ordinary people don't dare to ride the giant eagle to hover at a height of thousands of feet, if you don't fall to death, you have to be scared to death, most of the giant eagles domesticated by Sir Adric are sold to the military organizations of the city-states of the Bend Alliance, as the mounts of patrols and reconnaissance teams, the coast guard of White Gull Harbor has set up a special Eagle Knights, and selects elite knights to drive the giant eagle to fight in the air, I tell you, it is really a life-saving business, and the slightest mistake will be broken to pieces" Mikhail emphasized the risks of harnessing the eagle, but Roland listened with a heartbeat.
How important the Air Force is as a traverser, the topic speaks for itself.
In the recent turmoil in Kitland, the most formidable of Grande's war-scourge mob were flying monsters such as bipedal wyverns and gargoyles, while Beowulf and Natasha were once in a desperate situation due to their lack of air power to compete with them.
Although the conflict ended in victory for the defenders, it was a wake-up call for Roland, who had experienced the battle: the Kolas Legion also lacked a formed air force, and if this shortcoming was not filled as soon as possible, the plight of the Kitlanders would also play out above the Kolath Legion.
Valentina pointed him out to Sir Edric, which gave him a good opportunity to make up for the shortcomings of the class, perhaps this was the meaning of the Great Druid.
"Uncle, you just mentioned the Coast Guard of Baigull Harbor, I have heard Victoria talk about this armed force to defend Baiou Harbor, and the Pearl Knight himself is the commander of the Coast Guard, but she is a person, you know, and occasionally likes to boast, I have to wonder if the Coast Guard is really as strong as she claims, enough to assume the responsibility of defending Baigull Harbor and even the entire Bender League."
Roland brings up another topic that concerns him.
This topic is a little sensitive, Mikhail restrained his smile, looked around vigilantly, and confirmed that there were no suspicious characters in the country tavern who paid attention to his conversation with Roland, and then lowered his voice and replied cautiously: "By the standards of a city-state, the strength of the Baigull Harbor Coast Guard is indeed very strong, with five thousand elite troops plus ten new steam-powered frigates equipped with magic crystal naval guns, which is the strong backing of Baigull Harbor's dominance in the Bend League, but it is not strong enough compared to their enemies. ” "Who is the enemy of Hakumome Port?"
"Baiou Port is like a huge pool, over the years it has continuously absorbed the wealth, talent and resources of the North Bay region to develop and grow into today's super city-state, but the prosperity of any city has to pay a corresponding price, and this price often needs to be borne by the underdeveloped areas around the city, the Baiou Port authorities have never treated the countryside under its rule badly, and have to allocate funds every year to subsidize the surrounding grain farms and grape and olive plantations, so where is the cost of wealth accumulation?"
Mikhail smiled, and his drunken face revealed a hint of cunning peculiar to a merchant
