In just three days, Sparrow returned with two carriages.
One of the carriages was filled with wooden longbows, while the other was filled with arrows.
Sparrow was naturally curious as to why Alan wanted to buy a bow and arrow.
After all, in his opinion, there was no place to use these things in Rose Town. It was a complete waste of gold coins.
However, he, as a finance officer, could not change the lord's decision.
"My lord! I'm back!"
The middle-aged finance officer with a small mustache and a shrewd face seemed a little excited.
Oh, Sparrow, you're back much faster than before.”
Alan smiled.
" Haha, that's because Viscount Elrond has already fulfilled his promise and started to open up the trade route. In two weeks at most, it will reach beyond the mountains.”
Sparrow chuckled. Opening up a business path was the most important thing for a finance officer.
"Oh? He didn't expect Elrond to move so quickly. Go to town and select some people later. We'll also take action here and open up the business road as soon as possible!”
Alan said with a smile.
"Alright, sir, leave it to me!”
Sparrow chuckled. At the mention of the business path, he naturally thought of Gold Coin. Anything related to Gold Coin was something that Sparrow loved the most.
"Sir, there's one more thing. I've sold all the animal skins that you asked me to sell. In addition, I've also bought some of the ancient magic collections that you like.”
With that said, a servant behind Sparrow walked up with a small box.
"Look, these are some of my collections. They seem to have been around for some years. I wonder if Milord needs them.”
Sparrow was a very smart person. He was smarter than everyone else. Others only respected or even worshipped Alan.
Instead, Sparrow attempted to observe Alan's preferences and take the initiative to curry favor with him.
Alan was very satisfied with this.
" Very good, Sparrow. You're a smart person. Your intelligence will fill your future with glory.”
Alan smiled slightly, and a trace of satisfaction appeared on his slightly tender face.
Sparrow immediately lowered his head and said," Following you, I will be glorious for life.”
With that, he tactfully left.
Only then did Alan place his gaze on the small box Sparrow had given him.
"Let me see what's inside.”
Alan opened the box. It was filled with all kinds of fur or bones.
It should be something from a wild beast or a magical beast.
However, after touching a few things in a row, the system did not react to any of them.
This meant that these were not the fur or bones of some ancient magical creature.
" As expected, those ancient magic seeds are not so easy to obtain even if they are just a scratch…"
Alan chuckled and said indifferently.
His fingers slid slightly and he was about to close the box.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for unlocking the ancient magic species, Sea Lion! Reward: Creature Card Sea Lion x20!”
The sudden notification made Alan stunned for a moment before his expression turned wild with joy.
Was there really an Ancient Magic Seed?
He took out the Sea Lion's Creature Card. This deep blue Creature Card was darker than the Magic Creature Cards that he had unlocked before.
"Sea Lion! Ancient magic species, sea magic creatures, adult sea lions can reach six meters long and four meters tall!”
"Sea lions are proficient in water element magic and are one of the most powerful species in the ocean!”
Seeing the introduction of the Sea Lion, the smile on Alan's face became more and more obvious.
Sparrow really did a great job. He unlocked my navy in advance!”
Alan was in a good mood.”
Previously, he was still thinking about passive defense. After all, the current strength of Rose Town was not enough for him to have naval forces.
They could only wait for the pirates to approach and defend.
Now, defense? If he could take the initiative to attack, why would he defend?
Twenty sea lions were probably enough to make those pirates doubt their lives.
Alan put away the Sea Lion Creature Card, then continued to stare at the fur and bones in the small box with burning eyes, touching them one by one with his hands.
However, other than the Sea Lions, there was no other ancient magic species.
Alan was not too disappointed. After all, ancient magic seeds were a power that could only be encountered by chance.
Those powerful species that had completely retreated from the continent and only left traces of glory in the historical records were almost invisible in this era.
They were far more powerful than the current magic species. He was already extremely happy to be able to unlock a type of sea lion.
In the next two weeks, Alan completely kept a low profile. At the same time, he took time to secretly release the sea lions in the water.
However, he had already taken care of them. He told them not to hurt the townspeople of Rose Town and not to show their faces. They had to live and hunt in the sea that was slightly further away.
When Alan needed them, he would naturally call them.
As Alan's appendages, they had a subtle connection with Alan. He felt that he could call them in his heart.
Of course, the premise was that the distance could not be too far.
Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, when the night was dark, Alan suddenly received a reminder from the Sea Lion.
An unknown ship was slowly approaching Rose Town.
