Chapter 93: Chapter 41: Good Things Come in Pairs, Iron Feather Archer!

Surprise!

Char knew that the chicken coop would have additional functions, but what he hadn’t expected was the appearance of castle guards after upgrading the castle to the second stage and completing the upgrade task!

This was a setting his previous game design had never included. One could only say that after integrating other worldviews, the system had undergone significant changes.

However, it was certain that this change was a good thing for him.

Soon, Char turned his attention to the Iron Armor Knights.

Although these Iron Armor Knights weren’t tall, each only about four inches high, looking more like dolls than actual fighters, they had quite decent combat abilities, reaching a challenge level of 1/4.

This was already impressive, equivalent to an adult human.

If only he had had these Iron Armor Knights when he first crossed over, would he have spent such a miserable and timid time initially?

More critically, these Iron Armor Knights were replenishable, not one-off consumables. It was as if he had suddenly gained fifty loyal guards with a replenishable challenge level of 1/4.

Aside from their small size, there were no other drawbacks.

Moreover, this was just after completing a single upgrade task. Might more guards appear after he completed more upgrade tasks?

Additionally, the system also explicitly stated that as the castle continued to upgrade, the strength of the castle guards would become stronger and stronger.

Right now, they were only at a challenge level of 1/4, but the level could very possibly reach 1, 2, and even 3, 4 in subsequent challenges. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Who knows?

“Ah! What’s this! Mr. Char, how did these guards appear? Did you do this?”

Outside, Betty also noticed the appearance of these Black-armored Guards around the carriage and exclaimed in surprise.

Meanwhile, Freyja, who was busy processing materials harvested from the Shark Lizard Beast and further dealing with its corpse, also shifted her attention.

Seeing the transformation of the carriage, she showed a clear expression of astonishment.

The existence of the Prayer Altar had already amazed her. In Freyja’s eyes, Char was now connected to the divine.

Although Char did not show any signs of sainthood and did not look like a devout follower of any deity, Freyja felt that Char might be favored by some deity—not from this plane of existence but perhaps from an otherworldly plane, like Lord of Dawn, Losanda or Forest Goddess Melikai.

Because the power of the Prayer Altar was truly incredible, besides divine beings, Freyja could not imagine any other existence possessing such capabilities.

And now, she suddenly realized not only was the Prayer Altar an artifact-like existence, but the carriage as well, and both were actually part of the same artifact!

Upon this realization, Freyja’s heart surged with emotion.

The surprises didn’t stop there.

During the night, as soon as it passed midnight, the carriage once again radiated the Prayer Light, and both sections of the carriage underwent noticeable transformations, becoming much more exquisite.

“‘Please! Make it like a home!’ Task completed!”

“Reward permanent spell—Cleaning Technique.”

“Permanent Cleaning Technique, the castle will automatically clean itself daily, looking fresh and new.”

“Reward permanent spell—Light Body Skill.”

“Permanent Light Body Skill, reducing the castle’s weight, combined with the Wind Winged Horse’s skills, allows for brief flights, overcoming more obstacles.”

“Reward Wind Winged Horse +2.”

Suddenly, the sound of horses neighing came from outside the carriage.

Char, still half-asleep in his sleep, was jolted awake by the light of the Prayer Light, and the system’s notification sounds echoed in his mind, fully waking him up.

He first checked the system and was overjoyed to see the updated messages.

Good things come in pairs; after the completion of the chicken coop during the day, the task “Please! Make it like a home!” had also been completed, making all the efforts he and Freyja had put in worthwhile.

And the rewards after completing the task made Char very happy.

The fifty wisps of Praying Power were expected, nothing surprising there.

But the remaining additional rewards were indeed a surprise.

The rewards were split into two aspects.

Firstly, he no longer had to worry about cleaning the castle or the potential stench from raising chickens, ducks, fish, and sheep in the future.

The Permanent Cleaning Technique would save him a great deal of hardship.

Secondly, the carriage had gained the capability of brief flight.

Previously, he had tried to make the Wind Winged Horse activate “Wind Wings” and “Light Wind” to see if he could make the carriage fly as well.

However, he found that “Wind Wings” and “Light Wind” could only turn the Wind Winged Horse into a temporary flying horse at best, and it was impossible to lift the carriage into the sky.

Let’s not even mention that now there were two sections of the carriage, the Wind Winged Horse couldn’t pull it even when there was only one.

The effects of “Wind Wings” and “Light Wind” were only to slightly increase the speed at which the carriage could run.

But now, the Permanent Light Body Skill and the addition of two Wind Winged Horses had made this feat possible.

Thrilled, Char immediately dressed and walked out of the bedroom toward the door, and Betty, also stirred by the commotion, flew out of the bedroom with Char.

“What’s happened, Mr. Char?”
