Magic Industrial Age
#17 - 17: Count Raymond (Seeking follow-up reading)
Undoubtedly, the arrival of Count Raymond disturbed Loy's peace of mind.
So much so that he couldn't enter a meditative state during today's practice; his mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts and distractions.
Fortunately, he only stopped for half an hour, sitting there, squinting and thinking carefully.
Whether Loy admitted it or not, this Count Raymond was his greatest reliance at the moment.
Although he hadn't been given a clear status, and being a bastard son couldn't be brought to the table, he truly hadn't been mistreated in other aspects.
However, in the memories of Loy's original body, there was mostly fear of this man; he had hardly spoken to him, let alone understood him.
Naturally, he couldn't provide Loy with useful information, only that untouchable majesty, which even affected him now.
However, Loy was not the Loy he used to be. After half an hour of meditation and hard thinking, he had anticipated many situations and gradually calmed down.
Practicing again, he was more focused and more serious.
He didn't like this feeling of being involuntary and uneasy at all; he needed the power to control his own destiny.
Perhaps it was because his belief was firm, his practice this morning became increasingly gratifying.
He even faintly felt the pulsation of the life seed within his heart.
It seemed to be in sync with the frequency of the heartbeat, so that with each beat, an endless stream of power reached his limbs.
As for the manifestation on the attribute panel, the cultivation progress increased by a full fifteen points.
[Panther Breathing Method LV2 (35/100)]
This rate of progress, even in the novels of this world, few authors would dare to write like this.
In comparison, Loy had spent a lot of time and energy on basic meditation, but the effect couldn't be said to be almost non-existent, it was simply no progress at all.
He also tried to understand the content himself, find suitable logic, and then use the 'Auxiliary Learning Module'.
Unfortunately, what you think is just what you think. If it doesn't conform to logical rules, it can't be constructed.
In the afternoon, Loy went to the library again. This time, he specifically looked for books on noble genealogy and noble development history to scan.
The original body had some research on heraldry, and understood how chaotic the noble genealogy could be, and it was not easy to sort it out.
This time, Loy mainly looked at the noble history of the Duchy of Norman, and the noble circles of Auckland City, thinking about the relationships between them.
Although books are sometimes outdated and do not represent the current situation, he at least needs to know who they are and where they come from.
Loy would never believe that Count Raymond came because of him. It was hard to say whether the letter he sent had reached the other party's hands.
Therefore, this Earl must have some reason to run to other countries!
After flipping through several books, and choosing a place to activate the 'Auxiliary Learning Module' to digest it, Loy had a relatively complete outline in his mind, and also had some guesses.
——
The autumn sun is setting in the west, and the sunlight is dimming.
When the school bell rang again, Loy stepped out of the Magic Academy with a brisk pace.
At a glance, he saw Count Raymond's luxurious carriage parked on the side of the road. People came and went around, and many people cast their eyes here, some curious, some eager.
If Loy had to say, carriages are also divided into grades, just like cars in the previous life. Those worth ten to twenty thousand are just for transportation, those worth millions can show their status, and those worth tens of millions can blow up the street when driven out.
The luxury carriages of the great nobles are almost all unique custom models, and traveling outside represents the nobles themselves.
Loy himself can't be considered low-key. After all, his maverick style has also made him somewhat famous.
But all of this is not as sensational as him boarding this carriage.
Inside the carriage, Oliveira sat quietly.
His thin body was straight, and a long sword lay across his knees. It seemed that a vast force was surging in his body, so that when Loy entered the carriage, he even felt a sense of suffocation.
As a third-order Gale Swordsman, he could already release his fighting spirit, and his lethality could not be described as considerable, but a new height of human combat power.
If he were to attack without any scruples, even if there were hundreds more like Loy, it would only take him some time and fighting spirit.
As for Hoover, the butler, he seemed to have other things to do and was not on the carriage.
Seeing Loy coming up, Oliveira slowly opened his eyes and nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting.
Don't think he's aloof, he only nodded because Loy was familiar with him, otherwise, he wouldn't pay attention to him.
The carriage started, and the coachman was also skilled. He casually flicked the whip, and ran at a steady and swift speed.
Loy hesitated slightly, and still opened his mouth: "Teacher Oliveira, can I ask, what is the purpose of the Earl's visit?"
Oliveira's cold face frowned slightly, and he spat out a few words: "You shouldn't ask, I can't say."
Loy opened his mouth: "I know, I know, but the Earl's visit this time is sudden, and I have no idea.
Of course, you don't need to say the specific thing, I just make a guess, just nod if it is right."
Oliveira frowned even more, but before Loy could make any expression, he immediately said: "Did the Earl come here in response to the invitation of the Habsburg Empire?"
At this moment, he saw the surprise on Oliveira's face, and his pupils dilated slightly.
Although with Oliveira's dead face, this expression was very slight, it still couldn't escape the scan of 'Deep Blue'.
"Okay, okay, I probably have a clue in my mind."
"Little Loy, I almost don't recognize you after not seeing you for a few months." Oliveira rarely spoke and said a series of words:
Loy also knew that his performance was too much, and smiled shyly, and said: "Leaving Felo Town, making a living on my own, and encountering more people and things, there will always be some growth."
After a slight pause, he added: "After all, the people outside are not as kind as the residents of Felo Town!"
The latest novel is first published on the Sixth 9 Books Bar!
Oliveira was silent, and didn't know what he thought of, and actually agreed.
Out of the city, the speed of the carriage became faster and faster, and before the autumn sun set, it finally arrived at the Provence Manor.
Loy is very familiar with this place, after all, he lived there for more than two months.
But the current Provence Manor, in addition to those familiar to him, has many more people.
The elite guards of the Raymond family are all powerful elite swordsmen and knights, as well as maids, cooks, male servants, coachmen, etc. who travel together...
Loy knew at a glance that it was at least a team of hundreds of people, and the second floor of the manor rarely lit up with bright lights.
From time to time, knights walked out of the room, mounted their horses, and disappeared into the evening sunset.
These were obviously messengers, and one after another, in a very short time, he saw three figures leaving.
Loy got out of the carriage and was led upstairs by Hoover, the butler, and entered the Earl's study.
The overall presentation of Provence Manor is a minimalist style, and it seems that they are all very simple, only this Earl's exclusive room is the most luxurious.
Large to various furniture, small to lamps and decorations, one is more exquisite than the other, the ground is also covered with carpets, and various processed animal heads are hung on the surrounding walls.
Although Loy can't appreciate this aesthetic, one and a half animal heads are hung there, and he has to be scared to death when he gets up at night.
But for the nobles of the Old Continent, this is the symbol of martial courage, and Provence Manor is ordinary, and what is hung is deer heads, horse heads, and the like.
The real noble castles like the most are magical beast specimens.
Loy stood aside, slightly raised his eyes, and saw a man with gray hair, a strong physique, and like a lion busy behind the desk.
His thick fingers held a feather pen that looked slender, dipped it in ink, and wrote beautiful cursive letters.
After writing, he baked the ink dry, folded it and put it in an envelope.
Then, he took the melted gold paint from a small stove next to him, dripped it on the surface of the envelope, and took off his ring and pressed it on it.
When the ring was taken off, a lion's head logo appeared on the gold paint, which was the family crest of the Raymond family.
The messenger next to him stepped forward, took the letter, retreated to the door, turned around and left.
After a while, Loy heard the sound of going downstairs, the neighing of horses, and the sound of horseshoes going away.
Earl Raymond seemed a little tired, rubbed his eyebrows, then looked up and looked at Loy and said: "How is it at Philant Magic Academy during this time?"
Loy told the truth: "Very good, and very fulfilling!"
"I would like to hear your evaluation of magic mechanical?"
PS: The new book is starting, the most important thing is to follow the reading, all kinds of begging!
Anyway, this one is the biggest backstage of the protagonist in the early stage...
