The Mysterious World Under Steampunk
Chapter 739: Clearance
"Carrige of Mushan, you are still as dominant as ever!" After Oga left, Sylvia said to the old man as if he had seen an old acquaintance.
"I can be praised by Lord Earl, I am extremely honored." The old man smiled, saluted at Sylvia, then turned his head to look at Leo, said: "Your Excellency is Mr. Leo Dodd? I have heard of your reputation a long time ago, and I always wanted to meet you. I didn’t expect to wait so long to see you."
"Hello." Leo responded very concisely.
At this time, Sylvia took the initiative to introduce beside him: "This is Mr. Carrige, the head steward of the Kevin family."
"A human being has become the big housekeeper of the blood race?" Leo was stunned, and couldn't help but be curious and asked.
Perhaps it was because many people had asked similar words before, so the old man Carrie gave an answer quickly, saying: "I was in the Kui Fan Family when I was very young, and the Kui Fan Family regarded me as My family, when I grew up, I gave up the opportunity to get the surname of Kui Fan, and the Kui Fan family did not want me to suffer outside, so I was arranged to be the steward of the family and continue to work until today."
Although the old man's tone is very plain and the content described is very simple, Leo does not really treat the old man that simple. The old man can form an absolute suppression of the Oga Quinn and rely on more than his Identity, not to mention, the energy fluctuation of the opponent's body that is very close to the fifth-level psionicist is enough to show that the opponent's true strength is never as simple as it seems.
"It must be clear that the purpose of the old man coming here this time is two!" Carrige did not show a public official style, but lowered his posture and said to Leo and Sylvia: "I hope the two You can tell me what happened there without any additions or deletions."
Sylvia took the initiative to take over the negotiation with the other party and said, "Of course I can tell you, but just telling you this way, it is too cheap for you. You have to know that the secret in this matter is very valuable!"
Carrige smiled and said: "Of course, as long as the information is true, our Kui Fan family will never be stingy enough to pay enough."
Sylvia emphasized again: "Can you be the master? Know that the reward we want is not money."
Karije responded with absolute certainty: "This is not a problem, I can take the majority of the items in the Kevin's collection."
Seeing this, Sylvia said nothing more and turned to nod at Leo.
Although he did not specifically talk about what kind of remuneration will be received, Leo felt that the Kevin family should not be stingy with this remuneration, so he did not add anything, and carefully described what happened before, even He told Yilan to leave.
During the narrative, the manager of Carrige interrupted Leo from time to time, inserting some questions, such as the shape of the monster, the shape of the fissure, the concentration of the dense fog, etc., trying to achieve nothing.
Leo also did not show an impatient attitude. He not only answered the other party's inquiries seriously, but also added some of his own guesses. Later, he even gave the energy block to Carrige.
This move caused Sylvia to complain afterwards, because in her opinion, it was enough to tell Carrige the true course of the incident and the hidden secret in the ruins, and the energy block did not need to be taken out at all. .
It's just that Leo doesn't think so. He always feels that there is a problem with that energy block, but he doesn't know where the problem is. Now it's just to get rid of this trouble.
Before Carrige left, he asked Sylvia and Leo to stay in Moonlight City for two days, waiting for him to confirm everything, and then give them the remuneration.
Leo and Sylvia did not object to this. They also stayed in the hotel for the past two days, did not go out, and tried to avoid causing trouble.
Although Moonlight City appears calm on the market during the day, at night you can feel an undercurrent looming over Moonlight City.
A curfew that has never been seen in Moonlight City is a harbinger of this undercurrent, and two consecutive days of house collapses can be said to be a follow-up. As for the most striking, it is in Moonlight City, the only one in Asha County The Church of the King of the Hill is closed, which is definitely a big event for the slums of Moonlight City.
For ordinary people, these three things are nothing more than independent, but for Leo and Sylvia, these three things are actually one thing.
The curfew of Moonlight City is actually to make room for the fighting at night. The collapse of the house is a side effect of the battle between the cult leader and the hill king St. Forsyth, and the cult leader is missing. Moonlight City, without violating the agreement of the year, put The Hill King Church completely drove out of Moonlight City and drove out of Asha County as a result of this little turmoil.
However, Leo and Sylvia both believe that the departure of the Hill Kings Church is not the end of this dark tide turmoil. They both feel that this should only be the beginning.
On the third day, Carrige, the head steward of the Kevin family, came to the hotel with a reward and gave the things to Leo and Sylvia.
There is no doubt that Carige has been careful about the payment. For example, the item he gave to Sylvia is a set of beautiful jewelry. If it is only jewelry, this thing is obviously limited in price, but this set of jewelry is still A set of singular objects created by the wizard for the witch, her role is to assist the witch to control the power in the body.
This set of jewelry is also very famous in the witch group. There are three similar sets of jewelry, all of which are controlled by other witch. This set of witch jewelry may be the only one that is outside.
After Sylvia got the jewelry, she could not wait to try the effect. The result was naturally very satisfying, and she became much more powerful in her own body strength. After using the ability, the wasted power was also A lot less. She could only use the same ability three times before, but now she can use it five times. The improvement is remarkable.
On the other side, Carrige’s remuneration for Leo was not bad. He gave a wizard note. This note was not from the tower wizard, but a note written by a very special wizard. This wizard is called Barton, also known as the battle wizard.
In the wizarding tower in Death Valley, Leo saw a book that recorded the deeds of well-known wizards. Among them, he mentioned Barton the wizard, because there were other more important books to read at that time, so Leo did not pay attention to this. This book is carefully read, but I just read it casually, and about the wizard of Barton, he only remembers two points. One point is that the wizard Barton is a wandering wizard, and the second is that the wizard Barton has a very strong combat ability.
When Carrie took out this note, Leo had discovered that this note was not just a book that recorded Barton's witchcraft, but also a wizard's wonder because it brought Leo's feelings and The crystalline magic book in the storage space is somewhat similar, and the complicated Turing roots on the cover of the note fully demonstrate its practicality.
It's a pity that this note is damaged. There is a split in the note. Go straight through the note. From the details of the shape and size of the split, it should be a knight sword of the church. There are still some blood stains that have dried up. It seems that the wizard Barton should have been injured in the battle with the church. As for whether it is dead, it is unknown.
Although the notes are somewhat damaged, the pages inside are made of very special animal skin paper, which has great toughness. Even if it is crossed by the sword, it does not cause much damage to it. The location where the sword passes through is pieced together, and the writing is still clearly visible. .
The content recorded in this note does not involve any powerful witchcraft, of which only four complete witchcraft are recorded, which are the most basic witchcraft, even those wizards in the wizarding hall should also master These kinds of basic witchcraft.
The most content in this note is some techniques used by wizard Barton to use witchcraft. These skills are similar to psionic skills in Leo’s view, but some of the ideas are also similar to Leo’s own use of psionic or other witchcraft. The idea is the same, so this book is far more valuable to him than a sorcery book of a towering wizard.
Another point is even more important, that is, this book is a wizard's wonder that he can interpret. From this book, he can find out the mystery of making a wizard's wonder, so as to make his own witchcraft book.
"We are very satisfied with these two payments." Sylvia said to Carrige after seeing Leo nodding.
"I am very happy to be able to satisfy the two." Carrige responded with a smile, and then his expression became serious again. "In addition, I hope that the two can leave Moonlight City today, within five days. Leaving Asha County."
"Old Carriage, are you giving orders to me on behalf of the Queven family?" Sylvia said coldly, watching Carriage.
"No, it's not an order, it's just a good reminder." Carrige responded blandly, before turning to Sylvia to ask, he turned and left the room.
After Carrige left, Sylvia turned to look at Leo and asked, "It seems that the Kevin family is clearing."
Leo also nodded in agreement with Sylvia’s inference, and asked in doubt: “What on earth does the Kevin family want to do? Is it just to prepare for the settlement of the blood race? Why should they hold the auction again? , And come up with so many precious things?"
"What if the auction is bait?" Sylvia said one possibility.
"If it's bait, who is it going to lead?" Leo asked back.
Both of them fell into contemplation, because if calculated according to this guess, it seems that many of them agree with this condition, including Leo himself.
"Don't think about it, we didn't have the idea to intervene in this matter, and now the practice of the Kevin family just fits our heart, doesn't it?" Leo said indifferently.
Sylvia pouted and said, "Although the words are said, one is that we left ourselves and the other is being taken away. It always feels a bit unpleasant to think about it."
In fact, in the past two days, they have already prepared to leave, and their suitcases are ready. Even if Carriage doesn’t say that in the end, they will get paid and leave, only Carriage said. That sentence actually made the meaning of leaving different.
"Let's go!" Leo didn't struggle with whether he was driven away or left by himself. He was more concerned about the next destination, in the mountains at the junction of Dilyat and Maris, the real high tower. The wizard tower is located.
The two left the room with a suitcase, went down to the hotel, got on the carriage arranged by the hotel, and went to Hongye Manor on the outskirts of Moonlight City.
When leaving, Leo and Sylvia clearly felt that they were being watched. Obviously the blood race was determining whether they had left. The sense of surveillance did not disappear until the carriage left the city of Moonlight City.
Hongye Manor on the outskirts of Moonlight City was originally a blood clan industry, but after the witch group rescued the blood clan and took some agreements with the blood clan, the blood clan gave the manor to the witch clan.
After getting this manor, because it was too close to Moonlight City, the witch group did not intend to set up here as a resident, just transformed the house and other things in accordance with their wishes, and became a summer residence shared by the witch group. Every once in a while, a witch will come here to take a vacation.
Sylvia came here by airship, and she was stored in the Hongye Manor, both because of the hidden environment here and because of the witch group's own staff.
In the past, the witch groups were fighting alone, so when the church hunted the witch, the witch of the witch group even if there were many hunters who robbed the church, most of them died under the siege of the hunter.
And the witch also thought about forming her own gestures~www.readwn.com~, but at that time, most of the witch who could be attracted by the witch were some blind family members, cultists, etc., which also made the witch's reputation. Even more notorious, it is difficult to recruit useful personnel.
It wasn't until the church was weak and the power of the aristocratic kingdom became stronger that the witch began to associate with the aristocratic power and merged into the nobility, which made the witch's situation better.
Although it is still difficult to recruit people directly, it is not a problem to cultivate oneself, so each witch will cultivate loyalty to his own staff based on his own economic strength.
The people in Hongye Manor are the manpower cultivated by the king-selector Saran, and these men are already the third and fourth generations. Their fathers and grandparents are all under the hands of Saran, and their loyalty is higher than that of the servants of the big nobles. More reliable, and because Saran spares no effort to cultivate, these people are also very strong, almost each can be comparable to the church knight, and some are extraordinary.
Normally, these people will be arranged by Saran in a few witch groups to stay in the kingdom of Marais. When they are in trouble, they will be transferred to other places. The Red Leaf Manor is in Asha County, and the church is the weakest. In addition, with the agreement with the blood, it has become the first choice for Saran’s placement. According to statistics, at least more than 70 people here are carefully trained by Saran.
