Chapter 542
Although Reinhardt and the others were amazed by the means in the space domain, Nangong Xiao's posture also made Reinhardt ask quickly.
"Your Highness, do you have a foothold?"
"No." Nangong Xiao was straightforward.
"In this case..."
"If Your Highness doesn't mind, please let the Karsten family show their respect as landlords!"
Before Reinhardt finished speaking, Crusch spoke directly.
Such a scene seems extraordinarily abrupt, even disrespectful, but Reinhardt can understand, he also knows the relationship between Crusch and 'Flier Lugnica', even if the one in front of him is a little different, But for Crusch, he also had different emotions.
And Nangong Xiao didn't care where to spend the night, let alone the relationship between Crusch and 'Flier Lugnica', so he nodded, "Okay."
Nangong Xiao's straightforwardness also made the corners of Kursch's lips twitch slightly, but he quickly restrained his emotions and said very formally, "Your Highness is coming to the humble house. Tired - Felix."
"Yes. Your Highness, please."
When Felix responded, he glanced at his master with a strange expression on his face, and then secretly glanced at Nangong Xiao, his mind was full of thoughts for a moment.
Nangong Xiao ignored it and followed Felix to leave the balcony.
After Felix led Nangong Xiao away for a while, Crusch looked at Reinhardt with a very solemn expression.
"Your Excellency Astrea..."
"Lord Karsten, please just call me Reinhardt." Reinhardt said with a warm smile.
"Okay then, Lord Reinhardt, although it's a bit offensive, but I also want to confirm again, is that really him?"
Reinhardt didn't care about questioning, but kept a warm smile and said, "I guarantee on my personality, Your Highness is Your Highness, there is no doubt about it."
"Is that so..." Although Crusch was well aware of this conclusion, after receiving a more accurate answer, he couldn't help feeling extremely complicated.
It's not as simple as a child's affair, but after the other party's sudden appearance, once the identity is known to outsiders, Lugnica is likely to fall into turmoil.
Reinhardt seemed to see Crusch's worry, so he also put away his smile, and said seriously, "Your Highness doesn't want to appear as a prince for the time being, but in fact, he probably doesn't want this country to be in turmoil. After all, the kingdom. Many soldiers are staunch followers of the descendants of the 'Lion King', and they suspect that the 'Royal Curse' is a conspiracy by the 'Dragon' and the Wise Men's Society. Once His Highness steps forward at this time, maybe..."
Reinhardt didn't finish his sentence, but Crusch could understand that this was also one of Crusch's worries.
Apart from her personal reasons, Duke Karsten's lineage was originally a staunch follower of the royal line, so how could they not know the situation in the kingdom and army.
Even her father, Duke Karsten, was secretly one of the skeptics, and thus supported her idea of the king.
"Although I don't know what your lord's plan is, and I'm not qualified to ask about it, but His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince seems to want to realize that great ideal through other means. I think you can hear this, my lord.
And I really hope to take a look at the great vision His Highness described back then. "
"Is this the attitude of the contemporary 'Sword Master'?" Crusch asked calmly.
"This is just my personal opinion, Reinhardt."
"Really..." Crusch lowered his eyelids, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Your Excellency Reinhardt, thank you so much for supporting me in time."
"No, I happened to be passing by your mansion during the night patrol, and by coincidence, I received Felix's magical help signal, so I arrived so quickly."
"coincide?"
"Maybe this is fate." Reinhardt said with a smile.
"Fate..." Crusch tasted the word, but nodded and smiled, "In short, I am very grateful."
"Your Excellency is welcome."
Reinhardt didn't stay for long, and after a few polite words with Crusch, he offered to leave.
But when he was leaving, he couldn't help but glanced at Wilhelm who had been waiting behind Kurshul. Unfortunately, Wilhelm's eyelids were drooping and he didn't respond. A little more helplessness.
Crusch originally wanted to personally send Reinhardt away, but Reinhardt refused, so when the servant took her place to send Reinhardt out of the duke's mansion, Crusch looked back at him. Wilhelm.
"Mr. Will, what do you think?"
Wilhelm said with a little emotion, "Master Crusch, although he is very puzzled, the existence of that person is indeed a fact. If that person really stands up... After all, this country is based on the 'Lugnica'. 'It is named after this surname, no matter how much people rely on the protection of the 'dragon', they will not be able to get rid of the imprint of 'the people of the Lugnica family' in a short time.
Restlessness is already doomed, so I don't know how bad it will turn out. "
"Too."
"Master Crusch, the fifth candidate hasn't appeared yet, we still have a lot of time, so we might as well wait and see what happens, and see what that candidate wants to do first."
"Hmm..." Crusch nodded, but then gave a wry smile with some embarrassment.
"grown ups?"
Crusch didn't shy away either, "I don't know how to face that person. They are exactly the same, but they are very clear that this person is not him, um, not all of him."
"..." Wilhelm hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "My lord, maybe you just need to treat him as Lugnica's only royal blood. As for the rest, I'm sorry I can't do anything about it."
"Mr. Will, I see, thank you."
Crusch took a deep breath, she already knew what attitude she should use to face that person, or rather, it was decided in this way, but she just couldn't help being 'willful'.
"Your Excellency, please be polite. If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
"Thank you, Teacher Will."
Wilhelm didn't say much, and left the balcony after saluting.
Crusch gazed at the lights in the city and was lost in thought for a long time. Finally, he reached out to pick up the unfinished glass of wine from the dining table, drank it all, and then turned and left the balcony...
......
In a luxurious guest room arranged by Felix, Nangong Xiao is identifying the characters of this world with the help of Felix.
Felix was very shocked by Nangong Xiao's request, but he still complied with this request and carefully helped him identify the characters.
During the process, Felix confirmed that this general-purpose character who really doesn’t understand the world, but the learning speed is a bit scary, any character and grammar can be read once, as if he has the ability of photographic memory .
So in less than an hour, the person in front of me has already mastered the basic reading ability of the common language.
Seeing this man sitting in front of the desk flipping through a brief history book of Lugnica Kingdom, Felix hesitated again and again, and finally bit the bullet and asked.
"That, Your Highness..."
"Huh?" Nangong Xiao stopped 'flipping the book' and looked at Felix.
Felix froze slightly, but he didn't know how to ask. After all, that indifferent gaze really put a lot of pressure on him.
However, Nangong Xiao probably also knew the doubts of the other party, so he explained casually, "I said that Felije Lugnica is me, but I am not just Fuliye Lugnica. As for why there is no relationship Memories and cognition of this world are also very simple. After all, I did not grow up in this world, and I did not deliberately receive the memory of the identity of Flier Lugnica. Therefore, the removal of Flier Lugni Regardless of my identity, you can treat me as someone from another world."
Felix was even more confused, because such an answer sounded like he was talking about two unrelated people, but his friend Reinhardt was very sure that this was the fourth prince Your Highness, he doesn't doubt that someone can deceive Reinhardt, and because of this, he feels even more confused.
Of course, it is also impossible to just treat the person in front of him as someone from another world because of this.
Felix was a little out of his mind, so he finally had to speak bravely.
"Well, His Highness's statement is really inappropriate, even if no one will question Reinhardt's judgment."
"I don't care what other people think."
"Uh..."
"As I said, I'm not interested in playing house games with those nobles. I came to this world because of some needs. Not to mention the Kingdom of Lugnica, this world is of little value to me."
Nangong Xiao said casually, but what he said was the truth.
Because in addition to the special abilities added to the world such as "protection" and "power", there is only population left in this world with some value, and it is not the different world where the Kingdom of Lugnica is located, but Cai Yue. In the modern world before Ang traveled, after all, the different world continent where the Kingdom of Lugnica was located was very small compared to modern Earth due to productivity and frequent wars.
Although there is no accurate data, the Kingdom of Lugnica, as one of the top ten countries on this continent, has a rough population of about 50 million people, which is still about [-] slums outside the city. 'Untouchables' count.
It can be seen that the population of various ethnic groups in this different world continent is very limited, perhaps less than one-tenth of the population of the modern earth.
Of course, this is just the preliminary information that Nangong Xiao relied on the plants in this city to feed back. There is no doubt about the accuracy, but there are limitations. The actual data should fluctuate to a certain extent, but under normal circumstances, there will not be much That's the error.
"This is really..." Facing Nangong Xiao's answer, Felix didn't know what to say, but he also found a problem, that is, although this person seems to be difficult to get along with, in essence, Seems to be a 'good talker' master.
"Can you give me some more books?" Nangong Xiao asked again at this time.
Felix blinked and nodded, "Okay, what kind of books do you need?"
"Biography, history, etc., if possible, please also give me some books related to cultivation. There is no need for any secret books, the kind of public basic cultivation knowledge is enough."
"Oh, Your Highness, please talk later~"
After Felix responded, he hurriedly went to the study to get the book himself.
And after Felix left, Nangong Xiao couldn't help but glanced at the closed door, and muttered with a weird face, "If I didn't know that this guy is a big guy in women's clothing, I really couldn't pass the appearance, figure, temperament, etc. Judging gender from one aspect... If a bigwig of this level of women's clothing is placed in his hometown, I don't know how many tough men he will break, tsk tsk—"
Chapter 543 Preliminary Cooperation - Part [-]
Felix called a few servants of the Duke's mansion to help move the books, of course he didn't hide anything from Crusch.
When Crusch learned through Felix that this was the request of that person, and the fact that that person knew almost nothing about some common sense knowledge of this world, Crusch was also surprised, but not unacceptable.
Just like Wilhelm said, he just regarded the other party as a person with the direct bloodline of the Lugnica royal family.
Even so, Crusch couldn't help being curious, and went to the guest room where that person was placed.
But before going to the guest room, she had to change into a decent set of clothes, at least not too casual.
Putting on the decent men's clothes she used to go out with, Crusch knocked on the door of the guest room.
After a faint "please come in" sounded in the room, Crusch opened the door and walked in.
What catches the eye is hundreds of books spread out on the floor, desks, desks, etc., or laid flat. It doesn't look messy, but it is very complicated.
And Nangong Xiao, who was sitting on the sofa, was flipping the pages of the book quickly at this moment, and bursts of beautiful pale green light flashed from the left wrist holding the book, scanning the pages of the book from time to time.
Although I can't understand what they are doing, Nangong Xiao's action of turning the pages of the book with his head lowered and his eyes fixed does not look like he is reading a book. After all, how can normal people read so fast?
Nangong Xiao was 'flipping' the book, while Felix personally explained some proper nouns, while the two servants of the Duke's mansion made tea and sorted out the books they had read.
After Crusch came in, Felix and two servants stood up and saluted.
After Kuerxiu waved his hand to excuse him, Nangong Xiao, who quickly turned the book without looking up, said, "What's the matter?"
"..."
Such an unceremonious, even somewhat attitude and tone towards his subordinates did not offend Crusch, and even made her somewhat dazed.
"Ok?"
Seeing that Crusch did not respond, Nangong Xiao also looked away from the contents of the book and looked at Crusch.
"Cough." Crusch woke up with a start, quickly regained his composure, and then randomly found a topic to stagger, "Your Highness's reading speed is really fast."
"Ordinary people who deliberately exercise their reading skills can basically read at no slow speed."
Nangong Xiao said casually, after all, with his current normal physique of more than [-], the corresponding effective use of the brain is actually not much worse than some low-level supercomputers. This kind of knowledge entry and absorption close to scanning Speed is really nothing.
If it weren't for some proper nouns that were difficult to understand, he could read books faster.
As for Nangong Xiao's words, Crusch didn't know how to answer them, but at this time Nangong Xiao said again.
"You came just in time, I have some things I want to confirm."
When Nangong Xiao said that, Crusch paused for a moment and agreed, so he waved his hand to let the servant go down, then came to the sofa opposite Nangong Xiao, and sat down gracefully.
After the servant closed the door, Felix also came behind Kursch and stood there quietly.
Crusch asked very calmly, "What do you want to confirm, Your Highness?"
"There are some." Nangong Xiao stopped the scanning records of the smart watch, and at the same time closed the book on the basic cognition of the world's magic system, and then said, "Excuse me, the land where the slums outside the city are located belongs to the private land of the nobles. , or belong to the kingdom's public land? How did it come about?"
Crusch and Felix were slightly taken aback when they heard the words, but Crusch also frowned, and replied, "To be precise, that piece of land is all privately owned by the royal family, but since the year before last, the Lugnica royal family Bad news happened one after another in the direct and collateral lines. It happened that irresistible natural disasters happened in several cities near the capital of Lugnica, which caused refugees to flock to the capital. It has become a slum of this size, and because it is the royal family’s private land, the royal family’s people... so no one has been managing it.”
"The royal family's private land...something happened to the royal family, so no one manages it. The disadvantages of the noble co-governance system." After shaking his head, Nangong Xiao said, "If there is an outsider who spends a lot of money to buy that land, the current kingdom management Would you like to sell it?"
"This..." Both Crusch and Felix looked a little embarrassed.
Seeing the expressions of Crusch and Felix, Nangong Xiao paused for a moment and seemed to understand something, "Don't care about my feelings. After all, I have almost no sense of belonging to the Lugnica royal family."
Nangong Xiao had already talked to this point, although he felt a little uncomfortable, but he understood it, so Crusch said it bluntly, "According to the kingdom's past property inheritance practices, the nobles of the kingdom will acquiesce that this is the future new king. His private wealth can only be left untouched until a new king is determined."
"And the slums above are also left alone?"
"Yes."
Both Crusch and Felix felt slightly ashamed.
