my age of magic

Chapter 1430 234. That kid

The first block, the Babington family estate.

The Babington family has ruled the city of San Carlos for generations, which is the largest industrial city in the Grimm Empire. At the same time, the Babington family also controls the plane of Ahnquilador, where five large mithril mines are currently concentrated. In the field, Ahnqiladuo was once occupied by the Nacoma people in the deep prison, which led to a shortage of mithril mines in the Grimm Empire. The private army of the Babington family could not face the Nacoma people in the deep prison independently. In the Mithril market, His Royal Highness Prince Charles was sent to conquer the multi-dimensional plane of Ahn'Qirad.

Today, more than 70.00% of the magic rune boards are sent from the city of San Carlos to all parts of the country. The Babington family has enough voice and dominance over magic rune boards.That's why the Rune Tablet Vendors Conference was held at Babington's manor.

Whenever this traditional magic manufacturing industry is mentioned, people first think of the Babington family.

This year's Magic Rune Board Supplier Conference, I was actually invited to participate, which was somewhat beyond my expectations.

First of all, the grievances between me and the Babington family can be reversed to last summer. I had some conflicts with Duke Ryan Busman because of Aliya's relationship. Finally, with the help of all parties, Ryan Duke Ann Busman returned to the Warsaw plane in despair, and Alia regained her freedom.In this matter, there are more or less shadows of the Babington family contributing to the flames.

Alia's late husband, Colin Babington, was the first in line heir of the Babington family. As Colin Babington's widow, Alia should have had a higher status in the Babington family. But this is not the case in reality. The person who made the power in Aliya's hands is the current heir of the Babington family, Billy Babington.The Marquess of Billy Babington worried that Aliya's reputation in the Babington family would affect his right to rule the Babington family in the future, so he tried every means to drive Alicia out of the Babington family.

More than a dozen affiliated planes of the Babington family encountered a plane war at the same time, which directly led to the shortage of mithril ore in the Koglin Empire. More than half of the magic rune plate workshops in San Carlos City were in a state of suspension. Blank mithril runes The tablet was sold out of stock in the imperial capital. At that time, it was also by chance that the adamantine solution was obtained from the Francis scholar, and the adamantine rune tablet was successfully produced. This adamantine rune tablet is the main In order to make a miniature tornado rune plate.

After experiencing the betrayal of the two down-and-out nobles, Nick and Brennan, my rune plate workshop grew into the three basic magic runes of 'focus fire', 'miniature tornado' and 'continuous frost' within the imperial capital. The largest supplier of rune boards, probably because of this, I will have a place in this rune board supplier conference.

The day before I participated in the Rune Board Supplier Conference, I was promoted to the second-class Marquis of the Green Empire at the Merit Exchange Office of the Imperial Capital's Logistics and Military Supplies Department.

I think it's not enough to participate in this rune bar supplier conference as an earl, so I took out all the achievements I made in the Hierro plane and was promoted to the second-class marquis in the imperial capital, but I still need Within the specified time limit, only those who own a large territory corresponding to the status of Marquis can truly become Lord Marquis.

The territory of the small town of Trum is obviously still a bit small, so I decided to return to the Hierro plane after participating in this rune plate supplier meeting and discuss it with the ancient war tree Weissman, so that I can become Green Valley The nominal owner of the dense forest, so that my title of marquis can be justified. Now this marquis status is just an extra shiny badge on my chest to me.

The magic caravan was parked at the gate of the Babington family manor. I saw some gorgeous magic caravans parked on the side of the road one after another. From time to time, some nobles and businessmen walked into the manor. I saw that there was still a little time. On the soft leather sofa in the carriage, there was no rush to get out of the carriage.

At this moment, Aliya is leaning against me, leaning against the window and pointing at the nobles who came down from the magic caravan, introducing their identities in detail, and even some nobles, Aliya can accurately tell their preferences.

With a gap period, Aliya finally couldn't help but look at the marquis badge on my chest. This badge is made of a kind of red spar, and it is especially eye-catching when worn on the chest.

Although Aliya has been continuously providing a large amount of urgently needed supplies to the Hierro plane in the imperial capital, she does not know the specific battle situation in the Hierro plane.

She also seemed quite curious about this, staring at me with charming eyes and asked, "How many Nibru spiders have you killed in the Yero plane?"

"Guess... I'm the one who holds the ten Knight Orders of the Northern Wind Legion in my hands, so don't underestimate my strength." I said with a smile.

Aliya has experienced the battle life in the Hierro plane, and knows where our advantages are. She didn't guess the specific number. She said to me with a half-smile: "With the selfless help of Duke Jingyue, all of you The nobles dream of taking a big step, what's next? What are your plans? Becoming the Duke of the Grimm Empire is not an easy task. Among the hundred dukes, if you want to be among them, you must squeeze out the one hundredth to get your place."

Hearing what Aliya said, I knew that the Dukes of the Green Empire were ranked.

"Squeeze?" I asked.

Alicia put her pointed chin in her hands, squinted her eyes and said to me: "When the power in your hands is almost as strong as those dukes, then you have the power to challenge any duke in the Grimm Empire. This kind of power war between the dukes is to use their own strength to speak to the army."

So I asked: "You mean, as long as I defeat a certain duke of the Grimm Empire, I can replace him as the new Duke of the Grimm Empire?"

Aliya nodded, her eyes flashed a bright light, as if yearning for something she was pursuing, she murmured: "That's almost the case, but there are many laws and regulations of the Green Empire that are specific to the original guard. The protection strategy of the duke, for example, the dukes who are caught in the war of the plane can be exempted from the war. In addition, the duke of the guard can borrow troops from the dukes of the alliance in private, so it is not necessary to replace the existing duke It is an easy task, and there are many other factors involved, and the attackers often have to face the power formed by the combination of several dukes."

It turned out that the new duke was not canonized by Emperor Charles the Great, nor was he made by relying on military merits, but by relying on personal strength to replace the existing wealthy nobles of the Green Empire.However, even among the nobles, few people know about this kind of thing, and it is probably only limited to the small circle of the upper-class nobles. After all, if too many people know about this, there may be a big turmoil in the Grimm Empire.

"How do you know this?" I asked Alicia curiously.

Although she is the most famous courtesan in the imperial capital, no one should take the initiative to tell her this kind of thing.

Alia said quite frankly: "Colin always wanted to be the second duke of the Babington family, but unfortunately he died on the plane of Ahnquilador before his wish was fulfilled."

After she finished speaking, she sighed slightly, as if she was sighing for her previous life.

"It's too early to tell me this now!" I said.

Thinking about the total number of all my private troops is less than 1000 people, this force is not enough for those dukes who easily have an army of hundreds of thousands. Thinking of this, my mind gradually cleared up come over.

Aliya turned her head out of the window. At this time, a gust of wind blew away the bangs on her forehead. Her lips were painted with a layer of bright red lip gloss, which looked very attractive. She pursed her lips slightly and said: "Anyway, sooner or later these things must be understood."

Seeing that the number of magic caravans stopped at the gate of Babington Manor gradually decreased, I knew it was almost time for me to appear on the stage. I glanced at Betty and Catalina who were sitting across from each other. Betty was still wearing an apricot yellow gauze dress. The graceful figure is faintly visible under the gauze skirt. This kind of long skirt is almost the most common dress worn by the maids of noble families in the imperial capital, but when it is worn on Betty's body, it will have a different flavor.

And Katarina is wearing a tight-fitting dragon leather armor with a hard leather breastplate magic pattern structure of "Earth Shield". Holding the dagger, she kept her eyes closed in her seat and meditated.

Before getting out of the car, I asked Aliya, "Are you really not going with me?"

Aliya leaned over, held my face in both hands, pecked lightly on my lips, and then said: "I'd better wait for you in the caravan, if I show up, not only will it not be of any help to you, even It will also cause you some trouble."

Seeing that Aliya insisted on refusing to get out of the car, I nodded, then pushed open the carriage door, took Katerina and Betty out of the magic caravan, and walked towards Babington Manor.

……

He showed the pass to the gatekeeper of the manor to participate in the rune plate supplier meeting, and walked into the manor.

Betty has lived here for about six years, and she is very familiar with the manor. Along the way, she kept whispering some anecdotes about the garden lawn, the fountain, the stables and the warehouse. The maids in Babington Manor recognized it, but these maids and servants didn't come over to say hello, they just pointed and exchanged something from a distance.

A tall auction stand was built on the lawn of the manor garden, and a white chair was placed under the auction stand. The nobles and businessmen gathered there, and they sat on the chairs in twos and threes and whispered, making this rune The board supplier meeting was very lively.

I walked to the corner of the last row and sat down. Betty and Katerina sat on the left and right sides of me respectively. I put my arms around her shoulders, and Betty rested her head on my shoulder. A young aristocrat who doesn't behave well in public.

Betty introduced the big shots sitting in the front seats in a low voice. Her voice was waxy and sounded very comfortable.

Katerina sat on the chair with her arms folded and her face indifferent, and she never even glanced at the field.

While Betty and I were whispering, a young nobleman sitting in front of me suddenly turned his head and nodded to me in a friendly way, then looked at Betty carefully, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the apricot yellow color of Betty's body The gauze skirt fell directly on her body, and he let out a sound of admiration, and then looked at Katerina on the other side unscrupulously, but after Katerina sensed it, she raised her head and opened a pair of rubies. He stared fiercely at the young nobleman.

The faint killing intent brought out from the battlefield instantly frightened the young nobleman to turn pale. The young nobleman immediately looked away, but Shan didn't turn his head back. Instead, he smiled kindly at me and glanced at me. I glanced at the Marquis badge on my chest and said: "Your family is really good enough. The Marquis Medal was prepared for you so soon, and you also want to do the business of rune boards? Why have I never seen you before?"

Afterwards, he narrowed his eyes and said to Betty with a smile, "I'm sorry just now, I think you look familiar, but I can't remember where I saw it."

Betty just blinked and didn't speak.

The young nobleman was born familiar, and asked me kindly: "Are you a senior or a junior?"

I stayed for a while before I understood what he was asking, so I replied: "My workshop only makes some elementary rune tablets."

"Recently, the business of elementary rune boards is not easy to do. The profit margin of elementary magic rune boards is too small, and there is not much left after the piece is distributed to the inscriber. The rune board workshop over there is not bad. ?” The young aristocrat probably came to talk, so he turned around and said to me.

"It's okay." I replied.

At this time, some paunchy nobles walked up the front desk of the venue one after another. Betty pointed to one of the middle-aged people and whispered to me: "That is Billy Babington Marquis, the Babington family. a successor."

The young nobleman showed a hint of worry, and said, "This time the mines on the Babington family's plane have been taken back. I don't know how much market share they will take back."

Seeing that I didn't speak, he said to me with an exaggerated expression, "Have you heard that Billy invited that guy over this time?"

"Who?" I asked him with a smile.

The young noble looked carefully to the left and right, and then said to me: "It is said that he is a magic student from the Royal Academy of Magic. That kid is also a character. With his handsome face and sweet words, he won His Highness Qige to Princess Li." At the same time, I hooked up with him. This guy opened a somewhat special rune board workshop in the imperial capital, basically monopolizing the three kinds of magic rune boards... I heard that he has a magic metal solution in his hand. His Royal Highness Qige helped to find the formula, whoever owns that formula can make that special rune board..."

"Um, if that's all you can describe to that magic student, I want to tell you something!"

"...I am the magic student..."
