Eastern mythology system

Chapter 35 A Belated Talent

The scene when he held the magic stone for the first time is as vivid in Anthony's mind as yesterday.

The excitement and longing of teenagers, the expectations of grandparents and parents, and the curiosity of servants.After the imperceptible gleam of light faintly flashed by the measuring magic stone, all eyes dimmed.At the same time, what dimmed was the heart of a teenager.

The young man was not convinced, and tested the second and third times, but the light remained unchanged.

The young man doesn't believe in evil, so he brings in other magic stones, try again!
The situation remains unchanged.

The boy confirmed this cruel fact.But the boy is very strong, he is not intimidated by reality, he still insists on his belief.

However, the disappointment that could not be completely concealed in the eyes of his father, mother and grandpa deeply hurt his young heart.He didn't want to let his closest family members be sad and disappointed, and he didn't want to accept the shame imposed on him by God.So he is still diligent, still working hard, and still unremittingly pursuing his own path of being a strong man.

However, in the eyes of others, this is just an evasive behavior of the teenager who is unwilling to face reality.

For a long time, the teenager has never been able to make his relatives erase the shadow of disappointment in his eyes, and he has never been able to bring pride and pride to his relatives once.

Now, with the help of the "Oriental Mythology System", under the cover of being a bloodline inheritor, the "adult" Anthony, who has successfully passed the assessment and inherited the title of the family's lord, has finally obtained the strength, honor and status that he had dreamed of before.

However, none of the closest family members he wanted to share this joy with was gone now.

But when he no longer cared about his talent in magic or battle qi, he was suddenly told that he was a top-level magic genius, and he was also a genius of all kinds of magic.

what!
Anthony stared blankly at the brilliantly handmade magic-testing stone, and the first thought in his mind was not surprise, excitement, or even surprise, but anger and helplessness.

God, and gods all over the sky, are you playing with me? !
In another tall building opposite Zuixiang Building, the window of a room facing this side was wide open.

At this time, there was an old man standing in front of the window.

The old man has a square face, gray hair, and wrinkles on his face that look like swords.When people see him for the first time, what naturally comes to mind is gold and iron horses, iron and blood.

The old man quietly watched the lively scene of the treasure guessing scene below, his rock-like resolute face remained unmoved in the slightest.It's just that there is a strong interest in the eyes of the boy holding the magic stone in his hand.

A middle-aged man half a body behind the old man's left, sensed the interest in the old man's eyes, and asked for instructions: "My lord, that is the newly recruited priest of the Hilton family, the young man who has been hotly discussed among the nobles in the city recently. Genius, Anthony Bruce. Do you want your subordinates to come over and say hello to him?"

Your Excellency the Duke!

The Glorious Empire has only six provinces, and only six grand dukes.And the Lord Duke in Edinburgh can only be the highest official of the province of Edinburgh, the Grand Duke of Matthias.

Grand Duke Mattesias is now in his 60s.He was born in a small noble with little reputation, and with almost no family support, he was promoted step by step purely by military merit, and was finally named one of the only six dukes in the empire.

The Grand Duke fought countless battles throughout his life, and spent half of his life on the battlefield. He made great contributions to the expansion of the empire's borders and defended the land, and was known as the God of the Empire.And under the incomparably dazzling halo of the military god, another title of the Grand Duke that is only passed down among a few people is concealed: Bole.

The Grand Duke controls nearly a quarter of the empire's army, and his generals are like clouds, and counselors are like rain.Many of them were promoted from low-level military officers or even small soldiers by the Grand Duke's insight.And the people who are valued by the Grand Duke must prove his vision of knowing people with their own strength in the end.

The middle-aged man has followed the Grand Duke for many years and is very familiar with his temperament.At a glance, you can tell that the Grand Duke has a love for money again.Now take the initiative to invite Ying to get in touch with that young man who is in the limelight.

The Grand Duke was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head: "Forget it."

Naturally, middle-aged people will not just "say hello" to Anthony, but take the initiative to contact, test, and then poach people.

It's just that the boy is already Hilton's enshrinement after all, and after what happened last time, everyone has already made a fuss.If you blatantly poach someone's corner, spreading the word will damage the reputation of the Grand Duke's Mansion.

Then the Grand Duke Mattesias frowned, and asked suspiciously: "That young man named Anthony, didn't he say that he has no talent for practicing magic and fighting spirit at all? The powerful strength he is known for all comes from his own blood inheritance. Why does it look like his magic talent is so good that it almost defies the sky?"

The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, and quickly searched for information about this young genius in his mind.In the end, he replied in bewilderment: "This, the subordinates don't know."

In another room not far from Grand Duke Mattesias, some people were also paying attention to what happened in the Zuixianglou compound.

And the focus of their attention is also the much-anticipated young genius Anthony.

Unlike the Grand Duke, they looked at Anthony with less appreciation and expectation, and more vigilance and worry.

One of them was a tall man who seemed to be the leader of the crowd, fixed his eyes on Anthony, and said without looking back: "The situation has changed, please report to Lord Marquis immediately. That kid is not a double waste material, at least he has a good talent for magic." It’s overwhelmed. I don’t know if his physique changed after the awakening of his bloodline, or if he concealed his own strength. No matter what the situation is, we need to revise the comprehensive evaluation of that kid. Do you hear clearly?”

A person behind him bowed his hands and replied, "Yes! I heard you clearly."

The leader waved his hand back and said, "Go."

The man cupped his hands again, turned and opened the door, and walked out.

After a long time, the leader turned around, walked back to the round table in the room, and sat down slowly.

There was an extremely burly man sitting at the table.Among ordinary people, the leader is considered tall.But compared to this guy, he was like a delicate little girl.

While the man was eating and drinking on his own, the leader and a group of people went to the window to check, and he didn't even lift his head.Obviously, his status is not comparable to that of a large number of followers.

When the leader sat down again, the man wiped his mouth and said in a relaxed tone: "I said, second brother, do you need to be so serious? Since he is from the annoying Hilton family, it doesn't matter whether he is a genius or not, potential talent or something , Let me go up and kill him, and there will be no threat. Even if he is really a silver beginner, I don't believe that he can stop my ax."

The leader gave him a blank look, shook his head and said, "This is the city of Edinburgh, right under the nose of the Grand Duke. If you want to act like this, you will be caught by the Duke's guards, don't blame us for not going to rescue you."

The man said with a resentful face: "Well, count that kid as lucky."

Then he lowered his head and fought hard with the food and wine on the table.
