No wonder the kid is so rude and angry.
"Because you are so outstanding..." Reinina felt emotion and pity in her heart and responded subconsciously. However, just after she finished speaking, she realized something was wrong and quickly explained:
"Arkan's actions have nothing to do with the royal family. I am also afraid that you will have a misunderstanding and know that you are close to my sister Yalana, so I came to see you."
The sarcasm on Luo Gesi's face became even more intense when he heard this. He stared at the other person as if looking at an enemy and said slowly:
"Yes, just because you are close to Professor Alanna, you have the opportunity and ability to reveal the news in advance to those magic schools that resist the birth of linguistics, and let them go to St. Helte to force me to make an explanation... "
His face showed only suspicion, hatred and resistance towards Lenina, but no trust at all.
Lenina suddenly recalled a little white tiger she had encountered while hunting in the north. The little white tiger was also frightened, but had to be on guard and grinning in order to survive...
The child has now concluded that the royal family has taken away his ability to walk, and also believes that the royal family is preparing to take away more. At the moment, there is no way to communicate with him normally, let alone explain anything.
The little maid standing next to Lenina, when she heard that Logos was forced by several magic schools after the linguistics leaked, her eyebrows drooped unconsciously, her lips bit together gently, and there was a hint of faintness. of shame.
“I want more people to be educated, and I want to bring more theories and creations into the world. I will not fall until I see the future that I want.
"Anything that can't kill me will make me stronger!" Rogers' eyes became firm and bright, like an unshakable star. He clutched the handle of the staff tightly and spoke to Lenina in a clear and powerful voice. declare.
Then he leaned on the cane and swayed slightly, focusing all his strength on the action of standing up, but every trembling reaction could only further highlight the fragility and struggle of his body.
Lenina wanted to reach out to help her, but was slapped away by Rogers' merciless palm. This almost made him lose his balance when he was about to stand up. Fortunately, Hans on the side had quick eyesight and quick hands, and supported his young master's arm in time.
Luo Gesi's expression was tangled for a moment, as if he had figured out something before he said:
"I don't like war either, so I can let Alkan go, but the Santan tribe must hand over five hundred bronze-level tribesmen, and these people must be sinners who have participated in raiding and robbing ordinary citizens."
When he finished speaking, he said no more, nodded and motioned for Hans to help him leave.
Lenina watched Luo Gesi's fading figure, lowered her eyes to the palm that had just been opened, and let out a helpless sigh, floating in the air.
"I want to enroll in Saint Helte!" The little maid clenched her hands into fists and said to Lenina with a firm expression:
"I once saw an article in the Imperial City newspaper saying that Luo Gesi was bullied by Saint Helte. I thought it was just a deliberate irony to attract attention, but now it seems that this may be true.
"I also understand why my eldest brother likes to praise Luo Gesi from time to time recently. Such a noble person should not suffer such injustice.
“He looked very innocent and without any scheming. After that, he was unable to lay the foundation stone and it became inconvenient to walk.
"The bullying of him by those hateful students will definitely get worse because of this. I need to do what the moral law directs me to do. Moreover, I already owe him something..."
Lenina slowly stood up and smoothed the folds of her skirt in an arc with her hands. She did not comment on the decision of the little maid beside her, but reminded her softly: "But you must not use the above words as an excuse."
"Of course! I'm not the fool who said everything to others just now!" The little maid put her hands on her hips, obviously disgusted with Lenina's contempt for her.
……
Rogers was leaning on a cane. He was now able to walk three or four steps independently without Hans' help.
"Master, please don't be too angry. The Earl can definitely protect you." Hans reached out to help Luo Gesi when he was about to lose his balance completely. After a moment's hesitation, he decided to comfort him a little presumptuously.
"I'm fine." Rogers patted the back of Hans' hand unexpectedly. He didn't expect that even Hans didn't realize that he was just acting.
One hundred cavalrymen participating in the cavalry fight have been captured, but the number of people who need to be sacrificed for laying the foundation is still less than . It is impossible for Luo Gesi to issue an orderly request, so he mentioned a common number.
As for the remaining number of people, he felt that if he couldn't find a better solution before the end of the summer vacation, he would have no choice but to recruit some cultists to join them.
Although bronze-level soldiers are not rare, they are not common either. The loss of six hundred bronze-level soldiers at once is extremely unbearable for the Santan tribe.
Two days ago, Luo Gesi asked his father to tentatively make this request. After the other party learned about it, he didn't hesitate much and quickly replied directly rejecting it.
If Alkan is killed as soon as he has the guts, the Santan tribe will never surrender the style of a tribal warrior.
If we can add pressure from the royal family this time, and then let the goddess push it forward, we may be able to increase the success rate by a lot.
As long as the foundation can be laid, the painful drama just now will not be in vain.
But his original purpose in acting was just not to be dragged into the endless wrangling, but the feeling that Lenina gave him didn't seem to be very hostile.
Moreover, the little maid next to Lenina is also very weird. She looks a little younger than him, and her appearance is too ordinary. Even the smallest noble will not bring such a maid with him. That's right.
While Luo Gesi was thinking about all the abnormalities just now, he was imagining the wonderful scene of being able to practice advanced magic spells such as transformation and flying after boarding Silver. As his thoughts gradually wandered away, he almost stumbled again. Fall to the ground.
Chapter 4: The joys and sorrows of fate are always so unpredictable (k)
White clouds float like cotton in the blue sky, the sun is warm and hot, and the grass is illuminated with a vibrant color.
In the backyard of the villa, the attendants built an awning with wooden poles and canvas, and placed a long table under the awning.
Lufia, who hurried to the Green Valley because she was worried about Logos, found out that Logos had not really lost the ability to walk. She was pinned down by Alina on the long table and learned many things in the second half of the second grade. semester knowledge.
Alice sat not too far away from the two of them, flipping through the study materials compiled for her by the vice-principal, as well as the notes on the linguistics of spells given to her by Rogers.
Rogers himself held a cane alone and walked slowly around the backyard, gradually getting used to walking with a cane.
In addition to walking with a stick, he also held a piece of paper in his other hand, which recorded many things that happened in the East Territory on and off the table. This was the "newspaper" specially prepared by Earl Breed for his son.
After being unable to withstand the pressure from many parties, the Santan tribe finally chose to deliver bronze-level soldiers in exchange for the young patriarch Alkan.
The above is a reasonable and expected development. After a brief glance, Luo Gesi looked at the more interesting things that followed, which he had participated in the design of.
In order to cope with the gradually expanding and violent market, Earl Breed specially issued an initiative. He will unite the lords of the Eastern Territory to establish a new institution-the Central Bank of the Eastern Territory.
In order to make this bank appear more formal and prevent the public from mistaking it for some new aristocratic game, Earl Breed and Earl Devin took the lead in organizing all the lords with minting power in the Eastern Territory and established the "Eastern Territory Unification Association". Provisional Parliament of Coinage”.
In order to cater to the currency reform, Earl Breed led the entire Eastern Territory to abolish the law that levied a certain proportion of physical taxes on seaports, roads, and bridges. Instead, he invented the concept of Eastern Territory tariffs, and then established the "Eastern Territory" Import and Export Supervision and Administration Commission".
In order to entertain those who heard that the Eastern Territory was consolidating coinage rights, organizing unified finance, and establishing customs, groups of congressmen and envoys came from the imperial capital.
Earl Breed generously announced that he would set aside a special area in the Breed Territory to build an "embassy" to accommodate visitors to the imperial capital.
At the same time, Earl Breed also responded to the emperor's call and forgave Earl Dement for cursing Logos and pushing him to sleepless land.
In order to prove the sincerity of the Breed family to the emperor, the earl united with many eastern lords to make large-scale investments in Demont Territory and planned an industrial zone for it.
Just to ensure that the interests of the lords were protected, the Eastern Territory organized a "merchant protection corps" to be stationed in order to protect the industrial area in Dement Territory from being destroyed. It was also very reasonable.
According to rumors, His Majesty the Emperor, who was far away in the imperial capital, stood up from his throne happily after hearing about everything that happened in the Eastern Territory. His face flushed with excitement due to the vigorous development of the Eastern Territory, and he pointed at the parliamentarians in the palace hall. He praised the lords of the Eastern Territory endlessly all afternoon.
If it hadn't been for the strong dissuasion of several parliamentarians and ministers, His Majesty the Emperor might have personally led the Royal Knights and the Royal Guards Corps to come to the Eastern Territory non-stop to visit and study, and to commend the Eastern Territory lords.
"His Majesty the Emperor has such a broad mind..."
Looking at the contents on the paper, Luo Gesi couldn't help but let out a sigh that seemed to be suppressing a smile.
rustle--
While he was reading, there was a sudden sound of something crushing on the grass in front of him. When he lowered his eyes and looked down, he saw that it was the shadow demon rolling around on the lawn idly with a straw in its mouth. .
Luo Gesi frowned slightly, and just as he was about to go around him, the Shadow Demon suddenly jumped up. It imitated Luo Gesi's walking stick and slowly circled around Luo Gesi's body. There will also be a few exaggerated movements of pinching the chin or adjusting the glasses.
Snapped--
The cane turned into a dark afterimage and instantly slapped the shadow demon on the butt.
"Ah! It hurts so much! Alice! Ooooh...Rogs hit me!"
The shadow demon's eyes became moist, and it tightly covered its buttocks with both hands. Its calves swung rapidly and ran towards the awning. It cried and complained vaguely to Alice about Logos's evil deeds.
Alice did not go to help Shadow Demon ask for an explanation, but helplessly let him throw himself into his arms, reaching out to wipe the tears on his face.
According to the normal timeline, the Holy Maiden should have been busy in the south at this time, dealing with the curse of Eunice and the minor disaster in the Benedictine Monastery.
Rogers looked back at the scene under the awning, his eyes reflecting the sunlight, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and a faint smile flowed out.
Time passed quickly, and for more than January during the summer vacation, Luo Gesi lived in the villa most of the time.
During this period, the First Prince wanted to come to see him or invite him to the imperial capital many times, but he refused without mercy.
Towards the end of the holiday, Alice returned to St. Helte ahead of schedule, not knowing why the vice-principal summoned her for an emergency.
……
As dusk fell, the orange glow penetrated the sparse clouds and dyed the entire sky golden.
The villa showed layers of shadows in the interplay of light and shadow. Rogers sat cross-legged alone on the grass in the backyard, with a huge parchment spread between his legs.
The dull sheepskin is covered with fine wrinkles and mottled flaws, but the words in the middle are extremely clear - dedicate everything to Rogers Braid.
The area surrounding this sentence was covered with bloody thumbprints.
The sixty-six fingerprints tightly packed around the words are from cultists, and the remaining six hundred fingerprints scattered around are from the Santan tribe.
Logos took out three small glasses from the magic book floating aside, containing salt, sulfur, and mercury respectively, symbolizing body, spirit, and soul.
He placed the three vials in front of him in a triangular position.
Immediately, he muttered vague words full of profanity.
The general idea is nothing more than praising the bottomless pit, hoping that the other party can deliver the promised gift.
The shadows around him became faintly poking as he murmured, and the light gradually became dim.
"In the name of Logos Braid."
After seeing that the time was almost up, Rogers threw the parchment among the three vials.
boom--
Without warning, a purple flame rose from the sheepskin roll. The flames were twisted and violent, as if they had their own vitality, jumping and dancing in the air, making a slight crackling sound.
The bloody fingerprints on the sheepskin roll were licked one by one by the dancing tongues of fire and began to disappear gradually, while a few wisps of smoke lingered around the sheepskin roll.
The wails and screams echoed back and forth in the smoke, just like the pain and anger of the victims. It destroyed the silent atmosphere and blurred the boundaries between the present world and the unexplored place.
Then, the flames extended further, completely enveloping the three small bottles.
When Rogers saw this scene, he narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the condition of the small bottle.
In these three bottles, except for salt, the other two are not good things.
As time passed, fortunately, no accidents occurred. The flames formed a strange magic circle with three rings nested inside each other, in which countless twisted characters rose and fell.
"Huh? It's over?"
Luo Gesi stared at the rapidly disappearing flames. The contents of the three vials were now gone. The parchment also looked charred black. The breeze blew by, bringing up a piece of broken and flying ashes.
Although the older the ritual, the simpler it is, it doesn't make me feel anything other than sloppy. When I drank the 'Fountain of Wisdom' to upgrade bronze in the Great Hall of St. Helta, the feedback my body received was very... Intense.
When he was wondering whether he had been cheated, a strong resonance suddenly emerged from his heart, as if there was a strange power connecting his body, spirit and soul.
At this moment, he heard a sound, a real and familiar sound, as if coming from a distant memory, sweeping through every corner of his mind.
Emotions surged deep in his heart, bringing a long-lost touch. He seemed to feel a name, which was called "Luo Gesi", his real name.
Logos touched his chest with his hand, and he could feel the indescribable power spreading from here.
"In the name of Logos."
After whispering, he opened his palm, and a magic ribbon in the shape of a Möbius ring appeared instantly.
"My name has an occult symbol?"
Generally speaking, apart from gods and demigods, the only ones who can gain symbolic bonuses to their true names are those who have achieved great achievements.
Luo Gesi's throat rolled, his eyes widened, and he stared at the "perfect" Möbius strip.
He had a vague feeling in his heart that all the magic skills he created could be driven by his true name and increase the power of all aspects when casting spells.
This is not a blessing from the world, but an ability that naturally awakens after the foundation is successfully laid.
The afterglow gradually dissipated, and the sky began to show a dark color, leaving only a faint halo struggling on the horizon.
Luo Gesi quickly regained his composure, and while he threw the three empty bottles into the magic book, he praised the product from the Bottomless Pit in his heart.
His strength unknowingly increased a lot. When he used his cane to support his body, it was obviously much easier than before.
It was only the growth in strength and the ability to skillfully control this power that prevented Luo Gesi from immediately noticing the changes in his body.
Before the afterglow completely dissipated, Rogers returned to the bedroom in the villa.
Rufia was sitting at the desk with a frown on her face as usual, while Elena was lying on the bed, flipping through a book with her hands raised high.
"What's with that expression on your face?"
When Rogers just closed the door, Alina put the book on the bed and looked sideways at Rogers' appearance.
"Oh? What's the expression?" Luo Gesi reached out and rubbed his face, silently driving the magic power to light up the crystal chandelier under the ceiling, and then closed the curtains.
Wave like an arm! Follow your heart! This wonderful sense of magic control is as satisfying as Alice's special bonus of helping to control the precision.
Is this the power of the silver level... He just feels like a child who has got many new toys. He is really excited.
"An expression of wanting to rebel." Alina slowly stretched her arms, feeling the muscles awakened by the movement.
