Throne of Magical Arcana

Suddenly encountering this kind of thing, Lucien ’s hidden malicious factor almost broke out, and almost shouted to serve the people as an answer. Fortunately, he restrained himself in time. He bent slightly and lifted Polk up, his mouth gently said: "This is Everyone with conscience should do it. "

The coachman in the Kingdom of Holm would do such a dramatic thing. Is it because of the popular opera here?

Polk doesn't have a poet's cell, and the words "thank you", "thank you", "hope", "survival", "farmer", "harvest harvest" and so on are repeated. After he repeated the narrative several times, he finally recovered and was in a hurry Road: "Mr. Evans, please get on the carriage, I'm sorry to delay your time."

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about us." Lucian looked around at random, and found that many passengers on and off the train were watching here curiously, and did not understand why Polk would do something like church worship, confession, or officially visit the pope, King's etiquette, is it from which country that the king secretly visits by magic steam train?

Led by Polk, Lucien and Arthur boarded the carriage with the royal fuchsia badge, and Arthur's guards scattered around.

"This country mud leg really has never seen the world. For the sake of a bumper harvest, this kind of etiquette is practiced for unqualified people. It ignores the etiquette and loses the face of the royal family!" Arthur thought a little angrily, and then smiled. By this matter, he whispered a compliment to Lucian, "Fortunately, there are few ordinary people who dare to get close in the platform of the six-pointed star, otherwise someone will see him doing such courtesy to Evans, and he will be put in prison. The harvest is really the greatest expectation of the farmers. Evans, you brought them a harvest, it means to become the harvest angel in their minds. "

Lucien looked at the board that partitioned the carriage and the coachman like a perspective, and smiled: "According to some historical documents, after the creation of the Truth Church, the gods that appeared immediately after humans have death and the sun. , The moon, life, and harvest (hunting), and then slowly evolved more and more different gods, and now there are only a dozen countries in the northwest of the dark mountains. "

Human worship of the gods originated in the ignorance period, but before the magicians occupied the ruin because of the harsh environment full of horrible creatures, except for legends, only a small number of mural-style records have passed down, and at the same time, humans are also in The lower and middle levels of the food chain didn't rise until some people with strong mental powers slowly figured out the ability to cast spells, imitating the patterns and structures of magic creatures.

For many years after that, there were no traces of gods and churches in the magic empire. If you want to do similar research, you have to attack other intelligent races or explore alien space.

When the Church of Truth came to the surface, there were also churches that believed in other gods. They teamed up to defeat the magic empire, but they were wiped out by the growing Church of Truth. Only part of the kingdom in the northwest of the dark mountains escaped Strike, coexist with subtle relationships with other ethnic countries.

Hearing Lucian talking about this and describing the gods with "richness", Arthur was afraid to intervene.Although he communicated with the magician in a fair and honest way, and after the life-giving theory was revised, he had great doubts on the church and the faith was shaken again, but he still had a lot of awe for the education of the God of Truth from an early age. .

Lucien noticed his expression, and casually shifted the topic to the Minerals and Harvest Company. The atmosphere between the two sides was harmonious and the conversation was very happy.

…………

The place for the dinner party was a private villa on the Verosa River in Renta City, facing a finely-colored gold, like a river of light, backed by a natural garden with flowers, and the scenery was beautiful.

Inside the villa, Lucien once again saw Natasha's uncle Prince Patrick, who was a little bit older and more thin than a year ago. Unlike a middle-aged and powerful man, he seemed to be drooping.

"Welcome back, Evans, you are a lot earlier than I expected." Patrick carried a glass of red wine and hid under the protection of several attendants on the balcony, blowing the cool breeze from the river. "I always wanted to be like you all over the mainland Traveling, traveling to different places, enjoying different customs, but unfortunately my body does n’t allow me to do this. By the way, how is my dear niece now? Are you still having a good time? Did you grow taller again? "

Lucien replied with a smile: "His Royal Highness, Natasha, she has already passed a long age, but slowly came out of the previous shadow."

After a casual chat about the atmosphere about Natasha, Alto, and travel, Patrick patted Lucian on the shoulder: "Evens, come, before the dinner starts, I will introduce you a few friends . "

He is in a good state of mind today and does not cough as often as in the past.

Taking Lucian through the banquet hall, Prince Patrick nodded to several nobles, then entered a lounge, followed by three well-dressed nobles and a middle-aged man wearing a black magic robe Men.

"This is Lord Chancellor of the Kingdom's Chancellor of the Sea." Patrick did not point to the old man in a white wig with a pair of sharp blue eyes.

"This is Russell, Duke of Wolfsburg, and this is James, Duke of Pefoss. They are all members of the noble council."

Both Wolfsburg and Pefoss are relatively bustling counties of the Kingdom of Holm. The two Dukes sitting on the side of the town seem to be in their prime, one with blond semi-long hair, handsome and handsome, and one with a vicious look. At the same time, he shaved himself, but according to Lucien's knowledge, in fact, they are not young, and they still maintain their youthful appearance because of the strength of the Sky Knight.

Finally, Patrick pointed at the dark-haired and black-eyed magician with a faint smile: "He is the Viscount Harrison of the Royal Demon Court of Holm, he is also a member of the House of Wizards, a member of the noble council, and is famous. Illusionist, alchemist, Lucien, you should have heard of it? "

Lucian gently jawed her head, indicating that she had heard of it.According to the private agreement between the church and the nobles, in the case of another heir, the magician cannot inherit the title and at most become a member of the parliament at all levels, and because the "other heir" covers a very wide range, many distant members of the blood relationship are sparse All are qualified, so basically no magician can inherit his own knighthood. At most, he becomes a noble and then learns magic. Only a few lucky people can inherit the knighthood as a magician by chance, such as the Harry in front of him. Viscount Mori.

What he envied the magicians even more was that when he inherited the title, he was only a magician of the fifth ring. As a result, with the rich property of the Viscount and his own ability, he was promoted to a higher rank within fifteen years.

However, Lucian heard that he was due to another thing. He actually refused to join the elemental will, but became a high-level house of the wizard. This is an incredible thing for the people of Holm Royal Demon Court. Things, it looks like he likes illusions better than alchemy.

After introducing several nobles, Prince Patrick coughed a few times and smiled at them: "I think you should guess who he is. Let us welcome the youngest winner of the Holm Crown Award, the talented arcanist, Mr. Lucian Evans, the magician. "

The bald headed Duke of James showed a friendly smile to Lucian with interest, while the other three nobles maintained their unique reservedness, but only slightly jaws.

"Mr. Evans, I admire Arthur. He actually won the cooperation with you. It is a pity that Jindi La is like a sack of quintal." Duke James said bluntly, "I do n’t know what else you have recently. Research? I think we can cooperate well. "

"I'm sorry, Duke James, I just finished my mission and returned to Allinge. I haven't done any new research yet." Lucien naturally wouldn't talk shallowly about the first meeting.

James didn't mind, he said with a smile: "I hope there is a chance to cooperate. By the way, I recently tried a new product with Harrison, are you interested in joining?"

"What is it?" Before Lucian replied, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, like Earl Haisong, smelled like a bloody shark and spoke with interest.

Harrison smiled with a red wine glass: "The electromagnetic communication technology that dominates your storm is a very good thing. It allows two people to talk directly at a long distance. Although it is easy to be interfered, there will be noise when the distance is far, but it is enough It is usually used and much cheaper than teleport! "

"You think about it. When you hunt in the forest, you can share the joy with your friends in the city for the first time. What a wonderful thing it is, not to mention the application in contact and consultation. In a shorter time, more Quick response means greater advantage. "

He is not as gloomy as most illusions, mentioning that money and products are radiant.

"But it is a level 5 magic item, and few people can afford it." Duke Russell shook his head, not very optimistic about their prospects. In Holm, there are many magic items, because of the price, most of them Nobles can only choose what is urgently needed or necessary.

"Of course. So we are trying to simplify, such as replacing the constant magic array with a magic array that stores current energy. In this way, although the time of use becomes limited, the price will drop a lot, and the magic council will convert the power of the river into electricity. The magic towers are built more and more, as long as they find a way to introduce them into our homes, they can easily restore the energy of the items. Now I only worry about one problem, no matter how, this is also the magic of the five rings, and the price is cheaper even if it is lowered. Not going anywhere, I am trying to improve it. "

"If you can succeed, you can also bypass some of the exclusive rights that the storm dominates over this magic, reducing a lot of costs."

Harrison was a little distressed, he was not good at electromagnetic magic, so he turned to Lucien, "Our genius children, what do you think of this? Have you simplified the idea of ​​this magic?"

"Not for the time being." Lucien once tried to simplify, but after reducing the magic of the fifth ring to the level of the second ring, it would either become a "walkie talkie" within a few hundred meters or a "radio telegraph". .

For the first time, several nobles did not expect Lucien to make any comments. This may be related to the final magic item, which is naked money!

After discussing for a while, the topic shifted to the recent affairs in the kingdom. Lucian listened a little boredly while they criticized the Minister of the Interior for being too procrastinating and accused the chairman of the aristocratic parliament for being a thorough conservative. And viciously guessed that he was too old to walk to the end of his life, so he had to hug the thighs of the church and hoped to go to Heaven Mountain after his death.

"Isn't it boring?" Harrison walked up to Lucien with his glass. "But listening more is not a bad thing. It can at least help us distinguish who can win and who must be suppressed. This circle is considered to be in the kingdom. Representatives of the enlightened faction. "

Lucien sipped the "sky blue" and gently smiled: "It's just a relaxing rest to learn magic."

"Yes, very suffocating young people, no wonder they can get the Holm Crown Award at a young age. After a while, I will show you some more high-level magicians, which will be on your magic road in the future. It ’s helpful to move forward. "Harrison saw Patrick personally introduce Lucien, knowing that he was a pro-noble faction within the Magic Council and had a close relationship with the prince, so he appropriately expressed his goodwill.

Lucien smiled indispensably: "Thank you Viscount for your kindness."

The topic of the two gradually turned to magic, and talking about it, Harrison mentioned Isabella ’s paper. It seems that the arcanist who reviewed the paper and let it pass leaked the news, so that Many magicians knew about this before the journal was published.

"This is a completely superficial understanding. She only saw the surface reaction of the illusion on the human body, but she forgot what the alchemical-like substance was secreted." Harrison explained her point of view to Lucien with excitement and indignation. "Heart and soul, this is the deep foundation of illusion! The human heart is changeable and difficult to speculate. No matter how advanced the study of arcane research is, it is impossible to fully analyze psychological activities. Only illusion can use them!"
