Chapter 721: Frozen Palace Prime Minister
After the buyer was confirmed, Leo directly spread his mental network over, preparing to check the people in the box. However, the moment his mental network approached the box, it was immediately dispersed by a powerful interference energy.
"Huh?" After receiving the feedback from the mental network, Leo had a trace of doubt on his face, because it was obvious that the interference energy in the box was not at the same level as the interference energy he had felt before.
In the past, the interference energy Leo encountered came from a very crude energy interference device. Although this device was crude, it could produce miraculous effects in this world and cause deviations in his mental network.
However, no matter how deviations occur, the mental network can still feed back some information to a greater or lesser extent, and as the psychic power increases, the mental network also becomes stronger, and the impact of the interfering energy has been weakened a lot.
But the interference energy in the box just now was extremely powerful, and it directly dispelled his mental network. It felt like it was specially prepared for psychic energy.
"Could it be..." This feeling made Leo suddenly think of a possibility, so he tried to use other powers in his body to replace the mental network, imitating a power similar to the mental network, and explored the box.
Although he still encountered some interference this time, the energy was not completely dissipated like the spiritual network. Instead, it penetrated into the box, but the information fed back was extremely blurry, almost as if it was nothing at all.
However, Leo has achieved the purpose of this attempt, because he already knows what is interfering with his energy.
Subparticle interference device, this is the name of that kind of energy interference device, its other name is personal anti-psyker device.
Powerful psykers can often subvert the tide of battle on the battlefield. Therefore, in order to deal with psykers of hostile civilizations, each cosmic civilization not only cultivates psykers of its own civilization, but also develops a large number of other weapons to deal with psykers.
The anti-psionic weapon of the capable person, and the sub-particle interference device is the most mature and powerful anti-psionic device among these anti-psionic weapons.
This psychic energy is not very big, about the size of a common silver coin in the vinylon world, and it is very convenient to use. You only need to stick the thing to any part of the body and pass the brain wave detection of the device to use this device.
In addition to solar energy, the main energy source of this device is bioenergy. The average individual holder can use it for a very long time without any charging.
Its function is also very simple, that is, it produces strong psychic interference within a certain range around the user's body, forming an anti-psionic energy field.
Leo had only heard of this device back then, but had never actually used it, because this device required the use of an extremely rare crystalline ore, so the output was very rare, and only the top figures in each civilization could afford it.
Although Leo has never used this device, he has seen the effects of its use. He once followed an important figure from the federal government who was protected by more than 20 combat teams to attend a meeting with the nearby Star Alliance. During the meeting
, encountered some psykers who came to disrupt the meeting. Among them was a fifth-level psyker who wanted to kill a controversial envoy of an alien civilization, and the location of that envoy happened to be right next to the Earth Federation, which in turn caused the earth to
The Federation has also become a fish in the pond.
However, when the psyker used his psionic skills to carry out indiscriminate attacks, suddenly all his psionic powers failed, and he became just like an ordinary person. Then he was killed by the alien envoy who had been prepared for it.
His men killed him on the spot.
At that time, Leo heard the important figures of the Earth Federation speak with great envy, mentioning that the alien envoy used a sub-particle interference device to make psykers lose their power. He also knew that this device was effective against those below level seven.
All psykers have miraculous effects.
"This is a bit troublesome!" After inferring that the other party may have and be able to use a sub-particle interference device, Leo couldn't help but frowned. There was no doubt that if he wanted to take back his coffin, he would definitely conflict with the other party, and the other party's
Interference devices will also disable one's own psychic powers.
However, although Leo felt a little troubled, he didn't appreciate it too much, because although his power was mainly psychic, he was not a pure psyker, and he still had a lot of power that he could use.
, even if spiritual energy is restricted, other energies can still function normally and powerful abilities can still be used.
At this time, Sylvia on the side also saw Leo's frowning action, but she didn't know that Leo was frowning because of the sub-particle interference device, but thought that Leo was a little worried about the ownership of the metal block.
So, she said in a comforting tone: "Don't worry, there are not many people in Moonlight City who are qualified to reach the third level. His identity will be found out soon."
"Well! I'll leave you with this matter." Leo nodded, but did not reveal what he had just discovered.
The auction then continued, and after showing the value of the first special item, the value of the items taken out by the vampires was no less than that of the relics of prehistoric civilization, ranging from ancient jewelry containing mysterious power to some powerful miracles.
objects, and even a piece of the physical remains of a god.
Even if this is just the physical remains of a fallen evil god, there are still a large number of people flocking to it.
Leo has no interest in the physical remains of the evil god. Having seen the remains of the god, he knows very well how dangerous this thing is. Any creature below the Omega-level advanced life form will be infected by its power and mutate. Maybe there are also people.
The chances of a lucky mutation being a benign mutation are slim.
Compared to the physical remains of the evil god, Leo was more interested in the container containing the physical remains of the evil god.
This container is somewhat like the urn used in Savile burials. It is slender and olive-shaped, with a small dome at the top and a conical shape at the top.
An ordinary object of this shape can only be placed horizontally on the table, but this container is different. No matter how it is placed horizontally, it will stand upright like a tumbler, with its conical bottom pushing against the tabletop.
Stand upright.
Others were just surprised by the upright phenomenon of the container and the physical remains of the evil god stored in the container, but Leo was more concerned about the patterns on the surface of the container, because he found that the patterns were a set of three-dimensional characters whose structure was similar to the seal on the outskirts of Miria.
The stone ball of the Eye of Truth is very similar, even the material is made of the same stone.
Leo, who discovered this situation, was almost certain that this container was made by the tower wizard, and more importantly, this container was very small and could be carried around, so that he could study the secrets of the combination of three-dimensional radicals at any time.
"Investigate his identity as well!" Leo, who was interested in this container, pointed to Sylvia the last buyer standing at the window of the wing and said after the auction ended.
"There is no need to investigate, I know who he is." Sylvia just glanced at the other person and gave the answer: "He is Leah Venestan's right-hand man, the palace minister of the Ice and Snow Kingdom, Count Crefao.
"
"Is he Kerry Fao?" Leo was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the majestic middle-aged man opposite who didn't care about his identity being leaked.
For ordinary people, Kerry Fao appears more as the queen's lover in their after-dinner conversations, but for those who understand the national policies and current affairs of the Ice and Snow Kingdom, Kerry Fao is definitely a great person.
Politicians and men of action.
Since the Snow Queen ascended the throne, she has appointed a total of three palace ministers.
The first palace minister was Lazio Farlan, the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, who fully supported the Queen's ascension to the throne. Although the Farlan family was the Grand Duke of Dailiat, they had the royal blood of Farlan in their blood, so they took Farlan as their surname.
Lazio Farlan is the seventh grand duke of this family, because he has supported the queen since she was at her weakest and supported the queen with the strength of the entire family. It can be said that the queen stepped on the shoulders of the Farlan family and ascended to the throne.
Therefore, after the queen ascended the throne, she immediately appointed Lazio Fran as the palace minister to assist the queen in handling all affairs of the country. It can be said that he is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
It's just that when Lazio Fran reached the peak of his power, his thoughts tended to be conservative, and he had a lot of conflicts with the queen, who had an open mind. Finally, three years later, the queen dismissed him as palace minister and dismissed him back to the Grand Duke's fiefdom. The whole of France
The family thus moved away from the political center of the Ice and Snow Kingdom and was completely marginalized.
The second palace minister is the queen's first lover. This person is a scholar named Modiadi. You can see his origin and status from the fact that he does not have a surname. The reason why he can become the palace minister is not only because of his lover.
Apart from this level of relationship, it is also because he has no background and is completely unconditionally obedient to the Queen and will not have any conflict with the Queen's ideas. Therefore, this period is a period when the Queen acts alone and is also called the Palaceless Period.
phase period.
However, the Snow Queen soon discovered the serious problems caused by not having a qualified palace prime minister. Because no one pointed out the shortcomings in the policies she implemented, these policies that were initially beneficial to the people turned into policies that were harmful to the people.
, caused a lot of complaints among the people, but Modiadi deliberately hid these complaints and reported good news but not bad news, causing turmoil in the political situation of the kingdom.
Fortunately, the Snow Queen found out in time and directly executed her first lover, and pushed some policy issues to Modiadi, thus quelling most of the public complaints.
After that, the Snow Queen found a third palace minister and a new lover, this is Kerry Fao.
The Fao family that Kerry Fao belongs to is a long-established noble family in the Ice and Snow Kingdom. They have been from the Ice and Snow Kingdom for generations and have marriage relationships with all the nobles in Dailiat. Therefore, almost all the nobles in the Ice and Snow Kingdom have a Fao family.
His bloodline, its influence is naturally self-evident.
However, the patriarch of the previous generation of the Fa'ao family took the wrong side in the fight for the throne of the Ice and Snow Kingdom. In addition, he had verbally humiliated the Ice and Snow Queen, so when the Queen ascended the throne, their family was severely suppressed.
If it weren't for their family's considerable influence in the aristocratic circle of the Ice and Snow Kingdom, there might be no Fa'ao family now.
It is precisely because of this that the previous generation of the patriarch of the Fao family became depressed and fell ill, and died in fear and grief. It was also under such circumstances that Kerry Fao became the patriarch of the Fao family.
After becoming the patriarch, Kerry Fao changed the Fao family's previous conservative approach, actively catered to some of the queen's policies, and cooperated with the implementation of some policies to please the queen.
This approach has indeed had an effect. Among the various policies implemented by the Queen, some policies affect the interests of the nobility, which makes the local nobility extremely uncooperative and the policy cannot be implemented. However, among all local policies, there is one
She is always able to implement policies thoroughly and achieve her goals perfectly. It is difficult for the Snow Queen not to notice this kind of political performance.
So after that, Kerry Fao was summoned by the queen to the palace and served as the palace minister's attendant, assisting Modiadi, who had not yet lost his life at the time, to handle government affairs.
While serving as a chamberlain, Kerry Fao had some feelings for the Queen, and became the queen's guest. When Modiadi was executed, Kerry Fao was also carried to the palace.
The position of the palace.
Everyone originally thought that Kerry Fao was also a Modiadi, but what they didn't expect was that he showed extraordinary talents after becoming the palace prime minister.
He neither resisted the Queen's decree like Lazio Farran, nor flattered the Queen like his predecessor. Instead, he seemed like a very qualified politician to assist the Queen in handling every decree. Before the decree was implemented, he not only pointed out the Queen's decree
We also found solutions to the loopholes and problems in the decree. During the implementation period, we personally went to various parts of the country to lobby local nobles for cooperation, confirm the implementation of the decree, etc.
It is no exaggeration to say that the decrees of the Ice and Snow Queen can be perfectly implemented, and the national power of the Ice and Snow Kingdom can be steadily improved. Kerry Fao's assistance can be said to account for eighty percent of the success, and the Ice and Snow Queen also knows this, and is not stingy with her efforts.
He praised him and called him an indispensable arm more than once.
The reason why Leo, who didn't care much about politics, knew about Kerry Fao was mainly because when he was chatting in Miria City, old man Rembrandt once mentioned the most outstanding person in the world.
A political figure, and Kerry Fao is considered by him to be one of the best politicians in the world of Velen.
When getting along with the old man Rembrandt, Leo could clearly feel that although the old man Rembrandt looked easy-going on the surface, he was actually an extremely proud person in his heart. There were very few people who could be looked down upon by him, but
Kerry Fao was the only one he praised like this, which also made Leo remember this person and his special identity.
"Why is he here?" Leo couldn't help but ask after seeing this big shot in the Ice and Snow Kingdom.
