On the carriage on the way back, Lin looked outside the carriage at the nightlife in the Imperial City of Neucken in the Karlsruhe Empire. Lin remained silent and thoughtful. In the eyes of others, it looked like the magician was dazzled by the sight outside the carriage.
I am fascinated by the fascinating world of nightlife, and I am thinking about how to join it.
If the imperial aristocratic official responsible for the reception was present, he would probably go to a familiar high-end tavern or brothel to have a lively reception. Unfortunately, the groom driving the car did not have such qualifications, so he could only obey orders and even speak.
No suggestions are allowed.
Although his position allowed him to have access to many secrets, because no nobles would treat their servants as 'human beings', they talked about some things in the carriage without hesitation. But they pretended to be mute and deaf.
The basic quality of wanting to live a long life. Otherwise, if the nobles feel the need to 'clear out', of course no one will care about the lives of their servants.
However, the wood elf who was riding in the carriage, the Blade Maid Miriam, did not have such superficial thoughts. She knew the complete plan from His Majesty the Ancient One, and the main planner was the magician in front of her.
Suppose that she approached this magician at first because of His Majesty's order and was asked to pay for it with her own body. At that time, she did not reject or agree with him. She just accepted the order of His Majesty World Tree in a dull manner. But the contact
After many times, she is now indeed curious about this magician.
I am curious about how the other party wants to open up the situation in the Karlsruhe Empire. I am also curious about whether all this will develop in the end, as the vision described by this magician will achieve the unprecedented ninth power.
In her long life, Miriam has seen and experienced all kinds of good and bad things. Although the teachings of the wood elves have made her content with being mediocre, who else can take part in such magnificent events?
Would you disagree?
Assuming that her heart was so willing to be mediocre, her skills would not have reached the heights they are today. Blade Maid, Bloody Sword Master, these are not titles that can be obtained just by nesting in the wood elf tribe. Her heart is
So there was no more fluctuation, just because she no longer encountered any stimulation that could make her heart agitate.
As for the other sword master, the white sword master William Greco, he was left in that home and provided with good food and drink.
The main purpose of Lin bringing William here was to serve as a stepping stone to obtain information about the Greco family. Now that he had completed his mission and his own family members intended to keep him, William himself had no objection, so of course Lin let it go.
Besides, someone estimates that their next affairs will be mainly verbal battles, and there is no place for the sword master to take action. Since the Greco family is competing with other families for the passage to Dragon Island, they will definitely need manpower.
For the people in the Greco family, although most of the children in the family were knocked down by the sword master and some were rescued, some of them are still wounded soldiers who cannot play. But so what? Can William be kept?
Come down, then the matter of seizing the channel will be settled. Those old rivals are evenly matched against themselves, which means that they will have to surrender against William, the sword master.
Some people are even thinking about whether to find a way to keep this white swordsman in the family forever. Fang Yan has made it clear that he will not seize power, and his strength is high. Is there a better thug than him? With this thought, everyone's mind
It's all hot.
Although no one said these words openly in front of Lin, he heard various hints in and out of words before someone left. Putting himself in his shoes, Lin believed that these were the proper meanings, and he never thought of taking that into account.
It's unusual to have a man tied to your side.
Lin had thought about the same thing at the beginning, dreaming that his tiger body would shake and the sword master would bow down and worship him as his master. However, the beating in reality made him understand that some things really cannot be forced. Just like men and women.
It's the same relationship. If you don't pierce that layer of paper, you can still be friends; if you guess the other person's intentions wrongly and pierce that layer of paper, you may not even be friends.
So after hinting a few times and not being able to tell whether William was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, Lin gave up his original idea. Besides, he wanted to keep William, the sword master, by his side. In fact, it was just a collection habit and had no other purpose.
Just like other time-traveling predecessors who arrived at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, they would definitely gather a bunch of famous generals and military advisors, and then happily fight the Three Kingdoms, torturing the Suns and Liu Cao. Since I never thought about becoming king and hegemony, I would just keep a powerful general by my side.
What?
Rely on him to protect yourself? Someone always feels that if his life has to be protected by an unreliable person like William Greco, then he will surely die long ago.
Since you don't intend to use the other person to death, then maintain the current relationship. When you need William's help, pay some price. With our friendship, the sword master is unlikely to resist taking action, so that's fine.
In the same situation, with an additional layer of family ties and blood connections, will William obediently become a knife in the hands of the Greco family? Lin is basically not optimistic about the plans of those old men.
Someone has now realized that William's power is, in fantasy terms, that he is in line with the Tao. This means that there is nothing wrong with him following a certain principle in doing things, but this Tao is definitely not a principle set up by someone, or a certain Tao.
In a social environment, there are conventional rules. If you try to tie someone up with what they say, you will end up in vain. He will only follow his own path.
As for the lascivious nightlife outside the carriage, belonging to Neuquén Imperial City, what is it in the eyes of a time traveler? Besides, before I time travel, I was not forced to stay at home because I was unpopular. This means that my interest is not here, how could I be in this place?
After traveling to a different world on the magic side, will you become an expert in drinking and love?
If you can't refuse social activities, it's okay to go to that kind of place as a last resort. Instead of running there to find entertainment, it's better to give a red and white machine and a TV, and a can of fat house happy water, and a certain time traveler will be happier!
Amidst the people's disdain for the medieval cultural level of the world, Lin and Miriam returned to the Guest House. During the dinner part, they stayed in the Guest House to follow the Temple of the Gold Coin Goddess. The elves who came back were already in the guest house.
The matter was resolved under the hospitality of the officials of the Karlsruhe Empire. Lin and Miriam were entertained by the Greco family and also had dinner.
The two parties met and were about to exchange the information they had obtained, when the empire sent another envoy to ask for a meeting with the leader of the goddess group.
Lin took out his newly made pocket watch and took a look at the time. Although Midi did not have working hours regulations such as commuting hours and the latest time for overtime work, it was so late that those noble men were not lying on their wives' beds.
Just lying on the mistress's bed. In this era of fantasy, there is no such thing as work that requires working three shifts or forgetting to eat and sleep to complete.
However, the imperial envoys could not be ignored. Lin first asked the waiter at the guesthouse to reply, and after tidying up his appearance, he went out to welcome them.
The person sent by the Karlsruhe Empire was a tall and handsome nobleman, but there was a gloomy look in his brow.
The navy blue military uniform perfectly matched his tall figure. The silver rapier at his waist, knee-length calfskin riding boots, and the brightly polished copper buckle on his belt all set off his unique battlefield temperament.
The one-shoulder cape on the left shoulder adds a bit of personal characteristics and unruly spirit to the military's rigor.
Especially the use of one-shoulder cape makes someone’s eyes brighten.
Dressed in a suit, without the mark of being a magician, it is too easy to be regarded as an insignificant person. Although he has gained the identity of a magician, he is still insignificant in the eyes of many people. But he has also changed from an ant that will die at a pinch to one that must be careful about being stung.
Scorpion, at least he has more respect.
It is also possible to wear a small magician's exclusive shawl on a suit. But if you get rid of the original form, add a one-shoulder cape, tie a gold tassel to the right shoulder, and get an epaulette to buckle it, it will look like a military uniform.
It's also very good. As for whether others will recognize it or not, I don't care. Anyway, the suit is special and strange enough in the Lost Land.
In addition to clothing, there are also several key points to attract someone's attention.
Of course, the person wearing a military uniform had a military identity. Before arriving, Lin had already entered the various badge information he could collect into his database, and the identity of the person in front of him happened to be identifiable to him.
The ourotail flying dragon on the one-shoulder cloak represents that he belongs to the ace dragoon regiment of the Karlsruhe Empire. Under the flying dragon is a three-star sword and shield, which is the mark of the regiment commander! And on the family coat of arms, the most conspicuous one is Mo
There is a small crown at the top, which means that he is a close minister of the emperor and has royal blood, but it is just a long time ago.
The nobleman in military uniform was different from the usual etiquette. After saluting, he said directly: "Long time no see, Your Excellency, the Great Magician Tripwood. I am Baron Mangadu. We have met in Your Excellency's Tower of the Great Sage. I don't know about you.
Do you still remember the group of adventurers who originally bought the ship-cutting sword and the repeating crossbow from you?"
Baron Mangadu! I do have an impression of this man, but this is the first time I know his name. Lin said: "Ah, of course I remember you. It's a pleasure to meet you. Now that you have been promoted, I am really gratified."
The person who was praised did not show any aristocratic vanity, but said humbly: "It is all thanks to the magic weapon invented by your Excellency that you can achieve such achievements and status."
After hearing this, someone really wanted to calculate a fee with the other party regarding the patent issue. Countless people have copied the weapons he designed and made them look impressive. Should he be given some licensing fees?
ah.
The problem is that Midi does not have this concept...
When it comes to the issue of patent rights and licensing fees, currently only the Technology Guild of the Holy City of Estali has clear regulations on these two items. And everyone will abide by them, not really respecting patents, so they are willing to pay for licensing
The cost. But it depends on the technical guild’s reputation, so it is willing to comply with the regulations.
It is said that in places outside the Holy City, people have already imitated the products produced by the Technology Guild. But there is nothing we can do about it. Some things have no technical threshold and are just concepts that can be solved once they are broken. However, in places too far away from the Holy City, technology
If the guild's genuine goods cannot be sold, then there is no demand in the market. If there is demand, there will naturally be supply. This is the law of the market.
Let's talk about quarreling with an empire. If you use my ship-cutting knife to invent and ask for money, aren't you afraid that they will bring out a legion and come to the door with the ship-cutting knife?
