Brendan looks to be about 30 or 40 years old. He has the appearance of a charming uncle, but his strength is very average.
Lando looked directly past Brendan and looked at the two people behind him, one middle-aged and one young. The middle-aged man wore a white robe and had a faint bookish temperament. The young man wore a gray robe and his eyes were full of spirituality. They looked very...
Smart look.
Both of them are condensed with elemental aura.
Is this the spell caster in this world? Like a mage. It seems that Brendan is not as brainless as he thought!
Lando is very interested in the spellcasters in this world because he discovered that there is a magic network in this world. Of course, this magic network is not that magic network. The magic network in this world should be specially made by the Arcane Empire and is integrated into the world.
It is a kind of rule in itself, rather than like the magic network in ancient times, it is more like an artifact that can be controlled by gods.
Presumably, the empire did this because it did not want the forerunners to have too much advantage. Otherwise, whoever becomes a god first and has the right to use the magic network can do whatever they want? There will be no way for others to survive.
Lando is very interested in the caster professions developed under this magic network system. In the future, his floating city will definitely have its own magic network. These professions are of great reference value to him.
But now is not the time for research, let’s complete the plan first.
The fog spread, and the three people in the room suddenly looked blank.
Suddenly, the middle-aged man in white robes flashed with light one after another, and various protective magics such as magic protection, stance deflection, fire element resistance, etc. appeared on him, until a special magical mechanical mind appeared.
The confusion in the middle-aged man's eyes suddenly disappeared, replaced by coldness and concentration.
Lando watched the whole process with great interest. This should be some kind of triggered magic chain.
Although the middle-aged man in white robe is now affected by the mechanical mind, he can't help but feel despair. The aura of the young man in front of him suppresses him, and he can't even think of escaping. He regrets that he accidentally used chain protection
A mechanical mind was added to the game. The young man in front of him obviously wanted to do something to Earl Brendan. It would be okay if he had been confused from beginning to end. He might still be alive. However, he finally woke up. This is not
Are you obviously asking the other party to kill people and silence them?!
Lando watched in amusement as the white-robed middle-aged man's face changed from expressionless to gradually desperate. It was quite interesting.
Ignoring the middle-aged man in white robe, Lando walked up to Earl Brendan, stretched out his hand slightly, and the little glass appeared in his palm. Lando directly inserted the little glass into Brendan's body.
This is one of the tips for using Xiao Liuli developed by Lando, because the latter itself has the ability to accompany. After it completes the companionship, it can use the heart phase space to completely erode the host through the accompanying mind connection, and replace it perfectly. Compared with
For hypnosis or other confusing magic, this kind of erosion and change in the mind is almost impossible to detect and discover, so it is very easy to use.
It only took a moment for 'Brendan' to wake up, but at this time the other party was already Xiao Liuli wearing 'Brendan's' skin.
Although Xiao Liuli has just been born and is still very naive and ignorant, after using this method, she can get all the memory and personality of the host. Just like its crystal-like body, it perfectly reflects everything and does not let the other party's memory slip away.
and personality have an impact on oneself.
'Brendan' moved his hands and feet, then nodded to Lando and went out to do his own thing.
Lando turned his attention back to the middle-aged man in white robe. At this time, the man's back was completely soaked. He felt that after seeing such a secret, there was no reason to live this time. He wanted to say something harshly, but
After seeing Lando's gaze, all courage disappeared instantly, and his body subconsciously became a little shorter.
"name?"
The middle-aged man in white robe was attracted by the sound while he was thinking wildly, but his confused thinking for a moment did not understand the meaning of the young man in front of him.
Lando asked again impatiently: "What's your name?"
"Lasse, Lasse Reina! Sir, I am a high-level magician affiliated with the Ring of Nature. This time I came to Earl Brendan's house purely as a guest. I am not familiar with him.
"My lord!" Lasse said hurriedly.
Lando ignored the other party's excuse and asked with interest: "What is the Ring of Nature?"
Lasse paused and said quickly: "The Ring of Nature is one of the strongest magic organizations in Gondor. It has three legendary magicians and more than a dozen senior magicians. Moreover, we also have a close relationship with the tree spirits of the Eternal Forest.
Make friends with the druids, sir, you see..."
"Oh, so strong!" Lando sighed.
"Hehe, it's okay, that's okay!" Russell said with a smile.
"Since you are so strong, I can't let you go back. What if you bring someone back to take revenge on me?" Lando said deliberately.
Russell's smiling face suddenly distorted, and he was stunned and speechless.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Do you want to live?" Lando said.
Russell nodded quickly like a chicken sucking rice.
"How about you work for me and I'll set you free after five years?" Lando put forward his conditions.
Russel hesitated for a moment, then immediately said: "It is my honor to serve you!"
At this time, he just wants to save his life. He will agree to any conditions first. As for the future...
"Very good, take this." Lando took out a small pill, which was actually a small golem made of mind space materials.
Russell's face turned ugly when he heard Lando's words, but under Lando's gaze, he still had to bite the bullet and take the pill. The pill melted in his mouth and turned into spiritual power that spread to Russell's spirit.
Among other things, this made his face even more ugly.
Lando snapped his fingers, and Russell fell to the ground in severe pain as if struck by lightning. The mental pain even gave him the urge to die immediately.
After a while, the pain disappeared, and Lando said calmly: "You are a smart person. You probably don't want to try it a second time. You can also try to take it out yourself, but you will be punished if you fail. I will explain it later."
If you do something, it doesn't matter if you fail, but if you don't do it carefully, you will be punished. Each punishment will be twice the time of the last time. If you do well, I will reward you. It will not be difficult for you to become a legend.
, I will help you get rid of it in five years and give you your freedom, what else do you want to ask?"
Russell endured the severe mental pain and had a hard time listening to Lando's words. He had no time to think about other things and dared to ask questions. He quickly shook his head and said it was okay.
"Very good. From today on, you will stay with Brendan to protect his safety. Do you understand?"
With Xiao Liuli's strength, she naturally doesn't need protection, but in order not to expose her identity, 'Brendan' does.
"Yes, sir." Russell's voice shocked even himself, it was hoarse as if he had poured sand into his throat.
Lando nodded with satisfaction, turned around and went out, thinking that Xiao Liuli had already arranged everything for him, including his residence.
Russell slowly got up from the ground and sat down on the chair tremblingly, his heart full of bitterness.
"Teacher, what's wrong with you? Where are Earl Brendan and his guests?" came a young voice.
Russell adjusted his mood and said, "They have left."
It's better not to let your apprentices know about this kind of thing. It's a kind of protection for both parties.
"Oh." The young man in gray robe was a little confused.
"Send a letter to the Nature Circle, saying that something happened here and we won't be going back for the time being." Russell said to his apprentice.
"Ah! Teacher, haven't we finished our work here? Is there anything else left?" the young man in gray robe asked puzzledly.
Russell made a serious face: "Go if I tell you to. Why are you asking so many questions?"
"Yes." The young man in gray robe was scolded and did not dare to say more, so he went down to write a letter.
After the young man in gray robe left, Lasse smiled bitterly and said to himself: "Yes, we have done all our things, why do we have to stay? Isn't the natural circle good? It's better now, and I will be the same."
Come on in!"
…………
Three days later, the entire upper level of the Far Sail Port was boiling. The reason was that one of the permanent members of the Far Sail Parliament, Earl Brendan, who was extremely influential in the East, held a grand banquet in honor of his former adventure partner who had just arrived.
Lando, the legendary strong man who returned from the Eastern Land, comes to wash away the dust.
The entire Far Sail Port was discussing who this Lando was.
Some people say that he was a high-level powerhouse ten years ago. He went to the East in pursuit of a stronger career path, overcame obstacles along the way, and finally became a legend, and then returned to his hometown in glory.
Some people also say that Lando went to the Eastern Lands in pursuit of immortality. After all, the legend that monks can prolong life has always been spread in Gondor.
Others talked about the adventures of Lando and Earl Brendan when they were young. They went deep into the jungle to find missing hunters, climbed up snowy mountains to find legendary wild men, killed swamp monsters that harassed small towns, and even blocked an army that tried to attack the city.
Crazy dragon.
Messages were flying all over the place for a while, and everyone spoke with confidence, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
The common people used all this as a topic of conversation, and the nobles were doubtful. However, due to the face of Earl Brendan and the suspected legendary strongman, no one stood up to question it.
Soon, the banquet time came, and numerous upper-class nobles and famous businessmen from Yuanjing Port came. Regardless of whether Lando's deeds were true or false, they would not miss this good opportunity for the upper-class people to communicate.
While they were drinking and drinking, Earl Brendan and Lando appeared at the banquet together. Immediately, many big shots from Sail Port surrounded the two people and formed a small circle.
Lando had received an orthodox aristocratic education, and coupled with his own temperament, the surrounding nobles' eyes lit up, and they were naturally more convinced of this apparently young Lando.
"Lando... Sir, I heard that you and Earl Brendan had adventures together when you were young. Why do you seem a bit..." Although the words were not finished, the meaning was expressed in place. This is what most people are asking.
.
Lando took a sip of wine, smiled slightly and said: "I traveled to the Eastern Earth, where I saw a world different from the Middle Earth. There is a profession called monks there. They have the ability to rejuvenate their youth. I am fortunate to follow
A certain master studied for a period of time and therefore also mastered this ability."
"Return to youth!?" Lando's words caused everyone around him to be in an uproar for a moment. They all looked at Lando with envy, but the latter didn't take it seriously either.
"Lord Lando, can you tell us about the situation in Dongtu?" another voice asked.
"Eastern Earth, it is ruled by a huge empire, the people are warm and hospitable, and there are forces formed by sects one after another..."
Lando actually didn't know what the Eastern Land of this world was like, and he was just making random nonsense based on the legends he had collected and adding his imagination. But everyone saw that he was sure of what he said, and none of them actually went there.
After crossing the Eastern Land, most people still choose to believe.
Just when Lando was talking about (Editor)'s rise, a voice interrupted him at an inappropriate time, and he stopped talking. After all, he had said enough. If he continues to talk, I am afraid that every temple has
He was about to reveal the 'secret' of suppressing a monster.
"Eastern land? Empire? Sect?! Heh, I think it's all nonsense. You couldn't make it up, right?!"
Huh?! Who is so powerful? He can see through my disguise at a glance!
The voice was a bit abrupt, but many people immediately recognized the owner of the voice.
Viscount Victor Tran, one of the three major viscount families in the East and a member of the Yuan Sail Council, has a hostile relationship with Brendan's Custer family. The reason for the hostility is simple. The Custer family is currently
The Earl family is on the decline, while the Tran family where Viktor Tran belongs is the viscount family on the rise.
If the Tran family wants to take a further step forward in the Eastern Territory, where their power has already stabilized, they must find someone to take action.
The strongest Marquis Pierce family need not think about it. If they dare to use their claws, they are seeking death. If they target the two families below who are also viscounts, no matter which one the Tran family deals with, the two families will choose to unite. This has been verified.
, so his target can only be the Earl family, and compared to the Earl Vieira family, which is at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period, the Custer family is undoubtedly the best target.
What the Tran family only wants is to get enough benefits to be promoted to earl, and the rest can be divided. It is precisely because of this understanding that the other two viscount families and the Earl of Vieira family chose to be neutral in this matter, while Pierce
The Marquis family will not pay attention to these trivial matters.
Today, Victor happened to be in Sailport for business and heard the news that Earl Brendan was holding a banquet for an adventurer who suddenly appeared. With the intention of not making things easier for the enemy, he came uninvited. If
It's best if you can disrupt the banquet. Even if you can't, you should at least test out the true depth of this Lando to see if he is really a legendary powerhouse. If not, that's fine, but if he is really a legend, the family's strategy must be
Made some adjustments.
