With the assistance of three incarnations, John can practice and research with more than four times the original efficiency.
In fact, the increase in efficiency is more than four times that of John personally, because the three incarnations are blessed by the super brain of the crystal skull. A person's efficiency is at least twice to three times that of John's body, so it is said that it is a ten-fold increase in efficiency.
It is not an exaggeration.
In the past few years, John has not only almost exhausted the high-level resources of the Hydra branch mastered by Smith and conducted a lot of magic research and alchemy experiments, but also sorted out the inheritance system obtained by the Mage Holy Land, although these
The power of cultivation cannot be brought back to the main world, but the process of cultivation and learning and memory can be perfectly preserved, which will save him too much time.
After John had the confidence to return, even if he did not rely on the rewards of plane battles, he would be able to break through silver and achieve gold within one or two months, add a powerful man to Emsdan to take charge.
...
Time passes by in a blink of an eye.
It was almost twenty years since the head of state came to power, and it was only two months before the day when Germany kicked off the European battlefield of World War II in John's memory.
In fact, the German top leaders were ready to invade Poland, just waiting for the head of state to order that day.
On this day, Smith took John, Dr. Hagen and others, and only brought a few followers. The light car left Berlin from Jane and came to Albania in Eastern Europe.
This country on the Balkan Peninsula was once ruled by the Ottoman for five hundred years. It was only in modern times that it became independent with the collapse of the Ottomans. In 1928, it was reorganized into a kingdom.
In fact, behind this is the manipulation and support of the Hydra organization, and this country also has a branch of one of the nine Hydra heads.
These were introduced on the way Smith came. At the invitation there, Smith brought a group of Deli's men to visit.
With John's portal, they did not need to take a slow train for several days to reach Austria, and then they had to transfer from Austria to the Balkans.
After leaving the portal, the group got on the prepared carriage. Although the stability of cars is poor these days, a big shot like Smith who masters technology beyond the times actually has no shortage of transportation cars, but there are not many places yet.
Perfect transportation and facilities for car service are therefore not as suitable as horse-drawn carriages.
Looking at the scene of a wilderness and a large rural area near the capital of Albania, John couldn't help but sigh:
"This and Europe are simply two worlds..."
Smith also agreed:
"Compared with the economically developed and strong central, northwest, Europe, the mountainous grasslands in Eastern Europe are mostly in the feudal era, and it still maintains more than 80% of the feudal era. The industry is basically dominated by agriculture and animal husbandry. Even if there is industry, there are many
Mainly export resources.”
So when it comes to Eastern Europe, Europeans in other developed places subconsciously believe that it is synonymous with poverty.
Dr. Hagen said with a hatred:
"In fact, this is also related to the evil committed by the Ottoman Empire."
Everyone in the car understood what Hagen meant.
In the past few hundred years since the Middle Ages, the Ottomans invaded most of the land in Eastern Europe and implemented harsh oppression and rule here, making the Aegean area, which originally originated from the splendid ancient Greece and other civilizations, now become synonymous with barbarism and backwardness
, destroyed the inheritance of many ethnic and nationalities, and the inheritance of ancient Greek civilization was basically cruelly suppressed and destroyed by the Xingyue Cultists.
Hagen continued: "Otherwise, why is the one who studies the most ancient Greek civilizations not in Greece, but in the universities of several great powers!"
John also knew a little. He knew that the Greeks who had been re-liberated were actually determined to rebuild the Great Greek Empire. What he had no choice was national strength. He was powerless! The Balkans, the imperial meat grinder, had experienced the last world war.
It has been difficult for decades to recover.
The group talked and laughed, and the carriage stopped in front of a mountain castle in the suburbs of Albania's capital, and other entourage guards dismounted and called.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man who looked like a noble butler came in with two male servants and a carriage.
After closing the castle gate, the group walked out from inside, and the leaders and Smith met with each other.
"Melissa, it's been a long time since I saw you, you're still so radiant..."
The head of these people is a beautiful woman wearing a gorgeous European palace dress mainly in black. She looks about twenty-seven or eight, with both mature charm and thirty-six.
With a little bit of youthful youth, she looks a bit like Scarlett, who is famous for playing the widow, but this one has a figure of more than 1.7 meters, which is better than the widow who is less than 1.6 meters tall.
In short, this person's appearance is in Hollywood in John's previous life. Among the many actresses, he is definitely the one who can be ranked at the top. Not to mention the other person's temperament, he is a rare woman John has ever seen.
Comparable to it.
If so, it would be his aunt Helena, female detective Theresia, and Mrs. Helena, Franklin, who can compete.
It can be said that these people belong to the spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, each with their own strengths, and are all beauties in terms of temperament and appearance.
"John, you seem to be young, are you taking some potion that can rejuvenate yourself?"
This guy is obviously close to Smith, so he can call him by his name directly, and it is obvious that although Smith put on makeup, he still couldn't hide his youthful aura.
In front of his own people, Smith no longer pretended.
He smiled, reached out to take a hand towel handed over by his subordinates, cast a spell to create a ball of water, and then wet the hand towel and wiped it on his face.
The makeup on his face was wiped off immediately, and a young face that was completely different from Smith's mature face in his forties was exposed.
"Oh my God, this..."
When a woman named Melissa saw Smith's face change drastically, she looked like she was in her forties and in her twenties, she covered her mouth with her hands in disbelief.
Then he excitedly grabbed Smith's arm and asked:
"Tell me quickly, tell me how you did it. I am willing to exchange everything in my hand with you..."
Smith looked at his old friend's excited look with amusement, and said if he pointed:
"Do you remember the feather found in a Sumerian ruin?"
Melissa was stunned for a moment when she heard this, then remembered what she said:
"You mean the one with blood that is suspected to be divine blood?"
"That's right!"
"God, that's not true divine blood, right?"
Smith nodded:
"It's the real divine blood, but it has been used up by me. If there is a second drop, I can give it to you..."
The beautiful woman's expression kept changing when she heard this, and finally gritted her teeth and said:
"I really regret giving this thing to you for nothing. No, I must mobilize all my strength to find the second drop of divine blood to come back..."
Obviously, when the remains were excavated, there was also this beauty. In other words, the Ragnarok plan has always been a plan carried out by the entire Hydra organization, but the other eight head branches have basically been in the past few decades.
All gave up, but only Smith still insisted on it unwillingly.
In fact, this Madam Melissa didn't know that if the thing fell into her hands, she might not have the chance to take Divine Blood, because it was Smith who met John, not her.
