Chapter 1713: "Strengthening Manual"
"Your Highness's kindness, I will accept it." After Roland thanked him, he took the parchment scroll handed by Frank, and immediately sensed the rich potential fluctuations, his face was still calm in surprise, and he was not in a hurry to identify, so he calmly put it away, bowed to Frank for the last time, and turned around and walked out of the door.
Frank watched Roland go away, looking stunned.
From the moment Roland proposed his resignation, John Raul remained silent until Roland's figure disappeared into the "wind ladder", and he finally couldn't help but walk up to Frank and stop talking.
"Whatever you want, just say it." Frank said without looking back.
"Your Highness, Roland Khoras is a scheming man and a very dangerous figure for the Empire, for the sake of your interests, I have to be a despicable villain, please seize the opportunity and try to get rid of this person, otherwise it will be difficult for him to escape back to the Far East."
Frank gave him a faint look and didn't say anything.
……
Roland left the second floor of the Puai Palace, confirmed that no one was following or spying on him, and couldn't help but take out the "Upanishads" given by Frank to absorb his potential. A small book gave him 10 degrees of potential, and based on experience, Roland concluded that the book was worth as much as a quasi-legendary piece of equipment.
System Prompt: Discover the high-level magic artifact "Strengthening Manual" +5! Does it absorb the strange thing immediately?
Despite his mental preparations, Roland was overjoyed by the results.
"It's actually the top "Body Strengthening Manual", His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really generous!" After getting this book, Roland felt that he had not come to the Holy City in vain, and this trip was worth it!
This kind of Upanishads such as "Fitness Manual" is very special, and after reading, you can directly improve the basic attributes, and it can be divided into 5 levels according to the number of attribute points added, the minimum is +1, and Roland's book is +5, which is the most valuable of similar Upanishads below the legend.
Each person has six attributes: strength, constitution, agility, intelligence, perception, and charisma, and the Upanishads, which correspond to increased attributes, are also divided into six categories. After reading the "Strength Manual", the "Bone Strengthening Manual" improves the physical attribute, the "Dexterity Manual" increases the agility attribute, the "Meditation Scroll" increases the intelligence attribute, the "Proficiency Scroll" increases the perception attribute, and the last "Domination Scroll" adds the charisma attribute.
Among all the six attributes, Roland values the "charm" attribute the most, followed by "constitution" and "strength", and then the other three attributes. The "Strength Manual" given by Frank can increase the strength attribute, although it is not as good as the "Domination Scroll" that improves the charm attribute for him, but it is also very good.
Roland has always adhered to the principle of early consumption and early benefit for this kind of good thing that increases attributes, and it is of course the best to be able to immediately increase the power attribute by 5 points, but it is a pity that reading this kind of Upanishads written in magical words is quite time-consuming and laborious, and it takes at least 48 hours to read through it once, after which the Upanishads will turn into dust.
Roland didn't have time to concentrate on his studies now, so he put away the "Fitness Handbook", went downstairs to find Palatina, who was still waiting for him, and boarded the carriage together to return to the prince's palace.
Back at home, Sigmund and Hannah are enjoying afternoon tea. Seeing them coming back, he hurriedly got up to greet them. Mrs. Hannah beckoned Roland to tea, and asked him why he had been delayed for a while when the meeting had ended.
Roland guessed that this was what the prince and daughter wanted to inquire about, so he sat down and told him about the discussion he had discussed with Frank and "Red-Haired" John from beginning to end.
"Is His Highness Frank really determined to issue banknotes?" Sigmunt's face was solemn, "This is not a trivial matter! What can he do to the Lord? ”
"Frank can't be the master alone, but don't forget, now that Prime Minister Muller has also joined the camp of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Frank already has the strength to influence the decision-making of the cabinet, so why is it difficult to instruct Prime Minister Muller to formulate a monetary reform decree? It doesn't hurt the cabinet anyway. Palatina explained to her father.
"Banknotes...... Is it really reliable? Lady Hannah looked sad, "Why don't you stock up on more gold and silver before the new decree is issued?" ”
"Don't!" Sigmund hurriedly dissuaded, "In case it spreads out, it will become a typical example of using insider information for personal gain, I don't want to bear such an infamy!" ”
"Dad, you're really brainless......"
Palatine laughed and teased her father, then turned around and advised her mother not to worry too much. During her visit to the Far East, she paid special attention to the paper money in circulation in the world, and used the Far Eastern silver money to shop in the bazaar, and the vendors were happy to accept the silver money, and it was really convenient, so she was quite fond of paper money, and she was also optimistic about the currency reform planned by Frank.
Roland looked at this warm family, and his heart was sour. The words of admonition almost came to his lips, but in the end, he restrained himself with a strong will and did not say it. Watching a happy family unwittingly slide into the abyss of disaster, but unable to warn him, Roland felt deeply remorseful. Not to mention the fact that in the Holy City, in this huge country, there are countless families who are also unaware of the crisis......
Roland stood up suddenly, took a deep breath, barely suppressed the guilt in his heart, and asked the prince and his family to resign. Staying here, he feared that he wouldn't be able to resist revealing the truth.
"How...... Leaving now? Lady Hannah was stunned for a moment, and took Roland's hand to stay, "Stay a few more days, why rush back, as soon as you leave, our house will seem even more deserted." ”
Sigmund was able to understand Roland's emotions, first asked him if he could go tomorrow, and when he saw Roland's face was embarrassed, he patted him on the shoulder and said considerately: "The Holy City is not a peaceful place, I can rest assured if you go back as soon as possible, return to the Far East, remember to say hello to your father on my behalf." Palatina, go help Roland pack her bags. ”
"Don't bother, I have all my luggage with me, and I don't have anything to pack."
"So you're ready to leave at any time?" Palatina asked suddenly.
Roland sensed that she was in a bad mood, and smiled reluctantly, not daring to answer her words.
Paladina sent him out. The two walked side by side through the courtyard, neither of them made a sound, and the atmosphere was a little sentimental.
Outside the gate, Palatine stopped and looked up at Roland steadily.
"Tell me, why are you in a hurry to leave?" She could sense Roland's preoccupation, but she couldn't guess why he was worried.
Looking at Her Royal Highness's concerned face and blue eyes full of reluctance, Roland suddenly had an impulse to take her hand and take her back to the Far East, away from this dangerous city.
