Chapter 20: Visitation
In the next few days, Charles stayed in the manor honestly, concentrating on reading and studying every day, and the time for practicing martial arts was reduced a lot.
The terrible scene that occurred that day left the entire residents of Shining Gold Town in a coma, and it was not clear what had happened.
It was easy for the baron to believe his words, after all, the situation was very similar to the arrival of a meteorite, which was in a huge roar, shaking the mountains and shaking thousands of people unconscious.
At breakfast, family members gather around a large oval table.
Charles sat beside Baron Bjanno, and had rare time to eat together, and the two of them used their knives and forks in silence, and no one else dared to gasp for breath, only the slight clashing and dull chewing sounds could be heard.
He ate a tender and delicious steak and asked softly, "Father, why hasn't Sister Leah come back yet?" ”
Leah Mesterling is the eldest daughter of the family, she has been practicing martial arts with Marcus since she was a child, and she already has school-level strength.
It's a pity that half a month has passed, and there is still no news.
Baron Bjanno looked up at him, his face a little puzzled, and he didn't understand why this son, who had always disliked his sister Leah, suddenly asked about the other party's news.
He paused for a moment and replied slowly, "The number of rogues has increased, and they have taken refuge in the mountains and forests, and the army of Stormhaven has been collecting nearby, and it is expected that it will be a few days before the battle is resolved. ”
"You don't have to worry about this, after half a month, after completing the ceremony, you will go to participate in the entrance examination of the Imperial Royal Academy, are you confident?"
The baron looked at him with a serious gaze, which made him feel a sudden burst in his heart, and quickly nodded: "No problem, I feel that I have made great progress recently, and it will never be a problem to pass the assessment!" ”
Deal with the past first, and then whether you can participate in the assessment is another matter.
"Very well, this is about your future, once you can make enough connections in the academy, your future will not be limited to the small town of Shining Gold, or even Farnshire!" Bjanno wiped his mouth with a silver-gray handkerchief and got up to leave the restaurant.
Charles glanced at the crowd below, and also sped up to solve the meal in front of him.
Now the Mesterling family is sparsely populated, with only two descendants, him and Leah, and no branch peers, most of whom are a few years old or just in their early tens.
After Leah left, he was already the oldest in the family, and he was not interested in playing house games with those little kids, and spent more time fooling around with his three fox friends.
This also has the advantage of avoiding those bloody family infighting, so that he doesn't need to care about these things at all.
After returning to the study, Charles continued to study the basic knowledge that the uncle had given him, which was basically some common sense of the Spiritual Master, which happened to be what he lacked.
The modulator only completes the plot information, and as for all kinds of related knowledge, he needs to collect it little by little.
Knowledge is power, this sentence is used in this world, and it is vividly expressed in the life spirit master!
The more knowledge you have, the richer and deeper it is, and when you want to make a totem, you will be able to accurately see the development potential of the totem, so as to decide whether to spend energy and wealth to cultivate it.
Then there is the analysis of the relevant inheritance factors, as well as the construction of totems, etc., which require countless knowledge as the foundation.
Every life spirit master is a master of biology, and his knowledge is comparable to that of a biology expert in a previous life, and various studies have already developed to a very deep level.
In fact, it is completely possible to regard the inheritance factor as the DNA of the previous life, and use it to determine the various inheritance and development of living things......
By noon, Charles had made a random excuse to leave the manor, citing the excuse of visiting Uncle Marcus and learning martial arts from the apothecary uncle.
He now understands the specific situation of Niu Kelian, this powerful life spirit master disguised as an ordinary martial artist, has participated in many wars, and has killed countless enemies each time, and has made more great achievements than Marcus.
That's why Baron Byangno wanted to hire him as the head of the family guard, but unfortunately the other party refused, and only worked as a pharmacist in Shining Gold Town.
"Let me tell you Lao Niu, studying medicine can't save the empire, as long as war is the root of everything!"
As soon as Charles walked into the pharmacy, he heard Marcus's familiar loud voice, which made him feel a little funny.
This man is worthy of being a warmonger, and even when he is seriously wounded, he does not forget to induce others to fight.
In the previous terrible impact, fortunately Marcus dodged in time, so he was not affected and hung up, but the two guards were left with no bones.
What's even more strange is that with the advent of the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox projection, it actually erased Marcus's related memories, making him completely unable to remember what he had seen and heard before, but saving him some explanations.
"Don't talk nonsense, you can't save the empire, but if you provoke me, don't blame me for ignoring you."
The other party blocked him back with a word, and hurriedly flattered him: "Old Niu, you must show your real skills to cure me." I don't know why Lao Tzu was so unlucky, he was stoned by the gods, and his mother was almost stoned to death......"
Charles had a very strange face, and for the first time he found that Marcus, who had always been cold and domineering, would also talk so nagging non-stop. Could it be that when erasing his memory, he accidentally cut off a little more and played him badly?
"Hey, the little master is here again?" A smile appeared on Marcus's fierce face, but it looked even more frightening, like a murderer smiling at you.
"Uncle Marcus, are you feeling better?" Charles asked with a smile as he walked over to the bed.
Marcus was more than two meters tall, lying on a small hospital bed, looking a little aggrieved. He leaned against the wall, one arm was still bandaged, and the quilt was even thicker, and replied with a smile: "I'm worried about the little young master." I'll be able to recover in two days at most, and I'll continue to teach you martial arts when the time comes. ”
"Well, you can take care of your injuries." Charles was reassured.
For him now, it is useless to learn martial arts, after all, the defense of the guardian aura is too strong, and the mere mortal martial arts cannot break through this defense at all.
In addition, he is very satisfied with his current appearance, and he is a proper noble son in his previous life, I don't know how many young girls will be embraced. If you become a muscular maniac, you won't have this kind of treatment.
What he lacks now is all kinds of knowledge, as well as cultivating auxiliary totems, and it is difficult to cope with various situations with just one totem of fireflies.
You must know that the main totem is related to the life of the life spirit master, once it is fatally attacked, the life spirit master will also suffer heavy damage, and then the auxiliary totem is needed to act as cannon fodder.
"Rice cake, hurry up and come out and accompany the little master out for a walk." Niu Kelian, who was mixing the potion, stretched out his head and greeted loudly inside.
An impatient voice suddenly came from inside: "It's so annoying, it's coming soon!" ”
"Little master, work hard." Marcuston lowered his voice and winked at Charles, the image of a ruthless warrior in his mind had long since collapsed.
Charles was slightly embarrassed, and suddenly remembered his parents in his previous life, and it seemed that he was the same, and when he met a girl, he couldn't wait to let him marry, and even went up directly to ask for the contact information of the person.
Unfortunately, I don't know when I will be able to go back......
