Chapter 220: Agni Street
Duon asked Laura to go home first, and told the Marquis and Lady Solomon about this matter as it was, and left other things alone, after all, compared to other things, Gutierrez is not the bloodline of the Solomon family, and before this matter is resolved, other things can be postponed indefinitely, because it involves the inheritance of the family, and this matter must not be any little sloppy.
The question of succession for the House of Solomon...... Hehe, what about yourself?
Duang suddenly thought of this incident to himself.
The Council of Elders of the McNus Family has sent a message that in three days, there will be a special ceremony to officially appoint Duon as the next patriarch of the McNus Family, and Vic, who has always been a wolf's ambition, has been completely disheartened after being cleaned up by Duon, knowing that he has no hope of being a patriarch in his life, so he died down, went home, and has not gone out for several days.
The ritual of becoming the patriarch of the family...... What's this......
Duang thought it was interesting.
According to the normal process, the inauguration ceremony of the succession patriarch of the McNus family should be carried out in the ancestral house of the hometown, but now the situation is more special, Count McNus did not die of illness, but was assassinated to death, and there was no preparation in the family at all, and Duang could not return to the ancestral house in a short time, so for the first time in history, the inauguration ceremony of the new patriarch of the McNus family was to be held in the imperial capital.
When the time comes, all the guys in the family who have heads and faces will have to come, hehe, there are many people, Du Ang has only heard of the name, and he has not seen him until now.
Then, when the things in the family are done. It's a matter of the palace.
Now that Duon has become the patriarch of the McNus family, he will definitely inherit the title of earl and become the new Count of McNus, a ceremony that will be performed in the palace of the Bauhinia Empire.
Moreover, it is not just a matter of a title, after having a title, Duang will also be granted a position and officially enter the officialdom of the Bauhinia Empire. Although it is not yet known whether it will be a government or military position, it is certain. The next thing is definitely not going to be as easy as it is now.
All along, Duang's life can be described as a good one, no worries at all, practicing magic bubble girls, and researching this world that has crossed over. If you talk a little bit more about it, the time of the day has passed like this.
His father was a high-ranking nobleman of the Bauhinia Empire. A famous general in the army. He is one of the five important ministers of His Majesty the Emperor, and it can be said that he wants money and power, and he has no pressure in life.
But now, my father is gone, if I still want to continue this life. Then Duon will have to bear all this, and bear all the burden on his shoulders. Although his shoulders were still very immature and a little unstable, there was nothing he could do. He is now the only man in the family, and if he doesn't bear it, will he let his mother, the beautiful countess, bear it?
There is no doubt that it will definitely not work.
Office...... It should be a military position, right?
Duang was thinking wildly.
For a long time, the patriarch of the McNus family, according to tradition, held military positions in the empire and dealt with the army, most of them were the kind of generals with a fierce temperament and charged into battle, and a few ancestors were the kind of wise generals who were strategizing, and were specifically responsible for making plans.
But no matter what, they are all soldiers, and they are all generals of the Bauhinia Empire.
And this tradition is now passed on to Duon, and it should be no exception, right?
Although this matter will be decided by His Majesty Charlie XVI in the end, according to Du Ang's own thoughts, it should be a military position.
Where to start?
As a high-ranking nobleman and an earl of the empire, at the very least, he should be able to start as a team leader.
It would be more tragic if I were to start as a small soldier.
It's just that...... Even if you start as a team leader, what can you do?
Now that the situation between the Bauhinia Empire and the Byron Empire is unknown, maybe one day a fight will have to break out, and if you send yourself a task at that time, will you go or not?
Although I'm a magician, I've never served in the army, and it's okay in peacetime, but now? No, war can break out at any time, and when the time comes, maybe you will be unlucky and you will be directly platooned to the front line. There's no place for this TMD......
And in addition to that, there are a lot of bad things to consider.
In a few days, I will also go to the Bauhinia Empire Magic Association to hand over the letter written by Goodian to the president of the Magic Association.
To tell the truth, if there is nothing too important, Du Ang really doesn't want to go to the headquarters of the Bauhinia Empire Magic Association, Bland, the captain of the Wizard Law Enforcement Team, was killed by him Du Ang, and the black mage Du Lala, who is wanted by the Wizards Association, was hidden by him Du Ang, anyway, if one of these things is poked out, Du Ang will have to go around without eating.
The group of old monsters of the Wizards Association, let alone Du Ang, even if it is ten Du Ang and a hundred Du Ang tied together, it is not their opponent, if they can stay away from them, Du Ang would rather be as far away from them as possible, it is best to be as far away from them as possible, it is best to be as far away from them as possible, if you can smell each other and die without getting along, then it would be the best.
However, if you think so, you can't go.
Goodian said before that this letter is very important, and it must be handed over to the president of the Magic Association by hand, otherwise, there will be very serious consequences, and the one hundred and first level great magician said such a thing solemnly, if there are really any bad consequences, Du Ang can't afford it.
Therefore, even if he didn't want to go, the gate of the Bauhinia Empire's Magic Association, Du Ang had to pinch his nose and go inside.
Then, Duang had to find a way to study what Dirk's method of being able to travel freely between the two worlds was.
The box that went to him, and the key.
And also...... We have to find out who the designer of the trial illusion is.
And also...... The graveyard of the dead and the things in the sanctuary were all added together, and Duon felt that his head hurt.
And now, it's up to Doon to do something.
Well...... While there's still some time. Go get some raw materials, make bicycles, parachutes, and so on...... These things now have drawings, and the technology is not a problem, as long as there are materials, the finished product can be made.
To sell or not to sell, Du Ang hasn't thought about it yet, but at least make some for his own use.
Thinking about it, Duang decided to go to the famous black market in the imperial capital, Agni Street.
In that kind of place. You can often see some good things, whether it is the core of Warcraft, all kinds of rare raw materials, weapons, and even magic scrolls.
As long as there is money. You can pay the right price, so to speak. Basically, there is nothing that cannot be bought.
Agni Street is located in the southern part of the imperial capital. Near the city gate, it is one of the most famous streets in the entire imperial capital, and it is also the most famous black market, which can be called one of the most prosperous places in the imperial capital.
However, it's also a pretty strange place.
Fish and dragons are mixed, flies camp dogs. It's not too much to see anything here.
The street is no more than 500 meters long and wide enough for two horse-drawn carriages to go along, and it is full of people every day. As far as the eye can see, there are human heads everywhere.
When Duang arrived, it was already afternoon.
He is now wearing an ordinary dress, although it is not a noble costume, but the things that come out of the Earl McNuss Palace, no matter how you look at it, are much better than ordinary people, so now at a glance, Du Ang looks like a young master from a wealthy family, and there is no servant or guard around him, he just comes out to play.
"Boss, there's a fat sheep over there." On the side of the street, a guy with squinted eyes and looking around quietly stabbed the big man next to him.
This guy's name is Crewe, he is only ten years old this year, but he is a goldfinger who has been on Fire Street for many years, that is, a thief, because he is clever and clean when he starts his work, so he is also the number one among the gangsters on Fire Street.
"Which one?" The strong man who spoke was called Broken Tooth, no one knew his real name, he had only recently been on the Agni Street for a while, although he had not been here for a long time, but he quickly rose to the top because of his ruthlessness, and became one of the few big brothers here, and Crewe was the little brother who was adopted by him.
"That's it!" Crewe pointed at Duon.
Broken Tooth squinted his eyes, followed the direction of Crewe's finger, and when his gaze fell on Duon, he was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were completely round, and suddenly, he turned around and slapped Crewe's big mouth hard.
"He's a fat sheep? Damn, are you trying to kill us all? ”
The slap of the broken tooth was quite heavy, and half of Crewe's face quickly swollen like a freshly hatched bun, and blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth and fell to the ground dripping.
After all, Crewe is only a ten-year-old child, and his body is relatively thin, after receiving this slap, he was suddenly dizzy, his ears were buzzing, and tears suddenly flowed out, he was full of grievances, and he didn't dare to ask when he looked at the angry broken teeth, so he had to cry silently and choked.
"Boss, I don't understand!"
"Don't understand?"
Broken Tooth grabbed Crewe by the collar, picked him up, pointed at Duang and said, "You remember for me, that kid is a magician, do you understand, magician?" Damn, you dare to mess with him? How many guts have you grown? If he gets angry, none of us will survive, understand? ”
“……”
Hearing this, Crewe immediately stopped squeaking.
Enchanter...... For these little gangsters, magicians are nothing more than godlike beings, especially Crewe, who is just a pickpocket who steals for a living, and even if he lends him a few guts, he will not dare to provoke a magician.
Broken Tooth narrowed his eyes, and secretly thought: Why did this little magician come here?
Depend on! He still remembers the scene on Bowlan Street very clearly.
At that time, he and several brothers were by a stammering magician, and then at this time, the little magician appeared with a knight and the stuttering magician again...... At that time, Broken Tooth didn't run far, just hid next to him and watched, he had an extremely deep impression of Du Ang's appearance, like him, a person who can mess around in the lower echelons of the imperial capital and mix quite well, is very clear about who can and can't be messed with in the imperial capital.
He has a very high IQ.
Of course, if he didn't have a higher IQ, he wouldn't be able to compete with the original snakes on Fire Street in a short period of time, and there were many times when he couldn't solve the problem by relying only on his fists.
"Boss, I was wrong!" Crewe cried and said, "It's me who is ignorant, it's me who doesn't see clearly......"
Before he finished speaking, he was hit the back of the head again, and his broken teeth scolded while beating: "You admit that you have a fart?" Hurry up and inform our people, no matter who it is, don't make trouble for me, if this magician who doesn't open his eyes offended me and stabbed Lao Tzu's hornet's nest, then don't blame Lao Tzu for being ruthless, and cut him directly to dry! (To be continued......)
