"When Ji'er was at home, she often talked to us about her adventures in the Frosty Mountains. You're the first young man who can get her to talk about sex, I thought ...... But it seems that I have misunderstood something. Lady Veronka finally understood, and didn't worry about his wife's problems anymore.

"Count Hyven, since neither you nor your sister have any interest in the matter of marriage, let us leave it for now. However, the communication between our two families should continue to deepen, what do you think? ”

"I'm not against that." Gordon shrugged.

Veronka added: "Next month, Changxia Province will hold a grand martial arts competition. Among them, there are four events: horse marksmanship, ten-person team battle, two-person cooperation, and single competition. Miss Freeman attended. Of course, as a countess and an angel of the battlefield, she will naturally not participate in person, but will attend as a distinguished guest. I think even the most upright knights and the most passionate warriors would be glad to see the beautiful Miss Sheona appear in the arena. ”

After a pause, Veronka added, "In addition, there are some famous warriors and sword masters who will also participate in the tournament as guests. ”

"I think my sister should be very interested in this martial arts competition." Gordon said.

He knew that since his sister had used the sword "Platinum Light" in the imperial capital once, she had fallen into an embarrassing state of both understanding and bottleneck.

In a remote place like the Haiwen Peninsula, she can only ponder behind closed doors, and it is difficult to gain anything. Since there is a grand martial arts competition in Changxia Province, then take this opportunity to not only observe the actual battle, but also communicate with those master-level swordsmen who have been famous for a long time, maybe there will be a big harvest.

"In addition to inviting Sheona to the tournament, we in the Phoenix family have also decided to keep Knight Sigrid at Seacliff Castle. Let her serve as the liaison between the Freeman family and the Phoenix family. Veronka added.

Between countries, it is necessary to set up embassies for exchanges. Between nobles and nobles, liaison people are often sent to stay with each other to facilitate communication.

However, Sigrid is a good hand at slashing people with a sword and charging into battle, but she doesn't seem to have any talent for diplomacy.

Lady Veronka then explained the reason for her decision: "Count Hyperven, while you are still busy with the battle in Blackiron City. I've already learned a little bit about Seacliff Fort first. In the eyes of those phoenix knights, you seem to have a good image. Those girls have a crush on you. ”

"Nonsense, I worship them with good food every day, of course I have a good feeling. And to be precise, it's not that you have a good impression of me, but that you have a good impression of the desserts and snacks I make. Gordon said in his heart.

"So I decided to make the prettiest of them all," said Ms. Veronka. Sigrid, who is also the strongest, stays. Earl Hyperven, you have no interest in starting a family for the time being, but I have learned from Dorne. Mr. Lannister has heard that you are interested in women, no different from other noble men of Ferredon. ”

Gordon smiled a little embarrassed as he held his forehead. The young Lannister, who didn't have a door on his lips and liked to add fuel and vinegar to everything, in these days of separation. I don't know what I've "ruined" my image into.

Seeing Gordon's expression, Ms. Veronka assumed that he had acquiesced. She continued, "But, Count Hyperven, if you want to have something to do with Knight Sigrid, it must be done on a consensual basis. I don't mind going with the flow, but I'm not going to force Sigrid to do anything. She is a knight, not a courtesan who spends her days wandering around the salon faction and using her body as a bargaining chip. ”

"Of course."

Gordon didn't care much about that. If you really go with the flow and have something with that female knight, it will naturally make people feel happy. But even if we have always maintained a friendship. There is nothing to regret either. He's not the kind of man who gets obsessed with the love of men and women.

Compared to the mysterious and wide-ranging conversation with the Lord of the Nine Towers, Jimbos, this conversation with Lady Veronka really made him feel that his energy was draining.

Thankfully, the conversation was finally over.

At the welcome banquet in the evening, Gordon told Xie Ona about the invitation to the Phoenix family jousting conference. The girl is very tempting. But when I thought that the Freeman family's territory was still in its infancy, that everything was complicated, and that the remnants of the Aldrich family had not been eliminated, I couldn't put my mind at ease. But Gordon was relieved. Nevertheless, she accepted Ms. Veronka's invitation.

During this time, Xie Ona was already very familiar with Miss Ji'er and those Phoenix Knights, and they had a good relationship, so Gordon was not worried that his sister would be lonely in Changxia Province.

Madame Veronka and her retinue maintained a strict military demeanor and did not drink too much at the banquet, and the guests on the other side, the mages from the Arcane Federation, were not the masters of the drinking habits, so the welcome banquet did not evolve into an all-night drinking party.

When the banquet was over, Gordon returned to his bedroom and eagerly opened the silver box that Kimboss had given him.

Inside is a bracelet.

The material is so special that even with Gordon's rich knowledge, it is impossible to distinguish it for a while. But the black gear-like pattern engraved on the silver-white bracelet was very familiar to him.

Gordon took off the Oranya necklace he had been wearing. Then again from the dimensional bag will be from Longe. Ritter took out the ring he had in his hand.

The material, color, pattern, and style of the three pieces of jewelry are exactly the same, just like a set.

"Hey, in this world, wearing this set of accessories, will there be additional attribute bonuses?" Gordon thought half-jokingly in the mind of a gamer.

From Longe. According to the information obtained by the Ritter family, including the Oranya necklace handed down by Gordon's mother, this four-piece set of ornaments is called "Destiny".

"When you wear the Oranya necklace, you can sense danger at a critical moment and turn evil into good fortune. So is it true that if you collect these four kinds of jewelry, you can really grasp the 'Mandate of Heaven'? ”

Gordon smiled and shook his head. He knew it was just his own speculation.

"Fate is the most mysterious force in the entire multiverse. Even the gods have no way of wielding this power. Could it be that with these four ornaments alone, a mortal can master the law of cause and effect and control his own destiny? ”

"Young people. You're right. Even gods can't control the power of fate. Never before in history has there ever been such a god as the 'God of Destiny'. ”

A middle-aged man's voice suddenly sounded behind Gordon.

The voice is gentle, subtle, and magnetic. The first time you hear it, it's not eye-catching, but inadvertently, it leaves a deep impression on your mind.

Gordon had only heard the voice once, but immediately remembered its owner.

Ion, the god of knowledge, Gordon's titular deity.

He turned his head away. Sure enough, he saw that the god wearing silk robes and gold-rimmed glasses, and a scholarly demeanor, appeared in his room.

He was holding a copy of "Encyclopedia of Southern Plants" and flipping through it.

Compared with the last time he appeared in front of Gordon, the momentum of his whole body was surging. The state of not exerting influence on the surroundings all the time is different. This time, Ion, who appeared in front of Gordon, seemed to be more restrained. At least after Gordon opened the Eye of Truth and Warning, although the magic aura that the other party scattered was very strong, it was also Cheng Dù of a high-level mage.

"I gave you a gadget last time, it worked perfectly, didn't it?" Ionn seemed to see Gordon observing himself with the eyes of truth and warning.

"It's very easy to use, it helps me a lot." Gordon said.

"Actually, you might have guessed it. This time I came to you, but it was just an illusion with no power, not even an avatar. Because this time I just wanted to say a few words to you. The god of knowledge laughed.

Although the other party's tone is relaxed. But Gordon knew that what a god wanted to say to himself was not just a matter of chatter.

"I am your believer, and I will do my best to do whatever you command."

"Young man, your faith as a believer is not too religious." Ionn smiled, "But your abilities deserve recognition. So all things considered. You are a quality believer who will be welcomed no matter what deity you believe in. So before I met today, I gave you a small welcome gift in advance. ”

"The Manifest Bracelet?"

Ionn shook her head.

"Darina?"

The God of Knowledge smiled and said, "Although that little guy is far inferior to you in terms of ability, his enthusiasm for knowledge is worthy of recognition. I give him divine power, firstly, as a reward, and secondly, to give you a worthy pastor talent, so that the school can be set up as much as possible. ”

Gordon understood. It seems that Dulina has become a priest who can perform the "magic of the three rings" overnight. Not only about him, but also about himself.

He asked, "And what about the almost clone arcane magic that Durina has mastered?" ”

"It's just because the way I bestowed divine power on that little guy was a little different. At the time of reaching our level of power. You can build your own energy network. It's like the magic web of the goddess of magic. It's just that the magic net is open to everyone, but the energy network of our gods can only be sensed and used by our respective believers. ”

The essence of the magic net is to summarize and organize the free, chaotic, and disordered source energy, so that it is convenient for mortal mages to extract and utilize. However, if it is a powerful spellcaster, such as the Grand Arcanists of the Magic Empire of Netherduran, they can directly extract source energy from nature and shape spells with their own power.

There is no doubt that since the Grand Arcanists can sit down to this point, the gods can do the same. And they are more powerful and can create their own private energy network for believers to use. Since the source energy has been transformed multiple times through the hands of the gods, and has been deeply branded by their respective gods, the spells that believers have molded when using these energies are also very different. This is the difference between divine magic and arcane art.

The special feature of the magic used by Durina is that Aion did not open his private energy network to Durina to use, but through the assistance of his own divine power, Dullina obtained a deeper right to use it in the magic net.

Therefore, the spells used by Durina were still in the form of arcane, although they bore the deep imprint of Ion.

And the reason why the god of knowledge did this was only a whimsical attempt.

"I just want to know about this power of the gods. And then communicate with the new form of the magic network, what is the strength of the priest. Whether it is stronger than a priest in the traditional sense, whether it can play the same role as a mage? Ionn explained.

It turned out that what had been studied by a group of sub-mages for a long time was just a sudden idea of the gods.

"Although it was just a whim, it was also an important attempt for me to strengthen my power." Ionn explained again.

In Gordon's impression, the god of knowledge has a relatively high status among many gods. Einou is one of the oldest gods in the world of Telos. Although there are not many believers, the strength is not weak. And he is not like some other gods, although he is strong, he has enemies that never die. The orc gods, who are hostile to knowledge and civilization, may be Ion's greatest enemies. But the conflict between them is far less big than that between the Platinum Dragon and the Five-Colored Dragon God. The reason why Gordon chose Ionn as a believer in the first place was also because it would be less troublesome.

But this is the one who tends to remain neutral in disputes with the gods. The gods of such a position are now also starting to find ways to increase their strength.

Encouraging Gordon to start a school was one thing, and making Dulina a new type of pastor was the second thing.

It seems that there is really something big about it, and it is about to be born.

Ione said, "Now in the divine realm of the gods, there is no peace. These moves of mine, compared to those other guys. It can only be regarded as a small fight. For example, the old man of Bahamut, Tiamat, in order to enhance his strength, actually cooperated with the Demon Lord to create a twisted creature called the "Abyss Dragon". Although the strength of the Abyssal Dragon is far inferior to that of the pure blooded dragon, it is extremely numerous, which makes Bahamut extremely headache. The old man now runs around with his four canaries. In order to strengthen your own strength, don't be overwhelmed by your old opponents......"

At this point, Ion's face showed a rare look of playfulness. He glanced at Gordon and said, "Although the dragon is powerful, its reproductive ability is too low. Therefore, in order to change the disadvantage of the metal dragons in the face of Tiamat's minions, Bahamut is also trying to increase the number of his own combat power. Those evil creatures are really yàn he naturally won't do it, but well. The old man had another way. One of them is to actively seek out foreign men for women of the right age in the dragon clan and promote interracial marriages. Like you humans. The fecundity is far greater than that of the dragon. Although they are inferior to the dragon clan in terms of individual lì quantity, the offspring born of the two should not be underestimated. ”

"Whether they grow into warlocks, mages, or warriors, they are indeed the first-class powerhouses in human society." Gordon agreed, "But what does that have to do with me? ”

The thought of the kind white-bearded old man who was also forced to run around was old enough to laugh. But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with him.

Aion glanced at the back of Gordon's hand, as if he could see through the hidden seal of platinum, "I know Bahamut thinks highly of you. So I'm afraid you will also be one of the choices of the human side in this batch of interracial marriages. So I'll congratulate you in advance, maybe sometime, you'll have one...... Oh no, maybe it's a couple of beautiful and powerful dragon girls as wives. ”

Ionn especially accentuated the word "powerful".

Although Gordon also envied the great deeds of the dragon knight Yin Zhiping when he was young, now, he is not sensitive to the beauty of the dragon clan.

The strength is far from herself, and she is likely to have shortcomings such as greed for gold, silver and jewelry, arrogance and cunning, laziness and sleepiness, and short temper, such a woman, even if she is a peerless beauty, Gordon does not want to be involved.

Let the real brave, or the real gentleman, be the dragon knight.

The God of Knowledge didn't see the look of anticipation on Gordon's face, and seemed a little disappointed. He finally brought up the most important thing in this meeting.

"I think I'd better give you the reason for the Mandate of Heaven bracelet, sue you." Ionn said.

Gordon's spirit shook. Although the gossip of the dragon clan sounds very interesting, what really interests him is these Heavenly Mandate ornaments with mysterious origins and unknown functions.

The Oranya necklace is a relic of Gordon's mother. The origin of the Mandate of Heaven may have a lot to do with his life experience. This kind of thing involving his own interests, he will naturally be very concerned.

"There are four Mandate of Heaven ornaments. Except for the earrings, which are hidden deep in the mountains of Vesura, everything else is already in your hands. And the maker of this set of ornaments, do you know who it is? ”

"Isn't that knowingly asking?" Gordon secretly slandered in his heart, but he just shook his head on his face, putting on an open mind to ask for advice, "I don't know, please tell me." ”

Ionn was pleased with Gordon's attitude. He smiled and said, "The maker of this set of ornaments is Asaph. Augustus. ”

Gordon's heart was awe-inspiring. Just hearing this name is enough to make any mage awe and yearn for it.

Asaph. Augustus, the founding emperor of the Magic Empire of Netherduran, has a series of titles such as "Elemental Emperor", "Pioneer", "God Butcher", "Legend of Legends", etc.

Not to mention anything else, just by virtue of the achievement of founding the great Magic Empire of Netherduran, it is enough to become the first mage in the past and present in the minds of many people.

ps: September is busy as a dog, not only is there very little time to code words, but there is almost no time to ideate. I'm not particularly satisfied with the quantity or quality of updates this month. Fortunately, it finally relaxed in October. From tomorrow onwards, the two watches will be restored, and in order to compensate, it will explode appropriately. In addition, the long-foreshadowed copy of Mount Waisula is about to begin, and the plot will have a breakthrough.
