Chapter 16: Arrival at the Royal City
Aristocrats are a privileged family in this world, and for Lu Bu, it is impossible not to want this kind of cheap gain.
At the beginning of the rising sun, Lu Bu and Edward and Napuru followed the envoys of the kingdom and headed in the direction of the royal capital, while Chen Gong and Gao Shun were responsible for guarding the rear, after all, although the surrounding robbers were cleared, it was not certain that those robbers would not be allowed to come back, plus there were several relatively powerful bandit gangs, which made people have to guard against it.
"Lord Lu Bu, you are really tall enough! I really wronged you in such a small place. The kingdom envoy received a lot of benefits from Lu Bu, and his attitude was naturally very good, and he said with a smile: "A big man like you should develop in a broader place in order to have more opportunities!"
"I'm from the country, don't lie to me. Lu Bu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a faint smile: "A big place is good, but the competition is also big, and this time is also an opportunity to appreciate the outside world." ”
"I won't disappoint Master Lu. The envoy said with a smile on his face: "Please rest assured, I will definitely use all the resources to make the lord satisfied, and with the merits of the lord to exterminate the bandits, it is not an exaggeration to be awarded the title of viscount, and among those robbers, there are many wanted criminals of the kingdom." ”
"Then there is the messenger of labor. Although Lu Bu disdains this kind of behavior, but pay a certain benefit and obtain greater benefits, this deal is worth it, the viscount and the baron are only one title apart, but the gap between the two is very different.
The viscount will be a real nobleman, and the fief will also become hereditary, even if Lu Bu does not attach much importance to this, but others do not see it that way, especially those who follow him, they will be more motivated, after all, the title of nobility will not be withdrawn as long as they have not made a big mistake, and can be passed on forever, and those who serve him will naturally be worry-free for generations, after all, nobles have always enjoyed the worship of the people in the territory.
Eagle City is the city where the Eagle Lord is located, with a population of around one million, and the Eagle Lord is a veritable count who has been passed down for many generations. Lu Bu was also surprised when he first came to Flying Eagle City, he didn't expect that the cities in this world were so different from the Central Plains.
The arrival of several people was cordially received by the Flying Eagle Lord, and they seemed to be very interested in Lu Bu, but to Lu Bu's surprise, the Flying Eagle Lord was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child, no wonder the surrounding governance would be so unbearable. The fief of the Flying Eagle Lord is also within a radius of three hundred miles, and Erin Town is already outside its territory, so it is no wonder that it will refuse to support, but as a person who guards one side, it is also a little unkind.
Lu Bu's achievements around Irene Town have attracted the attention of many people, after all, those wars can definitely be called classic battles. Of course, there are many people who won't admit it, but Lu Bu doesn't care, so that he understands some of the lifestyles of the world's nobles.
After dinner, Lu Bu stepped on the airship to the royal city under the farewell of the Eagle Lord, he was still very surprised by the airship, it seemed that the things in this world were too far from what he knew and thought, and in his opinion, maybe this was also an opportunity for him to understand the world.
"Why is that young earl so polite to me?" Lu Bu asked curiously, "Edward, didn't you say that nobles are all guys with eyes above the top?
"In the eyes of the aristocracy, there will always be only the nobility. Edward muttered: "The lord has the opportunity to arrive in the royal city this time to obtain the knighthood, that is, he may become a new nobleman, and the fief is likely to be next to the territory of the Earl of Flying Eagle, so he naturally wants to have a good relationship with you." ”
"Is that so?" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows, glanced at Edward, and said curiously, "You seem to be a nobleman before, and what kind of magician are you, how could you fall to such a state?" ”
"Lord, it's better not to say this, with the lord's current status, even if he knows, he won't help me anything, but will cause unnecessary trouble to the lord. Edward hurriedly explained: "Lord, it's not that I underestimate you, but that the other party's identity is too sensitive. ”
"Really? Lu Bu said disapprerovingly: "I'm not a person who likes to inquire about other people's affairs, you can say what you want to say when you want." You can rest well today! I didn't expect the ship to be able to fly in the air, it's amazing. ”
Lu Bu leaned against the window, looking at the undulating peaks below, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought, there are too many magical things in this world, although he has learned a lot from Edward, but he always feels that he doesn't know why, and he is really getting more and more confused.
The airship flew in the sky for three days and three nights, and Lu Bu gradually became accustomed to the freshness from the beginning, after all, it is strange to see rare, and when he saw more, he began to slowly accept the facts. Lu Bu was naturally not idle, in addition to chatting with the kingdom envoy, he was to learn more about the kingdom with Edward, and of course, the situation about magic and those so-called magic magic.
Lu Bu learned that in fact, the magic power of a magician is a kind of power that combines spiritual power with external elements, just as external elements are integrated into his true qi, and the fighting qi cultivated by some warriors is a kind of power of body cells. Through comparison, Lu Bu found that in fact, the true qi he cultivated had the dual ability of magic power and fighting qi, which made him gradually have some positioning for himself.
To put it simply, true qi is a more advanced existence than magic power and fighting qi, after Lu Bu learned about this situation, he inevitably had a little pride in his heart, and he believed that as long as he broke through the seventh level of "Taixuan Mixed Yuan Gong", he would open the shackles of the upper dantian, but his spiritual power would be more abundant, and his true qi would also be qualitatively improved, so that the absorption of that kind of energy from the outside world would be more rapid.
Lu Bu had already learned from Edward that it was not easy for a magician to accumulate magic power, it needed to accumulate over time, and the longer he meditated, the worse the effect would be, but he was extremely simple to absorb external energy, as long as he ran the "Taixuan Mixed Yuan Gong" was like a whale swallowing, but the energy from the outside world was too little, and it was not enough for him to absorb.
If Edward knew about Lu Bu's distress, and didn't know if he would hit his head on the tofu and die, there was no way, there is a good saying, people have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away. Sometimes, people are like this, and they must not be compared, otherwise they will be angry to death, and it is not impossible.
After the seventh day, the airship finally landed slowly in a huge city, and Lu Bu also knew that this city was the royal city of the Elan Kingdom, with a history of thousands of years, a population of more than 10 million, and one of the top ten cities of mankind.
