Chapter 408: Federation Idol
Just in the royal capital of the Peacock Kingdom, it is experiencing turbulent changes in the times, and the three major corps of the Federation in the agreement are also secretly deploying at the same time.
Today, within the Federation, it is still as peaceful as ever.
For a country that has been at the top for a long time, the citizens of the Federation have long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow of a certain self-confidence.
And at the time of the winter and spring, countless people are rushing to the national city of Skeva to participate in the annual spring festival in the capital.
The so-called Spring Festival is not actually a sacrifice to heaven and earth or ancestors, but a carnival with a strong humanistic atmosphere, with the intention of completely relaxing the body and mind after a year of tension.
Unlike empires and papal states, the Confederation has neither ancestors to be honored nor deities to be worshipped, so naturally there are not so many restrictions on festivals.
In this way, it is the Spring Festival carnival held by the Federation that is the most anticipated event on the continent.
......
Su Mu and Su Tong, who entered the federal border with great fanfare, quietly broke away from the returning mission again at this moment, and specially rode in the ordinary Qi-powered carriage, enjoying the rare time alone between the two.
After Su Mu returned to the federal capital this time, he obviously couldn't leave half a step after half a year.
Therefore, Su Mu naturally hopes that he can slowly and comfortably take in all the scenery along the way, and then really return to the road arranged for him by the Federation.
However, this kind of behavior, although Su Mu can do it willfully. After all, the Academy of Magic has not yet opened, and Su Mu, the acting tutor, has nothing to wait for.
However, as Lu Xi, who had already been the thirteenth seat of the academy, she forcibly left the mission to accept Su Mu's return, which was already an extremely transgressive act, and now it was naturally difficult to continue to be willful.
And the most important thing is actually ...... Since Su Mu had chosen Su Tong openly and honestly, and completely buried the throbbing of Lu Xi in his heart, Lu Xi naturally wanted to subconsciously widen the distance between the two.
The journey back to Skywo City is not only a kind of boring procrastination of Su Mu on the one hand, but also a romantic journey between Su Mu and Su Tong on the other hand.
Therefore, as a "mentor", Lu Xi naturally has no reason to stay.
Therefore, in the end, those who quietly disappeared into the federal countryside were actually only the couple Su Mu and Su Tong, as well as Su Tong's current personal guard Qin Wupi.
......
"Thanks to the fact that the Confederation is maintained and expanded every year, and because the Confederation is located in the southern part of the continent after all, there is no real harsh season. So on the continent, the Federation is also the first country to adopt a two-year-a-holiday period. ”
"The crowd that is now going to the city of Skaiwo is probably mixed with a large number of administrative workers who have returned to their hometowns, as well as students from various colleges. ”
Regarding the news that Su Mu will serve as the acting mentor, as Su Tong, who is the closest to Su Mu, she has obviously already learned from Su Mu's mouth.
So at this moment, when talking about the students in the major academies, even Su Tong looked at Su Mu with a slight smile.
No matter how talented Su Mu is, after all, he had just turned eighteen years old before he left the Federation, and even among the students in the Magic Academy, there were many people who were older than Su Mu.
If you really want Su Mu to teach those people, although others seem to take it for granted, but in the circle that is most familiar with Su Mu, everyone will still feel a little ridiculous.
However, when it came to this, Su Tong was stunned, but looked at Su Mu a little shyly.
Then he turned the conversation around, and said with some natural pride:
"But after all, you are the pride of the entire federation and the goal of all the outstanding young people of the federation, so I'm afraid that as long as the news really spreads, those students are looking forward to it more than yourself. ”
"Although you do seem to need a way to collect people's hearts as yourself. But in fact, as students of Northland Academy, they are not eager to meet you. ”
When Su Tong said this, he once again revealed a bit of political acumen.
"On the one hand, this move by the top level of the federation naturally gives you a way to access talents. On the flip side, however, they are not aiming to push you out to attract more people to work for the council. ”
"So if I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid that in the coming days, the federal top will not only not limit your reputation, but will actually add fuel to the fire...... Shaping you into a true Federation icon!"
......
And just when Su Tong was talking to this point, Qin Wupian, who was driving the Qi power carriage, lifted the curtain of the carriage a little helplessly, and then reported to Su Mu and the others softly:
"A runaway Qi-powered limousine on the road seems to have knocked over the cargo of a certain caravan, and now the two sides are theorizing about who is responsible, so that the road is temporarily blocked. ”
There is such a thing as a horse-drawn carriage, although it is indeed a great convenience for transportation.
However, as long as it is an alchemy machine, there will always be a time when something will suddenly go wrong. The runaway Qi-powered carriage was obviously unable to shut down due to the alchemy core's accident, so it crashed headlong into the caravan's truck-pulling vehicle.
"How do you deal with this kind of thing?"
Su Mu didn't have any opinion on the road being blocked, after all, he wasn't too happy to return to the capital too soon. However, for the traffic accident on this continent, Su Mu was extremely curious.
After all, in this world, there are no traffic laws or anything.
"Logically speaking, this kind of thing is naturally out of control and the party thinks it is unlucky. But when it comes to today's incident, it has nothing to do with ourselves. ”
As there were more and more onlookers on the road, Su Tong looked carefully at both sides of the accident, but once again raised a cute snicker.
Su Mu was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't seem to understand what this matter had to do with him.
And Su Tong saw that Su Mu was puzzled, but he explained a little funny:
"Although it is true that the person who ran out of control and crashed into the caravan had a problem with his own Qi-powered carriage, if it is really traced back to the source, it is actually the reason for the carriage manufacturer. ”
"But I'm afraid you've forgotten who the largest alchemy supplier in the Federation is today. And the alchemical core of the Qi powered carriage that caused the accident in front of us is provided by our own workshop. ”
When Su Mu heard this, he finally understood what Su Tong said.
Since the root of the problem lies in the alchemy core, and the alchemy core of this carriage happens to be provided by the workshop under Su Mu's command.
So in the final analysis, it seems that this matter is really something that Su Mu has to meddle in.
......
"Why, if your fur hasn't really been destroyed, even if I give you some reloading costs, how can I compensate you for the original price of a hundred gold coins?"
A young man who was not very old was standing in front of the caravan leader and arguing with reason.
However, the young man's demand for compensation for the caravan was misunderstood, and the caravan was actually a transport convoy under the Trade Covenant, and the furs on the carts were pure luxury goods.
The demand for a hundred gold coins is really just compensation for wear and tear, and the other party really didn't blackmail him indiscriminately.
And for this, Su Tong, as the princess of the empire, naturally saw through it at a glance.
So just before the two sides had to quarrel again, Su Mu and the three of them, who had changed their clothes slightly, also came to the middle of the crowd.
At this moment, the phantom demon ball that was quite sleepy was also pulled out by Su Mu again and started working, so others naturally couldn't discover the true identities of Su Mu and the others.
However, for Qin Wupian as a guard, she also slightly released her knightly power at this time, so that the onlookers immediately noticed the arrival of Su Mu and the others.
"This is my identity insignia, after you confirm it, you will return to the covenant to claim the corresponding compensation, as for this friend in front of you, you should not embarrass him anymore. ”
The leader of the caravan was stunned when he heard this, and was thinking about who the person who came.
But when the leader of the caravan saw the emblem presented by Su Mu clearly, this person didn't dare to say anything in his terrifying eyes, so he directly lowered his eyebrows and nodded yes, and then hurriedly loaded the fur into the cart and left.
As for Su Mu's behavior, the young people who were helped by Su Mu were slightly dissatisfied.
After all, from his point of view, he was obviously blackmailed by others, where did he need Su Mu to jump out and pretend to be a good person.
Fortunately, Su Mu did not give any explanation for all this.
At this moment, he was extremely keen, and he had already discovered the badge on the young man's chest, and suddenly understood the origin of the young man's arrogance.
That badge Su Mu was naturally extremely familiar with, and it was not the emblem of the Mysteries Society founded by Su Mu. This person has already joined the Mystery Society, which has a high threshold, at such a young age.
The young man in front of him...... He turned out to be an official mage above the middle character level!
