Chapter 9 Relationships are Complex
The time for the assessment ceremony has arrived, but it is obvious that there are still big names who have not arrived, so everyone can only wait patiently.
Luo Fatzi took advantage of this time to hurry up and give me a make-up lesson, hoping that I could do something to reverse our unfavorable situation.
"Sect Master, do you see that big orb, it's a high-quality Ice Elemental Magic Stone, which can increase the power of magicians to cast magic, and in the hands of rookies, it can help increase the success rate of casting magic. ”
"In the magic assessment, candidates need to use the help of the Philosopher's Stone to cast an ice elemental magic of no less than level eight. The way to do this is to say in Elven language, 'O ice elemental, let me see your presence.' Just this sentence, you don't need any magic energy, with the help of this magic stone, you can just pronounce the words clearly. ”
I thought to myself, is it that simple? Aren't those who fail the test stupid?
Luo Fatzi probably guessed my mind and secretly explained to me: "This matter is not as easy as you think, Elf is the most difficult language in the world to learn, and the pronunciation style and voice are strict to the point of being almost perverted." Just like asking a normal person to learn the roar of a dragon and a tiger, it is not easy to imitate a general sound, let alone to the extent of expressing communication with the roar of a dragon and a tiger. ”
As soon as I heard him say this, I understood how difficult it was for an ordinary person to perform magic, and at the same time, I became more and more satisfied with my language talent, at least in the future, I could walk smoothly on the road of magician.
After that, Luo Fatzi briefly introduced the steam technology assessment, and the process is also very simple, candidates only need to repair a faulty steam boiler.
In the public perception, magic and steam technology are one and the same, most candidates will choose steam technology, although the subject content is very complex, and the future practice will be more difficult, but it is better to take the test than too talented magic.
At this time, an official solemnly announced: "Duke of Teddy Kingdom, King of Principality of Rainer, Kilimanjaro - Genting, Royal Family of Rainer Kingdom, Commander of the King's Guard, Amazon - Holy Light Driven to ~~~"
As the names of the two big men were announced, everyone looked at a special passage in the back garden with great respect. The trumpeter sounded the loud song of the king's journey, and an old man in a pure white fur cloak and a silver crown on his head, and a fat middle-aged man wearing the royal costume of the golden kingdom and holding a golden helmet, walked into the back garden together.
Luo Fatzi squeezed out a voice from his throat: "The old immortal is your godfather, and the one holding a golden urn is your grandfather......"
I have the impression that the old man is the king of the Duchy of Rainer, and he said what happened to my father-in-law? The royal family member holding the helmet, did his girl miss me? Or did his girl take advantage of my stupidity and give me a drop?
Thinking of this possibility, I was frightened and looked behind Commander Shengguang, fortunately, there was no pig-fairy-level woman in my family.
Behind Grand Duke Genting and Commander of the Holy Light, there were also guards and family members, a large number of men and women.
Grand Duke Genting and Commander of the Holy Light sat down on the two thrones, their guards and dependents who did not enjoy special treatment, and stood behind them, along with a pair of young boys and girls about my age, who walked towards our side. I noticed that the girl's dress was very distinctive, in addition to the royal costume, she also wore a pair of big cotton shoes, like stepping on two rice cookers, and also wore big white cotton gloves on her hands, like grasping two pillows. The cute and funny outfit goes well with her playful face.
"Sect Master, Sect Master, these two are your cousin and your cousin~"
As soon as Luo Fatzi mentioned it, I remembered that Grand Duke Genting once recognized me as a godgrandson, and also gave me and his own grandchildren as cousins.
My cousin and cousin are both from the Kilimanjaro family, my cousin's name is Yun Lan, and my cousin's name is Yun Xi.
Luo Fatzi said: "After the death of the son of the Grand Duke of Yunding, Yun Lan's grandson became the first heir to the throne of the Duke of Ruina, don't look at him as decent, in fact, everyone knows that he is the youngest in our generation, and everyone suspects that his father was poisoned to death by him." Damn, my father can be poisonous, isn't this a beast!"
In the process of evaluating Yun Lan with bad words, Luo Fatzi seemed to have forgotten that he had poisoned his entire family, and he was not as good as a brute!
"Your cousin Yunxi is okay, according to my observation, she is the only person in the entire principality who respects you, hey, I guess I think you can still intermarry with the royal family, I want to hug my thighs, and I will introduce you to a royal object in the future~"
Yun Lan's brother and sister were close, Luo Fat Man hurriedly shut up, his eyes avoided Yun Lan's gaze at him, looked away, and pretended to whistle.
The other candidates all saluted them: "Prince Yunlan, Princess Yunxi." ”
As a royal family, the two are transcendent.
Yun Lan nodded coldly, and Yun Xi responded with a smile. After accepting the greetings from the candidates, Yun Xi took the initiative to take a step closer to me and greeted me affectionately: "My cousin is in good spirits today, don't be nervous, you have to play well~" After speaking, he took a step closer and whispered to me: "Don't be afraid if you don't play well, I've already begged my brother, he will help you find a way......"
The latter words were in a low tone, tinged with worry and unease.
After that, the two walked into the queue of candidates and made an approachable gesture, but the other candidates were far away from them, obviously in awe.
There was a sudden presumptuous laughter from the direction of the throne: "Hahahaha, the Genting Grand Duke family is not only full of talents, but also has a harmonious family relationship, I think the Yunxi County Lord and the fool have a very close relationship~~~ Ahahaha." ”
Grand Duke Genting was old and frail, and his reaction was slow, and in the face of the extremely rude words of the Holy Light Commander, he said for a long time: "My lord, after all, Naochun is the heir to the title of the Alpine family and the godgrandson of this king, so he should be respected." ”
Luo Fatzi shook his head and sighed: "Hey, the Grand Duke is old, and he has always been worried that the kingdom will fight the idea of the Principality after his death, but can he keep the peace of the Principality in the future generations by blindly currying favor with the royal family over the years, I think it will boost the arrogance of the royal family, let alone take the Principality in his eyes." ”
Just like Luo Fatzi said, the Grand Duke's demeanor and reaction made Commander of the Holy Light, who obviously wanted to humiliate the face of the Royal Family of Rainer, be excited.
"That's right, yes, hahahaha, before the fool was exiled, he would always be a fool representing your Rena royal family, a fool representing your nobles, ahhahahaha~~~"
Everyone didn't dare to be angry or speak out about the rudeness of Commander Shengguang, and accompanied Grand Duke Genting to lower his eyebrows and endure it.
Luo Fatzi knew that I had regained my senses, and it was just ridicule before, but now I can't help others humiliate me endlessly, and I will be furious when I clench my fists.
Before I could hint at stopping him, the Yunxi County Lord on the side spoke first.
Her crisp voice revealed a lawless willfulness: "Yes, yes, what Lord Shengguang said is so right, Cousin Naochun has not been expelled for a day, he is still the royal nobles of the Duchy of Rainer, and he is also the royal family of the kingdom, the son-in-law of your Amazon family!"
Yun Xi's words made the fat face of the holy light red, because what she said was the truth, I still have a marriage contract with the Amazon family, and according to the etiquette, I have the status of a quasi-royal family.
The subjects in the back garden were already dissatisfied with the provocation of the Holy Light, and when they saw that the county lord had extinguished his arrogance with a word, they all showed joy on their faces, and they all cast their eyes on Yun Xi with admiration and respect, and at the same time, they also showed uneasiness, worried about the next reaction of the Holy Light.
The holy light did not attack on the spot as others imagined, his attitude towards Yun Xi was surprisingly polite, adjusted his mood and said with a kind smile: "Princess Yun Xi's personality is really likable, no wonder she is known as the most beloved princess of the three principalities, and no wonder your brother in the north of my family will not forget you." ”
I have a relationship with the Royal Family of Rainer, and I have a marriage contract with the Royal Family of Teddy, and the members of the royal family have taken a fancy to the princess of the Royal Family, and the relationship between the characters here is quite chaotic.
Grand Duke Genting said slowly, "Lord Holy Light, let's start the assessment ceremony. ”
Shengguang pouted and hummed: "Okay, hurry up and start and end quickly, I still have to take care of the daughter of my family~"
Grand Duke Yunding nodded: "Archmage, you can start." ”
Under Genting's order, an elderly mage dressed in a white robe, wearing a pointed mage hat, and holding a small staff half an arm, led a team of mages dressed as the same mage but without a magic hat, and a team of engineers in heat-insulated overalls and work helmets, to the middle of the back garden.
The mage team and the engineer team lined up on either side, and the archmage with a staff in hand began to preside over the assessment.
The annual assessment is the biggest event in the Principality of Rena, and the celebration is held a week before the assessment, so that candidates will not be distracted by the celebration process and can focus more on the day of the assessment.
There was no superfluous ceremony, and the Archmage first asked all the candidates who participated in the steam technology assessment to be listed, and under the watchful eye, they entered a separate area for the fault repair assessment.
As soon as the candidates of Steam Technology left, the lineup of candidates immediately shrank by ninety, and only five people chose to stay and participate in the magic assessment.
These five people include me and Luo Fatzi, Prince Yunlan, Princess Yunxi, and a half-sized man with a big snot crossing the river and being stunned.
Luo Fatzi smiled evilly and touched the head of the half-grown child: "Isn't this prune-dripping pee, a poor boy from a civilian background, who doesn't honestly learn steam technology, and still expects to pass the magic assessment and ascend to the sky in one step? This year is also your last chance, I think you kid wants to be exiled with me~"
This little man named prune-dripping urine said that he was more than 16 years old.
Ximei snorted vigorously, then swallowed a big mouthful......
He looked up at Luo Fatman: "My name is Ximei-Diño, Diño, not called dripping pee!"
Luo Fatzi corrected with his tongue wide: "That's right, DI Di, NI Ni, AO Ao, dripping urine~"
Everyone heard that Luo Fatzi was playing this stunned boy, and they all felt angry and funny.
The Archmage announced, "The magic test begins, and candidates who hear their names are invited to enter the test." Candidate No. 1, House of Loki, Viscount Paul. ”
Retribution is coming soon~
