Because of all the unexpected changes, Leo is very interested in the things stored in the space in his hand, and if it weren't for the fact that attending the wake would be very important for him to fulfill Peter Alcott's promise, maybe he would still stay in that hut now, studying how to get the things out of the space smoothly.

It was precisely because of his mentality that he didn't care about the situation of the wake at all, and he was not interested in paying attention to the situation in the wake hall, and after sitting down with Vicesmere, he devoted himself to the study of the space in his palm.

Although Leo and Witzmere had taken the initiative to keep a low profile, their behavior was out of step with the atmosphere in the hall, after all, when everyone stood up to chat and gossip with the others around them, two people sat on their chairs as soon as they came in, saying nothing, and had no intention of standing up and talking to others, which made the two of them stand out in the wake hall.

At first, perhaps no one paid attention to the two of them, but soon some eyes fell on them.

For Witzmere, the exclusive merchant of the Ninth Chief, those who have a heart can still recognize it. If it was before, maybe someone would have taken the initiative to greet Vitzmir by now, but these well-informed people knew that this position in the ninth chief was a bit worrying, so they didn't have the idea of making friends, at least until Vitzmir's position was consolidated.

Compared to Vitzmere, who was easily recognized by someone with a heart, Leo was a stranger who was more likely to arouse the curiosity of people with a heart, not because they found out that Leo had any special temperament, but because they were very puzzled about how such a stranger with black skin was qualified to sit in the wake hall.

After discussing Leo's identity, some people soon recognized Leo's origin, after all, Leo's sale of wizard potions that day was also a worthwhile matter in the aristocratic circle, and Leo's special skin color naturally aroused some curious people to investigate.

After learning about Leo's identity, some people who know a little about Peter Alcott's will can't help but feel that their trip is not in vain, and they are likely to see a good show.

After that, several well-wishers who couldn't sit still gathered around Robert Alcott, the notoriously short-tempered heir of the Seventh Alcott family, and whispered to Robert Alcott about Leo, who should not have been in the wake hall.

However, to everyone's disappointment, Robert Alcott, the eldest son who was most interested in Peter Alcott's legacy, did not rush to Leo and drive him out of the wake hall as they had hoped.

On the contrary, after Robert Olurquette knew Leo's identity, he just turned his head, looked at Leo calmly, and said nothing, as if he didn't know about the will, and continued to communicate with the factory managers around him who participated in the wake, such as improving the factory system.

However, while Robert Alcott calmly accepted Leo's arrival, a woman wearing a black veil standing not far from him looked very unhappy when she heard of Leo's arrival.

She first glared at the ignorant Witzmere with a resentful gaze, apparently seeing Vitzmere, who had brought Leo to the Wake Hall, the main culprit who had done bad for her good deeds.

Then she shifted her gaze to Leo, and looked at Leo with some unscrupulous care, her eyes undisguised her disgust for the color of his skin, which Leo could still feel even in deep thought.

Released from his contemplative state, Leo raised his head and followed the disgusted gaze towards the source, and when he saw the woman wearing a black veil and a black robe, his expression was very calm, so calm that the other party felt like he was being ignored.

On Leo's side, the parabrain system easily analyzed from the other party's position, clothing, and the attitude of the people around her towards her, that this woman should be Peter Alcott's biological mother, that is, Anna Alcott, the head mother of the seventh Alcott family.

Leo didn't have any unusual views on Anna Alcott's woman, although she married her father and then her son, and gave birth to four heirs for her son who didn't know how to count their generations, but these are the reproduction customs of the noble family in Lake Town, and they cannot be viewed as outside customs.

However, Leo also does not underestimate this very weak-looking woman, not to mention that this lady Anna has used her own means to rule the 7th Alcott family for decades, making her husband and son Andre XIII a puppet-like existence. The hidden power that Leo discovered from her alone was enough for Leo to treat her as a real opponent.

According to rumors, Anna Alcott is an ordinary person who does not have any ancestral physique, which is a felony in any aristocratic family, and the status of such a member in their respective aristocratic families is probably not even comparable to that of ordinary servants.

However, Anna Alcott was lucky enough to meet a father who doted on her and a son who trusted her immensely, both of whom happened to be the heads of the Seventh Alcott family.

However, now in Leo's opinion, this Anna Alcott's past experience and rumors may not be described only as good luck, but also inseparable from Anna Alcott's own real strength. Because even if Anna Alcott has no traces of ancestral status on her body, as a wizard, she is not as weak as rumored by the outside world.

How strong Anna Alcott is, because there is no specific comparative data, and the parabrain system cannot analyze it. But judging from the psionic fluctuations emanating from Anna Alcott's body, as well as the large and small wizarding curiosities on her body, the entire town on the Seventh Lake should not be her opponent except for herself, Marek, and the expedition Charles Longco, who has only arrived a few days ago.

After looking at Leo for a while, Anna Alcott turned around and said a few words to the person next to her, and then walked directly to Leo and sat down under the gaze of some well-intentioned people in the wake hall.

Anna Alcott's actions were also seen by the members of the Seventh Alcott family, most of whom showed some surprised expressions on their faces because they didn't understand the situation, wondering what this would-be family master was doing.

Robert Alcott, who was only aware of the situation, frowned slightly, and a trace of displeasure flashed on his face, but he did not intend to stop his mother, but only divided part of his attention and spied on the changes in the situation here.

"Fifty thousand. Anna Alcott didn't even carry out a ceremonial conversation ceremony, and directly exposed a number.

This straightforward way of talking, if the person who changed to a dull person didn't understand what it meant, Leo easily understood that the half million should be the money to buy the mechanical puppet.

"I'm not short of money!" Leo replied calmly without turning his head to look at Anna Alcott.

"Silver Moon Coins. Anna Alcott said again.

This time, not only Leo was a little surprised, but even Vitzmere, who was about to stay out of the situation, couldn't help but let out an exclamation after hearing the three words of the Silver Moon Coins.

The main currency in circulation in Lake Town is the Federal Currency issued by the Lake District Alliance, which is also the only legal tender recognized by the Lake District Alliance, but the Silver Moon Coin is a special existence. It is not circulated to the public, it is a magic currency specially developed by the Wizards Association of Silvermoon City for official wizards, mainly used for some witchcraft-related commodity transactions, and is not circulated to the public.

And because the production of this currency requires the sorcery of wizards, the manufacturing process is very complicated, so the number is not very large, according to incomplete statistics, the wizarding association has produced a total of less than 20 million silver moon coins.

It is precisely because of the extremely rare number of silver moon coins outside the flow channel and the special origin that the nobles of the Lake District Alliance also flock to the silver moon coins, believing that transactions between nobles should also be settled in silver moon coins, so as to distinguish the class between nobles and commoners.

Therefore, in the aristocratic circle of the Lake District Alliance, the ratio of silver moon coins and federal coins has always been high, from the initial ratio of one to two, to the current one to one hundred and two, that is to say, the fifty thousand that Anna Alcott said is actually six million in federal currency, which is more than the accumulation of an ordinary aristocratic family in a lifetime.

The reason why Wittmere was so surprised was not because of the large and striking number of the Silver Moon Coins when converted into Federation Coins, but because of the Silver Moon Coins themselves.

As the exclusive merchant of the Ninth Chief, Wittmere naturally knew very well how strong the purchasing power of Silver Moon Coins was in Silver Moon City, and even more aware of how scarce the number of Silver Moon Coins was. Taking the Ninth Chief as an example, even with such a high-ranking Chief Wizard, it was impossible for him to take out 50,000 Silver Moon Coins at once, and it was already very remarkable to be able to make up 20,000 Silver Moon Coins at the top.

As for the other chief wizards, the situation was similar to that of the ninth chief, only the first three chief wizards were slightly better, but they still needed to consider it if they wanted to take out 50,000 silver moon coins at one time.

Now Anna Alcote has taken out 50,000 silver moon coins so easily, and the seventh Alcott family where Anna Alcott is located is not the strongest in the entire Ten Towns family, so it is not difficult to imagine how deep the background of the entire Alcourt family is, not to mention the strength within the family, in terms of financial resources alone, I am afraid that the ten chiefs of the Wizarding Association may not be able to compare with each other.

Compared to the strength and heritage of the Alcott family that Vitzmere thought of through the 50,000 silver moon coins, Leo's attention was more focused on the mechanical puppet worth 50,000 silver moon coins.

Peter Alcott's psionic puppet maid really shocked Leo, if it is placed in the universe where the Earth Federation is located, such artificial intelligence robots are not without it, but in such a world where technology is still in the steam civilization, such a mechanical puppet is extremely amazing.

From the moment Peter Alcott wanted to carry the psionic puppet into the wasteland, Leo knew that this psionic puppet was not ordinary, but now Anna Alcott's performance made him understand that he was still a little underestimated the value of this psionic puppet.

According to Leo's understanding, as a puppet puppet made by psionic energy, once the puppet psionic person who gave it psionic energy dies, then the psionic puppet will lose any vitality, and the only valuable place is the mechanical structure in the puppet's body.

But now Anna Alcott is willing to spend 50,000 silver moon coins to buy the scrapped psionic puppet from Leo, which is difficult to explain by the reason that she doesn't want her son's relics to be left behind, the only thing that can be explained is that the current psionic puppet is probably hiding Peter Alcott's big secret, and this secret Anna Alcott should know.

"Seventy thousand. Seeing that Leo didn't react, Anna Alcott continued to add 20,000 silver coins.

This time, her voice was much louder, causing the other people around her to pay attention and those who didn't can't help but turn their eyes away. When those who didn't know the situation learned from other well-intentioned people that there were 70,000 silver moon coins involved, the hall immediately became a lot quieter, and from time to time some shocked gasps could be heard.

Robert Alcott and others, who were children, were also dissatisfied when they learned of the situation, but no one stopped their mother's seemingly crazy behavior.

"I'm not short of money, Mrs. Anna Alcott. Being the object of being watched by everyone made Leo also feel a little uncomfortable, frowned, and responded coldly.

Hearing Leo's answer, the magnates in the surrounding towns on the Seventh Lake all felt extremely different, not to mention the power of the Seventh Alcott family, the 70,000 silver moon coins paid by the other party alone was already a huge amount of money, and many noble families may not be able to have such a huge amount of money in their lifetime.

But Leo, a stranger with black skin, rejected Anna Alcott's deal so casually, and it was not difficult to hear from his tone that the other party didn't seem to take the Alcott family into account at all, which made everyone doubt Leo's identity again.

Hearing the refusal again, Anna Alcott did not make any further statement, stood up, did not say anything, and left the wake directly, without even waiting for the announcement of the important inheritance for a while, which means that she is equivalent to giving up the part of the inheritance that should have been inherited.

Seeing Anna Alcott's unexpected move, even the most dull people in the Wake Hall could clearly understand that the de facto ruler of the town on the Seventh Lake was angry, and very angry.

As for the other named members of the Alcott family's will, they looked at Leo with a very unusually grateful look, because Leo's refusal undoubtedly helped them, and they could all get a piece of the inheritance that Anna Alcott did not want.

At this moment, an old man with a wrinkled face came out of the crowd, came to the front desk of the wake hall, put the document bag in his hand on the wooden platform, struck a few times with a wooden mallet, and said: "I announce that Peter Alcott's wake will begin!
