Upon entering the castle of the Akmund family, the boys discover that it is a war fortress at all.

The passage was dotted with dark rooms and weapon racks, and there were many heavy square iron shields on the walls. The blades of the weapons shone with a cold light, and the shields were polished to a receptive level, and these fierce objects were obviously not ornaments. If necessary, the iron shield is thrust into the ground and then used a special bracket to resist it, and it will immediately become a solid cover.

The entire ground floor is composed of a military station, a warehouse, a secret passage and a weapon rack, and from the second floor, there are guest rooms and living rooms. Mordred took Richard to his father, and the other three were placed in the guest room.

Next, Richard and Reilly seem to be back to the rhythm of the deep blue, wandering through the library of the Akmund family, absorbing a vast amount of knowledge, including plane wars, the Temple of the Eternal Dragon, the history of Faust, and so on. It stands to reason that Reilly, an outsider, should not have been brought into the family library. However, when it comes to a constructor who is likely to join them, any family will put on the most forgiving attitude.

Soon, Reilly met Richard's father, Gordon Akmund.

This is a man with a strange charm, with a smile on his face all the time and his hair neatly combed. He has clear and pure dark green eyes, which impresses Reilly.

As soon as they met, Gordon bluntly asked him if he was interested in joining the Akmund family, and promised many benefits. Reilly said that he had formed an alliance with Richard, and that it made no difference whether he joined or not. Gordon gave him a deep look and said nothing.

Recently, the City of Legends has been calm on the surface, but behind this calm is an undercurrent.

Floating Island No. 6 on the sixth orbit of Faust was the domain of Duke Joseph. As one of the ten families that established the Holy Alliance, Joseph did not go further, but he did not decline. With the precipitation of time, the heritage of this family has become deeper and deeper, like an ancient tree, deeply rooted in the soil of the Holy Alliance, and it is difficult to shake.

Unlike Akmund's fortress, which was ready to engulf its enemies, the Joseph family's floating island was more in line with the aesthetics of the human aristocracy, and hundreds of years of painstaking management made it a crystallization of art.

In an ancient castle, several men sat in a row, vaguely exuding the aura of a strong man. A tall, thin aristocratic young man stood in front of the bookshelf across from them, constantly looking at something from the books.

As he read the book, he said to the others, "Is the news confirmed?"

A capable middle-aged man said, "It has been confirmed by various means that Richard Akmund is a quasi-constructor. However, there is no more detailed information from the dark blue side for the time being, and we have no way of knowing what level of Richard's construction level has reached. In Deep Blue, there is a surprisingly low amount of information about Richard, and the information mongers behave unusually, either asking questions or throwing in a bunch of useless trivial information, and it is difficult for us to get more accurate information. ”

"What else needs to be confirmed?" said another tall man coldly, "How many Constructed Knights will a fifteen-year-old Constructed Knights create for the Akmund family in the future?"

A mage next to him sneered: "Nasibi, do you really not know or are you pretending to be stupid? The person escorting Richard is the demon king of Mordred! Even if you have the ability to volley in the field, how much will it cost to kill Richard from his men? Or do you want to personally lead the team to fight Mordred?"

The big man immediately roared: "Jia Wen, what do you mean by this!"

The mage named Jia Wen sneered and said, "What did you mean just now, what do I mean now!" Since you think that I am not planning well, then you, the person in charge of leading the army, should play a more role. ”

At this time, the old man sitting on the right hand side coughed and said, "Stop arguing, there is no point in talking about this now." There is no doubt that the Akmund family has another gifted little guy. The question now is how much we should take him. ”

The young man wandering among the bookshelves stopped, looked up, and said, "By the way, our venerable young master once said that Richard was making a non-standard structure that added to his magic. ”

"Non-standard construct?" Jia Wen snorted, he also had a certain understanding of the demon pattern construct, so he quickly made a judgment: "This Richard is very likely to become a great constructor in the future!"

Thus, in the hearts of these people, Richard became the most dangerous figure of the younger generation of the Akmund family.

"Guys, I just found an interesting piece of news. The young man lifted his glasses, pointed to the open page, and said, "Richard has made a friend in Deep Blue, and his name is Reilly. Although this person is not a student of His Highness Su Helen, he has to spend more than a million gold coins on the cultivation of magic every month, and this situation has lasted for five whole years!"

The young man raised his head and said with a smile, "What kind of talent and status does this Mr. Reilly have to be worthy of such a huge amount of funding, and how strong will his family be?"

There was a gasp in the room, twelve million gold coins a year! they could hardly imagine the forces behind it.

The young man continued: "It is said that this Mr. Reilly has come to Faust with Richard and is currently a guest on the floating island of the Akmund family. Can we assume that the family behind him wants to cooperate with Akmund, and if so, then to sever the ties between the two forces. If not, a future architect is worth the price. ”

After a pause, he smiled and said, "Everything we can pay now is just a great price for the Joseph family. ”

So everyone understood that this was to eradicate Richard at all costs!

"Are you going to prepare for war?" said the war, and the corners of Nacibi's eyes were bloodshot.

The young man closed the book in his hand, gently placed it on the table, and said with an age-appropriate calmness and confidence: "No, there is no need for that yet. As long as we do it perfectly enough not to let others grab too many handles, then Gordon will not start a war casually. He was a very clever man, and he must have known that a war at such a time would not do either side any good, and would only cheapen the old fellow Julius. ”

He pointed to the diorama of the legendary city and said, "First of all, we have to get little Richard out of this little island full of pungent smells. And then...... Well, he's definitely going to check it out at the Eternal Dragon Palace, and I think it's a good location. What do you think, Mr. Feron?"

Seeing the place chosen by the young man, the old man named Fei Lun's pupils shrank, nodded, and said, "This place is very good, but the action must be fast." Who to send?"

"Falk Joseph, this is the best candidate. The young man said without thinking.

Everyone's faces changed a little, and Jia Wen asked even more hesitantly, "Is this really necessary?"

The young man said indifferently: "Of course it is necessary. If it weren't for Fokker, do you think Gordon would have given up? We couldn't have gotten a little trick from him, and we couldn't have gotten away from the old foxes. So we have to come up with a sacrifice of sufficient weight to give an account to Akmund, as well as to the royal family and other wealthy families. Mr. Faeron, I'll ask you to go and do some activity on your side. Also, give the prepared things to our lovely young master, and by the way, tell him that we must not let Reilly appear in our preset ambush circle!"

The old man stood up first, and said respectfully, "Listen to your orders. ”

The others also stood up in obedience.
