Early in the morning of December 23, 1379 in the Medland Glory Calendar.

Jo woke up in a very extravagant bedroom on the third floor of the Apophis Palace, lying in a pile of splendid bedding as soft as a cloud, Jo yawned pleasantly, twisted his body vigorously, and wanted to sleep well.

This room was so comfortable.

This is the master bedroom that the old highness who has broken things has carefully constructed for himself.

The size of a single bedroom is as large as Joe's master bedroom in Tulun Port, and all other supporting facilities are readily available, and the luxury is unimaginable to ordinary people.

Every aspect of the bedroom is exquisitely designed.

Although the area of the bedroom is vast, under the exquisite design and luxurious furnishings, it does not appear empty at all, but has a sense of inclusion like a mother and a fetus, which makes people feel inexplicably warm, safe and comfortable.

Early in the morning, the fireplace was boiling hot, the natural aroma of fruit wood 'beeped' in the fireplace, the air was filled with a faint, warm aroma of fruit wood, Joe was as comfortable as a roast duck embryo in the oven, just want to close his eyes and fall asleep...... Not willing to move at all.

But soon, Crimson's instinct suppressed all sleepiness and laziness.

Joe cursed in a low voice, leaped up from the huge four-poster bed large enough for a dozen people to roll over at once, and landed silently on the ground, landing both feet precisely into the velvet slippers on the ground.

He took off his silk pajamas, strode to the floor-to-ceiling window of the bedroom, and forcefully opened the heavy curtains of the floor-to-ceiling window, and suddenly a large frozen lake appeared in front of him.

The full moon-shaped lake is covered with thick ice, and a small island in the middle of the lake, which is about dozens of acres in size and shaped like a jewel, and several palaces and pavilions on the island for recreation, are all shrouded in thick snow.

On the pier leading to the island in the middle of the lake, a few lonely large waterfowl are standing alone, motionless like statues in the cold wind, only occasionally flapping their wings to indicate that they are still alive.

The lake is surrounded by neatly manicured landscape forests, and now the endless woods are also shrouded in thick snow.

In the early morning, there is a white cold mist spewing out from the woods, floating on the surface of the lake, the wind slowly rolls across the lake, and in the milk-like cold fog on the lake, the naked eye can see that the fog the size of a water tank is rotating slowly.

It is worthy that after making a huge discount, he also slashed Qiao fiercely, and forcibly poached the mansion of 50 million gold marks from his pocket.

The early morning snow scene in front of me alone is worth the price......

Joe remembered that after leaving the War Department yesterday, he took Gorkin as his companion and led a large group of men to the Apophis Palace.

It's a perfect house that you can't fault with.

Joe really couldn't bear that this house was not his own...... His mind was hot, and he immediately handed over to the palace manager of the Royal Assets Management Bureau who was present, and he took out a traveler's check worth 50 million gold marks, and the Royal Assets Management Bureau was also very cooperative, and it only took just one hour to complete the handover procedures of Apophis Palace.

Today, the title documents of the Apophis Palace are properly kept in a secret vault.

This 500-acre Apophis Palace, which covers an area of 500 acres in the core area of the imperial capital of the Deren Empire, the top power on the mainland of Metland, and should be built and furnished with extreme luxury, has now become an estate in Qiao's personal name.

It's just that it's cool when I buy something.

Afterwards, remembering the handful of traveler's checks that he handed over, Joe was so heartbroken that he ate five or six more roast leg of lamb for dinner.

However, Joe took Hesse, Tifa, and Weima from 158 Green Pine Street, and Weima happily ran around the mansion laughing and screaming, and Joe's heartache washed away.

At least after waking up this sleep, Joe's mood has calmed down a lot.

"The shopkeeper with a grimace is right, money is a bastard, and you will earn it when you spend it...... Besides, I still have so many gold marks......" Joe gently patted his bare chest, forcibly comforting himself.

"Well, it's really not good, so let's find a few wronged people and sell them more new power potions...... Even, Laprahi, if I sell the prescriptions for the improved Abyssal Mayfly and the Dark Elf Elixir to His Highness Salian......"

"Are you sure?" Laprahi's cheerful, high-pitched laughter rang out in Joe's head, "Still, I think you should take the third transcendent potion...... Let me see, the third-order potion of the Hydra sequence, the Abyssal Dragonhorn Python, or the Abyssal Crocodile...... Oh, oh, I have a prescription, but can you get the right ingredients? ”

Qiao slapped his forehead vigorously: "Damn, the people from the military department said before, because of my merits, they provided me with the first five order potions...... Is it a third-order dragon horn python or giant crocodile dragon potion? I'll have to talk to the bigwigs in the military department. ”

"Well, I need to talk about it. I have a perfect improved formula for the third-order elixir here, the old rule, take the money, and you can get the most perfect evolution template. Laplasi smiled happily: "As for whether you want to do something with the perfect prescriptions of the first and second order...... I only sell knowledge and I never make any recommendations. ”

Joe hesitated.

He pondered for a moment, then shook his head.

Selling the perfect recipe for a Hydra sequence to Salian?

There was some uneasiness in his heart, as if it was some kind of death-seeking move...... Don't say that Salian, even the imperial family behind him, is going to attack like a bull with a red-hot iron burning his ass, right?

Well, there are so many ways to make money, and you can't irritate those horrible Hydras!

Joe opened the floor-to-ceiling window with all his might, and the cold wind swept in the mist, causing the flames in the fireplace to shake for a while.

Qiao took a deep breath, and four colors of light gushed out from his body, turning into thick pillars of light and plunging straight into the void, and in an instant, he disappeared into the void and disappeared.

In the boundless, indescribable, and unpredictable Dirac Sea, the four basic elements turned into a mighty torrent and roared down, instantly submerging into Joe's body. Joe's body greedily devoured the elemental energy from the Dirac Sea, gradually transforming it into a deep, pure dark power, and then under the influence of the 'Crimson' instinct, a faint red layer was plated on top of the dark power.

The strength was increasing little by little, and Qiao's burly body was like a giant beast in ancient legends, wriggling and stretching strangely...... Performed strange movements that normal humans simply can't imagine.

With these strange movements, his strength is improving, his agility is improving, his flexibility is improving, his physical attributes are rapidly improving, and his efficiency of devouring and digesting the four basic elements is also slowly improving.

Spiritual power in the sea of spirits.

The power of flesh in the sea of power.

Knight power in the sea of energy.

The three strange powers continued to become thick at a trace, and then continued to be tamped, becoming more solid.

Such a peaceful and beautiful early morning......

Outside, there was the sound of Weima's laughter.

Wrapped like a bear, Vima, accompanied by seven or eight maids left behind by the Royal Household Assets Authority, staggered onto the frozen lake on her skis. She laughed out loud and slammed her poles hard, and the whole person slammed forward along the smooth ice.

In the next moment, Weima screamed, and fell down on all fours with her feet in the sky, her small body 'shirting' on the ice.

Facing the frozen lake, on the terraces of three different bedrooms, the cheerful laughter of Hesse, Gorkin and Joe rang out at the same time.

Because of the good mood brought by Weima, after Joe finished his early morning practice, he sat in the dining room for breakfast with a smile on his face...... He had already been filled with the four basic elements and had little appetite, but he suddenly became more appetizing, and he heartily killed a roasted whole sheep and dozens of sauerkraut pork sausages.

The good mood was suddenly shattered after the arrival of a herald from the War Department.

The herald of the colonel, wrapped in a cloak and with snowflakes on his shoulders, handed a Salian warrant to Joe: "The special train of St. Attila, the new archbishop of the Empire of Delen of the Golden Oak Church, is only a three-hour drive from Hyderaberg. ”

"Major Joe von Wittur, and Major General Gorkin von Wittur, please come to the Imperial Capital South Station within two hours to attend the welcoming ceremony."

The colonel's herald gave Joe a military salute before turning to leave.

Jo opened Salian's warrant and read it carefully.

Hesse stood behind Joe, gulping down a cup of strong coffee, and muttered vaguely, "The imperial capital doesn't seem to welcome the arrival of Saint Attila?" Well, the port of Tulum has been preparing for his welcoming ceremony for more than half a month in advance...... Tsk, as the plenipotentiary envoy of the imperial grandson, you only informed you to prepare a few hours in advance? ”

Hesse smiled a little gloatingly: "I'm curious, your Highness Salian, this is a preparation...... How chilly is a welcome ceremony? ”

"Why don't you go and see the excitement for yourself?" Joe shook the warrant in his hand and shrugged his shoulders towards Hesse: "Anyway, I went all the way with Gorkin yesterday, and I didn't hear anything to prepare......"

Hesse touched his beard with interest, and his eyes couldn't help but flash with a malicious glow: "Isn't it forbidden for idle people in society to visit?" Well, it's good to go and see the excitement...... Well, your Highness Salian ......"

Joe rolled his eyes at Hesse, "Our Highness Salian...... He is the grandson of the Imperial Emperor, Prince Hydra who is most likely to inherit the throne in the future! ”

"Well, our Highness Salian...... Our Highness? Hehe, hehe, hehe. Hesse laughed a few times, picked up the huge coffee cup, and drank it all: "Tifa, you take Weima to have some fun...... Daddy went to see the excitement...... Well, when we were in the port of Tulum, our Saint was very ...... On the high horse. ”

"I would love to know what a spark of passion they can rub together here for Fort Hyderabad, our Saint and His Royal Highness!"

Joe shrugged his shoulders again, he glanced back at Gorkin who was sitting at the table and let out a soft 'pull'.

In the hidden pocket of Joe's chest, the thick stack of large-denomination bills he had put in early in the morning disappeared in an instant, and there was not a single one left.
