Chapter Seventy-Seven: Gerald
Jessica divided the pill bottles among the chicks, and several of them scattered to give medicine to the injured people, and the chicks realized at this time, and Jessica called them over, and it turned out that they were free coolies.
Fortunately, Jessica also gave them some sweetness, and after giving the students the medicine, the rest of the medicine was left by themselves.
Jessica is being generous and buying people's hearts for herself, several chicks have seen the miraculous effect of 'white bone powder', and when they heard that the medicine that cannot be used up can be left by themselves, they all screamed excitedly.
The murderous name of 'white bone powder' can be regarded as officially becoming the lifelong code name of this medicinal powder.
By noon, the team was already on the road again, there were no wounded, and there was no reason to stay where they were, so Mr. Colin announced the departure.
After that, the journey was easy, and after eight days, the team returned to the academy.
When I returned to the college, it was evening, and the college gave the students three days off according to the usual practice, and then returned to the college on the fourth day to participate in the college's commendation meeting.
In fact, this is also to facilitate the academy to have time to evaluate the performance of the students, after all, there are thousands of first-year students alone, even if it is a general evaluation, it will take a lot of effort.
After saying goodbye to Jessica and Amy, Li Feng turned around and walked towards the blacksmith shop, he was away from home for more than a month, and he really felt a little homesick, so he didn't say anything about sending Jessica home.
But it doesn't seem that he needs to send it, there are many carriages parked outside the academy, all of which are here to pick up students, Jessica left the academy and got into a carriage directly.
After Jessica got into the car, an old man stuck his head out of the car and looked at Li Feng a few times.
This old man's expression was a little ambiguous, and Li Feng almost got goosebumps when he saw it, could it be an old glass?
This old man is not an old glass, he is Jessica's grandfather, Gerald, known as the closest great swordsman to the Sword Master, the only recipient of the Imperial Gold Medal, and the hereditary marquis.
His title is not very high, but no duke who sees him must salute him first, and the Golden Medal is the only one in the Empire, which was specially set up for Gerald.
Gerald and Claudius the Great have been friends since childhood, from the time when Claudius has not ascended the throne, he has been acting as his bodyguard, Claudius sits on the throne of God, Gerald also has the skill of the dragon, he acted as Claudius the Great's personal guard, for more than forty years, more than once desperately saved Claudius the Great, and was regarded as a brother by Claudius the Great.
Gerald had five sons, each of whom joined the army and died for his country to defend against the invasion of the barbarians from the north.
In recognition of Gerald's contribution to the Empire, Claudius the Great personally awarded Gerald the Golden Medal.
What does this medal do? If according to Li Feng's understanding, this thing is basically equivalent to a gold medal for avoiding death, except for wanting to seek a dynasty and usurp the throne, no matter what crime Gerald committed, he does not need to be punished by the laws of the empire, this is a treatment that even the prince, prince and other royal relatives do not have.
Even Claudius the Great was ready to accept Jessica as his daughter, but because of the big difference in seniority, the matter was stopped.
Jessica is Gerald's only granddaughter, not only is Gerald's pearl, Claudius the Great is also very fond of her, and even when Jessica was not an adult, she was given the title of Marquis by the Great, on par with her grandfather.
It can be said that even the emperor's own children may not be favored by Jessica.
With the emperor covered, who would dare to provoke Jessica casually? Adonis pursues Jessica, many nobles are secretly laughing, although the Marquis of Derazion has recently won the trust of the Emperor, but he is only a grassroots nobleman after all, why should he be worthy of Jessica? If he provokes Jessica, I'm afraid he will have to be buried with his family.
Seeing that Gerald was secretly looking at Li Feng, and the expression on his face was still so ambiguous, Jessica couldn't help but roll her eyes and said unhappily: "Grandpa, what are you looking at?" ”
Gerald laughed, "This guy is the same Allen you talked about last time?" It doesn't look like anything out of the ordinary. ”
Jessica had a little headache, this grandfather is really like an old naughty boy sometimes, "Grandpa, didn't you tell me not to judge people by their appearance?" Why don't you have a long memory? ”
Gerald was taught a lesson by his granddaughter, and he was not angry at all, and while beckoning the coachman to leave, he asked with a smile: "Did you reveal any secrets about him during this trial?" ”
Jessica's eyes lit up, "In this trial, Alan did expose a lot of secrets, grandpa, look at me, do you see any changes?" ”
Gerald looked at his granddaughter with a smile, "It's true that it's a little changed, the skin has become more watery, and, well, the face is peachy, the eyes are shining, don't you like that Ellen?" ”
Is this like what a grandfather said to his granddaughter? Jessica was angry, stared at her eyes for a long time, and finally couldn't help this unobtrusive grandfather, and said weakly: "Grandpa, with your eyesight, can't you see that I have been promoted?" ”
Gerald's face became serious, he looked at his granddaughter carefully for a while, and said in surprise: "This is indeed the elemental aura of a mid-level magician, have you really advanced?" ”
When a magician communicates with the elements, he will emit an elemental aura, which is the best way to prove his level, but it is not an easy task to be able to see the elemental aura clearly and distinguish the level of the magician.
Jessica said, "Of course, but grandpa, can you guess how your granddaughter made the cut?" ”
Gerald hesitated for a moment and guessed, "Could it be related to that Ellen?" ”
Jessica's face became serious, and she nodded: "Yes, he has refined an elixir called Sanbai Dan, which can actually help magicians advance." ”
Gerald gasped and said in shock, "What? How is this possible? Wouldn't he be a magician's residence? ”
Being able to help a magician advance, for a magician, it is not an exaggeration to regard him as a god's residence, although Gerald is not a magician, but he is knowledgeable and knows a lot about magicians, so he knows very well what this means to magicians.
Jessica shook her head and said: "This elixir also seems to be defective, I took the elixir together at that time, plus I am a total of four people, two of them are trainee magicians, one is a high-level swordsman, the elixir is not very helpful to the swordsman, but after the two trainee magicians took the pill, they were immediately promoted to the junior magician, I also had a feeling that I was about to be promoted, but I did not advance on the spot, until more than ten days later, the team encountered danger, I was frightened, But all of a sudden, he was promoted. ”
Gerald's face changed slightly when he heard Jessica say that he was in danger, but since his granddaughter could still sit in front of him, of course, he would save the day, so he didn't mention it anymore, and said with a solemn face: "Even if you can only help the trainee magician advance, it's terrifying enough, not to mention that you won't be promoted later?" It shows that the elixir is also helpful for beginner magicians, which is really terrifying. ”
Gerald thought for a moment and said categorically: "No, this matter must be reported to Your Majesty immediately, the importance of this Alan to the empire is simply incomparable, and someone must be sent to protect him immediately." ”
As he spoke, he poked his head out and told the coachman to change direction and drive towards the palace.
Jessica didn't stop her grandfather's movements, and waited for Gerald to sit back before she spoke, "I don't think there's any need to send someone to protect Alan. ”
Gerald shook his head, his face was still a little serious, "You don't know, there must be eyeliner from other empires in the academy, it is estimated that the news of this Alan has already been flying all over the sky at this time, once the other empires learn the news, Alan will either face the pull of the major empires, or countless assassinations, there will never be any other possibility." ”
Jessica had already listened to Teacher Charles's analysis, and of course she knew the severity, "This is the second thing I'm going to say, I think other empires would never send someone to assassinate Eren if they learned about what happened in the trial, because it would be completely meaningless." ”
Gerald frowned and looked at Jessica suspiciously.
Jessica said slowly: "On the way to the trial, Alan single-handedly killed a Nether Tortoise, and it was also a Nether Tortoise that was about to be promoted to the lord level, such a strong person, I'm afraid it would be difficult to assassinate." ”
Gerald almost jumped up, and said loudly: "Impossible, this is impossible, the Nether Turtle is a super-level demonic beast, not to mention, you also said, it is still a Nether Turtle that is about to be promoted, how old is Allen, it is estimated that he is at most eighteen years old, if he can kill the Nether Turtle alone, then your grandfather, who is nearly a hundred years old, will not live to a dog?" ”
Jessica winked playfully and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I'm afraid that at your hundred-year-old age, you are really going to live to be a dog, the scene of Allen killing the super-level demonic beast through the Nether Turtle, all the students who participated in the trial have witnessed it with their own eyes, will the granddaughter tell such a stupid lie?" ”
Gerald glared at Jessica fiercely, and wondered, "This Eren really killed a super-level demonic beast that was about to be promoted?" You really didn't lie to grandpa? ”
Jessica glanced sideways at her grandfather and didn't explain.
Gerald laughed dryly, "Okay, grandpa is just too surprised, a Nether Turtle that is about to be promoted to the lord level, even if Grandpa makes a move, he is only eighty percent sure, this Alan can actually kill it alone, it's really amazing." ”
is also a great swordsman, Teacher Colin can hardly pose much of a threat to the Nether Turtle, but Gerald dares to boast that he is eighty percent sure of killing it, Jessica's expression is also very natural, and she doesn't feel that her grandfather is bragging, because she knows that although her grandfather looks out of tune, his strength is absolutely unmatched, and Teacher Colin is in front of her grandfather, I'm afraid it is a question whether he can survive ten moves.
