"I heard that you have made an alchemy product, and the principle of this product is useful to Chriss?" still in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, Franklin asked with interest.
"Yes, Lord Franklin. β
Franklin then asked him about Agatha's language learning.
"She has mastered the Rhine language of the orcs and is learning Wolfe. Wang Qinian replied respectfully.
"She has a talent for languages, you teach him well, but you are also amazing, you can understand so many languages, can you tell me how many languages you have mastered?"
"I have mastered about twenty-seven different languages. Wang Qinian said.
"How is this possible?" Franklin was taken aback.
"I'm a tribal language of orcs. Wang Qinian hurriedly said, of course this is because he is modest, in fact, he can master almost all languages, as long as it is not directly involved in the laws of the plane.
Franklin was relieved that there were quite a lot of orc tribes, more than human countries, and if a human country was counted as one country, and the orc tribe was also counted as one, then twenty-seven different languages were not too many.
Moreover, the difference between the tribal languages of the orcs is not as big as the difference between the bird language and the Chinese before Wang Qinian's crossing, and it is about the same as the difference in the dialects of the provinces.
"Agatha likes you very much, I mean she likes to learn languages with you, you were chosen by her, she said that she chose you after seeing you talking to Sidipat of the Rhine at the bazaar, and she didn't want any of the language teachers I found for her before, but it's a pity that Chrissy is not available now, otherwise ......" Franklin said with a little regret.
"I will cherish the opportunity given to Miss Agatha, and the Lord of the City can rest assured that Miss is very intelligent, and she is very gifted with language. Wang Qinian did not hesitate to praise his students.
Chrissy said the same, and said that she was also very talented in magic. Franklin said with relief.
After a while, Franklin suddenly said, "One more thing, I heard that you are preparing a theater performance?"
"Yes, I was about to ask the lord for something. β
"Do you want to borrow the City Lord's Mansion to rehearse? Agatha has already told me, but aren't all plays performed on a theater set, why do you need to come to the City Lord's Mansion to rehearse, even if I promise you to borrow it, it's useless, when you really start performing, it is impossible to move the City Lord's Mansion there. Franklin laughed.
Agatha intercedes for her teacher when he is happy, saying that she wants to borrow the city lord's mansion to rehearse the play, and Franklin's first thought is to refuse, which is a complete joke.
However, Agatha is his beloved daughter, so he was patient, and when he was about to summon Wang Qinian to reprimand, he changed his mind and asked Chriss about it, but what he heard from Chriss was a very high evaluation of Wang Qinian, which made him change his mind and ask Wang Qinian in detail.
"Lord Castle, this is not strictly a traditional theatrical performance, but a different kind of performance, which I call the Shadow Animation, because it uses magic to record, store, and play the performance, rather than performing it on the spot like a play. β
"It's kind of interesting, but what's the benefit of that?" Franklin said puzzled, "I asked Chrish, I heard that the alchemy scheme he designed for you was derived from you and his joint creation?
"My lord, traditional drama pays a lot of attention to stage performances, so it is very important to swing on the spot, even if the practice is successful, if the performance is not good on the spot, the performance will be ruined. And if I use the way I know now, there will be no such problem, because it is equivalent to filming the performances that I think are qualified in many rehearsals with magic, and then composing a performance similar to a play, and the form of the performance, I choose to be closer to life. As for the benefits, my lord, the city of freedom is becoming more and more prosperous, but I think it will become a famous city in the future, destined not to be limited to military and economic reasons, what do you think?"
Franklin was stunned for a moment and laughed, "Well said. Free City is my life's work, and like Agatha, it is my most precious thing, and it certainly shouldn't be just militarily and economically powerful in the future, but also culturally appealing. Well, you can try it, but I'm afraid I won't give you a direct investment, you can only rely on yourself, but it's like borrowing the lord's mansion to rehearse, no, shooting, I can allow it. β
"My lord, not only the Lord's Palace, but I will also go outside the city to shoot the real forest for the filming. Wang Qinian said.
"Forest?oh, most of this area is wilderness, the real forest is quite far away, the nearest place that can barely be called a forest is dozens of kilometers away, it won't be too safe to go out, you say that, but you want me to help again? Okay, I promise you, when you go to the forest to shoot, I will send two squads of city guards to take care of your safety. β
Wang Qinian was overjoyed, there are not many people in the two squads, only two hundred people, well-equipped, good combat effectiveness, the regular infantry in the elven magic chess is a first-order ordinary evaluation, the city of freedom has been investing a lot of income in the military for so many years, and the basic ability of its various arms is at least one to two small levels higher than that of ordinary regular infantry, the city guards in the outer city have a first-order elite level, and the city guards in the inner city are probably strong in the first order, Franklin also has a personal guard, it is said that there are five hundred people, I heard that the worst in it have the level of heavy infantry, of course, this is also piled up with better equipmentγ
"You can come tomorrow, and I will tell the guards to let you in. Agatha said that she was also interested in seeing your Shadow animation. "I'm going to support you on this shoot, but I'd rather you do something magical or otherwise, and Criss has a good opinion of you, and I'm very short of useful people here." β
"Don't worry, my lord, I am distracted by doing this because I want to go further in the future. Wang Qinian said.
Franklin glanced at Wang Qinian in surprise, he understood what Wang Qinian meant.
Magicians, and the research done by magicians, are very resource-intensive, to put it mildly, with resources, especially in alchemy. Magicians with great achievements are often cultivated by major forces, some of which represent the royal family of a country, some are wealthy families second only to the royal family, and there are behemoths like the Wizards' Guild, at least a powerful group in the gray area of the underground world, with the only exception being the Academy of Magic.
Like Chris, he also borrowed the resources of the Free City, and Wang Qinian's meaning seemed to be relying on his own strength.
Franklin actually misunderstood, Wang Qinian didn't mind completely defecting to the Free City, but he knew that with his current level, although he was barely remembered in the eyes of Chris and Franklin, he was only a potential stock.
Gritting his teeth, Wang Qinian took a deep breath and said: "There is one thing that has not been confessed to you the city lord, in fact, before I met Bernhard, I belonged to a large slave hunting team, and now those wood elves in the guest house area were originally our captives, but due to the attack by the Ante Ant-Man on the way, there are only a few people left in the slave hunting team." β
Franklin was slightly moved, and said after a moment of silence: "Actually, I have already guessed that you may have had some problems in the past, and it was not Bernhard who sued me, he didn't sue me for anything." But those wood elves are too conspicuous, but Bernhardken defends you, Chris has a good opinion of you, and most importantly, Agatha trusts you, and I hope you don't live up to her trust in you. β
After Wang Qinian finished speaking, seeing that Franklin was still willing to let him be Agatha's teacher, he immediately relieved his heart and felt a sense of relief.
He inherited Owen's qiΔ, and he must also bear the influence for his past, and the background of the slave catcher is really not a good one.
"I've traveled a lot into the wilderness with a slave catcher, and my teacher is a dark mage who is proficient in languages, so I know a lot of orc tribal languages. Rest assured, Lord Franklin, I like Agatha very much and will not let anyone hurt her. I want to stay in Liberty City and make it my home and the base point of my exhibition, and become a high-level mage or even a legend. β
"Okay, I'll see. I was just a poor swordsman with only dreams, but now I have built a city. Franklin smiled.
Wang Qinian finally confessed his past this time, and this was his decision after weighing the pros and cons.
He now has a good relationship with Agatha, like a teacher and a friend, and has a common secret, learning Elvish, which is enough for him to have a good impression in front of Franklin.
And it's not a way to keep it hidden, after all, his relationship with the wood elves will fall in the eyes of the discerning people, and those elves don't have any scheming, and now they haven't had much contact with people because they are strange, so don't worry about them telling the truth.
But as time goes by, whether it is the success of Wang Qinian's plan, the Wood Elves really integrate into the Free City as actors, or the army that will join the Free City in order to survive after failure, it is possible to reveal the past.
So Wang Qinian simply confided his true past to Franklin, and he also estimated that it was not bad at all, and he passed the test smoothly.
After Wang Qinian left, Franklin remained in place.
"Chris, this kid is really interesting. Franklin stared in the direction of Wang Qinian's departure.
At some point, Chrissy quietly walked in through the side door of the hall.
