Chapter Eighty-Nine: No More Than Three Minutes

The car carrying Aqua regia drove into a mountain range that looked quite natural.

Thick and ancient primeval mountain forests, sheltered by rolling mountains, abundant water vapor condensed into clouds and mist, and dense vegetation flowed between the valleys.

And further afield, there are snow-covered mountains.

The meltwater of the snow and ice merges into a waterfall stream that merges into a rushing river that cuts through the valley and flows between the more winding mountains, bringing life and hope.

Flying in the largest valley, the vigorous vitality brought to Wang Shui was no less shocking than seeing space for the first time.

Although he had already foreseen it, when he saw the ancient castles in the dense forest, Wang Shui couldn't help but want to complain about the taste of this ancient wealthy family of advanced civilization-

The natural environment here is too primitive, and it is very incompatible with the ancient castle, and it is almost the same as putting a ruin here.

To add insult to injury, there are large artificial gardens and squares outside the castle complex, as well as a foundation road disguised as much as possible as possible in dirt and rock, which extends deep into the dense forest.

All in all, it's hard to say in one word, and I don't make an evaluation.

Werther, the manmaid and chauffeur, took Wang Shui directly into a garage built on a high place.

A large number of luxury cars, flying machines, and even high-end mobile armor fill this small space, and in the corner of the garage, there is a professional transformation area stacked with large equipment.

Inside the castle, the decoration style is not particularly old, digital equipment can be seen everywhere, and the structure is cleaning and maintaining the castle.

Wang Shui was ushered into an expansive living room, a large room that connected his bedroom, study, and living room, which had temporarily belonged to him.

"You can use everything here as you please, and you can read the books in the study. If you encounter anything, you can call me directly. Finally, while it's not clear what your eating habits are, I highly recommend trying the local cuisine. ”

As a temporary valet to King Shui, Witt began his professional work.

"Okay, prepare dinner for me after a standard hour, I want to go to the study first, oh by the way, is there any forbidden area or more dangerous places here?"

"No, this castle complex is just a temporary recuperation place for family members, there is nothing dangerous, but there may be third- and fourth-order transcendent creatures in the primeval mountain forest outside, if you want to go shopping, we will arrange security personnel.

By the way, is the dinner in the dining room, or is it delivered to the living room? ”

"It's good to send it here, I'm not interested in going out for the time being, but the study materials mentioned before, please hurry up and sort it out."

"Of course."

Talking generously and behaving elegantly, Wang Shui behaved naturally when answering each other, and he took off his hunting trench coat by the way.

The valet Witt took it very naturally, and hung the trench coat on the wardrobe servant in the corner.

Werther did not show the slightest negative emotion because of Aqua regia's cheap clothing, close-fitting straps and weapon sheaths.

Nor did Shui Wang show an inadequacy with the luxurious environment.

Both of them were very professional.

Witt left for the time being, and Wang Shui began to inspect the adjoining rooms, and on a high table, found the layout of the castle complex, which was apparently shown to him.

After a full ten minutes, Wang Shui paused his divergent thinking amid the knock on the door.

"Please come in."

After the heavy and delicate huge wooden door opened and closed, a bald middle-aged man with a high-spirited temperament walked in, he half-raised his head, walked to Wang Shui and stood still not far and said:

"Hello, Your Excellency Benjamin, I am the family's chief tailor here, for your next activities, we need to make a dress for you, I hope you can cooperate."

Wang Shui, who had already untied his gear belt and tactical belt, sent a courtesy smile to the serious middle-aged man.

"Of course you can, but you should have received my body data a long time ago, right?"

"I only trust my hands and rulers."

The middle-aged man was neither humble nor arrogant, Wang Shui shook his head with a smile, and opened his hands in agreement.

"Do you have any requirements for the style of the dress?"

"Just don't make it too fancy, it's easy to move, and it's better to have some protection, compatible with mobile armor."

"Combative, timeless classics, decorative details can be a little more practical, and long tops are perfect for your figure."

The chief tailor [Kangjia], while measuring the body of Wang Shui, explained the knowledge of customizing clothes for Wang Shui in an elegant tone.

And Wang Shui noticed that the tailor's eyes were extremely keenly locked on the long trench coat hunting suit he hung up.

Sure enough, the tailor couldn't help but say:

"It is not difficult to see that the hunting suit is the same as your pants style, except for the poor materials, the design style is still very good, but the mass production goods of [Elite Military] company, the protective performance is not ideal."

Regarding the tailor's evaluation, Wang Shui just smiled and did not explain.

The tailor didn't say much more, and just continued his work:

"We make long and short tops, and the style is a little more conservative. Do you have any requirements in terms of color? ”

"Black, white, dark red, dark blue, dark gold, dark gray, turquoise, and...... Cyan-black? ”

Wang Shui gave the tailor a vocabulary display.

"Well, in terms of clothing design, generally do not use more than three colors as the main body, and there are very few of the three. The decorative colors are mostly gold or lighter solid colors, and there will be no such exaggerated combinations. ”

The tailor actually really thought about these combinations.

Wang Shui hurriedly explained:

"I mean, these colors are fine, design them according to your ideas, you can do a few more combinations, let me see how good you are."

Wang Shui maintains a just right image of a young aristocrat, who can be polite, but not passive.

And what he received was the tailor's serious answer: "Of course, it is my pleasure." ”

I only believe that my chief tailor is gone, and it is very efficient, and it will only look like a few minutes before and after.

Wang Shui shook his head with a smile, and then entered the study that belonged to him for the time being.

Compared to other rooms, this study is not very large, and the bookshelves only occupy two walls, but the books that can be placed on these bookshelves are all rare books with strong professionalism.

Wang Shui even found a few locked [Magic Books]!

These "living" books not only have seals and shackles, but also very intimate keys attached.

Tsk, that's all good stuff.

As we all know, knowledge has a price.

The casters who can make the magic guide book are all high-level bosses, and they summarize and refine the exclusive research results and spell-casting skills in order to make a powerful magic guide book, the value of which can be imagined.

Wang Shui didn't rush to open these precious treasures, he wasn't sure if these books were really sealed.

As for the other collections, most of them are rare books related to alchemy and spells.

There are also some books on mechanics, firearms, mobile armor, biology, medicine and medicine, and even architecture, which are also good, and most of the knowledge in them is related to alchemy.

After a brief look at the spine, Wang Shui immediately started.

He didn't pick the knowledge that suited him better, but started reading the first book on the first floor of the recent bookshelf, or memorizing it, very quickly.

When the valet Witte returned with two large boxes of materials, the servant in charge of the diet also happened to be setting up dinner.

In just over half an hour, Wang Shui had already gone through all the books in the small study twice, except for those magic books, of course.

When the other servants had left, Witt said:

"Your Excellency Benjamin, these are the vast majority of teaching materials, as for the content of the family spell system and the [Russell Alchemy], there will be a special teacher to teach, and there is no written file."

"The family spell system, and the faction alchemy? Is it necessary for me to learn? I don't think there's anything on the itinerary where you need them. ”

Wang Shui asked questions as he personally inspected the sumptuous food on the table, even though the servant in charge of the meal had just done so in front of him.

"Of course, your study plan is allowed by the Grand Duke, and the [Russell Alchemy] does not restrict people outside the family from learning, but ordinary people need to reach a certain level of knowledge before they can access this knowledge.

The spell system is also, the core part, which requires the bloodline of the Russell family to learn and use, and outside the core, the system is not particularly precious. ”

No, it's still precious, Wang Shui added in his heart.

A system cannot be named if it does not contain the best knowledge of the spells in terms of stability, strength, efficiency, reliability, and simplicity.

"Okay, I see."

Wang Shui accepted Werther's statement, and he still believed that this giant would not play him for the time being, but he could not relax his preparations.

At the next meal, Wang Shui did not speak again, and Witt did not bother.

……

……

The next day, with the insistent help of Werther, Wang Shui changed into a makeshift finished dress obtained by the tailoring team.

Afterwards, he ate breakfast in the living room while listening to Werther's introduction to the day's itinerary.

"Your Excellency Benjamin, the etiquette class and the language class have been removed, but according to the schedule you have drawn up yourself, it will only be busier during the day today, so that the banquet in the evening will not be so necessary, you ......"

"No, it's necessary, Werther."

Wang Shui calmly interrupted Werther's words, quickly cleaned the non-existent stains on his hands, and said seriously:

"Don't worry about the course, the banquet is also necessary. It's not just an invitation from the young locals to me, a member of the Russell family, it's the council of the city, and to us, no, a temptation for me. ”

"Oh? How so? At this time, Werther was still asking, but he was already smiling.

Wang Shui said a little boringly:

"Regarding the political and economic situation of this city, you sent me information, and your information has been implying that they have a good relationship and share weal and woe, I think that it should be their common interest to build and develop this planet, and it is also for the Russell family.

So tonight's banquet, without the nod of the Russell family and the nod of the city council, the invitation will not be delivered to me.

And you, obviously, are an important link, not to mention that you have been reminding me.

After dinner last night, you offered to brief me on the situation, and in your tirade, the banquet that was not important in your mouth was mentioned four times. And you also 'inadvertently' mentioned 6 important minor noble surnames who happened to be the initiators of this banquet.

Don't do these boring tests, I believe in your major, I will look at the important things, but I hope you can mark the real priorities. ”

"As you wish, Your Excellency."

Werther's reply was serious, and he also gave Wang Shui a high score.

In fact, according to Werther's plan, today will end with a harmonious banquet, which will also be the first and last social exercise of Aqua regia.

But Wang Shui gave him a little [Know-it-all] shock.

At night, when Werther drove a flying car to take Wang Shui to the banquet, he always unconsciously looked at the guy in the back seat.

That guy! In front of him, he really learned more than thirty aristocratic courses in one day...... More than 30 doors! Learn them all!

And when it comes to mechanics, fighting, mecha piloting, and alchemy, Wang Shui is even more professional than those teachers.

"Is this the power of the Know-It-Knowers?"

Witt finally couldn't help but ask, and Wang Shui, who was reading in the back seat, replied without raising his head:

"Of course I am, otherwise you think I'm a genius? With the strength and control of the Russell family, the [Knowers] are not so mysterious and rare, right? ”

Of course, Wang Shui was not surprised that the Russell family knew that he was a [Knower], no, it should be said that it was the other party who knew that he was a [Knower] and asked him to come and impersonate.

"His Excellency Benjamin is certainly a genius, and the number of [Knowers] is not as large as you think, and it is not as stable as you think.

As far as I know, most Know-It-Knowers will suppress their emotions, suppress their nature, and hold their limits firmly to ensure mental stability, so their ability to learn will be well below the limit.

A small number of [knowers] who indulge their emotions will generally get out of control because of [restrictions] and become unscrupulous madmen for the sake of knowledge.

And you, Lord Benjamin, you are one of the few [Knowers] who are very suitable for the [Limits] of talent. ”

Wang Shui always felt that this guy was scolding him for arrogance in disguise.

"So, Lord Benjamin, do you want to think about it and join us."

"You guys?"

"Yes, join the Russell family."

Witte did not mention the issue of treatment, and for the Russell family, treatment is never a problem.

And for Wang Shui, this invitation is a bit redundant.

Maybe the Russell family can really help him get out of the control of the system and give him glory and wealth.

But at the same time, losing the identity of the awakened person, Wang Shui also permanently lost the practice room of the fantasy world.

Wealth, status, and power are the confidence of high-level civilized and wealthy families.

But it seems to ...... did not particularly attract Wang Shui, who had his calculations:

With Wang Shui's current knowledge system and combat effectiveness, these things are still in the mirror, and if he is forced to give it to him, he may not be able to hold it.

And if he becomes strong himself, these things are not at his fingertips, at least they will not be particularly ethereal.

If you only count the cultivation of personal ability, the Russell family is really not as good as the dream system.

"I still have basic self-knowledge, Russell, and I don't lack an impostor. And I'm on a planet not far away, almost on call, as long as the price is fair, I can consider any kind of request. ”

Wang Shui refused quite directly, and there was a lot of room left, to be honest, it was indeed a bit faceless.

And just as the valet Werther wanted to ease the atmosphere, a voice came from the car stereo.

"Okay."

It was an old voice, a little lacking in breath, but the momentum of not being angry and arrogant made people's hairs stand on end.

Wang Shui was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Excuse me, who are you?" ”

The other party did not answer, and the communication seemed to have been cut off, Wang Shui looked at Werther, who was almost unable to hold back his smile.

"I think Your Excellency has guessed that, hasn't you?"

Werther's face made the spirit that Wang Shui had been holding on to collapse suddenly.

Depend on! The current Grand Duke Russell!
