408. Do you think he can help me?
Valdés, this guy is a little too serious, right? It feels like he's going to have a hard time doing this, right?
Lloyd looked at Valdés's serious works and couldn't help but complain in his heart.
If Professor Toledo's workshop is like a toy store with all kinds of interesting and practical works; Valdés's workshop, then, is a boring hardware store, with a lot of works, but they are all decent things.
Therefore, even if they are both craftsmen, there is still a big difference in mentality between the two......
Valdés could more or less sense Lloyd's 'dislike', so he took the initiative to ask:
"You seem to have a bit of a ...... here for me Well...... Opinion? ”
Before Lloyd could answer, Lindsay, who participated in the conversation, preemptively said:
"Then there must be an opinion, right? You're old, shabby, small, dirty, you don't know what to keep guarding? Isn't it good to stay right in our house? Will my father and I treat you badly? ”
"You ......"
Valdés originally wanted to curse a little, but when the words came to his lips, he still sighed and forcibly changed his words:
"Alas...... Forget it, I owe you enough. ”
"So what? No one wants you to pay it back, but I want to be a nobleman, and I must not be stingy. ”
Lloyd couldn't help but smile as he listened to the two of them arguing on the side.
When he was eating before, he learned about the origin of these two guys, but there was no earth-shattering love and hatred.
In fact, when Valdés's father was on the verge of closure due to poor management, and he couldn't repay the bank loan, Master Linde, who was supposed to be a competitor, reached out to him, gave him a lucrative job, and helped pay the loan in advance, so that his family's ancestral workshop would not be sold by the bank.
After that, Valdés's father worked hard for Master Linde, which was quite appreciated, and he also accepted Valdés as an apprentice, and became childhood playmates with Lindsay.
But his ancestral workshop still couldn't be left behind, so after paying off the loan he had helped pay before, Valdés still returned to his own workshop, but he did not cut off contact with his master, the two sides often cooperated, and Lindlindsey father and son often introduced him to the business to help his workshop gradually get on the right track.
So don't look at Lindsay, this guy loves to brag and show off, and he always wants to become a nobleman, but he is not bad, he is very righteous, and he still has the temperament of a leader in the rivers and lakes.
I guess I learned this from his father, Linde, right? This old master didn't have good grades in the academy back then, but he maintained a good friendship with a strong man like the bald Bartolo, and after he came out, he could become the core figure of the alumni association, so he naturally had a few brushes.
So Lloyd thought about it for a while, and took the initiative to propose:
"Lindsay, if you're okay tomorrow during the day, will you come with us to the Eternal City?"
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
Both Valdés and Lindsay were surprised by Lloyd's claim.
It's just that I don't understand why I call this unreliable guy; One is that you don't know what to do in the Eternal City?
In fact, Lloyd's idea is also very simple, to find someone, the more people the better, not to mention that he doesn't have too much time to spend over there, and he has to return at night to participate in the material processing activities here, which can be said to be very busy.
And this Lindsay, although it is described as very unreliable in Valdés's mouth, Lloyd observed with the naked eye that this person is quite hot in terms of speech and demeanor and treatment of people, and is better than Lloyd and Valdés in terms of aspects.
Therefore, it should be much more convenient to call him, such as contacting and talking to people, and you can rest assured that he will deal with it.
However, Lloyd didn't explain much, just smiled, nodded at Valdés, and motioned for him to explain the situation.
So after a few simple words, Lindsay immediately slapped her face and said with great interest:
"So you're going to help find your friends? You've got the right person, it's my forte! ”
After that, he hurriedly wanted to book a ticket for the airship, and continued to say:
"It's up to me, and for me, who aspires to be a nobleman, it's my code of conduct to help my friends solve their problems."
It can only be said that this guy's understanding of the aristocracy basically comes from the opera romance book, in which the image of the aristocracy must have been greatly beautified, which directly led to a slight deviation in his image concept of 'aristocracy'......
But as far as Lloyd himself is concerned, the declining aristocracy he has come into contact with today is not bad, right? Whether it is the gentle and beautiful Miss Wei Ya or the old and young Olga, they are very pleasant to get along with.
Of course, there must be some gentlemen among them, and naturally there are ruthless and ruthless characters like Wei Ya's father.
Since the three of them 'hit it off', they briefly discussed tomorrow's itinerary and made an appointment to leave tomorrow morning, and Lloyd declined the luxury hotel arranged by Lindsay, saying that he wanted to go back to the college.
So Valdés saw Lloyd open the portal for the first time, and for a moment he was stunned in place, speechless for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Lindsay on the side stabbed him with his arm, and asked in a low voice:
"Hello? You don't want Lloyd to go crazy with you, do you? ”
Valdés nodded, then asked rhetorically:
"Do you think he can help me?"
"Well...... I think he must be able to help you, when I was in the academy, I also came into contact with the top students of the space department, I saw them open the portal, I had to ink for a long time, slowly, not as skillful and fluent as Lloyd, I really deserve to be the youngest lecturer in the space department......"
Lindsay now praised behind her back, and then said:
"But I don't think he's going to help you, right? Although I feel that he is very enthusiastic and righteous, he should be the kind of person who likes to help the weak, and he is very aristocratic...... But that thing you're going to do is just crazy! ”
As he spoke, he shook his head again and again, and continued to add:
"Don't look at him being willing to go to the Eternal City for another friend, but you ...... But when it comes to a saint, this nature is different...... So you still listen to my advice and give up?
It's just a family heirloom, what's the big deal? You don't aspire to become a nobleman like me, and you don't even have a woman around you, who will you pass it on to when you find the family heirloom? ”
Valdés could only smile wryly at his friend's kind persuasion, but shook his head.
"It's not a matter of heirlooms, it's a statement, a fairness, an explanation, and a regret, just as you always regret that you are not a nobleman."
Lindsay couldn't help revealing a bitter gourd face that was even more ugly than Valdés, patted him on the shoulder, and asked:
"Alas...... Since you won't change your mind, you can only find a way to convince Lloyd to help, but what can you come up with to get the family to help? ”
"I don't know...... Haven't figured it out yet. ”
……………………
On Lloyd's side, after returning to the academy, he first checked the time of the present world, there are still 10 hours before tomorrow morning's departure, which means that he can stay in the academy for four days, and he can use this time to gnaw on most of the tome, as well as supplement the [detachment] progress of the [Twisted] department, and then earn some people for Professor Toledo's side.
So he took out the student handbook first and found the recruitment announcement he had posted with an overly conservative title.
The result was a little surprising to him, although there were not many people who signed up below, but it was not unpopular, much better than Lloyd's previous expectations.
It seems that there is no shortage of down-to-earth people in the Mitzkatock Asylum who are willing to spend time on long-term projects.
So Lloyd went to the presiding judge again, met again with the three candidates selected by the presiding judge, and after a brief interview, sent the person to Professor Toledo.
It feels like I'm recommending Krypton mobile games......
After dealing with this matter, Lloyd entered an intense and exciting study life, except for the occasional conversation with Hiltina and brushing up on the student handbook, basically chewing books and [meeting the sage]
Hiltina with rationality helped to open a small stove, and the effect of [Audience with the Sage] was of course very good, and she obtained a lot of knowledge fragments of the [Distortion] system.
However, the efficiency of the overall progress is not very fast, and the progress of [detachment] is only just over forty percent.
Hiltina explained that this was because going from the fourth to the fifth order was a very critical one, involving various levels of ascension, so it was normal to slow down.
"You don't have to be in such a hurry, I'm afraid that you will suddenly be better than me one day, and then bully me in turn, so don't I have no room for resistance? Can I only let you do whatever you want? ”
Hiltina also comforted half-jokingly, half-seriously.
However, slow progress is not all bad, and there is more time to stabilize the gains, and this madness is worth a lot more.
In the past three days, Lloyd has risen by another 10 levels through various means, and the attribute points have been distributed one after another and evenly.
[User: Lloyd]
[Status: Normal]
[Madness Value: 3879/10000, Upper Limit: 640000]
[Rationality: 640]
[Spiritual Power: 640]
[Inspiration: 330]
[Cognition:635]
[System: Distort LV4, Reject LV3, Embody LV1]
This time, I didn't even forget the [inspiration], so it was really evenly distributed, so that everyone was improved, and everyone had a bright future!
So, it was about to dawn on the other side of the world, and it was time for Lloyd to prepare for the Eternal City.
As for why he was willing to look for Jenkins, on the one hand, it was because he had helped him last time he rescued Elolo;
On the other hand, it is because he happens to know about this and happens to have this ability, so he will help it.
Otherwise, even acquaintances who know will not help when they are in trouble, what can they do to act as the sage who protects the party?
