Chapter 717: Lanqi begins to study Landry's identity The
bright autumn moon shines into the room through the French windows. Outside the window, red maples are faintly visible in the night.
Lanqi closed his eyes and took a nap in the quiet of the night.
It has been a long journey from the Kingdom of Person, but now we have finally settled down in the Kreming Empire.
No plans or entertainment tonight.
The only thing to do is to confirm the information and prepare for work tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
There is no need to guess or worry about tomorrow for now.
It is very difficult to predict the journey of the Cretan Empire. Perhaps even the goddess of fate has not written the script about fate.
There is only one thing that is certain.
"From now on, I will be acting as Landry's High Priest Loren. One day, I will scare those bastards to death."
Lanqi slowly got up, walked to the window and opened the curtains, feeling the warmth of the moonlight and the soothing of the night breeze.
After learning that Loren was indirectly trapped in the trap of the three gods of war because he was going to the Kingdom of Person to pick him up, Lanqi felt particularly uncomfortable.
Whether it was the third military god, the silky agate Geyat, the seventh military god, the bloody chalcedony Philip, or the eleventh military god, the emerald Simonlo, Lanqi felt that their victory was unfair. If it wasn't three against one, how could Loren lose to them?
Chirp.
Outside the window, a canary was perched on a branch, tilting its head and looking at Lanqi curiously.
"You are welcome to bring your friends to my yard for dinner tomorrow."
Lanqi smiled slightly, waved at it, and closed the curtains again.
No matter where he is, his animal friends will never leave him.
“It’s time to start preparing.”
He took a deep breath, turned and walked towards the study, his eyes becoming determined.
There, mountains of textbooks and materials were waiting for him to study.
It would probably take at least half an hour for Talia and Boss Cat to prepare dinner.
The lazy time before dinner has passed, and he is shouldering the heavy responsibility of writing a new chapter in this unknown land.
He sat down at his desk.
Lanqi picked up the magic tablet that Secretary Naira had given him earlier and checked the information that could be viewed through the professor's faculty permissions.
Not long after searching, his eyes stopped on a photo and personal information on the crystal screen.
There was indeed a first-year student at St. Clement's with the same last name as Landry.
Her name is Elsa Wassington.
She was born in an ancient castle on the border of Niksasende in the northwest of the Cremorne Empire. Her family was once a prominent noble family.
With the change of the times, the Wasington family's fortunes gradually declined. Fortunately, she received a good tutoring in the countryside when she was a child and learned the family's magic skills and magic engineering. At the age of fourteen, she was sent to a girls' boarding school for magic in the capital, Brildha, for further study.
Judging from the photos, she and her brother have indeed inherited the family bloodline. Like her brother, she has beautiful and delicate facial features and a similar temperament, but she is obviously younger than her brother.
Elsa seemed to have lived in the capital, Blildha, for several years without returning to the border. She had studied in the capital since high school, and then was admitted to the Monastery of St. Chrysanthemy with excellent grades.
Judging from the previous groupings and topics, she seemed to be more familiar with civilian students. After all, with the economic conditions of their Wasington family, their accommodation and other aspects were of ordinary standards. It could even be said that the cost of traveling from the capital to their hometown on the border and back was extremely high, which was obviously different from the real capital aristocrats.
The vastness of the territory of the Kremer Empire is unmatched by other kingdoms. Even if it is just a domestic journey, the actual distance may be far greater than the cross-border travel between kingdom alliances.
So much so that Landry hasn't been to the imperial capital for so long.
Seeing this, Lanqi let go of the magic device in his hand and started thinking in his office chair.
The Landry siblings haven't seen each other in a long time.
There shouldn't be too many flaws in my disguise as Landry.
But he is not the real Landry. He has no memories of Landry, and he doesn't know about Landry's past or his childhood in his hometown.
Then in St. Clement's Monastery, it would be best to keep a certain distance from Landry's sister, as between professor and student.
Of course, if I distance myself from her too much, it might arouse the suspicion of Principal Violet.
Just don't talk about the past with her and try to avoid topics in this regard. At worst, Taliah will back you up and be able to tell whether Landry's sister's words are true or false.
Just as Lanqi was thinking about it, there were two knocks on the open door of the study.
"What, thinking about me?"
Talia's voice sounded from the direction of the study entrance.
Lanqi turned around and saw Talia coming to the second floor with a tray and a glass of juice.
She came and placed the juice on Lanqi's table.
"I'm thinking about meeting Landry's sister at school tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I'm afraid I'll need you to help me determine whether it's true or not."
Lanqi looked at the juice and didn't reach out to touch it for a moment. Instead, he turned his eyes to the side and looked at Talia with a little uncertainty.
Talia would bring him tea and water.
Why on earth did he have such a dream?
"In the evening, I don't drink coffee or tea. I drink freshly squeezed mixed juices made from fruits and vegetables."
Talia said.
She saw Lanqi's concentration and hard work.
She felt that in the Kreming Empire, apart from taking care of Lanqi's life, she might not be able to help him in any way most of the time. Lanqi would probably only use her eighth-level power at critical moments.
"oh oh."
Lanqi came back to his senses, picked up the glass and took a sip, his eyes looking out the window facing the table.
The branches and leaves swayed gently in the cool autumn breeze, making a rustling sound.
Occasionally, one or two fiery red maple leaves fall with the wind, casting dark shadows in the moonlight.
As night falls, insects chirp and the sound of a stream can be heard faintly from the distant monastery.
He probably takes care of others most of the time, so he finds the feeling of being taken care of rare.
“Very addictive taste.”
Lanqi put down the glass of juice that he had drunk without realizing it and said to Talia.
It has a sweet taste with just the right amount of sourness and the freshness of vegetables.
Although the other party didn't ask me about the review, it's definitely the right thing to say if I received really great food.
"Then I will follow this recipe next time. The fruits and vegetables produced in the farmland of Saint Clement's Abbey are indeed of very good quality."
Talia's expression didn't change, but her tone became a little lighter.
"Is it different from Hutton's?"
Lanci asked her.
"It's different. I can tell at a glance that the vegetables in Saint Cremona Monastery are very unique. If most of the ingredients that can be bought in the Ikerite store are of blue precious quality, the vegetables and fruits in Saint Cremona Monastery may be of purple rare grade, which will be better for making magical dishes."
Talia analyzed carefully.
When Lanqi saw Talia's serious look when she mentioned food, he subconsciously wanted to laugh, but he thought that it was a good thing that she could eat well. Her happiness was very pure, as if it could infect the people around her.
"what's on your mind?"
Talia noticed Lanqi's expression as he stared at her, but she couldn't tell that he was thinking about anything. It was as if he was simply staring at her in a daze, so she stopped talking and asked him.
"Nothing, I just think that next time in the Shadow World, I can rest assured that you will be taking care of Hyperion, no matter how dangerous it is. She will at least be in a good mood."
Lanci sighed with a smile.
"Of course, I am her favorite, followed by the male mother."
Talia said with a hint of pride.
She also sat down on another chair in the study with some leisure time and started chatting with Lanqi.
Dinner will take a while to be ready, but Boss Cat just needs to keep an eye on the stove.
"By the way, how's your research on Landry's identity?"
Talia suddenly remembered something important, cast a temporary barrier to block detection, and asked Lanqi.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"His carry-on luggage is just what's in his suitcase. I've seen it all. He basically plans to buy new daily necessities when he comes to the capital, Blildha. The only special thing is his magic cards."
Lanqi took out a stack of magic cards and answered.
These are all the magic cards that Landry has.
His own combat capability should be strong, but the Allied Forces' top-level assassin Unity, who he encountered, was too strong. Once a fragile magician of the same level was attacked by her, he would be easily killed instantly.
Landry's best attribute should be [Identification].
Most of the detection magic and insight magic are of the [Identification] attribute. Planai is very good at this, and it is also Planai's secondary attribute. It can often gain a great intelligence advantage in battle, and it is also very convenient to use in scientific research and life professions.
Although Lanqi is not very good at identifying magic, with an eighth-level spirit like Talia, his identification ability is not bad, and he can also simulate Landry's identification magic to a certain extent.
Because Landry is good at acquiring information and is not afraid of intelligence battles or flashy enemies, his magic card choices are basically high-output elemental magic and some defense and recovery magic, taking the route of an all-around mage.
"The cost-effectiveness and flexibility of his card combinations are quite high, but what I didn't expect is that he almost all has purple rare combat magic cards, but he is willing to keep a pink sacred grade communication magic..."
Lanqi pulled out a pink translucent card from the stack of glowing magic cards. This was a sacred-level communication magic that he had never seen before.
【Ultra-long-distance communication program-7】
[Category: Spell Card]
[Grade: Pink Sacred]
【Attribute: Link】
[Level: 6]
[Effect: Compared to general ultra-long-distance communication magic, the communication distance and anti-interference ability are stronger. ]
[Note: The justice of the empire summons everyone to the judgment seat.]
"I've seen a lot of super long-distance communication magic, but this is the first time I've seen pink sacred-level magic."
Talia looked at the magic card from the side and felt that the pink sacred quality communication magic was too luxurious.
Using this card may save you from many transfer stations and directly consume high mana for communication. Correspondingly, it will never be cheap, or its craftsmanship will remain a mystery.
If it could be mass-produced, it would definitely become a special military item, but it was obvious that pink sacred-level items had almost no possibility of mass production.
"This communication magic card actually sounded a message once, and it only became a reminder in my ear, but I was busy all afternoon and ignored this communication card."
After Lanqi disguised himself as Landry, he immediately tied up his key magic cards to avoid any omissions.
This card is undoubtedly the most important core.
In addition to instant communication, communication magic cards can also send messages and leave messages.
Now I finally have the space to study this card with Talia.
"Let's take a look."
Talia said.
Lanqi nodded and activated the magic card with a touch of his fingertips.
Breathing pink ripples began to ripple on the translucent card, and information gradually flowed into their minds.
【Real (No. 2): Have you arrived in Brillda? 】
Just one piece of information like this appeared before their eyes, visible only to them.
Lanqi & Talia: “?”
They both looked at each other, neither understanding what this meant.
As Talia inherited the characteristics of a great poet, it was normal for her to share Lanqi's magic cards. What puzzled her was the content of the message that Landry received.
If she remembered correctly, Landry had told Lankey in the train compartment that he had no acquaintances in Blildha, the capital of the Empire.
Talia was also very sure that this was the truth because she was listening to Lanqi.
But according to this news, Landry had not yet arrived in the capital, Blildha, when a mysterious contact asked him questions.
"He wouldn't come to Brillda to hide something, would he?"
Talia narrowed her eyes and asked Lanqi.
"I'm not coming."
Lanci shook his head.
Now they both felt that something was wrong with Landry! It seemed that Landry Wassington had more secrets than they had imagined, but Landry's disguise was just as sophisticated, so they hadn't seen it before! This picked-up identity was not ordinary.
Compared to the Demon King's City special envoy at the Purgatory Corridor Academy, Landry has many more secrets and may even be more dangerous.
Lanqi quickly checked the contact information and found no other notes.
"Try to send him a reply message."
Talia also checked the communication magic card for Ranchi to make sure there was no other hidden information in it, and said.
"I'll try."
Lanqi nodded, began to type the message, and then sent it out.
【Justice (No. 7): Just arrived.】
This information appeared on the communication magic card.
At this point, Lanqi and Talia have made a preliminary confirmation of one thing.
In Landry's mysterious communication magic card, the contact person was not marked with a real name, only a title.
Landry's title is "Justice", while the person he is talking to is called "Truth".
If you look closely, you can see that this communication magic card can also add notes to contacts. "No. 2" seems to be the default note for "real", and Landry did not modify it.
And they finally understood what the suffix "-7" at the end of Landry's [Ultra-Long-Distance Communication Program] meant.
