Chapter 17: Count Raymond (Please read)
There is no doubt that Count Raymond's arrival made Roy uneasy.
As a result, I just couldn’t get into the state of cultivation today. My mind was full of all kinds of thoughts and distractions.
Fortunately, he only stopped for half an hour, sat there, squinting his eyes and thinking carefully.
Whether Roy admits it or not, Count Raymond is his greatest support now.
Although he was not given a clear identity and the illegitimate child could not be brought to the public, he was not treated unfairly in other aspects.
However, in Luo Yi's original memory, he was actually mostly afraid of this person. They hardly spoke to each other, let alone understood each other.
Naturally, he couldn't provide Luo Yi with any useful information. Only that hint of majesty that he couldn't look directly at even affected him now.
However, Luo Yi was no longer the Luo Yi of the past. After half an hour of deep thought, he anticipated many situations and gradually calmed down.
When he practiced again, he was more focused and serious.
He didn't like this feeling of being helpless and anxious at all. He needed the power to control his own destiny.
Perhaps because of his firm belief, the results of his practice this morning were even more gratifying.
He could even vaguely feel the beating of the seed of life in his heart.
It seems to be consistent with the frequency of the heartbeat, so that with every beat, endless power flows to the limbs.
As for the reflection on the attribute panel, the cultivation progress has increased by fifteen points.
【Cheetah Breathing Level 2 (35/100)】
Even in novels from this world, few authors would dare to write about this speed of progress.
In comparison, Luo Yi spent a lot of time and energy on basic meditation, but the effect cannot be said to be almost non-existent, at most there was no progress at all.
He also tried to understand the content by himself, find the appropriate logic, and then use the "auxiliary learning module".
It’s a pity that what you think is just what you think. It doesn’t conform to the rules of logic and cannot be constructed.
In the afternoon, Luo Yi went to the library again. This time, he specifically looked for books on aristocratic genealogy and the history of aristocratic development to scan.
The original body had studied heraldry, so he could understand how confusing the genealogy of the nobility was, and it was not easy to sort it out.
This time, Loy mainly looked at the aristocratic history of the Norman Duchy and the aristocratic circles of Auckland City, thinking about the interests involved.
Although books are time-sensitive and do not represent the current situation, he should at least know what they are and where they come from.
Roy absolutely did not believe that Count Raymond came because of him, and it was hard to say whether the letter he sent had reached the other party.
Therefore, there must be some reason why this Earl ran away to other countries!
After flipping through several books, picking a place, and starting the 'auxiliary learning module' to digest it, Luo Yi already had a relatively complete outline in his mind and some guesses.
——
As the autumn sun sets, the sunlight gradually dims.
When the bell rang again, Luo Yi walked out of the magic academy with light steps.
At a glance, I saw the luxurious carriage belonging to Count Raymond parked on the side of the road. Many people were coming and going, and they looked at it, some with curiosity, some with desire.
If Luo Yi were to explain, carriages are actually divided into different grades, just like cars in previous lives. Carriages worth tens of thousands are just for transportation, those worth millions can show one's status, and those worth tens of millions can make a big splash in the streets.
The luxurious carriages of the nobles are almost all unique custom-made, and they represent the nobles themselves when they go out.
Luo Yi himself is not low-key. After all, his independent style of doing things has made him somewhat famous.
But all this was nothing compared to the sensation caused by him getting on the carriage.
Oliveira sat quietly in the carriage.
His lean body stood straight, with a long sword placed across his knees. It seemed as if a huge force was surging in his body, so much so that when Luo Yi entered the carriage, he even felt suffocated.
As a third-level wind swordsman, he can already release his fighting spirit. The destructive power cannot be described as considerable, but it is a new height of human combat power.
If he were allowed to attack without scruples, even if there were hundreds of people like Luo Yi, it would only be a matter of wasting his time and fighting spirit.
As for Butler Hoover, he seemed to have other things to do and was not in the carriage.
Seeing Luo Yi coming up, Oliveira slowly opened his eyes and nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting.
Don't think he is aloof. He only nodded because Luo Yi is familiar with him. Otherwise, he would ignore her.
The carriage started, and the driver, who was also an experienced driver, casually flicked the whip and the carriage ran at a steady and fast speed.
Luo Yi hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: "Teacher Oliveira, may I ask why the Earl is here?"
Oliveira's cold and hard face frowned slightly, and he uttered a few words: "You shouldn't ask, I can't say."
Luo Yi said: "I know, I know, but the Earl came so suddenly this time that I am unsure.
Of course, you don't have to tell me the details. I'm just making a guess. Just nod your head."
Oliveira's brow furrowed even more tightly, but before he could react, Keluoyi immediately asked, "My Lord, have you come here at the invitation of the Habsburg Empire?"
At that moment, he saw the surprise on Oliveira's face and his pupils dilated slightly.
Even though the expression was very slight given Oliveira's dead face, it still couldn't escape the scan of 'Deep Blue'.
"Okay, okay, I think I have an idea."
"I haven't seen you for a few months, little Luo Yi. I almost don't recognize you anymore." Oliveira rarely spoke and said a series of words:
Luo Yi also knew that he was showing off too much, so he smiled shyly and said, "After leaving Ferro Town and making a living on my own, I met more people and things, and I will definitely grow."
After a pause, he added, “After all, the people outside aren’t as kind as the residents of Ferro Town!”
Oliveira was silent, not knowing what he remembered, but he actually agreed.
After leaving the city, the carriage sped up faster and faster, and finally arrived at Provence Manor before the autumn sun set.
Luo Yi is very familiar with this place, after all, he has lived here for more than two months.
But now, in addition to the ones he was familiar with, there were many more people in the Provence Manor.
The elite guards of the Raymond family are all powerful elite swordsmen and knights, as well as maids, cooks, valets, coachmen, etc. who travel with them...
At a glance, Luo Yi knew that it was a team of at least a hundred people, and on the second floor of the manor, bright lights were rarely lit.
From time to time, a knight would walk out of the room, mount his horse, and disappear into the evening sunset.
These were obviously messengers, and, one after another, in a very short time, he saw three figures leaving.
Roy got off the carriage and was led upstairs by Butler Hoover into the Earl's study.
The overall style of the Provence manor is simple and seems very plain, except for the earl's private room, which is the most luxurious.
From large furniture to small lamps and ornaments, each one is more exquisite than the other. There are carpets on the floor and various processed animal heads hanging on the walls.
Although Luo Yi couldn't appreciate this kind of aesthetic, seeing half animal heads hanging there would scare him half to death if he suddenly woke up in the middle of the night.
But for the nobles of the Old World, this is a symbol of bravery. The manors in Provence are ordinary, and the ones hanging on the walls are just deer heads, horse heads and the like.
A true aristocratic castle, the favorite thing is the Warcraft specimens.
Luo Yi stood aside and raised his eyes slightly, and saw a man with gray hair, a strong physique, and a lion-like body busy behind the desk.
His thick fingers held a quill pen that looked slender, dipped it in ink, and wrote beautiful cursive characters.
After finishing writing, he dried the ink, folded it and put it in an envelope.
Then, he took the melted gold paint from the small stove beside him, dripped it on the surface of the envelope, took out the ring and pressed it on.
When the ring was removed, a lion head logo appeared on the gold paint, which was the emblem of the Raymond family.
The messenger beside him stepped forward, took the letter, backed up to the door, turned around and left.
After a while, Luo Yi heard the sound of people coming down the stairs, the neighing of horses, and the sound of horse hooves in the distance.
Count Raymond seemed a little tired. He rubbed his brows, then looked up and said to Roy, "How have you been at the Philante School of Magic recently?"
Luo Yi said honestly: "It's very good and very fulfilling!"
"I'd really like to hear your opinion on the magical machinery."
PS: The new book is launched, and it is most important to follow it. I beg you for help!
Anyway, this person is the protagonist's biggest backer in the early stages...
