Chapter 185 183: Background, Conquer (Please subscribe, please vote)
It seems that when doing something secretive, one always prefers to do it at night!
The person Luo Yi chose to meet at this time was also on this almost dark and moonless night.
However, there are more street lights in the city of Auxerre, and there are even more carriages coming and going. Although they are ordinary carriages, they are really galloping on the road in broad daylight.
Luo Yi looked out of the car with great interest, at the shadowy buildings of Auxerre City, as well as the carriages and pedestrians coming and going, as if he was looking at an exotic scene.
Inside the carriage, the pretty girl Eva sat beside him, maintaining a perfect aristocratic posture, but her eyes were a little calm.
There was also Oliveira, who was sitting there with his eyes closed, as if he was practicing, or simply resting his eyes.
They walked along the streets surrounding the mountain, and then went up until they reached a relatively remote place.
This place can be considered as a secluded place, but it is the wealthy area of Auxerre City.
The buildings inside are all manors of various sizes, and the density is much sparser than in the city. Many manors are bustling with people, and it is obvious that banquets are being held.
However, the manor that Luo Yi and his friends entered seemed very quiet.
After Eva appeared, the gate opened directly and the carriage drove straight in and stopped at the gate of the manor.
Loy led Oliveira out of the carriage and walked inside. Along the way, not even a servant could be seen. However, there were many candles, lighting up the road brightly.
Eva led the way, but she didn't go through the main door. Instead, she entered from the side, went up to the second floor, turned left and right, and arrived in front of a study.
Beep beep beep!
There was a knock on the door, and an old voice said, "Come in!"
With a creak, the door opened automatically. Eva walked in first, followed by Luo Yi.
However, the moment he walked into the study, he felt something different.
It felt like being squeezed into a bubble.
Before Loy could react, Oliveira's figure was already blocking his way, his expression solemn, one hand on the hilt of the sword, and the other hand had reached behind him, grasping the handle of the gun.
He stared intently at the three people in front of him, but whispered calmly: "Master, if a fight breaks out, run away immediately. Run away regardless of the consequences. Don't hesitate at all."
Roy put one hand on Oliveira's shoulder, knowing clearly that he was not joking.
At this time, Oliveira was ready to fight with all his might.
The only one who could make him so cautious was naturally a fourth-order natural disaster expert.
At this moment, there were three people gathered in this small study.
Luo Yi suddenly understood who these people were and why Grand Duchess Aphra wanted him to meet them.
It now becomes clearer why with the support of these three people, half of the flower prize is secured.
He patted Oliveira on the shoulder, took a sideways step, and walked in front of the crowd.
He not only saw everyone clearly, but also allowed everyone to see him clearly.
Three people, two men and one woman!
The woman was a magician, wearing a light blue magic robe, a pair of glasses on her nose, and holding a thick magic book in her hands.
Even when Luo Yi entered, she seemed to be immersed in the world of magic and didn't even raise her head.
She looked very young, with no spots on her exposed skin and her hair was shiny black.
But when she sat there, she gave people a feeling of elegance, tranquility and the eternity of time.
The most important thing is that there are four pentagram rings on her chest and robe, one inside another, and inside, there is a rippling water wave.
That meant she was a fourth-tier Scourge Mage, skilled in water magic.
Among the other two, one was tall and strong, with arms thicker than an average person's thighs, and emanating strength that was visible to the naked eye.
Obviously, with this size and this mountain-like aura, he must be a fourth-level knight.
What was strange was that his skin was bluish-gray in color and even shone with a metallic luster.
Of course, although he gives people a sense of strong power, he is already quite old.
The gray hair and deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes showed that he had lived a long time in this world.
As for the last one, he was dressed in a typical swordsman outfit.
He is tall and slender, with ordinary looks, but he has elegant manners and an indescribable calm confidence.
He held a long sword in his hand, which was wider than a rapier and longer than a rapier. The blade was slightly curved and hung at his waist.
His hand was on the hilt of the sword, with his fingers clearly separated, as if he could draw the sword at any time.
However, his complexion did not look good, appearing a little pale, and his whole body was stained with the smell of blood and potion, as if his injuries had not yet healed.
His eyes swept across Luo Yi, then fixed on Oliveira. He smiled and said, "Oliveira, what's wrong? It's been so long since we last met, and you don't recognize me?"
Oliveira's expression became serious, and he pursed his lips before saying, "Student, greetings to Teacher Otto."
"You don't believe me?"
"In this situation, I have a duty to protect you. Who dares to trust me?"
"Your personality hasn't changed at all!"
Otto laughed dumbly and said unhappily, "I just don't believe it. Didn't you notice a few days ago that it was me who blocked Hurricane Higgins from the Carlisle family?"
Oliveira argued: "But you didn't show up!"
"No one knows what the future holds for the Raymond family. What should I say now that I've shown up?"
"As for the person behind you, whether he can shoulder the burden of the family and is worthy of our trust is still a matter of debate.
So why should I show up?"
Oliveira pursed his lips. He was not good at speaking, and now he didn't know what to say.
Luo Yi patted his shoulder and said, "Everyone, Luo Yi Roy Fitz, the illegitimate son of the Raymond family, greets you here."
"I don't know, can we get to know each other first?"
This time, it was Eva who took over the conversation. She said, "Let me introduce you."
She faced the swordsman, bowed slightly, and said, "This one is a fourth-level Swift Wind Swordsman. He has awakened fire-type Dou Qi and is known as the 'Flame Sword Saint'. His name is Lord Otto."
Luo Yi bowed slightly to this person and saluted as a greeting.
This Otto didn't have a bad temper and even smiled and nodded.
Eva looked at the mid-stage knight and said, "This one is a fourth-level Berserker Knight. He has awakened Earth-type Dou Qi and has cultivated special secret techniques. He is the Iron Knight, His Excellency Phil Zeke."
The deep blue seemed to be triggered, and information flashed immediately, and Luo Yi knew it.
This Iron Knight was actually the previous Grand Knight of the Raymond family and the deputy leader of the family knights.
The leader is Count Raymond, and he, the deputy leader, is the one who truly holds the power. Within the family, almost all the knights were trained by him or received his instruction.
Luo Yi naturally had nothing to say about this person. He bowed and saluted, behaving very appropriately.
But this one was very arrogant, with his head slightly raised, as if he was greeting, but also as if he didn't care.
Eva then introduced the last person.
"This is Ms. Palacios, a fourth-level elemental mage. She is best at water magic. She is stationed at the westernmost port of the earldom all year round, expelling various sea beasts for the Raymond family.
In addition, Ms. Palacios is also a rare potion master who can brew many rare potions."
"The reason why the Raymond family is so attractive to geniuses is because Ms. Palacios's potions can provide what they need for cultivation."
It was not until this moment that the lady raised her head slightly and exchanged glances with Luo Yi as a greeting.
After the introductions were completed, Eva looked at Luo Yi and said, "Master Luo Yi, you should know without me saying anything. These three are the powerful people behind the Raymond family."
After a pause, she continued, “In fact, the Raymond family originally supported five fourth-level experts.
This number is unmatched by the four marquis families, and is also the source of pride for the Raymond family."
"However, during that battle, two fourth-level warriors were in the Raymond family castle and never showed up again."
Having said that, the three powerful natural disaster masters looked unhappy.
At this moment, before Loyi could speak, Iron Knight Phil Zeke said, "Grand Duke Aphra strongly requested that we meet you. She has great confidence in you.
However, we do not trust you and do not believe you can handle the current complex situation."
"So, we also want to meet you and ask you some questions."
Luo Yi nodded slightly and said, "Excuse me?"
Flame Sword Saint Otto spoke up, "If you were Earl Raymond, how would you deal with that 'man-made disaster'?"
This is a very difficult question to answer, because Luo Yi doesn't know the attitudes of the three people.
That 'man-made disaster' was a calamity that even the fourth-level strongmen could not escape. No one knew whether they wanted to be involved in it again.
Keluo Yi hesitated for a moment, then immediately said: “I will let it go openly, investigate secretly, determine who the enemy is, and then accumulate strength.
When I truly have the ability, I will take revenge and repay grievances."
"The blood of the Raymond family cannot be shed in vain. Even if I don't have the chance in this lifetime, it must be passed on to the next generation."
Otto nodded slightly and stopped talking. Ms. Palacios said, "I want to know, if you become the count, will you still abide by the contract between Karl and us?
Will the supplies we need and magical materials be reduced?"
Luo Yi grinned: "Money is not a big deal! What my father promised you, I will only give you more, not less."
"Then I'll have no problem."
Finally, it was the Iron Knight Phil Zek who spoke. He took a step forward, and his fierce momentum seemed to rush towards Loy like a tide.
He asked, “Why do you do that?
Why do you think you can win the nobles' meeting? Why do you think you can lead the Raymond family out of this predicament?"
"You are just a twenty-year-old boy. Have you ever experienced such a storm?"
"Why should you make us believe you?"
This is the most important question!
Ke Luoyi was not afraid at all. He walked out and faced the three people. He took a step forward, opened his five fingers, and the Holy Artifact Proverbs Ring appeared in his hand.
"Because I am the heir chosen by Count Raymond himself, what right do those random people have to compete with me?"
The Iron Knight was stunned, his eyes filled with shock, but he still said, "That's not enough!"
"What about adding this?"
Luo Yi took another step forward, his violent heartbeat like a drum, the roar echoing throughout the room.
If it weren't for the magic blocking, the whole manor might have heard it.
But because of the obstruction, the sound echoed and became more intense!
All around Luo Yi, circles of air ripples spread outwards, as if a terrifying giant beast had opened its eyes, and the pressure from the superior life form was too great to look directly at.
At this moment, even the powerful Calamity Warriors were stunned, and Ms. Palacios stood up directly.
She almost gritted her teeth and spat out four words: "Secret Sacred Technique?!"
Luo Yi didn't stop and took another step forward, directly in front of the Iron Knight.
His figure was not as tall and majestic as the Iron Knight, so he could only look up at the other party, but there was no awe for the fourth-level strong man in his eyes.
"If that's not enough, how about this?"
The golden-red fighting spirit rose, and the violently beating heart was stimulated by the fighting spirit. A strange substance was secreted and flowed throughout the body along the blood.
Thus, infinite courage and fearlessness grew and even spread outward, infecting everyone.
The Iron Knight felt his voice dry, but he still uttered a loud voice: "Is this the Lion King?"
Luo Yi asked: "I have these capitals, do you think it is enough? Or not?"
At this moment, Luo Yi was clearly only a second-level natural disaster, but these fourth-level natural disasters only thought that it was a high and mighty king asking them questions.
At this moment, the Iron Knight finally took a step back, knelt on one knee, lowered his proud head, and held his sword in his big hands and handed it to Loy.
"Iron Knight Phil Zeke, I am willing to fight for the Lion King with my sword, and be forever loyal!"
Luo Yi grasped the knight's sword and looked at the Fire Sword Saint who was kneeling on one knee and the Great Magician who bowed slightly.
He said, "In that case, I will lead you to restore the glory of the Lion King!"
