After dinner, Xia Yu returned to his room, took off his suit and hung it up, then changed into a loose T-shirt and shorts.
Glancing out the window, I saw the bright moonlight pouring down on the grassland, dotted with stars all around.
This piqued Xia Yu's interest. He picked up the camera and walked to the open window. He grabbed the window frame with his right hand and exerted force. Then he flipped onto the roof of the train, as light as a cheetah.
There are usually such scenes in action movies, but being able to flip out with one hand is really amazing. Xia Yu's arms have not been trained to the level of Qilin arms, and he can do such a move only because of the bonus of the Buff.
The King of the Grassland not only enhances Xia Yu's affinity with animals, but also his physical strength and agility.
Simply open the "Me" interface of the system and you can see the changes.
"Strength 7.4 (+10), Agility 7.0 (+10), Spirit 7.8 (+10)"
The original values of strength, agility and essence have increased due to long-term exercise and a healthy lifestyle, but now each has been increased by 10 attribute points, completely exceeding the limits of human beings.
In fact, such numerical changes have occurred before when the Aquaman Buff was added. The improved physical attributes are enough for Xia Yu to run a marathon under the sea and withstand the pressure of hundreds or thousands of atmospheres.
Now it is the change brought about by the King of the Grassland Buff. The addition of 10 to all attributes and the bonus of affinity with grassland animals are enough for him to roam the grassland. Even if he cannot kill African elephants with one punch, he can order them to carry him on their backs to start wars and trample on them.
However, the buff has a time limit and will become invalid after the time limit is exceeded. There are also restrictions on where it can be used.
The Sea King Buff is only effective in the sea, and the Grassland King Buff can only be activated in the grassland, no matter whether you are in the African grassland, the Outer Mongolia grassland, or the green grassland.
Taking out a handkerchief and wiping the roof of the car clean, Xia Yu lay down and looked up at the starry sky.
He had only seen such a clear sky at sea in Sanya. Thousands of stars were arranged in a disorderly yet orderly manner in the galaxy, conveying the vastness of the universe and the insignificance of human beings.
On the scale of the universe, no matter how powerful a person is, he will be boring. But this does not mean that a true rich person will be bound by the earth.
Maybe when he becomes rich enough to rival a country, he can invest some money in the aerospace industry for fun. If he can't wait, I heard that there will be a commercial space program soon, the kind that sells tickets to the outside world.
No matter how much it costs, Xia Yu can definitely afford a ticket, and two buffs have already appeared in the three categories of sea, land and air. No one knows what other cool things the system will do.
Under the starry sky, Xia Yu lay on the roof of the carriage and thought a lot. Some of them were wild thoughts, but some had the possibility of coming true. He was still very optimistic about the future.
After taking a few nice photos, Xia Yu went back to his room, took a quick shower and went to bed.
There was no conversation that night, and the journey over the next few days was very interesting.
Xia Yuman was running around on the train, while Old Xia met a foreign friend, who was said to be a count.
The nobility is a very important part of Western history. Today, social development has taken back the rights of the nobility, but retained the titles of the nobility. Constitutional monarchies with royal inheritance basically have nobility, and this count is from the Netherlands.
It was hard for Xia Yu to imagine how the two of them could chat in English with a Dutch accent and a Chinese accent, but that's what happened. The old count even invited Old Xia to the cigar bar to smoke cigars together, which was more fashionable than Xia Yu.
Compared to smoking, cigars that don't require lung smoking appear to be healthier.
Xia Yu didn't know whether this was true or not, but in the West, cigars were a lifestyle, favored by both old-school aristocrats and rising elites.
"Xia, if you have the chance, you must bring your wife and son to the Netherlands and visit my castle."
The count took a puff of his cigar and spoke while puffing out smoke.
"I really like your Chinese culture, but unfortunately I have a son, so I can only introduce your son to my niece."
"Okay, okay. I'll definitely come visit you when I have the chance. But if you like our culture, you can come directly to China. I'll show you around then."
Old Xia didn't expect that foreigners were so keen on matchmaking, so he had to send an invitation in return. After all, he had no plans to find a foreign daughter-in-law for the time being, even if she was a noble.
In fact, they can talk together because of their work. Lao Xia is in the construction industry, and the old earl is an architect. Naturally, they have something to talk about.
When Xia Yu went to the cigar bar to find Lao Xia, they happened to be talking about the modern reconstruction of the Earl's castle.
There are countless castles and manors in the West, but unfortunately, due to the high cost of repairs, many descendants of nobles are unable to pay and can only choose to give up inheritance. Xia Yu has seen many such adventure videos on Bilibili before.
Architect is still a relatively profitable profession, so the old earl has spare money to renovate his family castle.
Upon hearing this, Xia Yu suddenly became interested. He had listened to a lot of Western fairy tales when he was a child, so he naturally had no resistance to castles and manors.
If he had money, he would like to buy a house in Europe where he could live during skiing vacations.
As for why it was not built in China, or whether it was because he was worshipping foreign things, Xia Yu had no idea.
Someone once built a copycat White House in China, but the photos looked so awkward. However, the old villas in Shanghai are surprisingly suitable for China because of the times and culture.
But in Xia Yu's heart, the old villa can't compare to the big castle. Who doesn't have the dream of a prince saving a princess?
"Kid, would you like one too?"
A cigar was handed to Xia Yu. To be honest, the old earl looked very much like an old smoker in China. Xia Yu did not refuse and took it after thanking him.
This was his first time smoking a cigar. He took off the cap, lit it, took a deep breath, and exhaled a cloud of smoke.
The taste of tobacco and the feeling of nicotine entering the body through the mouth made Xia Yu feel very wonderful.
Sure enough, rich people have many tricks.
Xia Yu, smoking a cigar, also joined the conversation. It was actually quite interesting to chat with foreigners. The old earl was still trying to promote his niece, which reminded him of several foreign sisters he had known before.
Several of them are supposed to graduate and return home at the end of this semester, and I don’t know what their current situation is.
There are many passers-by in life, and there are always a few who will leave a deeper impression. I will think of them at this time, but passers-by are just passers-by after all, not even wings. All Xia Yu can do is wish them good luck.
The grassland outside the window slowly receded and the land began to become barren until the train stopped in Kimberley.
This is a city in the Cape Province of South Africa. It is not the Chinese diamond brand, but it is very famous internationally because of its rich diamond mineral resources.
As part of their itinerary, they will stop in Kimberley for a visit.
