Chapter 126 Pen Drawing Vera and the aftermath of that night
Vera has not noticed this subtle change.
Lorient left from the third floor, and now she was alone on the third floor for the time being.
She flipped through the pen drawings on the canvas.
When he reached the bottom picture, he stopped.
The last painting depicts two women, one of whom looks like Vera, but her face is younger and her temperament is slightly different. The left and right eyes of Vera in the painting have different looks. Look. It's a little weird up there.
The other woman is a long-haired beauty with loose hair.
Like Vera, she looks like a tall royal sister.
The two seem to have a good relationship and stick together.
It's just that compared to Vera's temperament, the other party is quite calm, while Vera is quite arrogant and bold.
The opponent's left eye and right eye are also slightly different. The left eye is somewhat calm, while the right eye is more indifferent.
"Liana, Liana, why do you have to stay in the past years...Why don't you leave the strange and evil realm of the Snow Secret Realm?...Even though it is our hometown, what's the point of staying there? What’s the meaning?… What do we do and don’t do about the weirdness there? It will eventually return to normal, and our hometown will still come back…” “Why should we stay
in the past years…”
Vera stretched out her hand on the paper He stroked the face of the portrait named Liana.
Her eyes were a little nostalgic and a little puzzled, and after a long time, she let out a long sigh.
"The current actions of the Evil Thief Cult must be related to this period of time..."
Vera pondered for a moment and put down the pages she had opened.
The humanoid outline painting at the top of the canvas appeared in front of Vera again.
Vera was about to get up, but when she saw the human silhouette painting, her pupils suddenly dilated.
'This is...'
Vera looked at the changes in the human silhouette in shock.
In the outline of the human figure in the painting, an eye appeared at some point, as well as the facial texture around the eye.
That eye was a left eye, but it revealed endless indifference.
Compared to Liana's cold eyes, they were calmer and more aloof, making people feel awe, as if they were facing a god.
The left eye and the facial texture around it also reflect one thing:
the owner of this left eye is... a man!
"It's a man!?!"
Vera was so shocked that her body trembled a little. She stretched out her slender fingers in disbelief and touched the eyes of the portrait man.
"Liana, you are stuck in the past, are you really doing something...Have you...made any progress..." "
It's a man...have you been waiting for him? Can he really free us from our destiny..."
" This eye... looks like a god, it seems... is it really possible?"
Vera's eyes showed complex emotions such as shock, admiration, and doubt, and she kept looking at the humanoid outline in the portrait.
Her memory began to drift into the depths of the years... When she was young...
'Wait... why do these eyes feel more and more familiar...'
...
on the other side.
Ricardo and Teresa reappeared in the Flower Manor.
At this time, Ricardo finally no longer needed to maintain the world-purifying force field. He took a step away from Theresa and restored the distance between master and slave.
Do not know why.
He felt as if his heart was beating a little at this moment.
He suddenly became a little sentimental at this moment, and there seemed to be some profound memories emerging in his mind.
But when he really wanted to remember it, the memory was not clear, as if someone had appeared in his past.
Could it be that he had just witnessed the reunion between sisters after parting in life and death, so he was also affected.
To be honest, Ricardo just felt the trembling of the two sisters' bodies. He is also a human being, so he has some feelings.
However, it is still daytime, and there are still many things to deal with. If you want to be sentimental, leave it to night.
Ricardo shook his head and suppressed the emotions in his heart.
He took a look at the flower language ability he had just acquired.
'Flower Language: Card Luck Critical Strike (When the effect of the related purple flower card exists for a high level and is beneficial to the owner of the flower language, the effect of the purple flower card will have a probability to ignore the level difference and exert an absolute effect. The greater the level difference, The greater the probability) '
Ignoring personality differences, absolute effects... This is a very powerful description.
Although this flower language ability has not yet shown its effect, based on the experience of his previous life, Ricardo understands that as long as the situation is appropriate and the method of use is appropriate, behind this description, when used, it may form a bug-like effect.
"Thank you, Lord Baron!"
Theresa took two steps forward, then turned around and solemnly saluted while dressed in the style of an aristocratic lady.
"Celia's Purple Flower Card is very precious. Teresa, you and Celia work well together. If you two grow up quickly, you will help me a lot in the future. You also have to improve your strength to a certain level in order to Go see Celia alone."
Ricardo did not respond to the emotion behind Theresa's salute, and directly arranged work for Theresa.
Afterwards, he immediately rushed to the Castle of Baron Wind Wolf, summoned the clone, and had the clone in the castle dungeon to immediately resume the interrogation work.
Now his mental power has reached the sixth level. Although he can only be recognized as a top wizard apprentice in the Wizarding Continent after he has a complete seal, his status is actually considered to be the sixth level.
Now the process of the clone squeezing the malice and improving the breathing method to the sixth level will have a bonus.
Ricardo looked at it and found that the evil thoughts required to upgrade the War Hammer Breathing Technique to the sixth level were already less than the Youhu Breathing Technique, so he simply upgraded this breathing technique to the sixth level first.
...
Afterwards, Ricardo teleported outside Leaky Cauldron Alley and once again asked the Magical Plant Shop to lend the mechanical tree man to him.
In addition, he also purchased a portable magic cabin for camping.
Ricardo used a mechanical tree to build a dungeon underneath the abandoned church.
In the future, this dungeon can temporarily detain some villains captured in the Wizarding World, without having to worry about them escaping back to the Wizarding World organization and leaking information.
This dungeon will need to be reinforced with various magic circles in the future to prevent villains from getting lost from here. Of course, the villains Ricardo will send here in the future will basically be those who have completely lost the ability to walk.
Then he teleported to the Mirror Shop, brought out the mechanical tree man, and built a road starting from the hillside where the Mirror Shop was located to the main road between Ice Lake Town and Panxue Forest Manor.
In this way, he can return to the territory from the mirror shop faster in the future.
During the road construction process, there are effects such as Muggle banishing spells, so there is no need to worry about being seen by mortals.
Seeing that there was still a lot of time, Ricardo also stopped by the Ice Lake. Starting from the Ice Lake, along the direction to the catacombs where Paris was before, to the border of the territory, he leveled the obstructing slopes and potholes along the relevant straight lines. It was leveled and a smooth mountain road was made.
Seeing that there was really no place to repair, he returned the mechanical tree man.
When building the last road, Ricardo just didn't want to waste the cost of renting the mechanical tree man. He also considered that there might be a small chance of being teleported from the tomb one day in the future. He was definitely not interested in the territory of Viscount Panshan's family near the underground tomb. Coveted.
The territories in his hands are all connected together and are enough to do some things in the future. There is no point in worrying about the Viscount Panshan territory in the distance.
Of course, if good things come to your doorstep in the future, that's another story.
By the time Ricardo returned to Flower Manor, it was already evening.
As soon as he returned to the main building of the manor, he heard an attendant coming up to report.
"Sir, there is a lady from Pansen County who wants to see you." "
She has been waiting for you since the afternoon." "
The other party is the senior executive of the Pansen County Thieves Guild. She said there is something about your brother Kerry's role in the thieves' guild. I want to tell you about the guild."
Ricardo frowned after hearing this.
He used the mechanical tree man for a long time. It was night now, but it was already very late, and it was already past dinner time.
And Kerry used to work in the Thieves Guild of Sarport County, not Pansen County. Why did the other party wait for him for so long for this matter... "Let's meet." "Let Theresa organize the enchanted
armor
team , prepare the crossbow I fired earlier, and wait by the side."
Ricardo ordered.
…
The time goes back to a day and a half ago.
Viscount Frostwind, together with several of his men brought by the Thieves Guild Scout Mentor, discovered a shocking fact after many investigations in Windwolf Town: on the day when the Windwolf family was destroyed, he personally severely damaged the
Frostwind Iron Guard. It was the injured intermediate apprentice 'Ricardo' who returned from the Wizarding Continent.
Moreover, the opponent also showed the power of a senior knight or above, and possessed very powerful top-level demonized weapons.
A frost sword close to the level of a Noble Phantasm!
The reputation of the Knights of the Ice Lake Territory has also spread. From the previous bandit-suppressing Mountain Wolf Bandit Group to this annihilation battle, the charging posture of the hundred-man Knights really shocked the local area.
Even though Wind Wolf Town is deliberately blocking the news about Ricardo, the leader of Ice Lake, and the strength of his men, they still can't help but pry!
"Oops! We have to rush back quickly to let the Night Crow Association prepare the assassination plan again!" "The
baron title left after the demise of the Wind Wolf family must be interfered with by the Viscount. The Ice Lake Territory must not be allowed to successfully obtain the baron title. !”
The knight commander hurriedly led his people, wanting to return to Pansen County in a straight line.
He is very strong and can walk on the forest path between the Ice Lake Territory and the Golden Deer Territory.
When he was halfway there, he immediately received even more shocking news.
...The assassination attempt by the Night Crow Guild failed, the entire army was wiped out, and the injured Grand Knight Scout Mentor of the Thieves Guild died on the spot!
...And the provincial central aristocratic council expedited the process of conferring a baron on Ricardo, and let Ricardo be conferred a baron on the same day!
The knight commander was immediately dumbfounded on the way.
He didn't even know how to go back and report to Lord Viscount.
At that time, Ricardo was the scout mentor who was killed alone outside the manor. No one saw it. According to the rumors, combined with the assassin killed by Ricardo outside the banquet hall, the guests at the meeting thought it was Ricardo who relied on both magic and knight strength. He cooperated and used his trump card to kill the great knight.
The Knight Commander thought so too, but the more important issue in the news was...he failed.
His trip arrangement... failed.
As a loyal confidant valued by Viscount Frostwind, he already understood that there was no way to recover.
He sighed and hurried back to Frostwind Territory to report.
...
A few hours later, after an urgent run, the Knight Commander returned to the Castle of Viscount Frostwind.
He immediately met with Viscount Shuangfeng and explained the whole cause and effect of the matter.
Viscount Shuangfeng listened quietly, frowning several times in surprise, and his eyes became heavier and heavier.
But in the end I listened calmly.
"Let the thief scout you brought also report."
Viscount Frostwind listened to what happened several times in a row from different people.
"Alas..."
"Lord Viscount! It's my subordinate's fault..."
The knight commander looked at Viscount Frostwind's sigh and quickly knelt down on one knee, holding his sword and lowering his head.
"Act now. Sure enough, the background of the wizard's return from the mainland is a magic box full of unexpected possibilities. Facts have proved that even if the opponent is rumored to have limited injury potential, you still have to be careful when facing such a spellcaster... That's it. ..."
"The other party can ask the provincial center to expedite the process, and the implications are not small. I am still dealing with the matter of the tomb here, so I can't travel far. You are moving in two directions now. One is to remove the wind outside the county. Contact some members of the Wolf family and other relevant people, and ask them to come forward for you and remove the Frostwind Territory from this matter; secondly, take my autographed letter and go to the leader of the Night Crow Club in the county. , and the old men behind the Night Crow Association. If they can come forward together, their strength will not be worse than mine. Let them do it themselves." "
Now the other party can kill the injured knight, no matter whether his injury is true or false. , we can't let him live. Let Night Crow Council take full action, and after the matter is completed, I can consider letting the viscounty believe in the ancestral spirit of Night Crow." Viscount Shuangfeng's tone revealed
decisiveness, and his eyes revealed sternness. He carefully The ground and the knight commander finished explaining the details.
"It's not appropriate to delay any longer. The opponent's promotion to baron status has not yet been stabilized. Let the Feng Lang family outside the county come forward. If the revenge is successful, there will be room for change..." As he spoke, the knight commander in front of
him already had something to say. thought.
In Fenglang Town, he has found the illegitimate son of Baron Fenglang in the blacksmith shop. Through him, he can contact some relatives of the Fenglang family in other counties.
In addition, he had already heard that the son of a high-ranking member of the Pansen County Thieves Guild, Yidam, was killed because he opened the door to assassins at the Jinlu family banquet.
…
Time returns to the present moment.
Ricardo, led by his attendants, went to the drawing room of Fanhua Manor.
When he was almost reaching the first floor on the stairs, he slowed down.
"First ask Teresa if the waiting team is ready."
"When they are ready, I will meet the guests again."
