Chapter 18: Establishing Forces and Chinese Schools (seeking for further reading)
...
After returning to the castle, Ricardo teleported again.
The remaining six radiant sunflowers were transported over.
A total of nine radiant sunflowers were planted in the garden of the Flower Manor.
"Brilliant Breath!"
After completely filling in the soil next to the last root, Ricardo used his flower language ability to spread hot air around him.
He tried using Radiant Breath to see if it could be used to repair some of the damage done to the Radiant Sunflower during the planting process.
But he soon discovered that his flower language ability could only be used to heal himself.
However, the scorching hot air that spread out still made Shining Sunflower seem to have some reaction.
These sunflowers, being an extraordinary plant, have a long flowering period and are able to spread their flowers for a long time.
At this moment, some flower disks seemed to stretch even further because of the hot airflow.
They seem to enjoy the airflow energy provided by Ricardo.
And this scene made the female attendants on the side look surprised.
"Theresa!"
Ricardo walked back to the main building of the manor, preparing to teleport back to London in the bedroom and go back to the hotel to have a good rest.
Theresa was by his side as head maid.
"My lord!"
Teresa walked aside respectfully.
"In recent months, there seem to be bandits in the outskirts of several villages in the territory. Now I need to form a cavalry team." "
When I returned from the Wizarding Continent, I brought a batch of knight armors with me." "
You go to the castle tomorrow. Ask the guard captain to select those under the age of eighteen among the territorial guards and start training at Fanhua Manor."
Ricardo ordered.
Behind Lord Andrew's illness, there seems to be a conspiracy involving the surrounding nobles. Logically speaking, the Lord's territory is on the edge of the county, and ordinary bandits will not invade this kind of territory.
But from the direction led by Baron Wind Wolf next door, there have been bandits coming recently.
It seems that the Wind Wolf Barony is using many details to remind Lord Andrew that he "pays attention" to the issue of territorial inheritance.
But now that Ricardo is back, with Ricardo able to gain the combat power of a senior wizard apprentice in a short time, he is not afraid of the shadow behind it.
Even if there is a conspiracy behind a small lordship succession issue, the level involved is not very high.
"Sir, where is the lord..."
Theresa asked carefully, realizing the sensitivity of this issue of training force.
"The Lord is seriously ill. The medicine I provided will allow him to recover within half a year, but the things that should be dealt with within the next six months still need to be dealt with." "The Lord has handed over all the power in the
territory to me. Everyone in the castle knows that, you Don't worry about it tomorrow."
Ricardo told Teresa not to worry.
Teresa was a little surprised when she learned that Ricardo could cure the Lord's serious illness.
But seeing Ricardo's unconcerned look, I thought of the strength Ricardo had just shown.
She understood that compared to a promising wizard apprentice, worldly things were just incidental.
After the extraordinary power is upgraded, secular power will naturally follow.
In the family letter from the past few days, it seemed that Ricardo might encounter problems on his journey as a wizard, and the level was not high.
But judging from today's performance, Ricardo was much more powerful and mysterious than the wizard apprentices she had seen in Pansen County.
...
so Theresa doesn't have to prepare meals for the next day, because Ricardo is going out.
Ricardo returned to the bedroom and changed his clothes.
Then teleported back to the modern world where London is located.
He returned to the hotel, washed up and went to bed directly.
The next day.
Ricardo woke up and went to the abandoned church again.
In the timetable he set, two periods of time every day were used to deconstruct the protective formation left by old Richard.
It would take about a few days. If he could get information from the Paris Office's library, he would be able to completely deconstruct the entire protective circle in no time.
And avoid violent breaking in certain links, which will cause some magic stones to be burned and wasted.
...
noon, two blocks away.
Within a block of about twenty kilometers.
A Chinese school is located in a green neighborhood. The school's building is a red brick structure. A blue sign hangs at the door with the name of the school in gold fonts. There is a playground inside the school and a playground next to it. Small gymnasium.
Walking along a path outside the small gymnasium, you can go directly to the 'Gio Public School' next to the Chinese school.
Gio Public School is a traditional imperial-style private school. Most of the buildings are white stone structures. The school gate at the entrance is a huge arch. There are several gardens in the school with fountains. The playground and gymnasium are much larger in size and number than the Chinese school next to it.
The Gio School ranks only about twenty places in the Empire where the sun never sets. Compared with the nine famous public schools whose reputation has spread to the other side of the Eurasian continent, such as Eton College and Harrow College, it is not well-known.
In a classroom at a Chinese school.
It was time for get out of class to end.
This classroom with many high school exchange students was noisy.
On the window side of the classroom, a tall Chinese girl was taking out a thick lunch box from her bag.
She wore a white shirt, a dark blue suit jacket, a black skirt, black stockings and women's leather shoes, and a school collar and tie. Some strands of her long black hair were dyed red, which added to her whole look. Mysterious color.
After the girl got up, she was about to pick up the lunch box. At this time, two tables away, another young and beautiful girl came over.
"Nono, why don't we go to the restaurant to eat together?"
"No, Qiu, I brought a lunch box today, which is quite rich."
Nono rejected the appearance of another beautiful girl.
The girl called Qiu didn't mind the rejection. She was turning around to leave when she suddenly thought of something and turned around and asked,
"Have you seen Ricardo today? He has been missing since last Friday afternoon. I called him on the weekend. I wanted him to help with the move, but when I called him, his phone was turned off. Today, you even asked for leave and didn't come to class." "
Maybe he knew that he failed the test last week and wanted to relax."
The girl pointed to some test papers on the table.
This Chinese school has always had an exchange cooperation agreement with their hometown city. Many students who want to study abroad in the future, or other students who do not want to take the normal domestic examination path, will consider participating in this exchange.
However, there will still be required examinations. Many former colonial countries under the sun never sets system have Chinese schools, and the teaching materials used are similar to those in China.
Right now, it's obvious that they just finished an exam last week.
"Qiu Ran, he seems to have a distant grandfather in London. The old man passed away recently, but he had no direct heirs, so he left an inheritance to him. He is probably receiving the inheritance recently..." Nono explained
.
"Inheritance, this kind of thing will be encountered by Ricardo?"
The girl suddenly became excited. She wanted to continue asking, but Nono shook his head and said that he didn't know much.
Normally, the girl always lets the local classmates around her call her Qiu Zhang.
The reason is that she was born in London and did not return to her mother's hometown with her mother until she was nine years old. She is actually half a Chinese girl in London.
"Although there are no direct heirs, the old man seems to have always had a lover, and all his property was given to his lover. It seems that he didn't leave any pounds to Ricardo, but only books and works. I think when he comes back, Let Ricardo speak for himself."
Seeing the girl's excitement, Nono added helplessly.
"Oh, that's it... I thought Ricardo was really that lucky."
At this time, the girl's companion was calling for dinner outside the door. The girl turned around and responded, and then said goodbye directly.
Nono took the lunch box alone and followed him out.
After going out, she stayed quietly for a while, waiting for all the boys who wanted to get close to her to run away.
She silently walked to the rooftop of the building alone.
After entering the rooftop, the iron door on the top floor was closed.
She silently walked to the railing on the roof of the rooftop and looked at the scenery in the distance.
A black figure suddenly appeared next to her.
This figure was wearing a waiter-style black suit, a black bow tie, and a puppet-style fox demon mask.
If you look closely, you will find that under the mask, it is indeed a puppet.
A waiter puppet wearing a puppet-style fox mask.
Faced with such a weird scene, Nono was not surprised.
It seems natural.
"Miss Nono, we have confirmed again that Mr. Ricardo is still alive. It seems that he has successfully survived the crisis."
