Chapter 48: Southern family

Andrew didn't know that for Gong Hao, the alchemy experiment was actually the time for him to relax.
During these two years of living on Purgatory Island, in order to survive, he had to rack his brains every day. In order to resist, he was exhausted. Even so, risks are always with him.
Kill Neil, kill Pier, and even trade with Bailey, everything is full of huge risks.
The reason why he can live to this day depends not only on wisdom and hard work, but also on luck.
If it wasn't for the new tenant who killed Neil when he killed Neil, he would completely clear the spirits from his body, then he is dead.
If he didn't like the little princess, maybe he would not be able to pass the one-year deadline, but could only be forced to flee on a raft and eventually die on the sea of ​​death.
If his soul spell doesn't work as expected, Pierce may not be able to do it, then all plans will be empty.
If Chakrai did not choose to collect the benefits, but chose to expose him, then he is also facing a disaster.
There are too many uncertain factors, and no conspiracy or trick can be seamless.
Whether it is a planning omission or a flaw in execution, it may overturn itself.
For Gong Hao, this is a war. He must defeat an army alone, an elite army.
Not only does he have to do every job well, he has to work hard, but he also has to find the enemy's weaknesses from time to time, and then he can make a fatal blow.
If there is anything else on this island that will make him feel lucky, it may be that his understanding of magic is getting deeper and his ability is increasing.
During this period of time, he continued to deepen the cultivation of soul spells through alchemy, and faintly already had an omen to break through, and the progress of his wind system ability also exceeded his expectations, and also had an omen to break through.
Only then did he think of what Clos had said. A person with elemental shock ability means that he has a very strong talent in this department.
No wonder I didn't use much energy in wind magic, but I was able to gradually break through.
Although Lancelot's vocal industriousness is the most important talent, sometimes the talent itself can make people do more with less.
Thinking of this, Gong Hao sighed lightly and opened up the information about Lancelot.
The Southern family, arguably the oldest family in the Lance Empire, has a longer history than the Empire itself.
Speaking of the Southern family, many people may not understand the meaning of the name, but when it comes to another name, the Rose family, many people may understand.
At the time, the founding monarch of the Lance Empire, Edith Stricker was the best member of the Rose family. The Rose Army, which he founded under the name of Edie Moltzt, once swept the North Continent, fought countless times, and eventually established the Kingdom of Reims.
Southern families became famous.
But the establishment of the Kingdom of Reims and the glorious achievements of Idistrick were not a good thing for the Southern family. In fact, it was almost a disaster.
Because Idstrick was an abandoned illegitimate child of the Southern family, Moltzt was the surname of his poor maid's mother.
From the day he was born, he had almost nothing to do with the Southern family. In his consciousness, the Southern family was his enemy, not his loved ones.
Because of this, after the establishment of the Kingdom of Lance by Edith Strike, the Southern family did not become prominent because of it, but suffered his relentless suppression.
This suppression did not end until Edie died of recurrence of the old injury, and the southern family regained the opportunity to rise.
The death of Edithrick gave the southern family a chance. Because the founding monarch of the Kingdom of Reims has never had children. But he has a half-brother, Dan Stricker.
In the month after Edie's death, Dan demanded the position as Edie Stricker's brother.
But this result has not gained public approval.
Idistrike's subordinate general Charles directly alleged that Dan was not qualified to inherit the throne.
There was a big battle between Charles and the Southern family, but no one succeeded in the end, because at that time, a man named Georgia Fland emerged, claiming to be the illegitimate child of Edie, and using this Identity, defeated two teams at the same time, ascended the throne, and became Strick II.
It was later discovered that Georgia Forlan and Eddie had no blood relationship, but he did arrive as the son of Eddie.
In this way, Georgia Forlan was renamed Georgia Stricker, and began to rule the Kingdom of Reims, while the Southern family, the righteous royal family, was relentlessly cold.
Despite Georgia Fland's acknowledgment of the royal status of the Southern family, the Southern family did not receive any substantial benefit other than its reputation.
As a matter of fact, Georgia Fland has always been on the alert of the Southern families, and does not allow any one of their families to endanger their existence.
This is perhaps the worst and most embarrassing royalty on the mainland.
People in the Southern family have never been proud of it.
In the course of Georgia Fland's subsequent rule of the kingdom, he gradually had his own offspring, his own family, although in the name still belong to the Southern family, but in essence it is completely different.
Later generations call it the glory family.
This is unique to the Lance Empire, one country, two royal families.
The Southern family has since dropped politics and concentrated on business. In order to revive the family, they put down the identity and status of the nobles, re-established the family management organization, and at the same time attracted business talents. Young people with commercial talents walked into the Southern family and became their backbones.
While the blood of the glory family is becoming more and more pure, the southern family has become complicated and huge because of the addition of a large amount of new blood.
These outsiders re-established the glory of the Southern family, but also made the Southern family no longer a world of the simple Strike family name.
One of them was Lot, the most important surname of the Southern family today.
This surname was originally inextricably linked to Strick's Bazhazi, but now has a prominent position in the southern family.
Seeing this, Gong Hao also sighed in his heart.
This can be said to be a history of blood and tears of family growth.
In order to revive the family, or to survive, the southern family paid a huge price. They gave up the noble name of Strick, and through a large number of marriage methods combined with outstanding foreign young people, they have achieved this huge business family.
As for Lancelot, he is simply a copy of Edith Stricker. His father, Burt Lott, was the acting chief of the Southern family and the actual power holder, but Lancelot himself was also an illegitimate son of Burt Lott. The southern family is very kind to everyone else, but hates the illegitimate child abnormally. This may be because of the consequence of the rose monarch.
The result was that Bertrot's wife, Anita Stricker, the current Patriarch of the Southern Family, firmly refused to allow Lancelot to enter the family.
Although the Southern family has had many foreign surnames entered, and the patriarch is no longer in power, the name of Strick in the Southern family remains unshakable.
So Lancelot became an orphan.
As for what specific reasons Lancelot came to Purgatory Island, according to Bailey's information, he seemed to have offended someone who should not offend for a woman. At that time Lancelot did not have the current strength The big man just waved his hand to match him.
As a result, Lancelot was completed, and he should now be the youngest quasi-holy order of the Lance Empire.
If he goes out now, Strike VI is probably polite to him.
I just don't know what will happen to the quasi-holy order of the Southern family?
Gong Hao was quite interested.
There is no doubt that now Lancelot, he must want to go home very much.
"Master Lancelot." When he came to the small lake, Gong Hao smiled and looked at Lancelot who came out of the wooden house with a grim expression.
He was smoking smoke all over his body.
"Damn, Xiuyi, why is it so difficult to cook?" Lancelot's growl shook the earth. After Gong Hao became Hines' assistant, Lancelot had no chance to taste the food Gong Hao prepared for him. As a last resort, he can only continue to cook by himself and then fail.
"I think ... maybe because it doesn't give you the glory you expect."
"Do you know what I want?"
Gong Hao shrugged: "For a star warrior, what better than to return to his country and walk freely on that vast land?"
"What about you? Do you want it?"
"For me, the ocean of knowledge is endless. They are so wonderful that they not only grow me, but also make me feel fun. I won't want to leave here until I get tired of alchemy."
"But for me, this is the prison. You're right, I want to leave every day, but I can't."
"Why? You need to know that you are already a samurai star. This is a peak samurai, a samurai freedom, even if your Majesty the Emperor sees you, he must be kind to you."
"Power doesn't mean everything, and force can't solve everything. Xiuyi, this is what I learned after living on Purgatory Island for twenty years. I understand that just having powerful power does not mean that you can have a good life You also need to face life, you need to face all kinds of problems that cannot be solved by force. You cannot rely on force to rob, be a robber, a gangster, and challenge national laws, even if you have the most powerful force, unless you want to be with the entire world Right, otherwise you still have to act according to the rules. This is why people without hands can become the monarch of the country, and we powerful warriors can only die for our lives. We have no power but no In life, we can only surrender to others and then sell our own force. "
"Some people think they are the exception."
"Oh yes, like that nightmare mage. He used to create countless kills, he thought he could solve all problems with his own power. He killed tens of thousands of people, and his name made people dare not even mention it But what about that? He is a fugitive, after all. He can't possibly use his own power to overthrow a country. If he can do it, it is not human, but god. Although his name can be born The baby trembled, but he could only hide in a remote corner, and he couldn't come out to see people. "
"You're right, Lord Lancelot. But do you think there is any difference between you and that Nightmare Master? Are you not able to see people in a dark corner? Nightmare Master can at least walk out Come out and kill if you want to kill. He is at least free, but what about you?
Lancelot froze slightly.
Yeah, isn't it the same now? No, not even as a fugitive.
After thinking for a while, he finally smiled bitterly: "No, it's different, Xiuyi. Mage Nightmare doesn't care, but I do."
"woman?"
"... Yes, Xiuyi."
"I guess she's married, maybe she already has children."
"That doesn't make me lose my right to love her."
"But she has made you lose your freedom."
Lancelot Hoodi stood up, and the aura of his body was enlarged instantly, covering Gong Hao's entire body, enclosing him, and he yelled, "What are you talking about ?! Repair Iglell, you in the end What do you know? Don't think that you can be so rude to me now that you are Hines' assistant! "
Gong Hao didn't panic: "Master Lancelot, I thought I was already your friend, but it seems I was wrong. I don't know what, this is just the simplest reasoning. More than twenty years ago You like a girl, but it looks like you have encountered setbacks, I guess you may have encountered some obstacles that you can't get around, such as a big man, which not only makes you lose your favorite, but also makes yourself Come to this island. Such a story is happening every day in the world. You are not the only one. You do n’t have to think that you are the most unfortunate person in the world, let alone think that it takes me a lot of energy to explore. "
The aura disappeared.
Lancelot sighed: "Xiu Yi, you will always be so smart. Now that you guessed it, why bother asking me."
"I just want to ask you, if one day you have a chance to leave Purgatory Island, would you do it?"
Lancelot hesitated.
After thinking for a while, he finally said, "Yes, I will."
"Then maybe I can help you."
"How to do it?"
"Teleportation, you know that's my current subject."
Lancelot suddenly realized that was the case.
That ’s right, with the Teleportation Matrix, you can freely enter and exit Purgatory Island in the future. Lancelot's eyes raised the light of hope: "This is great, Xiuyi, are you sure you can do it?"
"No, I'm not sure. You know that teleportation is a problem for all alchemists. But if you would help me, maybe I can do it."
"what do you want me to do?"
"Gate of Space. Lord Lancelot, I need you to take me to the place of the Door of Space. I want to see its existence, its composition, and how it works. It's as if you are building a weapon Gotta see the prototype first, that's the most helpful thing for me. "
Lancelot took a breath.
This kid is too brave.
