On the fifth day of his arrival in the capital, Rocky was finally met by the emperor George Atlanta.
The place to meet was not in the palace where the emperor worked, but in the garden.
When Loki arrived with the guard, Her Majesty was sitting in the pavilion, drinking leisurely drinks.
"Loki, long time no see."
"See Your Majesty."
"You don't need so much courtesy. I think we were classmates at the beginning." George Atlanta put down the cup in his hand, and a look of nostalgia appeared on his face.
Rocky didn't have the slightest slack because of the emperor's attitude. He respectfully respected the ceremonies before slowly standing aside.
George Atlanta shook his head slightly, and seemed to blame the old classmates for their achievements. But soon, he picked up the mood and took out a box.
Rocky's eyes narrowed slightly.
He knew this box, because it was two days ago that he personally contributed to the royal family. It contained information about the assembly line.
"Rocky, I have read your report. Not only that, but I also experimented with it myself, and the results were surprising."
The shock on the emperor's face at this moment was not acting, and Rocky knew why the other party was so surprised.
In fact, when he learned the result, his expression was much more exaggerated than the current emperor.
"You gave a great gift to the empire."
"Everything is for the empire's prosperity, and the Portias should do."
"That being said, the empire always rewards and punishes clearly." George Atlanta's face showed a distressed look, seemingly trying to reward Rocky and the family behind him. After a long time, the emperor smiled. Apparently, he With the idea: "The hereditary title of the Portia family has been promoted. Why not give it a bigger land? What do you think?"
Rocky's face remained motionless, but she was already chilling in secret.
The emperor's coolness was worse than he thought.
Rocky originally thought that offering an assembly line could at least temporarily dispel his sorrow on the territory of Portia, and change the short-term peace.
But things did not go as expected.
The emperor still couldn't let go of the wealth of Portia.
Outside the territory of Portia, there are no more unowned land around.
Therefore, it is impossible for this newly-closed territory to merge with Portia.
It is not in accordance with the laws of the empire that one family manages two fiefdoms. Therefore, Her Majesty is planning to change the territory of the Portia family.
"The new fiefdom is to the west of the empire. It has twice as many territories as the territory of Portia. It has a large population. What do you think?"
Although Rocky lowered his head, he could clearly feel that George Atlanta's gaze would now fall on him.
But can he accept it?
"Thank Your Majesty for your kindness, but Wei Chen's long residence in Portia, has become accustomed to the local customs there, I am afraid it is inseparable."
"This way, then I didn't say it." George Atlanta didn't seem to be angry at all, and his tone was still mild. I saw him stand up from his seat, walked outside the pavilion, and said to the distant figure: "This is My second son, Rocky, what do you think? "
"The talents under the second palace are naturally excellent." For a while, Rocky could not determine the emperor's mind, and could only answer carefully.
"You're too exaggerated." George Atlanta shook his head and seemed to think that Rocky's praise for his son was a bit overdone. It ’s a long way off, but this kid is quite like me.
"The second prince is naturally like her Majesty." Rocky became more cautious when he heard that George Atlanta drew the topic to his daughter.
"Rocky, I heard Vera isn't engaged yet?"
Rocky was shocked and seemed to understand what the emperor was planning.
"What do you think of my son?" George Atlanta didn't hear Rocky's response, and didn't worry. He said to himself: "This boy and Willa are just the same age. We were classmates again. If we can make this friendship Continuing to the next generation, Rocky, don't you think this is a very wonderful thing? "
Rocky was sweating on his forehead at the moment.
This is indeed a very wonderful idea for George Atlanta.
Rocky now has only one daughter, that is, the direct heir of the Portia family, only Vera.
However, as long as the Portia family did not make mistakes, even the emperor's heart was unable to on the bright side.
But if Willa married the second prince, the result would be different.
Once Loki dies, Portia's collar will return to the royal family in another way.
Not only that, Willa, a genius with great potential, can also be completely transformed into the royal family.
It can be said that as long as Rocky nodded, the royal family could get both money and wealth without much effort.
Of course, this proposal from George Atlanta is not entirely useless to the Portia family.
Once the marriage is successful, then before the lord officially transfers, as the royal in-laws, no one will dare to wrangle his brains.
Even after Rocky's death, with the relationship between Willa and the royal family, the Portia family can survive well.
But is this what Rocky wants?
Rocky did want his family to survive, but he hoped that the survival of the family was based on a strong foundation, not a vassal of the royal family.
Rocky finally understood why George Atlanta was not angry at all about his refusal to change territory before.
It turned out that from the beginning, the emperor's goal was not here.
Compared to the mere territory, the greedy emperor obviously wanted both man and money.
Rocky had previously rejected the emperor once, and if he continued to refuse marriage, it would obviously be unwise.
But Rocky couldn't completely sacrifice his daughter. After thinking repeatedly, he said hardly: "If the second prince can be with Willa, Chen is naturally happy, but my daughter, born willful, Wei Chen also promised She, let him choose her husband freely, so ... "
"That's easy." George Atlanta's Pella Rocky shoulder, with a deeper smile on the corner of his mouth, said, "Just let these two children get along and see if they can make it all depends on their own will."
"That being the case, Wei Chen complies."
Although Rocky still felt that there was something wrong with it, he also knew that this was the best result he could get, so even if he was worried, he could only nod in agreement.
"Rocky, I have a hunch that we will be in-laws."
"Wei Chen also sincerely looks forward to this day."
George Atlanta was very happy, and for this reason, he had a rare dinner in the Royal Palace to entertain Rocky.
During the banquet, the second prince also appeared to personally toast Rocky. Seeing his attitude, it seems that Rocky has become his future husband.
There is no impenetrable wall in the palace, especially George Atlanta deliberately released news, so the next day, almost the entire aristocratic circle of the emperor knew that the Portia family was about to marry the royal family.
The royal family seems to want to determine things through public opinion.
When Rocky heard the news, it was too late.
Of course, affected by this news, Rocky can clearly feel the change of his surroundings.
In general, there are fewer hostile eyes and more flatterers.
Vera, who was far behind Portia, had no idea what happened to the capital.
At this moment, she was in the training room, familiar with the power she gained.
As she became familiar with the magic of fire, Vera felt more and more powerful.
The housekeeper originally expected that the young lady would break through in half a month, but Willa's speed of practice obviously obviously exceeded his expectations again.
When it dawned on the third day, Willa opened the door of the practice room, and from that moment, she officially became a platinum powerhouse.
After receiving the news, the housekeeper just didn't make a fuss like the last time.
And the surprise that his own lady gave him is enough. Compared to the last time, what is it to break platinum in two days?
Of course, the owner far away from the imperial capital has not yet known about this matter, but the steward has some expectations. When the owner receives his letter, what kind of ecstatic expression will be revealed.
Unfortunately, the housekeeper did not have the opportunity to witness this moment in person.
"Butler, haven't anything happened in the territory in the past two days?" After leaving the customs, Willa asked the status of the territory for the first time.
"Miss Hui, there is no major incident except for the bizarre death of a guard in the guard."
"The guard died? Is it related to the mysterious strongman?"
"According to the magic investigation, this possibility is not ruled out." The steward's face showed anxiety.
If the Lord ’s Mansion had not been able to determine whether the mysterious powerhouse was malicious with Portia ’s territory before, the death of the guards was enough to show that the answer was frustrating.
The steward felt anxious at the thought of a powerful and malicious man hiding in the city of Portia.
Of course, even if my heart is worried, it can't be revealed on the surface.
Now that Vera has just passed her own demon, her cultivation is still unstable. If she is subjected to too much pressure, she may become the same as before.
"Miss please don't worry. The patrol has stepped up. I believe there will be news soon, but I think maybe the strong man has left Portia territory."
Vera is not a young lady who doesn't understand anything. She understands that this is just a word of consolation by the housekeeper.
However, she does not intend to continue to delve into this topic. Compared with the mysterious strongman, she is more concerned about her cultivation.
After all, she can protect her family only if she is strong enough that no one can ignore.
"Yes, ma'am, this is what you ordered to investigate, and there are already preliminary results." The steward also did not want to discuss this topic, so he chose to shift the topic: "This is what we search for as much as possible within two days There was information about the dragon. "
Vera accidentally gains fire magic. To this end, she wants to know if this is directly related to the dragon's blood.
Therefore, before practicing, she ordered the steward to investigate the matter, and the steward also paid special attention to it. After Vera's retreat, she mobilized all the power in her hand. In just two days, she collected a lot of data of.
"Let's talk." Looking at the thick pile of information, Willa has a headache, so instead of choosing to take it back and watch it slowly, it is better to listen to the housekeeper's conclusion directly.
"From the results of the survey, the dragon's blood does indeed imply powerful magic, because they are also one of the favorite materials of the alchemist."
"However, although there is evidence that eating dragon meat and bathing dragon blood can enhance physical fitness, no one has ever awakened to the new magic."
"As far as the conclusion is concerned, it is still uncertain whether the awakening of Miss Fire's magic is directly related to bathing dragon blood in the Summoner Canyon."
"Of course, there is another explanation. The lady herself has the talent to become a fire magician. It was just a coincidence that she was inspired."
Vera has tasted the sweetness of water and fire, so she even looks forward to one day becoming a master of the four series!
Therefore, she has already begun a plan to conquer the remaining dragons in the Summoner Canyon, and even her strategy targets include the more powerful ancient dragons and dragons.
But the housekeeper's investigation apparently poured her a pot of cold water.
Once her fire awakening magic has nothing to do with bathing dragon blood, the dream representing her four-line magician over there will be completely shattered.
"Of course, miss, because dragons are too mysterious and powerful, there are very few records about them. The best way to really determine them is to obtain dragon blood experiments."
Why didn't Vera think of this, but the problem is, let alone bring out the summoner's canyon. After the dragon disappears, even the dragon's blood contaminated by him will disappear completely.
Unless ~ EbookFREE.me ~ she can bring people into the Summoner Canyon.
But will Wang Jun agree?
Although not asked in detail, Willa can feel that the Summoner Canyon is one of the biggest secrets of the Superhero Academy, and it is naturally she does not want to let too many people set foot.
That liar allowed her to enter the practice, which is already quite face-saving.
In this case, where could Vera make a cheeky request?
"Forget it, that's all for now, and I won't mention it later."
No matter what, Willa will continue to challenge the dragon.
As long as it goes well, she will undoubtedly bathe the blood of the elemental dragon again.
So even if she doesn't do experiments specifically, the final result will be reflected on her.
Once she awakens the new magic power, she can prove the role of dragon blood, otherwise, she needs to find another source about the fire magic power on her body.
"Yes, miss." Although I feel a little sorry for not being able to get Dragon Blood, I have to say that the housekeeper also thinks this is the best way.
Even though Wang Jun and his students are weak, today's superhero academy has initially demonstrated its value.
Of course, the housekeeper didn't want to destroy the relationship between the Lord's House and the Superhero Academy.
