Adeline doesn't speak anymore. Although she has a temper of some noble ladies because of her pampering, she won't do anything quibbleful.
My brothers have spoiled myself since childhood, and no one has ever bullied myself. The three are all first-class brave men. Adeline never believed that his three brothers would die in battle one day, but listening to his father suddenly did That said, she felt that the world was far cruel than she thought.
"I really don't want to be a puppet, this is more desperate than the destruction of my Masoka card"
In the end, she was still unwilling to compromise.
"My daughter, do you think I'm a free person?"
Earl Bolton suddenly looked at Adeline's eyes and said softly: "My daughter, if you think about it, do nobles have more happiness than civilians? More freedom?"
Adeline was silent.
"We are all in a cage, and like a scalper, we can't stop at all, because when your footsteps slow down, the people behind will step on you without mercy, no one cares about your life. , What we have to do is to move forward and move faster than others."
Earl Bolton sighed softly.
Eighteen-year-old Adeline knows more naturally than her peers because of her family background. She has also seen the scandals of nobility that civilians may not have heard of in her life. Complex etiquette and inner fatigue are the real causes of negative will.
"Alive, either work hard or die, this is the family motto of the Brook family, Adeline, I think you should understand that the end of a person’s struggle should not be the so-called marriage, our Brook family, until lying in front of the coffin For a moment, you should fight for yourself."
Either work hard or die, the choices that are left to people are always cruel. The nobles of the lords are facing the suppression of the cardinal and the heretic referee. The cardinal is in his eyes, but the situation is long gone.
"Harrington is not the best choice. He is cunning, cruel, and greedy. For nobles, these are excellent qualities, but for women, I admit that this is a disaster."
"father..."
Adeline didn't seem to want to hear the name, got up to protest, wanted to say something, but finally sighed and turned away from the room.
Looking at the daughter who didn't say a word, Count Bolton's face looked old.
"If there are other options..."
...
As a standard lady of nobility, Adeline is impeccable in all aspects from senior cultivation to body and face. She has an egg face, a blonde hair, and no with exaggerated scale, but it is a perfect ratio. She is not tall but has slender legs. But there is a fact behind the appearances that make the nobles of the Medicis secretly obsessed countless times-no one knows-this girl who is usually arrogant and has a small temper and a little stubbornness is a hobby of the "Masoka" game Collectors and collectors.
In other words, it’s more appropriate to add the word
crazy
in front of the two—
Masoka
is a game that is simply not accessible to civilians, but for most people who study it, this Such a complicated thing that makes the magician feel a headache is definitely not a pleasant "game".
"Masuo card" was originally a game invented by a group of idle and panic theoretical magicians. The original purpose was to show off and test a person's memory and computing power. The rules are not complicated, but because of the tedious card While the ordinary people are discouraged, the simplest game usually follows a principle of simplification and simplification. For example, the "chariot" in the civilianized battle chess can eat the "infantry" at will. "And" infantry" is no longer a simple symbol, but has become a specific unit detailed to the limit-the type of "infantry" can be "Byzantine heavy infantry", or "Fording heavy swordsmen" ", "Gilman Mercenary", and even "Caslandi Light Infantry", etc., each category has its own attributes, including "mobile", "defensive ability", "offensive ability", "physical recovery ability" ", "Maximum Explosive Power", "Minimum Fighting Power", and this is not a single value. "Infantry" is to calculate the final attribute according to the different numbers in the Maso card, and the calculation criteria are different. The fighting power of the three hundred Byzantine infantry is not simply multiplied by ten times when the number becomes three thousand, but is calculated by attenuation or increase in specific areas based on specific attribute values.
Without a computing power and memory ability that is different from ordinary people's brains, "Masuo card" is simply a book that you can't learn-you can't learn it-a total of 24 arms, 36 types of buildings, in addition to these basic cards. There have been hundreds of years of formulating new cards with more than five digits and corresponding calculation methods for different abilities.
The most important point of the rules of the Maso card is that during the game, every time a card is played, a decision must be made within a minute, otherwise the loser is considered.
This threshold has been raised to a level that is even more terrifying than the memory requirements of mid-level magicians.
Under such horrible rules, Adeline, as a player who may be able to rank in the top ten in the entire sacred Gabriel Empire but does not have any magic in itself, is absolutely a geek.
So for her suitors in the Medici City, this young lady who never showed her dew has a set of judgment methods in her boudoir.
Self-made Maso cards, with each suitor as a prototype, and a customized card made with the other party's occupation as a template-the above includes all suitors of the entire Medici and nearby city-states, of course, Kazakhstan Viscount Lington is the most prominent, but apparently Adeline returned to the bedroom today to find a new thing to do.
Make "Murpheus Roland" cards, knight templates.
Usually, this means that Murphys has become an official suitor in Adeline’s eyes, but it is slightly different from the dozens of basic attributes on other cards. This card has an additional Adeline. Content.
"Personal favorability".
.................................................. ...............................
Viscount Harrington has frequently traveled between the central church of Medici and his residence in the past few days, and today he returned to the mansion to look in a very good mood, holding a copy of the cardinal wax. In a letter, he waved his servant to secretly send it to the branch of the Medici City where the heretical verdict was located.
"Outsiders, always pay for their inadvertent recklessness."
The nobleman who was rated as "cunning", "cruel", and "greedy" by Earl Bolton narrowed his eyes slightly at the moment, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
At the same time, in the west side of Medici, Murphy was looking at the letter from Earl Bolton. Although his mouth was not smiling, his slightly raised eyebrows revealed that he was in a good mood.
This may be the first time Murphy has been in a better mood since he has been shrouded in haze for a long time, because the letter brought by Earl Bolton expresses his clear opinion-although the words still have aristocratic corners, but Mexico Fez's actions in the hunting ground have been very successful in getting him into the sight of the lord and reaching the point of "emphasis".
Murphy, who was sitting in front of the fireplace, looked away from the letter, and suddenly asked, "How far is the branch of the heresy?"
Compton, who was behind Murphy, replied without delay: "The straight line is 1,472 meters away. If you take the nearest route, you need 1,788 meters."
"How far is the residence of the Viscount Harrington to the heresy?"
"Straight line distance is 870 meters, no obstacles."
"What about his mansion to Jacob Cathedral?"
"Straight line distance is 3,517 meters~EbookFREE.me~The nearest route is 4,210 meters."
For a moment of silence, Murphy reached out and took out the quill pen and parchment that had been on the table, and reached out to the silent man: "Be more intuitive."
Compton reached for it and immediately began painting the streets of Medici with a quill with incredible precision.
Murphy looked silently at this blood family that seemed to be more and more mysterious in front of him, and lamented the accuracy of the other party’s painting if it was used to draw a magic circle, not to mention the perverted precision and depiction speed of Della, But one-tenth of the skill is definitely not bad.
In just five minutes, a city planning map that could only be seen in the city hall planning plan file was displayed in front of Murphys, and because the paper area was not large, the streets above it were presented exactly in proportion Only to highlight Compton's terrifying computing power and memory.
The Viscount Harrington, the Cathedral of Jacob, the branch of the Heresy Court, the Earl’s House of Lord Count Bolton, and the current residence of Murphys are also marked.
Murphy realized at this time how important a nobleman’s so-called
left and right
is. The distance between Viscount Harrington and the Cathedral of Cardinals, the Cardinals, is very far from the Cardinals, and It is absolutely not hostile to the heresy, and the proximity of the residence is definitely not as simple as it is on the surface.
While observing this parchment that the ink has not been completely dried, Connor Meeks came to report to Murphys an interesting piece of news-the members of the heretical tribunal are moving towards here, three Ordinary administrative officials are not combat teams.
"Sure enough, I'm hooked."
Murphy twitched his lips slightly and got up, saying: "Get a carriage and go to Earl's Court."
