When Viscount Bird woke up again, it was already early morning. At this moment, he has left that terrible and strange space, and returned to the real world-especially after seeing the sun shining through the window, Viscount Bird felt extremely happy and relaxed. This is still For the first time since I was born, I feel this way. But now, he doesn’t have time to sigh anything. Although it should be safe during the day, last night’s encounter still made the Viscount Bird feel terrified, so after waking up Thomson comatose in the corridor on the second floor, the master and the servant People hurriedly left the castle. Although it is not polite, the two masters and servants of "Aftermath" apparently no longer have the mood to stay in this old castle, leaving a letter to Yulian stating that the family is in a hurry and must After rushing back as soon as possible, they quickly left the castle. After all, that kind of terrible and weird thing, they don't want to encounter it a second time.
"Slow walking without delivery."
Standing by the window, watching the Viscount Byrd's carriage disappear into the forest, Julien's mouth twitched slightly, showing a smug smile.
"Master, how are our performances?"
And it was the girl who was killed by the Viscount Bird, who was standing behind Yulian at the moment, fiddling with the head in her hand, the twisted and deformed head was talking and talking With the girl's hands twiddling, it slowly regained its original shape and turned into a slightly different face, but still revealed a playful and beautiful face. Afterwards, the girl picked up her head and took a photo in front of the mirror, and then reinserted her back into her neck with satisfaction.
"Very good, I think this will give Mr. Viscount an unforgettable memory."
"It's a pity Charlotte's suit."
The girl looked at her body with a little helplessness. The maid's clothes on her body were still the same as they were cut before. It was hard to say whether they could be repaired again.
"Don't worry, everyone has a spare."
"I can rest assured that."
Speaking of this, the girl stopped for a while, then she looked up and looked at Youlian.
"So, master, time is up, I should go back to my sisters..."
With this sentence, the girl's body became more transparent, and when the first ray of sunlight in the morning crossed the mountain peak and spilled into the castle, the girl's body enveloped by the sun also instantly became a ray of smoke and disappeared into the air . And the maid costume full of holes was scattered on the ground because it did not have the support of the master. It was only then that Yulian turned around and looked at the dress.
"You have worked hard."
Then he said softly.
"So, has Mr. Viscount gone?"
O'Falil looked at Yulian, who was dining, with an interesting smile.
"Yeah, much earlier than we expected."
Yulian sighed and shrugged his shoulders, lowering the bread in his hand.
"It's a pity that I had hoped that this viscount gentleman would stay with me for a few more days and let him feel my enthusiasm..."
"Enough is enough? Lord Lord."
Hearing this, O'Falil finally couldn't help laughing. Since she noticed the unusual commotion of the wandering spirits last night, she understood that Yulian must have planned to do something to scare the Viscount, and from Yulian this morning The answers obtained here also proved her judgment. Of course, O'Falriel would not have any sympathy for the poor viscount's experience, but she heard Yulian's words and still made her smile. Just kidding, if you let the Viscount stay in the castle for another two or three days, I'm afraid he will be able to go back consciously.
Of course, both of them knew that this was just a talk. If after last night’s incident, the Viscount Byrd had the courage to continue to live in this castle, it means that he is definitely not an ordinary person. At that time, they must pay more attention to this guy. However, from the present point of view, this Byrd Viscount is clearly not the kind of person who needs special attention, as Julien and O'Falli have judged.
However, for O'Falriel, she has other questions.
"Master Lord, why do you ask the other party to divide the boundary map?"
To be honest, O'Falil naturally knew about the details of Yulian's negotiations with the Viscount Byrd last night, but she really couldn't figure out what it meant for Yulian to do so. If it is a serious and responsible lord, it is not surprising that such a map will be requested, but if this matter is replaced by Yulian, then it is very strange. With O'Fallier’s knowledge of him, since the other party took over the territory in the beginning There is no division at that time, so with Yulian’s character, he will definitely pretend to be at a loss, and when he calculates something later, he will use this to run against each other. After all, Twilight Forest is just getting started, and there is no profit at all. The Bird family has been in the business of gold business for more than 100 years. Although the power is huge, it has many interest disputes. The so-called barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes. When the border is not clear, Yulian can also use this as a shield to force the other party to make concessions, and the Bird family cares about this. At least initially, you will not want to find yourself and others. In order to prevent throwing away mice. But now, the border is divided, and the responsibilities of both parties are clear. If the Bird family wants to do anything in their territory, it is much more convenient. Not to mention, by that time, even if they were looking for some rogue gangsters, disguised as thieves and bandits, to harass the golden business from the side of the twilight forest, it was enough to give Yulian a headache for a while.
Therefore, O'Falil had only one conjecture about Yulian's act of actively requesting the other side to divide the border.
"Did you find something.........good stuff."
"It's actually not a good thing."
Youlian cut open the fried egg in front of her and replied casually.
"It's just that when I went to recruit the maid, I found a trace of "Source"."
Irene standing next to her, wide-eyed in surprise, saw a scene she had never thought of-the elder sister of O'Falil, who was always elegant and noble, when she heard Yulian's answer, it was almost Immediately opened his eyes, almost squirting out of his mouth. Fortunately, at the last minute, she finally found her gaffe, hurriedly covered her mouth, and swallowed the food hard, but because she was too anxious, she couldn't stop coughing. While standing next to her, Irene hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it to the girl's hand, which made the girl who had been coughing finally calm down.
"do not get excited."
As for O'Falil's gaffe, Yulian didn't care.
"Isn't it just "source"? As your high princess, you can't have seen that thing."
Hearing Yulian's words, O'Falil rolled her eyes, so that he was not mad at him. Of course, she knew what the source was, and because of this, after hearing Yulian's words, even O'Falil, also There is no way to control your emotions.
This continent is full of energy called Mana. They are not only necessary to sustain life, but also a powerful source of magic power. In legend, after all living things die, their souls will be transformed into the original source energy-that is, Mana, and return to the endless sea of ​​souls. And Mana, at the same time, is also the necessary energy for the growth of all life, just like sunlight, oxygen, water, is the existence of all life. And this is also the power used by the mages to manipulate. According to their own attributes, they summon the power of Mana and transform it into powerful magic.
Of course, Mana is not evenly distributed on this continent. In some places, the strength of Mana is relatively strong, while in some places, the strength of Mana is relatively weak, but there are some places that contain a powerful Mana. Power, they are like the center of everything, endlessly exuding the power of Mana, pushing them to spread around, and this is the so-called "source."
The power of Mana contained in "Source" is infinite, and after learning this, humans have naturally developed and used it. They quickly built a device that draws Mana's power to drive it, and to upgrade their civilization. And every "source" discovered by mankind is either a central city or a capital of a country. With the help of the infinite power of Mana, the civilization of those places has far exceeded the level of other regions. Don’t look at Yulian’s twilight forest as poor as in the Middle Ages, but in the center of the kingdom, it’s a different kind of civilization, with tall buildings abound, and the people there are not used like the people in other regions. For them, the magic constructs driven by the power of Mana are obviously better choices for them. All this is just because there is a "source" there, only second.
Of course, although the level of civilization in the area where the "source" is located is relatively high, this power also has its limits. After the Mana's power has spread to a certain extent, the effect will be weakened due to the decrease in concentration. In addition, humans have not fully understood this power, and there is no way to move them like battery storage. Only magic crystals and mages have the ability to store Mana’s power, but the former is expensive because of its scarcity. , There is no way to popularize. As for the latter......Who would expect those arrogant mages to be human batteries?
Because of this, although the central city with the "source" is relatively well-developed, on the battlefield, the weapons used by various countries have to be said to be mainly cold weapons and magical attacks by mages. Moreover, the effect of the source itself will vary depending on the scale, just like an oil field. Some "sources" release the power of Mana to support a huge city, but some "sources" can only release power at most. Maintain a town or so. Their quantity and quality also limit the development of the city, but this cannot be changed.
Although it is said that in places where there is no "source", people can still rely on that device to extract energy, but in this way, it will cause the power of Mana in that area to be exhausted. Not only will the river dry up, the soil will not grow any crops, the forest will be completely destroyed, and even the most viable humans will suffer from strange diseases and death-Mana is the source of life, no one would want Face the consequences of losing your life. In this way, it takes hundreds of years or even longer for that depleted land to be able to regain its former vitality, which is naturally undesirable to everyone.
And this also explains why O'Falir is so excited, she can foresee that once the "source" is really found in the twilight forest, it will immediately become one of the hottest centers in the entire continent. Gold Business? Compared with the "source", that kind of thing is like a gap between a copper coin and a gem! If O'Faril didn't understand Yulian's approach before, then she now fully understands it. If you can really determine the source, then you must draw up the demarcation map immediately, at least in terms of legal principles, so that you can clearly own the land!
but……………
"So, sir, have you figured out which force to show to?"
Looking at Julien's calm expression, O'Falil had to make such a guess. Be aware that the Mana extraction device is not for anyone to start with, especially after discovering that the use of such a device in non-"source" areas can have disastrous consequences, countries have increased their care. Right now, only three organizations are qualified, and only they can manufacture such extraction devices.
The first is that those royal families with "sources" have mastered this technology. Of course, this is the most central part of state secrets, and naturally it will not be easily displayed. Although Yulian would definitely get a response from the other party if he reported his findings to the royal family of West, it also announced the end of his lord's life. After all, Yulian is still only a noble feudal lord, not only has no power of his own, in his capacity, he is also not qualified to control a territory with a "source". It is conceivable that after reporting to the royal family, Yulian will definitely be lifted up and down, just give him any official title, and then re-seal him to another territory, and return the twilight forest to the royal family-this kind of picking up Yulian will never do anything about losing watermelon with sesame seeds.
The second force is the Master Association. As a mana operator and user, they certainly cannot have a mana extraction device. In fact, the central city of the Masters Association, the City of Ten Thousand Laws, is built on one of the largest "sources" of the mainland. And those mages also have strong strength and combat effectiveness. Not to mention, the influence of the Master Association is all over the continent, and their new discovery of the "source" is naturally very heart-warming.
As for the last force, it is the sect of sacred grace. Unlike the mages' association that uses and views Mana as pure energy, the sect of sacred religion regards mana as the supreme existence, and they are the gifts given to mankind by the mainland. It is for this reason that the Sect of Eunuch advocates the use of Mana with a feeling of gratitude, and they are opposed to the waste and use of Mana to expand human civilization endlessly. Think that this will eventually lead to destruction. Although this claim is refuted by the ideas of the upper class, but because it has a good reputation among the lower class, and the sect has its own powerful strength, it has also become a force on the mainland that cannot be ignored.
However, regardless of whether he chose the mage association or the sect of sacred grace, Yulian’s situation would not be much better—although it is very likely that he will retain the apparent position of his lord. However, it will inevitably become a chess piece and a puppet of the Mage Association and the Sacred Faith. Knowing that the Mana extraction device is in the hands of the big forces there. With Yulian's current identity and qualifications, how can it be possible to order them to do things for themselves?
"Don't think about it."
Facing O'Falriel's inquiry, Yulian wiped her hands and gave a clean answer.
"After all, I haven't confirmed if it is really the source, and where is the center of the source."
Finding the source is a very difficult thing. After all, many sources are like oil. Without exploration and development, they cannot find the other party's existence. And this is obviously a very professional job, and there are people in the royal family, the Masters Association and the sect of sacred grace to do this kind of work. They have been searching for hundreds of years, but the gains are not great. Moreover, the source itself is very rare, making it even more difficult.
You Lian happened to know some necessary knowledge to find the "source". Under ordinary induction, the source is not perceptible, but the concentration of their energy is completely incomparable with the ordinary Mana's power. This is the reason why Yulian became suspicious after coming into contact with the heterozygous wild boar. With the local concentration of Mana, it is impossible to mutate the animal, unless the concentration of Mana in some places exceeds the normal standard. Such a situation. This possibility is almost certain after he kills the alien and finds that there is no magic center in the opponent's body.
Of course, the "source" does not have no impact on humans. In fact, the people living in the center of the source will be healthier under the influence of Mana, and it is also very likely to give birth to children with magical potential— -For example, Miss O'Falil in front of herself is a good example, although she is awakening late.
"So........."
"do not worry."
Yulian waved his hand, blocking O'Falriel's inquiry.
"No need to trade with those vampires, I have a better way."
