"No...if that's the case, how could the Sleepless Emperor allow a small viscount family to be stationed here?"
Lin Ke suddenly discovered something suspicious.
Why would Azan be allowed to guard a dangerous place like the Lava Swamp?
Logically speaking, it’s not an exaggeration to hire a duke to guard it, right?
You must know that Azane is the closest family to the Everglades.
However, Lin Ke, who was confused, quickly saw the notes at the back, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The Black and White Kingdom became extremely powerful after Emperor Wu Mian came to power. The Emperor directly signed unequal contracts with the kings of Warcraft in the lava swamp, and ordered Lady Tide, a twenty-fourth-level god who belonged to the Black and White Kingdom, to guard this place.
With a powerful god suppressing it, no intelligent monster would come out of the swamp and offend the Tide Lady.
As for those without intelligence, that is, wild beasts and low-level monsters, they can only give local farmers an extra meal after leaving the swamp.
If you have no intelligence, a monster that spits out two fireballs can easily be knocked over by a hoe.
And even if a god or professional more powerful than Lady Tide is born, they still have to be wary of the Great Emperor who is located in the capital of the Black and White Kingdom.
Abyss, the capital of the Black and White Kingdom!
"The name of the capital is actually 'Abyss', good guy..." Lin Ke couldn't help but feel a little lost.
On earth, it is said that the abyss and hell are the residences of devils and devils...
But I don’t know if that’s how it’s defined here. It’s also possible that this is a world that is different from what Lin Ke knew in his previous life.
Perhaps here, the meaning of "invisible bottom" is not actually "abyss", but "heaven"?
Um, probably not...
However, just by hearing the name, you can tell that the Royal Capital "Abyss" is different.
Lin Ke's curiosity was attracted, and he felt that his heart was itching to death: "I really want to... I really want to see it!!"
With this curiosity, Lin Ke continued to read carefully and quickly.
The first book, "Nassenger's Notes" was quickly read, and there is still much to read.
Lin Ke admires and is very grateful to the person who wrote this book, a legendary [traveler] who has died.
Then there are the other books.
"I teach swordsmanship in the abyss"
"Approaching Magic, Councilor Permafrost will reveal the eight mysteries of the lava swamp!"
"Starting with a bowl, the Archduke of Destruction becomes a legend"
"How terrifying! The Sleepless Emperor actually likes men..."
…
Hmm? It seems like an incredible book to be included in.
Regardless, none of these book titles seem normal.
Lin Ke continued to swim in the ocean of knowledge, gaining knowledge crazily.
These materials are either novels, biographies, or bard poems.
But no matter what, there are many realistic things in it, which made Lin Ke gradually understand the Nasenger Continent.
The more he understood, the more Lin Ke broke into a cold sweat.
chaos.
too messy!
Nasenge is much more chaotic than in the previous life!
Although there were various countries, religions, and ethnic groups in previous lives, we were all human beings after all.
What about here?
Forget about different forces, let alone ethnicity here, there are countless kinds of races.
Not to mention religion, there are many times more gods here than legends. After all, it is easier to spread faith than to become legends.
In addition, different cultures, different concepts, and different levels of economic development...
Good guy!
Lin Ke called him a good guy!
If the endless plane in the star realm had not been discovered, or if the endless plane had been discovered without the time and space teleportation magic circle, the Nasenger continent would have been reduced to a pot of porridge long ago.
Wiping away the non-existent cold sweat, Lin Ke closed the last book, closed his eyes and began to meditate to get rid of some messy thoughts.
After a while, while eating and drinking milk, Lin Ke began to sort out the knowledge he had gained today in his mind.
Gradually, I gained a general understanding of the Gula Kingdom and the situation surrounding the Azane territory.
Not long after, John knocked on the door hurriedly and came in: "Master! Master! The distinguished guest is here!"
Distinguished guest?
Lin Ke opened his eyes and frowned.
Because of the young master from the Deep Blue family before, he had little hope in the aristocratic character here.
But after thinking about it, Lin Ke's brows relaxed again.
Before, Delin and the others didn't know that Auf was here, and they were still young and didn't receive much education. It was normal to be rude.
A bit of self-confidence from the people above will often translate into a bit of arrogance from the people in the middle, and arrogance from the people below.
I hope I won’t meet a “distinguished guest” like Delin again.
Lin Ke hurriedly washed and changed clothes under the service of the servant, and then prepared to go downstairs.
However, while getting dressed, Lin Ke accidentally saw a large group of people outside the balcony. After hearing the noisy sound, his pupils couldn't help but shrink: "So many people?"
He quickly grabbed John: "John, go find someone to inform Teacher Aof and ask him to watch for me outside."
John nodded and immediately went to order the servants.
Lin Ke walked towards the reception room.
…
In the reception room, the eldest lady Antova was sitting in the main seat, holding a cute little cheetah in her arms, and behind her stood Butler Billy and Furlong.
Furlong didn’t even have a seat!
On several other chairs, there were people wearing various costumes and different expressions...
and non-human.
There was a white-haired woman holding a thick book, sitting upright in her seat with her eyes closed and meditating.
There was a majestic man wearing armor and even his head was covered by a helmet.
There are also noble girls with arrogant looks...
In addition to humans, there was a huge purple frog with shiny skin sitting on the seat, and a cat man with a cat head and a human body.
Six nobles in total!
And except for one girl who looked arrogant, everyone else was majestic.
Although the entire living room seemed quiet on the surface, only Antova and the short man next to her were chatting.
But in fact, there is a smell of impatience spreading throughout the space.
A trace of cold sweat slipped from Antova's temples.
"Billy, ask the servants to prepare some pastries made of gula milk and sour fruit for the distinguished guests to try." Antova kept a smile on her face and said friendly to the short man next to her:
"Sour fruit is a small fruit from our countryside. It is sweet and sour. The sour fruit cake made from high-quality wheat flour and mixed with gula milk tastes..."
"When will that adult come?" At this time, the man in armor interrupted Antova and asked angrily.
As soon as the words came out, everyone who was talking stopped, and their attention suddenly came to Antova.
"Humph, what kind of sour fruit cake, I won't eat it!" The girl with an aloof look was full of disdain and refused directly.
"Mrs. Brando, that gentleman lives in your Azane Castle. We just want to see him this time... I mean, we are very busy and have other things to do."
The white-haired old woman who had closed her eyes to meditate also opened her eyes, revealing pupils that were more black than white. She looked at Antova and spoke slowly, with a hoarse voice.
Next to Antova, there is a short man with two mustaches on his lips. He looks naive and does not look like a human, but looks a bit like a goblin.
The man was originally communicating with Antova, but now seeing that the atmosphere had changed, he sighed inwardly and was about to speak.
But just then, the door opened.
A small figure walked in from behind the door, with red lips and white teeth, a calm complexion, medium-length brown hair, flowing and smooth, and the fiery red clothes on his body were gorgeous and exquisite.
It’s Lin Ke!
Lin Ke walked in slowly, followed by John who didn't dare to breathe.
Seeing Lin Ke, everyone couldn't help but focus their attention.
Lin Ke's eyes were as calm as water.
Under the good aristocratic education of Butler Billy and his friends since childhood, his movements are noble and elegant, and if you don't look at his immature face, you will feel an aura of calmness and self-power.
So calm!
This is not the wisdom a six-year-old should have.
This is not like the arrogance of ordinary noble children.
The aristocratic girl who was about ten years old and looked arrogant, her eyes lit up when she saw Lin Ke, but she didn't speak.
"What an excellent bloodline." The white-haired old woman exclaimed after seeing Lin Ke, as if she sensed something.
"There is no smell of waves... This child does not inherit the blood of Garose?" The strong man in armor also turned his head to Lin Ke, with a hint of doubt in his voice: "There is no smell of rock from the Brando family... Boy, you
Which branch is your mother’s family?”
Lin Ke looked over, felt the surging blood power in the armored man's body, and asked softly: "Who are you?"
The strong man in armor did not answer, as if he was waiting for Lin Ke's reply.
And Lin Ke seemed to be waiting for his answer.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Lin Ke immediately withdrew his gaze, said nothing, and walked to Antova in silence.
Anxiety flashed in Antova's eyes, but she couldn't say anything more. Sometimes a man's dignity is much more important than others.
Not to mention the dignity of the heir to a noble title.
At this time, in front of outsiders, whether it is Antova, Furlong, Billy the Butler, or John, Lin Ke must take priority.
If Lin Ke were to give in at this time, it would cause a terrible blow to Azan's reputation as a noble.
After Antova got up, Lin Ke sat down on his seat calmly and looked around: "Welcome all distinguished guests."
"Humph, boy, you are so arrogant!" The strong man in armor chuckled, and immediately came over with a surge of momentum.
At least a strong person of level ten or above!
Feeling this aura, Lin Ke's pupils shrank.
Butler Billy behind him moved his fingers, as if he wanted to do something, but held back.
"Haha, yes, Xiao Lin Ke! You have the same temperament as your father! You are so arrogant!" At this moment, the short man next to Lin Ke laughed twice and stood up, as if he was echoing the words of the strong man in armor.
However, everyone present could notice that the momentum of the strong man in armor was directly blocked by the short man who stood up.
"Mr. Akli, do you want to be an enemy of Count Jusword?" The strong man in armor stood up, with a chilling air in his body, and spoke bluntly.
This is the murderous spirit honed on the battlefield!
"No, no, no, the Earl of Giant Sword is so powerful. I am just a businessman. How dare I be his enemy?" Akli waved his hand with a smile on his face, and then sat down slowly.
"Hmph." A cold snort came from the helmet of the strong man in armor, and he sat down again. The armor on his body made a "click-click" sound, but it was not easy to use his momentum to suppress Lin Ke.
"Compared with the affairs of your two families, I want to know more about Mr. Lin Ke's bloodline?" The white-haired old woman kept her attention on Lin Ke.
Lin Ke glanced at Akli first. He did not expect that the object of Mrs. Montenegro's allegiance was this little pet earl.
Then he smiled slightly at the old woman: "Old lady, who are you?"
The old woman looked calm and even answered coldly: "I come from the Permanent Frozen Chamber and am responsible for investigating the Parrot City incident."
Those who freeze the court forever!
Lin Ke understood.
Because these big forces control each other, once professionals attack and massacre a city on a large scale, there will be corresponding people to deal with it.
only……
You check yours, why do you ask me about my bloodline?
"It's not convenient for me to tell you about my bloodline, I'm sorry." Lin Ke replied apologetically to the white-haired old woman.
He had no intention of talking about his bloodline at all. The vision of his bloodline in the soul space proved that his bloodline was definitely not ordinary. Coupled with his super high talent...
Any tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!
Slowly developing, struggling to develop.
"Oh?" After listening to Lin Ke's words, the old woman smiled and shook her head. The thick book in her hand suddenly turned over with a clatter, and Wu Feng automatically said, "It's not up to you."
At the same time, two faint white lights emitted from the old woman's eyes, shining on Lin Ke like a flashlight.
"Wow!!!"
Waves of mysterious power, like poisonous snakes, swept out of the old woman's book in an instant.
"So domineering!" Lin Ke instantly felt like a frog being targeted by a snake, no, like a monster being targeted by Ultraman.
I feel like my whole body has been seen through!
Feeling like a natural enemy!
Lin Ke felt his body sink, as if a giant snake weighing a thousand pounds was pressing down on him.
He immediately raised up the only second-level [Scholar] power in his body, but it was crushed in an instant, and his skills could not be released at all.
"Romela! How dare you touch the nobles of my Black and White Kingdom?!" Count Akli looked ugly and wanted to stand up again, but a vague aura locked onto him, coming from a strong man in armor.
As for the arrogant-looking girl, the frog and the cat-man, they have been watching all this happen with indifferent expressions, as if they were in another world.
Fulong and others behind Lin Ke exclaimed, confused about the situation.
"Crack!"
The armrest of the seat was crushed. Lin Ke gritted his teeth and tried to raise the power of [Scholar], trying to prevent the endless snake-like power from invading his body.
This old woman wants to explore his bloodline!
Maybe...maybe more!
what to do?!
Lin Ke was extremely anxious, and for the first time he realized the importance of strength!
He is too weak!
And these high-level professionals are too lawless!
"snort!"
Fortunately, at this moment, a cold snort came into the hall, followed by a huge momentum rushing in.
"boom!!"
Everyone seemed to hear a thunderous explosion in the living room. They were shocked for a moment and froze in their seats.
The old woman's expression suddenly became surprised, the book flying in her hand closed with a "snap", and the light in her eyes dimmed a lot.
Even the strong man in armor and Earl Aker groaned at the same time, and their faces turned a little pale.
The other servants who were watching didn't feel much, and Fulong and the others didn't feel much either.
"Legend?!" The girl with an arrogant look exclaimed, and a necklace around her neck suddenly activated a shield to protect her. She waited until Auf's momentum passed before retracting the shield, full of surprise.
"No, it's Your Excellency, Xinghui level." A steward behind the girl replied softly, his tone full of respect. After answering the girl's words, he stopped moving, as if he was integrated with the surrounding environment.
Star level!
Everyone in the reception room was shocked.
Not level fifteen, but level twenty!
The information is wrong!
But think about it, in the eyes of the low-level professionals in Parrot City, level 15 is the same as level 20. They can be crushed to death with one finger anyway.
Just like from the perspective of an ant, a cat and a blue whale are almost the same. They are both hundreds of times bigger than themselves anyway.
and……
A strong person at level 20 can definitely be granted the title of Duke.
Lin Ke, who was originally targeted by the old woman, also breathed a sigh of relief, and the power like a poisonous snake dissipated.
"Click!"
At this moment, the door to the reception room opened, and Auf walked in with a serious look on his face, holding a thunder staff.
The thunder staff struck the ground, and the sound it made was like thunderdrops hitting the floor.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom"......
Auf walked in slowly and looked around. Everyone who looked at him lowered their heads to show respect.
Then he slowly walked behind Lin Ke and stood there without saying a word.
But a star-level aura filled the entire living room overwhelmingly, and all the professionals felt like small boats struggling in a rough ocean.
The higher the level of professionals, the more obvious the feeling.
In their eyes, what stood there was not a person at all, but a bolt of thunder that penetrated the sky!
But at this moment, Aofu suddenly withdrew everything and then stood quietly beside Lin Ke.
"Hello, Your Excellency."
"I have met with you on behalf of Earl Greatsword."
"Dear Your Excellency, I am Ackley Sifrey."
"Hello, Your Excellency, I am Rika, from the 'Abyss'."
…
After Auf regained his momentum, the white-haired old woman, the strong man in armor, Earl Akli and the arrogant girl quickly stood up and bowed to Auf to show their respect.
This is respect for the strong.
Moreover, the cat man also stood up from his position, and the giant purple frog also stood up.
"Hello, sir, I am the valet of the Grand Duke of the Mountains." The cat man bowed and saluted, his voice soft and waxy, and pleasant to the ear.
"Quack, the strong man of mankind, I come here on behalf of Lady Tide," the giant purple frog said after a salute, and then lay down again.
After a round of self-introduction and salutes, these distinguished guests did it naturally and without any sloppiness. The etiquette was sufficient, and they didn't have the same bad looks towards Lin Ke and Antova before.
This made Lin Ke sigh slightly in his heart.
Sure enough, the most important thing in this world is power!
At this time, he relaxed and the pressure from the old woman disappeared.
He couldn't help but look at the old woman more and remembered the old woman's appearance in his heart.
This is a member of the Permanently Frozen Chamber, and cannot be killed now!
but……
Lin Ke remembered it!
At this time, Auf accepted the courtesy of everyone.
"Hmm." He made a sound through his nose, and then made no extra moves.
It's just that the right hand holding the thunder staff is a little white, obviously it is held tightly.
The white-haired old woman was shuddered when she saw this detail, and thought to herself: Could it be that Your Excellency is angry? His hands are turning white! Moreover, his body is shaking slightly with anger...
She couldn't help but regret her reckless behavior towards Lin Ke just now, but that was really because she felt the potential of Lin Ke's bloodline and couldn't help but want to explore it.
And the original news here was that he was a level 15 professional! She wasn’t afraid!
Who knew he was actually a star-level gentleman.
Old woman Bai was nervous inside, and at the same time she was also prepared for heavy bleeding.
As for the danger to her life, as a member of the Forever Frozen Chamber, she came to enforce the law, so not everyone could touch her.
As for the strong man in armor, his expression cannot be seen, but you can feel that this strong man is sitting upright and motionless, as if waiting for others to speak. He looks like a pair of armor placed on a velvet sofa.
Only Earl Akeli didn't seem to notice the situation of Auf behind him, and looked at the pattern on the door with a smile on his face.
He had just helped Lin Ke several times, but he was not afraid of anything.
Of course, Lin Ke also saw Aofu's appearance with his peripheral vision, knowing that his teacher must be nervous and embarrassed now.
He eased the palpitations he felt from being oppressed by the old woman just now, took a deep breath, and slowly said: "Everyone is here, what are you doing?"
However, when the words came out, these people didn't even look at Lin Ke, they were still glancing at Aofu, as if they regarded Lin Ke as nothing.
Seeing everyone who didn't take him seriously, Lin Ke couldn't help but frown, and Antova behind him also showed a bit of anger in his eyes.
Just then, a series of servants came in carrying silver trays with small pieces of sour milk cake.
Then the almost solid atmosphere changed subtly.
The servant placed the snacks on the small wooden table next to the chairs of these people, and then filed out.
No one touched the delicious sour fruit cake on the table.
Lin Ke couldn't care less and just ate the snacks on the plate leisurely, as if he was not in the reception room but in his own bedroom.
But at this moment...
"I want to marry you!" A clear and proud voice sounded from the corner, it was the girl from the "abyss".
The girl's bright eyes looked at Lin Ke, as if she were seeing a gemstone dragon.
When Lin Ke heard this sentence, he was savoring the sweet and sour taste of sour fruit and the mellow taste of milk. When he heard this sentence, a large piece of sour fruit cake slid directly into his throat.
"Ahem, cough, damn... Um, I'm sorry, what did you say?"
