Magic Industrial Age.

Chapter 17: Count Raymond (Seeking follow-up reading)
There is no doubt that Count Raymond's arrival made Roy uneasy.

As a result, I just couldn’t get into the state of cultivation today. My mind was full of all kinds of thoughts and distractions.

Fortunately, he stopped for half an hour, sat there, squinting his eyes and thinking carefully.

Whether Roy admits it or not, Count Raymond is his greatest support now.

Although he was not given a clear identity and the illegitimate child could not be presented in public, he was not treated unfairly in other aspects.

However, in Luo Yi's original memory, he was actually mostly afraid of this person. They hardly spoke to each other, let alone understood each other.

Naturally, he couldn't provide Luo Yi with any useful information. Only that hint of majesty that he couldn't look directly at even affected him now.

However, Luo Yi is no longer the same Luo Yi as before. After half an hour of deep thinking, he preset a lot of situations and his heart gradually calmed down.

When he practiced again, he was more focused and serious.

He didn't like this feeling of being helpless and uneasy at all. He needed the power to control his own destiny.

Perhaps it was because of his firm belief that the results of his practice this morning were even more gratifying.

He could even vaguely feel the beating of the seed of life in his heart.

It seems to be in sync with the heartbeat, so that with every beat, endless power flows to the limbs.

As for the reflection on the attribute panel, the cultivation progress has increased by fifteen points.

Even in novels from this world, few authors would dare to write about this speed of progress.

In comparison, Luo Yi spent a lot of time and energy on basic meditation, but the effect cannot be said to be almost non-existent, at most there was no progress at all.

He also tried to understand the content by himself, find the appropriate logic, and then use the "auxiliary learning module".

It’s a pity that what you think is just what you think. It doesn’t conform to the rules of logic and cannot be constructed.

In the afternoon, Luo Yi went to the library again. This time, he specifically looked for books on aristocratic genealogy and aristocratic development history to scan.

The original body had studied heraldry, so he could understand how confusing the genealogy of the nobility was. It was not easy to sort it out.

This time, Loy mainly looked at the aristocratic history of the Norman Duchy and the aristocratic circles of Auckland City, thinking about the interests involved.

Although books are time-sensitive and do not represent the current situation, he should at least know what they are and where they come from.

Roy absolutely did not believe that Count Raymond came because of him, and it was hard to say whether the letter he sent had reached the other party.

Therefore, there must be some reason why this Earl ran away to other countries!
After flipping through several books, picking a place, and starting the 'auxiliary learning module' to digest it, Luo Yi already had a relatively complete outline in his mind, and also had some guesses.

As the autumn sun sets, the sunlight gradually dims.

When the bell rang again, Luo Yi walked out of the magic academy with brisk steps.

At a glance, I saw the luxurious carriage belonging to Count Raymond parked on the side of the road. Many people were coming and going, and many of them cast their eyes over here, some with curiosity, some with desire.

If Luo Yi were to explain, carriages are actually divided into different grades, just like cars in previous lives. Carriages worth tens of thousands are just for transportation, those worth millions can show one's status, and those worth tens of millions can be driven out to show off one's status.

The luxurious carriages of the great nobles are almost all unique custom-made, and they represent the nobles themselves when they go out.

Luo Yi himself is not low-key. After all, his own way of doing things has made him somewhat famous.

But all this was nothing compared to the sensation he caused when he boarded the carriage.

In the carriage, Oliveira sat quietly.

His lean body stood straight, with a long sword placed across his knees. It seemed that a huge force was surging in his body, so much so that when Luo Yi entered the carriage, he even felt suffocated.

As a third-level Swift Wind Swordsman, he can already release his fighting spirit. The destructive power cannot be described as considerable, but it is a new height of human combat power.

If he were allowed to attack without scruples, even if there were hundreds of people like Luo Yi, it would only be a waste of his time and fighting spirit.

As for Butler Hoover, he seemed to have other things to do and was not in the carriage.

Seeing Luo Yi coming up, Oliveira slowly opened his eyes and nodded slightly, which counted as a greeting.

Don't think he is aloof. He nodded only because Luo Yi is familiar with him. Otherwise, he would have ignored her.

The carriage started, and the driver, who was also an experienced man, casually whipped the horse and started running at a steady and fast speed.

Luo Yi hesitated for a moment, but still spoke: "Teacher Oliveira, can I ask why the Earl is here?" Oliveira frowned slightly on his cold face and uttered a few words: "You shouldn't ask, I can't say."

Luo Yi said: "I know, I know, but the Earl came so suddenly this time that I am unsure.

Of course, you don't have to tell me the details, I'm just making a guess, and I hope you can nod your head."

Oliveira frowned even more tightly, but before he could say anything, Keluoyi immediately asked, "Mr. Count, are you here in response to the invitation of the Habsburg Empire?"

At that moment, he saw the surprise on Oliveira's face and his pupils dilated slightly.

Although the expression was very slight given Oliveira's dead face, it still couldn't escape the scan of 'Deep Blue'.

"Okay, okay, I think I have an idea."

"I haven't seen you for a few months, little Luo Yi. I almost don't recognize you anymore." Oliveira rarely spoke and said a series of words:

Luo Yi also knew that he was showing off too much, so he smiled shyly and said, "After leaving Ferro Town and making a living on my own, I met more people and things, and I will definitely grow a little bit."

After a pause, he added: “After all, the people outside are not as kind as the residents of Ferro Town!”

Oliveira was silent, and no one knew what he was thinking of, but he actually agreed.

After leaving the city, the carriage sped up faster and faster, and finally arrived at Provence Manor before the autumn sun set.

Luo Yi was very familiar with this place, after all, he had lived here for more than two months.

But now, in addition to the ones he was familiar with, there were many more people in the Provence estate.

The elite guards of the Raymond family are all powerful elite swordsmen and knights, as well as maids, cooks, butlers, coachmen, etc. who travel with them...

At a glance, Luo Yi knew that it was a team of at least a hundred people, and the second floor of the manor was rarely lit with bright lights.

From time to time, a knight would walk out of the room, mount his horse, and disappear into the evening sunset.

These were obviously messengers, and, one after another, in a very short time, he saw three figures leaving.

Roy got off the carriage and was led upstairs by Butler Hoover into the Earl's study.

The overall style of the Provence manor is simple and seems very crude, except for the earl's private room, which is the most luxurious.

From large items such as furniture to small items such as lamps and ornaments, each one was more exquisite than the other. There were carpets on the floor and various processed animal heads hung on the walls.

Although Luo Yi couldn't appreciate this kind of aesthetic, seeing the half animal heads hanging there would scare him half to death if he suddenly woke up in the middle of the night.

But for the nobles of the Old World, this is a symbol of bravery. The manors in Provence are ordinary, and the ones hung are just deer heads, horse heads and the like.

A true aristocratic castle, the favorite thing is the Warcraft specimens.

Luo Yi stood aside and raised his eyes slightly, and saw a man with gray hair, strong physique, like a lion, busy behind the desk.

His thick fingers held a slender-looking feather pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote beautiful cursive characters.

After finishing writing, he dried the ink, folded it and put it in an envelope.

Then, he took the melted gold paint from the small stove next to him, dripped it on the surface of the envelope, took out the ring and pressed it on.

When the ring was removed, a lion head logo appeared on the gold paint, which was the emblem of the Raymond family.

The messenger at the side stepped forward, took the letter, backed up to the door, turned around and left.

After a while, Luo Yi heard the sound of people coming down the stairs, the neighing of horses, and the sound of horse hooves in the distance.

Count Raymond seemed a little tired. He rubbed his brows, then looked up and said to Roy, "How is your time at the Philante School of Magic?"

Luo Yi told the truth: "It's very good and fulfilling!"

"I'd like to hear your evaluation of the magic machinery."

PS: The new book is launched, and it is most important to follow the reading. I beg you to do so!

　Anyway, this person is the protagonist's biggest backer in the early stage...
