Magic Industrial Age

Luo Yi naturally noticed the strange expressions on Oliveira and Ang's faces, but what could he say?

Even if he said something, they wouldn't believe him!

So, he could only pretend he didn't see it.

Ignoring Walter, who was still deep in thought, Luo Yi spent another hour meticulously examining the remaining items.

He couldn't discern the value of a significant portion of the items and would have to wait to have them appraised by professionals back home.

However, he had already found quite a few valuable things.

For example, the sea beast bones. Although they were mostly scattered fragments and somewhat aged, they were still from magical beasts.

Once ground into bone powder, they could be used as versatile magical materials with a wide range of applications.

Then there was the sea beast blood. While not comparable to dragon blood, it would undoubtedly make excellent magical ink.

Additionally, among the magical herbs, he recognized two or three types that were water-based or ice-related materials, which were also quite valuable.

They certainly couldn't compare to silver amber stone, but at that moment, Luo Yi was convinced that the ocean's resources were incredibly abundant.

That meant he had to pay even more attention to the sea妖部落 market.

However, compared to the ocean's resources, they needed to find ways to upgrade and enrich the supplies they could provide to the sea妖部落.

This would require a lot more thought!

…

One day later.

Late at night.

Mist enveloped Sea妖港, and the knight squad led by Grand Knight Commander Sol had been waiting for a long time.

They took over the goods and escorted them all the way to Lady Palacios's mage tower.

Here, the goods would be sorted and then appraised and evaluated by specialists.

Sea妖港 was, after all, the cargo distribution center of the entire Norman Duchy, with many merchant ships coming and going, and there was no shortage of professionals to do the evaluation.

And with these professional evaluation data, it would become the most important standard for subsequent negotiations between the two parties.

Of course, except for the silver amber stone!

As for Luo Yi, Oliveira, and Ang, they had already taken a boat upstream and returned to Brussels City.

Two days later, within the mechanical mage tower, a series of intense斗气 fluctuations spread out, continuous and endless like a great tide, showing its magnificence and grandeur.

Even more strangely, golden-red斗气 light burst forth from Luo Yi's body, like a dazzling sun suddenly lit up.

Although it only lasted for a very short time, it was exceptionally striking.

Even in broad daylight, it caused a commotion in Brussels City, with countless people looking up.

The Sacred Radiance Breathing Technique, in addition to cultivating higher quality斗气, also has excellent healing and restorative effects, and has miraculous effects on tempering the body.

However, this is also the internal effect; outsiders cannot clearly understand its effect unless they are cultivators.

And what is revealed externally is actually the word 'Radiance'!

To put it bluntly, if he needs to, he can adjust the brightness of the斗气 externally by adjusting the斗气 frequency.

Although it consumes a lot of斗气, it can instantly radiate extremely high light without hurting people, but it is frightening.

Doing this up close can definitely flash blind people's eyes.

It can be said to be impossible to defend against!

Luo Yi had naturally converted his斗气 long ago, but he usually didn't need this method, and now he showed it.

Of course, he did this for a reason, which was to tell everyone that he had come out of seclusion!

As a result, when he walked out of the secluded room, there were already many people standing outside.

Butler Hoover, Mira Greenman, Lien Vasquez, Grand Knight Commander Alfonso Zek.

And, the Iron Knight Phil and Flame Sword Saint Otto, hidden in mid-air.

They were all waiting quietly. When they saw Luo Yi, they only felt that his aura was much stronger, and his strength seemed to have improved greatly.

This was not false. With Luo Yi's cultivation speed and all kinds of resources, he looked different almost every three to five days!

However, how long has it been since he achieved the third-order transcendence? Even if he is a genius, it is impossible to fill his斗气 in a short time.

That ultimately requires a process.

At this time, he just released his aura, showing a somewhat uncontrollable appearance, in order to make a breakthrough posture.

This is of course to cover up the lie, not to deceive the people present, but to deceive the people outside.

Ang's intelligence system had already discovered that there were always people peeking outside the雄狮庄园, so he had to be cautious!

As for why he didn't clean up these people?

If they were cleaned up, and those nobles sent some more powerful and more hidden people, why bother?

It's better to put these people under your nose, maybe at a critical time, you can rely on them to pass on some 'useful' information!

In his thoughts, a petite figure came quickly and threw herself into his arms.

It was Lilia Lightninger!

She was wearing a moon-white magic robe, and there was still the smell of spices that hadn't dissipated, obviously she had just been practicing and rushed over directly when she got the news.

She buried her head in Luo Yi's chest, her voice trembling and aggrieved: "Luo Yi, I, I was so worried about you!"

Although the news of Luo Yi's departure was kept secret, some people still knew about it.

For example, Butler Hoover, Luo Yi needed him to help cover it up; and then there was Lilia, he couldn't hide it from his pillow person.

Feeling the soft and fragrant jade in his arms, Luo Yi felt a little guilty.

He stroked Lilia's hair and said with a smile: "It's just breaking through a small realm, it took a little longer, it's nothing!"

Then he looked up at everyone: "Okay, okay, everyone is busy with their own business, I want to appease your Countess."

With that, he hugged her in Lilia's exclamation and turned to go to the top floor of the mage tower.

Later, everyone smiled knowingly, and suddenly, their expressions froze again.

Lien Vasquez asked everyone's confusion: "Just now, did the Earl say 'Countess'?"

Mira nodded: "So, I didn't hear it wrong!"

Grand Knight Commander Alfonso Zek frowned slightly and said: "Miss Lilia is naturally very good, but this identity..."

He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was already obvious. For Luo Yi's marriage as an earl with real power, love is not important, but interests are the key.

Especially since Luo Yi is an illegitimate son who inherited the throne. No matter what, there are three points that are not justified.

If you really marry a daughter of a great nobleman, with the relationship of marriage, you will definitely get huge support, and you will have an alliance in the duchy.

Many people thought that Luo Yi would choose this way, but now, it doesn't seem to be the case!

Alfonso Zek's words aroused Mira Greenman's anger.

She suddenly turned her head, stared at the Grand Knight Commander, and asked: "What's wrong with her identity? What's wrong with Miss Lilia's identity?

The Earl was once just an illegitimate son that you looked down on, but now, aren't you still surrendering at his feet?"

"Identity does not represent everything, especially in this era!"

In鲜花领, Alfonso Zek is definitely a high-ranking and powerful lord. Not to mention his own strength and status, just saying that there is a Scourge Knight behind him, few people dare to talk to him like this.

But facing Mira Greenman's reprimand, he seemed a little at a loss and hurriedly explained: "Mira, you know I don't mean that.

I am a little worried, after all, the Norman Duchy is still the world of nobles!"

"Enough!"

Butler Hoover opened his mouth, he interrupted everyone's argument, and seeing everyone looking at him, he said: "The Earl has his own decisions, when do you need to gossip here?"

"And all of you shut up and just listen to the arrangements!"

After a pause, he still said with a slight smile: "However, I think in a while, we should attend the Earl's wedding!"

…

Two hours later,

Sixth floor of the mage tower, bedroom.

After a fierce battle, the bedroom seemed messy, with clothes and socks discarded everywhere.

On the goose down bed, Lilia lay in Luo Yi's arms, drawing circles on Luo Yi's chest with her white fingers.

Round and round, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, like teasing, and like uneasiness in her heart.

Luo Yi lowered his head slightly, and his voice came: "Lilia, write a letter and ask your father to come over!"

"Ask my father?"

"Ask him to come and discuss our wedding."

After a pause, he added: "Logically, I should take you for a walk, but you know the situation in鲜花领, I am really not suitable to leave.

So, please ask the old man to come over and discuss and prepare for the various matters of the wedding."

Lilia finally raised her head, she looked at Luo Yi, there were still two blushes on her fair face, with the shyness and helplessness of a girl, and a bit of excitement.

After a long while, she whispered: "Luo Yi, are you really willing to marry me?"

Even Lilia, who has received the most advanced education of this era, still has very strong feudal thoughts.

Great nobles have to marry other great nobles. This is not Alfonso's idea alone, but the social system of the entire Old Continent is like this.

Lilia had never dared to mention this topic before, because she was afraid of bursting her own dream.

However, in Luo Yi's place, she was never a multiple-choice question.

Luo Yi lowered his head and said softly: "Lilia, do you also think I am hesitating?"

Before Lilia could answer, he said to himself: "Actually, no, you are the wife I have identified."

"The reason why I only spoke now after so long is that the sense of crisis in my heart is at play."

"Last year, after arriving at this earldom, the war never stopped, and everything was in chaos!"

"This year, I presided over the reforms in the territory and promoted the development of magic-energy industry.

To be honest, even if the plan is well-planned, I am not sure whether it will succeed or not!"

"If it doesn't succeed, I'm afraid that the world will be turned upside down in an instant, this position of Earl will not be stable, and I may have to take you to escape, so I don't want to mention it!"

"Until now, it is basically stable, and our wedding should be put on the agenda."

Saying this, Luo Yi moved his body so that he and Lilia faced each other.

He raised his hand again, and the holy artifact·箴言戒指 appeared on his ring finger, shining brightly again, and Luo Yi took out a flawless white ring from it.

Luo Yi held the ring in front of Lilia and said, "Will you marry me?"

Proposing on the bed is really a bit strange!

But, who cares?

As long as it succeeds, it's not a big deal!
