Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 609 Sequence 1 Ceremony

"Isn't it environmentally friendly?" Hobert thought he heard wrongly: "Isn't electricity environmentally friendly?"

Earl Hall smiled and said: "It is said that they saw that the power plant had a chimney as big as a chimney, and a large amount of white smoke was emitted every day. This obviously violated the relevant laws of the current Air Pollution Investigation Committee."

"Ah, I understand." Hobert nodded, with a smile on his face: "Obviously it was a misunderstanding caused by them not understanding the operating principle of the power plant."

Earl Hall put away his smile and said: "Things are far from simple. I hope you can deal with it carefully."

Hobert smiled and said: "Thank you for the reminder. The 'Earl's Light' will be able to deal with it by next week at the latest."

Earl Hall said nothing more, chatted with Hobert for a few more words, and then gave the central position of the ball to Hobert and Audrey.

After watching her father leave, Audrey asked: "Hobert, does the power plant really cause a lot of pollution?"

Hobert smiled and said: "Are you free tomorrow? How about I take you to visit the power plant?"

Audrey smiled helplessly: "Maybe not tomorrow, well, maybe not in the past few days, because the elders in the family, as well as the elders on my mother's side, should all come to ask about our relationship. , I have to entertain them.”

Hobert nodded: "That's okay. We will visit the power plant together next week."

He smiled and added: "You will know after you visit the power plant that their so-called non-environmental protection is a complete joke.

“In other words, environmental protection or not is not their focus!

"The point is, the emergence of 'Earl's Light' suddenly grabbed too much share of the lighting industry. This is the main conflict between them and me."

Hobert took a deep breath and said: “Submitting a report to parliament is just their first step to gain some attention.

"I have thought about it for them. Several people will definitely die due to the use of electricity in Backlund, and many accidents involving electricity will also occur.

"Using the fear of the unknown to suppress the 'Earl's Light' is their purpose."

Following this line of thinking, Hobert suddenly discovered that he was actually facing the interest chain of the entire gas industry and the politicians who had benefited from this industry.

With the wider application of electricity, conflicts with original interest groups are almost inevitable.

They don't think about who can better represent the future of mankind, they care about their own immediate interests.

This is not short-sighted, it is just human nature.

Unless Hobart can publish all the current processes in the electric power industry, allowing the gas lamp industry to take a share of the electric power industry at a very small cost.

But for now, Hobert still needs to use "Earl's Light" to absorb massive funds to develop the business in the Southern Continent. He does not intend to release more monopoly technologies before the next commercial move is fully launched.

After listening to Hobert's analysis, Audrey asked with some concern: "What should we do?"

Hobert smiled: "There's nothing to worry about. Gas is not without safety hazards."

He simply skipped the topic: "It seems you have to complete the promotion next week."

"Yeah." Audrey said with some regret, "I'm really busy this week."

"I have to be there when promotions happen."

Audrey smiled: "I know."

While they were chatting happily, some nobles already made excuses to leave, and many nobles followed suit.

As a result, the party had to be abandoned after only a few dances.

Hobert and Audrey also joined in seeing off the guests. After sending most of the nobles away, Hobert smiled and said: "It seems that their congratulations just now were equivalent to farting."

Audrey said seriously: "Hobert, your choice of words is very ungentlemanly."

Hobert nodded: "It is indeed not gentlemanly enough. Let me repeat, their congratulations just now seemed to be deflating from the middle and lower parts of the body.

"Ah, it's good to have gone to grammar school. How can I describe it so appropriately?"

Audrey covered her mouth and chuckled, then put down her hand and cleared her throat and said, "I don't care."

She said seriously: "Even if the whole Backlund is against our love, I don't care."

Hobert put his hand on Audrey's waist naturally, and while walking back to the ballroom, he said: "It's not that serious. They left at this time probably because they were afraid that they would lose their dignity. Anyway, I didn't Take it to heart.”

Back at the door of the ballroom, Audrey pushed away Hobert's hand on her waist: "I'm afraid that I will create more enemies for the 'Light of the Earl'."

"Don't worry." Hobert said firmly: "They don't know what the true meaning of 'Earl's Light' is."

Audrey was stunned: "What is it?"

Hobert smiled: "You'll understand when you work at Earl's Light."

While talking, the two people returned to the ballroom.

Many nobles who were close to Christine and Earl Hall did not leave, including Viscount Graylint, a friend of Hobert and Audrey, and Lord Bradley, whom Hobert had rescued before, etc. Many nobles did not leave.

Hebrew sighed: "I didn't expect them to be so ungentlemanly."

"I think we should behave like gentlemen in this regard." Hobert smiled: "They may really not be able to accept that the 'Pearl of Backlund' has taken a liking to an ugly and poor brat.

"I think they might actually cry if they stay here.

"So we have to be gentlemen and let them go."

Several young people laughed together.

Hibbert also laughed a few times very unkindly before saying: "Your sarcasm is so sharp!"

If Hobert was ugly and poor, then Backlund would not have a handsome and rich young man.

Everyone had another small-scale dance, which ended happily and lively until about ten o'clock in the evening.

Hobert fell asleep after returning to the Earl's Mansion. He had been sleeping very well these past few days.

On Friday, Hobert finally had a day off.

He spent most of his time in front of the window looking at the garden outside in a daze, and only occasionally thought about his next plan.

After a day of rest, Hobert felt very energetic, so he came to work at MI9 on Saturday.

As soon as he arrived at the office, Hobert asked his secretary Charlene to bring in the files about the Aurora Society.

The Witch Sect has been crippled, and they will definitely stay dormant for a while, making it difficult to carry out new attacks on them.

Then it was naturally the turn of the Aurora Society.

There were a lot of files about the Aurora Society, and the staff of the two archives offices helped move them before they were all moved to Hobert's office.

Hobert looked at it for a while and found that most of these files were tragedies caused by members of the Aurora Society.

Moreover, he discovered that many cases were obviously not the actions of the Aurora Society, but because they had not been solved for a long time, they became the work of the Aurora Society.

Not only do these lunatics of the Aurora Society refuse to defend themselves, they sometimes take many cases against themselves.

So they became the "scapegoats". Sometimes MI9 did things that were not visible to the public, and when they had to find an explanation, they would frame the case to the Aurora Society.

Pushing aside these case-type files, there are only a dozen files left.

Hobert looked through it and found that the information on the Aurora Society's stronghold, personnel, etc. in Backlund was very detailed.

After thinking about it for a moment, Hobert quickly understood that this was probably information obtained by MI9 while cooperating with the Aurora Society.

Hobert took a serious look at the information about these members of the Aurora Society.

He was going to let Xio verify it, and then organize a wave of assassinations to see if he could lure out any big fish.

As for the Aurora Society being able to find out that the mastermind behind all this is Earl Hobert based on the intelligence provided by MI9, that would be perfect. Hobert can just sit back and wait for their demigod to come and die.

The victory he just won has greatly increased the power that Hobert can control, especially the three demigods of the Balk family, who can now be mobilized at will in the name of "the founder".

The change this brought to Hobert was that before the war, he had to find opportunities to attack the Aurora Society and try to avoid being aware of his actions by the Aurora Society.

But things are different now. Hobert can investigate them openly and is not afraid of direct conflicts with them.

After such a change, Hobert suddenly found that he had many more methods at his disposal.

Hobert spent the whole morning reading documents. After lunch at MI9, he was about to continue reading documents when Georgina suddenly opened the door and came in.

Hobert put down the folder in his hand and smiled: "General Director, if you have anything to do, just ask Charlene to convey it. Why are you here in person?"

As he spoke, he stood up and asked Georgina to sit on the sofa over there.

Georgina glanced at the documents on Hobert's desk and asked, "I heard that you were checking information about the Aurora Society?"

"Yes." Hobert smiled: "The existence of these terrorists is a challenge to the peace of the entire Loen Kingdom.

"As a member of MI9, my sense of justice in my heart will never tolerate their existence."

Georgina smiled and sat on the sofa: "Tell the truth."

Hobert smiled: "I just got some information. The Aurora Society seems to have some connection with the Witch Cult, so I want to investigate."

This is the reason he had made up a long time ago. Since they are both cooperating with the Loen royal family, they must have some connection.

Georgina frowned: "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes."

However, Georgina didn't seem to care much about Hobert's answer. She asked again: "Actually, I'm curious, why do you want to destroy the Witch Cult?"

Hobert said pointedly: "This is a goal, an instruction."

Georgina nodded thoughtfully, but Hobert didn't care what she could think of.

Then the duchess added: "I'm going to hold a small dance next Friday, and this is the invitation."

Hobert took the invitation: "Just ask the secretary to send it over."

Then he asked casually: "Who is participating?"

"A few colleagues, a few friends, a few members of the royal family."

Hobert smiled and said, "Thank you for the invitation. It's my honor."

Georgina stood up and walked out while saying: "Oh, by the way, I will confer a title on you next Wednesday. Remember to make time."

"Okay." Watching the director leave, Hobert looked at the invitation in his hand again. He suddenly couldn't understand. Did Georgina come to test him? Or are you here to send invitations?

He shook his head and didn't think much about it, and continued to look at the materials in his hand.

After reading the materials in his hand, Hobert started fishing.

In the evening, Hobert had nothing to do, so he locked the bedroom door early and came to the "Land of Disorder".

Sitting on the "Iron Throne", Hobert pulled over the pile of Beyonder Characteristics and began to count the spoils of this war.

First of all, the level 0 and level 1 sealed objects have been classified before.

Moreover, in the battle report released to the public, there was no news about the death of an angel from the Witch Church who had cut off his tail to survive, or the death of the "Black Witch".

Therefore, only Hobert knows the details of these two trophies.

There is also a level 1 sealed object, which is the crystal arch that April gave to Hobert.

The only use of this arch may be to place it on the battlefield during battle, allowing enemies who can't resist the temptation to get in on their own.

Although it has the ability to roam the starry sky, there is a certain probability that it will be sent to the "primordial moon". For Hobert, that is tantamount to courting death.

Therefore, in Hobert's opinion, it is better to crush this sealed object into extraordinary properties when needed.

In terms of sealed artifacts, in addition to this arch, there are 9 level 2 sealed artifacts.

These sealed artifacts came from the Gnosis Council and were captured by Angus and others.

After naming the door made of crystal "1-112", Hobert went to check out the pile of extraordinary properties.

It is not excessive at all to use a mountain of action this time. After all, there are nearly 300 extraordinary characteristics.

Hobert quickly classified them, and there were 62 extraordinary characteristics of the "Gate" pathway, 218 extraordinary characteristics of the "Witch" pathway, and 9 extraordinary characteristics of the "Hunter" pathway.

The extraordinary characteristics of the "Gate" pathway are 1 "Mystic", 7 "Traveler", 23 "Recorder", and 31 "Astrologer" extraordinary characteristics.

No "low-sequence" Extraordinary characteristics were captured, because in this war, the Gnosis Society did not have "low-sequence" Extraordinaries participating in the war.

The extraordinary characteristics of "Mystic" and "Traveler" were captured during the raid in Jeffrey City, while other characteristics were captured from the battlefield on the front line.

It can be said that after this battle, the Gnosis Society has ceased to exist in name only. Perhaps a "Recorder" will be the top combat force of the Gnosis Society.

After classifying these extraordinary characteristics, Hobert waved again, and all the extraordinary characteristics of the "Hunter" and "Witch" paths came to him.

The extraordinary characteristics of the "Hunter" path are 1 "Reaper", 1 "Conspirator", 3 "Arsonist", 3 "Provocateurs" and 1 "Hunter" extraordinary characteristics.

Among them, the "low-sequence" extraordinary characteristics were basically captured at the headquarters of the Witch Sect.

According to reports from Schier and others who were cleaning the battlefield, there were not only "low-sequence" Beyonders there, but also hundreds of chefs, coachmen and other servants.

None of them was spared, and they were already dead the moment the corpse of the ancient god of death arrived.

The Witch Cult had already decided their fate by not evacuating these ordinary people before the war.

Hobert recovered his thoughts and continued to count the loot.

The Extraordinaries of the "Witch" path include 1 "Eternal Witch", 9 "Despair Witches", 19 "Pain Witches", 62 "Pleasure Witches", 75 "Witches", and 33 "Instigators" ", 19 pieces of "Assassin" extraordinary characteristics.

Looking at these trophies, Hobert estimated that this time he had basically killed 70% to 80% of the middle-level members of the Witch Sect. Even if they had corresponding and sufficient extraordinary characteristics, they would not be able to recover for another three to five years.

And it is impossible for them to have the extraordinary characteristics to recover their strength quickly enough. It can be said that they will not be able to recover in a few hundred years.

Thinking of this, Hobert smiled and was very satisfied with the effect of this blow.

He glanced at the pile of extraordinary characteristics in front of him. This was exactly why he hoped to use these extraordinary characteristics to form his own extraordinary power.

Because there were so many, the 25 people in Helen's team couldn't even finish them as food.

It is impossible for Hobert to give it to Jonathan and the others for no reason. After all, the Gnosis Council has not been incorporated yet.

Moreover, Jonathan and the others have a dual understanding of the Abraham family and the Gnosis Council, so their understanding of the "founder"'s subordinates will be relatively weak, and Hobert is not confident about recruiting them on a large scale.

So it’s better to just form your own force. Although it’s a little troublesome, it’s an investment in the future.

Then Hobert was a little worried about the potion formula. The potion formula of the "Gate" pathway can still be obtained from Fors, but what should I do with the potion formula of the "Witch" pathway?

You must know that part of the reason why the Tony family gave up these extraordinary characteristics is that the magic potion formula is difficult to obtain.

Hobert sighed. It was possible to trade the relevant potion formula from the Gnosis Council, but they did not have the complete potion formula for the "Witch of Despair".

For a long time to come, the Witch Sect will rarely appear in people's sights, and there will be even fewer opportunities to obtain magic potion formulas. Just when he was thinking of this, he suddenly had a bold idea.

So Hobert found a copy of the extraordinary characteristics of the "Instigator": "Relationship!"

Some knowledge of dark magic and the potion formula of "Instigator" immediately appeared in his mind: "Sequence 8: Instigator"

"Main materials: the heart of Demon Throat Honey, the poison sac of the Dark Lurker.

"Supplementary materials: 100 ml of pure water, the syrinx of Magic Throat Honey, 5 drops of blue datura juice, 10 grams of water fern powder, and one unpeeled walnut."

Hobert was stunned for a moment, then smiled: It's true!

Theoretically speaking, any extraordinary characteristic that has not been shattered contains some spiritual residue from the previous owner of this extraordinary characteristic.

In the "Origin Castle", Klein can use these spiritual residues to divine the corresponding potion formula.

Although Hobert cannot divine, he can "correlate"! After all, extraordinary characteristics are closely related to magic potion formulas!

So he quickly started from Sequence 9 "Assassin", and "correlated" from bottom to top, all the way to "Pain Witch", all with great success.

However, when linking the potion formula of Sequence 4 "Witch of Despair", only the promotion ceremony and one of the main materials were "linked".

Hobert realized: In other words, currently I can only "relate" to potion formulas below demigods!

But this is enough, because after being promoted to Sequence 2, you will definitely be able to "relate" to the magic potion formula of the demigod level, and the extraordinary power you have established at that time may not be able to use the magic potion formula of this level.

After happily classifying the extraordinary characteristics in front of him, along with the idea of ​​the potion formula, Hobert suddenly thought of the problem of Klein's "ancient scholar" potion formula.

Hobert smiled and said to himself: I wonder if Klein would feel very regretful if he told Klein that he could get the magic potion formula from the goddess of the night at the next Tarot meeting. Why didn't he think of this before?

Hobert thought again that he actually remembered the main materials of "Ancient Scholar", which were the eyes of Fulgrim's Dog and the flocculated heart of the Demonic Wolf of Mist.

He thought again: He could tell Klein the two main ingredients. After all, the value of just a part of this level of potion formula is very high!

Thinking of this, Hobert suddenly had an inspiration: I wonder if I can "correlate" some other information by "correlating" these two main materials in my mind?

In line with the principle of giving it a try without losing money, he "correlated" the two main materials of "ancient scholars".

What he didn't expect was that he immediately got a lot of information: "Sequence 3: Ancient Scholars

"Main materials: A pair of eyes from Fulgrim's Dog (also known as the Watcher of Source Castle) + a flocculated heart from the Demonic Wolf of Mist.

"Supplementary materials: 100 ml of the blood of Fulgrim's Dog + 30 grams of white frost crystals from the Demon Wolf of the Mist + a large number of real ancient historical records.

"Ritual: completely divorced from reality for at least three hundred years. Take the magic potion after you have become history and no longer belong to the current era. The essence of the ritual is to eliminate the interference of details and provide a clear and accurate positioning imprint for yourself to become an "ancient scholar", preventing Lost.”

This turned out to be the complete potion formula of the "ancient scholar"!

This result surprised even Hobert. As long as he knew the main ingredients, he could associate the complete potion formula?

Then Hobert realized: That's not the case, these potion formulas are already in my mind!

He quickly understood that this was some information he had seen when he was reading a book before.

But even as an old book lover, he couldn't memorize the complete potion formula. Only the two impressive main ingredients were remembered by him!

At this time, he used extraordinary means to restore this piece of information from his mind that he had seen but had not remembered!

Hobert smiled unconsciously: This is a huge treasure! There are quite a few magic potion recipes that appear in the original work.

Along this line of thinking, Hobert "recalled" a lot of key information.

For example, Klein also obtained the flocculated heart of the Demonic Wolf of Mist from the Goddess of Night.

When Hobert first thought about this matter, he didn't have much impression. Now it seems that because this matter involves the goddess of the night, there is a hidden interference, so Hobert can't remember it.

But now, firstly, Hobert's level has become higher, and secondly, he has been "instructed" by the goddess of the night, and he can also appear in a secret state at certain times, so he "recalls" this incident.

The idea of ​​​​"memory" seems to be like a flood that bursts a dam, and Hobert recalls more and more things that happened before he crossed over.

He was surprised to find that his memory before time travel was obviously missing. Even though he recalled many things now, the memory loss was still very obvious.

For example, Hobert was thinking hard and couldn't remember what he did before traveling through time?

But another puzzling thing is that when he and Alger were exploring the unnamed island last year, when they encountered the cultural elements of the elves, he was able to relate them to some of the knowledge he gained at work.

When he was planning to build the Extraordinary Auction House, he also remembered watching a lot of videos about auctions due to work reasons.

But he just couldn't remember what his job itself was.

Hobert realized that this matter was quite problematic!

The biggest problem is that my own memory is missing. The biggest problem is that I didn't realize that my memory was obviously missing before!

Hobert suddenly thought of some words that Amon's clone had said before, as well as Trunsoest's related description.

This should be related to the person who changed his destiny, or that existence!

But now he has no idea at all.

Hobert sighed: There is no other way but to work hard for promotion to find new clues.

And facing the unknown power in this extraordinary world, it is useless to think too much. On the contrary, it will affect your own state because of thinking too much.

So Hobert simply stopped thinking about it, and instead picked up the "Black Emperor" card on the armrest of the "Iron Throne" and looked at the last few pages.

What he mainly looked at were the rituals of Sequence 2 and Sequence 1. The ritual of Sequence 2 was to trigger a chaos involving all classes in a world-famous large city, and use the unique and unprecedented new methods proposed by the initiates. Order calms chaos. The confusion and helplessness this chaos brings to people, and the unwillingness of people to accept the new order, drink the magic potion.

Regarding this ceremony, Hobert already had some ideas when he decided to found "Earl's Light".

He will set up a new company next, and will research and produce a series of electrical products such as telephones, motors, radios, phonographs, electric cars, refrigerators, etc., thereby launching an electric revolution!

At present, just after electric lights have begun to become popular, it has caused dissatisfaction in the gas industry. In the next period of time, Hobert will definitely have a series of struggles with them, and Hobert is confident of winning.

His victory would surely bring huge chaos to the entire gas industry.

With the application of various electrical appliances and plastic products, it will have a great impact on the lives of Backlund residents, and then affect the upstream and downstream industries of all walks of life. Corresponding chaos will occur at all levels.

But because electrical appliances are more convenient and have more functions, once such a wave forms, it is definitely not something that individuals can stop.

At that time, no matter whether everyone is willing or not, they will have no choice but to accept the wave of the times.

This is lower risk than planning a rebellion in Loen to establish a new order, and it can use such a wave to plunder most of the wealth created in the Northern Continent over the past 100 years, and then use it to establish a new order in the Southern Continent. in the country.

The role it can play is greater than launching a coup.

Because even if Hobert used a coup to become the king of Loen, he would still be constrained by the church.

Hobert is very clear that the current investment in him by the Goddess of the Night is not to cause a conflict of interest between himself and the Church of the Goddess of the Night in the future.

In terms of dominance, Hobert will certainly not bow to divine authority, so when he becomes king, he may have to make plans to break with the church.

So far, none of the people, or gods, who have opposed the Seven Gods have had a good end, and Hobert certainly doesn't want to be the next one.

Therefore, establishing a country in the southern continent is the optimal solution.

In addition, tonight, Hobert discovered that his marriage to Audrey could complete the final step of this ceremony.

The sense of smell of the nobles is very keen. After Hobert made the first wave of money using electrical appliances, the nobles will definitely rush to invest in the electric power industry.

At that time, the nobles and rich people may not necessarily fall into chaos, but it may also be a huge opportunity.

But the matter of Hobert marrying Audrey was enough to make many nobles in Backlund envious, angry, and hateful, but in the end they could only accept it helplessly.

Although it is not the same thing as the electric revolution, it can make Backlund's most leisurely aristocratic class fall into a certain amount of chaos because of Hobert.

Thinking of this, Hobert smiled, retracted his thoughts, and looked at the related description of Sequence 1: "Sequence 1: Prince Killing of Sequence"

"Main material: A copy of Prince Murder's extraordinary characteristics.

"Supplementary materials: 30 grams each of the five specialties that people can associate with those who are promoted.

"Ritual: Subvert the rule of a country, or establish a country through rebellion. Create a system in the established country that goes against the common sense of the world, and establish a culture and order that is unacceptable to everyone in the territory."

This is also the reason why Hobert must establish a country, because when he reaches Sequence 1 "Prince Killer", he must have his own country.

In addition, this ritual reminds Hobert of the "United Empire" in the Fourth Age. Trunsoest and Tudor both betrayed Solomon and joined forces to establish the "United Empire".

Hobert didn't know much about the system pursued by the "United Empire", but he knew that the architectural style of the Fourth Age had always been famous for its asymmetry.

Just like the towers Hobert had seen on another planet before, the one on the left was of one style and the right was of another style. It looked like half of two completely different styles of buildings were taken and glued together.

This is an unacceptable culture.

Of course, after a few decades, people will get used to it, but in the beginning, it should be difficult for all citizens to accept it.

Such asymmetry seems to have been prevalent during the Solomon Empire, but the Solomon Empire did not control the entire northern continent.

At that time, the Kingdom of the Seven Gods was not just the headquarters of the church as it is now.

There were really seven countries at that time!

After the establishment of the "United Empire", it basically controlled the entire territory of the Northern Continent. At this time, the asymmetrical style became popular in the original Kingdom of the Seven Gods.

The ceremony for Trunsoest and Tudor to be promoted to Sequence 1 was basically completed.

It's no wonder that they completed their promotion not long after their rebellion. It turned out that their rebellion was equivalent to completing half of the ceremony.

Hobert lamented: This is really an insecure way!

It is also difficult for Hobert to build a country through rebellion, because it is a rebellion rather than a coup. You must first be loyal to the people in power of a country, and then rebel.

Just getting accepted by those in power is difficult to achieve and may take a lot of time and money.

Even the Kingdom of Loen and the Kingdom of Fenebaud cannot fully accept Hobert, because he still has the label of "The Creator's Favorite".

So it is better to overthrow the rule of a country, which Hobert has already found: the Southern Continent, a highland kingdom ruled by the "Rose School of Thought".

The current colonization of the four countries in the northern continent has not completely eliminated the Balam Empire and the Highland Kingdom. They each still have a lot of territory and population.

It's just that these two countries have been suffering from economic plunder from the Northern Continent.

When the time comes to launch an extraordinary war that can destroy the country and completely defeat the rule of the Highland Kingdom, half of the ceremony will be completed.

Taking a deep breath, Hobert once again sorted out the general plan, using the electric revolution to plunder the northern continent, and then using the plundered wealth to quickly build a country.

After taking another look at the spoils of this battle, Hobert left the "Country of Disorder".

Back in the real world, he was still not sleepy, so he thought about how to digest the potion.

The "Duke of Entropy"'s ritual has been considered, but the "Mad Mage"'s potion has just begun to be digested.

The method of launching an extraordinary war can only make the potion show signs of digestion, but it is not that obvious kind of digestion.

Hobert estimated that by launching an ordinary war, and it must be the kind of war that penetrates into another country and brings huge disasters to the people of that country, the potion can be greatly digested. After all, it is chaotic enough. .

Thinking of this, he shook his head and felt that launching a war was not the right idea. After all, he was a "Frenzy Mage", not a "War Mage".

Based on previous experience, Hobert believes that the key to digesting potions should be mainly in the aspect of "madness", and mage may be just a title.

For example, Klein's "Cunning Mage", Hobert remembers that he mainly focused on the performance of "Cunning" and did not consider the performance of "Mage".

The mage in Hobert's concept is either the kind that rubs fireballs, or the kind that eats fast, chants Buddha's name, and knocks wooden fish.

Both of these roles seem to miss the point a bit.

So how to play "Frenzy"?

Hobert thought about the previous acting directions of "The Fallen Earl" and "The Chaos Mentor" and felt that his "crazy" might be one aspect.

The main thing is to make the people in the territory become "crazy", or to make others become "crazy". This is the right direction.

Hobert smiled slightly, and then there was a very good experiment on Longtail Island that could test whether this direction was correct.

Finally, Hobert thought about Trunsoest's problem again. He planned to consult with Klein alone at the Tarot meeting the day after tomorrow to see if he had any good ideas.

……

On Sunday morning, Hobert originally planned to take a day off, but Allen, the butler at the Lord's Mansion in Jeffrey City, used the "Traveler's Gate" to report that the envoy of King Fernando II of Feneport had arrived and asked Hobert to I went to receive it personally.

Hobert was not surprised by this and came to the Lord's Mansion from the "Traveller's Gate".

Entering the main hall of the front yard, Hobert saw that the king's special envoy turned out to be the dashing Princess Ethel in a lady's tuxedo.

She smiled and said: "Congratulations on your victory. The Kingdom of Feneport also hates these secret organizations and has been working hard to fight against evil organizations. Your victory is also what we want to see.

"For this reason, the king asked me to come to condolences the soldiers in this battle and reward you personally."

The so-called rewards mainly include relaxing the policy towards South Colson and transporting a lot of supplies.

Although the Kingdom of Feneport did not explicitly stipulate the isolation of South Colson before, it did commercially stipulate that many high-tech and products could not be sold to South Colson. University professor-level scholars could not go to South Colson, which restricted South Colson. Colson area merchandise and more.

In short, almost only tourists can enter and leave South Colson normally. There are almost some restrictions and regulations for other goods and people.

In addition, there are a large number of garrisons and extraordinary forces on the two main roads leading to and from South Colson.

It is basically treated as a state within a state.

Now all these regulations have been lifted, and the garrison has basically been withdrawn.

The second reward is a financial allocation to build a railway from Feneport to Jeffrey City. All costs incurred by the railway built in South Colson will be borne by the royal family.

Moreover, the royal family was very considerate and gave Hobert the power to decide how to construct the South Colson section of the railway and to whom.

Hobert expressed his gratitude and said that he would organize manpower as soon as possible to carry out railway planning work.

It would also be good to build a railway, which would allow the South Colson area to be better connected to the outside world. Tourists can also take the train instead of just traveling by boat.

Hobert entertained Princess Ethel well and took her to visit the built city of Jeffrey. It looked like the guest and host were enjoying themselves.

When the two of them had lunch, Princess Ethel asked in a low voice: "We talked about the Castilla family members' wish to believe in the 'Creator'. Has the 'Creator' responded?"

Hobert smiled and said: "Not yet. I will mention this matter for you next time when you pray."

Although he could tell that what Ethel said this time was not a test, he did not currently need followers of the Castilla family, so he was not interested in it.

Although Ethel was a little disappointed, she did not mention this matter again.

That afternoon, the princess left by boat. When boarding the boat, she invited Hobert to bid farewell to her on the dock to go hunting at her manor.

Hobert agreed smoothly and didn't take it too seriously.

After sending Ethel away, Hobert stayed at the lord's mansion for one night.

At noon on Monday, he came to Green Manor, and sure enough he saw Forsi here.

Because they had had lunch together before, Hobert stayed for lunch today and was not driven away by Forsi.

After finishing lunch, Hobert started chatting with Forsi again, with no intention of leaving.

Forsi said a little helplessly: "It's almost time for the Tarot meeting."

"If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten." Hobert said as he lay on the bed: "What are you waiting for? Come and lie down. Do you want to attend the Tarot meeting standing up?"

　Thanks to [&Devil Whispers&] for the reward.

　　Thanks to [Tutu Loves Fish] for the tip.
