Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 Serious social reception is not very suitable for Jenkins, especially since he doesn't know most of the people here. After bidding farewell to Earl Biden, she returned to Dolores and found that she was no longer where she was. Later, after asking the young ladies around, she was found at the long table.

　　Dolores is talking to a lady with silver hair and crutches, but still holding a wine glass. Seeing that Jenkins came over, he took the initiative to introduce the two sides. The lady was actually Dolores' aunt, and the sister of her deceased mother.

　　 "Baron Jenkins Williams? I've heard your name a long time ago."

　　 She was very kind to Jenkins. In addition to asking a lot of information about his family, she also asked about his planned residence time in Ruen.

　　 And to say goodbye to this kind lady temporarily, it was half an hour later. Jenkins found that most of the people at this reception were very talkative.

　　 "Do you have a lot of relatives? I noticed that Loen's nobles seem to have a relationship with the royal family. This is completely different from the withering of the royal lineage of the Fedictelli."

　　 Jenkins asked in a low voice while holding the glass of juice, unaware that the cat on the shoulder was stretching his head and trying to put his head into the glass.

"There are indeed many relatives in our family. In fact, the royal families of various countries will have many distant relatives. After all, nobles are used to intermarriage, and families with a little history can be involved with the royal family. Even the Middleton family in your kingdom, even if they are looking for Don't you have many distant relatives if you don't have direct descendants?"

　　 She answered Jenkins' question in a low voice, and then suddenly smiled sweetly:

"Jenkins, I heard your story from the teacher some time ago. When you went to Beldiran last fall, you seemed to be attending a banquet at Beldiran with the famous Miss Jessica Windsor. Later, I accepted other people's invitation to a duel at the banquet.

　　 "Yes, that happened half a year ago. I only talked to Alexia once, but I didn't expect her to remember it."

　　 "There are very few formal duels in this era. Listening to the teacher said that you can win easily, and you can defeat the opponent with just one sword."

　　 "The opponent is an ordinary person, this kind of victory is not something to boast about."

　　 His hands made gestures across his chest.

　　 "Then if it is possible, would you fight someone else for me?"

　　 Dolores asked suddenly. Jenkins turned to see the rosy face on her face, and he kept reminding himself that the other party was only sixteen years old and was two years away from the agreed marriage contract.

"of course."

　　 He nodded vigorously.

　　 "You won the duel at the time, did you get any prizes?"

　　 she asked again.

　　 "Many ladies stuffed me their handkerchiefs or accessories, and Miss Windsor gave me her earrings. It is really a beautiful earring."

　　 Jenkins exclaimed.

"wait."

　　 Dolores said, and then asked Jenkins to block her, and she bent down mysteriously not knowing what she was doing. After a while he straightened up again, and put a strap into Jenkins' hands.

　　 "This is for you."

　　 It was a beautiful purple ribbon with lace decoration, at least Jenkins thought it was a ribbon.

"What does it mean?"

　　 he asked hesitantly.

　　 Dolores smiled and did not answer, but seemed quite satisfied with what she did.

　　Because they are not the protagonists of the reception, there is no need for the two of them to stay here till the end. After eleven o'clock and the host of the banquet, the old earl said goodbye, and returned to the manor in the suburbs in a carriage. The people in the manor were still not asleep. Alexia heard Jenkins talk about the details of his conversation with Earl Biden, and then suggested that after returning to Nolan, he would take time to visit Berdyland.

　　 "Do you know something?"

　　 Jenkins asked suddenly.

　　 "Why do you ask like this?"

　　 The short lady asked suspiciously, Jenkins could only think that she was too caressed.

　　 Later, I remembered the belt Dolores had put on herself at the reception, and when she wanted to go to find Alexia, she first met Julia in the hallway holding a teapot and walking towards the kitchen. So he took out the strap to ask her opinion. Unexpectedly, the beautiful maid blushed, gave Jenkins a fierce look and stepped on the stairs and quickly disappeared to the corner downstairs.

　　Unknown, Jenkins could only knock on Alexia’s door. After explaining his doubts, Alexia laughed:

　　 "I didn't expect her to be so bold."

　　 "So what is this?"

　　 Jenkins shook the ribbon around. Seeing that he had the urge to put that thing in front of his nose, Alexia quickly grabbed his wrist:

"Didn't the two ladies of Nolan teach you the most basic common sense? Or when you were in bed with Hesha, you never cared how she undressed? This is obviously a garter belt. Tie the stockings."

　　 "Garter belt?"

　　 Jenkins fell into silence, staring blankly at the strap in his hand.

　　 "I think you probably understand what it means to give this kind of private item. If you have the will, Dolores' room next door should be unlocked..."

　　 "Please stop talking!"

　　 Jenkins interrupted her quickly, then shook her head like a cat crawling out of the water:

　　 "Are the girls now mature so early?"

　　 "She is sixteen years old, it's not very early."

　　 Alexia was wearing her pajamas, leaning against the door frame with her hands on her chest and said. Because she was about to rest, her hair was only scattered behind her. This was one of the few conditions that kept her hair soft and long.

　　 "No, sixteen years old is still a minor, eighteen years old can be considered an adult."

　　 Jenkins said in a flustered manner, turned around and left after hurriedly leaving.

　　 "Are the men now mature so late?"

　　 The short lady leaned against the door frame and said lamentingly.

Chapter 1404 Chapter 1381: Extraordinary Combination

　　 In addition to the "garter incident" that caused Jenkins's reverie, the most important thing tonight is the month-end whisper once a month. Jenkins spent the end of last month on the train. He also lived in Ruen for more than a month in a blink of an eye, but he still doesn't know when he will return to Ruen.

　　 "May is coming in a few minutes, so time flies really fast..."

　　 Thinking like this, he gently turned the slightly hot brass-colored **** to turn off the gas lamp on the bedside, and then touched the chocolate lying on the pillow before getting into the quilt.

　　Because he was a little tired, he fell asleep before the zero clock struck. Therefore, when those whispers and whispers seemed to come from the horizon, Jenkins didn't even know whether it was a dream or reality.

April belongs to the righteous **** [The Storm Ruler] and controls the ocean and wind. Most believers live in coastal areas, but a small number of ethnic groups living in the inland who have a tradition of worshiping [wind] also believe in this god; and May belongs to the righteous **** [ No Light Moon], in charge of the moon and the night. It is well known that in the night of the material world, the moon in the sky actually has three rounds, and the invisible one is the incarnation of the **** [No Light Moon].

This **** is equally powerful, and because it has the description of "the invisible moon", it also has some of the powers of [lie] [shadow] and other clergy, and even in some sayings, it also involves the [negative energy of death] 】field.

　　 Anyway, what the two great righteous gods said at the end of the month, Jenkins couldn't understand at all. Even if his soul was close to God, but after all, he did not completely break free from the shackles of the flesh.

　　 When the whispers at the end of the month appeared, loud and holy singing came from the foggy surroundings. With the emergence of the passive wind, Jenkins endured a headache and looked forward. The silhouettes of men and women met at an extremely high altitude. Even though there were only clouds and fog in the sky, in Jenkins's perception, it seemed that while thunder and lightning were being added, a huge invisible celestial body was floating above him.

　　 This feeling is very terrifying, as if a very weird huge existence is staring at him at close range, and he can feel it but can't see it. This kind of irritation and fear can even drive people crazy.

　　 But fortunately, it all came to an end very quickly. I opened my eyes and the red and blue moonlight shot into the house from the spacious row windows and shone on Jenkins. Jenkins' shadow tilted slightly, completely covering the chocolate beside the pillow.

　　 He stared at the ceiling, and after a while he got up from the bed and came to the desk. Turn on the gas lamp connected to the steam pipe and take out the pen and blank notebook.

　　 The cat on the bed did not move, but looked at Jenkins's back with one eye open, very dissatisfied with his habit of working without sleeping in the middle of the night.

　　 As always, the harvest from the whispers at the end of the month is often related to the priesthood of the two righteous gods. Of course, there will be exceptions.

　　 For example, in the information Jenkins just obtained, there are some related to the combination and synthesis of extraordinary items. As long as items that contain spirits are involved, their synthesis or combination is dangerous and complicated, because there are never two exactly the same things in this world, and even the existence of multiple tricks or transcendents, with the same name among the individuals. The difference.

　　 The knowledge gained this time tells in detail how to correctly use the principle of swallowing the same kind, combining spiritual items and even numbered items. This is quite incredible knowledge, Jenkins originally thought that he could only obtain it from the righteous **** [handsman].

　　 "If you follow this design idea..."

　　 He took a pen and wrote ancient runes in a blank notebook, and drew a sketch next to it. Half an hour later, he put down the pen, frowned and looked at what he wrote on the table.

　　 is not complete and specific knowledge after all, even if the knowledge he has just acquired is no matter how secret it is, there will be big problems in its application. The first attempt at design was not considered a success. He also understood that this kind of thing was pure luck, and it was enough to try once. If you want to be proficient in this way, you still have to rely on usual learning and practice.

　　 called out his cane and put it on the table, then returned to the bed, and said to the chocolate who was asleep with his eyes closed:

　　 "Chocolate, wake up."

　　 Cat's closed eyes trembled, but they did not open. Its breathing is still very even, with its two front paws under the body, and the whole cat seems to sleep deeply.

　　 "Chocolate, can you give me the bead that I showed you to play with?"

　　 Jenkins poked his cat with a finger, and then shrank back abruptly to prevent it from taking revenge. But the chocolate still didn't wake up, still asleep.

　　 He can now conclude that the cat must be pretending to sleep. Chocolate is very alert when she sleeps, and any wind and grass will be caught by it.

　　 "Since you are asleep..."

　　 He deliberately said "softly", and then stretched out two hands to insert through the gap between the chocolate body and the soft bed, and then gently hugged it.

　　 "...Then take it yourself."

　　Chocolate really likes the orb that can produce a "actinic" effect. On weekdays, as long as I have time, I push it to roll around and play. Sometimes when sleeping, I put this bead in front of my nose and exhale and exhale evenly into it. In a few cases, it is like an old hen who is incubating an egg, pressing the bead under her body to sleep, and it is invisible that the cat can even feel the beans under the seven or eight layers of bedding.

　　 "Meow~"

　　 Jenkins held the cat in one hand, and took the beads on the bed with the other hand. Then he opened his eyes, meowing and struggling in his hands, trying to defend his property.

　　 It easily broke free from Jenkins' hands and jumped back on the bed, and then stood in front of the bead and made a threatening sound at Jenkins that had no deterrent effect.

　　 "I really need it."

　　 Jenkins squatted by the bed, stretched out his hand and touched the chocolate head. He was still on the angry cat's face just now, and immediately showed aggrieved expression. It looked at Jenkins pitifully, then looked down at the bead he was protecting, and it took a while to push it to Jenkins with its paws.

When 　　 made this movement, his head was still twisted behind him, pretending that he couldn't bear to look at it.

　　 "Hey, I will get you some good things to eat tomorrow. There will be more fun toys in the future, don't be so sad."

After comforting the cat for a while and giving it the ring with the black stone seal, he returned to the desk and put the milky white pearl-like beads in the box of the ink bottle next to him, and then picked up the walking stick, slowly Inject spirit to deform it.

Chapter 1405 The first thousand three hundred and eighty-two chapters come in May

　　 With the infusion of spirit, the cane grows upwards at the same time as the radius becomes thicker like a slow-growing sapling. A few seconds later, the scepter that had only been used once in the form of the child reappeared, but this was not over yet. Jenkins continued to control the twisted vines to grow upward, but this part did not twist.

　　 is deformed to such a degree, in addition to the normal part of the scepter, the top of the scepter is four or five vines like flowering petals. Jenkins breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the bead in his left hand, carefully placed it on the top of the scepter, and controlled the untwisted vine at the top to slowly wrap it inward.

　　 This process is extremely slow, and it can cause serious problems if you are not careful. The slowly closing vine finally clings to the milky white bead, twisting on its surface like a serpentine crawling snake.

　　 After everything was done, the scepter itself spontaneously showed a green light, and the bead dotted on the top of the scepter appeared milky white.

　　 The two kinds of lights merge together, making the room bright. But the light only lasted for a short time before it disappeared. Jenkins let go of his hand to let the scepter fly into the air spontaneously, and then watched as a slight crack appeared on its surface but quickly recovered.

　　 Repeated this way two or three times before the scepter fell from the sky and returned to Jenkins' hands.

Although only one more bead was added, Jenkins unexpectedly felt that it became heavier. This heaviness has a weight in the practical sense, and there is also a "heaviness" in the instant perception of skin contact. These phenomena undoubtedly explain this. This integration was very successful.

　　 The scepter of life after the fusion of the orb, because the concept of "light" is added to the basis of "life", it has a better effect on stimulating the growth of plants. Another function is that Jenkins can activate the orb at the top of the scepter anytime and anywhere. When he lifts the scepter high, the darkness will be dissipated, and the dazzling white light will disturb the vision of everyone nearby (including himself).

　　 "So I worked hard all night just to add a light technique ability to my weapon?"

　　 can't help but feel a little depressed thinking about this, so he changed the scepter back to the shape of a cane. As the twisted withered vines continue to shrink inward, the beads at the top are also shrinking. When the cane reappeared, it was decorated with a small pearl on the top.

　　 Jenkins has seen many nobles’ walking sticks with gems or gold ornaments on the top, but has never seen anyone decorate the sticks with pearls. But not waiting to admit that the fusion of the two is quite perfect, at least it seems that this "pearl" is not abrupt.

　　 "Well, at least it's still rewarding."

　　 He comforted himself in a low voice, then sat back at the table and sorted out the harvest from the end of the month.

　　 In addition to the secret knowledge of item combinations, the complete knowledge also has two unique abilities and three interesting rituals.

　　 The two abilities are [Bimonthly sympathy (white foundation)] and [magic moon magic (yellow spell)].

　　 The former is the iconic ability of the night watchmen of the righteous **** [No Light Moon], and is the prerequisite for most of its magical abilities. In addition, according to the secret technique of [Night and the Secret Church], this ability can also help the gifter to absorb spirits, and it is more efficient than Jenkins copying those twisted tadpoles.

　　 But it is obvious that it is impossible for him to learn this ability. Once discovered, it is not easy to fool it.

The latter is a rare illusion type spell. Casting in the dark night can create an illusion in a certain space. Except for a small amount of magic eyes, this illusion can only rely on the gifter’s own perception. Broken; during the day to cast [Moon Magic], it will enter the dark night within a certain range centered on itself. This dark night is between the illusion and the reality, and the abilities of the people who watch the night will be extremely great in the dark night. The bonus even automatically has [Dark Vision], so this ability is quite useful.

The three rituals are [Ocean Memories] [Bloody Red Moon] and [Bonus of the Moon]. The [Ocean Memories] ritual can help the gifter to trace back what happened on the surface of the ocean in a certain area. It is mostly used to track missing ships and search for them. Pirates; [Bloody Red Moon] is a healing ritual. A large amount of blood is used to match the red moon in the full moon state. It can heal more serious injuries. Of course, the blood here can make any creature's blood, as long as there is no Corruption can be used.

As for the last [Bonus of the Moon], it was born out of the rituals of worshipping the moon, praying to the moon, and offering sacrifices. This ceremony requires the cooperation of hundreds of people. After a banquet to celebrate the harvest, a bonfire, grain, Drinks and complex ceremonial dances are coordinated to enable large areas of farmland to have a good harvest in the coming year.

Jenkins has only heard of this ritual from his father, because in this era, praying for a good harvest will use the ritual of the righteous **** [Mother of the Earth] in the spring, and the ancient moon worship tribes who use the [gift of the moon] in autumn are rare .

　　 Although I have not acquired the ability or rituals that are helpful to myself, it is good to have more knowledge. It was close to three o'clock after finishing this knowledge, Jenkins returned to the bed after clearing the desk.

　　 wanted to touch the chocolate and then fall asleep, but unexpectedly the cat avoided Jenkins's hand and moved to the bedside to sleep on its stomach. Because this bed is very big, the distance between one person and one cat is actually quite far apart. No matter how stupid Jenkins is, he knows that Chocolate is still angry about what happened just now.

　　 "Okay, it's my fault, I shouldn't go wrong."

　　 He said in a low voice, feeling a little embarrassed to be so soft to his cat suit, but he also knew that this thing was indeed a problem with his own doing.

　　 then refers to the ring under the chocolate paw.
