The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 786 Are you a monster?

After identifying Leo's lack of knowledge, the old man immediately found out a set of teaching plans that he had made before but never implemented, and then began to seriously teach Leo more advanced knowledge of warlocks.

Leo could feel the change in the old man's mood. After answering those few questions, the strong rejection on the old man also quickly dissipated. Although he was still very indifferent, his attitude was less hostile, and In some respects, the old man is somewhat similar to the old man Rembrandt.

In this way, one taught one another, Leo and the old man stayed in Fringilla's study for several days. During these few days of practice, they seemed to be completely devoted to knowledge.

Leo naturally absorbed all kinds of knowledge about the world's warlocks, mages, and druids taught by the old man greedily like a sponge absorbing water, and the old man was also completely immersed in this knowledge. , and sorted out the knowledge I had learned before.

Fringila has come here several times in the past few days, mainly to see how Leo's studies are going, but she left immediately after only staying for a while. Apart from the shock caused by Leo's learning ability, It is also because the smell in the room is really bad.

Both Leo and the old man were immersed in knowledge, did not wash up, Leo was not bad, he had been cleaned a few days ago, and he could pass through psionic plots when needed Dirt and dust on the body, the smell on the body is not strong .

But Alto in Blue Mountain was different. He couldn't use spells to clean himself. In addition, he had done experiments in his residence for more than ten days. During the experiment, he didn't have time to do any cleaning. Today, apart from wiping my mouth with a napkin after meals every day, I have never groomed myself.

So a sour smell had already filled the whole room, and Fringilla, who had a slight obsession with cleanliness, was completely smoked out.

The arrival of Fringela did not affect the teaching of the two. Leo was not bad. He was moderately able to control his learning progress. Learning, memorizing, and absorbing went through a cycle without any problems, while Alto became a little It was difficult, because he found that Leo's learning talent was too strong. As long as almost any knowledge was taught, the number of times did not need to be too much. As long as it was done once, Leo could quickly grasp the key points of that knowledge and master it. , become knowledge of itself.

At first, Aalto felt that this was very good, and he didn’t need to repeat the same knowledge, but soon he felt that something was wrong, because the learning progress he made was far behind Leo’s learning speed, and soon he felt that something was wrong. It is necessary to change the level of knowledge, and these lessons have not been prepared in advance, so every time Leo finishes learning a knowledge point, he needs a longer time to think about what the next teaching content is, and Leo can only sit quietly on the sidelines. Can't do anything.

For this reason, Aalto took out the few tomes in his backpack, and when he was thinking about what to teach, he asked Leo to read these books to pass the time.

Books that can be valued by Aalto are naturally very important. These books are some of the most valuable books that he rescued from the library with his experience when the Snyder Island incident happened. Spells are regarded as forbidden spells, but there are also some taboo studies, such as the study of gods, the study of resurrection, etc. The content is extremely obscure, let alone understand it, even if it is read, it is difficult for ordinary people to read.

However, reading these books is not difficult for Leo. On the contrary, he is very happy to read these books, because he found that most of these so-called forbidden spells are contrary to the current spells used by warlocks and mages. Borrowing power from the outside world to cast powerful spells, but relying on one's own power to cast powerful spells, is very similar to psionic power, so there may be a great chance that these forbidden spells can be modified into psionic skills.

On the ninth day after Leo and Alto learned the extraordinary knowledge of this world, snowflakes fell outside. The people of Toussaint were both surprised by this scene and very worried, because the snow in Toussaint, The past they know has never happened, and it is precisely because of this that most people are not fully prepared for materials such as cold resistance.

Among these materials, the wood is okay to say, there are plenty of wood available for felling around Toussaint, and food is also because the Dukes of Toussaint have the habit of storing grain, so when the Duchess began to open the grain storage to the public at a low price, the grain The problem was quickly resolved, but the clothes for keeping out the cold were not well prepared throughout Toussaint, and even the Duchess didn't have a winter coat in her wardrobe.

However, Sylvia, who has a lot of winter experience, has already thought of this. As early as the day she was canonized as a knight of Toussaint, she bought a large amount of various materials for weaving winter clothes, such as linen, cotton, etc. At the same time, she recruited a large number of weaving craftsmen with her reputation, and made a large number of ready-made clothes according to the simple winter clothes she designed.

Although Grace of Maribau, who assisted Sylvia in managing the Knights, had great admiration for Sylvia, she also had complaints about Sylvia's purchase of a large number of materials for making winter clothes and finding someone to weave the clothes. Most people agree that this cold wave that befell Toussaint will soon pass, and by then Toussaint will become the land of fine wine favored by the sun. No, it would be a waste to make so many winter clothes.

However, this voice of doubt disappeared in an instant as the snowflakes fell from the sky. All that remained was the admiration for Sylvia, who believed that she must have been inspired by the fairy in the lake, so she was so sure that it would snow .

Afterwards, in the name of the Church of the Fairies in the Lake, Sylvia assigned her knights to each village to deliver winter clothes to those who needed them for free, thereby making her reputation that had already reached its limit once again. Ascension, the prestige of the people alone has far surpassed that of the Duchess.

However, at this moment, the conspiracy against Sylvia also began to appear. Some nobles began to slander the Duchess, saying that Sylvia's bribery of people's hearts was actually a conspiracy, and wanted to encourage the Duchess to treat Sylvia. Asia to impose sanctions.

However, I don't know what kind of conditions Sylvia and the Duchess negotiated that day. The Duchess didn't care about these slander at all. Instead, she praised Sylvia's good deeds in various public occasions and expressed that she would continue to support Sylvia. , As a result, a conspiracy against Sylvia ended before it even started.

Also because of the support of the Duchess, both the Knights Order and the Church of the Fairies in the Lake were quickly established, requiring people and land.

At the same time, in Fringilla's study, Alto of Blue Mountain held a design drawing of the magic circle and carefully checked it. Since yesterday, he has been trying to find any loopholes in the design drawing. and flaws.

Although supported by special waking potions, Alto's body seemed to have reached its limit after eight or nine days of non-stop teaching around the clock. Just now he drank a bottle of specially adjusted nutritional potions to supplement the exhaustion of his body. But even this still can't make up for his mental exhaustion. From his bloodshot eyeballs, two black eye circles, and messy and pale hair, it can be seen that his spirit has begun to be overdrawn, even with mental potions. Can't make it back.

Finally, after the thirtieth inspection, Alto put down the magic circle design in his hand, looked at Leo with complicated eyes and said, "I can't find any loopholes, you have already graduated, and I have nothing to teach you. Here you go."

After finishing speaking, he lay directly on the ground and fell asleep soundly.

Although Leo also felt a little tired, he didn't just fall asleep like this. He stood up, found a quilt to cover Alto, and then activated the constant temperature magic circle in the study to isolate the cold outside, and followed He went out and ordered the servant at the door to take him to the guest room and prepare bath water and food.

After coming to the guest room, Leo ate the food brought by the servant and quickly finished it, and then ordered the servant to bring the food up continuously until he called to stop. In this way, he continued to eat for more than 30 minutes. There was enough food to feed ten big-bellied men before they stopped.

At this time, the servants in the sorceress' manor were frightened by Leo's amazing appetite, especially when they found that after eating so much, Leo's stomach didn't show any sign of swelling, which made them all feel in their hearts. I wonder where the things Leo ate went.

After digesting a large amount of food with the chaotic stomach sac and supplementing the loss in various parts of the body, Leo took off his clothes and put them directly into the wooden tub filled with hot water, taking a quiet bath, while the maid on the side helped him clean hair, beard, etc.

At this time, Fringila came over after hearing the news, and she didn't care about Leo's naked body at the moment, so she walked in like this, and asked Leo curiously: "I thought you would hold on for a few more days, but I didn't expect you to be so naked." I can't stand it any longer, how is that old guy Alto doing now?"

"Already asleep!" Leo didn't care about his current state, motioned the maid to continue cleaning his beard, and said at the same time: "I will go to Josh Manor tomorrow, are you going?"

"Tomorrow? So soon?" Fringila was stunned, and said, "Have you learned enough now? Do you need to study for a few more days, and then let Alto go with you?"

Leo shook his head and said: "No need, Aalto has nothing to teach me. I understand everything he knows, and he certainly doesn't understand what I understand. It is meaningless for him to go with me."

Fringila was completely stunned when she heard Leo say that, her face was full of surprise, and she confirmed, "What did you just say? Alto has nothing left to teach you?"

Leo looked at Fringela, nodded, and said calmly, "It's wet."

"How is this possible? How is this possible?" Fringilla murmured in disbelief.

It's no wonder that she has such an expression, because this answer is too shocking, let alone her, even the people in other sorceresses' assembly halls will show the same expression as her when they hear the news.

It takes nine years to complete all the knowledge of warlocks in normal times. Even if some of the non-study time such as entertainment, benefits, and rest are subtracted, it will take at least two years to study continuously for 24 hours. , to complete all the studies, which is just the normal studies of an ordinary warlock.

After a warlock graduates, it takes a long time to accumulate knowledge before he can become a formal warlock and have his own mage tower. This time may be decades or hundreds of years.

And Aalto has been the librarian of Thaned Island for a long time. He has read countless books and stored a huge amount of knowledge. Not to mention Thaned Isle, even in the entire world of warlocks, he is number one. .

At the beginning, the reason why Fringilla would use all kinds of relationships to save Alto was because of the knowledge in Alto's mind, and she did get a lot of benefits. At least several powerful forbidden spells came from Alto. What she got there was also these kinds of taboo spells that allowed her to occupy a certain position when she was not a founding member of the sorceress assembly.

But now Leo told her that Arto had no knowledge to impart to her. It was only nine days ago, so her first thought was that Arto was lying. But he didn't want to teach anymore, so he lied to Leo.

But she soon dispelled this guess, because if Aalto hadn't changed to the same Aalto she knew, then he would never have said such words that he no longer had the knowledge to teach.

Then there is only one possibility, that is, Leo has learned all the knowledge of Alto, and it is within nine days.

It takes nine days to learn all the knowledge that others need decades to learn. Even the most ridiculous and absurd folk tales have never happened. It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of thing is even Speaking out, I am afraid that even a fool would not think it is true.

But now she knows that this extremely absurd, unbelievable thing happened, and the person involved is still in front of her eyes.

"Are you a monster?" Fringilla stood in front of the bathtub for a long time, and it was not until the maid had finished taking care of Leo's hair and beard that she recovered from the shock and couldn't help but move The question in her heart was expressed.

At the same time as she said it, she also realized that she had said something wrong, and quickly covered her mouth.

However, Leo didn't pay attention to Fringilla's words. He covered his head with a towel, rested his head on the edge of the bathtub, and said, "If there's nothing wrong, you can leave!"

Although Leo's behavior was very rude, Fringila didn't feel angry at all. He obeyed Leo's order, walked out of the room, and closed the door.
