211. Nothing is accidental
The duel officially ended the moment Christina conceded defeat.
In fact, if Christina doesn't admit defeat, Sean will really need to work hard to solve it, because flash swordsmanship is a killing sword technique, and its essence is to kill the opponent as quickly as possible. But Christina obviously hasn't really been on the battlefield, and she hasn't tried to kill the enemy with her own hands, so naturally she won't have this killing aura on her body, and her psychological endurance will be different.
Of course, if Christina is really determined to continue the duel, then Sean will not stay, and it will never be possible to end up with no injuries on both sides as it is now, and at worst, she will end up seriously injured. However, Sean must also have to pay a little price, after all, Christina has mastered the Flash Slash, and she has also come into contact with the Flash Slash, which is far from the enemies that Sean has encountered before without high-level martial arts.
In this world, although the level of the realm is an inherent way to determine strength, among the powerhouses of the same level, the determination of strength is much more complicated. Whether you have mastered the secret arts, whether you have mastered powerful martial arts, whether you have a bloodline, whether you have awakened a bloodline, whether you have powerful equipment, etc., is the way to judge the strength of opponents of the same level.
Among the golden powerhouses that Sean met before, they were only pseudo-strongmen who had empty strength but did not have the ability to belong to the strong. This is also very similar to Cecilia today, because although she has a powerful magical ability, she is not very strong in the mastery of magic, and she can still cast low-level spells, and there are few mid-level spells, let alone high-level spells.
The only enemy that can surprise Sean is Silver.
But it's a pity that this person who is not necessarily much lower than Sean in the future. But it has been completely strangled by him.
Today, Christina can be counted as one.
Flash swordsmanship was originally in the game, and it was also the most popular sword technique among players who used swords. Because in PVP, the lethality of this skill is extremely amazing, and even if the situation is unfavorable, it can also use its instantaneous burst of propulsion to escape, so it is particularly sought after by players, but it is definitely not easy to learn this sword skill.
Christina was able to learn this sword technique, and I have to say that she did have a good teacher. Of course, it also has something to do with her natural talent. After all, Sean is now completely aware of the situation in this world, and people in this world are not like players like him, as long as he has enough proficiency points, any ability can be quickly mastered, if people in this world want to master a skill. There are requirements that go hand in hand with talent.
When he left the arena, there were only Sean and Marquis Yeles, as well as Anno and Alfred.
Christina probably needs to re-pack her emotions and mentality at this moment. to be able to adapt to her new identity. For this bet though. Sean wasn't really interested, because of course he couldn't stay too long in Lominen, and he was almost going to leave after the dinner in a few days. Of course, if he can't steal the territorial documents at that time, then he can only use special force to solve the problem.
But this, Sean really wanted to try to avoid. Because once the evidence is caught, then the group of guys in the Peace Association will not recognize Sean's legal status at all. If you want to do it with the Peace Association, Sean thinks about it for a while and thinks forget it, the kind of guy who can be the enemy of the entire world and live a good life so far. In any case, it is not an opponent that he can solve.
After leaving the arena, Marquis Yeles looked at Sean's gaze, which was slightly complicated.
The reason for the complexity is not difficult to guess.
There is no doubt that Christina is the future hope of the Cassion family, because once this family becomes a field noble, then the future development of the family must be dominated by a strong man. With Christina's ability, of course, it is not a problem to become a golden powerhouse, but now that she is easily defeated by Sean, it is very likely to cast a shadow on Christina's heart, which is naturally not beneficial to her future growth.
Moreover, Christina is also likely to become the second head of the Cassine family, but she is now Sean's maid because of the bet on the duel, and if this news spreads, it will naturally not be so good for the future reputation of the Cassine family.
Therefore, the gaze of the Marquis of Yeles is a little complicated, and of course it is a matter of course.
Walking on the road outside the martial arts arena, the atmosphere was slightly silent.
Breaking the silence, it was Sean: "I don't think it's okay to not let Christina go out to practice like this." Relying on this almost bloodless duel method, she was still unable to become a real powerhouse in the end. …… Although the gap between her and me is indeed very big, if she really doesn't admit defeat, it can still cause me a lot of trouble. ”
"You...... You've seen that? Marquis Yeles looked at Sean with some surprise, and then sighed with a wry smile, "I took her with me, and it was indeed for the purpose of letting her compete with different people to exercise her skills." But from the very beginning, there was absolutely no offense to you. ”
"Offended?" Sean's brow furrowed slightly, he felt that Marquis Yeles's words were too polite.
"Aren't you sent by Master Bony?" There was a look of surprise on Jeles' face.
Boni?
Sean's face stiffened slightly, and he finally knew why this old man, who was far above him, was so polite to himself!
It's all because of the ring on my hand.
Thinkers.
[Thinker, Legend, Wisdom +5, Will +5, Permanent Effect "Focus": It's hard to distract you from anything (it's not easy to interrupt when casting); Permanent Effect "Wise": Rich experience and life experience make you very wise (get a bonus when solving problems). Special: You have earned Bony. White's approval. 】
[Item Description: This is a plain-looking ring, but it's Bony. The gift from Professor White's mentor has a very special significance. 】
"So you're a scholar." Sean sighed helplessly, "I really haven't seen your identity yet." ”
"Hehe, you are the first person to refuse Haython's letterhead." A smile finally appeared on Yeles' face, "When I heard that you politely refused to join the research project led by Professor Bony, many people thought that you were a little unbelievable, but after seeing the introduction to the habits of the Shadow Demon Pupil Leopard in the appendix you wrote, everyone shut up, because even they don't know a magical beast that well. ”
In the face of Yeles's praise, Sean smiled bitterly, if he could, he really didn't want to have anything to do with the underground research of this temple of wisdom. Even if this research institute is indeed very important to the magic technology revolution in later generations, Sean instinctively prefers to obtain the results directly rather than participate in this kind of research project, because it means that Sean is likely to be completely exposed to the eyes of those real scholars and many great magicians.
But after thinking about it like this, Sean suddenly woke up to one thing: "So, you are also involved in the research work of the Shadow Demon Pupil Leopard?" ”
"Yes." There was a hint of excitement and pride on Yeles' face, "Thanks to Your Excellency, because of that information about the Shadow Demon Pupil Leopard, our research work has also been accelerated a lot, and it was completely completed more than a year ago. The results of this study have given us a closer understanding of shadow creatures and the Underworld, but it is still undisclosed, which led Professor Bony to lead a new research project, Magical Power. ”
Hearing this name, Sean's brow jumped slightly.
Magic power, in fact, is the predecessor of the magic core source, and it is also the premise for the beginning of the magic science and technology revolution. Basically, all Magic Technologies need an energy core to provide the power to replace the steam processes made by goblins and dwarves, thus increasing efficiency and effectiveness in all aspects, and of course the other benefit is the reduction in size.
To put it in layman's terms, it is to purify, purify, and appease the magic power, so that it becomes a battery-like thing.
It stands to reason that the research project of Magic Power should have started after 1877 in the Miracle Calendar, and after two years of research and experimentation, it was finally officially put into testing in 1879, which was the beginning of what players later commonly known as the Magic Technology Revolution. And it was also in that year that the Demon Gate was opened on the continent and the human army suffered heavy casualties, so the magic guide that was in the middle of the dispute was hastily put into use and thus laid the foundation for the replacement of forged equipment later.
But now, from Yelles's words, Sean understands one thing, the research project of Magic Guiding Technology has been advanced by nearly five years!
Then the history that was changed was the Shadow Demon Pupil Leopard's research project event!
Sean was stunned to find that he had unknowingly completely changed the history and speed of the development of this world long ago!
Originally, he had always thought that the first historical event he prevented should be the event when the Demon Gate was opened seven years later, but in the end, it was actually the scientific research speed of the entire world! So in other words, it is not an accident that Yelles, who once participated in the research project of the Shadow Demon Pupil Leopard, will appear here, but an inevitability, and it will not be an accident that he will appear here as a person who has indirectly influenced the development of historical events.
Perhaps, it was because he changed the course of history, and then because he joined Asuna's camp and tried to start a war in advance, that the territory contract document belonging to him did not fall into his hands smoothly.
Thinking of this, Sean turned his head abruptly and said in a deep voice: "Your target is the mysterious blueprint in Master Rhoda's hand?" (To be continued......)
