Chapter 410: Angry Leon
When everything in Maro City was developing in a good direction, Duke Lyon, the nominal owner of Maro City, was not happy.
He slammed the table in the study, then pointed at his uncle Lucario with one hand, and asked angrily: "Didn't we agree that we would just pretend to participate in Ethan's "magic guide plan".
Why did you make a fake play real and provide them with the most important memory space inscription of our family?
Now that the magic guide equipment is about to be developed, what if Ethan uses it to deal with me.
What do you think I should do?
Can you tell me why you do all this?"
When it comes to fake play, Lucario smiled bitterly.
Yes, that's right, the most core energy storage inscription of [Pyroblast Cannon] was provided by him.
This is the bottom of the Duke's house.
Since this inscription was obtained, the research and development of the Pyroblast Cannon has been on the fast track. It can be said that all research is carried out around it.
It is no exaggeration to say that without this inscription, there would be no Pyroblast Cannon today.
And there are many reasons why Lucario is willing to take it out.
First of all, the R\u0026D work atmosphere at that time deeply infected him.
After all, he is a magician. He has been busy fighting for power and profit every day for these years. He almost forgot that the main job of a magician is to explore the world.
He put a lot of energy on meaningless things, which led to his personal practice being stagnant.
Even if there are endless resources for him to practice, it is still the same.
And this time, participating in the "Magic Guide Project", due to the influence of those diligent colleagues around him, he seems to have regained the feeling of his youth.
At that time, classmates and teachers did not have so many thoughts and concerns.
Everyone was energetic and passionate. Every day, they gathered together to discuss astronomy and geography, numerology and physics, and magic construction...
That time was so beautiful, making progress every day, growing up every day...
Every time he thinks of it, Lucario misses it very much.
Now he dreams of those years, he cherishes this opportunity very much and devotes himself to research.
Every day, he discusses various magic knowledge with magic professors, constructs magic formulas, and creates various new inscriptions guided by formulas.
Due to his wholehearted devotion, he found that the bottleneck that had not been broken for decades had actually shown signs of loosening.
During this period, he clearly felt that he was much more adept at both meditation and magic construction.
Most importantly, he sensed that there was something indescribable in the depths of his soul that kept calling him.
He had guessed that it was the power of rules that he had always longed for but could not get.
At the same time, he also knew that this might be the closest he had ever been to the position of a sage in his life.
Therefore, he devoted himself to the research even more selflessly.
As a result, during a heated discussion with his colleagues, he suddenly understood something, and then his uncontrolled momentum was fully released, which scared the people around him.
He understood what happened at the time, and silently congratulated himself on his promotion to a sage.
However, he did not explain to everyone, and the people around him just thought he was joking and did not take it to heart.
But that day, when Ethan came out of the laboratory, he glanced at him, was stunned for a moment, and then smiled at him slightly, revealing a congratulatory look.
Then he left silently.
Do you think it's over?
No, that night, Ethan personally brought him a big cake and held a celebration ceremony for him at the Fire Blast Center Manor.
It was not until then that people knew that he had been promoted to a sage.
Magicians have a set of celebration ceremonies for their promotion to sages, called the Dance of the Gods.
It's probably that men have to wear women's skirts and do a tap dance without underwear.
Metaphor: Gods bestow grace, magic makes one's will clear, gentlemen hide their eggs, villains hide their chickens.
The newly promoted sage will spread magic for the gods with an open mind.
It was also that night that Lucario took out the bottom of the Duke's Mansion.
Of course, he was suspected of being impulsive, but more of it was thoughtful.
Now that Leon asked about this, he had to give a reasonable explanation.
"My dear Duke!"
At this point, Lucario paused and bowed deeply to Leon.
"My dear nephew, please allow me to call you that. I am sorry that I made this decision without informing you.
However, I can assure you that I have no selfish motives. I am doing this for the Stein family and for you."
"For me?" Leon couldn't help laughing: "My dear uncle, you said it better than singing.
You took our family's secret to please others, and you actually had the nerve to say it was for me. You are really good!"
Hearing the words "secret", Lucario felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.
However, he did not regret doing so, and replied expressionlessly: "I know you still have the heart to compete with Ethan, but I advise you to give up!
I think you should have received the news that he is an ascender.
Like Anastasia, the [God of Death] a thousand years ago, an invincible existence.
No matter what method you use, you can't defeat him.
The only thing that can defeat him in this world is time!
And as long as you can't defeat him head-on, your forbearance, your conspiracy, and everything you do, are meaningless.
This is cruel, but it is true!
You see, you spent so many resources and tried so hard to raise an army, but he didn't respond at all.
This is the confidence brought by absolute strength.
The legion you raised has no meaning other than to intimidate other nobles.
The saddest thing is that you are obviously paying those people's salaries, but Ethan just sent one of his knights to work for the army.
Just sending some beef, mutton and wine, the army seemed to have become his private army.
How funny this is.
Now in the hearts of the legionnaires, Ethan is their real leader, and you... are only in name only. "
Speaking of the Legion, Leon was so angry that his face turned the color of pig liver.
He finally worked hard to build a strong enough team, but he was picked off without doing anything.
That Ethan sent one of his men, a knight named Embiid, to seize command of the legion with a batch of military supplies.
This is a joke wherever it is placed, but it actually happened.
Everyone obeyed Embiid's orders and had long forgotten who was paying them.
And even if he wanted to withdraw from this legion, he couldn't do it, because after all, he was the nominal master of Maruo City.
Facing the provocation of other lords, if the master withdraws his legion first, it is not a matter of shame.
But the whole family has no meaning of existence.
This matter has almost become a worry for Leon.
However, he immediately realized that this matter had nothing to do with his uncle betraying family interests.
Then he said: "Is it because Ethan is too powerful, so you are afraid? Is this the reason why you betrayed the family?"
