Chapter 440 The Roosevelt Family
"It is said that Roosevelt's ancestor got lost while playing on the edge of the Black Forest and entered the depths of the Black Forest. Later, when he was helpless, he encountered a holy white deer. Under the leadership of the white deer, he traveled in the fairyland.
He walked around for a while and then returned to the human world, but all his memories in Wonderland disappeared. He only remembered what happened and the white deer." When Leo looked at the white deer statue, he sat down
Next to him, a fat middle-aged man suddenly introduced him familiarly: "Because of this magical memory, he adopted the white deer as his family emblem, which can be seen in any Roosevelt family property."
White Deer Statue, so some people also call the Roosevelt family the White Deer Family."
Leo turned to look at the middle-aged man, stretched out his hand and introduced himself: "Leo Dodd."
The middle-aged man shook Leo's hand and introduced himself: "Leon Larson!"
"Larson?" Leo was stunned for a moment, his eyes lingered on the old family crest on the middle-aged man's pocket, and he couldn't help asking: "Excuse me, Farek Larson, who wrote the book Legends and Mysterious Creatures
It’s yours…”
Hearing Leo's question, the middle-aged man's face became a little embarrassed, even a little ashamed. He hesitated and said truthfully: "That's my old father, but he is too old and a little confused.
That's why I wrote such a ridiculous book, which made the family the laughing stock of my peers. Please don't mention this person again."
After saying that, the middle-aged man seemed to have lost interest in talking, turned around and drank the wine in his glass.
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Leo showed a strange look on his face and opened his mouth, but in the end he did not say the words that were on the edge of his throat because he felt that now was not the time to discuss these things.
The book "Legends and Mysterious Creatures" was something that Leo saw in the bookcase in his apartment. It should be a book left over from the past. At first, Leo just regarded this book as a common leisure book on the market. However, when he once
After brewing a bottle of wizard potion that he invented, he felt mentally exhausted. When he went to the study to rest, he flipped through the book at random, and then he discovered the secret hidden in the book and discovered something that interested him.
According to the classification made by the editor of this book, this book is classified into the category of absurd novels. In fact, if people who do not know the secrets hidden in this book read this book, they will indeed think that this is a fantasy novel.
An absurd novel full of fantasy.
The protagonist of the book is in the first person, so it can be regarded as the author himself. The main content is that the author was lost in the thick fog of the forest during a trip. When he passed through the thick fog, he came to a magical place.
, he saw many magical things in that place, and even saw some gods, and those gods, without exception, all appeared in front of people in human form.
The protagonist in the book lived in that place for a long time, learned the knowledge there, discussed philosophy with the gods, got married and had children with the people there, and lived a very happy life.
Until one of the gods suddenly wanted to leave there because of some of his words, the gods there were very angry until the end, but they did not impose any excessive punishment on the protagonist who caused this reason, and just banished the protagonist back to the mist.
among.
When the protagonist came out of the fog again, he had returned to the forest where he first started to get lost, and he also changed back to his young appearance, as if what happened in the past was just a dream.
The writing style of the whole book is very ordinary, and even some parts are extremely dry to read. According to the standards of the novel world of Velen, this book is completely unqualified. Let alone being published, it will probably be discarded as soon as it is sent to the editor.
Into the wastebasket.
However, the weird thing is that this book was indeed published, and the first printing volume was 5,000 copies. What is even weirder is that the publishing house that published this absurd novel is the most famous academic scholar in the Kingdom of England.
Thesis Publishing House, whose business is entirely focused on extremely rigorous academic papers, has never published a novel, let alone such an absurd novel with poor writing.
Therefore, Leo felt that the author of this book, Farek Larson, must not be an ordinary person, otherwise he would not have such a great influence on such a publishing god.
After investigation, it turned out that as he had guessed, Farek Larson was the head of the Larson family in the Kingdom of England.
To the general public, the Larson family is not famous, but in the Kingdom of England and even the entire world of Velen, the Larson family is very famous because this family has produced many famous scholars and they are very famous scholars.
family.
It’s just that compared to his famous ancestors, Farek Larson is far behind in terms of knowledge and reputation. Just relying on his family’s past reputation, he can often be mentioned in some academic magazines
He has published articles and is somewhat famous academically.
The reason why Leo was so interested in Farek Larson and that absurd novel was entirely because he discovered that everything recorded in that absurd novel was all true, but these things did not happen in Velen, but in Velen.
It takes place in the Royal City, the city of gods where humans and gods live together.
After Farek Larson broke through the fog during his travels, he went to the now ruined Royal City and lived in the Royal City for a period of time. If he did not exaggerate, he was even a guest of the gods of the Royal City, not only
Once he was invited to Anor Londe, and even judging from the content of the book, the eldest son of the god in the royal city would be considered taboo, and the destruction of all traces was also related to him. Therefore, he was exiled back to the thick fog, and finally
Returned to the world of Velen.
After Leo investigated the situation about Farek Larson, he decided to find time to meet this person. Now after meeting Farek Larson's son, he discovered that Farek Larson
It seems that Erson was regarded as an Alzheimer's patient by his family because of this absurd novel.
Just when Leo was thinking about things, the side door of the hall opened, and a middle-aged man in simple clothes walked in, surrounded by some famous dignitaries from Port of Set, and then sat down in the master's seat of the hall. Other dignitaries were also there.
Under the guidance of the attendants, they sat down in their appropriate positions.
From the arrangement of the guests by the Roosevelt family, it can be seen that the Roosevelt family is still a traditional aristocratic family, even though they are transforming into a business aristocracy.
Those nobles with titles were specially arranged around the owner of the hall, which was the center of the entire banquet. In addition, other big businessmen and large factory owners were arranged in the surrounding area, and other main members of the Roosevelt family were responsible for receiving them as a sign of respect.
These people attach great importance to the political figures who are carefully arranged together according to their party relationships, so that they can keep enough distance and can easily gather together to talk and chat.
As for other ordinary small officials, businessmen and scholars, they were scattered throughout the hall, and this arrangement was not made casually. These people were surrounded by powerful people. As long as they had a little ability, they could use this banquet to benefit themselves.
Get a good opportunity.
For example, although Leo is currently on the edge of the banquet, the people around him include scholars, machinery factory directors and dealers, investors, etc. It is obvious that the Roosevelt family investigated him when arranging seats.
Some of his past behaviors, such as that of a scholar, may be due to his previous actions of purchasing large quantities of professional academic books, etc.
When the clear sound of the spoon hitting the silver cup spread throughout the banquet hall, everyone's conversations stopped, and their eyes were focused on Diffie Roosevelt, who was holding the spoon, and Leo's attention was also at this time.
Back to the party.
It was only when Leo saw Diffie Roosevelt that he showed a slightly surprised look, because he felt a very weak psychic wave from Diffie Roosevelt, which meant that Diffie Roosevelt was moving towards the spirit.
Those who can transform.
At the same time, through the observation of the spiritual network, he also found some gadgets belonging to wizards on Diffie Roosevelt. From this, it seems that this Diffie Roosevelt should be a wizard apprentice who has just received enlightenment.
After making this discovery, Leo suddenly became interested in this banquet. When Diffie Roosevelt was saying some words about the banquet, he also used the mental network to check the situation in the Roosevelt mansion.
Leo once visited the Nielsen couple's villa in the Garden Villa District. At that time, he used the spiritual network to explore the situation in the villa area. He found that many houses in the villa area here were equipped with such psychic disruptors. Obviously, these
The owners of the villa should all know something about another mysterious world and be prepared for it.
So when Leo arrived at the Marquis Roosevelt Mansion, he took it for granted that the Roosevelt family must also have installed a psychic jammer in the mansion, so he did not release his psychic power to check the situation.
But when Leo began to use the mental network to explore the Marquis Roosevelt's Mansion and prepared to forcefully break through the psychic interference, he found that the Marquis Roosevelt's Mansion was very clean.
Some factors that could cause interference have also been eliminated.
The reason for this is that the layout of the entire mansion garden is clearly an enlarged version of the Turing roots. These Turing roots can clear interference and stabilize energy. It is obvious that the person who made this arrangement has a deep understanding of the spirit.
He has a deep mastery of energy or other psionic powers.
Although he was surprised, Leo could also vaguely guess why he would do this. The person who arranged all this obviously wanted to give certain people with special characteristics a greater chance of opening their psychic powers.
In Leo's eyes, these individually arranged Turing radicals are very simple. Only three basic radicals are used. When combined together, they regulate energy. They are usually used in wizards' laboratories. This is to allow wizards to obtain a
A stable environment minimizes the external factors of experimental failure. For example, a similar magic circle is installed in the laboratory modified by Leo, but it is countless times more powerful than the Turing characters in the Marquis Roosevelt Mansion.
The reason why Leo is clever is not because Leo used four basic radicals to form a Turing radical that has the same function but a stronger effect, but because he connected these Turing radicals together to form a complete cycle.
The magic circle, but now the Turing roots in the Marquis Roosevelt's mansion only exist alone, and there is no wizard's method to connect them.
However, although these Turing roots are not connected using the wizard's method, other external methods are used to amplify the effect of each Turing root. Leo speculates that this method is probably the natural way of the shaman.
And what created this effect was probably the beautifully manicured gardens surrounding the mansion.
Although Leo has some knowledge of shamanism, he does not know the more specific way of shamanism. He only knows that gardeners can adjust and amplify the effect of Turing root by just planting some ordinary trees.
, it can be seen that this shaman's way is not only not weaker than the wizard's witchcraft in terms of practicality, but is even better.
"It seems that the Roosevelt family is not as simple as outside rumors say." Leo couldn't help but think.
Whether it is the Turing root in the mansion or the identity of Diffie Roosevelt as a wizard apprentice, it shows that the Roosevelt family has very close contact with the underground world. The Roosevelt family may even be a very rare family of extraordinary people.
In the world of Velen, among the extraordinary beings, Familia and Familia-like are the most numerous. Take the Night Watchmen, who specialize in hunting down criminal Familia. They are all Familia themselves, but most of them are artificially implanted with certain Familia cells.
and organs, gained some extraordinary power, and through targeted training, the implanted power was improved, and finally gained the same power as the real Familia.
In addition, there are many people who have awakened some power due to some unknown reasons. Most of these people have been won over by the well-informed church, and some who have slipped through the net will become wizards or other
Extraordinary.
But among all the extraordinary beings, there is another category that is created through special training. These extraordinary beings usually have the same bloodline and have the factors of extraordinary beings in their own bloodline, so this type is also called
Extraordinary family.
However, according to the information in Leo's hands, there are only a handful of extraordinary families in the entire Velen world, and it is obvious that the Roosevelt family is not among them.
Logically speaking, the Roosevelt family is so famous in the Kingdom of England, and they were even more powerful when they were palace aristocrats. Their every move was watched, so any abnormal situation should be known to others.
If the Roosevelt family is a family of extraordinary people, then they have already been discovered by the church or underground forces, and there is no way there is no sign like now. Therefore, Leo can't help but suspect that the Roosevelt family may not have become a family of extraordinary people for a long time. It should be in that year
