Lord of the Secret Art! - Chapter 518
Chapter 518 Conferment
A week later.
In the palace of the King of Heidelberg, a grand conferring banquet is underway.
Wearing a crown, Celestino Diamutini, King of the Kingdom of Heidelberg, put an exquisite duke medal on the left chest of Flynn wearing a dress.
Then he picked up the title certificate of a large villa in the capital and handed it to Feilin.
Knowing that Feilin has become extraordinary, the royal family held this banquet. In addition to rewarding Feilin with a large villa worth tens of millions in the capital, they also raised Feilin’s title to Duke.
Every extraordinary person is a strong man standing at the apex of the world. Once such a strong man appears, the kingdom will try its best to win him over.
After all, in today’s world, besides the Kingdom of Heidelberg, there are two kingdoms, the Kingdom of Porto and the Kingdom of Karano. The Kingdom of Heidelberg is not the only choice.
If it causes the dissatisfaction of the superpowers and switches to the Kingdom of Porto or the Kingdom of Karlo, these two kingdoms will definitely welcome it.
It is not impossible for such a thing to happen. Seventeen years ago, Arlin Longman, the superhero of the Kingdom of Porto, switched to the Kingdom of Karlo because of his dissatisfaction with the royal family of the King of Porto.
The conferring ceremony was over, and one nobleman after another stepped forward to congratulate Flynn.
“Mr. Sox, congratulations on your promotion to Duke!”
Wearing a luxurious golden court dress, First Princess Emilia Diamutni stepped forward and said with a smile.
“Thank you, Your Royal Highness.”
Flynn smiled and thanked.
Has an extraordinary status, even if he doesn’t have a title, he can’t shake his status in the Kingdom of Heidelberg.
However, he was very satisfied that the royal family could grant him a villa located in the royal capital where every inch of land was expensive, and elevate his title to Duke.
Especially the title of duke, even for him who is already the chief elder of the Security Bureau, it is quite useful.
The identity of the chief elder of the Security Bureau is, after all, an identity that is not easy to disclose to the outside world, and it is not suitable for many occasions.
But the status of the duke is different, it can be applied to any occasion, and in terms of practicality, the status of the duke is more practical.
After the first princess, the first prince and the second prince stepped forward one after another to congratulate Flynn.
Following the three of them, the Duke and Earl who attended the banquet also stepped forward to congratulate Flynn.
As for the earl, they are not qualified to participate in this banquet at all. After all, this is a grand duke conferring banquet held in the palace, and ordinary nobles are not qualified to participate.
“That’s the first princess, that’s the first prince, that’s the second prince…”
In a corner of the banquet, Rowling and Claude looked at the nobles who kept coming forward to congratulate Flynn, their eyes could not stop being shocked.
The nobles, each of whom is a big shot they don’t usually see, now congratulates Flynn with politeness and even flattery.
What shocked them even more was that Flynn was awarded the title of duke and became a top nobleman.
They have limited knowledge of the Security Bureau, so they don’t have a clear understanding of Flynn’s position in the Security Bureau.
But they are very clear about the title of duke, and they know what it means.
After the banquet was over, Flynn and Lindy left the palace in a carriage, but the two did not return to Harrowen Villa, but came to another villa.
This villa is also located in the Tulip District, and it is the villa bestowed on Feilin by the royal family.
The carriage stopped at the villa, and Flynn and Lindy got off the carriage.
Upon learning of Felin’s arrival, a group of servants and maids dressed as servants, as many as forty or fifty people, came forward.
Among them, there are two people dressed differently from others, one is a middle-aged man and the other is a middle-aged woman.
The two brought their servants and maids to salute Flynn and Lindy, and called out.
“My lord, Miss Lindy.”
“Um.”
Filin nodded slightly and asked.
“What are your names?”
“My lord, I am Matthew Pinsent, the housekeeper of the villa, and she is Mary Hannah, the head maid of the villa.”
The middle-aged man introduced.
While granting this villa to Fei Lin, the royal family also arranged corresponding servants for Fei Lin.
After all, Feilin has a special status and must pay attention to the confidentiality of information. If ordinary people are hired, spies are likely to be mixed in.
In addition, the salary of all the servants in the villa and the daily expenses of the villa are also the responsibility of the kingdom.
Simply put, everything in the villa, including daily living expenses, is free of charge for Feilin.
It is a bit like the “senior civil servant” in the previous life, specially equipped with servants, and everything is provided by the state.
“Pincent, show us around.”
Flynn gave instructions to the housekeeper, Matthew Pinsent.
“Okay, Your Excellency, Miss Lindy, this way please!”
Matthew Pinsent responded, leading the way for the two, took them around the villa, and introduced the layout of the inner villa to them.
“This is the main building of the villa, here is the house for banquets, here is the guest room, here is the garden, and here is the swimming pool…”
It took a while for Flynn and Lindy to finish visiting the entire villa.
The villa is very large, and in terms of area, it is also in the forefront among the villas in the Tulip District, and it is only slightly smaller than the villas such as Harrowen Villa.
Letting the housekeeper do his own work, Flynn and Lindy walked in the main building of the villa.
The main building of the villa has a total of three floors. The first floor has a hall, living room, kitchen, etc.
On the second floor, there are study rooms, library rooms, collection rooms and other rooms.
The third floor has several bedrooms, and each bedroom is fully furnished, including beds, wardrobes, bedside tables, quilts and sheets, etc.
Flynn and Lindy entered each bedroom to watch, and watched all the bedrooms.
“It’s quite complete.”
After watching, Lindy commented.
“I feel a little worse.”
Felin shook his head slightly with his right hand resting on his chin.
“It’s quite complete, what’s missing?”
Lindy was a little puzzled.
Everything in the villa was arranged by the royal family, and even she, who was quite picky, couldn’t pick out any flaws.
“There is still a hostess.”
Flynn stared at Lindy with burning eyes.
“Then you have to work harder.”
Feeling Flynn’s scorching gaze, Lindy didn’t shyly avoid her gaze like ordinary women, but said with a smile on her face.
“Okay, then I’ll try harder.”
Flynn smiled.
The next day, Flynn moved out of Harrowen Villa and moved into the villa gifted to him by the royal family.
I have lived in Harrowen Villa for several months, and it is time to move out.
If the royal family would not gift a villa, he would buy the villa himself and move out.
It’s not that living in the Harlowin Villa is uncomfortable, but the Harlowin Villa is the residence of the Duke and Duchess of Harrowen after all. As an outsider, he is not suitable for long-term living.
If only Lindy lives there, he doesn’t mind living there for a long time.
In the morning, Flynn woke up in the bedroom of “Socks Villa”.
Come downstairs for breakfast, the breakfast is very rich, not worse than Harrowen Villa.
The source of ingredients for the villa is the same channel as the royal family, and the ingredients obtained from this channel are naturally high-end ingredients. Basically, what kind of ingredients the royal family eats, he also eats.
Ferrin is not very interested in cigars and red wine, but he is quite interested in food.
The royal family should know this, so they will provide him with ingredients through royal channels.
After breakfast, Flynn sat down in a sofa area of the villa, and asked the maid to make a pot of black tea and bring it to him.
“Mystery point: 1429.”
Call out the panel, and Flynn looked at the column of mysterious points.
Annihilated a stronghold of the Eye of Death, and even besieged and killed a Superman with the Eye of Death. He originally reached 1429 points again because of the promotion of the secret silver mirror to the shriveled mysterious point of the twelve rings.
“It’s quite a lot, but it’s far from enough to fuse the silver mirror of the secret technique.”
Flynn shook his head slightly.
Before, it cost a total of 20,000 mystery points to fuse the mysterious gun of the twelve rings with the appraisal eye of the twelve rings.
Nowadays, to fuse the silver mirror of the twelve-ring secret technique with the mysterious gun of the twelve rings and the eye of the twelve-ring appraisal, the mystery points required may not exceed 20,000.
According to his estimation, this number will be at least the same as that in the stage of mystic technique promotion, and the number will be doubled to reach 40,000 mysterious points, and it may even be more than that.
1429 mysterious points seem to be a lot, but if compared with 40,000 mysterious points, it seems very little.
“It should be difficult to collect so many mysterious points in a short period of time. Before fusing the secret silver mirror, I can upgrade a few high-level extraordinary items to enhance my combat power.”
Felin thought to himself.
The Eye of Appraisal, a secret technique that he has practiced, can only exert its due power if he has enough high-level Extraordinary Items.
Compared to him who is extraordinary, the only high-level extraordinary items that can be equivalent are obviously Type V extraordinary items.
And he only has one extraordinary item like this, and that is the mechanical ball of the V-type curse, and the price to be paid after using it is relatively serious.
It can be said that because he doesn’t have enough high-level Extraordinary items, he hasn’t brought out the power that the Eye of Secret Appraisal should have.
“Promoting Extraordinary Items will not hinder my fusion of the Mystic Silver Mirror.”
Because the upgraded Extraordinary items can be downgraded and the spent Mysterious Points can be stripped away, Felin doesn’t need to worry about using Mysterious Points to upgrade Extraordinary items, which will hinder the fusion of the Mystic Silver Mirror.
After the mysterious points are enough to fuse the silver mirror of the secret technique, all the mysterious points used to upgrade extraordinary items will be downgraded and stripped out.
“Among the Extraordinary items I have now, the most suitable for upgrading is indeed the strengthening gem. After I gather enough mysterious points, I will upgrade the strengthening gem.”
Ferrin looked at the Extraordinary item column, and finally landed on the enhanced gemstone that had been upgraded to Type V, but was re-downgraded to Type IV in order to integrate the secret technique to become Extraordinary.
To choose one of these items for strengthening and upgrading, he still prefers strengthening gems.
After all, strengthening a single Extraordinary item with gemstones is equivalent to possessing six extraordinary abilities of strength, speed, defense, smell, hearing, and vision, which is really delicious.
At this time, footsteps sounded, and someone was approaching here.
Flynn closed the panel, looked around, and saw the butler Matthew Pinsent wearing a butler uniform coming.
After approaching, Matthew Pinsent said respectfully.
“Your Excellency, Earl McGarore is here, and I have invited him to the reception room.”
