Chapter 265 Nulia
The sound of horse hooves gradually became louder, Chu Ming and Irina got on the carriage, and the knight drove the unicorn blood horse slowly to the location designated by Chu Ming.
The castle in the middle of the city of Soren is where the members of the Brick family live. Most of the Brick people live in this huge castle, and many of them choose to move out and live in the city.
The purpose of Chu Ming's trip was not the castle, but a street called Tulip.
In Ryan's memory, after his father died, his mother Nuria moved out of the tall castle a few years ago and took him to live in a house on Tulip Street.
Because Nuria personally taught Ryan to practice secret methods and swordsmanship, he could barely keep up with other students in the Brick family knight class despite his low talent.
It was just that after Ryan's talent reached the upper limit of the great knight, he could not get a breakthrough and gradually fell behind other young people.
So at Nuria's suggestion, Ryan began to travel abroad and went to the Violet Principality to study.
In fact, Nuria's original intention was to let him go out to travel and relax, see the vastness of the world, not worry about the knight's talent all day long, and not limit his vision to the small Brick family.
However, Nuria herself may not have expected that Ryan would actually get the opportunity to enter the Mage Tower to learn spells.
According to Ryan's original life trajectory, as long as he did not die in the disaster of Thorn Flower County, he could break through to the blue level, or even the deep blue level, and become an excellent lawman welcomed by knights with the power of the law. When he returns to the Brick family, he can also obtain a certain status and even get a position in the Knight Tribunal.
After all, in the southern border, without the support of the great empire, the lawman team cannot develop at all. The number of lawmen in the southern border can be described as rare, and even some epics may not see the power of lawmen in their lifetime.
However, the lawman is of great significance to the kingdom, the major families and the Knights. It is not an exaggeration to call it a weapon of war. The Knight Tribunal cannot watch a lawman slip away from their hands.
After the historical trajectory changed, Chu Ming put aside the power of the Lawgiver, while the Knight and Mage professions broke through the Deep Blue.
Chu Ming smiled, "If I go back like this, she should be shocked."
A few years ago, Ryan wrote a letter to Nuria's mother, saying that he had joined the Mage Tower and obtained the power of the law.
However, the distance between the Violet Principality and the Clinton Kingdom was far, and after the letter was received and sent back by the post station, he never received a reply from the woman, and he didn't know if she saw it.
Da Da Da...
The carriage drove into Tulip Street, and Irina stretched her head out to look outside. Suddenly, she seemed to see something, and excitedly pointed to the dilapidated training ground behind the dark corner of the street.
"Master, look, I beat you there before."
"Ahem, don't say such embarrassing things."
Chu Ming coughed lightly and almost couldn't hold his face.
When Irina first came to Tulip Street, Ryan, who had been lacking friends since childhood, was very happy. He treated Irina as his sister, coaxed her all day, and took her to play everywhere.
During a strength training, Irina curiously asked Ryan how powerful the knight was.
At that time, in order to show off his knight power to Irina, Ryan jokingly proposed a knight duel to the little maid. What he never expected was that Irina's hand strength was terrible. Her weak little fist hit his stomach and almost beat out the overnight meal in his stomach. His first knight duel ended in a very embarrassing way. Irina was scared and cried.
From that day on, Ryan had a clear understanding of what natural power is.
The carriage team moved forward. Under the orange street lights, one familiar place after another came into Chu Ming's eyes, and countless familiar pictures emerged in his mind.
After a while, the carriage team stopped at Chu Ming's shouting, and he and Irina walked down and stood in front of the yard.
Chu Ming looked inside the courtyard gate and saw a three-story house in front of him. The windows were brightly lit, as if the owner of the house had not yet fallen asleep.
Next to Chu Ming, Irina was holding a clay pot filled with specialties and carefully looking inside. She was about to see Nuria, and the little maid was extremely nervous. Her pupils were visibly trembling, and her fingers were tangled together.
"Young... Master, I'm so nervous..."
Chu Ming glanced at her and said with a smile: "Mother Nuria won't eat you, why are you nervous?"
"No, Lady Nuria is the best in the world, she won't eat people... Irina is so happy."
Irina was stubborn and muttered a retort, then looked inside nervously.
Chu Ming shook his head, walked into the yard, stood in front of the door, picked up the doorknob and knocked.
There was a sudden knock on the door in the quiet street late at night, and the people in the house soon heard the sound.
Dong, dong, dong... footsteps were heard in the house. After a while, the door creaked, and a black and white maid skirt was revealed from inside. A woman's voice came from inside.
"Excuse me, sir, what can I do for you..."
Before the woman finished her words, her doubtful tone was instantly replaced by surprise.
"You are... Master Ryan?!"
The figure of the maid completely came out from behind the door. Chu Ming looked and saw that the woman was wearing a simple maid dress and her hair was tied tightly with a scarf. The skin on her face was sagging and there were some wrinkles on her forehead. She looked like she was four years old. Fifty.
"Mom Valerie."
Chu Ming smiled and gave the excited woman a hug.
Valerie Bertinelli, as the maid who has been following Nulia, she watched Ren grow up, and Ren sometimes affectionately called her Mama Valerie.
"Master Ren, why are you back suddenly?"
Valerie wiped away the tears of excitement from the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, and she said happily: "Come on, come with me to see Miss Nulia, she is always talking about you when you are not here."
"Mom Valerie, I'm back too."
At this time Irina shouted, her face was a little angry, as if the woman's neglect of her aroused her childishness.
Valerie let go of Chu Ming's hand, she lowered her head and looked down, and then she discovered Irina.
The woman knelt down and rubbed Irina's head lovingly, "Why hasn't the poor little guy grown up yet? Is the food in the Violet Principality not very good?"
Chu Ming smiled and said: "This guy had a great time in the Violet King City, but he just didn't grow taller."
Irina hugged the jar and muttered: "I just ate a little..."
"Okay, put down this jar quickly and come with me."
Valerie was about to take the earthen pot out of Irina's arms when the little maid hurriedly shook her head and said: "Mother Valerie, this is a specialty prepared by Irina for you and Lady Nulia. Irina wants to do it in person." Send it over."
"Oh well."
Valerie stood up and said to Chu Ming: "Master, Irina, please come with me. I will arrange servants to entertain these two knights."
"I'm sorry to bother you so late."
Chu Ming lowered his head in embarrassment.
Valerie commanded the maid in the house to take the luggage from the knight and bring it into the house. She covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Oh, there's no trouble. Master, I couldn't be happier that you are back."
With that said, the woman led Chu and Ming into the house.
She explained: "Miss Nuria seems to be still meditating in the study on the third floor. I will take you to find her."
"By the way, didn't Danilo and Host go to the Violet Principality with you, young master? Why didn't you see them?"
Danilo and Host were actually the two guards who died at the hands of dark creatures in Thorn Flower County to protect Chu Ming.
The two of them had been following Ren to study in the Violet Principality and had been with him for several years. Unfortunately, the disaster happened so suddenly that even their bodies, Chu Ming, could not be found.
Chu Ming became a little heavier, and he told Valerie what happened in Thorn Flower County.
Valerie was horrified when she heard that Chu Ming and the others had encountered dark creatures. She felt a sense of fear in her heart. If Chu Ming and Irina did not escape, the consequences would be disastrous. Not only was Nulia unable to face this reality, She couldn't face it either.
The woman shook her head and comforted: "Danilo and Hoster died for the guardian and defended the honor of the guardian. I will visit their home tomorrow. From now on, their wives and daughters will be taken care of by us."
Chu Ming sighed and nodded.
There is no better way than this. Although these two guards have passed away, the living still need to continue to live. Instead of letting their wives and children fall into deep sorrow, it is better to tell them that Danilo and Host It’s dying with glory that helps them live on.
The three of them walked up the stairs and soon arrived in front of the study door on the third floor.
Valerie stepped forward and knocked gently on the door.
"Miss Nuria."
After a while, a gentle female voice came from inside.
"What's wrong, Valerie, please come in."
Valerie slowly opened the door, and there was a creaking sound at the door link. Chu Ming looked inside, and a familiar figure sitting at the desk appeared in front of him.
In front of the desk, the woman was wearing a simple and elegant gray dress. Her long white hair was tied up. Her beautiful face could not hide the traces of time. Chu Ming could vaguely see faint wrinkles on her face.
Chu Ming stood at the door in a daze, wanting to say something, but couldn't.
The woman's eyes left the table and looked out the door. When she saw Chu Ming and Irina behind Valerie, her calm eyes suddenly made waves.
"Ren, Irina..."
Nulia slowly stood up from the chair, her expression becoming a little dazed.
"Lord Nuria!"
Compared to the stunned Chu Ming, the nervous expression on Irina's face disappeared. She finally put down the jar and happily ran into the woman's arms.
"Irina..."
Nulia had a faint smile on her face, and she gently stroked Irina's head.
"whee……"
The little maid seemed to enjoy this process and closed her eyes as comfortably as a cat.
"Mother Nuria."
At this time Chu Ming also came over and shouted softly.
Nulia let go of Irina. She came to Chu Ming, measured his height with her palms, and smiled softly: "Ren has grown up, and he is taller than mother."
Chu Ming smiled softly, "I gained a lot after going to the Violet Principality."
Nuria hugged him gently, "Yes, he has matured a lot and is becoming more and more like your father before."
"But you must have suffered a lot there. Can you tell me what people and things you and Irina encountered there? If you have any grievances, you can tell me."
Chu Ming touched his chin and said in a strange tone: "I did suffer a lot of grievances when I first went there, but later on the people who made me feel wronged became even more wronged than me."
Chu Ming and others were sitting in the study, and he told Nulia what he had encountered in the past few years.
The woman's brows sometimes furrowed and sometimes relaxed, completely immersed in Chu Ming's experience.
Chu Ming did not talk too much about the bad treatment he encountered in the Violet Principality, or the dangers he experienced in Thorn Flower County. He simply said that he was very talented as a knight, and he was valued by his teacher. Later, he got the ability to change The secret medicine of the knight's talent can cultivate both the knight profession and the mage profession to the deep blue level.
The more Nulia listened, the more surprised she looked on her face. Even she could not have imagined that Chu Ming would encounter so many things in the Violet Principality, and the talent that had always troubled him would also be improved.
Although her original intention was to let Chu Ming go out to practice more and not take the Brick family's knight assessment too seriously, what the woman didn't expect was that this trip would directly change the trajectory of his life.
Even Nulia had to lament the impermanence of fate. After sighing, she was happy for Chu Ming's achievements.
The woman's face kept smiling, but when she thought that Chu Ming had such a high talent for magic, but suddenly came back from the Violet Principality, she couldn't help but worry: "Why did the teacher in the Mage Tower let you leave the Principality? If your talent is good, just work hard." , strive to become as epic as your father.”
Chu Ming shook his head and said: "Something happened in the Violet Principality that forced us to come back. The Clinton royal family and the Knight Tribunal should know about this."
Nulia said happily: "It'll be good to come back safely."
Chu Ming smiled and said: "Of course, the reason why I want to come back this time is because I miss you, and I also want to obtain the epic inheritance of the Cloud Thunder Knight."
"When I was still in the Violet King City, this little guy Irina was talking about you every day. I miss you so much."
Irina blushed and climbed down from the table. She picked up the earthen jar at the door and carefully placed it in front of Nulia.
"Lord Nulia, this is a specialty that Irina brought back to you there."
"specialty?"
Nulia was stunned for a moment and smiled slightly.
"Then I have to see what Irina brought me."
"Hehe, there is still a gift prepared by Sister Trina for Lady Nuria."
When Chu Ming heard this, he looked curiously.
Irina carefully opened the seal of the earthen jar and took out the contents one by one.
"These are the sweet candies Irina bought, the super powerful comb, the magic crystal lamp..."
One after another, she took out strange gadgets from the earthen jar. Most of them were some sweet and sour fructose, as well as some magic props with various bells and whistles bought at the Wangcheng Master Market.
"Yes, this is the gift Sister Trina asked me to bring to Lady Nulia."
Irina took out a string of amber-colored crystal bracelets from a box.
Chu Ming sensed his mental power a little, and he found a strong wood elemental magic power inside.
Irina happily put the bracelet on Nuria. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, wrinkled her nose and said in trouble: "I heard that Sister Trina can moisturize the body or something, but I forgot."
"You're so thoughtful." Nuria smiled softly, "Ren, when you go to visit Miss Trina in the future, take my thanks with you."
Chu Ming nodded, and he patted Nulia on the shoulder with his palm.
Dead wood rejuvenates.
The turquoise staff behind him bloomed with a faint green light, and then the faint green light bloomed from his hand and penetrated into the woman's body.
The penetration of wood energy gently restored the hidden wounds and old problems in Nuria's body.
After a few minutes passed, the light in Chu Ming's hand dissipated, and the woman slowly opened her eyes. She felt a sense of relaxation coming from her body, and even the joints that usually ached a lot had recovered a lot.
Nulia praised unabashedly: "It's really amazing."
Chu Ming smiled and looked at his palm.
Dead wood rejuvenation and savage growth are both wood healing spells, one is level one and the other is level 3. Logically speaking, savage growth has a more significant therapeutic effect, so he should use savage growth.
But in fact, compared with wild growth, dead wood rejuvenation also has its own advantages. It is more effective in the treatment of some diseases, while wild growth is more suitable for restoring physical damage.
The rejuvenation effect of dead wood is weak and requires a long period of continuous treatment. This is both its disadvantage and its advantage. This means that its therapeutic effect will not be as overbearing as that of wild growth, and it will not be in the human body because the effect is too strong. It causes accumulation of magic power and is more suitable for use on some elderly people or patients.
This was also discovered by Chu Ming when he was treating Amy's mother, so he chose to use Deadwood Rejuvenation to treat Nulia.
"correct."
The chat was so enjoyable that Chu Ming temporarily forgot about Bingtuan who was still staying in the hotel.
He hurriedly asked: "Mother Nuria, is there any free house? The knights who follow me are still living in the hotel. I want to settle them down first."
Nuria asked curiously: "How many knights are there?"
"There are 48 in total, and there are also some servants and staff who came with the army."
Nuria's face showed surprise. She thought for a while and asked the maid who was quietly listening to their conversation: "Valerie, do we have a shop on Leica Street?"
Valerie nodded quickly and said: "Yes, Miss Nuria, this is the shop that the master prepared for you in the city of Sauron. Although it has been abandoned, I have always sent people to clean it."
"It only needs a slight renovation to allow the knights to move in. I will ask the carpenter to take a look tomorrow morning. Master Ryan does not need to worry too much."
Chu Ming smiled and nodded: "Then I'll trouble Mother Valerie."
After the problem of the army's settlement was solved, Chu Ming relaxed a little and remembered his other purpose of returning to the Clinton Kingdom-obtaining the inheritance of the epic knight.
