After completing the daily treatment, his terrifying and ferocious half-human form seemed to have undergone some changes, and the humanity between his eyebrows became more standard.

He exhaled gently, gathered all the immortal power in his body, and quickly returned to his original appearance.

He transformed into Russell's body and sat quietly on the bed. Today, he needed to visit the dignitaries in the entire royal city one by one under the leadership of Lambert.

Linnard was neatly dressed, and every piece of clothing was hand-sewn by private high-end goods, ensuring that the price of his entire body could shock some discerning businessmen.

Not only are these clothes expensive, some of them are even as prestigious as the robes worn by Brother Owen, and one needs to have a certain status to purchase them.

These were prepared by Lambert for Russell, but today he wore them himself.

Because Althea invited him to attend the ball at the palace, as her friend, Lynard did not intend to embarrass her.

Although wearing simple casual clothes can attract some unsightly fish, he is actually not interested in this trick of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. There will always be people around you who misjudge your strength and deliberately come to provoke you.

Although your life is very refreshing just thinking about it.

But if you do it too often, it will be very boring.

It may even give people the feeling that this person originally belongs to this level.

Linnard is very happy to be able to dispel some people's thoughts directly from his appearance. Moreover, this kind of behavior will also make Althea feel more comfortable, without causing any trouble to her.

'Well, then use Russell's private seal to issue me a certificate of title of deputy missionary.'

Thinking that although he was going to the dance today, but thinking of the strange expression on Althea's face when he spoke yesterday, Linnard knew that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.

In order to make his dress match his identity, he decided to temporarily create a position for himself.

Others would call this a fraud, but what he did was a matter of thorough consideration.

Because Russell is his trumpet, as the leader of the missionary department in Chaos Religion, he has all internal autonomy. The appointment signed by him has a sacred effect even if it is placed in front of Turnerson.

So, after eating the breakfast provided by the hotel, Linnard got a still-stained appointment letter for the position of deputy missionary in the hands of Lambert, who had a strange look on his face.

After the front hand has finished writing, the back hand has to ask his subordinates to hand it over to him for some operations, also to add a sense of ritual.

It seems that the personnel transfer of Chaos Religion has become more official.

Linnard expressed his understanding of Lambert's blue color.

After all, as a newcomer who has just joined the team, it is indeed a bit unpredictable for me to inexplicably change from their colleagues to their superiors in just one day.

However, in Linard's sea of ​​consciousness, it can be seen that Lambert's faith in Naija exceeds more than 90% of believers.

He would not have any objections to the instructions of Russell, a man favored by the gods, and would only obey them.

After seeing off Lambert, Linnard put the appointment letter into his coat pocket and sat quietly in the hotel lobby, waiting for Althea's men to pick him up.

His current appearance is that of the original owner after time travel, with a face of mixed Asian and European descent, black hair, gray eyes, and a resolute expression.

With the addition of Linnard's own temperament and clothing, his facial contours are as deep as a knife and an axe. Although he has a faint bookish aura, his expression has a sense of majesty that makes people tremble.

It seems that he has been living among people for a long time.

Several well-dressed aristocratic ladies couldn't help but look at him secretly. Linard responded with a smile as warm as the spring breeze, which made their souls tremble and feel as comfortable as basking in the sun.

There were even some bolder girls who wanted to strike up a conversation, but their hearts palpitated inexplicably when they got closer. In the end, they were unable to move forward and had to pretend to be passing by.

Using the spiritual influence of the sea of ​​consciousness to drive away several groups of onlookers, Linnard raised his hand and looked at the million-dollar watch on his wrist. The pointer made of pure natural spiritual crystal was quietly pointing to ten-five.

The fifteenth position.

A pure white high-end car parked in front of the hotel, and two silent men with extraordinary aura got out.

They walked into the hotel one after another, walked to Linnard's side respectfully, bent down and said, "Mr. Linnard, please wait for a long time. Please come with us."

Both men's black suit jackets were inlaid with a small iron lion's head, which only those who have sworn allegiance to the royal family are eligible to wear.

Linard checked his memory for a while, and after confirming that he had seen these two people among Althea's guards, he stood up and left the hotel under the protection of the two of them.

After getting in the car, Linnard discovered that although the appearance of this car was not as gorgeous as his own Black Panther hover car, the accessories inside were valuable.

Purely hand-tanned animal leather is paired with ubiquitous gold jewelry, and the interior of the car is also equipped with ceremonial silence. There are no logos on the entire car, which means that the entire car is specially manufactured and is exclusively used by the royal family.

And this kind of car is just used by them to receive guests.

In order to ensure comfort, the dance actually has to wait a while before it starts. Therefore, the vehicle speed is not very fast, and it can be said that it is heading to the central city where the royal family is located at a slightly faster speed than walking.

After leaving the East District, the ubiquitous religious symbols suddenly decreased significantly. They were replaced by a variety of extremely prosperous neighborhoods and single-family villas. The central city is famous for its good public security.

After all, it is located near the royal family, so the city hall and the policemen patrolling with copper sticks are extremely careful.

In the central city area with a diameter of 40 kilometers, more than 90% of the wealthy people of the imperial capital live.

A large number of family residences can be seen everywhere. These wealthy and powerful people will buy a piece of land to ensure that they are in a secluded state.

In fact, according to Linnard's investigation, these people were only at the second-rate level in the imperial capital.

The real rich will never settle in the central city.

The biggest interference factor is that it is too small!

Take the Golden Oak family as an example. They still use the gathering system passed down from their ancestors. Except for family members who can lead a party alone, other people must live in the family castle and surrounding villas.

Around their castles will be built large and small supporting buildings, some privately maintained troops, and the families of these troops.

On average, the population is almost large enough to build a small city on its own.

Therefore, the central city cannot accommodate these large and small families at all. Their real origins are far away from the imperial capital, such as near the dirty plains, or on the islands not far from the seaside town.

The Golden Oak family's origin is right next to the seaside town, and they also live by the sea. In order to facilitate import and export, they even have their own dock and port. As long as they pay a large tax every year, they can use it freely.

Port does everything.

In other words, the Golden Oak family made its fortune through smuggling.

After all, such a loose policy almost forced the patriarch of the Golden Oak family to find a few ships to go out to sea for smuggling. There was no inspection, no customs fees, arbitrary pricing, and a free market.

With these convenient conditions, it is difficult to be poor.

Of course, all this cannot be accomplished simply by relying on the archbishop-level patriarch of the Golden Oak family.

Linnard has asked Lambert to find out clearly, and it is clear that the third prince is behind them.

Whether it is the flow of funds or the loosening of controls, it can be seen that members of the party close to the Three Princes are behind the scenes.

Lambert even admitted that this was hardly a secret matter in the imperial capital.

Ever since the queen disappeared and the situation in the imperial capital was in turmoil, the Golden Oak family, which the third prince spent a lot of effort to support, has secretly drawn out the relationship with the other party.

This has only one purpose, which is to declare to those generals, princes, congressmen, and speakers who have the right to speak in the simplest way that my third prince has an extremely rich pocket and strong financial resources.

Follow me and I'll give you the hot and spicy food.

This trick was so effective that a large number of congressmen almost all supported the third prince. The eldest prince's support rate dropped at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye. It was not until the opponent's teacher surfaced that this trend was stopped.

Because his teacher turned out to be the current Prime Minister!

The reason why Lynard knows so much is mainly because if he wants to clean up the Golden Oak family, he must know in advance who his enemy is, what assistance he has, what possible difficulties he will encounter, and whether there is help.

He was not very concerned about these political changes and patterns. Once he understood the strength of the Golden Oak family, he knew how to deal with them.

After entering the central urban area, the road opened up a lot.

There is often no one except passing vehicles for a long distance. The middle class and civilians who are not of sufficient class will not come to the central city for no reason.

The daily patrols of the royal family's troops in the outer circle are not just for show. If you are arrested, you may face prosecution.

Therefore, unless invited, anyone seen here either serves the royal family or is a powerful person himself.

As for the royal family, they usually don't go out.

An army of seven thousand people is responsible for protecting the security here. This army is all equipped with spiritual armor, and its individual combat capabilities are equivalent to those of believers. Coupled with the latest iteration of spiritually driven firearms, it can face the threat to the monks head-on.

If Cheng Jian went to war, the army armed with a large number of battlefield weapons developed by the Royal Academy of Science and Technology could at least withstand hundreds of bishops.

The resistance here is really just resistance.

In other words, it is guaranteed that they will not be defeated or killed within a certain period of time.

Leave enough buffer time to give your own awakened members time to assemble and dispatch, and launch a counterattack.

If it is not faced with a large number of bishops, then this army can efficiently kill small rebel forces or unthinkable civilians on a large scale.

Therefore, the rich and powerful all express that they feel very safe and insist on living here even if the price is a little higher.

The white car flashed by on the road like lightning. All private cars would subconsciously get out of the way in advance when they saw this car without any identification marks.

They are very familiar with this kind of car. Only a few powerful people in the royal family are qualified to mobilize it, and it is often used to welcome some more distinguished guests.

"I heard that today is the second princess' coming-of-age prom. Are the people in the car going to the prom?"

In a villa not far away, several young men and women happened to see this scene in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and couldn't help but discuss it.

"The second princess was kept extremely secretive by the royal family, and some information was not allowed to be leaked until she reached adulthood. Judging from the appearance of this car, it looks like it is her own, meaning that the people in the car were personally invited by her?

Could it be that our Second Princess, although she has been in the palace all year round, has acquaintances from the outside world?

Tell me, is it a man or a woman?"

The man who spoke looked a little handsome and had a gossipy face. He drank a drink and said with a smile.

"We can't discuss this matter, but my father was also invited to the ball. If he was a man, it would have been revealed at the ball.
