Chapter 137 The background of the nobility, the huge Dressrosa family
Count Engel knew very well that almost 90% of the credit for his breakthrough this time was due to his son.
As he said, without the fruit of life given by Thor and the purple golden grass obtained, he would not be able to use it even if he had the channel to configure it as a high-level life potion.
Let alone the Silver Moon Breathing Method.
As for his own accumulation, it is almost not worth mentioning among those existences that played a decisive role in the breakthrough.
After all, in the entire Tulip Kingdom, there are eighty, if not a hundred, peak earth knights like him.
But almost all Earth Knight Peaks can only be stuck at the Earth Knight Peak, unable to break through further.
There is no high-level life potion, and there is also no high-level knight's breathing method. It is simply a dream to break through.
Looking at Thor, Count Engel's mood couldn't help but fluctuate in a complicated way.
But it was only for a moment.
As the head of the Dressrosa family, Count Engel quickly adjusted his mood.
“There should be no problem with this.”
“Now, I should be able to get some things.”
Compared to magicians, pharmacists are much simpler.
The status of a third-level magician is higher than that of an ordinary earth knight.
With the words spoken, Thor recounted some of the things he had just thought about.
Every magician is a qualified pharmacist, but every pharmacist is not necessarily a magician.
When the words came out, Count Engel's expression was serious.
Count Engel's words are obvious.
A moment later.
For a third-level magician who needs to pay a big price, forget it.
“Father, can you invite a third-level magician?”
Even if the success rate of the low-level life potion is lower, it doesn't matter. Anyway, he has plenty of raw materials and does not need to buy them, so there is no need to consider the cost at all.
“Father, I wonder if we can get some pharmacists who are good enough to prepare life potions. Just those who can prepare low-level life potions.”
Hummed for a moment, and then spoke again.
"In addition, what else do you need? Do you need some alchemists and high-level magicians? If you need it, I should be able to invite a third-level magician."
But after thinking about it, Thor chose to give up.
Thor was a little surprised, and his expression showed a hint of surprise.
Thor raised his head and looked at his father.
With his mind calmed down, Count Engel looked at Thor again.
Listening to his father's words, Thor couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
Faced with Thor's consideration, Count Engel did not bother.
“Also, I may need some stewards.”
They have mastered the ability to mix low-level potions, but they are not magicians.
Having this time, Anna can practice meditation with peace of mind, and the value it brings will be even higher.
“Forget it!”
“Thor, this time, I asked you to stay and wait for me to break through because I want to ask you what you need.”
So after coming back this time, Thor's main reason was to see if his father could find some pharmacists for him.
Thor can naturally understand it.
Count Engel was stunned for a moment, and then he spoke with a slight hesitation.
Count Engel shook his head, and then spoke softly.
Thor was surprised and restrained, then shook his head.
"this!"
Thor has obtained the seeds of the life grass in the territory and has even started planting them. Coupled with the two "Nao" producing areas in the western part of the Northland, the main materials for the low-level life potion have been gathered.
So he also started to think about it.
The reason is simple. Spending Anna's talent on this low-level life potion is simply a waste.
“Not necessarily, but you can try it!”
“Father, there is no need to go to such trouble. You can just help me get some pharmacists, preferably younger ones with more potential for growth.”
With Anna here, Thor can already match.
Instead, he waited quietly.
The so-called pharmacist is an existence between magicians.
“Pharmacist?”
He really does not lack a third-level magician.
In a sense, Anna is no less than an ordinary third-level magician, and it won't even take long before she can break through to the third level.
Thor doesn’t want to invite an old man back.
“It’s okay, I’ll try it, if it doesn’t work I won’t say anything else.”
“The pharmacist should be able to collect it soon.”
“However, if you use a pharmacist to prepare the life potion, the success rate may be lower.”
Count Engel shook his head and did not continue the topic, but spoke with a frown.
“Father, it’s okay, I can accept this.”
Thor nodded and spoke softly.
"Well!"
"Just wait for a few days and I will arrange it for you later. It should be able to collect it in three days at most."
Count Engel took a deep look at Thor again and said nothing, but nodded in agreement.
"By the way, Affairs Officer, I have already prepared for you. I have transferred ten people this time, which should be enough to meet your development for a long time. In addition, I am going to let Marshall follow you to the Northland Province. How about it?"
Seemingly thinking of something, Count Engel added again.
“Marshall?”
"Father, this is no longer necessary. Uncle Marshall is your father's most capable assistant. If I am transferred, it will be very inconvenient for your father."
Thor was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head in refusal.
Just when Thor was about to refuse, Count Engel's words rang out again.
“Don’t refuse yet. You probably don’t know that your Uncle Marshall will break through the Earth Knights soon. Going to the Northland Province should also be able to help you with something.”
Speak calmly.
But these calm words immediately made Thor's eyes widen.
“Father, are you telling the truth?”
Thor was really a little surprised at this moment.
It was agreed that there would only be two earth knights, so why did another one pop out all of a sudden?
Although it is about to break through, it does not mean that it has already been achieved.
But this is surprising enough.
“It’s indeed true. The probability is that it will only be within the next few months.”
Count Engel nodded and spoke again with confidence.
"this!"
Hearing his father's confirmation, Thor couldn't help but become speechless for a moment.
And seemed to understand Thor's doubts.
“You must be confused, right?” Count Engel chuckled.
“Father, how many earth knights do we have in the Dressrosa family?”
Looking at Count Engel's chuckle, Thor gathered his thoughts, hesitated slightly, and couldn't help but ask.
There is no other way, he is too curious about this thing.
My cousin Ruby Dressrosa is an Earth Knight, and Uncle Marshall is about to break through to the Earth Knight.
What about other family members?
Three hundred years of family members, that’s not all.
“Not many, five!”
Looking at Thor who was full of curiosity, Count Engel couldn't help but chuckle, and then spoke with a smile.
“Five, only five?”
Thor was stunned for a moment, looking a little unbelievable.
Not too much.
But too little.
To be honest, after this series of contacts, he said that there were ten members of the Dressrosa family, and he could not believe it.
After all, even if you don’t consider other things, there are already four of you including your own father, Michael, and Luby’s father, Luby.
This is only on the surface, Thor does not believe that there is no new earth knight behind the family.
This is simply impossible.
“Indeed, there are only five.”
"Of course there are only four of them at the moment. I have already broken through to the Sky Knights. The others are your Uncle Michael, Uncle Cecil, your second uncle, and your second uncle's son Ruby."
Count Engel smiled and spoke.
Explaining towards Thor.
Just this explanation made Thor full of doubts.
The quantities do seem to be right, but something is wrong.
Suddenly Thor seemed to think of something.
Hummed for a moment.
As Count Engel's smile spread, his voice was mixed with doubts.
"No, father, you said that starting from your grandfather, the Dressrosa family began to choose to open up. Is it possible that in all these years, no earth knight has been born?"
"As far as I know, among the pioneer knights, the Dressrosa family's name is still very famous. I'm afraid this is not something that comes from being a family in Frostmoon Province."
Thor frowned slightly, this was undoubtedly what he felt was wrong.
When he arrived in Loren City in the Northland Province, the Dressrosa family gave him a lot of convenience.
At first, he thought it was because he was a descendant of the Earl family, but later he discovered that this was not the case at all. After all, there were quite a few Earls and even Marquises who became pioneer knights. The Dressrosa family really nothing special.
It wasn’t until later that Thor vaguely felt the reputation of the Dressrosa family among the pioneer knights.
As for being able to gain reputation among the pioneer knights, it is almost unnecessary to think about the reasons.
But now it seems that something is not right again.
Fortunately, doubts have not continued to spread.
Count Engel had already answered his question with a chuckle.
"Hahaha!"
"Thor, this naturally does not include family members who become pioneer knights. If Marshall follows you, once you break through, you will also not be part of the family's earth knights."
The words are spoken with a smile.
And just this sentence made Thor's eyes widen.
“Doesn’t count?”
Speaking subconsciously, Thor felt his heart skip a beat.
“Of course not.”
"If we want to add more, there will naturally be more than five, but twelve."
“Crash!”
Count Engel spoke, and the next moment he raised his hand.
A curtain behind him was pulled down directly.
A huge map of the Tulip Kingdom appears.
Red circles appeared one after another.
Where Dressrosa Castle is located, there is the largest red circle.
In addition, there are two circles in the Frost Moon Province. At the same time, there are seven circles in the South Moon Province, two circles in the capital, and twelve circles in the Northland Province.
Taken together, the map is almost densely packed.
Either big or small, the big one is almost half the size of Dressrosa Castle, and the small one is only about the size of a grain of rice.
Thor even saw a familiar place.
There was clearly the Maine River Valley, and a circle also appeared, and it was not the smallest one, almost the size of a soybean.
The words of Count Engel also sounded slowly.
"In the past two hundred years, our family has continued to develop. Now we should have a total of fifty-seven territories, including two earls and seven viscounts. If you include it, there will be a total of seventeen barons. There are also thirty-one open territories. territory."
In the room, Count Engel's voice was not loud, but the feeling mixed with the map was extremely impactful.
At this moment, Thor opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
He thought that the family was very powerful, but he never thought that the family could be so powerful.
Twelve earth knights, which may even be more than the Assad family's earth knights.
Although the strength is definitely not comparable, after all, the Assad family has at least three peak earth knights. If the Dressrosa family can have this power, the Assad Chamber of Commerce will not appear, but Dressrosa Chamber of Commerce, or Eagle Chamber of Commerce.
But even so, this is already terrifying.
At least more than 90% of the earl families.
Even some marquis families may not be able to compare.
Even Thor suspected that the previous Dressrosa family might not be inferior to the Marquis Pat family.
“Hahaha, how about it? Are you scared?”
Count Engel looked at his son's expression and couldn't help but chuckle.
Looking at his son's reaction at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
My son has been too calm these days.
Made him feel a little frustrated.
At this moment, there is finally something that can shock me.
“Indeed, Father.”
Thor took a deep breath, then nodded and sighed softly.
This time, he was indeed deeply shocked.
Even if there are some speculations, this gorgeous family strength is still too shocking to people's hearts.
It was as if he thought his family was just a multi-millionaire, but suddenly his father told him that there were twelve millionaires in the family, and there were dozens more with another millionaire.
Billionaire, no, billionaire is even richer.
The impact was not small at all.
Looking at Thor shaking his head and sighing, Count Engel couldn't help but smile even more intensely.
