Chapter 435 Unbelievable (Additional update, please give me a monthly vote)
Asphalt is used to pave roads, and kerosene is used to light lamps.
The gasoline was shipped to the Black Fire Brick Kiln Factory, where a new type of gasoline furnace was being commissioned by the students of the polymath Plácido. It is said that the theoretical effect of this kind of gasoline kiln is higher efficiency and more stable quality than black oil kiln.
Liquefied gas is stored in storage. This kind of liquid is very volatile. After evaporation, it is easy to spontaneously ignite and explode. So far, no suitable method of use has been found.
Finally, there is the lubricant.
This product, as its name suggests, lubricates a variety of components. The axles of carriages need to be lubricated, as do the maintenance of weapons and armor. They can even be used in places such as wine cellar seals and windmill drive shafts.
"The black oil looks like just a dark plaster, but I didn't expect it to have so many wonderful uses. It is indeed the magic metal nourished by the flying dragon!"
Nicholas closed the notebook full of writing and said with emotion: "This time I have gained a lot from the Black Fire Land. I can't wait to see how beautiful the Black Fire Land will be in a few years!"
The words have not yet fallen.
A young knight galloped over, dismounted and asked, "Are you Sir Nicholas? I am a follower of Baron Thunder Flame. My name is Promi."
"Your Excellency Prome." Nicholas bowed and said, "I am Nicholas."
"Your Excellency Nicholas, my lord invites you to go to Cigar Castle tomorrow afternoon to attend the Black Fire Festival bonfire party."
Nicholas didn't know why: "Black Fire Festival?"
"Yes, my adults have decided that August 15th every year, the harvest season, will be a festival to celebrate the opening of the Black Fire land, and named it the Black Fire Festival." Promi explained, "This year is the first Black Fire Festival. Festival."
"I see, okay, I will definitely attend the Black Fire Festival bonfire party on time tomorrow afternoon." Nicholas responded, "By the way, will Mr. Russell also attend?"
"Of course, this will be the first time for my family to celebrate the festival with the people."
…
"Why is it set on August 15th as the Black Fire Festival?" In the framework of the newly built main castle of Cigar Castle, eldest brother Roland asked Russell while accompanying Russell to check the details, "You didn't ride the dragon on September 11th. ?"
Roland knocked on the pillars of the main castle with his hand. The pillars were not only made of clay bricks, but also had a large amount of metal materials added to them at his request.
It can be said.
The materials used in this castle are so solid that even a slap from the snow giant may not break the castle apart. It can be passed down and immortalized for thousands of years.
"I don't like September 11th, so I chose August 15th." Russell said, this is a taboo that only he knows.
"Okay." Roland didn't go into details anymore, "But I won't attend the bonfire party. I don't want to disturb your celebration with the people. I haven't been home for a while. I will take this opportunity to go back and then go to the volcano." Oasis buys serfs.”
"Well, let's have a good reunion with my sister-in-law, and hurry up and work hard to give birth to the future heir of Youguang Valley."
"You have to work hard, Russell." Roland smiled and patted his brother's arm, "The two territories of Black Fire Land and Lei Ze are waiting for the arrival of their heirs... If you don't look down on the ladies in the country, Come and visit the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents.”
Then Roland joked: "You see, Mel has gone around and got to know Anne from the Ade family. Maybe you can get to know the ladies from the Ade family."
Russell rolled his eyes: "The ladies of Marquis Arthur's family are quite old."
Ad Lieyang is the count of the Blazing Torrent Kingdom.
Arthur Lieyang is the Marquis of the Fiery Torrent Kingdom and the younger brother of King Ares Lieyang. But unlike his elder brother, who is a dragon knight, even the Grand Duchy of Shadowflame knows about Marquis Arthur's reputation as a good-for-nothing.
Relying on countless resources accumulated by the Lieyang Royal Family, he was barely promoted to Level 1 Phantom Beast Knight, and there was no longer any progress.
For such a matter as sending an envoy to the Grand Duchy of Shadowflame, the most suitable candidate should be Marquis Arthur.
However, a mere fantasy beast knight could not represent the facade of the Blazing Torrent Kingdom, so he chose the sideline Marquis Arnold.
But no matter what, Arthur is a marquis.
According to the title system of the Holy Radiant Empire, a marquis is a lifelong title, one level higher than an earl. Any noble who can obtain the title of marquis must have a hereditary and non-replaceable title that can be passed down, earl or higher.
For example, Marquis Quintero Shadowflame of the Grand Duchy of Shadowflame, the father of Grand Duke Kunstan, was ennobled as a marquis when he was unable to inherit the position of Grand Duke.
This does not affect Kunstein's future succession to the position of Grand Duke.
Grand Duke, Duke, Earl, and Baron are all hereditary and irreplaceable titles, while Marquis, Viscount, and Lord are all lifelong titles.
The heir to a duke can be granted the title of marquis first, and then slowly wait for the old duke to pass on the throne; the heir to an earl can also be granted the title of viscount first, and then slowly wait for the old earl to pass on the throne; similarly, the heir to a baron can also be granted the title of viscount. First, give him the title of Lord.
also.
A count who has done great service to the country can be given the title of marquis; a baron who has done great service to the country can also be given the title of viscount; a knight who has done great service to the country can naturally win the title of lord.
As for the duke, he was already equivalent to the lord of a country, with no title. If he went further, he could only become a grand duke or king.
"Arthur's family doesn't only have daughters, they also have granddaughters." Roland said with a smile, "You can find a reason to go on a diplomatic mission to the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents. With your reputation, the ladies of Arthur's family and Ade's family will all be eager to marry you."
After a pause, Roland continued to tease, "Maybe the little princesses of King Ares's family are also willing to marry you."
"Too far away, I'm only eighteen years old, and I don't want to enter the grave of marriage so early."
"The grave of marriage will be entered sooner or later, so it's better to make the grave more spacious and comfortable to sleep." Roland said.
"That's for the future." Russell walked to the corridor of the main castle and looked at the bright sunshine outside. "I don't want to be trapped in the small circle of the Grand Duchy of Shadow Flame or the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents so early."
"Oh, where do you want to go?" Roland followed.
"I want to go outside and take a look at the Hurricane Thunder Kingdom, the Clear Sky Dusk Kingdom, the Fire Gilded Kingdom, and many Grand Duchies, the Rock Grand Duchies, the Mist Grand Duchies, the Haze Grand Duchies... I want to see so many dragons."
"Tsk tsk." Roland laughed, "I finally understand what you are planning."
"Oh, what did you understand, brother?"
"You must be thinking that if the Shadow Flame Dragon is unwilling to make a contract with you due to blood reasons, you will go to seduce the dragons of other countries." Roland had an attitude of "but I have seen through everything", "With your style, you may really be able to seduce a dragon."
"I won't seduce dragons randomly." Russell looked up at the sky and said, "But Dragon Knight is indeed my established goal."
"Yes, you are already a flying dragon knight and dragon domain lord. You have reached the end of the knight's way. Going forward, you can only contract a dragon and be promoted to a dragon knight." Roland sighed and turned to look at his brother.
In the past, this brother who he didn't take seriously at all has now become a great figure that he can hardly compare to.
Moreover.
Russell is only 18 years old this year, and he still has decades to create incredible things.
"Incredible?" Roland imitated Russell, looking up at the sky, and sighed silently in his heart, "In the past, I thought it was incredible for Russell to ride a dragon, it was incredible for Russell to be promoted to the Lord of the Dragon Realm, and it was incredible for Russell to be named a baron, but... in the end, they all became facts."
