會合的一團人向最後據點前行，那是一個郊外古堡，歷史推算該有四百年，它的年齡與外表有很大差距，它看起來似是修補過很多次。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X5sHLXRL4
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJwVxN2tV5
李魚感嘆道：「古堡用蒸汽鐵門作防禦，不錯嘛。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxky8Drz1if
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsks0fvdwe
除了古代智慧結晶護城河之外，吊橋選用了蒸汽科技以高壓驅動鐵門。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Czk7MzcDn
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHy0jAOgCa
老鬼警惕道：「這意味古堡有重要東西或人的機會極大，防守也會很嚴密，至少應該有對付將軍的準備。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj91cJbt1P
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BAQHfXBGh
李魚道：「古堡面積只是普通貴族的級別，封爵也不會再住這種古堡，與時並進，封爵更愛搬進大城市裡去。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCDTpelB1u
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GhytV7HrT
老鬼偷笑道：「所以我認為此處怕是收藏了驚為天人的東西，為處近郊就能越少動靜。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBN5BnVj6q
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrwPrnOSdQ
老人與先生一來一往解釋了自己的看法，將軍吸收他們的經驗漸漸學習觀察與分析技巧，其他隊員有些做為觀察員，有些試圖找出接近的辦法。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKucdIVcVID
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdfVAgItvu
最重要的是地圖沒有相關字眼留下。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcCpnb2Zn5
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLdaxgtY4e
老鬼分析道：「強行攻佔的機會不大，觸動機關更有可能得不償失，鐵門該也不可能自行打開。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNExAKiccM
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHghAsqumr
李魚問道：「蒸汽科技方便卻笨重，安裝必然有巨大動力裝置伴隨，你們當中有人熟水性嗎？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcORUhUb22i
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWy2pGClD4I
小丫與另一名男隊員站了出來，先生讓他們小心潛入水中看看情況，但也不能接近太多，先生用樹枝測試過，經過門外二十步的位置就會出現無形的上升氣流，出現的間隔是半秒左右，以都統的身體會被直接切開一半毫無懸念，這機關也是精心挑選，山十四的準備顯示了它不可估量的價值，此行不虛。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlg8pxMRzy
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbHGBquZew
最好有功法存在。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzxIVjzRE0
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZUj0mnUkO
先生被老人打破僅有的幻想後，他也改為轉修其他功法的念頭，如此，他才有希望擊破李家這個龐然大物。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkAsblHGcH
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrMtqUpwDn
小丫道：「先生，水底有處出現地陷的情況，除了這樣就沒有其他特別了。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbL7YVFSrk
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpycEVnYaZ
另一位隊員持同樣的看法，出現地陷那必然是土壤出了問題，不排除天然形成的原因，巧合不會無緣無故，人為的機會極大，先生有了想法。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscGqwU8M8c
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ORYYnPe7L
李魚向老鬼道：「一個金幣，向那處出全力打一通。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9uZk1fsNu
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyrX0rAKYr
先生伸出食指一點，他想老人出招。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1DkoaqQj6
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxE6QPz3fT
老鬼嘆服道：「你總是將危險留給別人，自己享受成果。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaK8OHet6EX
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwbDA3iQya
李魚沒有否認道：「富貴險中求，我比較怕死。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzupA6q5OMV
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChxlvjeYf4
先生不忘幽默，老人收了一個金幣後再展現淡金色原力保護罩，打出最驚人的一拳，河水散逸露出河底光禿的地表，原力久久沒消散。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYUaBE383s
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUabZeWfLl
李魚道：「不出所料，真的是毫無作用，走吧。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WYN5vQC8y
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfClXpASdhX
老鬼接道：「去哪？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM96a1WaHTV
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZbhghrnnn
李魚立馬就走道：「先去一趟帝國圖書館。」
圖書館一處讀書室中，先生與老人一起研讀資料，其他人則去放風與收集消息。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmczoweJdZ5
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9mcfng4bW
先生借了不少歷史文獻，大多是四百至五百年間的年曆以及新聞紙，終於得出大概的認知。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKpMTZzVqO
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJxHgZl8wS
老鬼道：「費迪南男爵軍功卓絕，特批享建古堡的權利。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE8ZzltLDn
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYOPH4e6zl
李魚想起某人道：「莫非是勞德，費迪南？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Qa74PMUJ7
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrQpxcJzDa
老鬼佩服道：「小子你還真是什麼都知道。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3p8u1BpEK
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWS8rqdhTj
李魚無所謂道：「只是小時候聽過這個名字。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUfMQ0iH5s
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBLvYCYOXw
老鬼指著書中某處道：「這裡說勞德男爵修為初登猛將就斬殺一位血族公爵，並用牙齒噬咬血核，令血族一次重要的窺探帝國行動失敗而回。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28JXrEWyod
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUAOZBPxDk
李魚感慨道：「猛將級初期就可以連斬數位公爵，可知道同階下黑暗陣營身體質素比我們人族要強大很多，雖然公爵比起猛將級有著差距，但他輕易斬殺之就絕非庸人所為。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwenxd7nFBt
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oJozXRi4S
先生總結了男爵的實力並給予很高評價。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzNVMlx9HK
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKgUfvAm1a
老鬼笑道：「他當然不是，你知不知道費迪南家族？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOJHKicn3Y
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oUlSectDg
李魚道：「我並非歷史學家。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerbPMrAoax
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleCiCM4zHo
老鬼笑意盈盈道：「你自己看。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjlO7P9h7b
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0zTSWkZ1C
映入先生眼簾的是《帝國家族發展史》。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5A8DMmBrQE
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEJ9tpqB2Y
李魚道：「七百年前，帝國南部大陸，費迪南氏冒起為帝國收復數個部落。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZlkgotqPr
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5Dle8BBkj
老人接著道：「差不多是帝國第三任皇帝的時期，那是『南部大開發時代』，史官稱當時的三任君主為武帝不是沒有原因。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9P7VPobq4
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTF89dNqOa
先生算是同意但再有補充：「三代是位『軍事狂人』，這個名字比較貼切。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7udMq4FcA
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmeLv9yp8z
老鬼同意道：「也是，當時與黑暗陣營處於軍備競賽，掌握了原力黑暗陣營實力普遍都比我族要強大些許，亦是武帝推動之下才出現了量產型戰甲，為前線或是地區巡邏人員提供更安全的幫助。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKWkGSUMjs
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7cmpS2xii
先生提起食指伸向某個段落道：「這也是費迪南氏崛起的年代，這裡還標著了他們的戰鬥風格以及成名人物。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVxUDzL9mX
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpTQnk72df
老鬼補充道：「始祖是亞倫，費迪南。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqsVne1OyD
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYidQWIy4D3
再接道：「他實力只是將軍級，擅用長矛，修行的功法是利用原力增強肌肉控制能力的《欲奧神術》。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DBOC4jKDu
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbqc2KRPLc
李魚疑問道：「神術？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfxIDGbkU4
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXqk501RWG
老鬼答道：「亞倫費迪南是南部傳統教派的忠誠信徒。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4bQcInP4r
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUGTrUBAMF
李魚驚訝道：「這也寫在書上？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKVOciy2fU
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69SNRBatpe
老鬼譏諷道：「是《教會年報》，真主造物會最新一期發表了對費迪南氏的稱讚，我從某個客人手上看過這個名字。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHNRqoZOg3
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCryiEeiu0
李魚點頭道：「真主的確是南部的信仰。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUe2dmgSnm
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE0Gz4VHxh
老鬼問：「你帶我來就是看他們的歷史？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCWdLiCDSX
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFb3uZRoCu
李魚確定道：「算是了解一下而已。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkto86cT10f
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk932PgCx01
老鬼訴說歷史道：「費迪南最後的血脈就在鎮外興趣了一座亞倫古堡，就在傳說始祖死去之地。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPtqBc7yqI
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ453xbWoaFv
先生道出這一句話後翻上了書本，費迪南家族就如此簡短。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonMyFAanHO
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUQgE7KODF
李魚確定了心中想法道：「那就是說勞德費迪南可能已經死在山仁傑手中或是被控制了。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcz3F5lrAf
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrRq8zbOCk
老鬼認同道：「我的猜想相同。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSr4Q0bL1Qp
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctH1bR6xpy
李魚合上書道：「那先會合其餘人再討論吧。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9ajIbema8
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyvTonNNCG
一行人租住了酒館，選擇了半夜繼續討論。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPQX8lAIlr
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ466EOwkLdR
將軍道：「先生交代我們之事已有眉目，費迪南家族在約克鎮上的聲望不錯，直到勞德男爵去世後古堡中人就住進鎮上，建了橦三層高的小樓在鎮長府旁。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY2e9zxEqN
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lEmNRUwpY
老鬼道：「原來如此，勞德男爵年老體衰時大抵已知遠離人郡的生活不太美好，城鎮的現代化驅使了他作出家族遷移的念頭。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoe9sYlCN3R
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhgyIwudxt
將軍再道：「在他死後即是三年前他的遺囑就遣散了大部分的下人，只留下親近的一同遷入小樓，加上下人總共有二三十人左右在小樓中生活。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBT5EzqlJL
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CKI1cUAxm
老鬼譏諷道：「這還算是小樓嗎？二三十人都可以住下。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHLpiyS3wq
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVHHPAjIiv
再補一刀道：「將軍，似乎你的智慧與實力真的不太相乎。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuvJyqWeWY
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEzTJlm86t
老人家聽到將軍的話顯然失望，小丫的情報沒錯漏，一般受予爵位的貴族下人數目都有嚴格規定，但遠離帝都就少有人著急，男爵最多可以擁有五十名下人，所以費迪南家算是節儉了，先生考慮過該是他家的經濟出現問題，封地是主要收入來源，約克鎮至少是子爵級才可擁有的封地等級，男爵一般以田地計算封地，標準的受封最少可有十畝地最多三十畝，而且封地世襲。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspFVLfrQKP
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8ooKKYU5Y
費迪南越階受封得有約克鎮，但最終只有三層高的小樓以及二三十名下人，若是如此，先生給予他的評價可會大大降低，勞德絕不是個合格的管治者。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXfsChVYLa
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSJA5X6dnv
老人接著說：「也可以理解成費迪南家族的控制力不足，在鎮上的權力不完全。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RxxzIYbua
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPI87Kuty2o
將軍思考回應：「那麼山仁傑就是看中這一點才得到亞倫古堡？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDpEDhjd2N
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtRnfkYRSI
小丫說道：「他很聰明，我打聽過關於山仁傑的消息，鎮上最熱鬧的茶市老闆就見過他與勞德經常喝茶吃點心。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbFP2dMLSi
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdgbpqTJt5
將軍想起趣事便接話：「小丫說那裡的茶點味道真的不錯呢，先生你應該嘗嘗。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYt6aELSC6
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzINkTTZcWH
將軍對於小丫和先生有興趣，其他人在他心中相對沒有份量，包括那個新加入的便宜師父。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZTAOgAWbP
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG66klAVgmO
小丫撒嬌道：「你別胡說，先生，小丫可沒偷懶！」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdlAL1W9aI
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtnPtrbaMX
李魚看不下去道：「好了，你跟將軍的事早日定下來吧，我也懶得替你們隱瞞下去了。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcy002v7aN
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMm4u4FFy85
其他成員一同道：「恭喜隊長！」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7IbnIQW3n
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNaHQ9PONm
另外的隊員如夢初醒，將軍面皮薄不是擅長應付此事的人，但這際不是時候。446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAuHuGBnhj
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQxZm79EtE
小丫紅著臉繼續道：「那老闆還說他聽說過山仁傑五年前提出過收購古堡的計劃，勞德初時不肯皆因先祖問題，但三年前似乎回心轉意。」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJymtSvYbyW
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjjdXOs0iR
五年前？446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1szT1gXgHV
446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL9mf5a3RV
李魚問：「五年前是山仁傑初到的年份？」446Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwODcOjwA5m
