Chapter 360: Ji Ji Ji, I am King Ji Ji.
early morning.
Jiang Nanxi opened his eyes in his temporary residence in Sucheng.
Since Shanghai City had been destroyed in the aftermath of the previous battle, she and Jiang Wang could only temporarily settle in Su City.
Fortunately, it was not too stressful for them to buy a new house, but it was a pity to lose the souvenirs in the previous house.
Such as the posthumous photo of Jiang Nanxi's mother.
But, if it’s gone, it’s gone. We must always look forward.
"It's time to go to work again." Jiang Nanxi had a face full of resentment. He simply washed up and prepared to go downstairs for breakfast.
Now that she has reached the age of internship, it is naturally impossible for her to be as leisurely as before.
"Buzz~"
At this moment, the subtle vibration of a cell phone attracted Jiang Nanxi's attention. She picked up the phone and muttered, "Who is it? So early."
But when Jiang Nanxi turned on the screen, his mouth instantly turned into an "O" shape.
She ran down the stairs quickly with a "dong dong dong" sound.
"Dad, have you seen the news?"
"Russell has been promoted to Master Level!?"
Then Jiang Nanxi saw his father sitting on the sofa with a serious face watching the morning news, and the person appearing on the TV screen at this time was his old classmate.
Noticing her arrival, Jiang Wang said without turning his head: "You are not young anymore, can't you be more steady?"
"Look at Russell."
"Forget it, you'd better not watch it."
Hearing his father's words, Jiang Nanxi's face suddenly fell, and he couldn't help but groaned: "Dad, you are only at the Emerald level now, right?"
"How dare you say that to me."
Jiang Wangquan pretended not to hear these words and just watched the news report attentively.
[.It is said that Master Luo made outstanding contributions in our country's previous battles against the demon army and laid an important foundation for the peace of the Ming Dynasty]
It is not difficult to see from the report that several senior executives of Ye Zhou used the Spring and Autumn method to blur Russell's real card maker level, and emphasized his combat power comparable to that of a master.
But this is also to be expected. After all, the reason for informing the entire Ming Dynasty is to stabilize people's hearts. There is no need to mention such trivial matters.
Well, it's just a side issue.
At this time, Jiang Nanxi was still a little dazed, and anyone else would have the same reaction.
It’s like your high school desk mate suddenly tells you one day that he is the richest man.
Jiang Nanxi subconsciously stroked the fox's head in his arms, and muttered with some doubt about life: "No, Russell didn't behave so exaggerated when he was in school, right?"
Okay, that’s a bit exaggerated actually.
But she remembered that when she went to find him some time ago, wasn't he only at diamond level?
The morning news started broadcasting the next news shortly, as if it was just an insignificant announcement.
Seeing that there was no more news, Jiang Wang stood up and said expressionlessly: "Okay, let's have breakfast."
Hearing this, Jiang Nanxi squinted at his old father and said speechlessly, "Dad, if you want to laugh, just laugh. There's no need to pretend in front of me."
Relying on the relationship between his family and Russell, it can be said that no one in the Ming Dynasty would dare to provoke the father and daughter in the future.
However, Jiang Wang and Jiang Nanxi are not of this kind. They are just friends and elders of Russell and are happy for him from the bottom of their hearts.
". Not too big or too small, Nanxi, when will you be as good as Ronaldinho?"
“Can I compete with him?”
Although the reaction of the Jiang father and daughter was not exaggerated, the news of Russell's "promotion" to the master level had already caused an uproar in the Ming Dynasty.
You have to know that he is a master-level card maker. If you don't count Ye Zhou, who is at the hall-level level, there are only three masters in the entire Ming Dynasty.
And the last time this happened was more than ten years ago when Ji Weirui was promoted.
"My goodness, this Master Luo looks younger than my son."
"You know what? I seem to have some impression of Master Luo. Let me think about it. He was the champion of a national competition a few years ago. So he doesn't seem to be that old when you think about it."
After the Ming people dug out Russell’s resume, the Internet fell silent.
Looking at the young man's extremely brilliant resume, they didn't know what to say for a moment.
And according to the latest official news, Russell personally killed a military leader in a one-on-one battle with the demon army.
".This is too exaggerated, so outrageous that I even doubt it is fake."
"You don't even use your brain when you say this. If it's false, how do you think we convinced Russia to cooperate? You have to know that the battle against the demon army is a joint operation between the two countries."
"Too."
As the news gradually spread, several countries around the Ming Dynasty also learned of this news.
Those who had friction with the Ming Dynasty naturally restrained themselves a little after preparation, while those who had friendly relations with the Ming Dynasty couldn't help but have an idea in their hearts.
It’s so great to be a dog of the Ming Dynasty!
However, everything that happened in the outside world at this time had little to do with Russell.
He was dealing with the Russians.
Looking at Petrovna in front of him, Russell asked with a headache: "Your Highness, did you sneak here alone?"
Since the demon army still had some unfinished business to deal with, he stayed in the north for the time being.
So when his subordinates informed him this morning that the Russian princess wanted to see him, Russell was a little confused about her purpose for a moment.
Petrovna ignored Russell's words, put her hands on the table, and said with sparkling eyes: "Mr. Luo, you are so amazing!"
As the crown prince, she learned the details shortly after the war ended. After hearing that Catherine and Nicholas were not in danger of life, she couldn't help but feel relieved.
Then she saw the battle report.
Hearing Petrovna's words, Russell couldn't help but sigh: "Your Highness, if you have something serious to say, just say it directly."
"Otherwise I have other things to deal with."
He felt that his charm was not strong enough to make the heir to the empire in front of him fall into his arms, so the other party must have other purposes in appearing here at this time.
What's more, his ears are almost callused from all the flattery during this period.
Seeing that they were talking about serious matters, Petrovna sat back in her chair, and a tablet suddenly appeared in her hand: "Mr. Luo, my mother asked me to give this to you. It contains the master-level materials owned by the empire. You can choose one from them."
"?"
Russell was stunned. He never expected things to turn out like this.
However, he did not take the tablet. Instead, he said cautiously, "No merit, no reward. I appreciate the empire's kindness."
Russell didn't think there would be such a thing as a free lunch, let alone such a huge pie as master-level materials. As a huge empire that had lasted from the beginning of the secret realm, the master-level materials stored by Tsarist Russia over the years were definitely not less than those of the Ming Dynasty.
Even as an imperial country, it might even be more than the Ming Dynasty.
But all this has nothing to do with Russell. Even if it was because he had killed Tempest before, it was totally unnecessary.
After all, the Ming Dynasty and Tsarist Russia were in a cooperative relationship, and it was Russell's duty to fight against the military leader.
However, Petrovna seemed to have expected him to say this, and immediately explained: "Mr. Luo, I will not hide it from you. The Empire just wants to get closer to you."
"And Ye Qing and the others also know about this."
Perhaps for an individual, a piece of master-level material is hard to come by, but for a behemoth like an empire, although it is not a drop in the bucket, it will not cause much impact.
It is very worthwhile to use it to get closer to geniuses like Russell.
But it was still unrealistic to open its arms to him completely like the Ming Dynasty did, unless Russell was willing to marry into the imperial royal family.
After hearing Petrovna's explanation, Russell immediately took out his cell phone to confirm with Ye Zhou.
Seeing that he didn't trust her, Petrovna couldn't help but purse her lips.
Soon, Russell received a positive response from Ye Zhou.
In that case, there is no point in refusing. Don’t miss it.
He pretended nothing had happened and stretched out his right hand to take the tablet: "Then Your Highness, please thank Her Majesty Catherine for her kindness on my behalf."
After saying this, Russell began to look through the master-level materials provided by Tsarist Russia.
Master Level [Unruly Robbery] (Red), Master Level [God of Gods Absolution Code (Damaged)] (Red)
It must be said that there are indeed a lot of master-level materials, and Russell was a little dazzled for a while.
But soon, his eyes narrowed.
"【Destined Savior】(Red)?"
"If I choose this material, then wouldn't it mean that I will have all the materials for my first master-level card?"
Russell couldn't help but mutter in his heart.
Originally, he was planning to promote Altria to the master level first, but the materials required were really too much. After all, just like her promotion to the Emerald level, the [Holy Spear Rongomyniad] must also be produced.
Therefore, Russell had to change his plan and turn his attention to other cards.
Coincidentally, there is a card in his system that is very suitable.
After all, a master-level demon named the Country-Destroying Fox appeared in Shanghai City before. In addition, Fang Wenlong obtained a master-level [Origin of the Immortal Way] (red) after he killed the white-robed commander of the demon army.
By this calculation, there are already two sets of suitable materials.
It just so happened that today Tsarist Russia sent the last set of materials to him. If Russell didn’t choose it, he would really have something wrong with his brain.
But before that, there is a very important question.
That is.
He hasn't been promoted to master level yet!
Russell now felt like there were ten thousand kittens tickling him, making him itchy.
"Sure enough, there is a watershed between the master level and the diamond level." He couldn't help but sigh silently, "But if I succeed in being promoted to the master level, I should be able to connect with the world consciousness."
Russell, who has already realized that he is very different from ordinary card makers, always feels that when that day comes, the countless doubts in his heart will be answered.
Thinking of this, he adjusted his mood and said to Petrovna: "Your Highness, I will choose this material."
"Oh, OK." Petrovna took the tablet, looked at it, nodded and said, "Uncle Nicholas will deliver it in a few days, so Luo Qing just wait patiently."
"Then I'll leave first, Luo Qing."
After the war with the demonic army ended, Grand Duke Nicholas rushed back to Tsarist Russia and took charge of the situation.
After all, it was a bit difficult for Petrovna, a diamond-level card maker, to handle it alone.
Watching the girl leave, Russell couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
He could see that she had matured a bit compared to when she had gone with him to deal with the demon army's attacks. Although she still behaved like a girl at times, overall she was not as naive as before.
As the days passed, the impact of having a new master gradually subsided within the Ming Dynasty.
After all, this kind of thing has nothing to do with most people.
After the demon army was gone, the huge number of card makers of the Northern Defense Army could greatly alleviate the pressure suffered by various parts of the Ming Dynasty.
Russell was also happy to have some free time, so he chose to rest in Nandu for a while.
At this moment, he was resting his head on his senior sister's plump thighs, staring blankly at the ceiling, which he could only see half of.
"Sister, why do people live?"
".It's not night time."
"?"
Hearing Walnut's answer, Russell couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
On another sofa in the living room, Amina was no longer surprised by this.
What she was curious about now was whether His Majesty the King of Great Britain was as unconventional as her own master in private.
Amina, who already had some knowledge of card makers, of course knew that Russell was as big a figure as His Majesty the King.
Not knowing the strange thoughts in Amina's mind, Russell straightened up and looked at Walnut with a serious face and said: "Senior Sister, you have changed."
Hearing this, Hu Tao's expression remained unchanged. She simply bent down, picked up the book on the coffee table and began to read: "Junior brother, it's time for you to go."
"Okay, I'm going to take advantage of you and refuse to admit it. Senior sister, you are starting to dislike me!"
Russell huffed in anger.
Seeing his expression, Kurumi pursed her lips and said seriously, "I didn't."
"I'm just kidding, Senior Sister." Russell laughed awkwardly and changed the subject. "I understand. I'll be leaving for Shanghai in the next two days."
Although the demon army has been eliminated, Jinping's master card makers who were hostile to the Ming Dynasty are still alive.
Not to mention the existence of two master-level secret realms on the coast of Shanghai, plus the missing nation-destroying fox demon, the current situation of the Ming Dynasty can only be said to be slightly better, but not completely better.
However, Russell did not do nothing during this rest period.
The destruction of the demon army undoubtedly greatly enriched the Ming Dynasty's material reserves, from the black iron level to the diamond level.
It is also because of this that Russell was able to complete the materials that Aizen lacked.
Diamond-level [Lone Seeker] (red), Diamond-level [Essence of Manifestation] (red).
Unfortunately, the last set of venue materials is still missing, even after Russell asked Tsarist Russia.
However, if venue materials were not scarce, it would not be the case that Ji Weirui would not be the only master card makers Russell knows who owns a venue card.
Thinking of this, Russell breathed a sigh of relief: "Before that, Senior Sister, let me rest for two more days."
"Ah."
