The ground floor area of the castle mainly maintains two squares, a military station, a family warehouse, and a training field. Under Heising's guidance, it took Alan almost one morning to complete these public areas. The gravity room is an area that requires second level permission to enter. When Heising led Alan to the entrance of the gravity room training area, an old man in sixties was shouting with an alarming volume: "Wipe me clean, you guys. Lazy bug. If I can't finish these tasks before the meal, I will be deducted half-day's wages for all!"
The workers who were working suddenly complained, but no one dared to stop what they were doing, only they worked faster. The old man snorted: "You cheap bones!"
"Fox." Heising shouted with a smile.
The old man turned around leisurely, biting a pipe in his mouth, his eyes rolled up slightly to look at Haixin and said: "Why are you here?"
"This is Master Ellen." Haising pushed Ellen forward and said, "He just arrived at the castle, and I will show him around. Feel free to tell you that Master Ellen's access to the gravity room starts today. Start, you remember to register, and calculate the cumulative time."
Fox glanced at the silver ring between Allen's fingers and nodded, "I remember, but who is this kid? You have to bring it yourself?"
Hai Xin walked forward and whispered in the old man's ear: "It's Miss Er's child, just picked it up."
Fox shook his body slightly, and almost didn't bite the pipe in his mouth. Only then did he look at Allen seriously, and after reading it again from head to toe, Fang nodded and said: "Speaking of this, it is somewhat similar to that of Miss Er when she was young."
Taking down the pipe, Fox walked towards the management room with his hand: "I have something to do, so I won't greet you anymore. You can just walk around."
Hessing is also welcome, leading Allen to the training area. Entering at the gate is a passage connecting a small lounge. The hall is round, with rows of seating seats in the middle, and decorative potted plants next to the load-bearing columns. A circle of single-person gravity rooms are lined up one after the other, with numbers 1 to 9. At this time, all the gravity chambers are in a green vacant state.
There is an electronic screen on the door of each gravity chamber. When someone uses it, it will display the user's name and countdown to the use time to make it easier for people waiting in line to know. According to Heising, the gravity chamber in Ugalle Castle can achieve a maximum power of 50 times the gravity. In the record of the use of the gravity chamber, Horn has used 26 times the gravity for training, and he is also the holder of this record.
Under Horn, it is Roddy, whose record is 15 times. In addition, other records are between 8 to 13 times. As for the theoretical extreme value of the gravity chamber, no one has reached it.
The gravity room is an effective means of high-intensity physical training. It allows the trainer to get good physical training results without loading too much tools. Of course, the more the gravity chamber is activated, the more source force the user needs to offset the suppression caused by gravity. Therefore, while using the gravity room for training, it can also be regarded as a source of strength training.
After leaving the training area, Heising said: "Master Ellen, the federal rewards have been issued, and I have registered for you. You can collect the rewards from the family warehouse in the afternoon. In addition to a status symbol, the silver ring is also embedded with a recording chip. Through the recording chip, you can read all your related information, including resources and objects under your name. Just show your ring to the warehouse supervisor and pass After the brain scans, the relevant rewards can be extracted."
"As for the federal currency payment, the master has opened a private bank account for you. During lunch, I will hand over the relevant items including the key to you. Please be sure to keep it safe."
Allen naturally has no objection to the meticulous and thoughtful arrangements of the old butler. The two are separated from the training area, Heising still needs to deal with some family chores, and Allen walks back to the residence by himself. When he traversed the square, the servants and guards who came to him gave him indistinct gazes. Among them, the maid's gaze was bold and fierce, especially those young and beautiful. In their eyes, even if Alan is just a side child, it is enough to change their destiny.
As for the guards, there is so much disdain hidden in the respect, but at least on the surface, they will respect Alan. Allen keenly felt that the object of their gifts was not so much him as the silver ring in his hand, and even Beth Kod behind it.
Lunch was delivered on time, and Hessing was also here. He sent the relevant documents and keys of the private bank account. The electronic key engraved with Beskard's coat of arms allows Allen to access his bank account at any terminal and perform a series of related operations. . After a simple demonstration, Haising taught Alan to use the key to enter his account and leave. He did not forget to remind Alan to withdraw other rewards in the afternoon.
According to Heising's demonstration, Allen used his brain to enter the account and saw the bank deposit marked with the words 200,000. This is already an astronomical figure for him. It is necessary to know that the annual expenditure of ordinary families on the surface is only a few thousand.
Just a set of numbers, you can see the huge gap between the floating island and the surface.
After lunch, Allen went to the family warehouse. The family warehouse is located on the west side of the ground floor of the main building. It is a huge material storage platform, with vehicles coming in and out every day, transporting all the resources of the castle from the outside. The family warehouse has several scheduling windows, one of which is exclusively for private members of the family. The materials in the warehouse can be purchased directly with money in addition to the income from the distribution of the family.
This private dispatch window is set up for this purpose. Family members can use this window to extract or purchase the materials they need. The list of materials provided by Beskod is even more outrageous, ranging from physical strengthening potions to weapons and equipment, from ordinary brain terminals to advanced Rubik's Cube sequence components, and even Magic Speed. The abundance of reserves is staggering. Of course, if you want to purchase a large number of military supplies or war-level resources such as mana flying ships, you need to purchase them from other channels. These things are not what a family warehouse can provide.
When Allen arrived, there were several teenagers in front of the private dispatch window. One of the supervisor-like men was nodding and bowing at one of the fifteen or sixteen-year-old, strong boys.
"Master Vincent, this is really unruly. You see, these things are ordered by the Butler Heising himself, and there are already owners, so I can’t sell them to you." The dispatch supervisor wiped the sweat from his forehead. , Said with a wry smile.
The big boy named Vincent grabbed the supervisor's collar and said, "Fart, since the things that are in the family warehouse are naturally open to family members. We haven't stolen or robbed them, so why can't we buy them? Rick, stop talking nonsense. Don’t forget, you also asked my father to send your eldest son to the Shield of Hope Academy. If you are so ignorant, I will ask your father to cancel your help!"
There are two schools in Babylon. One is the blade of dawn and the other is the shield of hope. The former recruits only the children of aristocratic families and cultivates elites in various fields for the nobles; the latter recruits a large number of young students for the general public on the floating islands, aiming to cultivate the usefulness of the federal army and continuously provide for the huge army fresh blood.
For civilians, being able to enter the Shield of Hope, even after graduation, can become a non-commissioned officer. Those with excellent grades may be favored by famous nobles and be absorbed as children of foreign races, which is also a shortcut to enter the upper class.
The dispatch supervisor obviously wanted the Vincent’s house, so he had to laugh bitterly, and finally said: "Well, I pretend to be deaf and dumb."
Though the supplies were put into the warehouse by the Butler of Haising himself, they have already been registered under the name of a person named Allen. However, the name of this person is unknown, and he is not a big man, perhaps he is a relative of Butler Heising. For those who have no real power, he can completely shirk himself and let Vincent and others buy it without knowing it. At most, if a scapegoat is pushed out, it will be nothing.
"It's pretty much the same." Vincent smiled, and winked at the other boys, and asked them to go into the warehouse with the supervisor to withdraw the loan.
It's just that the dispatch supervisor didn't understand why Vincent was so coincidental that he came to the family warehouse not long after that batch of masterpieces arrived. What he didn't know was that Vincent received Kudof's prompt in the morning, knowing that Allen's reward had been issued. Except that the bonus had been transferred to Allen's private account, Vincent could not get involved, but other things were put into the family warehouse, but gave him a chance.
This was to beat Allen, and at the same time, a few things on the reward list really made Vincent a heartbeat. For example, a set of second-grade magic weaponry, or that high-level physical strengthening potion, these things are usually not available even if Vincent has money. Because resources like this are generally given priority to the direct blood relatives of the family, there is no turn for the offspring like Vincent.
So Vincent focused on these things, but he couldn't eat so much by himself, so he hired a few teenagers who usually had close contacts to buy together. Seeing that the supervisor had opened the warehouse, a quiet and indifferent voice rang behind him: "Excuse me, I seemed to hear a batch of materials registered and put into the warehouse through Haising Butler?"
The dispatch supervisor stiffened, thinking it would not be so coincidental, just in time for someone to pick up the goods, right? He turned around, and then he saw Alan. Allen raised the silver ring on his finger and said: "If there is no accident, the supplies belong to me. My name is Allen."
The supervisor suddenly felt a terrible headache. It wasn't the boss who came to pick up the goods, but the silver ring on Allen's finger. That represents the owner of the second-level authority, and even the owner of this ring, he can't offend him.
As for Vincent, his eyelids jumped sharply, and his gaze also fell on the silver ring. Because in his hand, there is also such a ring. He never expected that a kid who had just joined the family would have the same status as himself!
