Baron Barney was invited to visit Pompeii Manor the next day.
Chen Lun came to punch in for work on time in the morning and found a unique carriage at the gate of the manor.
After entering the villa, I saw a slightly plump middle-aged man sitting on the sofa and chatting with Viscount Pompey.
"Come on, Barney, let me introduce you."
Viscount Pompey enthusiastically introduced Chen Lun to his good friends.
"This is the tutor I found for Rebecca, Mr. Jack."
"Hello, Mr. Barney."
Chen Lun extended his hand in a friendly manner.
Baron Barney looked at him for a few moments, then smiled and held out his hand.
"How young! I didn't expect Mr. Jack to be a scholar at such a young age..."
He immediately turned around and asked Viscount Pompey in confusion:
"I remember you went to see Mrs. Youlai, didn't you?"
Viscount Pompey smiled awkwardly, gave a brief explanation, and passed it over lightly.
The Viscount then told Chen Lun that Rebecca had been frightened yesterday and was still resting. He asked Chen Lun to visit the villa by himself and walk around the manor at will.
After saying that, he and Baron Barney sat back on the sofa.
Chen Lun heard the subtext of Viscount Pompey, which was that he didn't want to disturb his conversation with Baron Barney.
"It's about the horse yesterday..."
He thought to himself.
Viscount Pompey would most likely ask Baron Barney about this matter, but out of consideration for his old friend's face, he would not allow outsiders to be present.
Chen Lun found the butler Binoz who was directing the maids to clean another hall.
"Butler Binoz."
He walked up and said hello.
"Mr. Jack, how can I help you?"
The old butler saw him, straightened up and said with a smile.
Through Chen Lun's performance in the past two days, Binoz has a different impression of this young man.
It can be seen that Viscount and Viscount Pompey were not as averse to him as they were at the beginning.
As the steward of the manor, the old man who has experienced two generations of Viscount Pompey would be more compliant with his master's opinions, and naturally his attitude towards Chen Lun would be slightly better.
"The Viscount said that he would allow me to visit the villa. I would like to go to the study to take a look. Is that okay?"
Chen Lun said politely.
Binoz showed a surprised expression.
"Oh, of course, the Viscount will not turn away a scholar who loves knowledge...
Especially since he is Miss Rebecca's teacher."
The old butler gestured upstairs.
"Come on, Mr. Jack, please follow me this way."
Chen Lun followed Butler Binoz upstairs.
The spiral wooden staircase was wide and shiny because the maids wiped it clean every day.
On one side of the second floor, there is an exhibition hall filled with artworks.
The old butler did not stay for long. He took Chen Lun in and then walked to the other side of the exhibition hall.
"This is it, Mr. Jack. If you need anything else, you can come to me."
He said, bowed slightly and left.
Chen Lun looked at the room full of books with shining eyes.
"Wow, there are so many books... You have to give me one with extraordinary knowledge, right!?"
Thinking about this, Chen Lun took action directly.
The study is located on one side of the art exhibition hall, but the interior space is slightly larger than the exhibition hall.
There is a chandelier hanging from the ceiling, which consists of eight light bulbs, illuminating the entire study. It is very spacious here, and the bookcases on the four walls are attached to the ceiling, filled with various large books neatly arranged.
Two wooden ladders were placed on the side for people to take books easily. In the middle of the study, there was a large desk and several chairs where people could sit down to read and copy.
This is very nice for Chen Lun!
Time flies.
He had not yet finished reading the books on one wall when he picked up a thin book with a yellow cover and opened it.
You discovered the Nature Faction Mystery Book!
"On Survival Instinct" (5% progress)
By reading carefully, you gain 25 experience points
You have discovered the hidden knowledge of the extraordinary path (complete)!
Nature Faction Sequence 9 Savage
Chen Lun looked delighted.
"Really! And it's a hidden way!"
Am I of European descent
It must be!
He took the book in his hand and hurried down the wooden stairs.
Sit down at the desk and read carefully without wasting any time.
More than an hour passed.
"On Survival Instinct" (15% progress)
By reading carefully, you gain 50 experience points
By reading carefully, you will gain some experience and understand the skill of the jungle!
The strong prey on the weak LV1 (Passive)
Skill Description: Years of experience as an animal trainer have given you a deeper understanding of nature.
In the animal world, the strong prey on the weak, and the law of nature is survival of the fittest.
You can improve your own attributes by observing how animals survive and reproduce, which are limited to strength, dexterity, endurance, charm and insight, and the upper limit of each item is increased by 1 point, which cannot be obtained repeatedly.
"An auxiliary passive skill that improves one's own attributes?"
Chen Lun was a little surprised.
This type of skill is quite rare, and although the attributes improved are limited, they are permanent.
A blacksmith must be strong himself, and panel attributes are the basis of strength.
He was very satisfied with this skill.
Chen Lun allocated 4 skill points to it, started charging directly, and maxed it out instantly.
The strong prey on the weak LVMAX (Passive)
Skill Description: ... limited to Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, Charisma and Insight, and the upper limit of each item is increased by 5 points, and cannot be obtained repeatedly.
"Five attributes, each can be improved by 5 points, adding up to 25 points...!?"
This is a pretty impressive number!
It is almost equivalent to the benefits of upgrading to level 10 out of thin air.
It also includes two special attributes, Charm and Insight. These two attributes cannot be improved through attribute points and are very precious.
"It's a big profit... Fortunately, the fate faction path I took has something in common with this nature faction path."
Chen Lun sighed secretly.
Logically speaking, each sequence can only acquire the skills of its own path through the corresponding extraordinary knowledge.
But there are exceptions, such as Chen Lun’s current situation.
In his previous life, he had vaguely guessed from this phenomenon that perhaps there were unknown connections and secrets between each sequence.
Knock knock.
There were two gentle knocks on the door.
Chen Lun turned around and saw the old butler Binoz standing at the door, making an apologetic gesture.
"Sorry to bother you while you're reading, Mr. Jack. The Viscount invites you to have lunch with him in the restaurant...
In addition, the Viscount's family and Baron Barney will go out in the afternoon to visit the Cuiti Zoo.
The Viscount asked me to ask you if you want to go with us."
Chen Lun stood up and stuffed the yellow book in his hand into a corner of the bookshelf.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to touch it a few times, reluctant to leave.
"This book is great. I'll treat you to it next time..."
Then he turned and walked to the door, giving a polite smile.
"Of course, I'd like to go along. It's my honor."
