Chapter 365 Summer bugs can't speak ice (please order all!)

Although Erin didn't seem to understand why her father did it, Russell could fully understand why her father did it.

Joining the army is not a game!

Even in an army like Nova Corps, and Irene's father is the current centurion director of Nova Corps, joining the army is not an easy thing.

With the help of Erin's father, Erin can indeed get more opportunities in Nova Corps than others.

But don't forget that any civilized army is an armed organization.

The nature of the army does not change significantly because of cultural differences.

In such an armed organization, even with the so-called unspoken rules and background influence, there is one thing that cannot be avoided, and that is its own strength.

To put it badly, even if Irene's father is the current centurion director, if Irene's own abilities are not enough, even if her father wants to promote her, it is impossible.

In the army, individuals are forcibly promoted because their abilities are not up to standard, and it is easy to encounter things that subordinates do not obey orders at all.

To be more serious, he will even be directly overridden and turned into a nominal officer.

In addition, there is a very important point.

Erin is an only child!

Heart-to-heart, if Russell was Irene's father, he would never let Irene join the army.

There are many ways to inherit the power of the father. It does not mean that you must follow the same path as the father in order to inherit the power of the father.

"Then when did you start teaching me?"

After hearing Russell's answer, Irene immediately posted it, holding Russell's right arm excitedly, and Kazlan looked at him with her big eyes shining.

"Even if I want to teach you, it's not now."

"And before you learn magic, you still have a lot of things to prepare for. It's not that you can learn it if you want to learn it."

Feeling the softness from his right arm, Russell said calmly.

"What am I going to do to prepare?"

Erin asked next.

"Uh... This is not a good place to talk about these things. If you want to know, I will tell you slowly when I go back."

Russell is not going to tell Erin what to prepare for becoming a mage apprentice here.

If nothing else, there is still a bodyguard standing still like a statue in front of them.

"Uh-huh!"

Irene did not continue to ask questions, and answered quickly.

After answering Russell, Irene looked at the sculpture-like bodyguard and the bodyguard behind who was calling the housekeeper.

Although she didn't speak now, Russell immediately understood what she meant.

Without Irene's reminder, Russell cast magic again and completely imprisoned the bodyguard who was on the phone behind.

"Okay, it's done, let's go!"

Russell said to Erin.

"Uh-huh!"

Although her bodyguards have now lost the ability to move, Irene is not worried about her own safety.

If she would worry about this, she wouldn't take the initiative to invite Russell to live at her house.

As for whether there will be any problems with these two bodyguards, this is not in her consideration.

Although Irene is not the kind of charming person, but no matter what, she is a famous second-generation army in Xandar.

Even though she usually behaves very understanding, she still has some subconsciousness in her bones that doesn't put ordinary people in her heart.

Besides, this is Nova City, the capital of Xandar Star.

The security of Nova City, in the city of Xandar, is the second, if not the first.

Moreover, those two bodyguards were not real bodyguards, but active-duty soldiers of Nova Corps with military rank.

Even if they have lost the ability to act now, they can only stand still like sculptures, and they don't need to worry about what accidents will happen to them.

It didn't take long for Erin to bring Russell to her luxury car.

After seeing the driver get out of the car to help her open the door, she said to the driver, "I don't have anything to do with you here, you can go back first."

"Miss, are you going to drive back by yourself?"

The driver asked quickly.

"No, Russell will drive me home."

After answering the driver, Irene turned to Russell and asked, "Can you drive?"

"Of course, and my driving skills are pretty good."

Russell said with a smile.

Although he has never driven this kind of suspension car of Xandar star, as long as he looks at the setting of the driving position, he can know that the suspension car is similar to the vehicle on earth.

Even if it is different, with his current learning ability, he can learn it immediately.

As for the fact that he doesn't have a Xandar star driver's license now, this is not in his consideration at all.

"Then it's up to you to drive."

Erin said with a smile.

After speaking, he walked straight to the co-pilot's seat, opened the door and sat in.

After seeing Irene's actions, Russell did not hesitate, opened the main driver's door, and got into the car.

After looking at the steering wheel and various buttons and instruments in the car, he quickly determined the way to drive the hover car.

Under Erin's gaze, he successfully started the vehicle and held the steering wheel that was somewhat different from the steering wheel of the Earth's car.

After Irene set the navigation route, he decisively stepped on the "accelerator" and drove towards Irene's house.

In the same metropolis, the traffic environment of Nova City is obviously much better than that of New York.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Xandar Star's cars will fly.

Although Xandar Star's hover car cannot fly at high altitudes like an airplane, even so, after breaking away from the ground's restrictions, the traffic environment in Nova City is not generally good.

Coupled with the artificial intelligence on each hover car, there is no need to worry about installing buildings or other hover vehicles while driving.

In fact, with the technological level of Xandar Star, it is completely possible to achieve unmanned driving.

However, Xandar Star's luxury suspension cars basically still retain manual driving.

There is no other reason. In the case where most people can only use unmanned driving, having a dedicated driver to drive manually has become a sign of distinguishing status.

After all, raising a dedicated driver is much more expensive than updating the on-board artificial intelligence.

It didn't take long for Russell and Irene to arrive at their destination in about twenty minutes.

Irene's luxurious residence is not in the city center, but in the famous wealthy area of ​​Nova City.

Compared with the city center, not only is the green environment better, there are fewer pedestrians, but it is also quieter.

Parking the hover car in front of and behind the gate of the villa, Russell and Irene got out of the car and entered the villa.

As soon as he entered the villa, Russell discovered the biggest difference between the rich man's villa on Xandar Star and the rich man's villa on Earth.

Artificial Intelligence Butler!

The wealthy villas of Xandar Star, without exception, are all equipped with artificial intelligence butlers, and they are not the regular version that ordinary people can use, but the customized version.

On Earth, apart from Russell who owns No. 3, only Tony can deploy artificial intelligence where he lives.

In Xandar, let alone the rich, even ordinary people have artificial intelligence at home.

This is the technology gap!

After seeing Russell looking at her place, Irene said quickly, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not the kind of person who will bring men home casually, you are the first."

After hearing Irene's words, Russell said with a smile, "I didn't say that you are the kind of person who would bring men home casually. Why are you so nervous?"

Although he knew why Irene suddenly said such a sentence, after seeing Irene's pretty face blushing because of alcohol, Russell couldn't help but have the idea of ​​teasing her.

Since he became a godfather, or rather, since he became known on earth, he has rarely experienced the feeling of being able to joke with a woman he just met.

Because of being too famous, those women will inevitably have some pressure when facing him.

Although he can change his appearance and disguise himself as someone else to deal with these women.

But pretending to be someone else to do so always feels a little less.

So on Earth, apart from joking in front of Diana Gwen and others, he can't do that in front of other women.

Because even if he was joking, those women couldn't help but wonder if he had any potential meaning.

And once you have this kind of intellectual guessing and thinking, it's boring to communicate.

After coming to the living room to sit down, Irene originally planned to go to the wine cabinet to get wine.

However, the moment she got up, she changed her mind.

Instead of going to the wine cabinet to get wine, she took out tea leaves and a tea set and brewed tea for Russell.

I have to say that when Irene started making tea, she showed an obvious ladylike temperament.

Russell didn't know if the Xandar people had the habit of drinking tea, but judging from Irene's actions, the Xandar people should also drink tea.

Because when Irene brewed tea, there was an obvious process that seemed meaningless.

And this also means that there is also a tea culture on the Xandar star.

After making a cup of tea for Russell and herself, Irene handed one of the cups to Russell.

Then, very obediently sat opposite Russell and said to Russell: "I haven't made tea for a long time, I don't know if my craftsmanship has regressed."

After hearing Irene's words, Russell blew lightly on the steaming tea soup.

Then, he took a sip.

“It tastes good!”

Russell gave his opinion.

Although the tea of ​​Xandar Star is not the same as the tea on earth, the tea of ​​Xandar Star is not bad to drink.

He can even endure Gu Yi's heretical practice of adding honey to tea, let alone the tea from Shangshan Darxing.

After hearing Russell's answer, Irene finally took a breath, picked up the teacup in front of her, and took a sip.

Then, she asked Russell, "You said just now that I still have a lot of things to prepare before I learn magic."

"Now that I'm back, you should be able to tell me, what exactly am I going to prepare?"

After learning that Russell could do magic, Irene, who grew up in technological civilization, immediately developed a strong interest in magic.

Although there are no so-called mages on Xandar Star, as a well-known interstellar civilization in the universe, Xandar Star also has some investigation and understanding of magic.

The most typical is Asgard, which also belongs to the interstellar civilization, but is not on the road of technological civilization.

"Before answering your question, I want to ask you a question."

"In your perception, what kind of existence do you think a mage is?"

Russell asked Erin.

"What kind of existence is a mage?"

After hearing Russell's question, Irene frowned slightly.

However, she quickly gave her own answer.

"Although I don't know what kind of abilities a mage has, in my opinion, a mage is similar to a scientist."

"It's just that the scientific knowledge mastered by scientists, and the magical knowledge mastered by mages."

"Scientists can create various weapons with the scientific knowledge they have mastered, and mages can also use the magical knowledge they have mastered to perform all kinds of magic."

"Although the manifestations are not the same, they should all be the use of some existing rules."

Russell didn't expect much from Erin's answer.

But after hearing Erin's answer, he couldn't help but light up.

A person who grew up in a technological civilization did not regard magic as a heresy, but regarded it as another form of utilizing the rules of the world.

Although this is only a very rough understanding, it is not easy for Irene to have such an understanding.

If it was someone else, even if they had seen him perform magic, they might still say that magic is just a field that science has not yet touched and studied.

From a scientific point of view, this statement is not wrong.

But from a magical point of view, this statement is not generally outrageous.

Science is indeed a means of studying the world, but the problem is that magic is in a field that science cannot reach.

This is not the problem that Xia Zong can't speak ice, but the two are not in the same dimension at all.

After seeing Russell's current expression, Irene continued: "I haven't been exposed to magic before, so this is just what I said casually, and I don't know if it's right."

"No, it's not a question of right or wrong."

"It's a good thing that you can have such an idea, at least you don't think that magic is an area that science has not yet studied."

"In words that you can understand, magic is indeed the use of certain rules."

"Although this is not a rule within the scope of science, magic also needs to follow certain rules."

"As for what preparations you need to do before learning magic, I can tell you now."

"Like learning other knowledge, if you want to learn magic, you must have a pretty good brain."

"In addition, if you want to learn magic, you must also have the potential to awaken magic."

"If you can't awaken your magic power, you can't become a real mage no matter how much magic knowledge you have mastered."

Russell looked at Irene and said seriously.

"Then how can I know if I have the potential to awaken magic power?"

Erin asked again.

"This is very simple, just let me check it for you."

Russell's expression became extremely serious.
