Wandou is a very lively little girl.
And she has a skill that allows her to baba non-stop while drinking water and eating - this skill should be attributed to her weird magic device called "Nerve Thorn".
The banquet is still going on, but Asalena is not very interested in paying attention to the "diplomatic progress" of Sir Gorosh. With the good eloquence and affinity she developed during her travels, she has already In a short period of time, I became friends with this little girl named "Pea". They hid in an inconspicuous corner and tasted Cecil's special delicacies, and Pea - Pea's mouth was full. , but he kept talking.
"...My dad is usually very busy. He finally took a long vacation last winter, but he spent half of the day wandering around, either looking for people to drink or watching football games. I told you He refused to listen many times. Did you know that it was invented by His Majesty? I am not interested, but the boys like it very much... Mom? I was adopted by my father, and I can’t remember what my biological mother looks like. Now...
"Now? Not now, my father has never been married, but he always said that he had many close relationships with women when he was young... I suspect he is bragging, because I haven't seen any of them... Huh? Don't you think so? Why? "
Wandou said with great interest, but at this moment, a trace of doubt suddenly appeared: "Ah, by the way, sister, why are you so interested in my father's affairs? "
Asarena finally found a chance to speak. She smiled: "I know your father, little girl. "
Pea's mouth was filled with cake, his eyes widened, and a strange snoring sound came from the speaker.
"I knew each other twenty years ago. At that time, he was still a mercenary captain," Asarena said with a smile. She found this little girl named Wandou more and more interesting. Even her expression of being so surprised that she was about to choke was so interesting, "Little girl Girl, your dad is not bragging - at least when he was young, he never had many women around him. "
While Wandou struggled to swallow the food in his mouth, a suspicious voice came from the speaker; "...Really? "
"Of course it's true," Asarena took a glass of water from the side and handed it to Peas. "You can ask him in person later. "
Wandou blinked his eyes with a surprised and weird expression. It took him a long time to finally organize meaningful words: "...Then I shouldn't call you sister, auntie. ”
Asalena’s movement of handing over the water glass froze instantly.
At this moment, she was finally 100% sure that this little girl named Pea was indeed brought up by Byron. .
......
Sir Gorrosh had a friendly conversation with Emperor Gawain Cecil, but their conversation was not in depth.
< p>As a banquet for the first time, this is not a place to discuss state affairs in depth, and the two people are from completely different backgrounds.People from different social environments and even different races needed some time to slowly adapt to each other's rhythm when they first met. They had a casual conversation about the customs and customs of their respective countries, and also talked about their prospects for peace in the future. , and then Gawain temporarily left, leaving time for Sir Gorosh - and the advisors and entourage he brought.A few minutes later, Sir Gorosh finally found the Dragon Seal Witch wandering in the hall. He walked quickly towards her: "Ms. Asarena, I was looking for you just now. Where are you going...Ms. Asarena? You don't look very good?"
Hearing Sir Gorosh's voice, Asarena finally woke up from her slightly dazed state. Coming over, she quickly shook her head, then tapped her temple with one finger, and said almost in a whisper: "I'm fine, I'm fine... Ah, Sir Gorosh, what did you talk about with His Majesty Gawain?"< /p>
"Just some pleasantries and an introduction to his country," Gorosh said casually, "His Majesty Gawain is a straightforward and knowledgeable person, and it is a pleasure to talk with him... Asarei Ms. Na, are you really okay? Your face looks like you've eaten a whole basin of spoiled pickled peas..."
"...Sir Gorosh"
Sir Gorosh was startled by Asarena's gloomy expression: "What's wrong?"
"Your wisecracks that are three centuries out of date are really not funny at all!! ”
“? ”
……
Gawain left the banquet hall of the Qiu Palace, and he came to the Qiu Palace with only a few followers. In the small courtyard at the rear.
A magic vehicle has been waiting here for a long time.
Gawain walked directly to the car. The air nearby suddenly trembled and twisted. Amber's figure gradually emerged from it and jumped lightly to Gawain's side.
"I thought you would accompany those guests from the Holy Dragon Principality throughout the whole journey," Amber raised her eyelids and glanced at Gawain while opening the car door, "That is the mysterious 'Dragonborn'. "
"The dragon is more mysterious than them, and I have dealt with it a lot," Gawain bent down and sat in the car, and said casually while looking at Amber getting in the car behind him, "Hetty and Rebecca will host the second half of the banquet in my place, and the presence of two direct royals is enough for etiquette - as for me, I have to do something more meaningful than talking diplomatic rhetoric to people at the banquet.”
"I very much agree with your last sentence - let's go," Amber raised her eyebrows and said with a smile. She said hello to the mechanic driving in front, and then turned back Looking at Gao Wen, "Another group of 'guests' are already waiting at the North Shore Development Zone. They seem a little uneasy, but they are still obeying the order."
"...uneasy?" Gao Wen frowned He frowned and said, "I didn't imprison them."
"Yes, not only did you not imprison them, you also sent priests and nuns to take care of them," HuPo rolled his eyes, "You might as well just send the army there."
The corners of Gawain's eyes couldn't help but tremble.
"There's nothing we can do about it," he sighed. "They are a group of experts in the spiritual field. Although they have expressed their surrender, I dare not let the routine be used until the observation test is completely ended. personnel to contact those people. Compared with ordinary soldiers, the white knights and armed nuns who are determined, have received special willpower training, and are protected by high-intensity holy light at all times have extremely high mental resistance, making them Going to the scene is the safest way I can think of."
Amber nodded helplessly: "Okay, that's right."
One area in the North Shore Development Zone has not yet been repaired. In the public assembly hall, Yuri and a large number of Eternal Sleeper priests who had changed their clothes were resting in the hall.
Among them were the priests who took the last train to cross the border, as well as members of the religious sect who had successfully crossed the border in two batches before - the latter stayed in the white sand hilly area for two days until The last group of people led by Yuri arrived, and everyone took the magic train to Cecil City together today.
There is a newly installed ventilation system in the assembly hall, and the management of the facility also provides sufficient drinking water and food. In other words, this is considered a good treatment, but Yuri's compatriots still feel a little uneasy.
Because there is a group of heavily armed Holy Light warriors guarding all the entrances and exits of the assembly hall, and the "image" of those Holy Light warriors... is really impressive.
Half of them are giant men nearly two meters tall - this astonishing height may be partly attributed to their equally astonishing silver-white armor. These fully armed men hold huge weapons. Warhammers, metal prayer books tied with iron chains around their waists, they claim to be Cecil's Holy Light Priests, and in Yuri's view, the only connection between these people and "priests" is that they actually have the ability to I saw a lot of sacred runes - those runes were stamped on their helmets with steel seals, or hung on their armor with fire paint and scripture straps. They were more like knights killing enemies than sacred symbols. The "glory battle scars" left on one's armor later on.
And the other half of these people - thank God, at least they are women who seem to have a slightly more friendly temperament.
If these ladies are not carrying a spear of unknown power (maybe a staff or a long-handled warhammer? Or something else that can crack a person’s head?), or are they equipped with a cold-light weapon, Mechanical gloves would be even better.
Arriving at the White Sand Hills one day earlier than Yuri, but arriving at the assembly hall on the same day as everyone else, Archbishop Semler sat on a bench in the hall and couldn't help but whisper to the person next to him. Yuri said: "I miss the 'miners' dormitories' in the White Sand Hills...at least the armed security guards of the mining company there look much friendlier."
"...II don’t understand...why His Majesty the Emperor arranged for these Holy Light Priests to look after us," Yuri said with a faint worry on his face, lowering his voice, "Is it true that he has completely controlled and transformed Cecil, as the rumors say? The Holy Light Church in the territory turned them into its own 'loyal armed forces'? "
"It seems like this, He will never stand with the 'God of Holy Light'," Semler said solemnly, "And I think..."
A burst of heavy footsteps suddenly came from the side, causing Samler's unfinished words to come to an abrupt end. A two-meter-tall, fully-armed white knight came to the middle of the Eternal Sleepers and stood in front of the bench. From that moment on, everything was full of emotions. A low, muffled voice came from under Rune's helmet: "You look bad, do you need a touch of holy light or a prayer of serenity? "
As he spoke, the iron-tower-like warrior weighed the warhammer in his hand, placed the astonishingly heavy murder weapon horizontally in his hand, and began to turn a switch on its handle.< /p>
Semler’s expression suddenly changed: “No, we don’t need it! ”
He strongly doubted that the “touch of holy light” mentioned by the other party was released after being rounded.
In fact, as an archbishop-level priest of the Eternal Sleeper, he possesses The powerful force may not necessarily be weaker than these white knights who call themselves "priests", but the style of these iron giants is really weird, and the power of the holy light surging on their bodies is really powerful. What's more important is that they are still under the noses of "outside wanderers" , and every "guard" here was sent by wanderers from outside the territory. The combination of these factors made Semler and Yuri nervous.
"Understood," the tall and tall man said. The white knight said angrily without insisting, "If you need anything, feel free to ask. "
The iron tower finally left.
Both Yuri and Semler could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then smiled helplessly at each other. Yuri muttered softly: "This place... …much weirder than I originally thought. "
Wendy, who had never spoken at this time, suddenly broke her silence: "Actually, I think it's okay. I mean those armed nuns - don't you think their equipment is very beautiful? "
Yuri looked at Wendy with a strange look in his eyes: "Ms. Wendy... are you serious? "
Thankfully, this weird topic and the weird atmosphere in the assembly hall were finally broken in the next second.
"His Majesty Gawain Cecil has arrived—— ”
The attendant’s loud announcement was like the sound of nature at this moment, making both Yuri and Semler feel refreshed at the same time.
The eternal sleepers in the hall raised their heads one after another. , looking in the direction of the door, they saw that the door was open. The white knights and armed nuns guarding the door respectfully retreated to both sides, forming a neat queue to receive them, and a figure that was more burly than the white knights Appearing there, he walked into the hall with his back to the sun.
The Extraterrestrial Wanderer
p>In reality, alive, breathing.
The Eternal Sleeper priests present had a strange feeling at the same time, as if a being from the mythical world suddenly stood in front of them, but appeared in a mortal and harmless manner. The priests who were accustomed to weaving dreams and had just experienced a great turmoil were in a trance at this moment, until Gawain's voice suddenly sounded, dragging them back to reality——
"Welcome to Sisi You, future citizens of the Empire - I hope most of you will successfully obtain this status in the future."
