From arriving in Huntington for the first time on Thursday, to Sunday evening led by the revived wild wolf, he saw the mysterious lake on the edge of the Great Swamp. It only took Shade three days to get close to the legend. the truth.
But he can't spend all his time and energy in Huntington, Tobesk on Monday, there are still many things waiting for him to deal with.
At 6:30 on Monday morning, when Xia De woke up on time, he felt as if he was pressed by a stone on his chest.
"Ghost press?"
It is also said in this era.
When I opened my eyes, I realized that it was not a ghost pressing the bed, but a cat pressing the bed. Miya, who was waiting for breakfast, was standing on the quilt on Xia De's chest at the moment, looking at him with piercing eyes.
"What do you think the cat is thinking?"
Xia De asked in his heart, grabbed the cat with a smile and sat up from the bed. With a slight movement of the fingers, the curtains automatically opened with a clang.
The voice in the ear chuckled:
【Probably dissatisfied that your life is too lazy. 】
"Lazy? In order to prevent the [Lazy] spirit rune from adversely affecting my spirit and character, I didn't even associate any thaumaturgy with this spirit rune. And this cat is more lazy than any human I know. Be strong."
The cat was pinched by the back of the neck, looked at Xia De pitifully, his big eyes showed a very human grievance, his white beard trembled slightly, his small nose moved with his breathing, and he almost wanted to eat written on his face .
A new week also means that Xia De can take out new gifts from the [God's gift box]. When he went downstairs to fetch newspapers and milk, he moved the metal box from the basement upstairs.
When I was reading the news about Princess Marguerite Anjou's visit in the newspaper at the dining table, I was still thinking about what kind of weird items I would bring out this week. But no matter how weird the weekly gift is, Xia De is still willing to try it. This kind of "lottery" activity where the result is completely unpredictable, but there may be valuable items, is one of the few hobbies of outsiders in this world. In fact, thinking about it carefully, he has developed a lot of hobbies in this world, including but not limited to Rhodes and Miniya.
Before finishing breakfast this time, Xia De, who couldn't restrain his curiosity, stretched out his hand and pushed open the lid of the gift box.
When I reached into the box, I didn't touch the item for the first time, which means that this time it is not a big item. Continue to **** down until you touch something with a cold metal touch at the bottom of the box:
"Ordinary items."
Despite making such a judgment, Xia De still remains interested. I took that thing out of the gift box, only to find that it was a small silver box inlaid with broken diamonds on the surface. The box has a shield-like appearance and is most likely a sterling silver jewelry box in terms of weight, color and feel.
After opening the box, there was indeed a beautiful emerald lying in the red velvet lining. The gemstone was in the shape of a goose egg. Although it was only half the size of a fingernail, it was not very valuable, but the surface was polished with a sense of layering. The sunlight streaming in through the window makes the gems shine, which is absolutely precious jewelry.
"The emerald in a silver jewelry box is actually an item, and the box and the gem are counted as one."
Thinking curiously, Xia De twisted out the gem and observed it carefully. Mia, who was licking the goat's milk with her head down, leaned over with her head stretched out, her eyes widened and her pink nose sniffed twice, then she immediately lost interest.
"The quality of the gemstones is very good. Even if it is a ceremony that requires strict ritual materials, it will not reject jewelry of this level."
He put the small emerald back into the small silver shield-shaped box, thought for a while, turned the box to the back, stretched out his fingers, and the light of the silver moon appeared from the fingertips:
"Presented by Hamilton of Rejard."
While spelling, he used the silver moon on his fingertips to engrave this line of words, which is the ability he will have before he really mastered [Moonlight Great Sword]:
"I'm going to attend that princess's wedding on Tuesday. It shouldn't be a shame to take this as a gift."
He admired the letters he had carved, but took a deep breath dissatisfied, and erased that line of text with [Breath of Time]:
"The words are a bit too ugly"
In the end, I just engraved the initials of my name to show my identity, so it looks much more beautiful.
After confirming this week's gift, Xia De read the newspaper while eating breakfast. After finishing breakfast, I went to read today's three letters.
One was sent by Priest Augustus. The Church of Dawn will distribute church gifts to the core believers in early winter, so that Xia De remembers to pick it up. This year, a small bar of soap engraved with the holy emblem, an oil painting of a church without a watch, and some seasonal vegetables were distributed.
Although these gifts were considered insignificant by the nobles, this tradition of seasonal gifts to the core faithful was quite important.
The second letter was from Dorothy. Mona Cavendish and Randolph Asperger's wedding took place in the city's Peace Church on Tuesday afternoon, tomorrow afternoon. According to Rezia's request, Xia De invited Dorothy as a female companion, and Dorothy wrote to inform Xia De of the time to meet her tomorrow.
As for the third letter, it was affixed with stamps of the lowest face value, and the mailing address was a street in the north of the city, without a more specific house number. Xia De knew it was a letter from "Grey Gloves" just by seeing the color of the ink on it.
"Is it finally here?"
The expired potion of appearance that I got from Priest Augustus last time was not used up yet. After pouring the potion on the letter paper that said "same as before", the dense numbers immediately appeared.
From the study, I found "The Queen and Her Lovers", "The Silver Knight" and "The Supplements of the Western Front" to crack the code, and got a complete letter.
There is not much content, and it really is about Princess Marguerite Anjou. The letter asked the "grey-headed eagle" to secretly protect the safety of the princess during her visit, but under no circumstances should she reveal her identity.
Since the news of the "Difference Engine" information was delivered during the period of the players in the big city, the "Grey Eagle" should have fallen into silence, and once again "sinked" waiting to be awakened. In less than three months, the order was received again, presumably it was also the result of Gray Gloves' internal struggle and the consideration of the royal family.
Although the "Grey Eagle" was ordered not to reveal his identity, he was given a set of special passwords that could reveal his identity to Princess Margaret at a critical moment.
There are no specific requirements for this task, but it has been emphasized many times, so that the Grey-headed Eagle should not show up easily. It seems that no matter what, the big shots in Carson Rick all acquiesce that the value of the "Grey Eagle" is extremely high, and the Gray Eagle must not be sacrificed unless it is absolutely necessary.
"The political struggle in Kasenlik is not simple either."
Although Shad has lived in Delarion for a long time, and can only be regarded as "Grey Eagle II", he can also hear thunder from this letter.
In fact, even without this letter, he would have protected Princess Margaret. On the one hand, MI6 must not allow the princess to have an accident in Delarion. On the other hand, this can be regarded as repaying the dead Detective Sparrow.
Although he intends to go to Huntington to try his luck again today, but because of the mission of MI6 and Gray Gloves, Shade is going to join in the fun to welcome the arrival of Princess Margaret and her party. For this reason, he had already agreed with Miss Galina that he would go with her, which would save him the time of queuing up to enter the venue.
Although it departed from Huntington on a steam airship, the airship did not land directly in the city, but landed in the eastern part of Tobesk City, eight miles away from the city (about 129k away from Walch Town, and then The delegation arrived at Tobysk Railway Station by special train.
The train journey is actually less than half an hour, so the exact arrival time depends on when the airship can land safely. Fortunately, in the past few days, Tobesk and its surrounding areas have not experienced too much rain or snow, so there is no need to worry about delays in the arrival of the airship due to the weather.
Tobesk Railway Station is located in the north of the city, and Miss Galina's manor is located in the southern outskirts of the city. Therefore, the big witch arrived at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square with her maids around 8 o'clock, intending to wait for the train here The specific time of arrival of the message.
The reason why they didn't go to the Yodel Palace to wait was because of the meeting between King Larus III and the Princess of the Southland, as well as the special lunch and dinner prepared for the visiting group, and it was very busy there now.
According to diplomatic standards and general rules, members of the Anjou royal family need to be greeted in person by members of the Cavendish royal family. Among them, if it is a visit of the duke, queen or even king with real power and fiefdom~www.mtlnovel.com~ Larousse III needs to greet him in person, but this time it is only the princess, so according to the usual practice, Queen Diana will lead the visit Not by her own eldest prince and several princesses went to the train station to welcome them.
At this time, a group of people who were preparing to leave from Yodel Palace should also be waiting for news. Miss Galina's convoy will join them when the people from the Yodel Palace set off first:
"Although I am also a member of the Cavendish family, my nephew has actually considered it many times whether I should appear on this occasion. After all, a powerful duke like me went to welcome the princess of the Anjou family. It seems a little high."
The red-haired witch sitting on the sofa said that she was in good spirits early in the morning:
"Afterwards, it was decided that I should be allowed to participate. MI6 got some information. This time the princess came here for more than just a visit. She brought a letter from the current king of the United Kingdom of Kasenlik, Lion Lion" The other party seems to be interested in negotiating on the balance of the number of troops. So in order to show goodwill, my nephew wrote to ask me to go to Tobesk Railway Station today."
"If he hadn't written, would you have gone?"
Xia De asked curiously, Tifa was instructing the maids to prepare hot tea, and they didn't know how long they would have to wait.
"Of course I will. As a member of the council, if I don't welcome Sylvia to Tobesk, what will the other witches in the council think of me?"
