Chapter 962: Snow
"Young Master of the Harvey family...... How come I've never heard of it?" Merlin had a thoughtful look in her eyes.
The butler smiled smugly and said, "It's normal that you haven't heard of it, in fact, even many people in Canaan City haven't heard of it in the past few decades. It is said that this young master Snorr is the only descendant of the family, and since he was born, he has been wearing a bronze mask, which is said to be a magic object, which can prevent all spell detection, and can also ensure that the young master Snorr is not harmed. ”
"There are a lot of demonized items that protect people from harm, why use masks?" Merlin seemed a little puzzled.
"This villain knows that there are two versions, but it's hard to say whether it's true or not. ”
The housekeeper wanted to sell a pass, but seeing the impatient look on Mei Lin's face, he hurriedly said honestly: "The first version is that this young master is very ugly...... It's the kind of natural ugliness that from birth, he wears a mask, and later, for the same reason, he didn't inherit the position of head of the family, and the second version is this young master...... In fact, it was a young lady, and at that time it was to hide his true gender. At that time, it was rumored in the market that the second possibility should be higher, because the position of the head of the family does not have any requirements for appearance, but there are indeed requirements for gender...... At least in the chaotic city-state, there has never been a female head of the house. ”
Woman?
Mei Lin's heart moved, and she suddenly remembered the mage who was meditating on the sacred mountain, but her face did not show the slightest color, and she asked lightly: "This person has a grudge against the Stark family?" I heard that the Stark family in Canaan City is a first-class family in the city, and the patriarch of the Stark family is the most powerful mage in Canaan City, can this Harvey family be compared to the Stark family?"
When the housekeeper saw that the master was finally interested, he shook his spirits and began to show off what he had seen:
"My lord doesn't know, the Harvey family was also a big family in Canaan City a hundred years ago, but then it fell for some reason, when the Harvey family was strong, there were seven official mages, each of them was very powerful, that Snorl was not the best in the Harvey family, but over the years, the dead died, scattered, except for the two who were sick in bed and the two who suffered a great loss of strength after being injured, the rest of them have died for various reasons.
The villain heard an old man say that it was a disaster caused by an expedition, when the seven mages of the Harvey family were involved, but the result was heavy casualties, some said that it was the Stark family's bureau, and some people said that it was the Harvey family's infighting, the focus was on this young master Snore, I thought that this person had been missing for more than ten years and had died in a foreign land, but I didn't expect someone to see him recently, hehe, Canaan City has always been calm, this time I'm afraid it's because of this person's return, it's going to make waves again......"
Merlin stayed in Canaan City, and occasionally went to Hitam Village at night to see, the Canaan family was as she expected, and the difficult life was not in life, but in the estrangement of interpersonal relationships, but it was not yet the time to get along, and it was necessary to wait for the day when the conflict really fermented...... She really wanted to save the family from the wilderness, and as for the others, she didn't have the strength or the obligation.
Merlin stayed in the city, mainly because she was interested in the person of Snow, who belonged to the Wilderness Forest, and had an organizational backer behind him, and he himself wore such a very conspicuous mask all the year round, so he had to make Merlene, who had been looking for a suitable identity, look at him, and this person's realm level was just right, and after becoming a third-level mage, she would naturally be attracted by the Wilderness Forest, at that time, it was the best time for her to explore the secrets of the chaotic city-state and find a way home.
Regarding the collection of Snow's personal information, she did not entrust the housekeeper, firstly, the direction of such a commission is too obvious, secondly, he is a mortal after all, and some circles cannot be entered; to find information about a mage, especially a mage like Snow, who is not treated by the mainstream of Canaan City, it is still very simple, Merlin changed her appearance slightly, issued tasks in several places that specialize in this kind of trading, and began to wait for good news.
After more than two years of living in Canaan City, Merlin has not had much contact with any mage, mages are different from mortals, they are vigilant enough, and they are not so easy to deceive, even if they are magic apprentices; now two years have passed, and Merlin has a certain understanding of the chaotic city-state, whether it is the characteristics of the language, the way of doing things, the general customs, or the minimum system concept, they have a certain understanding, and at this time, it is the right opportunity to integrate.
Merlin has always been cautious, and this is the basic quality that has survived her life so far.
A few days later, several basic personal messages about Snorr were received, from different sources, but the content was much the same, basically the same as when this person was a magic apprentice fifteen years ago, and since the defeat of the Harvey family, there was a blank information about his movements, which was very much to Merlin...... On top of that, there is also information that says there is a good chance that Snoll is a woman.
Snorr once joined a small mage organization under the Wild Forest, and was later expelled from the organization due to bad conduct and excessive killing, but there seem to be other theories about the specific situation, but outsiders are unknown.
In the early years, when the Harvey family fell, Snorr was still young, what happened at that time, no one involved would say, the Harvey family accused the Stark family of setting up an assassination, and the Stark family ridiculed the Harvey family for being greedy and did not know how to advance or retreat, anyway, they were all pushed clean and the fault of others, but they had one thing in common, that is, they hated Snorr and his parents extremely much, the Stark family thought that the worst thing in the Harvey family was him, the root of all evil, and the Harvey family did not recognize his family identity, was a traitor, and was the bane.
Such a person, in Canaan City, can be described as a thing that everyone shouts at when crossing the street, Mei Lin smiled bitterly, is it really good to replace such garbage?
But it's not up to her to decide, in fact, as soon as she started posting information about Snow, someone was eyeing her!
These people's movements are very stealthy, and there are more than one group of people, the only mistake of these stalkers is that their target is the most powerful existence within the range of Canaan City at this time, and they are careful enough.
Merlin didn't delve too much into this matter, the starers are all small characters of magic apprentices, and they may not really know the truth, for Merlin, what is the truth, you can guess according to the information you get, it's either the Stark family or the Harvey family, the intentions are unknown, I'm afraid most of them don't have any good intentions.
Mei Lin didn't care who was right and who was wrong, her purpose was only to ...... What decisions she has to make.
