Miss Chapter Seven's plan
The young lady took the lead in flying to the agreed place, and both Shutru and Vic looked at the beautiful city in front of them with fresh eyes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
St. Erdia City is the only entrance to the Heavenly Realm, so it is also one of the major countries in import and export trade, and there are more than a dozen teleportation points large and small in the city for passers-by to choose from, teleporting to the four gates of east, west, south, and north, as well as important places such as the Wizard's Guild, the Adventurer's Guild, and the Central Trade Plaza. The church that the young lady and her party went to was a branch of the Church of Light here, and there was a magic teleportation device in it that could directly teleport to the church headquarters in the central city of the Heavenly Realm. When you get there, you may be able to find out more or less about the Elven King. But the headquarters is not accessible to anyone, and despite the help of Archangel Peter, the young lady is still a little worried.
The industrious merchants had already started a busy day, and the streets where everyone flew were full of dragons carrying goods, coming out of the warehouse where Pengying was parked in an orderly manner. The young lady explained that although the Celestial Realm mainly relied on the Pengying to transport goods, because they were all too large to cause a big riot if they went to the streets together, they would be asked to unload the goods into the warehouse first, and then the smaller Earth Dragons would divide the goods. Some merchants who do small business will partner up to use a Peng Ying to buy goods, and each Peng Ying may have dozens of merchants' goods on it, so the task of escorting Peng Ying's transportation in the Adventurer's Guild in the Celestial Realm is the most and best to earn, and magicians with a little strength will come to the Celestial Realm to receive this kind of task.
As soon as the words fell, a large shadow appeared above them, and Vic looked up to see that it was a huge golden eagle flying over their heads. The other Pengying is nothing compared to this one. Its armor-like feathers covered its body, and even from this distance, you could feel the hurricane when it flapped its wings, and it flew smoothly into the distance like a moving castle.
Xiutru looked at the huge Pengying in surprise and turned his head and asked the young lady, "Where did such a big Pengying go?" ”
"This kind of golden-winged Peng Eagle is only available in the Holy City, and it is said that the goods on it are all treasures, and the weakest escort also needs the ability of a magic master, even if there is a forbidden spell master in the heavenly realm, it is not unusual."
"Spell Forbidden Master?!"
"The light element of the Heavenly Realm is abundant, so it is easier to cultivate here than the Demon Realm, and naturally there are more forbidden spell masters than the Demon Realm." The young lady flapped her wings and began to slow down, then turned back and continued, "Okay, here we are." ”
The four of them landed smoothly on the platform, and Xiutru put away the ring, so that he had time to take a closer look at the big church in front of him.
The platform they landed on was actually the garden in front of the church, and the merchants had to go to the church to register every time they brought in new goods, so even early in the morning, there were many people gathered in the garden in front of the church.
The church's iconic fountain features a goddess with a dove in her hand and a wreath on her head, surrounded by six trumpeting cherubs, the mist rising from the water making them look as if they were flying in the clouds.
Just as Shotrou was concentrating on admiring the statue's trails, a caravan kid suddenly crashed into his arms and startled him. The child was wearing a black cloak and a hat, and before Xiutru could see whether it was a man or a woman, the child got up from the ground, patted his buttocks and ran away, leaving Xiutru standing in place with a bewildered expression.
"The agreed place is under this fountain, and the time is about right, someone should come to pick us up immediately."
As soon as the young lady finished speaking, a brown-haired man in a white robe walked out of the church not far away, and the golden badge symbolizing the archangel shone on his chest. He stopped at the door for a moment, and when he saw the young lady and the others, he walked quickly in the direction of the fountain.
"Hello, is this Ms. Victoria?" He politely saluted the young lady and asked.
"Yes."
"I'm sorry, I'm Peter, a friend of Lady Relna, and I'm so sorry to have you waiting."
"It's fine." The young lady looked at the mature and steady man in front of her, and she couldn't connect him with what he was like when he was a child. "We've just arrived, and we're embarrassed to disturb you until we handle official business."
"Ms. Victoria is so polite, let's go in first, there are too many people here."
"Just call me Charlotte, these two are my deacons Guviy and Shotru, and this is Vic." The young lady introduced the group to Peter as she walked.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, my name is Peter, and I serve as the archangel of the Church of Light, and Lady Relna is my mentor."
"Nice to meet you."
After greeting them, Peter led them to a parlor on the second floor of the church. The interior of the church is relatively simple, but it is not difficult to see the history of the church from the roof carved with reliefs and the load-bearing columns with carved statues. Peter said that the church, though not the largest, is the oldest outside of the headquarters. The library here has collected countless out-of-print collections and precious magic books, and the young lady who listens to it is itching.
"Tea or coffee?" When everyone was seated, Peter opened the door to the pantry set up in the parlor and turned back to ask.
"I'll have coffee." The young lady uncharacteristically asked for coffee. "I'm still a little sleepy all the way."
"Then I'll have coffee too."
"Me too."
Seeing that everyone had made a statement, Guviy stood up and entered the pantry with Peter: "Mr. Peter, I'll come." ”
"It's okay, it's all guests from afar."
"As a deacon, this is how it should be, what do you drink, I'll come."
"Then I'm sorry for you, I want coffee too. To be honest, I don't feel confident in the coffee I brew. Peter smiled a little embarrassedly, pointed to the cupboard above and said, "The tea set and everything are here, and the coffee beans should be in the refrigerator, if there is any problem, call me." ”
"Yes, Mr. Peter."
Peter patted Gulvi on the shoulder, turned and walked out of the pantry, and sat down at the table. "Miss Charlotte is such a wonderful deacon."
"Thanks, Gouwiy will be glad to hear it."
Shutru looked at the young lady, then turned to look at Peter, suddenly stood up, blushed, and said, "I...... I'm going to help too......" and ran into the pantry with a "whoosh".
Peter laughed when he saw this: "Hahaha, what a lovely deacon, it seems that you have to worry a lot every day, right?" ”
"Not really...... We weren't exhausted on the way here...... Do you think anyone would want to eat cannibal flowers? He was chased around by a group of cannibals......"
"That's terrible."
"Yes, even Lerna said he was a troublemaker, and the other day I stayed with her, and when I was serving tea, I actually broke the flower pot. This...... How much of a bend do you have to walk to hit the flower pot in the corner! ”
"Oh my God, it's good that Relna has a good temper."
"yes. Recently, she has a black cat, and she likes to bask in the sun on the windowsill. He actually ...... Turned back into the prototype to scare her cat! I'm really convinced......"
"Hahahahaha, he's a dog god, right? Inugami was notoriously mischievous when he was a child. ”
The young lady rubbed her angry temples and sighed. Seeing that it was Guviyi who came out with coffee, and Xiutru was only holding a can of candy, he was relieved. Peter, who looked at him with a smile on his face, made Xiutru feel uncomfortable, and he asked Mademoiselle and Vic for help with an inquiring look, only to get a sigh from both of them in unison and the movement of rubbing their temples.
After taking a sip of the Guvie-brewed coffee, the young lady nodded in satisfaction, and the topic finally got on track.
"Rayna has already told me that you want to inquire about the whereabouts of the Elven King, right?"
"Yes, we urgently need the life of an ice elf now, and without the help of the Elf King, her life may be in danger." The young lady glanced at Vic and motioned for him to continue.
"I am a half-elf priest, my mother is a light elf, and my father is human. My mother followed my father to live in the demon world without hesitation, and died after giving birth to me. Soon after, my father found a human woman and remarried. I have an older brother and a younger brother, and they are all human, so I am a stranger who is left out in the cold. My father didn't tell me how my mother died, but like the Ice Elves, she was affected by the thin mana of the Demon Realm and eventually disappeared as a light element. When I learned that the Ice Elf was in a similar condition to my mother, I was determined to save her. I know that I am too weak to be alone, and I know that this request is very selfish, and now there is hope in front of me, although it is slim, I will not give up, so, Archangel Peter, please wish us a hand. ”
Vic's words were so sincere that he tried to hold back tears and wet his eyes, and stood up and bowed deeply to Peter.
Peter was already moved by his attitude, and when he saw him bowing to himself, he hurriedly stood up and held his shoulders to make him straighten up: "How could I not help in matters of human life, and besides, I will not neglect the matter that Lerna personally asked." There should be no problem in bringing you to the headquarters, the problem is how to find out the information of the Elven King. ”
"I've thought about that." The young lady sat them both down before she began, "Vic is the only one who wants to go with you to the headquarters." ”
"It's just me?!" Vic pointed at himself and said with a look of surprise.
"Yes, it's just you. In a few days, it will be the Tianyi Council, you will study hard with Peter in the next few days, and then you will play his assistant and infiltrate the council, and if you find anything abnormal, report it to me in time. ”
"What is the Celestial Wing Council?"
"The Heavenly Wing Council is a quarterly report meeting of the Angel Clan, mainly to report on the expenditure and income in the past few months, and some miscellaneous things." Peter explained to Vic: "It used to be Lerna's attendance at the council, and I was my attendant, and since she has retired, all the tedious business has naturally fallen on my shoulders. ”
"Then don't you consider taking an apprentice?" The young lady looked at Peter, who was smiling wryly, and asked.
"I want to too, but I don't have time to teach my disciples. But it would have been much better if Vic had been, I remember you were the High Priest of Pakvia City? ”
"Yes, but Pakvia is a small country, so there are not so many things to deal with, and the city lord is a very diligent person, and he has basically dealt with everything that needs to be handled."
"Don't be modest, when I was at the priesthood center in Salman City, I heard the chief priest compliment a trainee high priest named Vic. He's a very strict old man, and he sent you to Pakvia City because he thought you could be on your own, and wanted you to gain some experience before transferring you back to the Priesthood Center. He intended to cultivate you, but he didn't expect to be caught by me first. ”
"That's what he said?"
"Don't believe you, go back and ask yourself? Actually, I already knew about you, but I didn't expect to officially meet in such a way this time. ”
"It's a coincidence."
"Maybe I'm meant to help you, I'm surprised when Rainer mentions it."
"Since Peter you have known Vic for a long time, then I will also put it bluntly, there should be a large amount of money in the Celestial Wings Council this time, which has not yet been revealed to you, but several other archangels may have discovered this problem, and may even try to cover it up." The young lady's original lazy expression was completely gone, she straightened her back, and an unspoken momentum emanated from her, which couldn't help but make several people present begin to become serious.
"You mean?" Peter asked, confused, not understanding what the empty funds had to do with the Elven King's disappearance.
"Blood Crystal."
Peter listened in shock as Miss explained her conjecture about the disappearance of the Elven King with Rayna a few days ago.
"As long as it involves blood demon crystals, it's taboo, but your conjecture is not unreasonable."
"We don't know at all whether the other archangels of the Celestial Wing Council are friends or foes, and if any of them are involved in the Blood Demon Crystal, there will definitely be some clues. So this time, I hope you two can get your hands on the money flow files of the other archangels in the council. ”
Peter pondered for a moment and nodded, "I see, although it is difficult, it is not completely impossible. ”
"You and Vic have been thinking about planning and planning these days. Guviyi and Shutru, you are in charge of finding out the news in the bars and the night market. ”
"Okay, what about you, young lady?"
"Me...... I'm going to the sub-god realm. ”
"Divine Realm?!"
"Hmm...... I had a few old friends and I went to paraphrase them. ”
"An old friend in the divine realm?! Miss Charlotte, who are you ......?"
"Oh, didn't I tell you?" The young lady stood up, pulled at the hem of her skirt, and the smile on her face was half as good as the sunshine: "In Lower Charlotte Victoria, it is a true ancestor. ”
