Moonlight Island.

A small and elaborate palace.

In the main hall of the palace, Count Eliot stands in front of the floor-to-ceiling wooden windows. He looked out the window at the palace shrouded in colorful light not far away. Outside the palace, on the left side of the wooden path leading to the palace gate, there are three people at a large square wooden table. At this time, he used his divine power, his divine sense sensed every move of the three of them, and he also performed the Thousand Miles Hearing Technique, listening to their conversation--- the colorful dragon ball bracelet on the wrist of the old Count Esmerda, because of the distance of the wooden table, it was not able to block the Thousand Miles Hearing Technique.

This square wooden table is twice as wide as a person's arms outstretched. This distance is beyond the scope of the Colorful Dragon Ball's Blocking Thousand Miles of Hearing - The distance of the Colorful Dragon Balls blocking the Thousand Miles of Hearing is very interesting, and the range it can block is a circular area. This area is centered on the body of the person carrying the colorful dragon ball, and within the circular area with the diameter of the length of its arms outstretched.

The top of a square wooden table is covered with a criss-crossing grid. This wooden table is actually a chessboard.

Grand Duke Ivan and Old Count Esmeida sat face to face. The two were playing chess.

The chess played by the two is called a twelve-in-a-row. The chess pieces are flat and round, similar to the chess pieces on the earth, except that the colors are not black and white, but red and green. The first to connect twelve pieces of the same color into a straight line wins. The gameplay is similar to backgammon, but in backgammon, the first to connect five pieces of the same color in a straight line wins. Because of the unpredictable chess game, the twelve sons are a small game that the people of the Protoss like to play.

At the moment, Grand Duke Ivan is holding the red chess, and the old Count Esmeida is holding the green chess.

Count Alaric was standing beside Grand Duke Ivan.

The seat where Grand Duke Ivan sat was facing the palace where Count Eliot was.

Count Eliot shook a glass of black wine in his hand and drank it down. His expression was as usual, except for a hint of anxiety in his silver eyes.

During the few days on Moonlight Island, Grand Duke Ivan would play chess on the chessboard when he was not by Wen Ying's side--- and the reason why he played chess outside the palace was simple, because Wen Ying slept in the dormitory of the palace behind him. And the person who accompanied the chess was either the old Count Esmeida or the Count of Alaric. After the Holy War, the Grand Duke of Ivan was not only cruel in temperament, but also had a bad temper, and the people of the Protoss, that is, the people of the Raphael, respected and stayed away from the Grand Duke Ivan. The people of the Protoss who came with him were naturally very respectful to Grand Duke Ivan, but except for Count Eliot, no one took the initiative to speak and play chess with Grand Duke Ivan. Once, Count Eliot once opened his mouth and wanted to accompany Grand Duke Ivan to play chess, but he was refused, and naturally he would not speak a second time.

At this time, this period of time often arises. It's just that today, Count Eliot is very anxious. According to Grand Duke Quirrell's order, once the sacred sound of the Golden Shrine in Yule Island sounded, he had to do one thing - to confirm whether Wen Ying was on Moonlight Island. He knew the reason for the order, and he knew what Archduke Quirrell really wanted to know.

Early in the morning, almost nine days old, Grand Duke Ivan, dressed in a dark purple robe, walked out of the palace gate and walked to the chess table. And the old Count Esmeida and the Count of Alaric were already standing by.

The three of them said a few words from time to time, and there was no useful information. It's nothing more than the old Count Esmeida joking at Grand Duke Ivan, don't be too happy with Wen Ying, lest Wen Ying be unbearable, or Wen Ying's clumsy appearance when kicking a flying ball. Of course, these words were not dared to be said by Count Ararila, and only the witness to the marriage of Grand Duke Ivan and Wen Ying, the old count of Esmeida, dared to speak.

According to the information provided by Grand Duke Quirrell, coupled with careful observation on Moonlight Island, Count Elliot also found that Wen Ying's body temperature would suddenly rise, and the symptoms were similar to those of body heat, a common disease among the human race. Body heat can cause the body temperature of Terrans to rise, and if not cured in time, it will burn out the sick person's brain and turn them into idiots. The golden dragon blood can restore Wen Ying's body temperature to normal, but the golden dragon blood will make Wen Ying very sleepy, so in the eyes of Count Elliot, in the past few days, Wen Ying is either playing or sleeping.

"Count, is what Old Count Esmeida said true?" Quinland, with a curious tone: "Grand Duke Ivan really loves the Grand Duchess so much, has he dismissed all the demon attendants of the Black Castle from the Black Castle in the past few days?" ”

Qumran stood close behind Count Eliot. Around his neck, he wore a silver chain, on which there were six dragon balls, one colorful dragon ball, and five five-colored dragon balls. And on the little finger of Count Eliot's right hand, he carried a silver ring with a colorful dragon ball inlaid with it.

Qumran knew about his conversation with Count Eliot, and Grand Duke Ivan would not hear it. Unable to hear Count Eliot's answer, Quinlan couldn't help but continue: "Doesn't Grand Duke Ivan also make an oath of loyalty to Wen Ying in the future, doesn't it mean that Grand Duke will not fall in love with other Protoss women in the future, and will never have an heir?" ”

"Quinlan, be quiet." Count Eliot's tone became stern, with a hint of impatience.

In the past few days, Count Elliot has been sensing his consciousness all the time, and there are no strange energy fluctuations on Moonlight Island. Especially since Wen Ying stepped into the palace last night, Count Elliot has been sensing the movements around the palace and even the entire Moonlight Island, and knows everyone who arrives or leaves Moonlight Island - everything, there is nothing out of the ordinary. Everything indicates that Wen Ying is in the palace.

The message from the Void Arrow sent by Grand Duke Quirrell was that the sacred voice of the Golden Sanctuary rang out at the exact hour of nine days—according to the records of the Divine Magic Codex, the sacred sound of the Sanctuary would last for one hundred and ninety-nine days from the first sound to the last sound, that is, just over three days. And now, it has been a little past the twelve days of noon, and the divine sound is about to stop.

However, Count Eliot knew that there was no way he could break into the palace when the Grand Duke Ivan, the old Count of Esmeida, and the Count of Alaric were all outside the palace. And Grand Duke Quirrell's order was that Wen Ying must be seen with his own eyes.

"There's only half a day left." Count Eliot muttered to himself.

"Half a day left?" Quinlan said: "Half a day? What are you talking about, Count? ”

Suddenly, Grand Duke Ivan got up.

The old Count Esmeida also got up and laughed coquettishly: "Why, the little lady of the Grand Duke has woken up?" ”

"Wen Ying slept too late last night--- Grand Duke Ivan paused and said, "She is like a silver dragon who is greedy for sleep, and she can't sleep enough." However, it was already past noon, and Wen Ying said last night that she must be woken up at noon, and she was sorry to make the Odyssey King wait too long for lunch. A doting smile appeared at the corner of Grand Duke Ivan's mouth.

"With the Grand Duchess, Grand Duke Ivan is really different from before." The old Count Esmerda had a playful smile on his face, and his voice was delicate: "Excuse me? It's really interesting to --- the language of the earthlings. ”

"The two of you go to the main hall first, and then tell the Odyssey King, Wen Ying and I will be there later." Ivan was fair and walked towards the palace gate.

Count Elliot looked solemn, his tone was stern with a hint of tenderness, but he answered Qumrand's question differently, and said, "Qumrand, no matter what happens later, you can't leave the palace, you know?" Never leave the palace! ”
