Chapter 238: Alarm

Although Bersington Manor is not small, it is a royal hunting garden, and in addition to some formal banquets, most people still like to go to bars and other places to have a few drinks in their leisure time, so pubs such places came into being, and Black May is one of them.

When Hathaway walked into the bar, she had to admit that it was indeed different from other bars, at least there was no pungent smell of alcohol and a dim feeling when she entered. The decoration and lighting in the bar are very emotional, and in addition to the aroma of wine, there is also a faint mint-like fragrance in the air, which does not feel abrupt at all, but makes people feel slightly uplifted.

The spacious corridor is flanked by large, brightly colored murals, and along the corridor into the bar hall, the wavy bar outlines a dynamic arc, and two waitresses are on tiptoe to place a set of crystal barware on the shelf, the graceful body curves and the glittering crystal barware form a wonderful pattern, and several drinkers in royal guard attire have their eyes wide open, and their mouths are open enough to fit into an adult's fist.

"A bunch of embarrassing guys!" Leonardo. Beirut looked at it disdainfully, but did not step forward to scold.

"It's really beautiful! It's just that these cousins are a little too exaggerated. Hathaway laughed.

Leonardo. Beirut smiled dumbly, shook his head, and sat down in a quieter place. Just now at the Marquis of Abbe, Leonardo. Beirut was just a listener, but he was clearly interested in it.

"Your Excellency, do you really intend to take in all the refugees?"

Leonardo. Beirut observed Hathaway curiously: "Hundreds of thousands. It is not a population of several thousand or tens of thousands, and if it is not properly settled, it is easy to cause turmoil. ”

It's not that he can't believe it, but he cares, although Hathaway doesn't know why the other party looks so familiar, but the kindness can still be felt. She smiled and said, "If it's just a matter of food and clothing, although there are difficulties, it can still be overcome." I'm worried about the nobles among the refugees, who may not be so easy to dismiss. ”

"You're worried about this?"

Leonardo. Beirut shook his head: "Not necessarily. How could powerful nobles stay in a refugee camp? Only a few petty nobles or down-and-out nobles will stay there. From the time when they lost their country and land. The title of nobility is just a title, at most a rich man, and there is no trouble at all. ”

"Oh."

Hathaway didn't expect this answer, but was relieved: "But there are some people who probably don't want the Cordillera to get this population." ”

Leonardo. Berut nodded, "That's right. There are quite a few people who are eyeing these populations. For example, Grand Duke Casef has repeatedly applied to His Majesty to accept some refugees. But they're all too greedy. As long as you want to be strong among the refugees, you also need the empire to spend a lot of money and food for resettlement. If they really want to fight you for refugees, they have to pay the same terms. I am afraid that this is also what they do not want...... Oh, no wonder you negotiated that condition with Marquis Abbe, because you were afraid that they would get in the way? ”

Hathaway deliberately showed a wry smile on her face, and nodded, when negotiating with the Marquis of Abe, one of them was that the royal family would send someone to assist in arranging the relocation of the refugees, and asked the officials, lords, and garrisons along the way to provide great assistance to ensure that the route was unimpeded.

"Maybe I'm a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but it's always good to take precautions in advance, otherwise it's the refugees who suffer." Hathaway said.

"You're right to do that. However, you should send a letter back at once and ask your councillor to start preparing food for the tent. Especially for grain, if the news spreads, the price of grain will definitely rise, and the action must be fast. ”

Leonardo. Beirut paused slightly, and then suddenly said: "Actually, if you delay the migration plan until next year, I think the preparations can be more thorough." ”

"But the development of the Cordillera will also slow down. These refugees have been included in my plans, and many of them will be involved in the construction of the Cordillera Territory, and I cannot afford to lose too much. Hathaway said.

"I'd like to know what His Excellency Earl's construction plans are." Leonardo. Beirut laughed. Of course he wouldn't really ask, Hathaway would never say anything like that.

"Your Excellency the Earl is welcome to take the time to come to the Cordillera Collar, and this time next year you will find that the Cordillera Collar is very different from the rumors." Hathaway confidently extended the invitation.

"Your Excellency the Count of Beirut, why do you have time to drink here today?"

There was a crisp voice and light footsteps from behind, and Hathaway spotted Leonardo. A warm smile appeared on Beirut's face: "Bishop Beyoncé, do you have time to sit here too?" ”

"yes, come out for a spin and suddenly want a drink, this one?"

"Hehe, this is Count Bell of the Cordillera Collar. Your Excellency the Earl, this is Bishop Beyoncé, the youngest bishop of the Church of Nature, and she is the Chief Bishop of the Hunting District. "Leonardo. Beirut enthusiastically introduced the two.

In fact, the moment the other party entered the bar, Hathaway had already felt the rich natural aura brought by the other party, which was a special aura that the priest could not hide, and only the mages of the Natural Church could exude this aura that was extremely compatible with nature...... But I don't know why, in this natural aura, there is a feeling that makes Hathaway extremely uncomfortable, she feels that the unicorn mark on her body is starting to get hot, although she used a secret method to cover up the fluctuation of the unicorn mark in time, but she knows that the other party may also be able to detect the abnormal fluctuation on her body.

Since the completion of the swordfight, Hathaway has found that her abilities have improved by leaps and bounds in all aspects, not only has her fighting spirit broken through the silver three rings and successfully built a fourth-level spell model, but her progress in martial arts is even more amazing.

In fact, among all the cultivation subjects, Hathaway's favorite is Yuanyang Imperial Sword Technique and Alchemy, but when she reached the Silver Three Rings, her martial arts skills also made amazing progress...... She wasn't very diligent when it came to cultivating martial arts, because she felt that she didn't have many possibilities for hand-to-hand combat, and she felt that the martial arts she had mastered had already been defeated. But the veteran doesn't think so, she has fairy blood in her body and is a natural warrior. In the veteran's opinion, magic, alchemy and the like can be regarded as deputy jobs, if she does not practice martial arts, it is a waste of blood, and every skill is useful, maybe she can't use it now, but her fate determines that the future is colorful.

If someone had talked to her about fate before she crossed over to rebirth, she would have scoffed, but now...... She somewhat believed in this kind of illusory statement, so when she practiced magic, she also practiced martial arts. But for some reason, the elves seem to be hostile to the druids of the Church of Nature, believing them to be traitors to nature, but they never explain why, only warning her not to let the people of the Church of Nature discover the secrets of the Fairy Garden, and also teaching her a method of using mental power to disguise the fluctuations of the imprint. It's just that she didn't expect to meet a bishop of the Natural Church today, and be able to induce fluctuations in the imprint.

"Hathaway, be careful, this woman should have a special artifact on her body, and it is related to the fairy garden." The voice of the veteran came to his head, and he immediately took over the disguise of the imprint.

For the Natural Church, Hathaway did not report a favorable opinion in the first place...... In the novels she has been exposed to before, the druids are described in a very positive way, but the more she becomes familiar with the world, the more she realizes that legend and reality are not the same thing. It cannot be said that there are no good people in the natural church, but this church is basically controlled by the gods, and they are keen to participate in the competition for secular power, and their property is not taxed at all, so many people take the opportunity to rely on them to avoid taxes. What's more, from the time she was just reborn, she had already formed an inextricable entanglement with this church.

Although she was very vigilant in her heart, Hathaway's face was calm, and she greeted each other with a smile, because she was wearing aristocratic clothes today, so she was also practicing aristocratic etiquette.

Beyoncé's eyes flashed with surprise when she saw Hathaway, and she felt a strange fluctuation from the countess's body...... Although the fluctuation disappeared in an instant, she felt that it was definitely not an illusion. So take this opportunity to show Hathaway the probing magic, want to know her secrets, if the other party really has any secrets, she believes that she will never be able to avoid her divine investigation.

However, to Beyoncé's disappointment, the results from the investigation were not what she expected...... Hathaway's body was full of surging elemental magic and fighting energy, but there was nothing she was looking for.

What's going on?

Is it a delusion?

No way!

Beyoncé knew that it had never let her down, and maybe the other party had some special means.

"Bishop Beyoncé, it's a pleasure to meet you." Hathaway had an elegant smile on her face, she was not worried that the other party would be able to detect her mark now, the other party's probing magic was too amazing, if the other party sent her psychological resistance, the consequences would be unpredictable, and the best thing to do now was to be confused.

After the two sides greeted each other, in Leonardo. Beirut warmly greeted them, sat down together, and then asked the waiter to come over...... Hathaway calmly held a small clip and browsed the wine list on it, but she knew that Bishop Beyoncé across from her had been watching her. (To be continued......)
