Chapter 202: Heart-to-heart
The morning fog gradually dissipated, and the purple sun erupted with infinite light, dispelling the last trace of darkness.
Hathaway sat comfortably on the top of the slope, and across from her sat Arling. Hegel, next to which is Bruno. Will, Birling. Hegel sat on the other side, his gaze wandering over Hathaway's face from time to time...... However, at this time, her eyes were no longer contemptuous, but full of curiosity and disbelief.
A little further away from them, Alia. Fogu was dancing an iron rod to the wind, but it was she who realized the battle just now, hoping to integrate it into her martial arts.
"This is old Vergu's daughter, isn't it?" Ah Ling. Hegel asked, glancing over the side.
Now it seems that the dwarven family is indeed very related to their family, otherwise how could old Fogu let his daughter follow her?
It's just that everyone doesn't seem to want to ask this question, and she doesn't know where to start.
"Yes. She is very talented in martial arts. Hathaway replied.
"yes. This girl is very nice. ”
Ah Ling. Hegel nodded and asked with concern, "Lord Count, you weren't tired just now, were you?" ”
Hathaway stretched her muscles slightly, and then smiled: "It's nothing, it's just a warm-up, thank you Uncle Hegel for your mercy!" ”
Ah Ling. Hegel bowed slightly, whether his subordinates were merciful, he knew in his heart...... Of course, he didn't have all his strength, and Hathaway still had his hole cards, so he didn't ask much. When the two of them were fighting, they deliberately controlled it, and they didn't compete in fighting spirit and fighting skills, so the consumption was not very large.
Stared at Hathaway again, looking up and down. Ah Ling. The smile on Hegel's face faded. With a calm expression, he clapped his hands violently and shouted, "Bring the wine!" ”
Immediately behind him, an attendant handed over the wine, and another attendant also came up and took out the wrapped dishes from the package...... It's cool, but it's also very thoughtful.
"This first cup, Madame Jing!" Ah Ling. Hegel raised his glass, his face solemn, and poured the wine from the glass on the ground.
For that cheap mother, Hathaway didn't actually have much affection. But because of the consciousness of the original owner of this body. She is also very respectful...... And I also think she's pathetic. Although Eden. Bell was not the murderer, but he basically did nothing to protect his wife and daughter, for a husband and father. He has no reason to argue. So the cheap mother's vision in choosing a mate is really poor enough.
That's what I thought in my heart. But Hathaway's face also turned solemn. Solemnly raised the wine glass and spilled the wine in the glass aside.
Ah Ling. Hegel sighed slightly, and raised a second glass of wine. but he did not drink it. Instead, he looked at Hathaway with inquiring eyes: "I'm curious, my lord studied magic at the Kaba School of Magic, but where did he learn this martial art?" ”
Hathaway's eyes narrowed, and she muttered calmly, "I learned it when I was in the Academy of Magic." However, it was not the teachers of the academy who taught me. Once in the mountains, I accidentally helped an elf ranger, and he found out that I had a talent for dual cultivation of magic and martial arts, and began to teach me martial arts, which I didn't think was necessary to mention, so even my grandmother didn't know about it. ”
Ah Ling. Hegel laughed, full of relief: "The Earl is gifted and intelligent, and lives up to the expectations of his wife!" ”
Bruno. Will nodded his head in agreement, somewhat resentful, and glanced at Hathaway, as if complaining that she shouldn't even hide the old lady and herself...... In fact, this is a bit wronged, the original Hathaway is introverted, and her magical talent is average, and she doesn't know anything about martial arts, where is there anything to report?
Later, Hathaway was reborn, but at that time she was already on her way back to Mimosa Manor, and she had no way to report it...... She didn't dare to talk nonsense.
But at this time, there was no need to explain, she just smiled apologetically at the old butler.
Then I saw Ah Ling. Hegel's expression moved, and he said thoughtfully: "If you think about it carefully, it is really necessary to hide it, the Viscount has always done nothing, but the Camille family is quite tricky. These guys are now cheeky and want to be the masters of Mandy Gaza City. If the Earl's situation had been known to them earlier, it would not have been good. All kinds of dirty methods such as poisoning and assassination have been done. Before the adult's magic and martial arts are successful, it is difficult to guard. ”
Bruno. Will nodded: "Even now that the situation has gradually become clear, Lord Earl's strength is still not to be lightly exposed. ”
Ah Ling. Hegel raised his eyebrows: "Yes, unless the Earl has the absolute strength to protect himself, it is better to keep a little mysterious." ”
Drink the second glass of wine, Arling. Hegel casually threw away the wine glass, and said with a glint in his eyes: "I used to worry that your strength would not be able to control the Cordillera Territory, and the foundation that thousands of our pirate regiments had worked hard for more than ten years would collapse overnight. Now that there is no such concern, it is natural to fulfill the previous promise. The Earl asked Old Will to summon me, but I don't know what he commanded? If it's going to be on Solo. Bell and Linnan. Camille does it, and my subordinates and I are willing to be the forerunner! ”
The corners of Hathaway's lips twitched slightly, and her expression became calm: "Uncle Hegel, there is no hurry to solve these two people. In the past few months, I have to integrate the strength in my hands and gain the recognition of the people in my territory. ”
See Ah Ling. Hegel's brow furrowed, as if to speak. Hathaway smiled and shook her hand, motioning for him to be at ease.
"These two people have been operating in the Cordillera Plateau for more than 10 years, and if I solve it comprehensively at this moment, it will only exacerbate the conflict, and I can only slowly try to solve it. Besides, both families have some relationship with me, and I don't mind letting them go if they're interested. However, the safety and clearance of the sea routes were left to Uncle Hegel. ”
Ah Ling. Hegel raised his eyebrows, then laughed: "I really have no eyes!" Very good! The Earl has the intelligence of a lady, but not half of the indecision of a lady. The Camille family, all these years have been arrogant, but Mrs. has always tolerated and connived during her lifetime, and I have long been displeasing to the eye. The safety of the sea route, you can rest assured, I must let the sea surface, there is no more black smoke miasma. ”
Bi Lin. Hegel's face changed, and he glanced at his father, hoping that he would not talk too much...... On the blue ocean, among the three major pirate groups, the Pink Skull Regiment is at the bottom of the group, and the other two forces are always thinking about annexing them, let alone exterminating them, and even self-protection is a problem.
Ah Ling. Hegel ignored her, his eyes narrowed slightly: "But Lord Count, you believe me like that?" Aren't you afraid that I will disobey the yang and the yin, what will I do? ”
"Don't use suspicious people, don't use suspicious people."
Hathaway smiled faintly: "I also know the current situation of the pink skeleton, and the Jingping sea route is not an overnight thing, and I will help Uncle Hegel." ”
Help?
Bi Lin. Hegel pursed his lips, apparently disapproving.
Ah Ling. Hegel's eyes lit up again, and he was a little more appreciative: "I wonder how the Count is going to help?" ”
Hathaway smiled and took out three things from the spatial ring...... A pair of binoculars, a magic rifle, and a magic wand that looks like a toy.
She demonstrated the use of the telescope and the magic rifle, and then picked up the magic wand and pointed at a tree at random, and with a 'boom' sound, a fireball the size of a human head suddenly appeared, flew towards the big tree, and burned with a 'whew'.
"Naval warfare is dominated by fire attack, although the fire element is thin, but there is no problem in condensing a fireball." Hathaway said.
Most of the time, there are many elements in nature. However, in some environments, there will be situations where certain elements are particularly active. For example, on the sea, the water element is very active, and it is easy to cast water, wind, ice, and even thunder magic, but if you use fire magic, you can only cast some low-level spells...... Of course, under certain special conditions, it is also possible to cast advanced spells, but that is a special case.
Although fire magic is limited in its use, it is undeniable that the destructive power of fire magic cannot be underestimated, especially the destruction of ships, which is huge.
For the first two alchemy items, both father and daughter can't put it down, but for that magic wand...... Bi Lin. Hegel shook his head directly and said, "Lord Count, although the magic wand is good, we only have one magician and one magic apprentice, and it doesn't have much effect with this. ”
"Well, there's one thing I may not have explained."
Hathaway smiled faintly: "Although this magic wand can only release the fireball technique three times, the requirements for the user are very low...... You don't need to be a magician, as long as your mental power is a little stronger than that of ordinary people. ”
"What?"
Not only did Hegel's father and daughter widen their eyes, but even Bruno on the side. Will's eyes widened, but the dwarven girl didn't care...... She had two of these wands in her hands.
Warriors use alchemy products...... There's nothing strange about this, but the fact that ordinary people can use this alchemy product to unleash magic means a lot different. Ah Ling. Hegel picked up the staff and looked at it for a few moments, then beckoned one of his attendants to him, and Hathaway explained the use of the staff.
The attendant was too clever to be chosen as an attendant, and he took his magic wand and followed the method Hathaway had taught, and with a thud of fireball, a fireball flew out, and the attendant's face changed slightly...... This is characteristic of mental power consumption.
"Lord Earl, how much can this magic wand make?" Without waiting for her father to speak, Bilin. Hegel asked eagerly. (To be continued......)
