The aged Fivinlie XVIII sat in his seat steadily, the desk in front of him had been moved to the east window, and dozens of well-dressed nobles stood in the study...... These people can be said to be the most noble group of people in the empire except for the emperor.

A magician in a bright red magic robe stood in the middle of the study, urging a huge crystal ball that was directly nearly one meter, a soft white light erupted from the crystal ball, and gradually a piece of writing appeared on the wall in the middle of the study.

This is a report written by Hathaway and others on their trip to the Alps. All those standing in the study could see clearly.

The old emperor, who did not wear a crown, but allowed the top of his head to be exposed, squinted in his seat, his imperial scepter resting on a small lacquered gold scheme at hand.

Just now, the emperor had lost his temper because the military department had not noticed the actions of the underground dwarves for two years, and all the ministers of civil and military affairs controlled their eyes and tried not to look at the old emperor more. Almost all the high-ranking officials of the military department felt very aggrieved, and they sent the best scouts, but before they could get close to the mine, they were discovered that whether it was the stealth skills of the thieves or the stealth magic, there was nothing to hide from the defensive equipment refined by the underground dwarves. In this case, unless a large army is sent to attack, what else can be done?

As for how the Countess of Cordillera did it, they were equally strange.

The Emperor's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the throne. The low, rhythmic percussion made the hearts of all the ministers of civil and military affairs twitch for a while. It is the emperor in front of him who led the empire to remember the victory of one war after another, and it was he who cleansed the entire imperial court with iron and blood after ascending the throne. Completely bury those rotten big families.

It's a word for the word. No one in the entire empire dared to disobey the iron-blooded emperor who said a word from him! When he is angry, someone must be unlucky. It only depends on whose turn it is to be this unlucky spot today. And how big the unlucky Cheng dù is.

"There are millions of highly trained soldiers in a military department of Nuoda, and they can't even compare to a sixteen-year-old girl!"

The emperor finally spoke, and his eyes swept coldly over the faces of several bigwigs in the military department, "They are not militiamen, nor are they ordinary people!" Every year, the empire has to feed them with a large number of gold coins, is this the result?! ”

The important ministers of the military bowed their heads and bowed to the emperor. They really had nothing to say.

Fei Wenlie XVIII looked thoughtfully at these important military ministers: "It has been hundreds of years since the last battle between the underground race and the surface race ended. Since the time of my accession to the throne, the Empire's investment in the military has maintained a considerable scale, and the military expenditure has not decreased every year, but has continued to increase. If. An army that you have built with the hard-earned money of the people of the Empire. Combat effectiveness is not as good as a young girl. Then I'm really going to think about getting a new batch of women for the military department. ”

The old emperor laughed a few times and touched the white hair on his head, "Recently, unsatisfactory things have been one after another. Those natural church guys went on a rampage because of the inexplicable death of a bishop, almost combing the nobles of the empire from scratch. I am not happy, but war could break out at any time, and the empire needs the support of the church. However, on the other side of the Alps, I hope that the military department will take measures, even if the Mithril Mine cannot be owned by the Empire, I don't want it to be re-dug up by those underground reptiles, and I don't want it to be coveted by other countries......"

Listening to the roar of the emperor's majesty, those ministers gloated and looked at the military generals present, this matter is handled by their military, and now there is no result, the emperor is already furious!

"Give you a little more time, and I hope you don't live up to my trust again."

Fei Wenlie XVIII's tone finally eased, and his solemn gaze swept over the sweaty military ministers.

The old emperor had ruled the empire for decades, and he was very skillful in the use of sticks and turnips, and after sending these ministers away, the magician also retired, leaving only the old emperor and the Marquis of Abbe in the study.

"What do you think, Abbey?" Fivinlie XVIII suddenly asked.

"Of course, those people in the military department don't have any opinions about His Majesty, but for Count Bell, they don't need this taboo." Marquis Abbe said.

"That's right, the object she relies on is not those rotten families and the military department that looks forward and backward, but me!"

A gleam flashed in the eyes of the Eighteenth Emperor of the Hundred and Eighteenth Emperor, "How is that little guy doing now?" ”

The Marquis of Abbe replied: "As soon as Count Bell came to Heidelberg yesterday, he was called in by the Church to assist in the investigation. ”

"Do you think she's going to be the murderer of that Bishop Beyoncé?"

"She must not."

"Divine Magic...... Hehe, the testing magic of the punishment center is still very reliable, and I didn't believe that Count Bell could kill a bishop, but the latest news is that Count Bell is a fourth-level great magician, and it is extremely rare to be promoted to a great magician at such a young age, I'm afraid it is extremely rare in the entire empire, right? ”

"Yes. I heard that she also has good martial arts. ”

"That's right. Such a man is well suited to help me defend the Cordillera Plateau, so the Church must not be allowed to sabotage my plans. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. I will convey this to His Excellency Archbishop Stephen. ”

"Hmm."

……

The priest, who had already focused on the content of the other party's answer, did not feel that there was any loophole in her answer, and according to the information he had, Hathaway had broken through the magic level during this mission, and there seemed to be no motive at all to prompt her to kill a person she had met for the first time. This is a place of punishment, and no one can hide in front of the gods.

However, this guy was really troublesome, and the Yale priest now knew that Hathaway was quite favored by Fervenel XVIII, and that she had done quite well in the Cordillera Plateau, and was very much appreciated by His Majesty the Emperor, and had repeatedly reminded the church before this hearing. This requires a good plan, and Fivinel XVIII would never want to see anyone trouble with this guy at this time, at least for now.

After Hathaway's retelling, the Yale priest glanced at the table with his finger a few times, pondered for a moment, then raised his head and smiled and said, "Your Excellency, I will report the proceedings of this hearing to His Excellency the Archbishop truthfully. That's all for today, please go back and rest first, and we'll get back to you soon. ”

With that, he nodded to a priest next to him.

"Your Excellency, please follow me." The pastor came up and said.

Hathaway got up to say goodbye to the Yale priest, and followed the priest out of the room......

Just as Hathaway left the room, a priest who had been sitting in the corner came up to the Yale priest and handed him the transcript of the hearing.

The Yale priest took it and looked satisfied: "How's it going?" Didn't notice she was lying? ”

"My lord, no, the magic is not aware of the lie, and it is basically consistent with the situation we have. Although she could not find a witness to the time after returning to her residence, she was the only one in a similar situation. The pastor replied.

"So be it, and present the record to His Excellency the Archbishop." The Yale priest signed his name on the transcript of the hearing and returned it to the pastor, who immediately took the order.

Outside the correctional facility, Hathaway found Carey. Santos and four of his men were still waiting there. The priest said to the paladin with a blank face, "Your Excellency Santos, you can take her back. ”

"Yes." Carey. Sandos agreed, glanced at Hathaway, didn't ask more, and made a 'please' gesture to her.

Back to the original yard, Carey. Sandos and the others didn't enter the courtyard, and after seeing Hathaway enter, they turned around and left.

"Little girl, did you come back alive?" Levich that. Hawa appears next to the fence.

"Old man, why does this sound so awkward? Anyway, you've drunk my tea, so you can't hope I'm better? Hathaway rolled her eyes.

"Hehe, the place in the correctional center is easy to get in and out, I'm congratulating you." Levich that. Hawa said, climbing over the fence again.

"I'm a good person, of course I'll be fine!" Hathaway said confidently...... In fact, her heart has been hanging, as soon as she entered that room, she felt like she had entered a strange force field, if it weren't for the condensation of the spiritual heart and the maintenance of the operation of the illusion in the body, the outcome of this hearing might be completely different.

Back in the room, as expected, the old man had drunk the cup of tea before, and Hathaway ignored him and started to make a new pot.

"You're pretty pretty." Levich that. Hawa shook his head in appreciation.

"Drinking tea is an art. Drinking like yours is called cow drinking. Hathaway pursed her lips, showing little respect for the former archmagus.

"Hey, you're sarcastic that my old man is a cow?" Levich that. Hawa wasn't happy anymore.

"No sarcasm, I'm telling the truth." Hathaway was expressionless.

"You should respect the elderly, didn't your teacher teach you?" Levich that. Hawa said in a leaning manner.

"The teacher didn't teach me how to respect an old man who cheated on eating and drinking!" Hathaway sneered.

"Sharp teeth!" Levich that. Hawa grabbed a piece of snack and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Rely on the old and sell the old!" Hathaway grunted and poured him a full cup of tea.

"Well, tell me what those people asked you."

After two cups of tea, Levich. Hawa asked.

……

"You're going out soon!"

After listening to Hathaway's narration, Levich. Hawa affirmed...... (To be continued......)
