It's the Moonshine Tavern again.

The main reason why Shuke likes to talk about things here is that the wine tastes quite good.

This black fruit wine tastes like apple-flavored fat house happy water.

It's a bit like kvass, it's delicious anyway.

A lot of times, you like to go to a certain place often, and that's just such a simple reason.

Shuck is very handsome, so handsome that most women will like him.

But people's aesthetics are very strange, there are normal, of course there will be abnormal.

Stephanie sat across from Shuck, and she looked at Shuke's handsome face and felt goosebumps rise on her arms.

"I heard that His Royal Highness the new Holy Samurai of the God of Light Sect is handsome and unparalleled, and he really isn't bragging." Stephanie looked at Shuke's face and said calmly, "I heard that Your Excellency has something to ask me?" ”

Shuke was a little surprised by Stephanie's calmness, but he didn't expect that there was another woman here who was not affected by his charm attributes.

Of course, Shuk is not the kind of domineering president in romance Some kind of cold male god, the more the girl ignores herself, the more interested she becomes, and even falls in love with this girl who ignores herself.

Shuck is no such idiot.

He prefers the kind of girl who is sincere to himself.

You have to be pretty.

Why should I go and lick someone who doesn't like me!

This is Shuke's simple love emotion.

So even if Stephanie wasn't moved by his peerlessly handsome face, he didn't find it strange at all.

It's not like I've never seen such a woman.

Shu Ke nodded and said: "If it weren't for Roland, I probably wouldn't dare to ask you out, Celestia, I want to know, Celestia, what did you kill your husband two years ago?" ”

Stephanie's expression was unhappy, but then she smiled helplessly and said, "Your Excellency Shuke, are you inquiring about this matter, is it the meaning of the Temple of Light?" ”

"No, it's purely my personal question." Shuke took a sip of fruit wine and smiled politely: "This may have something to do with what I investigated." ”

Stephanie closed her eyes slightly, and then said, "It's rumored outside, but I can't get used to him looking for women outside, so I ......"

"It's not very likely." Shuke waved his hand: "According to the information we investigated, before he entered the royal family, the big horse was already looking for women everywhere, and you had already investigated him." Besides, this kind of thing is just a normal operation in the aristocracy, and the eldest princess, your personality is calm, and it is not like someone who killed her husband because of this matter. ”

With a chuckle, Stephanie sighed: "Also, in the eyes of most people, I am a person who puts interests first, and I don't do anything good without good things." Again, this news is not too classified, but your Excellency will have to pay some price if you want to get an answer from me. ”

"What do I have to give?" Shuck asked.

"I heard you have a red dragon, and I need five of her good scales."

Shuke narrowed his eyes slightly: "Margaret hasn't reached the molting stage yet. ”

"That's your business, I only need five red dragon scales, and let your dragon go to the clan to get a few."

Shu Ke nodded slightly: "You want to boil the bloodline potion?" ”

"I can't fool you." Stephanie nodded.

Shuke slightly: "I didn't know about it, but Margaret told me about it." ”

It was probably a little over a year ago that Margaret had just become Shuk's mount dragon.

At that time, although Shuke had more than a dozen gold coins per month, he still didn't have enough money to buy some special magic equipment.

Then Margaret said, scrape the dragon scales on the body and sell them, especially the dragon scales on the neck, each piece can be sold for at least five gold, which can be used to boil the dragon vein potion, and after drinking, according to the individual's physical ability, you can get some dragon bloodline ability.

What kind of ability you can get, and how strong it is, depends on luck.

But of course, Shuk didn't scrape the scales of the little dragon girl, and he was reluctant.

Shu Ke thought for a while and asked, "Celestial Princess, do you boil this potion, do you drink it yourself, or boil it for others!" ”

"Such a rare thing, of course, it is to drink it yourself."

Shuck glanced at Roland and Andonara, who were sitting not far away.

Then he asked, "How is your relationship with Roland?" ”

"It's okay, it's a friend."

Shuke nodded: "Okay, then for Roland's sake, when I go back, I will send you five dragon scales." ”

Stephanie's eyes lit up, "Thank you." Since you want to know, then I'll tell you. The reason why I killed my ex-husband was because he wanted to control me with black magic. ”

Shuke nodded: "That's damn indeed." ”

In black magic, there is a kind of spiritual magic called 'puppetry', which is different from the spell of 'humanoid creature control', which erases all memories and emotions of the person being controlled, turning him into a living dead who only knows how to obey the caster. Humanoid control, on the other hand, is to temporarily use mental power to impact the enemy's soul in a state of enlightenment, and then obey the caster's command for a short period of time. When the spell time has elapsed, the caster will come to their senses and their memory will not be affected.

The degree of viciousness of the two is not at the same level at all.

In the case of Shuk, if someone uses puppetry on himself, he will also kill the other party, this magic is too vicious.

Shuke stood up: "Thank you for telling Her Royal Highness the Celestial Princess, now I will go back first, and the things you need will be delivered to your manor in a day or two." ”

Stephanie also stood up, and said a little excitedly, "Thank you, then." ”

"You're welcome."

Shuck waved to Roland next to him, and left the Moonstone Tavern.

Stephanie walked to the table not far away and sat down side by side with Andonella, as she said to Roland, "Thank you." ”

"Why did you thank me all of a sudden?" Roland was a little puzzled.

He didn't eavesdrop on Shuck and Stephanie's chat.

"If it weren't for your sake, Shuke wouldn't have agreed to trade five dragon scales for me." Stephanie's smile was a little reluctant: "You said that you and Shuk are excellent friends, and I finally believe it now." ”

Stephanie was in a frustrated mood.

She thought that with her looks, status, identity and power, Shuke should be able to sell at least some face.

As a result, if Roland hadn't been here, Shuke would definitely not have agreed to the matter of five dragon scales.

In addition to the frustration, Stephanie was also a little unhappy.

The Children of Gold are too difficult to do.

Whether it is Roland or Shuke, they are neither humble nor arrogant.

It seems that they don't take the aristocracy and the royal family very seriously.

Temptation doesn't work, and coercion doesn't work well, after all, these sons of gold all seem to be quite strong, and they are not dead or destroyed.

Why did the goddess of life throw these things into this world?

Can't figure it out.

After drinking some fruit wine and eating some pastries at the Moonstone Tavern, Stephanie said that the things here were not good, and they were not as good as the chef's own cooking, so she might as well go back.

The three of them rode back to the manor in a carriage.

As the carriage entered the entrance to the square woods, Andonara, who had been snuggling up to Roland, sat up sharply.

She grabbed the long sword and glared slightly: "There is a smell of blood, it is very strong." ”

Roland and Andonara were on alert, and the carriage moved forward for a few more seconds before stopping.

The coachman's voice sounded outside, looking quite panicked: "Celestial princess, there are a lot of dead people in front of you, blocked in the middle of the road." ”

Hearing this, Andonara immediately jumped out of the carriage, followed by Roland.

In the center of death, at least dozens of corpses fell horizontally.

Most of them were black-robed soldiers, and in the center of these soldiers, there was a plump female corpse.

Roland had seen this woman, and she was the one who was blocking the door of Princess Celestia's manor.

Andonara jumped in, flipped the woman's body with the scabbard, and then turned over the corpse of the black soldier, and then said, "It's all a sword piercing the heart, and the death is not painful at all." The murderer's swordsmanship is quite good, and he takes either the assassination route or the stabbing fencing. ”

The world is chaotic, with occasional battles and group fights, so for the most part, melee classes prefer to use heavy weapons to open and close while dealing with several enemies.

And stabbing fencing is generally used in duels.

After all, no matter how much you stab, it's just attacking an enemy.

"The time of death of all the dead was almost the same, and there was little resistance from the dead. The strength of this murderer is estimated to be already legendary, it's really strange, someone can actually practice the ability of the stabbing technique to the legendary level? How do you practice, do you tie dummies every day? ”

Hearing the stabbing fencing, and hearing the word legend, Stephanie's expression suddenly turned pale.

Roland just saw it, and he just wanted to ask out loud.

But it was also at this time that Andonara suddenly returned to Roland's side and whispered, "We are surrounded, there are enemies. ”

A few seconds after Andonara's words fell, a group of soldiers wearing gray leather armor but wearing different colors of eagle feathers on their heads suddenly appeared from among the trees.

The leader was a middle-aged man who held a long, slender straight sword in his hand.

Seeing him, Stephanie called softly: "Biden, how are you!" ”

"Celestial princess, I didn't expect you to be so ruthless." This middle-aged man is quite handsome, with a hooked nose, long but hard cheeks, and the only drawback is that the hairline is slightly back: "His Majesty heard that Neziel came to trouble you, and I took her back by fate, but I didn't expect that you actually killed her and killed all the guards." Luckily, I happened to see you killing Miss Nexi, you killed someone's brother, and now even your sister is dead at your hands. ”

Stephanie didn't speak, but her expression grew colder.

Luo Lanwei walked up to her side and asked, "I see this situation, it seems that your father wants to deal with you." ”

Stephanie nodded slightly: "I don't understand why my father wanted to kill me, I am obviously the best candidate for the next king." ”

Just as the two were whispering, Biden said, "Celestial Princess, please come with me to the palace, and you can explain it to the king yourself." ”

Roland felt that if Stephanie really wanted to go to the palace, it would definitely be a dead end.

Stephanie took a few steps back, she didn't want to go, she could guess the consequences.

At this time, Andonara and Roland were almost in front of Stephanie at the same time.
