Chapter 403: Surveillance
"Fu Nia, come and talk to me." ”
Locke gestured to the couch beside him, and motioned for the elven maid who served him to sit down.
Fu Niya, who was standing aside with the fruit plate, was stunned for a moment, so she put down the things in her hand, came to the sofa opposite Locke, and sat down very restrainedly.
Fu Nia's appearance does not look very large, and her appearance may be the same age as Landla. But in fact, the elves will not change much in their physical characteristics until the stage of age change.
Ordinary elven civilians, they can also live for thousands of years, and the change in physical characteristics takes a long time to precipitate.
"My lord, do you have anything to command?" Fu Niya looked at Locke cautiously and asked tentatively. As a lady-in-waiting sent by the regent Lotherma Theron to the human nobility, Funia has a mission.
The task is nothing more than to observe the actions of this human nobleman, what kind of hobbies he has, and so on.
"I don't have any orders, I just want to talk to someone." Locke was bored and blended himself into the soft sofa behind him, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Fu Nia was also looking at Locke curiously.
As a maid, she will not take the initiative to speak without the host or guests asking questions.
The atmosphere in the room was deadlocked.
"How old are you? Hmm, or how old are you? ”
There is nothing to say, this is a skill that every person in country Z will know, and often a lively conversation begins like this.
"Of course, I know," said Locke, slightly apologetically, "that I should not have asked a lady's age directly. ”
"Oh, it's okay, sir." Fu Niya's hanging heart relaxed, if it was just this problem, there would still be no problem.
"Well, I've been ...... this year" Fu Niya was a little speechless for a moment, and she fell into deep thought.
Locke is not in a hurry, and there will always be various problems in the process of communication. However, people who live a long life may not care about their age, right?
After thinking for a while, Fu Niya said with some certainty, "I should be over 230 years old?" Yes, that's right! I remember that 30 years before the turn of the seasons, I attended the celebration of the 200-year-old elf. ”
"Wow, you elves are really the darlings of the gods, if I want to live for so long, then I must do everything I didn't do and what I wanted to do." Locke complimented, "I really envy you. ”
Fu Niya's originally smiling face became a little bitter.
Of course, this change couldn't hide from Locke, so he continued to ask while the iron was hot, "What? Isn't it? Isn't it good that you have what we humans want but can't get? ”
Fu Niya didn't speak, she just looked at the huge bear skin on the ground and was silent.
Of course, Locke will not be in a hurry, he wants to get a little news from the elves, and this time can wait.
"If it's all right, my lord," Fu Nia suddenly stood up from the couch and bowed slightly to Locke, "please let me go out for a moment to prepare today's dinner." ”
Locke also got up from the couch, he took a moment from his magic bag, took out a huge opal, and handed it to Fu Nia.
"Thank you, Fu Nia, for taking care of me."
The invincible gem did not produce any brilliance in Fu Niya's eyes, she just glanced at it, and said without any expression on her face, "This is my duty, my lord." The Lord Regent has sent me to serve you, and you don't have to do it for that. ”
Locke had to hold the opal in the palm of his hand in embarrassment, and helplessly watched the graceful Fu Nia leave the room.
"Alas, a good start, ruined by itself." Locke looked helplessly at the gem in his hand and stood in the center of the living room.
In the same city, a remnant tower that reached into the sky was emitting an inexplicable light.
A crystal ball the size of a basketball is placed in one of the tower's halls. Around them, several elves were watching intently.
Looking at their outfits, there are mages in robes, generals in armor, and rangers in capes and leather armor.
What was played in the crystal ball was the conversation between Locke and Fu Nia just now, and the part where Locke took out the gem later.
"Will there be bad consequences for us to spy on him like this? Or is there a risk of being discovered? ”
When the video ended, the crystal ball returned to its former sparkle, and a ranger in red leather armor asked with a frown.
"You're careful, General Haduron. If he had a mage from Kenrito by his side, I wouldn't have done that. The first gray-haired elven magister took over the ranger's concerns, "And we're doing this to make sure that we Quel'Salas won't be dragged into the abyss again." ”
"But if Nollis finds out about this, I think we'll need to give her an explanation."
As a former subordinate of Noris and Lotherma, Haduron Mingyi really didn't want to do this, and he had already learned from Noris about Lordaeron's current situation and the purpose of this human nobleman who came to Silvermoon City. But as the current supreme commander of the Quel'Salas armed forces, Haduron had to do the same.
The former superior Norris can no longer be completely believed, and now she likes a human being, wearing the robes of the human kingdom. Although she was once Sylvanas's lieutenant and a colleague of the current regent Lotherma Theron, both ranger generals of the kingdom.
"For Quel'Thalas's sake, I think she'll understand!" The Elven Magister flipped over the crystal ball and picked up a black magic cloth and placed it on it.
"Contrary to what I thought, this human aristocrat is not what I imagined. He was much more disciplined than I expected. Haduron didn't dwell on the previous matter, he continued, "Fu Nia was sent to him by me, and her own mission is to serve this human nobleman, but this human paladin doesn't do anything else, just talk to her every day. ”
"The same is true of Fu Niya's daily report, which is exactly what we see."
"What do you want to say?" The Magister stopped, and he turned to look at Haduron with dark blue eyes, waiting for his next step.
"There is no need for us to spy on a believer of the Light in this way." Haduron looked at the elven magister and held on to his thoughts. "It's an insult to him and an insult to us. It is neither glorious nor noble for us Quel'Salas spirits to do so. ”
"When? Our elves of Quel'Salas need this thing to keep an eye on us—" Haduron was momentarily speechless, not deciding what to say about the word.
Friend? Apparently not? What is that?
"Anyway, let's stop here. I give this order in the name of General Quel'Salas Ranger. ”
"Now!" Haduron took a deep breath and said slowly, "I trust Noris's judgment, I trust her!" I believe that this human being will not do anything harmful to us. ”
