Chapter 1917: Questioning
At the beginning of man, nature is good.
Any person, in childhood, is a blank slate, and what kind of environment he is influenced by will become what kind of person he will become.
I don't believe that Akahavi is a person with a thin nature, and I am skeptical of the Fairy Empress's evaluation of Akahavi, but I have never been able to find an entry point.
At this moment, after listening to the Elf Empress's confession, I finally sorted out some clues.
It turns out that there are really people who are doing this!
"Did Akahavi tell you who the man who threatened him was?"
The Elven Empress shook her head: "He didn't say it, but I know very well that anything he refuses to tell me is extremely dangerous, and may even involve the survival of the entire family." ”
"Can threaten your family?" I was shocked: "Are you sure you're not kidding me?" What kind of force has such strength that it can threaten the top family of Moonlight City?! ”
The Elven Empress shook her head again.
In her eyes, I read doubt and fear.
The more you can't figure it out, the more frightening it will be, like a wooden stick hitting the water, and there is nowhere to focus.
After a long silence, I asked, "Did the four chicks survive?" ”
The Elven Empress paused and nodded with an ugly face: "They survived, but they also lost the ability to fly." ”
Although the scorching sun was scorching, inexplicably, a chill swelled up in my heart.
Needless to say, I know the reason why the four chicks lost their ability to fly, but I don't understand why the initiators of this incident would kill these five harmless birds.
Was it just to increase Akahavi's guilt?
In order to lead his kind heart to the endless abyss?
Then he doesn't need to do anything more, as long as he gets used to a luxurious life and indulges in wine day and night, even if he has a bold seedling, it will wither in the shortest possible time.
The Elven Empress seemed to see my doubts, and she was the first to speak, "Are you curious, why does that person embarrass these big four, little five birds? ”
I nodded and confessed, "I'm curious." ”
"Akahavi told me that the big four and the small five birds represent my family, the big bird represents my grandmother, the former Elven Empress Beatrice, and the four little birds represent Akahavi, me, Anarita, and Anareta."
I frowned, puzzled, "Was Anareta already born at that time?" ”
"That's what I'm curious about," the Elven Empress said, "Anareta didn't hear from this for a long time, and it stands to reason that no one could have predicted the future after such a long time......"
"No," I interrupted, looking serious, and said in a deep voice, "There are still people who can predict the future. ”
When the elven queen heard this, she was stunned at first, then her face changed, and she hesitated: "No, it's impossible, it can't be her ......."
"The more people are called impossible, the more likely they are to get close to the truth," I whispered, "The human heart is unpredictable, who knows what kind of face will be behind her kind mask?" ”
The Elven Empress pondered for a few seconds, smiled bitterly, and said, "However, with her strength and the power she controls, it is simply not enough to subvert my family. ”
I thought for a moment and said cautiously: "Don't underestimate any long-lived person, especially if this person is still admired by the world, even during the reign of the goblins, she did not dare to act rashly, but in the ten thousand years that the goblin regime was overthrown, who would dare to guarantee that she did not cultivate a force that was enough to subvert any country?" ”
Seeing that the elven queen's face was a little ugly, I also knew that my conjectures were indeed a bit appalling, not to mention anything else, just why did the high priest of the orc clan subvert the elven royal family, and what benefits could she get?
So I changed my words and said with a smile: "Of course, the above is just my imagination, frankly speaking, I am a little paranoid, I will always imagine some very ordinary situations as a danger of death, this is also the occupational disease when I was a wandering adventurer before, don't take it seriously." ”
The Elven Empress let out a noticeably nonchalant 'um' sound, but she was still affected by my suspicions, and began to wonder if the Orc High Priest was the one who pinched the bird to death.
It's just that she can't determine Akahavi's whereabouts now, otherwise she will definitely rush to the Longtan Tiger's Den in person and confront Akahavi face to face.
The topic soon ceased to be over, and the Elven Empress was in no mood to bother with the honor and disgrace of the power of the country anymore, so she sat quietly in her room until it was dusk, and then returned to the Elven Palace under the escort of the guards.
In the early morning of the next day, the palace guards waited at my door again, saying that His Majesty had invited me into the palace for a face-to-face meeting.
I said in my heart that the bad things of the country's power were endless, so I entered the palace with the guards with a bad face and met the fairy queen.
I thought that the fairy queen would reprimand me, even if she didn't reprimand, at least she had to make a call to let me restrain my behavior, or come forward to refute the 'rumors' or something.
Unexpectedly, the Fairy Empress didn't even mention a word related to the power of the country, but asked me with a gloomy face: "Did you investigate the relevant information of the island portal some time ago?" ”
"Yes," I confessed, "I can't figure out why the island is blocked, and what I don't understand is why a submarine with the blessing of ancient writing was killed." ”
The Fairy Empress Yin Owl's gaze stared at me for a long time before she said slowly: "There are many things you don't understand, but there are some things that are not a matter of whether you can understand or not, but once you touch them, it is likely to bring unpredictable disasters." ”
"I've never been afraid of disaster," I said lightly, "Adventurers are born to be adventurous." ”
"You're not afraid, but I'm afraid!" The Fairy Empress said, "Do you know that there are a few things in the Zephyr Continent that cannot be touched casually, and the endless and unfathomable ocean is one of them. ”
"That's because there was no such condition before," I argued: "There was no magic airship before, but now there is a magic airship, people can fly freely in the sky, correspondingly, there were no submarines before, even if there were submarines, they were not strong, but now they are different, the submarines are engraved with ancient characters, even a dozen adventurers dare not guarantee that they can break the defense with one blow, such strength is enough to support the submarine to dive to a depth of 10,000 meters, since the conditions have been met, why do you want to forbid it?" Could it be that Her Majesty the Wise and Martial Fairy Empress would also be afraid of the unknown? ”
"I'm also human, and of course I'm afraid of the unknown, but what scares me even more is not the unknown, but those things that are known to exist, but don't know their location yet" The fairy queen slowly stood up, picked up a stack of sorted documents on the table, handed it to me, and said, "Take a good look, and then reason with me after reading it." ”
