Chapter 284: Trading and Gambling
Angosari Palace, Royal Council.
Queen Rhea and the kingdom's ministers are taking care of affairs and reporting.
“…… How did the countries and churches of the South react to our initiative to summon demons? ”
"It seems that all countries are still studying the impact of this matter, so there is no big reaction for the time being, but the priest of the Church of Light God has sent an official letter." The Foreign Secretary dug out an official letter.
Queen Rhea: "Is there anything written on the letter?" ”
"They warn us to beware of being eaten by demons." The Foreign Secretary handed the letter to Queen Rhea.
The queen took the letter and glanced at it: "Hmph! Boring rhetoric. Write back to them and tell them that we have set up a special summoning magic circle, with strong protection and enchantment protection, and no demon can escape our seal. We will strive to destroy demons and contribute to the peace of the Lord Plane. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Queen Rhea: "What's next?" ”
"The next question is about policing." The prime minister looked at the documents in his hand, "There are more and more adventurers, and there are many criminals who have mixed into the ranks of adventurers......
Just as the Prime Minister was reading the document, Queen Rhea suddenly stood up!
The ministers looked up and looked at Her Majesty in amazement.
Queen Rhea left her position and walked to the window of the conference hall, looking into the distance.
Eagle Eye!
Queen Rhea's eyes are open! As if looking down, I instantly bypassed the distant space and obstacles, and directly saw the scene in the academy.
“…… Your Majesty? ”
"Reese, I'll leave the rest to you, I'll go to the academy!" Queen Rhea turned her head.
The prime minister was stunned for a moment: "Your Majesty, has something happened?" ”
"Something seems to have happened in the summoning hall." Although the palace is far from the academy district, this does not stop the view of a golden shooter.
The treasurer frowned slightly: "That hall that summoned demons?" It can't be that the summoned demon is out of control, right? ”
"It doesn't seem too serious, I'll go over and see what happens."
Queen Rhea directly threw the job to the former prime minister, and then left the palace with the guards!
Seeing the pace of Her Majesty's departure, the former Prime Minister picked up the report: "The matter of the school, just leave it to Your Majesty, let's continue." ”
As the supreme authority that assists the Queen in administering the Kingdom, the Queen's departure has not affected the functioning of the Council. Under the leadership of the Prime Minister, the ministers methodically discussed one proposal after another and issued various orders.
At the same time, in the summoning hall of the Royal Academy.
A group of trainees fell to the ground, their fate unknown. In the center of the summoning hall, a huge sealing crystal more than ten meters high towered in the magic array, and the huge crystal almost touched the roof of the summoning hall! A monster made up of countless twisted tentacles and eyes was sealed in crystal.
“…… It's huge. Green tilted his head and sighed, "This sealing crystal is bigger than the Blood Sea Demon last time." ”
This is a challenge level 40 archdemon, an existence between a legend and a demigod. Such a powerful demon can make very good magic equipment by chopping a little part on his body, but ......
This seal crystal is too big! The huge crystal that was more than ten meters high was almost touching the dome of the summoning hall, and there was no way to get through the gate if you wanted to move such a large crystal out.
Green looked around and saw that there didn't seem to be a suitable place to place such a huge sealing crystal.
At this time, the students and school workers lying on the ground in the summoning hall, the only people still standing were Green and a professor. It was a professor whom Green had never met, and he looked very young, and the Mithril thread on the cuffs of his mage robe symbolized his status as a four-ring mage.
The young professor glanced at the shadow at Green's feet with a complicated expression, and then at the students lying on the ground around him, the expression on his face a little bewildered. The young academic professor never seemed to have encountered such a situation.
"Professor, aren't you going to call someone over and help?" Green pointed to the students around him and said to the professor, "If you continue like this, you'll die." ”
The professor hesitated, took out a crystal ball, and cast a spell on it.
It didn't take long for a figure to appear in the crystal ball: "Who?" Can I help you? ”
"Professor Leigh Rollus, I'm De Kahn, there's some trouble in the summoning hall......"
"DeKahn, you're no longer my teaching assistant, you're a full-fledged professor! You should learn to solve problems on your own!" The crystal ball was heard by the voice of the Spells Professor Leigh Rollus.
“…… I know. The young professor spoke weakly.
"So, what's going on there with you?" Professor Leigh Rolles didn't hang up, but asked.
"A student summoned a great demon, and many students were affected......"
"I'll be here right away!" Professor Leillores finished and hung up the newsletter.
Hearing Professor Leigh Rollus's words, the young professor had a relieved expression.
"You used to be Professor Leigh Rollus's teaching assistant?" Green suddenly appeared next to the young professor.
"Yes, yes." The young professor seemed a little nervous.
"It's Professor Anne from the infirmary that you should be informing right now." Green gestured to the students around him, "Do you think the professor in the spell department can cure so many students?" ”
The young professor looked around and hesitated, "Okay, I'll contact right away." ”
After instructing the professor to inform the doctor, Green looked at the sealing crystal in front of him, touched his chin, and thought.
Unexpectedly, the first person to arrive at the summoning hall was not the professor of the spell department, nor Professor Anne from the infirmary, but Queen Rhea, who arrived on a flying horse!
At the door of the summoning hall, Queen Rhea jumped off the pegasus and stood at the door, her pupils shrunk slightly! Immediately afterward, Her Majesty saw Grimm standing under the sealing crystal.
"It's you again!" Queen Rhea raised her eyebrows, "I remember your name is Green Rozval, right?" ”
Queen Rhea held her longbow and slowly walked into the summoning hall.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the Queen, a hint of joy appeared on Green's face: "Your Majesty, it's a pleasure to meet you. I wonder if you're interested in buying the monster I just summoned? ”
Hearing Green's words, Queen Rhea raised her eyebrows, looked at Green, and then at the huge crystal in the hall.
"You're going to sell it?"
"Of course." Green looked up at the sealing crystal next to him, "This demon is a good thing, and he can make very good magic equipment by cutting a little part of his body." But if you want to dismember the demon, you have to break the seal...... This is not something that the average person can afford. ”
Queen Rhea looked at Green and thought for a moment.
"I'll get the Chancellor of the Exchequer to negotiate with you." Queen Rhea looked at the many students at her feet with a blank face, "By the way, there is also the question of their related medical expenses. ”
"Oh! Your Majesty, what I want, the Chancellor of the Exchequer may not be able to decide. Green licked his lips.
"Oh? What do you want? Queen Rhea raised an eyebrow and looked at Green warily.
"I want borrowing rights from the Royal Library!" Green looked at Queen Rhea with burning eyes, "I want to borrow books from the Royal Library. ”
Originally, Green planned to summon a slightly higher level demon and then exchange some small demon sealing crystals with the professor or others, but the appearance of Queen Rhea made Green see a better exchange object - those precious books and confidential materials in the royal library!
"Only those who are effectively loyal to the royal family can borrow the books in the Royal Library." Queen Rhea did not hesitate to refuse Green's request.
"Huh...... Can't you be accommodating? Green felt a little depressed, "This is a demigod-level big demon, and if you cut something on your body, it's all a treasure." ”
Queen Rhea stared at Green: "It's not impossible to be accommodating. ”
"Huh?" Green looked at Queen Rhea in surprise.
"If you can overcome my chief knight of the guard, I will grant your request to borrow the Royal Library." Queen Rhea glanced at the knight who was hurrying in.
While he was talking, Queen Rhea's knights of the Guardian finally arrived.
Looking at those guard knights, Green didn't understand what the queen in front of him meant: "I'm just an ordinary magician, it's almost impossible to defeat your guard knight leader." ”
"You can have your guards appear in your place." Queen Rhea glanced at Green's shadow, "As long as you can defeat my knight guard, then the royal library will be open for you." ”
Green looked at the queen in front of him, his eyes flickering. Could it be that the Queen is already suspicious of me?
Greene: "Is there any penalty if I or my guards lose?" ”
“…… If you lose, then this demon is mine, how? Queen Rhea looked at the sealing crystal beside her.
Green hesitated for a moment and smashed his mouth: "Okay. I took this gamble! ”
