Chapter 208: A Terrifying Gift
At the time of separation, Master Dewey and several other Vechburg bigwigs arrived one after another to see me leave, which moved me very much.
When the airship had departed from the territory of Fort Vechic, I was bored and began to toss around the farewell gifts that the great men had given meβornaments full of precious stones inlaid with gold and silver, diamond brooches larger than pigeon's eggs, hairpins adorned with pearls and precious stones, and jeweled necklaces all sapphires......
It can be said that each of them is priceless, but almost none of them have practical value.
Of all my family members, with the exception of Barbara and Little Remy, who are particularly fond of these sparkling gems, everyone else only finds these things in the way, especially the maid girls, who think they get in the way of serving tea and water and grinding coffee.
He sighed helplessly and continued to rummage through the box.
The deeper I went, the more disappointed I became, sure enough, Vechiborg is a big mineral country, and even the things sent are all kinds of jewelry, can't you give me something practical?
For example, no matter how bad the enchanted equipment is, you can always give me some ordinary outer armor!
Soon, the first box was turned upside down, and there was nothing but jewelry.
So I set my sights on the second box.
When I opened the lid of the box, I was dumbfounded, it turned out to be all kinds of silk dresses, and they were still decorated with all kinds of jewels.
I was devastated.
Aside from the abundance of jewels, these clothes have no special features, and the vast majority of their styles are inferior to even the average work of an ordinary elven costume master.
...... Hey, forget it, different regions and customs are different, the elves pay more attention to beauty, while Vicky Castle pays attention to the quantity and quality of the gems set on it.
This is the generation gap.
After putting the garment back in the box, I set my sights on the third box.
"This is the last box," I swallowed, "I guess it's going to be some mess too." β
"That's not for sure~" Tai Taidao said with a wicked smile.
"Why don't you take a look at it for me?" I appealed to it for help.
"Is this the attitude you should have when asking for help?" Da Tai Dao said arrogantly: "You should bow down to me with the Five Body Throwing Dafa, so that you can express your sincerity." β
"What about the five-body throwing Dafa" I rolled my eyes: "You are a knife, not a human." β
"Caring about so many dry hairs" Da Taidao said disdainfully: "The biggest difference between me and you is that one is a steel body, the other is a physical body, in terms of soul, I may be stronger than your soul." β
"Snort, you just blow it, why didn't I hear you say a word when facing Direjit?"
"That's because you've been stunned, and you can't listen to my voice at all," the big knife retorted.
"Okay, you have no reason, I can't tell you," he said, poking the big knife into the wooden box: "Help me see what's inside." β
Da Taidao snorted dissatisfiedly, but did not continue to fight with me.
When half of the blade was completely poked into the wooden box, the voice of the big knife sounded in my head: "It's all something to eat." β
"Eat," I sighed weakly.
If it's something to eat, then forget it, Vechburg does have a good flavor snack, but no matter how delicious it is, I will get tired of eating it for a few days, and it seems that my wish has been completely disappointed.
I was about to withdraw the big sword, but I heard it in surprise: "Hey? How did they bring this stuff to you? β
"What's that?" I asked.
Da Taidao sold a pass: "You can see for yourself." β
"You want to trick me into looking at the box, and then find that my wish has been disappointed, and I fall into loss again, you can see my embarrassed appearance after being lost, right?" I pouted: "I'm not fooled!" β
"You stinky boy is really interesting, why am I lying to you? Can it be used as a hanging ornament? Or can I get better care after lying to you? Da Taidao snorted and said, "Anyway, I told you everything, as for whether to watch it or not, it's up to you." β
At the end, it added another sentence: "The dog bites Lu Dongbin, I don't know how good the knife heart is!" β
I was a little speechless, took out the big knife, put it aside, and held the wooden cover with both hands, I was apprehensive, after a few hesitations, my heart was horizontal, I gritted my teeth, my wrist flipped over, my arm was raised, and the wooden cover was lifted high.
Sure enough, as Da Taidao said, the box was stuffed with a dazzling array of flavored snacks.
However, after I looked left and right, I didn't see the second thing except snacks for a long time, and I couldn't help but be suspicious, grabbed the big knife, and asked, "What did you see?" Why did I only find something to eat? β
"Hehe" Da Taidao sneered twice: "You shouldn't just look at the surface, it seems that you are a fool as I expected." β
I was a little depressed by the ruthless contempt of the big sword, but I was powerless to refute it, so I had to honestly come to the wooden box and continue to rummage down.
Just like Dataidao said, under the dazzling snacks, there are two wooden boxes, one is a long strip and the other is square.
With doubts, I lifted the lid of the long wooden box and was shocked: "Damn! Father-in-law, why did they put this thing here? β
In the middle of the wooden box, there was a simple and unpretentious, but cold and cold thingβit was the sword of victory and oath!
Shocked, my eyelids jumped wildly, and I really didn't understand the thoughts of Master Dewey and other bigwigs.
This is an artifact!
It's something that the Fairy Queen has been thinking about, so I'll take it back with such a grand gesture, and it would be nice if I gave it directly to the Fairy Queen, but because of Emily's business, I haven't twisted that strength for the time being, and it's impossible to give this thing to her old man.
But once I let the Fairy Empress know that I have an artifact, but I don't give it to her, I will be furious and come to the door to ask for it.
When the time comes, to give or not to give?
If I give it, I may be fine, but I feel aggrieved, and she can't miss my kindness.
If you don't give it, it will inevitably be a stalemate between the two sides, and maybe you will have to leave Moonlight City with your family because of this.
How good is that?
Faced with the problems that Master Dewey and other bigwigs gave me, I fell into hard thought.
After a long time, I found the call crystal, and I decided to discuss it with Master Dewey first.
Connecting the call, on the other end of the crystal, Master Dewey took the lead and said, "How is it, Xiao Yi, was you taken aback?" β
"Well, not only was I scared, but I was almost scared to pee my pants," I said with a bitter face, "Why did you put this thing in the box?" β
"This is the result of our discussion with His Highness Alexander," Master Dewey said, "He believes that since you have the blood of the Fred family, this artifact was excavated by you and should belong to you." β
"That being said, Father-in-law, you know how much the Fairy Empress covets artifacts, if you let her know......"
