Chapter 148: The Scarlet Curtain (4)
Azeroth, Stormwind. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The Scarlet Crusader undercover agent, codenamed Cow, has recently received a strange order.
It was a purchase list of almost all the metal blocks and engineering parts he knew and didn't recognize, as well as several of the most sensitive items.
It's a little difficult to get started, but it's not impossible for him to run his own network - the last few lines of the list are the ones that make him wonder.
"Buy as many medicinal herbs of all kinds as possible and semi-finished products of all kinds in the trading house...... Pay special attention and remember to buy a few cases of juice of various flavors...... Then mail it directly back to the headquarters? ”
The cows were puzzled, those cheap materials were not even worth the postage, what was the Ministry planning?
At the end of the list, there was an address for him to go to store ninety-nine in the Stormwind trading area, and make the transaction directly through the funds and accounts from the store.
"Inexplicable......"
Still, the cow put on his full Stormwind guard armor and headed out on his mission.
……
After nearly a month of recuperation, Mia's body has regained full health.
Although she longed for the comfortable environment and the abundance of food, she never wanted to be cheeky enough to accept favors...... She knew it was time for her to leave.
"Where's that druid? Why help me? ”
Kana, the priest in charge of treating and caring for Mia, seems to have made a big mistake not long ago, and has recently been grounded in the infirmary by the majestic looking female knight for examination...... But she had been muttering something, and she was clearly not concentrating on repentance.
Mia, who wants to say goodbye, wants to use the word 'taken care of' that she learned elsewhere, but she doesn't have the confidence to spell it correctly.
"Thank you...... I...... I have to go. ”
She stammered her farewell in a small voice that even she couldn't hear.
Kana was still muttering something absentmindedly, and Mia didn't get her attention three times in a row.
As a last resort, she had to use all her courage and strength to amplify her voice...... There is still a faint mosquito sound.
Although she didn't hear what she was saying, Kana realized that someone was talking to her, and she made a perfunctory mummmm
Mia, who had been pardoned, turned around and left, and the pressure from nowhere made her clench her fists nervously.
Entering the hall, she avoided the crowds of worshippers, walked as unobtrusively as possible against the corners, and walked towards the church door as if she were running away.
The moment she stepped out of the church and onto the street, all the stress vanished, and she froze as if she had been evacuated.
I heard that the place that could be called home had been razed to the ground by fire, not to mention that no one had visited her for so long, so where should she go?
"Hey, you."
Just as she was standing in the middle of the road in a daze, someone seemed to be calling her not far away. She followed the sound and recognized that the owner of the voice was the lady of the church.
She held a parasol, carried a basket, yawned - Mia rarely saw her during the day, and each time she acted like she hadn't slept enough.
Mia stiffened for a moment before pointing cautiously at herself, a questioning expression.
"That's you...... Whew...... Come here. ”
The church lady yawned in confirmation with a beautiful long pink hair, and Mia walked over stiffly.
The closer she got to the other person, the more nervous she became, and she was afraid of being harassed or bullied...... Subconsciously tidying up the corners of her clothes that could no longer be smoother, Mia stood very restrained two meters away.
"Take it." Loria stepped forward directly and stuffed the parasol to Mia, and then yawned while carefully rubbing her free hand around her eyes, muttering to herself: "I'm still not used to it after so long." ”
With that, Loria looked at Mia silently, as if she was remembering something.
The long silence made Mia uncomfortable, and she didn't know where to look, so she had to put her head down and stare at her shoes to endure the hard time.
"You look much better." After a while, Loria finally spoke: "I happen to have a job cleaning the laboratory here, if you are interested, you can find me in the basement of the church." ”
Seeing that Mia didn't answer for a long time, Loria sighed and yawned and walked away.
Umbrella......
Until Loria walked into the church with a frown in the sun, Mia, who leaned forward and made an umbrella gesture, could not stop her.
……
Paplov, who was listening to the report, clenched his fists, and he tried to knock the wine glass on the table to the ground, but finally held back.
He had practiced a lot of how to deal with the emissaries of the two great powers in the Skyrim, but the rebels who called themselves Stormcloaks sent small armies across the snowy border without even sending an emissary.
After that, he was extremely rude to change a letter several times, and handed it directly to the guards guarding the city gate by a humble and unknown person - without an audience, without even prior notice, nothing.
"Tyrone, read." Paplov, who was sitting at the head of the hall, motioned to the old butler beside him to read the letter.
After reading a piece of nonsense from the script, the old butler paused slightly, and after removing some aggressive sentences, briefly repeated the contents of the letter.
"The Stormcloak asks you to publicly serve Ufric as king, to provide them with the food and supplies they need, and to provide an army for them to deploy against the Empire-controlled Morning Star City...... and personally went to Dugu City for pilgrimage...... Meet Ufrik. ”
Pavlov, who had listened quietly, did not become as angry as the guards had expected, but laughed and raised his glass to drink the wine from it.
"The villain has a will!" He laughed and shouted, "It seems that the monarch killer still has doubts and counts on me...... The Great Paplov will be afraid of senseless threats. ”
"Exactly." The old butler said kindly, and then asked tentatively: "...... the empire over there?"
"Leave them alone." Pavlov interrupted the old butler, and continued: "We recovered faster than expected, and with our snowy fortified cities and ample food reserves were enough to hold off any side's attack for a long time. The damn Kingkiller and the Emperor were worried about each other, and as long as I didn't take sides, they wouldn't dare risk being caught in the flanking of the other side to attack Xueman. ”
Let them eat dogs, Paplov thought to himself, after a long period of neutrality between the two powers, he believed that he would be able to survive the crisis this time.
When the king was killed by the rebel leader, Pavlov no longer had a king on his head, and he was no longer willing to be subservient to anyone.
Raising his full glass again, he shouted, "To the Gentiles who believe in the Light." ”
