-Hutton-Marr-

"What? The person in front of him was actually Skadi, the king of Huttonmar? Is this Her Majesty the Queen, who is above all people? How is it a little different from what you imagined? ”

Looking at the gentle and smiling Skadi in front of him, Long Ming and the others were so surprised that they couldn't be overwhelmed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoIn their imagination, a queen is not like this, she should be full of majesty, her demeanor should exude a kind of imperial majesty, and she often takes care of state affairs, shouldn't she age quickly? Will it be like a sister next door? Looks like a normal person.

Long Ming and the others were even more surprised than when they met the apostle, and they were so surprised that they could stuff an egg in their mouths, no! It was two eggs, and only Moli didn't know what was going on.

"Are you really Queen Skady?" Ling Feng had already reined in his previous attitude of contempt for Skadi, and he approached Skadi to confirm her true identity.

But Ling Feng was only one step closer to Scardy, and Boken pulled out the long sword behind his back and put it in front of Ling Feng, looking at Boken's serious expression, there was no doubt that if Ling Feng took a step closer, Boken's long sword would pierce his heart without any deviation.

Skady was still smiling, and didn't stop Boken, it seems that she didn't fully trust Long Ming and the others.

"Why are you here, Your Majesty?" Long Ming asked at Skadi.

Lulith and the others, who had the same question, looked at Scardy at the same time, waiting for her answer.

"Can't I come to see you?" Scardy suddenly laughed like a little girl, looking harmless to humans and animals.

"If you want to see us, why don't you just summon us to the palace? Why meet in this shabby place? Taylor asked curiously.

"Maybe there's a reason why we have to meet here?" Long Ming said.

"That's right! Long Ming is right, it is the reason why he has to meet here! Skadi looked at Long Ming appreciatively, not expecting Long Ming to guess this step.

"What is the reason for that?" Fist asked curiously, actually let Her Majesty the Queen move, this reason will not be so simple.

"Have you heard of the Dross Empire?" Scardy didn't answer Long Ming's question directly, but asked them instead.

The Dros Empire, which is now the first empire on the continent of Arad, the power of the empire is very grand, it has the power to influence the fate of the continent, and even Belmar, who has a vast territory, can only call itself a principality. After all, the strength of a country does not depend on the country, but on how strong its military power is, and the power of the Dross Empire is second to none. The Dros Empire, which has the most powerful military power, naturally breeds its ambitions, and it wants to one day rule the Arad continent, so that every place in the Arad continent will be planted with the flag of the Dross Empire. Speaking of which, the Leyt they met in Sky City before Long Ming was a member of the royal family of the Dross Empire.

Long Ming and the others nodded, still looking at Skady suspiciously, not knowing why Skady suddenly mentioned the Dross Empire.

"The ambitions of the Dross Empire are known to everyone in the Arad continent, and now they have pointed the finger at the Duchy of Belma!"

What the? Skadi's words exploded in Long Ming's heads like thunder, if someone else said it, Long Ming and they might not believe it, but this was said by the mouth of the queen of the Principality of Belmar, Long Ming They had to believe it!

"The Dross Empire actually targeted the Duchy of Belmar? Does that mean that a war between two countries is about to break out? Ling Feng asked in shock, but now that the Duchy of Belmar is still peaceful, there is no momentum of war breaking out at all! Could this be the rumored calm before the storm?

"Why did the Empire suddenly point the finger at the Duchy of Belmar?" Lulith asked, although the two countries do not interact with each other in normal times, but they will not break out into war without saying a word!

"I don't know the specific reason, in fact, the situation is not severe enough to break out into war, war is not such a child's play, if war breaks out, there will be a lot of chain reactions, the Dellos Empire and the Principality of Belma can't predict what the butterfly effect will bring to each other's countries, plus now there are many changes on the Arad continent, so we won't start a war easily!" Queen Skady said, talking about national affairs, Skady is no longer as relaxed as before, and a cloud of sadness has condensed on his brow.

"What the hell is going on here?" Lulith asked.

"Although there will be no war between the Duchy of Belmar and the Principality of Bellma for the time being, the Principality of Dels has begun to think that the Principality of Belmar has infiltrated a lot of spies, and this arrogant guy has openly sent troops to the Principality of Belmar in the name of diplomacy!" Queen Skady said angrily.

"Could it be that Barn is what you call a diplomatic envoy?" Long Ming asked curiously.

"That's right! Barn is a nobleman of the Delos Empire, and this guy is not a good thing, and he is bent on climbing up! Willing to become a lackey of the empire is really insulting to his name as a sword saint! Boken said angrily, as if this guy had suffered at the hands of Barn.

"Diplomacy? What exactly was the diplomatic purpose of the Dross Empire? Taylor asked.

"They say that an alchemist from their Imperial Alchemist's Guild has fled to our principality and wants us to hand him over! But he didn't say who that person was, he just kept searching for it in the Duchy of Belma! Skady angrily hammered her hand on the table, she was angry at those who were persecuted by the Dross Empire.

An alchemist who escaped from the Dross Empire? Could she be talking about Norton? If it's really Norton, what is the reason why the Dross Empire is looking for Norton?

But Long Ming and they won't betray Norton easily, they haven't fully trusted Queen Skady, they won't do this kind of betrayal of their companions!

"Looking for an alchemist? Then why did they arrest my master? Lulith asked.

"Because they suspect that Master Feng Zhen has hidden that alchemist!" Scardy said lightly, and his eyes were close to Luris, wanting to get some information from Lulis's eyes, if Feng Zhen really hid the alchemist, then Lulis, who was Feng Zhen's proud disciple, would definitely know that Scardy wanted to get such information from Lulis's eyes.

But as if he had guessed Skadi's intentions, Long Ming suddenly took a step in the direction where Lulith was, making Skadi's eyes fall on him.

"Wouldn't it be too rash to arrest Master Feng Zhen for just this reason? Or is it that the Duchy of Belmar was afraid of the Dros Empire and had to be at its mercy? Long Ming said provocatively, now he must let Skadi lock his eyes on himself, if the person the Dross Empire is looking for is Norton, then Long Ming and they must protect Norton well, no matter what the purpose of the Dross Empire is, protecting partners is the first thing Long Ming and they consider.

"Presumptuous! How dare you talk to Your Majesty like this! Boken was about to draw his sword and take Long Ming down.

However, Boken was blocked by Skadi before he could make a move.

"It's okay! Long Ming is just worried about Mr. Feng Zhen! Skady said magnanimously.

"But......" Boken wanted to teach Long Ming a lesson, but after seeing Skadi's disgusted gaze, he put away his weapon.

"It's dangerous!" Long Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Boken's breath was really not weak at all, much stronger than Long Ming and them, plus the black-clothed people guarding outside, if they really fought, Long Ming and they really had no chance of winning.

At the same time, Long Ming and the others couldn't help but be a little curious, what was the reason why Queen Skadi was able to endure Long Ming's rudeness again and again.

"Actually, it is not our good intentions to capture Feng Zhen, Master Feng Zhen used to be the head of my principality, but considering the harmonious relationship with the Dross Empire, we have to do this! Please forgive us! ”

Skadi actually apologized to Long Ming and them, which really flattered Long Ming and them.

"Then when will Master Feng Zhen be released?" Ling Feng asked.

"That's what I'm talking to you about, and I'm actually asking you for something!" Skady said as he glanced at each of them at Long Ming.

The Queen's request? So what the hell could it be? Long Ming and the others were puzzled.
