Chapter 58: The Elven Heart (I)
(There is only one watch tonight, and three watches tomorrow.) )
The impact of life experience is less than Xia Han thought.
Except that Fiona was noticeably more fond of him, his life was the same as before. Fortunately, with the inheritance of the Elven City, the belief of the mages has become simpler, and Xia Han does not have to worry about the threat of becoming a pig for a while.
Despite this, he did not dare to relax, and running around and working every day not only maintained a stable speed of faith, but also improved his physique. Physical fitness is the key that Xia Han must pay attention to, and he also has a sequelae of infinite mana that must be dealt with.
Soon after, a small episode appeared.
Xia Han and Fiona received a job in a magic paper shop and helped make small magic paper models in the evening. The job is a bit like origami, the items made from magic paper can have some special surnames of animals, and paper cranes can fly and frogs can jump are the favorite cheap goods of the little mages.
A few days after the work was underway, Xia Han found a young man when he returned to the store to get his things back. The young man bought a batch of models and took them away in delicate packages. This made Xia Han curious, children over the age of fifteen rarely buy such small items anymore, why do young people buy so much?
He went to ask the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper replied with a little ambiguity: "He is my big customer, and the models that Limo makes every day are packed and bought by him." ”
This answer shocked Xia Han, Limo is Fiona's pseudonym, and the changing appearance of the little girl can only be said to be beautiful, but she didn't expect this to attract others - it's still an older youth.
[There are a lot of Loli controls in this world. Xia Han disliked Loliton from the bottom of his heart, and he regretted that no girl bought what he made. However, this thought flashed through him, and Xia Han did not want to provoke other women.
This is a small episode, and if it ends like this, of course, it won't cause Xia Han to care. But within a minute of his conversation with the shopkeeper, a prompt appeared in the plot system of the illustrated book.
"Ding Discovers a New Story"
"Activate the series plot: For Fiona (Part 3) to complete the plot conditions: Find the man who has a crush on the elf princess, investigate his identity, and then ask him if he likes Fiona Complete the quest reward: Unknown (appears after the series of quests is completed)"
A new quest was activated, and it turned out to be for Fiona (the third). But obviously (the second) is not yet completed, this series of tasks does not seem to be progressive?
In fact, Xia Han was not interested in such a task, and he didn't want to interfere with the Elf Princess's emotional issues. Ever since listening to Fiona's confession, he knows that it will be a tragedy for any man to fall in love with her. Wouldn't it be nice to have a love affair that is destined to have no result?
However, a task is a task, and even if it hurts others, it has to be done.
Xia Han began to investigate the identity of the young man, and it stands to reason that his current resources were more than enough to investigate an ordinary mage, but the strange thing was that the identity of the young man was like a layer of fog. Even though he helped through Autumn Night and Spring Love, he still didn't get results.
And perhaps it was because of the scarelessness that the young man never appeared again.
Xia Han had no clue, and at this moment, he discovered something strange. The story quest conditions 'Crush on the Elf Princess' and 'Do you like Fiona' caught his attention, and the quest was triggered by the youth, so Xia Han set his sights on him.
But how did he know that Limo was Fiona? If the youth likes Limo, the plot should show 'Crush on Limo' or 'Crush on Elf Princess Incarnate'
An unexpected guess slowly took shape, and Xia Han felt that the target of the task was a young man. But the person that the young man likes is Fiona, and he knows that Limo is the elf princess, and it is more likely that there is a problem with the identity of the young man.
If the youth are falsely identified, then it can also explain the reasons why the investigation cannot be investigated.
In this way, several key points come out: First, the matter of the incarnation of the elf princess is a secret, and the person who can know this secret is a strong person who can recognize the incarnation in addition to her close elf. Second, if the young man is a fake, then the real body that changes his body must also be a strong person. Third, after Xia Han's investigation, the young man disappeared, and his real intelligence ability must be very strong.
Xia Han summarized several key points, and the preferred target he came up with made him take a big breath: Qin Huang, the legendary mage lord of the City of Glory. The City of Glory is the biggest force in the Sky Temple, and Qin Huang is even more powerful and powerful, he knows that the elf princess can incarnate, discover Xia Han's investigation, and even change her appearance.
Name: Qin Huang
Lord of the City of Glory of the Sky Temple, President of the Mage Council, Legendary Mage. He never married, had two disciples, never participated in any world war, and died of illness in the year 1009 of the double lunar calendar.
The information of the illustrated book is as simple as that, if Qin Huang really likes Fiona, then this is a great secret of history. In order not to make a fatal mistake, Xia Han investigated Qin Huang very cautiously.
He soon received valuable information: two hundred years ago, when Qin Huang was still a teenager who had just entered the temple, he had told others that he would make a ring for someone he liked. There was no follow-up to this sentence, but it is still circulating today as an interesting story in the mouths of some mages.
Ring, if Qin Huang's object was turned into an elf princess two hundred years ago, then this rumor could be true. Qin Huang liked Fiona when he was young, and he once fantasized about confessing with a ring, but unfortunately he didn't succeed in the end, so he has been celibate.
Xia Han found no other candidates in the subsequent investigation, and he became more and more sure that Qin Huang was the person he was looking for.
He found Qin Huang.
"Is that the person I saw in the paper shop?" Xia Han asked him.
Qin Huang was a little surprised, but in the blink of an eye, he showed a look of amazement: "Just one side, how can you be sure of my identity and tell me, how do you know it's me?" ”
"Guess." Xia Han breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he had not found the wrong person.
"Guess? If you can guess me, there will be no more than five people in the entire Sky Temple" Qin Huang stretched out a hand and shook his head: "You are the most terrifying child I have ever seen, and in terms of wisdom alone, maybe even the first mage is inferior to you." ”
His praise didn't mean anything to Xia Han, because he relied on the loopholes in the illustrated book to find clues. But even if there were no loopholes in the illustrated book, Xia Han would begin to doubt the identity of the young man at the time of the stalemate - he would also be able to find clues to Qin Huang.
This reasoning process is like a brain teaser, which seems very simple, but ordinary people can't find the right entry point. And the process of finding the entry point is the process of wisdom. Of course, Xia Han is just smarter than ordinary people.
"What are you looking for me for?" Qin Huang asked.
Xia Han exhaled slowly and said calmly: "I want to know if you like Her Royal Highness the Princess." In order to complete the task quickly, he said the most concise and understandable words, without going around in circles.
"Aha" Qin Huang's eyes were stunned for a moment, and then he laughed: "It's really incredible, it's so simple to be exposed." ”
"Two hundred years, so long" He looked at Xia Han with some sighs, and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that the first person to ask me turned out to be a child." ”
"You're right."
Qin Huang nodded, warmth flashing in his eyes: "I like Fiona, I like it for two whole centuries. ”
His words were like a cold spring poured on Xia Han's back, and the plot task was completed.
"Did you guess that from the time I bought the magic paper?" Qin Huang continued to ask.
"Nope." Xia Han, who had completed the task, was relieved, and he smiled: "The magic paper makes me suspicious, and it is finally determined because you said two hundred years ago that you said that you want to give the ring to the person you like." ”
"I guess you're still not married because Her Royal Highness rejected you, right?"
His words stunned Qin Huang, and then the City Lord of Glory laughed.
"No," his smile was bitter, "I didn't confess to Fiona, I wanted to give her the most beautiful ring, it took me fifty years"
"And yet it's so beautiful." An obsession flashed in Qin Huang's eyes, and then quickly dimmed: "I have dedicated all my youth to that ring, and if Fiona refuses to accept it, the most precious fifty years of my life, I am afraid that it will lose its meaning." ”
No matter how long life is in fifty years, youth will always be the most precious thing. During his investigation, Xia Han learned that Qin Huang had been in the temple for forty years before he had been awarded the chairmanship, and if it had taken him fifty years to make the ring. Then he has indeed lost his youth, and it will be difficult to enjoy life as a lord.
Friends and lovers are not available to the lords of the City of Glory.
The City of Glory is the largest of the three factions, where the mages believe that magic is everything and the glory of the mages is above all else. And their lords need to keep their glory alive at all times.
"Ding Discovers a New Story"
"Activate the series of plots: For Fiona (the fourth) to complete the plot conditions: induce Qin Huang to act, let him take the ring to the city of elves to complete the quest reward: unknown (appears after the completion of the series of quests)"
A new quest is activated.
Xia Han looked at the task and sighed: "Why don't you hand it over?" ”
"You're afraid of rejection, but if you don't hand over the ring." He looked up at Qin Huang and said, "That's what fifty years of hard work wasted, right?" ”
Cowardly people always find reasons for themselves, Qin Huang is not afraid that fifty years of youth will lose its meaning, he is just afraid of being rejected by Fiona. Inducing this kind of person should hit the nail on the head, and Xia Han can also poison it when he needs a poisonous tongue
'The Heart of the Elf' - This is a famous stage play in later generations.
