Section 37 True and False Crowns II.
Xena looked at Ned and Duran suspiciously, but the two secretly communicated with an equal agreement in their hearts, and Duran didn't want Xena and Jane to know all the details of him. Jane knew that he would be troublesome enough about the Nine Swords, and if she talked to Grand Duke Bonfinch, she would have to be careful, let alone let them know Ned's true identity.
"Just let them think you're the elven envoy I summoned casually." Duran asked.
Ned immediately realized, "I won't tell them that my mother is the Flame Elf King and we have signed an equal agreement. ”
Xena said, "What do you want to say about the Deep Sea Crown, that little fat man?" ”
Ned glared at her, "I'm not a little fat man, I'm a noble flame elf!" ”
"People who hang out with Duran are certainly not a good thing." Zina sneered, "Even if you are a Flame Elven Envoy, you must be the worse one in the Elven Envoy Clan. ”
Ned was furious, he was a transcendent being of the lucky elves in the elven plane. It is said that wherever he passes, he brings luck to people. Finally, Duran held him down and asked, "Hurry up and get serious, what did you want to say just now?" ”
Ned glared at Zina before he said slowly, "Our elven envoys have the corresponding sensing ability for their respective elemental hearts. For example, our Fire Spirit can sense whether there is a Molten Heart nearby. Of course, if the elemental heart is affected by the dimensional dimension, we can't sense it. It's just that the Deep Sea Crown of the King of the Raging Sea is dyed with his own divine power, and his ability to repel space items is extremely great, so it is impossible to be packed into ordinary space storage items. ”
"If you want to find the true crown of the deep sea, try summoning a water or ice spirit who is proficient in prophecy or sensing." Ned said.
Duran nodded secretly, Ned knew that he also wanted to get the Deep Sea Crown, but Duran himself couldn't summon the elves of the water and ice races, so Ned simply told Jane and Xena about the proposal.
Because when he was at the West Mountain Pass, Duran saw with his own eyes that Xena used the elven sword in his hand to summon two water elves to help cheer him on.
"You seem to be right, but what does the Deep Sea Crown have to do with the Elemental Heart?" Jane said suddenly.
Duran and Ned looked at each other, and this accidentally slipped out. Although most people know that the Deep Sea Crown is very valuable, they don't know that the Deep Sea Crown contains a heart of ice!
At that moment, Duran could only sigh and say, "Of course it matters." When the King of the Raging Sea forged the Deep Sea Crown, he used the first Ice Heart that was naturally formed on the Fernan Continent. ”
"As long as you are a water spirit envoy who is proficient in sensing, you can sense the existence of the heart of ice within a radius of a hundred miles."
"If you don't want the real crown to be stolen, summon the Water Elves!"
Duran urged.
He was also very anxious in his heart, he had been delayed here for too long, maybe Iron Hide and Simodo had already rushed to the White Delta to wait for their convergence, if they delayed for some time, some of the plans they had made before would probably have to be revised again. What's more, due to the emergence of the Dawning Plane, the power of Duran's subordinates has increased significantly, but it has also caused a lot of trouble. He must make a trip to White Sands and pick Chloe over, or else the governance of the realm will be in a state of confusion. This back and forth is bound to consume a lot of time.
And right now, what he lacks most is time.
……
Although Xena was suspicious of Duran, she still believed Ned's proposal.
At that moment, she wielded her sword and used the magic runes on the elven sword to summon two water elven envoys.
"Melissa and Lorel, please help you two to find out if there is an Ice Heart around here." Xena politely said to the two little blue things waving their wings.
The two nodded, and just wanted to do something, but suddenly showed a panicked look.
In Zina's inexplicable gaze, the two water elves actually flew in front of Ned respectfully, bowing slightly:
"Melissa (Lorell), a citizen of the Clear Lake Domain, has seen His Highness Ned."
Not to mention Jane and Xena, even Duran couldn't help but widen his eyes.
And the little fat man who was lying comfortably on Duran's head waved his hand triumphantly, and said irrationally: "Okay, okay, what should I do." ”
"Yes! Your Highness Ned! The two elven envoys remained respectful, only slightly straightened.
The elven envoy who had just been clamoring for mixing with Duran must also be the lower class of his race, Zina's face suddenly turned red and she was stunned. Looking at this scene, her face burned hot, and she asked incredulously, "Melissa, why are you so respectful to this little fat man?" ”
Melissa said solemnly, "Miss Xena, as a member of the elven envoys, it is necessary for me to remind you not to be disrespectful to His Highness Ned. Otherwise, we will have the right to refuse your call. ”
Lorel said even more sternly: "Those who insult His Highness Ned will never get the friendship of the Elven Envoy Clan, Your Excellency, please respect yourself." ”
Zina's face suddenly turned white, and she didn't know what to say.
The two elven envoys had a stinky face at her, doing nothing but looking at Ned.
Seeing this scene, Duran laughed wildly in his heart, and couldn't help but secretly give Ned a thumbs up.
The little fat man raised his eyebrows, and his heart was very happy. It took a long time before he said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I've said that you can do whatever you have to do!" ”
Melissa and Rorel looked at each other and said to Zina, "Miss Zina, did you ask us to help find the Heart of Ice?" ”
Xena nodded in humiliation.
The two of them immediately crossed their hands in front of their chests, silently closed their eyes, and began to sense.
Ned yawned, and Xena and Jane watched nervously. Duran, on the other hand, turned his brain and began to think about the ins and outs of all this.
"When the Ather monster fell, I could be sure that the Deep Sea Crown was in the hands of the auctioneer, and it was impossible for it to be dropped." Duran pondered silently, "After that, the auctioneer was killed by Jules, and the Deep Sea Crown has never left my sight, so it is impossible for someone to change it secretly." ”
"Could it be...... Before? ”
A possible last name suddenly came to Duran's mind.
At this moment, the two water spirit envoys suddenly opened their eyes and said in unison, "Your Highness Ned, we have found the breath of the Heart of Ice!" ”
Ned suddenly came to his senses: "Where?" ”
The elven envoy pointed to the southwest and said seriously, "There, there is a human city. I could see the fire and the monsters, and a crown in the midst of the flames, and the Heart of Ice was within it. ”
The three of them looked at each other, and they all saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.
The direction pointed by the two elven envoys is the Great Pudding City!
The crown of the deep sea, still in the city at this time! (To be continued.) )
