After hearing that she only had to wait quietly for news, Claudia. Auditore suddenly asked, "Now that the biggest crisis has been resolved, will we be able to move freely during the rest of our time in Ulrique?" ”

"It's not impossible. But you'd better wait two days. Because in the next few days, there may be some chaos in 'Ulrique'. Knight Ovaltine kindly reminded, "If you don't want to get rid of your old troubles and get into new ones, that's fine. ”

Barretla Claudia. Auditore said: "If that's the case, then let's wait for news in the merchant hall for the time being!" Anyway, it's been so long before, and it's not bad for a few days. ”

Players who have made the right decision will stay in the tranquil haven of Boreham Merchant and laugh at the scene. And on Chinese New Year's Eve, in the aristocratic district of 'Ulrik', there are four or five buildings that are lit up all night.

The bright yellow candles flickered in the firelight, and the wrought copper candlesticks were placed on the white tablecloth, casting shadows that flickered and faded with the cool breeze blowing into the room. Although a candlestick is not very well lit, there are quite a few candlesticks on the table and hanging on the wall in this room, which is enough to dispel any haze.

"How so? Did those guys get their heads smashed in the head? How dare you do such a thing in the city? "But although there is a good environment, it can't give the owner here a good mood. I saw one of the bearded men sitting on the chair frowning. His left hand, resting on the coffee table, clenched as if he were about to tear the cloth.

And on the other end of the coffee table. A noodle-headed man sitting face to face with him. After a moment of silence, he touched his chin and asked uncertainly, "Jonathan, I wonder if we're going to be tricked by them." Looking at it this way, it seems that they have been planning to do so for a long time. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to move that fast. So much so that our people don't even have a chance to stop it. ”

"But if that's the case, what good can those people of the Anlyuk family do for themselves?" The man, known as Jonathan, frowned.

Instant Noodle Tou stretched out his finger and pulled the tablecloth on the table: "If this is the case, maybe it will be good for the Anliuke family!" It's just that we don't know exactly what the benefits are. ”

Something like this happened frequently in 'Ulrique' that night. Those families who had signed an agreement with the Anliuke family before were all discussing how to deal with the aftermath at this moment. And the Ilyich family, who invited them to get up, couldn't sleep tonight.

Let's talk about the Ilyich family! He was also quite famous among the court nobles of Ulrique. Their biggest characteristic is that the family is rich in handsome men and beautiful women. However, the marriage between nobles is often a union of interests, which is not a personal matter, but a matter between two families. So it's not easy for them to climb the high branches. However, it is still possible to attract some famous families who do not have the right to inherit.

On the other hand, the life of the Anlyuko family in the Kingdom of Lucia has not been easy these years. Under the suppression of the Pastfield family, the first-tier families may be able to ignore the eyes of the royal family and only talk about interests. However, the remaining minor nobles could only begin to distance themselves from the Anlyuk family under pressure.

What's more, there has been a big explosion in the population of the previous generation of Anliuko's family, and the huge population of 3 brothers and 7 sisters can be said to make those thin-populated aristocratic family projects jealous and hateful! However, it is precisely because of this that the marriage of that generation has troubled the head of the Anliuke family at that time for a long time.

After all, the number of families in the first team is not large. And not everyone is willing to marry the Anliuko family. The remaining small nobles in Lucia were even more afraid of being involved with the Anliuke family. But if it is combined with the civilian class, it will be a great shame for the Anliuko family.

So after a few men in the family solved their lifelong events, the remaining 7 sisters became a big problem. It is in this context that the Ilyich family and such a wealthy family as the Anlyuk family (although not as good as before. But it's really a wealthy family. and it's not a decline) on the hook. In other words, the wife of the Ilyich family is the aunt of the eldest young master of the Anlyuk family. It's no wonder that the previous manager of Malkin said that the other party did not exceed the limit of non-family members within three generations of blood relatives!

However, this overseas relationship, which used to be the pride of the Ilyich family, now makes the family panic. Because they had to face not only attacks from the camp of the fiefdom lords, but also the reproaches of other court nobles as the root cause of the Ilyich family.

When the players wake up the next day, the storm in the city continues. It's just that this storm is confined to the nobility, and the poor people affected by it are not too many. The shops on both sides of the alley where the 'Flame Forge' blacksmith shop is located are the ones that really make an impact!

The staff, who were more or less aware of what had happened the day before, were all invited by the city guards to the guard post for a one-on-one and affectionate meeting. The content of the talks was naturally not known to outsiders, but everyone who was invited to the know felt the warmth of the motherland, and they all became silent about what happened that day.

Soon after, more of Ulrique's were invited by the city guards. These inviters are all over the world. The only thing in common was the meeting with the civilians who had been invited before. After enjoying the warmth of the motherland in the guard house, these guys never said anything about their experiences and the reasons for being invited, no matter who asked.

The strength of the court nobles was far inferior to that of the fiefdom lords. However, compared to the lords scattered throughout the country. With the vast majority of their forces concentrated in Ulrique, they were able to exert greater effectiveness within the royal capital. Thanks to the efforts of these 'cabinets', everything that happened that day was successfully sealed in a small area.

And after cutting off the most critical sources, those rumors among the people naturally became rootless duckweed. It didn't take long for it to become something like an urban tale or something. There is no possibility of being used by people with intentions to further set off any waves. The nobles of the court, who had completed all this, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Also relieved are the city guards who have been walking the streets and alleys of the city in the past few days. They had never experienced such an urgent and huge workload, and they were really tired and half dead. Because of the sheer number of people involved, and some of them are not easy to find. Most of the city guards also lost two taels of meat, to say the least. There are also people who fall asleep standing on their daily duty because they are overworked!

Of course, this is only for the civilians who go from sunrise to sunset. For Ulrique's higher-ups, what happened that day outside the 'Flame Forge blacksmith' shop was no secret. Therefore, although the nobles of the court have relieved the hidden danger of the national uproar, the challenge they face is far from over. Because the fiefdom lords, including the Bolim family, will never miss the opportunity to ask for a piece of meat from them. The negotiations and talks between the two sides were one after another, from the unhappy break up in the first few days, to the slight gains that followed, which were not enough for outsiders to say.

Of course, on the other hand, thanks to the attention of both sides. This time, the turmoil came and went quickly. Only 4 days had passed, and the Knight of Ovaltine had come to the door with the compensation paid by the nobles of the court. With a move of his mouth, he summoned all the blood-stained gray flowers, and placed a beautifully decorated box on the table in front of everyone.

Only on this box is the enamel process that depicts a spring forest gold. The work of this artifact is extremely exquisite. It immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. Later, I can't help but give birth to the illusion of the early morning sun shining through the leaves, accompanied by a faint intoxicating warmth that fills the surroundings.

"The craftsmanship of this box elf?" Barrett, who came to his senses, gave his own judgment.

And the Knight of Ovaltine also nodded: "That's right! Only those immortal species that have lived for almost a thousand years would have such outstanding attainments in this regard. This kind of artistic thing, although I think it is amazing. But he can't say that he is ugly. ”

"That is, this box. Is it the compensation that the nobles of the court gave us? Rielly, who had only come to her senses after hearing the conversation, asked, but her eyes did not take off the beautiful box in front of her for a moment as she asked. It's not just Riele, it's the two remaining ladies in the team, Claudia. Auditore and Clematis. Bot also stared at the 'work of art' in front of him with wide eyes.

This time the Knight of Ovaltine shook his head: "No! It's just the box that contains the compensatory item! On the mainland, only things that can be turned into strength are truly valuable, and most of the so-called works of art are just playthings when they are bored. Therefore, their value is far from comparable to that of magical wonders. ”

"Is the real compensation in this?" As he spoke, Barrett reached out and flicked the two branches on the box. The metal sliding buckle carved into a part of the forest was removed, revealing a gap in the box in front of him. Barrett, who opened it, found a pair of white leather bracers on top of the red silk cushion.

The stitching of the bracers is meticulous but not too much embellishment, except for the delicate elven runes engraved on each bracer. Barrett, who picked up his bracer and looked at it for a while, observed it for a while, and then read: "If you are attacked, you should take revenge!" ”

"This is the 'Bracer of Vengeance', a specialty of the elves!" Although I didn't come forward to watch it myself. But after hearing Barrett's elven language, Rielly and Claymatis. Bot shouted at the same time.

On one side, it is painted with the words "If you are attacked". On the other side is engraved "revenge". This is the biggest feature of the elves' 'Bracers of Vengeance', which is a derivative of the earliest squire's 'Bow of Revenge'. Now it is also a kind of strange thing that is quite legendary on the mainland.

This is different from the 'Bow of Vengeance', which shouts 'Kill the enemy' once a day when shooting. This pair of 'Bracers of Vengeance' allows the wearer to shout "Kill No Forgiveness" once a day and vow revenge on the attacker when the wearer takes health damage due to the target's attack.

As a result, the wearer will receive a +1 performance bonus to all weapon attack checks against a target who has sworn revenge, and any successful attack check will deal an additional damage equivalent to the Greatsword Slash (2-12 points). However, as with the 'Vow of Vengeance', the wearer's attack check against any enemy outside the target is -2 reduced for the duration of this effect.

These bonuses and depreciations last for 24 hours or until you kill or destroy the enemy you swear to kill while wearing the bracers, whichever comes first. If the target is killed while wearing an oath that cannot be kept, the bracers cannot be used again for the next 7 days.

"If my estimate is correct, the price of this pair of gloves in front of me is 25,000 gold coins!" Clematis who said this. Bot, those eyes suddenly became golden.

However, Barrett, who was holding the pair of bracers, finally shook his head and put it back in the box: "Knight Ovaltene, this should be the treasure of those court nobles!" ”

"That's right! This is a treasure that has been passed down by the Ilyich family for many years! Honestly, I was shocked when I saw that guy take this strange thing out. Speaking of this, the Knight of Ovaltine smiled gloatingly, "Didn't you see that man's face at that time!" The expression on his face was like that of his own father who had died......"

From the words of the Knight of Ovaltene, players learned about this pair of 'Bracers of Vengeance', but it was a treasure that the Ilyich family had acquired before it fell. Even after being exiled to the kingdom of Nohan, it was well preserved and never attacked. I didn't expect to take it out as compensation today, but you can imagine how heartbroken the member of the Ilyich family was. This is not only the reason for the value of the 'Bracer of Vengeance' itself, but also the fact that it carries the emotions of the Ilyich family for many years - it can be called a 'family heirloom'.

"The value of this strange object is indeed precious. But it doesn't come in much use for us! When the Knights of Ovaltine's tirade was over, Barrett shook his head helplessly. After all, as a player, he evaluates a strange object more from the perspective of his own use. (To be continued......)
