"What is this?" Martil took the locket, curious.

Anything else, at least Moriarty was a veritable genius alchemist who was already known in Kent. In particular, the alchemy props produced by his Earth Studio have been the most popular luxury goods for the Kent aristocracy for several years, and the Ensberg family has also made a lot of money by relying on the exclusive agency rights in the county. And now, the gift handed by him must be the best of the best. Even some of the aristocratic parents who were seated around them stopped their meals and watched when they saw Moriarty deliver the small jewelry box to Salk Pearl.

"Let's open it and take a look." Moriarty smiled.

"Yes." Glancing at the other again, Matiel pursed her lips and slowly opened the lid.

"Ahh It's..."

A royal blue light lit up, although not dazzling, but clear and boundless, as if the blue sea had descended. What's even more amazing is that in the glowing blue brilliance, there seem to be crystal snowflakes blooming and disillusioning, accompanied by a slight chill, making people feel like they are holding a miniature ice world.

"Morty, did you do this?"

Mathil took the blue light out of the box and slowly unfolded it, revealing a necklace that was unusually beautiful. The source of the blue color is the pendant that looks like a hexagonal snow crystal, and in the center of the snow crystal is a teardrop-shaped sapphire.

"Yes." Moriarty nodded.

"What's its name?" Holding the necklace in her hand, Martiel's fingers rubbed gently against the sapphire, and her tentacles were cold.

"Edelweiss." Moriarty looked at the slender jade fingers that were in no way inferior to gemstones. He whispered, "It's also a magic necklace." ”

"Magic necklace?" Salk Mingzhu raised his eyes and glared at the other party: "I'm not a professional, but I can't use this." ”

"It's okay." Moriarty smiled and shook his head: "This is a passive alchemy item that only works when you are attacked. ”

"Oh? Passive magic items? ”

At this time, the old man, who had been silent, couldn't help but whisper in surprise. Similar to mind-triggered items, passive alchemy artifacts are one of the few rare items that can be used by people other than mage professionals. And unlike the trigger type preferred by the warrior class, the latter is more suitable for ordinary people with less initiative.

"Starts when I'm attacked? What kind of magic is inside? The corners of Martiel's mouth were slightly upturned, as if she was hiding infinite joy, but she refused to reveal too much.

"The first-level spell 'Magic Shield' and the third-level spell 'Ice Aura'." Moriarty said softly.

"What!?"

But when he heard the other party's words, Viscount Salk was so excited that he almost jumped up. "Magic Shield" is okay to say. It's just a first-order spell; But the other party said that the necklace also contained the third-level spell "Ice Aura"! What is this concept!? If you can really make a magic item that contains a level 3 spell. Moriarty can be said to be at the pinnacle of mid-level alchemists. With this kind of strength, even Bracada, who is full of mages, can definitely become the top power in any city-state after the Grand Arcanist and the City Lord.

"Actually, the main credit for being able to seal the 'Ice Aura' lies in the 'Sea Tear Stone'." Seems to know what the old man is surprised by. Moriarty explained directly: "I just inlaid a not-so-complicated alchemy array on it. Then pre-save the 'Ice Aura' to it. If it is excitation after that. Then you'll have to re-deposit a new spell. On the other hand, the first-level spell 'Magic Shield' built into the snow crystal can be automatically replenished every three days, so there is no shortage of it. ”

"I see... But if it can seal a third-level spell, this 'Sea Tear Stone' can be said to be a treasure. "The old man is also a knowledgeable person. Immediately got to the point.

"Hehe, that's how you can match the pearl of Salk."

For the viscount's admiration, Moriarty just laughed. And the "Sea Tears Stone" is also from the trophies in the "Operation North Wind", which has been refined by high-level goblin mages before, so you only need to directly process and build an alchemy array after getting your hands on it. However, the snow crystal in the outer circle is carefully carved out by Moriarty "stroke by stroke", and then the sea tear stone is used as a traction opportunity, so that it can be regarded as an attack and a defense, complementing each other.

And if it is sold, the value of this "Edelweiss" will probably have to be exchanged for a complete knight's collar.

"Then you can put it on for me." At this time, Matiel suddenly said softly.

"Okay."

After a slight pause, Moriarty stood up happily and walked around the table behind the other party. Then, taking the "edelweiss", Moriarty lowered it gently. At the same time, Salk Pearl coiled up her long blonde hair, revealing a slender neck like a swan. And from a man's point of view, the two clusters of white porcelain are as delicate and soft as eye-catching, and there is a deep ravine between them that can make it difficult to pull out the gaze. Although he doesn't think he is in a hurry, Moriarty has to admit that he is attracted by the beauty in front of him at this moment.

"Is it pretty?"

As if in mind, Mathil raised her head sideways like a proud swan and chuckled in a very low voice in the ear of Moriati, who was close to her shoulder.

"It's beautiful."

Without denying it, Moriarty gave a generous compliment, and then gently placed a sapphire necklace on Salk's bright smile.

"Wow!"

"Look, it's beautiful!"

"Oh my God, magic necklace, I'd love to have it too!"

At the far end of the dining table, countless aristocratic ladies and ladies witnessed this fragrant scene, and they all marveled with envy or jealousy. Whether it is the beauty of "Edelweiss" or the powerful magic of its content, it is enough to fall in love with the most discerning lady. It's just that tonight's heroine is only Salk Pearl, and the dazzling magic necklace can only shine around her neck.

After all, it was wartime, and there was no after-show such as a ball after the dinner. The ladies and ladies left in a whispering and laughing as they continued to bask in the powerful mages and the precious magic necklaces, while the men gathered in another chamber where Viscount Salk and Moriarty explained to the nobles the contents of the Quadripartite Alliance.

Of course, as in the case at Atburg, since the bosses of the Salk faction had nodded their heads in approval, the other lords and knights were largely supportive. However, bargaining over some details is still inevitable, and Hadro's appearance not only surprised the parents of the families, but also practically competed with the nobles for every inch of land. On the contrary, Moriarty, who was the protagonist, sat a little leisurely and drank black tea comfortably, chatting with Lord Viscount.

Because the Quadripartite alliance involves many issues, and each point involves more or less interests. At the same time, because there are enough chips to be left for the subsequent "McLiren" trip, it is extremely time-consuming and even ridiculous to discuss the details of the alliance.

After another hour or so of sitting, Viscount Salk departed to inspect the walls. Nighttime is the peak of another wave of demonic attacks, so you need to be extra careful. At the same time, Moriarty returned to the suite he had arranged for him to rest.

"Moty, these guys are really wordy, they are thinking about the future loot before the fight starts, it's too boring!"

After standing behind Moriarty for most of the day, he had long been impatient with the hypocrisy and philistines of the Elasia nobles, and was finally able to get out, Guderian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Similarly, the three-flower elf on the other side is also sweating profusely. The aristocratic ladies and ladies in the banquet hall just now were also very interested in the "beautiful" Bruno, if it weren't for the fact that his master Moriarty was too big to provoke, I am afraid that a few "rippling" beauties would have come forward to hook up with one or two.

Because he hadn't eaten for a day, Moriarty directly ordered the full-time servants guarding the door to bring a large portion of food. However, when attending, the silverbearded dwarves disciplined themselves from drinking, and only roasted meat and bread with white water. Bruno, on the other hand, just ate some light vegetable salad and put down his knife and fork.

"It is expected to return tomorrow morning and arrive in Rheinberg around noon." Sitting in front of a window, Moriarty looked at the little fireballs that lit up from time to time in the darkness in the distance, and said slowly: "But you need to be especially careful when driving away from the airspace of Fort Windsor, now that the Great Cloud has appeared in front of the Demon Legion several times, the other party may have countermeasures." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency." This sentence was obviously said to the three-flower elf who had the heavy responsibility of long-range attack and defense, and Bruno immediately agreed.

"Moti, I said I came here today, and that noble lady didn't invite you to chat or something? Rest assured, even if you don't return home at night, I will be absolutely tight-lipped and will never let Haiyuna know. After eating and drinking, Guderian began to spank habitually again, and immediately joked to Moriarty.

"You..."

Moriarty was about to laugh and curse the dwarf when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Moriarty shook his head at Guderian and said directly.

Immediately, a maid opened the door respectfully and walked in: "Your Excellency Moriarty, Miss Martir invites you to go to the flower room to enjoy the roses at night." ”

"Poof!"

Before Moriarty could answer, the silver-bearded dwarf on the side gasped directly, and his big red face was full of smiles, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud, so he could only endure it.

"Okay, you lead the way."

After glaring at the dwarf heavily, Moriarty slowly stood up and motioned for the servant to lead the way.

"Your Excellency, please follow me."

The maid bowed deeply again before turning and walking out of the room.

And when the door of the suite finally closed heavily, a loud laugh immediately came faintly from behind the thick door. As for Moriarty, he could only pretend not to hear, and slowly followed the maid who was already waiting in front of him. (To be continued......)
