Chapter 478: The Old Man and Henry

In the master bedroom of the castle, a strange smell permeated the room where sunlight did not let in.

On the large gold-studded bed, an old man with a pale face and a gorgeous robe lay on it, covered with a gorgeous velvet quilt.

From time to time, there was a heart-rending cough.

It took a while to subside, and then there was a suppressed silence.

I don't know how long it took, but an old and weak voice suddenly came from the bed.

"Henry, have you found the prince?"

There is majesty and anticipation in these words.

"Your Majesty, not yet. I searched the whole country, but found no sign of the prince. Next to the bed, there stood a tall middle-aged man with a bitter face, wearing the clothes of a guard, clutching his heart, and his voice was low and with irrepressible pain, and said.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......" The old man on the bed couldn't help coughing in pain when he heard this.

Henry's guard stepped forward with the paste, but was stopped by the old man, who had to fall back and stand straight in place.

After a while, the old man's coughing voice slowly became lower.

"Henry, I'm running out of time!" The old man's thin and spotted arms were bruised, but his eyes became bright, and he looked at the loyal guard next to him, and said.

"Your Majesty, do you want to ask for help from the church......" Henry asked.

"Hehehe...... cough cough cough ...... WhewW...... cough cough cough ...... Help from the church? If the Light is blemish, then the Church is the shadow of the Light! The old man said with a sneer as he said that he would be dragged and hanged by the church outside, accompanied by a violent cough.

Henry stood silent.

After a pause, the old man rested for a while before he eased up, and his tone became a little calmer, and said.

"Henry, I know my own situation! You have to hurry up and get the prince back. The enemy won't let us have a good time. When the old man said this, he was so tired that he gasped.

"Your Majesty, you should have a good rest!" Henry said distressedly.

"When I'm dead, I can get some rest, but not now, Henry, I have to hold on until he comes back!" The old man gritted his teeth and said in a firm tone.

Henry's heart became even more painful, he knelt down on one knee, and said with a resolute face, "Your Majesty, you let go, no matter what the price is, I will definitely find the prince, even if I make a deal with the devil and sell my soul!" ”

"Go ahead......" the old man closed his eyes and waved his hand weakly.

Henry respectfully stepped back, left the room, and softly closed the door.

At the gate, Henry covered his chest, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead, "Your Royal Highness, where are you?" Your faithful servant, thinking of you! ”

"May the Holy Light shine upon you, and may the Holy Light guide my direction!"

Henry's face crumpled, and he pressed his palms over his chest harder.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Every time he came to the fairy tale world, William always had a sense of time misrepresentation.

Especially this time, he stayed in the real world for several years before crossing over again.

This sense of misconception not only did not become alleviated with the growth of his strength, but became stronger and stronger.

The passage of time between the two worlds is relatively stagnant, for him the past is a long time ago, and for the fairy tale world, everything is just beginning.

The kingdom of Isaac, where William left last time, is located in the north-west of the middle of the fairy tale continent.

This time, the Kalachakra Hourglass took him directly to the small principality in the north-southwestern part of the continent, the Duchy of Salz.

The Duchy of Salz is a mountainous country, with 63 per cent of the country's territory covered by forests, and only more than 30 per cent of the territory being plains or arable hills, where most of the population is concentrated.

Salzburg is the country's capital, the center of power and administration, and the direct domain of the Hasma family.

The territory of the Duchy of Salz was surrounded by several kingdoms, impermeable on all sides, and was a completely landlocked state.

Several kingdoms have the intention to annex the Duchy of Salz and expand their own power, so the international situation of the Duchy of Salz has not been good, and it can be said that it is in a difficult situation, but fortunately, the patriarch of the Hasma family this year, that is, the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Salz, Hasma XI, is an old and cunning man, with a city in his heart, and a long-sleeved guy who is good at dancing, so he can keep the Duchy of Salz and not be annexed.

The Duchy of Salz has few plains and mountains, and there are few places suitable for farming, so more people have to find a living in other ways.

Craftsmanship and commerce have also been set off.

Up to now, especially after Hasma XI came to power, many "mercantil" policies have been issued, the Duchy of Salz has been transformed into a commercial state, Hasma Archduke is sometimes said to be a merchant duke in the aristocratic circles of the mainland, and Salzburg has also become a famous city of crafts and commerce on the mainland, as famous as Bremen, the capital of music.

William listened to the information gathered by the magic mirror as he followed the crowd into Salzburg.

Compared to the capital of the Kingdom of Isaac, Salzburg is a third smaller, but it doesn't feel much less crowded.

Craft workshops can be found everywhere, and the owners are pulling their throats to recruit apprentices.

From time to time, there are shouting hawkers walking by, selling all kinds of food and knick-knacks.

The atmosphere was much warmer than many of the cities William had seen on the mainland, and there was a feeling of going back to his old life, strolling through the shopping streets, eating skewers, and listening to the energetic music that came from nowhere.

William was a little stupid for a while, and walked with the flow of people, strolling through the streets and alleys of the city.

Until the evening.

The sun is setting.

Salzburg was shrouded in darkness.

The flow of people on the streets has also become so thin that there is none.

William's figure suddenly appeared at the highest point in the city, in the castle of the Hasma family, on the spire of a bell tower.

The wind blew the ruyi cloak behind William's back, making a rustling sound.

William's eyes calmly looked down at the city that shimmered sporadically at night, with a starry sky and a bright moon overhead.

Kalachakra Hourglass wouldn't have brought him to this place for no reason, unless it thought that this place had a treasure that William wanted, or that it had a deep relationship with it.

He has been in this country for a few days, and he has even learned the language of this country, but he has not found any clues.

In desperation, he had to come here.

In most fairy tales, there is a princess or a prince, or both.

If there is a so-called treasure in this country, then it must be in the royal capital.

William thought about it, and used one of his bloodline marks, the Treasure Bloodline Mark.
