Chapter 1569: About Demon Canyon
The rest of the party went back to the hotel to move freely, and Jia Zhengjin was dragged back to the palace by Prince Julian, and came to the king again.
"Julian?" said the king, happily talking to his son, whom he had not seen for more than twenty years, and kept asking him about what he had been through in the past twenty years. When the eldest prince came to the palace, he immediately stood up and said, "Quickly, come and meet your own brother!"
Although they are half-siblings, they are both sons of the king, and of course they are brothers.
While speaking, his eyes fell on Jia Zhengjin behind Julian, and he was stunned: "Why are you back again?"
Julian greeted Atticas face to face.
The two brothers are actually quite embarrassed, after all, they are completely strangers to each other for the first time.
After smiling and nodding at each other, Julian looked at the king and said, "Father, this Mr. Martin Payton is a strong man recommended by the mercenary guild, and he has come specifically for the Demon Canyon mission. I brought him in and had a good talk about the mission. ”
"Devil's Canyon?" Martin Peyton ......," the king frowned in thought, and then suddenly clapped his hands, "I remembered, I did think the name was a little familiar just now, but I didn't remember it." It turns out that he is a mercenary powerhouse who took over this mission at the same time, so why didn't he say anything just now?"
"I'm sorry!" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "First, I don't want to disturb His Majesty the King and Prince Atticas seeing each other, and I think I haven't seen him for more than 20 years, so I must have a lot to say; ”
"Oh~ I see!" the king suddenly realized.
"It's understandable, but it's better to discuss the matter of the Demon Canyon as soon as possible," Julian said, "and the people in the country are really getting more and more panicked, and we must solve the problem as soon as possible." ”
"That's right. The king looked at Jia Zhengjin, "Mr. Martin, I'm sorry for you!"
"It's not troublesome, I'm here for this. Jia Zhengjin's eyes turned between the king and Prince Julian, and said in his heart that something like this happened just now, it didn't seem to affect the father and son at all? Although the queen's secret forces are helping the eldest prince consolidate his position, and the king also knows about it, it doesn't seem to affect the mutual trust between them?
The king seems to have said that it was the eldest prince Julian who took the initiative to report, and he led his troops to stop the Marquis of Cruth. It is obvious that the prince is against the queen's forces doing this, and it is probably because of his unscrupulous behavior that the king trusts him?
This is someone else's family, especially the royal family environment is extremely complicated, and he doesn't bother to delve into it.
In short, Atticas was successfully delivered, and the rest is none of his business, as long as the problem of the Demon Canyon is dealt with.
"In that case, let's talk about the mission of the Demon Canyon!" Jia Zhengjin didn't talk nonsense, "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, I don't know how much information you have about the Demon Canyon? Basically, the more information, the easier it will be to complete the mission!"
"This ......," the king looked at the eldest prince, Julian.
Julian immediately replied: "In terms of intelligence, we don't know much. Because those who were sent into the Demon Canyon in the past, whether mercenaries or generals, lost their memories in the canyon after returning. All we can offer is a list of those who have entered the Devil's Canyon in the past and returned safely. ”
"Since they have all lost their memories, they may not be able to get useful information from them!" Jia Zhengjin said with a frown.
"That's right, we've actually tried a lot of methods, and we've even brought in a lot of great magicians, hoping to get some information from these people. "The results have been disappointing, and so far nothing has been achieved. ”
"In other words, you don't have any information?"
"Exactly!" Julian sighed.
"Mr. Martin, the task of the Devil's Canyon is left to you!" the king said as he spoke, "whatever cooperation you need, I will do my best to assist as long as it is reasonable." And Julian, as the main person in charge of providing assistance, sincerely hopes that this time the truth of the Demon Canyon can be revealed, and give us a stable living environment in the country of Normia. ”
"Your Majesty, rest assured, since I have come here, I will definitely complete the task. I don't know if there are any other relevant details, whether you think it is important or not, you can tell me carefully. ”
......
In the palace, Jia Zhengjin seriously discussed the matter of the Demon Canyon with the king and Prince Julian, and kept asking for relevant news, but he gained little and was unable to figure out in the end.
He didn't come out of the palace until a few hours later, and the brothers Julian and Atticas sent him outside.
Before leaving, Jia Zhengjin took out a few nanoworms from his pocket and reached out to Prince Julian.
Seeing the "bug" in his hand, Julian was startled: "Mr. Martin, what are you doing here?"
Atticas also saw nanobugs for the first time, and thought they were real bugs, so he also stepped back.
The nanobugs are so realistic that everyone will think that they are real bugs at first glance, and it is no wonder that the other party reacts this way.
"Don't worry, two princes, my bugs don't bite. Jia Zhengjin didn't explain, "Actually, I want to ask Prince Julian, can you send someone to send this bug to the vicinity of the Demon Canyon?"
"Near the Demon Canyon?" Julian looked at Jia Zhengjin in amazement, "It can be, but why do you do it?"
"I should have gone and seen it myself, but I didn't sleep much last night, and I'm so sleepy!" Jia Zhengjin glanced at Atticas, "so I have to go back and rest for a while." This bug is my pet and can be used as a scout. So let them take my place and make a night break into the Demon Canyon to see if they can bring back some useful information. ”
Of course, Atticas knew why Jia Zhengjin hadn't slept last night, and after the shadow curse appeared, the three of them actually woke up until dawn, and they were now sleepy.
"Scouting?" Julian looked at the bug in Jia Zhengjin's hand suspiciously, and thought carefully for a while, "Is this little bug really useful?"
"There's no loss in trying. Jia Zhengjin yawned, "I'm really sleepy today, but I can't do nothing, right?"
"Alright then!" Julian hesitated closer, "they...... You really don't bite, do you?"
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, rest assured, you will never bite. Jia Zhengjin smiled and said, "Please stretch out your hand." ”
Julian originally wanted to say, why don't I call someone to come and get it? But when the words came to his mouth, he felt that this would be looked down upon, and if a prince was even afraid of insects, wouldn't it make people laugh if he didn't go?
After thinking about it for a while, he finally pretended to have the courage to stretch out his right hand, and the back of his hand trembled slightly.
Jia Zhengjin leaned over and let the nanoworm quickly climb the back of Prince Julian's hand: "Let someone send them to the outskirts of the Demon Canyon, and then just throw them in." ”
"Okay! leave it to me!" Julian looked sad, but when the worm crawled on his hand, he was uncomfortable.
