Chapter 271: Storm Queen
It was a woman.
She was tall and wore an extremely gorgeous red robe, but the hem was already a little tattered, and she had not changed it for many years, and she had a silver short sword pinned to her waist. The most striking thing is that she has beautiful long silver hair, which unfortunately falls over her shoulders as if she has never been taken care of, but it also adds a bit of wild beauty to her.
This silver-haired woman has a beautiful appearance, a wanton and high-spirited expression, and there is a lofty momentum between Gu Pan, as if she does not take all the characters in the world in her eyes.
When she came out of the portal, her air seemed to freeze and become extremely depressing.
Wren was very familiar with this aura.
It's a Holy Soul Wizard!
The Holy Soul Wizard who was able to arrive so quickly, and used his portal to enter the lair, the identity of the person in front of him did not need to be guessed, it must be the ruler of the Principality of Hohavon - the Storm Queen, the terrifying witch who shook the empire.
Not only Wren, but several other teammates also recognized her identity and hurriedly put down their weapons.
Queen of the Storm has two well-known characteristics:
One is amorous.
Hundreds of years ago, when she was a legendary witch, she became the queen of the Grand Duke of Hohavon, and when the Grand Duke died and had no children, he handed over the throne to her and became the queen in the name of justice.
But it didn't take long for the Queen of the Storm to reveal her true nature, and countless scandals were rumored.
It is said that she has the first three thousand, no man is unhappy every night, her private life is extremely erosive, many famous beautiful men are her guests, and she has also fallen in love with several of them, and became her beloved, but it did not last long.
The second is hot-tempered and extremely cruel to the enemy.
In the early days when she became Queen Hohavon, she was not a holy soul wizard, and some people did not accept the rule, especially the side branch members of the former Grand Duke's royal family, who tried to rebel many times, but she was suppressed with great strength, and launched a bloody purge, almost killing the royal family.
Any enemy who dares to oppose her, threaten her rule, or challenge her authority never comes to a good end.
However, the Storm Queen is tolerant of the common people, and despite her notoriety for her private life, she has long won the affection of many of her people.
It can be said that the Queen of the Storm single-handedly ruled the Duchy of Hohavun.
Cruel to enemies like a storm, but as warm as the spring sun to friends, this is one of the reasons for the name of the Storm Queen.
Wren saw this Holy Soul Witch for the first time, and looking at her appearance, he suddenly found that it was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
He has an excellent memory, and it is impossible to forget such an outstanding beauty.
"I've seen Her Majesty. ”
Mei Lige took the lead in saluting in fear, taking the opportunity to remind everyone of the identity of the visitor.
The others also bowed down and lowered their heads, for fear of upsetting the powerful witch, and threw out two nine-ring spells. Only Yask couldn't contain his curiosity, and quietly looked up at the rumored Storm Queen, revealing a handsome face.
The Storm Queen's gaze swept over the crowd and lingered on Asker's face for a moment.
Yask noticed this detail, and his heart pounded, and he took a deep breath and raised his hand to straighten the clothes on his body.
"Hmm. ”
The Storm Queen replied faintly, her voice leaning towards neutral, "You're Melly, I remember you, you came to my castle for a banquet five years ago"
"Yes, Your Majesty. ”
Melligo was secretly happy, not only because the Storm Queen remembered her, but also because the other party was not hostile.
However, before she could open her mouth to explain the situation, the Storm Queen suddenly disappeared.
The five looked at each other.
A few seconds later, a burst of fire flickered, and the Storm Queen returned to everyone, her face was not very good-looking, and she snorted coldly: "It turned out to be a vampire's lair, you guys did a good job." ”
"You should have been planning for a long time to kill a vampire count, this is a contribution to Hohavin, and I should reward you. ”
"Tell me, what do you want?"
The Storm Queen's words overjoyed everyone, and they all set their eyes on Roger.
"Demon Hunter, your strength is good, congratulations on your upcoming promotion to the middle rank of Legend. The Queen of the Storm immediately guessed that Roger was the leader of the team in front of her.
Roger stroked his chest and saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
The Storm Queen's eyes narrowed, she observed Roger for a few seconds, and waved, "If you're not afraid of being retaliated against by vampires in the future, this White Crow Winery belongs to you." ”
She didn't give Roger a chance to refuse, and walked through the portal and left.
From beginning to end, the Storm Queen didn't notice Wren with his face covered by his helmet, nor did she notice that he wasn't an Iron Guard at all.
Everyone waited patiently for another half minute, making sure that the Storm Queen would not return, and then they really relaxed.
"Holy Soul Wizard is terrifying!"
Melly wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.
Roger also let out a sigh of relief, and a conversation with the Storm Queen made him feel more dangerous than fighting Arritin.
Isu was better, he had seen Anthy Vodaus a few times, so he wasn't very nervous.
Not to mention, Wren had met with his teacher almost every day before leaving Mordu, and he had long been accustomed to the might of the Holy Soul Wizard, and the Will of Truth protected him from influence.
He turned his head to look at Asker, and noticed that the troubadour, who usually talked a lot, had become unusually silent, his eyes flickering, and the corners of his mouth showed an inexplicable smile.
The Soul Eye shows that Asker's soul color is yellow and green at the moment, and pleasure and love are intertwined.
"This guy ......"
Wren laughed secretly, no matter how bad the reputation of the Storm Queen is, she will not be hungry, and she wants to get into bed when she sees a handsome man.
He reopened a portal and returned to Mellice's home.
Seeing the small garden-like courtyard, everyone's minds finally relaxed, and they walked into the living room and sat down on the sofa or the floor casually, not wanting to move at all.
Wren felt very good, he didn't consume too much strength, not even a drop of blood was shed, and the sequelae caused by the "Fury Beast Blood Elixir" had long been replenished by the electricity.
After absorbing half of Arritin's soul, the converted electricity upgraded several elements, and the power returned to a full state.
This made him even more energetic than before he set off.
Not long after he sat down, Yask finally came to his senses, jumped up from the couch, and excitedly exclaimed, "Roger, you've got White Crow Winery!"
"I haven't decided whether to accept ...... or not," Roger's face hesitated.
"Do you need to think about it? Definitely accept it!" Asker interrupted Roger, "Do you know how much White Crow Winery is worth? The annual income from winemaking alone is more than 30,000 gold guilders, you don't have to do anything, you can make money lying there." ”
Mellige's eyes lit up, if Roger accepted the winery, he would stay in Hohavon for a long time, which was what she wanted to see the most.
However, she also had concerns, frowning, "What about those vampires?"
"It's too simple. Yask immediately came up with an idea, "Ask the Queen of the Storm to visit the winery a few times, and then let the news go so that no vampire dares to come and ask for trouble, unless they are tired of being alive or want to be kicked out of Hohavin." ”
Wren couldn't help but look at him with admiration, this was a very practical approach.
With so many vampires in and around Jubil Hill, the Storm Queen must know that she should have reached some kind of tacit agreement with the vampire camp to allow them to hide in the underworld as long as they don't blatantly cause sabotage.
If they attack White Raven Winery, they are provoking the authority of the Storm Queen.
There shouldn't be many such stupid vampires.
Roger figured out the key point, judging from the attitude of the Storm Queen just now, it was not difficult to invite her to the winery, and even hinted at it.
He smiled and said, "I didn't expect that one day, I would also own a winery." ”
Melly smiled happily, and Yask was excited.
"Let's divide the spoils. ”
Wren pulled out everything he had scavenged from the vampire's lair, several large chests filled with gold shields, alchemy materials, and gems, as well as the blood-colored cloak, and a spatial ring. He checked it, and there were also a lot of valuable things in the ring, a batch of potions and materials, and they were all taken out.
So many treasures were piled up in the living room, dazzling with golden light, and the room was full of brilliance.
"Hiss......"
Except for Wren, everyone else took a light breath.
I didn't feel it when I looted it just now, but now I realize how shocking it is to have so much wealth in front of me, and the harvest of this hunt is too great.
"Rich, rich......"
"How are we going to distribute so many good things?" Asker rubbed his hands in anticipation.
The crowd looked at Roger, waiting for his decision.
Roger groaned a few times and said, "Everyone took risks for me, helped me hunt Arritin, gave me the opportunity to be promoted to the middle level of the legend, and also got a winery, I won't participate in the distribution of these things, you can divide them equally." ”
"You don't have to persuade me, that's it. ”
He picked up the blood-colored cloak and said with a smile, "It's the most valuable, it's an epic piece of equipment with high-level magic resistance, which of you wants it?"
Isu immediately shook her head, "I already have a cape, it's no worse than it." ”
"This cloak is so ostentatious, and it's so red, it doesn't fit my aesthetic, I don't like it. Yask smiled and said, "I still prefer the golden shield, hehe......"
Mellice thought for a moment, "It's not for me. ”
"Wren, then I can only give it to you. ”
Roger didn't say a word, and immediately stuffed the cloak into his hand, "But if you take this cloak, you can't participate in the distribution of other loot." ”
"Okay, thank you very much. ”
Wren gladly accepted, knowing that everyone else was interested in giving up the cloak to him.
An epic piece of equipment, and it is a rare high-grade magic resistance cloak, if it is auctioned, it can be sold for at least 200,000 gold shields or even higher, and taking the cloak yourself is definitely a great advantage.
He really wanted it, thinking that if someone competed, he was willing to compensate with an equivalent gold shield.
This result could not be better, and it does not hurt the peace.
It took more than an hour for the group to count the remainder, estimate the value, and divide it equally among the three people.
Asque took most of the gold shields, nearly 100,000, Meligo got almost all the alchemy materials and gems, she was also an alchemist, these were all she needed, and the spatial ring gave Ys, along with a few of the most valuable pieces of equipment, which added up to almost 100,000 gold shields.
Everyone got what they wanted, and everyone was happy.
After that, the five of them held a small celebration party at Merrico's home, playing cards and drinking until dawn, and they were all very drunk.
Wren hadn't been happier in a long time.
In his previous life, he was a person who liked to play with friends, and it was rare to have the opportunity to drink heartily, but because he had the will to truth, he would never get drunk, and after drinking a few large barrels of fine wine, his mind was still extremely sober, without the slightest drunkenness.
"It turns out that this is the feeling of a thousand cups not being drunk. ”
Wren sighed, and felt a little regretful in his heart, he lost some of his pleasure if he didn't drink well.
After two days of feasting and getting too busy with cards, Wren knew it was time to leave, so he said goodbye to Roger and the others, agreed to see him next time, and returned to the airship with Isu.
