Chapter 820: Paladin, this store does not entertain troublemakers (40)
"You're early?" After standing in front of Qian Qian, he immediately stretched out his hand and touched Safin who was standing aside, and greeted the proud Mr. Griffin: "Hey, Safin, everything is going well on the road, right?" ”
"It didn't take long." Qian Qian glanced at the group of people who followed Evangel before asking, "You knew Duke Frecy's son before?" ”
"You know him?" Evangel glanced back at Christian's group who were approaching: "Except for that elf, it's the first time I've seen anyone else. ”
Qian Qian had just opened his mouth to answer Evan Jie, and Christian, who was following behind, had already run in front of her in a few steps, looking at her with a look of surprise: "Lily! I didn't expect to meet you here. What a blessing! ”
"It's a coincidence." Qian Qian just nodded politely at Christian, and wanted to say a few kind words, but was interrupted by Leopold, who hurriedly squeezed in front of her.
"Hey! Hello! Introduce myself, my name is Leopold Solon, hello Miss Lily Burt of Salfieldburg! We've met, do you remember? You were an eight- or nine-year-old girl! I didn't say hello, but I did. Leopold looked at Qian Qian expectantly, as if he couldn't wait to get her affirmative answer.
"I remember. It's a pleasure to see you again, Prince Leopold of Sorrenburgh. Qian Qian didn't know what was wrong with her not knowing Leopold at all, but she still greeted politely.
"I knew you remembered." Leopold immediately laughed happily: "Then take the liberty of asking, the old man who was with you at the time, Chris told me, he is the great alchemist Ivan, it is indeed Ivan, right?" Dear Miss, I wonder if you can introduce me, I myself admire Lord Ivan very much, and I hope to have the opportunity to receive his guidance. ”
"Ivan is indeed my mentor. But sorry. Qian Qian looked at Leopold with a little regret: "I'm afraid it's impossible for you to visit him." Ivan died when I was twelve. ”
"What?" Leopold looked at Qian Qian in surprise: "How is this possible!" When he was with you, he looked healthy. ”
"Yes!" Speaking of his mentor Ivan, Qian Qian reached out and pulled down the hood on his head to show respect: "But there was some accident." It was I who dragged Ivan down, and he was seriously injured to protect me, so he couldn't help but leave early. ”
"Hurt?" Leopold was obviously very shocked, and he looked at Qian Qian blankly as if he couldn't react: "What kind of damage can knock down the great alchemist Ivan?!" He's Ivan-sama! ”
"It's Anne Luck, the Blood Witch." Evangel on the side explained the whole reason in one sentence: "Someone betrayed Lily's news to Anne Luck. ”
"I see." Leopold looked at Qian Qian with sympathy: "A young female magician with high talent, you are indeed an ideal hunting target. ”
"So," Christian's face turned serious, "Anne Luck crossed the abyss of misery and appeared in the Bloodleaf Kingdom a few years ago without us even knowing it?" ”
"Yes!" Qian Qian turned to face His Royal Highness the Prince, who was going to lead the Demon War in the future: "Among the nobles of the Blood Leaf Kingdom, someone has made a deal with the Demon. Our Bishop of Salfidburg was the first to notice the anomaly, and you can ask him about the situation, but I cannot return to Salfeldburg at this time, and therefore I cannot give you specific details. ”
"This is a very important situation." Christian immediately turned his head and looked at Leopold seriously: "Leo, immediately report this situation to Lord Duke Sauron, and ask him to contact the Bishop of Salfield Castle, if the situation is serious, we need to notify the various lords immediately." ”
"Don't you think it's weird, Chris?" Leopold also frowned: "If the Bishop of Salfield Fort had discovered traces of demonic activity a long time ago, he would definitely report it to the Holy See, and the Holy Light Holy See would have known about this matter for a long time, and logically speaking, at least the king would know about it, but we haven't heard any news about it so far, this is not normal." ”
"This happened after the king became seriously ill. The situation in the kingdom was already very chaotic at that time, and there was news that Grand Duke Lancelot had been poisoned, and according to the information of our Lord Bishop of Salfield Fort, it was someone of my suitors who had made a deal with the devil. Qian Qian dutifully reported everything she knew to the future king, anyway, she opened the tavern in the future to provide information to Christian's team, these should be her own job.
"Grand Duke Lancelot was not poisoned, but cursed, very evil black magic." Leopold's brows furrowed even tighter: "Because he is the queen's younger brother, I went to see him after the news that he was seriously ill." I don't know if these two things have anything to do with each other. We used to think that this was a conspiracy of careerists to overthrow the powerful Archduke Lancelot and seek great political gain. But for now, it may not be that simple. ”
"Someone in the Blood Leaf Kingdom actually made a deal with a demon," Elf Anka glared at Christian with sharp eyes: "This is an act of betrayal of an ally, Chris, you must inform our Elven King of this matter." ”
"I will, Anka." Christian nodded solemnly at Anka: "You can send a message to the Elven King to inform them of this news now." However, we do not know much at this time, and we will not know until Leopold's father contacts the Bishop of Salfieldburg. But I expect that we will soon face a more serious situation, with the Demon Lord openly crossing the abyss of misery to hunt down the mages of our Blood Leaf Kingdom, and the turmoil on the border may not be far away. ”
"I need to go back!" Milton, the dwarf who turned a big beard into pigtails, looked at Christian: "Chris, I have to go back!" If the demonic border is unstable, we dwarves must also prepare in advance. ”
"It should." Christian nodded, then turned to the orc girl and said, "Eluka should also go back to your territory and inform your chieftain." All races need to prepare in advance to guard against demonic invasions. ”
"But," Eluka looked at Christian and Leopold with some concern, "Milton and I are gone, and only you and Ankka are left, what if there is danger?" ”
"Don't worry, we have no problem, we will go directly to the Elf King Capital, and there will be no delay on the way." Christian, who seemed to be the leader of several people, motioned to Eluka: "You and Milton hurry up, without further ado, I don't know when the abyss of misery will go wrong, and there is not much time left for us to prepare." ”
