Chapter 129: Hopeless
Lady Sandra spent the whole afternoon running around with Andrew and the maid until nightfall. At dinner, Lin Xian found that the anxiety on her tired face was even heavier, and it seemed that the hard work of the day was meaningless.
"Paris, can I ask you a favor tomorrow?" After dinner, Mrs. Sandra invited Lin Xian and Paris to the reception room of the suite, and asked the maid to serve the tea cup before speaking.
Paris receives a hundred gold coins from others every day, but wanders around with nothing to do. Although she has never felt embarrassed, she can make some efforts and be more upright when she collects money, isn't it? So he nodded and said, "Of course it's no problem, you can say anything about it." ”
Lady Sandra groaned for a moment and said with a pleading expression, "I don't know if you are familiar with the government departments in Nasri, but I would like to ask you for some information. ”
That's the right question! Paris has grown up in Nasri since she was a child, and she is the daughter of the highest level of the three major organizations in the mainland, so can she not be familiar with the government departments here? And there is also an adventurer's guild behind her, which is the largest intelligence organization in the entire continent!
Paris patted her towering chest and said, "Absolutely no problem! If you want to know anything, I'll be sure to find out for you! If I can't even ask, then no one can ask! ”
Okay! This is said to be arrogant, it is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows, Gu Liang......
"As soon as Edward and I arrived in Nasri, we went to the House of Lords to register and ask to see His Majesty the King! According to the normal procedure, the House of Lords should send a messenger the next day to inform us of the date of the audience. But today is the third day, and there is still no movement! ”
Lady Sandra paused, sighed, and said with a heavy face, "Alas...... This morning I went to visit a former friend of my husband, the second son of a viscount family, who was unable to inherit the title and became a clerk in the House of Lords. I would have liked to ask him what the reason for the House of Lords not replying. But he refused to say it explicitly, and only said at the end that within three months, the House of Sobos would probably not be able to see His Majesty! ”
"But three months later, it's been more than half a year since my husband died! If you don't meet the king within half a year, it means that the Sobos family automatically gave up the right to inherit the title! I would like to ask you to inquire about what is preventing Edward from seeing His Majesty. Lady Sandra said.
"What are you going to do if I find out who did it? Why don't I hire another assassin for you to kill him, and I'll give you a 20% discount!" Paris said with a righteous and cloudy expression.
"Poof!" The tea in Lin Xian's mouth blurted out, what kind of bad idea is this? Do you want to earn that little bit of commission?
"No, of course it doesn't need to be so aggressive! I think Count Mayo's allies are playing in the way, and if I know who it is, I can talk to him. What Count Mayo can give, we can give! And it's more convenient Chia, isn't it? Lady Sandra hurriedly stopped Paris and said.
Hearing this, obviously because of the lack of a commission, Paris said listlessly: "Okay then, I'll go and inquire about the news tomorrow." Results will be available by tomorrow afternoon at the latest! ”
After the matter was over, Lin Xian and Paris said goodbye and left Lady Sandra's suite.
"Hey! When can you tell me the repayment plan? Now that my dad is here, I'm afraid I won't even be able to run! In the corridor of the hotel room, Paris asked Lin Xian.
"Haha...... The time has not come, so let's do it in a day or two! ”
Lin Xian replied with a laugh and walked towards his room.
……
In the bedroom of one of the hotel's guest rooms, the large bed made of solid wood is not only spacious but also richly decorated, surrounded by intricate and delicate patterns, and the mattress is stuffed with cashmere and velvet sheets.
Now Lin Xian is lying on the bed, but his face is bitter and hateful. He had just tried to cultivate the body refining secret technique of the Aesar God Clan, and this body refining secret technique was quite good, and in this extremely thin spiritual energy, he could even absorb a lot of spiritual energy! Even more than when I was in the Forest Elf Village, I used the Forest Elf's Spiritual Qi Refining Technique to absorb more!
It's a pity that as soon as the aura enters the body, it is immediately absorbed by the vortex galaxy in the dantian, and then turns into a trace of spiritual light and integrates into the whole body, and it can't run according to the route of the body refining secret technique at all! Is this [Eight or Nine Xuangong] or [Domineering Xuangong]......
The cultivation of the body refining secret technique is not smooth, Lin Xian doesn't care, the [Eight or Nine Xuangong] he cultivates is originally the top exercise, how can the entry technique of the Asa Divine Clan be compared?
Moreover, this exercise does not pay attention to the transportation of meridians, and it is not the same system as [Eight or Nine Xuangong] at all, and there is no reference! However, the forest elf's body refining secret technique has some similarities with this exercise, although it is much rougher, but there are still some veins to be found!
Lin Xian didn't know that in the era of the Elf Empire, the elves did not cultivate aura! In addition to the distinction between nobles and commoners, the elves also have a clear distinction between high and low status! Those elves who were born as civilians with poor magical talent could only be reduced to the lowest level of the empire, and they had not changed for thousands of years!
Although at that time, the art of spiritual energy refining had been widely spread among human beings. But the elves stubbornly believe that the art of aura refining is extremely crude, and the elegant elves will never learn it!
It wasn't until the great battle that led to the collapse of the Elven Empire that the elves realized the power of the Spiritual Qi Refining! Those elves who have no magical talent are even more like discovering a new continent, and after several twists and turns, they finally found a spiritual energy refining technique, and finally improved it to become suitable for elf cultivation, and created the druid transformation technique on this basis! This became the trigger for the elves to split......
"That way, my plan has a better chance of succeeding......," he thought silently, drifting off to sleep......
Early the next morning, Lady Sandra and Andrew continued to visit the nobles, hoping to find a way to meet the king. Paris disappeared early, and went to inquire about the news of Count Mayo's allies, she patted her chest yesterday and promised!
Only Lin Xian was still the same, leisurely and leisurely with little Sobos to continue the class. By the way, he has now begun to teach the Art of War.
"Therefore, the army is scheming, then the war is made, and then the army is attacked. The meaning of this sentence is ......" Lin Xian shook his head and said to little Sobos, shaking the feather fan in his hand, it was really a strategist's style!
Lin Xian actually knows a little about "The Art of War", but when he was on earth, he had read several annotated editions, and now he is learning and selling it now, and he is also teaching it decently! Moreover, he did not teach specific methods of warfare such as "initial planning", "warfare" or "military formation", but focused on "strategy" and other articles, after all, these would be more useful to become a qualified lord.
It wasn't until noon that Mrs. Sandra returned to the hotel again. Lin Xian didn't ask her what the result was, just from the anxiety on her face that was heavier than day by day, she knew that there was definitely no progress!
As soon as Paris entered the hotel door, she was invited to Lady Sandra's room by the maid waiting in the lobby.
"Is there a result? Have you found out who Count Mayo's ally is? Lady Sandra asked with an anxious look on her face. The elegance and calmness of the past are long gone.
Paris didn't sell anything, and said directly: "Count Mayo doesn't have any allies, he directly reached an agreement with the king, and it was the high priest of the temple Clarks who set up a line for them......"
Lady Sandra's face suddenly turned extremely pale, and her whole heart seemed to fall into a bottomless abyss! With such a powerful three-way alliance, each of which is much stronger than itself, can the Sobors family still have a chance......
