Chapter 476 The Great Sage's Request
Although his actions were very gentlemanly, Xia had no intention of sitting.
Because she hates to sit under her ass with other people's things.
Just as he was about to politely refuse, a loud laugh suddenly sounded in the distance:
"Is there a big guy coming? There was a queue to greet the VIPs, Elio, you can't hide people secretly. ”
This voice is very loud, but you can hear that there is a lack of energy, and the person who came does not seem to be a strong person.
Xia turned his head to look north, and saw a fat man in aristocratic clothes being carried towards him.
Carrying his things is a bit like the holy sedan chair that Agnes is riding, but it is much wider and stronger, this fat man weighs at least 400 pounds, his face is full of horizontal meat, but the two people who carry the sedan chair look very relaxed, and their strength must not be weak.
The fat nobleman's two small eyes shone brightly, swept over Elio and Duragal, and finally landed on the face of the silver-haired girl.
At the beginning, he, like all men who saw Xia, had a full of amazement in his eyes, and even revealed a strong desire from them. Hope.
But then he recognized that the girl was the princess of the kingdom, who had recently become famous, and his mouth opened slightly, and swallowed back the frivolous words that were almost out of his mouth.
"It turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess, it's really disrespectful."
Although he said this, the fat nobleman's face did not have the slightest respect, but greeted Elio and the new great sage with great interest, and ordered his subordinates to turn the sedan chair and hurriedly leave the central camp.
He lacks interest in beautiful women who can't put his mouth down, and it's better to be out of sight and out of mind than to look at his greed.
Long before coming to the beach, Luo Ye warned all the nobles and army commanders in a stern tone that they must not be rude to the princess of Westminster, and he did not want to provoke that terrible woman.
"In the past few years, there have been no scandals around the second prince. I haven't heard of anyone who I have signed a marriage contract with, could it be that I have fallen in love with the princess of this small country? ”
He swayed up and down with the sedan chair while pondering the relationship between the other party and the royal family in his heart.
"This idiot fat man is Daniel, the hereditary duke; It's lazy to eat, but it's very mixed up in the upper echelons of the empire, and I don't know what the royal family thinks. You actually sent such a guy who dragged his feet over......"
Duragal didn't finish his sentence and shut his mouth.
Natsu noticed that he secretly bit his tongue and forcibly cut off the rest of the words.
"Sure enough, the empire is determined to open up the New World, which is why so many warships came."
Xia squinted his eyes and swept the seven giant ships that were faintly visible in the distance, if it was just according to what Luo Yexin described, there was no need to dispatch such a huge fleet at all.
"Elio, who is this?"
At this time, a group of soldiers also came from the south, led by a middle-aged man.
His face was thick and wooden. His eyes are extremely sharp, and a thick cocoon can be seen on the hand holding the hilt of the sword, which should be a master of using a sword.
"Reich, this is the target we need to escort this time, Her Royal Highness the Princess of Westminster."
Elio introduced the visitor.
The middle-aged man named Lei Zhe bowed to Xia silently, and then left with the soldiers.
His gaze didn't stay on that beautiful face for too long, and his sharp eyes didn't show any expression, looking completely different from the fat nobleman just now.
"That is the former guard of the second prince. He is also the captain of the palace garrison, and his name is Lei Zhe; However, he has now been transferred to the army. Became a general. ”
Since Natsu had no intention of sitting, Elio also stood by the campfire with her, and the two of them took out a letter from their arms and checked it, and after confirming that it was correct, they destroyed the two letters on the spot.
The black cat guessed correctly, this beautiful man with long smoky blond hair was indeed a magician, and he was quite clever. He lightly drew an arc in the air with his fingers, and without even seeing the flames, the letter turned to ashes.
Natsu's method was also peculiar, she held the letter in her hand, and then opened it again. The contents of the palm of the hand are gone.
"Elemental cutting?"
Both Elio and Duragal are well-informed figures who recognize this top-tier wind spell.
In addition to being frightened by the princess's spell manipulation, he also developed a deep fear of it.
If it's just subtlety, or a lot of magic, there are at least a hundred magicians in Harlem who can do that.
But after Natsu used countless tiny small wind blades to cut the letter paper into dust-sized pieces, the fluctuations caused by the spell suddenly disappeared without a trace, and no one knew how she did it.
"It would be terrible if she used this method to carry out the assassination."
Among them, the great sage longed for the silver-haired princess from the heart, but he didn't think too much about it, but Elio's heart sank.
"Fortunately, she is reluctant to get on the boat, and if there is such a person on my ship, I am afraid I will not even be able to sleep well at night."
A hint of vigilance rose in his heart.
"You can go at any time."
Xia didn't mean to greet the two, and said bluntly:
"I'll be following you...... I'll help in case of danger, but I'm sure that won't happen. ”
She still knows the strength of the Imperial army very well, whether it is a sea monster or a storm, it will not pose a mortal threat to these people, and the chance of her turn to come forward is very small.
"Please let me be your bodyguard, Your Highness Princess."
The Great Sage bowed down and said:
"Although the Empire's fleet is invincible, there are still many troubles waiting for us along the way."
He straightened up, his face a little stern:
"The spying on Truis, the spy of the tech kingdom, the daring pirate, the unknown monster...... There are even legendary sea undead, these are unpredictable factors, because we simply do not know where the enemy is. ”
"So let me stay with you."
His expression was very sincere:
"I'm pretty good at detecting and controlling enchantments, and I should be good enough."
I don't know why, after hearing his words, Xia suddenly remembered the scene of playing the game before:
"Ding Dong!"
"The Great Sage of the Empire, Duragar, wants to join your team, do you agree?"
"--Agree/Refuse".
“…… I appreciate your kindness. ”
Still, she rejected this one's request:
"If I need your help, I'll ask."
Even if she has several relationships with each other, in fact, she and this imperial sage still belong to the category of strangers; How is it possible to let such a person casually join his team?
Duragal followed Elio to the flagship in frustration, and Xia quietly waited for their backs to disappear into the cabin, turned around and came to a hidden place, and let the little Lori in black take out the communicator.
"Haha, captain, long time no see."
A gruff voice came from the communicator:
"We've been under the noses of the Imperials for three days now, when are we going to go?" (To be continued......)
