"So, the eldest lady of the Boleyn family is really gone?" In a clothing store on Avenue 1, Lucy picked up a dark red dress that hung on the wall and was the most popular in the empire this year, put it on herself, spun around and asked, "Does it look good?" ”

Alan nodded, the skirt has a dark red background, with black lace, and the fluffy treatment of the skirt looks noble and generous. However, the price of a skirt like this will not be too low, at least two hundred gold coins cannot be taken by any person.

Lucy put down her skirt, circled around Allen, and squinted, "Then you don't regret it now, it's an eldest lady." Just let her run. ”

Alan spread his hands and said, "Of course I regret it, that young lady still owes me a lot of money." ”

Lucy rolled her eyes and pulled Alan out of the clothing store. They had been in Sardinia for a few days, and Sean had had a lot to gain in the past few days. In addition to a lot of orders for weapons, it has also reached cooperation intentions with other chambers of commerce in many aspects such as grain, spinning and raw ore. Even at Edward's behest, Sean intentionally or unintentionally revealed the North-South Trade Route, and many merchants showed interest.

The trip to Sardinia City went more smoothly than expected, and after all, it was in Sling's attitude. Originally, he and Edward thought that Sling would embarrass them because of the Black Feather matter, but he didn't expect that instead of getting in the way, he also vigorously promoted the cooperation between the business community of Sardinia City and Allen, which was a bit funny. But in any case, the current situation is beneficial to Allen's side, and it is not difficult to see from Mark's visit that although the high-level of the empire in the north is surging, Allen's gains are not all enemies.

Staying in the city these days, Sean and his businessmen are the busiest, and Alan is rarely idle. In addition to attending a few banquets arranged by Slin, the rest of the time is mostly spent in the warmth of the source force. Today, Lucy was pulled out to go shopping, and the two of them wandered around aimlessly, wherever they went. This is a rare happy time for the two, and it is exactly what that sentence is. To truly love someone, it's not about saying "I love you" to her very often. It's where she goes, where I am.

Lucy stopped at a grocery store, unaware of what caught her eye. Alan watched as she crouched down at the small stall in front of the store, which was full of strange things. Like a mask with strange patterns, a broken tooth, a broken sword, or a half-edged skull, and so on. Lucy picked out a metal hexahedron from it, squinted her eyes, and then pressed her hand on the upper and lower cubes, spinning them in different directions, and a dark grid popped up in the middle.

At this time, the owner of the grocery store walked out and smiled when he saw this: "Does Miss like it?" This is a knick-knack I bought from an adventurer, and I heard it was unearthed from the Blood King's graveyard. It's just that it doesn't have much research value, and the Empire's investigation will not be accepted. I bought it for a small fee, and if Miss likes it, I can sell it to you for two gold coins. ”

Lucy took out a gold coin from her purse and threw it to the boss and said, "This thing is covered with a layer of dust, I think it's been a long time since you left it here." Sell me just a gold coin, or I don't know how long I will keep it. ”

The boss shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Miss's vision is really accurate, well, it is an honor to have such a beautiful lady as you here, and it is an honor for the small shop, so I will sell it to you." ”

Lucy threw the metal cube and walked back, Alan glanced at it, there were already dark green rust marks crawling on it, and frowned: "How did I not know, you like such things?" ”

"Didn't you hear the boss, it's something from the Blood King's Graveyard." Lucy threw the cube and squinted her eyes and said, "Have you ever thought that the Blood King Graveyard is the same ruins as the King Snake Base.

Alan immediately understood and whispered, "You mean, the Blood King's Graveyard may be a product of the Golden Tree Project?" ”

"It's not impossible. If you think about it, if the King Snake base in the highlands is discovered by the Empire, it should also be characterized as an ancient ruin. However, the scale of the Blood King's Graveyard is much larger than the King Snake base. If it is also a base in the Golden Tree Project, then its importance must be higher than that of the King Snake base. Lucy turned the cube in her hand.

Alan raised his forehead: "A king snake base hides a murderous thing like the queen." It's hard for me to imagine how many terrible things there are in the Blood King's graveyard, and I can't imagine what you studied in the Heavenly Star back then. ”

"Who knows, but I'm afraid that even my father doesn't know about it. I've asked him before, and he doesn't seem to know anything about the Golden Tree project. I couldn't find any clues when I went to the Royal Library, after all, it was the time of the Golden Rose, and it was too far away. I'm afraid the truth has long been annihilated in the long river of history. ”

The two saw that the time was not too early, so they returned to the Flying Elephant Hotel. In front of Hall 6, I saw a group of people in the distance, and even a group of soldiers from the Bucks Army. In front of the gate of Hall 6, it was blocked by a row of Mountain King warriors, and it seemed that they were confronting the Bucks Army. Alan frowned, approached with Lucy, and heard a man in the crowd shouting: "You are so bold, even our quartermaster department dares to stop you, when you are who, you are just a group of hillbillies from the border!" ”

Alan sneered when he heard this: "What is the Quartermaster Division, get out of the way of me." ”

He took a step forward, and under the escape of the qi, several Bucks soldiers standing in front of him turned pale, and subconsciously got out of the way. Then Alan saw an officer in a black uniform, shouting loudly at Edward's side. Hearing Allen's words, he turned around and was about to flare up with anger on his face. When he saw the appearance of the person in front of him, he probably knew Allen's identity, and swallowed back the words that rushed to his mouth. He coughed dryly and said, "This must be Sir Allen." ”

"It's good to know, say something quickly, and let it go if there's a fart. And then where to come from, call me where to go back. Alan said mercilessly.

The official's face was blue and purple, and he sneered and took out an official document from his body, handed it to Allen, and said, "Please take a look at Viscount Allen, according to the order of Lord Divan, the director of the Quartermaster Department, according to the Imperial Constitution, we will collect your Thunderwolf Rifle and other related weapons." Of course, it is not levied for free, and the Quartermaster will pay the viscount a sum of compensation. ”

"Oh? It's funny, I haven't heard of the Imperial Constitution, there is a clause in the Imperial Constitution that can be forced to requisition equipment, and it is still my equipment. Alan looked at Edward and asked, "Have you heard of it?" ”

Edward said indifferently: "There is such a provision in the imperial constitution for the expropriation of equipment. ”

The Quartermaster Officer immediately raised his head, and Edward added coldly: "However, it is pointed out that there is a prerequisite for the forced requisition of equipment, that is, the owner of the equipment has violated the laws of the Empire, such as treason, murder of an Imperial official, or a person who has no way to manage the territory. The Empire may confiscate its equipment, troops, and other related property in accordance with the law. But the executive party is not the Quartermaster Department, but the Imperial Inspectorate. ”

Alan nodded, didn't say a word, and reached out to rub the official document. When he let go of his hand, the document had turned to ashes. The officer of the quartermaster department blushed, pointed at Allen's nose and yelled, "Are you crazy? You are blatant disobedience! Come on, ...... him"

He wanted to ask the soldiers to take Eren down, but suddenly it occurred to him that the other party was an Imperial Viscount. In the whole city of Sardinia, I am afraid that only General Sling has the right to do this. At this time, Alan grabbed his finger with one hand and pressed it hard, and the official immediately screamed like a pig. And with the action of Allen pressing, he had to squat down so that his fingers would not be crushed by Allen. Alan looked at him with a sneer and said, "Don't play tricks with me, I don't know what your quartermaster department is paying attention to, but if you want to eat my equipment in the name of a clever name, there is no way." Go back and tell you what Director Devon, and if he doesn't come over in the evening to give me a satisfactory explanation, tell him to wait for me at home. Waiting for me to come to the door tomorrow to inquire in person, but just let me visit in person, I am afraid that your director will not be in such a happy mood. ”

Then Alan let go of him, didn't look at the man on the ground again, and walked into the door with Lucy and Edward. The quartermaster officer blushed, glared at the door, and walked away with the man.

This whole process falls on two pairs of eyes. It was located on the third floor of another hotel, opposite Building No. 6. Sling and Fat Peter were both standing by the window, the General with a blank face and Peter Fat with a wry smile. Watching the Quartermaster's Department leave, Fat Peter sighed: "These days, this Sir Allen seems to be a good talker, but I didn't expect him to be so tough, and he didn't take the Quartermaster Division in his eyes at all." didn't even say a few words about the scene, and just blasted people back. ”

Sling snorted and said, "Then you can figure it out, reveal the news of the Thunderwolf Rifle to Divin, and then let me hint that he will collect the equipment, and then you will go to the round." Peter, you have a good idea, first, to earn the goodwill of the sir, and secondly, to put up a quartermaster to suppress him, so that he can only sell you equipment invisibly, and you have monopolized the market for thunderwolf rifles. But now, it's self-defeating. I also had to go and reassure Divine, lest he be ignorant and really offend him. ”

"Don't you want to think that the character who dares to poke a hole in the dark place will be a fuel-efficient lamp?"

Fat Peter said angrily: "Then I proposed at that time, why didn't you object?" ”

Sling said unhurriedly: "If you don't let you learn it yourself, how can you learn to behave." That sir's wrist is more powerful than you and I can imagine. Otherwise, why do you think I tolerated him in every way, and even took the initiative to let a few of you meet with others. My black feather will be lost in the hands of this adult, but with my strength, I can't move him at all, but I will get into trouble. ”

"If you have a difficult character like this, you should leave it to those adults in the north to deal with."

Fat Peter laughed: "I said how did you old Sling become a shrunken turtle, so that's the case." There is no one else here, otherwise you tell me honestly, is the batch of equipment purchased for Old Mark your goods? ”

Sling sneered: "Joke, although I am the general of the Bucks Army, I am not able to transfer two hundred elite horsemen casually. What's more, 200 people have gone and never returned, how can you let me explain to the Imperial Military Department for such a big hole? ”

"In that case, someone else wants the life of that adult."

"This is nature, and I am definitely not the only one who suffers from the matter of the Dark Lands alone."
