Chapter 122: Quinn's Uneasiness
Jun'en Empire, the court of the Church.
Bobilis, who was dragging a heavy iron ball in the penitential corridor, had a lot of anxiety. Every day when he wakes up, he uses a chain to carve a scratch in the stone house of the church court to calculate the date, and today is his eighth day in the confessional gallery, which means that he has spent a week in the church court.
And now it was almost noon, Bobilis still did not see the beautiful woman today, which made him very anxious and uneasy, today was the fourth day that he had not seen the beautiful woman, Bobilis found for the first time, it turned out that missing was such a thing, he was sure that he was missing the beautiful figure, but she did not appear for a long time. He was like a small pool in summer, after being watered a few times by that beautiful figure, there were layers of fluctuations in his heart, but now he couldn't calm down.
Bobilis began to have some bad thoughts and speculations, wondering if something had happened to the beautiful woman, so he did not come to the court of the church, and he began to be a little worried.
The Capitol Chamber, in Quinn's chamber.
Dracula Rhodes sat upright in a cushioned soft chair, looking at the huge relief map in the room, and he had been sitting there for a while.
Quinn, who was sitting opposite Dracula Lot, was immersed in sorting out a large number of documents, making replies from time to time, and his movements were slow and orderly.
"It's been a week, Quinn. Dracula spoke slowly, his voice low and magnetic, his face wrinkled with old wrinkles, his eyes piercing, his collar straight, and his cane-holding palm with several rings set with gems of different colors.
"Yes, Dracula, I know, it's been a week, but it's only been a week, Dracula. Quinn answered him slowly, his hand movements not stopping, and he continued to slowly and orderly approve many documents.
"Oh, by the way, I have a message on my hand that might be of interest to you. Quinn continued.
Dracula took his gaze back from the relief map on the wall and looked at Quinn, who stopped what he was doing, raised his head, and said slowly: "My people in Carroston have given me very interesting news, Gerald Teuton's eldest granddaughter appeared in Carouston City yesterday and visited a place called Maple Manor under the arrangement of the Chamber of Commerce. ”
When Dracula heard the news, he frowned slightly and did not make a sound.
"I forgot to tell you, the owner of Maple Leaf Manor is the high-level magician Li Xuan who suddenly appeared in Carouston City. Quinn said slowly.
Dracula slowly asked, "What did Gerald Teuton's eldest granddaughter do with that high magician?"
"Gerald Teutton's granddaughter, Christina, was a very interesting child, who is said to have sworn to become a magician, and because of this, she awakened dozens of times, but never succeeded. And this time she appeared in Carouston, also because she hoped to realize her wish with the help of the high-level magic awakening liquid configured by that high-level magician Li Xuan. ”
"Configure a high-grade awakening potion?" Dracula's expression became a little solemn.
"Did she wake up?" asked Dracula.
"Gerald Teuton's granddaughter stayed in the manor for a long time before leaving, and I can't find out if it's successful, but if it's really a high-level awakening potion, I think she has a good chance of success. Quinn said slowly.
"Gerald......" Dracula muttered.
"That's not the most important news for Carroston. Quinn's expression became solemn little by little.
Seeing his rare solemn expression, Dracula frowned and asked, "What else is the important news?"
Quinn slowly sat up straight, his palms pressed against a dozen papers, touching them gently, not speaking, quietly thinking.
Dracula saw his movements, didn't ask, quietly grabbed his cane, looked at Quinn, and waited for him to speak.
After pondering for a long time, Quinn slowly spoke: "One early morning a few days ago, my people saw this Li Xuan mage at a post station north of Caroston, and he and a junior water magician named Lilian in Carroston. ”
Dracula frowned a little puzzled, but did not speak.
Quinn paused a bit and continued: "The news in Carroston City that day is that this Lilian Mage went to Master Li Xuan's manor early in the morning, and neither of them left the manor that day. ”
Dracula asked, "The message is wrong?"
Quinn shook his head: "The two messages were sent on the same day, and there is no communication between the two eyes, that inn is a whole day away from the city of Carroston, and the carriage is a whole day's journey. ”
"This news is only known to you now. Quinn added cautiously.
Dracula was a little puzzled, frowned and asked, "One of these two pieces of news must be wrong." ”
Quinn shook his head and said, "I confirmed this news through many sources, Master Li Xuan and they did appear at that post station that day, and they also had a little conflict with the people of the Grand Chamber of Commerce. ”
Dracula suddenly seemed to think of something, looked at Quinn in shock, his old face was almost stretched, his eyes widened, and he spit out a word with some trembling: "The gate of another dimension?"
Quinn looked at him with a solemn face and nodded slowly.
"This can't be! There are not a few magicians in the entire Arissanret Empire who can 'Gate of Different Dimensions', how can this Li Xuan be 'Gate of Another Dimension'?" Dracula's old face was full of disbelief, and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
"I hope it's a mistake, but I can't think of anything else. Quinn said heavily.
"When you first learned about this Master Li Xuan, you made the decision to recall Bobilis?" Dracula asked with a calm face.
Quinn nodded, and said slowly, "The sudden appearance of a high-level mage in a tense border town is a very bad sign, and I must let Bobilis avoid the possible risks. ”
Dracula looked at him deeply and said, "You're right, Quinn, thank you. ”
"That's just one factor," Quinn said, "and Bobilis will need to grow faster to face a more grim future." Nothing about Arissanret and Junn, mankind has been at peace for too long. ”
Dracula looked at Quinn suspiciously, realizing that Quinn's words seemed to mean something, but he couldn't think of any other meaning in Quinn's words.
Standing up slowly, Dracula glanced at the relief map on the wall and turned to leave Quinn's chamber.
Seeing Dracula leave, Quinn opened the drawer, took out two blackened pieces of parchment, and stared at the two twisted words on the two parchments - one with "death" and the other with "shepherdess".
