Volume II, Chapter 90 Respectively
Augustine's temporary envoys were the third group of cheese snatchers who traveled from the imperial capital to the Vesalian Ice Fields, the first group led by Second Secretary of State Saadi to sign the Holy Empire and the Kamiu Empire to share the dominion of the New Gospel Continent or the British island chain, legally preventing the power of other kingdoms, and the second group led by the Imperial Foreign Minister, Marquis Achim, to sign the Holy Alliance. Augustine's envoy team was only an urgent addition to a series of subsidiary treaties, and the weight was naturally not as good as the first two, but it was still a delicious piece of cheese, and it was a golden opportunity for the court civil officials and staff to increase their resume chips, and the Count of Ibn, the Undersecretary of State for Foreign Affairs, was in a very good mood, until Augustine, whose temporary position was an auxiliary to the agreement, confirmed that His Majesty's document was true, and the count's face became even more stinky, and there was no need to run to the auxiliary magistrate who had occupied the precious place to remind him, he didn't bother to open his mouth to tell the envoy group surrounded by a large number of colleagues and noble children that there was one more enemy of the imperial capital, but he smashed more than 200,000 Caesars in the grizzly bear gambling market to bet that this young man would die earlyγ
Augustine was the most idle member of the bloated procession, his carriage hanging far from the tail of the car, and Count Ibn reluctantly symbolically sent two Templars to escort him next to the rudimentary carriage, the odd gold balance badge that made the Count uncomfortable to look at. Augustine was very grateful to the Count for his understanding, and was happy to stay in the carriage all day and read books for inspiration, and carefully pondered the direction of the poem, it is difficult to dismantle the labyrinth, and it is even more difficult to build the labyrinth, but the fun will rise in a straight line, before leaving Jupiter City, Old Clough provided two clues that are quite intriguing, Augustine lifted the curtains, looked at the scenery that was very different from the middle of the empire, and said softly: " The Teutonic priest is the only giant in the sacramental ministry who is willing to age naturally, and there is a good chance that the gossip that he is unwell is true, but this old man who does not resist death is the founder of Lucifer's laboratory, trying to artificially create a species close to the gods, which is very contradictory. Will Juggernaut Wilde take his place, or will he be the Ulise the Dark, who single-handedly created the Dead Sea Scrolls? β
Dimmit, the dark servant in the carriage, who was more noble than the nobles, laughed: "Master, Wilde is only a warrior of great strength, and he is by no means an heir to the favor of the Teutonic priests, and this sword master has never been interested in power. Ulise clearly has a better hand. As for the real hole cards of the two big men, I don't know. β
Augustine, who spread out the three-question gold pocket watch in the "Teachings", laughed to himself: "When can you set a trap for others like Mime-sama, and you can make people unable to refuse this 'kindness', it means that the order is really strong." I guess she and Lesshield both want Wilde to be on the throne as much as I do, not Ulise, who is supposed to be the chief staff member of the palace. This one-eyed dragon that smiles all day long is one of the very few perverts that can give me goosebumps when I see it. The same kind really repels the same kind. β
Dimet, who was no longer afraid of the sun but still hated the light, shrank into the shadows and said softly, "Master, it is an honor for Ulise to be your potential enemy. β
And the Lich Prince, who has no presence in any place, has never had much to say.
Augustine disagreed: "Dimmit, let me be blind and arrogant, it's not a good habit. Why, after no longer being afraid of the sun, you want to rule the darkness alone?"
Dimiit smiled bitterly: "Master, you underestimate the oath of the Setus family too much, and besides, the soul chain you planted in the heart of a certain saint is enough to easily knock me into the abyss. The most important thing is that Dimmit never reverses your prudence, which is an excellent quality that a qualified person must have. If, I mean, suppose, one day you can fully trust Dimmit, that's my greatest pleasure. β
The corners of Augustine's mouth were hooked, and the arc of his smile was a little wider than usual, and after the battle of Kepler's gallows, this mischievous signature smile made countless survivors tremble. Augustine lowered the curtain and stroked his gold pocket watch, " Old Clough said that our wise Emperor intends to build a large fleet that can smoothly travel to and from the New Gospel Continent, unlike merchant ships, huge sail warships will add superstructures to the bow and stern, if you set up string wall holes, it is almost the prototype of a battleship, oh, it makes no sense to tell you this, besides, in this era, strong theology has outlawed weak science, mages can completely replace gunpowder, and when the time comes, it will be able to develop brilliant naval warfare, once the Holy Empire has created a perfect maritime logistics supply route, the Empire will be at the forefront of the continent, because the new battlefield in the next hundreds of years is on the oceanγ It seems that the Emperor intended Napoleon to be the first architect of the new navy, and I wonder if the High Priest understands the weight of this supreme honor, and if he is still complaining that the Emperor did not let him show his face in the Vesalius Ice Field, then he is too incompetent as the number one staunch ally of the Chief Secretary of State. β
Dimmit sighed quietly, the master and Napoleon, could have become the twin stars of the empire, but now the situation is that the dwarf alone has become the sun of the empire.
But his master, Augustine, never thought he had shown any sentimentality about it. Putting away the gold pocket watch, he said softly: "I don't know if the harp escorted by Tollaucfe has arrived at the castle of Poetry." I'm sure Miss Elizabeth is going to be angry, haha. β
In Jupiter, Augustine auctioned off a floor-standing classical harp made by master luthier Grom Foltz for a staggering 300,000 Caesars. Even the elder Clough was shocked by the impression that the private priest, who had always been calculating, was so irrational and bold. The old earl's enquiries remained unanswered, but he had a team of knights carefully escort the huge and expensive harp. However, Mrs. Richmond did not hesitate to agree to the huge loan from her son's godfather, a move that puzzled many members of Clough.
The convoy finally entered the province of Pelotti in the north of the empire, but the envoys did not intend to stay for long, and the governor seemed to appreciate the noble mentality of the Earl of Ibn who was anxious to serve the empire, and did not have much uninteresting retention, but prepared a sumptuous dinner in the richest city of Descartes to entertain the envoys, and Augustine, who was silent at the banquet, was not very conspicuous, but only enjoyed the caviar that according to the host was taken from the roe of painted sturgeon that was more than fifty years old, so that the delicacies could only be supplied in such profligate quantities by the province of Pelotti, which bordered Kamio, which was rich in sturgeon, and according to the book of aristocratic etiquette, it should be accompanied by some low-alcohol soft red wineAugustine, on the other hand, was very "layman" with a glass of high-strength Soviet wine, and was still "fighting" with the delicacy of spirits and caviar in his mouth, which aroused the white eyes of some noblewomen who were originally very fond of his handsome appearance.
In front of him, a little lady with an angel face was glaring at him with puffed cheeks, and there was some plump caviar on the side of her mouth, obviously her anger did not affect the young lady's appetite too much.
Augustine was stunned and said, "Miss Elizabeth, don't tell me that the little boy and the little girl were brought to Descartes by you!"
She puffed up and nodded.
Augustine bent down to help her wipe off the caviar, and smiled softly: "Then please don't tell me that you are going to the Muse Continent soon, I can't bear too many blows in the same night." β
Miss Elizabeth said with a grumbling look in her eyes, "I'm sorry to tell you, yes, after sending you to the Vesalian Ice Field, I will continue north." β
Augustine took Lori's butler's hand and walked out of the noisy banquet hall, sat on the stairs of the secluded garden, and said softly, "So anxious?"
She sighed and said, "Ka Miao, that female madman who is admired by you, has come to such a hand, the Muse Continent must be boiling now, and my family needs me to go back and say something for them in the new round of reshuffle, even if it's nonsense." I lost the last time I lost the battle with Duke Marga, and the family's position in the Midgod Council is already a bit awkward, and if I don't attend the council in person, I will become a homeless wretched creature like you. You can rest assured, although I took away the little boy and girl, but left the hatching golden double-headed viper for you in the Black Swan Lake, you just don't forget to rush back and strive to appear at the moment when it breaks the shell, this golden subspecies, the biggest advantage is that it grows extremely fast, as long as you keep feeding, it can protect the Black Swan Lake in ten years. β
Augustine was silent.
Three hundred years ago, the Holy Mentor Hegel built the city's sewage system to save Descartes from the plague of black spots that swept away countless lives, and in the past few years, Augustine first entered the night watch branch in the northeastern county of Aileva, and participated in the night watch's secret operation to strangle the bloody Elizabeth with the Holy See Templars and Templars, at that time, the bloody queen in the top three of the Vatlantican Holy See blacklist had not changed her body, and Augustine was lucky not to meet her face to face in the underground waters, and later met for the first time under a world tree, and finally became acquainted and became a less solid ally, thanks to the absurd battle of Kepler's gallows, his and her encounters and acquaintances are indeed not romantic, and are always accompanied by one conspiracy and bloodshed after another.
Lori squeezed into his arms, Princess Mipeifen's body was refrigerated in the crystal ice coffin for hundreds of years, which made the little butler's body temperature cold all year round, and it would not be a comfortable feeling for Elizabeth, who fused the soul of the little princess Plantagenet, Augustine hugged this thin and slender body tightly, and held her cold little hand with both hands. Lori smiled: "Maybe one day the Queen will bloom a fireworks in the Muse Continent that you can see." When the time comes, you can come to the muse. β
Augustine teased, "Even if I go, you won't entertain me with a female elf." β
Elizabeth murmured softly, "Remember the city, it was in the sewers of Descartes that I first smelled you." At that time, I just wanted to give you to the orcs to share the food. So, in the future, who knows what it will look like. β
Augustine snorted.
Lori opened her mouth coldly and bit Augustine's arm fiercely, with great force, she bit out blood marks, raised her head and screamed aggrievedly: "Augustine, don't you feel a little sad?"
Augustine bowed his head and said calmly: "It's not that we won't see each other again, why are you sad?"
Lori pouted, "You should have given me a bouquet of roses." You see, there are so many flowers in the garden, you can pick one and give it to me, or kiss me?"
Augustine shook his head slowly and said with a smile, "It's better to stay next time." β
After that, from Descartes City to the border of the province of Pelotti to the Vesalian Ice Field in the territory of the Kamiu Empire, the angry Queen Elizabeth never ignored the cold-blooded Augustine, she shrank in the small corner that she occupied after letting the viscount get out, but her eyes always looked at a certain guy with sadness and resentment, and the latter never paid attention to it, he went to the White Rose, Titan and more than a dozen imperial principalities and city-states trade areas in the Caucasus as a red glove, but never had the opportunity to browse the unique scenery of Kamiao, the Vesalius Ice Sheet is the first of the three major plains of the epic continent, wider than the red Gogol plain of the Titans, except for the hot and short summer, lakes, swamps, and frozen soil, forest, ice and snow, the scene is magnificent. The carriage of Augustine's carriage simply hooked, and the cold wind blew into the carriage, but fortunately, he and the Prince-class Dark Minions and the Lich King, who had lost the temperature of his soul, did not feel uncomfortable coldness, and occasionally the Templars cast a glance mixed with curiosity and conceit. In addition to The Teachings, Augustine spent a lot of time flipping through The Blind Man's Eyes.
The envoys arrived at their destination without stopping, and the Count hastened to visit the Marquis of Achim, the foreign minister, who had not yet left the Vesalius Icefield, and at this time the Count finally remembered the young "big man" who was only half a rank below him in name, and asked a low-ranking clerk who had become his double confidant in bed because of his youth and handsomeness to send a message to the Auxiliary Governor of the Agreement to meet His Excellency the Foreign Minister. Augustine stepped out of the carriage, and Lori kicked off the goose-down quilt and climbed out of the carriage, reluctantly putting on her cloak and preparing to part, she did need to go to the Muse that was further north than the Far North, a savage continent far less poetic than its name.
Hiding in the bloated cloak and cloak, even if the little queen only raised her head, she could only reveal a white and sharp delicate chin, and said softly: "Augustine, from today onwards, there is no such thing as me, a very unqualified butler, you must be stealing fun, right?"
Augustine took off the horses from the carriage and left the blonde horseman Ares and the Lich King in place, he led the two horses, looked at "a cloak", did not give a direct reply, and smiled: "It is not in accordance with the rules of knighthood to let a lady cross the ice field alone." β
She took off her cloak, looked surprised and shocked, and nervously shouted, "You're going to go to the Muse with me?!"
Augustine shook his head and said, "It can only be sent near the Bell Fortress." β
She's content!
Augustine put her on the Ulm horse, then mounted it himself, and explained to the displeased clerk: "Tell Count Ibn that I need to be away for two weeks. β
"May I ask these unknown civil servants, do you have a family upbringing, do you have the necessary qualities of a courtier?" said the clerk, craned his neck angrily, and along the way, he and many of his court colleagues were more or less curious about the strange carriage at the end of the convoy, the strange face came from what family, the beautiful clerk with some privilege, when he and the Earl of Ibn were caressing each other in the warm carriage, he asked this question delicately, but unfortunately the foreign vice-minister, who was busy with his errands, was only full of annoyance and disdain, "That's just a thief who doesn't even have the status of a nobleman." So the clerk, who was originally good at observing words and feelings, decided that the young priest must be an unpleasant but lucky little person, and for such a mediocre role, as a celebrity next to the diplomatic underlord, he still needs to pay a little patience as big as a fingernail?
Augustine stared at the clerk who had to rely on his body to lay the groundwork for his future, smiled, did not delve into it, pulled the reins, and prepared to ride away.
The little queen muttered, "What a merciful archon. β
But the exasperated clerk couldn't believe that the little man really intended to put down the official state duties that even the Count was careful to treat, and hooked his fingers to let the two Templars, who were already eager to try, rule according to the law.
Augustine and the little queen, who were already in a terrible mood, were stopped by spears.
Earl Ibn and a group of courtiers watched the bustle from a distance.
Augustine said blandly: "Don't point your spear at the order, that's not interesting." β
At that moment, the Lich King stood near the carriage with two more "Grey Nests" in his hands that were darker than darkness, and the puppet threads bound the two bodies wearing the glorious armor of the Templars, and the sturdy bodies aged rapidly at a rate visible to the naked eye, eventually turning into two dry bones sitting on horses.
The distant Lich King's human-like fingers were flicked to remove the Ash Nest, and the bones were reduced to ashes. If the Lich King, who had been a duke-level puppeteer, was in that mood, it could have made two fresh skeleton knights turn over and dismount and dance.
And the clerk did not suffer too much, he was directly split in half by a blonde lame man with a golden short spear. What a fragile piece of porcelain.
Augustine, who had committed a blatant crime, did not leave immediately, but, on the contrary, waited for a moment with several times more patience than the clerk to make sure that no one was a fly anymore, and then left the small town with Elizabeth.
The frightened Earl of Ibn trembled and wrote an urgent letter with a quill to report the evil act to His Majesty the Emperor, only to receive a sharply worded letter of reprimand, with an explicit order that the subordinate agreement must wait for the return of the auxiliary to be signed, much to the astonishment of the foreign minister. In the anxious wait of Earl Ibn, who had lost his bed mate and was in danger of losing even the little trust of His Majesty the Emperor, Augustine crossed the Great Vesalian Ice Field, where Don Quixote the Elder had walked alone, and then through the Lydian Forest, which stretched for six hundred miles in darkness, and finally sent the little queen to the vicinity of the Bell Fortressγ
At night, a cold arc moon hangs over the heads of this pair of eccentric "tourists".
Two giant pythons more than ten meters long are wrapped around the big tree.
Augustine knelt on one knee, about the same height as Elizabeth, who was shrunk in his cloak and couldn't see her expression clearly, he took off the red gloves covered with gold silk on his hands, which was the last inheritance left to him by his mother, and put them on the little queen's arm, and then took out a Gabriel silver box, which contained a dark gold puppet that had been feasting recently, and handed it to Lori, who was stiff, and finally magically took out a small crystal crown he bought in the imperial capital from his arms, the size of his thumb, and the crystal material was not top-notch, so it was not expensive, but such a small thing made Augustine run all day in the Eugene Fuller trade areaγ Augustine said softly: "The young lady should be rich, because in this way, when she grows up, she will not be easily deceived by men." But that's all I can do for you, who made me a poor bastard, right?"
"When you get to the muse, don't fight with people casually, that's not what a lady should do, I've said this sentence countless times, you always have one ear in and one ear out, it's not good. Duke Maga the Black Sheep, Aube the Shorty, these old men, they will always be defeated by the years, you are already a princess in Augustine's heart, you see, this crown, I chose for you. β
"I'll clean your honeynest regularly, but don't keep those gorse foundations and quartz lipsticks waiting too long. Besides, Titan's "Flowers and Blood 3" is estimated to be published soon, as the most loyal reader, how can I not buy it at the first time?"
"I may just be a break in your long life, but I hope that this short period will give my little butler a sweet rest, even though my "lullaby" has been out of tune. β
"Alright, goodbye. β
Not only the miser who is stingy with Caesar Bourbon, but also the miser with roses and hugging, is different today.
Saying goodbye, he really strode away without looking back.
Our little queen, or princess Michel Baby, stood where she was, crying as hard as she could.
After crying intermittently for most of the night, and finally had no strength to grieve, little Elizabeth beckoned, and the Nile white python lowered her head, and she sat on top of her head, looking extremely small and lonely. Beside the white python was a black mamba king snake that was excited and manic because it was about to return home.
In the winter of 1064, Elizabeth, the bloody queen of the savage shaman, carried two mature golden subspecies and smashed two huge craters into the wall of the main wall of the Bell Fortress in the rain of arrows.
This has been interpreted by historians as a bloody revenge on the Kamiao Empire on the part of the Savage Continent.
On that day, the Bloody Empress sat quietly on top of the python's head, and the Empress Kamiao stood quietly on the main city wall.
Empress to Empress.
