Hugo lowered his head, and the atmosphere was silent for a while. To read the latest chapters, please lock the biquge.info of Aishang Novels
Susan never considered herself a short-tempered and impulsive woman. But now, she can't wait to catch all the guys not far away and beat them up.
But just as she was about to question with a cold face, her sleeve was pulled by a small pale hand.
Susan turned her head, and the delicate porcelain girl lowered her long eyelashes, untied a blue cicada-shaped pendant from her neck, and whispered to her, "There's no need to conflict with them, use this as an alternative bet." ”
"Princess!" Hugo was in a hurry. A face was full of blood, and blood vessels were exposed.
"You are the captain of my guard, what can you do without a good horse?" Ellethia smiled slightly, and said softly to Hugo, "Although my pendant is worth more than your horse, it is only an ornament, and at the moment it is not as valuable as a horseshoe of the majestic mountain." Since we can't get anything else out of the moment, this is good. ”
Listening to Eretia and Hugo, Susan looked down at the pendant that was tucked into the palm of her hand.
This is an all-over turquoise pendant. The special material is as hard as steel, but warm as jade to the touch. The back of the cicada is engraved with intricate magic patterns as thin as a gossamer.
Susan knew that with a flick of the gadget in the air, it would fly and follow her. Until someone takes it off, he will obediently lie in the palm of his hand and retract his thin wings.
She also knew that it was a birthday present from Abraham, the president of the Magical Society, to the girl, and how much the girl liked the pendant.
The beautiful female swordsman had smiled countless times and pushed open the door to see the sunlight shining through the window, shining on the cicadas vibrating in mid-air, and on the side of the bed of the girl who was lying on the bed and refused to get up.
Cicadas hovered in the air, crystal clear and shiny. The girl on the bed was wearing white pajamas, spreading her long sun-like hair, hiding herself in a soft quilt, revealing her eyes to look at the cicadas for a while, and covering her face for a while, revealing a pair of white little feet. The cicadas, which need to sense the breath of their masters, fly back and forth.
Only later
The carefree girl grew older, and the smile on her face gradually decreased.
Susan, who still pushed open the door on time in the morning, saw the sunlight in front of the window, huddled on the chair with her knees crossed, quietly staring at the quiet girl in the distance.
The cicada hung quietly around the girl's neck and never flew again.
Susan, who wanted to convince Elethea, saw the girl's calm eyes and finally stopped talking.
Because she knows how cruel and fierce the struggle at the top of this empire is. The stormy situation and the peers who are full of laughter and enthusiasm on the surface, always with a hint of jealousy and a hint of schadenfreude in their eyes and ready to watch a good show, make the girl far more mature than her age, and far stronger than her weak appearance.
She is a lovable little girl, but she is also an admirable little princess.
Susan turned around and walked up to the waiting nobles, and said coldly, "I'm sorry, my lords, but Xiongshan is the mount of the Hugo Knight. As the chief of the princess's bodyguard, his duty is to protect the princess's safety. ”
As she spoke, the female swordsman spread out her palms: "This pendant is worth about 20,000 gold and is worth about 20,000 gold and is a piece of Abraham ** Master spent several months making it himself." I don't think anyone will object to using it to make a bet on a war horse, right?"
20,000 gold lulangs, made by Abraham himself, a princess's pendant
These key words immediately captured the hearts of everyone present. Quite a few people looked at the pendant, full of surprise and greed.
Even if it is a nobleman, 20,000 gold Lulang is a lot of wealth.
Moreover, it was made by Abraham himself. Put it at auction, and the price will definitely be more than that.
"Since the princess has compassion for his subordinates," Monk Moon, who had been surrounded by everyone, bowed indifferently, "Then so be it." ”
The knights and nobles beside him nodded in agreement.
For them, the bet they made was just a good horse worth two or three thousand gold lulangs, and since the monks all nodded, there was nothing to say.
In terms of status, the monks and the bishops of the regions are a little lower than those of the nearby territories, but the monks who come from the imperial capital and are personally appointed by the Pope are not ordinary small nobles who can be offended.
This time, the hunting gambling tournament was divided into four houses.
Monk Moon and his Knights of the Church, as well as George of the Templar Order, were one family. The princess and her royal guards are a family. The remaining two are Matthew of Viscount Wenger and the local landlord Baron Blaine's family.
Because Baron Brian was away from home, it was the Baroness, his son Lord Rice, and his daughter Bernie, who hurried home from the church, to take part in the hunt.
As the low-ranking nobles of the two remote regions, neither the Wenger family nor the Borabel family were prepared to fight with the papal royal family to win or lose. The meaning of welcoming as a companion is much greater than the desire to win.
Left and right is just a good horse of two or three thousand gold, although it is valuable, but it can still afford it.
Moreover, in this gambling competition, in fact, the winner has long been predestined. Brother Moon and his group of knights, naturally. Of the four teams, they are the strongest. If nothing else, the Templar George alone was unbeatable. If there is a large demonic beast, I am afraid that this Lord George will clean it up alone.
What's more, among the many hunting dog demon pets here, in addition to the two first-level [Wind Wolves] cultivated by the horse, only George has a third-level demon pet [Sword Tiger] that does not leave him.
And everyone else, it's just a hound.
"In that case," said Les, who was next to him, looking at Monk Moon and Templar George, and said to Susan, "Miss Susan, please get to know your guide, and in a few moments, the game will begin." ”
Susan turned her head to see a dwarfed hunter with a sharp beak approaching him, nodding his head and his eyes wandering.
Looking at the guide on Moon's side, Susan only felt a rush of fire rushing upward.
Of the four present, Baron Pollabel's family naturally did not need a guide, and there was already a full-time hunter in the castle, who was responsible for hunting and driving out wild beasts that were dangerous to the farmland and pasture. Although the Wenger family is not a landlord, they are no strangers to the mountains and forests in the south, and the hunters who follow them are also competent.
There are no hunters, just Moon and the princess.
The hunter standing on Moon's side was strong and strong, and his fighting spirit had reached the level of fourth. The leather robe he wears, the bow on his back, and the hunting bag and weapon hanging from his waist all indicate that this is a hunter who is well versed in jungle hunting skills and has a lot of harvest on weekdays.
And assigned to the princess was a hunter who had no fighting spirit, was short and weak, and was dressed in tatters. Just look at his erratic eyes and know that he has no self-confidence!
Susan clenched her teeth and was about to turn around and leave, but saw a big-headed boy walking from the jungle not far away.
Susan's eyes narrowed slightly.
At this moment, the young man carried a bow and a sword on his back, an axe in his waist, and a fat dog with a straight tail at his feet. He was looking at this side with a stunned expression.
Almost instantly, Susan made up her mind.
"Since His Excellency Moon has already chosen the guide first, it is estimated that there is no suspense in the outcome," Susan stabbed Moon coldly and said, "We don't care, if we want to choose, I will simply choose him!"
Susan's hand was raised, and the white jade fingers suddenly pointed at the big-headed boy.
Everyone turned their heads to look. The group of servants and knights next to him suddenly erupted in laughter.
"Roy?"
"Big head?"
The Baroness and her daughter, Bernie, cried out at once.
Hearing this name, Father Moon's eyes instantly turned into shining blades, and they shot extremely sharp at the black-haired boy...... Ask for recommendations, send a book for a week, and the total recommendation will be 30,000 soon!。
