Chapter 149: The Explosion
The two guys finished masturbating on this palatial avenue in a grand manner, and Robert remembered to get down to business, "Boss, what do you say?"
Stannis clapped his hands, very annoyed, "Don't mention it, you know that it's the guy named Pedro who is in charge now, right?"
Roberto nodded, "I've heard of this kid, who has been rising to the throne rapidly in the past few months, but he is a popular person for the next duke." ”
"That's it, this kid!" I told him what happened in the territory, but I didn't expect this guy to laugh at me with his family situation, and told me not to make any small moves, is this something!" Stannis became more and more angry, and finally the loud voice was so loud that the passers-by on the road looked at him from time to time.
Robert hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, and looked around with a panicked expression, "Boss, be quiet, there are spies from the Duke's family all around, if you say bad things about their family, you will be denounced if you don't do it!"
Stannis also calmed down, he breathed a long sigh of relief, tried to extinguish the anger in his chest, and continued: "In short, there is no hope for the Duke, and now we can only rely on ourselves. ”
Rob nodded, in fact, he knew and knew the result before he came, how could a shrewd family like Garcia who relied on power to get to the top waste manpower and material resources for such a trivial matter.
The two of them walked towards the lower city in high spirits, because they could not get anything done, and it was inconvenient for them to stay here, so they were ready to return to the hotel and set off.
On both sides of the main road from the upper city back to the lower city, there are many magnificent and exquisite buildings, although the color is mainly black, supplemented by white, but the architects still strive to construct it skillfully, the black fog city has a history of nearly 600 years, in the long years, the war and natural disasters did not destroy her, but made her more outstanding temperament, worthy of the king of the city.
Robert, on the other hand, volunteered to be a narrator, telling Stannis some of the history of the sights.
"Boss, did you know that before the Garcia family ascended the throne of Duke Tanis, the Duke's throne was firmly in the hands of the Quintus family, and it was they who established the city. ”
Stannis felt a little wrong, why did this guy tell himself these things, did he forget that he was Stannis Justin, and he should be familiar with the past of these nobles?
But Robert still said to himself, "But twenty years ago, the Quintus family, which was as dense as the branches and leaves of a big tree, suddenly began to wither, and not only did the eight children of the old duke of the main family die of illness within a month, but even the side branches died out. ”
Does this kind of thing have anything to do with him! Stannis was confused, and he didn't have any blood relationship with this Quintus family, so he didn't have to think about becoming a duke by blood.
"In short, it is rumored that the heir of the Quintus family is related to the current Duke of Garcia......" Robert did not say any more, he suddenly raised his hair and laughed, "Boss, you see that these people just like to make some conspiracy theories!"
Stannis was taken aback by the sudden change in his attitude, there is nothing wrong with this kid!
"By the way!" Stannis interrupted, "I saw the Flod's carriage just now, and my little Anne has also come to the Duke's mansion, does she live here?"
Robert became interested, "Oh~~ Boss, is your fiancée here to secretly have a tryst with the lover~~ Oops!"
Stannis's iron fist opened a bag in the little brother's head, and he didn't like it when someone said he was wearing a green hat.
"Be serious!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Robert hurriedly admitted his mistake and said: "Anne should be here for vacation, the Flode family has a large property in the north of Uptown!"
Stannis couldn't help but admire, he had so many houses and worked hard to start a business with racking his brains all day long, and he had long been happy to be a charter boy and wait for his sister to die.
But Robert's words only answered why Anne was here, but did not explain why she entered the Duke's mansion, did she really NT herself!
Stannis was very anxious, although it was a normal time for this world to mess around, but as a traditional good man, he still couldn't accept this setting, and he was ready to find a chance to knock on the side next time.
Then, his younger brother pointed to a large dome building with a very artistic atmosphere, "Boss, boss, you see, that is the Grand Theater of the Duchy of Tanis, and there is a very poignant story about its origin!"
Stannis wasn't really interested at all, but he knew his little brother would still talk.
Legend has it that this grand theater was built by the third duke of the Quintus family, when he was already a young man, he met a stunning singer, and the two quickly fell in love, but because the duke already had a wife, and because of age and status, they could not be united, so the duke could only build this magnificent opera house for her to perform in it, and appeared in the first row of seats every night, until he was old and could never get out of bed again, and the singer also ended the curtain and stopped singing for anyone. What a poignant love story!"
In the end, Robert was moved by himself and shed two lines of exaggerated tears.
But Stannis didn't hear the poignant, but it felt familiar.
The two walked past the Principality Theatre, and from inside came a soprano voice, and it looked like there was a show going on inside.
"Hey, this sound is really as melodious as a nightingale's cry, time seems to stop at this moment, wonderful~~" Stannis closed his eyes and savored it.
Robert looked at him like a talking monkey, "I didn't expect you to understand this kind of elegant opera, boss!"
"Of course. Stannis glanced at him proudly, no matter how he said it, he was also a top student of 985, and when he was in school, he went to the art department to cultivate his sentiments, and he watched the girls in the dance class.
Just when he wanted to pretend to be a little more forced, such as saying the difference between L, C, and R sounds.
After a loud 'boom', Stannis was tossed to the ground by the shock wave from the explosion.
The explosion was heard from inside the opera house, and the melodious soprano was replaced by a scream. Gravel poured into the streets, pedestrians and carriages dodged, but Stannis, who was closest to him, was not so lucky.
When he struggled to stand up, he found that out of the dark explosion gap, a female mage in a purple robe walked out!
And this explosion was undoubtedly caused by her.
