Nina and Egret are not muddy characters, and the magic guide train to the Shenghui Empire was scheduled early the next morning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Shenghui is a religious country. The highest administrative body is the Celestial Radiance, the armed apparatus is the Knights of the Radiance, and the Pope is the supreme leader of the country.
Bishops and priests are the administrators of the different places, and the country of the Holy Radiance is vast and multi-ethnic. However, accidents and chaos were rare, and the nobility was a merchant group or a military family under the religious system.
Because of a common faith, these people came together. The current Shenghui Empire was formed. There is a high degree of centralization of power, but each pope is a respected leader elected under a belief system, and there is little chaotic management and undesirable policies. It's a pretty good empire.
Based on the quality of Illion, it can be seen how outstanding the education system of the Shenghui Empire is. Whether it is the study of ancient science and technology or the collection of people's centripetal forces, it is far beyond other empires with comprehensive management.
"Why did you come along?" Egret looked at the introduction of the Divine Radiance Empire, and at the same time looked at Miss Fiona, who was sitting with Nina in the grand seat. said with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
Fiona gave the egret a roll of her eyes, "What's your business?" You're so smart, why don't you guess for yourself. ”
Of course, Egret guessed that the reason for Fiona's follow-up was nothing more than her personality against the family's tying of herself to Garcia in this form. It is said that Garcia has a good demeanor, and there is nothing to say about his character and force, but Fiona looks very dissatisfied. Egret just knew that Fiona didn't have a crush on Garcia, but just instinctively wanted to be free.
If a girl really doesn't like someone, then the expression and statement will be completely different, for example: if you tell a girl, "So-and-so boy is very nice, what do you think?" The girl says in a cold tone, "Can you say something serious?" Or I don't think about these things at all, etc., it is enough to prove that the girl really doesn't like it.
But if a girl says, "What, I have nothing to do with him, how do I know?" Who would know that kind of guy!, etc., it completely proves that this girl has a certain understanding and affection for this man, but because she doesn't want to change her current state, she will show that she doesn't care on the surface.
Fiona is exactly that.
"Forget it. I'm too lazy to mind the affairs of your little two. Egret continued to take the introduction and read it, "The propaganda of the Shenghui Empire is all about religion, and I rarely see the news or other reports. ”
"Shenghui itself rarely publishes news. Nina began, "Their propaganda apparatus is full of religious believers, and their relationship is different from that of other empires. In other words, the environment is simple. ”
Is it simple? The egret remembered the religions in his own world, none of which were simple systems. However, in this world, faith can empower and protect itself, and it is a miracle of reality that can be seen with both eyes, and it is not difficult to understand that the situation is different.
The speed of the magic train is very fast, and in the case that most people cannot take the airship, the magic train is the main fast-moving vehicle on the mainland. The magic guide train that has been developed for hundreds of years has become more and more advanced, and the speed is getting faster and faster, and the magic guide train is mainly divided into three levels, the first level is the ordinary class, which carries a lot of people, and basically stops as long as there is a station. The second class is the premium class, which carries 30% fewer people than the regular class, and only stops at major stations. The third is the class of the egret, the special train class, which in principle only carries noble passengers to the same place. With the effect of drastically reducing the number of passengers, more service cars have been opened to go straight to the destination. Depending on demand, there may only be a few stops.
Fiona's stateroom was actually a luxuriously renovated carriage that was furnished like the royal suite in a large hotel.
Three bedrooms, huge shower room, large living room, bar counter, and even a separate kitchen. This makes the egret happy.
As a food lover, Egret hasn't cooked for a while. However, after trying Ambra's specialties and the seafood dishes in Bancor, the egrets have long had itchy hands.
Even in the face of Fiona's skeptical eyes, the egret was not stage frightened. I started making garlic shells.
On Earth, it's scallops, but in the other world, it's even bigger shell seafood. This is several times larger than a scallop, but the style of seafood is similar, and it is not easy to prepare. In order to get rid of the smell of the sea, the chefs of this other world have also put a lot of effort into it.
The egret found a seasoning similar to garlic, which was similar to black tea, churning out of the ingredients in the pharmacy. However, the effect is very good, garlic from another world has a stronger ability to remove fishy odors, and the taste is rich but not violent, which is an excellent condiment.
At this time, making garlic shells is also like a fish in water.
Of course, this is at best a fresh food, and if you want to be full, you can't rely on such food. The egret also prepares bird meat, which is similar to that of a chicken. At this time, the spicy dishes are sliced, mixed with their own wine, pepper, sugar, salt and monosodium glutamate, and stewed together, and those who are familiar with cooking may have guessed that yes, the egret is copying the method of braised chicken.
There is only meat, and there are vegetables.
The form of stir-fry is not available in this world. When Egret stir-fried mushroom-like mushroom vegetables with animal oil, the fragrance finally surprised Fiona.
"You really know how to cook!" Fiona exclaimed. "Or is it this novel way, what kind of method is this? is the Kazan Empire's latest way of cooking?"
"Hmph~" Egret was very stunned, "This is Egret's original method! ”
"Cut~" Fiona replied unhappily, but her eyes did not leave the egret. "It's the first time I've seen a nobleman who can cook. But that's fine, Nina won't have to suffer. Speaking of which, you're really different from her last Guardian Knight. ”
"Siriny?" asked Egret as she cooked, "Do you know her?"
Fiona turned her head to look at Nina's room, where she was still sorting out her weapons and armor, and she couldn't get out for a while, before she turned around and said, "Of course I know." After all, that guy snatched my Nina. ”
"What kind of person is Sirini? She died for Nina, I would like to know the details. The egret pretended not to care.
"Sacrifice?" Fiona looked at the egret with a strange expression, "I see, it turns out that you are not a nobleman who is officially recognized by the royal family, otherwise, if you are arranged as Nina's knight, I will definitely tell you." ”
"Well, I'm Nina's chosen knight, but tell me, do you mean there's something going on?"
Fiona stared at the egret fiercely for a while, and finally sighed helplessly, "I feel that even if I don't tell you, you will know eventually." And you really should know about this situation. so as not to run into trouble in the future. ”
"Silini is not dead. That's the argument used to deceive Nina. In fact, in the original robbery incident, Sirine was one of the main members. ”
"Huh?!" Egret almost didn't grasp the pot under his hand, "This is a bit of a lot of information." Are you sure you're right?"
"Nonsense. Fiona replied viciously, "I'm not interested in making such jokes." ”
"Do you know about the Dark Souls?" Fiona asked.
I know DARK SOULS ... The egret looked at Fiona with a blank expression, expressing his ignorance.
"Okay. It was one of the underground criminal organizations of the Ambra Empire. They orchestrated a number of kidnappings by descendants of nobles, including Nina's kidnapping. Fiona said, "Sirini is one of the members of this organization, in order to get close to Nina, she planned several years in advance, and finally stuned Nina when she went out to practice with Divine Radiance. Prepared to threaten Ambra to pay the ransom, but the Sword Emperor of Nien had been following Nina at that time. Therefore, the intention of this group of criminals was not realized, not only did a few culprits die, but the entire organization was basically uprooted. It's just that at that time, it was escaped by Xilini. ”
It is estimated that he studied with Nina in the Sword Emperor, and he is very familiar with the power of the Sword Emperor, so he made a decision to flee immediately when he saw the Sword Emperor, otherwise it is estimated that he would not be able to escape under the nose of the master.
"In order to prevent Nina from tracking down and encountering danger again. Or maybe it was a bit of a cover for his mistake in choosing a knight, in short, he didn't tell Nina the truth in the end, but just said that Xilini sacrificed in order to save her. ”
"After all. Fiona concluded, "If you don't say that, with Nina's character, she will definitely follow it to the end, and in the end, she will definitely be bruised because of the truth." ”
Makes sense. It's Fiona, Nina's best friend. Anyway, how did Fiona know such a hidden thing, Nina herself could be hidden, and the egret didn't believe that anyone would kindly tell Fiona.
"The Luthers are in charge of Ambra's intelligence services. Fiona rolled her eyes, but she could see the strange look in the egret's eyes.
"That's the case. The egret nodded and continued to ask. "Then you must also know what happened to Nina's mentor, Sword Emperor Nien. I'm right. ”
"How could it be. I am not a prophet. Fiona gave the egret a white look.
But the egret is not so easy to fool, "Speaking of which, you have been keeping an eye on Nina's whereabouts, and you will know as soon as Nina returns to Ambra. Don't talk nonsense about getting managers to pay attention to entry information or something, that thing is more secure than a bank safe. ”
"Although you are Nina's best friend. But you've become much more focused than friends in general. You're wary of me because of the person who suddenly appeared next to Nina in the bedroom, isn't it?"
"Besides, the main reason why you suddenly told me about Xilini today is also because when the Garcia family was helping, I saved Nina regardless of my life, so you choose to believe me, isn't it?"
The egret stirs up the pot and puts it on the table. "So, Fiona Rudd, you should have another identity. I don't know what it is, but it's definitely not an identity that would be bad for Nina. ”
"And you're in control of the intelligence. Egret turned to look at Fiona, "So don't say it again, you don't know anything about the situation of the Sword Emperor Nion in the first place. ”
"You're a nuisance. Fiona sighed helplessly, "Too smart guys don't like girls." ”
"Well, for me, the first priority is the task assigned by Nina. As for whether it's flattering or not, I don't care about that. The egret smiled wryly. "Miss Fiona, I know you really care about Nina, so trust me. I'll judge the impact of my actions based on the intelligence. You don't need to worry about me doing anything dangerous with Nina. ”
"I'll talk about that next time. Fiona turned to look at the door, and by this time Nina had pushed the door open.
Seeing Fiona and Egret looking at her at the same time, Nina smiled, "What did you do today?"
