"Thank you, Speaker, for the compliment. Catherine said with a shallow smile: "The speaker is so busy with official business, but he still took the time to come here just to meet us? ”

"Hahaha, how can I be so busy, Miss Catherine, you are exaggerating. The old mage stroked his beard and laughed, and every wrinkle on his face revealed kindness, making it difficult not to feel good for such an old man: "Not to mention that it is my honor to meet so many beautiful ladies." Moreover, such a big thing has happened on the Bout Plateau, and I, as the chairman of the council, of course can't help but come to see the situation, after all, this is still within Bout's scope, and Bout's business is my business. ”

"Indeed, you have a point. Catherine nodded with a serious face and agreed: "If it weren't for the urgency of time, if it would be too late to take action, we should really wait for you, so that when you come, many things can be left to you to think, so that our teammates don't need to face the life and death crisis now." We blame us for this, and if we can wait a little longer, maybe everything will be better. ”

"No, no, no, Miss Catherine, you are wrong to say that. Warrenson's pointed mage hat swayed with the shaking of his head, looking a little funny: "It's my responsibility this time, I'm too late, and you're going back and forth for our Bout, and Mr. Pennis, who is also hurting, has to argue with his old friend face to face." However, I don't quite understand why the friendship between Mr. Pannis and Master Fira for so many years suddenly broke out into such a fierce battle, is it because the matter you are tracking down has something to do with Master Fira's students?"

"I don't know. Catherine blinked and said blankly, "I'm also very strange, Pannith said that he was going to talk to Master Fira about something, but by the time we came over, a battle had already broken out. We don't know the specific reason, after all, we are just a foil, and the main tracing work is still done by Pannis. ”

"So that's the case, then there's no way. If you want to find out the reason, you can only ask the Archon Felek. Warren nodded, as if he fully believed Catherine's words, "But, do you know where Felek is?"

"Your Excellency, we want to find him too. We went to his room to look for him when we came here just now, but there was no one in the room, so maybe something else had gone out. Catherine was very embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, Your Excellency, we can't help anything, I'm really sorry." ”

"It's okay, I can't blame you guys, hehe. The old mage said regretfully: "I wanted to ask Felek about the conflict between the two masters, so as to mediate it, but it seems that it will not work." By the way, you've been into Felek's office. Did you find any clues? If there are clues, maybe I can find the reason. ”

"Your Excellency, are you questioning our morality?" said Catherine, with a look of dissatisfaction, "As a knight, how could I rummage through other people's houses while my master was away?"

"Ah, I'm sorry, Miss Knight, I was negligent on my part, I hope you don't mind. Warren smiled apologetically and said, "Since the ladies and Lord Moore don't know the specific situation, then I can only serve as the speaker." Try to go to Villek's room to find clues, and a few of them won't object. ”

"Of course not, we came to visit Master Fira's territory this time, and we were originally guests. How can we object to what you are doing?" Catherine smiled like a lady, "and I don't think Master Phila will object to your relationship, so there is no need for you to ask us. ”

"Hehe, of course, Fira and I have been friends for many years. Warrenson still had a kind look on his face. But he didn't want to go to Felek's office to look for clues, but just casually politely said a few words, and then said: "Several guests came from a distant place, and I, as the speaker, should have accompanied me throughout the whole process, but now that Mr. Pannis and Master Phila have been fighting, I am also very worried, so I have to lose my company first, and ask the mages over there, I'm really sorry." ”

"Ah, Your Excellency the Speaker, you are so polite. Catherine gave a chivalrous salute to the old mage, "It is we who should apologize, obviously we have caused you trouble." If you have something, then we won't bother you, don't worry about us, we can just wait here, thank you for your concern. ”

It wasn't until Warren turned to leave, walking among a bunch of mages in the distance, that Catherine let out a long breath, her back was already wet, and she couldn't tell if it was the rain or the sweat that had just seeped out. Wiping the water on her forehead, Catherine lowered her voice and said: "It seems that this matter has something to do with him, even if it is not directly related, at least this guy knows very well what these people want to do in the sands of time, or the whole plan is carried out with his tacit consent." ”

"Quite possibly. Moore still looked relaxed, caressing the strings of the Flaren, and said in a singing tone: "Otherwise, he wouldn't have had to rush from his own territory, well, maybe there were other reasons, for example, he thought that if Fira failed, maybe he could pick up a bargain and get some knowledge about time magic, these tower mages are the same, as long as they can gain knowledge, there is nothing they can't do." ”

"Whatever the reason, thank you very much, Mr. Moore. Catherine turned to face Moore and bowed seriously, and behind her, several maidens followed her in the same pose, and Catherine said sincerely: "If you weren't here, I'm afraid few of the five of us would have survived." ”

"You shouldn't thank me for that. Moore was not surprised by what Catherine said, he knew very well why Catherine thought she might die, so he just shook his head and said: "If he really attacks without scruples, I can only last a minute or two, and even if I sing the hymn of Yeda, it will only last one more minute at most." Therefore, even if I am added, it is not enough to make him feel jealous, and he cannot easily silence him. ”

"But your existence represents the elven powerhouses behind you. Catherine still thanked her seriously: "That's why he didn't dare to do it easily, so there's nothing wrong with thanking you." (To be continued.) )
