Chapter 22: The Past
In fact, the reason why the egret suspected the captain was not as complicated as the analysis. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info After Nina smelled the scent of Fen Lotus in the gaffer's room, Egret made the time elves pay special attention to this.
Later, it was found that in addition to his own group of people who entered the room, only the captain was left with the fragrance of Fen Lian. The fragrance on his body is more than that on his body. It was after this discovery that the egret pointed all the clues to the captain.
"So, I'm not joking. The egret explained to Yulina and Nina.
"I finally understand why such a beautiful and noble girl as Nina would choose you as her knight, Lord Egret, to find the captain's suspicion from such a small place, and find the murderer in less than one night, which is really remarkable. Yulina said in admiration.
With so many clues and no real murderer can be found, I'm afraid that detective novels will be read in vain. Egret smiled, the status given by Nina is very noble, but it is not because Egret really meets any standards or requirements, but Nina thinks that other ways are more troublesome.
Speaking of which, people, including Op, are curious about Nina's identity, and since the girl didn't explain it, everyone wouldn't ask such a question. So although the egret is also very curious, he can only guess what kind of successor Nina is like a big noble, and the specifics will only be known when Nina explains it one day.
Egret and Nina are finally free and can go back to their rooms to rest. Egret lives in a small bed in the outer room, while Nina lives in the large room inside. This is the advantage of the suite, but the price is indeed a little higher.
Don't look at the airship flight mission can earn thousands of carts, more than 80% will be handed over to the company, not only airship maintenance requires a lot of money, personnel costs are not a small number. The service and escort personnel on the airship, including the management, will not be paid too much for a year.
It's no wonder that the captain owes 105 Carter and will act as an accomplice.
Anyway, I still owe 55 Carter, although Nina looks like a local tyrant who doesn't care. The egret touched his nose and stopped thinking about it. After changing into her pajamas, Egret is ready to enjoy the benefits of a stateroom and a good night's sleep in a luxurious queen bed.
But before the egret could lie down, there was a knock on the door of the small room.
It's so late, who's going to come?
The egret was stunned for a moment, and opened the door, and it was Nina standing outside the door.
At this time, Nina had already changed her dress, and now she was wearing only a thin pajamas. Because of long-term exercise, Nina's figure is exquisite, and her pajamas can't hide it at all.
The egret felt his mouth dry for a while. It's really easy to think crookedly when you run to your room at this time.
However, Nina herself has no self-consciousness, because she is very powerful, and no one or affairs have disobeyed her since she was a child. So Nina has developed a character who doesn't care about everything, which is not good or bad, but sometimes it is easy to make people cry and laugh.
"Is there something going on?" Egret stepped out of the way, and Nina walked straight into the room.
"Hmm. Nina finished speaking, and there was a clear hesitation on her face. It seemed that there was something difficult to speak, and the two stood for about ten seconds, and Nina finally spoke: "You, you're actually very smart, right?"
What kind of problem is this? The second monk of the egret is confused, but if he wants to say that he is smart, he is not at all, but when he loves to read mystery novels, he has developed a little habit of reasoning.
"It's not smart, it's just a little personal experience with such incidents. Egret thought of a plausible statement.
Looking at Nina, who had fallen silent again, Egret asked strangely, "Is there anything we need to discuss?"
"Hmm. Nina didn't seem to have figured out what to say, "I've always wanted to know the answer to one thing. ”
Nina looked at the egret, as if waiting for him to do something to answer.
The corners of the egret's mouth twitched, he knew that if he was too troublesome or didn't take a stand, Nina would definitely be in such a daze.
"Well, if there's any trouble anyway, just tell me and listen to it. I can't guarantee anything else, but as long as I can do it, I'll definitely do my best. ”
Nina's eyes lit up and she looked much better.
"When I was a child, my family sent me to my mentor to learn swordsmanship. Nina said, "At that time, I was just learning etiquette swordsmanship for a while, but for some reason, the mentor left me. Since then, I have been a close disciple of my guru. ”
Of course, it's because your talent is too high. Egret thought to himself that your mentor would be pleased to be able to elevate his swordsmanship skills to the realm of a near-master at this age.
"For the next 7 years, I studied with my mentor. But three years ago, when I returned home and returned to my guru, he was in his residence and had been seriously injured and passed away shortly after. ”
Nina said this, with a sad expression on her face.
"The mentor said that he didn't have much time at that time, and taught me the ultimate meaning of the projection sword, and on the morning of the seventh day, after giving me the blessing of the fairy, he passed away. Because I always think about my mentor there, I also left my residence. Later, I met Uncle Locke in Free City, who helped me register as an explorer and took me to eat the famous Porter cuisine in the desert. Since the Mentor didn't say why he was seriously injured or what happened during my absence, I accepted Uncle Locke's invitation, saying that if he wanted to get information, the Explorer's Guild was the best option. ”
This makes a lot of sense, and explorers are all over the continent. With the effect of intelligence sharing, there is very little news that can escape the eyes of the Explorers Guild. This is the same reason as Egret choosing to join the Explorer's Guild to find Baoyu.
"Over the course of three years, I explored a lot of ruins and finally got A-class clearance. However, even after searching for information from the Explorers' Guild, there is still no information about the time when the mentor was injured. Nina paused, looked at the egret, and then said slowly, "I'm not good at doing things like you. ”
Nina refers to the reasoning and judgment of the egret, "I hope you can help me, I want to know the cause of the Mentor's death, I want to know what happened to the Mentor." ”
"Is your mentor the Sword Emperor Nion?" the egret remembered what Nina had said about his legacy.
"Yes. The mentor is a very powerful master professional, and he has also reached the level of the unity of all laws at the master stage. There were few opponents, but in the end they were seriously wounded and died. Nina's expression was gloomy.
"So the opponent must be very strong, that's why you're so power-seeking. The egret finally understood the reason why Nina was constantly seeking power.
At this stage of the master, there are also three levels. The level of heaven and earth, the level of ten thousand laws, and the level of sanctification. The level of heaven and earth refers to the master's own battle qi condensed to the extreme, which can communicate with the force of heaven and earth, and the moves released are all with the power of heaven and earth. For example, a sword stabbed by an ordinary person must meet the rules of the rule that the sword is strong, and when it reaches the level of the ten thousand laws, the master has his own original law, and he will create the rule that the less force, the stronger the sword power. Of course, this is just an analogy, the real Ten Thousand Laws level is much more powerful than this statement. And the so-called sanctification, this level is no longer mortal, even in the eyes of the master, sanctification, is definitely a god-like existence, moving mountains and smashing the sea, crushing cause and effect.
"Because I know the gap, I have to gain strength. There is only one stage between the master and the elite, but they are a different existence entirely. The so-called master-level demonized mecha has only reached the master level in terms of energy reflection, and the real combat skills and thinking are just ordinary elite levels. Nina continued, "The true master is not as simple as the demonized mecha we are facing. ”
The egret understands this. In today's evaluation of masters, no matter which one they are, they must reach the level of master in terms of strength, speed, and combat spirit to be recognized as a master. Not counting the Freedom Masters, there are also four Masters on the entire continent.
"So you're saying that I need to help you find the murderer who once seriously injured the master of the Ten Thousand Laws level and caused the death of the Sword Emperor Nion. And understand the reason why he hurt Sword Emperor Nien, right?"
This subject may not be as easy as finding Baoyu, but the egret looked at Nina, this was the first time that Nina had asked someone else so solemnly, asking the egret to find the truth of the matter. Faced with the beautiful girl's request, the egret did not hesitate at all: "Don't worry, I will do my best to help you find the truth together." Trust me to find the answer for you. ”
"It's been three years, and you're really confident. Nina smiled faintly, this change was the first time in front of the egret. It shows that Nina has really begun to recognize the egret.
"Well, of course. To say why. The egret also smiled slightly, "I'm Nina's noble knight." ”
The quiet flight time passed quickly, and it took a total of three days to fly to the starry capital of Ambra, except for the first day with a little rush, and the next two days were peaceful. Op occasionally came in to say hello, and Yulina was still writing new songs.
It is said that this new song will praise the egret who solved the incident on the airship and saved Yulina's life.
However, Nina and the Egret master and servant duo did not have an ear to hear it immediately, and early on the morning of the third day, the Egret packed its luggage, stood behind Nina, and went to the lower floor together to wait for landing.
Since that night, the two have tacitly agreed not to talk about the truth about the cause of Nina's mentor's death. Egret needs more intelligence, and Nina needs more strength. It will take time to make up for it, but both are confident. Just as the Egret trusts Nina's strength, Nina also trusts Egret's reasoning and judgment abilities. None of them thought that at some point in the future, they would fall into a crisis that would endanger the entire continent because of this incident.
