The nights of the water season are always cold and dark.

The silver moon was obscured by dense clouds, and only a dim halo was reflected in the sky. The faint moonlight could not even outline the shadows. The square of the town of Blinolne is dark and you can't see your fingers, and the cathedral in the middle of the square is lit with many lighting braziers, like towering lighthouses, lighting hope and direction in the deep darkness of the night – tonight, night.

The four paladins guarding the doors of the church surrounded the half-human-high brazier, whispering to each other against the clammy mist, occasionally looking down the streets not far away.

The aristocracy enjoyed a rich nightlife only at home, where there was a warm fireplace, bright candlelight, fine food, caring attendants, intimate companions and comfortable large beds. At nightfall, the lively church square becomes empty and deserted, except for the patrols of the Night's Watch in Blinor City, who pass by the square area and stop at the church gate to bake their cloaks and chat with the paladins.

However, from the time the sun went down to the present, the paladins on night duty did not see the torches of the patrol. They talked a lot, and they all felt that something big was going on tonight.

The crisp sound of horses' hooves and the clatter of wheels against bluestone slabs confirmed the paladin's suspicions. In the darkness, a four-wheeled carriage pulled by two ponies slowly approached, stopped in front of the steps of the cathedral, and a sword-wearing attendant jumped from the open-air seat behind the carriage, ignoring the church guards who came forward to inquire, holding a crystal lantern in one hand and gently placing the golden stepping board in the other hand at the door of the carriage.

Instead of reprimanding the attendants for their rudeness, the four paladins stood with their heads held high and lined up in a guard of honor to greet the distinguished guests.

In the inner city of Brienol, only the core members of the royal family and the three guardians are eligible to ride in a four-wheeled carriage. The corner of the wall of the carriage is painted with roses, and the identity of its owner is unknown.

Two tall and slender aristocratic women stepped out of the carriage one after another. Their whole bodies are wrapped in hooded cloaks, which makes it difficult to see their true faces, but the unique rhythm of each walk highlights the peerless temperament. Especially the woman in the lead, the place she stepped on seemed to be the center of the world, and the towering cathedral seemed to be actively approaching her.

The paladins bowed their heads and guarded the two noble ladies as they climbed upward, without any other thought in their hearts than awe.

"I'm here to receive the dignitaries, go back and be on guard, and don't let anyone else near the cathedral. ”

A bald-haired and eyebrowless paladin quietly appeared, and the vision of time and space chaos disintegrated in an instant. The four night holy warriors breathed a sigh of relief and saluted respectfully, "Obey." Lord Tournans. ”

"Your Highness. Please come with me. His Majesty awaits you in the Confession Room in the Wing Chamber. Tournans bowed his head, looked up at the dark alleys of the square, and muttered in a low voice, "Is it necessary to make such a big move......?

"Lead the way. Sylvia said lightly.

Turning, Tournans turned to lead the way, muttering as he went, "A few nights of work have been in vain...... Whatever you talk about, I'm going to listen. ”

The trio descended a spiral staircase to the lowest floor of the cathedral, which was confronted by a smooth stone wall with an oak door. Turnans pushed open the wooden door, and the interior was simply furnished, with only a table and two chairs, and the soft light of the butter candles. Pope Clement, dressed in a white robe, sat in a chair and smiled at the two guests.

"The abruptness of the come, disturbing the crown rested. ”

Sylvia untied her hood, revealing her delicate face, and walked into the cramped secret room with her female companion. Tournans was the last to enter, shutting the wooden door with his hands on his chest, leaning against the wall with a "I'll stay here" expression.

Clement glanced at the legendary paladin helplessly, and instead beckoned, "Your Highness Sylvia, please take a seat." Then he said apologetically to another lady, "Lady York, welcome to Blinauer Cathedral." It's just that there aren't too many chairs here. ”

Caterina lifted her skirt and saluted elegantly, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please forgive Caterina for taking the liberty of visiting." ”

Clementia nodded and smiled at Sylvia, "I plan to leave for the Holy See in ten days. I hope you won't delay me too long. ”

"It won't take too long. ”

Sylvia looked at the half of the butter candle on the table, nodded and said, "At most, it's time to change a candle...... Before we talk, I would like to ask Her Majesty for a test. ”

"You ask. Clement said mildly.

"Archbishop Oleg is your classmate's friend, he has been in charge of the Borui Kingdom and the Eastern Alliance for more than 22 years, so he must be aware that the Borui Kingdom has recently developed a new energy potion?" Sylvia asked with a smile.

Clement pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The academic affairs of the Eastern League have always been in the hands of the inquisition, and Oleg is only in name. As for the new energy potion of the Borui Kingdom, we have indeed heard of it. But we don't know the specific formula, only that it uses several medicinal materials unique to the Arret Plateau. ”

The scholars and priests of the College of Cardinals were keen to study potions for ordinary people, and were not interested in the energy potions and refining potions reserved for knights and nobles. They do not deliberately spy on relevant information, nor do they easily disclose the research results of the liege to others.

Clement tactfully expressed his attitude, but he was keenly aware of Caterina's sudden relaxation, and he couldn't help but be suspicious. Sylvia didn't hide it, and said, "I have a new energy potion here, and I'm sure Your Majesty will be interested in trying it out." ”

Katerina took out a golden flask and placed it on the table. Sylvia explained, "Because of time, I only brought a small half of the potion, and half a candle was enough time for the crown to experience its extraordinary effects. ”

Clement picked up the crystal bottle, checked it with the Detection Divine Technique, then opened the cap and poured the gold-like potion into his mouth.

"It's ......"

Pure fighting energy continued to pour out of his stomach, and Clement collected his mind and used his fighting energy with all his might. Time passed minute by minute, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw a new candle on the table. Tournans asked with concern, "Your Majesty, my intuition tells me that the potion is good for you. How? What does it do?"

Clement shook his head in reply, furrowed his eyebrows, and fell into deep thought.

Half of the new candle burned again, the Pope knocked on the table, stretched his brow and asked, "What do you want?"

Sylvia said gently, "Your Majesty, you are well aware of Sophia's state and situation. Sophia is about to visit the fortress of Harlotus and invite the Knights of Radiance to expand the barbarian trade. As she and her subordinates pass through the Kingdom of Dord, I want the church to keep her safe. After all, the Duoduo had murdered one of the Grand Knights of the Gambis. ”

"Who did the Kingdom of Dordor murder?" Tournans asked, wide-eyed.

Katerina replied: "Austin Buryatia." ”

"Austen, isn't he being ......" Tournans first showed a look of sudden realization, and then kept silent, maintaining a deep and serious demeanor, and said proudly: "Almost exposed." When Sylvia is gone, it's not too late to ask the crown. ”

Clement was silent. "I assure you that Sophia will dissolve the Wimbledon Chamber of Commerce in 20 years, and that it will be good for the bigger picture," Sylvia added. At least, I respect the Holy See more than Friedrich, don't I?"

"Ten years at most. Clement shook his head.

Sylvia chuckled and said, "We need fifteen years." Seeing that Clement still shook his head, he added: "The problem of the Borui Kingdom will be solved by me." In addition, Sofia will invest heavily in the public carriages of Dordo and Sassan. ”

Clement thought for a moment and finally nodded: "Well, it can't be more than fifteen years...... And here's just one example. If there is a next time, you won't have to look for me. ”

"Yes. Sylvia stood up and saluted, "I have something to do, so I'm leaving." ”

Sylvia and Caterina leave the chamber. Tournans listened with his ears pricked up for a moment, then leaned in front of Clement and looked at him with a blank eye.

"That little half bottle of potion resonated with me with a new elemental bit. The Pope explained helplessly.

"Hmm. Tournans touched the shiny door of his head, circled the room a few times, and said, "I roughly understand...... And then what?"

"The five families of Sylvia, Auguste, and Bore, including us, need to work together to build a new balance with the Knights of Radiance. ”

"Hmm...... Specifically?"

"It's time for you to go to bed. ”

"Teacher, I can't sleep. Tournans pleaded.

Clement shook his head and smiled, "Sylvia intends to find a path to the Golden Rank for Sophia. Some people benefit from it, and some people pay for it. I can guess how things will go, but guessing doesn't mean the outcome. Because no one can control all the changes, things can get better or worse. If we get too involved, we will lose the room to turn around, and we may even become pawns in the hands of others...... I don't want to know what Sylvia does, so she doesn't have to talk to us. ”

"Turnans, you have to remember that the position is the bottom line. We know too much about it, which is equivalent to changing our own position and losing the value of cooperation. ”

Sylvia beckoned to the alleyway before getting into the carriage.

A man dressed in the armor of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stepped out of the darkness, and the silver kite coat of arms on the armor indicated the identity of the silver knight. He bowed down and asked, "Your Highness, what do you command?"

"Inform the eldest princess and the regent to wait for me at the Marquis de Golon's mansion. With a faint command, Sylvia and Caterina boarded the carriage.

"As you wish. Your Highness. The knight of the Ministry of Internal Affairs saluted the carriage and quickly turned away.

The coachman shook the reins and steered the carriage slowly away from the church square.

The residence of the Marquis de Golon, next to the Kite Fort, is not too far from the cathedral. But it took the driver two quarters of an hour to reach his destination slowly.

The Silver Knight of the House of Internal Affairs stood alone at the door, and when Sylvia and Caterina stepped out of the carriage, he led the two ladies through the gardens of the Marquis's Palace in silence. On the way, they did not meet any servants or guards, and it was clear that the Marquis of Golon was ready for a secret talk. The three of them walked to the door of a small single building, and the knight of the Ministry of Internal Affairs stopped.

Sylvia and Caterina saw Roland as soon as they entered.

The eldest princess of Gambis, dressed in a blue nightdress, with her white gold hair and bearskin slippers on her feet, looked as if she had just gotten out of the bed, languid, angry, and a little sneaky and curious. She gave Caterina a warm hug, then asked Sylvia, "Trisley didn't come with you?"

Sylvia glanced at Roland and walked straight to the last room in the corridor.

"Your Highness, why did you mention Trisley, and why didn't you change your clothes?" asked Caterina a few steps behind Sylvia and asked Roland softly.

"Shouldn't I sleep at this time?, what's wrong with me wearing a nightdress?" Roland complained justifiably, "I slept soundly, and Old Man Goron had to call me over......"

"You're in bed again. Katerina snickered, "I should have thought of that." ”

"My dear, I thought you were going to have a wonderful night, but I didn't expect it to be you who accompanied Sylvia. Roland muttered narrowly.

Caterina was confused at first, but then she understood her close friend's ridicule, her pretty face flushed slightly, and she said, "What nonsense? I have good news for you." ”

"When Sylvia went out, I knew it was good news. I said she would come, but Old Man Goron didn't believe it. Now they have nothing to say. Roland raised his delicate chin and said proudly.

"My Highness, you are the smartest and most beautiful princess in the world. Okay, right?"

"Of course. ”

The three of them walked to the end of the corridor, and Williams pushed open the door from the inside and said enthusiastically: "Your Highness, you came late at night, and there must be something good to tell us." ”

Sylvia walked into the room, greeted the Marquis of Golon, and said with a smile: "Good things always come with big trouble...... I hope it doesn't bother you. ”

Williams and Katerina greeted each other, closed the door, and said, "I'm looking forward to it." ”

"Sit down and talk. The Marquis of Goron personally pulled out chairs for the two ladies.

After Sylvia sat down, she said to the Marquis of Gorlon, "Time is pressing. Call a knight to escort you. Seeing is believing. ”

Marquis Goron casually tugged at the rope on the wall. Not long after, a young knight with a steady temperament walked into the room, bowed and said, "My lord, what do you command?"

Sylvia took the crystal bottle from Caterina's hand, placed it on the table, and said, "Let him drink it, run the fighting spirit, and resonate with a new elemental bit." ”

Williams was moved. Roland's eyes lit up, and he reached out to reach for the crystal bottle, but was stopped by Sylvia.

"No one else is allowed to touch it. I'm going to see him drink it and digest it all. Sylvia smiled meaningfully.

Marquis Gollon's deep gaze swept over everyone's faces and nodded slightly. The knight picked up the potion, raised his head and drank it, closed his eyes, and silently worked his fighting spirit.

After two quarters of an hour, he opened his eyes and stammered, "Big ...... My lord, I resonate with another ...... An element bit. ”

"Incredible! Incredible!"

Williams walked up to the knight and looked at him in surprise.

"Interesting. Roland sat on the edge of the table, shook his snow-white and well-proportioned calves, and said with interest, "Sylvia, you have brought more trouble than you can imagine. ”

"Your Highness, pay attention to your manners. Goron glared at her, then turned to the knight's guard and said, "Becker, this matter is not to be mentioned to anyone! If there is another potion of the same one behind, you will be the first to use it." Step aside. ”

"Thank you, sir. The knightly guard saluted, glanced at Sylvia and Caterina gratefully, and turned to leave the room.

"Becker's father and brother died in the battle in the eastern provinces of the Three Elements. The Swift Dragon Knights expanded their armaments, and Becker obeyed my orders and used the Energy Potion to promote the knight, resonating with only 13 elemental slots...... There are many more such dragon knights. Marquis Goron said with emotion. He paused, and asked with burning eyes, "Your Highness Sylvia, what kind of potion is this?"

Sylvia held the crystal vial, and the dark green void water element swirled and flowed in her palm until it eroded the crystal bottle completely, and then dissipated into the air as a cloud of mist. Sylvia withdrew her slender hand, which was as smooth as jade, and said with a smile, "Golden Recovery Elixir." It is equally effective for Trainee Knights, but does not help them reach the Transcendent Realm. ”

"The golden potion? Marquis Goron nodded, and after a moment of silence, said, "I just hope it's not as rare as the Golden Knight." ”

"If it can't be promoted, Sylvia should call it a legendary recovery potion, and she won't go up in the middle of the night and gather us on purpose. Roland said with a grin.

There are thousands of dragon knights in Gambis, most of whom are apprentice knights and knights who rely on potions to advance through the ranks. If the Golden Elixir brought them all up to the level of Senior Trainee Knights and Senior Knights, the overall strength of the Knights of Glory and the Knights of the Swift Dragon would be unimaginably enhanced. Why would Sylvia take out such a precious transcendent potion, unless she asks for it...... By the way, it must be the secret refining potion of the Kite Castle! Our refining potion has an excellent effect, and it can awaken the fighting spirit talent of ordinary nobles with a high probability. The York family is preparing for the Alien War Beast Knights, and they need more trainee knights. Haha, in this way, the value of the gold recovery potion was transferred to the secret refining potion of the Kite Castle...... Williams's mind raced, and he figured out Sylvia's purpose in an instant. Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he asked tentatively, "How can we get the formula for the Golden Recovery Elixir?"

Sylvia's bright gaze fell on the regent's face, as if to penetrate all his thoughts, and her red lips opened slightly, spitting out a word familiar to the nobles.

"Marriage. ”
