Chapter 40: Nancy's Arrival
The sound of his heels hitting the ground grew farther and farther away, and there was a faint echo in his ears, and Kenneth, who had collapsed, felt as if he was in a dream, a dream he had had, and that sense of unreality reappeared.
Is it finally over?
The crown prince opened his eyes unconsciously, his eyes were facing the window, and he felt as if his body was not his own, watching the moonlight divide the room into two parts, one light and one dark.
I don't know how long it took Kenneth to feel a sharp pain in his right hand, and he struggled to lift his arm, and found that his five fingers had scabbed, and there was a fresh and sweet smell in the airβthe smell of the fountain of life.
Wallace didn't intend to kill me, and Sora could imprison me in the dormitory in disguise...... In other words, the father finally compromised.
Since he asked Sora to force me to build a new Big Mac device for him, then his own plan must have failed.
It's only been a few days and he's given up, and he's still such an unsuccessful guy.
The familiar footsteps sounded in her ears again, and out of the darkness came a graceful figure, and the princess went straight to the bed, and when she saw that Kenneth had opened her eyes, she chuckled and said:
"Woke up so soon? It seems that the medicinal effect of the Fountain of Life is obvious. β
"How long have you been hooking up with that fool Wallace?" the crown prince asked abruptly.
"Hmm...... It's been almost three months. β
Sora seemed to sink into some kind of sweet memory, and a big smile appeared on her face.
"Since you dare to blatantly abuse me, you must have the support of some big man, let me guess. It can raise a waste like Wallace. And who will be the one who can overpower the Father......"
Kenneth struggled to contain his anger. While calmly analyzing, he said: "Looking at the entire kingdom, the only person with this ability is Cardinal Joseph, tell me, what did he give Wallace?"
"I have to say...... Your mind is still clear. β
The princess sat down on the edge of the bed, gently grabbed the prince's injured right hand, looked at her masterpiece of the night, and said slowly:
"It's nothing to tell you. Wallace received the Spear of Destiny from Bishop Joseph, and his power now far surpasses yours and is the most important pillar of the kingdom. His Majesty the King has also compromised, poor Kenneth, you have been abandoned. β
"At what cost?"
Kenneth rolled his eyes and cast his gaze on his wife's face: "Wallace has the support of the Papal State, what is the price?"
"......" Sora fell silent.
"I don't know, or can't tell?"
The crown prince observed her expression, and a weak smile gradually appeared on his face: "I don't know, poor Sora. He doesn't see you as a partner at all. β
In order to prevent the sudden outbreak of this ** poisonous woman, Kenneth quickly continued what he had just said:
"But I can tell you. β
"You paralyzed wretch. What can you tell me?" the princess's tone gradually became cold.
"I can't move, but my mind is clearer than yours. β
The crown prince sneered at each other and said coldly: "I don't know what it is, but there is no doubt that he betrayed the interests of the kingdom. β
"What Wallace betrayed has nothing to do with me, it's a matter for the Fannon family. Sora was silent for a long time, then got up and left.
β......β
Kenneth looked at her departing back, and silently cast his gaze to the sky, the inky canopy, as if it was slowly pressing on himself after looking at it for a long time.
Soon, he fell asleep dizzily, and in the middle of the night, the crown prince was woken up by the wind in the night, and his body was frozen with a layer of chicken bumps.
Outside the dormitory, he faintly heard a hint of a quarrel, the man's voice was arrogant, no doubt it was Wallace, and the woman's voice was sharp, it should be Sora.
In the darkness, the crown prince showed a smile of relief.
......
Sound Nest Base, Underground Laboratory.
Pale yellow moonlight shines through the round glass of the lab, shining on the marble floor and the marble-smooth vampire corpses.
"This is the Vampire ......"
Aree reached into the sarcophagus with his right hand, his fingers lightly running his fingers over the vampire's corpse, her skin smooth, elastic and shiny, with a faint hint of ruddy blood.
It's just that there is no temperature at all, and the cold body feels like a statue.
"You're still touching!"
Charlene's cheeks puffed out in taste.
"It's just a corpse. β
The black-haired knight pulled his finger out of the sarcophagus, took one last look at the vampire, and then closed the lid of the coffin: "I didn't expect this blood-sucking monster to look so holy when it died." β
"Holy?"
The green-haired girl rolled her eyes, wrapped her arms around her chest, and said viciously: "Then I'll let Soros skin her later, so that people won't feel holy." β
"Whatever you want. β
Yalei didn't care about this, glanced at Charlene who was deliberately stiff-faced, and directly signed her little hand and walked out:
"Vampire is also finished, come with me. β
"Do you want to take that girl named Nancy as a disciple?" the green-haired girl asked as she let him hold her hand.
"It's early, but it's going to be. β
"I think you need to think about it carefully, and by the way, you have to check her background, and coming to Celtic at this critical point is really a little suspicious. β
She said worriedly, and her beautiful eyebrows were slowly approaching each other, twisting out a delicate little bump.
"The key point? She has sent us the method of using the Blade of Destruction, so that I don't have to worry about it anymore, is there such a stupid spy in the world?"
"That's right......" Charlene nodded.
"What about you, how is your private armed group?" Aret remembered that she was sending someone to the Balkans.
"Everything is going well, it's a pity that they are too weak. β
The green-haired girl showed an unwilling expression, shook her fist cheerily, and said with a firm face:
"But it doesn't matter. I'm the guide. I will definitely be able to train them into super soldiers!"
"It must be astronomical. Beware of bankruptcy. The brunette knight kindly reminded her.
"It's okay, when my booster potions go on sale, there will definitely be an endless amount of money to spend. Charlene leaned her head on his shoulder and smiled sweetly.
......
Earl's Court, Office.
Knock knock!
Outside the office door, there were a few soft knocks.
"The door is unlocked, come in. β
The black-haired knight looked up from the desk and felt Nancy's breath. Call her in at once.
"Okay. β
When the girl heard this, she immediately pushed the door in, looked at Yalei who was taking something from the drawer, and asked expectantly, "Is there any good news to tell me if you came to me so early?"
"Your hunch is accurate. β
Yalei picked up a long metal box, held it in his hand, and motioned for the other party to come and fetch it: "In order to repay you for your help to me, I specially purchased a famous sword, and now it is yours."
"What the Governor has given must be good. The girl happily took the sword case, and then eagerly opened it.
It was a long sword with a blue scabbard. The scabbard is made of precious dragon leather, with several silver wings on the top. At the end of the scabbard is connected to the sword, a sapphire the size of a tail finger, which is a circlip that locks the blade of the sword.
"Wow!"
Nancy's eyes lit up with cheer, and she immediately untied her sword, threw it into the sword box and placed it at her feet, and held the new sword in her hand to observe.
The blades are a pair of dragon wings that open upwards and bite the blade with a strong composite metal, and in the middle of the wings is a pure charged crystal. The girl can sense that this crystal has a strong absorption power and stability, and can inject her own fighting energy into it and store it for a long time.
At the top of the hilt is an inconspicuous coat of arms, the crest of the Solomon family, which any warrior knows because they can create a magic sword worthy of the holy sword.
"A magic sword made by the Solomon family!"
Nancy instantly felt an endless warm current enveloping her, she had always wanted such a magic sword that was both beautiful and practical, and now, her dream has finally come true.
"This is a top-level magic sword created by the Solomon family to imitate the performance of Durandal, relying on the power of this sword, your endurance can be increased several times. The black-haired knight said solemnly.
"I, I, I'm so happy!"
The girl was excited and couldn't organize words for a while, so she simply closed her mouth and didn't speak, and pressed the sapphire on the scabbard with her left hand, and the blade in the scabbard automatically popped out two inches, and the bright blade suddenly reflected the room brightly.
"It's so bright!"
She couldn't wait to draw her long sword, only to see a trace of blue light lingering on the polished blade, and at a glance, she knew that the blade had some kind of powerful quality.
"The body of the sword is infused with memory alloy, which can automatically restore wear and tear, and unless it breaks, it can always accompany you in a flawless posture. Yarei explained aptly.
"That's amazing!"
Nancy waved the magic sword excitedly, and the long sword silently sliced through the air, leaving a silver and blue light trail in the space.
With this sword, even if it is a magic exoskeleton, you can cut it with a sword!
"Do you like it?"
The black-haired knight squinted at her, like looking at a little white rabbit bouncing and running into a trap.
"I like it!"
The girl immediately unsheathed her sword and nodded vigorously.
"Then join the Governor's Palace, and I can make you the head of the city's defense. Yalei said with a smile on his face.
"City Chief?"
Nancy was stunned, pronounced the name in her heart a few times, and then asked happily: "Sounds like a very high position, isn't it possible for a Rosevia to hold it?"
"You're going to be there soon, and besides, I'm special here. The black-haired knight looked at her kindly and said with a smile: "With your level, it is absolutely no problem to serve as the commander of the city defense." β
"But...... I don't have any experience with that......" The girl hung her head in embarrassment and said a little shyly.
"It's okay, no one has experience from the beginning, you can learn slowly...... Learn ...... from scratch," Areley said meaningfully.
"How's the salary and treatment?" she asked, blinking.
"Everything comes according to the rules, with a monthly salary of 12,000, a special car and a house, one month of paid leave every year, and the treatment remains unchanged after retirement...... Now the Governor's Mansion is a little tight, so it can only be like this for the time being, and it can be slowly improved in the future. β
"it! I it!"
Nancy stuck to the desk like a javelin, her eyes were full of blood, and she wiped her tears and said: "I didn't expect Nancy to have such treatment, Rosevia is the best!"
"Yes, yes!" the black-haired knight echoed with a smile, then took out a deed of sale from the drawer, no, it was a deed, and pushed it in front of her:
"If you don't have anything to ask for a while, sign this contract first. β
"Okay. β
The girl nodded enthusiastically, and without looking closely, she immediately bit her finger and pressed her fingerprint at the end of the contract.
In this way, Nancy stupidly signed her name on the vassal contract, and from then on, according to Rossevia's vassal law, she was Yalei's direct vassal.
After signing the contract, the girl happily went to work with her sword and letter of appointment.
......
A day later, in the evening.
Knock knock!
There was a loud knock on the door outside the offices of the Earl's Court.
"The door is not closed, come in. β
The black-haired knight buried his head in the desk and said calmly.
The compound door was immediately slammed open, and Nancy burst in with a look of rage, and ran straight in front of Yare, and asked in a sharp voice:
"Lord Governor, why am I the only one in the city defense team of Dunlun City?"
"Uh...... You're the only one. The black-haired knight replied with a serious face.
"Where's the vice-captain?"
"You. β
"Where's Captain Wu?"
"You. β
"Where's the team?"
"You. β
β......β
The girl rolled her eyes suddenly, choked on her chest, and her face turned red, like a ripe tomato.
"What's wrong?
Yalei hurriedly got a cup of strong tea and handed it to her.
Nancy took the glass of water, gulped a few sips, her face instantly turned from red to white, and with a snort, she spewed out a water arrow, shooting out the window behind the black-haired knight, sticking out her tongue and wailing:
"Oh my God, there is such bitter tea in the world. β
"Life is like tea, if you are bitter, you will feel sweet. Yare, who exuded the air of a philosopher, patted her on the shoulder, making a deep gesture of vicissitudes.
"Makes sense. β
The girl gave a look of deep approval, then shook her head violently and shouted:
"No, no, Lord Governor, I asked some of the head of Dunlun City, Alasia, and he said that there was no such thing as a city captain. β
"It wasn't before, but it's been there since yesterday. β
β......β
Nancy pointed to the tip of her nose and said with a confused expression, "What do you mean - I'm the first city captain?" )
