Chapter 138: Translating the Dossier

A Guard enters the Great Hall, interrupting Red-Nased Hyde as he speaks at length, and Kenny on the Lord's Seat lifts his eyes and nonchalantly throws away the parchment in his hand. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Sersi glanced at the approaching guard, and only after confirming the man's identity did he get up to take the parchment dossier that had been handed him.

Then, the guards whispered in Sercy's ear, only to see Sersi nod repeatedly, and then opened the parchment file in his hand and read it carefully.

After the Guards had withdrawn, Old Hyde began to report on the plans for the rebuilding of Nippur.

Sersi looked at the parchment dossier in his hand, his eyes rolling, and after making sure he was safe, he left his seat and walked to Kenny on the lord's seat.

"Eugene sent it. "He asked the Guards to apologize to you again on his behalf, and in return for your forgiveness, he will continue to translate for you the ancient book of witchcraft, which he has compiled overnight, on the witchcraft of blood and water." He rolled his eyes and added, "I've checked, it's fine." ”

Kenny nodded, took the translation file from Sercy, and unfolded it on the table, pressing a corner of it with a brass inkstone, and carefully examining the fine handwriting on it.

Old Hyde still didn't stop, he stood next to the steps leading to the lord's seat, his head held high, and read aloud the copy of the city plan that Kenny had just thrown away, and the ministers of the council hall frowned, as if no one wanted to listen to his tirade.

Among them, Alan was particularly impatient, he simply plugged his ears and looked at the old guy who had changed into a gorgeous costume with disdain.

Perhaps, it was Sersi's comments on him that made Alan completely lose his good impression of the old minister, and now he wanted to go up and pluck the guy's head, so that his ears would be clean for a while.

"Old Hyde, you can rest for a while. Kenny stood up and tapped the table gently. "Just now, the king of Assyria sent a letter of alliance, I think, this is far more important than the plan for the city of Nippur!" he said, rolling up the parchment dossier on the table, and turning his head to look at the two people on the side, "Alan, Sersi, come with me to the side hall, I want to discuss the alliance with you!"

Alan let go of his hands covering his ears and stood up with a relieved expression, and then, before Sercy, he slipped into the side room.

As the door slowly closed, the ministers in the main hall collapsed in a lazy posture on their seats, sweeping away their previous serious expressions.

Among them, only old Hyde was still standing in place, he looked at the side hall with the door closed, his eyes like torches.

"Oh, damn it, you should have told us to come in to breathe, my ass is numb!" Alan grumbled as he watched the sun set outside the window.

"Who wouldn't, but there's a lot more to it than we think. Kenny rubbed his sore waist and spread the parchment dossier in his hand on the table, "It's easy to siege a city, but it's hard to defend it, not to mention that we want to develop this place into the most prosperous place on the Sumerian continent." Taxes, military service laws, the adjustment of various systems, the construction and renovation of roads and bridges, the demolition and reconstruction of schools, residential areas, and shops, and the distribution and adjustment of the army's urban defense, do you think the position of the lord is so easy to sit in?"

"it!" Alan turned, "That's your ambition, I never said I wanted to develop this place into the most prosperous place in the Sumerian continent! I'm just a little housekeeper who helps you manage your money, all I can do is tell you how much money you spent today, where you spent it, how much taxes you collected tomorrow, who paid it, and nothing else!"

"If you can do that, I'll go to the temple and worship the god Sheenamu!" Kenny said, spreading out the parchment file and pointing to the tiny handwriting on it, "This is just the beginning, don't complain, come and read the translation of the ancient book sent by Eugene, I just took a cursory look at it, and I didn't understand it." ”

"Blood Sorcery was originally a sorcery that the blood wizard Fulai excelled at, and this sorcery can turn people into blood, but it can also take damage itself..... Mother of Furley?" Alan muttered to himself, "What is this about? What is the Seminary of Vorley?is it in the city of Nippur?" he said, looking up at Sersi.

Sersi frowned, a hint of unease flashed across his face, he thought for a moment, and then explained, "It should be in Nipur, but definitely not in Nipur City. ”

"What is that place, and what does it have to do with this witchcraft?" asked Kenny.

"I don't know, but I've heard Barton mention it, let me think about it. Sersi touched his bare head and kept rolling his eyes.

"Don't think about it, I bet you can't think of anything useful. Alan rolled his eyes and mocked, "It's like this parchment dossier, Kenny's and I brains are equivalent to this whole piece of parchment, and we can write countless words as thin as mosquitoes and flies, and your brain is only this small piece," he said with his little finger, pointing to a corner the size of a fingernail on the parchment dossier, "Even if you sharpen the tip of a quill pen thinner than an ant's tentacles, you can only write a dozen, or, dozens of words?"

"Hey, hey, hey,

Alan smiled maliciously. The expression that flashed on Sersi's face just now was all in his eyes, although they hadn't known each other for a long time, but he knew too well the honest man in front of him who had no bad intentions, what he was hiding, Alan didn't know, but he knew, Sersi must know something, maybe about that bloodwater witchcraft, or that convent, but he believed that Sersi would not harm him and Kenny, and he had proven his loyalty before.

Due to the location, Kenny doesn't see the look on Selsey's face, and he thinks that Alan was really just joking.

"I do know of such a place as a convent," he recalled, "and there is such a convent on the First Continent, where the noble lady studyed. But that was a custom in the north, and there was no such convent in Karta, and I had heard the lords of the north mention that if the ladies of the noble families did not marry before the age of eighteen, the family would send them to the convent to prevent them from stealing the forbidden fruit, until they had found a suitable man. ”

"It makes sense, most of the Nipur people come from the north. So, this custom has been preserved. Alan analyzed

"Then what does this have to do with blood and water witchcraft? Who is Furai? It only said that Furai is good at this kind of witchcraft, but these translations are all from the ancient book of the Seminary, Eugene said that the book has probably been around since the establishment of the Seminary, and many of the handwriting on it has been blurred, at least two hundred years old, and the person who attacked us must not be a guy who is more than two hundred years old, right?" Kenny asked again. (To be continued.) )
