Chapter 35: Running for Death

"What's the solution?" Sean's eyes lit up. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Baron Dorne thought for a moment and said, "Although the people who go are all magnates, these magnates can't go alone after all, and they also need to be accompanied by guards. ”

"You mean to let me get in with their guards?"

"It's more difficult, the royal guards and knights are all children of nobles, and if you are not a nobleman, you can't enter this circle at all. The same is true of the Church, where the cardinals' bodyguards are all members of the Knights of St. Saint and never use outsiders. ”

"So that's all left of the Seven Cities Alliance?"

"That's right, are you familiar with the mage of Karsecot?"

Sean spread his hands: "I don't know any of them." Uh, wait, not necessarily. ”

His heart suddenly moved.

The white-robed mage made two requests on his deathbed, one of which was to ask him to go to Calsect City, the capital of the Seven Cities Alliance, to report to Chief Archmage Soresa about something.

Baron Dorne asked, "What is not necessarily?"

Sean said: "Although I don't know the mage of the Seven Cities Alliance, I will meet the chief archmage of Karsecot Soresa in a few days, well, if I am lucky." ”

"That's going to be easy. ”

Dorn slapped his thigh and said, "Although Soresa may not go in person, he will definitely send an embassy to go." Wouldn't it be better for you to ask him to put you in the mission?"

"I can try, but I'm not sure. ”

Sean thought to himself that he was just running errands and passing on a word, and this intersection was obviously not enough for the other party to agree to his request.

Dorn thought for a moment and said, "You wait. ”

Then he ran to a corner of the study and rummaged for a long time, and finally found a wooden box in a compartment at the bottom of a cabinet, I don't know how long it had been left, he picked it up and put it to his mouth and blew it, and the room was suddenly dusty, and Sean and several guards had to raise their hands to drive away the dust that had drifted in front of them.

"What is this?" asked Sean, coughing.

"Eat. ”

Sean: "......"

Guards: "......"

He put the wooden box on the table and opened it, there were several small cloth bags inside, he opened them one by one and sniffed them, then picked one up and handed it to Sean: "Take this." ”

Sean took it and asked suspiciously, "What is this?"

"A pill made from the seeds of the Monia flower and the sap of the black cedar tree, which can restore sanity, has a miraculous effect on the damage of spiritual magic, and is my grandmother's dowry. ”

"Why are you giving me this?"

Dorn paced from behind his desk, leaned in front of Sean, and said mysteriously:

"I have heard that Soresa lost his wife in middle age, and his only daughter is regarded as a treasure by him, but the girl was seriously injured in a magic experiment half a year ago, and although her father asked the Pope to save her life, she lost all consciousness and fell into a near-eternal sleep, and no one has been able to wake her up so far. ”

Sean gave him a blank look: "You don't want to tell me that even the symptoms of the Seven Cities Alliance's chief archmage and the Pope being helpless can be cured by a few pills in this small bag." ”

Dorne said, "Of course it can't be cured. ”

"And what do you mean?"

"You gave it to Soresa because you said it had been found at great lengths to heal his daughter. Even if this pill is useless, at least it seems that you are very sincere. ”

Sean: "...... Thanks a lot, I'll try. ”

"Well, come on, I'll give you my luck too, I wish you success. ”

"Your goods are still calm in the sea, so you can keep your luck first. ”

Back in the village, Sean told everyone the good news that Baron Dorne was going to exempt everyone from the three-year land tax, causing another boil.

In addition to the territorial tax and the tithe tax that the church has not changed for thousands of years, there are also a variety of entry taxes, mill taxes, transaction taxes, etc., but the territorial rent tax is the largest part after all, and if this piece is reduced, the burden on the villagers will be much smaller.

Sean didn't mention the contract he signed with Baron Dorne, only told the villagers that the Baron had waived their taxes for three years out of apology, but whether the Wrights, Aunt Jessie's family, and the Hippy father and daughter accepted the apology was out of Sean's control.

Soon the dinner party began, and after a day of fighting, Sean let go of his arms, feasted on the laughter and laughter of the villagers, and then drunkenly slept in the village chief's house until the next afternoon, when he was refreshed. He packed his bags, said goodbye to the reluctant villagers and the teary-eyed Hi Pi, and set foot on the road to the south.

Since he had received valuable information from Baron Dorne about the Elven King's Election Conference, Sean changed his itinerary and planned to take a boat along the canal across Griffon's Heart and go directly south, first to Qingquan Town to hand over the equipment and ashes of the white-robed mage to his daughter, and then go to sea to find Soresa in the Seven Cities Alliance in the Southern Subcontinent.

He had asked Chief White that the nearest canal port was in Rock Town to the west, so Shaun galloped west along the rolling hills.

It wasn't until the horse was panting slightly that he stopped by a small river, took out a handful of beans from his bracelet and fed it to him, then let go of the reins and let him drink and graze on his own.

Then Sean also walked to the river and picked up a handful of water to wash his face. In the cold wind of the north, the river water was getting colder and colder, which not only drove away the fatigue of the journey, but also lifted his spirits.

Suddenly, an extremely soft and pleasant voice came from behind him: "Don't drink the water in the river, someone has just died upstream." ”

Sean was startled, and quickly spilled the water he was holding while looking back.

I saw a girl in a royal blue mage robe riding a Ural mountain horse looking at her with a smile.

Sean only glanced at her face, and his heart skipped twice.

He had traveled a lot, he had seen female villagers, millers, seamstresses, businesswomen, mages, knights, and even female devils in the latest battle, but in Sean's opinion, the most beautiful woman was his mother, Anne.

This is not his boasting, the outstanding appearance of Duke Stag's youngest daughter once conquered the entire imperial high society, and even the prince was moved to marry the Stag family, so later the mother eloped with her father to cause an uproar.

But the girl in front of her is actually three points better than her mother when she was young. Crystal clear eyes, delicate and delicate facial features, a long brown-red hair casually spread out on the plump and straight chest, although the expression looks gentle and kind, but exudes a thrilling beauty.

Seeing that Sean had not touched the water again, she smiled and waved her hand, and crossed the river to the south.

Sean watched with regret as her figure disappeared into the distant hills, in a very different direction from his own.

If only I could walk with such a beautiful lady.

Sean shook his head, walked over to the grazing horses, rolled over, and continued towards Rock Town.

But he hadn't gone far when a hurried sound of horses' hooves came from behind him, getting closer and closer to him.

Sean looked back, the girl actually came back again, but this time she lay on the horse, her legs kept knocking on the horse's belly to accelerate, and soon overtook the side, Sean wanted to say hello, but the other party didn't look at it, still controlling the horse and galloping.

Just as he was wondering, there was another shout behind him, and four fierce knights appeared on the avenue, all of them were tall horses with thick armor and heavy helmets, with shields hanging from their saddles, swords behind their backs, and crossbows in their hands, and they chased fiercely in the direction where the girl had left, and from time to time shot two arrows at her back.

Sean was immediately furious.

In broad daylight, four heavily armed knights bullied an unarmed weak woman.

Is there still a bit of gentlemanly demeanor in this?

No!

Is there still a bit of chivalry in this?

No!

Does it have anything to do with her beauty?

No!

To provide protection for the weak and helpless, to fight to help the defenseless, and to give one's life against the injustice and evil of the world is the glory that the Father of All Gods bestows on every adventurer!

Sean drew his longsword, glowing with purple light, and chased the horse in the direction of the knights' departure.

"In the name of God!"
