Chapter 218: At Sea
The breeze on the sea surface carried a faint salty taste, and the breeze blew layers of thin waves on the calm sea, raising Roddy's head, raising the corners of Roddy's clothes, and raising his heart. 【Reading.com】
Roddy just stood at the bow of the boat, and the big ship at the feet of the cutter was riding the wind and waves on the sea, and in front of him was a vast sea.
Roddy didn't have to look back to feel the secret emissary of the kingdom of Sauron standing behind him, watching him.
That guy is about forty years old, but Luo Di doesn't like him very much, since the imperial capital met, at the beginning, that guy was very suspicious of his age, and seemed to think that such an important peace talk, the imperial capital sent a twenty-year-old boy as a plenipotentiary, which was a bit too child's play. But then the Marquis of Caroline said to him, "Lord Count Roddy can definitely represent the Empire!"
Hmph, the Marquis of Caroline's sentence can definitely represent the empire, I'm afraid...... He is still in the future, he is the illegitimate son of the emperor.
The only son of the emperor can naturally represent the empire.
There was no battle flag on the ship, and it was a merchant ship. Nominally, this is a merchant ship belonging to the Guangming Da 6 largest arms manufacturer "Ruijinfang".
The dozen or so retinues that Roddy brought with him, as well as the subordinates of the Roland envoy, were all dressed as ordinary merchant servants.
After all, there has been no public turnaround between the Roland 6 Temple and the kingdom - this peace talk is also a secret!
Secrets? Jokes!
Luo Di sneered in his heart, he didn't think there were any secrets in this world! With the influence and power of the Roland Temple in Roland Big 6, the news of the peace talks would soon be known to them. Speaking of which, there are probably still a lot of dangers in this peace talks! The temple will not allow the kingdom to negotiate peace with the Empire of Light! For their own purposes, they will also try their best to sabotage the peace talks.
The best way to do it. It's an assassination! Kill the messenger of the Empire of Light!
In the palace, Andy consulted with himself.
This is also one of the reasons for sending themselves to the peace talks. If you don't have a strong strength, you can't protect yourself in the face of the master Ruyundi Temple!, so after thinking about it, the most powerful Tianlie on his side at the moment wants to stay in the imperial capital to protect Andy, so he has no choice but to let himself go.
"Lord Roddy, it's very windy outside, so you might as well go in and rest for a while!" the Roland envoy had a humble smile on his face.
Roddy frowned slightly. He whispered, "Didn't I say, please don't call me an adult?"
"Ah!" Roland was stunned, but still smiled, "Yes, Mr. Roddy, please come in." ”
Hmph, grovel!!!!
Who called them weak now, and who told them to have demands of themselves now?
With such a guy watching, Roddy didn't have the heart to enjoy the sea view anymore, the huge sail on the mast had been raised, and the sea breeze puffed up the sail. The sailors in short clothes shouted and busily chattered, and Roddy sighed and whispered into the cabin.
In all fairness. That Roland is a good man at pleasing people, a brilliant minion!
Roddy enjoyed the food and wine he had prepared. The diet of the Roland people was very different from that of the Empire, and those novelties also intrigued Roddy very much. The only thing that was a little annoying was that this Roland man was sitting next to him, trying to put his words on the side of his words.
At the beginning, he seemed to want to set up his own identity background and origin - joke, his identity is not even known to an old guy of the Bright Empire like the Marquis of Caroline, let alone you are a Rolander?
Then the Roland man saw that it had no effect. began to ask himself about the terms of the peace talks, and Luo Di just replied coldly: When I see your king, I will naturally say!
Fortunately, this Roland has a very good population, and he is also a learned fellow. Luo Di talked to him about other things about Roland 6, whether it was the naval naval warfare that Roland people were proficient in, and the various customs and legends of Roland 6, this person was talking about the Tao.
Roddy couldn't help but ask about the legendary Warcraft that only Roland 6 had. After all, I have two heads now.
Although the envoy didn't understand why the other party was asking this, the king and the prime minister had explained on the way to him that the other party's request should be met as much as possible, so he cheered up and redoubled his favor, and naturally knew everything.
It turns out that there is indeed a Warcraft in Roland 6.
This strange creature has existed from thousands of years ago to the present day. It's just that now on Roland 6, the number of Warcraft is getting smaller and smaller.
Three hundred years ago, because of the ravages of Warcraft, the Magicians Association and the Temple of Roland 6 jointly issued a notice that anyone who was Roland 6 could use the core of Warcraft to go to the Magicians Association to receive a bonus!
Under such a system, there is a profession unique to Roland 6: the Witcher! Among them, there have been several very powerful masters!
It is said that a hundred years ago, there was a witcher who actually reached the level of a paladin!
It's just that it started a hundred years ago, and after more than two hundred years of hunting, the number of demonic beasts is getting smaller and smaller, and there are no more demonic beasts in most areas of Roland Big 6. Now there are still traces of Warcraft only in the northern mountains of the Sauron Kingdom, as well as in the northern forest of Roland Da 6, and in other areas, there is only occasional news of Warcraft activities, but most of them are just rumors.
And another mysterious legend of Roland Big 6 is the legendary dragon!
Dragons are incredibly powerful creatures with advanced intelligence and naturally strong bodies, as well as the special magical abilities of dragons that they are born with.
It's just that the territory of the dragons is in the extremely cold land at the northern tip of Roland.
The temperature in that place is extremely low, and it is said that you have to pass through the forest where demonic beasts thrive in the northern lands, and then you can reach it further north. It's just that because of the horror of the dragon clan and the barrier of the Warcraft Forest, no one goes. Dragons never set foot on their turf.
In the history of Roland 6, although there have also been several large-scale operations of demon hunters "slaying dragons". But all failed, without exception!
Even the most powerful witchers don't dare to provoke dragons anymore!
It's just that there are some individual powerful magicians with some great strength, and some close contact with the dragons - of course, this is also a legend.
Hearing this, Roddy smiled slightly.
Was it just a legend? He couldn't help but glance at the scimitar on the cabinet behind him!
It's a veritable dragon magic spell! It seems that there are people on Roland 6 who have dealings with dragons, it's true!
Roddy interrogated a few words. After all, he still cares a lot about the legends of the dragon clan - he now has one of the most powerful demon dragons in the legend in his body!
It's a pity. Regarding these legendary secrets, this Roland envoy did not know much about it. After all, those things involved secretly, it is impossible for him to know about them.
However, seeing that the earl of the Bright Empire dared to be interested in these strange things, in order to curry favor with the other party, the envoy told another rumor.
In the middle of the Roland Sea, there is a large island, and that island can almost be a small 6 lands. On top of that island, there are legendary "dwarves"!
Seeing Roddy's skeptical expression. The messenger immediately explained that these dwarves were not legends, but they did exist! These dwarves also nominally believed in the cult. Therefore, it is recognized by the Roland people as the legitimate existence of the Roland 6. Dwarves are naturally shorter than Terrans, have a short temper, and prefer to drink a kind of ale made by themselves. At the same time, the dwarves are excellent craftsmen. They're good at crafting good weapons...... Wait a minute
Luo Di was not very interested in these, and couldn't help but stab the other party: "There are dragons, monsters, and dwarves." It seems that Roland 6 is a place where demons and monsters are mixed. ”
The messenger's face froze. Then he smiled in disguise.
Roddy thought for a moment. And asked about the news about the temple - especially the Sages of the Temple sect in the kingdom of Sauron!
In fact, after going around for a long time, this question is what Luo Di really wants to ask, but he is afraid that the other party will suspect him, so he went around in this big circle.
Sure enough, the messenger immediately showed a vigilant expression on his face, and couldn't help but say, "Mr. Earl, why are you asking this? Now our relationship with the temple ......"
Luo Di slightly, knowing that the other party was afraid that he would secretly contact the temple. I'm afraid that the Empire of Light will use some kind of conspiracy against the yamen.
"You don't have to worry, I just heard that the Black Veil Sage in the Sauron Kingdom is the most powerful of the thirteen Sages in the Roland Great 6 Temple!
Roland was visibly relieved, and said with a smile: "It seems that your news is really very well-informed! This Black Veil Sage is indeed a powerful Sage in Roland's Temple!, although she is a young woman, she has cultivated to the point of a great cultivator in the legend! Her strength is as powerful as that of a paladin!"
Speaking of this, Roland's face showed a somewhat strange smile, and he lowered his voice and said, "Although this Black Veil Sage is veiled all day, it is rumored that she is a stunning beauty......
There was a look of fascination in his eyes, but he didn't notice that Roddy's face had sunk, and he snorted coldly.
Roland shuddered for a moment and quickly straightened his face, and continued: "It's just that this Black Veil Sage doesn't seem to like to take care of things very much on weekdays, especially now, he doesn't show up much...... Alas, I heard that when she was in the temple, several high-ranking knights in the temple were in love with her, and finally the Black Veil Sage agreed to the marriage proposal of the Holy 8 Knight Fielding, and I heard that she was going to marry the Paladin after the Black Veil Sage finished her cultivation in the Sauron Kingdom, but it was a pity that ......"
"What a pity?"
Roland smacked his lips and smiled, "Things didn't go right after that." A year ago, the Black Veil Sage suddenly stopped paying attention to Lord Fielding. Hearing that Lord Fielding had come to see her from the temple, but she had been blocked from the temple of the Cult, the Black Veil Sage publicly threw a magic staff from Lord Fielding down the steps. ”
"Oh?"
The Roland people saw that the Earl seemed to be very interested in this topic, and even cheered up and said what he knew: "That magic staff is an engagement token given to the Sage by Lord Fielding back then, and it is said that the Sage agreed to the paladin's marriage proposal, which is also the meaning of the Temple Elder, and the magic staff is also given by the Temple Elder to Lord Fielding, so that he can give it to the Black Veil Sage again." "Hmph!" Hearing this, Roddy's face sank, and his heart was a little unhappy.
Roland was startled, and he didn't know which of his words was wrong, which made the big man unhappy. I heard Luo Di say coldly: "It's strange that you elders of the Roland Temple still care about this kind of thing!"
"Hehe, isn't it?, but the love between a saint and a paladin was a beautiful conversation at the time......! Huh"
"Actually, what?" Roddy really couldn't help but ask.
The Roland man smiled slightly: "Actually, I heard that there are other things here. I heard that because of the reconciliation of the Fielding Paladin and the Black Veil Sage, the Fielding Holy 8 Knight is grateful to that elder and asked that elder to be his godfather!
"Oh!" Roddy's eyes lit up!
Hmph, yes! In order to win over a paladin, he actually used such a trick - it seems that this guy is not a simple religious fanatic, but has such a deep scheming!
"And then?" Roddy asked with a smile.
"Later, the news of that day came out, and the Black Veil Sage not only threw out the magic staff that Lord Fielding had given him back then, but also prevented Lord Fielding from ......seeing him! Haha!! later it was said that the two had a small fight, but it seems that our Black Veil Sage beat the Paladin away!" Roland smiled very proudly: "I heard that the Black Veil Sage told the Paladin that day that he had never loved him! That Paladin later ran to the Bright 6 ......" Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped talking, and his face was a little strange. It seems a little awkward.
Luo Di smiled slightly: "Later, I heard that he ran away; Bright Big 6 was defeated by Duke Tulip, right?"
"Yes. The Roland people breathed a sigh of relief, after all, now that the two families are negotiating peace, it is always a little awkward to mention the war.
Roddy thought for a moment and asked, "Has that Fielding Paladin returned to the temple?"
"I heard that yes, it's just that Lord Fielding hasn't shown up since he went back, and it seems that he is immersed in cultivation. ”
Luo Di smiled slightly: "It's not bad, I know shame and then be brave." I wanted to take revenge on Duke Tulip after cultivating. After a pause, he was about to ask how the black veil was in the kingdom of Sauron now, when he suddenly heard a loud bang. Then the hull shook violently twice.
All the food on the table spilled on the floor, and the Roland man was caught off guard and fell to the floor.
I heard the sailor's loud shout outside: "Someone is shooting at us!"
