69. The soul inside the cardinal
"The Bird Species Imprint, you mean, you have the relevant clues?"
"What if I say that the mark of the blue bird species is with me?"
As soon as Fisher's words came out, everyone around Valentina looked at him, and even Valentina's eyes were filled with layers of uneven waves, like ripples in a cold spring, a little thought flashed in her eyes, and then she suddenly spoke,
"As I mentioned to Mr. Fisher before, the reason why we went to the small island in the middle of the Southern Ocean where the scrolls were hidden was because we had found the tomb of an ancient bird species near the snow-capped mountains in the territory of Mia. In the dungeon we discovered the location of the island and its buried ancient history, but soon we found a thief hole in the dungeon."
"Someone arrived at the cave first, and took the most precious burial goods inside."
She gently groped for the ring in her hand, the material of the ring was precious, and the material like warm jade could not be touched too much, even in the room, it looked quite bright.
"Mia's officials told us that the stolen item was a precious piece of ice, and that foreigners had hired local bandits to do the same. We suspect that the Bird sigil was stolen along with the piece of Zhen Ice, but the Miya military, who brought Zhen Ice back last week, told us that no mark was found there, only the employees of the pioneer company who kept the items."
Fisher smiled and nodded,
"You guessed it right, the items they stole do have the mark of the bird species."
"I followed Captain Aragina from the Southern Ocean into the Eastern Ocean, and on the way to the island of Pattishen, I met the men of my old nemesis, Nari. As you know, the name Fisher Benavides means 10 million Nario in Nari. ”
"I had a confrontation with the members of the Overseas Bureau there, and although I was able to get out, they had the magic of telecommunication to notify the official remotely, and my whereabouts were exposed to Saint Nari's eyes. In order not to drag down the Iceberg Queen, I left halfway and came to the north with the mark of the blue bird species, hoping to be sheltered by the Turan family. ”
Balzac, who was next to Valentina, pursed his lips and looked at Fisher with a rather flirtatious expression,
"Or maybe you're an employee of Nari? They have given you the sigil of the bird species, allowing you to infiltrate our ranks and try to steal more wealth and secrets from the Frosty Sycamore Tree like a robber."
Although Phyllis and Balzac were not a good match, at least on the "Anti-Fisher Front" they were surprisingly unanimous, and he did not believe in the handsome gentleman of Nari from outside.
Obviously, he hated an illiterate person like Phyllis, but for some reason, he didn't feel happy with a scholar like Fisher who knew more than himself, as if someone had stolen the limelight from him.
Fisher shook his head, but did not open his mouth to refute or explain Balzac's words, but just stared straight at Valentina in front of him with his eyes,
"I'm afraid that no matter how much I explain, it will be useless, so let's put the level of thinking about the problem on the simple transaction, since it is a transaction, of course, there is a risk of being deceived, but Miss Valentina can avoid this risk, as long as you are sure that you can find the mark of the bird species from other channels."
The mark of the blue bird species is on Fisher, no matter how much Valentina tries to find a channel, she will eventually return to Fisher's side, and he is not worried that the other party will not agree.
"The mark of the bird species is on your body?"
Valentina rubbed the ring on her hand, thinking for a second, her pale silver eyes flickered slightly, and although her eyebrows didn't change much, she still revealed a clear sense of excitement, and asked Fisher at the same time.
"Sorry, it's better for me not to say more about the chips until Valentina agrees to a trade, that usually raises more suspicion, doesn't it? What I want is simple, the protection of the Turan family and the qualifications to enter the Sycamore Tree with you. ”
Miss Valentina is still too young, and this obvious intention is an expression that must not be shown when negotiating and trading, because it will give the opponent a handle to step on your intention to broaden the negotiation space.
So when Valentina looked at Fisher's face in front of her, her excitement dissipated in an instant, and her little face became unhappy.
But the unhappy little expression only lasted for a second, as if she was buried under the heavy northern ice and snow and could not be seen, she raised her right hand slightly to support her cheek, and then looked at Fisher in front of her through the gap in her fingertips,
"Mr. Fisher Benavides, the Turan family has never considered the provenance of the people, as long as we have the same goals, there is room for cooperation, which is why I dared to invite you to join my team when we met for the first time."
"Since it's a trade, and you've got the chips favored by the Turan family, we're certainly happy to cash in on what you want. But a word of caution, don't fool the Turan family with empty checks, the Turan family is determined to get the Frost and Snow Sycamore, we have to get there, and the consequences of deception will be unimaginable to you. ”
Her petite body was still sitting in a wheelchair, her legs seemed to be completely incapacitated, as motionless as a burden, but her sick and delicate body did not stop the sense of oppression contained in her body from the Turan family, the most powerful family in the north.
This sense of oppression has weakened for Fisher, who is not from the North, and he only has a certain understanding of the power of this family before, and probably only knows that their family started as an ore trader, and now he is committed to investing in various parts of the North.
"Of course no problem, then the deal is done?"
Valentina nodded and spoke,
"Tonight we will leave the country of Sardinia with Sister Iros, and we will leave for the kingdom of Nebalen, and we will talk about the deal on the way, Mr. Fisher."
After saying this, she didn't wait for Herdor behind her to push herself, and walked out of the church door in a wheelchair by herself, Balzac and Phyllis were only part-time workers, and their boss made a decision that they had no right to interfere, so she just glared at Fisher in the chair and followed Valentina out of the church.
Instead of leaving the church, Herdor looked at Fisher, who was still sitting in his chair, with scorching steam spraying from under his face, but Fisher did not see any place in his body where coal could burn, and this magical structure made Fisher more and more convinced that Herdor in front of him had an extremely close relationship with the cardinal.
Valentina outside had gradually moved away, and Fisher thought that he was about to go up to the cardinal to talk to him about some information about Earwind, but he suddenly said something that made Fisher confused,
"Zizi. I really didn't expect that the famous Fisher Benavides would end up like today, and I should have thought of it before. ”
"Do you know my teacher?"
There was no recognizable expression on Herdor's mechanical face, and even his tone was a little stiff, like the components that made up his body today,
"Zizi. I didn't know each other, but I had a one-sided relationship, I had attended a show of the Nari Magic Association, I had met him at that time, and he teamed up with another Nari magic master to design a new ring that shook the world of magic. This made me, who was his age but had achieved nothing, regret it, and worked harder to learn magic. ”
Gravity magic?
When Mr. Haytham and the master of gravity magic collaborated to design gravity magic, it should have been decades ago, when Mr. Haytham was young, and the Herdor in front of him said that he was the same age as Mr. Haytham at that time?
Wait a minute, what is the situation in front of Herdor? Isn't he a cardinal made of a cardinal?
Fisher was a little surprised, but Herdor in front of him was not surprised that he would be surprised, the steam under his face was even stronger, and a human smile appeared for the first time in his dull tone,
"Zizi. It's a jaw-dropping thing, right? No one would have imagined that the man living in this machine would be such an old guy, but even though I have changed my body, I still feel that I will age, and I have recently started to feel that my brain is not very bright."
"Zizi. Far away, you are a personal student of Haytham Magician, Valentina is still young, and she has been in the family for a long time, of course she doesn't know much about Nari's affairs, Haythami's apprentice will not be a wicked person, she will understand this She is just that she is too eager for the frost and snow plane tree, you will understand later. ”
"Zizi. In short, welcome to our team, Mr. Fisher Benavides, I am Herdor Turan, a member of the Turan family and a magician who is not a beginner. ”
Heldor gently stretched out his right hand to Fisher, as if a vivid soul had appeared in the originally lifeless machine, Fisher was stunned and then also stretched out his right hand to him, and after gently holding it up close, he suddenly found that the arm of the other party's machine flashed a little light blue streamer.
And this streamer, Fisher has only seen in the cardinal's cardinal
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Herdor."
"Zizi."
Herdor nodded in agreement, but the steam from under his face seemed to gush out uncontrollably, casting his face in the mist, and when he let go of Fisher's hand, he turned around and followed Balzac out of the church.
Fisher, who was sitting there, turned the metal card in his hand, he had already made sure that the cardinal who was close to him was Hardor.
"It seems that there are a lot of troubles in the Turan family."
"What the hell, why is there so many strange things happening with you, is he a human or a machine?"
Emhardt, who had shrunk into Fisher's pocket when he was talking about business, finally poked his head out, in fact, he could have stayed on Fisher's shoulder and listened, but for some reason, as long as he watched Fisher talk to other women, he couldn't help but want to remind the other party to run.
"Mr. Fisher, can you help? I, that, carried a little too much stuff and it was heavy."
Hearing this, Fisher turned his head to look in the direction of the Mother Goddess beside him, but saw that behind the Mother Goddess, the big-bellied rabbit nun Elos was dragging the bag of bread into a large ball with one hand, the bag was bulging, I don't know what it contained, but it should have gone to the bell tower upstairs, no wonder it hadn't come down for so long.
It's just that when Fisher was panting with his lower abdomen in his hands, he felt guilty for letting his wife get pregnant and let her do dirty work, even though she didn't actually have children.
"My God, are you going to move your church entirely? And, I'd like to ask you how you got that big bag of stuff down the stairs. ”
Emhart, who was sitting on Fisher's shoulder, pursed his lips and spit out mercilessly.
"Huh? These are all things left behind by Sister Charlotte, and some of them are valuable things in the church, and if they leave, I'm afraid they will all be stolen."
Fisher glanced at the bottles and cans in the bag speechlessly, and even the pickled sauerkraut and spices she had brought with her, and it seemed that she was as good at picking the door as herself.
"Something valuable? What are you worth? Let me be well. ”
At this moment, a pair of muffin-like lion ears suddenly appeared behind Fisher, and the lion ears trembled happily after hearing Iros's previous words, and then Fisher felt someone next to him approach, and looked at the contents of Iros's bag with a glittering eye.
It was none other than Valentina's wealth fan, Phyllis the lion.
"Cut, what kind of garbage is this, and what kind of valuable thing it is, which makes me happy in vain. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, the boss told you to hurry up, we have to leave the country by boat. ”
Phyllis was disappointed when she saw the contents of the bag, and she took several steps back from Fisher's side in disgust, but her simple words immediately made Sister Elos look pitiful.
"I'd better put these things in the church."
Ilos's ears lowered a little, and she tried to drag the large bag of things back to the room with a sad face, but Fisher couldn't bear to see her drag the objects so hard, he reached out and easily dragged the large number of items back to the front of the room, and comforted her casually,
"It's okay, the land bought by the Turan family, if the mayor of Furnace Fort is not a stupid pig, he should take care of it for you."
"Uh-huh."
Iros covered her lower abdomen and nodded obediently, and for some reason, her face flushed slightly for a moment, and she followed Fisher and walked outside the church.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”
She listened to the church bells one last time, but the peaceful sound of the bells did not give her much courage, and she was a little unconfident, especially for the journey ahead.
But now that she's decided to take this step, to go back and see her dead relatives one last time, she should muster up the courage
She silently prayed in her heart, asking the Mother Goddess in the heavenly vault to watch over and protect her.
The carriage at the door had no space magic but was quite spacious, Valentina, Balzac, and Phyllis all sat in the carriage, and only Cardinal Herdor stayed outside the carriage to drive the carriage.
"Mr. Fisher, Sister Iros, let's get in the car first, it's cold outside, we'll go to the port now, and we'll leave the country of Sardinia tonight."
Fisher nodded, and put Sister Elose into the carriage first, but just as he was about to get into the carriage, he seemed to notice something, he turned his head slightly to look at the side of the carriage, only to see that the curtain of the window had been lifted slightly, revealing a pair of pale silver eyes that were looking at him.
When Fisher turned his head to look into those eyes, the curtain suddenly dropped, obscuring the view of Valentina behind the curtain.
"Forget it, it looks a little cramped inside, I'll sit outside with you."
Fisher shook his head and said.
Asking for votes, tips, and support is very important to me!
