Chapter 506: Alert
readx;
The crowd gathered in the Holy Crown City gradually dispersed, and the atmosphere had just fallen silent, but in the blink of an eye, it became lively again, because there was a news from the town hall that Lord Raphael was already preparing for his marriage. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Weddings have always been a major event in life, and a lord's wedding is naturally the most important event, however, the specific date has not been decided, Gao Bin also said that he is in the Holy Crown City, and Grand Duke Solomon is still thousands of miles away in the Elemental Capital, the only daughter is going to get married, Solomon will definitely bring Lady Tiffany to the wedding, it is easy to say, but there are too many things that need to be coordinated with each other.
What's more, there is a custom here that if you want to marry Seniel and Yalina, you have to make a formal request to Gaubin and Archduke Solomon, respectively, and get the approval of the parents, although it is a matter of certainty, but the procedure is essential.
On this day, Yalina dragged Seniel to go shopping early in the morning, knowing that the wedding had been put on Han Jin's journey, she was the most excited person, Xenel also knew that she was steady, at least she had to pretend to be on her face, so Yalina wouldn't care so much, and she thought that it was right to show the joy and happiness in her heart.
Originally, she wanted to go shopping with Suniel yesterday, but because of a hangover, she slept until the afternoon and didn't get up, so she couldn't delay her business today.
The relationship is becoming harmonious, Yalina and Suniel are holding hands, shopping shop after store, if Han Jin can accompany them, they will be very happy, it turns out that no kind of love can be flawless, Han Jin can give them what ordinary men can't have, but they will also lose some small pleasures in life. It is unimaginable that even government and military affairs have to be handled by others, and Han Jin, who is dedicated to cultivation, will accompany them to hang out, so Yalina and Seniel are very wise and do not invite Han Jin at all.
In a clothing store, Arina took a fancy to a white yarn, kept comparing to the coat mirror, and fantasized about what would happen if she wore a wedding dress made of this fabric, and the Holy Crown City was relatively wealthy, but the material level of the entire continent was relatively barren, and it was impossible to have a wide variety of ready-to-wear clothes.
Senel stood in front of the window, smiling and seeing that Arina was stinking there, maybe it was a coincidence, maybe it was a kind of luck, Suniel and Yalina had very different surnames, which was a prerequisite for whether they could maintain harmony between them, and Yalina's 'sister' was not in vain, and recently, when they were together, Shaniel really took care of Arina like a sister.
"Is that okay?" Arina was a little unsure.
"Our Arina looks good in everything. Shaniel laughed.
"Hee-hee......" Arlina proudly put the yarn back on the table, "Sister Xenelle, have you thought about it, what to wear on the wedding day?"
"It's still early. Seniel said, Han Jin's marriage proposal letter has been sent, and Solomon's reply has not yet arrived, and it is estimated that the wedding will be held in a few months at the earliest, after all, it is too far away.
"Time flies!" said Arinna, "you have to be ready." ”
"I'm not as anxious as you. Shaniel smiled and looked away, suddenly spotting a familiar figure, and she hurriedly looked out the window.
"Sister Xenelle, what do you see?"
"It's Gibran and Julia, what are they doing sneaking around there?" said Xenil, a suspicious look.
"Where, where?" Curious, Arina leaned over to Sunil, looked at it for a moment, and exclaimed, "Look at the people over there...... It's Schumann!"
"Maybe there's something special. Seniel said, she knew that Schumann was almost half an intelligence officer, and that he had worked together with Qi Fanke to deal with the Hell Aster Flower in the past.
"We're just going to wait two days?" Gibran frowned impatiently: "Schumann, have you found out their details?"
"I have investigated, and the man who lives here is an old fellow, he rarely goes out, he doesn't seem to have any relatives, and he doesn't hire servants at home, and he lives in such a big house alone...... Something counterintuitive. Schumann said: "I have also done an investigation of his neighbors and the house behind, and there is nothing unusual, as for the woman from the Free Federation...... There's nothing I can do. ”
"Didn't your people go in and inspect it?"
"It's daylight. Schumann said: "What's more, there are at least two high-level professionals in it, my people are useless, otherwise I wouldn't have asked for you." ”
"If they're really from the Free Commonwealth, and they don't have any ill will toward us, aren't we wasting our time in vain?" said Julia.
"It's okay to waste some time. Gibran said: "It is a misunderstanding, and we have nothing to lose, in case they are enemies, and we do not notice them because of laziness or other reasons, that is a fatal mistake." ”
"You're so right!" Schumann smiled: "Before your lord set out on the expedition, he once talked to me, he was going to learn some experience from the head of Gael, and then form his own secret agent, as for the leader of the secret agent, the lord should want to choose between two people. ”
"Who?"
"One is Qi Fanke, and the other is you. Schumann said: "My lord would prefer you to carry the burden, but he is worried that putting these things on your shoulders will affect your relationship with Julia." Ha ha...... Speaking of which, I have another question, Gibran, are you going to have a wedding, do you have any thoughts about Julia?" Although he is young, Schumann is by no means comparable to those ordinary nobles of the second and third generations, etc., he is very good at figuring out people's minds, Han Jin talked to him about this, not to seek his opinion, but to imply that he passed the word to Gibran and let Gibran make his own decisions, so he immediately changed the topic after the task was completed.
Gibran looked at Julia and said, "We originally planned to have a wedding in the near future, but we didn't tell everyone, now ...... We had to postpone it. ”
Schumann immediately understood Gibran's distress, Han Jin was ready to get married, and then Gibran suddenly announced that he was marrying Julia, which inevitably gave people a feeling of wanting to steal the limelight, Gibran and Julia are both reasonable people, knowing that this kind of thing must not be sloppy, even if Han Jin and Seniel don't care, but after all, they are easy to be criticized.
Schumann thought for a moment and said with a smile: "You can secretly hold a secret wedding, and then do whatever you have to do, and make up for it in the future, if you are a little nervous about money, tell me, this thing is not used to scare people." With that, Schumann patted the viscount medal on his chest, showing that he was a wealthy nobleman.
"Phew, what do you mean to do what you have to do?" Julia blushed, "You men don't have a good thing, can you talk about something else?"
"Who do you think I'm for?" Gibran glanced at Schumann with disdain.
When Schumann saw Gibran's head held high and full of confidence, he secretly said in his heart, you kid, haven't you already done it? If Julia wasn't here, he would definitely not save face for Gibran, but now it's not good to talk nonsense.
"Okay, let's talk about something else. Schumann's face suddenly stunned: "That woman, it seems to be going inside!"
"Which?" Gibran looked sideways, his expression changed dramatically, and he dragged Julia past her into the corner.
Schumann was a little surprised, but he could still maintain his composure, he waited in place for a moment, and walked slowly towards Gibran and Julia as if nothing had happened, the attention of all three of them was attracted, and no one noticed that Shaniel and Arlina were watching them from the window on the second floor opposite.
"Gibran, what's wrong?" asked Julia in a low voice.
"It's Eva!" Gibran's eyes twinkled.
"Eva, she's not dead?!" Julia looked surprised.
"Who is Eva?" said Schumann, in a low voice.
"It's the woman you just saw. ”
"Do you recognize her?"
"Of course I do, old friend!" said Gibran, sneering.
Schumann saw Gibran's hatred of the woman, but when it came to his next move, a clear answer must be obtained, Schumann said softly: "Is it the enemy?"
"That was a few years ago, and if it weren't for Qifank, maybe we would have been killed. Gibran said.
"She's a mercenary?" Schumann knew that Gibran and Julia were originally members of the Red Spearhead.
"She's from the Abyss Mercenary Regiment. Gibran nodded: "Her brother's name is Manteqiu, and he is the leader of the Abyss Mercenary Regiment. ”
"Abyss mercenary group?" Schumann was stunned, and then showed a sarcastic smile: "Even if they all came out of the abyss world, they shouldn't be called that, right?
"You haven't been to Lonely Cliff City, you don't know the situation there, the mercenaries have great freedom, and the task of the mercenary guild is to maintain the rules they also have to abide by, as long as they don't violate the rules, no one will interfere with the freedom of the mercenaries, let alone call it the Abyss Mercenary Group, even if it's called 'Kill All the Humans', in fact, this mercenary group has really appeared, but they only have two orcs in total, from the creation to the disbandment, there are always only two. Gibran said: "Mantejou is indeed arrogant, but his strength makes him arrogant. ”
"He's very strong, compared to adults?" Schumann's face changed.
Gibran and Julia glanced at each other, and both saw the sigh in each other's eyes, some things, as long as they were slightly compared, could give people an extremely strong impact. A few years ago, Manteqiu was their number one rival, but now what? Han Jin's growth is too fast, too fast!
"If Mantejou appears in front of Raphael at this moment, hehe...... Perhaps Raphael has not bothered to deal with him personally. Julia smiled: "Don't talk about him, it's worthless, Mantejou has been killed by Chief Gael." ”
"The woman named Eva has already gone in. Schumann said softly, "So, they must be our enemies?"
"Definitely. ”
"Now that their identities have been confirmed, things are much easier, I originally wanted to observe them first, so as not to surprise the beauty. Schumann smiled and said, "Now...... Gibran, you wait for me here, and I'll report to you. ”
"Okay, hurry up!" said Gibran.
Schumann turned around to leave, when he suddenly heard a crisp voice: "Gibran, Julia, what are you hiding here?"
Schumann turned around and saw Suniel and Arlina walking hand in hand, and hurriedly laughed and said, "Miss Suniel, Miss Arlina, why are you here?"
"You answer my question first. Arlina looked around cautiously, her face full of curiosity, and asked in a low voice, "Is there a mission?"
Gibran paused, and said slowly, "Guess who I saw just now? ”
"Who?" asked Arinna.
"Eva!" said Gibran, "do you still have an impression?"
"Eva?" Arlina hesitated, "Abyss Mercenary Regiment?"
"That's right. ”
"Raphael said, isn't she dead?" Shaniel was a little incredulous, "Maybe it's like ......"
"I never doubt my eyes. Gibran said.
"Is it really her?" said Suniel, "Even if she is still alive, knowing that the Holy Crown City is Raphael's territory, she still dares to come here?"
"She's not going to visit relatives and friends anyway. Gibran sneered: "Catch her and you'll understand." ”
"No, they seem to be fleeing!" said Schumann suddenly.
The door had opened, and a carriage had gone out of it and stopped at the door, while Eva and an old man were carrying large bags and small wraps of things, and threw them into the carriage, apparently preparing for a long journey.
"Sure enough...... It's Eva. Shanel saw the woman clearly, too.
"Schumann, you immediately rush back to the Aares and tell Raphael to get him over. Gibran said, "Sunel, are we ......?"
"An old friend is leaving, of course we have to see him off. Shaniel smiled.
Senil's decision is exactly what Gibran wants, a magister, a great elf who has opened the mark of the gods, wants to deal with Eva and Eva's fox friends, and it is not a problem at all.
"Julia?" Gibran looked at Julia, who wanted to hear Julia's opinion again.
"Listen to Suniel. Julia said.
"That old man is also Eva's companion?" asked Senil.
"Yes. Schumann hurriedly replied.
"Anyone else?" said Sunel.
"There should be a woman and a coachman, they are both professionals, I can't see the details of the coachman, but the woman must be a very powerful character. Schumann said.
"Very powerful, woman?" said Sunale, frowning.
"Well, I questioned them deliberately, and they said they had escaped from the Free Federation to escape the war. ”
Although Schumann did not believe the other party's excuses, he told the facts, which had the opposite effect, because he misled Senniel and others.
"The woman was beautiful, very, very beautiful, and she had a ......," Schumann wanted to describe, but Eva in the distance had no chance to give him, and the old man got into the carriage, and the carriage started slowly.
"Schumann, do as we say, you go back and inform Raphael immediately. Gibran said, "Let's go!"
The carriage had only traveled more than twenty meters before it had to stop, and Arina was hovering over the street, her wand pointing at the carriage.
"Miss, you ...... What is this going to do?" the sturdy coachman slowly lowered his whip.
"Eva, after all, everyone has known each other, and it's too rude to leave in such a hurry. Gibran, with a gloomy face, appeared on the left side of the carriage and said in a strange manner.
Immediately afterwards, Senil and Julia also outflanked them, and the passers-by saw the tense situation here, and hurriedly scattered and retreated, but they did not flee, and stayed in the place where they thought they were safe to watch the excitement.
The door was slowly pushed open, and Eva's face was revealed, and she began to look confused, then shocked, then frightened, and then immediately released a magic scroll, and her figure disappeared from the spot, appearing in the door that had not yet been closed, and then disappeared in a flash. Eva is a great magician after all, she can completely unleash teleportation magic on her own, and the magic scroll can buy her time for a second at most, and she will not give up even a tiny second, which is enough to prove how nervous she is.
It's just that Seniel and the others can't see it, and there is a dark smile on the face of Eva, who is rushing at the gate of the courtyard, and then it becomes apprehensive, is it really okay to do this? Unfortunately, the development of things is no longer up to her, and the big man who can't afford to provoke doesn't even want to wait for a day, they have to launch.
The coachman jumped off the frame and shot backwards, followed by an afterimage from the carriage.
Julia snapped, and a green light shot out, chasing after the coachman.
The coachman didn't look back, only threw out a little black flame with his backhand, and the flame fluttered up to meet it, and it was stained on the green mang, and the green mang immediately exploded, and countless vines grew out of it, but they were all black vines, and they were also rotting rapidly while growing.
"Corrosive Touch?" Julia was taken aback, her Dryad Arrow shot very rarely, there was very little chance of being shot down halfway, it was obvious that the other party's strength was much stronger than her, Julia then shouted, "Everyone be careful, he is the Abyss Demon!"
"Arina, alarm!" Shaniel shouted. The appearance of the Abyss Demon made her nervous, although she had asked Schumann to inform Han Jin, she was still worried that Arina had a magic alarm on her, and once it was issued, the entire city would enter the highest alert state, even if the enemy's strength was unexpectedly strong, they should be able to support until reinforcements arrived.
With a flick of her hand, a white light shot straight into the sky, and then exploded with a bang, forming a condensed cloud that emitted a dazzling light in the air, as if it was a conditioned reflex, and the mage towers in the city quickly opened one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the light curtain of the magic shield had covered the sky.
