Chapter 602: Elven Refuge
Although Xia Duo did not believe in the Lord of Light, he still meticulously completed the entire blessing ceremony. On the one hand, the Lord of Radiance is a true and great being, and on the other hand, it is out of the duty of a lord.
In Xiado's hometown, there is a saying of "Shinto teaching", that is, to educate the people through the preaching of ghosts and gods, or by extension, to educate the people with the help of mysteries, which is similar in Nessreel.
The Lord of Radiance is true, but it is also true that the Lord of Radiance rules over his people with the help of the teachings of the Lord of Light.
After the blessing ceremony, it is time to distribute the holy water, Xia Duo has the experience of last year, and this year he will be able to do it with ease, handing bottles of holy water to the fanatical lords, and from time to time he will also encourage a few words.
The holy water distribution will continue until the sun sets, and of course it is impossible for Xia Duo and Nia to distribute holy water here all the time, which means that a few clicks will be enough, showing that the lord is happy with the people, and there will be a special temple priest to take over later.
……
Returning to the garden inside the temple again, Xia Duo and Nia no longer just sat and drank tea and chatted, but each took out their own spell notes and entered the state of research.
Occasionally raise your head, sip tea, chat, and plunge into the world of magic again.
I don't know how long it took, but a temple priest suddenly arrived and interrupted Xia Duo's work, "Lord Xia Duo, Lady Patty wants to see you, and she showed your personal badge. ”
"Mrs. Patty?" Hearing this, Nia had already closed the notes in her hand and looked at Xia Duo with an inquiring look in her eyes.
Ahem –
"Let her come here!"
Xia Duo first spoke to the priest who had come to report, and only after he had left did he explain to Nia, "Lady Patty hired me to be a mage advisor to her Chamber of Commerce, and on this day last year, the employment contract was terminated. ”
Last year, on this day, it was the time when he and Nia were married in the presence of the Lord of Light, and as soon as Shado said this, Nia lowered her head and looked at her notes again.
Shado could understand Nia's suspicion that he and Lady Patty were having a bad relationship, and he himself had suspected that Lord Epps and Lady Patty were having a bad relationship!
In this world, a widow who has a lot of money without mastering magic looks like there is someone behind her.
……
After a while, Mrs. Patty came to the tree where Xia Duo was with a fragrant wind, and the fragrance was very good, but Xia Duo frowned, if it was some kind of poison, then he probably couldn't escape.
Or maybe there is a kind of colorless and odorless smoke type poison, don't you even know how to die?
But then, Xia Duo laughed at himself, he was really used to being persecuted, not to mention how rare the colorless and odorless smoke-type poison is, and it may not be able to inhale much when it is scattered in the air.
Moreover, he also has the bloodline ability [Wind Control], which can control the surrounding airspace, and it is not so easy for the poison gas to get close, that is, today is in the temple, so he did not take the surroundings into control.
If it was outside, Xia Duo would at least control the airspace on the surface of his skin, and any smoke would have to pass through at least one layer of airspace filtration if he wanted to get close, and it was almost impossible to poison him in this way.
"Your Excellency!"
Madame Patty's voice suddenly pulled Chardo's thoughts back to reality, and he glanced up at the young and beautiful widow who was still in charge of a chamber of commerce, time had long erased the sadness from Madame Patty, but—
"Mrs. Patty, is there anything that matters if you have to come here in this situation?"
"My lord, I—" Lady Patti was facing Shado, but her eyes were always drifting towards Nia from time to time.
Xia Duo suddenly understood, and answered for her: "You are looking for Nia?" ”
"Yes." Lady Patty seemed to be worried about Xia Duo's blame, and quickly explained, "I have a very important matter that I must report to my lord. ”
Love to read
At this time, Niya finally put down the note in her hand and raised her head, "What's the matter?" Go ahead! ”
"Yes, my lord!"
With Nia speaking, Mrs. Patty finally breathed a sigh of relief, "That's the case, your lord should know the relationship between the Lieton Chamber of Commerce and the elves, yesterday they suddenly contacted me, saying that they wanted to come to Savile Town to live for a while, I didn't dare to agree, I wanted to tell the lord first." ”
"Why don't you dare to say yes? Isn't it just an elf, it's not like Savile hasn't been to an elf, even if it's a temporary stay, it's not a big deal! Xia Duo suddenly interjected.
"My lord, that's not the case."
Mrs. Patty seemed anxious, "They are preparing to come with the whole clan, this has never been the case before, it is unusual!" ”
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?!"
Xia Duo glanced at Nia, just in time for her equally surprised expression, the two had just talked about the war between Comanso and Drow in the morning, but they didn't expect to hear that an elf wanted to come and take refuge in the afternoon.
Is the war going too fast, and the situation is really not good? Or is it simply that the elves are too afraid of death and don't want to take any risks?
"The elf didn't say why they came to Savile for a while?" Or Xia Duo spoke.
Mrs. Patty shook her head, "They didn't say why, they just said they wanted the whole clan to come and stay for a while. ”
"And how many elves are there in their clan? How many casters are there? What level is the strongest? Xia Duo asked again.
Whether it's true temporary residence or true refuge, those elves all want to come to Savile Town, so the number of spellcasters is very important.
The Tower of Time isn't currently in Savile Town, and even if it can go far beyond channeling spell arrivals, this level of spell deterrence isn't much higher for a true spellcaster.
It's better to have as few casters as possible.
It's just that Mrs. Patty's answer made Xia Duo feel pressured, "As far as I know, there are less than a hundred official members of the Silver Leaf family, of which more than half are spellcasters, and the strongest one is an elder of their family, the ancestor of Fairbers, who is rumored to have fought with the Grand Arcanist of Savile. ”
However, Nia suddenly laughed, "The elder you said is called Oberline Silverleaf, right?" ”
"Yes, how does the lord know?" Mrs. Patty was surprised.
Niya didn't reply to this question, she just said, "I know about this, the celebration is still going on, go back, don't refuse them, just let them come, I just have some questions for them!" ”
"It's-"
Madame Patty hesitated, but the lord had already said so, and she couldn't say anything more, so she saluted Shado and Nia before leaving.
……
As soon as Mrs. Patty left, Shado asked Nia, "Is there anything wrong with that Obolline Silverleaf?" How did you mention that name and promise to let the elves come over? ”
"Don't worry, that Oberline Silver Leaf is almost a high-level mage similar to a human."
Bringing up the name again, Nia couldn't help but smile again, "I've seen this name more than once in the notes left by my ancestors, when my ancestors had just come to the south to explore new lands, and a group of elves came to look for trouble.
"At that time, the ancestor was fighting against an elven mage named 'Orlando', and the ancestor won easily, and then a look scared Obolline Silver Leaf, who came to look for trouble at that time, and collapsed to the ground, so the ancestor mentioned this matter in various notes from time to time.
"If the strongest of those elves in the Silver Leaf family is O'Bolline, don't worry at all, after the ancestor disappeared, O'Bolline once secretly came to the Savile Territory, but was discovered by my grandfather, and then taught him a hard lesson, this is O'Bolline's real record of fighting.
"It's probably the high-level mage level of the human race, even if they have improved over the years, it won't be beyond the scope of the Saville Domain's response, but the first-hand information about Drow they bring is more important."
“……”
It turns out that the real situation is like this, Xia Duo listened thoughtfully, and the so-called "Silver Leaf Family" is an elf version of "ordinary people", and the so-called fight is just to put gold on his face.
It's really - elves.
