In the evening, Lothar, who had left the Imperial Library, was holding a thick brick-like book, and on the cover of it was the book of Cronos, a golden Greek script.

It contained most of the savings that Anna had accumulated over the years, fifty thousand gold coins of Souleds, not a single cent.

Anna was wealthy, but she had more priceless treasures, or valuable potions and materials, and the coins that could be called upon at any time were not as many as she was.

The book uses the technique of spatial folding, and it goes without saying that it is the legacy of Anna's predecessors.

Lothar is only on temporary loan.

Inside the Imperial Library, looking at Lothar's distant back, Anna sighed softly.

She really wanted to find a powerful arm for the empress, so that she could save herself.

In the Eastern Empire, it is not difficult to be a mediocre empress, such as Empress Zoe, a fool whose power is hollowed out by her lover.

But it would be too difficult to be an empress who aspires to revive the empire, surpass the three emperors of Komnenos (Alexios I, John II, Manuel) and wash away the Dukas's demerits (Constantine X, Michael VII).

In this regard, Lothar is definitely better suited as a good helper than her.

…

When Lothar walked into the antechamber, Jeanne was lying leisurely on a chaise longue with a wine glass on the small table next to her, which was a dark red liquor.

Her legs were cocked, and the hem of her skirt was pulled up high, revealing large patches of smooth wheat-colored skin.

"I came back pretty early."

She picked up her glass and motioned, "Would you like a drink?" ”

Lothar frowned: "You should also pay attention to your image, how to say that it is also the Holy Joan of Arc in the eyes of countless believers, the Grand Master of the Holy Church Knights." ”

Jeanne gave him a blank look and sneered, "The holy woman is to keep her chastity. ”

Lothar: "..."

"Forget it, do whatever you want, I'll go see Cellynina, and if she's ready, we'll have a trial tonight."

Jeanne said confidently: "No problem, I now have half the strength of the heyday, as long as the wolf lord does not end up in person, the rest is easy to deal with." ”

Jeanne is the absolute main force of this combat record, her Holy Radiance is already good at dealing with dark creatures, plus the talent "Divine Blessing" has an additional damage increase of 50%, and the extra blessing of the Holy Lance.

If the wolf lord can deal with it, it's really not a big deal.

When he arrived at Celinina's room, she had probably just finished a shower, and she was wearing a loose silk shirt, flicking her long wet hair back and forth, and many of the splashes of water splashed on Lothar's face, making him subconsciously think of a puppy that had just finished a bath.

This gesture really has nothing to do with elegance.

"My lord, I didn't notice you."

"I'm sorry."

With an apologetic face, she handed over a towel, her tail swaying back and forth a little uneasily.

With her vigilance, it would have been impossible to ignore his proximity if she hadn't subconsciously classified Lothar as an absolutely safe target.

"It's okay."

Lothar's eyes were focused on her ears, which were wet, and she didn't know if water would get into the shower.

He's not a beast ear controller, he's just curious about it.

"Are you ready?"

Cellinina was visibly hesitant.

Last night, she mentioned that until now, her head was still a mess, all thinking about how to face her people and her father, and she didn't think about how to complete this trial.

"I don't know, anyway, everything is up to you."

"Then let's upgrade first, is it convenient for you now?"

"Of course."

She hurriedly opened the door and motioned for Lothar to come in.

"No, you haven't completed the trial yet, it's just a simple upgrade, and it's not an elitist, so there won't be any special movements."

Lothar spread out the thick book, and more than half of the gold coins stored in it, piled up in a small mountain, turned into golden streamers and gathered on Cellynina.

There was very little left, just a few thousand gold coins.

"Have dinner together in the evening, and we'll have a trial?"

"Okay."

Cellinina looked at Lothar's distant back, and felt relieved for no reason.

She is not a person who is good at making decisions, she was once trained according to the killer, although she is a princess of the family, but she obviously does not belong to the decision-making level.

So, for this feeling of having someone to help you make decisions and think about yourself, it is very comfortable.

The night is getting darker.

Lothar and the others went back to bed, ready to sleep.

Lothar turned to the side and looked at Prajna, and he could see that Pranya's cold eyes were staring at him without blinking.

So he said: "Don't worry, there will be no more accidents this time." ”

"I'm feeling a little sleepy."

In Prajna's tone, there was a rare little confusion, this kind of sleepiness was really a little strange to her who had never slept a long time ago.

"Then go to sleep."

As she spoke, Lothar felt a wave of sleepiness in her body, her upper eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and the scene in front of her gradually blurred with the gradually closing eyes of Prajna and the narrow black eyelashes.

The system's prompt sounds.

You are about to participate in the promotion trial of Hu Cong, and refine the first stage of the combat record - the wolf civil war.

You can choose to join this Combat Record Trial as many people as you like.

The heads of Prajna, Hans, Friengira, Jeanne, Curles, Cellinina, Uldin, Marles, Hogg and other servants appeared before his eyes.

It's easy to decide.

Lothar directly eliminated Males the blacksmith and Uldin, the ascetic.

Although these two people also have a certain amount of combat effectiveness, Lothar only gave them a small promotion of twenty levels when they were financially rich before, and this level of combat power can't even beat an elite wolf clan, and if there is a head-on conflict, they will definitely be held back.

You're about to load into the World of Combat Records.

Please wait.

The scene before Lothar's eyes was completely darkened.

…

Jerusalem.

Hans pressed the sword at his waist and led a group of royal knights to patrol the palace.

He suddenly felt a dizziness in his head, and a very rising sleepiness made him want to fall asleep at once, and this sleepiness came so quickly and so violently.

The words came to his mind: "Honorable Knight Hans, the lord to whom you serve, Lothar von Habsburg, is calling you into the world of trials, and if you accept it, find a place to sleep at once."

"Did the adults recruit me?"

Hans did not hesitate, immediately explained a few words to the soldiers around him, and rushed straight to the residence of the royal knights in the palace to prepare for sleep.

…

Deep under the sea, corals of all colors shimmer and fluoresce.

Captain Hogg is translucent, wearing a captain's hat crookedly.

He walked on the bottom of the sea, as if he were walking on the ground.

Walked straight into the giant galleys in front of me, which had been disemboweled.

"Tsk, this broken ship has sunk in such a place, but it really makes me easy to find."

Captain Hogg had previously found a treasure map fragment during a raid, and it was said that the twelve pirates had found the remains of a shipwreck under the sea, and due to limited manpower, they could not share the spoils, so they joined forces to draw a treasure map, and each kept a piece of it.

During this time, Captain Hogg was also unlucky, and he managed to put the twelve pieces together.

Then I followed the clues and went south along the Gulf of Aden, which took half a month.

Inside the wreck, there were rotten silks and wooden barrels, which were once probably filled with priceless spices, but now they were all a pile of garbage, and only those lovely golden coins, piled up in rotten wooden boxes, and shining gold bricks, were truly treasures that never decayed.

Captain Hogg's eyes lit up.

For pirates, the search for wealth is a lifelong instinct, even if they have been reduced to the living dead with no senses of touch, smell or taste, and only sight and sound.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a wave of sleepiness hit him.

Captain Hogg's eyes were hazy for a while, and this long-lost sleepiness was really nostalgic.
