"What's wrong?"

"You don't look like her at all, but—whenever I see you smiling, even for a moment, I always think of Terry. ”

Gianna had heard of the girl -- her full name was Theresa Foxton, and they used to call her Terry. She was the daughter of one of Edras Blackmore's families. She sacrificed her life to help Sal escape.

Orcs have always used songs to record history: Lokamon is used to record family history, Loktra is used to record wars, and Lokverdnor is used to record the life of heroes. Everyone knows that there is only one human in the world who has a song of his own RockeverdNord, and that is Terry.

Gianna bowed her head slightly and said, "I'm honored that you have linked me to her, and I plan to send Colonel Lorena to the North Sentinel to investigate this matter." I'll let you know if there's any news. ”

Sal shook his head: "It's another woman, and I'm really surprised by what humans do. ”

Gianna's tone became cold, and she clenched her wand, "What do you mean by that? Is it true that men and women are not equal in your world?"

"Of course not. I'm not alone. "They are born unequal—as different as insects and flowers." The meaning of the existence of men and women is completely different. ”

Gianna was glad Sal said that. So that she could repeat what Antonidas had said. At that time, she was still an ignorant girl, and she just wanted to be a disciple of a ** teacher. But Antonidas said to her, "If a woman's nature is fit to be a mage, then a dog can sing an aria." ”

As at that time, Gianna said, "It is because we can change our nature that we are human beings and not animals, and don't forget, some people even think that orcs are born slaves." Gianna shook her head. "Of course, there are many people who agree with you, and that's why women have to work twice as hard to get the same status as men - and that's why I trust Lorena so much, because she understands it. ”

Sal craned his neck back at this. He smiled happily: "You're such a lovely woman, Gianna Prodmoore." You made me realize that I still don't know enough about humans, even though I was raised by humans. ”

"These thoughts of yours are caused by the people who raised you. ”

Sal nodded: "Makes sense. We'll talk when your female colonel is done investigating. He walked over to the ship's rope ladder.

"Sal. He turned his head to look at Gianna, who handed him an encouraging look. "We can't let the coalition fail. ”

He nodded again: "Okay, it won't." With that, he climbed the rope ladder.

Gianna recited the incantation alone, a language that only a mage could understand. She took a deep breath. Hill, the ship, Thrall, and Razor Ridge all swirled around her. It was as if her stomach was about to be sucked out of her nose. The surrounding qiē became more and more blurred, and in the blink of an eye, merged into the room she was most familiar with—the council chamber. The council chamber is located inside a large castle, the tallest building in the Theramore.

This is where Gianna deals with state affairs. In this small house there is only one table with scrolls piled high on it. In comparison, Gianna doesn't like to go to the throne very much. She thought it was a flashy place. Even a few times a week to meet with her subordinates, she just paced up and down in front of the large, embarrassing chair, and almost never sat on it—she tried to avoid using the room. For her, the council chamber was like a place where she used to study. There were also messy scrolls piled up everywhere in Antonidas's study, and no one had ever cleaned the table. Gianna felt like a home.

There is another thing that the throne room does not have but the council chamber has, and that is a window with a view. Gianna knew that if she could see Theramore from the window at all times in the council chamber, she wouldn't be able to do anything—because she would be distracted from time to time. One moment I was amazed by the buildings that rose from the plains of Theramore, and the other I was worried about the responsibility I had shouldered.

Teleportation is a high-intensity magic that is very laborious. While Gianna was trained to put her into combat immediately after casting a spell, she was reluctant to do so. She rested for a long time before she called out to her butler, "Defe!"

An elderly woman walked in through the door. There are three doors in the chamber. Two of them are known to all: the door that Delphi had just walked in and the door that led to the hall and the queen's bedroom. The third door is a secret passage and is only used in the event of an emergency evacuation. And only six people know the location of this door, and five of them are the craftsmen who built it.

Defe looked at Gianna through her glasses, "Don't shout, I'll just sit outside the door, as usual." How's the meeting going with that orc?"

Gianna sighed, this is not the first time: "His name is Sal. ”

Delphi waved his arm. This action almost threw the fragile woman off balance. Her glasses also fell off the bridge of her nose and swung along with the lanyard around her neck.

"I know. But his name is also too stupid. I mean, the orcs aren't all called Hell Roar, the Hammer of Destruction. Does Drake Tarn still have Burks? But he took that name, Sal, and he thought of himself quite nobly. ”

Gianna didn't want to explain this, as she had already tried hundreds of times. "It's Drektar, not Drektahn," she said. ”

"It's pretty much the same," Delphi put his eyes back on the bridge of his nose, "that's what orcs should be called." And not Saar. Don't talk about that. How's it going?"

"We're in trouble. Go and get Kristoff, and then send someone to inform Colonel Lorena that she should lead a team to the North Outpost to investigate, and then report back to me. Gianna sat down at the table, trying to find the shipping information she needed from the scrolls stacked on it.

"Lorena again? Why don't you call Lothar or Pierce? Anyone else can do the same—I can't tell. Send a woman to the North Outpost Bunch that is not easy to deal with. ”

Gianna wondered if Delphi had to say that every time Lorena's name was mentioned. "Lorena is tougher than Lothar and Pierce combined. She'll be fine. ”

Defei pursed his lips, it was not good for an elderly woman to do such an action. "You're not right, women shouldn't be wielding knives and guns. ”

Gianna finally gave up looking for shipping information. She looked at her butler and said, "Nor should I run the country." ”

"Hehe, these are two different things. Defe said timidly.

"How is it different?"

"It's just different. ”

Gianna shook her head. It's been three years, and Defi has never thought of a better answer. "Call Christophe before I turn you into a salamander, and deliver a letter to Lorena. ”

"If you turn me into a salamander, you won't find anything after that. ”

Gianna spread her hands in despair: "I can't find anything right now." Where's the damn shipping stuff?"

Deffy said proudly; At Christophe's. Do you want me to go and tell him to bring it?"

"Thank you. ”

Delphi bowed, his eyes falling from the bridge of his nose again. She turned and walked out of the council chamber. Gianna tried to throw a fireball at Delphi, but she gave up. Defy was right - without her, Gianna would find nothing. (To be continued.) )
