The sky was overcast, and although it hadn't snowed yet, the cold had already begun to invade the area.

Although Jinwu City is close to the south, it is already early winter, and the weather here has become chilly.

Griner finished his day's work and walked out of the Treasury Building.

Grinard, who was in his thirties, was one of many accountants under the Marquis of Billingbyer, and he lived not far from the Treasury Building.

It was a good day, no overtime, Griner looked up at the sky and decided to take a detour to Spice Street to buy some spices.

He did not call a carriage, but walked slowly with his head down, when a voice stopped him, "Hello, sir, how do you get to Horseshoe Street?" ”，

The voice is the standard Qinglan accent, Horseshoe Street? His home was on Horseshoe Street, and when he looked up, he saw a teenager asking for directions.

Pointing in the direction of Horseshoe Street, Grinel said, "From here, it's two blocks away." ”

"Oh, thank you sir. Again, if you count from here, is the house number of Horseshoe Street even or odd? ”

The voice asked again, and when he heard this, Griner raised his head, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and began to look seriously at the owner of the voice, only to see a teenager smiling at him,

The boy was dressed in an old-fashioned costume and carried an old-fashioned box in his hand, the slightly old-fashioned clothes and boxes did not look gorgeous, but if a knowledgeable person could see at a glance that the box in his hand and the clothes on his body were old-fashioned and luxurious, such an outfit showed that the boy was of extraordinary origin.

This is the image that Lazia has carefully designed for herself, a fledgling child of a family.

Uncle was right, a young man who had reached a high-level transcendent realm before he was twenty years old, and his words about pretending to be a mercenary were too attention-grabbing.

The young man's smile was like the rising sun, which made people feel warm at the sight of it, and Grinard said: "What singular and even numbers, walk through here, just count the past." ”

The young man smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I'm sorry, I thought this place was also like Qinglan City, from this side it used to be a singular number, and from this side it used to be a double number. The boy gestured with his hand as he spoke.

Griner looked at the boy and said nonchalantly, "Oh, young man, are you from the imperial capital?" ”

The boy replied, "Yes, sir." I've just arrived here from Qinglan City. ”

Again, Grinard casually asked, "Oh, did you have anything to do with your coming to the Golden Sycamore?" ”

The boy then replied, "My family told me to come to Jinwu City to buy some golden thorn fruit, golden leaf and pear blossom gold. ”，

All three items have a gold letter, in the first, second and third positions,

"Oh, the Golden Thorn Fruit is a specialty of the Golden Thorn City, we are very difficult to see here, the other two things you should go to the Sycamore Avenue to see, how can you go to Horseshoe Street?"

"I went to Horseshoe Street to find an old friend from my family, who lives there."

Grinard said, "Well, I happen to live over there, so why don't I take you there." ”

"That's great, thank you, sir." ，

With that, the two walked side by side towards Horseshoe Street.

Along the way, the two talked and laughed, like old friends for many years, and came to Grinar's door, Grinard tilted his head and said, "Go in and sit?" ”

"Okay." Lazia smiled and nodded,

When the two came to the house, the expression on Grinel's face became serious, and Lazia took out a copy of "History and Research of the Noble Family Territories and Family Coats and Arms of the Rin Wind Empire" from her bag and handed it to Grenall.

Grinel took a copy of "Fundamentals of Accounting" from the shelf, put the two books together, and after the two of them turned the book to a specific page, Grinel recited the incantation,

The two books glowed brightly, and in the light, a vague figure appeared above each of the two books, and the two figures overlapped together to reveal a clear face, the portrait looked exactly like Grinar, except that a pair of glasses were missing from the bridge of the nose.

Grinard stared intently at the figure, and the figure reached out and took out a pair of glasses from Lazia's book, and the figure put them on, and then nodded at Griner,

Seeing this, Grinel knelt down on one leg and said, "Glory is my life!" Your Excellency, it's finally waiting for you! ”

The starry lights came on, and Neo stood at the castle and looked into the town, after more than a year of construction, the town showed a prosperous scene, and now it was past dinner time, but the streets were still full of people,

The pubs and restaurants are also bustling, and the sounds of the guys greeting the guests and the noise of the guests are intertwined, making the town even more lively.

The lamp was lit in the study, and the sky outside the window was gradually drifting with snowflakes, and Neo picked up his wine glass and shook it gently.

On the table, an Imperial Call-up Order, which everyone had been talking about for a long time, was on it.

Accompanying this conscription was an old acquaintance, Cliff Sanben, the second son of the Duke of Cradolig.

Originally, this kind of errand didn't need Cliff Sanben to go out in person, but this year, Maple Grove Town has sprung up, and the agreement between Neo and Prince Rhoderan has also been rumored to the world, and everyone in the Wind Empire is paying attention, so Cliff Sanburn came in person on the order of his father.

Cliff Sanben picked up the wine glass in front of him and said, "Lord Neo, this time against the Abyss Demon, you are in the spotlight. The last time Prince Rodland returned to the imperial capital and told everyone about the demeanor of the adult, everyone in the imperial capital applauded the adult. Of course, there are also people who do not fully believe the prince's words, thinking that the prince is deliberately exaggerating."

Cliff took a sip of his wine, and then said, "With the intelligence of an adult, I must know who did it. As the so-called wood shows in the forest, the wind wants to destroy it, and there are many people with ulterior motives, so Lord Neo still needs to pay more attention. ”，

Neo smiled and said, "Thank you Second Son, I'll pay more attention." However, on the battlefield, the main test is one's own cultivation, as long as there are no problems with the scheduling and support of logistics, then there is no need to worry too much. ”

"My father sent me here to tell Lord Neo that he will lead the army this time against the demons, and that one of the two deputy commanders of our Northland coalition is Lord Neo's old friend, Marquis Mario. ”

Neo asked, "Oh, aren't there two marquis in command of my coalition forces in the Northlands?" ”

Cliff Sanburn said, "It was. However, this time, Lord Neo, as the patron of the goddess of ice and snow, is going to fight for my northland, which has attracted the attention of all parties on the continent."

"In order to ensure that no other factors interfere with the adults, my father asked His Majesty Ferdirando for his order, and he will lead the army of this battle,"

"Marquis Mario was also highly recommended by Prince Rhoderan to serve as one of the two commanders of my Northland, and those southerners originally had a lot of opinions about this, but then my father and Archbishop Higgins of the imperial capital brought out the goddess of ice and snow, and they gave up."

"However, my father is only a commander and dispatcher, and he will not personally fight."

"Archbishop Higgins?" Neo asked, confused,

Cliff Sanburn smiled: "Lord Neo doesn't know, Archbishop Higgins is the archbishop of the Holy Sect of Light in the imperial capital of St. Lawrence Cathedral, and he is a student of Archbishop Langananus. ”
