Section 227
The goddess of fate's gift has long been secretly marked with a price.
It seems that the succession of victories in the recent period has run out of luck, and Annan's troubles have come unexpectedly: there are voices from within the empire to sanction Annan, and it has affected some seaports that do business with Liberty City.
At the beginning of the first millennium of the Saint Laurent calendar, Annan was in the limelight during this six months. Champion Warlocks, Magical Images and Newspapers, War with the Mad Dog Grand Duke, Freedom Expeditionary Force......
Annan's name frequently bombarded their eardrums.
In addition, Annan also received the title of champion warlock given by the empire...... They hate this kind of glittering and dazzling guy the most!
And the last two issues of "Voices of Freedom" have pushed him to the forefront.
Mebis is one of them.
As a low-level official of the Imperial Ministry of the Interior, Mebis finished breakfast in the kitchen with a poster of "Jack", carried the official bag invented by Annan, passed by the Moonlight Opera House, and came to the office of the Ministry of the Interior.
Ruth's voice came from a colleague's magical newspaper, and Mebis began to get busy with today's business: the expeditionary force suspected that there were nezumi spies within the empire, and as a result, the internal affairs department suddenly had several unsigned reports a few days ago. He and his colleagues were overwhelmed by this. In the evening, when Mebis came home, his daughter was talking about how handsome Jack was at dinner, lying on the bed, and his wife on the pillow said that she wanted the jewel star ornament endorsed by Annan......
In the dead of night, Mebis suddenly woke up.
When did his life become like this!?
That man was about to become three things that humanity could not escape: birth, death, and Annan.
On a new day, Mebis rushed to the Ministry of the Interior and shouted at his superiors: "Annan is encroaching on the empire!" ”
His boss looked like "what nonsense are you talking about".
"I, Annan Potter, want to kill you, the lackey of the Red Devil!" At that moment, a childish shout rang out from behind, and a boy pointed at Mebis with a staff of branches.
"Mebis, this is my nephew."
Mebis staggered a few steps back, this is also an Annan believer!
The turmoil in the Tatoon Empire continued to ferment, with opponents and supporters of Annan attacking each other. The former believed that Annan was corrupting the people of the empire with magical images and magical newspapers. The latter believed that Annan was at the forefront of resistance to the nezumi, and whoever did not speak for Annan was collaborating with the enemy and colluding with the nezumi.
The accusations of both sides gradually turned into a child quarrel:
"What does a seventeen-year-old boy have to do after beating the mad dog Grand Duke and the rat man, and still find out that the Montreal family is an internal ghost? Maybe he's lying! ”
"You say bad things about Annan, you are an undercover agent!"
"The Rikaner Kingdom and the Empire are all flowing with the Montreal family, how can they be betrayed? The real problem is that Annan! ”
"We all know the hatred between Jack and the nezumi, you don't know, you are definitely not from the Empire!"
"Who's Jack!"
"You don't even know Jack, you've got a problem!"
As a result, they did find a nezumi spy: a Interior Ministry official named Mebis who was imprisoned for accepting money to find out information. It is said that the existence of the bribed information has something to do with the nezumi.
Montreal Hill was silent for a moment...... Then it got louder.
Those who suddenly speak out want to prove their innocence in this way, and those who disappear are thieves.
When the situation intensified, Annan allowed the situation to ferment.
The more threatening she is to the nezumi, the safer Maria will be.
And Annan has his own business to do: he has the task of Tydel and Irilanzer giving him.
Under the introduction of the "Elven Mentor", Annan realized what it meant to restart the alliance between the Elven Court and the Elven Court after more than 2,000 years: it meant that the Elven Court restarted the alliance after more than 2,000 years.
Annan was fascinated like never before and began to study the personalities of these three elves.
Ormedo thinks that Annan covets the elves of the elven court, and Etilia thinks that Annan is plotting the wealth of the elven court...... None of them were wrong.
Elves are not a species that will believe whatever you say...... Arrogance is almost in their bones, like greed for money in the marrow of dragons...... It's not their fault. If humans have the gift of elves and can live to be 2,000 years old, they will only be more arrogant than them.
So Annan's plan starts with their common weaknesses:
The Night Elf Morrigan is of blood elf blood, and is irritable and arrogant on the surface, but in fact he has delicate ideas and likes talent.
Lulu, the wood elf, is lively and loves new things, but has no mercy for what she dislikes.
Proud of her bloodlines, Iris prides herself on being a pure-blooded High Elf who can only impress her with more power and art than her.
During this time, Annan tried to contact Morrigan. She did not drive Annan away because of the elves' appreciation of beauty, and because of the arrogance of the elves, she thought that Annan was just a warlock who was not even an elite.
Simply chatting obviously doesn't change their ...... Annan found their common weakness: art.
The elves couldn't refuse the magic images, at least the group of emissaries had seen three magic images.
And it's been nearly six months since Annan Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, and it's time to prepare the fourth magical image.
But Annan has no idea what to shoot for the time being......
At this time, news came from the elven envoy group, and they and the orcs suddenly had a conflict.
The reason for this is that one of the elves of the emissaries came to the coastal streets to admire the bay of jewels. She didn't meet a succubus...... It's a good thing, but the orcs were encountered.
Because of the contradiction between the elves and the orcs in Wilheim, the elves scorned him.
Ordinary orcs may not understand it at all. But the orcs of Liberty City are proficient in the lingua franca and are also educated...... Pretty much the most literate group of orcs in Middle-earth. So not to be outdone, he replied with a sentence of "goblin-like sprouts".
The orc poked the hornet's nest. The angry elves began to look for trouble with the orcs, and the orcs were not to be outdone, or Gal ran to call the city guards to solve the trouble, temporarily.
Olmedo could not capture the emissaries, so he had to punish neither them nor the orcs.
The news reached Annan's ears, and the orcs gave him inspiration.
"A father who has lost his job lives in the city with his son. He knocked on doors everywhere to sell, was homeless, and took care of each other with his son......"
"There's nothing special about this story." Teddell, who was called by Annan for reference, said.
Annan took out a blank notebook and wrote on the cover "When the Orcs Knock on the Door" - it looks like a horror movie.
"Does the story end with father and son being killed by orcs?"
Annan shook his head: "No, they live happily together. ”
"Where's the orc?"
"Orcs are knocking on the door."
