Section 228 Phantom

"It's not normal. Ah Jin honestly admitted. "Unless it's a bribe to ask me as an intermediary, I really don't know that there are other people in Ludao who will make such a wrongful amount of money. Ah Jin said.

"There is another possibility...... Akin, remember what happened to our General Bayrell the day before yesterday?"

The news of Beller's assassination by the cultists of the Evil God in Eagle Falcon City had long been spread, so Ah Jin immediately realized what Ashruphat meant—this might be a trap.

"It's not impossible...... But now in Eagle Castle...... At this sensitive time, this is not a good time to do it. Ah Jin said. "But it's so mysterious, and it really doesn't feel right. Ashrufat, I suggest you still don't go. ”

"When you say that, I'm a little interested. Ashrufat replied. "Nothing special these days, but I would like to meet this mysterious messenger. ”

Want to meet him...... Who is this mysterious person who also meets the little queen? Because of the overlap in time, it can be confirmed that there are at least two people. In other words, it's a group. Is there such a person in Eagle Falcon City right now who needs to meet him with such a trick? if this is not an assassination trap.

In the next moment, an answer immediately popped into his mind.

......

Whether it was Ah Jin's message or the papers that Aunt Mary had handed over, the time and address on them were the same. All in the dark of the day, in a nondescript tavern in the docklands of Eagle Falcon.

Can't even arrange a tavern in the aristocratic quarter?" thought to Ashrufat as he circled around the tavern, mockingly. But he has the money to give Ah Jin thousands of gold to pass the word......

The tavern is only the one that looks very ordinary from the outside. Moreover, the overall architectural layout, the surrounding environment and other factors also determine that this is by no means a good place for ambush and assassination. In addition, Ashruphat could also see that the people who were drinking in the tavern at the moment were also ordinary people, not deliberate assassins.

At least on the surface, there doesn't seem to be any sinister conspiracy on this date.

Ashrufat looked at the sky, and the sunset on the horizon was still brilliant. It was agreed that the time of Lu was "dark", so he arrived early at this time. However, Ashrufat didn't care about this, and there was no agreement that he couldn't advance.

In fact, what Ah Jin said cannot be said to be incorrect, but at least it is extremely unlikely. In the current Eagle Falcon City, there is no party that is deeply hostile to Aeshurufat. Or to put it another way, there are costs and risks to consider in the case of assassination. For example, the assassination of Bayrell not only did not succeed, but caused the cultists themselves to suffer heavy losses. With Ashrufat's current situation, it seems that he has not yet reached the point where anyone will be desperate to assassinate him.

Eshurufat came to the tavern counter. It only takes one glance for him to recognize the boss as an ordinary person. And the facts have proved this, the mysterious guest just left a commission for the boss to keep the box. So a few minutes later, Ashrufat was taken to a room by a waitress.

"This is the box your friend has set up. The hostess winked at Ashrufat. "Your friend is really generous and wrapped it for two days, saying it's to 'prevent any smell inside'. ”

"Isn't he here yet?"

"It seems so. The hostess said. "Would you like to have some wine first?"

"No, wait until he comes. Ashrufat replied. After watching the waitress leave a little disappointed, he took a closer look at the box room again. In fact, this is really nothing special, just an ordinary box in an ordinary hotel. Ashrufat could be sure that this was not a good place for an ambush and assassination.

He became more and more confused about what the mysterious man was looking for him. Ashrufat sat at the edge of the table when he suddenly noticed a white envelope on the table.

Really...... Was it just a transit point? He opened the envelope and saw the same neat handwriting, with an address written on it.

"On the outskirts of Eagle City?" Ashrufat tore the letter apart. He could feel the faint wind of magic on the letter. Although this letter did not have any additional strength, it was somehow infused with the energy of the wind of magic.

He looked out the window. Although the sunset is brilliant, the time is very short. By this time the light had faded, and night had fallen.

It was getting dark.

The little girl sat on the edge of the table and looked at the strange vase. Today, she has sent someone to investigate, and the final result is that the bottle is "of unknown origin". The mysterious man behind him played a trick of borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, and only after turning around did he deliver things to the door, making it impossible for anyone to track them down.

"The time has come. The little girl looked at the sky outside. It was dark, and it was the time that the note said. For this kind of thing, she has both a bit of girlish curiosity and a bit of anxiety about the unknown. She knew that she could throw this vase directly into the trash can and blow it away. However, she wondered if there was anyone in the Dao who wanted to meet her and Ashrufat at the same time.

Who in this country needs to do such superfluous things?

"Almost, maybe it's really just a joke......" Rhodia replied. As soon as this "joke" came out of her mouth, a pale golden glow suddenly flashed on the vase. Then, right in front of the little girl and Rhodia, a figure emerged from the void.

Even the little girl who was mentally prepared couldn't help but lean back, and almost fell down with a chair.

"It's a phantom!" Rhodia was much calmer, and she reacted immediately. The figure is translucent, not physical at all.

was shouted by Rhodia like this, and the little girl also came back to her senses. At this moment, in front of him was a tall and thin man, with a few wrinkles on his face, a beard, and he looked quite old, but he didn't know why this person didn't have the kindness of an ordinary old man at all, but he had a sharp momentum like a vulture. At this moment, the old man was looking at her with a smile.

"This should be Her Majesty Queen Luvia 61 Angel 61 Macremiz. The old man spoke, his voice clear and pleasant, not at all matching his appearance.

Then the old man, or rather the apparition, made a standard salute.

"I take the liberty of asking to see Her Majesty the Queen in this way. The old man said. "First of all, let me introduce myself, under the name Marven. In the words of the Church of the Gods of the Star Field, I am a Wizard Lord of Chaos!" he gestured. "Please don't panic, Your Majesty, there is no malice at all. ”

Marven raised his head and looked at the little girl, looking quite respectful.

"How did you get here?" the little girl had already settled down a little at this time. "The magicians of the church have said ......"

"Your Majesty, that's all I can say about it. Marven said. "The magicians of the Church have only scratched the surface, and only we know the true meaning of magic. ”

"Are you the wizard lord of Chaos?" the little girl finally came to her senses. "Are you invading my country?"

"I'm very sorry for that. Marven said, and there was really a little apology between the words. "But please believe that this matter has nothing to do with me. In fact, I am also an opponent of this war. He saw that the little girl's face was full of disbelief, so he explained further. "Within us, we are also divided into multiple factions. It is true that my men and I are in the army at this time, but we are all forcibly coerced, and war is not our original intention. This war," Marvin said. "The main promoter and initiator is the Chosen One of the Blood God, the Chaos Lord Bloodfang. He is bloodthirsty and hopes to glorify the god of blood with this war. I tried to stop it, but in the end I couldn't do anything. ”

Marvin saw Rhodia on the side. In fact, it was hard for him not to see it, because Rhodia was standing with the little girl at this time. In addition to the two of them, a third person had appeared in the corner of the room, and it was none other than Laria, who was holding a long sword and was on high alert. Although the little girl broke up the others, Lalia was always on standby, just in case.

"Your Majesty, this is just a magic projection. Laria spoke. "He doesn't really exist here, but only manifests himself in a magical way. Although he can communicate with you, it has no power to harm you. And, whenever you want, you can break that vase to ruin the magic completely. ”

Marven stared at Laria, but didn't speak. His expression changed many times, and finally he turned his gaze from Lalia back to the little girl.

"Your Majesty, what your subordinates say is true. Marven said. Since he has been seen through, he simply made it clear to show his kindness. "As I said, I have no ill will. ”

"And," Marvin continued. "For reasons that you understand, I had to meet you this way. If it bothers you, then please accept my apologies. ”

This should count...... A secret envoy. The little girl has recovered. Since she met and got along with Ashrufat, her psychological quality has improved so much that she is now able to face all kinds of emergencies very well.

Having said that, since the founding of Gruni (in fact, it was long before the founding of Gruni), although Chaos's invasion has been wave after wave, the matter of Chaos sending envoys is the first time in the world. This is because the barbarians do not have a concept of a state, they are divided into countless tribes within themselves, each of which is subordinate to a lord and fights against each other. None of these lords were hereditary, and they were unable to conduct normal diplomatic activities at all.

This is true even for every invading barbarian army. These invading forces are loosely united and simply cannot be negotiated. So there has never actually been any diplomatic contact between the two sides – with the exception of spies.

"What are you coming to me for?" the little girl decided to go straight in and figure out what the Chaos Lord was up to.
