Count Culler was a collector, and one of his most important collections was the fine horses of pure blood, for which he built a number of stables in the castle, and the stables used to keep Pegasus were the most luxurious of all. When everyone saw the place where the pegasus was raised, they couldn't help but widen their eyes, where is this stable, it's a holy temple!

The entire stable is made of huge white stone, and there are two exquisite stone sculptures of Pegasus at the door, and if you don't know here, you will think that you have arrived at a temple dedicated to the god of horses. Everyone was a little speechless, this earl's luxury was really too much, even Pegasus wouldn't be so sacred.

The Earl led everyone into the stables, which were different from ordinary stables, not only did not have a trace of smell, but were filled with a faint fragrance, and the whole stable was clean and tidy, not like a place to keep animals. At this moment, a man came out from the depths of the stable and greeted the people. As soon as the Earl saw this man, his eyes immediately radiated a strange light, and he introduced to everyone with a little excitement: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the worldly master I have specially invited to domesticate Pegasus, Miss Exeven. Everyone followed the Earl's gesture to look at the visitor, and immediately showed a look of surprise, the other party turned out to be a female elf.

For creatures living on land, elves are undoubtedly the most favored race by the gods, they are born with extraordinary looks and long life, which makes the always conceited human beings feel ashamed in front of elves, and even many people just need to see elves for a lifetime to talk about. Among them, Hortz and Winnett had been wandering for years, but for the first time, they had seen a man standing in front of them with a spirit.

The elf named Exewin had beautiful silver hair, long hair that hung down to her waist, a tall and slender figure of perfect proportions, and a pair of turquoise eyes as bright as jewels, and she bowed her head softly to the crowd, but said nothing. Count Culler seemed to have become accustomed to her slightly indifferent attitude, and with no displeasure on his face, he warmly beckoned the people to the depths of the stables.

Pegasus is a very free creature, they do not like to be confined in a pen, the place where Pegasus is raised is actually like a pond, the pond is constantly filled with clear living water, the pond is covered with fresh grass, and three white Pegasus are playing freely around the pond. The crowd did not dare to get too close, and stood at a certain distance and watched quietly at the pegasus, which flapped their wings from time to time and let out bursts of cheerful neighing.

The earl proudly introduced: "It took me a long time to collect these pegasus, and there are only about a hundred or so people in the entire continent who have pegasus, and even our king only has three or four, which shows how precious Pegasus is......"

Everyone quickly echoed, but the female elf Exevin had no expression on her face, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.

Hortz felt a little strange in his heart, the elves have never liked to interact with humans, why is this female elf willing to deign to raise Pegasus for the earl, human money and power do not mean much to the elves, why would she be willing to leave her own race and come to the world?

Sawin didn't think Pegasus was very noble, the dragon was the one at the top of all creatures, and the little Pegasus was nothing, as long as he roared, he had to scare these Pegasus into peeing. Sawin couldn't help but have a look of contempt on his face as he thought about it, and suddenly he felt a pair of eyes staring at him, and he looked around to see that it was the female elf, and he saw that she was staring coldly at him with her turquoise eyes.

Sawin just wanted to open his mouth to ask Exewin why he looked at him like this, but at this time, Eliza suddenly walked in front of Exewin, reached out and took the other party's hand and asked, "Can I touch them......?" OK...... But ......before she could finish speaking, Eliza had already run towards Pegasus with a cheer.

Everyone couldn't help but smile when they saw Eliza and Pegasus playing, such a beautiful girl and a white Pegasus together, together is a beautiful picture, who can bear to break such a beautiful scene, even the face of the female elf who has always been cold-faced has become a little gentler.

Leaving the stable, the Count of Cooler insisted on inviting everyone to dinner, which Hotz wanted to refuse, but the Count's warm invitation made him unable to open his mouth, so he had to agree. The Earl's dinner was naturally very rich, not to mention that the wine he treasured was enough to be scary, and in addition to the people of the mercenary group, the female elf was also invited to the dinner, but there was no joy on her face.

During the feast, the Count talked and laughed with the people, although he was noble, he was not a very big man, sometimes laughing, sometimes making some funny expressions, and the restraint of the people was quickly relaxed, except of course the female elf, who rarely spoke except to bow her head and eat. The topic of chatting came and went, and finally returned to the Sun King's headband, Count Cooler said that he had checked the information, and legend has it that the Sun King was a wise king in ancient times, as long as he wore this headband, he could get the blessing of the gods, and he entrusted the mercenary guild to find it, which was given to his nephew, King Lin Kaiguo, as a birthday gift.

Hortz was a little puzzled, and he asked the Earl, "Lord Earl, why do you have to send the headband to us personally, in fact, the guild can also safely hand it over to you." ”

Count Cooler smiled: "Actually, this is a little selfish on my part, I would love to hear with my own ears how you found it, and this process is what interests me." Captain Hortz, can you tell us more about what happened?"

Since the earl made a request, Hortz naturally could not refuse, so he told the clues of how to find it, and how to get it out of the tomb, especially Satin and Eliza's excellent performance. After listening to this, Count Culler said with some excitement: "I really didn't expect there to be so many wonderful stories in the middle, this dinner is really worth it." With that, Count Cooler turned to look at Savin and Eliza and asked, "Savin, how did you stay in the waterlogged tomb for so long, do you know magic?"

"No, no, I don't know magic. Sawan hurriedly waved his hand and replied, "I...... I was just...... I grew up near the water, so I was able to stay in the water for a long time. Sawan told a little lie temporarily, and his heart fluttered.

Count Culler nodded, and asked Eliza, "Are you too, can you stay in the water for a long time?"

Eliza nodded and didn't speak. After receiving the answer from the two, the Count of Cooler suddenly stopped talking, and seemed to fall into deep thought, and the warm atmosphere was suddenly a little cold, and everyone did not know what was wrong with the Count, so they had to eat silently, and no one spoke for a long time. I saw that the earl suddenly picked up the wine glass, poured a large sip of wine, and then said to Hortz: "Captain Hortz, can I ask you for something?"

Hortz put down his knife and fork with some trepidation, and said, "Your Excellency Earl can only tell me if you have something." ”

Count Kule hesitated a little and said: "Here's the thing, there is a lake in my territory called Kule Lake, this lake has always been our family's territory, and it has always been open to fishermen in my territory before, but not long ago, someone suddenly said that there were monsters in the lake. I sent soldiers to investigate, and as a result, a team of people died in the lake, and now the nearby fishermen dare not fish anymore, I would like to ask you to help me investigate this matter, I think since Savin and Eliza are so good at water and so skilled, I think you will be able to investigate for me. ”

"This ......" Hortz was a little undecided for a while, it stands to reason that there is no reason to refuse a task when he comes to the door, the mercenary guild does not prohibit the mercenary group from accepting the task privately, but the task accepted privately cannot be recorded in the guild, what Hortz is really worried about is that this task is not what he is good at, if he pins his hopes on two newcomers, this is somewhat unsettling.

Count Cooler thought that Hotts was worried about the remuneration, so he hurriedly added: "In terms of remuneration, you can rest assured, I will not treat you badly." ”

Hortz hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Lord Earl, what I'm worried about is not the question of remuneration, but ...... We haven't done this kind of task before, so I'm afraid we won't be able to complete it......"

Earl Kuler sighed when he heard this: "To tell you the truth, in fact, I have also entrusted other mercenary groups, but the answer is that they are not good at underwater tasks, so this matter has not been solved......

At this time, Sawan swallowed a mouthful of food and said confidently: "No problem, Lord Earl, we will definitely be able to do it." Eliza, who was next to Savan, also nodded, agreeing with Savan's statement.

Hortz sank his face and said, "Samhain, don't joke around. ”

"Commander, I'm not kidding, leave this task to me and Eliza, no problem. Sawan said in a big way.

Hortz was about to teach Savin a lesson, but Winnett, who was beside him, pulled the corner of Lahots's coat and said, "Since Salen said it's okay, let him give it a try." ”

Hotz was still a little hesitant, but Count Cooler had already clapped his hands and laughed: "Okay, okay, this matter is so decided, you just need to open your mouth, I will definitely let people cooperate with you." Don't worry, I'll send a team of soldiers to help you. ”

Sawan grinned and said, "Lord Earl, you can rest assured. ”
