The first floor of the Alchemy Tower.
Hue lay on the ground, gasping for breath.
He was exhausted.
In order to achieve the best fit with the angel's wings, it must be used constantly, allowing one's body to gradually get used to the pain of the extended limbs.
Although Electra claimed that repeated use would reduce the pain and eventually become one, so far the pain had only been reduced enough to keep Xiui from passing out.
Lilith on the side wiped the sweat from her forehead in distress, in her eyes, most of the time this teenager appeared with a cunning, intelligent and calm face, she rarely saw such a tenacious and tenacious side of Xiuyi. But it was precisely because of this that she realized what a huge amount of effort it took for Xiui to survive on that island.
It is this huge dedication that has allowed him to come so far, and he has been so deeply infatuated with him.
"You don't have to work so hard. Lilith whispered softly, the former little pepper stood in front of Hue and became a gentle kitten, with endless tenderness in her words.
"We don't have much time, I have to get used to Angel Wings as quickly as possible, and the improvements it has given me have been significant. Xiu Yi replied with a leaning body.
"I had a new garment made for you, with two diagonal slits at the back, so that you don't have to be naked when the Angel Feather Cloak is deformed. ”
"Thank you. ”
"Your politeness makes me unhappy. ”
Xiu Yi froze slightly.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, but fortunately, at this time, Buckler strode in from the outside: "You'd better look at this thing, Xiuyi." ”
A copy of the sticker flew into Xiuie's hands.
"Which one?" Xiu Yi asked casually. During this time, the Dardanelles family received a lot of invitations, but most of the time it was Hotin who was in charge of socializing. The Dardanelles family's exhibition in Winrington is growing day by day, and their fame is thriving.
"The Royal Palace. Buckler replied: "The Frank Empire and the Reims Empire shook hands and made peace with the little duke, and the prince will marry the prince Franck." The little princess invites you to the reception banquet the day after tomorrow, which is a banquet to welcome Her Royal Highness Prince Franck, organized by Her Royal Highness the princess herself. ”
"Avril?" Huey was surprised. She's going to get married, marry a Franck, and the news shocked him a little dizzy.
"How could Princess Lance marry a Franco?" said Lilith.
Buckler shook his head: "We don't understand political things, but Huey, I don't think you can go." Princess Avril won't invite you to a banquet for no reason, she must be suspicious of your identity. ”
Xiu Yi immediately said: "Suspicion is just suspicion that too many people will doubt me, but that doesn't mean anything." ”
After thinking about it, Huey said, "The Brian Dardanelles family in Winrington brought everyone the impression that they would break into high society at all costs. Her Royal Highness Princess Avril Lavigne has invited us, and that is an affirmation of us. If we don't go, we'll be suspected. All our efforts will become meaningless. If the Dardanelles can obtain the recognition of the royal family, it will be great news for the entire family. At this time, I only need to declare to the outside world that I will never enter the Alchemy Tower, and our marriage plan will go very smoothly. I have to go for it from the family point of view. ”
"But ......"
"Second, the Reims Empire negotiated peace with the Francks, and the external pressure would be greatly reduced. There is no external pressure, no matter how noisy it is, it can't turn up the big wind and waves. This is definitely not good news for me. We should find a way to break the marriage. ”
"Thirdly, although I don't know why the Franks would marry Avril, I'm sure Avril herself wouldn't like it. Regardless of her emotional problems, no princess would ever be willing to marry in a foreign country. I owe Avril Avril that I might not have made it out of the island alive without her. She probably came to me to ask me for help. ”
I have to admire Xiuyi's wisdom to see the essence of the problem clearly in just a few minutes.
Buckler nodded: "You're right, but what if your Royal Highness sees through it?"
"If she sees through it, she may not be able to say it. As long as Avril doesn't want to get married, she won't expose me. Of course, it's always bad to let her see through, but anyway, the Dardanelles now have a chance to form an alliance with the princess. I can't afford to miss this opportunity and I'll let Avril know that I'm not who she thinks I am, but that I can help her do what she wants to do. Neither the two empires can be married, either in public or private, so we must help Avril out of her predicament...... Break the armistice!"
Lilith looked at Huey in a daze. Although Xiu Yi said it righteously, at that moment she suddenly had a feeling that all the reasons were only superficial. The fact that Avril is going to marry is an incomparable shock to Xiuyi's heart.
All rational analysis may be just grandiose excuses, and behind the seriousness may be a deep affection.
It's just that Xiu himself doesn't want to admit it, and Lilith doesn't want to expose it either.
Buckler had no room for refuge with Huey's claims, and he nodded, "Okay. ”
"So...... The Dardanelles family will attend the reception banquet the day after tomorrow. Hue Igler will also be the suspect that Weston swept me away. Let Winrington tremble in the storm. Xiu Yi said in a calm tone.
Gently raising his left hand, a hurricane formed in the palm of his hand, blowing towards the endless distance.
Huy Glaire's wind spell is finally level four.
**——— "You said that Her Royal Highness the Little Princess invited the Dardanelles?" Raschel's face was a little strange.
Pudge nodded: "Yes, since that time at the Academy of Magic, Her Royal Highness the little princess happened to meet Siseda Daniel, she asked me to investigate this person. Now she is going to hold a banquet again, and she has specifically named the heirs of the Dardanelles family to participate. Although we all know that Her Royal Highness is free to choose guests, to be honest, the Dardanelles are not qualified enough to have the princess personally nominate to attend the royal banquet. ”
Raschel leaned back in his chair and put his feet on the desk: "It's very interesting, the smell of a bone attracts two wolfdogs. ”
Padgett's face changed slightly: "Raschel, pay attention to your words. And you can't be sure whether Sisserdar Daniel is Huey Glare or not. There are indeed similarities between them, but there are thousands of young people in the world, and there is not only one excellent young man, and there is no point in the plain suspicion of Dashedanelle!"
"Don't worry, my old friend, I can't be sure, but that doesn't mean I can't be sure. ”
"You think you have a way?"
"A lot. Raschel grinned, "I'm just looking for the right moment." ”
"You have made a lot of fame these days, and I have been under a lot of pressure to protect you, if you don't show some results, I'm afraid you won't have to be responsible for this case in the future. ”
Raschel's face darkened: "Be patient, my friend. ”
"I have the emperor, Your Majesty may not have. You know, because of the Royo City, the empire had to stop the war, and the price was heavy enough. ”
"Okay. Raschel stood up: "In that case, Padget, come with me, and I'll take you to meet a few people." ”
Raschel led Padgett out of the Attorney General's Office.
There is a small shop on the opposite side of the building.
Raschel led Padgett into the shop, greeted the guys inside, and asked in a low voice, "Are you there?"
"Yes. The guy nodded.
Raschel walked inside.
After entering, Padgett realized that it was a dark room. Raschel stared at a wall for a long time, as if he had activated something, and the wall opened like a door, revealing a descending staircase and a deep tunnel.
To Padgett's surprise, there were several people standing at the Yongdao crossing, none other than the four samurai who survived the Battle of Royo City, such as Tempest, Arilon, Adam Otten, Alec Hanley, and Cressida Kirk.
"Arilon, why are you here?" Padgett and Arilon are both Imperial warriors who serve the Empire, and naturally know each other.
Alilon replied coldly: "Spark Prison is over, Royo City is over, I was reprimanded by the Empire and lost face." Raschel approached us and wanted to work with us. There is no end to the death between us and Huy Glare. ”
Padgett looked back at Raschel, "What are you trying to do with them?"
"Don't worry, old friend Aarlon, they're my new assistants. ”
"New assistants, and what about Chakrea?"
Raschel laughed: "They are no longer trustworthy, I suspect that they are in collusion with Huigler, don't worry, it won't be long before I can prove it." ”
"Really, what are you going to do?"
"Don't worry, I'll take you to meet the others first. ”
"Anyone else?"
"We can't deal with Hue Egler alone, and he needs a real strong man to step forward. Alilon said coldly.
The strength of Alilon, who is also an earth warrior, is definitely not weaker than that of Padget. Let Arilon say the words of the real strongman, Padget's heart trembled slightly.
He looked at Raschel: "Where else can you find a strong man?"
"Follow me and you'll know. Raschel beckoned to Pagett and walked deeper into the corridor.
Ayron and others followed.
Raschel said as he walked: "Over the years, the Department of Justice has been mainly responsible for maintaining local law and order and arresting criminals. But criminals are not all weak and deceitful, on the contrary, most criminals are quite strong. In order to deal with these powerful criminals, the Legal and Political Affairs Department has never given up on attracting some truly strong people to serve itself. These powerful men are not really affiliated with the Department of Justice and Political Affairs, but they have a good relationship with each other and can ask them to help if necessary. ”
Raschel turned back to Padgett and smiled, "It's not easy to call these people, not only with the consent of the Director, but also with their own consent. If it was a task they didn't want to take, the Administrator's order would be useless. It took me a lot of time and effort to curry favor with them, and I finally got the guys to agree to do it. ”
With that, Raschel had led Padgett to the basement entrance.
Pushing open the door, Padgett saw three people sitting there.
An old man, a middle-aged man, and a young man in red.
The moment he saw Padgett come in, the middle-aged man smiled slightly: "It's been a long time since I've seen Padgett." ”
"Lord Hampton!" Padgett shouted.
In this basement at the moment is none other than Alexander Hampton, one of the five great stars of the Empire.
The strongest existence under the Sanctuary of the Star Strong.
There are only five known star warriors in the entire Reims Empire, who are scattered throughout the empire. With the exception of one Star Samurai who held a position in the Empire, the other four were all idle clouds and wild cranes who refused to serve the Empire.
The strength has reached the point where the stars are strong, and most people will no longer be slaves. None of the four holy domains of the empire had an official position in the empire, five star warriors, four seventh-level mages, only two had official positions, and about one-third of the sky warriors and sixth-level mages had no official positions.
The higher the strength, the less the ranks.
This is also the reason why the guard commander beside the dignified princess can only be an eighth-level earth warrior.
Of course, these strong men, although they do not have official positions, are not taken lightly wherever they appear. The localities would treat them as they would have treated their superiors. Occasionally, these strong people will also be entrusted with solving some minor troubles for the local area.
If the country encounters a big trouble that cannot be solved, then the empire will also hire these strong men to serve the empire for a short time. This kind of short-term service is welcomed by the strong. Although they do not have official positions, most of them are saddled with some other positions such as guest secretaries. For example, Hampton himself was nominally a member of the Imperial Royal Templars. The so-called Royal Sanctuary is for those strong people who are above the seventh level and do not want to officially serve. All the strong people come here even if they are registered in the empire.
Padgett's known five star powerhouses, Rylanthlot, returned to the south after surviving a battle with the Sanctuary powerhouse Banister, and was the only one who did not accept the position of Templar Veteran. There are also four who serve in the empire, serving as the important task of protecting His Majesty the Emperor, serving as the commander of the royal guard, and one who accepts a short-term commission in the emperor's ** and sits on the battlefield. One of the remaining two is being invited by the family's disciple Houjin to search for Siegler all over the world.
The other one was the middle-aged man Hampton who appeared in front of him.
Although there is no official position, in the face of the real strong, everyone will seriously shout an adult, which is a respect for strength. Alexander Hampton is currently the third-ranked star powerhouse in the Reims Empire, known as the Moonlight God of War. It is said that Hampton loved nothing more than to fight on the night of a full moon, and no one could defeat him at night.
Padgett didn't know how Raschel invited this star powerhouse out, but at this moment, he faced the Hamptons and said respectfully: "I met adults ten years ago, but I didn't expect them to remember me. ”
Hampton smiled and nodded: "You are a gifted warrior, but you have never broken through the mundane for several years, which affects your state of mind, and trivial matters make your cultivation time reduced. ”
"Yes. Padgett replied ashamedly.
Hampton's reaction to Raschel's arrival was immediate: "Are you ready to act? Raschel?"
"Yes. Raschel nodded: "Her Royal Highness the little princess has invited the Dardanelles family to the banquet. I think Huey Glerle will show up then. ”
"Why?"
"There is a deep friendship between Hue Igler and the little princess, and this Padgett can attest. The little princess wants to marry him, and he should always have a reaction. ”
"What if he doesn't come?"
"Then we'll force him out. You know, I've prepared enough bait, and this time I'm ready to throw one or two first. ”
Hampton lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "Harden family?"
"Yes. ”
"It's a good idea. Hampton nodded.
"It's a great honor to have your approval. In the face of the starry powerhouse, Raschel didn't dare to be too presumptuous. He turned to Padgett and said, "I need you to prepare a note for me so that I can attend the little princess's banquet." ”
"That's fine, but ......," Padgett hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Although Lord Hampton is a star powerhouse, as far as I know, Huyglare is now very powerful, and he once had two Sky Warriors by himself. Wouldn't it be better if you could have prepared a little more?"
Although Padgett didn't say it explicitly, he implied that he was actually asking about the strength of the other two people.
Hamp
Dun stretched out his hand and pointed at the old man beside him: "Kinnesh, a very capable ** teacher, he never disappoints, because he is a prophet. ”
The prophet Padgett was shocked.
Although the Prophets are not combative, they possess extraordinary insight and a keen sense of danger.
It's just that the prophet doesn't belong to any of the big 6 magic systems, and the cultivation of prophecy can't be followed, except for the prophet himself, no one understands what kind of existence prophecy is. The only thing that is certain is that the Prophet is definitely a rarer existence than the top masters, and each of them is a national treasure-level existence.
Padgett didn't expect Raschel to find a prophet to serve him.
"I've seen the master. Padgett hurriedly saluted the old man: "Your arrival will leave Huy Glare with nowhere to escape. ”
The master prophecy Kinish shook his head: "You're welcome, prophecy is not that magical, we can't see anything concrete, we can only vaguely grasp the pulse of future changes, and then make some speculations. Even so, it would take all sorts of ** conditions to allow me to use prophecy. ”
"It's enough. Raschel laughed.
Hampton pointed to the young man in red beside him, "His name is Danny Dalimore, and he is also an alchemist. ”
Dalimore Pagett was shocked by the oldest alchemy family in the Lance Empire?
This family is not rich in strong martial arts, but there will always be some genius alchemists, and a considerable number of them will enter the palace to become royal alchemists. Considerable influence in the Empire. Until now, there are many extraordinary alchemy techniques that are still in the hands of this family, and they are not kept secret.
Andrew is the son of the Dalimore family.
Padgett didn't expect that the young man in red would be a member of the Dalimore family.
At this moment, the young man in red slowly raised his head: "Andrew is my second uncle, but I didn't come to avenge him, because I haven't seen him at all, and I don't care about him." The reason why I accepted Raschel's invitation was because I often heard people say that the most talented alchemy boy in the Reims Empire was called Hue Igler, and I was not convinced. I'll let people know that I, Danny Dalimore, is the first day alchemist of the Empire. ”
