Chapter 62: The Provocation of the Royal Family of Lake
On the way, Gaia also learned from their conversation that the temple of the goddess Aluti is indeed a very closed religion, although there is a perfect goddess image in the Eden continent, but like Nibes, Sophia, Although Aluti did not directly stipulate that these female priests who had been brought up by religion could not marry men from outside worlds, but under that kind of ideological education, if these adopted women from childhood married men and left the temple of the goddess, they would almost have defected.
Of course, because of their rules, there are also a lot of things like them coming out to spread the teachings, and eloping with men on the mainland, these Gaia are just meditating, overheard the conversation of these three women, how can Gaia always feel that the two younger girls have this tendency, they are very new to everything, and they have been asking this and that while resting in the city on the way, Gaia has to pretend to be patient to explain to them even though she is very helpless, and she thinks to herself: No wonder these beautiful female priests in Aluti often elope with men, these two are also twenty years old, but their hearts are similar to that of little girls, any person with a city government can kidnap them.
After a five-day drive, they finally arrived at the main city of Lake, and the more experienced priest Ni Beth thought that the royal family of Lake was also a chaotic place, and was worried that the three of them would be corrupted by some vices, so they did not accept the hospitality of the Royal Family, but found a more luxurious hotel to live in the main city of Lake, which also had the idea that the two girls had always wanted to visit Lake City, and if they were in the royal family, there would definitely be a lot of constraints.
After arriving in Lake City, Gaia began to look for a way to contact Faizer, but that guy didn't know where to run, and it was indeed difficult to find him in this huge city without the little phoenix, and the sensing range of was also very limited.
The priests of Aluti were indeed fond of beauty, and even Nibes was able to wander the streets of the ornate trinkets for an afternoon and into the night. Of course, Gaia couldn't accompany this kind of boring thing, he practiced in the hotel by himself, and at night, they actually deliberately ran to Gaia's room to let Gaia witness which jewelry was better looking and which one was more suitable for whom.
How stiff and stiff Gaia's expression was, he was not Fei Ze, how could he help these girls identify these, but in order to enter the royal family, he couldn't snub these girls.
"Shall we take off the veil?" the youngest Selma had asked several times, seemingly confident in her beauty. Although Gaia did not ignore them, it could be seen that the young man was very calm and did not have a great interest in them at all, which was a big blow to the beautiful Alluti woman, so Thelma kept trying to take off the veil and use her appearance to attract Gaia's attention.
Gaia didn't have the time to mess around with these women, so after being perfunctory, she found a reason to take them away, the clingy little slave girl Shanshan, and Gaia called out Anni and let the two little girls play around.
Gaia has already inquired about the location of Elmore Academy, this academy is actually in the Warcraft Mountain Range, which is another news that Gaia is very surprised, and the admission conditions of this academy are also very simple, as long as you can find their academy in the Warcraft Mountain Range, of course, the so-called simplicity is just a simple process, if you want to cross from the Warcraft Mountain Range of the Simon Empire to the center to enter the Elmo Academy, it is also quite difficult, and that mountain range is full of powerful Warcraft.
After getting this parchment scroll from the Principality of Lake, Gaia planned to take a trip to Elmore Academy and then retrieve the Life Source Stone, so that his life breath could be fully restored, and he had ten more years of life.
The lifespan of human beings in the Eden Continent is generally only one hundred years, including those who have cultivated to the Sword Saint level, and only after breaking through to the half-body level will their life increase to two hundred years. The cultivation speed of human beings should be relatively fast, but their lifespan limits them, so it is difficult to break through to a higher level.
On the third day after arriving in the Duchy of Lake, Gaia followed the three women to the Imperial City of Lake, and Gaia also noticed a lot of changes in his appearance when he was in the hotel, so he put on a magic robe and made his hair more neat, so he didn't worry that Kuru would recognize him, so he followed the three Aluti women into the Imperial City.
They are here to discuss the issue of the boundary with the Principality of Lake, the location of the Temple of the Goddess of Aluti is at the junction of Charobine and Simon, that is, in the mountains that extend from the Warcraft Mountains, and there are also their own cities in the Aluti Mountains, but with the increase in population, they seem to expand some territories and build a city under the mountains to facilitate communication with the outside world, but now Charlotte is in the war period with Zachariah, and it is very difficult for them to give up some territory.
Ni Bes is more experienced, and they also know that as long as the Lake royal family agrees, there will be no problem, but they are women, and some royal families with not very good styles will always make non-point requirements, which is the most difficult thing for them to accept, but if they don't agree, it will be difficult to reply to the goddess temple, so Ni Bes boldly invited the mysterious young Gaia to accompany him, hoping that Gaia, who doesn't seem to be a bad person, can help them solve this problem, of course, if Ni Bes knows that Gaia is the number one criminal young man in the Eden continent, I don't know how he will feel, and it is estimated that he will never trust the handsome and sympathetic slave from now onγ
When they arrived at the palace of the Imperial City, they were not greeted by Kuru, but by one of Kuru's deacons, and it was clear that the prince had put on a very high posture at the beginning, and he did not know how much compromise he had to make to talk to him face to face from this deacon.
"It's a time of war, and you know how ambitious the Zacharian Empire is, and the land to the south is already in the war stage, if you are cutting out a piece of the southwestern land......" The prince deacon, a man in his thirties, was thin, and after seeing the three veiled women of Aruti enter the main hall, his eyes were always on them, and he kept looking back and forth, and he could see that the three women were uncomfortable.
Gaia stood next to them, and didn't get along with these three women for a long time, but Gaia also believed that they were indeed not bad women, and it was not easy to say that the temple of the goddess Aluti was not easy, in the gap between the four major religions, if there was no better way to do this, these three women might really be sacrificed in exchange for terms.
"We just need that small basin down the mountain, and now it's also a barren ......," Nibis said, this task is actually quite heavy, although Nibeth often deals with some forces, but the Principality of Lake is notoriously mean, and it is impossible to get some land from them without paying a higher price.
"Isn't it true that you goddess temple rarely deal with men, why did you bring a man with you this time?" The prince deacon did not notice Gaia, but changed the topic, after all, the land is indeed barren, this is not easy to say, so I have to put aside this and talk about something else, and this can also make Aluti's people not guess their thoughts, they can also make conditions at will.
Nibeth glanced at Gaia, she had actually discussed the rhetoric with Gaia, so she spoke: "This is a student of Elmore Academy, when we visited Elmore Academy, the vice president felt that it was inconvenient for us three weak women to travel on the main road, so he specially asked this Mr. Lauren to be a guide for us. β
Gaia's current strength is indeed worthy of the identity of a student of Elmo Academy, anyway, he is going to visit the most authoritative academy in the Eden continent, and if he wants to give himself an identity, he has no choice but to consider himself an Elmore student.
"Elmo Academy!" The prince deacon was obviously a little surprised, and only then did he deliberately look at Gaia, only to realize that this handsome magician had a special temperament, and his eyes had been wandering over the delicate figures of the three women before, and he didn't even notice that this man was so outstanding, just a glance could tell that he was definitely not an ordinary person.
Gaia's strange temperament has also been honed for a long time, and the elven life source stone has made Gaia's violent aura a little more restrained, and the whole person seems to be more masculine, no wonder the two women who have no experience will be a little distracted when they see it, and even the prince deacon who has read countless people is secretly amazed.
In fact, for Gaia, who has the general bloodline of the elf race, under the nourishment of the life source stone, he has also slightly inherited some of the unparalleled appearance of the elf race, coupled with the special temperament of the elf race, if you look at it a few more times, it will naturally look very outstanding.
"Yes. "Gaia has also been in the royal family for a long time, and the aristocratic etiquette is also very standard, at this time, he is wearing an elegant magic robe with this elegant etiquette, it is indeed a bit extravagant, of course, this kind of extravagance is not the most attractive, but the bright black eyes, and the melancholy black luster that rotates from time to time will always make people feel a sense of inextrication.
"Then you must be very strong, right?" Recovering from that surprise, the prince's deacon showed that unpredictable look on his face again, and even tried to pretend not to take Elmore House seriously, so as to increase his price.
"Where......" Gaia also said modestly, but he felt that the deacon seemed to have the intention of making trouble for himself, and he had already muttered to the attendant next to him.
"We, the Principality of Lake, have always wanted to have a fight with the people of Elmore Academy, so that we can know how far apart we are from Elmore Academy, and in order to give those proud guards a chance to understand, how about a competition, I hope you can point out these guards. Sure enough, the prince deacon has the intention of provocation, Elmore Academy has always regarded itself as the strongest, and it is also very comfortable to accept the challenges of others, many forces are still not used to it, and this prince deacon really moved this idea.
Gaia tugged at the corners of his mouth, if it's a competition, it's not a big deal, even if it's only magic, even if the prince of Kuru goes into battle, Gaia can teach him a good lesson, of course, he can't be reckless at this time, so he said: "Forget about the competition, this time it's to help the Aluti people complete their mission." β
After Gaia said this, the three women all glanced at Gaia gratefully, and they naturally understood what Gaia meant when he said this, obviously: it is okay to compete in martial arts, and agree to Aluti's request.
"We're not embarrassed by the Aluti Goddess Temple, this matter is really not easy to decide, so let's discuss it with His Royal Highness the Prince, you can sit down and rest for a while......" This prince deacon wants to compete for the sake of the arrogant Prince Kuru, Kuru has always thought that he is absolutely capable of dealing with the people of Elmore Academy, so he really wants to find a chance to fight against them, but he has no chance.
After seeing those people leave, the three women all looked at Gaia at the same time, and Nibes spoke first: "They definitely won't expel people of your age, can you handle it, if not, think of something else." β
"Try it. "Gaia still has a sense of justice, if he sees these three pure women sent into the tiger's mouth, he can't bear it himself, anyway, the competition shouldn't be such a quick thing to solve, you can stay in the imperial city for a while longer, he also has the opportunity to visit the treasure house of the Principality of Lake, and maybe he can get a lot of good things.
Gaia now seems to have developed a good habit of stealing treasures, after all, there are two excellent equipment for stealing treasures, the Concealment Ring and the Enchantment Dagger, if you enter a no-man's land, it is too much to say that you can't see those shining treasures, even if it is to collect some interest from the three empires to jointly exterminate Zacharia.
"Don't do it, that Prince Kuru will definitely make a move in the end, he is a fourth-order swordsman, and this is just a rumor, maybe he still hides his strength." Sophia said worriedly.
Although they were not unveiled, Gaia could probably guess that Sophia should be the most beautiful of the three women, and she was also more reserved, and during the journey, Gaia often noticed that the girl's timid gaze fell on her, and then quickly moved away, and every time she talked to Gaia, her cheeks could be found to be a little red under the veil.
"It's okay, I haven't exercised in a long time. Gaia said nonchalantly, in fact, he would rather compete in martial arts, so that he could collect some interest from the Duchy of Lake.
