Chapter 38: Fate and Matches
Next to the huge iron fence under the high wall of the eastern courtyard, Russell had no intention of returning to the airship. While smoking, he took out a solid brass pocket watch from his black knight's coat pocket and calculated the time.
"Earl? Why are we doing here? Why don't you go find that Marianna quickly and find the goblin before talking about it."
Defney was feeling uneasy now. She didn't know what would happen to Flange Academy after her group found the goblin. Maybe she would kill herself directly to prevent the matter from being exposed.
Defney turned her eyes to the heavy armored guard who had never spoken and followed obediently, and her eyebrows suddenly opened. This big guy made people feel difficult to think of without security.
"No need, before we go back to the airship, someone will come to intercept us. After the third prince learned about the Goblin's information, he will send someone to find Mariana as soon as possible. He is already anxious now and must be using the messaging crystal to communicate with Sennheiser. The meeting I am looking forward to will come soon. They will use this meeting to restrain me and prevent me from finding Mariana. They must successfully recycle the Goblin or kill it in the time to hold me back. Otherwise, they will have to kill us."
Russell wiped the burning cigarette butt on the stone wall without any quality, causing the tobacco scorch to shake off all over the floor.
"Hey! Is it already a critical moment? Why... why don't I know yet?"
Defney was shocked, what should I do? The world was peaceful and peaceful in the last second. After Russell said, it seemed that the final part of this mission had come! It was too sudden, and I was completely unprepared.
Defney sucked in big breaths, trying to relax herself, constantly silently chanting the words "calm".
"It is impossible for things about life and death to have warnings. Give up, give up the idea of calming yourself, calm before the storm, and not many people can bear this kind of depression like death. Not many people can still remain calm in the fuse of the war between the two countries."
But Russell's words seemed to be praising himself. He just lit a cigarette again, because Feng Daxu squinted his eyes and smoked. Even with the protection of the retro bronze-framed glasses, he still took into account the smoke smoky eyes.
"Do you really want to do that? Let Sennheiser take his subordinates to the Principality of Bema to open an academy. Although His Majesty is willing to spend gold coins to build a school for him when the arrival of a legendary magician, why are you so sure? What is a coup that cannot be refused?
Defney asked Russell many times, but Russell did not tell him that this spoiled woman with a nail file would let her moves go.
"Does it make sense? You'll find out soon anyway."
Just as Russell said this, a weird flying creature hovered down from above the clear sky.
It is also because it is close to the sky that it has sunny feathers and fur colors, the strong body and claws of the hero, the head and wings of the falcon, the yellow-brown animal hair of the lion, the forelimbs of the head and the golden eagle feathers on the wings, and the shiny and brilliant color that makes other creatures eclipse.
The third prince's personal guard, the griffin knight.
The griffin slowly landed in front of the two men, and the heavy armored soldier holding a sharp rifle glanced at Russell and said coldly: "Envoyee from the neighboring country, Your Highness the Prince wants to see you."
Dongdong...
Defney's heartbeat instantly accelerated, and she could feel the atmosphere and the solemn feeling that was coming to her face.
And why is Russell here?
"If I die, please keep this note properly. This may save your homeland and protect your homeland."
The world is not like academics, there are always rules to follow.
Sometimes reality is more absurd than film and television writing works, because fiction is carried out under certain logic, while reality is often illogical.
Russell himself knew very clearly that he could judge a person's essence and the direction of things, but he could not...
Judge fate.
Russell will never be arrogant and claim to be a god.
Defney took the beautifully bound leather notebook in a daze, feeling a little confused. Wouldn't it be together to die? Or was Russell going to do something dangerous? Also, is the notebook that can save the world? What exactly is it? Is the Revelation?
Defney didn't know what Russell was crazy about, but she just gave a wink at the heavy armor guard and signaled that he must be smarter. The reason she brought this guy with her was to prevent this situation from happening.
...
...
A mirror appeared out of thin air, with waves floating on the wall panel in the conference hall of the East Part of the Courtyard without any signs.
"St. Sennheiser, you're finally here, hurry up and take your seat."
The third prince looked cold and rarely wore a formal outfit, a silver-blue tuxedo, a wheel-shaped wrinkled collar on his neck, and a meticulously tied gray curly hair. This is no longer as simple as making people shine. It is completely different from the decadent man who sucked Skuma before. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a transformation.
The personal guards were almost halfway there, with fifty people surrounding the entire conference hall, with the windows wide open, and the sunlight was vented. The shiny armor luster, the mirror surface on the sword around the waist, the dazzling and dazzling sun reflection, and the fierce and dizzying death, almost blinding people's eyes. All of them were top experts, and all were sword masters who won every battle in the sword skills duel.
There was a long French table with more than ten people under the seat. The bright red table flags were filled with pure gold candlesticks. The third prince sat in the main seat, and his arms were shaking slightly on the table.
"Yes, Your Highness, is the situation...it is so serious?"
A voice that was old and old came, but was not weak.
The legendary magician, member of the Dharma King Hall, the master of the storm, the master of space arcane, and heresy suppressor.
Sennheiser Armand, the dean of Flange College, walked out of the mirror directly, causing ripples.
Beneath her pale hair, the spotless pure white mage robe and tall skeleton appear quite magnificent. Her happy and unyielding blue eyes with Eva, slightly black and wrinkled skin with old-spots still cannot cover up the three-dimensionality of her facial features. Only such genes can shape offspring like Eva.
As if he was disdainful of using any staff, he came empty-handedly. Perhaps it was an illusion that the elements in the air seemed to start to heat up. When people breathed, the gas became hot, causing the mouth to crack and the tongue to dry.
Sennheiser had never seen such a formal third prince, all the time since he came to Farland two years ago.
"Hey..." The third prince's voice trembled a little, and he said in fear like a person who did the wrong thing: "What impact does kill the diplomatic envoy have?"
Sennheiser sat on a chair next to the third prince, sat very upright, and said softly: "If you choose one from all the excuses for starting a war, the death of the diplomat is not the most convincing excuse, but it is enough. The group of people came here to go through piles of procedures. If it was an accidental death, it would be too underestimated to others."
The third prince swallowed his throat and his heart skipped a beat.
"I messed up...I messed up everything. At that time, I left the island and had no idea what Finger was doing with me on his back. I went to the titan ship in the nearby drifting city. It was a foregone conclusion when I came back. The Goblin had arrived at the academy and had been doing research for a while. I could only shelter her and rejected the people in the palace who came to investigate one by one, making mistakes again and again, and came to this point today. Hey... Could it be...Is it really going to start a war?"
The third prince looked pale and said something as angry as a wanderer.
"I have known the specific situation just now. The order you gave is very correct. It is indeed the best strategy for the current situation. I have won some time. Maybe we only know the information about the goblin. They may not know it yet. They must not kill them unless they have to. The people you sent have already gone to find Mariana. As long as you can find the goblin before tonight, everything will be fine. Their target is Mariana, very close to the goblin. If you can't find it..."
Sennheiser put his finger on his temple, as if he was thinking too.
"His Prince...the envoys from neighboring countries have arrived. Let them come in, or let them stand for a while?"
A knight half-kneeled on the ground and said respectfully. He also noticed the seriousness of the situation. Even the prince who used up hundreds of thousands of gold coins without blinking was so ready. This shows a problem. Perhaps even the current Emperor Nord, Edward VI, may not be able to solve the problem. A storm is coming.
"Have you figured out what to say? Your Highness?"
Sennheiser asked softly, even in this situation, he still had a calm elegance.
"How could I think about it? If I knew, I would call you?"
The third prince was a little angry. Although it was a shameful name for the royal family, he really needed to rely on this. Sennheiser, who was regarded as a thorn in his eyes by his father.
"Then leave everything to me and let them in."
Sennheiser said this.
"This is best..."
When the third prince heard the words, he impatiently supported the knight who reported the news and signaled that the two of them would come in.
Defney's heavy armored guards did not arrive, but stood with other personal guards outside the door. If there was any movement inside, they would enter the field as soon as possible.
Defney was already shocked by this scene. There were two rows of cold top armored knights in the corridor when they entered the door. After entering the door, the dazzling steel reflections were almost suffocating.
Still not wearing any weapons and drinking potions to suppress magic, Russell cannot use any power, or magic now.
"Fortunately, I was too busy at the college celebration and didn't visit you. Please forgive me."
Sennheiser stood up, showed a kind smile, and said neither humble nor arrogantly.
Russell...
But he seems to be...
I ate the explosive barrel...
"In order to kill time, humans are shaking their lips and laughing at things that are not ridiculous or those things that are not cola."
Russell's voice was cold and his indigo-green eyes looked at Sennheiser with contempt.
Defney held her forehead and didn't know what to do. Maybe she shouldn't have followed her, but who said she was a diplomatic envoy?
The entire conference hall was like an ice cave, with needles falling down, and you could vaguely hear the subtle echo of the Royal Guard's arm armor rubbing against his waist and preparing to pull out his sword.
Under the influence of this detail, the reflections in the room were confused.
"How do you say this?"
Sennheiser's face also became cold.
"Because what I'm going to say next is not something to be happy about, maybe it's a tragedy."
"It's ridiculous, isn't it?"
Russell walked slowly, approaching the third prince extremely slowly, putting his five fingers down, slowly sliding across the surface of the table, and said coldly: "Life is like a box of matches. It feels ridiculous to pay special attention to it, and it is dangerous if you don't pay attention to it."
"And your Highness, you seem to be... burning."
"Who would have thought that a kind of weak and powerless monster that even the new adventurer could defeat was at this time the culprit of countless lives bleed and drifted."
"You know my purpose, the camp where you are, and the camp where I am, and the six generations of blood feuds, just because they are separated by a vast abyss and cannot invade each other, so they have to give up."
"But the time is almost ripe, it's time to find a reason."
"Before I find that goblin, give it to me to satisfy the long-cherished wish of the late soldiers of the two countries in Xiling, many years ago."
Russell, with unmatched pressure, not only did not tremble, but his breathing was not even disordered.
The third prince felt that his heart and courage were broken and he was unable to turn the world back. He didn't know where the damn goblin was at this time.
Chapter completed!
