After the meeting, the meeting recorder kept Scar and asked him to wait in a reception room. Scar thought that officials from Ten Star City were looking for him to learn more about what he saw when he contacted Quetzalcoatl, but he didn't expect it.
Waiting for a while was an attendant of the sage from the Holy Garden.
The attendant was a very young girl, probably in her early 20s. She looked a bit thin, with braids on both sides. A thick and heavy book was tied to a silver chain on her slender waist that could be easily grasped.
She also carried a delicate and simple magic book with a wide waist. When she saw Scar, she bowed with great respect and bowed, and then said in a sweet voice: "Dear Mr. Deputy Commander of the Bloody Mercenary Group, I am Ao
Vayne, the secretary of the Ladder Sage, first of all, I would like to thank you and your team for your contribution to saving the world from disaster. The Ladder Sage asked me to tell you that for your help, the Holy Garden is now officially open to you and yours.
The team extends an invitation to visit the Holy Garden."
"Ah, now?" Scar was stunned for a moment. He got such a hint when he met with the officials of Ten Star City before. Although he had certain expectations, he still thought it was a joke in his heart. He didn't expect it to come true.
.
Vayne waved her hand slightly: "It doesn't have to be now. I'll send you an invitation first. You can go at any time when you're ready. But don't have too many people. It's best to have about ten to fifteen people. In addition, the Holy Garden also invites some of you.
Outstanding members will undergo exchange studies in the Holy Garden for a period of one to three years. There are a total of five places. As for who will study, it is up to you."
"This... is really unbelievable." Facing such a kind little girl, Scar was a little nervous and excited. Maybe the news came too suddenly and too real, and he was at a loss. He scratched his head and said with a smile:
"The Holy Garden is such a sacred place. I never dreamed of going there. Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity suddenly comes. I really... really don't know what to say."
Vayne smiled sweetly and said, "You just need to agree and tell me an exact time. The Holy Garden will arrange everything for you."
"Oh, my God, I have to discuss this with my guys. This matter is too important." Scar paced eagerly: "I thought... I thought this wouldn't happen like this.
Soon. After all, it’s not certain whether that ‘Sun God’ can save the world. I think we have to wait until then at least... Hey, our Bloody Mercenary Group is not the only one participating in this operation. Have you also invited others?
?”
Vayne nodded: "After this, we will send invitations to the appropriate people. As for the situation of Lord Xi's two daughters, I don't know. There should be other arrangements."
Scar was too lazy to care about other people's affairs. He checked the number of people again and was already thinking about who would go. There were ten to fifteen short-term visitors and five long-term study places. There were so many participants this time.
He has to make arrangements.
Seeing that he was in a daze, Vayne tried to call him twice and said: "Tonight there will be a dinner arranged by the Grand Consul to entertain all the participants of the event. Shengyuan and Ten Star City jointly produced 25 coins.
Magic Medal, to reward you for everything you have done, and to remember your fallen comrades." She lowered her voice and said, "Let me tell you quietly, these twenty-five medals are not simple, wearing them is of great benefit."
When he came out of the parliament hall and walked down the steps, Scar looked at the sunshine in the sky. His body and mind felt refreshed. He whistled proudly, but unexpectedly, he heard a voice from behind the bronze statue at the bottom of the steps.
A familiar voice: "Seeing as you are in such a good mood, something good must have happened if you were left here."
Scar's eyes lit up and he walked quickly: "My Lord Mayor Sally, you are so smart." He told the story again.
Sally smiled slightly and said: "I really want to congratulate you. For ordinary people, the Holy Garden is a place that is really difficult and impossible to go to. If you can learn from there, even if you are invited back as a guest, you will be able to do it no matter where you go.
Respected."
Scar nodded happily, and suddenly asked unexpectedly: "Are you waiting for me here specially?"
"Well...you guess."
Scar touched the beard and thought for a while, then said: "I hope so."
The two strolled away from the Parliament Circle and then came to the street. Sally did not get into her carriage, but continued walking under the shade of the trees. At the same time, she said to Scar: "You told me before when you returned to Sussex County
What happened at the Temple of the Sun must have caused a lot of casualties in your team."
"Yes, because it was a completely unplanned action. But there is nothing we can do about it. The mercenary industry is like this, especially if a team like ours accepts external orders, there will always be unplanned changes.
Under normal circumstances, we will work hard to make more plans to control risks to a minimum."
Sally smoothed her hair and said, "When you are a mercenary, there are some who only run between cities and don't go to dangerous places."
Scar said disdainfully: "Those are all odd jobs, repairing things, catching nearby prey, or short-distance escort missions, with personnel escorts and cargo escorts, but in the end they are all those who make odd money, that is, those who are not willing to
It’s a job for people who don’t dare to take risks when traveling far away.”
"But it's safer, isn't it?" Sally said: "If you get married and have a family, your wife and children also hope to have a more stable life."
Scar was silent for a while, looking at the moving branches and light and shadow above his head: "I have also thought about this problem, but I didn't dare to think about it deeply. I used to think that these were still too far away for me, but now...
"
Sally said as she walked: "If I get married, I don't want to be worried every day."
Scar looked at her unexpectedly and looked at her direct gaze.
Sally suddenly smiled lightly and said, "Did I say too many rude things? It's obvious that you and I have only known each other briefly."
"Uh, no...I didn't expect you to say that."
"Just think of it as a heart-to-heart talk between friends."
…
On the other side, city scavengers living at the bottom of the street are collecting the feces from the animals on the road. They use special tools to collect various types of feces into sacks and then put them in large wooden barrels on two-wheelers.
In the morning, they were all transported to the outside of the city for processing. Bimoye was riding a rented horse back to his villa when a fast carriage caught up with him, and a boy-like face appeared in the window.
Asheena.
"Hey, are you my sister's future husband?"
Bimoye just glanced at it and ignored it, thinking that this was Afro's sister that Luo said.
Asheina looked unhappy and said: "What are you capable of doing to be my sister's husband? You look younger than my sister and not good-looking, huh~! Hey, talk!"
Bimoye glanced sideways again, flicked the reins and moved forward faster.
Asuna got angry and asked the coachman to catch up quickly, shouting: "You'd better not want to marry my sister, even if you are the son of some ambassador, don't even think about it. Huh, the ambassador is nothing, not even the foreign prince.
We don’t want incompetent people in our family!”
Bimoye looked at her with cold eyes. He didn't want to meet such a little girl, but when he said this, he was not polite: "Do you think that any kind of person can enter the door of Christine's house? In the devil's house,
In the Moon Empire, the Kristin family has been as prominent as the empire for as long as it has existed. Your father is also the ruler of the West, with less power than the prime minister, and has only been prosperous for more than 20 years. How can he compare with my family?" He felt a little confused as soon as he said these words.
She regretted it, not to mention that her sister Avro had helped Scar and the others before, but given the situation he was in now and his father's status as a diplomatic envoy, he shouldn't have said such harsh words.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Asuna's eyes were as wide as copper bells, and her cheeks were red with anger. Even the driver who was driving the cart turned around and glared at him angrily. Asuna gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, okay, it's you who said this."
Yes, I will definitely tell my sister and my father exactly as they are! Driver, let’s go back!”
Bimoye frowned, sighing inwardly that he couldn't control his emotions. In the final analysis, it was because of the sudden engagement that made him feel rebellious.
