Chapter 249: Islandz
"Walking alone for thousands of miles? The tone is very big, but I don't know how good I am." In the audience hall on the top floor of a blue-gray castle, a woman looked at the report in her hand, smiled and said.
The appearance of this woman is a bit strange. She is not tall and has a young face like a young girl. If you only look at her height and face, she is clearly a little girl who is no more than twelve or thirteen years old and has not yet grown up; But if you look at her body lines, it is clear that she is a mature woman, and she is also a woman among the women, and can be called a "stunner" type.
Her voice was full of energy, and when she heard it, she knew that she was a martial arts practitioner, and she just spoke casually, but her voice was agitated in the audience hall.
Hearing her words, an old man sitting on the left side of the lower head smiled and said: "The world is big, strange people are emerging in endlessly, and it is not surprising that any one emerges. A few days ago, our Majesty was almost assassinated. ."
"That's because he did things too much and didn't allow people to survive, so it's no wonder that others have to give everything to fight with him." The woman said lightly, and there was no respect for His Majesty the Thracian King in her tone.
"Speaking of this, it's a bit strange," said a knight on the right. "According to the people present, the two people who came to assassinate were bear men. Among the masters recruited by the Edward family, there was also a bear man... …”
"James Edward has lived on the grasslands for a few years, and it's not surprising that he knows some strong orcs." The woman shook her head, "Don't think in the direction of the bears, the strong do things for a reason, the chaos in the royal city. Either way, it’s not about assassinating halfway, it’s not that people are tired of living and want to make trouble, it’s that our Majesty has pushed others to that step.”
The old man sighed and said, "Your Majesty also has his own difficulties. The next few decades are destined to undergo great changes in the world. Only by seizing the last stable period before the great change occurs, strengthening the strength of Thrace, and facing possible dangers and dangers in the future. Only in disasters can you be more confident.”
"Humph!" The woman snorted coldly, "This is only one reason. The key to the problem is his ambition. The possible dangers and disasters in the future are just an excuse for him to launch his ambitions."
As she said that, she laughed again: "But when it comes to ambition, in fact, I have no position to criticize him. He wants the world to be king, and I also want to learn heroes from all walks of life, he has his ambitions. , I also have my ambitions. Thinking about it carefully, I'm afraid his ambitions are more reasonable than mine..."
The knight also smiled: "We have been practicing hard for a lifetime, and what we pursue is not to fight against the strong, and to have a happy life and death! If you want me to say, how the world is and how the future will be, it's none of my business! As long as I can find a powerful opponent, An opponent who can make me dangerous and happy, and feel that I am truly alive between life and death is enough!"
The old man sighed and shook his head: "You...what do you think of war..."
"A most gorgeous game." The woman replied.
"A rare game that's better than playing with a woman," the knight replied.
The old man shook his head again and again and muttered in a low voice: "How come I didn't see it back then, both of you are not very normal..."
"What would happen if you wanted to find out?" the woman asked.
The old man thought for a while, then sighed deeply: "It's not very good, I can't see it."
The woman and the knight looked at each other and laughed.
Laughter stirred in the audience hall, and the walls trembled, and the decorative weapons and armors in the audience hall were all buzzing, as if to echo with cheers.
Outside the castle, several knights passing by vaguely heard the sound and looked up at the top of the castle.
"The duke is going crazy again." An older knight said helplessly. "Since she took the throne, she has been laughing like this every once in a while. What's so funny about it?"
"As long as she's happy," said the younger knight next to her, "she's happy, and it's good for all of us. Maybe you can take a vacation tomorrow or something."
"Stop daydreaming!" the older knight said sternly, "The thief 'Walking Alone' only committed a crime in our nearby territory a few days ago. Not only can we not rest these days, but we have to work in two and three shifts. , to ensure that at least twice as many people are watching at each post at all times!"
He looked at the disapproval expressions of his colleagues, and said earnestly: "I know, you think that there are Sage Lopez, General Spinola, and His Majesty the Duke himself in the castle, so you don't think anyone dares to make trouble— —This is paralyzed! That 'Walking Alone' is not the type of murder and arson. No matter how many adults can fight, as long as they don't meet him, it is meaningless. Take a step back, even if he is encountered by adults, Killed, that is our dereliction of duty!"
He sighed and said, "Just think about how embarrassing it would be if he stole things from our Ellands Castle as well!"
The knights looked at each other, and their faces gradually became solemn.
"...You're right! We were negligent!"
"Let's go patrol!"
"I'll send more staff!"
After a busy time, the knights left, and the eldest knight also smiled and turned away.
But he didn't know that after he left, a gray ball-like thing climbed along the wall and quickly climbed into the audience hall on the top floor, and murmured a few times at the three people in the room.
The voice was inexplicable, but the three of them could understand it. The old man smiled and said with satisfaction: "After so many years, Kandi's work is still so reliable! With him around, the Ellants family will be stable."
"Unfortunately, Uncle Kandi's strength is still not good. He spends all his energy on official business." The knight said regretfully, "With his talent, if he concentrated on martial arts, he might have already become a top powerhouse, or even a legendary realm. Not without hope..."
"He can't concentrate on martial arts, who did it?" The old man squinted his eyes, but saw that the chief knight of the Elanz family was sitting in a dangerous position, posing as a good baby, while the duchess looked around, as if inside the house Anything fun.
He talked and said: "Katrina, you are already a duke, be more prudent, be more attentive to government affairs, and don't imitate your father - when you were young, he and Candy were equally famous as geniuses, and the result was because He keeps making troubles, and Kandi has been busy filling the loopholes for him. After decades, his strength has hardly improved... Now Kandi is old, and he has no energy to help you fill the loopholes for decades. "
The Duchess bowed her head with a rare expression of honest shame.
"As for that 'Walking alone for thousands of miles'..." The old man smiled slightly, with complex and strange runes flashing in his eyes, "If he doesn't come, I'd like to see if he runs fast, or if he comes. The magic barrier that I set up in the Castle of Elanz is activated quickly!"
