Path of The Dragonborn - Vol 2 Chapter 1290
“…”
“What’s wrong? I’ve been in a daze.” Fei shook her hand in front of Heilijia’s eyes, “Since I came back just now…”
“It’s nothing…just thinking about something,” Heliga said—playing with the peculiar obsidian he brought back from the cave in the Groni Mountains, “for example, what can this thing bring What good luck.”
“Even if there is, can it really work for you?” Fei wondered, “Didn’t you say that many things in this world…”
“This doesn’t seem to be necessarily. Because it doesn’t seem to be some kind of mechanism related to the goddess…” Heliga shook his head, and at this time Ling also pushed open the bathroom door. Another towel was twisting **** top of his head, “It should be related to the so-called ‘elf belief’. ”
“Isn’t that the legend of the Empire?” Fei recalled, “Laura and your hometown?”
“Ara… It seems that in the Middle Ages, there was once Liber’s territory.” Ling replied casually, “In the earliest times, the sphere of influence of several treasured relatives should be about the same size, including Liberty. Now, there are many territories in the southeast of the empire that are actually considered to be Liber’s homeland.”
“But because of the “Battle of the Lions” and Liberal’s long-lasting civil war, the relevant historical documents have long been lost, and even the church has no record of it. Heliga said, “So in modern times, no one used this kind of thing equivalent to legendary unofficial history to provoke territorial disputes between the two countries… But well, based on my understanding of the treasure, this is probably true. ”
“Well… that means, in fact, Libel may have the same tradition of elven belief as the southern part of the empire?” Fei thought about it carefully, she seemed to know the source of the problem, “I remember… about the “Seven Treasures” “The legend seems to have said that the treasure and its relatives “fall from the sky”? ”
“Yeah… So there has always been a kind of non-civilization in the theory related to mysticism, that is, the descendants of today’s treasured relatives are colonizers, and those who believe in elf beliefs are the aborigines of this continent.” Haley added. Nodding, “I haven’t checked it carefully, but it doesn’t seem impossible. Isn’t there a typical outsider living in my body?”
“It seems to be…” Fei nodded, “That is to say, the folklore of the “Stone of Happiness” is related to the elf belief, and if there is still such a thing today, it means that the elf belief itself has not completely disappeared, right? Bar? ”
“Yeah… However, I coerced and lured that little dragon to give this thing to me. I don’t know whether it can become a “Happiness Stone” as he said, so it’s better to do an experiment. Heriga laughed. “If it’s true, I’ll cut it into thirds and give it to all three of you.” ”
“Hmph… I don’t want it.” Ling sniffed in disgust, “Ling only wants to be happy in full. Sister Fei, do you think so too?”
“I actually wanted to say that one-third is enough…” Fei said half-jokingly, “But since Ling said that, she always feels that she can’t just admit defeat.”
“Here again, can you please stop imitating the plot in Gongdou’s novel.” Heliga began to have a headache-since Fei had seen something like this somewhere-probably asked Emma for it-he began to deliberately Make fun of yourself by imitating the plot inside. What a smart child Ling is, she naturally saw the clue and was happy to cooperate. Heliga could not laugh or cry, so he had to accompany them to make trouble.
Anyway… I don’t know anyone who can provide experience for this kind of thing. There are some dedicated people around me, and those I know of similar situations are mostly traditional die-hard aristocrats who use women as tools to please and mate, and I have no intention of imitating them.
While chatting and laughing, Ling had already changed her clothes, and the three of them left the hotel and headed to the Royal City of Gransel—today was the last day before the embassy left, and the royal city provided a sumptuous dinner to the members of the embassy as usual. Before that, Heilijia bought several newspapers to check, and with Ling’s help, also checked some new guiding network media in recent years. In general, this operation was a great success – the main reason is that when When many journalists learned of the complex composition of the embassy, they arbitrarily believed that some people would inevitably make trouble out of it, as a manifestation of the political struggle within the empire. However, it turns out that Regniz and Irina’s ability to see people is quite accurate. It seems that further cooperation with them should also be expected.
“With this money, there is no need to worry about the “Black Moon” side for the time being, the flow of funds in the province and the Republic is causing trouble. “Heliga figured out what he could get from it – sometimes political bribery is inevitable, and he rejected a lot of exaggerated flattery at Olibart’s advice, but he still accepted some symbolically out of courtesy. And the gift for the purpose of making friends, so as not to make people think that he is downright thorny. This also made Heliga sigh once again how much oil and water are implied in the business of the imperial dignitaries-the result of the accounting office statistics, this time The valuation of the various contracts of the company can reach 700 billion Mila (of course, the contract about the new spaceship is a secret and has been hidden), and if it is a little ugly to eat by yourself, there is no problem in making a tens of digits from it.
What’s more, according to the accountant who is close to Olibart over there, in fact, the most valuable and most corrupt potential is the arms trade – those people or forces on the mainland who want to obtain “RF” weapons or production licenses. There are as many as cow hair, and the oil and water among them are the most. Those autonomous prefectures that surrendered to the empire sometimes used tens of billions of mira in rebates to tempt the directors of “RF” in related transactions. The amount of rebates alone is enough to buy half an armored division at market price. equipment.
While chatting about these things, I drove to Heliga in the royal city. Seeing that there was still some time left, I planned to take this opportunity to visit Queen Liberty first. However, on the way to the hall where the queen is, Heliga is surprised to find that he has been blocked. The two men, one man and one woman, apparently had a fight just now. At this time, both of them were cloudy. The man Heiliga knew, it was Davier, the ambassador of the Empire to Liberty, and the woman, Heiliga, saw the clover national emblem on her uniform, and knew it.
“Are you Count Heliga Kerholzwell? I’m Elsa Kirkulan, the ambassador of the Republic of Calvard to Liber, and I have something important to discuss with you. Can I stay before the dinner party begins? Give us some time?”
