Chapter 49 Involved in the whirlpool(1/2)
What is the name engraved on the sword...
The immortal flame of the phoenix, the blood of mortal heroes.
What is the name of the knight?
"Justice and mercy, bravery and loyalty——"
Enan Mordekaiser stood by the stairs of the hall for a long time, looking up at the painting at the top. The man in the painting was wearing armor, holding a long sword, and had a slightly curled mustache on his lips.
serious.
The sword in the hand of the man in the painting has a slender and delicate blade and is deftly decorated. It is different from the ordinary swords of mortals. It is not as thick and sharp as the sword of the dwarves, nor does it have the soul and spirituality of the sword of the goblin. It is said that the sword was born in
In the sea of fire is one of the holy swords of the Numerin elves.
The name of the sword is Blood of the Phoenix. The man holding the sword is the first generation head of the Mordekaiser family and the founder of Duron. The world no longer remembers his name and only calls him Duke Phoenix.
Enan heard a creaking sound behind him, and the door leading to the study on one side was pushed open. He turned around and looked at the tall knight walking out of the door. The knight closed the door, turned around, and his right hand was missing.
He took out a ring finger, leaving only four fingers. He put down his hand and said:
"My Lord Earl does not want to see you."
Enan was silent for a moment and just nodded. "Then say hello to my father for me."
After saying that, he turned around and walked forward with shallow and then deep steps, but the knight stopped him from behind: "Wait a minute, Enan."
He turned around. "What's the matter, Mr. Ferrier?"
The knight shook his head in silence, looked at this disgusting young man, and said in a deep voice: "Your brother is just missing, Enan, he is not dead yet, we all know this."
"I know."
"As long as Lord Earl and I are still alive, it is impossible to hand over the Holy Phoenix Sword to you."
"You know that I am a poor swordsman, Mr. Ferrier," replied Aynan, "so even if you gave it to me, I would have no use for it."
The tall knight narrowed his eyes, took a breath and said, "You'd better not say these things in front of the earl."
Enan nodded.
That was his father. No matter how bad the relationship between the two was, he would not deliberately anger the other person - although he felt that he was just telling the truth. A sword, no matter how magical it is, cannot change the current situation.
He pushed open the door to the corridor, and the little maid was looking at him with a worried expression, frowning and saying: "You talked back to Mr. Ferrier again? Enan, although Mr. Ferrier is your father's retainer, he
His position in the family is very important, and if you always make him unhappy, it will be very disadvantageous for you..."
Enan only smiled when he heard this.
The little maid stared at him: "And there will always be some rumors that reach the earl."
"Mr. Ferrier is an upright knight."
"But others are not." She sighed and said while putting a piece of paper into her master's hand.
Enan took the note, unfolded it, took a look at it, and then asked: "Did they escape...?"
The little maid nodded, her brows furrowed: "But Ms. Miranda..."
Enan put the note away and remained silent without speaking.
…
Sophie looked back at the smaller and smaller Turtle Castle, which soon turned into a black dot among the white mountains. She took off her hood, shook the snowflakes on it, and then turned back and asked:
"Can you tell us now?"
Her words attracted the attention of others, who also looked towards Fang Plover. Below them, Mr. Huiyan walked slowly, and the deck swayed slightly in the wind.
Fang Yu raised his hand and withdrew the last clockwork goblin with a 'click', then opened his goggles and asked: "Do you still remember the message I sent you before, Sophie? I said that after you arrive, there is one thing I need to do
Help me."
Sophie nodded. It was only a week ago, and she naturally remembered it. "I have been wanting to ask before, what exactly was it?" She then asked.
"It has something to do with the people from the Dragon Fire Guild," Fang Plover replied: "We met those people at the Masonk Creek Station..."
"Dragon Fire Guild?" Sophie raised her eyebrows slightly.
Since the Dolifen incident, the Dragon Fire Guild has become a rat on the street, with everyone calling for beatings. It has also been put on the military's wanted list, and this incident has caused quite a stir. Of course she knows the causes and consequences.
She suddenly reacted: "Have you seen people from the Dragon Fire Guild in Yujin Castle before?"
Fang Yu shook his head: "No, it's someone else."
"Wait, there are other people?" Tian Lan opened her mouth cutely when she heard this: "Brother Ed, you didn't see those guys, did you?"
Fang Yu nodded.
Sophie watched the two people playing riddles here and couldn't help but feel a little confused. She interrupted them and said, "Wait, if they are not from the Dragon Fire Guild, then who are you talking about?"
Fang Yu knew that she didn't understand the whole story at that time, so he told the Princess of Silver Vislan what happened at the Maxson Creek Station - of course, omitting the part about Elmau Castle.
When Sophie heard in this 'story' that the alchemist on the other side actually had unreasonable thoughts about Miss Ship Officer, she couldn't help but glance at Fang Plover and couldn't help but feel funny.
Of course Fang Yu knew what she was thinking, but he just pretended that he didn't see it and dealt with it.
After listening to this, Sophie finally understood what happened at that time, and suddenly said: "So it was the alchemist you saw before, and they had contact with the people of the Dragon Fire Guild at the Masonk Creek station?"
"If that 'eldest sister' is still a member of the Dragon Fire Guild——"
"This has nothing to do with her current status," Sophie shook her head: "At least she once was, and that's enough."
She then looked at Fang Pulun and asked: "So this is the important thing you wanted to tell me before. You are worried that your identity will be exposed, so you want me to do it for you?"
Fang Yu nodded. The candidate he had in mind at that time was none other than the Princess of Silver Vislan. She is one of the future cores of Silver Vislan and is more reliable in the eyes of others; and Fenris
When the island incident occurred, she was also at the scene and had cooperated with the military once, so it was easier to gain the other party's trust.
Sophie looked at him: "Ed, actually even if your identity is exposed, nothing will happen."
"What I'm worried about is Toragotos," Fang Plover replied: "It's still missing, isn't it?"
But he actually didn't tell the truth completely. What he was really worried about was whether his other identity would be caught by the descendants of Flor. Moreover, there was still a lot of trouble on Nicol Bolas' side.
Before the strength is insufficient, the best choice is naturally to be in the dark with the enemy - even if this is not possible, at least you must find a way to lurk in the dark with the enemy.
"Okay," Sophie sighed after hearing this: "Your worries are not unreasonable. I will help you keep the secret."
"Thank you, Sophie." Fang Plover thanked him sincerely. Counting the time on Fenris Island, this was only the second time the two met, and he even accidentally killed the other person once.
But the Princess of Silver Vislan not only had no intention of blaming him, but also helped him keep the secret at her own risk, even though there was no reason for her to do so.
Sophie shook her head, but she didn't really care about this matter.
She only frowned. It was indeed not a trivial matter for the Dragon Fire Guild. She also felt the seriousness of the problem, and then asked: "Do you need me to contact the Stargate Port immediately?"
Fang Yu asked back: "Is there a military base near here?"
Sophie shook her head. To the south of Crosswind Port and deep inland were the spheres of influence of Kaulin-Ithulian, and the nearest military base was hundreds of miles away. Fang Plover understood what the answer was when he saw this.
, he also shook his head and said: "Let's talk about it later. Water from afar can't quench the thirst of the near. It's better to be prepared to deal with the immediate things now."
"Coping with the current situation?" Sophie was a little surprised and couldn't help but look behind her: "Those people discovered us? Did you see anything through your clockwork goblin?"
Fang Yu shook his head. "No, but it was inevitable that they would find us. I had let the clockwork fairy and the secretary be together before I saw those people. Judging from the relationship between the two parties, it should not be the first time they have come into contact.
."
"You mean they are a group?"
"It's very possible."
"...Then I'm afraid this mission is not that simple." Attila frowned and said.
Fang Plover nodded in agreement. They had an old quarrel with each other when they were stationed at Masonk Creek. Even if the other party did not retaliate, would they be so kind and arrange a task for them to pass?
Not being a stumbling block behind his back meant he was broad-minded, but he didn't think that young man had such a broad-mindedness to repay evil with kindness.
Sophie seemed to recall the previous situation at this time and asked: "...Is this why you changed your story at that time?"
Fang Plover nodded.
Tian Lan also reacted: "Wait a minute, but since those guys have bad intentions, why doesn't Brother Ed just refuse them?"
"How can we get through this place if we reject them?" Sophie raised her knuckles and knocked on her forehead: "You little fool, if you reject them in that place, do you think you can leave safely?"
Tianlan said 'ouch', held her head and said aggrievedly: "Be gentle, sister Sophie, you have become stupid!" But she kept talking without any sign of becoming stupid: "That's right... but they are so kind?
This is definitely a trap!"
Sophie also turned around and asked: "So is the remote contract useful?"
"It's hard to say," Fang Yu replied: "But it is the goddess's contract after all. I guess they don't dare to play any tricks under Ms. Roman's nose. The mission itself may be true, but we have to be more careful."
Sophie and Attila thought for a while and both felt that this was the best way to deal with it at the time. At least there was no conflict on the other side's territory and they successfully passed the level. Even if the other side was unkind later, they could at least deal with it one by one.
Chance.
"Then I'll tell Ms. Kusu to be more vigilant, Captain." Only then did Sylvide whisper to him from the side.
"Then be careful."
The latter just smiled slightly, nodded slightly to him, turned and left.
