7days ago Fantasy Novels 14
Downsend Street, which borders Queens and the West Side.

Hudilcha stood in a dark and secluded alley, and even without looking up, he could see the ornate palaces and towering Gothic bell towers in the distance.

It was the highest area in the entire Beckland terrain and also the location of the Ruhn royal family.

Its status in the North and South continents, and its entire world is equal or even slightly higher than that of the White Maple Palace in Intis and the Ormere Palace in the Fsac Empire, but its name is neither romantic nor ancient.

It is called Sodrak Palace, and in ancient Foxac, the word means balance.

Xiu took his eyes back from the famous Bell of Order and looked to the other side of the alley.

A figure slowly walked out from the shadow that the gas street lights could not shine.

The figure wore a golden shell mask that exposed the lower half of her face. It was the mysterious person who had sold the Sheriff's recipe to Xiu and entrusted her with some tasks from time to time.

When Hugh and Fors discussed privately, they both suspected that the other party was from MI9.

Have you gained this week?The man wearing a gold mask asked as usual.

Hugh shook his head:

No, no one should have asked about Kaping before the incident.

She paused and asked reluctantly:

Do you still need to investigate this matter?

The masked man said silently:

No need, but if you hear about any related situations later, please contact me immediately.

Today I will give you a new task.

What task?Hugh is fully into the state of bounty hunter, ready to assess the risks of things.

The masked man laughed:

A very simple task, and it is also the task you dream of.

You are looking for the main materials for the ‘sanction officer’ and ‘interrogators’ in all your circles, especially the special materials that can be directly mixed into potions, and if someone responds, we will advance the funds.

Will the purchased materials belong to me?Don't blurt out and ask.

This is her most concerned issue.

No, do you believe that such a simple task can be paid so much?Of course, if you can catch the person we are looking for like fishing, it is not impossible to negotiate that the main material you obtained is the one you get.The masked man said with a low smile.

But I don't know what the main material of the 'Interrogator' potion is... Hugh said hesitantly.

I will tell you later, this is what we paid in advance. Even if you don't find the target, you have the main part of the Sequence 7 Potion formula worth more than £600. I think you have fully realized our generosity.The masked man said in a bewitching tone.

It's indeed generous...who are their targets and why are they willing to spend such a big price to find?

Well, assuming he is from the MI9th Department, taking advantage of this task to recycle the arbitrators circulating on the market with extraordinary materials, it should be one of the purposes, and there is no problem of wasting money... As a barely senior bounty hunter, Xiu instinctively thought of something.

After weighing her a little, she nodded and said:

I accept this commission.

very good.The masked man's tone became relaxed, and he looked around and said, the main material of the 'Interrogator' potion was the horns of the flashing black snake and the dust of the spirit in the lake.

After saying that, he slowly retreated, returned to the shadows, and disappeared at the corner of the alley.

I really told me the main material of the ‘Interrogator’ potion… Hug was still a little stunned for a moment.

It was not until this time that she completely saw the importance that the force represented by the masked man attached to this mission.

I don’t know who the target is, the key point seems to be that special materials can be directly allocated to the ‘Shelf Officer’ and ‘Interrogator’ potions... Thinking of this, Xu suddenly became stunned.

She remembered one thing, that is, when she was promoted to the Sheriff, she used special materials that could be directly mixed into the corresponding potion, and special materials purchased through Fors!

This...is their goal?Hug instinctively decided to conceal this matter and never tell the masked man.

She rubbed her baby-fat cheeks and walked out to the streets, preparing to take a public carriage back to Joewood District.

At this moment, she saw a brown carriage passing by, and her eyes were immediately attracted by the heraldry on it.

The main body of the emblem was a flower and two rings, and there was not too special place, but Xiu looked at it blankly, his eyes as if solidified.

She waited until the carriage was away and her mood suddenly became extremely depressed. Even though she had returned to the house she rented together, it did not improve completely.

When he found that his friend was in a wrong state, Fors poured two glasses of red wine and brought it over.

What happened?She sat opposite and pushed one of the glasses of wine to Hug.

Xiu looked down at the red wine and was silent for two minutes before he said in a slightly hoarse voice:

On the way back, I met someone I knew before.

who?Fors asked very cooperatively.

Viscount Steford.Don't ask questions and answer questions.

Fors recalled carefully:

This viscount seems to be the chief guard of the palace?

As a best-selling novelist, she can get invitations from time to time from time to time for aristocrats who like literature and participate in afternoon tea and banquets. Based on the writer's professional habit of collecting materials, she will definitely take the initiative to understand more well-known aristocrats.

It was at such a party that she met Viscount Glylint.

Yes, he used to be my father's deputy.Hug said with a little difficulty.

Your father?Fors knew that Hug came from a ruined aristocratic family and had some secrets, but he was not sure about the specific situation.

Hug picked up the red wine, took a sip, and coughed several times.

She slowed down for a while and said:

My family belonged to the palace nobles, and when they were most prominent, they even served as the Earl of the Palace.

Earl of the Palace?What position is this?Fors asked half curious and half curious to help his friends calm down.

This is equivalent to the royal spokesperson and the nobleman closest to the throne.Xiu looked gloriously and recalled that since then, our family had the fiefdom that the real earl should have. When my father was no longer so prominent, he was still trusted by his former king, the "strongest" William VI. He was the commander of the royal guard and the chief of the palace guard.

Her tone gradually faded, with unconcealed pain:

But seven years ago, he was charged with participating in a rebellion and was eventually sentenced to hang and deprived of his title and fief.

My family was ruined, and many members died for no reason. In order to live, we changed our last name and left East Tucker County…

I don't believe that my father would rebel. He was so loyal to the royal family, even surpassing his belief in the goddess!In order to... in short, I left my mother and younger brother and came to Beckland to find opportunities to improve myself, hoping to restore the glory of the family and the reputation of my father.

Hugh was vague about some of the things in the middle, but Fors didn't care and sighed:

This will be very, very difficult.

She immediately smiled:

But I will support you!

And there is a mysterious Tarot Club behind me!She added in her heart.

No. 2 Daffodil Street, Tingen City.

Melissa, who was calculating math problems, turned her head and looked at the door, looking at Benson, who had just taken off her top hat and said:

Where have you gone?Isn’t the results announced tomorrow?

I can find out tonight, and I happen to know two municipal government employees who are in charge of the unified examination.Benson said with a cursing corner of his mouth.

In early December, he signed up for the unified government employees exam and selected a position with relatively little competition. In this process, he relied on eloquence and communication skills to establish friendship with several government employees and many candidates.

What's the result?Melissa unconsciously put down the round belly pen in her hand.

Benson's expression suddenly sank, but just before Melissa spoke, he showed a bright smile:

pass!

And it's a front position!

This is so good... Melissa stood up and walked for two steps. You have to start preparing for the second round of exams at the end of January. This is in Beckland. You have to pack your luggage in advance... When are you planning to set off?

Seeing her sister worry about this and that, Benson walked into the living room and said with a smile:

My plan is that after the New Year, we go to Beckland together and rent a house there.

Whether the exam is successful or not, I am ready to stay in Beckland and try to make a try, and you can take advantage of the New Year holiday to transfer to Beckland's Technical School to prepare for the Beckland University of Technology in June.

Just one month ago, the reorganization of the Beckland Technical College was completed and officially upgraded to the University of Technology and Technology.

Melissa listened quietly, pursing her lips unknowingly.

She looked around nostalgically and replied softly:

good.

Friday afternoon, Kragg Club.

Crane walked out and hired a carriage to Prince Edsack's Red Rose Manor.

It was a place that Talim often went to a few days before his death. As a qualified detective, I was completely sorry for the 100 pounds he received if I didn't go to investigate.

No matter how passive and lazy you work, you still have to do your best... Klein sat in the carriage, enjoying the scenery outside the window with less pollution, while muttering.

After morning practice, he roughly grasped the extent of improvement in all aspects of the level: his extraordinary ability to manipulate flames, fire jumps, etc. became about 30%, the power of the air bomb and the length of the pipes for false breathing underwater were even doubled, and divination and fighting were also significantly enhanced.

Paper man stand-in and harm transfer have not changed much, but because of the increase in spirituality, the number of times it can be used has increased relatively.

While shaking, Klein finally arrived at the Red Rose Manor and explained his purpose to the two soldiers guarding the entrance.

After the news, he met the old housekeeper before.

You can ask everyone here.The meticulous old housekeeper paused and added, except for the lady.

This is also my wish, I don't want to get involved in trouble... Klein smiled relaxedly:

good!
