Alien Knights

Chapter 45 Traveling

In the end, all the glass products were sent to Silver Ring City. Although Todd repeatedly "argued with reason" to Father Paul before that, the other party finally took out the bishop's authorization, and no one could refute it.

Although Todd failed to leave treasures for priests, knights, and war dead, the people of the church accepted this kindness and recorded this benevolence and righteousness.

On the other hand, as the head of the visiting group——Paul, after donating treasures to the church, just when most people believed that he would soon make a fortune.

A letter of appointment and dismissal ten days later made everyone's glasses shattered.

Bishop Fabian, who was very rare, used extremely severe and even harsh words to remove Paul from his position as head of the delegation, and ordered him to return to the cathedral immediately, and instead appointed a highly respected old priest in the visiting delegation to replace him.

As the saying in the previous life said.

"He quietly left, just as he came quietly; with a flick of his sleeve, he will not take a single cloud."

Everything gradually returned to calm.

The annexation of the Abbey of San Sidro by the Church has come to an end.

Todd's life has also returned to the past.

Library, laboratory, dormitory, three points and one line.

In the eyes of others, he stayed away from the world, chose the life of a monastery, and became a monk again. But only he knew in his heart that a seed was sprouting and a barrel of fine wine was fermenting. In the not-too-distant future, a real opportunity would come to him sooner or later.

On a warm winter morning, Todd was busy in the laboratory, and Huggins knocked on the door.

The man still wears the old outfit, and the monks are not surprised now, so they don't bother to talk about him anymore.

Huggins patted the dust on his body, looked at the intricate instruments on the table, and the colorful liquids in the bottles, and said slowly: "The glass workshop has been processed. The furnace, utensils, samples, and molds are all hidden in a safe place."

Todd nodded, indicating that he understood.

Huggins found a stool and sat down, moving his arms: "The pirate's warship is a problem, maybe we can build a small dock on the West Coast?"

Todd put down the gas cylinder in his hand, signaled Karin across the table to turn off the fire, thought for a moment, and said, "No, let the harbor keep its original appearance, and the boat can be stored in a nearby village."

After a pause, he turned his face to Huggins, and said, "I know that the decision to close the glass workshop and not develop the harbor for the time being may be somewhat incomprehensible. After all, I once promised you that I will turn Muxi Harbor into a base for alien species..."

The man shook his head, and what he said surprised Todd: "No, I understand, now is not the time to do this."

The latter said: "That's right, whether it's producing glass or developing a seaport, others will doubt the real purpose of what we did before."

Huggins nodded in agreement with him, stood up and turned to leave.

"Oh, by the way, Brother Huggins, wait a minute." Todd took out a small wooden box from under the table and handed it to the other party.

With doubts, the man opened the wooden box, and the things inside made him freeze in place.

A string of small wind chimes made of glass and silver.

"I specially left this for your daughter." Todd shrugged, suddenly remembered something, and added: "Remember not to tell Edgar."

The man nodded slightly to the monk, did not say anything, put the wooden box in his arms, and left the room, expressionless from beginning to end, but his body trembled slightly.

"What about mine?"

Hearing this voice, Todd frowned and turned his face away.

His beautiful female assistant, Karin Foreman blinked and looked at him with anticipation.

Since the few days spent together on the island, Karin's attitude towards herself has changed slightly.

In the past, she surrounded him more because of curiosity; but now, there are more things in the other party's eyes that he can't understand and can't figure out.

For this unknown thing, he is not sure and does not dare to be sure.

"Karin, if I say I want to give you glass, you won't be happy. After all, you can make it yourself. Well, tell me what you want, as long as I can do it." Todd, who gave up resistance, raised his arms high, showing the appearance of surrender.

Karin, who rested her chin on both hands, lay on the table, looked at the roof, and began to think seriously.

The girl's eyes lit up, and Todd was a little surprised by the proposal later: "Let's go out and play!"

Twenty minutes later, around eight o'clock in the morning.

Todd, who had changed into casual clothes, saw Karin in the first official meeting at the gate of the monastery.

A light white round cake-style headdress, a loose top with an open front, long black hair combed into twists and hanging down the back of the head, and a small face that is lightly applied with makeup is full of embarrassment.

Todd sighed a little, with such a poor background, if he was a few years older and put in his own university in his previous life, he would definitely be selected as the school belle by those good boys.

"Where are we going next?" It was funny to say, he traveled to a different world, except for the downtown circus, this was the first time he really went out to play.

The girl patted her chest, with a face full of familiarity: "Just follow me!"

Walking down the hillside and heading east, the two of them arrived at a small post station called "White Horse" after about fifteen minutes' walk.

Among the three or five carriages that were close together, Karin chose a post that was fairly well-decorated and clean, grabbed the back panel of the carriage with both hands, and wanted to flip it up with both hands.

Todd came to her side, took her arms with both hands, lifted her up, and sent her into the car. After he turned over and entered, he found that the girl's face was a little red, but he didn't think much about it. He found that the driver was still resting with his eyes closed, and asked a question: "Is this car not leaving now?"

Karin gave him a strange look, and replied, "The carriage will not start until the guests are full."

After making a fuss for a long time, I dare to say that this is not considered a "taxi", at most it can only be regarded as a "private bus".

Looking at the rising sun, there were not many guests in the station. Todd simply knocked on the front baffle of the carriage, waking up the coachman. Looking at the bewildered eyes of the coachman, he took out a silver coin from his waist and asked, "Can I rent this carriage?"

His eyes dangled with the coins, and when he realized that the driver was coming for a big deal, he suddenly regained his energy and grabbed the silver coins with his hands: "Guest, where do you want to go?"

Karin secretly tugged at the sleeves of the person beside her, and reminded in a low voice: "It's too much! One silver coin is enough for the two of us to take a carriage to Silver Ring City."

I don't know why, seeing the girl's heartbroken face, a kind of lovely and nostalgic thought slowly emerged in Todd's mind.

In the end, seeing the coachman biting the silver coin with his yellowed front teeth, Karin said with a look of disgust and hatred, "Fort Watcher, walk slowly, I want to see the scenery!"
