Mysterious journey

Shi Yan glanced at the two people lying there, especially the unconscious eleventh princess Tina. This cute little girl had blood on her forehead, her hair was disheveled, and her face was pale. The lips were still slightly purple, obviously slightly poisoned.

It is estimated that even with the protection of a beard, as an ordinary person, she would still be scratched by the poisonous smoke.

Seeing that Tina was in a bad state, Shi Yan finally made up his mind and turned the yellow wood ring on his middle finger.

Buzz!

The ring suddenly bloomed with a faint yellow light.

"Oh my god, I didn't expect that you actually dared to contact me? I'm really surprised." A sharp female voice came from the ring.

"Miss Nasha, I really have no choice." Shi Yan replied with a wry smile.

******************

Garen's face was gloomy and his hands were pressed on the armrests of the seats.

"I don't need you to help me resist evil intentions." He said calmly, "Get out of the way, kid."

"She is different from the totem master." The child slowly stepped aside, and the little girl had completely disappeared.

Instead, Grand Duke Cody narrowed his eyes and looked over.

The two looked at each other, and both saw an inexplicable look in each other's eyes.

Coincidentally, Garen and he both looked away.

"Different? What's the difference?"

The eldest princess and the fourth prince are competing to win the support of the nobles below, constantly performing and making promises.

Garen and the child communicated in low voices on their seats.

The child re-stands on the Galleon as the left side.

"I don't know either." He seemed to be thinking about how to explain. After a moment of silence, he spoke again.

"Our existence is different from that of ordinary people. Many differences."

Garen's eyes were sharp as he scanned around Duke Cody and found no sign of the little girl again.

"Interesting, I'm becoming more and more interested in that little guy just now." He felt faintly excited.

"She chose that person as her mark." The child suddenly pointed at Duke Cody.

"Mark? What is that?"

"It's a companion relationship. If we want to use our abilities, we must sign a mark with someone." The child made it clearer this time. "That's all I remember, and I can't remember the rest."

"Don't worry, you will find out eventually." Garen smiled, calmed down his emotions, and turned his attention to the venue again.

At this time, a huge white oval mirror was suspended over the venue.

Images of distant monster oceans appeared in the mirror. Countless groups of monsters rushed into the ground around the imperial capital, burning into white torches and quickly scattering into countless black ash.

Gradually, some powerful monsters began to retreat.

Although the lair owners are not very intelligent, they can still instinctively avoid threats and dangers. As the master of the lair retreated, the monsters subordinate to the lair also quickly retreated one by one.

As the monsters continued to retreat, waves of cheers came from the venue below.

Everyone was completely relieved.

Because the emotions in the venue were so intense that they could not be suppressed for the time being, they had to take a break.

Weisga, who was in a high position, stood up at this time, and the people who integrated the three legions whispered something, looking serious.

Duke Whitenock and the eldest princess stood together, talking and laughing about something.

The fourth prince is accepting close questions from the nobles below.

On the contrary, Grand Duke Cody stood up directly and walked towards Garen.

Garen also stood up.

"Your Excellency, I just saw the little guy behind you. He's really cute." He smiled and stretched out his hand.

The two shook hands with each other.

Hearing Gallon's words, Cody's eyes flashed with a sharp look.

"I didn't expect you were also the mark of the Listener. Over the years, I have seen only a handful of marks. I thought no one would know this secret anymore."

"Oh? What secret?" Garen looked confused.

"Don't you know?" Cody was slightly stunned.

"Should I know?" Garen asked.

"Can you show me the mark on your hand?" Cody paused and made a request.

Garen was about to reply when suddenly he felt his right hand being grabbed by a child.

Suddenly, a hot burning sensation came on the back of his hand. This feeling only flashes for a moment and disappears quickly.

Garen looked towards the child. I saw him shaking his head slightly.

"Sorry, it seems I was abrupt." Cody immediately smiled, said nothing more, turned around and returned to his seat to sit down.

Garen then raised his right hand and looked at it.

I saw a small red dot printed on the back of my right hand, like a tiny round red mole, like a dab of red ink on the back of my hand.

"What's this?"

"The mark." The child answered honestly, "I just heard that guy's question and accidentally put a mark on your hand."

"What's the use of this?" Garen was speechless.

The child's eyes showed distress.

"I don't know, this is the first time I've marked someone. Anyway, different marked people will get certain benefits, but this benefit can be easily absorbed by the same kind of plunder. After absorption, the ability of the successful plunderer will continue to become stronger. .”

"You have to be careful." The child finally added, "It seems that this mark can allow you to enter the world where I can listen."

"The world you heard about?" Garen's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, he was reminded of the world of secret martial arts before he traveled through time.

"Besides, you must protect me." The child quickly added, "That little girl just wanted to steal my ability."

"Okay, okay, I will protect you." Garen patted the child's head. "Although I don't know what happened yet."

"Sure enough, I chose you right!" The child took out a plum from his pocket with a smile. The plums were strangely black, so he threw them all into his mouth and chewed them loudly.

"Do you want it?" He took out another handful of plums and spread them in his hand.

Garen took a look at these plums. They were all round, with thin skin and thick flesh. They looked fresh and juicy.

But when he thought about the strawberry from last time, he suddenly lost his appetite.

"Forget it, just eat it yourself."

Come to your senses.

The venue has gradually quieted down.

The eldest princess spoke again.

"In today's meeting, as the representative of the royal family, I hereby announce that the Great Council of the Kuwaitan Empire has been established!!"

Wow! ! !

Thunderous applause.

Everyone in the audience applauded violently.

Then there is the allocation of seats. The threat was removed, everyone felt more relaxed, and the voting seats in the House of Representatives were divided according to the proportion of power. Everyone is fine with it.

Four major forces: the eldest princess and White Nok, the fourth prince and Cody, Garen and Edin, and the minor alliance. The four forces are the fundamental forces that determine the current situation in the imperial capital. So eighty percent of the votes are split equally.

Garen and Edin received twenty votes, which was ten votes each. The remaining twenty votes were divided among the small and medium-sized nobles, whose representatives came to vote.

In this way, the basic pattern is set.

Although it seems fair on the surface, in fact, the ones with the greatest advantage are White Nock and Cody. As dukes, they have many relatives below, and a large number of nobles of the nephew generation, occupying a large area among the ordinary middle-class nobles. Not a small proportion. It can greatly affect the final twenty votes of the public.

But anyway, Garen has no intention of fighting for power, as long as he lives a comfortable life. Rights come from strength, which is common in any world. He only needs to improve his strength, and his power will naturally become greater and stronger.

Finally the conference ended. Everyone dismissed the meeting and the door to the venue opened with a bang.

Everyone stood up one after another.

Garen walked toward the side door with the child and four Blackfire heavy guards.

"Palace Master." Suddenly the eldest princess's voice came from behind.

Garen turned around and saw the eldest princess approaching, wearing a black low-cut skirt that tightly tied her slender waist.

"Your Highness? What's wrong?" Garen bowed his head slightly and saluted.

"Can't I chat with you if I have nothing to do?" The eldest princess showed a hint of sadness. She approached Garen gently, leaning forward so that the tip of her nose almost touched Garen's chin.

"What I said before still counts." A voice as thin as a gnat passed into Garon's ears.

After the eldest princess finished speaking, she led the servant away with light steps.

Grand Duke Bainock nodded at Garen with an ambiguous smile, and then led others away.

"Boss, don't touch this woman." A child's voice came from behind. "There's something wrong with this woman."

"She uses this to control so many masters to serve her, so it's no wonder that there is no problem." Garen nodded clearly. "Let's go, this time we have determined the current situation in Kuwaitan."

The stabilization of the situation in the imperial capital will inevitably lead to the stabilization of surrounding areas, and the increasingly panicked people fleeing from other defense areas will gradually stabilize. But after this monster plunder, all the crops that were originally planted are probably scrapped, and the food problem is probably the biggest trouble at hand.

Garen suddenly thought of Baker Stone Eye and others. He has always used Baker Stone Eye as the criterion for judging the progress of history, and used it to see where history has reached its original position.

In the original history, during the period when the Black Sky Society rose and the royal family declined, due to continuous wars and turmoil, as well as monster plunder, although the Black Sky Society succeeded, the civilians also fell into an abyss of despair, lacking food and water. It must be purified before it can be eaten, everything is contaminated.

A large number of civilians starved to death because they were hungry and could not afford expensive food.

At this time, Dihuashe’s greatest advantage finally emerged.

Their strong control over plants allowed them to have unparalleled cheap crops and food, and the rice and various vegetables and fruits they produced won the support of the masses.

"I don't know if Ephesus's men found Shiyan's people." In the original history, Shiyan and others did not suffer such serious injuries after successfully escaping from the palace, but encountered a secret agency. That poisonous woman was seriously injured by her poison.

Now I don’t know if they will encounter that dark Nasha again.

"Is there anyone at the headquarters now?" Garen asked aloud.

"Very few, not a few." The child answered honestly.

"Let's go and have a look." If you can meet that Dark Nasha guy, it will be a good time to settle the previous grudges.
