Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Hobert thought of the murals he saw in the temple. It was only after the Raging Sea was formed that the saints of the elves heard the voice in the darkness.

What also concerns Hobert is that there is no description of the foggy area in the mural, or the place where reality and the spiritual world meet.

After connecting these doubts with the "high-dimensional overlooker", a relatively rigorous logical chain formed in Hobert's mind:

After the violent sea was formed, although the saint of the elves blocked the violent weather from the island, he could not prevent the collision between the spiritual world and the space on the island.

The "high-dimensional overlooker" used the spirit world to avoid the earth's protection in the star realm, and projected weak power into this special area, polluting the saint and the remaining elves in this sea area.

So they changed their beliefs and tried to bring the "high-dimensional overlookers" to come.

The arrival of the "high-dimensional overlooker" caused violent chaos in the space on the island, so there were so many fragments of two-dimensional space that one-third of the entire island was shrouded in fog, becoming a reality. A place of communion with the spirit world.

What happened next, Hobert described in the cave, is precisely because when the mist appeared, the elves were already sacrificing their lives to the "Lord of Storms", so there is nothing about the mist in the elven ruins. Description and related clues.

This is the most logical guess Hobert made based on the available clues. He thinks it should not be much different from the facts.

Then Hobert thought of the "Trunsoest Empire", which looked like it was larger than an aircraft carrier. It was somewhere in the violent sea.

Like the legend, it was as big as a city, but their expected passengers didn't know they were members of the Trunsoest family? Or the Hades Emperor Salinger?

Since this is a trap, I wonder what specific abilities it has?

Thinking of this, Hobert shook his head. He currently had too little information to make a logical guess.

However, thanks to the ghost ship he encountered in the fog, Hobert had some guesses about the location of the "Trunsoest Empire": it should have been blown by the storm to the place where the spiritual world and the real world blend.

It’s hard to say exactly where it is, but it’s certain that it’s in the unexplored area of ​​the Raging Sea.

After thinking about these problems, Hobert took a deep breath and brought the "Ocean Pendant" into the real world in the way of blessing.

It was getting dark at this time, so Hobert temporarily "closed" the oil painting, rested for more than half an hour, and went to the front yard to have dinner.

What surprised him was that Helen also appeared at the dinner table. When she knew that today's dinner was only mutton stew and Fenebot noodles: "Sir, you are also a noble after all, how can you eat these things?"

Hobert used chopsticks. Yes, he asked the carpenter who was renovating the mansion to make a few pairs of chopsticks for him, but they were a little longer and a little thicker than he expected.

Fortunately, Hobert's strength has also improved a lot, and he is relatively easy to use.

After eating the noodles with chopsticks, Hobert sighed that this was the correct way to open the noodles. It was too boring to eat noodles with a knife and fork.

After chewing almost all the food in his mouth, Hobert said: "Let the chef know in advance what you want to eat. As long as it's not too much, let him try his best to satisfy you."

It was just a little food, and Hobert was certainly not stingy.

"I want to eat you." Helen stuck out her tongue and lightly licked her seductive lips.

Hobert was a little helpless: "Using 'Charm' at the dinner table will affect your appetite."

Helen smiled and put away her "charm": "This at least proves that you are a normal man."

As she spoke, she happily ate her dinner, as if the plate of mutton in front of her was even more delicious than before.

After dinner, Hobert returned to the bedroom again, and then used "travel" to come to Christine's mansion. The paper, pen and ink, stationery, etc. he had asked Dopheus to buy before were neatly stacked in the room.

When Hobert went to thank Dophis, he realized that Kristen had not gone out to attend the banquet today, so he and Dophis went to Kristen's living room to meet her.

During the chat, Hobert briefly talked about the situation in his territory.

Kristine said: "If we really can't deal with those secret organizations, I can take action to scare them. It's not good to let a witch stay in the mansion."

Then he changed the topic: "Maybe there is another way."

Christine smiled and said: "Now I can be considered a popular person in front of the king. Although I have offended some powerful people because of the reform, there are also many people who hope to use my power to get more political resources.

"So they used the simplest and most effective trick: marriage!

"But your mother, Donna, and Tyron will be coming to Feneport City in a few days. It seems that they just remembered that Count Christine has a wife."

Hobert asked: "Mom, are they okay?"

"They left Backlund so early and were not affected." Kristen explained, and continued: "And Donna and Tyron have never met, so they are targeting you.

"In the past two days, there have been more than a dozen nobles and arms dealers who want to send their daughters to your territory along with their dowries.

"I can help you arrange a marriage, and the strength of the woman's family can help you develop your territory. You can also use the strength of your wife or his family to check and balance the representatives sent by the Gnosis Society, but don't expect to be here. Find love in a marriage."

This made Hobert slightly stunned. He remembered that the last time he was so popular, he was still in high school.

At that time, he was tall and handsome, and he could also play basketball.

Hobert smiled bitterly and said, "Can I refuse?"

He has so many secrets about him, I really don't dare find a pillow person that I don't trust at all.

"Yes." Christine smiled: "But unless you are like me and have a wife on the way, it will be difficult to refuse the enthusiasm of the nobles of Feneport."

He paused and then said: "Especially after you have made some achievements in your own territory, the earls and dukes may ask the king to intervene in your marriage. At that time, you will not be able to refuse even if you want."

Hobert thought for a while: "Give me a few days to think about it."

Kristine nodded: "Of course."

Returning to the fief, Hobert thought for a long time, not knowing whether he should accept Christine's arrangement?

So he changed his mind: "Do I need a wife now?

"No, what I need is a shield, a trustworthy and close partner, but I just don't need a wife.

"Then the problem is simple, you can hire a lady!"

Hobert seemed to have found a solution and fell asleep in constant fantasies.

Early the next morning, Hobert looked at the lord's mansion that was under repair and asked Philip: "The mansion is almost ready, and I have regained the power to govern the territory. Do you think I still lack anything as a baron?"

"Sir, you still need a baroness."
