Violet Empire, Royal Capital Salamun

Floor 1 of Liuli Pavilion, Room No. 17, Copper

Ai Fanye, a trainee priest of the Sun God Sect, was curled up on the sofa and fast asleep. The sunlight filtering through the curtains shone on her body, coating the girl's smooth flaxen hair with a layer of golden color. She didn't know she was dreaming. What? Xiao Ai's innocent and pretty baby face was slightly frowned, and there was an indescribable sadness between her brows. But just a few seconds later, her sad look gradually disappeared, and her frowning brows relaxed. Come on, a faint smile even curled up at the corner of his mouth...

On the fingertips of her right hand hanging by her side, a pale golden spark flashed fleetingly.

Two minutes later, the door was gently opened, and a young man with a black eyepatch on his left eye and black tights walked in quietly.

[Well, according to the normal routine, now I should just find a warm coat, pretend to be tiptoeing but actually cover her with enough movement to wake up this girl, but...]

Mo Tan casually took off the mask on his face, stood in front of the sofa with a smile, then leaned down slightly and blew hard into the girl's ear: "Wake up!"

"Wow!!!"

The little priest who was suddenly strongly stimulated trembled violently, then lost his balance in a hurry and rolled to the ground from the sofa. He gasped for a while with lingering fear before standing up slowly and smiled coquettishly at Mo Tan. Smile: "Sir, are you back?"

"Well, I just came back."

Mo Tan took out a round, steaming plate of food that Xiao Ai had never seen before from nowhere and handed it over: "Breakfast~"

"Ah, thank you sir! I should be the one preparing the food..."

Xiao Ai hurriedly took the 'food' in front of him, and then carefully grabbed one and put it into his mouth under Tan Mo's gaze and took a small bite. Then he widened his eyes and said vaguely. Said: "Three times! What does a square... look like?"

"Oh, this stuff is called Sauce Pork Buns. I made it myself." Seeing that Xiao Ai didn't feel any strange after taking a bite, Mo Tan took out another bun from his bag and took a bite himself. As he ate, Mo Tan sighed: "Sure enough, the problem is not with the ingredients in this world. Tsk tsk, they are obviously substitutes with similar properties. That woman can actually turn the food into weapons, armor, adhesives, explosives and even crowbars... Is it really a talent gap..."

Xiao Ai didn't hear what Mo Tan said clearly. The girl just devoured the bun in her hand, and then exclaimed in surprise: "Sir, you made this yourself!?"

Mo Tan nodded and shrugged: "Yes, I picked it up when I went for a walk in the morning. The shops in the old city have quite a lot of stuff, so I just bought some salt shell crumbs, Pera grass leaves, and coarse rice flour. , ground grass stalks, black sherbet, herb pork chops and some other random things, and then I found a shabby tavern and went into the back kitchen to make some random things.”

"Sir is so awesome~"

Xiao Ai smiled sweetly and exclaimed with an expression that said, "I didn't quite understand it, but I think it's awesome." "It's really delicious."

"Really~"

Mo Tan nodded noncommittally, went to sit on the sofa opposite Xiao Ai, and asked with a chuckle: "What time did you go to bed last night?"

"Ah, I didn't pay attention to the time." The girl was stunned for a moment, then tapped her chin with her index finger and said hesitantly: "But it must have been before dawn, um, about three or four o'clock."

Mo Tan nodded slightly: "I see, but I think you are a lot more energetic than you were two days ago~"

The little priest nodded obediently and said: "Well, I felt much more relaxed after talking to my husband that day, and you also relaxed your requirements on me, so..."

"Don't get me wrong." Mo Tan suddenly raised his hand to interrupt her, wagging his index finger and smiling: "It is not relaxing my requirements to let you not think about anything else but to concentrate on studying the lowest level Yang Yan Technique. If you really press my If you say try it, it’s definitely not a simple task~”

Xiao Ai was stunned for a moment, reacted for a few seconds, and then whispered: "Don't worry, I have never relaxed!"

Mo Tan nodded and smiled at the girl in front of him, whose views had been subverted several times by him: "You have no talent, at least in terms of divine arts... you can almost be said to be miserable..."

"Yeah, I know." Xiao Ai didn't seem to feel how hurtful the other party's comment was at all, and just nodded as he should: "I was also the worst in the academy before. Cole's understanding is very high, what? They are all easy to master, and they are among the best in both schoolwork and practice; La... Lada is very strong, and even the instructor has a hard time taking his heavy sword during actual combat practice; Lorna is a genius, and many people think that she can at best It takes only two years to be promoted from apprentice to junior mage; I am the worst, not only far behind their progress rate, but even worse than those juniors in the sect who are more junior than me. "

Mo Tan raised his eyebrows, then clapped his hands twice: "You are very self-aware, so do you know why I suggest you devote all your energy to [Yang Yan Technique]?"

Xiao Ai shook his head in confusion: "I don't know..."

"First of all, your learning ability is very poor, and there is nothing that can attract the attention of that 'god'." Mo Tan smiled slightly and said to the girl quite seriously: "In this way, that huge magical power The burden of the system is too heavy for you. As long as it is a slightly higher level magical spell, let alone being proficient in using it, even basic mastery is a problem, especially in the environment of the Knight Academy, where you are forced to Continuing this kind of practice with half the effort will only make you a complete dilettante. Of course, even if you have been practicing as a priest in a less stressful atmosphere like the church, the result may not be much better~"

Xiao Ai nodded awkwardly: "Thank you for not disliking me..."

"You're welcome, I'm just explaining why I let you only practice Sun Flame Technique~"

Mo Tan waved his hand and said leisurely: "The Sun Sect's [Yang Yan Technique] has the highest potential among all the lowest-level divine arts. It does not require much understanding to understand it, and it does not require any piety to master it. It is also very comprehensive. It has both healing and attacking effects, and it’s simply a magical technique tailor-made for idiots like you who have no talent or understanding~"

"but……"

The young priest twisted his body uneasily and whispered: "Yangyan is only the lowest level of magic. Although it has a variety of uses, it is too weak compared to other high-level magic."

"Yes, that's right." Mo Tan nodded suddenly, and then asked Xiao Ai curiously: "Then do you know those high-level magic skills of the ox?"

The latter shook his head wildly like a rattle.

"In that case." Mo Tan stretched out, leaned comfortably on the sofa and smiled: "Why not change your mind and try to maximize this lowest level of magic?"

Xiao Ai blinked, a little unsure whether he understood the meaning of 'sir' well.

"Okay, this question is over for now. Maybe I will tell you some of my thoughts and guesses in the future, but that is for the future." Mo Tan obviously had no intention of continuing to explain, and just changed the topic lightly: "What I told you before...it's about things like Fire Claws, Marshalls, slave trading, do you remember?"

Xiao Ai nodded, although he didn't know what the meaning of what he said to him was, but it was about the Marshall family's slave trade, the Fire Claw Territory's suffering from evil neighbors, the sacrifices of 'agent' Ned and Fenrir's team, and even the Fire Claws. She already knew everything about Futaba, the senior advisor, driving Buffy Marshall into a corner. These were all things Mo Tan had told her before.

Mo Tan smacked his lips in relief, and then asked her with a smile: "Do you think it is possible for the Marshall family to make a comeback now?"

Xiao Ai tilted her head and thought for a moment, then shook her head slightly and said, "It shouldn't be possible..."

"Really?" Mo Tan whistled briskly, raised his eyebrows at Xiao Ai and said: "Let me give you a hint, until now, whether it is the Fire Claw leader and his group who are the core of this incident, who are banned in the red Marshall, his party, and the other six lords in the courtyard are still staying in their own courtyards~"

The little priest frowned in confusion: "What's the question...ah, wait a minute! Could it be that..."

Mo Tan gave the former an encouraging smile: "Go on."

"I remember that the joint investigation team should have arrived in Mercury City last night, and the main person in charge of that team is Prince Ribo. According to the previous situation, if the evidence of slave trading by the Marshall family is conclusive, then after the intelligence is passed on, The second supreme meeting should be held as soon as I get back."

Xiao Ai subconsciously raised his head and touched his lips lightly, and whispered: "Whether it is conveying the news through the use of wind falcons, young eagles and other magical beasts, or whether it is through the transmission of letters from the Wizards Guild of Mercury City, at least His Majesty the Emperor I must have known the conclusion a long time ago, but..."

"But the Purple Nine Hall has not been opened until now. Not only has Emperor Clairvaux not started the Supreme Meeting again, he has not even summoned any nobles. Of course, he has not interviewed Buffy Marshall alone." Mo Tan sneered and looked at the man outside the window. As in the noisy streets of the past, the corners of his mouth turned up uncontrollably: "Even if someone wants to seek benefits from Marshall or make some shady deals, they will definitely wait until after the second Supreme Meeting, so the current situation is very ~Very thought-provoking~”

Xiao Ai nodded thoughtfully: "Is it true that the Marshall family has nothing to do with slave catching and trading? So the investigation team did not find the 'evidence' provided by the Fire Claw Territory?"

"The investigation team may have gained nothing, but I don't think the Marshall family is clean." Mo Tan raised his chin happily and said with a smile: "But your previous guesses were very good, although you still need a little more Reminder, but after all, you haven’t been out since last night, so you still deserve praise~”

"Thank you, sir." Xiao Ai smiled shyly, and then asked with some confusion: "But why do you want to tell me these things? Do we also have to participate?"

Mo Tan shook his head: "It doesn't matter to you even if you want to get involved a little bit. Remember, before we leave the Violet Empire, you just need to be a bystander. I will tell you during this process." You have some considerable information, and you need to think about it, figure it out, and be ready to answer the questions I raise at any time. For the specific content, please refer to the one just now."

Xiao Ai said 'hmm', then nodded nervously and said, "I will try my best."

"Relax, I just think you are quite keen, so I plan to train you a little bit." Mo Tan stood up lazily and showed an elusive smile: "Even if you are not of use for the time being, you can still look forward to it in the future. Just a moment~"

The girl nodded in understanding, feeling sincerely happy about Mo Tan's expectations for her.

"Then let's do this for now." Mo Tan ruffled Xiao Ai's hair with his hand, then turned and walked towards the door: "Concentrate on practicing your Yang Yan Technique under 'limited circumstances'. Success is achieved by Qi It is made of hard work and nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-three points of talent. My requirements for you are not high, just seven ten thousandths is enough~"

"yes!"

"By the way, do you still want to eat steamed buns?"

"Ah...thank you sir!"

Futaba, who had not waited for any news until now, sighed deeply, smiled bitterly at Cassie and Levin in front of him and said, "Something happened..."

Salamoun Royal Quarter, Tricolor Courtyard

Emperor Clive Cresto finally burned the magic letter in his hand that he had read repeatedly for a long time to ashes. He raised his hand and patted his second son who was dozing next to him and asked casually: "What are you doing?" look?"

"Uncle Buffy is so cunning and cunning that he deceived us all~"

The second prince, Xiucresto, yawned lazily and moved his chair to the side: "Father, please don't disturb my sleep."

Clairvaux acted as if he didn't hear it and just continued to ask him: "So you still think there is something wrong with the Marshall family? Even if the investigation results sent back by Ribo have proven their innocence."

"I have no doubts about your brother. He is as loyal and honest as your father." The second prince Xiu covered his face with a book of poetry and said feebly: "And the investigation results did not completely prove that the Marshall family is innocent. , my father, although none of the evidence provided by the Fire Claw Leader was anything more important, but under the supervision of Archduke Baroka and Miss Crystal Wolf, the investigation team found a lot of less important evidence. The evidence is quite consistent.”

"I am your father, Hugh." Cleve Cresto looked at his careless second son with a headache, and said angrily: "You can make your words more clear. I have always had expectations for you. !”

"No, I don't want to get involved in these things, and I'm in a bad mood..."

"You...why are you in a bad mood?"

"The bet was lost."
