Sword of Daybreaker

"The news from Tarrond? Is it related to the Wilde family?" Hearing Betty's words, Gawain's first reaction was a little stunned-he couldn't think of what happened to the Tarrond continent, which is far from the northern sea. It is possible to have a relationship with the Wilde family of the empire, but in the next second, a piece of information that has been forgotten by him suddenly came up from the depths of his mind, which made his face change a little, "let her directly Come to the study!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Betty immediately bent down to greet her, and then quickly got up and left the study, followed by the crisp "da da" sound of her trotting along the corridor.

After Betty went out, Gao Wen looked up and met Amber's gaze at the same time.

The eyes of the two met, and they nodded slightly. They had reached a tacit understanding before they spoke. He thought of the same direction, and Gao Wen's voice was low: "Do you remember the "Modier's Travels"..."

Amber also spoke almost at the same time: "Betty didn't forget the name of the guest when she came in this time to spread the word!"

Gao Wen: "..."

amber:"……"

"So you just nodded to me with a serious face just to say this?!" After half a second, Gao Wen finally tugged at the corner of his mouth and said, "I thought you were thinking of going with me!"

"I thought you were thinking of going together with me!" Amber's face wasn't embarrassed at all, but he kept the appearance of being straight and confident at all times, akimbo, "Who knows that you are so serious that you really want to be serious. Thing..."

While talking about this half-elf, he waved his hand vigorously, and before Gawain spoke, he forcibly changed the topic to the direction he should have been at the beginning: "Hey, don't talk about this, don't talk about this, I also remember what you said. It's - "Modier's Travels", I have to say what connection can be made between the Wilde family and Tarrond... Then I am afraid that the only thing that people can think of is that book."

Gawain blinked and frowned slowly: "Could it be that Tarrond found some new clues related to Modier's travel notes when he was churning the data pile in the wasteland? He found the one six hundred years ago. The aftermath of the great adventurer's troubles in the dragon kingdom? Still found something about the Tower of the Tide that was not recorded in the travel notes..."

Before he could say anything, he heard a rhythm of footsteps in the corridor, and then Melita Penia's voice came from the door: "You can guess more boldly."

Gao Wen looked up at the Miss Ambassador who was walking into the study, and subconsciously asked: "Guess more boldly? How to be bolder?"

Melita, wearing a lavender dress, stepped into the room, found a chair next to him and sat down very easily, and smiled at Gawain: "For example, we found the author of "Modier's Travels". "

Gawain & Amber: "..."

The study fell into silence for an instant, and it was not until nearly half a minute later that the silence was broken by Amber's unbearable exclamation: "Huh?! What are you talking about!? You are also digging the ancestral grave..."

"Shut up," Gawain thought there was something amazing about the goose's sudden high voice. He never thought that this guy would dare to mention this when he opened his mouth, and immediately frowned and pressed the words behind Amber back. His gaze fell on Merita again, and the expression on his face immediately became more serious. "Merita, I have to remind you that a race with a shorter life span like humans is very important to their ancestors. Tomb relics are very important, even if you are out of reconciliation needs to rebuild the Mithril Treasury, you must obtain the consent of the descendants of the parties involved..."

Melita kept her serious expression all the way to this point and finally couldn't hold herself back. She never expected that such a serious matter could go so far as a result of an interruption by a certain half-elf, not to mention anything in the past. Gawain Cecil, who seemed very serious at the time, would have such a jump in thinking on this topic-how should I put it, these two are really worthy of the "people stolen and obtained combination" in the world of digging graves. When encountering certain topics, it is inevitable that the thinking is much different from ordinary people...

"You guys think too much," Miss Lan Long hurriedly waved her hands. "We didn't offend any rester's grave this time. We are outside..."

"The lone grave in the wilderness is not good!" Before she could finish her words, Amber jumped out again, "That's how it belongs to the ancestors of others--even I haven't done this for several years..."

"Shut up!" Gawain had already woken up from the initial chaos at this time. He realized something, and immediately reached out and pulled Amber next to him a little, and at the same time looked at Merita, "Wait, Could it be possible that you have discovered... Modil Wilde, who is still alive? He is still alive?! And ran to Tarrond?!"

As soon as his words fell, Amber's eyes widened next to him, and what made this Shadow Assault Goose's eyes widened was that she saw the Dragon Clan Ambassador in front of her and nodded gently.

"This is indeed the case," Melita nodded after two seconds of silence. "This sounds shocking, I know, but we did find an'adventurer' who is highly suspected of'Modil Wilde' himself. , He is currently active in Tarrond, and our senior management has already been in contact with it."

Speaking of this, this Miss Lan Long stopped talking for a while, and turned to look at Gao Wen with a hint of curiosity: "But I am a little curious, how did you suddenly think of the correct answer-theoretically five The ancients who had died six hundred years ago suddenly reappeared in the world, and even ran to the dragon kingdom. This kind of thing is hardly imagined by most people."

"Because you are sitting in front of you with an'ancient' who was buried 700 years ago and is alive today," Gawain smiled, but his expression became serious again, "Well, this is just a joke. The real reason is ... things that can make your dragons suddenly nervous and also have something to do with the Wilde family, I really can't think of anything other than that "Modier's Travels", and you just said that you found its author-find the ancients It’s not possible to use the attitude you just did. In addition, I always have a vague feeling that I feel that there are too many weird entanglements in the great adventurer six hundred years ago. According to my experience, this In a world of extraordinary power, people with such heavy secrets usually don’t lie honestly in history books."

"Aren't people with such heavy secrets lying in the history books honestly..." Listening to Gawain's comments, Melita showed a thoughtful look on her face, and she seemed to look at it deeply. Gao Wen gave a glance and nodded slightly, "It makes sense."

"The look in your eyes just now was a bit weird, but as an'old man' who is really not very honest, I can only recognize it," Gawain shook his hand and looked at Merita with a solemn expression, "I'll talk about that one. Modil Wilde... To be honest, no matter what I said just now, I really can’t believe it is true at this time. How did you find him? What did he run to the mainland of Tarrond now? Has he revealed his purpose to you?"

"You probably won't believe it... The way the adventurer who is suspected of Modil Wilde arrived in Tarrond was unexpectedly ordinary: he followed a whole ship of adventurers to Tarrond. Yes, and before departure, he honestly registered the information in accordance with the regulations. Just under the nose of your navy commander and the entire fleet you sent to the north, he arrived in New Agundor.

"As for what is he doing there? It's very simple, living in the camp like an ordinary adventurer, helping with the construction of the barracks, taking on tasks, removing the monsters outside the camp... Basically that.

"In the beginning, we didn't find such a character among the adventurers at all. You can imagine that there are a large number of adventurers in the camp, and there are not many dragons who know the name'Modier', until One time the great adventurer shot and killed a fire element lord who did not know where he came from. There was too much noise, and he entered the sight of Speaker Andar and leader Hragor...

"Shortly after that, the leader of Hragor made contact with the adventurer, but from the news from the superior... this contact encountered a little problem, and the adventurer's situation seemed to be different. normal."

"Not normal?" Gao Wen noticed the word, frowning slightly, "Why is it not normal?"

"He seems to have amnesia, and he doesn't even remember his surname-the name'Modil' is the only thing he remembers about himself," Melita leaned forward slightly and said slowly, "and further During the contact, we found that he was not only unable to actively recall his surname, but if he received a strong stimulus related to himself from the side, his consciousness would even be'interrupted' and'reset' for a short time..."

"Is consciousness interrupted and reset?" Hearing Melita's words, even the amber expression on the side couldn't help being serious. "Then this situation is unusual... I remember that this happens only to the undead. The situation..."

"Yes, this is the case for the undead, but we can confirm that the great adventurer is a living person who can breathe, he has a very strong breath of life," Melita nodded to Kohaku, "Anyway, now Even the dragon can't explain what happened to Modil Wilde... Even we still dare not completely determine that he is the great adventurer Modil himself, and now we can only use "high suspicion". description."

Gawain listened carefully to every word that Merita said. He waited until the other person had finished speaking and nodded slightly in his thoughts: "An adventurer who may have survived six hundred years ago... There are some anomalies that are understandable. So, you are not sure about the identity of the adventurer, so you decided to come to me?"

"This is one of the reasons," Melita nodded slightly, "We really want to confirm the identity of the adventurer. At least the Wilde family should be notified of this matter, and there is another more important thing. The reason...we are worried that Modil Wilde's appearance may be related to the situation in the Tower of Upheaval."

"The Tower of the Inverse Tide?" Gao Wen opened his eyes slightly, and subconsciously adjusted a more formal sitting posture, "What's wrong with that tower?"

"No, at least the external observations turned out to be normal," Melita shook her head and said, "But you know that Modil once entered the tower six hundred years ago, and later it was our...the gods personally made it. Let him return to the human world safely, now our gods are no longer there, so..."

Gao Wen didn't wait for the other party to finish, and he knew: "You suspect that the Dragon God did not completely purify Modil's pollution, but just set up some kind of buffering'ban'. Now the power of the gods has faded, you Worried that Modil's return to Tarrond is behind the pollution consciousness of the Tower of Upsurge subtly promoting?"

Melita nodded.

"...Then you can only ask Enya directly about this matter," Gao Wen breathed out slowly, and after a little thought, arrangements were made. "Amber, you go and inform the Grand Archon Victoria and confirm Modi to her. El Wilde’s last record in the family; Melita, you go to the incubator room with me, and we directly consult Enya about what happened back then."

He stood up while talking, but Amber on the side showed a little helpless appearance: "Hey, wait — how do you tell Victoria about this matter? Just ask her to go back and check the ancestral grave. Is there anyone?"

Gao Wen stopped his movements, glanced at Amber silently, and nodded solemnly: "From the result...yes."

"Then she won't fly over from Winterfell to kill me?!" Amber suddenly jumped up, with an expression of "Old Zongzi, you will kill me", "Especially let me say this. ..."

Obviously, this half-elf who once changed the trajectory of the entire world history by stealing graves and digging tombs is quite self-aware in his professional field and personal reputation.

"Who asked you to speak so straight?" Gawain knew that this guy couldn't turn the corner again, his face showed a helpless expression, "Choose the words for yourself, think about how to clarify the situation quickly, don't let him come up. They go back and knock on the coffin of the ancestor."

While talking, he waved his hand and let Kohaku think about it. He quickly left the study with Melita and walked towards the incubation room.

Behind him, Amber in the study looked at Gawain’s leaving back, and stood there for a long time before muttering in a low voice: "Is it a little more tactful if I add a please in front..."

...

On the corridor leading to the incubation room, Gawain and Melita were walking fast. When they walked near the incubation room, Melita couldn't help but ask: "Recently... Master Enya has been helping take care of it. The dragon egg I brought?"

"Of course," Gawain nodded, "she is quite concerned about this."

He said so, but he had the second half of the sentence in his heart that he didn't feel embarrassed to say: The way of caring is a bit incomprehensible... Is it really necessary to incubate the dragon eggs every day and read the news?

Melita nodded lightly, the expression on her face was a bit complicated: "I really didn't expect that the gods of the past... even if they were only the remaining human aggregates of the gods, they would help take care of my dragon egg. To be honest, Every time I go to the incubator, I feel nervous to death."

Gao Wen glanced at Miss Lan Long and shook his head gently: "...You should relax. Enya's own personality is actually very approachable. Her unkindness was only restricted by the priesthood."

Melita hummed, and just about to say something, a rush of footsteps suddenly came from the front, interrupting the conversation between her and Gawain.

Following her reputation, she was seeing Betty, who was wearing a maid’s uniform, trot all the way from the direction of the incubator, her face was full of nervous and excited expressions.

"Betty!" Gawain also saw Betty and immediately raised his hand to greet him, "What's the matter in such a hurry?"

Betty speeded up a few more minutes, and ran all the way to Gawain and Merita before a sudden stop. The brakes were too fast and she almost "threw herself out". After shaking her feet twice, she stood still. He took a few breaths, and said with an excited expression on his face: "It's about to hatch! The egg that Ms. Enya is laying on is about to hatch!!"
