97. A bet with yourself(1/2)
Fisher had basically nothing to do in the next few days, because the academic conference was basically over.
According to the original plan, this morning the Golden Palace sent people to deliver invitations to the princes of Shivali, inviting them to visit the Golden Palace.
The person who came was of high status, he was Prince Rensis, the second son of King Gedelin IX.
Fisher met him from a distance. The prince's appearance was inherited from Gedelin's excellent blood, so he was quite handsome. However, his face was a little pale, which was similar to Trundle's. I don't know if he was in poor health.
His kidneys were overdrafted. Anyway, he looked a little weak standing next to the rosy-faced Lausanne.
He wore a formal dress and handed an invitation letter to Prince Shivali, and Prince Lausanne also agreed to the invitation to the Golden Palace in public. Then the two princes shook hands and the media took pictures...
Fisher was familiar with the process, but didn't pay much attention to it.
What really concerned Fisher was that since Prince Lausanne had been invited to the Golden Palace, it also meant that Princess Elizabeth, who was patrolling the army, would soon be back, and she would probably arrive in Saint-Neali tonight.
During the day, Fisher went to the city to meet with Trundle and asked him to help with two things.
The first thing he did was to ask him to use the power of the new party to help investigate the details of the [Healing Room]. Fisher had only heard this name from Milika before. At that time, he thought it was only for Saint-Nali.
A beauty spot for ladies, but since Jasmine's aunt sent this box back, it shows that it is not simple in itself.
According to Jasmine, this box originally contained some human candies, which were given to Jasmine. Now of course all those candies have gone into Jasmine's belly, and the content is nothing special.
But since it has something to do with Muxi, it would be better for Fisher to find someone within the New Party to understand the situation in advance.
There is a second thing that requires Trundle's help. He gave Trundle all the gold that Shiraki gave him last night. Their new party has a special sales department within the new party... Oh no, the digestion channel is better than the normal market price.
Get more Nario, but Fisher keeps those accessories.
Some of those designs are not in line with human tastes, and they probably won't sell for much, so they might as well leave them all to Renee as gifts.
The benefits that can be obtained in the new party far exceed those of your pure and strong will. Often people who enter the new party with pure beliefs will be completely corrupted within a few months. It is not that the bottom line is not strong, but that what can be obtained is too great.
If there are many, there will always be one that can easily defeat you.
So most of the New Party members are now sanctimonious hypocrites...except for Trundle, because this guy was pretty much corrupted before he joined the New Party. He even made a lot of progress after joining the New Party, and at least he will still put "Nari People"
It’s really gratifying to have such words as the goal of becoming a member of parliament.
As for not asking Trundle to help Jasmine before when she was selling gold, it was because the New Party now needed its own help, so it responded to requests. Otherwise, internal channels would not be so easily open to free people like Fisher.
After telling Trundle about the two things, Fisher rested for a long time in the rental house. He also took it out and turned it over. He didn't know if he didn't turn it over. After turning it over, he discovered the progress of his biological research on the whale race.
It's already over 20%.
Illusory words emerged and it read,
[Progress of research on whale species: 21%]
[Progress of research on whale race society: 19%]
[Unlocked rewards: Physique +2, Deep Diving Physique, Lake Fairy Poem]
The physical bonus was not that much, so Fisher didn't pay much attention to it. Instead, he studied the two subsequent rewards in detail. The first was the [Deep Diving Physique] in the literal sense.
[Deep Diving Physique: Strengthened lungs can help you resist the lack of oxygen and pressure in the water, and can also allow you to kiss as much as you want in the water with the Ocean Man. It’s very useful~]
Fisher's face was full of black lines, and he wouldn't be surprised if he said something shocking now. If he guessed correctly, the author must be a guy full of bad taste, and he doesn't know what kind of bad luck he got.
This kind of treasure...
But compared to other manuals, at least there is no dangerous knowledge recorded in it.
Fisher glanced at the Soul Completion Manual lying quietly next to him. He had not realized how deadly the knowledge recorded on it was before. Now Fisher plans to seal this manual indefinitely, neither continue research nor destroy it.
.
After all, Philon said that this kind of manual will instantly appear in another part of the world as long as it is torn up, and as long as the manual is too far away from him, it will automatically return to his owner, and he can't get rid of it, so Fei Luoen said.
Scheer had to carry them with him all the time.
As for the last reward...
Fisher looked at the ancient parchment scroll that appeared in his hand at this moment, and opened it. Fisher still recognized the text on it, and it turned out to be in Nali language.
It seemed to be written by someone in his own hand, so it looked a bit sloppy. It read,
"I'm here to make a fortune, I'm here to sing about victory, I'm here to reach the top, I'm here to wait for your return."
And then it's gone...
Fisher frowned and looked at the parchment, turned it over again, and found that it was just an ordinary piece of parchment.
Apart from the handwriting on it, there is nothing special at all, no magic, no hidden mechanisms, no hidden maps...
This made Fisher feel that this reward was a bit confusing. Even if the physical items given in the past were in different languages and there was no explanation, Fisher could roughly guess some ideas. This was the only thing that confused Fisher.
, and I don’t know exactly what it means.
The Lady of the Lake... sounded like a legend, but Fisher had never heard of it.
Fisher first wrote down the only obvious piece of information in the item [The Lady of the Lake], and then put the item away in the desk drawer.
After roughly settling the matter, Fisher washed his face and tested the [Deep Diving Physique] he had just acquired. He filled the bathtub with water, then buried his face in the bathtub and tried to breathe.
Fisher found that although he could barely breathe in the water, he was not used to it. He would choke on water easily after taking one or two breaths, and then his entire nose and throat would hurt.
It seems that if you want to truly breathe underwater without any hindrance, you need to practice a lot...
When Fisher was about to practice for the third time, Ms. Martha suddenly broke into the bathroom at an unknown time and pulled her pants out of the bathtub. When Fisher wiped his face, he looked at Ms. Martha's.
Only then did I realize that her face had turned pale with fright, and she said with trembling lips,
"Oh, dear, there's something you can't talk about properly. Why are you soaking your face in the bathtub all the time...Did Renee write a letter to break up with you? Or is this your scholars' unique way of thinking? Oh my God, what if
How can any family be willing to let their children become scholars if this is the case?"
"I just want to wash my face."
Fisher didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he couldn't explain it to her, so he could only say that he wanted to get angry.
He returned to the room and wiped his face and hair with a towel, only to find that Ms. Martha was still standing at the door of the room, looking worried that she would not be able to see the cute baby after he and Renee broke up, so he spent a lot of money.
Scheer had no choice but to change the subject and said,
"At this time, shouldn't you be playing cards with your neighbors or watering the vegetables? Or do you want to take a nap today?"
"Oh...oh! Yes, I have completely forgotten that I was worried that you were crazy or not so clear-headed. I originally made an appointment with Mrs. Sanger to buy some bread, but I met a gentleman at the door and said
It was your friend who wanted to see you, so I ran back to remind you, but I saw you sticking your butt out and putting your head in the bathtub... in the face?"
Fisher paused slightly while wiping, looked at Martha and asked,
"friend?"
"Ah, he's right at the door."
I had just planned to go to the University of Saint-Germain to study with Jasmine the items sent back by her aunt, but now another friend came to visit me...
Have you been a little too busy during this period? It’s not all about your own duties.
After hearing Martha's reminder, Fisher quickly walked downstairs, opened the door and saw a decent gentleman standing at the door. The gentleman was quite young, and Fisher knew this man.
..
"Mr. Fisher, long time no see!"
"Keken?"
I still remember that when he had just taken Rafael away from the Kozenin Circus, he went to Keken City, a city run by one of his descendants, in order to supply supplies on the way. The gentleman in front of him was Keken, the city lord of that city.
It's just that Fisher didn't expect that he would see this junior here again. It's not easy to travel between the Western Continent and the Southern Continent. I don't know why he is back now.
"Ha, it's me. Nice to see you again, Mr. Fisher."
"We haven't seen each other for a long time, it's been almost half a year..."
It wasn't until Fisher spoke again that he realized that he had left Rafael for almost five months, and the memory of the red dragon lady covered in fragrant steam leaving him seemed like yesterday.
..
With a little emotion, Fisher led Kerken into the living room, and he said hello to Ms. Martha who was about to go out.
Ms. Martha was going out to buy bread with her neighbors, while Fisher and Kerken returned to the room. The black mamba wine that Trundle gave to her before was still in the room, which could now be used to entertain this guest.
He still wears two rings on his fingertips. Fisher still remembers that he married two sisters from Kadu, but his current mental state is not good, he looks a little tired, and even the stubble on his face has not healed.
Repair, which made Fisher even more confused about the reason for his return.
After Fisher took out the wine bottle, Kerken took the wine glass and poured some wine for both of them. Fisher thought about it and asked about the reason why he returned to the Western Continent.
"You weren't doing well in the Southern Continent before, so why are you suddenly back to the Western Continent now?"
After hearing this, Kerken did not answer Fisher's words first. Instead, he looked around in the room, looking around, as if he was looking for something in Fisher's room.
"What are you looking for?"
Hearing Fisher's question, Kerken touched his head in embarrassment and said,
"Oh... Well, Mr. Fisher, I would like to ask, is the red dragon-like person who was traveling with you still here? Or did you sell her?"
Fisher was slightly stunned after hearing this, took a sip of wine and responded,
"nothing..."
