Chapter eight hundred and sixteen southern town
"Hurry..." Just as the wine merchants from the south gathered together to discuss whether to live outside the city for a while to avoid the chaos in the city, a member of the wine merchants association suddenly rushed in from the outside and gulped loudly.
Panting, he said: "Outside, outside..."
Seeing that the wine merchant could not speak a complete sentence for a long time, other wine merchants became anxious. They thought that things outside had turned into a riot. They quickly grabbed the wine merchant and asked anxiously: "Is there a riot outside?
?Have you already made trouble here?"
"No, it's not!" The wine merchant shook his head quickly, took a deep breath to calm down his breath and emotions, and then said: "There is a monster in the air outside."
"Monster?" The man-eating monster from a few days ago immediately appeared in everyone's minds, and their faces suddenly turned pale.
"It's not that kind of monster!" The wine merchant seemed to know what everyone was thinking. He shook his head quickly, then pointed outside and said, "I don't know how to describe it. You'll know when you go out and take a look."
After saying that, he ran out again regardless of the reactions of others. Everyone looked at each other with puzzled faces and followed him out.
After they walked out, they saw everyone on the street looking up at the sky with shocked faces.
Seeing this, everyone also looked up, and after being blinded by the short-term light, they quickly saw the scene in the sky clearly and saw the huge thing called the flying monster.
"The airship is an airship!" A knowledgeable person exclaimed loudly after seeing the unique and strange appearance of the flying monster.
Although not everyone present has seen an airship, they have all heard of it. After all, they have heard about Miria's tragedy, and the role played by the airship in that battle was also extraordinary.
, many sober-minded people believe that airships will definitely change the world's war situation, just like when steam weapons appeared and knights began to withdraw from the main force on the battlefield.
Now it is discovered that there is an airship in the sky, flying towards this side, and gradually descending, and it seems that it is about to land in the city. Everyone is extremely excited and novel about this matter.
Among these people, those businessmen are more aware of the commercial value of this airship. There is no doubt that if this kind of airship is used to transport goods, it will definitely reduce a lot of troubles and obstacles encountered on the road, and it will also reduce a lot of time.
.
This also made them eager to get to know the owner of the airship and talk to him about the use or production of the airship.
The appearance of the airship also attracted the attention of the city hall. While they were puzzled by the arrival of the airship, they were also grateful because just now the conflict between the military police and the people had caused a commotion, and things had become extremely tense.
There might be a fight, but the appearance of the airship immediately attracted everyone's attention, relieving the pressure just now.
Although this is only temporary, it at least gives them a lot of time to report the situation to their superiors and let them give them a solution.
However, even though their focus now should be on the chaos in the city, they are also very interested in the airship landing in the sky, so the officials from the city hall sent manpower to just follow the airship that was slowly landing. Once the airship landed, let them
People control the place and don't let other people, especially foreign businessmen, get close.
The airship descended very quickly. It was originally just a small dot in the sky, but soon became as big as a house. Many people could already see the rivets on the pod below the airship.
Finally, after the airship flew over half of Koor, it slowly landed on the large square in the business district.
The moment the airship landed, the gendarmes sent by the city hall had already surrounded the square and no one else was allowed to approach.
As the cockpits slowly opened, a noble woman wearing a gorgeous fur coat and a tall man wearing full armor had not yet stepped out of the airship's cockpit.
The people present were a little confused after seeing these two people, because the clothes of these two people were really different from the clothing styles in today's world.
For example, the fur coat that the woman is wearing looks like it is made of an animal skin. It has an ancient style and a lot of beautiful and mysterious patterns on it. The accessories on her head are also full of exotic style, but this exotic style.
Never seen it on anyone else.
The other tall man was completely dressed in an extremely gorgeous full-body armor. Even his head was covered by a helmet, and there were two big swords placed on his body. No matter how you look at it, it goes against the clothing of this era, and even
Even ancient knights would not be able to wear such armor.
As the largest official at the scene, the gendarmerie captain immediately stepped forward and prepared to ask the other party's identity.
But before the captain of the military police could speak, the female noble said in a bossy tone: "I am Sylvia Belmont from France, a guest of your queen. This is the pass issued by your palace minister. Now
My airship needs to rest here for a day. I hope you can send someone to maintain it here and prevent my airship from getting any damage. Do you understand?"
Hearing the commanding tone of the female noble, the gendarmerie captain felt a little unhappy, but he could feel an inexplicable pressure from Sylvia, which even the mayor did not feel.
In an instant, he subconsciously believed that what the other party said was true, so he restrained his displeasure and did not dare to say anything offensive. He silently took the pass handed over by Sylvia in a business-like manner and read it.
After checking the authenticity of the pass, he immediately saluted Sylvia, handed the pass back with both hands, and said: "Please rest assured, I will definitely send someone to protect your airship."
"In addition, my people need to buy some supplies. Please send someone to help buy them when the time comes." Sylvia took out a leather bag from her pocket, then took out a large cash check from the Daliyat State-owned Bank and handed it over
He went over and said: "All the costs for supplies will be deducted from here, and you decide what to do with the rest!"
After saying that, without waiting for any response from the other party, he and Leo walked out of the square. Those people surrounding the square didn't know why, but when Sylvia walked over, they all felt it.
Feeling an inexplicable pressure, they all lowered their heads and spontaneously gave way to a path.
After Sylvia left, the gendarmerie captain opened the cash check and looked at it. His eyes widened when he saw the digital glasses on it. In his opinion, even if the entire airship was filled with various supplies, the digital glasses on it would not be enough.
It is impossible to spend all the cash, and at least one third or more can be kept. This is definitely his biggest windfall this year or even in the past few decades.
Under the influence of huge profits and power, the captain of the gendarmerie was naturally very serious about protecting the airship. He immediately called a few capable men, led their people, and brought all the equipment to protect the airship. In addition, he also arranged some people to obey
The people on the airship ordered to replenish supplies. After doing this, he remembered to go to the city hall to report the situation, so he immediately rushed to the city hall and found the mayor who was holding a meeting to discuss things such as the relocation of deformed people from the city.
Waiting for others, and briefly introduced Sylvia's self and the reason for coming here.
"You mean that woman taught Sylvia Belmont?" After the mayor listened to the gendarmerie captain's statement, he immediately thought of something and asked in a confirming manner: "Is she from France?"
The captain of the military police nodded and affirmed: "Yes, when she introduced herself, she said Sylvia Belmont from France."
"Mr. Mayor, do you know her?" A noble looked at the mayor in confusion and asked.
"I have heard of her name." The mayor nodded and said, "She should be the same type of person as our Majesty the Queen, and even a member of the same mysterious organization."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Although not everyone present knows the Queen's identity as a witch, they all know that the Queen possesses an extremely powerful power comparable to that of a god, and that the Queen is also a member of a mysterious organization that is dominated by women. Every member of that organization has
A powerful and mysterious force. It is said that the king-selector of the Kingdom of Maris in the south is a member of this organization. When the queen ascended the throne, it was also because of the assistance of members of this organization.
Many people have been inquiring about the details of this organization, but they have found nothing. The only thing they know is that this organization is very large. Almost the entire Velen world has their members. Only a few people know that this organization is a witch group.
An organization formed by the witches who were hunted by the church in ancient times.
Although many Dalyat nobles were very curious about the organization of this witch group and wanted to find out its deeper secrets, in the end they either disappeared out of thin air or were kicked out of the Dalyat power circle by the queen.
.
"It looks like this airship will have to watch it fly away." A nobleman said with regret.
Although Sylvia is not their boss, nor is she a powerful person in Daliat's country, but as a member of the same mysterious organization as Her Majesty the Queen, she is not someone to be trifled with, so everyone present just
They also discussed how to get the airship and researched the people who could survive, but they all gave up.
A young official who had just been promoted from the bottom because of military merit frowned and said to the nobles present, "What's the point? Although she is the same type of person as His Majesty, her relationship with His Majesty may not be very good, and this airship is related to
Regarding the improvement of national strength, as long as we obtain the secret of the airship, even if we do something inappropriate in the process, I believe Her Majesty the Queen will not blame us."
After hearing what the young official said, all the nobles present looked at the young official with a strange look, as if they were looking at some incredible monster.
An old nobleman taught the young official an unceremonious lesson, saying: "Do you think we care about the fact that that woman and Her Majesty the Queen are members of the same secret organization? I really don't know how someone with a mind like yours can get into this situation.
Can the person in this position not even use her brain? What we care about is that she and Her Majesty the Queen have the same mysterious power."
When the young official was about to refute the old nobleman's words, a colleague on the side pulled his clothes and told him not to say anything more.
At this time, the old noble continued: "You of this generation only know that Her Majesty the Queen is worthy of awe, but you don't know why we are so in awe of Her Majesty the Queen! Because you have never seen Her Majesty the Queen when she is angry. If you see
If I had been there, I wouldn’t have asked such a stupid question just now.”
While speaking, some old nobles and officials in the conference room all nodded involuntarily. Although other young officials were not directly accused, they felt like they were being scolded, and their faces became a little ugly.
"Ahem! Okay, let's not talk about this matter." The mayor coughed twice to relieve the stagnant atmosphere around him, and then concluded: "Since this Ms. Sylvia is a guest of Her Majesty the Queen,
We have to take good care of it, and we can’t make people think that we Dyliads don’t know etiquette.” After saying that, he turned to the gendarmerie captain and said, “Just do what she ordered, and don’t show too much enthusiasm.
Just treat it as a normal foreign mission. Also, don’t let the commotion in the city disturb this lady. I don’t want her to describe the situation here as chaos when she sees Her Majesty the Queen. Do you understand?”
"Yes, Mr. Mayor." The gendarmerie captain nodded, then turned and walked out of the conference hall.
At the same time, Sylvia and Leo came to a private club called Thorn Club in the city's business district. At the door, she showed a metal card, and the big man waiting at the door respectfully led them there.
In a particularly large villa behind the club.
After sending them to the door, the big man turned and left. At this time, Leo turned his head and looked around, and said with a smile: "The protection here is very tight, but is it necessary?"
It turns out that there are a large number of guards lurking around the villa at the moment, and each guard has a strong smell of blood. It seems that they are all veterans who have been on the battlefield. They can mobilize so many veterans in Dialiat to give one
The club acts as a guard, and only Her Majesty the Queen can do it.
Sylvia put the metal card in her hand into the card slot next to the door and said: "Although this is Daliat, there will always be some reckless people who will do something unexpected, and they don't
As low-key as we are..."
"Low-key? I didn't expect you, Sylvia, to have the nerve to say you are low-key. If you are considered low-key, then who are we, in a mud puddle?" At this time, the door opened, followed by someone who sounded a little hoarse, but
Chapter completed!
