There is plenty of light in the office, and through the glass window you can see the sidewalk across the street. Most of the pedestrians passing by have their heads lowered and their hands put into their coat pockets.
This office is not very big, and can only accommodate two desks. Hathaway's desk is by the window, and Beatrice's desk is placed at the door of the room.
There was no sofa in the room. Suldak sat on the chair opposite the desk and looked at the layout of the room. There was only one glass window in the room. The white gauze curtains on both sides of the window were covered with exquisite hollow patterns. The desk
There was a mountain of official letters piled on top, which was a bit messy.
Hathaway was pulled in front of Suldak.
She tied her blond hair on top of her head and wore a tube skirt and lace shirt. She looked smart and capable, which also highlighted her slender waist and perky breasts. She held her soft waist and looked up at her green eyes.
, she was born as a swordsman and has an extremely well-proportioned figure, with a faint scent of perfume on her body.
Hathaway took the tea cup from Beatrice.
He took a sip of warm black tea.
"When did you arrive?" Hathaway asked Suldak, sitting on the desk.
"Yesterday, I went to the magic market to complete some transactions. I'm sorry for not coming to see you as soon as possible." He took her green-white fingers and intertwined them together. Her nails were painted with beautiful nail polish, both light and dark.
They have completely different skin tones, and the skin on the palms of their hands is so delicate.
"Miss you!"
Hathaway hugged Suldak and said.
Her arms were wrapped around his neck, and a faint and sweet fragrance rushed into his nose.
Beatlet also came over from behind Suldak, and the three of them looked like human-shaped sandwiches.
"I miss you too..."
When Suldak said this, his heart beat several times, and something in his heart seemed to have broken through the moral cage.
It wasn't until someone frequently passed by the door of the office and responded with a polite smile, and then their eyes would always fall on Suldak, that Hathaway restrained her inner joy and took the initiative to leave. She didn't want to be treated like a fight.
The demonic beasts in the animal farm were watching wildly.
Suldak asked the two of them: "Why do you suddenly want to work in the Foreign Affairs Bureau?"
Hathaway stretched, sat down on the chair opposite the desk, and said slowly: "You have to find something to do for yourself, so that your life will not be so boring."
Beatrice and Hathaway huddled together and said in a slightly complaining tone: "I haven't heard from you all winter. Didn't I say that you went to the desert to clean up sand bandits?"
Surdak nodded and said casually: "I killed some desert bandits and robbed some of their horses. I lived in the desert for almost 50 days before returning to Wall Village, and then rushed back to Bena City without stopping.
.”
He didn't mention what he had seen with Harvey Gofello yesterday. He took out two exquisite silver knives from his arms and handed them to Hathaway and Beatrice. The scabbards were inlaid with red, blue and green gems.
Looks extraordinarily gorgeous.
"Is this a gift for us?" Beatrice asked happily, holding the silver knife and comparing it with Hathaway's.
Surdak nodded and said: "I think the trophies I snatched from the sand thieves are pretty good, so I'll bring them to you."
Hathaway looked through it carefully, then brought it to her mouth and smelled it. She found that there was no peculiar smell. She pulled out the knife and saw fine gold lines on the blade. While admiring it, she said: "It's a good gift. I must give it a try."
It sounds so bloody... Hey, the blade of this knife seems to be mixed with fine gold!"
There were no marks on the knives, and they were snatched back from the robbers. The provenance of these two exquisite knives could not be traced, but fortunately both women liked them very much.
"Would you like to visit the environment where I work?" Hathaway asked Suldak with a smile.
"Okay!" Suldak said.
Seeing that her colleagues in the Foreign Affairs Bureau were particularly curious about Suldak, Hathaway simply took Suldak for a walk in the courtyard behind the Foreign Affairs Bureau, and introduced him to the surrounding buildings. The three of them walked together.
I will take a walk in the arched cloister covered with ivy, the low shrub wall in the courtyard has just sprouted buds, and the air is filled with the faint fragrance of tree oil.
"This place looks pretty good." Surdak admired as he looked at the brightly lit office building.
The buildings in Bena City are indeed much more grand than those in Hillanza Mountain City.
Not long after, I heard the clear and melodious ringing of the bell on the top of the building, which startled a group of pigeons who had landed on the bell tower to rest.
When the bell rings, it means the lunch break has begun. The lunch break for Benac City municipal officials is about two hours. Many people don't like to work in the afternoon and will choose to work half a day.
"You can go..." Beatrice couldn't wait to pull Suldak towards the door of the Foreign Affairs Bureau.
The Luther family's carriage was parked on the side of the road. Hathaway and Beatrice boarded the magic caravan and finally relaxed. The bold Beatrice even pulled her long skirt up a little and sat astride it.
Surdak's legs were wrapped around his neck, and her soft lips pressed against hers, making Surdak feel how fierce her heart was.
The magic caravan did not stay where it was, but slowly merged into the traffic on the street.
The scenery outside the window kept moving backwards, and then Suldak asked: "Where are we going this afternoon?"
Hathaway and Beatrice looked at each other and then looked out the window. Hathaway said: "I haven't decided yet. Let's go and find a restaurant to eat first."
"I know that a good restaurant has opened on the street by the east gate of Newman Castle. It is popular to eat chilled fish in the Green Empire this year. The fish in that restaurant is pretty good." Beatrice told Surda
Ke recommended.
Surdak actually doesn't really want to eat fish in his heart. In the Green Empire, fish seems to be a favorite food of elves and Naga sea tribesmen. Empire people prefer whole-wheat bread, cheese, broth, vegetable salads, etc.
To match, the lives of common people are simpler, and scones and oatmeal are essential things in life.
Especially the mora fish hanging in Sander's butcher shop, which looked like a combination of ghost swordfish and octopus. Even if he knew that eating this kind of fish could enhance the body's resistance to water elements, Surdak didn't have much interest.
"Then let's go there and try it today." Suldak agreed. He didn't want his personal preferences to dampen Beatrice's interest.
I used to look at the castle in Pena from a distance, and I just thought that the Newman Castle, located in the northern part of the city, was very majestic. Now when I drove to the ring road outside the castle wall, I realized that the castle was even bigger than what I saw.
There are many, but the outer wall is nearly twenty meters high. If it is in other places, a twenty-meter-high building can almost build a five-story building, but here it is only three stories.
The windows opened in the outer walls are all small, which are convenient for observation and archery. It is impossible for adults to get out of such windows.
The castle is made up of numerous buildings piled up like a hill. The high roof has a bit of Gothic style. When people stand under the castle, a sense of awe naturally arises in their hearts.
The ring road outside the castle has a high wall on one side and a river bank on the other. The entire castle is surrounded by clear river water. Only on the other side of the river are some shops opened by nobles. This is the center of Beicheng District. The shops here only accept nobles.
, and prices are at least twice as high as in urban areas. Of course, the services you receive are absolutely different.
This restaurant is very new, and the dishes it makes are no better than other high-end restaurants, but the restaurant is located just across the river bend, and the scenery outside is very good. Sitting by the window of the restaurant, you can enjoy the panoramic view of Newman Castle.
Surdak ate the last piece of fish on the plate, thinking that if he had a chance, he could take Samira here to try it.
He turned to the table knife in his hand, took a sip of sweet wine, and looked out the window at an arched stone bridge two hundred meters away. It looked very lively, with pairs of knights on war horses and vehicles loaded with supplies.
Keep driving across the bridge.
Surdak asked curiously: "Why is it so lively over there?"
Hathaway walked up to him, followed his gaze and explained to Suldak: "We started changing defenses at the beginning of the year. Probably every day, a large amount of supplies and troops went to various private planes, and there were also people from the plane.
For the troops returning from their rotation, that bridge is one of the main roads connecting the inner courtyard and garden of the Pena Castle, so it is certainly more lively than other places."
Surdak still remembered that the expedition to the Maca plane was in a square. There was a portal made of dragon bones in that square. It looked very shocking visually, so he asked: "When we went to the Maca plane,
When I entered the plane, it seemed to be in a square, but I don’t remember walking across this bridge.”
"Many planes, including the Bailin plane, are the private planes of Duke Newman. Naturally, they will be built in the back garden of Newman Castle. The Maca plane is the coordinates of the plane bought by the lords of the Bena Province.
That's why the portal was built in Dawn Plaza." Hathaway also looked at the bridge curiously.
"How about we go to the inner courtyard garden and take a look at the plane portal over there. I haven't been to the garden over there for a long time. It seems that no one has held a dance there recently." Beatrice suggested.
Hathaway frowned and said hesitantly: "It's too crowded over there. The road should be under military control at the moment. It's probably difficult to sneak in without a pass."
Hathaway turned to Suldak and asked: "Dak, what else do you have to do before going to the Bailin plane?"
Surdak thought for a while before saying: "I plan to take time out in the next few days to go to the Bena City Military Logistics Department to purchase a batch of standard weapons. The weapons used by the cavalrymen in my cavalry battalion are very mixed. Only by unifying the weapons can we form a more uniform weapon."
Strong combat effectiveness.”
"How about we accompany you to the munitions department?" Beatrice and Hathaway looked at each other and said almost at the same time.
"Okay, I also want to know where the Military Supplies Department in Bena City is." Surdak patted his forehead and said.
…
Military Supplies Department In the back square of the Bena City Hall, there is a large yard outside the Military Supplies Logistics Department. This yard is filled with various magic caravans and covers an area as big as a water polo. Almost all the people who exchange supplies here are
There was a sea of people, and nearly twenty long queues zigzagged into the courtyard.
Looking at the long queue, Suldak couldn't help but have a headache.
He found that he was standing at the end of the queue at this time. If he wanted to be in line, he would probably have to wait until tomorrow morning.
Obviously Beatrice and Hathaway also misjudged the excitement here. Suldak looked to the left and right sides and said: "Otherwise, let my men line up here first, probably tomorrow morning."
It’s my turn.”
"This place is actually more lively than the inner garden, but we don't need to wait when we get here. Hathaway's classmate and I work as logistics quartermasters here, and we can ask her for help." Beatrice said.
"Classmate of the Swordsman Academy?" Surdak asked.
"Yes, she is one year older than us. She has been working in the Military Logistics Department since graduation. You guys wait for me here while I go find her." Beatrice said.
Not long after, Beatrice followed a young female swordsman and squeezed through the crowd while talking and laughing. After seeing Hathaway, the two hugged each other. The heroic woman
The swordsman put his arms around the shoulders of Hathaway and Beatrice and said happily: "We haven't seen each other for a long time. Haven't you two attended the dance recently?"
Beatrice glanced at Suldak next to her and said with a smile: "The dance here is just a few familiar faces, which is really boring. We don't need to attend the dance right now. His name is Suldak."
, from the city of Halanza.”
"I have heard others mention it before. He is so tall and tall. Is Helensa also in our province of Bena?" The female swordsman stretched her brows and the three women whispered.
"Of course!" Beatrice took the female swordsman's hand and said, "Senior Sister Agnes, we are looking for you this time to exchange for some military supplies at the military supply office."
"Exchange for military merit or purchase with gold coins?" The female swordsman asked Surdak directly. She looked at Surdak curiously.
"Buy." Suldak said.
The female swordsman nodded slightly and asked: "What supplies are needed, magic pattern cloth, magic beast leather, various magic metal materials, etc. These are easier. If you want magic herbs, I can't do anything about it. Now there are magic herbs
The management is very strict, and I can help you with everything else."
"I want to buy some cavalry-style weapons." Suldak said.
The female swordsman looked to the left and right, and then said cheerfully: "That's it, then come with me!"
A group of four people walked through the crowd, with the female swordsman walking at the front. She skillfully pushed aside the crowd blocking the way.
"Can the materials here be exchanged for military merit?" Surdak followed and asked.
The female swordsman's eyes were a little surprised, but she still said: "Of course, but nobles rarely exchange military merit for supplies."
Suldak had already made some plans before he came. He took out a detailed list from his arms, handed it to the female swordsman, and then asked: "This is the purchase list. See what you can't buy."
?”
The female swordsman glanced at the list and said casually: "There should be all these standard weapons. Follow me to the warehouse..."
