After coming back from the canal area in the south of the city, they were about to arrive at the Moon Mansion. Tolia suddenly said: "Will you take me back to Snow Swan Castle?"
"Okay." Sun Ran just thought that she was going back to the palace to deal with political affairs, so he took her to the castle.
When they arrived at the castle, Tolia said again: "I don't have much to do today, and you must be tired too. How about we go to the Zenith Garden to have a rest?"
"Well, okay." Sun Ran was indeed a little tired, so he landed directly on the rooftop of the castle.
When they got here, Tolia took him for a walk in the garden. After walking for a while, she persuaded him: "Why don't you go back to the mansion and just rest in the palace?"
Sun Ran hesitated, resting in the castle of a single queen who was not yet married before deciding on a formal name. It would easily attract criticism, so he considered it: "How about a few more days?"
"Don't worry, no one will talk too much. You were already the master of this castle last night, weren't you?" Tolia winked at Sun Ran and smiled sweetly.
So Sun Ran had to let his face turn slightly red, and said nervously: "Then... okay, you are right."
Tolia was very satisfied, and after resting for a while, she said: "I know you like to study all kinds of magic, so I have prepared a well-equipped alchemy room for you in the castle. Do you want to take a look?"
An excellent alchemy room? Sun Ran's eyes lit up. With it, he could legitimately produce some powerful alchemy products without arousing anyone's suspicion. And with the financial resources of the royal family, he did not need to worry about alchemy at all.
Material issues.
"Of course I do. Tolia...oh no, Liya, you are so kind to me." Sun Ran said sincerely.
Although he was acting, he had a lot of heart. Faced with this Asaph goddess who cared about him wholeheartedly, Sun Ran felt that he really had feelings in his heart.
However, as the great road evolves, there are emotions and ruthlessness, and let nature take its course. Sun Ran does not feel panic, because he can perfectly control his emotions, but if it is not possible, he can also divide his soul and kick out this part of his emotions.
As for now, let's just regard these natural emotions as an adjustment to life.
"Let's go, I'll take you there." Tolia smiled and took Sun Ran down to the Zenith Garden.
After walking along the long corridor in the palace for more than ten minutes, Tolia brought Sun Ran to a room, stopped in front of the door, and then said with a smile: "I hope you will be satisfied."
Then she ordered the guards to open the door and the two of them walked in.
This is a spacious hall, covering nearly a thousand square meters. What you can see are rows of material shelves made of ebony wood with extremely high magic resistance. Half of the shelves are already filled with alchemy materials.
Sun Ran took a rough look and saw extremely rare materials such as black python oil, magic rhinoceros horns, moonlight butterfly wings, sharp-toothed fish's pupil liquid, etc. It was roughly estimated that the total value of these materials was at least one hundred thousand gold coins.
.
As far as Sun Ran knew, the royal family's annual income was only about 200,000 gold coins. Such an alchemy room only spent half of the materials. This queen was really generous.
There are many shelves in the back, but they are empty. Tolia explained: "I am in a hurry, so I can only collect these materials for the time being."
"It's already very good." Sun Ran smiled with satisfaction.
Tolia pointed to the young people coming and going in the hall. They peeked over from time to time and said: "These dozen people are outstanding students in the Royal Academy of Magic. They all have the level of two-star magicians and have gone through strict selection. I hope
They can be your great helpers."
Magic apprentices help powerful magicians complete some basic trivial tasks, and powerful magicians repay the apprentices. Let them gain some practical magic experience, which is a win-win situation.
Of course Sun Ran had no objection: "It would be better if these people help."
"The alchemy equipment over there was bought by me from Sky City. They are all the best and should be enough." Tolia said.
This was what Tolia originally did. Sun Ran agreed that day, and she was ready to let Sun Ran settle down in Wan Palace. A magician and an excellent alchemy room were indispensable, so she was preparing this alchemy in advance.
Frigga came and took over the alchemy room. At the same time, she arranged the alchemy room more perfectly.
Sun Ran walked into the alchemy room and touched various magic materials. He immediately put Tolia aside and was immersed in it.
Tolia smiled slightly and quietly left the alchemy room without urging or interrupting others to deal with the political affairs of the kingdom.
When she put on her formal clothes and arrived at the meeting hall, Kingdom Knight Luo Lin was already waiting there.
"How's it going?" Tolia asked.
Luo Lin still had a trace of evil spirit on his face, half-kneeling in the tunnel and said: "The matter has been revealed. The man in black robe is called Boslin, a priest of the Dark Church. From his mouth, I asked some code words and corresponding notes.
"
"Oh, what's the plan?" Tolia was interested.
"The Black Hand organization is most likely carrying out an assassination plan, and the target of the assassination may be Mr. Russell." Luo Lin said.
Tolia frowned, this was really bad news, and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Knight Luo Lin shook his head: "No, his body is too weak and he only lasted less than half an hour."
"I understand. Please step back and intensify patrols in the capital these days." Tolia ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Tolia was left alone in the meeting hall. She covered her head and pondered, thinking about how to protect Russell from being harmed.
After thinking for a long time, she already had a rough plan in mind, so she called the commander of the guards and began to carefully arrange the defense of the palace.
After that, Tolia went to the alchemy room again.
Russell himself has great power. If he tells him this news, he will be more vigilant, and the difficulty of the Dark Assassin's assassination will increase exponentially.
When he arrived at the alchemy room, Russell was still busy. Next to him, there was a circle of magic apprentices, both male and female, who were all studying seriously and curiously. In particular, there was a girl with delicate features who was the most studious and asked questions from time to time.
Russell was very patient, multi-tasked and did not delay things at all.
He saw Tolia from the corner of his eye, turned around and smiled: "Liya, I think I have fallen in love with this place. There are young people everywhere with active ideas that are not bound by stereotypes. It has given me a lot.
inspiration."
Tolia smiled: "I thought you would find them annoying. This is for the best."
When the Queen arrived, the magic apprentices stepped aside. Tolia took the opportunity to step forward and whispered: "Russell, I want to tell you something..."
"What?" Sun Ran turned around and asked.
Tolia walked over with a smile on her face and whispered in her ear, like a whisper between lovers.
Sun Ran understood what Tolia meant. He probably had something secret to tell him, so he also had a smile on his face and listened quietly. After listening, he kissed Tolia lightly on the cheek.
He stood up and said, "I know, dear."
Tolia smiled and said again: "I feel relieved to see that you are satisfied with this place. I'll leave first. Remember not to be too late. I'm still waiting for you."
"Yes."
So the Queen waved her hand, turned and left. The surrounding magic apprentices waited for her to leave, and once again surrounded Sun Ran, continuing to listen to him explain the principles of magic. (To be continued...)
