Chapter 15 The princess is just playing house

The king looked carefully at the princess's new riding dress.

"It's so beautiful," he said, "and it's very convenient for movement."

"It is a riding skirt after all." Elizabeth said, "My tailor is very good. In addition, the head maid also gave me this, look!"

As she spoke, she pulled up the bell sleeves of her riding skirt, revealing the wristbands worn on her slender wrists.

As soon as he saw the wristband, Wang narrowed his eyes and looked at it carefully.

The dwarf exclaimed: "This wrist guard... If I read it correctly, it should be made of dwarf craftsmanship. Don't worry about its sturdiness. If used by a monk, this thing will become a very effective armor, because the monk likes to use his wrists."

Block."

The king interrupted the dwarf: "Your Highness, can you let me take a closer look at this bracer?"

Elizabeth nodded and started to take off the wristband. It turned out that she had obviously never worn this kind of wristband, and she struggled for a long time without taking it off.

The king stood up and stepped forward to help the princess take off the wristband. Then he threw the princess's fair and slender hand away, returned to the position holding the wristband, and studied it carefully.

Elizabeth looked at him with a complicated expression.

Mark suddenly asked: "Wang, are you going to cast a spell? Detect magic items or something?"

"No, today we are venturing into the sewers. How can we waste a spell slot? All I have memorized today are spells that can be used in encounters. But I have learned how to identify magic items."

Elizabeth asked in surprise: "Magic item? Is that a magic item?"

"Yes." Wang nodded affirmatively, "This is a defensive wristband. It can form a barrier around the wearer, so that the wearer will obtain the equivalent of a chainmail defense."

After saying that, Wang put on the wristband and stood up, and said to Mark next to him: "Punch me in the chest."

Mark: "But you called it. One, two! Damn it!"

The human soldier covered his fist and said, "It hurts me so much. It really feels like being hit on chain armor."

The drow pulled out his dagger and scratched the king's back, but the king's clothes were unscathed.

"Yes," the rogue nodded, "there is indeed a layer of defense between your clothes and me. Does this thing only provide protection for the upper body?"

"Yes." Wang took off the wristband and handed it to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth looked at the wristband: "Isn't this a very valuable magic item? Where did Mrs. Mellie get it? Why did she give it to me without saying a word?"

Wang put his hands on the table and crossed his fingers: "Yes. Does Mrs. Mei Li know that you are going to...'outing' today?"

"You mean our real plan? She knows. She has actually always known that there is such a portal in my closet, and she also knows that I am gathering my own strength."

Wang: "Then she helped you cover and secretly put on a pair of expensive magic bracers for you. This is very interesting. Marika, have you checked where Elizabeth lives?"

Marika raised her head proudly: "I check it every day, and I have followed all the servants, especially those who helped test the poison. I also check the antidote and related scrolls every day."

Wang nodded: "You have to be more careful in the future, maybe the head maid has heard something. Elizabeth, don't take off this bracelet at night. No, you can only take it off when Marika is around."

Elizabeth bit her lip and nodded.

Wang held his chin and thought for a few seconds, then asked:

"Just to be safe, have you seen your father this morning?"

"I've seen him, and the Duke looks pretty good. When I went to pay my respects, my brothers were also there. They seemed to be talking about something important to the court mage."

Wang: "Is it the incident from the Archaeological Society? Did the Archmage find it in your family's ancient books?"

Elizabeth suddenly showed a mysterious smile: "I knew this was important, so I let my magic pet stay in the room and hide under the carpet in the corner."

Mark was overjoyed: "Great, what did it hear?"

"No," Wang shook his head, "If Your Highness can cast third-level spells, then she can talk to the demon pet and get some information from the demon pet that can be understood by the demon pet's intelligence. But Her Highness can only cast second-level spells.

.It has one less ring than the third ring~Sorry, I sang it subconsciously.”

The ability to communicate with the demon pet will also increase as the caster's strength increases. For a caster who can cast the third ring, he can communicate with the demon through a "language" that only exists between himself and the demon pet.

Pet conversation.

A warlock who can only cast second-level spells can only share the emotions of his familiar at most.

Elizabeth raised her voice: "You are right, I cannot talk to my demon pet yet, but I feel the emotions of my demon pet. And my demon pet will observe the people present and convey their emotions to me through this!

"

Wang: "Then what did you feel?"

Elizabeth's face darkened: "Greed."

There was silence in the room.

King: "Whose greed?"

Elizabeth was stunned: "I... don't know. Anyway, they all fell silent when I entered, and they didn't discuss the original topic again until I left. When I opened the door, I heard one word, Nelenis.

"

Wang: "I have heard of this name. In the first era, someone tried to awaken five giant golems. They were colonial machines from other planes. When activated, they would destroy all creatures in our plane and then start breeding offspring.

"Nelenis was the mastermind of this conspiracy, but her ritual was destroyed, and the incomplete golems that activated them were also destroyed. Two of them were transformed into the starting point of the national border by the human empire Edolan in the second era.

At the entrance to the Morado Valley.”

The others looked at each other, and Mark asked in a joking tone: "Is it possible that your teacher happened to have participated in this adventure?"

"How is it possible? This happened in the First Age. In fact, related poems are still circulating in the river countries. If we have a bard, he may have learned related poems." Wang spread his hands.

Elizabeth: "The River Kingdoms are so far away from us. Why are they talking about this?"

Wang: "The most likely thing is that you heard it wrong. Or maybe you only heard half of it, the first half or the second half."

Elizabeth: "That's right...so..."

Wang: "It may also be an item left behind from the past, or a new item remade using the crushed golem as a material. In any case, such an item will have some power, which can also explain what your demon pet feels.

So greedy."

The dwarf excitedly smashed the oak cup on the table: "Power! Great! This is decent! The magic equipment left behind by ancient legends, this is something worthy of being an adventure target!"

"So we should find out what this thing is. Did the Archmage borrow any books from your house? If he borrowed it, it must be related to that book. Let's get it back and give it to the smart mage brother to interpret it.

one time!"

Elizabeth: "As far as I know, the Archmage just looked through the books in my library and copied some of them back."

Wang: "Then we need to know what he copied, and we also need to investigate all the books he read in the library. I think we can leave immediately for the Duke's library. Where is this place?"

Mark: "Right in Whitechapel - I mean, opposite Lancelot's temple."

"Wait a minute!" Elizabeth interrupted the wizard, "We are going to the sewers today, aren't we?"

"Oh, yes, sewer." Wang raised his eyebrows.

He glanced at Elizabeth, rarely hesitating.

Elizabeth asked timidly: "No... you are not going? I am familiar with the library, but... you see, I am wearing a riding skirt, which is very strange for going to the library. I am also wearing this magic wristband.

.so……"

Elizabeth's pitiful look made the king hesitate even more.

Dwarf: "Okay, heroes have been in love with beauties since ancient times. We can go to the library tomorrow."

Wang is still confused.

Catman: "You still want to improve your magic control skills, don't you? Mage?"

The king's expression changed instantly: "You are right. It is really helpful to have a deeper understanding of Her Royal Highness's desire to go on an outing. My magic control spells are always particularly ineffective on women. I hope this time I can make things better.

Improved.”

Elizabeth stood awkwardly on the spot, her face slightly red.

Marika clapped her hands, focused everyone's attention on herself and said: "We are going to the sewer. So get ready to go. After all, Elizabeth's head maid has given her such good equipment, so she has to make the equipment work.

"
