The appearance of the Duke of Hell confirmed many of Quince's previous speculations, but also confirmed the fact that there was a legendary powerhouse eyeing the Saint Dresden.
Quins rubbed his forehead sadly. Although he had a certain expectation in his heart, after it was actually confirmed, he still felt bitter in his heart. The Church of Ten Thousand Snakes had already made him unable to take care of it. In addition, the Duke of Hell mentioned that
Ge, Quins is really scratching his head as to how this turmoil will end.
Put down your worries, now is the time to attend the appreciation party, not the time to think about these things.
"Baron Dodd, so you are here. Mr. Walker is looking for you everywhere. Please come to the front hall." The butler Quines had seen before appeared in the side hall and said politely.
Quins' eyes flickered. The butler couldn't find him. It should be the action of the Duke of Hell before. Quins nodded and followed the butler's lead to the hall.
At this time, many people had come to the hall, and Quins even saw a few history professors and students who had met at Levamin University.
There were only three people who were dressed like nobility. He did not expect that in St. Dresden, there would be someone like old Earl Walker who would delve into history. After all, with old Earl Walker's proud temperament, he would not
Go and invite those nobles who don’t live up to their name.
But what really surprised Quins was that old Earl Walker really invited a commoner. Although several professors and students from Levaming University may also be civilians, after all, the identity of Levaming University is there, no matter what they wear.
You can see the conversation at a glance.
As for the commoner that Quins considers, one can immediately feel the difference in spirit between him and the aristocrats or college students at first sight. In this regard, as a former assassin, Quins is still
You can't go wrong.
Sure enough, Quins walked up to Old Earl Walker and asked, and got a positive answer.
"This kid is very obsessed with archeology, especially the history of the Quaternary and Fifth Epochs. For this reason, he begged me to find him a job as the administrator of the Gronnu Library." Old Earl Walker sighed.
road.
"You agreed?" Librarian, this is standard for the protagonist.
"Of course, it's just a job as a librarian." Old Earl Walker waved his hand.
The job of a librarian was really easy for Old Earl Walker. He didn't even need to step in, his assistant could take care of it.
The reason why Quince pays special attention to this librarian is because this person's temperament, that independent temperament, inexplicably reminds him of a person he has not seen for a long time, Fanny Cecil, the magician of fate.
.
"What's his name?" Quins asked curiously.
"Ryan Salom, a great young man." Old Earl Walker's eyes were full of support.
Quietly activating the Eye of the Void, an indescribable aura suddenly hovered over Ryan Salom's head and disappeared into the void. Quins secretly thought that this aura was related to Fanny Cecil and his fate.
The scent on the mirror is similar, but different.
"Ryan Salom, that's a very good name." Quins replied, but he was very concerned about Ryan Salom.
As if sensing Quins' gaze, Ryan Salom, who had been huddled in a corner looking at an ancient statue, suddenly turned his head and met Quins' gaze.
His cheeks turned red, and after nodding quickly, he immediately avoided Quins' gaze.
Seeing this, Old Earl Walker smiled and said: "Don't bully him, he is a very shy little guy."
"I can see that." Quins nodded with a smile.
Then, Old Earl Walker took Quins to get to know the attendees one by one. Three of the nobles were all nobles of the neutral faction, which expanded his many connections.
To be honest, the appreciation meeting had little to say about Quines. Everyone was talking loudly, and when everyone had their own opinions on some trivial matter in history, Quines could only be a bystander, watching quietly, and occasionally making some remarks about the history he knew.
The dark history in the film was not underestimated by everyone. However, Ryan Salom, whom Quins was paying attention to, changed his usual shyness at this time and argued hard about various histories, antiquities, etc., even several times
Everyone's face turned red.
The appreciation meeting was not about to end until midnight, and everyone left the Earl's Mansion reluctantly as if they were still unsatisfied.
The carriage walked slowly on the deserted street. The steam railcars on the street had long been out of service. Quins specifically asked the coachman to drive slower. The cold wind blew into the carriage, and Quins' thoughts became particularly clear.
Today, the Duke of Hell, Tigue, actually appeared here. He was even able to put aside his previous grudges and wanted to find a helper to plan for that ray of chaotic divinity. Obviously, this ray of core divinity of the mother of all snakes, for someone like the Duke of Hell,
For the devil, it was a huge temptation, so much so that even the Duke of Hell temporarily put aside his plans for the pages of truth.
From a practical point of view, for mid- to low-level transcendental beings, Chaos Divinity is not as valuable as the pages of truth. Or, to be more precise, for mid- to low-priced transcendental beings, even if they obtain Chaos Divinity, it will take a long, long time.
In terms of utilization, it is precisely because of this that this is the way to cause disaster.
On the other hand, looking at people like the Duke of Hell, divinity is obviously more attractive than the esoteric truth, because it is the path to the gods.
Quins, who was bowing his head in thought, suddenly felt a breeze blowing through the carriage. On the seat opposite him, a shadowy silhouette loomed in front of Quins.
Quins raised his head and said without any surprise: "Here he comes."
After the silhouette was silent for a moment, he said, "Why do you want to meet so urgently?"
Quince smiled slightly: "Based on the information you got from the mysterious defense agency, you shouldn't be able to guess what information I want."
"Hey, you guys, it's true that a semi-artifact can make you feel like a formidable enemy." The silhouette said with a hint of disdain.
Quins: "Now that you know it, tell me, where is the Quetzalcoatl statue placed now?"
"Oh, you think so highly of me. It's a semi-sacred weapon. How could I possibly know where it is stored?"
"Oh? I heard your tone before, I was very disdainful. Why, now you don't know? It turns out you are not a legend." Quins chuckled.
"Sooner or later it will be," the silhouette snorted: "But recently there have been many people inquiring about the Quetzalcoatl statue. The little actions of a few people in the agency are so obvious. I really don't know who taught them the undercover training.
It’s so miserable.”
"Hey, I didn't call you here to show off your abilities. I need you to give me exact information."
"You really want to get the Quetzalcoatl statue." Silhouette said with a slight surprise: "Humph, I'm here to find out for those witches, I didn't realize you were so affectionate."
