The Elf Godcrafter, that thing is almost equivalent to the earl-level nobles in the empire! They are real nobles, not court nobles!
Mozo nodded seriously and said:
"Yes, he is an elven master craftsman, and he is from the Daedalus family, which ranks very high among the many master craftsman families."
Chapter 25: As Smart as I Am
Hearing Mozo's affirmative answer, the man called the captain looked at Mozo suspiciously, then sat back and folded his arms and said:
"Are you sure? I don't mean to look down on you, but why do you know this? I've read your file. You grew up in a special zone, so you shouldn't know these things."
Mozo understood and said:
"I understand your concerns, but as a superhuman who oversees superhumans, you can't possibly not have a way to distinguish the real from the fake, right?"
The captain stared at Mozo for a long time before speaking to the man with glasses:
"Go to the secret vault and get that thing."
At the same time, the captain handed a medal to the man with glasses, which seemed to be some kind of token of proof.
The man with glasses immediately took the medal and left, but soon after he left, there was a knock on the closed door.
The captain frowned slightly, thinking, shouldn't it be so fast
Without waiting for the captain to think more, the person outside the door seemed to feel that he had fulfilled his courtesy, so he directly opened the door that should have been locked.
Then, a knight came into Mozo's sight. A female knight. She had long silver-white hair, which she casually tied into a high ponytail. Her face was also quite delicate, although not as overly beautiful as Audrey and Miss Windsor.
But she is also an absolute top-notch beauty. At the same time, her eyebrows are quite similar to Miss Windsor, or even similar in spirit.
Besides that, the most eye-catching thing should be her gorgeous armor that looks like a work of art. To be honest, Mozo had seen this kind of armor before, apart from dream operas, most of them were in various games in his previous life.
Once the other party entered, he first glanced around to confirm that it was safe before moving aside and bowed slightly, saying:
"Miss, you can come in now."
Then Miss Catherine Windsor, who had changed into a light blue dress, came in. She first glanced around like a knight, but she was not checking for safety, but looking for Mozo. Because the layout of this room was a bit awkward, it was difficult to see everything at a glance.
After finding Mozo, Miss Windsor's eyes immediately lit up and she walked up to him quickly.
Seeing this, the captain held his forehead in distress. He knew that the initiative of today's questioning was basically in Mozo's hands.
He had clearly instructed to try to delay Miss Windsor, so how come they came so quickly
And Miss Windsor, why are you so concerned about a commoner
Could it be that the Earl also saw through the trick and gave him full authority to handle it
But fortunately, Mozo said that he would confess the most important part.
On the other side, Miss Windsor quickly approached Mozo, blushed, and stood still, lowered her head and said softly:
"Mr. Knight, don't worry, I'm here now, and you will definitely be treated fairly!"
As he said this, he waved his little fists very cutely.
In response, Mozo smiled in gratitude, and then thought to himself that he was a little confused.
This Miss Windsor seemed to have some other feelings towards him
But it shouldn't be a big problem. For an inexperienced noble lady who suddenly encounters such a thing, it is inevitable that she would be a little unbalanced. It is normal for her to mistake the suspension bridge effect and gratitude for love.
After a while, when she has returned to her previous luxurious life, she will probably understand that her feeling today was just a mistake.
But Miss Windsor's kindness was still very beneficial to Mozzo at the moment. This allowed him to face the official questioning more calmly.
Not long after, the man with glasses brought back a pocket watch. Mozo didn't recognize the thing, but it was probably a sealed item.
In fact, Mozo was not wrong, because Miss Windsor immediately said softly behind him:
"That is Sealed Artifact 2-1111, the Judgement Pocket Watch. It can tell whether someone's words are true or not. The cost of using it is very interesting. It requires the user to face the wall at 7 o'clock in the evening and tell a secret that they don't want others to know. Then, if someone tells a lie, it will make a harsh ringing sound."
Of course, it is better to say that it was Miss Knight who said it rather than Miss Windsor, because she whispered it to Miss Windsor first, and then Miss Windsor relayed it to Mozo.
Mozo nodded in understanding. A second-level sealed item. So this thing should be transformed from the extraordinary characteristics of a middle-sequence extraordinary person.
The only pity is that it is still a long time before seven o'clock in the evening, otherwise Mozo might have the opportunity to listen to the captain's secret in person.
Then, under the identification of the captain and the judge's pocket watch, Mozo recounted everything he had heard.
However, he made a little fuzzy processing, that is, the puppet. Mozo just said that at the critical moment, the puppet appeared and saved the elf craftsman in time.
But he didn't tell them that he had moved the puppet to the ground when he was in the underground hall. Fortunately, Mozo had moved the puppet to the ground before and it was very close to the scene.
Otherwise, relying on Mozo alone, he would probably just run away. Among all the Sequence Fives, Shadow Mage is almost the most powerful against lower Sequences.
What's more, Mozo has no combat effectiveness at all in the early stage.
Just as Mozo judged, he was not lying, but he omitted the key words, which did not cause the seal to move. At the same time, it also successfully made people think that the puppet was prepared by the elf master craftsman.
Mozo was quite experienced in dealing with Sealed Artifacts. After all, no matter which Dreamland Opera it was, he either acquired a large number of Sealed Artifacts or personally facilitated the creation of a large number of Sealed Artifacts.
It can be said that from the unattainable level 0 sealed objects to the barely useful level 4 sealed objects, a considerable number of them are closely related to him.
Finally, after all the previous attempts, Mozo said the last and most important sentence:
"After the crown was taken off, it lost its original color. It is estimated that the crown was completely ineffective at this moment. I think you should know what happened next. I met the two black-robed men who had returned and successfully protected Miss Windsor."
Mozo did not tell them that the crown was finally taken off his head. Although this statement may have other explanations, it still makes people suspect that he is related to the Sun King. So Mozo once again blurred his words.
It makes it sound like the Golden Army fell asleep after the crown was taken off the stone statue.
After saying this, Mozo looked at the captain without blushing or breathing heavily. The captain also glanced at the Convict's pocket watch, then nodded and said:
"I understand. Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Mozo!"
As he said that, he stood up and held out his hand to Mozo. Mozo also smiled and stood up and shook the other's hand.
At this time, the captain suddenly asked:
"That crown changed color after it was taken off the stone statue of the Sun King, right?"
"certainly!"
Yes, but it didn't become as pale as it is now, but changed from silver to gold.
Chapter 26: Miss Knight's Thanks
The captain took a serious look at Mozo, who had no flaws, and immediately shook his hand vigorously again and said:
"In that case, you can go back first. If there are any subsequent questions, we will come to you."
It should be over here, but Mozo said:
"According to Imperial law, I should have full ownership of all the spoils."
Hearing this, the captain was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly realized that the thing was already a law during the Cromwell period. After dispersing the House of Representatives, Archduke Cromwell made this law in order to motivate the army and the extraordinary people to fight and kill the enemy.
This law was established to motivate the soldiers. Although it has not been abolished to this day, it has not been mentioned or enforced since the fall of Cromwell.
He didn't expect to hear this again today.
The captain wanted to refuse, but he couldn't find a legal excuse, which made him have no way to stop the other party. At the same time, Miss Windsor was watching behind Mozo. In this way, he lost his confidence in power.
After hesitating for a while, the captain said:
"Those things, apart from anything else, I cannot give you the extraordinary characteristics of an elven master craftsman. Although your request is legal, you should understand that the elves will not allow their people to be treated like this."
"But I can't refuse your request. How about this? I'll give you appropriate compensation in gold pounds or some other form?"
Mozo nodded and said:
"Of course, but the core of the puppet must be given to me intact. For the rest, I will accept gold pounds, real estate, or shares."
Seeing that the other party understood, the captain nodded happily. He was really worried that this kid would cling to the two extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 5. The Shadow Mage was okay, but the Elf Godsmith was a problem.
The empire was strong, but it could not ignore the will of the elves. If nothing unexpected happened, the divine craftsman would return the corpse and his own extraordinary characteristics to the elves intact. So he definitely could not give the divine craftsman's extraordinary characteristics to Mozo.
Mozo knew this very well, and he also wanted to see Daedalus' body returned home. He made this request, firstly to fight for his own legitimate interests, and secondly to see how much the empire has changed since then.
After that, the captain escorted the three people out of the Overwatch Council. He also took the core of the puppet and put it in a backpack.
As for the rest of the compensation, because the amount was so huge, the captain could not give it out immediately, and could only give it slowly. After all, it was two copies of Sequence Five, which represented the limit of mortals.
This level of extraordinary characteristics is basically out of stock. As for the higher levels, it can only be said that those things will not appear on the market normally. They will only be the foundation of major forces.
Even though Mozo seemed to be dealing with it easily at the time, that was mainly because the two Sequence Fives were entangled together. Otherwise, even if there were ten more puppets, Mozo would still be defeated by the Shadow Mage.
Outside the Supervisory Council, two carriages had been waiting there early. Both carriages had family crests consisting of roses and triangles on them. It was obvious that these were the carriages of the Duke of Windsor's family.
Miss Windsor looked at Mozo reluctantly and said:
"Mr. Knight, a lot of things happened tonight. I have to go home first, so I can't accompany you anymore. But I promise, when I'm free, I will come to see you!"
Miss Windsor was about to continue speaking, but was interrupted by Miss Knight, who whispered in her ear:
"Miss, it's getting late. Please get in the carriage first."
Hearing this, Miss Windsor looked at Miss Knight with some pity, and aggrievedly pulled the other's armor-covered hand and shook it, saying:
"Sister Jasmine! Let me talk to Mr. Knight for a while!"
Miss Knight frowned and said seriously:
"Miss!"
Seeing this, Miss Windsor knew that there was no hope, so she could only reluctantly go to the carriage. At the same time, after Miss Windsor got on the carriage, Mozo saw that a barely perceptible silver light was emerging around the carriage.
It seems that this carriage is also an extraordinary item.
After Miss Windsor got on the bus, Miss Knight turned to look at Mozo and said expressionlessly:
"Mr. Mozo, I must tell you that the young lady will probably not meet you again in the future."
Anyone who is not blind can see Miss Windsor's undisguised good intentions. So the classic class issue in the novel appears. In order to directly cut off possible problems, Miss Knight gave this conclusion directly.
This was not a disdain from the superior to the inferior, but a protection for the two. It must also be an instruction from the Windsor Grand Council. What Miss Knight did was just to point out the facts in advance.
Mozo was slightly stunned, then smiled:
“That’s a good thing.”
Miss Knight did not answer immediately, but looked at Mozo carefully. After confirming that he really thought so, Miss Knight's serious face relaxed and smiled with relief:
"It seems that this is just a one-sided problem of the young lady. So."
At this point, the Knight lady knelt on one knee in front of Mozo, touched her chest and bowed her head and said:
"Then please accept my sincere apology and gratitude. Please forgive my unnecessary suspicion of you. At the same time, I am extremely grateful for saving the young lady's life. The Rose Family will never forget your kindness."
Mozo stood there without any hesitation and accepted the other party's apology and thanks.
After the knight stood up, she took out a revolver from her back and handed it to Mozo:
"You saved the young lady, and you made up for my mistake. This is my personal thanks, a pistol transformed with Sequence 5 extraordinary characteristics. From the thief who held me back."
"I don't know the details, but it seems to be a sealed item that is not on record in any of the major churches. But I have seen it, and it is a sealed item of the righteous divine path. It won't drive people crazy or be targeted by any evil creatures."
Hearing this, Mozo couldn't help but sigh in his heart that tonight was full of surprises.
He had suddenly gone from a poor boy to a millionaire! Not only had he established contact with the authorities, he also had a relationship with the Duke of Windsor, and now he even had an excellent seal.
This luck is really incredible!
But Miss Knight's next words left Mozo dumbfounded.
"As for the conditions of use, it should be that every time you fire a gun, you have to sacrifice 100 gold pounds or equivalent to it. Sacrifices can be made in advance, and it can be stored up to six times."
"Then, although the young lady probably won't be able to meet you, if you have any trouble in the future, you can contact me directly. I will help you in any way I can. You know the spirit world, right? Then this is a way to contact me through the spirit world."
As she spoke, Miss Knight handed Mozo a note.
Mozo himself forgot how he took over the message, because his mind was now filled with:
One hundred gold pounds for one shot? One shot can take me back to the time before liberation? ? ? What the hell is this gold-eating monster!!!
Chapter 27: The Spirit World, the Messenger, and the Eternal Witch
In the carriage prepared for him by Miss Knight, Mozo returned to his home in a daze, holding the revolver transformed from Sequence Five.
After returning home, Mozo finally came to his senses. Then he looked at the revolver with a serious face. Mozo was now thinking about a very serious question, that is, whether to sell this gold-swallowing gun.
