Josh stopped the magic car in front of Hearthstone Tavern, but this action instantly aroused Sheier's vigilance.
"My mentor... is here?"
Sheil turned his head to look at the Hearthstone Tavern on the other side of the street.
Even if Mrs. Marina expanded the entire Hearthstone Tavern to the largest scale on the street, the facade of the tavern was still so "shabby".
Just the wooden signboard doesn't look like a reliable store.
"Hearthstone Tavern, have you heard of it?"
Joshua opened the car door and walked straight down from above, and came to the other side to help the king open the car door.
"Hearthstone Tavern?"
The moment Sheyle heard the word, there were some waves on the expression that had always been cold.
Joshua read an emotion called "expectation" in her eyes.
"I've seen people discuss it on the caster forums."
Sheier stepped out of the magic car. She wasn't the kind of little girl who would be kidnapped. As the king of a country, she couldn't be so timid.
Under the leadership of Joshua, Sheiel pushed open the door of Hearthstone Tavern and walked in. The first thing she felt was the scent of ale.
"Dwarf..."
Sheier's eyes looked around at this exaggerated tavern, and all he could see were spellcasters and dwarves sitting at a table in a Hearthstone battle.
Dwarves are an extremely rare race in the Land of Frost, but Nolan can see them everywhere, and they occupy more than half of the tavern.
"They're regulars here." Josh led Sheiel to another part of Hearthstone Tavern.
"Does the mentor also play Hearthstone here?"
Sheel looked among the dwarves who drank ale, laughed gallantly, or scolded others as "god-sucking dogs."
The first purpose of her coming to Nolan is to meet Qiao Xiu, and the second is to find Nolan's sage to discuss the issue of the Heresy Tribunal.
"If you came last month, you might be able to find the gray one there, and it should be there now."
Joshua pointed to another area of the Hearthstone Tavern, an area where no Hearthstone machines were played.
It was originally intended for guests who came to drink, but now it has been occupied by a group of spellcasters to play Go.
Sheier's eyes followed the direction that Qiao Xiu pointed, and sure enough, he found the mentor in gray, who had been absent for three years.
"tutor?"
When Sheier was about to step forward to show her identity, the moment she stepped into the area, she noticed the change in the surrounding atmosphere, as well as the sage sitting opposite the man in gray.
The purple one.
The expressions of the two sages were as if they were facing a great enemy. This extremely tense atmosphere was enough to make Sheier believe that there would be a big battle next.
But they just stared at a wooden board made of dense black and white stones on the table.
"What a terrible murderous aura." Sheila sighed softly.
"The Grey and Purple have recently become hooked on a game called Go, which has also become popular among a small group of spellcasters."
Joshua pointed to the other spellcasters sitting in this area, and there was almost a Go board on the table that was playing against the opponent.
"Go?"
Sheier glanced at the chessboard. Sheier could understand the rules of Hearthstone just by listening to the discussions of those in the caster forum, but she didn't understand what kind of game Go was at first glance. .
"I suggest you don't disturb them at this time, they'll be over before the afternoon."
Joshua walked over to a machine that was playing Hearthstone, one of the few idle machines that no one was playing.
"It's a rare visit to Nolan, why don't you relax? At present, only Nolan can play Hearthstone," said Joshua.
Relax…
Sheier's original purpose today was indeed to relax, but the head maid's leak made Sheier's nerves tense.
She understands that there are still many sharp issues in the Land of Frost that have not been resolved, and the most difficult one is the issue with the Inquisition of Heresy.
But since she raised the flag of rebellion from the fortress, she has been fighting at the forefront for almost half a year.
Time to relax, this is not the Land of Frost...
"certainly."
Sheier wanted to temporarily get rid of the various problems that the Land of Frost had placed on her, and stayed in Nolan for a while as an ordinary person.
"I've wanted to play this game for a long time."
"First of all, let's start with the group card. Although the entry is to draw cards, but... Today I will have a conscience."
Joshua didn't stare at Sheier's wallet, although the other party was a king, so he gave Sheier a spare card box.
Under the guidance of Joshua, the king with game talent formed a new deck according to his own ideas and started the duel with Joshua.
"Shay, are you thinking of going anywhere else after the game?" Joshua asked.
“Other places…”
Sheier's eyes were fixed on his hand cards and various card descriptions, but his thoughts were not on this.
"I want to go to Nolan's movie theater. It seems to be called..."
While Scheyer was thinking, a rope suddenly appeared on the table, and the front of the rope ignited a flame that kept spreading towards the button for the end of the round.
"what is this?"
As a beginner Sheil has yet to figure out what this rope means.
"You only have one and a half minutes of thinking time for one round. If the rope burns to the button at the end of the round, it will be forced to become my round."
"What... what?"
Hearing Qiao Xiu's words, Sheier, who had been speaking in a slow tone, instantly entered a state of tension.
"This one? No... This one should be used."
She has been chatting with Joshua and reading card descriptions this round, and now she is starting to pick cards and start operations in a bit of a hurry.
At the last moment when the rope was about to burn out, Sheier completed the operation of this round.
"Why didn't you tell me this rule sooner!"
When Sheier came back to his senses, he found that he had made a mistake in his operation, and asked Qiao Xiu angrily.
"Because you didn't ask."
Joshua held back his smile and drew a card. Taking advantage of Sheier's mistake, he solved her in one turn.
"Aren't you angry?" Qiao Xiu looked at the expressionless king.
"No, start the next round, this time I'm going to win."
Shearer returned to her old pace again, and urged Joshua to start a new round.
"Well, about the theater you just mentioned, it should be the White Thorns Theater." Joshua said.
"It's the White Thorns Theater, where I want to see The Shawshank Redemption."
Sheier's fighting spirit was completely aroused, and she no longer focused on the battle in front of her.
"Then when the gray-clothed man finishes playing Go, I'll send you there."
"And after I beat you."
Sheier added a condition, so that Joshua didn't know how to answer, so he could only nod his head.
The new king of the Kingdom of Frost is indeed impeccable in terms of game talent. After five consecutive battles, she has mastered the tricks of the game, and finally killed Joe with luck in the last game. build.
"This game is more fun than I thought."
A faint smile appeared on Sheier's face again, but her smile didn't last long before it settled there.
Because she saw the comrades in the fortress at the entrance of the Hearthstone Tavern.
The people that the head maid had told had already found this place, and Sheil couldn't understand why those comrades-in-arms who had fought with her against the Inquisition of Heresy would betray him.
No... They don't seem to be betrayed.
Sheier didn't see any vicious and impatient expressions on their faces, only panic and anxiety...
"What's wrong?" Joshua asked.
"My father's men... have found me," Scheyer said.
