The old elf had heard of Sigrid from Jenkins, but had never seen her. Although Sigrid and Jenkins are both half-breed elves who have awakened the bloodline of the World Tree sacrifice, the old elf has no idea of contacting Sigrid at all.
Jenkins also asked why, and the old elf's answer at that time was as follows:
[No one will guide you to go further on the path of nature and life, so I need to act as a temporary guide. But she is a member of the Church of the God of Nature, and I think there must be a more suitable teacher in the Church of Nature than me. And I'm old, not as energetic as you young people, and guiding you alone is enough to give me a headache.]
In short, the old elf only saw Sigrid's photo from the news when Sigrid first met Queen Isabella. But the black-and-white photos of this era are not very accurate, so he didn't immediately connect the girl in front of him with another descendant of the priest.
"Jenkins sent me, hi, I'm Sigrid Capet. Jenkins was in some trouble and he said..."
"Capet... oh~ yes, I see, please come in."
He immediately opened the door and let Sigrid in. He wanted to go to the kitchen to prepare tea, but was stopped by Sigrid:
"Time is a little tight now, so I'll just talk about the purpose of my visit."
She was also sizing up the old elf. When accepting Jenkins' task, she already knew that she was going to meet a pure-blood elf. She also knew that the old elf refused to reveal herself to the Orthodox Church because she didn't want to get involved in troublesome things. identity of.
For people living in the material world of this era, pure-blood elves, like the legendary dragons and demons, live in stories and legends. No one can refuse to meet and talk with an elf, but after the meeting, Sigrid finds that the other party does not seem to be as elegant and charming as she imagined, and she is covered in fairy tale colors.
If you want to describe the first impression, the old man in front of him who has disguised his facial features is the same as an ordinary human old man. But it looks more energetic, as if it can live for a long time.
Of course, she glossed over her feelings about the elves pretty well, saying what Jenkins had arranged:
"Jenkins wants to know, do you still have [Elf's Arrow of Destruction] here?"
In the "Angelfall" event earlier this year, Jenkins used the elf's sword of destruction to sacrifice Mr. Hood's father, the descendant of the cursed Carmel family. Bow shooting with one injury and four injuries directly changed the outcome of the battle with the fallen angels.
The conditions for using this arrow are very strict. It was barely used when he defeated [Human Body Puzzle] in the previous era, but now in this era, he is not the only one who meets the conditions for using it.
The problem is, the church doesn't have this kind of arrows right now.
"The Arrow of Destruction? Oh, no, no, the last one is already the last one."
The arrow when the angel fell, in the eyes of people other than Jenkins and the old elf, must have been shot by a believer in lies or the little angel. Sigrid didn't know the truth, and Jenkins didn't tell her before coming. Hearing the word "last time" at this moment, it took only a turn of the mind to understand what the so-called "last time" was.
"So Jenkins..."
She blinked, and although the emotions in her heart were like a tsunami, she still decided to act as if she didn't know what to do.
"Why do you use the term 'the last one'? The meaning of the last one means that it was not just one. But I remember that when Jenkins used it last time, he only used one. What are the other arrows? Under what circumstances is it used?"
Sigrid said that everyone saw that a few months ago, although four angels were killed, it was actually a split arrow.
The old elf was immediately at a loss for words, hesitating and hawing, not knowing what to say.
"Jenkins knows I still have arrows here?"
It took me a long time to ask.
"No, he just asked me to try my luck. If you don't have one here, he intends to ask me to go to the altar under the old world tree to ask for help. Although it is used to make walking sticks for the descendants of elves, he Thought maybe arrows would do too (Chapter 1294)."
"Okay, don't bother."
The elf shook his head, with a frustrated expression:
"I heard from Jenkins that the steps to go to that place are very troublesome, so there is no need. Yes, I still have an arrow here. I bought two at the beginning, so I missed the ruins expedition organized by Kamel. Avoiding the disaster of killing yourself... As you may know, this kind of arrow is forbidden even among elves. Except for offering it to the great as a sacrifice, under normal circumstances, any elf who uses this kind of arrow without authorization is equivalent to using it in human society. The lieutenant dropped steam bombs at City Hall. I didn't want Jenkins to be banned from archery twice, so I tricked him into only one."
After finishing speaking, he turned and walked into the bedroom, opened the wardrobe door and entered his "greenhouse". After a while, he walked out holding a delicate wooden box:
"Since Jenkins specifically pointed out this kind of arrow, I think he must have encountered da trouble. Take it, you need to find a bow, ordinary bows cannot shoot this arrow. Last time my bow was already Destroyed, but I think the Orthodox Church can solve this problem. Oh, and also, the arrow of destruction cannot touch metal, so you must use a wooden bow."
"Okay, I'll take the arrow back immediately, thank you for your help, Jenkins will come to thank you later."
"You don't need to be so polite. If you have time, you can also come here. I think as a descendant of the elf priest, I can also teach you some knowledge."
Seeing Sigrid get up after checking the arrows in the box, the elf also got up to say goodbye. Unexpectedly, Sigrid asked another question:
"Sorry, is this really the last arrow?"
The elf paused and looked at her, his eyes blinked unnaturally:
"Yes, the last one."
In the absence of Jenkins, no one can tell whether this is the truth or a lie. But that doesn't matter, at least not today.
In the city hall, Jessica already felt that she couldn't hold on anymore. Although she had read Jenkins' speech, she hadn't studied with Jenkins like Dolores, and she had personally presided over the kingdom's financial reform.
After removing the content of Jenkins' speech, Jessica's understanding of the Tulip event, which was completely carried out by her, is actually quite low.
Fortunately, the time came to half past ten, and it was time for the next break. She walked off the stage, wiping the sweat from her brow, trying to join Britney and ask where Jenkins had gone. But as soon as she reached the first row, she saw Queen Isabella clutching her chest and being helped to leave from the side door of the lecture hall.
He hesitated for a moment, but followed. And as she disappeared outside the door, until the end of the break, no one saw Jessica appear again.
Queen Isabella returned before the end of the break. The reporters who participated in the speech noticed her physical discomfort just now, but all they got was a perfunctory reply of "it's a trivial matter, don't worry about it".
Only Jenkins and his cat have complete knowledge of Jenkins' speech. In addition, Jessica and Dolores only know part of each other.
Originally, Alexia should also know, but she has been busy with taking another step forward recently, so Jenkins didn't bother her.
Now that Jenkins and Jessica are gone, Dolores wants to get up and go on stage again. But Alexia held her shoulders and shook her head at her:
"Jenkins has been preparing for this for so long. Do you think he would not expect this to happen? Not to mention, before he left, he didn't arrange the next speech. This in itself shows that this guy has his own plan."
No one came to the stage for a long time. As the host of the city hall, Mr. Sax Ruto, the mayor, could only announce that the break would be extended by half an hour and promised that Jenkins would come back soon.
Now that Jenkins and Jessica are not here, he is in public, and it is not suitable for him to directly talk to people from the Church of the Sages to ask about the situation. Seeing that Her Royal Highness Princess of the Northern Kingdom is sitting still, she can only ask Queen Isabella:
"Your Majesty, now... do you know where the Viscount is going now?"
Mr. Luto, whose figure is very problematic, asked in embarrassment.
"He probably has important things to do. We can wait for a while. I think he will come back soon. But if he doesn't come back by twelve o'clock, today will only end regretfully."
He had no way to refute Queen Isabella, so he could only reluctantly nod his head. Sachs Ruto has already sided with Jenkins, but under the current circumstances, it is really difficult to continue to let…
The main door of the lecture hall was pushed open, and Jessica walked in with Fini and her friends.
Queen Isabella sat up straight, and the change in her pupils showed her inner surprise. Her eyes were on Jessica, in disbelief that she was here.
If Jessica, who was trapped in the mansion by her in the morning, had a chance to escape after she left the mansion, after all, no one in the mansion could stop Jenkins after she left.
But just now, she witnessed Jessica swear by her relationship with Jenkins, and she would definitely return to the lecture hall before 2 o'clock in the afternoon. The handle of the Grand Duke of Windsor, obtained many years ago, is the most powerful weapon in her hands against the Windsor family.
But now that Jessica appeared, it meant that she broke her vow after just ten minutes, which was absolutely impossible for Queen Isabella.
But in fact, it wasn't Jessica who walked in. Jessica was waiting in the upstairs room now. She wouldn't joke about marrying Jenkins, which had come so hard.
The one who walked through the door was Miss Windsor, the demigod queen Windsor of the world of possibilities. Miss J has already played a role once, and Miss J's body is still in the mansion, so of course she has to play at this time.
And it can only be played by her, leaving Jessica alone to manipulate the body made by Jenkins, and their alone activity time is only half an hour. Miss Windsor, who is the gifter, has a spirit, so it takes about ten minutes longer than Miss J, so she can only come.
