Inside the castle, the head maid of Mana walked out of the hall and pulled down the gorgeous tassels covered in drapery, blocking the sight of other servants from prying into the hall.
As soon as the head maid Mana walked out of the corridor, a servant leaned over and asked about the situation of the person.
They all heard about it, and the person who came called himself "Tavel Shannon". They may not know the female knight in golden armor, but they are not unfamiliar with the surname "Shannon".
In the entire Goldfinch Empire, the only people with the surname Shannon are the royal family.
Thinking back to the previous message, the Shannon royal family went to the province of Jamei in person. Could it be the woman inside
No matter how the people around her asked, Mana didn't say a word from beginning to end, she just kept everyone out of the hall and left the space for conversation to the people inside.
At this time, the atmosphere in the hall was somewhat subtle.
Angel was sitting on the sofa, and on the table in front of him was a knight's sword that was broken into several pieces. The knight's sword itself is very beautiful, inlaid with pearls and gems.
This is definitely a mortal magic weapon made by a master craftsman and a weapon master. Even if it is placed in the wizarding world, it can be used as a good collection.
Of course, everything presupposes that it is intact.
Unfortunately, not long ago, this knight's sword broke into several pieces. Its owner, Tavel Shannon, the Seventh Princess of the Empire, also looked at the Knight Sword with a pity and sighed softly.
Angel's eyes were also on the broken knight sword at this time, and his eyes were full of doubts.
Although this knight sword is a mortal thing, just an hour ago, the reason why Princess Shannon was able to step into Gru Town, which was surrounded by illusion, was also thanks to this sword.
The illusion outside Gru Town covers a large area. For Angel, if he casts a too advanced illusion, the energy of the battery life cannot be sustained, and the daily consumption is calculated by magic crystals. Therefore, what he arranged was only the most basic and simplest basic illusion.
It's easy to stop mortals, but as long as you encounter aggressive energy, you can easily break through the illusion. Even if Dulu uses his water-calling talent, it is possible to break through the illusion.
And the reason why Tavel Shannon was able to come in was precisely because a little fire element was attached to this knight's sword.
These micro-fire elements are usually introverted, but when Shannon entered the illusion, the illusion node stimulated the hidden micro-fire elements, which allowed her to step into the illusion smoothly, but at the same time, her knight sword was a mortal thing, Unable to hold the burst of the micro-fire element, it finally shattered into several pieces.
The reason why Angel kept staring at this sword was that he was very puzzled. Why was there a slight fire element attached to it
He used the Eye of Nalda to identify it, but he didn't find anything unusual.
Result: This is a broken sword.
No sign of the element at all.
Although the slight fire element may be consumed when entering the illusion, after passing the identification, there should be something tricky, but I didn't find it, and this is the reason for Angel's doubts.
The materials used are all non-advanced metal materials, which may be top-notch in the mortal continent, but as an alchemist, the materials used for this sword are not in Angel's eyes at all. Are these materials really qualified for the elements to attach to it
Angel couldn't figure it out.
While Angel was paying attention to the sword, Shannon was talking to Leon. From their conversation, Shannon clearly put herself in a low position. Even though she was a princess of a country and faced only a world-class viscount, she still did not use a superior tone, because she came here for something.
"Viscount Pat, my intention of coming here has been explained. I want to ask to see the wizard." Shannon took off his helmet, revealing a young girl's face, but her eyes were firm, matching the armor. Quite the feminine temperament.
Leon pondered and glanced at Angel from the corner of his eye, but found that his eyes were still lingering on the fragments of the knight's sword, and he did not give him a confirmation, so that he did not know how to answer Shannon's inquiry.
Leon could only respond with silence.
Seeing that there was no answer, Shannon showed pleading eyes: "The Goldfinch Empire is on the verge of collapse, and only the wizard can save us."
Leon still didn't respond. Although he didn't want to see Jamei's province fall and the Golden Sparrow fall, he didn't want Angel to take risks. As for what Shannon said about the wizard, Eureka... Don't think about it, that's absolutely impossible.
"The wizard's name is Angel, right? I met the wizard, just two months ago. He has saved my life, let me meet him, even if I come to express my gratitude. ?" Shannon said, picking up the soft white fur on the sofa: "This is given to me by the wizard, I just want to see him."
Leon glanced at the white fur with a strange expression.
Angel was right in front of her. If she had seen Angel, why would she keep begging with me
When Lyon couldn't help but want to ask Angel, Angel, who had been out of the situation, finally raised his head and looked at Shannon: "You came to me, just to ask me to help you deal with Hai Lan?"
Shannon was still talking to Leon, and when he heard Angel speak, he looked over with some doubts. She didn't know the identity of this young man, but seeing that he stayed in the hall, Viscount Pat didn't drive him away, and she didn't want to ask too much.
At this time, the other party suddenly spoke. Shannon had absolutely no idea where the other party's words came from
Seeing both Shannon and Leon looking at him suspiciously, Angel sighed. The air around him was like water lines, suddenly converging and dispersing. In an instant, he turned into the appearance of a middle-aged and decadent uncle.
When Angel met Shannon in Heiwu Province, he still used this face, and it was normal that the other party could not recognize him.
"It's you?! It's really you, Master Wizard!" When Shannon saw Angel's makeover, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately recognized the identity of the other party.
Angel glanced at Shannon's shriveled belly and the bust that the armor couldn't hide, and said lightly, "It's only a month or two after you give birth. Is it appropriate to run around like this?"
Shannon's cheeks flushed, "I gave birth to a son the day after the Lord put me in Maynooth. It's been two months, and my actions are not affected now."
After Shannon finished speaking, he was anxious to explain his intentions.
But without waiting for her to speak first, Angel said, "How did you find this place?"
At first, Angel rescued the pregnant Shannon in Heiwu Province. Later, he put Shannon in Maynuth, the largest city in Broken Gold Province, and left. When Angel used the illusion, Shannon was How to determine his identity, which made him a little curious
Shannon: "I didn't recognize the adults, but when I returned to the capital, I told my father about the adults. He told me that the Munn family had sent him a message about the Pat Manor in Gru Township. A gifted person came out. At that time, I heard that the adults were going to the province of Jammeh, so my father told me that you might be the gifted person from Pat Manor.”
"After I came here, I heard from refugees that Gru Town is haunted these days, and no one can enter. I thought to myself, it must be the work of adults."
It turned out to be a communication from the Munn family. Angel nodded in understanding. After all, when Moro took him away from the Old Land Continent, General Mengen witnessed it with his own eyes.
"If you come to me to help you deal with Hailan Kingdom, you can leave, I won't get involved." Angel said.
Shannon saw that Angel's attitude just now was relatively mild, and thought there was a drama, but who knew that Angel refused her in advance before she could ask for it in the next second.
Shannon looked anxious: "Sir, the Golden Sparrow Empire has reached its final moment of collapse. If you don't help, the province of Jamei will be destroyed, and all the coastal areas will fall. We will no longer be able to turn around."
"But what does that have to do with me? The history of a kingdom is always changing in wars. It doesn't matter to me who wins and who loses."
Shannon's eyes were already a little red: "My lord also saw it at the beginning, so many ordinary people died at the hands of Hai Lan. They are all innocent, and the persecution of war should not be borne by them."
"I know that adults may think that every war will kill people."
"But this time is different. If the Goldfinch Empire does not do well, the royal family rots, the worms take root within the empire, and the people are oppressed, then the Shannon royal family will flourish and decline. Viscount Te should understand that the royal family has always been generous to the people, and although there are conflicts within the nobles, they are not irreconcilable…”
Shannon's words made Leon nodded subconsciously.
In fact, Angel also knew that in the past, Old Pat often praised the style of Shannon's royal family, which was one of the reasons why Angel would let Shannon hitch a ride in Heiwu Province.
"This time, if we were defeated under fair conditions, then that's all. But this war is not fair at all. Every time Heilan Nation wins, it's because the other side has an extraordinary person to intervene, and we have no power at all. Resist." Shannon narrated with a sad face.
"Extraordinary? You mean wizard?" Leon asked in surprise.
Shannon nodded: "Viscount Pat, and the wizard, do you know how General Mun died?"
After Shannon threw the question, before waiting for an answer, he said the answer tremblingly: "He was not killed in battle according to rumors, but was killed at his home in Tan Hong Kong."
Tan Hong Kong is a military port on the North Oil Coast and is also the place where General Mengen was stationed.
"There are 17 people in the whole family, all of them were killed. The heart was gouged out, and the death was extremely tragic." Shannon paused: "These 17 people, including Eaton Mun who is currently in the old land continent. All direct descendants."
Shannon's remarks, although only a few words, it is not difficult to hear the cruelty and blood hidden inside.
"After this happened, the Mengen family in the capital was furious, and that's why they sent troops this time."
"Moreover, there are three master wizards behind the Mengen family, all of whom are directly related. If they come back, the death of General Mengen this time will make it difficult for my father to face them. Only by killing the murderer can we give the Mengen family a gift. An explanation... And as ordinary people, we can't kill each other at all, so I volunteered to find adults."
Angel has been paying attention to Shannon, and her words are not lying. Moreover, the three wizards behind the Munn family actually refer to Moro, Allen and Irene, and the royal family's statement is also reasonable.
but…
"Why are you sure that killing General Munn must be an extraordinary person?"
