Chapter 3063 Knight Sword
While waiting for the Black Earl to come back, Dox never stopped talking, still trying to persuade Angel to let him take a look at the mysterious mirror.
However, Angel still didn't agree.
It's not that Angel didn't want to show Dox, it's just because... Laplace hasn't logged off from the Dream Wilderness.
Laplace seems to be addicted to fishing. It's been almost a day, and she has no intention of logging off. And the place where she logged on was in the space inside the Unbroken Heart Mirror.
Although Dox may not be able to find Laplace, what if?
Moreover, if Dox really found the space inside the mirror and saw the sleeping Laplace... From a etiquette point of view, this is an extremely impolite behavior.
So no matter what, Angel can't take out the Unbroken Heart Mirror now.
However, although he can't show it to Dox, there is no problem in talking to Dox about the effect of the Unbroken Heart Mirror.
Of course, the effect here is limited to the effect of the Unbroken Heart Mirror in the material world.
That is, solidity.
Unfortunately, Angel told the truth, but Dox didn't believe it. He didn't think that an alchemical tool with a mysterious aura could only be strong.
Dox firmly believed that Angel was deceiving him.
Angel didn't explain, anyway, he had told the truth about the effect of the Unbreakable Heart Mirror in the material world. As for the effect of the Unbreakable Heart Mirror in the mirror realm... can this be said?
Time passed slowly as they chatted.
During this process, they also talked about Axe and others, but there was no significant progress. Even if each of them had some guesses, guesses were not counted, and they could only wait until the "authority" arrived, perhaps to get confirmation.
At dawn, the Black Earl, who represented the "authority", finally came to the inn.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to Wai, there was also a white-haired and green-eyed boy who came with the Black Earl. He was the person in charge of the Starry 13th Block and the owner of Lucia Workshop: Lucia.
Angel was also a little surprised when he saw Lucia.
He originally thought that since such a big thing happened in Biren Tree Courtyard and the attackers came from the Starry Street District, Lucia might not be able to come back in a short time, given the nature of the Bilos family.
Unexpectedly, Lucia was released in less than half a day.
Was it that the Bilos family suddenly became generous and let her off? Or did the big boss behind the Starry Glory predict the situation here and attack the Bilos family in advance?
Perhaps Lucia saw the curiosity in Angel's eyes. He scratched his temples and said, "It was Lord Black Earl who pleaded for me... Otherwise, I would probably still be in the interrogation room of the Bilos family."
Angel turned his head to look at the Black Earl. He was a little unconvinced. The Black Earl was so kind?
The Black Earl did not speak, but said to Angel alone in the mind band: "The tree elders know very well that this matter has nothing to do with Lucia. After asking the reason, they should have let her go."
The reason why they did not let her go was purely to find an external outlet for their own internal mistakes. And Lucia became the recognized "criminal" erected within the Bilos family.
Angel: "So, Lord Black Earl helped him?"
The Black Earl: "It's not really helping him, it's just pointing out the self-righteous fig leaf of the Bilos family. And I also have something to talk to the preacher about."
Now, Angel understood.
The point is not to help Lucia, but that the Black Earl wants to talk to the backer of the Didia family, that is, the behind-the-scenes boss of the Starry Glory, the "Preacher of Starlight".
And helping Lucia is just a starting move.
Although it sounds a bit like a profitless move, it must be said that if the Black Earl hadn't exposed the fig leaf of the Bilos family, Lucia's fate would probably not be too good... She would definitely not die, but she would definitely be dragged out to take the blame.
So in general, this is definitely a good thing for Lucia; and for the preacher, it may not be a big bad thing.
At least, the preacher can use this to get in touch with the Black Earl.
The Black Earl is looking for her, nothing more than a prophecy. As long as it is not too exaggerated, the preacher should agree...
After thinking about this, Angel no longer hesitated, but looked at Lucia: "Since you are back now, we can exchange alchemy experiences when we have time."
The exchange of alchemy experiences was not proposed by Angel at the beginning, but by Lucia... No, it was proposed by Lucia.
Angel also agreed at the time.
The reason why I said it again now is not to say how eager Angel is to exchange alchemy experience, but to tell Lucia tactfully: We will talk again when we have time, you should leave now.
In Angel's view, Lucia came to his quiet room just to lead the way for the Black Earl. Now that the Black Earl has arrived, you should leave.
Lucia also heard what Angel meant, but he did not leave immediately, but looked at the Black Earl.
The Black Earl also explained in time: "I brought him here to make the final confirmation."
"Make the final confirmation?" Angel glanced at the Black Earl, and then looked at Lucia who nodded repeatedly.
Although he didn't know what it meant, since the Black Earl said so, Angel naturally couldn't continue to order him to leave, but motioned Lucia to sit down.
After Lucia sat on the sofa nearby, the Black Earl turned around and said, "Now, can you bring it?"
What to bring? Angel and Dox were both confused. Wai seemed to know something, but as an apprentice, he couldn't speak at this time.
Lucia was silent for a moment, then said, "I can take it out... but as I mentioned to you before, I am disrespecting the privacy of my guests by doing so. In order to save the situation to the greatest extent, I need to make sure that you will not do anything to harm my guests."
The Black Earl said indifferently, "Do you still consider them as your guests? Even though they almost made you take the blame."
Lucia: "Since they have the membership card of the Starry Street District, they are my guests. The purpose of the Starry Street District is to not care about the guests' whereabouts; no matter who they are, even if they are public enemies or spies from other worlds, as long as they do not violate the rules of the Starry Street District, they are my guests."
"As for taking the blame... it is not them who made me take the blame, but the Bilos family. I can still clarify this."
Hearing the conversation between the Black Earl and Lucia, Angel could roughly guess that the "guests" mentioned by Lucia should refer to Stoop, Axe and the witch Sharon.
Judging from the actions of Stopp and others, although they caused great losses to the Biren Tree Courtyard and embarrassed the Bilos family, they did not break the rules of the Starry Street District.
So, from Lucia's point of view, they should indeed be considered "guests".
However, whether Lucia really doesn't blame them is unknown.
Moreover, from the conversation between Lucia and the Black Earl, it can be known that Lucia seems to be taking out something and handing it over to the Black Earl this time. This thing is most likely related to Stopp and others.
Although Lucia may have taken out the things under the threat of the Black Earl; but since he is willing to take it out, it means that he still has some resentment in his heart, not as hard as he says.
Black Earl: "I'm too lazy to listen to the high-sounding words... Take it out, I won't do anything to hurt them, and you can also watch the whole process from the side."
Lucia was silent for a moment, opened her exile space, and then released the magic hand to get in.
Although Lucia's exile space only revealed a little halo when it was opened; but everyone still saw a little bit of the scene inside... It was filled with various shelves, and different items were neatly placed on the shelves, which were numerous but not messy at all.
It seemed that Lucia used the exile space as a storage space.
This surprised everyone a little.
Although every wizard has his own exile space, the existence of the exile space is not eternal. It requires "exile magic" to open the exile space. And maintaining the exile space is equivalent to maintaining the exile magic from collapsing.
It's okay to maintain the exile space for a short time, but it's a bit laborious for a long time.
Therefore, most wizards will treat the exile space as a garbage disposal site, and only in very rare cases will they use it as a storage space.
Lucia seems to be one of the very few.
No one asked Lucia the reason. After all, this is personal privacy, and maybe Lucia has some special way to maintain the exile space.
Lucia's magic hand groped in the exile space for a long time before reaching back.
The magic hand brought back two items, a very new parchment and a slender knight's sword.
"These are the two." Lucia placed the things on the table and gestured to the Black Earl.
Because they were placed on the table, everyone could see them. However, to the naked eye, there was nothing wrong with these two items.
Dox: "Can I sense it?"
Lucia nodded: "Yes."
After getting the confirmed answer, Dox immediately extended his mental tentacles and observed the two items from the energy perspective.
After a while, Dox whispered: "This parchment seems to have a faint contract power, but it is very weak. If you don't sense it carefully, you can't even detect it."
"This knight's sword is very ordinary, there is no extraordinary fluctuation, but the material seems to be okay."
As soon as Dox finished speaking, Angel added: "The main material of the knight's sword is blood steel, mixed with a small amount of star iron."
Blood steel is considered the top steel in the mundane world, but in the extraordinary world, it is only used by apprentices for training. Star iron is a supernatural material, but its value is very low, and the content in the knight's sword is relatively small, so it is generally average.
But in the mortal world, this knight's sword is definitely a divine weapon that can cut iron like mud.
"Wizard Jon is right, this is indeed a sword made of blood steel mixed with star iron." Lucia nodded at this time and smiled kindly at Angel.
Wizard Jon? The Black Earl glanced at Angel and did not comment; Dox also looked calm, because he knew that Angel named himself Jon.
The Black Earl looked at Lucia: "These two things...please give a brief introduction first."
Lucia nodded: "This parchment, the Red Sword Wizard sensed it correctly, and there is indeed a contract power on it."
Dox: "But the power is very low."
Lucia: "Yes, the power is indeed very low. It's because I drafted this contract, and I didn't think about how much binding force it should have. After all, this contract is just an order."
"Order?" Everyone looked at Lucia in confusion.
Lucia: "Yes, it's the order. This is the reservation order signed by Witch Sharon when she ordered a batch of fragrances in my Lucia workshop."
"It's just a very ordinary business contract, so there is no need to sign a very important contract power."
After speaking, Lucia turned to look at the Black Earl: "This reservation order is something related to Witch Sharon, and I only have this one here."
The Black Earl nodded: "Okay."
After talking about the parchment, Lucia looked at the knight sword on the table again: "This sword is actually a teaching sword. It is a teaching sword used when teaching sword-related combat skills."
"This sword was originally placed in the warehouse, but some time ago, Mr. Axe took on a lot of teaching tasks, among which this teaching sword was used."
At this point, Lucia stopped again and looked at the Black Earl.
Although Lucia did not speak this time, everyone probably understood what he meant.
The Black Earl should have asked Lucia to take out the objects related to the attacker... Perhaps, the Black Earl has a way to find some information from it.
The reservation order is related to Witch Sharon, and the teaching sword is related to Ex.
Now there is only one item related to Stopp.
"I only have these two things. Stopp... He is very cautious. Very few things flow out of his hands. I don't have them here." Lucia spread her hands and shrugged, looking helpless.
The Black Earl nodded and did not force it.
His main goal this time was still on Ex. It was enough to have Ex's items here.
As for the reservation order of Witch Sharon, it was at most a bonus.
Moreover, the reason why the Black Earl wanted these things was because he was going to smell some key clues from the "related items".
The order signed by Witch Sharon had at most some pheromones left, which might be useful to the prophecy wizard; letting him smell it might not find any useful information.
However, this teaching sword was very useful. Ex used it to teach his apprentices, that is, he once held this sword for a battle demonstration.
Maybe we can get a glimpse of some of the sources of Axe's abilities from this.
Although the Black Earl has roughly guessed Axe's category, he still needs a strong proof, and this teaching sword may be the key clue he is looking for!
