Chapter 885 Weird Topic

Perhaps Gawain's answer was too succinct, so that the two well-informed senior agents fell into a sluggishness within a few seconds, and Melita was the first to react. Asked uncertainly, "Did you mean 'don't go'?"

"Yes, don't go," Gawain said casually, "Is there any problem with my answer?"

"...It's just a little unexpected," Melita said in a strange tone. "Your reaction is so unreal that we didn't react for a while."

This answer made Gawain curious: "Oh? What should an ordinary person look like?"

"In the face of the invitation of the gods, ordinary people should either be ecstatic or be in awe. Of course, you may have a stronger spirit than ordinary people, and you will be calmer - but your level of calmness is still far beyond our expectations. ."

"It's because you told me - I can refuse," Gawain smiled and said lightly and indifferently, "Frankly, I am really curious about Tallond, but as the ruler of this country, I can I can't just go on a casual trip, the empire is on the right track, countless projects are waiting for me to choose, I still have a lot of things to do, and meeting a god is not in my plan. Please convey my apologies to your gods - at least for now, I can't accept her invitation."

What Gawain said was not an excuse—but it was only one of the reasons.

To be honest, this unexpected invitation really surprised him. He had imagined how he should advance his relationship with the Dragon Race, but he never imagined that one day he would advance in this way - Tallon There is actually a god in this world, and it sounds like that god has been stuck in the world for many years before this season of civilization. Gawain doesn’t know what purpose such a god would suddenly want to see. He is a "mortal", but he can be sure of one thing: he must be careful about everything related to God.

Judging from the reactions of Melita and Noretta, the relationship between the dragon family and their gods seems to be quite delicate, but the "Dragon God" is at least definitely not crazy.

A mad god is scary, but a sane god doesn't mean safety.

Does He know about rebellion against the plan? Does He know that Cecil has restarted the disobedience plan? Has he experienced the ancient age of gods? Does He know the God-killing fleet and the secrets behind it? Is he kind? Or is it malicious? All of these are unknowns, and Gawain... is not yet blindly confident enough to be fearless.

He did prevent two disasters at the level of divine disasters and defeated two "gods" directly or indirectly, but he knew very well how much luck and coincidence he had in the two disasters - even if he was this The "Satellite Spirit" seems to have the effect of suppressing and immune to the power of some gods.

But this does not mean that he really has the power to fight against the gods, at least not the power to stably fight against the gods. If you feel confident that you are a "God Killer" because of the achievement of challenging the disaster twice... then you should not be far from being buried again.

Therefore, with vigilance against the Dragon God, out of the most basic vigilance, plus he really cannot leave the empire casually and go to the distant Tallond for a "far journey", Gawain must not leave this time. Do not refuse the "invitation" of the dragon family.

After rejecting this invitation that was actually very tempting and seductive to him, Gao Wen couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, feeling that his thoughts were clear...

"You really are not an ordinary person," Melita gave Gawain a deep look, and after two seconds of silence, she lowered her head and said solemnly, "Then, we will bring your response to our gods. "

Then Noretta, who was on the side, said again: "In addition, I want to confirm - from what you said just now, you can't go to Tallond 'now', and you didn't completely reject this invitation, did you? "

Gawain looked at the other party, and after a few seconds of indifference, he nodded slightly: "If that 'god' is truly magnanimous enough to tolerate the willfulness of mortals, then I may accept his favor one day in the future. invite."

Noretta and Melita looked at each other, and the latter suddenly showed a wry smile and said softly, "...Our God is very tolerant a lot of the time."

Just as Gawain was about to ask what the other party meant by this sentence, Noretta suddenly took a half step forward and bowed to him: "Our mission has been completed, it's time to say goodbye and leave."

It seems that this is an unanswerable question.

Gawain understood this in his heart, so he did not ask any further questions. He nodded lightly and saw Noretta put away the large suitcase used to hold the "Guardian's Shield" again, and went this way again. Yili: "Thank you very much for your cooperation in our work. The answer you just gave is very important to us."

"Wait a minute," Gawain suddenly remembered something at this time, and said quickly before the other party left, "About the last signal..."

"It has nothing to do with Tallond," Melita shook her head. She seemed to want to say more, but after a brief hesitation, she shook her head. "We can't find its source either."

Gawain watched the two humanoid dragons quietly for a few seconds, and finally nodded slowly: "I see."

The two senior agents nodded, then left, their breath quickly disappeared, and in just a few minutes, Gawain lost his perception of them.

Gawain stood there for a while, and after the various thoughts in his heart gradually subsided, and the chaotic speculation and thoughts were no longer turbulent, he let out a breath, returned to his spacious desk, and put the heavy and simple guardian shield on his face. on the table.

Under the sunlight shining in from the window, the surface of this ancient shield glowed with a faint glow. The extra accessories added by the former pioneers and comrades on its surface were all rusted and broken. However, the metal plate that was the main body of the shield was Under the rusted covering gleamed as always.

Gao Wen recalled that the blacksmiths in the expedition army could not smelt this piece of metal even though they used various methods, and they couldn't even drill a few pieces of metal on the surface of the piece of metal for the purpose of being extremely scarce. The hole for the handle was installed, so the craftsmen had to resort to the most direct and crude method - using a large number of additional alloy castings to almost cover the whole piece of metal.

Now that centuries of wind and frost have passed, these traces that have poured the blood of countless people and carried the hopes of countless people have finally decayed to this extent.

Gawain rang the call bell at the table, and after a while, the sound of pattering footsteps sounded from the corridor, and Betty pushed the door and walked in: "Your Majesty, are you calling me?"

"Is Hetty there?"

Betty thought for a while, then nodded: "She's here, but she'll be going to the government office in a while!"

"Let her come to me first."

...

Outside Cecil City, next to a deserted suburban woods, the figures of Melita and Noretta appeared in the clearing accompanied by a gust of wind.

The two senior agents took a few steps forward and confirmed that there were no idlers around. Then Noretta released her hand, and the gorgeous metal box she had been carrying fell to the ground. Then she and Mei Li beside her. The tower glanced at each other, and the two seemed to have completed a silent exchange in a short moment. In the next second, they staggered forward two steps at the same time, and half-kneeled on the ground unable to support.

The tear-like pain came from the depths of the soul, and the strong body quickly appeared abnormal as if it was unbearable. Large areas of fiery lines suddenly appeared on Noretta's skin, and the faint dragon scales instantly appeared. It spread from the cheeks to the whole body, and an illusory shadow rose up behind Melita. The huge illusory dragon wings spread out to cover the sky, and a large number of shadows that did not belong to them and seemed to have self-awareness rushed to the front. It spread out from the two of them and rushed into the air as if trying to break free.

This terrifying process lasted for a full ten minutes, and the backlash from the soul level finally ceased. Noretta was panting, fine sweat dripping from her cheeks, and she finally managed to regain control of her body. He stood up and reached out to help Melita, who looked worse.

Melita looked up at her and just wanted to stand up hard, but then she swayed, and then spat out with a "wow".

Her internal organs were still spasming.

Seeing her friend in so much pain, Noretta had an unbearable expression on her face, so she took a half-step sideways and turned her face away.

After half a minute, this even more terrifying process finally calmed down, and Noretta turned her face back and looked at Melita up and down: "Are you okay?"

Melita: "...I don't want to talk right now."

Noretta looked at her friend with sympathy: "Will you still wear this stupid-looking veil in the future?"

Melita: "...(Tallond foul language, a lot)"

Shocked by her friend's aura, Noretta reluctantly took a half step back and raised her hands in surrender. Melita also took a breath. After she calmed down a little, she lowered her head and frowned. , opened his mouth and spit out a dazzling flame - the flaming dragon's breath instantly destroyed the indecent and elegant evidence left at the scene.

Then she looked up at Noretta, deeply regretting that she couldn't keep her mouth shut.

Noretta didn't seem to feel any real resentment coming from Melita. She just took a few deep breaths to further calm down and repair the damage she suffered. After a while, she said with lingering fear: "You often deal with that Gawain Cecil...Is it so dangerous to talk to him?"

"… almost every time he shows a 'want to talk' attitude," Melita said with a blank look, "you know how nervous I get when he says he has a problem. Is it? I even sketched the shape of my own tomb in my mind..."

"It's very scary, really." Noretta sighed with personal experience, and couldn't help but think of what happened at the Mithril Treasure Headquarters in Tal Lond not long ago-even Speaker Andal, who was present at the time, suffered A gaze from the gods, and that terrifying gaze... It seems that it was also caused by a signal brought back from Gawain Cecil.

"I suddenly have a premonition," the white dragon lady frowned, "if I continue to follow you around in this human empire, sooner or later, I will be 'said to die' by some inadvertent words from the pioneering hero. Really. It's hard to imagine that I would be bold enough to talk about gods with outsiders casually, and even take the initiative to approach taboo knowledge..."

"Put away your worries. After this time, you can go back to the rear support position." Melita glanced at her friend, and then her eyes moved and landed on the man who was thrown on the ground by her friend. , on the box made of various precious magic materials, "As for now, it's time for us to collect some rewards for this very risky mission..."

As she spoke, she came to the box and began to dismantle gems and crystals directly from the box with her fingers. It's a pity that this thing is too conspicuous to sell directly, otherwise the whole sale will definitely be worth more than taking it apart..."

White Dragon Noretta hesitated to come to his friend's side, with a trace of entanglement: "Is this really good? This box was originally intended to..."

"Hey, who knows if you don't tell me - I also sold that box last time. I tell you, being on duty outside is not the same as staying as a support staff in Tal Lund, the risky environment is tough and you can't rest well. Yes, if I don't want to find a way to find some subsidies, I can't live..."

The corners of Bailong Noretta's eyes trembled twice, and she wanted to scold loudly (subsequently omitted)... She came to Melita's side and began to join forces.

...

"Ancestor, are you looking for me?"

Hetty came to Gawain's study and asked curiously. The next second, her eyes were drawn to the conspicuous objects on the desk.

"Ancestor, this is..."

Heidi's eyes opened wider and wider, she pointed at the guardian shield placed on the table, and finally even her tone trembled a little——

As a member of the Cecil family, she will never admit it wrong. She has seen it countless times in the collection of books handed down by the family and in the portraits handed down by the elders. This guardian lost a century ago The shield was once thought to be the beginning of the family's shame, and even a heavy burden for each generation of Cecil's heirs. Generation after generation of Cecil's heirs have vowed to retrieve this treasure, but no one has ever succeeded, she dreamed. I never imagined that one day this shield would suddenly appear in front of me—on the desk of my ancestors.

"Ansu Kingdom Guardian's Shield," Gawain was satisfied with Heidi's surprised expression, he smiled and said lightly, "Today is a day worth celebrating, this shield has been found - the dragon family helped to find it. back."

"Dragon Race..." Heidi felt that she was finally recovering from the dizzy feeling, she took a breath, couldn't help but took two steps forward and carefully looked at the shield on the table, "It's really it ...is it really?"

"Of course, I can't admit my own mistakes," Gawain said with a smile, "Why do you look more excited than me?"

"Ancestor, I'm afraid you can't understand... This lost shield has extraordinary significance for us descendants," Heidi said excitedly, "The Cecil family's dust was started from the loss of this shield. , generations of descendants want to restore the glory of our ancestors, and Rebecca and I have sworn in front of your portrait to find this shield..."

"Cough," Gawain coughed twice, "Do you still have such a rule?"

Heidi quickly calmed down a little from her excitement, and also felt the strange atmosphere at this moment, she glanced at the ancestor who had walked from the portrait to reality, and bowed her head a little embarrassedly: "This... This is a very normal noble habit .We will ask you to witness before your portrait for many things, including important family decisions, vows of coming of age, major changes in the family..."

"Okay, you don't need to say it," Gawain felt that the topic was too weird, so he quickly interrupted Hetty, "I guess Grumman must have greeted me when he took the shield from my grave. Yes - he may have even knocked on the board of my coffin. While it's inappropriate for me to say that, it's all about fooling a dead person, so let's stop there."

Hetty: "...Yes, Ancestor."
