Chapter 1006 "Demon Shadow"

The chief unexpectedly did not meet her in the study.

When Lorgar followed Wendy into the living room on the first floor of the castle, he found that in addition to Roland Wimbledon, there was a somewhat strange woman in the hall.

She looked at the other person curiously, and the latter was also looking at her. However, what made the wolf girl feel a little uncomfortable was that there was a scrutiny in the woman's eyes, as if she wanted to see through her whole body.

"You're here," Roland still had that relaxed and gentle demeanor, "I'm looking for you because I have a new task I plan to give you. Let's sit down and talk."

"Yes." After staying in Neverwinter City for half a year, Luojia had basically figured out the great chief's lack of etiquette. He raised his tail and sat down directly opposite the woman, "but please allow me to report a piece of news first. Regarding the extreme south.”

"Oh?" The other person raised his eyebrows, "Say."

Luojia recounted what his father had heard, "Although I don't think the Iron Sand City clan poses much of a threat to Bishui Port, it's better to be more vigilant. It takes a lot of effort to reclaim a piece of land, but it's easy to destroy it, especially This is when all the main forces of the First Army return to Neverwinter City."

"So that's what happened," Roland said, stroking his chin. "In fact, the staff department had considered this when formulating the relocation plan. It has been almost a year now, so they should be ready."

Luojia thought thoughtfully, "They mean..."

"You are right," Roland replied with a smile. "Before the threat of the War of Divine Will is removed, the First Army cannot take care of every corner of the kingdom. Matters in the extreme south must be resolved by local forces. ." He paused, "Of course no matter what, I have to express my gratitude to your father. If he is willing to intervene, this matter will be handled more safely."

"Maybe I can write a letter to my father." The wolf girl replied subconsciously. It wasn't until the words came out of her mouth that she realized that she had inadvertently stood in the perspective of Neverwinter... or the great chief.

"Since this is a political negotiation, let me do it," Roland waved his hand, "Besides, I didn't come to you to discuss such a serious issue. Let me introduce you first. The lady next to me is called Mei. You may have heard of her. Her other title: Star of the West.”

"Star Flower...troupe?" Luojia was slightly startled. She didn't have much interest in drama. She even learned the name from Huiyin. She only knew that there were two actors who were very popular among Neverwinter people. This is how the Star Flower Troupe got its name.

But what does this have to do with her?

"You are the third princess of the Kuangyan Clan, right? As expected of a desert nation, you are indeed a little different from us." Mei finally put away her scrutinizing gaze, stood up and saluted her gracefully, "First meeting , Miss Luo Jia, please give me more advice for future cooperation."

cooperate? Luojia looked at the warchief with a blank look on his face. The other person was not a witch, and she did not have the acting ability like Huiyin. How could cooperation begin?

"That's right," Roland raised the corner of his mouth, "Do you remember what I said about wanting more people to accept witches with abilities similar to yours? The soul should not be related to appearance, no matter how different they are from ordinary people. Parts, scaly face, still essentially one of us. And drama is undoubtedly the quickest way to do that."

"You want me to act in a drama?" Luojia suddenly panicked. Although she was determined not to hide her ears and tail, the locals did not show any obvious rejection of her, but this was different from deliberately standing in the spotlight. It's completely two different things. "But I don't know anything about it, and it's not something I'm good at. Besides, I didn't feel any obvious malice in Neverwinter City. Maybe you should find someone else..."

"Don't worry," Roland seemed to know what she was thinking, "You don't have to perform in front of everyone, and the viewers are not Neverwinter people - this is an unprecedented attempt, I call it electricity... No, " Phantom". "

"Shadow?" the wolf girl repeated.

The great chief picked up a strange crystal on the table and shook it at her. Only then did she notice that it was no ordinary decoration. The silver-white prism was inlaid with three bright gems, and there were several faint blue stripes engraved around it. When it shook, she could even see cold light flowing in the stripes.

"This thing is called the Time Symbol. Like the Divine Will Symbol, it is a technology left over from the Taqira era. It can achieve a variety of magical effects through the combination of different magic stones." He explained, "But The function of time is not to change time, but to record a scene and play it repeatedly - if it weren't for this victory, many high-quality magic stones were collected from the huge terrifying beast and the high-level devil. , such a valuable talisman is really not easy to obtain. In other words, the stage of this performance is not in the central square, nor in any square inch, but in this real world."

"When I heard that magic can do such wonderful things, I couldn't describe the surprise and joy in my heart." May said with emotion, "Miss Lorgar may not know much about drama, so she doesn't know what this means." What are you doing? Affected by factors such as age, experience, status, etc., it is difficult for actors to maintain the same level in every drama, so their peak performance will always only happen once."

"But now His Majesty is able to record this scene, which means that as long as you prepare in advance and rehearse a few more times, you can recreate the most exciting performance repeatedly, with every movement and expression being fully committed. The state, for us, is like a miracle!”

"I heard that this kind of talisman was originally only used to record significant meetings and festivals. It can be associated with drama, and I decided to rehearse a story based on the real background. I have to say that your Majesty's idea is really genius. ." Mei praised without reservation, "I bet that as long as the news is released, no drama actor will remain indifferent. Even if they are against Jin Long, they will never let go of this historic opportunity. .”

"Ahem," the chief said with a rare embarrassed look, "Of course the Star Flower Troupe deserves this honor better. In the past two years, you have also paid a lot to promote the decree." After saying that, he looked at Luo Jia, "What do you think? This story can be said to be tailor-made for you. It took me almost half a month of free time to finish it."

Even in the end, Lorgar didn't quite understand what the Phantom was about - she couldn't connect drama with miracles, and she didn't want to spend her precious time on such an uninteresting thing. But when she heard the chief say that this drama was created specifically for her, she couldn't help but change her decision.

"In that case... then I'll give it a try." Luo Jia shook his ears and replied.
