Chapter 1397 No Right to Interfere
In line with the idea that "one cannot be too comfortable", I took off the crown and put it back on Barbara's head.
Everyone who was enjoying the scene suddenly lost the light, and instantly looked disappointed and their eyes were full of confusion, like salted fish that had just been dried in the sun and had lost their dream of swimming in the sea.
"Xiao Yi~" Xiao Remi, who was sitting on my neck, kept patting the top of my head with her little hands: "Wear it for a while longer~"
Phoenix also raised his head and stared at me with tears in his eyes.
Even Cagalli changed her big sister look and looked at me with a feminine look, her eyes could make water flow.
But Barbara was still arrogant. Without thinking, she slapped the crown on my hand and said to me with her chin: "Put it on quickly, I haven't had enough of the light bath yet!"
This queen?
When did she become a queen?
In my memory, Barbara used to be so gentle and energetic. Except for being lazy when working, she was always lively and active. I never saw her engaging in any arrogant behavior.
It seems that since her first conflict with Phoenix in the cafe, her whole person has changed, and her hidden tsundere attributes have been discovered. She screams that she is a queen all day long - this title seems to be only for me. .
Could it be that the appearance of Phoenix activated her jealous nature, and a series of unknown mutations occurred, resulting in her current appearance?
I'm quite puzzled by this.
Reluctantly, he wore the crown for another ten minutes, and the men and women around him slept together. Most of them were lying on the grass with their limbs stretched out, with happy expressions on their faces, as if they had eaten a top-notch meal in a dream.
Among the fellow travelers, the only one who was awake seemed to be Mr. Taylor.
The old man was looking at the crown on my head and my face from beginning to end. Although his upper and lower eyelids were closed together many times, he finally relied on his strong willpower to forcefully open his eyes.
He even drank a full bottle of wine in one go in order to stay awake!
By the way, isn’t wine used to help you sleep?
I slept for half an hour. When I woke up, everyone had a satisfied expression, and I found that everyone's eyes were brighter than before.
"Sleep so well." Lilea stretched out and blinked her starry eyes that were brighter than usual.
"It's good for Xiaoyi to wear a crown," Yula said with a smile, "it helps us sleep."
"Agree!" "Agree!"
Yura's words elicited a chorus of 'yes'.
"But, what exactly is this crown?" Cagalli asked, gently flicking her chin with her right hand.
"I don't know." I put the crown on Barbara's head again: "It should be a kind of metal, but it feels a bit like stone. I'm not an expert in this field, so I really can't tell."
"Should we go back to the city and ask an expert to ask?" Cagalli suggested: "We have to go back to the city and take the magic airship anyway."
I shook my head and suggested: "If you want to find out what this is, I think it's better to ask the Fairy Queen directly. Of course, you can also go to Master Dewey. After all, they are well-informed and are experts in this field. "
"Well, this idea is feasible," Lilea said: "If you want to find out the source of mysterious things, it's best to ask those knowledgeable elders directly. I think Master Dewey should be better than Her Majesty the Fairy Queen in this regard. Be more authoritative.”
"That's not necessarily true," Yura said: "Look at the workmanship and pattern carvings of the crown, it doesn't look like it was made by goblins. Their craftsmanship is definitely not so fine and dense. To say it is precise and meticulous, it has to be."
"Elves!"
Yura and Lilea said this together.
Emily took off the crown from Barbara's head, looked around carefully, and said, "This crown was not made by an elf."
"Eh?" The two women said at the same time, wondering: "Do you have any research in this area?"
"I can't say I have done any research," Emily said, "but I have received training in this area and know the drawing techniques and manufacturing characteristics of elf products. Although the production techniques of elves are more sophisticated than other races, they are far from this level. kind of degree."
"Could it be that a certain generation of elves gave birth to a unique carving master who spent his whole life and devoted his whole life's learning to create such a stunning crown?" I guessed.
"No," Emily said lightly, "If there is, it will definitely be used as a model and passed down from generation to generation."
I spread my hands and said, "If that's the case, forget it. Let's take the airship back first. When we meet the Fairy Queen, we can ask her if she's okay."
Leaning on the sofa, I fiddled with the two vials in my hands, which contained two colorful spiders and scorpions, species I had never seen before.
When watching this kind of thing, I have to try my best to watch it behind my back. After all, women don’t like it, and men always want to kill them, or they want to put them together to see which one is more powerful.
I didn't catch them just to make these guys happy. I wanted to see if I could figure out the origin of that desolate tomb through understanding these two bugs.
The only thing I regret most about this trip to Huangling is that I didn’t bring a tape recorder.
I didn't understand the words Xu Ying introduced himself at all, and I don't have the superpower to understand it instantly. If I think about it now, it would have become vague, let alone repeating it.
A day and a half passed in the blink of an eye, and the magic airship finally arrived at Moonlight City.
The outside of the magic airship base was already crowded with people, all of whom were excited elven residents. Their trip was to celebrate the return of the Rose Legion.
Emily told me that similar celebration ceremonies had been performed many years ago. In the hearts of the people, no matter what achievements the Rose Legion achieved, they were their heroes.
Of course, the Rose Legion has never disappointed the people who are looking forward to the hero's return. Every time they return, they will be accompanied by impressive results - although they have never won the first place since the elf tribe was expelled.
Emily and the others deserved to enjoy the crowd's attention. As companions, we chose another path and sneaked back to the tree house first.
When I'm not at home during this period, the Fairy Queen has always sent people to clean it, otherwise it would have been piled up like a mountain of dust.
After sorting out my luggage for a while, I rushed to the palace with two of the stones, two vials containing bugs, and a crown - the crown was carried by Remi.
When I arrived at the palace gate, the guard greeted me and asked me what was in the vial.
I handed the vials to the two of them respectively and warned, "Don't open it. This bug is extremely poisonous. I caught it from the tomb."
The two guards looked at it for a moment, then carefully handed the vial back to me, and continued to stand guard.
I joked: "Why don't you ask me what I did with the two poisonous insects?"
The two guards shook their heads at the same time and said: "This is the elder's matter, we have no right to interfere."
