Chapter 1571 Things Have Changed

Strong wine drives away the cold, and the coat serves as a blanket.

I was trembling slightly and didn't sleep all night.

That night, the seconds counted like years, but he survived.

That night, the cold wind continued, and he gritted his teeth and remained stubbornly motionless.

Even though the wounds on his body were no longer in severe pain, even though the lost physical strength was constantly coming back, he still remained motionless.

This night, he thought a lot.

I thought about my innocent childhood, my lost and confused childhood, and my idle present.

The more he thought about it, the more his heart ached and the more difficult it became.

It was daybreak, and Claude dragged his tired body, walking with heavy steps toward the place pointed by the previous person, amidst the sideways glances and disregard of passers-by on the street.

Knocking on the door, it was still the middle-aged man, strong and gentle.

"I" Claude wanted to thank him, but the middle-aged man interrupted him.

The middle-aged man only asked one sentence: "Have you thought clearly?"

Claude nodded: "Yes."

Afterwards, the middle-aged man invited Claude into the house and closed the door to talk.

No one knows what the middle-aged man said to Claude. They only know that the next day, Claude sold all his belongings and moved into the middle-aged man's home. He became a servant, a waiter, and an apprentice. .

Since then, Claude has gradually faded from people's sight.

It wasn't until twenty years later that Claude's figure jumped into the public eye again. He was no longer the annoying Claude, but Master Claude, whom everyone respected.

"Who is that middle-aged man?" Compared with Master Claude's history of fame, I care more about the middle-aged man who can make Master Claude change so drastically.

Master Dewey glanced at the magic stone lamp that was flowing with magic colors, and said with emotion: "That middle-aged man, his name is Okaz, and he is the most outstanding forging master in the history of Fort Vicky."

"Okaz!" I exclaimed.

This name is so familiar!

The dagger I collected and gave to Barbara was not Master Okaz's last masterpiece - the Okaz dagger!

When I think of that dagger, the heart-stopping edge of that dagger will unconsciously appear in my mind.

Master Dewey looked at me doubtfully and said, "Have you heard of Master Okaz's name?"

"Yes" I nodded: "The dagger I gave to Barbara is the Okaz dagger."

"Okaz dagger!" This time, it was Master Dewey's turn to exclaim.

Master Hall on the side also looked horrified.

The Elf Queen, on the other hand, looked puzzled and asked: "Okaz dagger? I seem to have seen information related to this dagger. It seems to be an enchanted weapon."

"Yes" I nodded: "It's an enchanted weapon."

"But this enchanted weapon is even more outstanding than magic weapons!" Master Dewey said excitedly: "It can even easily cut through any magic weapon!"

"Huh?" The Elf Queen and Emily and I were confused.

This is the first time Emily has been moved since coming to Fort Vicky.

It's no wonder she is like this. This loyal and dedicated adventurer doesn't care about many foreign affairs, but she is very interested in things like swords, especially good swords.

There is no doubt that a sword that can easily cut off magic weapons must be a good sword.

She was so interested in it that she lost her composure.

Master Hall coughed twice, reminding us that we were a little out of sorts.

Emily recovered instantly, her expression still calm, and her face was like a breeze.

On the other hand, the Elf Queen and I were a little embarrassed. After coughing lightly and rubbing our cheeks with both hands, we finally regained our composure.

Master Dewey continued: "It's no wonder that you don't know about the Okaz dagger. This is originally a dark history of our Fort Vicky. Since the dagger was lost, the case has been closed and archived. Except for us core executives, They are ordinary people, and they don’t know much about this period of history, let alone the Okaz dagger.”

The Elf Queen's expression was slightly tinged, as if she was quite interested in this unknown dark history.

Humans are always curious about unknown things, and the Queen is no exception.

Master Dewey said: "However, that period of black history is a secret of Fort Vicky, and it is also private and cannot be disclosed to outsiders."

The Elf Queen felt a little sorry.

The delicacies were quickly prepared, served on exquisite crystal plates, and placed on the dining table in an orderly and careful manner.

Near the Elf Queen, there are mostly vegetarian dishes, and occasionally meat dishes, but very few.

As for the others, there were various dishes made from delicacies from the mountains and seas, as well as birds and animals.

The dishes on the table are evenly distributed. At first glance, if you hadn't known that the Elf Queen was not good at eating meat, you would have felt that everyone on the table was bullying her.

The Elf Queen smiled and thanked: "Thank you Master Dewey for thinking about me."

Master Dewey laughed and said, "That's right. Her Majesty the Queen is a distinguished guest. Although you do as the Romans do, you still have to respect some habits. I heard that Her Majesty the Queen is not a vegetarian, so I specifically asked the cook to prepare more vegetarian dishes."

"Master Dewey is attentive." The Elf Queen suddenly stretched out her chopsticks, picked up a piece of barbecue, slowly put it into the bowl, and said: "I did not eat meat before, but some accidents happened and I broke the rules of my ancestors. So now you can also eat meat."

After saying that, he put the roasted meat into his mouth gracefully and chewed it slowly.

Master Dewey was startled, then smiled and said: "It seems that my understanding of Her Majesty the Queen is not comprehensive enough, haha, you deserve to be punished, you deserve to be punished!"

After that, he picked up the wine glass, filled it with wine, and drank it all in one gulp.

The Elf Queen also picked up the wine glass and took a sip in return.

Seeing that their expressions remained unchanged, I let out a sigh of relief.

There are so many mysteries among these high-level officials that you will be shocked every second!

Master Dewey wanted to express his thorough understanding of the Elf Queen by being a vegetarian, and warned her not to find any excuses to deal with his transaction.

But the Elf Queen added a piece of barbecue. On the surface, she seemed to say that she had changed her eating habits and could eat meat. But in fact, she was telling Master Dewey that I am different from my ancestors. I can break the rules set by my ancestors and don't treat them the same way. way to treat me.

Just a piece of barbecue can bring out so many mysteries. It’s so painful that my mother-in-law’s balls hurt. Is it possible to have a pleasant meal?

Just at this moment, a goblin walked quickly and whispered in Master Dewey's ear.

Master Dewey's expression changed slightly, but he soon regained his composure. He glanced at the waiter lightly and said, "I'm busy. Go tell my son and tell him to make a decision."

The waiter responded, quickly came to my side again, and whispered a few words.

After hearing this, I trembled all over, and an uncontrollable solemnity hit my heart.

I frowned and thought for a moment. Then I suddenly smiled and said, "Step back first."

The waiter excused himself.

The Elf Queen looked at me and said with concern: "Elder Xiao Yi, are you okay?"

"It's okay." I acted quite relaxedly, took a bite of food, drank a sip of wine, and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry about it, it's just some trivial matters."

However, in my heart, there was already a huge wave.

If it's really a trivial matter, that's fine, hey.
