Chapter 123 Fishing on Your Island
"Because of a divination, father. Google search and read"
In the Eye of the Storm Hall, facing the governor's questioning, Xia held her head high and was full of confidence.
"Oh? What is it?"
The governor sitting on the high platform in the middle of the hall asked.
"The result of the divination is in this letter."
Xia seemed unwilling to say it in public, and only took out the letter in her hand.
Seeing this, the attendant on the side immediately took the letter away and presented it to the governor.
But facing the letter presented, Governor Fel didn't even look at it, just said:
"If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
He is a very pragmatic person and doesn't believe in the seemingly true divination.
Moreover, the governor was already dissatisfied with Xia's sudden intrusion, and now he just wanted to see what she was going to do.
Hearing this, Xia nodded slightly, but she did not follow the governor's intention, and only insisted:
"Father, you still read the content of the letter."
Seeing Xia's reaction, Governor Fel couldn't help but frown.
He couldn't remember when his illegitimate daughter had such courage.
In the few times they met in the past ten years, the governor remembered.
Even though Xia had an excellent talent in divination, she was always timid and humble, and even trembled and feared in crowded places.
But she seemed different recently, as if she had changed into a different person.
Governor Fell never knew this daughter, and had no intention of understanding her.
He was only dissatisfied with Xia's changes, but he was too lazy to delve into it.
Pick up the letter presented by the servant and unfold it.
"What is written in your letter?"
On the other side, Li Feng, who was standing in the hall, asked Xia through the contract.
"A prophecy in the past, combined with the previous two events, can make the governor afraid of you."
Xia also replied through the contract.
"What kind of prophecy?"
Li Feng asked.
"The Seven Gods' Protector."
'The Seven Gods' Protector? ’
In the Eye of the Storm Hall, Ponros Fell, who sat on the Governor's seat, looked down at the letter in his hand, his heart was uncertain.
A hundred years ago, the divination master who was famous in the Endless Sea but crazy predicted before his death that a protector of the Seven Gods would appear a hundred years later, and Governor Fell also knew about this.
In the prophecy, the protector of the Seven Gods a hundred years later will break the obstacle of being unable to be promoted to a demigod.
Perhaps the king really gave him the title because of this, and the Ring of the Earth also wooed him for this reason.
Although Governor Fell did not believe in divination, the prophecy related to the Seven Gods still made him feel uneasy.
Looking at the words on the letter in his hand, he did have more fear of Li Feng.
But, is that kid really the person in the prophecy?
The person who found the obstacle to being promoted to a demigod is not the same as the person who solved the obstacle.
Besides.
The Governor closed the letter silently.
‘How does this conflict with my plan? If he is really the guardian of the Seven Gods, wouldn't it be more beneficial to me? '
After that, Governor Fel stood up with a generous smile, and he walked to the edge of the steps on the high platform.
He said to everyone in the Eye of the Storm Hall:
"Today's incident is just a misunderstanding. Mr. Rhine is a person who has gained the trust of the kingdom. How could he be a murderer?"
As soon as the governor said this, all the retainers and nobles in the hall immediately echoed.
"In order to express my apology for this matter, as the governor, I am going to send most of the books in the Scholar Tower of Storm's End Castle to Mr. Rhine."
The governor announced to everyone, and then he turned to Li Feng and said to him alone:
"Mr. Rhine, I heard that you are a scholar who came to Storm Island to study. I believe my collection of books will be useful to you.
As long as you want to come and see, the door of Storm's End Castle will always be open to you."
Hearing the governor's apology, Li Feng was stunned.
He never thought that the governor would do such a thing.
Li Feng really likes books, especially after traveling to the Endless Sea, his thirst for knowledge is even more urgent.
In this world full of the extraordinary and the unknown, knowledge is definitely one of the most powerful guarantees for survival.
Just like the paper spirit that scared the investigator this morning, Li Feng didn't know the existence of this thing before, and he almost suffered a great loss.
So the governor wanted to give him most of the books in the Bachelor's Tower, and Li Feng was unwilling to refuse.
But he also sighed in his heart:
'After all, he is the Governor of the Big Island, this method is wonderful. '
The Bachelor's Tower in Fengxi Castle is more than ten stories high, and at least hundreds of thousands of books are stored.
If you are given a number of books that you can't take away, then it's still called giving, at most it can only be called borrowing.
And from his point of view, I am afraid that I can't finish reading so many books in my lifetime.
But if I use them for fishing, it's hard to say.
The thoughts in my mind are thousands of miles away, but in fact it's only a moment.
Li Feng immediately smiled and nodded to express his gratitude.
But at this time, he heard Governor Fell continue to speak, with a more intimate tone:
"When people get old, they always sigh that the young are formidable. Rhine, I have always admired your ability and talent.
If you don't despise my Wind's End Castle, why don't you come to my Wind's End Castle to be a bachelor, so that you can teach my useless children."
"Don't agree to him!"
Before Governor Fell finished speaking, Xia said to Li Feng through the contract:
"Don't agree to him!
The Governor is suspicious by nature. I guess he wants to keep you in Wind's End Castle because of the notes and the promotion to demigod.
This is his territory. Only by doing this can he monitor your subsequent actions.
He is not inviting you to be a bachelor. He wants to use you and wants your life. Don't be fooled by him! "
Governor Fell's voice and Xia's voice sounded in his ears at the same time.
But at the same time, Li Feng's eyes also appeared with lines of text that only he could see.
[Trigger fishing task:]
[Replace Governor Pangloss Fell of Storm Island and become the actual controller of Storm Island.]
[Task reward: Fishing your Storm Island, you will get the fragments of the Creator and a copy of the truth of the world.
[Accept the task/abandon the task]
At some point, the dark clouds in the sky had dissipated, and bright and dazzling sunlight came through the painted glass.
Listening to the words in his ears and looking at the task in front of him, Li Feng, who was surprised for a moment, just smiled indifferently.
He looked past Xia, who was worried, and looked at the governor with a gleam in his eyes, and said softly:
"It's an honor."
"Okay! Get the whale blood. "
Seeing that Li Feng readily agreed to enter Wind's End as a bachelor, the governor's face was almost uncontrollable.
He ordered his servants to get the whale blood for the appointment ceremony, and at the same time he thought in his heart:
'As long as this kid enters Wind's End, no matter what the king wants him to do, or what the Earth Ring wants him to do, he will not be able to escape my surveillance.
Players, mermaids, underwater cities, lost extraordinary knowledge...
With this kid, plus my undercover in the royal city, their plans will be under my control.'
On the other side, in a harmonious atmosphere, Li Feng, with a smile on his face, was also thinking in his heart.
The clues to investigating the gargoyles in the promotion mission are in Wind's End, and The fishing mission that was triggered just now required him to replace the governor.
The governor was at the fourth level and ninth rank, and replacing him was obviously not a task he could accomplish at the moment.
Originally, Li Feng wanted to consider whether to be more cautious, but the mission reward was too unusual.
The fragments of the creator and a piece of the truth of the world.
Needless to say, the fragments of the creator are important just by the name.
As for a piece of the truth of the world, this is what Li Feng has always wanted to explore.
His first life was in a world that was originally normal but suddenly broke out in a zombie crisis.
He didn't think much of it, but after his first time traveling and discovering a game called Left 4 Dead .
He realized that his original world was just a game.
And what about the current Endless Sea world? It really exists, but in another world, it is also presented in the form of a game.
The current player world, the current Endless Sea world, and the world of the last life.
For Li Feng, he has been to as many as three worlds.
But in addition to this, the old player Faranil also has a player world.
But according to his autobiography, his player world has been destroyed.
So, what is the reason for all this?
Li Feng has always had this question, and he wants to figure it out. Everything, and also want to get rid of it all.
But for the truth of the world, Li Feng has been helpless that he can't touch it, and can only follow the system step by step.
And now, the system seems to have given him a chance, and Li Feng is unwilling to give up no matter what.
Moreover, although there is no direct conflict between him and the governor, the other various hatreds added up are enough to kill each other.
Since it is something that will be faced eventually, why hide it anymore.
Moreover, Li Feng analyzed that he now has a promotion task, and the promotion to demigod is no longer restricted by external factors.
So even if he is only the second level now, it is unknown who will win and who will lose between him and the governor in the future.
"Are you crazy? Why did you agree to him? He has no good intentions!"
Xia's shocked voice continued to come through the contract:
"You can leave Storm Island, you can go to the royal city, you can use the excuse of the king's summons, you can also..."
"I have the same purpose as you."
Listening to the various reasons Xia found for him, Li Feng only replied lightly.
"What? "
Hearing Li Feng's words, Xia was completely stunned.
'How could it be? How is it possible? Is he going to kill the governor too?'
Xia looked at Li Feng with eyes wide open in disbelief. At this time, Li Feng was chatting harmoniously with the governor and other nobles. The scene was so disharmonious.
Hearing Xia's question, Li Feng turned his head and glanced at her casually, with a look in his eyes that only the two of them could understand.
'Is it true? He actually...'
Just when Xia hadn't figured it out in her mind, the servant had come up with a silver plate.
In the silver plate that was polished like a mirror, there was a bottle of white wine at the moment. A bottle of whale blood and two empty crystal wine glasses.
Seeing that the things had been presented, Governor Fell first picked up the white wine and filled two crystal wine glasses with wine.
Then he picked up the bottle of whale blood and dripped a drop into each glass.
As soon as the bright red whale blood entered the wine glass, it immediately dyed the wine in the glass red.
Afterwards, Governor Fell took a glass of wine and drank it in front of Li Feng.
This is an ancient tradition of the Endless Sea. Whenever the king appointed a governor or the governor recruited staff, whale blood would be added to the wine.
Li Feng learned about this tradition from history books. It is just a secular ritual and has nothing to do with the extraordinary.
Seeing that the governor had already drank, Li Feng picked up his cup and drank it all without saying a word.
The midsummer sun shines on the towering and huge Storm's End, and shines through the colorful stained glass into the majestic, glorious and oppressive Eye of the Storm hall.
As the crystal wine glass fell back on the silver plate, from now on, Li Feng has become the bachelor of Storm's End, responsible for academic aspects and consultant work.
Because it was personally favored by the governor and had a personal title from the king, many nobles in the hall rushed to show their favor to Li Feng.
Even Albert Tilly, who had just accused him, was no exception.
He walked up to Li Feng, shook hands with him, and smiled kindly:
"I'm really sorry just now. I was rude. The investigator's paper spirit can track people who have been to the crime scene, but people who have been to the crime scene may not necessarily be the murderer.
Besides, this little paper man can also make mistakes. "
Albert Tilly's meaningful words echoed in the Eye of the Storm Hall.
He was reminding everyone in a conflict-free way that Li Feng had been to the crime scene.
In fact, Albert Tilly did not know that Li Feng was the murderer.
In his plan, he first ordered someone to interfere with Zhi Ling and let Zhi Ling capture Li Feng.
As long as Zhi Ling catches Li Feng in public, no matter who killed the three knights, he can accuse Li Feng of having been at the scene.
Although everyone knows that the paper spirit is easy to find the wrong person due to interference, but who can guarantee whether the paper spirit searching for the person this time is the right one or the wrong one?
Li Feng has seen this kind of people before. They are extremely good at making trouble and making it hard for you to defend yourself.
'This should be part of their plan. ’
Li Feng thought:
'Give me a stain that can never be explained.
Oh, it’s just a pity...'
"Mr. Tilly, I did go to the scene of the crime where your niece was killed."
Faced with Albert Tilly's accusations, Li Feng admitted directly and generously.
As soon as these words came out, needles could be heard in the entire majestic and glorious Eye of the Storm Hall.
Albert Tilly looked at Li Feng in surprise. Governor Fehr didn't know what he was going to do and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
And Xia looked at Li Feng in disbelief, her head buzzing.
"That day when I returned to Wind's End City from the outskirts of the city, I happened to meet three people lying in a pool of blood."
As Li Feng spoke, he took out a piece of folded paper from his arms and continued:
“But at that time, I was carrying Faranir’s notes and was on my way in a hurry, so I didn’t dare to make any trouble.
So I only reported the matter to the patrol police in the outer city of Wind's Rest City. This is the receipt I received after calling the police. "
As he spoke, Li Feng unfolded the folded paper in his hand, handed it to Albert Tilly, and said to him again:
"Mr. Tilly, my condolences."
Albert Tilly was now so shocked that he automatically ignored his grief.
He just took the paper immediately and quickly put on his glasses to look at it carefully.
Governor Fehr really didn't expect things to develop to this point.
Even though he was losing his identity, he couldn't help but glance at the police receipt.
"General, Mr. Governor, there is no problem in replying to the receipt."
Albert Tilly, whose plan failed, was very unnatural and presented the alarm receipt to the Governor.
Since Li Feng really passed by the crime scene, it is only natural that the investigator's paper spirit caught him.
But according to the autopsy, he was not the murderer.
Therefore, Li Feng's suspicion has been completely cleared.
Looking at the receipt submitted, Governor Fehr waved his hand decently, acting as if he had trusted Li Feng from the beginning.
As for Xia, who had been frightened for a long time, after all the twists and turns, the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
But she still couldn't help but wonder:
‘How on earth did he do it, kill someone and still dare to call the police and ask for a receipt? ’
The hot summer wind blew through Storm's End Castle, and it was already noon.
In the Eye of the Storm Hall, all the "misunderstandings" have been resolved.
Sia stood aside and looked at the scene. No matter what the purpose was, everyone present was very interested.
Governor Fair even happily invited Li Feng to have lunch, and Li Feng readily agreed.
On the surface, they seem to be chatting and laughing with like-minded people, but secretly they both want to kill each other.
Shia felt that she was increasingly unable to understand the human world.
She couldn't tell whether she was worried or afraid. As an illegitimate daughter who was not favored, Xia followed the crowd and left the eye of the storm.
The dazzling sunlight suddenly shone from the door railing, and Sia quickly lowered her eyes.
Somehow, the sunshine suddenly reminded her of what Li Feng had said that day in the suburbs:
Don't worry, I'm prepared.
