Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

"What era is it now? I'm still thinking about the monastery period. As a saint, I carry out God's will and preach the doctrine as the Lord's spokesperson." Cordelia took another step forward: "With all due respect, Miss Laurentine, I only I'm afraid I'll shrink back and be submissive when meeting members of the royal family, right? I'm afraid I can't afford the position of Mr. Bai's female companion. He is surrounded by the spotlight. This is exactly my strength. No matter how you look at it, I am better than you. She is more qualified to be Mr. Bai’s female companion.”

"No matter what you say, I am the fiancée. I have a marriage contract and my parents' orders." Paige did not back down at all.

The two girls seemed to have electric sparks bursting out from their eyes, as they faced off with their chests raised, meeting each other at the top.

"You are not called a fiancée," Cordelia said. "You can only be called a danchi wife."

...You really didn't go to Fusang in vain. You have learned the essence of the hometown dialect in your childhood.

"Huh?" Peggy didn't understand the Fuso word, but she instinctively sensed that it wasn't a good word.

Cordelia deliberately ignored her fiancée when she entered the house. In her opinion, Ilsa and Bai Yu were just a political marriage, nothing comparable to her deep love and friendship. She should not give up in spite of difficulties at this time. Retreat?

Laurent thought she had found a treasure, but what qualifications did she have?

Don't think that if you touch it a little, it belongs to you.

The president's sister, who was most qualified to speak at this time, sat down slowly and leisurely, watching the confrontation with interest.

She naturally knew that both girls had an extraordinary relationship with Bai Yu... Cordelia didn't need to say more, and Ilsa could see that she and Bai Yu also had a hidden past.

As a sister, she can't be biased. There is no mother in the Bai family, so her sister's responsibilities are similar to those of a mistress.

Melusina did not intend to give up the advantage of her status, because if she voluntarily gave up her advantageous position to compete with other girls, wouldn't she be downgraded and lose her style?

The gain outweighs the loss.

Just as the two women were arguing and going back and forth, there was another knock on the door.

Bai Yu thought that there was no way it could still be a girl's house. One more girl would be able to form a mahjong table.

The person knocking at the door spoke.

"Master Bai, my young lady Anna specially sent me a letter to invite you here..."

The two girls looked back and glared at the same time, saying in unison.

"Get out!"

Chapter 783 Banquet, Kingdom of Shadows

The next night.

Bai Yu and Cordelia went to Buckingham Palace together and attended the banquet.

Originally he thought Peggy and Cordelia were still going to argue, but problems in the Laurentian family prevented Peggy from getting away.

Even Melusina had to stay and help out.

Because Morse refused to give up, he took his die-hard followers with him and chose to rebel.

That night, Paige suffered an assassination, but the assassination was quickly resolved.

Peggy is now at the level of a fourth-level mage, and is still the most difficult vampire mage with extremely strong vitality.

After killing the assassin, torture revealed that the employer was Morse.

Then Peggy quickly judged that Morse's plan was to assassinate important members of the family and leave Laurent in chaos.

He was at the end of his rope and completely crazy.

Of course, Morse didn't go on the field himself. Although he was crazy, he was not a fool. He came up to kill people himself. Even if he succeeded, it would be one for one.

And with Baiyu here, exchanging one for another is a luxury.

Their fundamental goal is actually to disrupt the Laurentian family, and then find an opportunity to steal the money and run away in a bucket.

Through the underground black market, a large amount of money, industries, and shops are exchanged for hard currencies such as gold, gemstones, and elemental crystals, and then find a place to start over.

After all, the world is so big, there is always a place to stay.

But if Morse wants to leave Midwinter, he can only transfer his property through the ghost fleet.

But he is here, and there are only a few ghost fleets in the world.

Although Edward couldn't get ashore, it didn't mean that he couldn't read the newspaper to learn about the specific situation.

Yesterday, the man who was scolded by Cordilli and Peggy at the same time, and the lady who sent the letter behind him, were actually a metaphor.

The letter was signed Anna at the end.

It refers to the Queen Anna, the flagship of Edward Blackbeard's fleet.

With Blackbeard's tip, Morse's transfer plan had been completely exposed ten hours before its execution.

Of course, even if he found Nelson, the result would be the same.

The cooperation between Donghuang and the Ghost Fleet has just been reached. It is a secret treaty, and Morse has no way of knowing about it.

When he was anxiously waiting for the fleet at the dock at three o'clock in the morning, what was waiting for him was the guards of the Laurent family and the security personnel of the Donghuang Group.

Morse was pinned to the ground before he could dance his last dance.

Morse was brought back by the police, and a slot was reserved for him in Scotland Yard's prison. Next, he will face a number of criminal charges, including more than 20 criminal charges, including murder, arson, asset reselling, and financial fraud. The crime will eventually be dealt with as a solid case. If you are lucky, you can get a three-year reprieve from death. If you are not lucky, you will have to go to the execution ground in three months. Speed ​​up this week's game.

Peggy actually had no intention of killing Morse. Although this man was very ambitious, he was also capable. If he bowed his head and admitted his mistake, the family could keep him as long as he signed the order contract and swore with his heart.

But the result of being paranoid is that the road goes dark, and the result of unrepentance is death.

Although Morse's problem has been solved, the large number of assets he brought has also become a problem. Just counting these will take a lot of time.

The good thing is that when he ran away with the bucket, he also took all his wealth with him, which greatly enriched the Laurentin family's treasury.

Peggy sighed repeatedly, no wonder the emperor liked to kill nobles and confiscate their homes.

Bai Yu deeply agreed. He remembered that there was a game in the past where He Shen was played as a card character. When he ran out of money, He Shen was killed and looted, then resurrected, and then killed and looted again, and the cycle continued in the game cycle. , Crazy explosion of gold coins.

In short, after last night's episode, the president's sister and his fiancée Peggy had to work overtime to liquidate their assets, contain the Laurentin faction while the iron was hot, appease people's hearts, and eliminate the serious illness. They had no time to accompany Bai Yu to the royal dinner.

……

The little carriage rocked and rocked.

Bai Yu didn't understand. Although there was such a good invention as the car, why did it have to be a carriage? No matter how good the carriage was, it would be bumpy. Is it worth giving up a comfortable sofa, refrigerator, and large color TV to pursue a sense of ritual?

Cordelia didn't have so many thoughts. She held Bai Yu's arms and smiled confidently and unruly.

His eyes and subtle expressions were very similar to those of a young man who was pressed against the wall by the school belle at the age of eighteen and kissed him.

Full of pride, arrogance, vanity, self-confidence and even arrogance.

It is not incomprehensible.

After all, Bai Yu knew that she would be the most beautiful girl in the entire banquet tonight; and as his female companion, Cordelia was naturally the most beautiful girl in the banquet.

The two entered the banquet venue.

Buckingham Palace has opened a very high-standard hall, called the Palace of Hearts, which is usually open only to entertain foreign guests.

The royal family showed the proper attitude.

The first half of the banquet was basically lackluster.

All kinds of communication in aristocratic circles are inevitable.

The prince who was in charge of hosting the banquet had a really mediocre attitude. He said a few polite words to Bai Yu and then nothing happened.

Princess Sissi did not show up at all, but Princess Helen, who invited Bai Yu, did show up.

She took the initiative to reveal the reason for inviting Bai Yu because she was curious about Bai Yu's past experience.

Princess Helen has a vest who is a best-selling novelist in Midwinter, and Baiyu is a rare source of material for her.

Bai Yu told her a few stories, some related to himself, or some real past related to some heroic spirits.

Seeing Princess Helen's thoughtful expression, Bai Yu guessed that she must have been inspired, and took the initiative to leave.

After two dances with Cordelia, the banquet came to an end.

But Bai Yu's real goal of coming to Buckingham Palace has not yet been achieved.

He has not yet been able to meet Queen Victoria.

If she met Victoria, she should be able to tell her the whereabouts of the old man.

If you are lucky, you can also learn the way to enter the fairy kingdom from the other party.

Although the fairy kingdom is not a secret at all in the middle of winter, there are very few people who are qualified to enter it, and there are only a handful of people who can be favored by the fairies.

The Queen of Midwinter was a canonized saint with an extraordinary status, so naturally not everyone could meet her casually. However, Bai Yu was a distinguished guest who had sent the Sun Never Sets back, so the Midwinter royal family had to listen to his application and give him a decent explanation.

The prince was surrounded by a group of nobles, chatting and talking about everything; Bai Yu could only find the princess to submit an oral application.

The princess has a very good impression of Bai Yu. In addition, she was originally an aristocrat who grew up in Rome, so her attitude is quite friendly.

She said helplessly that the saint from Rome and Victoria had been staying in the greenhouse and had not come out yet, and no one dared to go and ask questions.

Only then did Bai Yu know that Lyudmila had arrived at Buckingham Palace three days ago and talked to Victoria about the present.

The conversation between the two saints must be extraordinary.

Bai Yu had no choice but to give up temporarily, and then asked: "After I came to Midwinter, I didn't even see a saint?"

The princess smiled and said: "How can it be so easy to see a saint... In this midwinter, most of the saints stay in the country of goblins."

"Is the Fairy Country good?"

"I don't know, and I have never been there." The princess said, "There have been rumors that the Fairy Country is an ideal land that can make people live forever."

"False." Bai Yu asserted firmly. If this was true, countless people would have been waiting in line to enter.

The princess smiled slightly: "Of course it's fake, but the saints left in the Fairy Kingdom are real."

"Because the Holy Grail Knight must protect the Holy Grail."

"correct……"

The princess suddenly remembered something and took the initiative to propose.

"Now that Mr. Bai is here, would you like to see the Holy Grail on a different day?"

"Just think of it as getting familiar with it in advance."

Bai Yu was puzzled: "Is the Holy Grail open to anyone's opinion?"

"Of course not." The princess shook her head and smiled: "The Holy Grail will only stay where it should be, and what you see in the real world is just its reflection."

……

Buckingham Palace, in the conservatory gardens.

Lyudmila picked up the steaming tea cup and waited silently for the queen in front of her to open her eyes.

After waiting for two days and two nights, Victoria's eyelashes trembled slightly and she immediately opened her eyes.

There was a hint of fatigue in the Queen's expression.

"Perhaps your immersion time was a little too long this time. I thought you fell asleep, Her Majesty the Queen."

"If this counts as falling asleep, it will definitely be a nightmare." Victoria gently rubbed her eyebrows. She picked up the teacup, cut another piece of cake, and took a sip: "I haven't eaten for three days, so I'm a little hungry."

"Your sainthood is so fragile."

"After all, I'm different from you. I just see farther than ordinary people, and I'm not good at fighting." Victoria rubbed her sore shoulders: "I'll have to let my granddaughter give me a pat on the back later."

"Are you deliberately stalling for time? Is the situation really so bad that you don't want to speak?"

The cold Valkyrie frowned, and her tone became a little more depressed: "So, what did you see? Have you found the whereabouts of the Roman Emperor?"

Victoria was silent for a while.

"I just saw the Kingdom of Shadows."

"Scathach told me."

"She said...the emperor is dead."

Suddenly, glittering snowflakes began to float in the greenhouse.

A snowflake fell into the black tea and instantly froze into a lump of ice.

Lyudmila's eyes were cold: "This...impossible, Victoria, can you be responsible for what you said?"

The disappearance of the Roman emperor is the hardest secret among the secrets. Now the person overseeing the country is the crown prince, and the person pretending to be the emperor is Prince Tiling.

And now the emperor is dead?
