In the royal city, inside the Yellow Jade Hall.
This is the palace of the Imperial Court of Adren, where His Majesty the Emperor rests and handles government affairs.
"What did you say!?"
In the luxurious room, Romell looked at the guard who came to report the news in disbelief, and stood up from his chair in a flash.
"Why did two saints suddenly appear in the royal city!? Are you sure the accuracy of this news!?"
Under the stage, a guard in armor knelt on one knee, looked at the ground in front of Romell's feet, and replied:
"Yes, Your Majesty, this news has been confirmed by many parties, and many civilians in the city have witnessed it, so it should be accurate!"
"My subordinate also wanted to report to me. He once led the Royal Griffin Knights and wanted to go over to check the situation. However, in the end, the hurricane and heavy fog caused by the opponent blocked his sight, and he lost track of the target..."
Romell's face changed one after another after hearing this, and various emotions such as shock, suspicion, anxiety, etc. appeared on his face one after another.
"No, no, no, how could this happen... Why did two powerful saints suddenly appear in the royal city? Could it be that the teacher is back...?"
"It's impossible... I just received the news yesterday that the teacher was meeting the Elf Queen in the Elf Forest. Why did he suddenly come back? It shouldn't be him..."
"..."
He paced back and forth, thinking rapidly about all the possibilities.
Romell's teacher naturally refers to the human race's only saint-level powerhouse, Holy Magister McAvey Lecentra.
During this period, due to the invasion of the orc war, it was difficult for humans to resist alone, so they planned to unite with allies such as elves and dwarves to deal with them.
Although the elves were not allies, it was a long time ago, and there was not much communication between the two races.
In addition, the elves are basically arrogant people who like to look at people through their nostrils, so there are very few people in the human race who can talk to them.
If you want to persuade the other party to form an alliance, you must have sufficient strength. Among humans, only the Holy Magister can take on this important task.
Therefore, in Romell's mind now, his teacher should still be in the Elf Forest, and it is absolutely impossible for him to appear in Talata City.
In this case, the identity of the two saint-level experts is a bit doubtful.
Romell also guessed that the teacher might have persuaded the Elf Queen and brought her here as a guest.
But this speculation was quickly rejected by him.
If the teacher really used some unknown means to quickly return to Talata across the thousands of kilometers, it would be impossible for him to hide himself, and he would definitely return to the imperial court as soon as possible.
After all, he is the king of mankind. How can we avoid discussing the alliance between the two parties without him?
Now, what Romel is most worried about is that the two people are enemies rather than friends.
If they were terrifying existences from the orcs, then their base camp would probably suffer.
As the news spread, the members of the Adren royal family also began to hide and move quickly.
When there was no guarantee whether those two people would pose a threat to them, everything had to be prepared for the worst.
Zhang Xiaoman didn't know how much impact his appearance had on the royal family, but even if he knew it, he wouldn't care. Anyway, he didn't intend to take action against these people. Everything they did was just It's just a matter of confusion.
Now, Zhang Xiaoman is sitting in a luxurious room of the Iron Furnace Chamber of Commerce, drinking tea prepared by Fox while waiting for his reply.
This room looks like it should be Fox's private room, and it is very hidden. The maids and servants outside obviously don't know it exists.
Just now, after asking Zhang Xiaoman to wait for a moment, Fox walked into the room alone, looking mysterious and mysterious, which made people even more curious for a while.
Zhang Xiaoman looked around.
From the outside, this should be a very large study room. The structure of the study room is a bit like a suite, divided into two parts, the inside and the outside.
The place where he is now is outside. The entire wall is covered with scrolls, which are densely packed in the compartments on the bookshelf. If someone with trypophobia looks at them, they will be dizzy.
Zhang Xiaoman could feel that there seemed to be a lot of energy flowing in front of the bookshelf, which should be something like a barrier.
However, the strength of this barrier is still a bit too weak for him. If he wants to destroy it, he can break it in an instant.
This is not to say that the barrier here is very crude. If it were an eighth-level magician, Zhang Xiaoman believed that the opponent might not be able to defeat the barrier here in a short time.
But this world's power system has a very big drawback, that is, their elemental power - that is, magic power - has not reached the level of dark spiritual power.
Although it is said that high-level professionals are converting in this direction, with Fox's strength, the degree of this conversion is still very poor, and the dark spiritual power that can be used is probably only one-third.
In fact, the energy intensity in Fox's body is not low, not much worse than that of Zhang Xiaoman.
But the difference between them lies in the level of energy in the body. Fox still has the kind of elemental power in his body. Although there is a little shadow of dark spiritual power, it is still not up to standard.
Therefore, when facing such an opponent, the damage Zhang Xiaoman inflicts on the opponent is basically real damage. It is still very difficult to resist the attack of dark spiritual power with his shield.
"These things seem to be magic scrolls. They seem to be of a relatively low level..."
He looked at the items in the bookshelves on the wall and guessed their functions.
Zhang Xiaoman has been in this world for more than a month, and he still knows about magic scrolls.
These scrolls look very similar to the spirit scrolls I made, but there are some differences.
He has been studying alchemy and has not had time to get into contact with magic.
While he was wondering what the uses of these scrolls were, Fox came out of the inner room with an excited look on his face.
"Your Excellency Jixing, I have obtained the permission of the Saint, and please come with me into the Holy Land, and I will introduce you..."
He suppressed the fluctuations in his heart and quickly calmed down his emotions again.
Zhang Xiaoman nodded and followed the other person into the study room.
