The sunrise in Iron Claw City happened to be met with heavy fog, and the morning was shrouded in clouds and smoke. Suddenly, the city was not much different from Blumnot. Uriel soon heard the church bells, and the buzzing sound echoed on the stone walls of the tower, shaking off a thin layer of frost on the glass. This seemed to be a unique phenomenon on the top floor of the White Tower.
After lighting the fireplace, the remaining frost slowly melted. Just as Uriel was about to open the window, he quickly took advantage of the last moment to condense a line of words: "Put the quilt on the little baby!" You idiot"
The words of Sauron the Ring are not very pleasant to listen to most of the time, but sometimes they are very useful. Uriel then remembered that there was a fragile baby in the room, and he would probably catch a cold if the cold wind blew. When he was still a mortal, he took good care of himself so as not to be fired by his employer when he fell ill. Now that he has become a mysterious creature, he is clumsy and slow in some aspects. He quickly closed the gap in the window and used magic to cover the entire cradle in the corner.
"You're a little distracted"
Uriel didn't think so. "I slept too late yesterday."
"Another nightmare?" From what I've seen, you'd better leave the Scroll of Oath in Brumnot. The equipment department can provide mysterious items of level 1. That piece of paper has a great influence on you.』
After the level of mystery increased, the side effects of the Scroll of Oath became less severe, but it still bothered him. The Ring's advice seems worth following. Croyta has a history of more than three thousand years, its wealth is far beyond that of the mortal kingdom, and ring-level mysterious items are not considered rare. Uriel now understood the attitude of the Tower Prophet. Presumably as long as he opened his mouth, the Equipment Department would not refuse the Foreign Minister's apprentice... However, Uriel did not dare to put the Scroll of Oath in the Equipment Department.
The church's sacred scriptures were originally kept secretly in the church headquarters in Brumnot, and the Black Knight did not hesitate to cause massacre for the "Confessions". If I give the Scroll of Oath to the Tower, will the Black Knight give up? Or...after the Gulf War, Uriel could not make up his mind to test the methods of a demon lord, but he promised to let me keep the Scroll of Oath after all. Due to the nature of the parchment, it seemed quite suspicious to carry two mysterious items with the same effect, so he had to express his own plans.
"Don't mention the Scroll of Oath." The apprentice tried to change the subject, "The 'Confessions' is still in the hands of the White Envoy. What does the Tower plan to do with it?"
"That depends on the master's wishes. Didn't you ask him before leaving?"
"The time is too short, I don't have time to say more." Joey is very aware of the twists and turns of the confession, and it is unlikely that the Black Knight will have any idea. Although the Gospels have some connection with the parchments, they are incomplete and have not yet shown any mysterious effect. To the messengers, they must be better than nothing. "What we talked about was the White Night War...and the messenger."
"This is an ancient position." Sauron was not very satisfied with the prophet's arrangement, but no one cared about the opinions of a Night Whispering Ring. "It has a long and glorious history...and has been abandoned for many years. When did the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have enough manpower to allocate idle posts?"
"That has nothing to do with me now. When I return to Brumnot, I have to take the graduation examination of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs." At least I don't have to worry about the Fire Trial.
Uriel is naturally more concerned about the White Night War than the skills test, because the latter will really kill people, and has already caused heavy casualties. Those soldiers who were wiped out in smoke on the island, the tortured souls and the corpses of the cauldron... As expected, the horrific scenes of the "Aether Abyss" have been a frequent visitor in his nightmares recently. But fortunately, he only had to worry about his dreams.
"Ordinary messengers can't test your fighting skills. Most of the time, the master will come in person," Sauron wrote maliciously. "You can look forward to it"
He doesn't have time. Uriel was sure of this. Although the apprentice has no idea how to restore the mystery. The gap between the Sky Realm and the Ring Level is a world of difference, which involves the profound knowledge of fire and magic. He took advantage of Dalton's maintenance of weapons to go to the library to search for information, and finally came to the conclusion that his foundation Knowledge really needs to be filled in completely. Even searching for information is not a pleasant process. When Uriel walked past the row of bookshelves that recorded the most secret stories and knowledge, two-thirds of the books tried to bite off his fingers. Fortunately, he is an apprentice in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and these mysterious items are easier to deal with than the enemy.
Aiken woke up quickly when Dalton knocked on the door. While Uriel was busy feeding the baby alchemy potion and changing clothes, he asked Sauron to respond to the night elves. The smell after opening the door was not very pleasant, so Zhuoer stood at the door and looked around, not intending to come in.
"Where's the maid?" Dalton asked.
"Gone." In fact, she was driven away by Uriel. Nightingales are everywhere in Iron Claw City. Most of them are trained mysterious creatures, but a few are still mortals. It would have been easy for the Foreign Office's emissaries to let their guard down, but not Uriel and his Tome of Oaths. "Maybe I was scared away by you."
"I am not interested in mortal life." The night elves' only target was DeWitt Hearn. As a result, they consulted an astrologer in Croyta, only to find that the Earl of the Bay had left Beacon Town before the "Unicorn" returned, and his current whereabouts were unknown.
"The Earl of the Bay is also a mortal," the apprentice pointed out.
"Is it necessary to pick out the words? We are all mortals at the feet of your goddess."
"But we are interested in our own lives, right?" Uriel finally took care of Aiken. He refused to stay in the basket, and the apprentice was so overwhelmed that he had to let him continue to sleep. "As we agreed, Dalton, you are responsible for protecting Aiken and Manai and staying as far away from the battlefield as possible."
"Clearly." Zhuoer twisted his eyebrows, as if this request was too much, but this serious attitude was very reassuring. If it were Roma, even if she would be more interested in Aiken, Uriel would not be sure to leave the mother and son to her. "I still don't think you're doing us any good by wasting your time like this. Why not just go to the monastery?"
"The wizards of the school will rest in the church at night. Shania Ravenus left a few wizards to guard their staircase." They couldn't tell Dalton that they just hit a wall in the church last night, and Uriel still wanted to I had a nightmare all night. "Spiritual Vision" allows him to obtain information without alerting others. The only drawback is that it consumes too much magic power.
He handed Aiken over to Dalton.
Night elves had no special feelings for human cubs, but Dalton handled them gently, as if he were treating a thin piece of frost falling on the glass.
"Do you like children?" His behavior was quite funny. Before meeting Dalton on Gray-winged Bird Island, Drow's impression on Uriel was almost like that of wanted criminals in the traditional sense. They are extremely vicious, cunning and insidious, and their thinking logic is different from ordinary people, or they are simply the Necromancer New Someone like Earl. This is a stereotype brought about by rumors. Uriel is more accustomed to relying on his eyes and the scroll of oaths to judge whether others are trustworthy, but he still finds it interesting when this impression strongly conflicts with the facts he has witnessed.
"No more annoying than marriage." Zhuoer replied as he disappeared into the shadows, "He's not a threat anyway."
"You didn't dare to enter the house just now," Sauron pointed out.
"Well, sometimes it does," he admitted. "Don't open the door for me next time I'm changing the baby. Can't you astrologers predict when this kid is going to wet his pants?"
The courtyard was immersed in a peaceful morning mist, and the heads stuck outside the door disappeared. Coming here again, Uriel could not pretend that he was still bringing happiness to these girls. He convinced himself that this was a necessary process, just like when war comes, you either compromise or resist, and the result is the same: most people die for lies, illusions and slogans, while a few people are thrown away without knowing anything in their dreams. life. A bad debt. No one can figure it out. From this point of view, Croita's policy of avoiding war may have its own reasons.
He didn't intend to reveal anything, but Nanna's ending made him change his mind. If the outcome is destined to be unchangeable, then at least the truth should be made clear to people. I am not a knight of Gaia.
The process of sneaking into the monastery did not disturb any guards, only the pigeons were frightened by the invisible magic power. Dalton explained to him the principles of "Shadow Attack", about elements and mystery. Uriel never considered these things when using the "Absolute Command". He only needed to read the "instructions" - that is, the magic spell, and the mystery would be realized by the magic.
The same goes for "Absolute Directive". When Uriel explained his magic and profession to Dalton, he also expressed that it was difficult to understand. But no matter what, when Uriel used the combination of "shadow strike" and divine magic to enter the monastery silently, the night elves could only accept his explanation.
They searched along the corridors, searched the auditorium and the backyard, and moved stealthily among the swirling steam. The nuns wore uniform long linen skirts, which slightly made it more difficult to find people. Soon Uriel realized that among these unfamiliar faces, there was no one he was looking for.
"The church has probably sent people here." He guessed, "They have replaced all the clergy here."
Dalton brought new information: "I heard the dean talking secretly with a nightingale in the auditorium. They mentioned wizards and ladders. Maybe the wizards of the school sent them to Iron Claw City...or somewhere else. .We'd better ask."
