At 8 o'clock in the evening, a baby's cry came from the greenhouse. The vampire members waiting outside the door all showed expressions of joy and breathed a sigh of relief.
In the courtyard, Mavi, who heard the cry of the baby, walked into the black stone monastery and came to the greenhouse door. He happened to see Dr. Agata walking out with a medicine box, looking very tired.
"Father." Dr. Agata nodded to Mavey: "It's a girl."
"Well, thank you for your hard work. Let's go to Dino to reimburse the remuneration. Don't say much about other things."
"Yes, I know."
After completing his mission, Dr. Agata left the monastery with the medicine box. Mavie and Edward entered the room and saw Louise holding the baby on the bed.
At this moment, Louise's forehead was wet with sweat, but her face was full of soft smile, and she gently patted the crying baby in her arms. Jielan, who was sitting next to it, had the same expression.
"Father, it's a girl!" Seeing Ma Wei, Jie Lan said excitedly: "It's a girl! I have always wanted a daughter! Today my dream has come true!"
Ma Wei smiled and did not tell the truth that Edward had hidden, even if he did, it would not be now.
Jerran held the baby wrapped in a towel in front of Mavie and said with a smile: "Lois and I have already thought about calling her Lucy, Lucy Edwards!"
"What a good name." Ma Wei said sincerely.
Lucy is an authentic Windsor name, which means someone who brings light and wisdom, full of sunshine and hope. Just from this name, you can see how much Jielan and Louise love this newborn baby girl. Now, Lucy is like a beam of light, illuminating their tortuous life.
In the swaddle, the baby girl with wrinkled skin was crying loudly. But strangely, when Mawei took her from Jielan's hand, the baby girl's crying suddenly dropped and became quiet, and she fell asleep soon.
"Father, please baptize Lucy yourself."
"good."
Today, Ma Wei is no longer the little priest he was back then. He is now a veritable pope. Standing at the pinnacle of secular power, having a baby baptized by the pope himself is a privilege in itself.
Using the hot water prepared in advance in the room, Mavey held a simple christening ceremony for Lucy. The newly born Lucy was no different from an ordinary baby, but...
Everyone knows that Lucy is far from what she seems.
If nothing else, she will become one of the most powerful competitors for the future Lord of the Blood Clan, and even Edward has high hopes for her.
Ma Wei gently opened Lucy's eyelids and found that there was a golden light surging under her dark blue eyes. This was a symbol of strength. Lucy's body definitely had the blood of the vampire family flowing.
"Jie Lan, about returning to human form..."
"Father, I just figured it out." Jie Lan interrupted Ma Wei and said sincerely: "I wanted Lucy to become a human before, but I was afraid that she would be a monster when she was born. Louise and I both Hopefully she can grow up like a normal child, and now she’s healthy and that’s enough.”
How could a baby with vampire power be unhealthy?
Jielan's worries were definitely unnecessary. Although Lucy could not be considered a human being, the power lurking in her body did bring her a strong body and keep her away from diseases.
Looking at the sleeping Lucy, Edward suddenly said: "Let me give her a gift."
"Master, you..." Jie Lan hesitated.
"Don't worry, it's not a bad gift." Edward stroked Lucy's little head, and a few drops of blood seeped out from his palm, melting into Lucy's body: "This is my gift, it will protect her and allow her to grow up safely. "
After returning the baby to Jielan, Mawei was temporarily relieved, but he did not relax.
Next, they will embark on the road back to the Kingdom of Windsor.
The distant royal capital of London, the city of mist, the base camp of the three goddesses of destiny...
There is another turmoil. It is by no means an easy task to overthrow the rule of the Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny. Ma Wei is not too sure and can only take one step at a time.
.................................................................
October 30, Mosk.
The sky was gloomy, with leaden gray clouds pressing firmly above the city, making people breathless. On the streets, the cold wind rolled up the fallen leaves, and pedestrians came and went, having put on thick cotton-padded jackets.
In St. Basil's Cathedral, Mavey was making final confirmations before departure in the living room.
"Christopher, keep this oracle silkworm."
The firelight from the fireplace illuminated the side of Mavey's face. He took off the black bottle from his neck and handed it to Christopher: "If there is any emergency, use this to contact him."
Yunia, who wears the Mithril tag, cannot use her power easily. In other words, although she can receive the prayers of believers, she cannot respond to them, because once she responds, it will destroy the realm of the Mithril tag.
Infusing power into the mithril tag can create a shielding field that is not perceived by the gods, but this shielding field can only protect the inside, like a pot lid, blocking the steam in the pot.
The oracle, an extraordinary means of long-distance communication, cannot be blocked by the mithril tag, which is why Mavey handed over the Council of the Gods to Christopher.
"Dino, I will use the Council of the Gods to deliver the message. I will ask you to control the transportation of the necessary materials."
Ma Wei has already made rigorous plans for what he will do and what identity he will take after returning to the Kingdom of Windsor, and all the supplies he needs will be provided by Dino.
Not long ago, Laiwen, Edward, Rokin, Babas, and Saka teamed up to eliminate other extraordinary races in the Romanov Kingdom, completed the internal unification of the kingdom, and eliminated the obvious threat.
The Aurora Society, which united many extraordinary races, was unprecedentedly powerful. It almost swept all the way. Those extraordinary races that "occupied the mountain as kings" were completely defeated. They died and escaped. There were only a few neutral extraordinary races. Left behind.
Regarding neutrality, Ma Wei did not implement an iron-blooded policy. The truth he believed in allowed different voices to exist. Speaking in one voice was not the truth and betrayed the truth.
Seek common ground while reserving differences.
After eliminating the extraordinary races, the Church of Truth and other extraordinary races launched a large-scale investigation activity and began to explore the raw materials of potions owned by the Romanov Kingdom. This is a long process that cannot be completed overnight.
Dino, who stayed in the Romanov Kingdom, would send a list of information about these potion raw materials together with the goods to support him from behind.
"Salina, please train the members of the Aurora Society that I selected, and then send them to the Kingdom of Windsor in batches to join me."
"I know, Father."
Ma Wei, Yunia, Lai Wen, Edward, Daniel, and Fat Orange Xiaohei are the first group of members to return to the Kingdom of Windsor. After they have established a foothold in the royal capital of London, members of the Aurora Society will arrive in batches and lurk. In the dark, they gathered into a force that cannot be underestimated.
In addition to these, there is also good news recently - a large amount of catnip has been dried.
The catmint planted at the beginning of the year ushered in a bumper harvest at the end of summer. This year was a good year. After picking and drying, Ma Wei gave it to the pharmacist to grind it into powder and make it into the shape of a small pill. He sealed it with a wax pill and was fascinated by it. Cat.
With Catnip, Fat Orange will definitely make a bigger splash in the capital!
Everything was ready. In the warm living room, Mavey picked up the teacup, blew away the steaming white air, and took a sip: "Dino, Christopher, Salina... I will leave the Romanov Kingdom to you. You guys, you can make your own decisions if anything happens, and if you encounter difficulties, just contact me."
"Um!"
Dino pushed up his silver-rimmed glasses and said with a serious expression: "Father, after you return to the Kingdom of Windsor, you can contact my nephew Aaron. The Pluto Chamber of Commerce has a deep network of relationships in various countries, and there are also responsible persons in London. He will definitely be able to help you."
"The Pluto Chamber of Commerce has probably been secretly monitored." Ma Wei shook his head: "The information on the main members of the Church of Truth has long been collected by other churches and kingdoms. The Pluto Chamber of Commerce was created by Dino. Yes, it will definitely attract prying eyes."
"The reason why the Kingdom of Windsor and the Church of the Three Destinies have been slow to take action against the Pluto Chamber of Commerce is to keep them, play a long game, and catch big fish."
Dino nodded slowly, his expression becoming more serious: "Yes, the Pluto Chamber of Commerce must be under surveillance, but the personal network the Chamber of Commerce has is extraordinary. It would be a pity to give up like this..."
Dino Pluto, the famous gray wolf Dino in the West Island, is also a well-known grocer in the capital of London. His ability to reach this point depends not only on his strength, but also on his connections.
The development policy of the Pluto Chamber of Commerce is to serve the nobility and gentry class with precise positioning. No matter what these nobles and gentry want, Dino can get it. This is a manifestation of strength.
Coupled with many factors such as Dino never selling defective products, keeping customer confidentiality, and keeping his word, he has a good reputation among the upper class circles, and many nobles and gentry have dealings with him.
Perhaps because of this, the Kingdom of Windsor did not take action against the Pluto Chamber of Commerce after Dino left.
Gray Wolf Dino....
Mastered the secrets of too many nobles and gentry.
Now, these secrets all fall into Ma Wei's hands.
"I will use other methods to contact the Pluto Chamber of Commerce and try not to arouse other people's suspicions." Mawe said: "Safety is the first priority."
After finishing speaking, Ma Wei put down the teacup, glanced at everyone's faces, and said in a deep voice: "We will set off tomorrow morning and leave quietly. Only you and Your Majesty Katerina know the news of our departure. Remember, The news must not be leaked!"
"yes!"
.................................................
The next day, it’s 5 a.m.
The sky was dark and gloomy, and the streets paved with stone bricks were wet. It seemed that a light rain had just fallen. A faint mist had risen on the streets. There were almost no pedestrians on the streets. Surprisingly, there were no police patrols today. .
Gulu gulu....
There was the sound of rolling wheels in the mist, and the dim yellow light was like the eyes of a giant dragon. After looking carefully, I realized that they were two four-wheel carriages driving side by side, with kerosene lamps hanging on the fronts, driving on the deserted streets.
Not long after, two four-wheeled carriages arrived at Mosk Central Station. The doors opened, and four men, two cats, and a little girl got off the carriages one after another.
The leader was a young man with brown hair, who looked to be in his mid-twenties, with a thin face, a high nose, and deep eye sockets. He had no beard and a pair of dark green eyes that were calm and indifferent, like a pampered gentleman.
The little girl standing next to him also has brown hair, tied in two ponytails, has dark green eyes, a round face, and a few freckles. She is inconspicuous in a crowd and will be forgotten at a glance. .
The three men behind the brown-haired young man, one holding a dark red walnut cane, looked to be about twenty years old, wearing a top hat, a white shirt and a tuxedo, speaking in a crappy Windsor with a Frederick accent. language.
The other one had his hair slicked back. He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with fair skin. He wore a knight's rapier at his waist. He looked arrogant and looked displeased at everyone, as if he owed him a lot of money. He was full of words. Frederician is occasionally mixed with a few Windsor words with non-standard pronunciation, and they are all curses.
】
The last one is younger and slightly older, a middle-aged man with a Dr. Barr beard. He looks like he is in his forties. His hair is neatly combed and meticulous. He is wearing a butler's uniform, white gloves, and holding a few coins in his hand. A box followed silently behind.
"I'm talking about boss, isn't it too weird for you to set a position for me?" The young man holding a walnut cane muttered: "What do you mean by a gangster who wants to be a high-class gentleman? My gentlemanly temperament is innate ! It’s not disguised!”
"That's right, teacher!" the little boy with his head tilted up complained: "He is originally a gangster, so it's okay to play his true colors, but I am the crown prince! I am not some arrogant and reckless man who fantasizes about playing knight games all day long!"
"Felix, Jonas, the disguise has begun. From now on, you will call me big brother in Germanic." The brown-haired young man at the front looked back at the middle-aged man with Dr. Barr's beard: " You see, Yannick didn’t complain about the butler status I arranged for him, so you two are still not happy?”
"..."
"..."
In order to better disguise, Mawei spent time to fully package the first group of members to go to the Kingdom of Windsor. His name was Nicholas von Manstein, a Junker noble who lived in decline. In a remote countryside in Saxony, their family was poor when they were young. They were deprived of their aristocratic title and were extremely poor. Their parents died early, leaving the three brothers to depend on each other.
There are three brothers in the Manstein family. The eldest son Nicholas means "victorious people", the second son Felix means "lucky one", and the third son Jonas means "peace-loving person". Behind them, they all represent different meanings.
The name Yannick means 'God's gift' and 'God has shown favor to me', which is also profound.
Nicholas is Mavi, Felix is Lavan, Jonas is Daniel, Yannick is Edward...
Mavey thought about Junia's pseudonym for a long time, and finally gave her Emma, a common name in Frederick's Kingdom, which means "all" and "comprehensive". If translated according to Hebrew, it means "God". Be with us'.
Fat Orange and Xiao Hei don't have pseudonyms. Although they will live with Ma Wei and others, they will not appear in front of other people, so there is no need to arrange pseudonyms. However, Yunia likes to call them "Donuts" and "Donuts". 'Chocolate' is also a good temporary pseudonym.
"Remember, let yourself really be a pretender and don't reveal your identity. I believe you can do it."
Ma Wei picked up Yunia and said with a smile:
"Now, it's time for us to set off."
