Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 194
Perhaps because the corrupt Bishop Miller had been eliminated, Klein and the others did not encounter any obstacles from monsters on their way back.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally saw the pier, and saw the White Agate with candlelight shining through it.

Klein held the blood-stained cane and guarded below until everyone boarded the boat before jumping back to the deck in a few steps.

Klein took out a gold coin without concealment, and read in a low voice:

"There is danger on the White Agate."

Ding!
The gold coin flew up, turned down again, and landed in Klein's palm with his head facing down.

This means no.

Klein didn't relax in the slightest, but he still nodded slightly to Captain Ireland calmly.

Ireland also breathed a sigh of relief, but just to be on the safe side, he summoned the second officer, the navigator, the gunner and other subordinates, and asked them to organize the sailors, adjust the artillery, and get ready to set sail at any time.

Although there are no small safety hazards in leaving the port at night, if things deteriorate significantly, it will be the best way to avoid danger.

Hibbert shrugged, indicating that he didn't know the answer either.

"That's it."

Audrey frowned slightly, and said with some hesitation:
"Business trip? Or go to Intis? So suddenly?"

Earl Hall thought for a while and said with a smile, "It just so happens that I also have some friends in Intis... Well, how about it, I will write you a letter later, if you meet in Intis Trouble, you can take the letter to Suhit Bank for help, they will not refuse."

Intis and Loen are often married, and many nobles are relatives, especially the followers of steam.

"Hum~"

Earl Hall also frowned, obviously hesitating.

Although she is a spectator, she is a mid-sequence Extraordinary who is about to be promoted to Sequence 7 from Sequence 6.But she is also the noble lady Audrey, and occasionally she will be a little self-willed in front of her father and brother. This is very reasonable, isn't it?
-
On January 1, Backlund Railway Station.

Ember didn't say anything, but looked at the girl in front of the window, and asked:
"Audrey, what do you think?"

Audrey clenched her pink fist and waved it excitedly.

Audrey sorted out her language and whispered:
"Ember, I always feel that Deacon Ikanser seems a little weird."

Even taking advantage of the recent east wind, Earl Hall took the opportunity to acquire a lot of shares. He is now the third largest shareholder, and even has faint signs of becoming the second largest shareholder!

But this does not prevent him from feeling pain about the price of this dog, since he would not buy such a dog anyway.

Audrey blinked and said seriously:
"Just stay for a day, right? Let's stay together, I just want to spend a day in Constant and Tilis. But..."

Hibbert took a sip of the mellow creamy soup and said, "If you go to the Kingdom of Intis, try not to deal with the believers of the Eternal Sun, they are not friendly to the believers of the night."

Upon hearing this, Audrey immediately cast a look of hope and expectation at Ember.

Audrey thought for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Annie, does Conston have any property that belongs to me?"

"If you want to go, go."

After all, he is just an ordinary Earl, but Ember is a powerful Extraordinary.

Glancing at the snacks on the table in front of Ember, she added, "Well~, the ones for Susie, she's a bit hungry."

She was looking at the scenery outside the window, and a big golden retriever dog was squatting obediently beside the shoes with ribbon roses.

And wearing a beige court dress, sitting on a single sofa chair by the window, maintaining an elegant sitting posture, holding black tea with both hands, and taking a sip from time to time.

Earl Hall fell into thought, this is indeed a good idea.Ember is not only Audrey's teacher, responsible for teaching her knowledge about the extraordinary world, but also Audrey's personal bodyguard, responsible for protecting her safety.

Of course, although the two parties are relatives, they belong to two countries after all, and their relationship may not be very deep.Therefore, Earl Hall did not ask Ember to ask them for help. These people may not be useful to Suhit Bank.

"it is good."

"Father."

And Ember's friends are not too weak compared to strength, and can protect Audrey's safety.

Ember nodded slightly, but did not refuse.

"Please come in."

And this also applies to the Church of the Eternal Sun, a sect that is friendly with the Church of God of War and hostile to the Church of Storms.This means that the Church of Evernight is an 'enemy of a friend' and a friend of an enemy' to the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun.

And Backlund Bank is one of the seven major banks, and the largest among them!
The largest shareholder of the bank is the royal family, and Earl Hall is the fourth largest shareholder——

"Yes, Miss Audrey. Earl Hall is the second largest shareholder of the Conston Coal and Steel Consortium. There are also some subsidiary industries under his name, which were assigned to your name when you became an adult."

The maid who opened the door for him was wearing a black and white maid outfit.

"That's it."

dong dong dong~!

"Okay, then don't bother."

The Church of the God of War has the best relationship with the Church of the Mother Earth, and the next level is the Church of the Eternal Sun, which is hostile to the Church of Evernight.And perhaps because of the 'hate the house and the crow', the relationship between the Church of God of War and the Church of Storms is also very general——

Under Danitz's weird eyes, he entered the bathroom, and performed another divination above the gray mist——

Although Audrey could not inherit the status of the second largest shareholder, the property left to her by Earl Hall alone was terrifying enough!
Ember saw that Ikanser seemed a little embarrassed, and opened his mouth to make a relief:

"Deacon Ikanser, don't worry about us, you can go about your own affairs."

After a pause, Earl Hall smiled again, "Of course, the premise is that you don't mind taking her words, Ash."

Audrey hummed a happy little song softly, feeling quite happy.

"Wang?"

This finally made Klein feel a little relieved. At the same time, he decided to contact Ember and convey his experience to him in a prayerful way.What happened to Bancy Island made Klein feel a strong sense of crisis. This island is definitely more dangerous than he imagined. Anyway, he will never set foot on this island again no matter what!
But what Klein didn't know was that Ember was having a dinner at Hall's luxury villa at the moment.

But the White Agate is safe and there will be no danger.

Hibbert frowned, while Audrey showed a joyful expression.

Ikanser, with messy hair, and several members of the Heart of Mechanics walked into the No. 3 car full of luxury boxes, and found their own rooms according to the tickets.

As a Sequence Nine who has just become a Extraordinary, how can he know the secrets of the two churches?
Hibbert solemnly exhorted:

"I..." Hibbert paused for a moment.

Annie also thought about it, and gave a serious answer:

Hibbert frowned, and reprimanded, "It will take at least four or five days on the way from Backlund to Trier, the capital of the Republic of Intis. Can you bear it on the train?"

The results were mixed:

A well-trained hound costs between £450 and £700.

"Bullshit."

Yikanser, who was rescued, immediately breathed a sigh of relief, gave a slight salute, and stepped back to leave the room.

After Ikanser finished speaking, he looked at Ember and stood there waiting for his answer.

Entering the box, Ikanser saw the three people in the room at a glance——

She was just curious about the trip.

Earl Hall noticed the eyes of the eldest son, shook his head slightly, and said with emotion:
"Audrey has grown up, so she should go out more and learn more."

The Conston Coal and Steel Community controls almost all the coal and steel industries in this area, and also monopolizes orders from the military—

It's not that I envy it can squat at the girl's feet as a dog, but I envy its price——

Eternal Blazing Sun's venerable name includes 'Immortal Light', which is exactly the opposite of the Evernight Goddess.

Ikanser glanced at the golden retriever with some envy.

Audrey suddenly asked:
"Annie, can you go get me some refreshments?"

Ember nodded slightly, and then said: "Earl Hall, I have a friend who is also an outstanding Extraordinary. During my business trip to Intis, she may be able to teach Audrey instead of me. a period of time."

For example, the Church of Evernight has the best relationship with the Church of Storms, followed by the Church of Steam, so these three churches can openly preach in the Loen Kingdom.The next level is the Church of the Mother of the Earth. The Church of the Mother of the Earth can preach in Loen, but it can only maintain a small number of churches.

He quickly walked out of the room again, and knocked on the door of Box No. 1 marked on the door plate.

"Roughly how long will it take?"

"If it is a step ahead, I will send a letter to Trier to let them prepare in advance."

Earl Hall pondered for two seconds and asked:

Of course, this may also be because there are irascible brothers on both sides.

In the Kingdom of Loen, followers of Eternal Blazing Sun will also be treated as heretics!
Audrey suddenly asked curiously:

Hibbert didn't react for a while, and then realized that she was talking about the Republic of Intis.

"Great!"

Of course, the same is true for the Church of the God of War.

Ember also put down the newspaper in her hand at this time, and asked with some doubts:
"What's the matter? Deacon Ikanser."

With the blessing of this dual identity, naturally one cannot expect the Church of the Eternal Sun to have a friendly attitude towards the Church of Evernight.Although unlike the believers of the Lord of Storms, they would be treated as heretics in the Kingdom of Intis, it is inevitable that the believers of the night will be discriminated against and targeted.

Annie complied respectfully, turned and left the room without any excuses.

"Of course I don't mind."

Ember caught the girl's sight and shrugged helplessly:

After a long silence, Earl Hall slowly said:

A girl's brisk voice came from inside the room, but Ikanser did not open the door and enter.

But in all fairness, can he really protect Audrey's safety?Following him is actually not as safe as following Ember.

Ikanser retracted his gaze and explained:
"It's like this. It takes about four or five days to travel from Backlund to Trier, the capital of the Republic of Intis. On the way, you will pass through the counties of Ahowa, Jianhai and West Vilas in the Kingdom of Backlund. .When passing through Conston and Tilis in the Republic of Intis, we may need to stay for a day each to deal with some things. Will you stop and wait for us at that time, or go to Trier first?"

Wearing a dress that has never changed for thousands of years, sitting on the long sofa near the aisle, flipping through today's newspaper while eating the embers of snacks.

"Perhaps there are also doctrinal reasons?"

As long as there are new orders for the Intersea Fleet or coastal fortifications, they will definitely be handed over to the Conston Coal and Steel Community.As the second largest shareholder of this giant enterprise, Earl Hall's influence in Conston can be seen.

"Ash."

"It's an urgent task, and we'll take the nearest steam train tomorrow morning."

Ember is cutting a piece of medium-rare steak smeared with black pepper sauce at the moment. It falls on the porcelain plate, steaming a little, and as the knife cuts, it reveals the side that still has myoglobin residue.

"maybe."

"Oh? Why? I only know that the Church of the Eternal Sun and the Church of Storms are hostile to each other."

The fact that Suhit Bank can be compared with Backlund Bank, one of the seven largest banks in the Loen Kingdom, shows its strength.As for the "friend" Earl Hall said, they are actually distant relatives of the Hall family——

Susie tilted her head in doubt, her tail wagging slightly, is she hungry?
Actually not very hungry.

Earl Hall did not speak, but he also acquiesced to the eldest son's explanation.

"The Republic of Intis..."

"About half a month."

There is still danger lurking in Bancy Island, and the danger has changed from 'not big' to 'big', which means there is danger to his life.

On the one hand, Audrey is an adult, she is entitled to do what she likes to do.

Conston itself is also one of the most famous heavy industrial cities in the Kingdom of Loen. In order to guard against the Feysac Empire in the north, there are not only complete shipyards and coastal fortifications, but also an inter-sea force permanently stationed in Conston. The fleet can be described as impenetrable!

Audrey blinked, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, "He will protect me, or do you mean that you don't trust Ash?"

But on the other hand, Audrey was his daughter after all, and in his heart she was still a little girl who couldn't grow up and needed the protection of her parents.His rationality told him to let go, but his sensibility felt that Audrey should stay by his side, which was safer.

Ember pondered for two seconds, then said slowly:
"It's normal to be weird, he's gay."

Hibbert's expression suddenly became weird:
"Friend? Her?"

"Ok."

Ember was a little surprised, and asked:

The corners of Ikanser's eyes twitched slightly, once again feeling the difference in the world.

Anne is Audrey's personal maid, and she will also serve as her housekeeper when she becomes an adult. As an excellent maid raised by the Audrey family since childhood, Anne is fully capable of serving as a housekeeper.

On the other hand, the Church of the God of War, the relationship between the Church of Evernight and it can be said to be incompatible.

Although this amount of money was nothing to a deacon, Ikanser's weekly salary was at least a hundred pounds, which was not low.

For example, Earl Hall is a well-known nobleman!
Constant is the capital of Midsea County, also known as the Windy City.This is an area where the coal and steel industry is extremely developed, ranking among the top three cities in the Loen Kingdom.

But you must know that in the Kingdom of Loen, the method of centralized settlement of bills is used to handle the transfer business between banks in the same city.But unlike their counterparts in the Republic of Intis, not all banks here can join the ranks, and the seven largest banks firmly hold this right, so they are also called settlement banks, allowing other banks to join the ranks. Banks can only be attached to them.

Audrey nodded thoughtfully. In fact, there are quite a lot of properties under her name, and she rarely counts them in detail.

Although he is a middle-order Extraordinary and a deacon of the Church of Steam, he is already a high-paying person, but he is still more than one and a half star behind compared with the real great nobles.

"In short, in the Republic of Intis, everything must be careful."

"I do not know."

Similarly, don't expect the Church of the Eternal Solari to be treated very well in the Church of Evernight——

Because in the next second, a maid pushed open the door of the box and respectfully invited him in.

"What's more, God knows what will happen along the way, what should I do if I encounter danger?"

He forked a piece of beef and stuffed it into his mouth. The dim yellow light painted a warm color on the artistic coffee table and exquisite tableware, and the smell of fried steak seemed to permeate. The steaks from the pasture are quite delicious.

Hibbert shook his head and explained, "Perhaps it is because of the Church of Storms that the Church of the Eternal Sun is also hostile to the Church of Evernight, which is also preaching in the Loen Kingdom."

Woo!Woo--!
The head of the steam locomotive, emitting a lot of smoke, dragged one car after another, and drove into Backlund Station with a bang, before coming to a stop from fast to slow.

"Earl Hall, I have to go on a business trip to the Republic of Intis in two days, so I may not be able to continue to perform my duties during this time."

"Where?"

The reason why he dared to say that was because Earl Hall himself was not only the fourth largest shareholder of Backlund Bank, but also the third largest shareholder of Suhit Bank.To a certain extent, Suhit Bank can be compared with Backlund Bank!

Audrey muttered this word in a low voice, and suddenly a strong impulse surged up in her heart, and whispered:
"Well, can I go with you too?"

Taking advantage of the gap between the dinner party, Ember slowly said:

After hearing the girl's inquiry, Ember briefly explained:

The seven Orthodox churches are also divided into different factions, which can be seen from the countries where they are located.

"Gay?" Audrey blinked curiously.

Being hit by the huge surprise, she almost couldn't control her emotions and almost jumped up excitedly.Although she was worried about the image of a lady and endured it, her white crystal jade feet also swayed gently in the air, revealing her true inner feelings.

"Isn't there Ash?"

In the dining room, Earl Hall's family sat around the dining table, and the maids were busy putting delicacies on the table.

As for why there is no first mate, it is because the first mate has unfortunately died in the church.

Klein turned around and returned to the cabin, tactfully rejecting the others' thanks and invitations on the grounds that he needed to rest.

Ikanser got ready to salute, but not long after the train left the platform.

Although he felt that he probably didn't need the help of Suhit Bank, but he would not be ungrateful if it was a kindness.

As for danger?Wouldn't it be dangerous to stay in Backlund?
Even returning to the family fief would still be dangerous, but it would be safer to have Ash's protection.

"He likes men." Ember explained concisely.

"..."

Audrey opened her mouth slightly, and Susie, who was squatting at her feet, also opened her mouth wide.

Obviously, the master and servant were stunned, which was completely beyond their common sense.
