It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

After showing the coat of arms and pass, the carriage drove into the Winter City.

The Snowflake Clock in the center of the city can be seen clearly from any corner of the city. The Frost Moon is now at the eleven o'clock direction of the long hand. In just one more day, it will move to the center.That was the brightest night of the Frostsand Moon, and the Snow King's birthday.

Under the guidance of the messenger, the noble Lily Bell and her entourage were arranged in the largest hotel in the city.

As a personal entourage, although she does not have a title, Ella was still arranged in Ashley's room.

The latter's arm has fully recovered, and Ayla is trying to configure other potions to fill her excessive physical strength.

After dropping a drop of essential oil into the crucible, a large amount of white smoke rose up, and the originally bubbling liquid calmed down, and the color was like a large piece of congealed emerald.

Ashley was watching the whole process, she was very curious about what the ointment that had tortured herself so powerless was boiled out of.

"It looks pretty normal. I thought there would be some lizards, scorpions and the like inside."

"I can add that too if you want."

Ashley Chevalier was speechless.

Ella looked a little careless, looking through the white mist on the liquid and looking at the entire city through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel.

Unconsciously, she also imitated Lily's tone and started humming, but the lyrics were unclear:

“No matter where you want to go, you’re still on top of the snow-capped mountains.

Wherever you are,...is still your homeland..."

Chapter 19 Interview

The bell in the city center rang, and some unknown white birds in Winter City were startled, flapping their wings and passing the floor-to-ceiling windows.

There are some shriveled plant seeds on the windowsill, where the birds often stop to eat.

Ella, on the other hand, has been tossed around by Ashley like a dress-up doll.

In the words of the other party, this is for necessary etiquette. Ella will accompany Lily Bell, the only daughter of Earl Winter, to meet His Majesty the Snow King as a retainer, so she cannot dress casually.

Based on her proficiency, Ella maliciously speculated about Lily Bell's previous daily life.

Ashley finally chose a black ancient ceremonial dress with a white ruff collar and a waistband for her. Although young girls in Winter City rarely choose dark ceremonial dresses, this is indeed the most suitable match at the moment.

The celebration will officially begin at [-]:[-] dusk and continue until dawn the next day.

The Winter City has already had a festive atmosphere a few days ago. Six-pointed snowflake flags symbolizing the royal family can be seen everywhere on the streets. They are hung on street lamps or other eye-catching places, fluttering in the wind.

During this period of time, a large number of outsiders or returning travelers came to Wendell, and the streets were very lively, and there were vendors setting up stalls in the early days.

Commonly seen on the stalls are some handicrafts made of ice and snow, including statues of the Snow King, and ice and snow models of some landmark buildings.In addition, there are snacks or fresh fruits covering the characteristics of all parts of the snow country.

The fountain in the square is filled with the unique sweet aroma of sparkling wine. I don’t know why. It’s not cold in Wendel City, but the ice and snow show no signs of melting.

Ella felt that such a powerful Snow King, or the emissary of the great God Nodens, should know how to get her back.

Although they have no reason to help themselves, this is indeed an opportunity not to be missed.

Before noon, the envoys of the nobles from other places also arrived in Wendel, and they appeared in various ways.

There are teams that enter the city honestly along the Blue Ice Bridge, such as Lord Anna Amutter, but what they use in their team is not the pony that is common in the Snow Country, but a tall horned deer.

Some of the messengers rode on birds the size of elephants, creatures with red feathers and heads resembling horses.They fell from the sky, but had to stay in front of the city gate at a safe distance, and then honestly entered Wendell from the ground.

The crossbow on the city wall is equipped with arrows that are as thick as an adult's wrist. The arrows that are more than one foot long are twisted and triangular. The cost is extremely expensive, but only one arrow is enough to shoot down this huge strange bird. .

The sky only belongs to the kingship and the gods. Except for the royal knights, only Nodens' envoys are allowed to appear above the royal city.

As time passed, noon had passed, and the messenger who came yesterday reappeared at the hotel. He was dressed a bit too fancy, with white bird feathers and a large number of azure crystals hanging on the long swing of the shawl.

The messenger wears pointed boots that curve upwards, and the crystals on his body shake with each step and make a crisp crashing sound.

He led ten royal knights and escorted Lily Bell, Ashley Chevalier and Ella to the palace.The other accompanying people only need to arrive at the square in front of the palace before the celebration starts according to their preferences.

Before arriving at the palace, Ella saw that marvelous square, which originally seemed to be a large lake, but now it was completely frozen, leaving only a large mirror-like blue.

The center of the square is surrounded by white stones to form a huge flower garden. Although they are rooted on the ice, these white roses will keep blooming all year round.At the four corners of the square are fountains filled with the aroma of sparkling wine.

For these miraculous phenomena, there are two explanations circulated in the winter city Wendel, one is the uniqueness of this mythical city itself, and the other is to explain it with the mighty power of the Snow King.

There's nothing to argue with, both are valid.Emotionally, Ella is willing to believe in the second option. After all, the more powerful the Snow King's magic is, the greater her hope of returning.

Ashley held in both hands a golden casket containing a gift from Lord Winter to the Snow King.During the trip, Ella asked Lily what was inside out of curiosity, but the latter decided to keep it a secret.

Two dark blue carpets are spread from the palace to the stairs in front of the square. The center of the stairs depicts the relief of the founding history of the Kingdom of Snow. Everyone who enters the palace from the square will repeatedly experience this magnificent epic.

The floor of the palace is a smooth marble surface that is as bright as a mirror and can reflect reflections. Guards in silver armor are on both sides, and behind them are the palace ministers in costumes.

Two arc-shaped stairs surround the two sides, forming a second-level space on both sides of the hall.

The space of the palace is extremely wide, the height of the dome reaches nearly a hundred feet, a huge crystal chandelier hangs in the center of the dome, besides, there are platinum-gold candlesticks and platinum-gold metal bars that divide the aisle.

At the end of the palace is an upward staircase. In the center of the staircase is a black stone throne in the shape of ice crystals, with golden patterns inlaid in the gaps in the stone.

A man with a long beard and silver hair whose age cannot be identified sits on the throne. His ears are pointed and slender, and his figure is taller than ordinary humans. Even Adolf's abnormal height is much shorter than him. .

Needless to say, that is the king of the Snow Kingdom.

Standing next to him was a gentle lady, her fingers covered with rings inlaid with precious stones. She should be the court magician Lily Bell mentioned.

The overly fancy-dressed messenger led the three of them to the front of the stairs.

"Your Excellency the Earl of Winter was unable to attend the celebration due to illness, and his only daughter, Lily Bell, was ordered to come to present a congratulatory gift for His Majesty's birthday."

The envoy bowed and stepped aside.

The three of them knelt on one knee on the platform in the middle of the stairs,

The noble lady took the golden box presented by Ashley's hands and brought it to the throne.

The Snow King opened the golden box with great interest, and in the center of the blue velvet was a clear gem the size of half a fist.

When the golden box was opened, Ella noticed a strong fluctuation of magic power, but from this point on, she was sure that the gem was priceless.

"This should be...the mutated brainstem inside the ice dragon's skull."

The lady's eyes narrowed slightly.

The Snow King smiled and placed the box on the arm of the throne.

"This is the largest dragon crystal I have seen in the past 300 years. Winter County's taxes can be reduced by [-]% this year. Mitland Bell is indeed better than the previous Earls of Winter - your name is Lily Bell Come on, how is Mitlan?"

"Thank you for your majesty's concern. My father will recover in a few days."

"Very well, then enjoy today's celebration happily."

The three of them bowed and left.

There seemed to be other nobles who had an audience with them. Ella originally wanted to mention the way to return to her hometown, but Lily gave her a wink. Now is not the time, and she herself understands this very well.

Under the guidance of the envoy, the three of them went to the independent box under the palace terrace. From here, they could easily see the entire square, making it an excellent viewing environment.

Lily handed over a letter to the messenger, which recorded the anomalies of the Frost Plateau and matters related to Ella, which would be delivered to the Snow King at a later time.

Chapter 20 Opening Performance

"His Majesty the Snow King should be able to help you, but you need to fight for it yourself."

After the messenger left, Lily said so.

Ella didn't understand what she meant, or she didn't know how to fight for it.

"Do you know the process of the celebration?"

Ella shook her head.

Lily continued to explain,

"When Wendel's bell rings again, a duel performance between knights and magicians will be held in the center of the square. Nobles from all over the country will exclude representatives, and the winner will have the opportunity to propose to the Snow King a wish that does not violate the laws of our country. , this is considered the opening ceremony of the celebration.”

Ella was stunned, but at the same time felt very awkward.

"Are you asking me to attend the duel as a representative of Winter County, and then make a wish for yourself?"

"You don't need to be ashamed of this. There has never been a strong magician in Winter County. We originally planned to abstain from this game. But then it's up to you. If you lose - ugh"

Lily's words were interrupted by Ella's hug.

"Thank you!"

That was the only thing she could say.

An hour later, the opening ceremony of the ceremony began with the ringing of bells.

boom!

The salute sounded loudly, and the guard of honor of the royal family raised their flags and walked towards both ends of the square. There were circular stone steps around the square, and even civilians could watch the celebration.

Colorful dazzles bloom in the sky, and solemn yet high-spirited music echoes over the entire palace.

The first is the cavaliers' performance, and Ashley Chevalier will appear in the second.

Two knights in plate armor appeared in the center of the square riding armored horses. They each had different emblems printed on their cloaks, which were triangular snowflakes and some kind of small plants.

"The triangular snowflake represents the honorary earl. Although it has the same title as my father, the honorary earl who lives in the royal city does not actually have a territory. You should have seen the small snowflake herald. It is the coat of arms of Viscount Carlodin."

Lily explained to Ella on the sidelines.

The first duel was a horse fight, in which the two knights used ax spears and polearms respectively, and the weapons collided and swung away from each other.

Their riding skills and strength were equal, and the scene fell into a stalemate for a while.

"Betting on Lu Ke, who do you think will win?"

Ella is a complete layman in this regard. She cannot distinguish the advantages and disadvantages of the two knights. She can only judge from the impression that the honorary earl has a higher title and may be able to find excellent warriors.

"The one with the three-edged snowflake cloak, right?"

she said tentatively.

Ashley's voice came from behind,

"I think it's just the opposite. Although the strength of the two knights is almost the same, the Honorable Earl is too competitive. The heavy armor and weapons obviously consume the knight's stamina. The opponent is obviously delaying time, and he is almost out of support. Living."
