Shameless Warlock

"Quillas? Isn't he leaving now?"

　　 Xu Nan couldn't help thinking of Geralt.

　　 "Yes, but this morning he suddenly said that there was an urgent matter. This was also just notified urgently."

　　 Evelyn was also a little confused.

　　 If Quellas wants to get justice for Little Jasmine, then his goal has been achieved.

　　 Mirren is dead, and Little Jasmine uses the blood elves to prove the heroic bloodline of Atsam, and then no one else can intervene in the internal affairs of this family.

　　 With the little Jasmine supported by a strong guy of the level of Quellas, I believe he will soon be able to master the castle in the Coldridge Valley.

　　 "Let's go and see?"

　　 Evelyn simply ate some bread and eggs, and got up to leave.

　　 It seems that she still respects Quellas very much, even if the other party rushes to visit any country at this time is a very rude thing, she also chose to understand and tolerate.

　　 Of course Xu Nan has no opinion.

　　 In fact, he was full before Evelyn poured milk on him.

　　……

　　The meeting with Quellas did not choose to be in a large drawing room, but a smaller study room.

　　 Quellas was already waiting when Evelyn and Xu Nan arrived.

　　 He stood up suddenly and wanted to say something. Seeing Xu Nan was also there, he seemed to hesitate for a while.

　　 "Good morning, Your Royal Highness, and this Mr. Su."

　　 The wording he used was the same as that of the Eastern Kingdom, not the lord of the Icewind.

　　 Xu Nan noticed this.

　　 "Good morning." The two responded politely.

　　 "I have something very important to discuss with you." Quellas looked at Evelyn.

　　 Evelyn winked at the waiter who was still yawning, who hurriedly brought up a pot of hot black tea.

　　 "Mr. Su and I are very good friends. You saw what happened yesterday, so there is nothing he can't know."

　　 Her attitude is very polite, but her words are vaguely condemning Quellas' behavior yesterday.

　　 This size is very good, and he deserves to be a person who grew up in a palace.

　　 Xu Nan didn't say anything interestingly. At this time, he only had to act as a qualified Evelyn's koo-headed sergeant.

　　Quillas was a little surprised.

　　 He pondered for a moment, and after waiting for the waiter to leave, he quickly dropped two barriers of different colors.

　　 One is [Mantra Blocking].

　　 The other one is even more powerful, it turned out to be [Absolutely Secret].

　　 The former is one of the strongest barriers for sound blocking, while the latter is the pinnacle of secret barriers.

　　 It seems that Quellas was well prepared.

　　 Evelyn and Xu Nan both became nervous.

　　Quillas shouldn't be able to do anything to them, but the next thing he wants to say probably involves a lot of big people.

　　 Otherwise, a mantra blocking is more than enough.

　　Only if you are afraid of being noticed by a super existence that you are discussing their names or related content, you will use [Absolute Secret]!

　　 "What happened yesterday, I am really very sorry."

　　Quillas pondered his vocabulary, and his expression was sincere: "I really have no hope of killing Mr. Mirren..."

"This is true."

　　 Evelyn said calmly: "I can understand your apology, but Mirren is dead."

　　 "This has nothing to do with today's affairs, right?"

　　Quillas sighed, "It's a bit related."

　　 "This morning, I received a secret letter. Someone wanted to blackmail me. Their goal was the [Drum of Time] in the hands of Little Jasmine, which is the pocket watch representing the head of the Atsam family."

　　 Blackmail?

　　 Almost at the same time that Quellas said the word, Xu Nan had already guessed a lot of things!

　　 Geralt!

　　The people in the Ninth Manor really kidnapped Geralt to blackmail Geralt?

　　Then the relationship between them is definitely more than just a mentor and apprentice.

　　 Between the electric light and flint, Xu Nan inferred several possibilities.

　　 As expected, Quellas said anxiously:

　　 "They kidnapped a student of mine and used his life as a threat."

　　 "If it were just this kind of kidnapping, I would certainly not come to you for your help."

　　 Having said that, he swallowed, shook his head and said:

　　 "But that student is actually my child. I care about him, but this is not the key to my worry. The key is that the person who does it seems to know everything."

　　 "The relationship between me and that student is not known to me except myself, and even he does not know that I am actually his father. But the person who wrote the blackmail knows this."

　　 "The things I've been worried about finally become reality."

　　 "Recently, I have not only been seriously misled in certain things, but there are people behind me who are closely monitoring my every move with detached patterns and methods..."

　　 Geralt is the child of Quellas.

　　 This answer is a bit unexpected, but it is reasonable.

　　According to Quellas, Geralt's birth was an accident. He didn't even know where the child's mother went or what it came from. He didn't want Geralt to care too much about this, and at the same time, out of consideration of protecting him, concealed the fact that he was Geralt's father.

　　 And after so many years of experience in the Tazar Temple, he found that Geralt had no talent, whether it was divine art or magic, or other aspects.

　　 He is not a good professional, but a very good man.

　　 Geralt is very patient, careful and serious in doing things, without much desire, is a very pure guy.

　　 According to Quellas, he is not suitable for fighting at all.

　　 So under the arrangement of Quellas, Geralt went to Wildfire City and became a peaceful little priest. In fact, there is no problem with Quellas's approach. After more than 20 years have passed, the Geralts are still a low-level magician until middle age, and he has lived well in Wildfire City.

　　Quillas thinks this is the best situation.

　　 But what he didn't expect was that for some reason, he was targeted by people, and those people didn't know how to unearth Geralt's relationship.

　　 It stands to reason that only Quellas knew the fact that Geralt was his child, and he never told anyone else.

　　 This is where Quellas panics and anxious most.

　　 Even if the other party knows such secret information, then his plan must have no chance of winning.

　　 "I can't give them the Drum of Time."

　　 "But I do worry about Geralt's safety again."

　　 "So I can only come to you."

　　Quillas smiled bitterly: "I need something beyond variables. Those guys who are staring at me, standing behind them, may be more than legends."

　　 is more than a legend!

　　 The lethality of this sentence is big enough.

　　 "Is it really green light?"

　　 Xu Nan said silently in his heart.

　　 No wonder Quellas is so nervous.

　　 Green Light, one of the nine giants in the shadow world, is indeed a power that is close to a god; although the Bingfeng Ling has many legends that can contain him, such as the cloud climbing monk who had been photographed that day. But as long as Lu Guang wants to leave, no one can keep him.

　　 If you are stared at by such a top rogue, it is still light to sleep and eat.

　　……

　　 "Your Excellency seems to have overestimated our strength."

　　 Evelyn looked at Quellas with some caution: "Also, your knowledge of legends is much deeper than those of us, don't you?"

　　 "This is the ice wind collar."

Her meaning is very obvious. Even if Green Light is really eyeing Quellas, the opponent will be shocked at most on the three-point acre of Ice Wind, and it is unlikely that they will shoot in person, otherwise the end will be like Tunguska, who was accidentally summoned yesterday, had the same eyeballs, and was easily arrested by an old monk in the neighborhood committee...

　　Quillas was silent for a while and explained:

　　 "Of course I know that this is the ice wind collar. But the legendary wanderer is another concept. They may come from the shadow world, and the shadow world has always had some unconscious means."

"Although I am not afraid of the Shadow Realm and the possible behind-the-scenes master, even if he does make a move, I can contain him, but the problem is that I am completely on the bright side, and I think Her Royal Highness can understand me. the meaning of."

　　 Evelyn paced back and forth in the room, thinking on the surface, but actually winking at Xu Nan.

　　 At the same time, she replied slowly:

　　 "What you worry about is that he knows you well and will calculate all your hole cards; and you are looking for us to add some unexpected chips to these hole cards..."

　　Quillas nodded, seemingly inadvertently:

　　 "His Royal Highness is really smart, and she deserves to be a descendant of Caesar."

　　 Evelyn's expression did not change, but she faintly replied:

　　 "Unexpectedly, Mr. Quellas would also believe in hearsay stories."

　　Quillas was taken aback for a moment, as if she didn't expect Evelyn would answer this way, and then nodded apologetically.

　　 Xu Nan was also a little strange, but he soon understood what Evelyn did.

Judging from the dream, she didn’t seem to like the awakening of the blood mage very much. She herself rejected the Caesar’s bloodline too much; she wanted to take up this responsibility, perhaps more of being responsible for the people of the ice wind leader. .

　　 In the Eastern Kingdom, the legend about the blood of Evelyn Caesar has always been a semi-public secret. The so-called semi-public means that because of the turmoil caused by Evelyn’s mother, Ulrika, many people noticed the young Evelyn.

　　The secret is that, under the protection of the old king, whether it is Ulrika or Evelyn, whether they have the blood of Caesar has not been confirmed.

　　 This story gradually passed by with the passage of time. Under the intentional dilution of official power, no one mentioned it, and it naturally became the so-called secret history of palaces.

　　 Evelyn is fine to denounce it as hearsay.

　　 It was that Quellas suddenly said this at this time, and Xu Nan felt that he had a somewhat tentative meaning.

　　 "Did he notice the blood elves' loss of control yesterday?"

"In fact, it's not that Little Jasmine can't control the blood elves, but because someone of higher rank has awakened. The Atsam family originally swears allegiance to the bloodline of Caesar. The blood elves should listen to the knowledge of the awakened blood mage. Evelyn, and Evelyn happened to be in a coma at the time, and the blood elves naturally lost control."

　　 These things are what Xu Nan guessed after obtaining the [Blood Mage's Awakening] mission, and in the simple discussion with Evelyn, these news were also confirmed.

　　 Obviously, Quellas also figured it out.

　　 If he had guessed about Evelyn’s identity before, then he might be more suspicious now.

　　 It's just that he still needs the help of Evelyn and Xu Nan for the time being. The temptation is just by the way.

　　 "I don't know what the attitude of the Ice Goddess Church towards the descendants of Caesar is..."

　　 "This Quellas does strange things all day long. It is really unpredictable. It seems that there is no information about him in Paradise Lost, which is really strange."

　　 Xu Nan's mind was moving fast.

Information that is not involved in Paradise Lost means that the other party has extremely terrifying confidentiality capabilities; and in this case, people in the shadow world can actually find out that Geralt is the illegitimate son of Quellas-they deserve to be often lost. Paradise is in the wrong!

　　 Evelyn is still consulting Xu Nan's opinions with her eyes.

　　 Xu Nan thought for a while and asked straightforwardly:

　　 "Everything has a motive."

　　 "I think that Quellas wants to show justice for Little Jasmine with great fanfare. I'm afraid the purpose is not so simple, right?"

　　 "Just like the legendary wanderer of the Shadow Realm who threatened you...your purpose is the drum of time, right?"

　　 Quellas' face was sinking. Obviously, he had already guessed that the process of the conversation would inevitably be unable to bypass this pocket watch.

　　 He shook his wrist, and took out a delicate pocket watch from his underwear pocket.

　　 "That's it." Quellas did not deny it.

　　 Evelyn is not a fool, and obviously neither is this Mr. Su.

　　 "The Drum of Time is certified by the Atsam family head, and it does not seem to be a precious magical item."

Evelyn looked at the pocket watch with some curiosity. If she insisted on saying that there is something special about this watch, it might be that the time is more precise-but it is not uncommon. Many high-end magic clocks have similar automatic calibration. effect.

　　 This feature alone will definitely not attract great magicians and legendary wanderers.

　　 "What I want to say next is the main reason I use enchantment."

　　Quail Ruston paused, his eyes firm:

　　 "The Drum of Time has another function besides being the property of the Atsam family's head."

　　 "It is a key."

　　 "This key can open a treasure that contains countless treasures. I have no interest in most of the treasures in this treasure, but there is only one thing that I have been searching for for many years and have not obtained it."

"I helped the poor child, on the one hand, it was indeed for the sake of justice, but in the process, I seemed to be misled, which led to my judgement, which was my huge fault; on the other hand, I did I also hope to use the drum of time to unlock that treasure."

　　 "There is nothing shameful about this. Everyone loves treasures, and everyone has their own motives. I think that the strong man in the shadow world has what he wants, and it is in this treasure."

　　 treasure!

　　 Frosty Winter Treasure. Appeared!

　　 Xu Nan's eyelids twitched slightly. The matter really pointed directly to the Frosty Winter Treasure mentioned in the Paradise Lost System.

　　Quillas shouldn't lie, but what Xu Nan didn't expect was that the clue would be so simple and straightforward.

　　 The pocket watch in Mirren's hand is the key to Frostwinter's treasure.

"I have a question." Evelyn said calmly: "If the Drum of Time is the key to an important treasure, and the former owner, Master Mirren, is just a weak man, there is no strong guard around him, Coldridge Valley. There are few people, whether it is you or the shadow world rogue, should you be able to get it easily?"

　　 This is also Xu Nan's question.

　　 If their goal is the drum of time, why do they want to make a big splash? Wouldn't it be easy to find Mirren directly and kill someone for treasure?

　　Quillas smiled bitterly:

　　 "First of all, it is useless to get the key. A member of the Atsam family must hold the key in order to truly unlock the treasure."

"Secondly, Master Mirren is very simple, and spends most of his time hiding in the castles in the Coldridge Valley. It is impossible to start outside the castle; and that castle, haha, you may not believe it, that castle has The shelter of the will of the plane!"

　　 Xu Nan was taken aback for a while, and Evelyn was also a bit at a loss.

　　 Planar will, this rhetoric may be a bit mysterious to ordinary people, but Xu Nan understands it very well.

　　 This thing is equivalent to plane dreams and protoss!

　　 But the plane will of the general world, that is, Lannis, hasn't it left soon? After she leaves, the will of the plane is still in effect?

　　Quillas went on to explain:

"It may be because of Atsam's **** battle in the abyss that he moved the will of the plane, so the settlement of the Atsam family has been blessed by the will of the plane. If anyone dares to break in, who dares to walk in the castle? Anything that hurts the descendants of Atsam will be permanently cursed by the will of the plane."

　　 "The devil lord like Tunguska is naturally not afraid. He has been cursed by the will of the plane thousands of times, but the people in the shadow world and I do not want to offend the will of the plane."

　　 "So we all chose to start from other aspects."

　　 Xu Nan sneered.

　　 just said that it was for justice, and now he bluntly said that he couldn't move Mirren because he was hiding in the castle and was blessed by the will of the plane.

　　 This magician is really real enough.

　　 To put it bluntly, I am afraid of being cursed by Lannis? It's a pity that Lannis has disappeared. I don't know how long it will take for the general world to reconsolidate and give birth to a plane will?

　　 Take back your thoughts.

　　 Judging from Quellas' description, he may not lie. After all, it's this time. The fact that Geralt is his own son shouldn't be nonsense. Since he asks Evelyn, he naturally wants to win as much as possible.

　　 I just don’t know if he is hiding anything.

　　 Xu Nan doesn't trust this guy anyway, maybe he is naturally skeptical of all magic arts except Qin Lele.

　　 But for the specific decision, leave it to Evelyn.

　　Although he likes Geralt quite a bit, it matters a lot.

　　 Evelyn nodded and pondered for a moment:

　　 "If we need to act, what do you need us to do? What risks will we take? What can we get?"

　　 Geralt showed a hint of joy.

　　 Since Evelyn said that, she decided to take action.

　　 No matter what angle it came from, it was excellent news for him, who was calculated to be passive by the strong in the shadow world.

　　 "I will go to the appointment with the drum of time according to the time and place on the blackmail letter."

　　 "I hope to use the power of Her Royal Highness and Mr. Su as my backup."

"The place mentioned in the letter is actually not far from the temple of Tazarr where I live, but I dare not summon the people in this town because it has been occupied by the blue cult. I suspect that there are people in the blue cult and the shadow world. Collusion!"

　　Quillas said quickly. His thinking is very clear, and he seems to have come prepared.

　　 "If you are paid, as long as the matter is resolved smoothly, I will open the treasure. Then I will only take one of the treasures in it, and you can take the rest of them!"

　　 Evelyn and Xu Nan looked at each other, neither of them satisfied.

　　 This old boy deserves to be a great magician, this is so good at calculating, this is purely an empty glove white wolf!

　　 Before I saw the treasure, I started writing a blank check.

　　 Evelyn heard another meaning, she asked a little unexpectedly:

　　 "Two? You mean, do you only need two of us?"

　　Quillas nodded and said, "Although the number of people is more powerful, it can easily attract the attention of the rogues, right?"

　　 This is even more suspicious.

As a lord, she shouldn’t have taken risks with her body. There may not be many legends under Evelyn’s status, but there must be many quasi-legends. She will probably send a few masters to help instead. Personally shot.

　　 It is an extremely rare neuropathy physique like Xu Nan who, as a city lord, runs around and plays...Of course, this is also not related to the masters under his hands.

　　Quillas specified that Evelyn and Xu Nan would take action, but it looked more like a trap against them.

　　 What if the so-called abduction of Geralt was self-directed and performed by Quellas and the shadow world?

　　Grey got the information that Quellas deliberately gave him?

　　 According to the intelligence capabilities of the Shadow Realm, nothing is impossible.

　　 After so many things ~www.readwn.com~Xu Nan's calculation ability has also increased to a certain extent.

　　 He said decisively: "It's better to be more active than this."

　　 "Why don't we go directly to them? Before the meeting, find them and rescue Geralt!"

　　Quillas was obviously taken aback, he didn't seem to have considered this plan at all.

　　 After a while, he said dullly:

　　 "I am not good at divination and tracing, and the wanderers in the shadow world have a natural advantage in this aspect. I don't think we can find their current residence."

　　 Evelyn's eyes lit up: "Any clue?"

　　 Xu Nan nodded: "Give me some time, I will go to the toilet."

　　 He left the room and quickly took out a newly baked note from the original treasure chest:

　　 [Qin Lele: I found a fat sheep! 】

　　 This is the news he suddenly received half a minute ago. The little girl looked very happy.

　　Xu Nan quickly replied: Is your fat sheep a middle-aged and honest uncle who looks like an honest but quite likable middle-aged man?

　　 [Qin Lele: Xu Nan, are you peeping at me? 】

　　 Xu Nan: Is he called Geralt?

　　[Qin Lele: Wow! Peeping and tracking stone hammer! Say, do you like me, don't hide it, come out. 】

　　 Xu Nan:...

　　 Xu Nan: Where are you?
