Whispering Verse

"Huh? Really a witch?"

This result was unexpected to Xia De. He didn't care about the opera below at all. Obviously, the witch's news was more interesting: "What does this Ms. Edwards do?"

"Master of potions and alchemy, the first time you fell into a coma during the Randall Valley incident, it was the bottle of concentrated pink essence that she helped identify. If Grandma Cassandra's alchemy and potions in the council are ranked Second, then the first must be Edwards.

In addition to her identity as a witch, she apparently runs a pharmaceutical company in the south of Delarion, buying herbs and making them into medicines. Her number of followers is also the largest among us. After all, potions and alchemy skills are the easiest to attract people. In recent years, her pharmaceutical company has even begun to set foot in the field of chemical pharmaceuticals, and has also cooperated with Sister Devlin's Snake Heart Hospital-Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals United Company, you must have seen its advertisements in the newspapers. "

"Yes, antiseptic alcohol, y*** tincture, earthworm oil, tonic water, their pharmacists have many exclusive formulas." Although Xia De didn't need these, he had seen them many times in the advertisement section of the newspaper.

Although the existence of ring warlocks made this era very similar to the "Victorian Era" in my hometown, the medical level and chemical level were slightly higher. However, the means of doctors in this era are still very scarce. Bloodletting therapy and enema therapy are still common methods used by doctors in remote areas.

Pharmaceutical companies that can produce the drugs listed by Shade are quite rare, and although "Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals" has not exaggeratedly formed a pan-Old World monopoly, they can also be called one of the best.

"The big witches seem to have their own pretty good jobs."

Adelina whispered from the side, and Miss Galina nodded, she didn't mind sharing some information with them:

"The great witches all have their own followers. To make them follow with peace of mind, it is not enough to just give them power. Moreover, since the last era, witches have had a tradition of luxury... Cough cough, that's not the point, Xia De, you probably haven't met Audrey Edwards, have you?"

Miss Galina asked Xia De again, and Xia De was very sure this time: "No, does she have any questions?"

"This woman has a mental problem."

The Duchess said quite disdainfully, Xia De rarely saw her tone like this, which meant that she looked down on someone very much:

"You should know that the relationship between the Witch Council and the Orthodox Church is very delicate. There are several witches in the Council who were even wanted by the Church. During the Pantanal War, we helped the Church a lot, and the arrest was canceled. Knowledge The great witch with wisdom is the one who was once wanted."

Speaking of this, the Duchess became even more unhappy:

"I don't know much about this person, or I can say that I don't get along with this kind of person the most. I don't know if she reads to be insane, or she is not right. For a while, she was a little crazy even in the parliament. It is said that she is on the verge of losing control, but Your Excellency the Speaker trusts her. As for her being wanted, it is related to the study of the Philosopher's Stone."

"Ah? What?"

"The Philosopher's Stone is what you think it is."

The witch said, and knocked on Xia De's chest. He carried the Philosopher's Stone with him, and hung it with the enhanced witch detection badge. And Leiziya, who was holding Ruo Xia De's hand, had already led Xia De's hand to her lap. The light fabric feels pretty good.

Miss Galina continued:

"Most aspiring alchemists aim to make their own "Philosopher's Stone". A dangerous method was created little by little. Audrey Edwards used a dangerous method to conduct experiments about ten years ago. I won’t say what she did. The result is Almost summoned the ancient evil that was sleeping in the subspace...or it was really summoned, but it was sealed back by the speaker and the teacher of Sylvia who was not dead at the time. But even In this way, this kind of behavior still caused a great impact, which is why the church has been wanted for more than ten years.”

This is indeed a very dangerous behavior. For the sake of the peace and stability of the material world, the church's approach is not wrong.

"Miss Daniste said that the destruction of Green Lake Town was related to the Edwards family's desire for the elixir of life." Xia De said softly, guessing whether the witch's research on the Philosopher's Stone had something to do with family tradition.

"How old is Miss Audrey Edwards?"

Rezia asked again, holding Shad's hand and gently stroking her leg. Miss Galina glanced at her with a smile, and she knew exactly what she was thinking: "I can't tell you the exact age, women's age is a secret, and I have the obligation to help others keep the secret... However, she I am much older than I am. Apart from Granny Cassandra, this lady is the oldest in the council. I doubt that when she was born, the Edwards family may still be in Green Lake Town, or that she is Edward They are the first generation of descendants born after they left the town of Green Lake."

"oh?"

Xia De thought of Miss Dennist's mention that Green Lake Town and the Edwards family were ruined more than a hundred years ago. If the great witch Audrey Edwards is really old, then she may know the meaning of the "sun, moon and stars" pattern in the letter directly.

"But she looks quite young, and her heart is quite young, as if time has not left a mark on her. I once thought that this was the result of research on the Philosopher's Stone and the Elixir of Life, but after reading After Xia De's "Secret of Immortality", I think her youth is probably due to another reason."

"Another woman who looks young, but is actually very old?"

Rezia said in a low voice, her tone was a little unstable. The Duchess leaned back a little and leaned comfortably on the sofa:

"Although Xia De wants to get news from Edwards, I don't suggest that he go directly to this crazy woman. It won't do him any good. Although Audrey Edwards' spirit has obviously stabilized in recent years, But from time to time, there will still be behaviors that are different from ordinary people. Therefore, I suggest that Xia De first look for other clues. We need to help him find other descendants of the Edwards family. If he really can’t find other directions, I will think about it. How can I ask Audrey Edwards... It is interesting to say that these ring magicians who pursue knowledge and wisdom seem to have fallen into madness in the end."

What she thought of at this time was probably Sir Lykins Priscia, the chosen one of knowledge and wisdom fell into madness, but also gained the so-called "omniscient" because of it.

"I understand that I won't come into contact with this kind of person. Besides, I don't plan to wander around recently. The Tobesk Riding Competition, which opens on Sunday, is the focus of my recent attention... said Get up, among the sub-events of the competition, is there a Rhodes card?"

The girls laughed, and Shad could even imagine Tifa smiling behind him.

"Every year, the sub-projects will be announced after the opening and the registration is over, so that no one can cheat in advance. But so far, the Rhodes card has never become a project."

Leiziya introduced that her blushing was probably because Xia De's hands were really hot, and her voice was very soft because she didn't want others to hear that her voice was trembling. Xia De nodded calmly, as if he didn't know what his hands were doing, and Miss Galina said:

"I'm looking for you tonight. Apart from Edwards' matter, there is also an equestrian competition around the city. My nephew, Leizia's father, our King, entrusted me to tell you personally, to participate in this competition There are Carson Rikers."

She sniffed it suddenly, and looked suspiciously at the three people on the side in the dark. Shad said:

"Isn't this normal? Foreigners take part in the competition every year, and the regulations of the competition do not prohibit Kasenliks and citizens of other principalities from participating. In recent years, even women have been allowed to participate."

Of course, because the competition is not grouped according to gender, and there are obvious differences in physical strength between men and women, so far all previous champions have been men.

"The foreigners this time are not ordinary people.

Because it involves the division of commercial routes and border lines in the Pantanal region, although the negotiation sites have been selected in Mikaela Blast City and Green Lake City~www.readwn.com~, the two countries still have to send representatives

They will go to the capital of the neighboring country first to discuss the schedule and other matters. The Kasenlik delegation was small in size, led by Earl Lewis of the Kasenrik Kingdom Council. You don't need to pay attention to this person. Brothers Eric and Charles Furren in the team are the ones you should pay attention to. They are the twin sons of the Marquis of Furren. They are 31 years old this year. When they are young and strong, they will participate in the equestrian competition around the city. My nephew told me to tell you that they must win. "

Miss Galina looked at Shad and said, "You know why."

"If you let them win, the negotiation will be at a disadvantage from the very beginning." Xia De nodded, but he didn't care about winning two ordinary people:

"Registration will officially start tomorrow, and I will be there for the opening dinner on Sunday evening."

"You don't have to participate if you want to. You are currently the only "official knight" in Delarion, and you didn't inherit the title of knight from the family."

Rezia said, rubbing the back of Xia De's hand with the pad of her thumb, and then bit her lip to keep herself from humming. Xia De's hand didn't go deep into the excessive part of the skirt, but just rubbing on the leg wrapped in fabric was enough:

"Xia De, everyone is watching your performance."

"It's good for Shad to understand that this negotiation with Kasenlik is the biggest diplomatic event since the peace between the two countries, and it is clear that each of us hopes that the peace can continue."
