Chapter 42 Meeting
Several people waited in the Duke's mansion for the Duke to finish writing the letter, and they waited for a whole day.
It was completely dark, but the duke hadn't been seen coming out of the study for a long time. Seeing that it was already dark, the duke was still obsessed with the letter he wrote to his wife, so the team decided to go offline and wait until tomorrow to take a look.
Alves found a nearby hotel to stay and told the butler that if the Duke finished writing the letter, he would send someone to bring it to him.
As a result, when he went online the next day, the Duke still hadn't finished writing the letter.
The housekeeper stood at the door of the study very worried.
"The Duke hasn't come out since he entered the study yesterday."
He didn't eat, take a bath, take a bath, or sleep, and he was immersed in the joy of writing letters to his wife wholeheartedly.
The team nodded in understanding, and continued to eat the refreshments prepared by the butler in the living room, waiting for the Duke to finish writing the letter.
Today is the third day of the player meeting. Originally, the team planned to go out to gather again, but it was temporarily canceled because of this adventure.
After waiting for another day, the Duke still did not come out of the study.
On the morning of the third day, the team even brought something to pass the time, and the Duke finally came out of the study.
It was heard that the duke, who had been without food, drink or sleep for more than two days, came out holding a box with wandering eyes and stubbled face.
He put the box on the table and pushed it to Raven, "Mr. Paladin, please bring this letter to my wife."
The box was not sealed properly, Raven consulted with the Duke, and opened the box to have a look.
A thick stack of letters covered the entire box. It was roughly estimated to be [-] centimeters thick. Raven picked up the top piece of paper and found that it was not as thick as stacked one by one. There is only one piece of paper, which is twenty centimeters thick after folding.
It is hard to imagine where the duke found such a long piece of paper, Raven refolded the letter and put it back, saying: "We will send this letter to the duchess later, may I ask what happened between you and the duchess?" What happened to make the Duchess so angry?"
The Duke shook his head, not very willing to talk about it.
He only said: "You send the letter to Madam, and you will know after she reads it."
Seeing that the Duke really had nothing to say, the team took the box and bid farewell to the Duke and the butler, and found the Duchess' home according to the location given by the Duke.
The Duchess's family is the most prestigious family in the entire imperial city, and the mansion looks bigger than the Duke's mansion.
Raven found the doorman and explained his purpose.
The doorman had worked at the Duchess's house for a long time, so he knew more or less what happened back then, so he went to report without hesitation.
Soon, their housekeeper also came out with the guard and welcomed them in.
"This is the letter that the Duke asked us to send to the Duchess." Dark Crow put the box in his hand into the butler's hand without saying a word, "He asked me to tell Madam that he has found [-], please help the housekeeper This letter is forwarded to Madame."
The butler nodded and asked them to wait here for a while before handing the box to the duchess.
Before leaving, the Duke stuffed [-] into the box. The team felt that the Duchess would not read the letters so quickly, so they left the Elf King with nothing to do, and went offline for fun. .
Alves doesn't care if he is left here alone. He usually stays alone in the Sunshine Forest by himself, and the elves don't go back to disturb him when they have nothing important to do. Staying at the Fountain of Life, waiting here for a while now is nothing.
The butler came out after delivering the letter to the Duchess, and seeing that Alves was alone, he chatted with him.
After Jiang Huaichen went offline, he fed Mr. Liu cat food. It happened to be lunch time, so he got up and made something to eat casually, and opened the group to see their chats.
With the Elf King guarding over there, they are not in a hurry to go online. If there is anything they can ask Alves to help first.
It was two o'clock in the afternoon when they went online again, and the Duchess hadn't finished reading the Duke's letter, and Alves chatted with the housekeeper in full swing.
The butler of the Duchess's house is quite young, probably from his father's generation or a few generations earlier, and he knows the Duchess' affairs very well. After sitting and chatting with Alves for a while, he learned everything he knew. Shake it out.
Although the elves hate foreigners and don't join the world, they have a very strong affinity, especially the elf king. In the Sunshine Forest, the man-faced spiders will not take the initiative to attack when they see him. Facing an ordinary human, this affinity is easy The ground worked.
The butler is younger than the duchess, and he and the duchess are barely childhood sweethearts. He has played with the duchess since he was a child, and he knows more about the duchess' affairs.
But he didn't know why the Duchess was angry with the Duke at that time, and she went back to her natal home for ten years without visiting the Duke once.
The team waited here for a while, listening to Alves gossiping with the butler, and chatting in the team channel.
After another hour of waiting, the Duchess finally came out of the room.
She held the box of letters with a calm expression.
The butler wanted to step forward to take over, but was rejected by the Duchess.
"Are you the one who picked up [-]?"
the Duchess asked Raven.
"Yes."
The Duchess sighed, put the box aside and sat down, and said, "Sit down, all of you."
The squad that hadn't gotten up from their chairs at all nodded their heads and waited for the Duchess to tell them a story.
The Duchess sat down and took the tea handed by the butler, took a sip and began to tell the story of her and the Duke.
What I said earlier is the same as what the housekeeper of the Duke’s mansion said. At the beginning, her father wanted her to marry her and she had no objection. Later, when she met the Duke at the Duke’s mansion, she fell in love at first sight and asked to change the marriage partner. He didn’t care about the Duke’s identity. Later, the Duke worked hard for her. The image of becoming a duke moved her very much.
They were very affectionate after marriage, no matter what she asked the Duke would do his best to satisfy her, he was simply the best husband in the world.
Later, the Duchess heard that there are elves in this world. She wanted to see the elves, so she asked the Duke to find the existence of elves.
But the Duke has always felt that although there are dwarves and dark elves in the place where they live, elves do not exist, and they cannot be found at all just like dragons, so he directly rejected the duchess' request.
The Duchess was very angry, and threw [-] on the street in a fit of anger, telling the Duke not to come to see her if he couldn't find [-], and then packed up and went back to her mother's house.
As a result, the Duke really couldn't find [-] in the past ten years, until he was picked up by the Raven a few days ago.
"Actually, I'm not really angry that he didn't find an elf for me, but [-] is our token of love, and he can't recognize it after throwing it into the pile of branches. [-] is obviously the most special of."
...This could be replaced by the fact that any ordinary person really can't find it!
Raven was embarrassed to tell the Duchess that there were several branches that looked very similar to it in the place where he picked up [-].
He just had better luck and picked it up casually.
After ten years and the letter that the duke took painstakingly to write for two days, the duchess is no longer angry with the duke, but still hopes to see the elf.
After experiencing the great war, the elves did not enter the world and the dragon race also lived in seclusion on the floating peninsula. Most of the human beings did not know that these two races still existed, and only a small number of people still firmly believed in the elves and the dragon race. Dragons exist, and they are constantly looking for them.
The reason why the Duchess wants to see elves is also very simple. She heard that elves are very beautiful. She loves beauty and beautiful things, and wants to see for herself how beautiful elves are.
"Dear Mr. Paladin, since you can help the Duke find zero.[-], I would like to ask you to help me find the elves."
Raven: ...
[Team] Qianmu: Let’s just say that it’s impossible for Raven to trigger ordinary adventures.
[Team] Those who did not respond: Look, if you are an ordinary player, and you met the Elf King without a witch, where would you go to find an elf for the Duchess?
[Team] Wu Jian: Raven is able to do tasks that ordinary players can't touch at all.
[Team] Stealing Yu: You should have a better understanding of your non-qi.
[Team] Raven: Thank God for letting me meet the Elf King, I love you.
[Team] Interpretation: Huh?
[Team] Raven: ...
[Team] Wu Jian: Don't worry about him being in a bad mood today.
Raven agreed to the Duchess's request and found her an elf.
Raven looked at Alves eagerly.
The only elf they knew was the elf king.
If the Elf King is unwilling to reveal his true colors, maybe he can bring an ordinary elf here so that the Duchess can meet with him.
[Team] Ivan: I can help you.
The Elf King, who doesn't mind others seeing him, readily agrees that no human in the world has ever seen an Elf or an Elf King, and even if they do, they don't know who is who.
Having promised to look for the elves, the party immediately went out and came back, telling the Duchess that they were lucky enough to go out and meet the elves.
At the request of the Elven King, they asked the Duchess to take them to a dark room where the Elf would appear.
In the dark room, Alves took off his disguise, revealing his original appearance.
Alves didn't change his hair and eye color when he left the Sunshine Forest. He hid his pointed ears and modified his appearance. He changed into the clothes of an ordinary human player.
The silver-haired elf king exuded a faint light in the dark, his blue eyes looked condensed, and he was dressed in the robes of the elf royal family, illuminating a small area in the dark.
[Team] Raven: Will your elves still shine?
[Team] Ivan: Is the inherent skill bright enough?I can make it a little brighter.
[Team] Stealing Yu: Enough is enough, if it is brighter, there will be no sense of mystery.
[Team] Ivan: Do you want to take out the scepter?Will it appear a little dignified?
[Team] Non-responders: No need, you just need to impress the Duchess with your sharp ears and beauty.
The Duchess stared blankly at the luminous Elf King, and she was shocked by the beauty beyond human beings, until Alves gradually dimmed his own light, leaving the whole room in darkness, before he could react.
Alves quickly changed into his previous clothes in the dark, and then turned on the light.
The sudden dawn brought the Duchess back to her senses, and she was too shocked to speak.
After a long time, the Duchess, who finally recovered from the beauty of the Elven King, ran out of the room suddenly: "Thank you for letting me meet the Elf, I am going to talk to the Duke about this now, thank you for helping me finish it wish!"
The Duchess went back to the Duke's Mansion without forgetting to take the [-]. The team followed unhurriedly and arrived at the Duke's Mansion.
As soon as they entered the door, the Duke and Duchess had reunited, hugged each other lovingly, and greeted them happily when they came.
"Thank you very much." The Duke held the Raven's hand tightly, "If you hadn't found [-], maybe I would never see Madam."
"There is nothing special about the Duke's Mansion. This is a treasure chest that I got by accident before. I will use it to thank you."
The Duke gave the treasure box to the Raven as a reward. The team bid farewell to the Duke and his wife, ran to the place where they first saw [-], and watched the Raven open the box expectantly.
Dark Crow was very hesitant. His luck had never been very good, and he was very worried that the things he opened would be terrible. He looked at the little red hand in the team for help: "Master, are you here?"
Jiang Huaichen refused with a smile: "This is what you got by triggering the adventure, I can't open it."
Dark Crow remembered this, gritted his teeth and opened the treasure chest.
[System]: Congratulations on getting the Sunstone.
Hearing the name, he felt that it had something to do with the Sunshine Forest, and Raven looked at the Elf King.
"This is an item that allows you to enter the Sun Forest unconditionally." Alves glanced at the stone in Raven's hand, "After the war, I promised the Gray Helmed Knight that he could freely enter the Sun Forest, but the Gray Helmed Knight died. Then the stone disappeared."
Raven felt that he had finally won once.
It is rare for the Dark Crow to become aggressive, and the team members have always had confidence in the Dark Crow's innocence, so there must be a reason for his sudden sourness this time.
There are also players who trigger the same adventure, but each player gets different rewards in the end, and there must be differences in the middle that lead to different rewards.
Several people reviewed the whole process and felt that the problem was with the Elf King.
According to the process, the only possible difference is that the Duchess asks the player to find the elves.
Leaving aside whether it is possible for players to find elves, they estimate that this may be based on the level of the found elves to determine what they will finally get.
The Elf King is the highest existence of the Elf Race, so the rewards that the Raven gets are probably the best.
The Elven King conquered mankind with his beauty.
After completing the adventure, Alves followed the team to play an interactive dungeon and picked up several pendants.
After happily playing, the Elf King bid farewell to the team to find other things to play on their own, and made fun of Raven, who was rarely seen once today, and everyone went offline one after another.
Jiang Huaichen came out of the game cabin and looked at someone sitting on the sofa who was in a bad mood today.
In fact, it wasn't a big deal, but he was caught off guard and was beaten again by Mr. Liu, and now he is sulking with Mr. Liu.
Mr. Liu faced Tang Ruiqi as a typical type who knew his mistakes and did not correct them, and even if he won a round, he had to meow at him to show off.
Tang Ruiqi almost broke up with Liu Zongen, and when he went to buy cat food in the future, he would choose what he disliked the most.
Thinking of the appearance of Tang Ruiqi and Mr. Liu at that time, Jiang Huaichen found it very funny anyway. Mr. Liu was locked in the room before they entered the game. Jiang Huaichen endured a smile and took off Tang Ruiqi's game helmet.
Tang Ruiqi kept a cold face, unmoved.
"I've thought about shutting Mr. Liu in the room and facing the wall." Jiang Huaichen looked at him with a smile, and sat down beside him, "Are you still angry?"
Boss Liu and Tang Ruiqi confronted each other every time, but this time when Tang Ruiqi was about to win, he made a move and decided to have a unilateral cold war with Boss Liu, ignoring this cat who could do bad things.
Seeing the two of them having fun, Jiang Huaichen shut Mr. Liu into the bedroom with complacency, and also shut the food bowl and cat litter box in by the way.
Tang Ruiqi was also really angry, just thinking that it was a pity that he was disturbed after finally succeeding.
In the future, the cat must be shut down before doing anything.
Tang Ruiqi didn't speak, and Jiang Huaichen could guess what he was thinking.
She moved to his lips and kissed, "I didn't teach Mr. Liu well, now I apologize to you on behalf of him, and give you compensation?"
Tang Ruiqi pulled him into his arms and held him in his arms, and made an insatiable request: "One portion is not enough."
"I'll give you double." Jiang Huaichen raised his head and kissed his chin, "Who made you my pastor."
"Do it."
