Chapter 1021 With such changes happening here , Claudia will naturally not continue to live in the castle.
That night, she returned to the steamship with a few cronies, and at the same time summoned all the representatives of the important forces.
Investigators, knights, royal servants, churches, third-party magicians, Berenwich... there are all of these people, not even people from Entrod or people with special status like Keya. Skip it!
On the surface, Claudia's purpose of gathering everyone was to discuss whether they should help [Nikos].
But in fact, her action speaks for itself.
If she was really unwilling to help, Claudia would not call everyone to discuss it. Now that she is the leader of the fleet, she has expressed her intention in this regard, and no one will go to talk to her at this time. Be against.
So back to the ship that night.
It only took three hours from the convening to the discussion and explanation, and the fleet reached a consensus on whether to help [Nikos].
In fact, the reason why Claudia acted like this is also very simple.
She led the fleet to sail this time, nominally to defeat the remnants of the "Nine Rings Secret Society", but more importantly, it was to connect the sea routes. Greed is indeed powerful, but its many overseas colonies are also something it cannot give up at will.
And in this way, [Nikos]’s request can be said to be just right.
This country has a vital canal, ensuring that the ruler here has an attitude that is inclined to [Gred], which is definitely something that Claudia values extremely.
The attitude shown in the brief meeting in the secret room was just the negotiation strategy she chose.
...
And so the meeting on the ship ended.
People began to return to their ships.
During this period, Nicole suddenly left the team on the investigator's side, and then trotted all the way to Ronald:
"Ronald, I heard that you followed His Highness to discuss this matter?"
"Nicole?" Ronald Nader responded, and at the same time turned to the maid and ordered, "Costat, you and El go back to the cabin first. Nicole and I will chat here. You don't have to wait for me." "
Sir, I understand." Kos Tate immediately nodded and excused himself.
Seeing the maid drag away El who shouted, "I still want to live in the castle," Ronald and Nicole left together and chose a corner on the deck to continue talking.
Ronald first joked:
"Nicole, you are quite well-informed."
"Not many people know the information that Claudia and I went together. How did you find out so quickly?"
Nicole immediately vomited. Sticking out his tongue, he looked reluctant.
"I don't have the habit of asking about this kind of thing."
"It's just that this time the people from the Springs Investigation Bureau followed His Highness, and many of us here in Burrenwich were a little worried about being tripped up. So I know I have a good relationship with you, so I came here to inquire about the news." So
it turned out to be another factional fight within the Bureau...
Ronald immediately remembered what he had seen in Burrenwich. The relationship between the investigators in the two cities was indeed not good. How nice.
It was only later that as Ronald's contacts changed and his strength rapidly improved, he almost no longer had contact with these things, so he didn't think of this immediately.
But now it seems...this thing really has a big impact.
After a little analysis in his mind, Ronald explained to Nicole at the same time:
"I understand the situation."
"But regarding this matter, Claudia did not talk about the details during the private meeting. At that time, the fleet The only people present are her, me, and the church's holy priests." "
If you are really worried that something will go wrong, you still have to think of a solution on your own."
"Is that so..." Nicole lowered her head Head, tone thoughtful.
Then the investigator girl's movements became a bit exaggerated.
After confirming that there was no news from Ronald, Nicole immediately turned her palm over and took out a wooden rune the size of a Go chess piece from the pocket on her waist.
Brush -
Immediately, the magic power fluctuation that can only be detected at a very close distance flashed on this rune.
If Ronald hadn't been observant enough, he wouldn't even have noticed it!
"Nicole, what are you doing?"
"Prepare the news and go back to deliver the mission." Nicole grinned at Ronald, "Since you don't have an accurate answer here, I will do a divination and go back to fool you with the vague result. Okay."
"Prophecy?" Ronald looked surprised.
This kind of spell, which has many taboos and is costly, was performed by Nicole in this way?
He was really in disbelief.
However, in response to the surprise in Ronald's tone, the investigator girl quickly shook her head:
"How could it be a prophecy spell?"
"Being able to use that kind of spell at will from a distance, I guess it will take a few years of hard practice. "
Ronald tentatively pointed at the rune:
"Then this is...?"
Nicole explained generously:
"This, this is something I figured out myself."
"You also know, I made it myself before. I have tried prophecy spells several times, so I have experience in this area. And when I came from the ice field, wasn't my ability greatly strengthened?" "
Combined with the new abilities and the successfully recovered original scriptures of the school, I have developed many uses myself, and this vague prediction spell is one of the results. Although it is not as easy to use as the real prediction spell, it can still give people a vague direction and prompt. It can be regarded as a degraded version of prophecy. ?"
Nicole was very modest when introducing her abilities.
But standing in front of Ronald, she held her head high in her movements, looking like she was something special.
Seeing Nicole's appearance, Ronald also smiled knowingly:
"Okay, okay, you are really amazing."
"Among the magicians I know, you are the only one who can do such a thing. It's amazing to think of it." Got it!"
"Hahaha, I knew you knew the goods, Ronald!" Upon hearing the compliment, Nicole did not hide her feelings, and even though she was happy, she did not forget to take the initiative to invite Ronald, " By the way, Ronald, do you want me to do some divination for you?" "
Although this kind of divination is not easy to use, it can come in handy sometimes."
Ronald nodded naturally:
"Then let's try it. ."
Based on his strength and status, Ronald was almost certain that he would be among the people who would help the [Knicks].
Now it would be a good idea to take advantage of this opportunity and ask Nicole to help.
"Okay, I'll be fine soon."
Hearing Ronald's answer, Nicole nodded slightly, and the magic power on the rune in her hand flashed again.
Then, the investigator girl raised her head and said with a slightly puzzled expression:
"Um..."
"Ronald, we probably have the result."
"The divination said - [The deepest level is here.]"
