Alien Knights

　　 A woman wearing a grass-green tight-fitting long dress, sitting on the chair of the velvet blanket, took a sip of the red wine in the glass, closed her eyes and let the fragrance in her mouth jump on the tip of her tongue several times. Feng Yun Pinting's figure undulates with her breathing.

"Smooth and smooth, moderately sweet and sour, with just the right astringency. This must be a new brew from Edoliac. It is sunny in spring and picked at the beginning of summer..." The woman opened her eyes mistily, her face full of intoxication. She looked at the glass in her hand: "Red wine with this crystal sacred object is a perfect match. If you can add the "Roasted Fruit Banquet" of Silver Ring City at this time, do you know? It's in the royal family The most famous dessert. Fruit slices soaked in honey, sprinkled with cashews, almonds and pine nuts, roasted on a simmering fire, and bite down, the taste..."

"Do you like that glass and red wine? It's all for you. Talk less and drink more!" Rude interrupted the other person's speech. Sitting opposite the woman, the old man with gray hair and beard, dressed in a sloppy suit and sloppy work In the long gown, two long and thick white eyebrows trembling lightly, holding a stack of papers full of calculations and data in one hand and looking through it, and in the other hand grabbing a bottle of red wine and pouring it directly into his mouth.

　　 Looking at the other party's rough drinking style, the woman cast a contemptuous look, and carefully dried the wine marks on the glass with the soft cloth she carried with her, wrapped it up, and put it in her carry-on suitcase.

　　 "We are talking about business, Theodore. Someone in the "Presbyterian Church" has been very dissatisfied with you recently." The words of the woman in green made the old man who was busy looking through the papers not looking up.

The woman was a little annoyed, and patted the table in front of her: "The funding you used last month was three times that of last month. You still refuse to report on your research progress, and you sent the "Heirs" to the "Army of Strife". "Fewer and fewer."

"By the way, last week's Battle of the Watchtower, the "Relief Society" experiment not only failed to complete the mission, I heard that they violated orders and fled the battlefield without authorization. Do you know? I spent a lot of money on this matter. With great strength, the group of savages in the north was calmed down!"

　　 The woman was about to continue complaining, and there was an unhurried knock on the door of the room. The old man put down the wine bottle and tapped it three times on the arm of the chair. A man dressed as a farmer pushed the door in, walked to the old man, got down and said something quietly.

　　 "Oh! Are you here?!"

　　 The old man raised his thick eyebrows, which was so different from the attitude he had just now, and excitedly put down the paper in his hand.

　　 The green-clothed woman sitting across from him took a sip of her wine and smiled and said, "Is our guest here?"

　　Theodore raised his eyebrows, glared at the other person, and yelled angrily: "Rachell, remember, that's my guest, you came here uninvited!"

The woman didn’t care at all about the old man’s ill-spoken words. She wiped the wine marks on her lips with a plain white handkerchief, and straightened the wrinkles on her clothes. She smiled and said, “What’s the matter? I’m here for you. At that time, I just heard that this distinguished guest was coming to visit. Everyone saw it, and it was a destiny encounter. Besides, I really have something to do, and I hope I can talk to that person..."

"Rachel, don't blame me, the old man for not warning you. This is my site. You'd better put away the dirty tricks of the "Presbyterian Church"!" The violence in the eyes of the old man flashed past, and he cleared the table. The paper said to the waiter: "Take the guests to the main meeting room and let the chefs start preparing dinner, the best dinner!"

　　 expensive oil paintings, expensive carpets, shiny gold ornaments, Todd stood in an extremely luxurious reception hall, and there was a sense of disharmony in his mind.

　　 A place with such a high-end decoration and luxurious interior, from the location and appearance, it is actually less than a day away from the horse-drawn carriage trip in Muxi Town, a farming warehouse in an inconspicuous small village in the southern part of the Yuexi Plain.

As if seeing the doubt in Todd’s eyes, his throat bone tilted his head and said in a somewhat strange tone: "I’ll see the president later, no matter what he says or do, please be respectful, um... he is somewhat ……eccentric……"

　　 Todd frowned: "Let me meet Karin first."

The throat bone looked a little embarrassed: "I have repeatedly mentioned to you during the journey. The selection and determination of the "inheritor" is a long and complicated process. Miss Black Sheep is safe now...at least now. , Please remember! Your every move here will determine everything..."

　　 Todd was waiting to ask again, a loud voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Mr. Todd! I wanted to see you a long time ago, but unfortunately I haven't been able to spare the time. I didn't expect you to come to me first!" An old man in workshop overalls walked towards him quickly, stout and tall. His figure, a tough face, and the thick white eyebrows that are unforgettable.

　　 Todd was a little surprised. He cast his gaze to the throat bone to verify. The old man in front of him, no matter what appearance or dress, looked like a master ironman, could it be the president of the "Relief Society"? !

　　 Throat bone rolled his eyes, shrugged, and nodded.

　　 Todd arrived in a hurry, with the gray work clothes he was wearing in the laboratory under his cloak. The old man walked in front of him, looked at the long coat stained with colorful reagents on the other party, and glanced at himself. The workshop clothes that looked like a canvas showed a rare joy and joy on his face. He patted the opponent **** the back and laughed. Although it was the first time to meet, it was like an old friend who hadn't seen him for many years. Theodore affectionately pulled up Todd with a look of astonishment, and led him to the depths of the hall.

As the latter walked through the room, a pale green figure flashed past his eyes, but his face could not be remembered, only the blue-eyed Yingbo was still in his mind~www.readwn.com~Following the footsteps of the president of the "Relief Society" , Pushed open the door at the end of the hall, and the room in front of Todd made him almost forget to think. There are several huge wooden tables inside, which are full of things that he can't be more familiar with.

　　 The furnace body sketch for refining silver, the preparation materials for chemical experiments, the flow chart paper for the preparation of reagents, and even a copy of the microscope made by yourself!

"Here...here is..." Todd looked a little confused, it was almost like a replica of his own laboratory, except that the materials were more rough, and the equipment was more nondescript, but he could really tell. The master who made these took great pains.

　　Theodore picked up a sketch of the refining furnace, and said with joy, "This is what I specially asked for to paint. I also have a wood model of this furnace, but it's not here."

He picked up a blueprint full of chemical equations and reaction paths, and said loudly, "This is the notes that the church sent your alchemy materials to Silver Ring. I bought those greedy people and copied them for me. It’s already a manuscript that I read every day."

Then, he carefully picked up the imitation microscope and said cheerfully: "This is the most breathtaking thing I have ever seen! Your instrument is simply a work of genius, it can magnify everything a hundred times. Through it , I can see many things that I couldn't see before, it's so amazing..."

　　 "Mr. President..." Todd, who looked at the old man getting more and more excited and worried about Karin, thought about the need to remind him of his own intentions: "Actually, I am here today for..."

　　 Before he finished speaking, someone behind him stabbed him in the waist.

　　 Todd looked back, his throat squeezed his eyes at him, and shook his head.
