The changes in this city ... are really dazzlingly fast. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test

Melita Pena stepped out of her temporary accommodation, and the bustling "Pioneer Avenue" came as a grotesque drama.

Decent Cecil citizens and business travelers from north to south come and go on this wide street where twelve horse-drawn carriages can drive together, standing in front of the shop stores along the street to recruit employees of the guests, I don't know where to go The sound of music, all kinds of human voices, the clear bells of two-wheeled vehicles, all kinds of sounds are mixed together, and the lights behind the large windows are bright. The various products popular this year seem to be witnesses to this prosperous new world. Arranged indifferently on those shelves, watching this bustling human world.

It was almost dusk, the setting sun shed from the direction of the western mountain forest, and the faint Jinhui covered the city.

It used to be that the twilight hours were gradually deserted to the cities of the human world, but here, everything has long been different-this is the moment when the workers of a hard day rotate and rest, it is the students who leave the school and the night market Shops are ready to open their doors, and the citizens start their most leisure time of the day. Only then will a comprehensive commercial street like "Pioneer Avenue" be completely lively.

"I don't know what else ..." Melita stretched gracefully in the sunset and muttered gently in her mouth, "I hope this exchange will not be too harmful to health ..."

She walked in the direction of the city center, walking through the prosperity of the human world.

There were several young people walking together, these young people wearing clothes that were obviously foreigners, talking and laughing along the way, but when they passed by Melita, they slowly slowed down. They looked at the agent's direction with confusion. They seemed to have noticed that there was someone here, but they didn't see anything. They couldn't help getting nervous.

Melita smiled softly and walked past these suspicious young men, whispering to herself: "Dragon descent ... still retains a certain level of sensitivity to the same race. Anyway, It ’s also a good thing to get out of that big mountain, this time when the world is prosperous has always been precious ... "

Several young students of the Dragon Descent on the street hesitated and discussed. They felt that the breath that suddenly appeared and disappeared was very strange. One of the young people looked up at the intersection of the street. Quickly walk over there: "Mr. Sheriff! Mr. Sheriff! We suspect someone illegally using stealth spells!"

Melita, who had just stepped out, quickly accelerated her steps: "嘁 ...... Is the first thing I learned when studying abroad is to report ..."

The Cecil Palace stands majesticly in the center of the "Royal District" in the city center. This building is actually no longer the tallest and largest house in the city, but the empire flag flying high above the building makes it always have an aura of awesomeness for the Cecil.

Armed soldiers stood proudly at the gate at the gate, Melita lifted her hiding effect, and walked calmly towards the soldiers, who immediately adjusted their standing position cautiously-but before the soldiers asked. The door opened a short distance away, and a young girl wearing a black and white maid dress, with a dark gold emblem on her chest and cuffs, came out of it.

"Let her come in," the senior female officer greeted the soldiers, "Your Majesty's guest ~"

"Miss Betty?" The soldier looked back at Betty in confusion and turned to Melita. "Okay, I see. But I still need to register."

"Of course," Melita nodded. "Melita Penia, senior agent of the Mithril Treasury, special counselor and friend of His Majesty Govin Cecil-just register."

After passing through the gate at the gate, Melita followed Betty into the "palace" that was expanded and transformed by the lord's palace. She asked casually: "The soldier at the gate is new? Standing before The soldiers should remember me, and the last time I visited was seriously registered. "

Betty thought about it and shook her head in a straightforward voice: "I don't know!"

Looking at the still energetic maidservant (she is no longer a "little maid"), Melita froze for a moment, but soon she smiled slightly and her mood became lighter.

She originally came here to perform a short-to-medium-term observation task ... but unconsciously, these people and things that she observed seem to have become a very interesting and important part of life.

In this way, she came to Gao Wen's study room with a light and good mood. In the study room covered with velvet carpet and world map, she bowed slightly to the imperial ruler sitting behind the desk and said with a smile The opening remarks have been said many times: "Good afternoon, Your Majesty, Merita Penia, senior agent of the Mithril Treasury, is pleased to serve you."

Gao Wen raised his head from a pile of documents and books and glanced at the agent in front of him. After beckoning that Betty could leave, he casually asked: "Today, you are mainly consulting something. First of all, I will ask, Do you have an ancient giant metal tower near Tallond? Probably on the west or northwest ... "

Then Melita almost fell over with a smile on her face.

"What's wrong?" Gao Wen immediately noticed that the agent had a different look. "Is it difficult to answer this question?"

Immediately after he found another strange thing, he couldn't help but asked curiously: "Well? You didn't wear a veil today?"

Melita tried hard to maintain a light smile, and replied while adjusting her breath: "I ... I am also a woman after all, and I occasionally want to change my outfit."

Then she took a deep breath and said with a bitter smile: "Your question ... hasn't reached the level of breaking taboos, but it's almost the same. Instead of asking such a scary thing from the beginning, you can ... Do you want to change the usual topic? "

"Oh," Gao Wen nodded clearly, changing the question, "Have you eaten?"

Melita didn't respond at all to what this inexplicable greeting meant, but still subconsciously replied: "... Eat."
