Chapter 357 Chris's Call
After entering the city, Li Zhong found a soldier on patrol along the street and asked, "Excuse me, what should I do if I want to go to the palace?"
The soldiers patrolling along the street couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "The Royal Palace? Sorry, the Royal Palace is an important part of the royal city. No adventurers or nobles are allowed to enter at will. If there is anything that needs to be reported, please go to the Adventurer's Palace first..."
"No, no, no." Li Zhong interrupted him quickly, took out a piece of paper and said, "Her Highness Alice called us here."
This piece of paper was given to Li Zhong by Sena. When the soldier saw this, he couldn't help but glared: "Are you the two adventurers who defeated the Headless Horseman and Nine Dragons Hydra?"
Youyou waved her hand: "I just fought against Hydra with Mr. Li Zhong, and I just hid behind during the battle with the Headless Horseman."
"Sorry, I'm rude. I'll report it right away and ask the two of you to follow me." The soldier immediately took Li Zhong towards the central building of the royal capital with his spear in hand.
The palace is not difficult to find. Anyway, just look for the most luxurious building in the capital. It is impossible for a noble to build a mansion more luxurious than the palace in the capital unless he is desperate.
But Li Zhong's current identity is just an adventurer, and it would be much more convenient to have someone with him.
The patrolling soldiers took Li Zhong to find his captain. After the captain confirmed the identities of Li Zhong and Youyou, the captain first took Li Zhong and Youyou to a guest room, and then reported it.
Li Zhong and Youyou were waiting in the guest room.
To be honest, this royal capital is indeed luxurious, second only to the palace in the imperial capital. But that is because the imperial capital is corrupt, and the officials and ministers are corrupt, so the palace there is so luxurious. In this world, Li Zhong has not participated in politics, so he does not know this
How is the governance of the country, but it is definitely countless times better than the imperial capital.
I have to say that perhaps they did not expect that Li Zhong and Youyou would come so soon, so even if they were notified, the royal family did not make preparations so quickly.
The captain who had just brought Li Zhong and Youyou in followed a woman and walked into the conference room. The woman was wearing light armor and had a long sword at her waist. She had sharp eyes and a tall figure.
After seeing Li Zhong and Youyou, she immediately saluted and said: "Welcome to you both for coming all the way from Axel. Because the royal capital has been a little busy recently, Her Royal Highness Alice may not be able to receive you this afternoon.
.However, the chef is already preparing the banquet, and we have also prepared a room for you two. If you two are willing, you can rest in the palace and see your Highness Alice tomorrow."
Hearing this, Li Zhong waved his hand nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, but please hurry up. After meeting Her Royal Highness Alice, I have to go to the Scarlet Devil Village."
The woman paused and responded: "Do you have anything else that is important?"
"Of course there is something urgent, but we can postpone it for a few days, otherwise I won't rush over." Li Zhong said helplessly.
Hearing this, the woman thought for a moment: "Do you need to go to the Red Devil Village to buy magic items?"
"Exactly."
The woman immediately nodded and introduced herself: "I can satisfy your needs. I am the eldest daughter of the noble Senfornia family, Kurea Senfornia. I can send someone immediately.
We are purchasing in Scarlet Devil Village, how much do you need to buy?"
"I need to buy magic items worth 700 million Eris, so I won't bother you. I can just go there directly. Transportation of large quantities of magic items is very troublesome." Li finally waved his hand and declined Kurea Senfoni.
Ya's suggestion, "Besides, Yoyo is the daughter of the leader of the Crimson Demon Clan. It will be much more convenient for me to have her around."
"So that's it."
As he spoke, Li Zhong suddenly felt something heating up in his pocket. After taking it out, he saw the badge that Chris had given to Li Zhong light up. The light emitted was not bright, but it was enough to make everyone present feel excited.
See.
"Huh? This is..."
When Kureia saw Li Zhong take out a shiny Eris Cult emblem, she couldn't help but admired: "I didn't expect Mr. Li Zhong to be such a devout Eris Cultist."
"Huh? How do you say that?" Li Zhong didn't remember that he had the setting of being an Eris cultist.
Kureya said with a serious face and a little admiration: "It is said that for people who are very devout in their belief in the goddess, the religious emblem can have the light of protection from the goddess! So far, it seems that only the religious emblem next to the high priest of the Eris Cult can
It exudes a faint light. I didn’t expect Mr. Li Zhong to have such a devout faith. If Mr. Li Zhong is willing to change his job and become a high priest, Mr. Li Zhong will definitely become the next high priest of the Eris Cult!"
"Forget it about the high priest, I'm just an adventurer. As for faith... that's about right. Anyway, I don't have much feeling." Li Zhong smiled bitterly, shook his head, and put away the emblem.
It is really a sin to compare himself with the high priest of the Eris Cult. He does not believe in God at all. It is not that he does not believe in God, but that he does not regard God as a belief.
In his eyes, Chris is just a partner...and occasionally his cat. If he has any faith in Chris.
It would rather be said that it was Li Zhong's belief in the beast's ears.
Kureya didn't say much, and after confirming the accommodation issue with Li Zhong, she left.
Li Zhong and Youyou left the palace and stayed in a hotel that looked good in the capital. They had dinner at a high-end restaurant nearby.
Looking at the table full of sumptuous dishes, Youyou couldn't help but be a little dazed, and said: "Mr. Li Zhong...why don't we live in the palace? Didn't that sister say that she had arranged meals and accommodation for us? We don't need to spend extra money, right?"
Li Zhong waved his hand and said: "I personally don't like living in the palace, and you can't walk around in the palace. If you accidentally walk into any restricted area, you will be convicted. And although they said
We’ve prepared a banquet, but the materials used to make it may not necessarily be high-experience-rich ingredients, so it’s better to go out and eat. Anyway, it’s not worth the money.”
"I see..."
Youyou rubbed her hands, suddenly thought of something, and suggested: "Mr. Li Zhong, I'll treat Mr. Li Zhong to this meal!"
"Forget it then." Li Zhong chuckled suddenly, "It's just a meal, it's only a few hundred thousand ri, so eat quickly. You can just stroll around the capital tonight. It's a chance to play in the capital."
not much."
Youyou nodded: "Mr. Li Zhong, won't you go?"
"I'm going to visit the Church of Eris. Just stroll around the streets for a while. Don't go into the alleys, and don't wander around for too long. We have to meet Her Highness Alice tomorrow."
