Chapter 278 Saint's Coffin
The Duchy of Milan is a small coastal country on the west side of the continent. It is rich in large, glowing pearls and various exotic corals. These magical seafoods are not only popular among nobles from other countries who like to visit and improve their taste, but are also very popular among alchemists.
However, there are not many professionals in the Duchy of Milan. Even if you can only make a spark, you can get the admiration and respect of the local nobles.
Compared with the two great powers of Anjou and Capet, this country is more like a medieval city-state with a touch of magic, and its style is particularly normal.
The Duchy of Milan is adjacent to the Sea of Misty Sea. Unlike the Sea of Impermanence on the east side of the continent, the offshore waters of the Sea of Misty Sea are clear and blue. The sea breeze carries a moist and salty fragrance as it blows across the stone-paved streets. The port is filled with all kinds of sailboats.
These sailboats are not the long-distance sailing type, but sail along the continental shelf, so they are generally not large in size and are mainly used for simple cargo transportation.
The fleet of the Kingdom of Kaval began to land in the Sea of Impermanence on the east side of the continent, but everything in the Principality of Milan seemed to be peaceful. Two witches from the Witch Society were enjoying the sea breeze in this leisurely atmosphere, discussing magic and the situation on the continent.
Many people saw the two witches wearing pointed hats and began to walk around them carefully.
After all, this is a professional, and an organized and powerful professional at that. Even if he is only at the second or third level, it is enough to scare ordinary people in a small country like the Duchy of Milan.
Not to mention that the two are members of the Witch Society. Even the nobles of this country do not dare to provoke members of the Witch Society easily. After all, for these countries that cannot even establish a basic education system and where family heirs can only be sent to big countries to study, even ordinary professional organizations must be respected.
If a famous organization takes a fancy to the offspring of these nobles, it would even be an opportunity and a blessing for those nobles.
"The president has obtained some information on super-level magic. Would you like to take a look?"
A witch wearing a shorter hat pulled out a mysterious scroll from her sleeve and spread it out on the observation deck overlooking the sea.
"Stop it, I can't understand it anyway."
The witch in the tall hat just glanced at the super-level magic scroll and lost interest.
In addition to distributing information on super-level magic to leaders of various countries, the Kingdom of Kaval is also distributing information to professional organizations.
Nowadays, super-level magic has become an open secret among professional organizations, but there are not many professionals who can understand it, let alone use it.
The two witches joked with each other for a while, and then looked behind them. There were already many noble followers waiting for the two witches to finish their conversation and invite them to attend the ball.
The nobles on this continent really have a common love for holding balls.
Looking at the followers of these nobles, the two witches were very satisfied. Although in their own country, even in the organization, they were the type of people who were neither high nor low, but in this small border country, they were like gods to the nobles here. Many people hoped that their children would be favored by the two witches and benefit the family.
However, they still had a mission to accomplish, so the two witches did not accept the invitation, but let the nobles' servants wait for them obediently behind.
“I never thought that the Saint of the Lantern Dreamland would choose to sleep in a place like this.”
The witch with a low hat was admiring the sea view while complaining about this mission: "I thought the lantern dream would choose a place that looks gloomy or solemn, such as a grave?"
The witch in the tall hat warned: "Don't say anything nonsense. If the Lantern Dreamland knows that we have revealed the location of their Saint, we will be in big trouble."
"It's just a small evil cult. In terms of background, our witches are more..."
Before the witch with the low hat could finish her words, she saw a nun wearing a conspicuously slit nun's robe not far away, holding a lamp and looking at them.
The witch in the low hat suddenly felt dry mouth and couldn't even speak. An invisible sense of oppression surrounded her whole body.
"what happened?"
The High Hat looked at his companion with some confusion, but in the Low Hat's ears, the voice of the High Hat Witch became increasingly vague.
The low-hat witch was stunned for a moment, and crawled up from the ground with mud on her face. The experience just now seemed like a dream, and she became so arrogant in the dream. But when she woke up, she found that she had just fallen asleep at the gate of the city of Milan, and there was even dirt and weeds in her mouth.
Looking around, there was no longer any beautiful sea view with blue sky and blue sea. The entire area surrounding the capital of Milan was shrouded in the sea fog of the misty sea, and the companion in the tall hat was sleeping soundly on the mud and grass, and it seemed that he was having a nightmare.
In the fog not far away, a group of people were holding lanterns and carrying a coffin forward, and in the coffin was preserved the body of the Lantern Dream Saint.
The witch remembered that it was when she was at the city gate that she felt the fluctuation of magic power. Driven by curiosity, she used her true vision to see through a group of people who were hiding their whereabouts with magic. Then, after being looked at by a nun holding a lantern, she fell into a coma.
Thinking of this, the witch with the low hat suddenly began to tremble all over, looking at the strange scene not far away and dared not move.
In Lind's eyes, the Lantern Dream, which is shady and no different from an ordinary cult, is like an insurmountable barrier for these ordinary organizations and ordinary professionals. Even just one glance at it can send chills down one's spine.
The Low-Hat Witch completely understood the meaning of the saying "curiosity kills the cat", and kept cursing the task her president had assigned to her. The Lantern Dream has been very active recently, so the president of the Witch Club had people find the base of the Lantern Dream to discuss some things, but unexpectedly they encountered the body transfer of the Saint of the Lantern Dream.
Not being killed on the spot in the dream was already a sign of mercy from the other party.
The entire Duchy of Milan has so many precious magical seafoods, and there are no professionals in charge, but there is almost no war and no invasion, because the sleeping body of the Saint of the Lantern Dream is preserved here.
The nun holding the lamp took another look at the two messengers of the Witch Society in the sea fog, but finally did not kill them.
In order to transfer the body of the saint, the oracle lantern is now really in this team. If it were in the past, such an impolite guest would really be killed just for looking at the saint's coffin for one more second. But now, in order to return to the light, the saint gave an order in the dream not to kill unless necessary.
Although the Nun with the Lantern originally thought that this rule was unnecessary, after all, the Lantern Dream had long given up the possibility of becoming an orthodox religion again, after hearing the news from her predecessor, Sister Bernice, the nuns and monks in the Lantern Dream all began to abide by this rule again.
There are also differences in rank among the lamp-bearing nuns. Although Bernice seems a little neurotic in Lind's eyes, she is indeed a lamp-bearing nun who can wield the oracle lantern alone. She is the highest-ranking lamp-bearing nun and can be regarded as the direct leader of all the lamp-bearing nuns.
A glance at the Nun with a Lamp who was a member of the Witch Society revealed that she was not even qualified to approach the Saint's coffin. She was only responsible for following behind the coffin bearers and maintaining concealment magic.
After the coffin-carrying team went away, the member of the witch's society woke up her companions, but cold sweat was still pouring down her forehead. The witch seemed to realize that the person who had just taken action was just an ordinary nun at the back of the team, and the real big guys who led the way had not taken action yet, and didn't even look at her.
It seems that the rumors that the goddess issued a new oracle are true. The lantern dream actually started to move the coffin of the old immortal saint directly, and the professionals who carried the coffin and cleared the way were even more exaggerated. They were almost stuck at the limit of the tower's restrictions and could walk sideways on the continent.
However, such a team arrived at the border entrance of Capet North at a very fast speed, but was stuck at security check.
"Sorry, you have too many illegal items. We need to contact the Governor to make a decision."
"..."
Facing the northern nuns wearing orthodox nun uniforms, the leading cardinal nodded after a moment of silence and said, "Of course, thank you for your hard work, nuns."
The Cardinal of the Lantern Dream, who was feared by many magic organizations, had a kind face, like an old priest who came for religious and academic exchanges.
