Chapter 106 Holding the Thigh
"Isn't there any intention of holding the principal accountable for the loss of a city?" Gothe couldn't help but ask one more question.
In previous lives, if a city suffered from natural or man-made disasters and caused such huge losses, the local government would have to be held accountable.
Now the whole city has fallen, and the casualties are countless.
As the supreme leader of the entire Bremen region, the Lord of Bremen City does not have to bear any punishment at all?
"Being reasonable is more or less punishable. After all, signs of the rebirth of the earth's veins have been appearing for so long, so there is no way to be negligent." Maciej also did not shy away from revealing some secrets to Gothe.
"But, the relationship between our city lords is very tough."
“The wife of the current dean of Siris Magic Academy is from our city lord’s family, the Haines family.” Maciei pointed upward.
"With this relationship, Lord Haines has more or less privileges. For things like this that can be investigated but cannot be investigated, the higher ups usually treat them as if they did not happen."
"And with this relationship, Haynes has some privileges. As long as the direct descendants of the family have outstanding mage talents, they can directly enter the Sires Magic Academy without going through the extremely strict assessment. "
Speaking of this, Maciei's tone was filled with envy.
It seems that this is the "privilege" that he cares about most.
"Just like this time, Mage Frey led a team to Bremen for support."
「而我们海恩斯城主大人，短短时间里就已经打点好关系。」
「弗雷法师在回去的时候，会带上海恩斯城主的三个儿女，送他们前往赛瑞斯法术学院学习。」
听到熟悉的「赛瑞斯法术学院」，高德下意识正襟危坐。
"Forget it, Miss Jelika, she is only sixteen this year, and she has already broken through to the third-level mage apprenticeship three years ago."
"She is just to awaken powerful expertise when she rises to the level. , I have been focusing on learning spells and expanding my spell library in the past few years, and have been stuck as a third-class mage apprentice."
"With Miss Jelika's talent, even if she takes the examination of Seris Magic Academy, she has a high probability of passing it."
"But the other two, who are several years older than Miss Jelika, have only just reached the level of third-level mage apprentice this year."
"With the resources of the City Lord's Mansion, even a pig can use magic potions to become a third-level mage apprentice. It is a waste of resources to enter the Siris Magic Academy with such talent." Macie curled his lips and muttered in a low voice.
"You mean, Miss Jelika?" On the other side, Gothe didn't pay attention to Maciej's muttering, and his eyes had already brightened.
He never expected that the beautiful lady with melancholy eyes was actually a genius with outstanding mage talent.
Maciei didn't think too much. How could he have thought that Gothe, a wild mage, would interact with the lady from the city lord's mansion?
He just thought it was Gao De's curiosity, and introduced him casually: "Miss Jelika is the most outstanding mage talent of this generation of the Haynes family. It is a pity that she is a woman, and her mother died of illness early, otherwise our next city lord of Bremen City would most likely be her." The concubines began to fight with each other, all trying to take the position of the head wife. "
"But we, the Lord of the City, are just watching, letting them use their own methods to fight openly and secretly, but they are not sure about the new head wife."
When it comes to the gossip in the City Lord's Mansion, Maciei couldn't help but say one more thing.
Sure enough, no one doesn’t like gossip.
Gaode listened with great interest and had more ideas in his mind.
After a chat that lasted for about half an hour, Gaud very wisely and resolutely declined Maciej's invitation to dinner and left Maciej's house before the meal.
"Miss Jelika, Miss Jelika"
Walking on the street, Gothe repeated the name, and various thoughts flashed through his mind.
The next day is the harvest month, the 26th.
In the morning, Gothe came to the most central and even the most magnificent building in the entire city of Bremen.
No. 1, Shenliu District, City Lord’s Mansion.
As the "center of power" in Bremen, the City Lord's Palace is majestic.
The towering exterior walls are made of white stone. Each piece of white stone has been carefully selected and polished, giving the surface a cold and deep luster.
The main door of the city lord's palace is made of thick red oak, with exquisite copper nails and carvings inlaid on the surface. It is strong and gorgeous.
On the lintel, there is a golden family crest with the pattern of "a bird with spread wings".
Him can still vaguely see several towering towers standing inside the city lord's palace.
Every detail shows the majesty of the city lord.
When Gothe stood in front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, which was carved with complicated patterns, a feeling of intimidation arose spontaneously.
He took out his pocket watch and took a look. The pocket watch worth 1 gold accurately displayed the time, just a quarter past nine o'clock.
The mechanical pointer on the pocket watch was moving slowly, as if it was silently urging him to do something.
There are guards on duty at the gate of the city lord's mansion, wearing shining armor, holding spears, standing tall and tall, standing there like sculptures.
"What are you doing?"
Before Gothe made any move, a guard on duty at the door had noticed him.
Seeing him stop at the door of the city lord's palace, he strode forward as usual, his voice loud and unquestionable majesty in his tone.
Gothe smiled slightly, took out the "business card" given by Jelica from his arms, and handed it to the guard.
"I am Google Ditu. I am here to visit Miss Jelica. Please help me inform you."
The guard on duty took the "business card" and after looking at it carefully, his expression softened and said, "Please wait a moment, I will notify the lady for you."
After he finished speaking, he took the "business card" and turned around and walked towards the city lord's mansion.
The guard on duty walked steadily and quickly, knowing that Miss Jelika's status in the city lord's palace was extraordinary, and Gothe was her guest, no matter how humble his appearance was, he would not dare to neglect her at all.
After a while, the guard on duty walked out of the city lord's mansion with a maid.
This maid is wearing an exquisite lace dress and a pearl hair ornament. She has a delicate face and an even more elegant manner.
Just looking at her appearance, she is not much different from some girls from wealthy families.
She first made an elegant curtsy to Gothe, and then said softly: "Master Google, Miss Jelika has been informed of your visit and is waiting for you. Please follow me."
Gothe first expressed his gratitude to the guards on duty, and then followed the maid into the gate of the city lord's mansion.
Pass through the heavy oak door, and under the guidance of the maid, walk around the exquisite stone fountains and flower beds, and finally arrive in front of a beautifully decorated living room.
She gently opened the door and signaled Gothe to enter.
When Gao De entered the living room, the maid did not close the door, but stood at the door to avoid outsiders from approaching.
The living room is elegantly and luxuriously decorated, with exquisite oil paintings and conspicuous family crests hanging on the walls, as well as many valuable items that should be called "antiques".
In the center of the living room is a huge long table, with exquisite snacks and exquisite tea sets placed on the table.
Miss Jelika has already sat on one side of the long table.
Today she is wearing a light blue dress, as calm and connotative as the ocean.
With a gentle smile on her face, when she saw Gothe coming in, she stood up gently and motioned for Gothe to sit down.
"Master Google, please sit down." Jelika's voice is soft and pleasant, making people feel comfortable and happy.
Gaode sat down on the other side of the long table under her guidance.
“Master Google came to visit today. Did he encounter any trouble?” Miss Jelika asked softly while pouring a cup of black tea for Gothe.
Miss Jelika is very direct. After all, when she gave Gaode her "business card", her original words were, "If you encounter any difficulties in the future and you really have no other solution, you can come to me at No. 1 Shenliu Street. Maybe I can help you."
