Chapter 781 Found it

The old Wang Jue urged to complete the marriage as soon as possible, and was speechless to refute Zhou Ming's excuse.

However, Zhou Ming still refused to get married right away on the grounds that "it is not suitable now, and he is not mentally prepared".

It would be at least a year or two before he began to consider marrying a queen.

"Boy, you—"

The old Wang Jue was a little angry, his beard and hair were all stretched out, his eyes were wide open, and he showed an angry expression... As the owner of a land of more than 3000 million square kilometers and the supreme ruler of hundreds of millions of people, the old Wang Jue still has a lot of momentum Yes, when he gets angry, his opponents often tremble.

But Zhou Ming was still unmoved, he still insisted on his plan... The old Wang Jue's "dominant aura" was too childish for him.

"Okay! Boy, I will give you another year. After one year, you must marry Elsa!"

The old prince put down his words, seeing that Zhou Ming still didn't nod, his face turned pale, and finally he could only leave with a heavy snort.

The fuse of a conflict was buried here.

……

months later.

One day in July.

In the imperial capital, at the gate of a trade union organization located in the busiest street, two men and a woman walked out.

These three people were the Xiute team sent from the headquarters of the "Blue Hand" trade union to the Aurunian Empire to carry out the task of "finding the self-connected ones".

At this moment, they had just walked out of the branch organization set up by the "Blue Hand" in Orunia, and they all had gloomy expressions on their faces, and they were in a very bad mood.

They found a tavern nearby, ordered a few small dishes, sat at the table, and they drank mulled wine.

"It's been three years, we've been looking for three years, and we still haven't found anything. There are no clues. There are so many people. I guess we can't find the self-connected person, or the information provided by the president is wrong. Then A self-linker, not in this empire at all." Atlam said, taking a sip of ale.

"No, the information provided by the president cannot be wrong."

Xiu Te shook his head: "Perhaps that self-connected person left the empire, or hid on purpose, and was going around in circles with us."

"Anyway, no matter what the situation is, I don't want to continue looking for it. I plan to rest in this city for two years, and then return to the guild headquarters to deal with business."

Atlam directly chose to give up. He had run enough in the past three years and didn't want to continue running. As for whether the mission could be completed, he didn't want to care about it. After all, no team can guarantee a 100% mission success rate. , with many tasks, failure is very normal.

"The search must continue, but I agree to rest in this city for a period of time. In this way, let's stay here for half a year and let the people from the branch help us find it first."

Xiu Te said, in fact, he is almost on the verge of giving up the search, and the reason why he is still persisting is because of the sense of responsibility in his heart.

"We do need some time off."

Elias, who was sitting next to Xiute, also said.

It can be seen from this that in the past three years of searching for the mysterious "self-connected person", the three-person team was tired, annoyed, and frustrated.

Why is this happening?

Why are everyone, including the most responsible captain Xiu Te, so discouraged?

The reason is that in the past three years, the three-person team has searched back and forth three times in the huge empire of Aurunia, without missing any corner, but they just haven't found the target.

Searched three times?

In an empire with an area of ​​1.8 million square kilometers, how can a three-person team search back and forth three times?
Azure Eyes.

Once the level 4 auxiliary skill Azure Eye is turned on for omni-directional scanning, the magic web walker within a radius of a thousand miles can see it clearly.

Because the blue eyes can not only see clearly the content of the blue power in the warlocks, but also see the "soul string" connected to the magic net on the magic net walker... As long as he is connected to the magic net, the "blue power" The Power of Blue".

In addition to the skill "Blue Eye", in the Aurunian Empire, there are thousands of magic net walkers under the management of the "Blue Hand" branch, Xiu Te and the others have basically added friends and established in the magic net. After opening a communication channel and finding the self-connected person, Xiute also released it to these thousands of magic net walkers.

Once someone finds something, the discoverer can immediately notify Xiute through the magic net and report what he found.

In other words, Xiute and the others are not just three people who are looking for self-connected people, but more than 1000 people are looking for "online".

Adding up the two factors, it is not an exaggeration to search back and forth for the Aurunian Empire three times in three years.

Even so, they got nothing.

For three years, they didn't find any clues of hope and excitement... Even if there were, it soon proved that it was not.

So Atlam, who was still a virgin, felt very hopeless.

Captain Xiute's search strategy has also changed from "active search" to "passive waiting", and his work attitude is quite negative.

But this is also understandable. After all, they have run hundreds of thousands of miles in three years, and they are already exhausted physically and mentally. They need to rest and adjust their state.

So they slowed down their pace, rented a high-end apartment, hired a few servants to serve them, put aside their tasks for the time being, and enjoyed the cultural scenery of the city and tasted the delicacies in various streets and alleys in the mood of vacation , put on the shopping basket, go shopping in the business district, sit in various leisure places, and hear various stories in this empire.

And among all the stories, the stories about the young emperor of the empire—Noctis, are the most. Xiu Te and the others can hear at least two or three stories a day, and they heard 15 stories in the most day.

Why can I hear so much?
Because many stories are closely related and inseparable from people's daily life.

For example, for breakfast, Xiu Te prefers to eat a delicacy called "baozi"... which was invented by the emperor of this empire.

Atlam especially likes to eat "chaos" and "fritters", and he must order them almost every day...they were also invented by the emperor of this empire.

Ilyas likes to eat "tofu brain" with sugar the most. She thinks this is the most genius delicacy... and it was also invented by the emperor of this empire.

There are also "fried vegetables" and "soup" in the Chinese food series, "noodles" and "cakes" in the dinner series, and hundreds of delicious foods...all invented by the emperor of this empire.

In addition, the "four-wheeled carriage" used for travel, the "hot air balloon" flying around in the sky, and the "airship" that has just been successfully tested and successfully flown... were also invented by the emperor of this empire.

In daily leisure and entertainment activities, Xiu Te loves to play "chess", Atlam goes to the casino every day to try his luck in poker, and in the mahjong circle of the upper class ladies in the imperial capital, he gradually becomes famous. The outstanding Ilias...the three of them were playing these "little games" invented by His Majesty the 15-year-old Emperor named "Noctis".

After hearing too many stories about the emperor, Xiu Te and the others gradually became numb and no longer questioned, but they also asked themselves a few questions:
Is this true?

In this world, are there really people who are born knowing and omnipotent?
Can a 15-year-old boy really be so talented that he can bring hundreds of revolutionary innovations in a dozen unrelated fields?
Isn't this really a game to fool the people, or a lie fabricated by the government to deify the highest figures?
Xiute and the others had countless questions and conjectures in their minds.

But after half a month or so.

Through what they saw with their own eyes, heard with their own ears, and inquired and investigated in all aspects, after eliminating all "conspiracy theories" guesses, Xiu Te and the others finally accepted a fact:
In this world, there really are young geniuses who are omniscient, omnipotent, and almost evil!

Impressed.

For the emperor of this empire, Xiu Te and the others were completely convinced.

Among the various inventions created by the emperor, he lived a so-called "well-off life", accompanied by delicious food every day, enjoying the convenience brought by various infrastructures, and constantly satisfying his spiritual life... It was like living in "the land of heaven". All".

In this way, in this "carefree" life, Xiu Te and the others gained an average of 5 catties in weight, and gradually forgot about the tasks they were responsible for.

However, on July 8th.

A message from a friend in the magic net suddenly shocked Xiu Te and others:
"Shoot, I think I've found the self-connector you're looking for."

"What? You found it, are you sure?" Xiu Te asked excitedly.

"Yes, I'm pretty sure, and I found not one, but a full 100!" The message from the man was trembling.

"what?"

Xiu Te was taken aback!
