Mysterious as the Wind, Always With Me

Chapter 175: To save face and suffer the consequences

Mark's eyes have different visions, and the two scenes form almost completely opposite inversions.

In the vision of destiny, Anastasia is just a loli who is about 15 or 16 years old and is about to expire. She pitifully uses the rags on her body to cover up the beauty of her body, looking like she is in a hurry. That frightened expression clearly said "Don't come over"!

In reality, the eldest princess of the empire is beautiful and delicate, like the most perfect goddess statue carved by a master sculptor. A head of silver-white shawl long hair, inspired by the overflowing extraordinary power, moved automatically without wind, floating like a fairy.

She was wearing a complex blue and white palace dress that was very characteristic of Bill's empire. Every flower embroidered on the dress had a faint scent of frost.

She just folded her hands and gently placed them on her lower abdomen, standing there, looking at the guests with a detached and calm gaze, with a toothless smile that was common in royal etiquette training, showing that Graceful and luxurious temperament.

At this time, the etiquette officer standing beside the eldest princess said in a calm voice that perfectly conformed to the palace etiquette: "Welcome! The hero who saved the port of Austin. This is the eldest princess of the Bill Empire and the saint of the Ice and Snow Goddess. Her Highness Anastasia Romanova."

The eldest princess opened her voice. It was an ethereal voice that even gave people an inhumane indifference.

"I'm sorry to receive the great hero who saved the people of the Bill Empire in this way. Unfortunately, my control of my power is not very good. But there will be palace mystics to help me suppress it, so extraordinary people don't have to worry about being harmed."

With an extremely candid opening statement and an image that shocked the visual nerves, this princess who is also the Snow Saint, with her Sequence 6 and approaching Sequence 5 strength, created a very strong start for this meeting.

Mark smiled. If he hadn't had a perspective on fate, he might have been fooled by the princess. Based on this judgment, Mark finally discovered that there was something fishy about Bing Ling in the reception room.

At first glance, this splendid reception room is absolutely beautiful, with a luxury that is almost unique to the Baroque style.

But if you look carefully through the ice edges, you can find that many pieces of furniture are actually broken and have been repaired more than once. Interestingly, the broken parts were replaced not with gold, or even gold plating, but with shiny brass.

Normally, this thing cannot be hidden from knowledgeable nobles and big shots. In order to deceive others, the character of the Ice and Snow Saint was specially used to create signs of spiritual power overflow, covering up the financial embarrassment.

Having said that, it is not normal for the dignified princess of the empire to stay in such a borderland of the empire for no reason.

However, Mark had no intention of revealing that she was.

In the vision of destiny, behind the imperial eldest princess, there is a thick black thief of destiny that represents disillusionment, and more than one thread of destiny is dark black. It is a pile of black threads of destiny wrapped around the princess in a messy manner.

It seems that there is a shocking series of huge pits hidden within Bill's empire!

Mark didn't feel it, he didn't intend to wade into this muddy water.

Change the ship and run!

The policy is very simple, see through it but don’t tell it off.

Next to Mark, Knight Commander Hank took half a step forward and introduced in a loud voice: "My Lord is the grandson of the current Cardinal Destiny of the Church of Light and Night, a once-in-a-century genius opera writer, a distinguished guest of the music goddess Muse, Vamp The savior of the province, the order officer of the Kingdom of Boliva, the crusader of the sinful priests, the conqueror of the Knights of the Apocalypse, and the ally of the Twin Goddess - His Excellency Mark Destiny!"

"hiss!"

There were no less than ten people in the room on the Bill Empire side at this time, and they were all gasping in unison.

In this world, the roll call of the etiquette officer, which is the self-introduction to one's own side, is a very particular ceremony.

Every big shot wants to give himself a shocking and resounding name.

One should not add names indiscriminately. Once it is discovered that the name is not worthy of the name, it will not only attract ridicule, but may even cause serious diplomatic problems and even the anger of the gods.

The rules for raising names are usually based on family background first, and then the names are increased one by one from light to heavy.

Originally, the bloodline of Cardinal Guangming was very important. Even if he was not a direct lineage, he was still equal to the count of the empire. It was barely acceptable for the eldest princess to receive him.

Being an opera writer inherently has a bonus and is an important feature for nobles to distinguish someone from a 'barbarian'.

And the actual results described next are more terrifying than the last.

Saving a province, suppressing the rebellion of a kingdom, and even massacring the Sins and the Apocalypse Sect, is this what humans do?

Could Mark be a liar?

The four apocalyptic horses pulling the cart cannot fool anyone.

If someone else did this, wouldn't they be killed by the Knights of the Apocalypse, and even their souls would be dragged to the bottomless abyss to be tortured?

With this scene, the Emperor of the Empire would be so frightened that he would be paralyzed!

Precisely because of the unequal intelligence, the eldest princess and her staff initially thought that Mark had just picked up a big figure from a large sect of a demon general somewhere, but now it seems that it is too light! So much lighter!

She should be the one to greet Mark at the dock.

In fact, Anastasia was frightened by the carriage when Mark got off the boat. In order not to lose face to the Empire and the Snow Goddess Cult, she held on. After all, she had not gone to the dock to pick her up, so she ran off at this time. She lost her composure. , secondly she lost face, and when she turned around she would be attacked by her political opponents.

Regardless of her royal status, the Ice and Snow Goddess Sect has a thousand-year reputation that is comparable to that of the entire orthodox church. It refuses to obey anyone. This ethos alone forces her to fight to the death.

After Hank's introduction, Mark smiled lightly: "I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess. Let me introduce to Your Highness, this is..."

Anastasia became more and more frightened as she listened.

Because someone and the Wright Empire deliberately obscured the news that Marianne might become an [abnormality], at this moment Marianne is still the noble third princess of the empire.

Then, existences such as Rosalind and Count Fernandez's daughter once again pushed Mark's status to a high point.

The eldest princess still smiled and greeted every noble lady calmly.

"On behalf of the Bill Empire, thank you for your bravery."

In Destiny Vision, Mark clearly saw that the eldest princess was already sitting like a duck, kneeling on the ground. She was so frightened that she burst into tears.

Fortunately, Mark didn't intend to get involved with her.

"We are here purely because we need to modify my cruise ship at the Chkalov Shipyard to make it more suitable for the ice ocean environment. It may disturb His Highness for two months, but as soon as the modification is completed, we will leave immediately."

"Won't you stay a little longer? The people here and I will be happy to entertain the great hero who saved the port of Austin."

"No, I have more important things to do."

"That's really a pity." The eldest princess continued to be polite to Mark for another 10 minutes. Seeing that the conversation was almost over, she clapped her hands gently and let the waiter receive a pile of thank you gifts: "Bill's empire will never treat heroes badly. These are It’s a small thing, please accept it.”

The first one was a very good-looking cross sword. This sword was probably blessed by the goddess of ice and snow. In terms of grade, it was probably equivalent to Mark's [Night Owl].

The next few trays contained some extraordinary objects of high grade.

In the middle section, there are several fur coats with secret techniques to resist the cold, which look quite warm at first glance.

At the end was a large box carried up by several waiters. Once the lid was opened, it was filled with gold bars of 20 kilograms each.

For a moment, Mark almost thought that he had run into a wealthy businessman and that he would not kill him until he killed him. But when his hand touched the cross sword, the eldest princess in the vision of destiny beat her chest; when he turned his attention to those gold bars, her highness the eldest princess was about to cry without tears.

Mark even foresaw that several threads of fate on the princess' body suddenly turned black.

Originally, the destiny of this unlucky princess was at best 30-70, but after taking the gold bar, it immediately opened 19-10.

have to!

I bet this is all the private money of this glamorous princess, it is her lifeblood!

She is the one who wants to save face and suffer the consequences!

Mark almost wanted to laugh like a pig.

In front of everyone, Mark shook his head at the cross sword: "The extraordinary sword with ice and snow attributes is not in my destiny."

He did not walk towards other extraordinary objects, nor did he approach the gold bars. He just walked up to the white fur coat and said with a very interested look: "Helena, Rosalin, you guys, come here."

The two girls passed over obediently and watched happily as Mark picked up the snow-white fur coat, estimated the size, and then put it on them.

"Is it warm?"

"Warm!" the two women said in unison.

Mark smiled and turned his head: "Your Royal Highness, I am not very interested in money in this world. Among the extraordinary things here, I am interested in these fur coats. If you have to express your gratitude to me, this kind of fur coat Give me a few more pieces. Well, although I have already purchased a batch, my guards and servants also need a batch of warm clothes for mortals produced in the Bill Empire."

This time Anastasia and Natasha were really stunned.

That's right, they had already prepared for the worst, and being hit hard by Mark was already a trivial matter. After all, Mark helped her keep the foundation here.

Even in the eldest princess's fantasy, the worst thing is that on a dark and windy night, Mark approaches step by step, stretches out his claws, and smiles evilly: "Hey, kittens like you were born to be eaten by me. !”

When that happens, where will she go from here? Or do you want to fight to the death? Or how about a "meow" sound?

This is a serious problem.

Unexpectedly, Mark would be so generous and directly gave up collecting the reward, letting go of this opportunity that could bring her situation to the bottom.

She summoned Mark in such a hurry, and she also had the opportunity to avoid her political enemies coming to encourage Mark to demand a high price, because once Mark opened his mouth, due to the ethos of Bill's empire, she would have to knock out her teeth and swallow her blood if he really robbed her and bankrupted her.

The meeting ended in a friendly atmosphere.

Princess Anastasia looked at the retreating figures of Mark and others and was stunned. After a long time, she said quietly: "Natasha, it's not like he noticed my predicament, right?"

"He must have discovered it." The female knight sighed deeply: "Fortunately, he is a true gentleman and the most amazing hero."
