Dorothy's Forbidden Tome

"Besides, being selected by such a rare opportunity will be of great benefit to my future studies. The organization of this study tour is Guanda University, and my future goal is to be admitted to Guanda University. Participate more in such activities." If the event makes a deep impression on me at Guanda University, maybe I can be recommended directly in the future.”

Dorothy said this to Greg, Greg's eyes immediately lit up when he heard about the possibility of recommending Guan Da.

"Guaranteed? Also, does it mean to go in directly? Is there such a good thing!?"

Greg raised his eyebrows and said that his biggest wish now is to see his sister successfully enter the university, and now Dorothy suddenly has the possibility of being admitted to one of the top universities in the country. His mood lifted.

"Of course, if you don't believe me, you can read this. This is a letter from Guanda."

As she said that, Dorothy took out an envelope from the bag beside her and handed it to Greg. On the somewhat damaged sealing wax, the envelope was stamped with the school emblem with a crown.

With a look of expectation, Greg took the envelope, and then took out the letter paper inside and began to read it. When he saw the seal of the crown on the letter paper, Greg's originally worried heart gradually calmed down. And Dorothy on the side couldn't help showing a smile after seeing Greg's happy expression when he read the letter.

She knew that her brother's side was finally settled.

......

Not long after, Dorothy and Greg finished their meal, and after chatting for a while, Dorothy said goodbye to her brother again, and then set foot on the road back to Greenshade Town.

In the carriage of the moving carriage, Dorothy looked at the bustling crowd outside the window, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Finally, the matter on Greg's side has been settled, and the next thing... is to wait for the time to leave."

Sitting on the seat of the carriage, Dorothy couldn't help murmuring that what she was doing just now was the final preparation before the trip, and persuaded Greg.

Ever since Dorothy knew that in the hands of the spider-tooth priest, she was holding the bird corpse puppet with the incomplete spiritual thread link, and had the possibility of finding herself through this incomplete spiritual thread. In order not to leave hidden dangers, Dorothy Immediately, she began to think about how to break this spirit thread, and finally she came up with a method to run a long enough distance, and forcefully tear off this spirit thread with a length far beyond the control range.

After thinking of this method, Dorothy immediately decided on the travel plan for the next year, and then began to think about where to go for this long-distance trip.

At this time, Dorothy received continuous contact from Nephness and Vanya, and found out that the two of them also had plans to travel after the next year.

Neveu is going to participate in the study tour organized by the school, and Vanya needs to go on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land because of her promotion. Both of them will also go abroad. After calculating the destinations of the two of them, Dorothy also Immediately decided where he was going, and that was Iviga.

According to the communication in the past few days, Dorothy knew that the first main target of Nephness's study tour was the famous water city of Adria in Ivig, where they were going to participate in an exhibition of cultural relics. Vanya needed Go to the Rachel Valley in Ivig, which is said to be one of the holy places of the Church's Notre Dame, and her promotion requires a pilgrimage there.

Although the specific destinations of Vanya and Nephness are different, the big goal is Ivig, so Dorothy also naturally set her travel goal there, so that they go together all the way, everyone There is at least a link between them.

"Yvig... In the hidden history, it doesn't seem to be a peaceful country."

Sitting in the carriage, Dorothy murmured to herself, and at the same time, a lot of information about Evigor began to emerge in her heart.

Iwig is a peninsula country located on the south-west side of the main continent, above the Sea of ​​Conquest. Among the many countries along the Sea of ​​Conquest, Igvi is a very important one, and it is one of the trade centers around the Sea of ​​Conquest.

In the history books that Dorothy read, Iviga had several civil wars and wars with neighboring countries. The most famous war happened more than 400 years ago, when Iviga was in the "Pride King" Under the leadership of Leo, he invaded the northern Guardian countries, which aroused the anger of the Holy See. Under the call of the Holy See, the Guardian countries and some countries across the sea from Igwi responded and sent troops to invade together. Igwig, this is a retribution war above the history of Igwig.

Of course, this is what is said in the mundane history book. Dorothy once read the secret history version of this war in the secret biography "Faith and Sacredness" given by Misha. In the book "Faith and Sacredness" Among them, the author explained that the essence of this war was because Iviga publicly believed in the deep snake at that time, which angered Sheng Linshan. Killed all heresies on Ivig.

'If the statement in "Faith and Sacredness" is true, then Iviga is a country that has been deeply involved with the Afterbirth Sea Abyss Sect and the church in history, just like Prieter, there are many churches that are unwilling to Published black history.

'Although there is a dark history, after all, more than 400 years have passed. This kind of hidden turmoil should have subsided long ago. I read the newspapers. No problem, it just so happens that there are quite a lot of places to play there."

Chapter 380 Set Sail

With her legs crossed, Dorothy sat in the carriage, thinking happily that she had just finished her promotion. At this time, she was not in a hurry to think about Chi Chengjie's promotion preparations, but was very serious about going out for a trip. For a while, relax, after all, she doesn't want to be a promotion robot.

In order to persuade Greg to agree to go on a trip by herself, Dorothy specially paid a hundred pounds for labor costs, and asked Beverly to use her identity as the agent of Guan University to get herself an official letter. Dorothy can have a good reason to travel. After all, Dorothy still has a guardian. Before the child is going to travel far, he still needs to make things clear to his parents.

Now, everything is ready, and in a few days it will be time for Neveu and the others to leave, and Dorothy is also looking forward to that day.

"By the way... before leaving, some necessary greetings are still required."

Suddenly, Dorothy in the carriage seemed to remember something, and took out her own "Wen Hai Hang Zhi".

......

"Hey~ You said you were going to leave Tivian for a while? Ms. Detective......"

In a private room of a bar somewhere in Dongcheng District, Adele, who was wearing a camouflaged casual dress, was shaking the red wine glass in her hand while talking to Dorothy who was sitting next to her. Uncomfortably twisting his body, he opened his mouth.

"Well... yes, because of some things in the association, I need to go on a business trip for a while, so I would like to inform you that I am not here recently. If there is a conflict with the Wolf Blood Society, you'd better Be careful and don't act rashly."

"That's it... Thank you, Miss Detective, for your special notice, but don't worry, due to the official suppression, all Tivian's associations, including the Wolf Blood Society, are now doing their best. There will be no movement~"

While talking, Adele stroked Dorothy's silver-white hair, and there was a subtle look in her squinted eyes.

'What do you mean by thanking me for coming here in person...I originally just wanted to write a text to tell you casually, but you said that you have important matters to discuss in person. you drink!'

Her cheeks were slightly red, and Dorothy, who was being leaned on by Adele, tried hard to restrain her beating heart, thinking that if it wasn't for Adele's great help on New Year's Eve, she actually didn't really want to come.

Dorothy was leaned on by Adele at close range. Normally, when she touched Adele with a corpse puppet, she could be calm and composed, but now she was obviously overwhelmed by using the main body. After she couldn't bear it any longer, she planned to stand up and speak.

"I, I'll sit across from you and let's continue talking..."

"No need to sit across from such a long distance...Come on, let's drink." Just as Dorothy was about to get up, Adele put her hand on Dorothy's shoulder and pressed it lightly. Pushed her back to the seat, then picked up another glass of red wine and handed it to Dorothy, Dorothy couldn't help but speak anxiously.

"Don't! I'm only 13 and can't drink!"

"Huh? Are you really 13 years old? It's not some old guy pretending to be young...If that's the case, there's nothing you can do about it." Adele said in surprise after hearing Dorothy's words , and then put the wine glass back on the table with a hint of disappointment, Dorothy at the side looked at it and breathed a sigh of relief.

"To tell you the truth, if it wasn't for a lot of things recently, I also want to do a tour to travel around the world and travel around. It just so happens that there will be some exhibitions in the future that I am very interested in."

After taking another sip of wine, Adele continued to speak with a trace of regret, and a trace of doubt appeared in Dorothy's eyes.

"Exhibition? Do you mean the antiquities exhibition in Adria next month?"

"Ah, that scene, I've heard of that scene, but as a dancer, I'm actually not that interested in cultural relics. What I'm more interested in is this..."

While talking, Adele took out a fashion magazine from her small bag and opened it, finally turning to a page.

On the black and white magazine, it was printed as a middle-aged man with two mustaches and neat clothes. At this time, there was a big title under his profile picture.

"The most beautiful sapphire in history - Heart of Deep Blue will be on display for the first time on the cruise ship Shining White Pearl starting on January 25th. The famous jewelry collector, Mr. Massimo Russo will show it to the world on the sea His favorite collection!"

"The most beautiful sapphire ever..."

Seeing the contents of the magazine displayed by Adele, Dorothy couldn't help muttering.

......

Time flies, and soon, another week or so passed, and the day of Dorothy's departure finally arrived. After dealing with all the affairs of Tivian, Dorothy was in the port area of ​​East Tivian, Embark on a cruise ship.

Under the gray sky, on the endless ocean, a white medium-sized passenger ship was moving forward with black smoke, leaving a long white trail on the sea.

On the deck of the passenger ship, the sea wind whizzed past, few passengers stayed on the deck against the sea wind, and among them was a group of young men and women led by an old man.

"We are now in the middle of the Prieter Strait. Seven years ago in 220, our frigate encountered the first Fleet, the main force of Falaro, in the waters near here. The main force of the navy arrived, and a fierce naval battle broke out between the two sides here..."

In the sea breeze, an old man with glasses and a scholarly look told the history of the past to the young men and women in different clothes in front of him, and those young men and women were also listening intently, and some of them were also concentrating on doing notes.

On the other side of the deck, Dorothy, who was wearing a black cotton dress with her hair tied up and a cap on her head, was leaning on the railing while looking at the live lecture in the distance with great interest. the scene.

After a long period of time, the on-site open class on the deck was finally over. In the words of the old professor, the group of young men and women scattered one after another, each went to different places, some returned In the cabin, some continued to stay on the deck.

And one of them walked to Dorothy's side calmly, and that was Nephness who was wearing a windbreaker.

"Phew... it's the end of the lecture. Listening to the class with the sea breeze blowing is not only freezing, but I almost didn't hear clearly."

Coming to Dorothy's side, Nephness complained a little, but Dorothy answered with a smile.

"Well, it can be seen that it is a different experience, and it can also be seen that your professor is in good health."

"Yes, Professor John, although he looks older, his energy is not much less than that of young people."

Nephness said so, then she looked at Dorothy and moved a little closer, looked around and spoke in a low voice.

"But having said that, I didn't expect Miss Dorothy that you not only agreed to my request for a study tour, but even came here together... Are you... are you going to perform some secret mission of the association somewhere else?"

Nephness said to Dorothy mysteriously, and Dorothy couldn't help responding with a smile after listening.

"There is no task, you think too much, I just want to travel and relax when I come out this time, there is no task."

"Is it just a trip to relax? That's it..."

Listening to Dorothy's words, Nephness spoke thoughtfully, and just as she was about to continue to say something, suddenly a big wave hit the passenger ship, and the entire ship was instantly There was a violent shaking.

Since Dorothy was observing the sea conditions while chatting, she grasped the railing ahead of time when the big waves were coming, so nothing happened when the ship shook, while Neveu on the other side almost fell due to imbalance , finally grasped the railing and balanced over.

Afterwards, Nephness could not help complaining.

"Well... this ship is a bit small, too susceptible to wind and waves... I really want to hurry to the Port of Basel, where we can change to the Shining White Pearl, which is a big cruise ship what."

'Shiny White Pearl?'

Listening to Nephness's complaint, Dorothy couldn't help raising her eyebrows slightly.

Chapter 380: Cruise Ship

An ordinary passenger ship in Prieter Strait.

On the deck where the sea breeze was howling, Dorothy, who was leaning against the railing, frowned slightly after hearing Nephness's complaint, and then opened her mouth curiously.

"Shining White Pearl... I seem to have seen this ship in some magazines. It seems to be a cruise ship. Are you rich enough to take a cruise ship for your study tour?"

Dorothy spoke to Nephness, who responded directly.

"Of course, we are students of Holy Crown University, and the conditions at home are basically not bad. If we go on a long-distance trip, the school will naturally arrange some high-end transportation. The ordinary passenger ship we are sitting on now is only temporary. of."

Nephness said so, and Dorothy continued to respond.

"Even if the family conditions are good... it's not enough to go on a group cruise. This kind of cruise costs only ten or twenty pounds for the ticket. I remember that your three-month study tour fee is only 100 pounds." More than [-] pounds?"

Dorothy asked Nephness a little curiously, the cruise ship is obviously a luxury consumption, and it doesn't feel like the way of travel that would be chosen for a study tour. Generally speaking, it is better to take a passenger ship.

"Even if the family conditions are good, there is a difference between high and low. Miss Dorothy, many of my classmates were born in old Tivian nobles. With their identities and family backgrounds... They are not willing to take ordinary passenger ships with civilians. It is hard for them to travel such a long distance, so they paid more travel expenses to the school, and everyone paid hundreds of pounds more. More spare money to further improve the environment of our journey, I belong to the kind of joint benefit."

Nephness quietly said to Dorothy, while she was talking, she glanced at some classmates on the distant deck, many of them were the children of nobles, the kind of old Tivian Zhengfengqi .

"So, because of those guys' generosity, other people have also benefited. They are indeed rich...Even a study tour is a cruise ship. Is it for fun or to learn. "

Listening to Nephness's words, Dorothy couldn't help muttering, and Nephness also continued to answer.

"You can't say that, Miss Dorothy, it is said that the school arranged for us to take the Shining White Pearl. After departure on the 25th, there will be a grand exhibition on board. Maybe we can learn something from it. Oh something."

With a tone of anticipation, Nephness said this, her eyes shone with light, and Dorothy, who was on the side, couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth slightly after hearing Nephness's words. think in mind.

'You archaeologists trying to learn something at a jewelry show, huh...'

Dorothy complained so much in her heart, and she could see that this study tour was probably too much fun for quite a few people.

"It seems that after arriving in Barcelona, ​​I will also go on a cruise ship. I don't know what the jewelry exhibition that Adele is interested in will look like."

Looking at the turbulent sea beyond the railing, Dorothy thought to herself that her first journey at sea was coming to an end.

......

A few days ago, Dorothy, who had dealt with all the affairs, finally embarked on her own journey. Since Vanya’s purpose of going to Iviga was a pilgrimage, and there was a boat arranged by the church, it was inconvenient for Dorothy to go with her, so she First, I chose to leave with Nephness, and followed their study tour all the way to Evigor.

Two days after Dorothy left Tivian by boat, she felt the slight weakening of the spiritual thread linking herself, and Dorothy immediately confirmed that her theory was correct after feeling this. , I can rely on extending the distance to tear off the incomplete spiritual thread connected to the bird corpse doll.

Although after sailing for two days, Dorothy has already traveled a considerable distance, but under the spiritual blessing provided by the eight-pointed nest, the incomplete spiritual thread has only been weakened a little bit, and it is far from reaching If Dorothy wants to achieve her goal, she still needs to walk a longer distance.

"This incomplete spiritual thread has not been torn to such an extent. Presumably, Bajian must have provided a very sufficient 'cup' of spirituality to maintain it. I invested so much spirituality just to keep it so that I can deal with it in the future. It seems that they attach great importance to me, so this spirit thread will be broken even more.'

With such thoughts in mind, Dorothy strengthened her determination to go far away, and four days after she started traveling, a journey finally came to an end, and the ship she took arrived at the port city of Farano, Barcelona.

After the four-day journey on the boat, Dorothy finally set foot on the solid land again proudly. Since the destination was not Farraro, she didn't have much time to appreciate the exotic customs here.

Dorothy spent half a day to take a rough tour of this foreign port city. Although the time was short, she also had a lot of feelings.

Dorothy found that although it was still late winter, the weather in Farajo seemed to be warmer than that in Tivian. Decoration and sculpture seem to be more common, and there are many different styles. The art form of many sculptures is more daring, and the clothes of people in the upper class walking on the street are also more cumbersome and fancy. Compared with Tivian's gloomy, this The color tone of the port city of Farajo is more colorful.

What surprised Dorothy was that the restaurants in this foreign city tasted very good. Dorothy tasted delicious dishes here, such as cheese, truffle, beef, onion soup...etc. Dorothy was satisfied with the taste of many dishes. Overall, she felt that Farajo's dishes were better than Prieter's in terms of variety and taste.

Dorothy had studied Fararo language in the library of Guanda University before, and mastered the approximate pronunciation according to the phonetic symbols. Practice speaking.

Relying on the powerful learning ability of the Extraordinary of "Enlightenment", Dorothy began to learn the languages ​​of other countries by herself when she was in the Guanda Library. The main reason for this was to exchange for more dragon languages.

However, what Dorothy didn't expect was that after she had mastered a large part of the Falaro language, she exchanged it for new dragon language characters, but a language with no mysterious power from an unknown world. useless language.

Dorothy had successfully exchanged dragon language characters with Pulit and Lingyin before, but failed in Fararo language. Regarding this situation, Dorothy was also very confused for a while. After analysis, she possible conclusions were drawn.

That is, Farajo is too close to Pulit!

According to Dorothy's previous conclusions, including Pulit and Farajo, the languages ​​of the countries on the entire main continent are all evolved from the Imperial language branch, and they are all different languages ​​belonging to the same language family. , Therefore, although there are differences in language between Preet and Farajo, which are across the sea, they also have many similarities.

After Dorothy exchanged the Dragon language characters with Pulit, she had already consumed quite a lot of content in this language family. Therefore, the part of the content in Fararo that was shared with Pulit It cannot be exchanged again, so Dorothy did not have enough content when exchanging Fararao, and could not exchange for Dragon language characters.

On the other hand, since the Lingyin language of the New World is not a branch of the Imperial language, it is fundamentally different from the Puritic and Farano languages, and is an independent language family or even language family, so there is enough content for Dorothy to exchange dragon language.

Chapter 380: Cruise Ship

Unless there is enough non-repetitive content, it may be difficult for Dorothy to exchange other languages ​​under the imperial language family for dragon language.

After visiting Barcelona for half a day, Dorothy stayed in a hotel near the port. At noon the next day, she followed the instructions that she had bought a boat ticket and manipulated a corpse puppet in the image of a middle-aged man Her parents set off after saluting, and went to the predetermined location on the port, where she saw a behemoth moored there.

This is a huge cruise ship, at least twice the size of the passenger ship that Dorothy was on before. Dorothy stood under the huge ship and looked up and visually estimated that the length of the ship was about 200 meters. The height on board is more than 30 meters, the hull is black, and the superstructure on the deck is painted white, and there are three huge chimneys drilled out of the four-storey superstructure, quietly facing the sky.
