C194 A Gift
Only Riko and Vilhelmina were left on the deck of the HMS Determination. They leaned against the railing with their backs facing the huge mushroom cloud. Let an oil artist record the scene at this moment. Very soon, it would appear in most of the influential magazines and newspapers in Europe. It will send a very simple message to the world.
Aldran was no longer the same country as before.
In Riko's mind, there was a very strange thing. Magic allowed the Earth in this world to have the ability to print and transmit images on a large scale, but it did not develop the ability to record images. Therefore, the painter was no longer just a profession that created art. Instead, it had become an indispensable part of society.
Vilhelmina quietly glanced at Riko. Her silver ring-shaped hair reflected the sunlight. Her gentle gaze looked at the British flag at the head of the HMS Determination ship. The Queen clearly understood that this little girl would soon become the most important foundation to establish a country in Aldran. In the foreseeable future, the Aldran would be completely free from the threat of invasion. Because the shadow of destruction would envelop the entire continent of Europe under her existence.
Just like the Britain, which had just been freed from the rule of the elves and was still in ruins, because they had the support of Mage God Isaac, they were able to avoid the war in Europe during that period of time. When the other countries stopped the meaningless war, they finally started to develop themselves. When exploring the new continent, Britain was already far ahead of them.
After Isaac defeated Elven Empire and entered the Void, he had stayed on Earth for the past few hundred years. He had deterred the entire world. As a result, no foreign army had ever dared to step into Britain's territory without permission.
Even if a country's army was weak, its population was small, its power was weak, and the ruler was muddle-headed, as long as there was a Titled Devil Instructor who was strong enough to suppress everyone, it would never die.
Riko did not know what Vilhelmina was thinking, and she also did not realize that she was so powerful.
When the painter finished a simple draft and was in the midst of revising his painting, Vilhelmina had already pulled Riko into the lower deck of the HMS Determination.
In Riko's heart, the innocent Titled Devil Instructor was lying on a bed and still did not show any signs of waking up.
"Do you know where this person came from?"
The queen pointed at Roentgen and asked Riko.
"I don't know. He seems to be passing by..."
Riko gently shook her head. Her attention was quickly focused on the three-segmented wand beside Roentgen. Her palm gently swiped across the fist-sized Star Gem that was originally embedded at the top of the wand. And... The synthetic mithril that formed the wand's main body. The raw materials of these two wand were good stuff.
The Star Gem that could only be found in various magic metal mines had an extremely superior magical carrying capacity. Such a large gem could even be enchanted with a slightly weaker forbidden spell. As for the Mithril, it was even more difficult to obtain. It was a very light silver-white metal that would never appear in nature. The only way to obtain it was to find a way to get a few cartons of bauxite and then find a powerful Great Mage who knew alchemy to extract it. Just filtering required two rounds, and it also required a very complicated five-layered reaction. If this mage didn't make a single mistake, then he would be able to obtain a small piece of soft silver.
The soft characteristic made it an ideal runic array carrier. With the help of the Star Gem, this wand was at least superior to the raw materials.
Not to mention the densely drawn runes on its surface, as well as the perfect material that Riko could not pick out.
Before this wand was broken, it was still a product of the Grandmaster.
However, the Star Gem had lost its luster because of the magic impact. It had become an ordinary stone. This wand made of soft silver had also broken into three sections. The runic array definitely wouldn't be able to use it. The magical metal that had already been painted with runes and had been hardened on the surface could not be used for a second time. Therefore... It was almost scrapped.
"What a pity..."
Riko sighed softly.
"What is a pity?" Vilhelmina asked.
"The wand on his body looks very powerful. Of course, before it breaks..."
The queen nodded and looked at her empty hands. Riko who does not have any magic tools in her hands winked at her apologetically. "When you return to the country, I will contact the craftsmen to help you forge the wand. I'm sorry, I really can't do anything to a Master Alchemist. But it definitely won't be any worse than this one..."
"That's not what I meant!"
Riko hurriedly waved her hand in panic.
"Just let me prepare the wand myself. I simply feel that since this Titled Devil Instructor Mister who passed by brought such a thing with him, then he should be a very powerful person..."
Vilhelmina also realized this point. She frowned and realized that the matter was not simple.
"Wait, how far was this person from you when the explosion happened?"
"About 300 meters?" Riko tilted her head.
"What's wrong?" Riko asked doubtfully.
"It's a big problem. I really have to thank you this time. Not only me, the other two also have to thank you. "
" Why? "
Vilhelmina looked at the half-dead Roentgen, then turned her eyes back to Riko. "According to your estimation, what level of mage is needed to survive three hundred meters from the center of the explosion?"
"Level 7, as long as it is a slightly stronger Level 7 Titled Devil Instructor, it should be possible..."
"That is to say, there are four Level 7 and above Titled Devil Instructor in the alliance army. Sir Edinburgh is still guarding London. Sir Lang Zhiwan and Sir Pang Jia have never left the front line. The last one is you, who is standing in front of me. Furthermore, there is no high Titled Devil Instructor in Western Europe who has been living in seclusion for a long time. Then, this person who quietly approached the meeting place of the three alliance kings... What's the purpose?"
Riko tilted her head as if she understood, but she still felt puzzled in her heart.
"The answer is very simple."
Vilhelmina said with a smile.
"I think he is plotting something."
