The so-called royal family had absolutely no need to be pretentious or use so-called etiquette to distance themselves from the people. Their spontaneity was one of the reasons the Giant Kingdom's royal family remained close to the people.

"Actually, this is a request, and it's a bit..."

"Since we are all the only Apple Pi, I will grant your request."

"..." Hebi paused, a drop of cold sweat appearing on his face.

But Farasha seemed not to notice, and seriously grabbed a piece of meat and bit it with great ferocity.

"As the Black Beast Knight Blaze's achievements grew, our faction betrayed him and joined the Black Beast Knight faction. They've been making ridiculous claims, claiming that the Skyfall will inevitably defeat the childhood sweetheart. This is a shameful betrayal! It's a blasphemy against the custom of the Giant Kingdom's Giens, where the people must marry their childhood sweethearts!"

"They clearly just admired the Black Beast Knight more, yet they took it upon themselves to tie Marika and the Black Beast Knight together, interfering in the relationship between a boy and a girl who grew up together! They turned the great knight into a despicable third party!"

"And you, Herbie Hermes, are my only remaining comrade. I will fulfill all your requests!"

In the past, Hebi would have ignored it and just given it a perfunctory response. But now, she knew that underneath the Black Beast Knight's shell was the Apple Boy that Farasha had mentioned.

Which means Audrey is indeed...

She would never betray Audrey, not even verbally. But in this situation, if she told the truth, she might be made into a dish.

"That's right! The Black Beast Knight should be with Lord Herbie!" Greenland and the Ripper suddenly appeared, and their two pairs of hands, which looked extremely dirty after emptying the trash can, made their appearance gestures behind Herbie.

what!

Herbie's eyes widened. Is there not a single ally here?

Noticing Herbie's expression, Greenland winked at her vigorously, conveying his thoughts. Foreigners are a group of people who will push forward as long as they feel they are having fun.

"You are worthy of being my only comrade-in-arms, and you are willing to sacrifice yourself! I originally thought that I would just marry the Black Beast Knight to resolve these rumors, but since you two are in love, I will leave without worry." Farasha slammed the table and pushed his lunch in front of Herbie.

"Then you must eat more and grow up quickly. We can't let the Black Beast Knight be stigmatized for attacking young children."

"I, you, he..." Hebi was at a loss for words, not knowing what to say. However, she still wanted to explain something seriously, "Princess, I'm older than you..."

"Hmm?" Farasha came closer seriously, and the soft thing like a mountain made Herbie's eyes twitch.

"Gu--let's get down to business. We want to head to Mimir's Spring."

Farasha frowned, as if he didn't expect this word to come out of Herbie's mouth.

"This is a royal secret. It seems you have really investigated us very carefully."

Farasha showed the suspicion and hostility that were unique to the royal family. The atmosphere turned cold, and the friendliness and joy just now seemed to be just a show.

After all, Farasha is the next crown prince and a rare Giaiens man who does not have a childhood sweetheart, so he is extremely meticulous and ruthless.

Greenland narrowed his eyes, and the Ripper's fingers traced a scalpel.

Facing the dangerous Farahsha, Herbie was extremely calm. In the past, she would have chosen to play tricks, but she has been changed a lot by Blaze. She has learned to be sincere, so she will sincerely use the right medicine to deceive.

"This is for the dwarven curse carried by the red dragon Marika."

"Go on." Farasha narrowed his eyes.

Hebi smiled confidently. "Red Dragon" was a title, symbolizing the absolute loyalty of the leader of the Royal Knights to the royal family. He was the current Lord of Fast, and Marika was an extremely important close friend of Farasha.

For both public and private reasons, Farahsha would put aside the barrier of Hebi using his tricks to find out the secrets of the royal family and listen carefully to what she said.

Chapter 318: Let’s spend money together

It is a well-known secret that the dwarves' bloodline is cursed and their wisdom is taken away.

But the fact that Marika has dwarven blood is a real secret.

Greenland and the Ripper opened their mouths wide, obviously shocked.

This is normal. Even Herbie thought the other party was joking when he learned about this.

Even though Marika has long, flame-like hair, few people associate this red hair with dwarves. This is because Marika is exceptionally tall, with long limbs and a beautiful figure, and she cannot be associated with the short, stout limbs of a dwarf.

"Malika wouldn't tell anyone about this. She told you, which shows she trusts you. So I forgive your crime of spying on the royal secrets, but whether you are allowed to enter Mimir's Spring depends on your subsequent explanation."

"Actually, it was Blaze who said that. Never mind..." Herbie waved his hand and was about to get to the point when Farasha suddenly stood up.

"What! Black Beast Knight said that! Could it be that Marika has already!"

Herbie covered her mouth. It was a bad habit of hers. Her mind worked quickly, but her mouth moved even faster. Of course, she had developed strong physical instincts to ensure that her words would be accurate and not cause any trouble.

But she obviously overestimated the degree to which Falasha, a Giaiens, kept his public and private lives separate.

The giant princess stood up and wiped her tears silently.

"I admit that the Black Beast Knight is a very good man, but I just can't accept the fact that Marika abandoned her childhood sweetheart. Blaze is so pitiful, wu——"

Herbie quickly stood on the table, reached out to comfort her, and finally managed to calm Farash down.

It's almost a custom among the Giaiens to marry their childhood sweetheart. As a result, the Giaiens have a strong belief in pure love, and are therefore extremely sensitive to infidelity.

There was even a rumor that the only way to defeat the unstoppable Giens army was to make their childhood friends change their hearts. But this was just a joke, because every Giens childhood friend would never give up their simple and clumsy partner.

Herbie had always thought it was just a joke, but today he was determined to see the real thing.

The second princess, Farasha, who had a cold look in her eyes before, now had red eyes and sniffled from time to time, looking like a little girl who had been wronged.

But this little girl is really big.

"Simply put, the god who cursed and robbed the dwarves of their wisdom has appeared, and is very likely to threaten all those associated with the dwarves. We don't know when we will be attacked, so we must be prepared in advance."

"Then what does this have to do with the Fountain of Mimir?" Farasha touched the corner of his eyes and said seriously.

"This is information from foreigners. The One-Eye also exists in their world, and the Fountain of Mimir is where the One-Eye obtains omniscience." Hebi was standing on the table, so she took a few steps to the side, allowing Greenland and the Ripper to appear in Farasha's sight.

"They even know the complete ritual for the One-Eye to attain omniscience."

The Ripper and Greenland, bewildered, put their hands on their hips, puffed out their chests, and looked smug. This kind of plot flow is fine to do whenever you hear someone praising or exclaiming.

"I know this is a bit unreasonable, but we're facing God, so we have to try no matter how small the possibility is. So I hope you can help me, please!"

Herbie bent down towards Farahsha. She didn't know whether Farahsha would agree, but when she heard a helpless sigh, she knew it was done.

"I understand. You are the benefactor of the Giant Kingdom and the greatest contributor to the defeat of the Nemean Giants. Giving you our trust and help is our reward."

Farash stood up, took a deep breath, and then showed a cold expression.

"The Giaiens' towering stature is meant to protect their companions. This remains true even if the opponent is a god."

"We will go to Mimir's Spring now, but it is an extremely dangerous place. We need to be prepared."

"Oh no." Greenland opened her warehouse. Her small coffers had been depleted after a few days of exploring the city. These props were not enough to face an unknown dungeon that she might only be able to enter once.

"Want me to give you some?"

The Ripper showed Greenland his warehouse. Greenland, who had entered expert mode, put aside all his previous emotions and moved forward.

"Here, and this, pass it to me. Oh, you have a few nice skeletons, give them to me too."

"You are taking advantage of the situation!"

"I found out you have this good stuff, and you still expect me to be a good person? Robbery! Give it to me!"

Seeing the two people fighting as if no one was around, Herbie had to use his advantage of standing on the table to separate them.

"We're not so urgent that we don't have time to resupply. We want to be absolutely sure this time, so you can take whatever you need for free."

"You can also go to the Royal Warehouse to see if there's anything you're looking for," Farash added. "This time, just like during the Giant War, we'll do our best to meet the needs of you strangers."

“…” Greenland suddenly calmed down, silently opened the blessing and performed the operation.

"What are you doing?" The Ripper grabbed Greenland's hand with a serious face.

He saw Greenland's fingers moving in a few directions, and it was obvious that he was entering the payment password!

"You bastard! You want to spend money to force the warehouse expansion? Just to get free items!"

Greenland turned his head, a smile full of greed and confusion appeared on his face.

"Don't stop me."

"No, I mean wait for me. It's more ceremonial to do this together."

"I don't ask to be born on the same day as you!" Greenland's eyes lit up and he raised his hand.

"I just hope we can spend the money together on the same day and year!" The Ripper immediately clapped his hands in tacit understanding.

Herbie and Farah remained indifferent. The Stranger had been acting strangely for a long time. Herbie missed Blaze so much because Blaze would be confused but join in the fun, which made the Stranger seem less strange.

Greenland and the Ripper decided to rob first... and go to the royal warehouse to pick out props. Greenland, in a good mood, started talking nonsense.

"Alas, even those geniuses are lazy."

"What do you mean?" The Ripper was confused.

"The Well of Mimir is clearly in the underground world of Jotunheim. They only used the setting of the Well of Mimir and didn't complete the background."

"Well, indeed."

Farasha, who was trying to make sure the strangers weren't so bold as to take away the national treasure, frowned.

"I don't know what you're talking about, but don't you know the name of the land where the Giant Kingdom was founded?"

"Uh..." Greenland scratched the back of his head awkwardly, "We only know that this continent is called Tartarus."

"The name of this land, which occupies one-third of the earth, is Jotunheim."

"..."

"SHIT! We seem to have learned some incredible information!"

After a brief silence, Greenland suddenly jumped up.

At the same time, a task prompt came into their sight.

World Quest: Meeting the Great Tree Part 8

Chapter 319 The Second World Props

[Special Mission: Hero's Background Story and Details]

At first, Blaze didn't understand the name of this mission, but after taking more than a dozen punches from Chiron without any ability to fight back, and finally seeing through Chiron's attack trajectory and successfully blocking the next punch, Blaze understood the true meaning of the name of this mission.

The adventures experienced by the heroes in the story will allow them to gain treasures and become more powerful.

The beginning of these stories is not the beginning of the hero's story. When the hero appears at the beginning of the story, they often have a background story of [learning from XX], telling the people who appreciate the story why the hero possesses those martial arts.

Almost all stories simply gloss over this background story.

This special mission is a training mission, a background story for acquiring the most essential qualities of a hero: martial arts. The word "details" in the mission means that there is no way to skip the long and arduous training, and you must improve yourself step by step.

Blaze could feel himself making progress, but it took two hours. Under other circumstances, he would have enjoyed it.

However, the threat of the second-generation One-Eye was always hanging over his head, making it impossible for him to calm down.

Chiron stopped moving, he analyzed Blaze's inner anxiety.

"Are you worried about time? Only through a large number of trivial failed calculations can we complete the true, perfect formula that can handle all problems."

Although Blaze didn't understand Chiron's words, he understood what Chiron meant.

The price of quick success is a lack of experience, like a tower standing upright, seemingly tall and strong, but vulnerable to disaster. But the accumulation of countless failures is a mountain, the same height as the tower, but indestructible.

"I'm sorry, I was distracted. The crisis of the second-generation One-Eye is imminent, so I can't calm down." Blaze sighed softly and said helplessly, "If only I could meet you sooner."

"You said you wanted a reward beyond the standard, so I will assume you'll choose the highest EX difficulty training mission. This project is estimated to take at least a year."

Chiron had even worse news.

"One year? Is there any way to shorten it a little?" Blaze's eyes twitched. After all, it was impossible for One-Eye to do nothing for a whole year.

"It can't be shortened, but there are countermeasures." Chiron pointed to the side and Blaze looked over.

But the chicken and Nessus were both gray and motionless.

"What's going on?" Blaze walked over and waved his hand in front of the chicken, but the chicken didn't react.

Chiron pressed his chest, and the thick armor opened to reveal a rotating gear structure.

"The World Item [Kronos Gear] is the core mechanism of the large-scale time interference device [Kronos] developed by the Age of Gods civilization. I activated this function to interfere with the speed of our time in this area."

"Since your intelligence isn't sufficient to understand, I'll explain this phenomenon as [relative deceleration]. We've entered a state of acceleration you can't comprehend. Two hours in the normal world is only about two seconds."

Blaze had no idea what Chiron was talking about, but he knew what world items were.
