Sitting on the carriage to Elena's family, Eli looked at Count Gremory with a resentful expression.

Earl Gremory was also a little embarrassed. After all, he and Eli had promised each other, so he could only apologize:

"This matter is indeed my fault, but don't worry, I only told the Marquis, and the Marquis has asked so, and I have nothing to do."

Count Gremory spread his hands: "Don't worry, you are safe."

"Thanks to you saving the marquis, capturing the earl, and reporting to the king, the earl's family was directly eliminated, and I heard that it was related to bigger things, and I don't know how many people were arrested.

No kidding, this time period should be the safest time in the city of Imperial King's Landing. "

A small bottle of potion caused the death of an unknown number of people, and the failure of an unknown number of people's plans.

"Don't worry, in order to protect you, the meeting with the Marquis this time is also a secret, and the benefits will definitely be indispensable, so don't worry."

Eli nodded, and didn't say anything else. After all, everything had already happened, and the advantages outweighed the disadvantages. The only disadvantage was that he was exposed.

However, this also reminds Eli that in the future, when he reaches enough levels, he must learn some curse or spiritual witchcraft to ensure that his identity will not be revealed.

Gremory was very chatty along the way, and it was obvious that he was very happy.

After asking, it turned out that it was because of the potion that Earl Gremory became the most respected Earl under the Marquis. He received strong support from the Marquis, and the power of the family expanded again.

As for Earl Monchi, he was temporarily refrigerated.

I'm afraid Earl Monchi would never have imagined that he had made so many preparations, but was unexpectedly defeated by Earl Gremory. What was even more sad was that Earl Gremory announced that the Marquis was healed by two pharmacists, which made Luo Mr. Uncle became depressed all of a sudden, and announced that he would never do anything again.

As for the monastery, it was heard that many poison-related courses had been added, and the students burst into tears.

Poor medical student.

...

The carriage was fast, but it didn't follow the previous path, but entered through the back door.

Eli and the others were guided all the way, and finally Eli saw Marquis Elena in a room.

At this time, Marquis Elena's condition is much better, but the white hair on her head has increased a lot, but fortunately, she looks very energetic and her eyes are bright.

It is hard to imagine that a month ago, the marquis almost died of poisoning.

"Master Marquis, I brought you here, so I will leave first."

After delivering Eli, Gremory turned and left the room, leaving the two of them a private space.

Eli wasn't worried either. After all, the distance between him and the Marquis was only a few meters. If something happened, the distance would be enough for him to kill or kidnap the Marquis.

But that possibility is less than one in a thousand. After all, no one would lose a Marquis for him. He is just an ordinary librarian.

The Marquis looked at Eli with a smile. Maybe he never thought that in just a few seconds, Eli had even figured out how to hijack him and escape.

"Ahem, this time I'm going to line up Earl Gremory for two things, one is about the potion I drank, and the other is the reward for you." Marquis Elena said.

It really is medicine? Eli was a little helpless, it seemed that the Marquis was very interested in potions.

"I want to ask, do you still remember the person you bought the potion from? Can you describe it to me?" Count Elena looked at Eli enthusiastically.

?

? ?

Don't ask about medicines, ask about people, what's the point, but I just made up that person!

"Uh, that man, wearing a black robe, with bright eyes, looks very old, with a lot of wrinkles on his face..." Eli began to make up in a serious manner.

"Hmm." The Marquis listened seriously, nodding his head repeatedly.

Eli also didn't understand why the Marquis would be so interested in a person.

"Lord Marquis, it's convenient to ask why you are so interested in that person." After describing a popular face, Eli asked with a puzzled expression.

Marquis Elena shook her head, hesitated and said, "I suspect that the bottle of potion you bought is not simple. This is a real secret, but you saved me, so I can tell you about it."

"Do you know when the empire was established?"

"Of course, the empire was established three hundred years ago." Eli nodded, and he was naturally very clear about these things.

"Then do you know the name of the first king of the empire?" Marquis Elena asked again.

"The name of the first king, Merlin I, is..." Suddenly, Eli realized that he didn't know the king's name at all, and he didn't know the name of the king in his memory at all. Not recorded.

"Hmph, I don't know." Marquis Irene smiled, as if he was happy that he stumped Eli, a scholar.

Eli nodded. Judging from what the Marquis said, he felt that what he was about to hear next might be a big secret.

"You know what?" Eli asked.

"Um." The Marquis' tone faltered, he stroked his beard, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I don't know either."

Okay, then you spent half a day playing charades here!

The Marquis might also feel awkward, and continued: "However, I'm sure that this king came from another place, and it's not simple. He established such a large country in just ten years, and As far as I know, every one of his subordinates is extremely loyal, which is simply outrageous."

It may have been said a lot, the earl picked up a glass of water from the side, took two sips, and Eli sat quietly opposite, he wanted to know what the marquis wanted to say?

And he faintly felt that it might have something to do with him.

"Well, what's more, after the establishment of the country, the king did not expand outwards, but stopped, but did not develop. He just kept sending people to various places, as if searching for something?"

What are you looking for?

Eli's eyes moved, and he remembered the title page in Salin Metatlin's notebook, the last sentence on it was.

Not sure if I've found it or not?

Moreover, after removing two characters from Salin Metatrin's surname, it happened to be Merlin. Combined with the king's story, it was hard not to remind him of it.

"Of course, this is not the subject. The reason why I am so interested in that person is because I have seen your potion before. It was rewarded by the king when I was a child. At that time, the king was Merlin I. That's why I wondered who it was."

Elena spoke calmly, as if she was nostalgic for the past.

But what he didn't know was that there was a turmoil in Eli's heart. The basic antidote is a real extraordinary potion, and it is impossible to concoct it without magic power. Doesn't this mean that Merlin I is a wizard?

Or could it be that Salin Metatlin is actually Merlin I?

Founding a nation, just looking for one thing?

Eli felt as if he had discovered something big.

However, Eli still has a question in his mind. If Salin Metatlin is really Merlin I, then where did he come from, or in fact, there should be a way to reach the wizard's territory.

These are questions for Eli.

"But don't worry, you can collect these things slowly." Eli shook his head, even if he knew what to do, he still took his time.

These are just his guesses.

"It's really amazing. I always feel that apart from knights, there should be other powers in the world. It may be outside this area, outside the endless sea, and outside the surrounding countries." Marquis Elena shook Shaking his head, he sighed.

"I have seen some monsters, their strength is incomparable even to the big knights, I was thinking, maybe there are more powerful ones, maybe the man in the black robe is that kind of person."

"It's a pity that I will never see them in my life!"

Marquis Irene let out a long sigh, and fell into melancholy, while Eli was sure that the Marquis really didn't know the existence of wizards. It seems that there should be no wizards in the kingdom at present.

"Forget it, let's talk about your reward for saving me."

After a few minutes of melancholy, Marquis Elena looked at Eli seriously.

Eli sat up, too.

Instead of worrying about the information that is missing or even uncertain, it is better to care about the rewards that the Marquis gave him.
