The Hero Who Troubles the Heroes
v3 Chapter 620: God's windfall
The atmosphere in Cesaro Town was a bit panicky today. The news of the Forbidden Spell near the town last night spread within less than a single breakfast.
The town has been sealed off, and everyone is prohibited from entering and leaving, and teams of griffin knights from the royal capital Qiqiucheng are hovering in the air.
Marquis Luccarelli had already arrived at the scene of the incident by taking the griffin that had come to pick him up on the way, and a group of court mages were there checking every inch of the land with a serious expression.
The only valuable things at the scene were the horse with the severed neck in the eye of the wind, and the abandoned carriage.
Marquis Lucarelli's face was gloomy, and in front of him was an empty burlap sack, which smelled of mosquito repellent smoke unique to the city of Messina.
At this time, a court mage hurried over and said excitedly to Marquis Lucarelli: "Lord Marquis, we have made a new discovery over there!"
At the same time, the mage handed a piece of golden ore to Marquis Lucarelli.

Charles and Ada, who walked out of the Magic Communication Bureau in Cesaro Town, didn't know that the tornado they created last night blew a vein of mine. Charles stretched after sending a coded message to the house, and then Decided to visit this town, take a rest tonight and leave for Catania tomorrow.
Although the town is closed, life has to go on, and businesses on the streets are still open for business.
This is the overland hub of Messina and Catania, where caravans exhausted from walking in the mountains will rest for a few days, making the catering and service industries more developed here.
Apples and honey are abundant here, and you can smell the fragrance of apples when you walk on the commercial street.
Apples are delicious, but the traffic in this place is somewhat inconvenient and transportation is difficult, so most of the apples are made into canned apples or honey applesauce that are easy to store for a long time.
On the commercial street, there are some more distinctive ways to eat.
Some merchants dug the apples from the top, poured in a little cheap wine and cheap honey, and put them in the oven to bake. The aroma made Charles stop.
The scent wafted out of a shop like a coffee shop or a teahouse, but the sign of the shop made Charles almost think that Jobs had also crossed over here.
The first floor of the store is a retail counter, and the second floor is a place for customers to sit down, enjoy dim sum, tea, and chat.
Charles came to the second floor, found a corner seat and sat down, then silently watched Ada sit down opposite him, and then put her broom and body against the wall.
The waiter came over with the veneer menu. Charles took a look at the menu. There were many varieties, so he said to the waiter, "I want a pot of tea, and two of each of the other desserts. The baked apple is served first."
Then he took out a silver dinar coin and threw it to the waiter, saying, "No need to look for it."
The waiter looked at Charles with a little contempt. One dinar was equivalent to one hundred copper plates, and the price of these snacks and tea was ninety-nine copper plates in total.
The honey apple tea and roasted apples were quickly served, and Charles poured Ada a cup of tea, pushed the saucer with the roasted apples in front of her, and said, "I'll treat you today, let's eat it. ."
Charles finished speaking and took a spoon to taste the baked apple, ignoring Ada, who was sitting across from him.
Ada popped up again this morning after leaving last night and followed Charles.
The baked apple is sweet with a little sour taste, and tastes good. Charles ate it while thinking about things, and quickly finished his portion.
At this time, Ada was only halfway through eating, and when she looked up, she found that Charles was looking at her thoughtfully.
Ada dug a spoonful of baked apples, stretched it out in front of Charles, and said with a smile, "Come on, open your mouth..."
Charles shook his head.
Ada said "hehe" twice, and continued to say with a smile: "Don't be shy... No one will notice us..."
Only then did Charles realize that magic had been arranged around him, and the waiter with a tray full of snacks was standing not far from them, as if he had forgotten what he was doing.
He released some magical power to destroy the magic, and the waiter quickly recovered and brought over the dessert that Charles had just ordered.
After the waiter left, the magic reappeared.
The dim sum in this shop are not big, but they are beautiful and seem to appeal to young female customers.
A cupcake-sized piece of apple cake is studded with a flower carved from an apple and drizzled with some honey.
In Ada's hand, a knife made of wind elements appeared and cut the cake into quarters. The knife then turned into a fork. She forked the cake and opened her mouth to taste it carefully.
Charles picked up an apple-filled pie and asked Ada, "Have you been traveling since the last big war?"
Ada's face turned cloudy in an instant, and she said with some displeasure: "I buried him before I left after he died."
Charles realized that he had stepped on a landmine at this time. After drinking a sip of tea and sending the pie from his mouth, he changed the subject, "Have you seen Philip and the others before?"
As a result, Ada's face was even more ugly, not cloudy and overcast, but turned into... resentment.
Ada stared at a small applesauce sandwich on the table for a long time without speaking, then she picked it up and put it in her mouth and chewed it hard.
Charles didn't expect that the spirit would choke when he eats. He saw that Freya had eaten so much before and it was fine. He refilled Ada's cup with tea, and then held it up in the wizard's hand for her to drink.
Ada patted her chest, and the two "Annapurna Peaks" shook, and it took a while to recover.
She was a little lost~lightnovelpub.net~ and said helplessly: "Don't mention the past."
After coming over for a while, Ada regained her mood and asked, "I heard about you, do you need my help?"
Charles asked, "How are you going to help me?"
Ada said seriously: "You have seen the effect of our cooperation last night, you only need to accumulate enough faith, when your enemy returns to Qiqiu City, we can join hands to combine that city with yours. Enemies are reduced to nothing."
Charles' face darkened and he said, "I'm not a murderer."
Then he waved his hand, and all his snacks on the table were put into the storage ring, then stood up and said, "Goodbye."
After that, Charles turned around and walked towards the stairs.
As he walked out of the shop, Ada suddenly appeared beside him.
Ada held a broom in one hand, and stretched out the other hand to embrace Charles' arm, pressing her whole body up, and then said happily, "Yes, as expected of the person I fancy."
